Bi Lan Temporarily Acts as Sun God, Governing the Great Sun
Inside the Qiankun Cauldron, true fire roared.
Four Heavenly Pillars gradually took shape, each Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, its entire surface adorned with ancient and simple patterns.
Because it is a treasure that supports the heavens, the Shangqing Saint incorporated some of the power of the Heavenly Dao into its creation, making its power far surpass that of ordinary Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Once the Heavenly Pillars was successfully forged, the Saint Nuwa began to smelt the Five-Colored Stone, using the Qiankun Cauldron to refine them into the Firmament Origin.
Zhu Yin remained silent throughout, quietly observing the two sages, Shangqing and Nuwa. Every move of the sages embodied the Great Dao, and observing them attentively would also benefit him.
Once everything was ready, the Taiqing Saint moved the Taiji Diagram away, Nuwa used her magic to merge the Firmament Origin into the Nine Heavens, thus repairing the flaws in the firmament.
At the same time, the Shangqing Saint placed the Heavenly Pillars in the four cardinal directions of heaven and earth, standing tall and upright.
Once this matter was settled, the waters of the Heavenly River ceased to overflow, the heavens and earth ceased to merge, and everything became stable. Suddenly, four beast roars resounded from all four directions, spreading far and wide under the blessing of the great power of the Heavenly Dao.
"I am the Azure Dragon Patriarch of the Eastern Sea, one of the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth. From this day forward, I will forever guard the Eastern Heavenly Pillars and protect the peace of the Primordial Wilderness."
"I am the Vermilion Bird Divine Lord of the Southern Heaven, one of the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth. In the future, I will forever guard the Nanji Heavenly Pillars and bring blessings to all living beings in Heaven and Earth."
"I am the White Tiger Patriarch of the Western Lands, one of the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth. From now on, I will forever guard the Western Heavenly Pillars, Blessed Fortune all living beings."
"I am the Northern Lands Black Tortoise Patriarch, one of the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth. From now on, I will forever guard the North Pole Heavenly Pillars, bringing blessings to all living beings in the world."
These are the Four Extremity Divine Beasts chosen by Heavenly Dao. As they swore their oaths, the heavens and earth trembled and roared incessantly, bestowing upon them immense Merit.
The Four Extremity Divine Lords, having received the Merit, manifested their true forms, which were 60,000 feet tall.
The Azure Dragon's scales are emerald green like jade, while the White Tiger's fur is as white as snow.
The Black Tortoise armor is as thick and heavy as a mountain, while the Zhuque feathers are as brilliant as fire.
Dragon roars and tiger howls, tortoise bellows and phoenix sings.
With the Merit, the Four Extremity Divine Lords' aura rose steadily, and their cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds. They quickly increased from the peak of the mid-stage of the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal to the late-stage of the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal, and their true bodies grew from 60,000 zhang to 90,000 zhang.
In the end, it was Alternative Dao-Proving, transforming into one of the Four Extremity Divine Beasts, with a trace of saintly aura around it. From then on, it possessed the status of heaven and earth, and as long as the Heavenly Pillars was destroyed, the sacred beast would not perish.
The Four Extremity Divine Beasts returned to their rightful places, and the world was stabilized once more.
Only then did the Six Heavenly Dao Sages have time to deal with the remaining Witch and Demon Clans.
Seeing that the Demon Clan had recovered from the Calamity Qi, the Taiqing Saint felt something and suddenly pointed at the Slate-Horn Azure Ox Clan, saying calmly.
"This ox is destined to be mine."
"May it be my mount!"
Upon hearing this, all the saints also sensed this from the Heavenly Dao and praised it. The Slate-Horn Azure Ox was overjoyed and instantly emerged from the grief of the heavy loss of its race, transforming into a Azure Ox and walking to the side of the Taiqing Saint.
The Yuqing Saint also felt this and chose a Sibuxiang to serve as a mount; the Shangqing Saint chose a Kui Ox.
Nuwa rode Jin Feng, while the Two Sages of the West were accustomed to sitting cross-legged on lotus thrones.
Regarding the affiliation of the Witch and Demon Clans, the Saint Nuwa spoke first, settling the Demon Clan.
"Dijun has lost his virtue, Demon Clan has lost its position. They shall no longer reside in the Nine Heavens. From now on, the Demon Clan shall live and multiply in the northern part of the Primordial Wilderness, and must not cause any more trouble."
The Demon Clan understood that this was the best arrangement for them.
Even if one has opinions in one's heart, one can only suppress them in front of a sage.
Led by Bai Ze, the Demon Clan soldiers bowed to the Six Heavenly Dao Sages, and then left with these remnants of the Demon Clan.
The other sages had no objection to this.
Nuwa was once the Empress Wa of the Demon Clan and also held the Demon-Gathering Banner, so she was indeed more suitable than them to decide the fate of the Demon Clan.
After settling the Demon Clan, only the Witch Clan remained.
Finally, the Taiqing Saint spoke, ordering the Witch Clan to guard Buzhou Mountain and repair the ancient Heavenly Pillars, forbidding them from leaving the mountain easily, or they would surely suffer a calamity.
Buzhou Mountain was the location of the Pangu Hall, and the Witch Clan had no objection to this. They immediately prepared to lead the remaining Witch Clan toward Buzhou Mountain.
Just before leaving, Zhu Yin suddenly spoke.
"Wait!"
He bowed respectfully to the Six Heavenly Dao Sages and explained.
"I once received a small favor from the Ancestral Witch Roushou. From now on, those Witch Clan who wish to protect the Witch Clan and settle down in the Western Lands Ancestral Witch Hall may stay temporarily and leave with me when the time comes."
Upon hearing this, Xingtian fell silent.
How to choose is the freedom of the other beings in the Witch Clan.
He will not interfere; whatever the outcome, Xingtian will accept it.
After a moment's consideration, tens of thousands of the Witch Clan beings agreed to reside permanently in the Western Lands, most of whom were descendants of the Golden Ancestral Witch, and a small number were beings of other attributes within the Witch Clan.
Witch and Demon Clans have found their allegiance, and this great calamity has ended.
The Calamity Qi dissipated from the world, and all living beings felt refreshed, as if the gloom in their hearts had been washed away, and the sky and earth were at peace.
Boom!
Heavenly Dao began to reward merit and bestow vast amounts of Merit.
The Six Heavenly Dao Sages took the lion's share, receiving 60%, while the remaining 40% was distributed among the great powers of Heaven and Earth.
Ancestor Pan Wang received some Merit. Although he did not break the shackles, he had accumulated Merit over many years as a foundation. He only needed an opportunity to break free from the cage and advance to the late stage of Primordial Origin Golden Immortal.
The White Tiger Patriarch also received some Merit, and his cultivation level rose again, surpassing that of the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
Although the Burning Lamp Daoist did not gain Merit, he repaid the karmic debt owed to the Eastern Lands and from then on felt completely comfortable and relaxed.
Zhu Yin gained the most from the great powers of heaven and earth, possessing a whole Merit, which he also kept to prepare for his future breakthrough to the Late-Stage Quasi-Sage.
Knowing that the Six Heavenly Dao Sages would next vie for the Eastern Sovereign Bell, Zhu Yin dared not linger and quickly departed with tens of thousands of the Witch Clan members.
"Ruined Nine Heavens," the Taiqing Saint said, first sheathing the greatly weakened Witch-Slaying Sword.
"There is only one supreme treasure, and we can fight for it based on our own abilities. However, the world has just suffered a severe blow, so we must exercise restraint when we act, lest we cause further damage to the world in our struggle for the treasure."
All Five Saints praised it as good.
The Shangqing Saint was most eager to wait.
The Qingping Sword in his hand emitted a dazzling, clear light, enveloping the Chaos Bell, which had returned to its original state.
Among the four major schools of the Profound Sect, he was the only one without a supreme treasure skilled in suppressing destiny.
The Seven Treasures Wondrous Tree swept in, blocking the Qingping Sword.
Jieyin the Taiqing Saint, Nuwa stopped Yuqing.
Finally, the Chaos Bell, affected by the residual force of the battle between the six sages, vanished into the void.
The Innate Supreme Treasure is comparable to that of a sage.
Even they couldn't figure out where the Chaos Bell had gone.
At the same time, the voice of Dao Ancestor Hongjun rang out.
"Come to the Purple Cloud Palace immediately to see me!"
The Six Heavenly Dao Sages could only temporarily quell their fighting spirit and headed to the outer Chaos.
In the Western Lands, Zhu Yin left tens of thousands of the Witch Clan beings in the Ancestral Witch Hall, selected a Divine Shaman to manage them, and then turned and left.
Mount Fangcun, Crescent Moon Three Stars Cave.
He benefited greatly from this trip.
However, Zhu Yin did not immediately go into seclusion, but first made arrangements for various matters.
For example, before the Heavenly Emperor returns to his position, let Bi Lan take advantage of this gap to control the Sun Star for a period of time.
The Demon Clan has withdrawn from the starry sky. Bi Lan temporarily acting as the Sun God and can rule half of the starry sky. He can take this opportunity to comprehend the Star Dao and collect Heaven and Earth Treasures from the stars.
