Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

Chapter 191 - 190: Du Ye Becomes an Envoy

“King Chaos is right. Without the correct method, it is indeed difficult to open the secret realm.” Bai Hongtu paced around the nameless island.

“To open the secret realm, you need to sacrifice three hundred adult men on a full moon night, using their blood and flesh as the key. The correct symbols must be drawn with these, only then it will be successful, and only the

Heavenly Kings know these symbols.”

Jiang Li looked up, a crescent moon night had just passed.

“But fortunately, I am in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, such tedious rules are useless to me.”

Bai Hongtu held a talisman in his two fingers. With no wind, the talisman rustled, Bai Hongtu’s whole persona changed, becoming ethereal, unfathomable. With his serious expression and handsome, refreshing appearance, he looked like an immortal from the saying ‘Touched by an immortal, receiving hair knot to gain eternal life’.

Very deceptive.

“What a good Daoist…” Jiang Li sighed.

“It’s a shame he opens his mouth.” Yu Yin pitched in.

The two high-fived with joy, showing they were of one mind.

The secret realm opened, and a bevy of young maidens appeared before the three men.

The young girls and women hadn’t seen anyone other than the Heavenly Kings in the secret realm, so they were very curious about the three men.

Especially Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin.

Bai Hongtu was elegant and suave while Yu Yin was pure and chaste, both were exceptionally good looking.

Jiang Li was also handsome, but was still not as good as Bai Hongtu.

Each time Bai Hongtu was beaten by Jiang Li, he would comfort himself by saying: Jiang Li is at higher cultivation level, it’s fair to look worse.

The three men ignored these women.

Jiang Li summoned the remaining six Heavenly Kings and lined them up neatly.

“King Chaos and the other six have been executed, now it’s your turn.”

The six trembled in fear. Jiang Li’s strength completely exceeded their comprehension.

“Sir, we serve under Envoy Du Ye, you should know Envoy Du Ye, perhaps you are also an emissary of the Respected God-hidden…” One of them, called King of Death, tried to find a glimmer of hope. He still believed that only those who hold the same status as the envoy could move freely across worlds.

“Respected God-hidden? It’s indeed a familiar name.” Jiang Li didn’t know

Envoy Du Ye, but he was very familiar with Respected God -hidden. Hearing Respected God-hidden’s name from these people’s mouths was surprising for Jiang Li.

He had asked brother Bu Jing, who said there were only twelve Heavenly Kings, and didn’t know how these kings appeared nor who was behind them.

It appeared to him that Envoy Du Ye was the man behind the twelve Heavenly Kings and was the unexpected guest mentioned in the system task, an extraterritorial devil.

“I am sort of a believer of the God-hidden Cult.” As the induction ceremony for the God-hidden Cult was almost complete, Jiang Li felt he could be considered a half believer of the Respected God-hidden.

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin exchanged glances, shock evident in their eyes.

Because the Vice Sect Hierarch of the God -hidden Cult caused the Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty to lose its capital, and even sacrificed nine million lives, Yu Yin definitely wanted to investigate thoroughly.

Venerable Mt. Sumeru was killed by Jiang Li, Bai Hongtu also investigated the

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin’s investigations centered on the God-hidden Cult and Respected God-hidden.

Of course, they hadn’t found out about the fact that killing after believing in Respected God-hidden can gain power of merit.

But Jiang Li had once asked the Immortal of Long Life if one could kill for merit after believing in a God, and Bai Hongtu was present.

Bai Hongtu thought the god that Jiang Li was talking about was Respected God-hidden.

However, he knew Jiang Li’s worries, that the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, so he didn’t tell anyone.

Yu Yin was confused, wondering how the Respected God-hidden of Jiuzhou would appear here.

Bai Hongtu understood, the God-hidden Cult was not from Jiuzhou, but from the side of the extraterritorial devils.

“So, you are Du Ye’s subordinates. It appears that I inadvertently thwarted Du Ye’s plan.” Jiang Li laughed, like he was an old friend of Envoy Du Ye, despite he heard the name just twenty seconds ago.

King of Death breathed a sigh of relief, since they were all believers of Respected God-hidden like the Envoy, he believed he could survive, assuming that the deaths of King Chaos and others were due to misunderstanding.

This could be understood. In front of such a powerful being, King Chaos and the others are like mortals. A wave of the being’s hand could kill them.

Perhaps King Chaos’ looks were so ugly that they displeased the being and led to his death.

“What did Du Ye order you to do?”

“We, the twelve of us, are originally natives of this world, and were chosen by Ambassador Du Ye because of our modest talents,” answered the Envoy.

In Bai Hongtu’s mind, when Du Ye said ‘modest talents’, he probably meant that they were a group of ungrateful creatures, capable of betraying the world without feeling any remorse.

“The ambassador stated he was an envoy from the Respected God-hidden, specially despatched to rescue us.”

“The ambassador bestowed upon us Immortal Pills, convincing us that by consuming these pills we would become divine beings. When I asked what is Divinity Transformation, the ambassador stated that it is a stage in the cultivation system, providing one with a lifespan of a thousand years.”

“In our world, dynasties change every two to three hundred years. Being able to live for a thousand years means we can witness the rise and fall of three or four dynasties, which is quite a lot.”

Jiang Li thought to himself that changes of dynasties every two to three hundred years is quite similar to ancient times in his previous life, moreover, living a thousand years is enough from the Song Dynasty to the modern era, it’s pretty long.

“The ambassador told us that to transcend from Divinity Transformation to the Body Integration Stage is extraordinarily difficult, impossible to achieve through regular means, thus necessitating unconventional methods.”

“The ambassador also said that the collective will of all beings hold infinite power, capable of defying logic, making the impossible possible.”

Jiang Li was aware of this fact. The power of faith is a manifestation of collective will, allowing every single Human Emperor, excluding himself, to temporarily reach a state of equilibrium with the Extraterritorial Demons.

If anyone frequently uses the power of faith, they would be assimilated by it and become the embodiment of all beings’ hopes.

This is a manifestation of the infinite power of collective will.

For instance, Luo Ying if he frequently uses the power of faith, he would truly become the Shadow King Buddha, the deity of zombie worship, that’s why Jiang Li did not want Luo Ying to use this method.

“The boundary between life and death holds great terror but also great willpower. The strength of will displayed by all beings in face of death surpasses their own comprehension.”

“Therefore, the ambassador suggested that we provide a direction for the population, becoming their faith. In doing so, we could “rain” apocalyptic disaster on the world, and as the population approaches death, they would pray to us, enabling us to transcend to the Body Integration Realm.”

Jiang Li’s brows furrowed slightly. This was something he had never heard before, yet it seemed logical.

If Ambassador Du Ye turned out to be an Extraterritorial Demon, this might be the reason they do not directly cause worldwide destruction.

They feared what might emerge from a creature’s will as it approached death, hence they utilized various indirect methods to cause worldwide destruction.

“Do you have any way to contact Du Ye?”

King of Death shook his head: “The ambassador’s wishes are as lofty as the sky, how could we possibly have the credentials to contact him? The ambassador said he would return to this world in a thousand years to witness our achievement.”

Jiang Li laughed coldly inside, what a load of crap about ‘witnessing achievement’. The truth is they want to use you to kill people in this world, then they will come and finish you off.

What a shame, if only he could lure out this Extraterritorial Demon named Du Ye, he could find out more about these creatures.

The Earth Demon level Extraterritorial Demon had no intelligence. If this Du Ye was a Heavenly Demon, then perhaps he was that old Buddha who misled everyone and left traps everywhere in Kyushu.

He hadn’t yet faced a Celestial-Level Extraterritorial Demon in combat, he was eager to test his skills.

Jiang Li flexed his fists, a slight grinding sound was emitted, expressing a hint of regret.

“Do you also believe in the Respected God -hidden?”

On hearing this, King of Death quickly responded, “Our cultivation is meagre, how could we possess the ability to know the affairs of the Respected God-hidden? We only know the name of the Respected God-hidden.”

A glimmer of hope arose in King of Death’s heart. Seeing that this power creature asked in that way, perhaps he could have the qualifications to believe in the Respected God -hidden and become an envoy like Ambassador Du Ye?

The rest of the five Kings had similar thoughts.

Because they had noble aspirations, their deaths were particularly miserable.

When there was no more information to extract, Yu Yin proceeded to kill the six of them.

Under the Yu Yin’s True Phoenix Immortal Flame, the six of them screamed to their deaths.

None of the twelve Kings were innocent. They caused a bloodbath in martial arts, causing countless innocent lives to suffer. Not to mention that in a few more years, they would have brought about apocalyptic disaster; only one out of ten individuals in the Ring Universe world would have survived.

Their deaths were well deserved!
