The Primordial Desolation Conspiracy Rises Again
With Jiang Yun's explicit support Incarnation the Spirit Gourd Daoist, the attitude of the Western Teachings became clear.
Spirit Gourd Daoist's affirmative answer undoubtedly injected a strong sense of confidence into Di Jun's grand plan.
When the news reached the Thirty-Three Layered Heavens, in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, Di Jun sat on his throne, a smile involuntarily appearing on his usually calm face.
He exclaimed in admiration:
"Excellent! Fellow Daoist Spirit Gourd is wise and righteous. What my Demon Clan seeks is not the benefit of our race, but to open a gateway to Chaos and seek transcendence for Primordial Desolation All Spirits!"
"Kunpeng and Fuxi, you two must act according to plan. You must push this proposal to restart the Chaos Fetal Membrane to the forefront as quickly as possible, gathering the strength of all forces in the Primordial World to achieve our goal!"
"Your Majesty, we obey!" Kunpeng and Fuxi bowed and accepted the order.
The Western Region Mount Sumeru Sacred Realm.
The two Saints, Jieyin Zhunti, were also discussing this matter.
"Junior brother, since Spirit Gourd has expressed his opinion, this matter must be very promising. Our Western Teachings can participate in it."
It can not only consolidate the foundation and open up new sources for the Primordial Desolation World, but also benefit the Dao of All Beings path of all beings, and is in line with the concept of universal salvation of all beings in our religion.
"Let us announce this to all: our sect will fully participate in the construction of the Chaos Fetal Membrane."
"Good."
With the Western Teachings's strong involvement, the top beings of the Primordial World, who were originally observing and weighing the risks and opportunities under Fuxi's persuasion, finally made up their minds.
West Kunlun, Yaochi paradise.
Amidst the swirling celestial mist, the Queen Mother of the West sat high on her Cloud Platform, listening to the female immortals beneath her relay the official declaration from Western Mount Sumeru and the Demon Clan Heavenly Court.
Her elegant and noble face showed several changes in expression. After hearing that Spirit Gourd Daoist, representing Jiang Yun, expressed his support, she finally made a decision.
She gently stroked the feathers of the Azure Phoenix nestled beside her, her voice firm:
With the endorsement of the Two Sages of the West and the Hunyuan Dao Daoist, our West Kunlun cannot lag behind and should also follow this trend.
News has spread that I will personally lead my troops from West Kunlun to participate in the construction of the Fetal Membrane Great Formation!
The Azure Phoenix flapped its wings and cried out, responding to its master's call, which also symbolized that the forces of the West Kunlun had boarded this giant ship sailing towards Chaos.
Deep within the Netherworld Blood Sea, the Sect Leader Styx sat cross-legged atop Karma Red Lotus, his body surrounded by surging waves of blood.
Since the world of Reincarnation was not opened in the Blood Sea in this lifetime, Minghe had no chance to become the master of the Asura Path in the Reincarnation. As well, Asura has not yet been created. He only had some ideas when studying the Blood Dao, but now his gaze has been turned to the Chaos that Jiang Yun mentioned.
"Hmph, Saint are puppets of the Heavenly Dao, following the way of Heaven, and are still limited by resources like the Hongmeng Purple Qi."
Only by Hunyuan can one truly transcend!
"If Jiang Yun can attain enlightenment in Chaos, how can I confine myself to the Blood Sea?" He suddenly opened his eyes, his blood-red light surging. It was time to get involved.
Candle Dragon coiled in the time vortex deep within the Dragon Abyss of the East Sea. His massive dragon body sensed the ripples rising between heaven and earth. After receiving the formal alliance from the Western Teachings and the Demon Clan, even the eons- Immortality River of Time in his dragon eyes seemed to ripple.
Upon receiving the news, Elder Fire Phoenix of the Phoenix remnant lineage intensified his rebirth fire, his actions speaking volumes without needing words.
In an instant, powerful forces from all walks of life in the Primordial World, whether reclusive or leaders of sects, emerged from their Cave Abode, secret realms, oceans, and deep Earth Veins, as if drawn by an invisible Daoist aura, in response to the "Great Plan of the Chaos Fetal Membrane" advocated by the Demon Clan and the Western Teachings.
The efficiency of the Demon Clan Heavenly Court is extremely high.
With his expertise in calculation and planning, Fuxi quickly took the lead in establishing the "Fetal Membrane Construction Hub," with Taiyi in charge of central coordination, Fuxi responsible for optimizing the Formations layout, and Kunpeng coordinating the allocation of resources from all parties.
Di Jun, on the other hand, sat in the central command, in charge of overall planning and setting the tone.
Rare and precious materials continuously converged from various forces: the Dragon Clan provided the "Chronosphere Crystal"; the Queen Mother of the West contributed the "Essence of Wood" that nourishes all things; the Ancestor Minghe brought the "Blood Essence Jade Marrow" condensed from a massive amount of Blood Fiend energy; and other ancient and powerful beings such as the Fire Phoenix also contributed their most treasured spiritual minerals, divine waters, and rare woods.
The Demon Clan Heavenly Court generously opened its ancient treasury, with Sun refined gold, Taiyin Cold Iron, and Stars cores piled up like mountains.
Based on the Hetu and River Diagram and Luo Shu, Fuxi combined the original Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation Diagram of the Fetal Membrane with the new Formations ideas provided by the Spirit Gourd Daoist and some insights from his Hunyuan Realm, further optimizing and perfecting the Formations and its deployment process.
The entire Primordial World was united at an unprecedented level.
Commands were issued from the Cardinals and distributed to various key nodes in the Primordial World.
Top-tier Artifact Refining refiners, Formations masters, and Laws comprehenders were all conscripted.
At thirty-six key locations, including Mount Sumeru, the node of the Western Region Spirit Vein node, the edge of the Minghe Blood Sea, the source of the Kunlun Earth Veins, the Eye of the Return of the Four Guixu, and the outer Starry Sky, massive foundations constructed of divine materials began to rise from the ground. They were engraved with dazzlingly complex Spatial Dao Patterns and solidifying divine symbols, Shimmering with light and resonating with the Laws.
The powerful Formations carefully guided the immense energy contributed from all sides, condensing a mysterious and extraordinary array core at the core of the base, like the heart of an embryo, beginning to pulsate faintly.
The entire Primordial Desolation Earth was shrouded in a fiery heat, as if foreshadowing the imminent completion of an unprecedented feat.
However, behind this bustling scene, an undercurrent was quietly brewing within the Jade Void Palace of Kunlun Mountain.
Yuanshi Tianzun sat cross-legged beneath the Auspicious Cloud Golden Lamp, his face serene, but deep within his eyes, which looked down upon everyone, lay a chilling storm brewing.
The Water Mirror in front of him clearly reflected the bustling construction scenes of the Fetal Membrane altars at key points throughout Primordial World primordial world.
The figures of powerful Demon Clan, disciples of the Western Teachings, and even those Quasi-Saint Mighty Being had not appeared in the world for a long time all devoted themselves to the same goal.
This scene, which should have symbolized the prosperity and unity of the Primordial World, deeply stung the sacred heart of the Yuanshi Tianzun.
"Hmph!" A cold snort containing holy wrath seemed to freeze the ethereal Yuqing aura within the hall for a moment.
"Chaos Fetal Membrane? Reaching the Chaos?" Yuanshi's voice carried a hint of disdain.
Di Jun and Taiyi's attempt to use this to gather people's hearts and avoid the Tribulation Cycle's reckoning is simply wishful thinking!
Jiang Yun... you arrogant brat!
They allowed their Western Region disciples to stir up trouble, attempting to disrupt the Great Trend of the Heavenly Dao things!
Laozi should have been on Shouyang Mountain, was in Kunlun Jade Void Palace at the time. He sat upright to one side, his eyes lowered and indifferent. His face, as calm as a still well, showed no joy or anger. Only the tip of his whisk moved without wind, revealing that his mind was not entirely at peace.
"Junior brother, if the Fetal Membrane is formed, it will indeed enhance the Primordial Desolation Origin and open the barrier, which will be beneficial for living beings to explore the Chaos." He spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of indifference.
However, once this situation is established, the Witch-Demon will not decline, and the Fortune will not change.
How did Human Clan rise and grow into a great race in the Primordial World? How can the foundation of our civilization be manifested?
This is precisely the problem, and the contradiction!
When people have different interests, their actions and thoughts will inevitably diverge.
Human Clan, favored by the Heavenly Dao and chosen by Saint as the foundation of education, are inherently weak, making them the perfect choice for the protagonist of the Heavenly Dao, and thus easily controlled and manipulated.
As the overlords of the old era, the Witch and Demon Clans had to decline and withdraw, handing over their Fortune and the position of Protagonists of Heaven and Earth to the Human Clan.
This is not only about the struggle for the Fortune of the religion, but also about the trajectory of the Great Dao that he firmly believes in!
"What my Senior Brother says is absolutely right." The Yuanshi Tianzun Venerable's eyes were sharp as swords.
Dao of Humanity prospers, the Heavenly Dao becomes clear, and education can be implemented.
If the Witch and Demon Clans use this Fetal Membrane to prolong their lives, or even rise to a higher level and continue to dominate the world, how can humans become the protagonist?
Where does my Chan Teachings and moral guidance stand? This is going against the will of Heaven!
When he said the word "defying the heavens," his tone was resolute, full of a sense of Act on behalf of Heaven.
For him, conforming to the Three Pure Ones' plan and benefiting the rise of the Human Clan is the greatest "Heavenly Dao".
The Sect Master Tongtian, who had been silent all along, glanced at Yuanshi and his brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
Although his regret over the separation of the Three Pure Ones had not subsided, he vaguely disagreed with the way Yuanshi Tianzun insisted on forcibly promoting the change of Dao of Humanity and on the premise of weakening or even exterminating the Witch-Demon.
However, he also understood that the Human Clan, as the new Protagonists of Heaven and Earth, was indeed the Great Trend of the Heavenly Dao, and it would also be of great benefit to the Interception Sect.
He ultimately did not refute his two senior brothers, but simply said in a deep voice:
As saints, we should naturally uphold the order of the Heavenly Dao Way.
The Demon Clan race's actions have disrupted the course of destiny. Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, what do you think we should do?
He left the decision to his two Elder Brothers.
A hint of coldness flashed in Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes as he slowly said:
We only need to subtly guide the Heavenly Secrets and intensify the conflict between the Witch-Demon.
"Di Jun didn't just give birth to ten Golden Crow; in my opinion, it would be quite good if Ten Suns in the Sky. Afterwards, he could guide the Witch Clan to eliminate this scourge for all living beings in the Primordial World. Wouldn't that be wonderful!"
A cold and cruel plan took shape in his mind.
Laozi slightly raised his eyes, his gaze profound. "Junior Brother's intention is to use someone else to do the dirty work and create trouble. I think that's acceptable!"
Laozi listened to Yuanshi's idea without any emotional fluctuation, as if he were merely manipulating some chess pieces to fight.
"Good!" A cold smile appeared on the lips of the Yuanshi Tianzun.
Seeing that Laozi agreed, he immediately took action, using his fingers as a brush to outline several mysterious and obscure miniature Formation Runes in the void, which contained the power to "attract Grievance and Malice" and "amplify malevolent thoughts".
These Formation Runes transformed into invisible streams of light, vanishing into the void in an instant, their target the ten Golden Crow in the Heavenly Realm!
Upon seeing this, the Sect Master Tongtian sighed inwardly but did not stop it. However, his sword energy surged slightly, revealing his inner conflict.
An invisible intervention driven by the will of Saint, like a venomous snake, slithered into the surging torrent of the Primordial Desolation Earth.
At the Sun Star Core, endless True Sun Fire burns fiercely, forming a blazing and radiant realm.
This scorching core area is not chaotic and violent; on the contrary, it is controlled by powerful demonic magic, which has created an independent little world next to the core— the Tanggu.
Here, the Fusang Divine Tree supports a light barrier, isolating most of the terrifying True Sun Fire that is powerful enough to melt Golden Immortal, thus creating a relatively mild space for the Golden Crow to rest and grow.
Within Tanggu, the exotic flowers and rare herbs are all heat-resistant fire- Spirit Plants, and the flowing water is not clear spring water, but divine liquid condensed from the scalding golden True Sun Fire.
However, this seemingly magnificent and wondrous cradle was nothing more than a beautiful cage for the ten young golden Golden Crow inside, who had already grown to the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm, with Yuyi and dazzling golden feathers.
"Eldest Brother! What's going on outside? Why won't we be allowed to go out and train? We've already reached the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm!" The youngest Golden Crow flapped its wings, and golden flames splashed out uncontrollably, sizzling as they burned a nearby Crimson Flame Fruit Tree.
"That's right! When Uncle Taiyi came back last time, he said how magnificent, dangerous and exciting the Chaos Battlefield was, with countless unseen Mutated Beasts and ruins!"
Why are we confined to this tiny Tanggu to cultivate and practice those childish fire control techniques! Another fiery-tempered Golden Crow suddenly soared into the air, letting out a clear, dissatisfied cry.
The second-ranked Golden Crow among the ten Golden Crow Prince, with the most magnificent Yuyi, also showed a hint of impatience at this moment:
Father and Uncle are being far too cautious!
We brothers have come of age and all possess the cultivation of Taiyi. With the Ten Suns Merging, our Chaos True Fire can melt all things!
Let alone ordinary Chaos Fiendish Beasts, even the Chaos Storm, we should be able to burn a path through it!
Confined here all day long, like a caged bird, is this the attitude that we, the Golden Crow Prince, should have?
After the events involving the Human Clan, Father Emperor became like a frightened bird...
The Great Golden Crow remained calm, his gaze fixed on the entrance to Tanggu, where a powerful Restriction had been personally erected by his father, Di Jun. Although he was somewhat agitated, he maintained his composure and instead began to reassure his brothers:
Alright, stop arguing. Father and Uncle are doing this for our own good.
The dangers of the outside world far exceed our imagination; it is not something we can easily venture into at present.
He vaguely heard that even his father had suffered a great loss at the hands of that mysterious Dao Venerable during the Longevity Mountain Incident.
Their Divine Sense could barely penetrate the Restriction Tanggu and sense the tense and busy atmosphere throughout the Heavenly Realm and the Starry Sky, where countless elite Demon Clan were gathering and training.
The churning Demon Cloud and surging Star Power were all for the grand "Chaos Fetal Membrane Plan".
All the great beings in the Primordial World are striving for a great goal, but they, the noble Golden Crow Prince, the Incarnation of the Sun, are excluded and can only practice how to restrain their true fire day after day in this magnificent Tanggu!
They yearn for the vast, boundless Chaos Battlefield described by their fathers, and aspire to achieve feats that surpass their fathers'.
They yearn to prove that they are no longer fledglings in need of protection, but princes who can expand the territory for their fathers and look down upon the Chaos!
This suppressed longing and extreme thirst for freedom of action gradually accumulated to the brink of explosion during the day-to-day seclusion in Tanggu.
Ten small Sun floated restlessly within Tanggu, their brilliant light sometimes blazing and sometimes dim, their anxious emotions burning like invisible flames in this small space.
Unbeknownst to them, in the distant Kunlun Jade Void Palace, a cold gaze was piercing through layers of space, locking onto the ten brothers.
A strange Formation Runes has been quietly activated, silently merging into the Calamity Qi Primordial World, and is quietly flying towards the Sun Star Core, following its predetermined trajectory.
A cataclysmic disaster about to sweep across the Primordial World slowly unfolded amidst this cold calculation!
