The Nether River Attains the Dao, Becoming the Primordial World's Ninth

Donghua's words, "Prove the Dao," left Minghe bewildered. He was suppressed and unable to move, and the Three Pure Ones also yielded.

He felt he had no hope of attaining enlightenment; the most likely outcome was that he would be recruited by the Heavenly Court, or even perish and lose his soul. But to his surprise, Donghua directly allowed him to attain enlightenment.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say.

Upon seeing this, Donghua jokingly asked, "What? Minghe can't attain enlightenment?"

"Ha ha..."

The crowd above the Blood Sea burst into laughter, their laughter a mixture of mockery and genuine envy.

No matter how much face Minghe loses today, he will regain all the face he lost after today.

Prove the Way and Attain Sainthood!

This is the lifelong, unwavering pursuit of every cultivator.

What made them even more envious was that although Minghe lost some face, Donghua made up for it all.

That is to let the Minghe attain Attain Sainthood!

Don't be fooled by Minghe's previous confident assertion that he would definitely attain enlightenment; whether he succeeds or not is not entirely certain.

The most likely outcome is breaking through to the Quasi-Saint realm, and the best result is Attain Hunyuan Dao.

But now Donghua has personally promised that he can attain Attain Sainthood.

Hun Yuan is not Saint, but Saint is definitely Hun Yuan.

That's what makes them envious.

To give an example, Hun Yuan was among the strongest people in the Primordial Wilderness, but besides being the strongest, the Saint were also the rulers of the Primordial Wilderness.

One is the company's CEO.

The other is a director who also serves as CEO.

That's the difference!

Minghe bowed deeply to Donghua with great emotion and said, "Your subject Minghe thanks the Great Heavenly Venerate Venerable and is willing to die for you."

Donghua nodded slightly, accepting the bow from Minghe.

At this moment, Minghe stopped being coy and flew to the side of Mosquito Daoist's true form.

The Twelve Grades Karma Red Lotus appeared, and the powerful karmic fire bombarded the Mosquito Daoist's body.

Minghe's path to enlightenment was somewhat opportunistic. He lacked the accumulated knowledge of Donghua Nuwa, the background of the Three Pure Ones, and the great wisdom and perseverance of Jieyin and Zhunti.

But it barely qualifies!

As the karmic fire tempered the Mosquito Daoist, his true form became even more refined, and Minghe stood on a red lotus in the Sky Vault.

At this moment, his heart was filled with extremely complex emotions, yet he appeared remarkably calm.

The Great Dao Power was released without restraint, spreading throughout the Primordial World.

The Starry Sky, the Heaven Realm, the earth, the Netherworld Earth Realm, and the Primordial Wilderness world are all filled with the power of slaughter and the power of reincarnation.

At this moment, the powers of the Immortal, God, and Demon Paths— immortal, divine, and demonic—emerged simultaneously within Minghe's body. The Divine Dao was dominated by the benevolent corpse, the immortal Immortal Dao by the Attachment Corpse- holder, and Devil Dao Evil Corpse. The power of the three paths overwhelmed the Sky Vault.

Minghe originally cultivated both the immortal and demonic paths, but his cultivation in the divine Divine Dao had long since fallen behind. However, after Donghua Investiture of the Gods position, he barely managed to meet the standard.

"Melt!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Minghe began to circulate the Great Dao within his body. The Three Flowers appeared in unison, the Five Elements converged, and Yin Yin-Yang maintained their balance. These three forces are the foundation of all living things, as well as the foundation of the Dao and the world.

As the Minghe circulates the Great Dao, the powers of the Immortal, God, and Demon Paths begin to merge, forming a state of primordial Hun Yuan. One transforms into three, and the three unite into one, proving the principle that the Dao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things.

At this moment, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth frantically converged into the Minghe's body, and his magical power gradually transformed into Hunyuan Magical Power.

The Mosquito Daoist's original power was continuously refined, transforming into pure Hunyuan Magical Power.

"Combine!"

Minghe let out a soft cry, his mouth containing the mandate of heaven. As his voice fell, the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown, the Five Qi Returning to the Origin converged, Auspicious Cloud manifested, descending in boundless auspicious clouds. A Purple Qi Comes from the East from the east and was born within the Auspicious Cloud.

Its body emanates a mysterious light, which is the Great Dao, the Heavenly Dao, the Chaos, the Primordial Chaos, within which the ultimate principles of heaven and earth are nurtured, mysterious beyond description.

The Minghe's divine body began to slowly rise, Twelve Grades Karma Red Lotus appeared behind it, radiating the light of karmic fire, mixed with the red light of slaughter, illuminating the Primordial Wilderness heavens and all realms.

The whole world seemed to be bathed in red, appearing both sacred and majestic!

"Boom!"

A resounding melody echoed as Minghe broke through the Quasi-Saint realm and successfully reached the Quasi-Saint Realm.

But that's where it ends!

Because he had used up all his resources, he had no strength left to break through to a higher realm, and he had not even broken through the River of Destiny.

Donghua exclaimed softly, "Do not slacken your efforts, establish the Asura Path!"

As soon as the words fell, the Minghe instantly released the Reincarnation Great Dao.

Since the last Blood Sea Battle, Minghe has perfected his Reincarnation Great Dao, but he has reached a point where he can make no further progress.

Because Houtu stands before him!

He wanted to use the Reincarnation Great Dao to prove his Dao, but that was simply not feasible in the Primordial Wilderness.

But if it's just for supplementary purposes, it's still acceptable.

To put it simply, it's about using the Reincarnation Great Dao to establish the Asura Path, then exchanging it for Mysterious Yellow Merit from the Heavenly Dao, breaking the River of Destiny, and Attain Hunyuan Dao.

The Minghe lifted up the true form of the Mosquito Daoist, and the power of reincarnation pierced through the Blood Sea and the Netherworld.

Where the Netherworld and the Blood Sea merged, a world gradually formed, and the Five Paths of Reincarnation appeared before everyone. These Five Paths of Houtu belonged only to Houtu.

Just as the Five Paths of Reincarnation appeared, the Innate Supreme Treasure Reincarnation Seal in Houtu's hand trembled incessantly, as if someone was snatching food from her.

Donghua glanced at Houtu, saying nothing, yet he said everything.

Houtu rolled her eyes at Donghua, raised her hand to suppress the vibration of the Reincarnation Seal. She knew very well what Donghua was thinking, but she still granted his request without question.

If Houtu were to disregard everything and sever the connection between the Five Paths of Reincarnation and the Blood Sea Minghe, then the opening of the Asura Path by the Minghe would become a joke.

Donghua turned to Taishang and said softly, "Senior Brother Taishang, it's time to fulfill your promise."

Taishang said nothing, but simply activated the Taiji Diagram, then pointed out with a finger, relinquishing one-tenth of the cycle of fortune and bestowing it all upon Minghe.

Donghua gave the Three Pure Ones 20% of their reincarnation fortune, and now only 10% remains.

After thinking for a moment, Donghua also shared a portion of his own reincarnation fortune with Minghe.

Houtu, seeing this, also set aside a portion.

Nuwa was the same.

Donghua and they were allies, and now their three-person alliance is about to become a four-person alliance.

Giving up a portion of one's reincarnation fortune at this point is tantamount to acknowledging the Minghe as an ally.

The Taishang possesses one-tenth of the Qi, and the three of them combined, including Donghua, also possess approximately one-tenth.

Instantly, 20% of the reincarnation energy was transported into the Minghe's body.

Minghe accepted everything without hesitation. Now was not the time for politeness. If he were to express gratitude, it would be after he attained enlightenment. However, he would owe Styx a great debt of gratitude.

Once again, the power of reincarnation was activated, and a powerful force flowed between the two realms. Finally, after reaching its peak, the Abi Yuantu Sword appeared.

"Cut!"

Two sword beams shot into the sky, directly opening a path at the intersection of reincarnation.

The newly opened cycle of reincarnation is very unstable, as if it will close at any moment.

Minghe quickly merged the true form of Mosquito Daoist into it and once again activated the power of reincarnation.

Using the true form of the Mosquito Daoist as a guide, the power of the Blood Sea surged into the Netherworld Realm, causing the two to completely merge and exchange everything.

At this moment, the true form of the Mosquito Daoist also transformed into nourishment and merged into the Cycle of Reincarnation.

"Heavenly Dao above, today I, the Minghe, establish a new path based on the five paths of reincarnation, called the Asura Path. From this day forward, the cycle of reincarnation in this realm will be divided into Six Paths of Reincarnation. May Heavenly Dao bear witness!"

As soon as the words fell, the Heavenly Dao Power permeated the nine heavens, converging to form the Heavenly Dao Eye, and then a beam of light shone into the Asura Realm.

"Boom!"

The investigation of the Heavenly Dao continues, based on the situation of the Heaven, Earth, and Human Daos in the Primordial Wilderness world, to determine whether the Asura path is necessary to exist.

Time passed slowly, and as the light faded, the Heavenly Dao's examination came to an end.

This also means that the Heavenly Dao agrees to the emergence of the Asura realm.

Time passed slowly, Asura Path finally solidified, while the Mosquito Daoist's true form had completely transformed into the Dao, becoming a part of the Asura Path.

With the completion of the Asura Path, the entire Primordial World trembled. Above the nine heavens, the Mysterious Yellow Merit began to condense, and the vast Merit Clouds made the entire Primordial Wilderness appear golden.

Between heaven and earth, celestial flowers and golden lotuses continuously appeared, formed by the condensation of the Great Dao Power and innate energy, which could be directly absorbed.

Within the Minghe, the Slaughter Great Dao, the Great Reincarnation Great Dao, and the four primordial Hun Yuan were unified and eventually merged to form the power of the Great Dao Rules, which is also where the Hun Yuan powerful.

What are rules?

My word is everything!

My words are law, the way, and the truth!

"Boom!"

The merit of opening a cycle of reincarnation in the Minghe descended from the sky and eventually merged into his body, causing his stagnant cultivation to begin to advance by leaps and bounds.

A river appears.

As soon as the River of Time appeared, Minghe wielded the Abi Yuantu Sword and the Great Dao Light pierced through the river, instantly shattering everything, merging the past, present, and future into one.

With a single strike, the shackles of the River of Time were annihilated!

Then Minghe stepped into the River of Destiny, and the surging River of Destiny did not stir up a single ripple beneath his feet, as if it were an ordinary river.

Step by step, the Minghe arrives at the other side of the River of Destiny, where an invisible chasm exists. Only by crossing it can one achieve true transcendence.

Standing atop the River of Destiny, the Minghe begins to slowly gather its power before that insurmountable chasm of fate.

"Shura!"

The twin swords of the Minghe were swung out, their blades landing on the other side.

The immense Great Dao Power clashed violently with the River of Destiny, and the power of Destiny continuously impacted the Asura Path established by the Minghe.

It's like the world has been restarted!

"Bump!"

A crisp sound rang out in the River of Destiny, as if something had shattered.

Then the Minghe Styx surged into the sky, and he instantly crossed the chasm on the other side.

"Buzz!"

Great sound!

The Minghe successfully transcended the River of Destiny, reaching a realm of infinity, Wuji, and immeasurable power.

Heaven and earth may perish, but I will not!

Heaven and earth may perish, but I will not!

This is transcendence, this is Hun Yuan!

As the Minghe stood atop the long river, the power of time and space and the power of destiny merged into the Great Dao and the Hunyuan Magical Power.

At a certain moment, Minghe opened its eyes, and an aura of astonishment soared into the sky.

It is indescribable, like the arrival of the Dao, like a descent from the heavens; its aura permeates the past, present, and future, illuminating the boundless heavens.

Past, present, and future united!

All paths converge into one, transforming into the Slaughter Great Dao!

At this moment, the Minghe Attain Hunyuan Dao!

Just then, several booming sounds rang out from the heavens, followed by strange phenomena and a rosy glow covering half the sky.

Sweet dew fell from the sky, golden flowers bloomed in abundance, Golden Lotuses Springing from the Earth, and countless spiritual energies surged forth, benefiting countless living beings, some gaining sentience, others taking human form.

An immense pressure spread from the Blood Sea to the Primordial Wilderness, and all living beings bowed down before the Minghe's aura.

Wherever his imposing presence went, people would submit to him for life.

In the Sky Vault, the Merit Power flowed continuously into the body of the Minghe, and the fortune of the entire Netherworld, Reincarnation, and the Three Mountains and Five Peaks also gathered there.

The first level of the Heavenly Realm: early stage, middle stage, late stage, and peak!

Early stage of the Second Heaven, Middle stage of the Second Heaven!

At this point, Minghe's cultivation stopped, and he had used up all his merits. His cultivation ultimately remained at the Hunyuan Double Heaven Primordial Chaos Realm.

He became the weakest Hunyuan Saint in the Primordial World.

However, unlike the Three Pure Ones and others, Minghe was only a Daoist Saint and did not possess the Primordial Violet Qi.

This means that his authority in the Primordial Wilderness was not as great as that of the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and others.

Especially in mobilizing the Heavenly Dao Power, they are far inferior.

But what is lost on one front is gained on another.

Houtu and the Minghe are far superior to the Three Pure Ones and others in terms of authority over the underground passages.

If we're talking about which has a brighter future, we should look at how the Heaven, Earth, and Human Daos develop.

"We pay our respects to Saint of the Minghe and offer Minghe congratulations!"

"We pay our respects to Saint of the Minghe and offer Minghe congratulations!"

"..."

When Minghe attained Attain Sainthood, all living beings in the Primordial Wilderness paid homage. Even Donghua and the Three Pure Ones bowed slightly to express their congratulations.

How can we not celebrate the attainment of enlightenment!

Minghe descended from the sky, stepping on a red lotus.

"This humble Daoist, Minghe, bows in gratitude to the Great Heavenly Venerate Venerable for granting me enlightenment, and expresses my deepest thanks to fellow Daoists Houtu Fellow Daoist Nuwa for their assistance. I am moved to tears!"

Donghua waved his hand dismissively and said, "It's alright, it's alright. The prehistoric world is also going through a turbulent Primordial Wilderness. The war against the Western God Realm is imminent. Fellow Daoist, even after you attain Dao, do not slacken your efforts."

"I will heed the Great Heavenly Venerate's teachings!"

Minghe's attitude was more humble than before, which was the result Donghua wanted to see. Perhaps from this moment on, Minghe's sense of awe was even stronger.

Because he had not reached the Hun Yuan, he had no idea how strong Donghua was now. When he was Quasi-Saint, looking at Donghua was like looking at the sky from the bottom of a well.

I only know that Donghua is very strong, but I don't have a clear concept of it.

Now that he Attain Hunyuan Dao, he can discern its three essences.

After thanking Donghua and the others, Minghe came before Yuanshi, bowed respectfully, and said softly:

"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. Although we have not formed an alliance, I will always remember your kindness."

Yuanshi sighed. In truth, he was not familiar with the Minghe and had never looked down on Minghe, just like when he came to the Blood Sea to beat up the Minghe.

But it was from that time onward that he gained a new understanding of the Minghe and thought it was quite good.

Later, during their travels through the Primordial Wilderness, they made contact, culminating in this brief alliance to help Minghe attain enlightenment.

Although they ultimately failed, they bought the Minghe the most crucial amount of time.

Donghua glanced at Fuxi and said softly, "Fellow Daoist Fuxi, you must also work hard; your time is running out."

"Yes!" Fuxi seemed to have gained a lot of motivation. He had thought he would be the first person to attain enlightenment after Houtu.

Unexpectedly, they were outmaneuvered by the Minghe and ended up behind.

In fact, Fuxi has accumulated enough merit to break through to the Quasi-Saint realm, but his merit is insufficient, and his luck is barely enough.

However, he has great ambitions!

It's bigger than the Minghe!

Minghe glanced at Fuxi and slowly said, "I have already sent a telepathic message to Brahma and the others, instructing them to withdraw their troops from Buxian Mountain and for the Asura Race to withdraw from the struggle for humanity."
