Displacement

"Our patriarchs are bound by the ancient Dao Ancestor's decree that they cannot arbitrarily interfere in the affairs of the Witch and Demon Clans."

"The power of the Demon Clan is growing stronger every day, and the Heavenly Emperor's authority is also increasing."

"Di Jun wishes to use [the Moon] and [the Sun] to complete his position as the Heavenly Emperor."

"This humble Daoist priest cannot turn a blind eye and remain indifferent!"

This Dao Lord hails from the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate. He was a figure who attained enlightenment in the ancient times and decisively embraced the tide of immortality in the New Era, thus holding an extremely high position within the ancestral temple.

As someone who enjoys the immortal fortune of the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate, he naturally hopes that the Xuanmen will flourish and become the most powerful force in the Primordial World.

The Witch Clan and the Demon Clan were all his enemies who stood in his way.

With these thoughts in mind, the Dao Lord's heart stirred slightly.

Then a golden jade bracelet, shimmering with five colors, flowed through the five elements and leaped into the Grand Void. An invisible energy gathered between the [Taiyin] and [Taiyang] through the bracelet.

After all this is done.

With a flick of his sleeve, the Dao Lord retrieved the magic bracelet.

He then cast Magic Incantation to conceal the traces of his grotto and went to Secluded Cultivation in the boundless void sea.

'Hmph~'

'Although I am no match for you.'

'But it's still possible to increase the power of [Taiyin] and [Taiyang] by one or two points.'

Xuanwei Dao Lord chuckled lightly, raising an eyebrow as he gazed at the powerful Demon Clan stirring up Wind and Thunder and thunder in the Grand Void.

Let's go!

The next instant, as his body slowly disappeared into the Grand Void.

Several divine powers suddenly exploded where they were originally located, flashing brilliant divine light in the sky.

"Xuanwei, you're asking for death!"

The Demon Clan race's holy beings gazed at the ever-growing [Taiyin] and [Taiyang] in the Grand Void, their hearts filled with extreme anger.

Within these twelve cycles.

The Witch and Demon Clans roam the universe, and no one dares to show them any respect.

Now, at this crucial juncture, Daoist Dao Lord actually dares to attack the Demon Clan race.

This not only angered the powerful Demon Clan, but also stirred a subtle unease within them.

Could it be...?

'Is the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate already getting restless?'

'But who gave them the audacity?'

Twelve Yuanhui ago.

Several Mystic Gate Ancestor battled the Heavenly Emperor and the Twelve Ancestor Witches.

The Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate sect was outmaneuvered and ultimately had no choice but to resign.

Even with the intervention of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the Witch and Demon sects remained prominent for twelve eons.

Twelve cycles have passed.

The foundation and strength of the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan have undergone earth-shattering changes.

Both races are filled with powerful individuals.

It's far from what it used to be.

In contrast Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate sect has lost its lineage and its fortunes have declined.

It's not even as good as it used to be.

'So, how dare they?'

Amidst the doubts of the Demon Clan's holy gods.

Within the Grand Void, streaks of spiritual light flickered.

Above the heavens, countless strange phenomena converged to form a long river of immortal fortune, which was then bestowed upon [Taiyin] and [Taiyang].

All the Dao Lord of the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate descended to the scene, enhancing the power of [Taiyin] and [Taiyang].

The balance that had been forcibly created by the holy beings of the Demon Clan race was instantly shattered.

A detached and lofty aura suddenly descended upon the Ling Xiao Palace.

At this moment, Di Jun felt the deep malice of the Sun Star and the Taiyin Star.

It seemed that at any moment, they would be rejected by the sun and moon, and become enemies of the Zhou Tian Star Dou.

Pangu Divine Hall.

Zhu Rong gazed at the scene above the sky, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

"Sun..."

The sun is a symbol of ultimate yang and pure yang.

'I cultivate the virtue of fire; can I attain the Dao of Pure Yang?'

Xuanming, standing beside him, looked at Taiyin thoughtfully.

"Brother."

"Should we lend a helping hand to the Heavenly Court?"

"After all, twelve cycles will have passed."

"Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate..."

Zhu Jiuyin pondered for a moment and said:

"In the past, only by joining forces could the Witch and Demon Clans suppress the Xuanmen."

"If the Demon Clan loses its heavenly throne today, Di Jun will fall from his position as Heavenly Emperor."

"I fear our people cannot stand alone."

Di Jiang withdrew his gaze from the Grand Void.

After a moment of silence.

A glint of something eerie flashed in his eyes.

"Let's take another look."

"Let's take another look..."

The Witch Clan and the Demon Clan have never been staunch allies; they are rivals who have been forced to join forces due to external pressure.

Di Jiang did not want to see Di Jun achieve the perfect Heavenly Emperor's position, complete one cycle of the Heavenly Realm, and break free from the shackles of his bondage.

However, they also wouldn't take advantage of the situation at this moment, causing discord between the witches and demons, leading to a major war, which would benefit the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate.

If Di Jun truly cannot maintain his position Heavenly Emperor...

'I wonder how likely it is that our race can successfully annex the Demon Clan?!'

'A lose-lose situation is undesirable.'

'But if Heavenly Dao Demon Clan race loses its great fortune after this incident, it's not impossible for them to make some plans.'

If we can sweep away the Demon Clan race in the blink of an eye, before the great powers of the Primordial World can react, and unify the Primordial Great World, then even the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate sect will not be able to threaten the status of the Witch Clan.

It remains to be seen what extent Di Jun and the Demon Clan can accomplish in this turmoil.

One wrong move, and the whole game is lost.

"All our efforts were in vain, all our efforts were in vain!"

Di Jun gazed at the [Taiyin] and [Taiyang] symbols that shone with the divine light of the sun and the moon, and felt extremely frustrated.

He had planned everything perfectly.

Using the power of the Heavenly Court, the [Eastern Emperor Bell] was used to suppress the authority of the Moon and the Sun.

Furthermore, their proximity to the Sun Star and Taiyin Star is enough to obscure the perception of these two celestial bodies.

Subtly and gradually seizing the power of [Taiyin] and [Taiyang] would have been foolproof.

Unexpectedly, these changes occurred.

"It's simply that the brilliance of the Sun Star and the Taiyin Star is too dazzling."

"Even with the Heavenly Court's fortune and merits, it still cannot obscure the Heavenly Secrets."

"Or is someone stirring things up?"

Di Jun pondered his current situation with a cold expression.

A series of suspects flashed through his mind.

But in the end...

He severed all resentment, all fear, all doubt and hatred.

Only a wisp of peace remained in the Primordial Spirit Consciousness Sea.

"So be it, so be it."

"In the end, it is my fortune that is insufficient to accomplish this great undertaking."

As Di Jun sighed.

The pure yang energy within Lingxiao instantly transformed into a raging inferno, illuminating the entire universe in a mere instant.

In the blazing pure yang fire.

Di Jun smiled at Chang Xi and Xi He:

"Since the Moon and the Sun have already grown weary of us..."

"Then let us, your descendants, inherit the power over the moon and the sun."

Then, amidst the complex expressions on Chang Xi and Xi He's faces...

He pointed his finger towards the Grand Void.

Instantly.

Two streams of energy were then drawn from Chang Xi and Xi He's bodies and interacted with the Pure Yang Dao Domain that permeated Lingxiao.

Between the convergence of Qi, wisps of Yin and Yang Qi overflow.

I don't know how much time passed.

The commotion in the sky finally subsided.

Countless powerful beings gazed with complex expressions at the twelve moons that exuded the aura of Yin within the Grand Void.

And the ten suns that surround the True Sun Fire.

"Knowing it's impossible, yet refraining from doing it."

"Isn't that also a kind of wisdom?!"

Di Jun transferred all of his and Xi He's solar authority to the ten little golden crows.

Chang Xi's Yin authority rests on the twelve moons.

At the moment when Di Jun, Chang Xi, and Xi He transferred their own power.

The Sun Star and Taiyin Star stars in the sky also simultaneously concealed their brilliance.

The birth of a new ruler of the Sun Star and Taiyin Star is enough to extinguish the wrath of the Moon and the Sun.

Even though the newly emerging power holders have close ties with Di Jun and others, and are of the same lineage.

Di Jun, Xi He, and Chang Xi gazed at the Sun Star and Taiyin Stars, feeling an extreme sense of rejection and indifference.

A sense of emptiness washed over me.

They are the Innate Divine Being born of the sun and the moon.

It has an extremely close relationship with the sun and the moon.

And from this day forward...

Things will never be the same again.

They are no longer close to the sun and the moon.

The relationship between the two is even less close than that between ordinary living beings.

After all, the sun and moon shine upon all living things, treating everything equally.

They alone have made the sun and moon weary.

Feel the vibrant life emanating from the ten little golden crows and twelve little moon rabbits.

Di Jun took Chang Xi and Xi He's hands and said gently:

"This is already the best possible outcome."

"The authority of the sun and the moon still rests in my household."

"It's not bad, it's not bad at all!"

Xi He and Chang Xi sensed their fallen realm and the faintly unstable aura surrounding Di Jun.

He smiled bitterly to himself.

A sudden wave of regret washed over me.

If...

They immediately shook their heads, suppressing all their emotions, and smiled calmly and firmly:

"The Lunar and Solar are still in my home."

"Wait until they are strong enough."

"Then the affairs of the realm remain in Your Majesty's hands."

The golden crow flies, the jade rabbit runs.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years have passed.

The Pure Land, Mount Sumeru.

The water in the [Eight Treasures Merit Pool] murmurs softly, and a misty, Mysterious Yellow Qi radiates a soft glow.

The Daoist Jieyin and the Daoist Zhunti were seated cross-legged on the lotus platform.

Countless worlds surround him, and countless beings pray. Behind his head, a halo like the moon shines, one after another, illuminating the entire Pure Land of Lapis Lazuli.

Beneath the Bodhi Tree, golden flowers bloom in all directions, each flower a world, each leaf a universe, filled with disciples and followers from Mount Sumeru, giving rise to layers of pure lands.

"I observe the Primordial Great Land."

"Our disciples of the Immortal Path are displaced and homeless."

"Often deceived by liches."

"All sentient beings are drowning in the sea of suffering, and it is difficult to find a way to transcend it."

"Kinnara".

"Are you all willing to leave the Pure Land of Lapis Lazuli, to be tainted by the darkness of the mortal world, to guide my disciples, and to quickly attain ultimate bliss?"

As Daoist Zhunti spoke.

The layers of strange phenomena before their eyes shattered like a dream, leaving only Kinnara and a group of Sumeru disciples sitting cross-legged.

"May I ask, Venerable One?"

"What should we do after we descend the mountain?"

The Daoist Zhunti smiled as he held up a flower:

"To do the same things that the Western Demonic Cult did during the ancient Dragon-Han Great Tribulation."

"This will surely save Xuanmen disciples from their suffering."

"Accumulate merits and dissolve karmic obstacles."

Kinnara's eyes flickered, and he clasped his hands together respectfully, saying:

"Your Excellency, please allow me to speak."

"Our cultivation is low; if we were to disguise ourselves as Demon Clan, we fear the two clans' leaders would discover us."

The Daoist Zhunti laughed and said:

"It's alright, it's alright."

"You may proceed as you see fit."

"This humble Daoist priest will naturally conceal the Heavenly Secrets for you."

Kinnara had no choice but to obey.

"Disciples follow the Imperial Decree."

Watching Kinnara and the others leave, Daoist Zhunti's expression turned indifferent.

"The members of the Demonic Sect are cunning and treacherous."

"How could the fortune and merit of Mount Sumeru be so easily enjoyed?"

"Since I have received the protection of the Mount Sumeru lineage, I should naturally repay the lineage's karmic debts and be driven by it."

Kinnara and other members of the Western Demonic Cult secretly joined the Mount Sumeru lineage.

Though the sea of suffering is boundless, turning back is the shore.

But in the eyes of Jieyin and Zhunti, these people are just waste materials and can never be included in the true lineage of Daoism.

Now, sending them down the mountain to use the demonic sect's methods of inciting emotions and desires to divide and weaken the witches and demons, and even to create conflict between the two races, is making the best use of their talents.

"Since the sun and moon lost their positions."

"It's as if the world is missing a pair of eyes that can survey the Zhou Tian Universe and record everything within and beyond time and space."

"I can finally breathe a long sigh of relief."

Since twelve Yuanhui ago, the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate has retreated to a grotto-heaven, and the fortunes of the Witch and Demon Clans have soared like a rainbow.

The power of the sun and moon in the Grand Void also surged accordingly.

Its inspection tour covered the entire sky.

Every trace, however subtle, is clearly revealed and understood.

Now, Di Jun, Chang Xi, Xi He have lost their authority over the Sun and the Moon.

It's as if the Demon Clan Heavenly Court is missing a pair of eyes.

He became completely blind from that point on.

"The Three Pure Ones are indeed the Pangu's True Lineage."

"Their methods are truly terrifying."

Daoist Zhunti spoke softly, his tone revealing his apprehension towards the Three Pure Daoists.

"Good! Good!"

The Daoist Jieyin lowered his eyes:

"Junior brother, there's no need to overthink it."

"Today, our enemies are still the Witch and Demon Clans."

He was still friends with the Three Pure Daoists, not enemies.

He spoke indifferently, unwilling to continue the topic.

"The Demon Clan's control over heaven and earth is now weakening."

"Now is the time for us to act."

"Preparations for the creation of the Human Race can now begin."

Daoist Zhunti's eyes lit up:

"Really?"

It is important to understand that the emergence of the Human Race and the struggle for the right to rule Human Dao are not only about who will be the protagonist of this Human Dao, but also about their Primordial Grand Unity Dao Fruit.

Now that he heard that things were looking Daoist Zhunti not be overjoyed?

The Daoist Jieyin frowned slightly:

"Only."

"Before doing this."

"We still need to turn the liches against each other."

"Only in this way can the Human Race find a foothold."

However, turning a lich against another is incredibly difficult.

Even if the Daoist Zhunti sent Kinnara and others to infiltrate the Witch and Demon Clans and do things that distort the truth, it would only cause the lower-level Wu and Yao to turn against each other. It would take many more years before it could affect the upper echelons of the Witch Clan and Demon Clans.

Moreover, given the intelligence of Di Jun Di Jiang, they are unlikely to resort to violence and ruin the current situation.

The Daoist Zhunti gazed at the sun high in the sky above the Grand Void and chuckled softly:

"Don't worry, senior brother."

"Ordinary methods cannot ruin the fortunes of the Witch and Demon Clans races."

"But..."

"Offended Heaven, there is no point in praying."

"The sun's radiance shines upon the earth; this is a Great Merit."

"But the light of one sun is enough to be dazzling."

"If only there were more great suns hanging high in the sky."

"Then things will inevitably turn into their opposites, and it will be a misfortune rather than a blessing."

"When the great sun that soars through the sky collides with the Witch Clan that rules the earth."

"The final situation..."

"Even Di Jun and Di Jiang would have difficulty controlling this!"
