Chapter 156 The Death of the First Emperor
A new work by Wei Fu is here, updated first across the entire network!
During the Dragon Clan's Great Calamity
Dragons were hunted everywhere in the primordial world, but the dragon race was not wiped out; they simply hid in rivers, lakes, and seas.
The Kunpeng lives in seclusion in the North Sea, watching the true dragon flee for its life. It hides in the clouds and mist, seeking refuge in a small space, yet it is everywhere, able to appear and disappear at will.
As long as the Heavenly Dao True Saint Ancestral Dragon exists, the Dragon Clan will never perish. However, this True Saint has encountered a major problem, and the erosion of the Heavenly Dao is unavoidable.
The higher one climbs, the colder it gets; the aura of the Ancestral Dragon continued to weaken, as if it had aged.
The Qilin ceased fighting, the Phoenix stopped fighting, and the White Tiger Ancestor, the Candlelight Ancestor, and the Netherfire Ancestor all stopped fighting.
"The First Emperor is going to die"
"Before this old dragon falls, it will surely try its best to take away several powerful enemies!"
"The great war between the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans will eventually come to an end."
Rumors
Rumors spread
All the Primordial Quasi-Saints went into hiding, a storm was brewing, and the primordial world fell into an eerie calm.
The Primordial Phoenix, the First Qilin, Hongjun, Rahu, and others have all disappeared without a trace.
Rahu, Zhuzhao, the White Tiger Ancestor, Xuanhuang, Youying, and others also went into hiding.
The ancestors of creation, heaven and earth, wind and thunder, yin and yang, five elements, and stars have also disappeared without a trace.
One time
The primordial world was in an era without saints.
Quasi-saints, near-saints, and true saints do not reveal themselves in the world.
The Three Pure Ones' clones came to visit the Demon Master to discuss how to break through the Great Luo limit and become a Hunyuan Quasi-Saint, since they were already at the peak of the Great Luo.
"The Great Luo cultivator has broken through to the Primordial Chaos realm. Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, what are your thoughts?"
Kunpeng said in a low voice, "Sever the Three Corpses."
Morality remained silent, Yuanshi hesitated to speak, and Lingbao frowned, saying, "Severing the Three Corpses is the ultimate technique of Master Hongjun, but his method of severing the corpses is different from what he taught; it requires the use of external objects to entrust the Three Corpses..."
[Slaying the Three Corpses]
Hongjun's unique skill can sever the good and evil in the hearts of living beings, ultimately eliminating their obsessions.
He severed one corpse, then two, then three, and the three corpses merged into one, becoming a Primordial Sub-Saint.
This is a clear path, but it is difficult to begin because it requires the innate spiritual treasure to be entrusted to the Three Corpses.
Entrusting oneself to a good corpse, entrusting oneself to a bad corpse, entrusting oneself to one's own corpse.
It requires aligning with one's inherent good and evil nature, and even achieving the unity of the three corpses (body, mind, and spirit), and even shortcuts are unlikely to succeed.
Kunpeng calmly said, "Those who learn from me will live, those who imitate me will die."
Morality remained silent, and Lingbao hesitated, as if he wanted to speak. Yuanshi said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, my two brothers and I wish to subdue Kunlun Mountain. Would you be willing to lend us troops?"
Kunpeng said solemnly, "The demon army and the elite of the immortal path are at your disposal, fellow Daoists."
then
The Three Pure Ones led away 100,000 demon soldiers and generals, along with the ten disciples of the Demon Master and powerful figures such as the Phoenix of Yinglong Mountain.
Bai Ze, Gui Che, Wu Zhi Qi, and others also participated.
Disciples from the three sects of Renjiao, Chanjiao, and Jiejiao attacked Kunlun Mountain.
The sacred beast Azure Dragon sighed, and a gigantic Azure Dragon stretched across the Eastern Wilderness, while the golden bodies of the Three Pure Ones stood majestically like the Kunlun Mountains.
Kunpeng silently watched the battle. The Three Pure Ones were not afraid of being killed by the True Saint, because each of them possessed immense fortune.
The Great Toon Tree hesitated, saying, "The Three Pure Ones have terrifying potential. If we were to reclaim Kunlun, it would be like a dragon entering the sea; they would be very difficult to deal with in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Kunpeng retorted, "Sigh, Da Chun, don't ever oppose the Three Pure Ones. You're no match for them. Do you really think they've come here to discuss the Dao or borrow troops?"
"Otherwise what?"
"The Three Pure Ones are Hongjun's vanguard. They are using their fortune and merit to test the situation of the First Emperor. Asking me to borrow troops is just to drag me into this mess."
"Then why did you go into the water?"
"Nonsense! The Dragon Ancestor wiped us out, so naturally we can't be on good terms with the Dragon Clan!"
Ten thousand years later
Kunlun Mountain was recaptured, and the Three Pure Ones returned to their sacred grounds in high spirits, joining forces to defeat the sacred beast Azure Dragon.
The Renjiao, Chanjiao, and Jiejiao sects widely accepted disciples.
The Celestial Venerable of Morality preached the Dao, but he did not accept personal disciples; instead, he imparted true skills. In particular, he was completely impartial in the art of alchemy, stating that anyone with nine orifices could become an immortal, and that all living beings could cultivate themselves.
When Yuanshi Tianzun spread the Dao, he valued one's background, good fortune, and comprehension. Those who could not become Taiyi Golden Immortals could not truly enter his school and become his personal disciples.
Lingbao Tianzun was broad-minded and taught without discrimination, accepting disciples regardless of their fortune, aptitude, or enlightenment.
Many of the 100,000 demon soldiers and fairies became disciples of Lingbao Tianzun, their fates changing drastically, and the three religions began to rise in the Eastern Wilderness.
Upon returning from attaining the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, Bai Ze personally visited the Demon Master and said, "I will not hold back the true teachings and secret techniques of the Three Pure Ones, including alchemy, talisman making, and formations."
"Gods, mythical beasts, and demons can all become disciples of the Three Pure Ones."
"Senior Demon Master, don't you feel threatened?"
The ghost carriage approached, its nine faces constantly changing, and it finally attained the status of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
The same was true for Wuzhiqi, Qingniu, and others; the dragon clan's weakened fortune was taken over by a group of living beings.
Yinglong, the mountain phoenix, and a group of demon kings also exuded the aura of the Great Luo.
The physical body has stepped into the Great Luo realm, the primordial spirit has stepped into the Great Luo realm, and the Great Luo Golden Immortal is only half a step away.
Kunpeng's gaze swept over the group of demons, and Bai Ze broke out in a cold sweat.
"Bai Ze, please continue."
Bai Ze said in a deep voice, "The divine beasts are bound to be defeated. The future is destined to belong to the immortals, and our demon race will be the protagonist. Why don't demon masters take advantage of this opportunity to rise up and establish themselves as quasi-saints with the fortune and destiny of the demon race?"
"If the demons are willing to serve the Demon Master as their master, the demon race can also establish a Heavenly Court and usher in a new era!"
The demons urged him to advance
The ten disciples of the Demon Master Palace were also excited.
Even the great ailanthus tree thought it should be so.
Heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, endless resources—all belong to the Heavenly Court of the Demon Race.
Kunpeng sneered, "Your suggestion is good, but it's not the right time yet. Let's wait a bit longer."
"We should try this kind of thing more often. You should go and persuade Di Jun, Tai Yi, Nuwa, Fuxi, Zhen Yuanzi, Styx, and others to join us."
"In an era of great contention, heroes should rise up and emperors should vie for supremacy!"
Shortly after
The primordial starry sky was dim, and the dormant Di Jun and Tai Yi looked in shock at Bai Ze and the other demon kings who were urging them to advance.
They established the Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan, ushering in a new era and creating a new age.
The idea of a demon race ruling the primordial world, gathering the creations of heaven and earth to ascend to the Primordial Chaos Realm, is very appealing and an irresistible temptation.
Di Jun's expression was complicated, and Tai Yi immediately shook his head.
Xihe cut to the chase, asking, "In terms of prestige, the Demon Master is no less than us; in terms of kinship, Kunpeng is more respected by you. Why then have you come to persuade us to join your cause?"
Bai Ze explained helplessly, "The Demon Master is timid and unwilling to take a gamble, so we came to the Starry Sky."
Di Jun angrily said, "You demon master Kunpeng is a coward. You really don't understand him. Wasn't it him who directed you to come looking for us?"
Taiyi sternly reprimanded, "Bai Ze, you are very clever, but you lack wisdom. The divine beasts are powerful now; it's not the time for the demon race to rise up. The key lies with the True Saint!"
Bai Ze replied timidly, "I truly do not know."
After speaking
Nine phoenixes and nine qilins entered the starry sky.
The sacred beasts White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird pursued Di Jun and Tai Yi.
Xihe was seriously injured, Changxi was on the verge of death, and the four sacred beasts were terrifyingly powerful when they went berserk.
The Azure Dragon, a sacred beast, shattered countless stars. The four sacred beasts questioned in unison, "How dare you attempt to establish a new Heavenly Court?"
Bai Ze was terrified; it suspected someone had betrayed it!
At the same time
The Demon Master Palace entertains distinguished guests
Nuwa was weak and exhausted, while the Green Emperor Fuxi had a bruised and swollen face. The divine couple came to confront them and demand an explanation.
"Kunpeng, you're truly despicable! You actually sent Bai Ze to us to build a new Heavenly Court!"
"Kunpeng, don't you know that the True Saint of the Divine Beast lineage still exists?"
Kunpeng shrugged and explained, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. Bai Ze tricked us."
The summit of Buzhou Mountain
With the Xuanhuang Pagoda above Luo Hou's head and Hongjun activating the Chaos Bell, the two Primordial Saints continuously attacked the Ancestral Dragon.
Under the combined attack of the eight True Saints, and from both inside and outside, the Ancestral Dragon completely transformed into the Dao.
