CHAPTER 635: CHAPTER 400: STRUGGLE FOR AUTHORITY

They sensed a repulsion coming from Penglai Immortal Island, while also feeling a power trying to take control of the Four Symbols Pillars.

They naturally knew that today was the founding day of the Immortal Court, and the brilliant clouds and auspicious signs, with the qilin running about, were visible even from the four desolate extremes.

Not to mention, Hao Tian and the Turquoise Pool had previously visited them respectively.

They just didn’t expect that on the day of the Immortal Court’s founding, their own authority would be touched.

So it is.

Di Jun thought to himself.

However, he was not in a hurry to take action, believing in the strength of the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts and their control over their own authority.

In Di Jun’s eyes, this was not a significant matter, and there was no need to intervene.

One must know that the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts do not merely represent themselves, nor do they rely solely on cultivation realm.

At the same time, Di Jun also glanced at Buzhou Mountain.

In his eyes, Buzhou Mountain, originally shrouded in starlight, was now covered layer by layer with laws, destiny, cause and effect, and so on.

Exploring its roots, it also originated from Penglai Immortal Island.

However, since there were no creatures guarding Buzhou Mountain, the feedback was not intense, allowing the authority to slowly cover it.

The other Saints, seeing this scene, focused their eyes on Hao Tian and the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts.

Demon Ancestor Luo Hou watched the scene with interest, for such a struggle of authority was not often witnessed in the Primordial world.

Nuwa Saint looked calm, having confidence in the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts as well.

Lady Ping Xin and Emperor Fengdu were equally calm, as this matter did not concern them.

The Three Pure Ones and the Western Two Saints, seeing this scene, had a somewhat schadenfreude feeling in their hearts.

In the past, during the heaven-supporting events, they could not intervene and did not gain any merit.

Now witnessing such an occurrence, they were naturally pleased to see it.

However, they were very clear that there was no suspense in this battle for authority.

Even if the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts failed, there was still Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan.

The Four Symbols Pillars were one of the means by which the Heavenly Court continuously acquired merit; they did not believe Di Jun would easily let it slip to the Immortal Court.

Based on their past experiences, Di Jun intervening would leave no suspense.

Not just the Saints, but all other beings in the Immortal Court and even those across the Primordial Continent were witnessing this scene.

The Immortal Court confronting the four Great Sacred Beasts.

Hao Tian naturally felt the spread of authority reaching the Four Extremes of Primordial.

Likewise, he saw the appearance of the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts in the Primordial world and felt their gaze upon him.

This matter was unexpected to him, and in the Spiritual Illusion Realm, he had not experienced such a thing.

For a moment, he couldn’t help but recall what Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan had once told him in the Purple Cloud Palace, gaining a deeper understanding.

The Spiritual Illusion Realm is, after all, an illusion and not the real Primordial World.

The authority continued to spread, continuously impacting the Four Symbols Pillars, yet Hao Tian did not stop it.

Similarly, Hao Tian did not fan the flames to drive the authority to more aggressively seize control.

Not stopping it was because Hao Tian indeed wanted to control the Four Symbols Pillars of the Primordial Continent.

Controlling the Four Symbols Pillars would allow the Immortal Court to have an endless source of merit, transformed into the foundation of the Immortal Court, which would further facilitate some of his plans.

Not fanning the flames was not because he didn’t want to, but because he didn’t dare.

Because this place belongs to the Saints of the Demon Clan, with two of them present, and as many as six Quasi-Saints.

If he was careless, relying solely on these beings would be enough to annihilate the newly established Immortal Court.

Not stopping it at least still allowed space for explanation even if controlling the Four Symbols Pillars.

But if he were to fan the flames, even without having secured the Four Symbols Pillars, there would be no room for reconciliation.

He never underestimated the eyes of the Saints, knowing that if he made any moves, they would surely notice.

Of course, he also knew that his current approach was very dangerous; the best method might be to stop the spread of authority.

But the greed in his heart ultimately prevailed.

The enormous and endless merit was simply too tempting.

Especially as the Primordial World continued to expand, the Four Symbols Pillars played a crucial role.

He stood silently in the center of the hall, not speaking, waiting for the result of the authority’s spread.

The Four Symbols Sacred Beasts looked at Hao Tian, silent for a moment, as if understanding Hao Tian’s choice.

Azure Dragon Meng Zhang let out a dragon’s roar, twisting and turning, merging into the azure-green pillar.

Vermilion Bird Ling Guang spread its wings and cried, soaring with fire, entering the vermilion pillar.

White Tiger leaped in a roar, jumping into the golden-white pillar.

Xuanwu Zhi Ming howled towards the sky, moving with the water, entering the mysterious black pillar.

The actions of the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts were completed simultaneously, returning to their respective pillars.

As the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts each made their sound, the Twenty-Eight Star Constellations within the Celestial Heaven Star Formation in the Primordial starry sky seemed to respond.

The corresponding Azure Dragon Seven Constellations, White Tiger Seven Constellations, Vermilion Bird Seven Constellations, and Xuanwu Seven Stars, along with their numerous auxiliary stars, all lit up.

The Star Gods above the stars shook their Star Banners, driving the authority under their control.

Thick starlight, accompanied by Star Power, descended upon the Four Symbols Pillars.
