Intercepting Heaven and Taking the Way, Tongtian Establishes a Sect, Gains Jie Sect's Fortune

Bo Huang received the technique passed down by Tongtian and began to comprehend it. Slowly, a hazy glow of Shangqing immortal light flickered over his body.

Before long, Bo Huang muttered, "The sword moves like a dragon, all laws turn to void. With the sword in hand, seize a thread of life for all beings—is this the Way of Shangqing?"

Tongtian heard Bo Huang's muttering and laughed heartily, saying, "My path is complete."

In Shangqing Palace, Tongtian laughed loudly, then suddenly stood up and declared, "The Heavenly Dao above bears witness. I, Shangqing Tongtian, am moved today. I establish a sect called Jie, with the doctrine of seizing a thread of life between heaven and earth. The Four Swords of Zhu Xian suppress our fortune. The Jie Sect is established."

Boom. The Heavenly Dao responded. Violet qi surged from the east for thirty thousand miles, descending vast merit for establishing the sect, which drew in the merit of creation and the Primordial Violet Qi. A pressure of might rose from Tongtian, and all beings in the Primordial Wilderness felt the Saintly Might, bowing involuntarily.

Inside Zixiao Palace, Hong Jun was startled, covering his mouth and muttering, "Nuwa hasn't even created humans yet. How did Tongtian already establish a sect?" To clarify, Hong Jun was so shocked by Tongtian's sudden sainthood that he yanked out a handful of his own beard, hence covering his mouth.

Meanwhile, in Jade Purity Palace, Yuanshi stroked his beard and muttered, "Well, this time I've been surpassed by the third brother... But wait, it seems Bo Huang entered Shangqing Palace, and not long after, the third brother became a saint. Could that kid have the ability to guide someone to sainthood?"

In Taiqing Palace, Lao Zi deduced the matter and thought to himself, "A pity. This old man's opportunity for sainthood hasn't arrived yet. No rush, no rush."

After a long time, Tongtian finished digesting the insights from his sainthood. He looked at Bo Huang with a complex expression and said, "I wish to appoint you as the Deputy Sect Leader of the Jie Sect. What do you think?"

Bo Huang shook his head and said, "Things are fine as they are now. The position of Deputy Sect Leader doesn't suit me. If I became the Deputy Sect Leader of the Jie Sect, what would happen when the war between Wu and Yao breaks out? Whether you help me or not, it would be trouble."

At these words, Tongtian's face flushed red, and he said, "This Seat has already become a saint. Could I still fail to protect you? Hmph."

Bo Huang pondered for a moment and said, "Let me return to the Heavenly Court to visit my parents. The Outer Sect of our Jie Sect is still a bit weak. Although the disciples are diverse in origin, most have mediocre backgrounds, and there's some disorder. I'll go back and bring a few brothers to help me manage the Outer Sect."

Tongtian nodded and said, "Fine, go ahead. I'll keep the position of Deputy Sect Leader for you. We'll talk when you've earned the respect of all Jie Sect disciples." Bo Huang bowed respectfully, then transformed into a rainbow light and shot straight toward the Heavenly Court.

This scene happened to be seen by Duobao. Now, Duobao cultivated the path of Ego Supreme. Ever since Bo Huang arrived at Shangqing Palace, he had been troubled, always feeling that this kid had come to seize power.

At present, the Outer Sect disciples of the Jie Sect were already numerous and had split into two factions. One faction was led by Duobao, including Chang Er Ding Guang Xian, a Golden Immortal who had attained the Dao as a long-eared rabbit of the Primordial Wilderness; Jin Mao Hou, with top-tier zombie bloodline, a Golden Immortal; Ling Ya Xian, a Golden Immortal who had attained the Dao as a six-tusked white elephant...

The other faction centered on Bo Huang, the Outer Sect Senior Disciple, with key figures including Kong Xuan, Jin Peng, Yun Xiao, Zhao Gongming... Although the Jie Sect was united externally, internally it was divided into two factions.

This time, Bo Huang returned to the Heavenly Court mainly to do two things. First, find an opportunity to persuade Nuwa to create humans. Second, bring a strategist to the Jie Sect. This Duobao, a proper Senior Personal Disciple, still wanted to play palace intrigue with me? Not to mention anything else, at least with my background from a past life in business and this life as royalty of the Demon Race, could I possibly be worse than a Rogue Cultivator like him?

Before long, Bo Huang arrived at the Heavenly Court, inside Lingxiao Hall. Looking at Di Jun on the throne, he said, "Father, I've returned."

Before Di Jun could speak, Nuwa spoke first, "Bo Huang, come here. Let your aunt see. You haven't suffered since joining Shangqing Palace, have you?"

Bo Huang laughed heartily and said, "Haha, Empress Wa, you jest. How could I suffer? I'm now the Outer Sect Senior Disciple of the Jie Sect, in charge of leading the Outer Sect. Oh, and I was the one who reminded my master to establish the Jie Sect."

Nuwa's eyes lit up at this, and she thought to herself, "So it was you who guided Tongtian to the method of sainthood. It seems this kid really has something interesting about him." With that thought, Nuwa said, "Then tell your aunt, Bo Huang, where does my path to sainthood lie?"

Bo Huang frowned and communicated with the system in his mind, "If I directly guide Nuwa to sainthood now, will Hong Jun come looking for trouble with me?"
