What? There are old and new versions of the Investiture of the Gods! And I've activated the new one!
What? The new Investiture of the Gods has to go on patrol once every thousand years, and this time I have to go along!
Hong Liangcai, who transmigrated to the Primordial World, is at a loss for words. A freak accident led him to activate the new Investiture of the Gods, instantly advancing from mortal to immortal and binding his fate to that of every human in the Primordial World.
No, it also includes the fate of all the immortals in Heaven!
The Jade Emperor is at his wits' end, too. His divinations foretell a great calamity befalling Heaven, but the immediate problem is that the hostile demon race keeps growing in number while Heaven's immortals are nearly depleted.
At the same time, great demons that have slept for a thousand years near Heaven are about to awaken; foreign deities are plotting to overthrow the Eastern Heavenly Court's supreme authority; and devils from the Netherworld are trying to cross into this realm and seize it for themselves. Even the Sages, who should have long since retired from the world, are beginning to stir.
With Heaven's elite forces on the verge of collapse, even the Jade Emperor, the Monkey King, and Erlang Shen can't handle three opponents at once. Left with no choice, Hong Liangcai steps forward to taunt the enemy and draw their fire.
“Listen up, you scum! I'm taking on all of you! Yes, every last one!”
“If you're not afraid to die, come on over. Grandpa here will get you onto the Investiture of the Gods!”
With the new Investiture of the Gods, once an enemy's soul is listed, Hong Liangcai can control their Dharma body.
A homemade pill somehow solves two major problems: the scarcity of alchemy ingredients and the low success rate of pill refinement.
Armed with these two trump cards, Hong Liangcai chooses to face the crisis threatening to shatter the Primordial World. He will shoulder the responsibility of creating a new world.
