The Death Blade, and the Monkey Enters Heaven!

Dao Seeking Palace, Ye Xuan's face showed neither sorrow nor joy. As one-tenth of the Origin Power merged into his physical body, one-tenth of his understanding of the Balancing Law also entered his primordial spirit.

Holding a Jade Plate Fragment, Ye Xuan's eyes flashed with endless Wisdom Light. In the eyes of the Yin-Yang Demon God and others, Yin-Yang and the Five Elements are the foundation of all things. Their meaning lies in mutual generation and mutual restraint, and they take this to the extreme, using the Great Dao of Yin-Yang to construct all things in reverse.

However, in Ye Xuan's view, the essence of the Great Dao of Yin-Yang is opposition. All things are divided into Yin and Yang, and there are opposing sides. Even the Three Thousand Great Daos are mutually opposed and are all encompassed by the Great Dao of Yin-Yang.

However, Ye Xuan's Great Dao of Yin-Yang only had opposition, but he could not truly use it freely.

With the attainment of the One-Stop Balance Law, once it is fully comprehended, the Great Dao of Yin-Yang also produces endless phenomena.

Behind Ye Xuan's head, a black and white intertwined yin-yang Dharma Idol froze for a moment, and a scale, entirely gray and seemingly crafted from endless Chaos Qi, slowly emerged from nothingness.

At both ends of the scale, the left side holds the pure yang fire of the Golden Crow, and the right side receives the extreme yin frost of the jade rabbit.

As Ye Xuan mastered most of the three Three Thousand Great Daos Laws in the Three Thousand Heavens, the Yin-Yang Great Dao of Yin-Yang, which had been somewhat out of control, seemed to be smoothed out by an invisible hand after the appearance of the balance. In the meantime, a violent aura of the Great Dao, which seemed capable of crushing the heavens, was integrated into the strange balance.

"Yin and Yang are the warp, and balance is the weft. Without balance, Yin and Yang are lost; with balance, all things are born!"

Ye Xuan closed his eyes slightly and uttered a soft incantation.

With the mastery of the One-Ten Balance Law, Ye Xuan 'Ye Xuan control over the Great Dao of Yin-Yang also leaped to an incredible level.

The Way of Balance is to find balance within imbalance.

If Ye Xuan comprehends the Three Thousand Great Daos, and one of the Great Dao Laws becomes too powerful and eventually becomes unbalanced, then once it returns to equilibrium, the Way of Balance will become even more powerful.

Thinking of this, a strange expression appeared on Ye Xuan's face.

If that's the case, then mastering the Primordial World Heavenly Dao and choosing the Way of Balance is indeed a good option.

Holding the Jade Plate Fragment, the power of law wielded by Daoist Hongjun is likely even greater than that of Ye Xuan.

However, the other party did not possess Ye Xuan's unparalleled talent. If he wanted to integrate his understanding of the Three Thousand Laws into himself, the only thing he could control was the Way of Balance.

By mastering the Way of Balance, one can organize the Great Dao Laws and stabilize oneself at the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan nodded in agreement.

However, this is merely a trick; it only prevents the opponent from going berserk. The opponent still hasn't fully mastered it or used it freely. In this respect, the opponent will never catch up with Ye Xuan.

Shaking his head, Ye Xuan also felt a hint of contempt for Daoist Hongjun.

It may look beautiful on the outside, but it's rotten inside.

It looks powerful, but it's all show and no substance; it's all just a clever trick.

"This Great Dao Laws does offer me a slight benefit."

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan turned his gaze back to his Inner World.

This Inner World was originally just a phantom projected by Ye Xuan using the Way of Yin and Yang.

However, as the power of balance was integrated into it, this Primordial World Inner World became as if it were the real Primordial World world. The space stabilized, and the Innate Spiritual Qi became increasingly abundant. If the real Primordial World world belonged to the yang side, Ye Xuan's Inner World was the yin side. One yin and one yang, this is called balance.

This Great Dao is exceptionally compatible with the Great Dao of Yin-Yang, instantly helping Ye Xuan perfect his Great Dao.

"Wonderful!"

Ye Xuan laughed loudly. His Inner World was nothing but a phantom, but the true Primordial World was created by Pangu, who was at the level of Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal.

If his power could be used to help Ye Xuan solidify his Inner World, it would be of great benefit to Ye Xuan. He doesn't need to take half of his power, but even taking one-tenth of it would help Ye Xuan advance to the Primordial Nine Heavens Realm in one go.

"Boom!"

As he pondered, in the Primordial World projection created by his brushstrokes, the mountains, rivers, and vegetation, which originally seemed somewhat ethereal, suddenly gained a sense of realism as profound as the earth itself.

The Way of Balance, like an invisible Sea-Calming Divine Needle or a scale, begins to transfer the power of the Primordial World world into the Inner World.

Furthermore, in the true Primordial World, Hongjun, the Spokesperson of Heavenly Dao, followed the Way of Balance.

Faced with this, the Primordial World was utterly powerless to retaliate.

Standing in the Dao Seeking Palace, Ye Xuan did not exude a world-destroying pressure; instead, he revealed a sense of the unity of all laws.

The power within him, fed back by this power, also reached a new level, directly saving him hundreds of millions of years of arduous cultivation.

Ye Xuan slowly spread his five fingers, and in his palm, black and white energy intertwined like twin lotus flowers, eventually condensing into a black and white lotus platform under the baptism of the Way of Balance.

This seed represents the fact that within its Dao Fruit, the Three Thousand Great Daos are no longer in conflict and have reached a state of balance.

"This Way of Balance truly has its unique aspects."

"It's a bit of a waste for Daoist Hongjun to have such talent..."

In an instant, Ye Xuan couldn't help but have the thought of killing and seizing the treasure, wanting to take away his position Dao Lord Balance.

However, considering the opponent's strength, which had already reached the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal, Ye Xuan calmed down.

Once one's own strength reaches the level of Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal, seizing the position of Dao Lord will be just as easy.

Just as Ye Xuan was pondering, another Electronic Sound entered his ears.

[Ding-dong!]

[Detection indicates that due to Sun Wukong's alteration of the Book of Life and Death and his theft of the Ruyi Sea-Calming Divine Needle), the Four Seas Dragon Kings and the Ten Yama Kings of Heavenly Court have joined forces and gone to the Heavenly Court to request their assistance in suppressing the demon monkey. Please select from the options below.]

[Option 1: Help the Heavenly Court suppress the demon monkey, complete the mission, and you will receive the Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Luopo Bell.]

[Option Two: Ignore it, let it develop, complete the task, and you will receive Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Death Blade.]

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan's face showed a thoughtful expression. The Luopo Bell and the Death Blade were both Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Among them, the Luopo Bell is a treasure of the Soul Path. For those with a primordial spirit and soul, a gentle shake is all it takes to render them powerless to fight back.

As for the Death Blade, it appears to be a treasure incarnate of the Death Demon God.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Xuan spoke directly.

Choose the second option and ignore it.

There seem to be two options, but even if it were the powerful Ye Xuan, in his Late-Saint Stage, were to help the Jade Emperor subdue Sun Wukong, even Hongjun himself wouldn't have the face to do so, let alone a mere attendant?

Furthermore, even if one were to infiltrate the Heavenly Court, Daoist Yun Xiao, who himself had attained sainthood Heavenly Court, would not intervene, let alone Ye Xuan. He immediately fell silent.

After Ye Xuan made his choice, another Electronic Sound entered his ears.

[Ding-dong!]

[The host has chosen to ignore this and let things develop as they will. The Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Death Blade, is being issued. Please inspect it yourself.]

"Buzz!"

In the void, a frost blade as thin as a cicada's wing also fell into Ye Xuan's hand.

After taking a look, Ye Xuan's face showed a hint of satisfaction.

The Death Blade, just as one might imagine, is indeed the most precious treasure of the Death Demon God.

But!

However, it is not its inherent treasure.

The Death Demon God possesses two companion spirit treasures, one representing endless death and the other representing predetermined death.

An untimely death is an accidental death, while a predetermined death is death from one's own Fate.

The Death Demon God was not satisfied with either of these two spiritual treasures. He wanted to forge a supreme treasure to slaughter Three Thousand Demon Gods, namely the Death Blade. He wanted to slaughter Three Thousand Demon Gods, bring death with him, and step into the realm of the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal in one breath.

However, he died before he could achieve his goals, perishing in the Creation Tribulation before he could even display his talents.

Ye Xuan: "..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan was speechless. With a single swing of Pangu's axe, countless people's dreams of invincibility were shattered. With one swing, even the Death Demon God himself died, and his natal treasure could not escape, falling into the endless Chaos Qi.

Ye Xuan examined this Innate Spiritual Treasure and felt it wouldn't be of much use to him. The Way of Reincarnation was even greater than the Above the Great Dao of Death, and it was far superior in both its conception and its inherent mysteries.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan also thought of someone, who had a disciple under his tutelage.

Daoist Yuan Yao!

Ye Xuan's sect has six disciples: two are Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, and two are stuck at the Half-Saint realm.

As for Golden Cicada and Bi Xiao Daoren, they are still some distance away.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan also raised his hand and waved the Death Blade, which then entered the Secluded Cultivation place of Daoist Yuan Yao.

"Yuan Yao!"

"This Innate Spiritual Treasure is called the Death Blade. It was once the natal treasure of the Death Demon God. You should study it carefully."

Upon hearing this, Daoist Yuan Yao, who was in Secluded Cultivation, looked at the delicate, cicada-wing-thin spiritual treasure in his palm and was overjoyed.

If he were to obtain the Death Demon God's natal treasure, it would be of some benefit to Daoist Yuan Yao's comprehension of the laws of Great Dao of Life.

"Yes, disciple thanks Master, and will never fail Master's high expectations."

"Um!"

Seeing this, Ye Xuan nodded and went straight into Secluded Cultivation.

On the other side, inside the Lingxiao Treasure Hall high in the sky.

The Haotian the Supreme sat high in the head seat, surrounded by the Nine Dragon True Qi, his divine power as vast as the sea.

Below, the Four Seas Dragon Kings and the Ten Yama Kings were all emaciated and prostrated themselves on the ground, pleading.

"Your Great Heavenly Venerate, the demon monkey of Flower-Fruit Mountain is lawless. First, he forcibly took the Sea-Calming Divine Needle, stealing our most precious treasure. Then, he wreaked havoc in the Senluo Hall, wantonly scribbling on the Book of Life and Death, causing the collapse of the Yin-Yang Order and chaos in the lifespan of all living beings. We humbly beseech Your Majesty to take charge and capture and kill the demon monkey."

"Furthermore, the demon monkey even spoke disrespectfully to the Sage..."

Upon hearing this, Haotian's eyes narrowed slightly, shooting out two cold beams that pierced the sky as he looked at King Yama of Hell, who had spoken below. "That monkey is a simpleton, so reckless," Haotian thought. "Does Yama, the King Yama, really have Sage as his backer?"

Upon hearing this, King Yama realized he had spoken out of turn, and held his breath, not daring to utter a sound.

"Snort!"

"What a wicked monkey! Rest assured, my beloved ministers, I will certainly avenge you all."

"By imperial Imperial Edict, I order Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, to lead 100,000 heavenly soldiers to the Lower Realm and capture the demon!"

As for the matter of insulting the Sage, Haotian pretended not to hear it. If the monkey insulted the Sage again in public, wouldn't he be dragging himself down with him? So he immediately ordered Heavenly King Li to arrest the other party.

In an instant, golden armor gleamed, and war drums thundered.

On Flower-Fruit Mountain, Sun Wukong saw 100,000 heavenly soldiers pressing down from the clouds, but instead of being afraid, he was filled with fighting spirit.

The Great Sage, who had sworn brotherhood with him, saw that the Heavenly Court was attacking and, sensing the danger, made an excuse to escape.

Only Sun Wukong, alone with his staff, stood at the pinnacle.

The Giant Spirit God was the first to strike, but was lightly struck by the Divine Needle Iron, turning into a meteor that flew tens of thousands of meters away.

Nezha knew the inside story, but he only went through the motions, feinting an attack before retreating.

As for Li Jing, his face turned ashen as he watched this scene, but he dared not make a move. If the Exquisite Pagoda slipped from his hand, the rebellious Third Prince would surely stab him in the back.

The 100,000 heavenly soldiers, each with their own agendas, went through the motions but didn't put in any real effort, and were ultimately defeated by Sun Wukong, losing their armor and weapons and returning to Heavenly Court.

Sun Wukong stood atop a cloud, watching the retreating Heavenly Court army, his arrogance growing even stronger.

When the news reached the Heavenly Court, the Haotian was once again enraged.

This capture of the demon monkey was a calculated move.

But surely it's not fair that he was captured the moment they met? What would become of the Heavenly Court's reputation?

Seeing this, Haotian's face showed displeasure.

"This mere monkey dares to provoke the Heavenly Court; who is willing to fight again?"

However, no one was willing to the Lower Realm and participate.

Seeing that no one replied, Grand White Venus, among the gods, stepped forward with a compassionate expression.

"Your Majesty, Heaven cherishes life. This Stone Monkey is born holy and possesses unparalleled fortune. If we could summon him to serve in our Heavenly Court, it would not only fulfill Your Majesty's magnanimity but also teach the barbarians of the mountains. It would be a wonderful thing."

Haotian's eyes were deep, and he went along with it.

"Good!"

"The matter of Zhao'an shall be handled by my beloved Minister Taibai."

"However, the divine positions in the Heavenly Court were all established when the gods were Investiture of the Gods. How can we place them here?"

Upon hearing this, Grand White Venus chuckled and spoke.

"His Your Majesty!"

"How could this barbarian monkey possibly know what position he holds? In the Heavenly Court, he can simply be granted a divine post at will."

"As long as no one tells it what its official rank is, why would it be dissatisfied?"

"Good!"

Upon hearing this, Haotian showed a hint of satisfaction and immediately asked.

"What other unused divine positions are there in the Heavenly Court?"

"Your Majesty, we also need a Bimawen."

Upon hearing this, Lord of Martial Virtue replied.

"That's feasible!"

"If that's the case, then let's appoint the monkey demon as the Bimawen!"

Venus descended to the Grand White Venus realm upon receiving the imperial decree. In the Water Curtain Cave Lower Realm, he encountered the arrogant Sun Wukong and explained his purpose.

"To become an official in the imperial court?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong circled Grand White Venus Jinxing twice with suspicion before speaking.

"Just a while ago, 100,000 heavenly soldiers captured me, and now they're inviting me to heaven again. Are they playing a trick to lure me into a trap?"

"Once I enter the Heavenly Court, I only need to smash a cup as a signal, and three hundred Righteous Gods will come to capture me alive?"

Upon hearing this, Grand White Venus's lips twitched slightly. He thought to himself that this monkey was quite the performer. If he really wanted to subdue the other party, why would he need to smash a cup? Back then, a peach was enough to suppress someone. He immediately smiled bitterly.

"Your Majesty is too kind. The Heavenly Venerable's words are law, and his word is as good as gold. He would never break his promise. The Heavenly Court is recruiting many talented people. When the Great Sage goes there, he will surely have duties to perform."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong thought of the Old Ox and the others, none of whom held official positions in the Heavenly Court. He couldn't help but feel a little vain. If he were a high-ranking official, why would he be the seventh? He would definitely be the eldest!

He immediately picked up the Golden Cudgel, intending to follow Grand White Venus straight to the South Heavenly Gate, ready to cleanse himself of his sins and become a Righteous Gods in the Heavenly Court.
