Rewriting the Gods

Chapter 642 The Calm Before the Battle!

There were quite a few immortals from the Chaos: twenty-five Quasi-Saints, two hundred and eighty Great Luo Golden Immortals, thirteen thousand Taiyi Golden Immortals, and three hundred thousand Golden Immortals. But apart from the Quasi-Saints, the number of immortals of all ranks was greater than the number of beings from the Chaos.

The human race previously had over 800,000 Golden Immortals, nearly 50,000 Taiyi Golden Immortals, and over 330 Daluo Golden Immortals. Now, after 300,000 Huiyuan of development, the number has increased once again, with the number of Golden Immortals exceeding one million, over 60,000 Taiyi Golden Immortals, and 400 Daluo Golden Immortals!

This number is enough to completely suppress the chaotic beings. Even if we were to engage in a full-scale battle with all the chaotic beings, the human race would not be afraid.

The only thing lacking is a quasi-saint level master. The difficulty of attaining quasi-saint status is extremely high, and it basically depends entirely on one's own enlightenment. The only thing that can significantly help in breaking through to quasi-saint status is a sage preaching the Dao. Jiang Haofeng can satisfy this requirement. Jiang Haofeng cultivates ten thousand Daos. Perhaps his understanding of a single Dao is not as good as that of a sage, but cultivating ten thousand Daos at the same time makes him more suitable for preaching the Dao. He can preach the Dao to each person individually according to the Dao they are cultivating, which is more helpful than a sage preaching the Dao.

If Jiang Haofeng were willing to preach, the human race should be able to produce five or six more quasi-saints in a short period of time. After all, the human race's immortals have never enjoyed very good treatment in their cultivation so far. It may not be uncommon for the immortals of the three religions to preach, but it is extremely rare for the human race's immortals.

After all, the human race did not have any saints at the beginning. Later, Jiang Haofeng became comparable to a saint and had the ability to preach. At that time, the human race's development had reached its peak. In addition, the world occupied by the quasi-saints was too important. If they were to hold sermons on a large scale, the Great Tribulation would probably arrive before 200,000 Huiyuan.

At least before the main body breaks through, one cannot preach the Dao extensively within the clan. However, it will not have a significant impact. The immortals have accumulated enough knowledge; they are just one step away from breaking through. The more they accumulate, the easier it will be to achieve that final breakthrough.

Once the true body breaks through, the Dao will be taught once every ten thousand years. In less than one cycle, the number of quasi-saints in the human race will experience an explosive growth!

Of course, that's all in the future. Right now, the human race can still handle these Chaos Quasi-Saints. Jiang Haofeng had just glanced at them and found that only the Demon Race's Quasi-Saints were worth mentioning; the twenty from the Dragon and Phoenix Races were far too weak.

They didn't even need the Quasi-Saints to make a move; the peak Grand Luo Golden Immortals of the clan, combined with the clan's Myriad Fiends God-Slaying Formation, could kill them like slaughtering dogs! Without these people, the few humans from the Demon Clan could be dealt with with ease.

Moreover, although the human race is currently separated into two places, both places have the foundation of saints. The Zhou Tian Star Array in the Heavenly Court and the Twelve Golden Men of Zhonghuang Mountain, once activated, could annihilate all chaotic beings in just a few breaths. And these two foundations are unknown to the immortals of the primordial world outside.

Thinking of this, Jiang Haofeng couldn't help but shake his head and smile. In fact, the chaotic demonic tribulation that Jieyin had summoned this time was completely ineffective against the human race and could not shake the foundation of the human race at all. The reason for this was very simple: the human race was good at holding back. Since the Investiture of the Gods, the human race had never gone all out and had not fully revealed its strength. This also led Jieyin to make a certain misjudgment of the human race's situation.

If the human race wanted to, they could tear this so-called Chaotic Demonic Tribulation apart at any time. But there's no need to do that. It's better to play along with Jieyin, distract him, and prevent him from thinking of new schemes, thus giving the main body time to break through.

Furthermore, the Great Calamity of the Primordial Era is a true sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's heads. In any case, enough immortals need to be sacrificed to balance the three realms. If the human race doesn't want to sacrifice, then other forces will have to do it.

These chaotic forces are not from the Western Buddhist sect, so naturally they cannot obey the Buddhist sect's orders. The Buddhist sect simply wants to guide various forces to surround the human race by paying a certain price. This is something that the Western sect can do, and the human race can do too!
Since I have nothing better to do, I might as well have some fun with Buddhism and use the Buddha to fill the void in the Heavenly Dao and quell the primordial calamity! I just don't know how things are going with my true self, or how long it will take for him to break through. The future development of humanity depends entirely on my true self being able to break through.

If I cannot break through, then all is lost!

·······
Meanwhile, deep within the chaos, Jiang Haofeng sat cross-legged in the void, his pure Dao of Power relentlessly forging the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book before him like an iron hammer. With each strike, a trace of the imperceptible Dao of Wisdom was shaken out and dissipated into the endless void.

Although the power of the Great Dao that was shaken out was very weak compared to the original Great Dao of Wisdom, little by little, it accumulated. Now, Jiang Haofeng has already hammered it for 300,000 huiyuan, and 80% of the Great Dao of Wisdom has been shaken apart. Jiang Haofeng estimates that in less than 60,000 to 70,000 huiyuan, the Great Dao of Power carried in the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Number will be completely dispersed.

At that time, Jiang Haofeng can begin preparing for his path to enlightenment.

While obliterating the Great Dao, Jiang Haofeng checked the status of his avatar. Since there was no news, it didn't have much of an impact.

When Jiang Haofeng was preparing to unleash a storm of cause and effect and go into seclusion to prove his Dao, he left a message for his avatar: if the human race encountered a major crisis and was in danger of extinction, the avatar would contact him directly and ask him to return to the primordial world.

The avatar was created from a wisp of Jiang Haofeng's true spirit, and its life was connected to Jiang Haofeng's. Even though they were separated by billions of miles, they could still sense each other. In addition, both Jiang Haofeng's true self and the avatar were proficient in the Dao of Cause and Effect, and could completely connect across the endless chaos.

However, with Hongjun overseeing the primordial world, if his avatar contacts him, his location will be exposed, rendering the chaotic storm that swept through the primordial world meaningless. But all of this is predicated on the premise that humanity is safe and sound. If humanity faces a major crisis, he will undoubtedly take the woven Wheel of the Great Dao to the primordial world and reason with the sages!

He can unleash a causal storm that sweeps across the entire chaos, and he can also bring down endless calamities!
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Jiang Haofeng's attention returned to the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book before him. After a short rest, he once again transformed the Great Dao of Power into an iron hammer and began to pound the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book. This was the most efficient method of obliterating the Great Dao that Jiang Haofeng had discovered over the years. Compared to directly obliterating it with the power of the Great Dao, this method of pounding and vibrating was more than twice as efficient!
·······
Just as Jiang Haofeng was preparing his ultimate treasure for proving his Dao, all the chaotic beings from the three domains of the Primordial World entered the Primordial World.

Above the North Sea, three hundred thousand chaotic beings gathered. After entering the primordial world, the immortals automatically converged here. Three hundred thousand immortals gathered together, the weakest of whom was a Golden Immortal. Their vast pressure shook the heavens and earth.

At the same time, after entering the primordial world, the chaotic power within everyone suddenly became incompatible, and a faint sense of disgust permeated the world. Clearly, the primordial world itself did not like these outsiders.

At the center of the crowd, twenty-five Quasi-Saints gathered together. At the very core stood five people: the three powerful figures from the Demon Realm—Ketu, Wutian, and Wuxin—as well as Ao Shan from the Dragon Realm and Qing Xuan from the Phoenix Clan. The first three were at the peak of Quasi-Saint level and the latter at the late stage of Quasi-Saint level. As for the latter two, they were both at the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint level. However, at this time, they were considered the strongest among the Dragon and Phoenix Clans, stronger than the other mid-stage Quasi-Saints, barely reaching the level of mid-stage Quasi-Saints in the Primordial Era.

At this moment, the five people gathered here, but there was no excitement on their faces, instead, they looked desperate.

Admittedly, everyone knew the prehistoric world was dangerous, and Subhuti certainly wasn't telling the truth. But no one expected that Subhuti's words would differ so greatly from reality. They thought that at most, they would be deceived by Subhuti and become henchmen of the Western Buddhist sect, but unexpectedly, in the prehistoric world, they would be killed at the slightest disagreement.

Although they had temporarily survived, they saw no hope of survival. Killing a fellow immortal of the same level would allow them to leave the prehistoric world, and even if the prehistoric sages kept their word, these were all quasi-sage level cultivators; how difficult would it be to kill someone of the same level?

Moreover, there are very few immortals who have cultivated to the Quasi-Saint level, and even fewer independent cultivators. Most belong to certain factions, and there's no guarantee that a Saint might be standing behind them. Not only are they difficult to kill, but even if they were, there's no guarantee they wouldn't face trouble from their elders once they leave the prehistoric world. Sticking one's neck out means death, hiding one's neck out means death, killing one means death, not killing one also means death—either way, it's all the same: death!
At this moment, the faces of the Chaos Supremes were extremely grim. Deep within the Chaos, they were all top-tier beings, revered by countless living beings; when had they ever faced such a predicament? Now, trapped in the primordial wilderness, with the danger of annihilation looming before them, their hearts were filled with regret. Had they known this would happen, they would never have gotten involved in this mess in the first place.

Among the crowd, Ao Shan of the Dragon Clan was the first to speak, "Senior Ji Du, what should we do?"

Jidu glanced at it and said coldly, "How would I know? I am now also a fish on a chopping board. Many primordial saints are high above the chaos. What can I do?"

At this moment, the Demon God Jidu was also filled with solemnity. He had only been ordered by the Demon Ancestor to take this opportunity to investigate the situation in the prehistoric world and to trace the origin of the previous causal storm.

Although he had anticipated being targeted by the Primordial Saints before arriving, and the Demon Ancestor had provided countermeasures, it was still something Ji Du had not expected that a Saint would try to kill them as soon as they appeared.

Ji Du sneered inwardly. "Just a few lucky little guys who obtained the position of saint through Hongjun. When the demon race returns and occupies the prehistoric world, I will surely be the one to hold this position of saint!"
Unlike the others, Jidu was someone who fought against the Dao Ancestor alongside Luo Hou during the Great Tribulation of Dao and Demon. Back then, the Demon Ancestor fought against Hongjun, Yangmei, Qiankun, and the Four Immortals of Yin and Yang alone, while Jidu and the others fought against the Three Pure Ones, Zhen Yuanzi, Nuwa, and others.

Tongtian and the others were merely Jidu's peers. In Jidu's mind, the Heavenly Saint was not the lofty and unapproachable being that ordinary people held in high esteem.

As the thoughts settled in his mind, Jidu looked up at the somewhat bewildered Dragon and Phoenix Supremes, "You already know the current situation. Obviously, the other side did not consider you as part of the primordial Dragon and Phoenix races. If you cannot kill the immortals, you will not escape the fate of annihilation!"

"I do not wish to interfere with your actions. You have come here in such a grand manner, it is certainly not because of Subhuti's few deceitful words. Whatever you are planning to do in secret, I will not interfere with you. Do whatever you want."

"But there is one thing: we must both live. To live, we must slaughter the Primordial Immortals. The Primordial Realm is the undisputed core of Chaos. Even if the Sages do not intervene, it is not a soft persimmon to be bullied. If our three realms are separated, there will only be one outcome: to be defeated one by one by the Primordial Immortals!"

"The Three Realms Alliance, advancing and retreating together, this is my only requirement. Only in this way can we have a glimmer of hope!"

"If you are unwilling, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

The Demon God Jidu's eyes narrowed, and the immense pressure of a peak Quasi-Saint swept out. The Quasi-Saints of the Dragon and Phoenix clans immediately showed solemn expressions and hurriedly said, "We dare not!"

"That's good!"

Jidu nodded and withdrew his oppressive aura.

After a moment of contemplation, Qingxuan spoke again: "Senior Jidu, what should we do next? Should we choose one force to attack together?"

"No rush, let's wait a bit. Someone will be willing to choose a target for us!"

Having said that, Jidu closed his eyes and said no more.

Upon seeing this, the dragon and phoenix clans exchanged a glance and then returned to their respective camps.

After the two left, Jidu opened his eyes again, looked at the four Moroes around him, and pointed his finger at the sky. The four of them were immediately alarmed. In the primordial world, their every word and action could probably not escape the detection of a sage.

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Jidu nodded and said, "Let's proceed according to the plan."

The four Moroes bowed and replied, "Yes!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the five of them each created an avatar and flew towards the primordial land, each heading to a different destination.

Meanwhile, in the neighboring Dragon and Phoenix clans, the Quasi-Saints and Supremes also began to discuss their next actions. Before coming here, the two clans had already discussed their plans, but Tongtian's words completely disrupted their plans.

After a while, both races tacitly agreed not to disturb their own races in the prehistoric world, only sending people to investigate the situation there, without taking any further action. Upon arriving in the prehistoric world, the chaotic beings of the three domains all appeared very cautious.

In Zhonghuang Mountain, Jiang Haofeng slowly withdrew his gaze. Behind him, twelve golden figures emitted a faint golden light, and twelve golden rays rose up, transforming into a profound Dao of Power that empowered Jiang Haofeng.

As the leader of the ten demon gods under Rahu, Ketu is extremely powerful, probably on the same level as Styx Ancestor. Without using the power of the Twelve Golden Men, Jiang Haofeng would not be able to investigate his words and actions without anyone noticing.

As planned, Rahu sent him with another purpose. In the original primordial timeline, after the Journey to the West, came the Calamity of the Rise of Demons. Kinnara of Buddhism transformed into the Buddha Wutian and occupied the Thirty-Three Heavens of Mount Ling, which lasted for thirty-three years in the mortal realm.

The primordial world has undergone tremendous changes because of his arrival, but Wutian still came, and not only did he come, he also brought an even more powerful demon god, Jidu!
