Moonlight Divine Water —cold and clear like frost—silently invaded his Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness. His primordial spirit, condensed over millennia, was as if being devoured by thousands of ants, its radiance rapidly dimming, distorting, and disintegrating!
Starlight Divine Water —deep and mysterious like the void, pointing directly to the True Spirit, as if it wants to completely disintegrate and devour the "consciousness" that forms the foundation of its existence!
The Three Lights Divine Water and the Karma Red Lotus intertwined, creating an extremely cruel scene of Destruction. The temperature inside the hall plummeted, and even the light seemed to be distorted by the Destruction power.
"Karma Red Lotus?!"
Fuxi, who had been closely monitoring the situation, suddenly frowned and spoke, his voice filled with disbelief and astonishment.
"This treasure is said to be Fellow Daoist Blood Sea Minghe's innate treasure, how did it end up in Fellow Daoist Qing Huan Universe's hands?"
Upon hearing this, the gazes of the other deities in the hall instantly turned to Qing Huan with scrutiny and inquiry.
Feeling the gazes of the crowd, Qing Huan's cold and ruthless expression vanished instantly, replaced by a perfectly balanced sense of helplessness and composure. He quickly waved his hand and explained:
"Fellow Daoists, please do not misunderstand! Minghe Styx and I are quite compatible and have long been sworn brothers. This Karma Red Lotus was obtained by me in fair exchange with him in exchange for two extremely rare 'Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure'! It was by no means a forced acquisition."
Qing Huan's expression seemed as if he was afraid of being misunderstood as some kind of vicious bandit.
Upon hearing Qing Huan's explanation of the Karma Red Lotus and its ability to cleanse karma, the burning desire in the eyes of everyone in the hall slowly faded, turning into understanding and undisguised envy.
The undisguised longing on Di Jun's face was almost overflowing as he sighed:
"Qing Huan, this treasure truly surpasses the Creation heaven and earth, making one... yearn for it."
Qing Huan simply smiled calmly and declined:
"Alas, it cannot compare to the River Diagram and Luo Script in Fellow Di Jun's hand; those are the supreme treasures for deducing the universe and controlling the warp and weft."
At this point, a barely perceptible glint flashed in his eyes, and a long-held thought suddenly became clear:
Di Jun and Tai Yi were formed from the eyes of the Great God Pangu, and were Innate Deities. However, they were accompanied by the River Diagram and Luo Script and the Chaos Bell... The implications of this are profound.
The River Diagram and Luo Script can predict the myriad phenomena and secrets of heaven, and give rise to the profound Eight Trigrams. They also contain two unparalleled arrays that are unmatched in the Primordial Wilderness world.
In particular, the Great Formation of the Stars, if its full power can be unleashed, is enough to draw upon the power of the Chaos Galaxy, taming the raging Chaos Qi into innate Innate Spiritual Qi that nourishes heaven and earth, making the Primordial Origin grow stronger day by day.
The Chaos Bell, with its resounding sound that shakes the primordial chaos, is an excellent spiritual treasure for suppressing supreme Luck, more than capable of guarding the Heavenly Court.
Then look at the Witch Clan. The Twelve Ancestral Witches were born from the Pangu's Essence Blood, and the power of their bloodline shook the heavens and the earth.
The Pangu Temple is the most supreme spiritual treasure in the Primordial Wilderness. Even if Dao Ancestor Hongjun were to visit the area under the Pangu's Will, he would find it difficult to cross the line without permission!
The Witch Clan is naturally drawn to the turbid and evil. If they can be properly guided, they can stop their frenzied slaughter of demons for blood and cultivation, and instead absorb the boundless evil energy accumulated in the Primordial Wilderness world for their own use... Furthermore, the Twelve Ancestral Witches will govern the Earth Law, relying on the foundation of the Pangu Temple to establish the "Earth Court," which is responsible for purification and ensuring favorable weather... The laws governed by the Twelve Ancestral Witches are all closely related to the billions of living beings in the Primordial Wilderness and the operation of heaven and earth.
As long as everyone stays in their place and performs their duties diligently, the Primordial Origin will only become more vigorous and powerful.
As Dao Ancestor Hongjun once said during the Second Witch-Demon War, "Demons rule the heavens, and witches rule the earth."
Perhaps it was the Heavenly Mandate ordained by the Great God Pangu for these fourteen individuals?
Therefore, even Hongjun did not forcibly intervene in the affairs of the two races... Unfortunately, the enmity between the Witch and Demon and Yao races was as deep as a mountain, and their Blood Sea was already etched into their bones. Could reconcile them?
It's harder than climbing to heaven!
Furthermore, their indiscriminate killing incurred the wrath of heaven and earth, and the aura of Immeasurable Calamity spread throughout the land.
Both sides wanted to emulate the ancient stories of the Three Innate Clans, attempting to unify the world and use that supreme Luck their path to Attain Sagehood... Little did they know that the tragic end of the innate dragon, phoenix, and qilin Three Clans had already proven that this path was a dead end!
The workings of Heavenly Dao cannot allow a single clan to Universe.
The pressing problem now is how to find cultivation resources for the Witch Clan to replace the flesh and blood of the Demon Clan... And the Demon Clan certainly needs to take drastic measures to cleanse those vicious people burdened with karmic obstacles who only know how to slaughter... The road ahead is long and full of thorns, and the burden on my shoulders is more than a thousand pounds!
"Fellow Daoist, it seems you have gained some insight?"
Di Jun keenly noticed Qing Huan's momentary moment of contemplation and asked.
Qing Huan concealed the depth in his eyes and gently shook his head:
"These are just some immature ideas; I will share them with you when the time is right."
Seeing this, Di Jun, though curious, wisely refrained from asking further questions and turned his gaze to the hall.
Where was even a trace of the arrogant demeanor of the former "Head of Male Immortals" that the East Prince once possessed?
At that moment, he was like a worm whose spine had been removed, rolling and howling wildly on the cold ground.
The soul-scorching pain of the Karma Red Lotus and the bone-corroding, soul-destroying power of the Sun, Moon, and Three Lights Divine Water would be unbearable even for Sage.
The piercing, distorted screams pierced through the palace, sending chills down the spines of all who heard them.
"Ah--! Kill me! Fellow Qing Huan... I beg you... give me a quick death! Kill me!"
The East Prince's voice was hoarse and broken, each syllable carrying a heart-wrenching despair.
This inhuman torture made him truly understand what it means to be unable to live and unable to die!
A cold smile curved Qing Huan's lips, but his voice was terrifyingly calm:
"Release you? Ha, who do you think you are? The choice has already been made with you."
Was it to replace Yuanfeng in suppressing the Volcano of Immortality, thus atoning for her karmic debts?
Or... be eternally condemned to the Netherworld Sea of Blood, suffering endless loneliness and torment?
With his fingers slightly spread, five-colored, Destruction lightning bolts leaped from his palm once more, emitting a chilling crackling sound.
"If you remain stubborn and unyielding... my methods are far more than this. You can't even withstand this little 'entertainment,' you piece of trash. Do you even deserve to be called Innate Deities?"
Qing Huan had already made up her mind.
If this East Prince dares to choose the latter, he will surely make him suffer the excruciating pain of having his soul extracted, his bones scraped, and his heart ripped out, without end!
"Ah--!"
The Five Elements Divine Thunder, like a whip of heavenly punishment, struck once again fiercely at the East Prince's curled-up and convulsing immortal body. The lightning exploded, and the aura of scorched flesh and blood spread out.
The excruciating pain overwhelmed him completely, and his last shred of will to resist crumbled.
"I choose... I choose the first option! I am willing to suppress the Volcano of Immortality on behalf of the Phoenix Tribe! I am willing to bear boundless karma! I beg you, fellow Daoist... to show mercy! I beg you, fellow Daoist, to have compassion!"
The East Prince was in tears, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
The mere thought of the eternal torment of the Netherworld Sea of Blood made his soul tremble.
In contrast, suppressing Volcano of Immortality, though its karmic force will eventually burn out, leaves only a sliver of hope!
