Renewed Turmoil

The East King Duke is the Head of Male Immortals, in charge of the [Golden Book], and oversees all matters related to the Mystic Gate Immortal Path; this is ordained by the Heavenly Dao.

The instant he opened his mouth.

As Heavenly Dao sensed, a surge of celestial fortune was drawn from the East King Duke and flowed toward Di Jun.

At this moment, all the innate deities and Innate Divine Being Dao Lords of the Primordial Great World raised their heads and looked up at the sky.

That is the turning of Mandate of Heaven, the changing of divine artifacts.

"East King Duke!"

"He's utterly unfilial!"

How dare he?

How dare I hand over the position of Dao Lord of the Immortal Path, the Head of Male Immortals, to Di Jun?

Inside the Jade Void Palace.

The Yuanshi Tianzun was furious.

The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his hand shimmered with the light of the sun, moon, and stars, blooming with golden flowers and shimmering with flowing waves.

There is a unique and ever-flowing Daoist essence that has existed since the World Creation and the evolution of eras.

The Celestial Venerable was furious, and the Jade Ruyi in his hand was about to be drawn but had not yet been drawn.

"Yuanshi!"

Don't overdo it.

Just then, a detached voice echoed from the Jade Void Palace.

A hint of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the Daoist of Morality Heavenly Venerate, and he sighed softly:

"East King Duke is the Head of Male Immortals in the Daoist realm, and naturally possesses the blessing of destiny."

"His conflict with Di Jun is Struggle for the Great Dao."

There is a cause and effect between the two.

"If you were to attack the East King Duke, you would be recklessly disrupting the workings of Heavenly Secrets, which would be disastrous."

Moreover, what reason did the Three Pure Ones have to attack the East King Duke?

As the founder of the Mystic Gate Immortal Path, he is the true ruler of the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate.

When the Daoist court of the Purple Mansion Continent was attacked by the Demon Clan Heavenly Court, we did not take action to help.

At the time when the Daoist Master recommended by the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate was defeated and killed, why would they take advantage of his misfortune and kill the East King Duke?

It was because he ruined the Three Pure Ones' plan.

Did the Mystic Gate Immortal Path attract Di Jun, a powerful dragon crossing the river?

From this point on, shall the Demon Clan Heavenly Court take control of all matters concerning the Immortal Path?

Did it weaken the Kunlun Mountain lineage's influence within the Mystic Gate Immortal Path?

Or was it because he transferred the immortal fortune to the Demon Clan Heavenly Court and to Di Jun, greatly enhancing the Demon Clan Heavenly Court's power? From then on, the Three Pure Ones were no longer able to scheme against the Demon Clan?

Some things, if you don't weigh them, they're nothing; but if you do, they're incredibly heavy.

The Orthodox Xuanmen, the Dao Ancestor.

Bearing this title and position, one should act with rules and principles, and adhere to ethical boundaries.

A cold glint flashed in Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes, but after a long while, he suppressed the surging anger in his heart and said in a deep voice:

"The East King Duke's actions have freed the Demon Clan Heavenly Court from its constraints, truly laying the foundation for unifying the universe."

This era is a golden age for immortals. No matter how prosperous your fortune is, if you do not gain the approval of the immortals, all your schemes will eventually turn to ashes.

Just like the Demon Clan Heavenly Court before today, it had the name of Heavenly Court, but no real Heavenly Court.

This is because most of the cultivators in this era are disciples of the immortal path, and the immortal path does not recognize this Heavenly Court, so the Heavenly Court's fortune is incomplete and it is difficult to achieve perfection.

But now, the Demon Clan has filled this gap.

"My two elder brothers!"

"After the battle in the Eastern Sea, the prosperity of the Demon Race Fortune is inevitable."

"With only the Kunlun Mountain Dao lineage, it is certainly difficult to contend with the Demon Clan race."

Daoist of Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerate pondered for a moment, and finally said:

"I'm afraid we'll have to concede some benefits to other Xuanmen lineages."

"In order to unite the ancestral masters and Dao Lords of the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate."

The Daoist of Morality Heavenly Venerate slowly closed his eyes:

"Wait a little longer."

"The Demon Clan is destined for great fortune."

"The Witch Clan at the Buzhou Mountain also upholds the legacy of the Pangu Clan."

"The war between the liches and the demons has only just begun."

"From now on, the struggle between the Lich King and the Demon King in the Primordial World will surely affect countless Xuanmen lineages."

"It would be most prudent for us to invite everyone then."

In this way, there will be less resistance and dissent.

After listening, Yuanshi Tianzun and Daoist of Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerate slowly nodded:

"Good!"

Wuyi Mountain.

Zhou Yuan and Zhen Yuanzi exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

'East King Duke...'

'Heroes of the world are truly as numerous as carp crossing a river.'

'By diverting the great fortune of immortality, not only were the Three Pure Daoists' secret plans disrupted.'

Moreover, it has truly thrust Di Jun and the Demon Clan into the eye of the storm.

Flowers bloom in vibrant colors, and oil is poured into a raging fire.

I wonder if the Demon Clan dares to stand at this critical juncture?

But the next moment, Zhou Yuan shook his head.

He gazed intently at the Eastern Sea, where his opportunity lay.

"He who bears the weight of the nation's destiny can become the king of the world."

Di Jun was incredibly perceptive.

He was well aware that the East King Duke's actions were not entirely well-intentioned.

But compared to the benefits and opportunities it contains, what are a few risks?

He looked at the East King Duke and smiled slightly:

"Fellow Daoist, your abandonment of darkness for light is truly heroic."

"It is only because karmic obstacles have arisen, and it is the will of Heaven that it is time for you, fellow Daoist, to depart for the mortal realm today."

"Fellow Daoist, please dissolve your body yourself."

The East King Duke felt a slight sense of relief.

They knew this was Di Jun returning the favor.

Although after his military service, who knows when he will return?

But at least there's still a glimmer of hope, isn't there?

"Thank you, fellow Daoist."

After bowing slightly, the East King Duke showed no further hesitation.

All grand ambitions and empires have come to naught!

"The Great Dao..."

A long, drawn-out sigh followed.

Blood rained down once more in the Grand Void.

This rain seemed like some kind of signal.

A new battle erupts amidst the starry sky.

All immortals of the Purple Mansion Continent who surrender will be pardoned for their past transgressions.

Anyone who resists will be executed.

The army collapsed like a house of cards.

With the East King Duke departing to the Void, the Dao Court's many Great Luo Dao Lords either died or fled.

Even the Queen Mother of the West could only hand over the [Jade Book] to the Demon Clan and then tear through the Grand Void to leave.

The Great God Lei Ze was suppressed by the Eastern Emperor Bell, wounded, and fled, disappearing into the Zhou Tian Universe, his whereabouts unknown.

I watched him build his magnificent mansion, I watched him host lavish banquets, and I watched his mansion crumble.

Looking back on the old dreams of the Immortal Court, all that remains is a vast expanse of white, truly pristine!

Di Jun stood with his hands behind his back in the Grand Void, overlooking the Primordial World universe, a surge of soaring ambition welling up within him.

"Who rules the fate of this vast land?!"

"I am the master of my destiny!"

"I am the master of my destiny!"

Since the beginning of the era, we have overcome numerous obstacles and hardships to reach where we are today.

How could Di Jun not be overjoyed!

But in the next moment, Di Jun's smug face suddenly froze.

His eyes were fixed on the Eastern Sea, filled with murderous intent.

There, Dragon King Ao Guang of the East Sea, set up an incense table and respectfully prayed:

"Since the Primordial Dragon-Han Crimson Bright Tribulation"

"The Water Element Losing Its Position, and the heaven and earth are unclear."

"Now there is the Taiyuan Heavenly Venerate, whose merits and virtues are abundant, who embodies the Heavenly Heart above and responds to the wishes of the people below."

"The Little Dragon, leading the Four Seas Dragon Clan, respectfully invites the Heavenly Venerable to ascend to the Black Emperor's Position and take charge of the Water Essence Daoist lineage."

"May Heaven and Earth bear witness, may the Heavenly Venerable bear witness."

As Ao Guang spoke.

A vast and incomparable surge of vital Water Essence suddenly converged towards Wuyi Mountain.

Within the Grand Void, the endless Water Element Dao Principles roared.

Amidst the wisps of Immortal Music and the resounding chants of Daoist teachings.

Endless radiance illuminated the universe, and a profound and mysterious Dao Fruit was about to emerge.

"Ao Guang, a mere little dragon, how dare you be so presumptuous!"

"Taiyuanzi, how dare you deceive me like this?!"

Di Jun was furious.

But just as he was about to intervene and interrupt the Water Element Displacement...

A sense of foreboding suddenly rose in his heart.

Di Jun suddenly turned around, his gaze falling on the Heavenly Court, his pupils contracted, and his face was full of disbelief.
