My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Chapter 828: Chapter 252: Scrounging Again? (Please Subscribe)

The complete awakening of the Heavenly Dao was no trivial matter.

The complete awakening of the Heavenly Dao also meant that the Celestial Gods and the Western Buddhas would gradually reveal themselves.

Previously, Cheng Guang had come into contact with numerous figures of both the Celestial Gods and the Western Buddhas, but those encounters had been accidental or forced upon him.

Now, with the complete awakening of the Heavenly Dao, the Fate of the Heavenly Dao began to emerge. Therefore, those who sought to seize it would no longer lie dormant.

They would gradually reveal themselves.

They would deliberately expose themselves to the eyes of the world.

This moment of the Heavenly Dao’s resurgence was perfect timing for Cheng Guang.

Before, he had been wondering how he was going to snatch a share from the Celestial Gods and the Western Buddhas as required by the system task when they had not yet revealed themselves. He truly had no idea what to do.

But now, as the Heavenly Dao had resurged, both the Celestial Gods and the Western Buddhas would reveal themselves.

As long as they appeared, Erlang Shen, Yang Jian, would then have room to maneuver.

Cheng Guang still believed that with the skills of Erlang Shen, Yang Jian, it was unlikely for him to be completely controlled by the Celestial Gods and the Western Buddhas.

“If Erlang Shen, Yang Jian is even a bit clever, he can first gather information and lay hidden for a while, acting only after the figures of the Celestial Gods and the Western Buddhas are exposed,” Cheng Guang murmured to himself as he slightly lifted his gaze to the golden radiance at the far end of the sky.

Besides.

Even though Cheng Guang had left this matter to Erlang Shen, Yang Jian to handle, he had no intention of being entirely idle.

He needed to collect as much intelligence as possible.

The Heavenly Dao had resurged, and a major era had begun.

Even though Cheng Guang had already gained some advantages in this world, facing the Celestial Gods and the Western Buddhas, those ancient entities who had lived for many years, he still did not feel very confident.

The more preparations he could make, the better.

The more precautions he could take, the better.

Such actions were always correct.

Cheng Guang took a deep breath, and his eyes flickered with thoughts, as many complex ideas interwove incessantly in his mind.

…

At this very moment.

On the midsection of a certain high mountain.

The Heavenly Machine Elder and Jiang Luojing were walking along the mountainside.

They took their steps slowly while talking casually.

It had only been a short while since their last meeting.

Suddenly, several new figures had appeared beside the Heavenly Machine Elder and Jiang Luojing.

Following them, these new individuals looked different but clearly carried an extraordinary aura.

Despite walking together, there was little interaction between them.

They were mostly silent with each other.

When a rumble that shook the soul suddenly came from the distant sky, everyone’s footsteps synchronously halted.

All, including the Heavenly Machine Elder and Jiang Luojing, simultaneously cast their eyes toward the distant horizon.

They watched as the red afterglow in the sky began to flow like water, giving rise to strands of sparkling, resplendent golden radiance.

Feeling the golden radiance intensify, the Qi between heaven and earth also started to agitate uncontrollably.

Everyone’s cultivation level almost simultaneously fluctuated uncontrollably.

Only those like the Heavenly Machine Elder and Jiang Luojing, with their cultivation and strength having already reached an extremely high level, were able to maintain control.

Otherwise.

Merely because of the golden radiance enveloping the heavens and earth, and the agitated Qi between them, their cultivation levels could have instantly broken through one or even several minor realms.

“Is this…”

“Is this real?”

“Has it arrived so quickly?”

Gazing at the distant horizon, several people beside the Heavenly Machine Elder and Jiang Luojing expressed their disbelief with amazement.

Even though most among them were individuals who could maintain their composure even if Mount Tai were crashing down before them.

But.

Seeing the golden radiance on the distant horizon grow increasingly dense, they couldn’t help but show a bit of change in their expressions and even their voices became slightly hoarse.

The Heavenly Machine Elder used his aged eyes to survey the distance, then nodded slightly, “It should be time.”

“I didn’t expect that although I had calculated that the Heavenly Dao would awaken soon, I hadn’t thought that this moment would come so quickly.”

“But no matter, sooner or later, it is a good thing.”

“If that’s the case, we can advance our plan.”

“The being is about to awaken, we must hurry.”

The Heavenly Machine Elder spoke indifferently.

As the words of the Heavenly Machine Elder fell, no one around him objected.

They just nodded slightly.

The group continued to ascend the mountain.

Jiang Luojing’s footsteps suddenly paused, and her somewhat regal, bright eyes turned toward the Great Zhou Capital.

For some reason.

At this moment, Jiang Luojing suddenly found herself worried about the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir living in the Great Zhou Capital.

Now that a major era had dawned and chaos pervaded heaven and earth.

Even Jiang Luojing herself could not guarantee her safety, let alone that of the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir.

Then again…

The aura exuded by the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir…

Somewhat mysteriously resembled…

Master Xuanzang…

If it really was him, should his past life awaken, perhaps he would have the power to defend himself.
