Gazing at the inscriptions on the Nüwa Palace.

Nüwa's expression remained calm, revealing neither joy nor anger.

As Sage, she possessed a very high level of State of Mind, and these trivial matters were not enough to anger her.

Only...

Nüwa recalled what her brother Fuxi had told her not long ago about the change of dynasties...

"Cheng Tang overthrew Jie and became king of the world, enjoying a reign of over six hundred years. His Karmic Luck was nearing its end, and the Yin Shang was about to collapse..."

Perhaps...

Nüwa paused for a moment, then continued casually, "Let them perish in this generation!"

When Sage speaks, his words become law.

In addition, Lady Nüwa was originally the Holy Mother of the Human Race. Although she never interfered in the affairs of the Human Race, she always had this right.

Um!

She did it for her brother, not out of spite.

Nüwa finished speaking.

In the Unseen, the Xuan Dark Bird, a totem formed from the Human Path Karmic Luck of the Yin Shang dynasty, suddenly let out a mournful cry.

But after letting out a mournful cry, the Karmic Luck Dark Bird showed no other unusual behavior. In fact, if someone skilled in the Karmic Luck were to come and observe the Karmic Luck of the Yin Shang Dynasty at this moment...

They would all find that the Karmic Luck of the Yin Shang dynasty had not changed in the slightest compared to before.

But in reality...

The Karmic Luck Dark Bird was already severely injured, but it was not the Karmic Luck Dark Bird itself that was severely injured.

Instead...

This is the legacy of the Karmic Luck Dark Bird Fortune.

From this moment on, the Karmic Luck Dark Bird Fortune will lose its ability to pass on its legacy, Di Xin... will be destined to become the last human king of the Yin Shang Dynasty.

After that, Nüwa's figure disappeared from the Nüwa Palace, which she rarely entered even once in billions of years.

It was as if they had come here only to witness this scene and to punish Di Xin.

Only...

The Lady Nüwa departed, but... her Lady Nüwa, Caiyun Tongzi, did not leave.

In the Nüwa Palace, the Caiyun Tongzi summoned a golden gourd with a flick of his hand.

He lifted the gourd lid, pointed with his hand, and a beam of white light shot out from the gourd, as large as a rafter and over four or five zhang tall.

The white light faded, revealing a banner with five colors and thousands of auspicious reflections, upon which were two Innate divine patterns.

"Summoning demons."

The Demon-Summoning Banner fluttered in the wind, and soon, a demonic wind howled, a gloomy fog rolled in, dark clouds gathered, and several gusts of wind swept by.

Nüwa Palace, everyone knelt below the hall, none daring to utter the slightest sound.

The Caiyun Tongzi gazed at the group of demons, his eyes sweeping across them before finally settling on three female demons.

Then, the Demon-Summoning Banner fluttered again, and the demons below disappeared, leaving only the three female demons.

As expected.

These three female demons were none other than a Nine-Tailed Fox, a nine-headed pheasant spirit, and the last one was a jade pipa spirit.

Among them, the nine-headed pheasant spirit and the jade pipa spirit were not famous, but the Nine-Tailed Fox was very well-known.

The name Daji is almost universally known.

The three demons resided in Xuanyuan Tomb, not far from Chaoge.

Good...

These three demons were rare alien races living within the Nine Provinces Barrier the Human Race.

Although it was extremely uncomfortable being suppressed by the Nine Provinces Barrier and the Human Race's Karmic Luck within the Nine Provinces.

But...

It's safe!

Even within this Nine Provinces Barrier, where one's strength is suppressed and imprisoned, limiting one's ability to exert even a fraction of its power, it is still comparable to the Primordial World.

It couldn't be safer.

Surviving in the Primordial World is no easy task.

Those powerful clans, or those with powerful immortal cultivators in charge, are better off. Although there is competition, they are mostly peaceful.

However, for some weak cultivators, or some weak races, surviving in the Primordial World...

That truly meant living a precarious existence.

Perhaps one second they were cultivating in their own cave abode or clan, and the next moment they were caught in the aftershocks of the battle between powerful beings and turned to ashes.

Of course, although the impact was widespread among powerful beings, the primordial Primordial World was so vast and boundless that only a small portion of those who perished in the aftershocks were affected.

More often, however, they perished in the struggles between different ethnic groups.

Although cultivation resources are abundant in the Primordial World, the competition for them is equally fierce, and it's not something you can simply choose not to compete for.

If you don't fight for resources, other groups will seize them and grow stronger. Those powerful enemies will then bully and humiliate you, and may even wipe out your race.

Therefore, we must seize and take.

Either I'll steal you this year, or you'll steal me next year.

There are also those who are oppressed by powerful clans, vented their anger on passing, disgruntled cultivators, and encounter murderous Devil Beasts...

In conclusion

The pressure to survive in the Primordial World was truly terrifying.

In contrast, living in the Nine Provinces Human Race, although one may be suppressed by the Nine Provinces Barrier and the Human Race's Karmic Luck.

Furthermore, they are occasionally hunted by malicious individuals among the Human Race, but this is a far cry from their life in the Primordial World.

It couldn't be more wonderful.

Moreover, due to the suppression of the Nine Provinces Barrier, truly powerful beings rarely stay in the Nine Provinces, while these weak Primordial World races are far more vulnerable.

At this time, the incredibly powerful Human Race didn't care at all, and even supported it.

After all, wouldn't such a vast Nine Provinces Barrier be monotonous if it only contained Human Race?

This has resulted in the existence of hundreds of thousands, millions, or even more Primordial World and weak races from the primordial era within the vast Nine Provinces Barrier the Human Race's nine provinces.

And naturally, this also includes a large number of weak monster races.

As a former high-ranking member of the Demon Race, Caiyun Tongzi naturally possessed many methods for summoning and controlling demons.

As for the principle behind this method...

Naturally, these races, known as demons, were simply imprinted with the concept of the entire race through methods used to join the Demon Race.

Among the Demon Race, they are not a loving family.

Certainly...

The Demon Race is not too harsh; such methods can be eliminated automatically once one's cultivation reaches a certain level.

However, it is extremely useful against weak monsters.

For example...

The three demons kneeling before the Caiyun Tongzi were the same.

"Three demons, heed this secret decree! The Cheng Tang 'Karmic Luck are waning; it is destined to lose the empire. The phoenix Mount Qi; Saint Lord has been born in the Western Zhou."

"The will of Heaven is set, and destiny is inevitable. You three demons may conceal your demonic forms, infiltrate the palace, and bewitch the emperor's heart, but you must not harm the living beings."

"After this is accomplished, you too will attain enlightenment."

With a serious expression, Caiyun Tongzi looked at the three demons kneeling below and said in a deep voice.

"This humble demon obeys the decree!"

Although the three female demons were extremely shocked, they dared not hesitate in the slightest and immediately bowed in gratitude.

At that moment, a white light shone from the Demon-Summoning Banner in the hands of the Caiyun Tongzi, and the Yao Qi on the three demons vanished instantly.

They transformed into three alluring women.

At this moment, even a Great Daluo Golden Immortal would probably not recognize that these three women were actually three demons.

The three demons naturally sensed the changes within themselves, but they dared not utter a sound.

Instead, he remained kneeling respectfully in place for a long time, and only after that, when there was no movement, did he dare to slightly raise his head.

The Caiyun Tongzi had vanished without a trace.

Looking at the empty Nüwa Palace, the three demons finally breathed a sigh of relief, slumped to the ground, and looked at each other.

Although the three are all demons from Xuanyuan Tomb and don't have much contact with each other on a daily basis, they all know about each other.

"Gentlemen, from today onwards, we are on the same side. How about we address each other as sisters from now on?"

At this time, she did not yet possess the name Daji; she was merely a bewitching woman transformed from Nine-Tailed Fox, speaking softly.

However, it's unclear whether this is due to the Fox Clan's innate talent or Daji's special talent.

Every move Daji made, every smile, carried an unseen allure.

Even the nine-headed pheasant spirit and the jade pipa spirit standing to the side were stunned for a moment before they came to their senses.

This is such an incredible thing.

Although it was only a brief moment of stunned silence, that single instant was enough for Daji, whose cultivation level was nearly equal to theirs, to kill them several times over.

"Sister, you're so beautiful!" The jade pipa spirit beside her exclaimed directly.

Although the three of them were nearly identical in figure and appearance at this moment, it was this aura, this alluring charm, that made them stand out.

The Jade Pipa Spirit and the Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit beside her were both ashamed of their inferiority.

"Yes! Sister is so beautiful!" The nine-headed pheasant spirit chimed in.

Although their cultivation is not strong, it is precisely because of this that these weak Demon Race are more adept at intelligence, or rather, at cleverness.

Naturally, he instantly grasped the situation and recognized the key point of this mission: it would most likely fall on this Nine-Tailed Fox.

Despite this, neither the nine-headed pheasant spirit nor the jade pipa spirit expressed any dissatisfaction.

On the contrary, they are very happy now.

After all, what's all this talk about seducing the emperor in the palace, bewitching his heart, and the impending doom of the Yin Shang dynasty and the rise of the Western Zhou...?

Is this a sign that Human Race is about to change dynasties?

Although they were just minor demons and lacked the sensitivity to such matters, they could sense that this was definitely an extremely dangerous situation.

They would naturally be more than happy to have the main force of such matters handed over to others.

However...

At this moment, Daji was overjoyed.

Compared to the other two demons, Daji's temperament, wisdom, or rather... ambition were clearly far superior.

She seduced the emperor, bewitched him, and brought about a change of dynasty.

The Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit and the Jade Pipa Spirit saw this as a huge crisis, but Daji saw it as an immense fortuitous opportunity.

Yes.

The Enchantress King is dangerous.

In a sense, they still don't know who commanded them to seduce the King.

But...

Where are they now?

It's the Nüwa Palace!

It is the temple of Nüwa, the Holy Mother of Human Race!

In a place like this, who else could possibly be willing to send them to seduce the King of Men?

Although it cannot be said explicitly.

In a sense, they were also acting under orders, and as long as they kept things within reasonable limits, they didn't need to worry about the benefits after the mission was accomplished.

Just during this process...

She bewitched a human king, though it cannot be said that she gained control of the Human Race.

But at some point, those rare and precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures and magical scriptures that she never dared to dream of were practically within her grasp.

Such fortuitous opportunity was not one that Daji would easily let slip by!

At this moment, deep within Daji's eyes lay a seemingly endless ambition.

She dared not even dream of becoming a god or a saint, but...

With the support of Human Race resources, it wouldn't be unreasonable for her to become a Golden Immortal, or even Taiyi Golden Immortal!

Although... she was just a minor Heavenly Immortal demon at this time, even with such a great fortuitous opportunity, she ultimately couldn't even achieve the status of Golden Immortal.

She might as well just smash her head against the pillar.

Meanwhile...

Fire Cloud Cave, the sacred site of the Human Race!

The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors gathered together, gazing at the image reflected in the central Round Light Mirror.

The image playing in the video was none other than the footage from the Nüwa Palace.

Everything that King Di Xin of the Yin Shang Dynasty did in the Nüwa Palace.

Every single one of them had an extremely ashen face, especially...

"A disgrace, a true disgrace!" Dayu's face was gloomy and extremely ugly.

That's right.

Although the faces of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were not good at this time, the one who looked the worst was Yu the Dayu.

Although the Xia Dynasty, founded by Dayu, was destroyed by Shang Tang, in a sense, Shang Tang's ancestor shared the same blood as him.

Of course, the other Human Emperor also looked extremely grim.

After all, Di Xin was, after all, a human king, the ruler of their Human Race.

"Such a king... is a disgrace. This kind of hereditary dynasty... should perhaps not exist at all."

Shaohao snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.

Faced with Shaohao's cold words, none of the other Human Emperor responded, not even Dayu, who had single-handedly created the hereditary dynasty.

There was no rebuttal.

Deep down, he didn't actually agree with this system either, but... the current Human Race needed this system.

Human Race's next plans also need to proceed in this manner.

"Alright, don't blame the little guy too much; after all, there was a reason for it..."

At this moment, it was the Saint Emperor Fuxi who spoke softly to offer advice. Although his expression was not very pleasant, it was not exactly unpleasant either.

And then Fuxi spoke.

In the Round Light Mirror before the Human Emperor, the image froze for a moment, then began to rewind.

It wasn't until the strange wind that had blown into the Nüwa Palace stopped that it stopped, and then... a different scene unfolded.

The source of that strange wind has appeared.

That was a figure... familiar to all of them.

It's him!?

"It's this person?"

The Human Emperor frowned as they looked at the figure in the image, feeling both surprised and unsurprised.

One of the two sages of the West, the Daoist Zhunti!

Many Human Emperor were both surprised and unsurprised that this event was Zhunti by Zhunti.

This is something that the renowned Daoist Zhunti could do in the Primordial World.

Moreover... who else but Sage could possibly be able to ambush and bewitch the Human King, who is protected by the Karmic Luck of Human Race, within the Nine Provinces Barrier?

Among all the saints.

Only Zhunti of doing something like this!

"Sage made a sneak attack... In that case, it's understandable that Di Xin was misled," Zhuanxu said with a light laugh.

However...

Zhuanxu referred to himself as Di Xin, not as the contemporary human king. From this, we can see what this Human Emperor Zhuanxu was really thinking.

While the other Human Emperor did not refute Zhuanxu, their expressions undoubtedly conveyed the same thoughts as Zhuanxu.

That's right, this is Sage making a move.

However... in order not to leave any trace, Zhunti dared not go all out to confuse Di Xin, lest he be captured by Nüwa or the Human Race and become the one to make the move.

As for why this mirror image was discovered by Fuxi...

It's not because Fuxi's Great Dao of the Eight Trigrams made such great progress that he was able to capture the Sage's whereabouts and see Sage every move in the past.

Rather, it was because this video was specially left for him by his master, who had seen the live version.

The other Human Emperor were aware of this, which is why they did not doubt why Fuxi could find the image containing the Sage's image.

Let's return to the topic.

Therefore... although the strange wind that bewildered Di Xin was Technique Method used by the Daoist Zhunti, but...

As long as one possesses the will of Quasi-Sage.

Then one can detect that something is wrong, or even resist this deceptive Technique Method.

Although Di Xin was not Quasi-Sage, as the human king, he was blessed by the Nine Provinces Barrier and protected by the Karmic Luck of Human Path.

Leaving aside the watershed of Primordial World powerhouses like the Daluo Golden Immortal, as long as Di Xin's Dao heart is firm, relying on Di Xin's current cultivation level as the Taiyi Golden Immortal,

While it's not possible to completely block it, it's still possible to detect when something is wrong.

Upon discovering something amiss, the power of the Nine Provinces Barrier can be activated by the authority of the Human King to resist the Technique Method.

And Zhunti obviously could not openly continue to forcibly deceive Di Xin.

But obviously...

Judging from the fact that Di Xin was completely unable to resist and was easily deceived.

Di Xin's Dao heart could hardly be considered firm.

And this...

This is also why the current human emperors do not truly acknowledge Emperor Xin in their hearts.

At this moment, Fuxi was quietly watching Daoist Zhunti in the telescope, his eyes slightly narrowed, seemingly lost in thought.
