National Destiny: Day Three, Taoist Tongtian Enters the Battle!

Di Jun knelt in the void of the sword formation and bowed down in front of him.

"Disciple Di Jun has come here with the utmost sincerity to invite Master to the Demon Court to become the Demon Master of our Demon Tribe."

"Perhaps Disciple become accustomed to being the master of the Demon Court, and my words have been inappropriate, causing Master to misunderstand!"

"We beg you, Master, to spare our lives for now, considering our past relationship as master and disciples."

"Upon my return, I will personally prepare a generous gift to express my gratitude to my teacher for sparing my life!"

Di Jun's change of attitude was remarkably swift; he changed his address for Li Yi from "Daoist" to "Teacher."

They even brought up the previously extremely distant master-disciple relationship as an excuse.

Having decided to beg for mercy, Di Jun disregarded his pride and even deliberately used his Magic Power to spread the word.

Even those outside the Formation could clearly hear these words.

Upon hearing Di Jun's words, the expressions of those watching from the sidelines ranged from mockery to shock.

"Di Jun beg for mercy?"

"Tsk tsk, they're even bringing up their old master-disciple relationship?"

"Hey, what a shameless Demon Court Emperor! Why didn't you call Heaven-Earth Dao Ancestor' before? Now that you've been beaten into submission, you're even bringing up the title of 'Master'!"

"The Heaven-Earth Dao Ancestor is truly terrifying. He single-handedly overwhelmed Twelve Quasi-Saints of the Demon Tribe! Even the Yao Lord Di Jun was forced to beg for mercy!"

"Previously, in the Primordial World, some people were arguing that the Demon Tribe Taiyi might have surpassed the two Dao Ancestor. Now it seems that the Heaven-Earth Dao Ancestor could subdue him with a single hand."

"From this day forward, even those Quasi-Saint will not dare to bother this Heaven-Earth Dao Ancestor again..."

Within the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation.

Li Yi floated in the sky, calmly looking down at the crowd kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Not only did Di Jun kneel down and kowtow, but the nine surviving Demon Sage also knelt down and kowtowed. Taiyi, who was quite unwilling, was also pulled down to kneel down by Bai Ze and the others.

Looking down at the crowd, Li Yi remained silent for a moment before finally shaking his head.

These people are indeed difficult to kill!

With his current strength, killing these people would be easy.

But what happens after you kill them?

Without a leader, the Demon Tribe race will be slaughtered by the Witch Tribe in an instant.

At that time, the Witch Tribe will be all-powerful, and the original Lich Calamity and Demon will have no one left to face it!

Even disregarding the future dominance of the Witch Tribe, the current Heavenly Dao Will would not allow him to kill these people!

If he truly kills everyone, the Heavenly Dao Will might completely side with Hongjun, helping Hongjun to Three Corpses Unity and become Sage!

At that time, he really shot himself in the foot.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Li Yi made his decision.

These people must be spared for future calamities; they must not be killed!

Of course, there are also advantages to not killing these people. The "money to buy their lives" mentioned by Di Jun is only one aspect. More importantly, Di Jun, Taiyi, and others will also owe him a great Karma because of this incident.

When the calamity comes, he will take back all the Karma from the two of them, with interest.

Having made up his mind, Li Yi no longer hesitated.

"You should leave behind five Supreme-grade Innate Spirit Treasure as a way to save your lives!"

People can leave, but the money stays! If it weren't for the fact that the Chaos Bell is currently involved in the karmic Karma of future Calamity Cycle, he would have even tried to seize the Chaos Bell itself!

As for why it's not one piece per person...

Supreme-grade Innate Spirit Treasure are extremely rare. Even the Three Pure Ones, who bear the Karma of creation, don't possess many. Five of them represent all the Supreme-grade Innate Spirit Treasure these twelve people have.

Upon hearing Li Yi's words, Di Jun's face turned somewhat pale.

However, after gritting his teeth, Di Jun decisively summoned the two Supreme-grade Innate Spirit Treasure he had contracted Sun-Moon Wheels, and proactively erased the divine consciousness imprints on the two Spirit Treasure.

Taiyi, standing beside him, hesitated for Taiyi. Seeing his elder brother's resolute attitude, he simply summoned another Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure of the Divine Furnace type.

Behind the two, Bai Ze and Shangyang each summoned a top-grade Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure, a mirror, and a scissors, respectively.

Li Yi used his Magic Power to take away the five Spirit Treasure treasures whose divine imprints had been erased, and then dispelled the formation.

"Get out!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Yi had already vanished from his spot and returned to the Island.

Di Jun, Taiyi, and the others breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the Formation being dispelled, but recalling what had just happened, they still looked quite aggrieved.

Those Daluo Golden Immortal and Quasi-Saint secretly watching the battle from the sidelines exchanged whispers. Although the others couldn't hear what they were talking about, they could guess what they were discussing.

They dared not utter any more harsh words, and each activated their Spirit Treasure, leaving the place.

Watching the departing figures of the Demon Tribe saints, the people here also dispersed.

Soon, the events of this place spread throughout the entire Primordial World through the mouths of these people.

Nuwa had just emerged from her seclusion at Phoenix Perch Mountain when she received this message.

Upon learning of what Di Jun and the others had done, a cold glint flashed in her phoenix eyes.

"Pass on my word, and Demon Tribe of the Phoenix Perch Lineage will break away from the Demon Court."

"Those who wish to remain in the Demon Court need not return!"

She usually focused on cultivating the Dao and only occasionally preached, but because of her strength and the legends of Sage Position circulating in the Primordial World, many Demon Tribe took the initiative to attach themselves to her.

She herself did not join the Demon Court, but those people still joined the Demon Tribe in the name of her Dependent Tribe, a matter she had never interfered with before.

However, since Di Jun and his people have done this, she naturally has to sever all ties with the Demon Court!

As soon as Nuwa's command was issued, about one-tenth of the people in the Demon Court left.

There are more than ten 'Demon God' at the Great Firmament realm among them!

Meanwhile, Tongtian had already paid homage to Penglai Immortal Island.

Looking at the corpse of Jiuying, Jiuying the Ten Demon Sages, contained in a treasure box, Li Yi's expression was somewhat helpless.

"Since I said I would let them go that day, I truly meant it..."

Tongtian lowered his head slightly.

"Disciple also learned of your words from elsewhere!"

"If it were someone else, Disciple would naturally follow your instructions and not pursue the matter further."

"But this person dared to spout nonsense in the Demon Court, showing disrespect to his Master!"

"Disciple may not concern myself with others, but I must take this matter seriously."

Li Yi didn't pursue the matter further. Killing someone was fine; as long as the power disparity between the Wu and Yao Tribes wasn't too great...

Li Yi casually put the treasure box away and then brought up another matter.

"By the way, in a few days, I have something I need you to do!"

The matter Li Yi spoke of was the third day of the nation's destiny, which was about to arrive.

In fact, the Karma between him and Blue Star has been settled. The reason for sending people there now is more to explore the National Destiny Game behind it.

Who exactly is the source of this so-called National Destiny Battlefield?

If possible, he would like to forcibly go to Blue Star to explore, but doing something that violates the rules of the National Destiny Game would easily alert the mastermind behind the scenes.

So they simply sent Tongtian to participate in the national destiny, and with Tongtian's strength, he should be able to see some clues.

When Tongtian heard that Li Yi had something for him to do, he agreed without hesitation.

"Teacher, please just let me know if you need anything."
