The First Battle Between Immortals and Demons
Upon hearing Hongjun's words, the Ancestor Reincarnation couldn't help but reveal a smug smile.
"Since the Heavenly Court has contributed, I cannot ask for too much, nor do I wish for much."
When the results come out, we'll split the credit equally.
The Ancestor Reincarnation knew that Hongjun would definitely not agree to his conditions, but what he wanted was a process.
First, the demands were far beyond what Hongjun could accept, and then the requirements were gradually lowered.
In this way, Hongjun could accept it.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. If it were to be split in half, I would rather destroy this great opportunity Great Merit deed."
None of us should expect to receive this Great Merit.
The Heavenly Court under my command is the primary target of my efforts.
Hongjun directly and sternly refused, saying that splitting it in half was worse than a lose-lose situation, and that no one should gain any merit.
One Primordial Hunyuan Celestial Venerable and one Heavenly Dao Saint immediately began negotiations.
There was absolutely no chance for Di Jun, the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, to interject or make a choice.
Di Jun felt nothing but immense frustration and resentment.
Unfortunately, neither the Heavenly Dao Saint nor the Hunyuan Celestial Venerable were people he could afford to offend.
Xuanqing stood there, seemingly oblivious, his expression unreadable.
In reality, Xuanqing was overjoyed, watching the scene with a sense of schadenfreude.
Especially when looking at Di Jun, Xuanqing was cheering him on in his heart.
"That's it, let's resent that Old Thief Hongjun. Only in this way can we best serve our interests."
Of course, in front of the Saint and the Hunyuan Celestial Venerable, Xuanqing did not dare to be too presumptuous, and quickly suppressed all such thoughts.
If that Old Thief Hongjun were to hear his thoughts, he'd be in big trouble.
After all, listening to the innermost thoughts of a Primordial Origin Golden Immortal and understanding their ideas is as easy as turning one's hand for Heavenly Dao Saint Primordial Origin Golden Immortal.
Even Xuanqing himself, with his Early-stage Hunyuan Golden Immortal cultivation, could hear the thoughts of a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal.
"The fact that the Heavenly Court has contributed half of its share cannot be ignored."
I won't bully these juniors of Heavenly Court; how about we split it 60/40?
You, Hongjun, and the Heavenly Court are number six; I, Xuanqing, and Xuanqing disciple are number four.
If you, Hongjun, do not agree, then none of us will gain Great Merit in this matter."
Seeing that Hongjun had fallen into his own logic, Samsara Reincarnation began to take control of the rhythm.
"Six-four points..."
Hmph! Considering our past relationship, a 60/40 split it is.
Let this matter be settled then. Di Jun, you and the Heavenly Court must fully cooperate in this matter! There must be no mistakes."
Hongjun uttered a single sentence and immediately withdrew his divine sense, causing the Saint's decree to automatically float into Di Jun's hand.
Seeing that Hongjun had retreated, the Ancestor Reincarnation also withdrew.
He had no intention of bullying these juniors in Heavenly Court.
"You are indeed my good disciple. Go ahead and do this."
"As your teacher, I will always be your strongest support."
After transmitting his voice to Xuanqing, the Ancestor Reincarnation's divine sense completely disappeared.
"I will obey the decree of the Saint."
Di Jun respectfully accepted the decree from the Old Thief Hongjun, daring not to express any thoughts.
"Di Jun, are you alright? Poor Daoist never expected things to develop like this."
Xuanqing's behavior at this moment was exactly like the green beverage in his memory.
Xuanqing's words were incredibly damaging.
Although Di Jun's face showed no expression at this moment.
However, his dissatisfaction with the Saint Hongjun had increased by several orders of magnitude.
However, Di Jun had few complaints about Xuanqing's master, the Ancestor Reincarnation.
At this moment, Di Jun realized that their Demon Race's Heavenly Court was nothing more than a servant of the Saint Hongjun.
However, even if he realized it, what difference would it make? He, Di Jun, did not have the background of Fellow Daoist Xuanqing.
Even Di Jun didn't possess the strength of Hunyuan Celestial Venerable, enough to directly defy Heavenly Dao Saint.
"Fellow Daoist Xuanqing is Poor Daoist kind. I am fine with it. Let us discuss how to proceed with this matter."
Since this matter was proposed by you, fellow Daoist, then let us proceed according to your wishes."
Having suppressed his thoughts and emotions, Di Jun regained his aura as the supreme Heavenly Emperor and began issuing commands.
Meanwhile, in the Purple Heavens Palace, the Old Thief Hongjun had no idea about the situation in Heavenly Court.
After withdrawing his Saint sense, he began to use the Jade of Creation to fully deduce the Lingbao or great formation that Xuanqing had mentioned.
The negotiations between the Heavenly Court Saint Hongjun and the Reincarnation Celestial Venerable were known to very few other living beings.
Only a few Hunyuan Celestial Venerable Venerables who were watching over the Heavenly Court at the time knew this.
Of course, the Sanqing Ones, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Styx, Hong Yun Zhen Yuanzi soon learned of this as well.
Taiqing naturally gave his full support to Xuanqing's scheme.
This is something that can hold back the Old Thief Hongjun, hold back the Demon Race Heavenly Court, and is of great benefit to the Primordial Wilderness.
Taiqing naturally offered its full support.
As for the other living beings and the Hunyuan Celestial Venerable, they all focused their attention on the outside of the Immortal Court on Penglai Immortal Island in the Eastern Sea.
The war between immortals and demons saved the actions of the Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches, as well as the actions of the Styx in the Blood Sea, a great deal of trouble and attention.
Of course, Xuanqing's planning also played a significant role.
In the span of a century, the Demon Race army led by Tai Yi has descended upon the outskirts of Penglai Immortal Island.
Meanwhile, on Penglai Immortal Island, the Immortal Clan Immortal Court had already made thorough preparations.
The initial version of the Myriad Immortals Great Formation has already been practiced.
They were originally the five Quasi-Saints who established the Immortal Clan together with the Dong Wang Gong, leading billions of immortal soldiers to unleash the Myriad Immortals Great Formation.
After Fuxi and Nuwa joined the Immortal Court, they continued to develop a more perfect and powerful Myriad Immortals Great Formation.
Fuxi is now completely unable to escape the fate of the divination array.
The original Fuxi became the Demon Race Xi Huang after joining the Demon Race's Heavenly Court.
The original Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Formation of the Demon Race was derived by Fuxi Di Jun using the River Diagram and Luo Shu.
Of course, it is possible to deduce the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Formation, a grand formation on par with the Dutian God-Demon Great Formation.
Naturally, the support of Heavenly Dao in secret played a crucial role in this.
However, this also demonstrates Fuxi's mastery of divination and formation techniques.
Now, he's helping the Immortal Court to deduce and perfect the Myriad Immortals Great Formation, which is truly a perfect fit for his profession.
"Dong Wang Gong, I, the Emperor, have led the Heavenly Court Army to descend upon you! Get out of Penglai Immortal Island now and face your death!"
Outside Penglai Immortal Island, the aura of the Tai Yi- Saint Taiyi permeated the air.
Tai Yi's Golden Crow Fire was about to set the Eastern Sea, where Penglai Immortal Island was located, ablaze.
The Demon Race army is arrayed outside Penglai Immortal Island, ready to attack at the first command from Tai Yi.
Tai Yi's voice boomed like Thunder outside Penglai Immortal Island.
Tai Yi knew the power of the Penglai Immortal Island's protective array, and with the establishment of the Immortal Court, the array would definitely be strengthened.
He had no intention of voluntarily rushing into the Penglai Immortal Island.
The Heavenly Court has also learned some information about the development of Penglai Immortal Island over the years.
He also knew that although the Immortal Court was weaker than his Heavenly Court, it wasn't that much weaker.
If they were to break into Penglai Immortal Island, the Immortal Court, with its advantageous terrain and powerful formations, would likely be able to defeat him and send him packing.
They might even perish on Penglai Immortal Island.
The best option is to challenge them outside Penglai Immortal Island and lure them out.
"The Heavenly Court has already attacked our doorstep, yet the Dong Wang Gong hasn't reacted at all."
