Chapter 863 - 88: Tread Lingxiao, Slay the Jade Emperor! (Part 3)

Totem King - Li Jing!

The moment this Divine Spirit’s apparition appeared, Duncan’s expression immediately changed, because he possessed the Dimension Space’s God’s perspective, seeing two vastly different Divine Spirit apparitions ultimately merging into one.

The first apparition was Li Jing, the God of War from the Sui and Tang dynasties, and a Great Grandmaster of the Military School, a skilled warrior without celebrated achievements, with Red Whisk, Tiger under the hall, Kunlun slave. Li Jing started being deified during the Late Tang Dynasty, and by the Five Dynasties, he had received worship with incense offerings, making the Taoists even honor him as a guardian deity.

The second apparition was the Buddhist deity Bishamonten, also known as the Heavenly King Virudhaka, whose faith originated during the Kushan Empire’s rule over Gandhara. He was a dignified guardian deity dressed in a blue-black seven-treasured war armor, with an angry and fearful expression, holding a pagoda in his hand.

Bishamonten was also the God of Wealth in Buddhism, and after merging with Li Jing, gradually replaced part of Zhao Gongming’s responsibilities.

This is the fusion of the persona of the Divine Spirit.

The Taoists, after surpassing the Buddhists, desired to consume Bishamonten’s faith and made him locally fused, eventually leading to the creation of such a folk fusion oddity as Totem King. Nezha’s prototype was the son of the Four Heavenly Kings, with the initial translation leaning towards Nezha.

The Northern Heavenly King of the Four Heavenly Kings, Bishamonten, within Indian Buddhism spread during the Han and Tang Dynasties to Japan, extended Bishamonten’s belief, giving rise to Uesugi Kenshin’s Uesugi banner.

Nonetheless, in Middle-earth, all of this became Sinicized.

After the Song Dynasty, the stories of Bishamonten and Li Jing, the God of War from the Tang Dynasty, merged into one, and the ’Totem King Li’ gradually became widely known, thoroughly becoming an Eastern deity.

Buddhism passed to Taoism.

Taoism passed to Buddhism.

Nezha entered the Taoist system, resulting from Taoism’s dominance over Buddhism.

——Totem King - Li Jing (God of War) (Bishamonten) (Incarnation) (Eight-Star Golden)!

"Absurd!"

"Can Divine Spirits fuse like this?"

Speaking, however, was not Duncan, but his Three Corpses within the sea of knowledge, suddenly manifesting and addressing Duncan’s true self, "Give me an incarnation, let me meet him!"

When Totem King’s Dharma image revealed itself, the surrounding Celestial Soldiers and Generals and stars in the sky also transformed.

"Huh?"

"Their attack suddenly has order!"

"It’s the Military School’s joint attack technique!"

Duncan’s expression was surprised as he faced this Eastern God of War, now, the deified Li Jing.

The position of God of War.

When his Dharma image appeared, he commanded and maneuvered the Celestial Soldiers and Generals outside the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, while the Twenty-eight Constellations, Thirty-six Heavenly Spirits, and Seventy-two Earth Fiends were all under his control, all Divine Spirit Dharma images united together, displaying explosively enhanced combat power, even Duncan felt a bit of pressure.

But it was only a bit.

With his three heads and six arms changing Dharma image, the King of Kings - Duncan’s appearance also emerged in the central position, addressing the Totem King in front, he solemnly said, "Bishamonten!"

"See who I am?!"

After the fusion of Totem King, the consciousness primarily took Li Jing as its foundation, but the physical Dharma image was of Bishamonten’s appearance.

In that instant.

The apparition of Bishamonten raised its head, glancing at the distant enemy; upon seeing the appearance of the King of Kings - Duncan, it almost couldn’t hold onto the pagoda in its hand.

"Your Majesty?!" Bishamonten’s apparition shivered slightly.

Its faith originated during the Kushan Empire’s rule over Gandhara, every Divine Spirit mixed in Central Asia and the West considered carefully upon seeing Duncan’s King of Kings appearance.

Then, suddenly.

A roar of cheers like a mountain collapsing and the sea roaring echoed throughout the universe, even the Jade Emperor within the Lingxiao Treasure Hall gazed in astonishment towards the cracks in the sky from which surged seemingly endless waves of spirits.

"Tread the Lingxiao, cut down the Jade Emperor!"

"Kill!"

"First dismantle the Heavenly Court, then fight the Battle of Heaven!"

Number one fans of Duncan’s true self.

Since he led the spirits to flatten the entire continent in the previous world, these little darlings have been rampantly wild, coincidentally this world’s Eternal Heaven is also an aspect of All Spirits Faith, the rise of Mongolia was its strong period, so the slogan of crushing Lingxiao was realistically grounded.

However, within All Spirits there were some peculiar creatures, chanting equally strange slogans.

"Storm Ling Mountain!"

"Make Shakyamuni stand up, we sit."

Innumerable spirits transformed into flowing lights and surged into this plane formed by the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

They were indeed an ultimate fusion material.

As the waves of spirits flooded into this dimension, they immediately merged with Heavenly Dao Law, they didn’t care about conformity or not, inherently being a colossal pan-consciousness collective. When selfless law encountered countless conscious laws, fundamentally they were the same.

The immense collective consciousness of spirits immediately started evolving, these ultimate fusion materials instantly transformed, becoming part of the deity, which later became the appearance of ’Eternal Heaven’.

So you claim to be Jade Emperor?

Claim the mantle of Heaven?

Ready for a beating?

As part of the Heaven concept, once the Eternal Heaven’s appearance coagulated, it instantly transformed into flowing light descending upon Duncan.

Substitute playing, King of Kings, online battling!

What nonsense Jade Emperor.

Even if the Central Plains dynasty recognized you, we in All Spirits Faith, foreign as it may be, Eternal Heaven stands firmly opposed first.

To battle!

Come out and face death!

Is being a deity that easy?

As the All Spirits concept’s favored one, once Eternal Heaven’s appearance condensed, it immediately identified Duncan as its mortal incarnation, even drawing upon the future fortune of Mongolia, channeling the era’s fortune of nomadic rise into Duncan’s body.

Exalt Him!

The All Spirits remained as fierce as ever, their demand was straightforward, tear down the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, strike against the Jade Emperor in front of them.

Do we shy away from his sharpness?

Nonsense.

Today with Eternal Heaven here, possessing the Root World’s fortune, even Emperor Haotian dare be challenged.

Myth doesn’t arise from boastful talk.

Otherwise, who matches India?

From humanity’s entry into the Stone Age, even the far ancient Dark Ages, spirits battling never concerned victories, at the least momentum was never lost or faltered!

Moreover, in Central Plains, they have an alias, Primitive Witchcraft’s spirits are their branch.

Whether victory or defeat irrelevant, the spirits’ lineage is certainly prestigious.
