Chapter 107 Establishing the Heavenly Court (2)
"In that case, then you two fellow Daoists shall come with me to the Thirty-Third Heaven. Fellow Daoists, you must be getting impatient." Having received the images transmitted back by the Blood God Child, and knowing full well that the Three Pure Ones and the powerful demons were already prepared, Styx looked at Zhunti and Jieyin before him and said with a smile.
He had given the Three Pure Ones enough opportunities and also given Di Jun time to "backstab" him. If that was the case, he had given up on the idea of letting the Witch Clan join the Heavenly Court. In any case, the main goal was to drag the Three Pure Ones down with him, and the rest was not important.
"Of course, of course!" Seeing this, Zhunti and Jieyin disregarded the matter of disciples and nodded in agreement.
The three of them rode on clouds, not in a hurry, and headed towards the thirty-third heaven of Buzhou Mountain.
During the journey, Zhunti and Jieyin could not contain their excitement. They made some calculations, figuring out the possibility of establishing the Heavenly Court and how much they could benefit from it. They had no problem with either of these calculations.
After all, the Three Pure Ones used three innate treasures, or treasures of the level of innate treasures, such as the Chaos Bell, the Taiji Diagram, and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, to conceal the secrets of heaven. This formation was prepared to shield the Styx River from its calculations, so how could Zhunti and Jieyin possibly have deduced any problems?
Just as Zhunti, Jieyin, and Styx arrived at the Buzhou Mountain area, suddenly, a sound of the Heavenly Dao resounded throughout the primordial world, startling Zhunti, who was looking around at the Wu tribe.
The thought of becoming the Heavenly Emperor, and that both the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan would join the Heavenly Court, meant that they could also borrow the power of the Witch Clan in the future, filled Zhunti with joy, and even the hearts of the Witch Clan members seemed to be filled with happiness.
Unlike other primordial beings, he would not reject the Wu Clan. On the contrary, he would vigorously bestow titles upon the Wu Clan. The mountains in the east have the Wu Clan as the mountain spirits and veins, and the west should be the same.
But at this moment, for some reason, this sound of the Heavenly Dao made Zhunti feel that something big was about to happen.
In the Thirty-Third Heaven, a momentous event occurred. With the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, Zhunti immediately thought of establishing a Heavenly Court. After all, there was nothing else worthy of the Heavenly Dao's blessing, allowing the actions of the person to resound throughout the primordial world so that all living beings could hear them.
However, as for establishing a heavenly court...
Zhunti glanced at the Styx River. Wasn't he the initiator?
Weren't they, the Western interpretationists, important participants?
How come they've started before they've even joined?
As Jieyin looked up at the Thirty-Three Heavens, he felt a vague sense of unease for some reason.
"Heaven's Way is above, and the Dao Ancestor bears witness!"
In this primordial world, amidst the chaos of war, in order to quell the calamity, protect all living beings, and revitalize the fortunes of the Xuanmen (mysterious sect), Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian, Dijun, Nuwa, and Taiyi have established the Heavenly Court here.
I, the Primordial One, am the Heavenly Emperor.
My father is the Great Emperor of Qinghua in the Eastern Pole.
I, Emperor Jun, am the Great Emperor of the North Pole of the Central Heaven, Ziwei.
I am all-powerful, and I am the Great Emperor of Longevity in the South Pole.
I am Taiyi, the Great Emperor of Gouchen Shanggong!
I am Nuwa, the Great Emperor of Xuanhuang.
Heavenly Court, stand!
The voice of Heaven resounded throughout the primordial world, proclaiming to all living beings. Countless demons and creatures were moved and prostrated themselves on the ground, whether they were in the Thirty-Three Heavens or on the primordial land.
"The Xuanhuang Emperor?" Styx frowned, but quickly remembered the original name of this Heavenly Emperor's position, "Chengtian Xiaofa Houtu Huangdiqi". Nuwa wanted to fulfill the duties of Heaven and Earth as the Heavenly Emperor and rule over the primordial land. She couldn't possibly offend Houtu's name.
However, at this point, the goal has been achieved.
With the establishment of the Heavenly Court, immeasurable merits fell from the sky and landed on the six Heavenly Emperors of the first Heavenly Court. Under the blessing of this merit and fortune, the cultivation of Di Jun, Nuwa, and Taiyi all increased dramatically. However, in the process of severing the last corpse, Di Jun and Nuwa's cultivation reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint of the Second Corpse.
The Daoist principles contained within the innate, indestructible spiritual light, which had been difficult to comprehend for countless years, were now readily understood.
However, neither of them managed to sever the last corpse and achieve the realm of a Quasi-Saint with three corpses, as severing the last corpse is extremely difficult.
The three Pure Ones then naturally severed one of their corpses again. However, among the three, Laozi's aura was the strongest, followed by Tongtian, but the two were roughly equal. Yuanshi's aura, on the other hand, was much weaker than the other two.
The reason is simple: Yuanshi failed to use the innate treasure Pangu Banner when he severed his corpse this time. Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, Hongjun will not bestow this innate treasure again until Yuanshi establishes his sect and becomes a saint in the future, so that it can be used to suppress the fortune of the Chan Sect.
However, this gap can never be bridged, and not only can it not be bridged, it will also greatly affect the path to sainthood of the Primordial Beginning.
After all, the essence of establishing a religion and becoming a saint is still becoming a saint through merit. It is nothing more than becoming a saint by using the merit of establishing a religion to guide the merit of creating heaven, or becoming a saint by using the merit of creating humans. If neither of these is possible, then one makes a grand vow to become a saint through a loan.
Ultimately, it all comes down to achieving sainthood through merit.
Such saints are very similar to quasi-saints. Quasi-saints possess the power of a Primordial Golden Immortal, which gives them unparalleled suppressive power over cultivators at or below the Great Luo Golden Immortal level. However, when faced with a true quasi-saint, they are helpless.
Quasi-Saints attained sainthood through this method, gaining power at the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal. However, when faced with a true Primordial Golden Immortal who had also attained sainthood, they were utterly powerless to resist.
How far they have progressed in the path of severing the three corpses has a significant, even decisive, impact on their cultivation level after they achieve sainthood through merit.
At this moment, within the Thirty-Three Heavens, feeling his aura was weaker than that of his eldest and third brothers, Yuanshi hated the Styx even more.
He held the position of Heavenly Emperor and received more merit than Laozi and Tongtian, but he still couldn't compare to his elder brother and younger brother. This shows how much damage the Styx's previous schemes had caused him.
At the same time, Yuan Shi was also filled with a sense of joy.
Styx is the person he hates the most right now, without exception. Taking away Styx's opportunity to attain enlightenment is, in Yuanshi's heart, the ultimate revenge against Styx. Only such revenge can slightly soothe Yuanshi's wounded heart.
Yuanshi even believed that the Styx's endless schemes over countless years were all for the sake of the Heavenly Court, and that he, at the most crucial moment, stopped it all and saved the prehistoric world!
You must know that what Styx wants is the throne of the Great Emperor Gouchen. We don't know how he will start a bloodbath and destroy all living beings in the primordial world once he actually sits on this throne!
Immersed in the thrill of revenge and the achievement of saving all living beings in the primordial world, Yuanshi failed to notice that the calamity energy between heaven and earth had suddenly increased with the establishment of the Heavenly Court, and that strands of cause and effect were also entangled around him.
Looking at the magnificent scene before him, Fuxi felt no jealousy, only joy and happiness for his fellow Daoists and his sister's growth.
Indeed, in the end, Fuxi chose to give up his four progenitors of the demon race in order to help Dijun and Taiyi achieve their goals.
