Empress Nuwa's Designs, the Netherworld Struggle
After the Empress Enthronement Ceremony the Heavenly Court was completely concluded.
All the immortals and gods who came to offer their congratulations dispersed.
Fuxi, however, was full of doubts and followed Nuwa into Emperor Xi 'Wa Imperial Palace.
"Second sister, haven't you always kept to yourself and not get involved in the internal affairs of the demon race?"
Why did they choose to help the Demon Emperor Di Jun this time, and subdue Kunpeng and the others?
Fuxi asked Nuwa with a question in mind.
It's no wonder Fuxi was confused, given the past relationships between him and his sister, and between Di Jun and Tai Yi.
It's mostly about mutual exploitation.
Di Jun used the names of the brother and sister, who in turn used the Heavenly Court to cultivate and escape troubles.
This time, the siblings clearly sided with the Di Jun brothers.
This was all Nuwa's idea.
"Brother, if Di Jun doesn't control the Heavenly Court and centralize power, how can the demon race and the Heavenly Court grow Great Demon?"
"Heavenly Court is not strong, how can we borrow its Heavenly Court's Fortune to quickly sever the Three Corpses and improve our cultivation?"
Nuwa began to explain to Fuxi.
The reason she chose to help Di Jun was because she felt that the power of the Heavenly Court had been too decentralized.
This led to instability in the Heavenly Court's Fortune, even though the power of the demon race continued to expand.
However, the growth of the Heavenly Court's Fortune is limited.
The Fortune that was allocated to Nuwa, one of the Four Emperors, was even less.
This is all a result of the disunity and factionalism within the demon race and the Heavenly Court.
As she spoke, a dazzling starlight flashed in Nuwa's eyes.
A powerful aura arose spontaneously.
"I intend to use the fortune of the demon Heavenly Court's Fortune to quickly advance my cultivation to the Peak Quasi-Sage."
To widen the gap in cultivation level between myself and others, and become the second Sage in the Primordial Heaven and Earth.
Fuxi was astonished by Nuwa's bold and ambitious words.
Everyone's attention is still focused on how to Severing Three Corpses and how to perfect the cultivation of Quasi-Sage!
Nuwa's goal has been set on vying for the position of the second Quasi-Sage in the Primordial Wilderness.
After pondering for a moment, Fuxi shook his head and said:
"We helped Di Jun consolidate power over the demon race and the Heavenly Court."
The biggest beneficiaries were the brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi.
Di Jun has now severed his Self Corpse, and his cultivation has reached the Late Quasi-Sage.
I'm afraid they'll reach the Peak Quasi-Sage even earlier than you, little sister."
Upon hearing this, Nuwa smiled confidently.
"Brother, rest assured, it is impossible for Di Jun to Attain Sainthood."
My only opponents have always been the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Jieyin and Zhunti, and Hong Yun.
"I only need to cultivate faster than those six people."
Upon hearing Nuwa's confident words, Fuxi's heart stirred.
This reminds me of the six people mentioned by Nuwa and the similarities between Nuwa herself Nuwa.
Fuxi was not stupid; he was also skilled at Heavenly Secrets Deduction.
The answer is obvious.
"I see, I see!"
At this moment, Fuxi felt a sense of inexplicable frustration.
It turns out that the position of Sage has already been monopolized by Hongjun Dao Ancestor.
What's the point of the rest of them practicing?
Nuwa, seeing that Fuxi had guessed the truth, comforted him:
"Brother, do not worry. Wait until I become a saint."
Are you still worried about not being able to obtain the item needed for enlightenment?
"You and I, brother and sister, will surely reach the pinnacle of the Great Dao together in the future."
"Too!"
Hearing Nuwa's words of comfort, Fuxi regained his spirits.
For Quasi-Sage, the Primordial Violet Qi is something that can only be encountered by chance, not sought after.
But to Sage, it might not be precious at all!
Fuxi secretly resolved that he must assist Di Jun in developing and strengthening the demon race and the Heavenly Court.
He helped his younger sister compete for the position of the Second Saint of Heaven and Earth.
After the Demon Emperor Di Jun subdued the Demon Saint, including the Old Ancestor Kunpeng.
The Heavenly Emperor's authority grew ever stronger.
In the Primordial Wilderness, countless demons dared not disobey the Heavenly Emperor's command.
Under the Heavenly Court's management, elites and geniuses from various demon tribes were continuously sent into the Heavenly Court.
With Di Jun holding supreme power in the Heavenly Court and among the demon race, his direct Subordinate Deities are increasing in number.
The Heavenly Emperor's power soon reached its peak.
This created a virtuous cycle.
The stronger the Heavenly Court and the greater its authority, the better the Heavenly Dao's blessing effect on the cultivation of the Heavenly Court's gods.
The higher the cultivation level of the Demon Gods in the Heavenly Court, the more stable and powerful the Heavenly Court's power becomes.
While the demon race was growing stronger, the Witch Clan in the Northern Domain was not idle either.
After the Witch Clan tribesmen fully adapted to the harsh environment of the Northern Domain.
The tentacles of the Witch Clan began to spread in all directions of the Northern Domain.
The endless stream of savage beasts, devoid of reason, became the nourishment for the growth of the Witch Clan.
The Netherworld and gloomy lands in the Northern Domain were also conquered one by one by the Witch Clan warriors.
During this process, the Witch Clan began to demonstrate their superb talent for exorcising ghosts.
The powerful blood and qi of the Witch Clan, tainted with malevolent energy, are practically the natural nemesis of the Netherworld and Ghost Deity.
The primordial Ghost Deity born from Malignant Ghost and malevolent energy were either slain or captured by the Witch Clan.
The Witch Clan, Earth Tribe Houtu resides, imprisoned tens of thousands of evil spirits and Ghost Deity.
Houtu, who was well-versed in the Earth Path, also developed a strong interest in these Netherworld Beings.
With the cultivation of Quasi-Sage and the intuition of an innate Ancestral Witch.
Houtu, in the depths of her being, felt that these Netherworld Beings were related to her Dao Path enlightenment.
It's just that I haven't found the right method yet, and I haven't been able to figure out the intricacies of it.
However, the connection between the Netherworld Path and the Earth Path has not been fully understood.
This did not prevent Houtu from creating a method for the Witch Clan to command evil spirits Ghost Deity.
One after another, the innate and acquired Ghost Deity quickly became powerful weapons in the hands of the Witch Clan.
It helped the Witch Clan rapidly expand its territory in the Northern Domain.
With savage beasts in one hand and Ghost Deity in the other, these became the two great treasures that enabled the Witch Clan to grow stronger.
Although it is only a part of the Northern Domain, it cannot compare to the demon race's ability to expand throughout the four corners of the Primordial Wilderness.
However, the power of the Witch Clan's bloodline is astonishing, and with the entire population of the Northern Domain now serving as soldiers, they have already shown signs of resurgence.
When the Witch Clan in the Northern Domain gained control of the power of Ghost Deity and gods.
Kunlun Mountain, within Hua Tian Peak.
Luo Xuan, Quasi-Sage, resides in the Netherworld Grotto-Heaven, perched beneath the Netherworld Ghost Willow Tree.
It is also a change in the Great Dao that is felt in the heart.
He looked up towards the Primordial Wilderness north, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
With Luo Qing's memories present, Luo Xuan naturally knew what in the north could trigger him at this moment.
"Was the Witch Clan being forced into the Northern Domain, which ironically accelerated the connection between Houtu and Yin Netherworld?"
A thoughtful look flashed in Luo Xuan's pair of dark golden tiger eyes.
This is the chain reaction of Luo Qing's participation in the first war between the Lich Kings.
Following the original trajectory, the Witch Clan had gained the upper hand in the first two Witch-Demon War.
Houtu's contact with matters of the Yin Netherworld likely occurred close to the time of the great war between the Lich King and the Demon King.
His cultivation had reached its limit, making it difficult to Attain Sainthood.
That's why Houtu came up with the idea of becoming a saint in the Netherworld.
Unfortunately, it's unclear whether he was tricked by the Heavenly Dao or by the Hongjun Dao Ancestor.
He Merge with Dao, transforming into the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk.
This indirectly led to the Witch Clan perishing together with the demon tribe in the subsequent great war between the Wu and the demons.
Now, because of Luo Qing, Netherworld Ghost Deity has come into contact with the spirits and deities of the Houtu ahead of time.
This led to many unknown changes on Luo Xuan's Path of Attaining the Dao.
"The path to Netherworld in the netherworld is fraught with great terror."
It is an omen that will cause even immortals and gods to shed blood, and bring misfortune to all living beings.
The Path of Attaining the Dao is indeed not so simple; this is probably one of the Dao Tribulation along the way!
Luo Xuan sat cross-legged under the ghost willow tree, lost in thought.
There will inevitably be a struggle between it and Houtu on the path to enlightenment.
