Mid Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal!

Having said that, Dijun unfurled himself and departed.

After Dijun had invited Nuwa and Fuxi to join the Demon Race Heavenly Court, he had conferred upon them the titles of Wa Huang and Xi Huang.

Nuwa's sacred ground was located beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, in Grand Simplicity Heaven's Chestnut Vast Wilds—the Wa Huang Palace.

Before long, Dijun arrived at the Wa Huang Palace.

The entire Wa Huang Palace had been built against a cliff.

With towering cliff faces as its foundation and a vast sea of clouds as its curtains.

Five-colored radiance shone brilliantly, while auspicious mist drifted in waves.

Dijun descended from the clouds and arrived outside the Wa Huang Palace.

Just then, a delicate, jade-like child emerged from the palace.

The child was named Lingzhu Zi.

His true form was an Innate Spiritual Stone. When Nuwa encountered him, she gathered the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth and received the essence of the sun and moon, awakening him into form and accepting him as her direct disciple.

Though the little fellow was dressed as a Dao attendant, spiritual light circulated around him, and his Dao Resonance was extraordinary. Clearly, his cultivation was not weak.

Seeing Dijun arrive in person, Lingzhu Zi bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Demon Emperor!"

Dijun gave a slight nod and asked, "Is Wa Huang present?"

Lingzhu Zi blinked and answered in a crisp voice, "Demon Emperor, you have come at an unfortunate time. Master left her sacred ground yesterday, saying she intended to travel the Primordial Land in search of an opportunity to Attain Sainthood."

"Hmm?"

Hearing Lingzhu Zi's reply, Dijun frowned slightly and sighed inwardly. Wa Huang is actually not at her sacred ground. What poor timing.

He had originally come to discuss certain matters with Nuwa.

Now, the situation in the Primordial Land was growing increasingly unstable.

Especially the Immortal Court of Zifu Prefecture controlled by East King Duke, which was pressing the Demon Race at every turn.

"Whew..."

After pondering for a moment, Dijun drew a deep breath and turned his gaze to Lingzhu Zi. "In that case, when Wa Huang returns, please inform her that I came to pay a visit."

Lingzhu Zi smiled faintly and cupped his hands toward Dijun. "Rest assured, Demon Emperor. Lingzhu Zi will remember!"

Dijun did not linger any longer and turned to leave.

After departing the Wa Huang Palace, Dijun was about to return to the Demon Court when a clear voice called out and stopped him midway.

"Demon Emperor, please wait!"

Dijun was startled and turned around.

A refined-looking man in a green robe came striding over the clouds. It was none other than Nuwa's elder brother, Fuxi!

"Fuxi, my friend?"

Dijun was somewhat surprised.

Before long, Fuxi landed before Dijun.

"What brings the Demon Emperor to the Wa Huang Palace today?"

Fuxi asked.

Dijun did not conceal anything and replied, "I came today intending to discuss certain important matters with Wa Huang."

"Unfortunately, Wa Huang has gone to the Primordial Land in search of an opportunity to Attain Sainthood."

Fuxi smiled slightly. Naturally, he knew that Nuwa had gone traveling through the Primordial Land.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Dijun rose to leave, only for Fuxi to call out to him again. "Demon Emperor!"

"Hmm?"

Dijun halted and looked back at Fuxi, his face filled with confusion. "What else is it, Xi Huang?"

Fuxi pursed his lips, seeming to have something difficult to say.

Seeing Fuxi's expression, Dijun said, "Fuxi, my friend, speak freely."

"We are both members of the Demon Court. There is no need for formality between us."

At that, Fuxi let out a long breath before finally speaking. "Demon Emperor, I wish to borrow your River Diagram and Luo Shu."

At Fuxi's words, a flicker of surprise flashed through Dijun's eyes.

The River Diagram and Luo Shu were Dijun's Companion Supreme Treasures, both Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

They could be used to deduce the secrets of the Heavenly Dao, observe the stars, and divine fortune.

The River Diagram contained the celestial phenomena and the numerical principles of Heaven and Earth's creation, while the Luo Shu specialized in defense.

What slightly surprised Dijun was this.

Fuxi actually wanted to borrow his Companion Supreme Treasures!

After pausing briefly, Dijun narrowed his eyes and asked, "What does Fuxi, my friend, intend to deduce?"

Fuxi did not hide it and answered directly, "A few days ago, while observing the movements of the Celestial Stars, I comprehended a Formation Prototype."

"But it has always remained one thread short of perfection."

"I have heard that the Demon Emperor's River Diagram and Luo Shu encompass all things, so I wish to borrow them for study."

Hearing Fuxi's explanation, Dijun's thoughts raced.

No matter what, Fuxi was the Xi Huang of the Demon Race.

Now that he had comprehended the prototype of a formation—

If he lent the River Diagram and Luo Shu to him, perhaps it would complete Fuxi's opportunity and help bring his formation to fruition.

Perhaps the formation Fuxi created would prove greatly useful in the future.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Dijun nodded lightly. With a wave of his hand, a scroll sparkling with starlight and a mysterious jade tablet appeared.

They were precisely his Companion Supreme Treasures, the River Diagram and Luo Shu!

"Since Fuxi, my friend, has asked, I shall naturally oblige."

Seeing Dijun agree, Fuxi was overjoyed.

He had worried that Dijun would refuse. After all, these were two Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures—and Dijun's Companion Supreme Treasures at that.

No one would lightly lend them out.

Amid his delight, Fuxi solemnly accepted the River Diagram and Luo Shu, his face full of gratitude. "Many thanks, Demon Emperor! Fuxi will remember this kindness!"

Dijun smiled faintly and waved a hand, signaling that Fuxi need not take it to heart.

"It is nothing. You and I are both of the Demon Race; we ought to help one another."

Though he said so aloud, Dijun had other thoughts in mind.

Fuxi was already proficient in deduction. If he could use this chance to win him over, it would be of great benefit to the Demon Race's future!

Afterward, Dijun did not stay and took his leave.

Meanwhile, at Qin Mu's place of seclusion.

After leaving Kunlun Mountain, he had originally planned to head straight for Golden Ao Island in the East Sea.

Yet on the way, he set up a formation and opened a Great Red Packet.

Who would have thought that opening the packet would reward him with the Great Self-Transformation Technique?

Since he happened to possess a drop of Xing Tian's essence blood as well as the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir given by Laozi, Qin Mu simply began cultivating in seclusion within the formation.

"Boom!"

A vast aura suddenly surged into the sky, instantly blasting apart the clouds for ten thousand li around!

Yet it quickly withdrew, becoming impossible to detect in the slightest.

Inside the formation, Qin Mu slowly opened his eyes. They were like suns and moons, unfathomably deep.

"I've reached the Mid Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal stage!"

Qin Mu said excitedly.

After consuming Laozi's Nine-Turn Golden Elixir and using Xing Tian's drop of essence blood to develop the Great Self-Transformation Technique, his cultivation had soared by leaps and bounds.

He had directly broken through from the early Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal stage to the Mid Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal stage.

Beyond the rise in his cultivation, what delighted Qin Mu even more was this.

While using Xing Tian's essence blood to develop the Great Self-Transformation Technique, he had successfully condensed Xing Tian's Self-Transformation Body.

With a thought from Qin Mu, he activated the Great Self-Transformation Technique.

The next moment, a towering, muscular giant several zhang tall appeared beside him.

It was the "Self-Transformation Body" condensed from Xing Tian's essence blood.

This was no ordinary Dharma body or Avatar. The figure he had condensed was scarcely any different from Xing Tian's true body.

Besides condensing Xing Tian's Self-Transformation Body, Qin Mu had gained something even greater.

His Exclusive Great Dao Level Technique had advanced another step, solidifying the second Innate Azure Lotus Sword Leaf within his body!

And with the solidification of the second sword leaf, Qin Mu obtained a secret technique.

That was, he could condense three Dao Bodies: the Past Body, Future Body, and Present Body.

These three bodies could exist independently or merge together. Each could cultivate on its own and feed their gains back to the original body.

They were unlike the Avatars created through Severing Three Corpses, which could not further increase their cultivation.

Instead, their cultivation could rise without limit.

Moreover, should the original body perish, he could be resurrected through the three great Avatars!
