At the Myriad Gods Conference, Earth Emperor Yuejian once again raised the issue of the Earth Vein Malevolence left behind by the Earth Demon God.
White Emperor Luohu spoke first: "I have confirmed that the baleful aura has been tampered with by the Destruction Demon God, Shen Ni."
Luohu stepped forward, declaring that he would handle Shen Ni himself. The All Grand Unity Experts had no objections—they were more than happy to let someone else deal with Shen Ni!
Shen Ni wielded the destruction treasure, the "God Slaying Spear." Though his realm had fallen to Grand Unity Eleventh Heaven after being severely wounded in the last war of Gods and Devils, he was still no easy opponent for an Ordinary Great Divine Power!
As they say, fortune favors the bold. Seeing this, Li Fan thought to himself that Luohu truly lived up to his reputation as the future founder of the Demonic Dao—audacious beyond measure.
At the Myriad Gods Conference, Old Ancestor Hongjun smiled at the assembled deities. "Everyone, would any of you be interested in joining the Immortal Path? Our path has five Great Divine Powers, with a bright future ahead. This opportunity should not be missed."
"The creed of our Immortal Path: My fate is my own, not Heaven's!"
Many deities fell into thought. The rise of the Immortal Path was unstoppable.
Goddess Wangshu noticed Li Fan's eyes darting, clearly scheming about something. She suspected he was brewing trouble again.
Li Fan laughed heartily. "I've heard a little about the Five Elder Lords' Immortal Path and have long admired it. I've decided to register my name with the Immortal Path. Fellow Daoist Hongjun, would you be willing to accept me?"
Li Fan sent a divine thought transmission to the Three Goddesses—Wangshu, Ziguang, and Taiyuan—who all agreed to his proposal.
The Three Goddesses spoke in turn, expressing their desire to register with the Immortal Path as well.
Hearing this, Hongjun's mind went blank. Since when had the Immortal Path become so popular?
Even Taiyin Star Lord, a Grand Unity Perfection expert, wanted to register. Four Great Divine Powers joining at once—this was clearly a way to put pressure on the Three Emperors.
The Three Emperors gave Hongjun a meaningful glance.
Hongjun now found himself caught in a bind thanks to Li Fan and the others' proposal.
Hongjun, Yinyang, Qiankun, and Diandao exchanged divine thoughts. Since a Western Monk had already registered with the Immortal Path, a precedent had been set.
Thus, at the Myriad Gods Conference, they agreed to let Li Fan and the three others join the Immortal Path.
The thousands of deities at the conference were stunned. They didn't fully understand what "registering with the Immortal Path" meant, but they knew that the Immortal Path now had nine Great Divine Powers.
Nine in total—this already rivaled the Three Emperors' alliance and would soon surpass it. The Immortal Path Alliance was on the path to its peak.
Li Fan's intention was simply to put pressure on Old Ancestor Hongjun.
As the saying goes, if you can't beat them, join them. Joining the Immortal Path now was like investing with capital—once this opportunity passed, it would be gone.
Li Fan and his group had been making waves lately, and this was a rare chance to let Hongjun take the heat.
Hongjun, that sly old fox holding two Innate Supreme Treasures—Li Fan wanted to see how this nominal Immortal Path Alliance Leader would continue to hide!
Seeing the Immortal Path's sphere of influence suddenly more than double, Ancestor Dragon could no longer contain himself.
"Everyone, the Dragon Clan is the most hospitable! Our dragon maidens are graceful and charming. Would anyone be interested in joining the Dragon Clan family?" Ancestor Dragon even used the incident of Thunder God Leize as a selling point.
Leize looked utterly defeated.
The other Divine Beast Clan leaders refused to be outdone, eagerly listing the benefits of joining their clans.
Li Fan watched as the Myriad Gods Conference suddenly became lively, the scene chaotic and noisy, no different from a marketplace.
The Five Divine Beasts' efforts were not in vain—many deities were indeed tempted.
In the end, the Three Emperors declared the Myriad Gods Conference a complete success. In a million years, the Zhou Mountain Divine Prohibition Grand Formation would be activated for a final decisive battle against the Chaos Demon Gods!
Though the thousands of deities who attended the conference could not voice their own demands, they would gain firsthand information from the Myriad Gods Conference, which they could use to minimize losses and seek benefits.
The importance of information was undeniable. The information gap was the key to a crushing advantage—this held true in any world!
As Li Fan and the four walked back, Goddess Taiyuan was the first to lose patience. With a look of resentment, she said, "Li Fan, since when did you become so fond of the Immortal Path? I've never seen you put this much effort into the Postnatal Divine Path."
Li Fan patted Goddess Taiyuan on the shoulder, saying that the capable do more work. The Postnatal Deities in the Hall of Myriad Gods were thriving under her management.
"The Immortal Path can't compare to the Divine Path right now, but as the Postnatal All Spirits grow in number, they'll naturally seek new paths. The Immortal Path is a good choice."
"After all, the quota for Postnatal Deities is limited—too many wolves, too little meat. Most importantly, Hongjun still has an Innate Supreme Treasure."
Goddess Wangshu, recalling that Li Fan possessed a Fragment of the Jade Disc of Creation, blurted out, "The main fragment of the Jade Disc of Creation is in Hongjun's hands. That means seven of the nine Innate Supreme Treasures of the Primordial World have already appeared."
Li Fan silently counted in his mind—actually, eight Innate Supreme Treasures had already appeared in the Primordial World, but the "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation" was still only half-finished.
Empress Ziguang and Goddess Taiyuan were taken aback. Hongjun had two Innate Supreme Treasures—such immense fortune, hidden so deeply!
He who would wear the crown must bear its weight. Being the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao was no easy task!
Within the Zhou Tian, there are Five Immortals: Heaven, Earth, Human, Deity, and Ghost!
The Divine Immortal Path would eventually emerge into the world, but now was not the time.
This time, the Three Goddesses followed Li Fan to the Taiyang Star. In the starry sky, thanks to the power of the "Zhou Tian Star Array," the four of them were safest.
No wall is impervious to gossip. With so many deities at the Myriad Gods Conference, the Three Emperors' proposal would inevitably spread far and wide.
This was an open scheme against the Chaos Demon Gods—attacking their morale first. Against an overwhelming tide, all resistance was futile, but they still had to guard against the Demon Gods lashing out in desperation!
After arriving at the Taiyang Divine Palace, Li Fan gave the Three Goddesses three pairs of sunglasses he had made out of boredom.
Sunbathing on the Taiyang Star—there was truly nothing wrong with that.
"Goddess Wangshu, at the Myriad Gods Conference, did you notice which Great Divine Powers broke through to a new realm?"
Li Fan had already formed some guesses when he looked at those Great Divine Powers during the conference.
Wangshu said with a relaxed expression, "A few have secretly broken through to a higher realm. Cang Tian, Ancestor Dragon, Yuanfeng, Yinyang, and Qiankun—these five have already broken through to Grand Unity Tenth Heaven. The strength of the Five Divine Beasts is swelling more and more."
Five people breaking through to a higher realm was somewhat unexpected for Li Fan, but it also made sense.
The Primordial World was now in utter chaos. Many tribes near Mount Zhou were migrating, and the battle at Mount Zhou was inevitable. This was the will of the Three Emperors, and all the Grand Unity Experts were united in carrying it out!
The Human Emperor Jiutou Clan sent the Xuxu Clan to mediate, but the effect was minimal.
For no reason at all, who would willingly give you their territory? Some tribes followed the Hegemonic Way: if you didn't give, they would take.
Seeing the situation turn unfavorable, those with the means migrated to the Nine Heavens. Many tribes joined the Star Realm, and the once-peaceful Star Realm became lively again.
But tribes with such capability were few. Most tribes ignited the flames of war, and the land was filled with suffering. The struggle for racial survival was far too brutal!
When humans stir the killing intent, heaven and earth are overturned, and the Calamity Qi surges violently!
The Demon God Shen Ni secretly cheered. The ferocious beasts gestated faster within the earth's veins. When the earth stirs the killing intent, dragons and serpents rise from their paths.
The battle at Mount Zhou—the will of the gods. When heaven stirs the killing intent, the stars shift and constellations change. The celestial anomalies were seen by all the Grand Unity Experts.
When heaven and man unite in their killing intent, all changes settle the foundation!
