Investiture Calamity Cycle-Late Stage!
Shouyang Mountain.
Laozi, inside the Eight Views Palace, looked solemnly at the Calamity Fiend Aura rising in the Primordial Cosmos.
He stroked his beard and said:
"Good fortune and misfortune are intertwined."
"Great prosperity and great calamity arise together; this world is ultimately no longer at peace!"
Fortunately--
Laozi's only Daoism disciple was Xuandu, who, like Xuandu himself, had no interest in the so-called Star Deity Position.
As for the other disciples and nominal disciples, that depends on their own wishes and abilities.
The present moment--
Under the Daoism tradition, there are indeed some Primordial Unity Golden Immortal and Golden Immortal, who have already obtained the Lower Star Deity Office.
As for the Middle Star Deity Office, there is no one there yet.
The higher-level Upper Star Deity Position are even more so.
Fortunately.
Laozi didn't care about this.
He merely contributed to the gradual evolution of this great Calamity Cycle; as for the rest, he had no intention of competing for them!
Kunlun Mountain.
Yuanshi, inside the Jade Clarity Hall, let out a long breath.
He said in a deep voice:
"The real conflict has begun!"
The previous struggle over the Middle Star Deity Office was nothing more than child's play.
At the moment.
After the Calamity Cycle begins, a host of powerful figures Beyond Great Luo will inevitably enter the arena to compete fiercely.
At that time--
The turmoil in the Primordial Cosmos will only become more terrifying!
Yuanshi began to worry.
Beside.
Golden light shone in Tongtian's eyes within the Highest Clarity Hall, and a slight smile appeared on his lips:
"Good timing!"
Tongtian showed no fear whatsoever when it came to the Investiture Calamity Cycle.
Even--
Among his countless disciples under the Interception Sect lineage, more than twenty Middle Star Deity have already been born.
Next.
What Tongtian wanted to do was--
To find a Heavenly Circumference Star Aura of the Upper Star Deity Position among some disciples of the Interception Sect who have stepped above the Beyond Great Luo!
Only...
Among the Sage Traditions, there are actually very few disciples who have truly reached the realm Beyond Great Luo!
Think about it--
Those who can cultivate to the Beyond Great Luo are all exceptional individuals!
Such a capable person, even if he does not follow the Sage Traditions.
By sitting and looking at the Sun Star every day and contemplating its light, one can receive the complete inheritance passed down through Sun Star by the great master Dan Jing.
At that time--
It is still possible to attain the position of Great Luo and ascend to a realm Beyond Great Luo.
What kind of people truly follow the Sage Traditions?
It's not particularly outstanding, but it's just average.
It's average, but not bad either.
For someone who is neither here nor there, even if they were to join the Sage Traditions, it would be quite difficult to achieve a realm Beyond Great Luo.
Fortunately, under the Tongtian Interception Sect lineage, the number of disciples is arguably the largest among Mystic Gate lineages.
There are still some disciples who have graduated from the Beyond Great Luo.
Tongtian began to plot.
The west.
On Mount Sumeru--
Jieyin and Zhunti looked at the already initiated Investiture Calamity Cycle, and calculated the number of Middle Star Deity Office and Lower Star Deity Office that their Western Sect had obtained. They both nodded in satisfaction.
Zhunti smiled and said:
"Senior brother, Upper Star Deity Position, we'll just let things take their course!"
"But how about we, as fellow disciples, try a little harder to achieve the positions of Middle Star Deity and Lower Star Deity?"
Upon hearing this...
The Jieyin also wore a smile:
"Good!"
Although Lord Dan Jing granted the title of Upper Star Deity to Sages, disciples who could cultivate to the Beyond Great Luo were absolute treasures to the Western Sect.
Naturally, they were unwilling to let them become high and mighty star gods, detached from the affairs of the Great Teachings of the Saints.
The Upper Star Deity Position is not to be taken.
The goal of Jieyin and Zhunti naturally became the Middle Star Deity and Lower Star Deity Office.
Throughout this period of time--
The number of disciples from the Western Sect who attained the Middle Star Deity Office and Lower Star Deity Office ranks of the Star God positions was even greater than that of the Interception Sect!
Heavenly Court.
Nuwa watched the rising aura of Calamity Cycle, her expression unchanged.
She wasn't worried that this round of Calamity Cycle would trap her.
They simply issued two more imperial edicts casually.
One decree was sent to Fengqi Mountain and handed over to Fuxi, the current vice leader of the Monster Religion; the other decree was sent to White Marsh, who served as a celestial official in the Heavenly Court and also had full authority over all matters concerning the Demon Race.
There was no further explanation.
There was only one instruction--
Disciples of the Monster Religion and members of the Demon Race compete only for the Middle Star Deity and Lower Star Deity Office!
That Upper Star Deity Position...
Let all the Primordial Divine Being and gods of heaven and earth fight over it!
The Netherworld.
Calamity Cycle's energy erupted, the decrees of Zhen Yuanzi and the eleven Ancestral Witch, including Di Jiang, fell from top to bottom into the Witch Race and the Human Religion.
Similarly.
Zhen Yuanzi and the eleven other Ancestral Witch, including Di Jiang, shared the same simple idea—
The disciples of the Human Religion and the members of the Witch Race only compete for the positions of Middle Star Deity and Lower Star Deity!
The Upper Star Deity are determined by fate.
It's not that we lack the strength to compete, but rather that there's no need to fight to the death!
Rather than having disciples Beyond Great Luo fight desperately against Grand Witch of similar strength for the uncertain Upper Star Deity Position, it would be better to preserve them as part of one's own foundation.
The competition for Upper Star Deity Position is too risky.
However, the risks of competition between Middle Star Deity and Lower Star Deity are something that the powerful Human Religion and the Witch Race can withstand.
So.
Just compete for the positions of the Middle Star Deity and Lower Star Deity!
In the blink of an eye.
Another ten cycles of time have passed.
The Calamity Cycle has begun.
A host of powerful figures Beyond Great Luo descended upon the stage, and one after another, the spots for the Upper Star Deity Position on the Investiture of the Gods of the Gods were filled.
Only--
Among those who hold Upper Star Deity Position and whose names are inscribed on the Investiture of the Gods, very few are from the Witch and Demon Tribes or the Sage Traditions!
They were mostly ancestors of Innate Great Clans, as well as innate Primordial Divine Being and gods who originally roamed freely between heaven and earth.
Each time Upper Star Deity Position, it is often accompanied by the fall and Reincarnation of many powerful beings Beyond Great Luo, or the decline or even extinction of a great Innate Great Clans.
Certainly.
The birth of each Upper Star Deity also signifies the flourishing of the lineage left by a Primordial Divine Being, or the increasing power of an Innate Great Clans!
A rise and a fall, a birth and a death, it is all in balance!
Time flies, and years pass by.
Another twenty-odd years have passed --
It was during the evolution of the Investiture Calamity Cycle, amidst the chaotic struggle between numerous Primordial Divine Being and great gods, a host of Great Luo, countless Primordial Unity Golden Immortal cultivators, and Golden Immortal rogue cultivators, that the time passed unnoticed.
At the same time.
The vast majority of the Heavenly Circumference Star Aura scattered throughout the Primordial Cosmos and All Heavens and Myriad Realms has been discovered.
The Lower Star Deity are as brilliant as a constellation of stars.
All 10,800 Middle Star Deity Office have been claimed.
Among the Upper Star Deity--
Only a dozen or so vacant positions remain for the Sun Star Lord, the Lunar Star Lord, the Purple Forbidden Star Deity, the Great White Star Deity, and so on!
The Investiture Endeavor.
And this Investiture Calamity Cycle of the Investiture Endeavor—
The most intense stage of competition has begun!
