People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chapter 435 The Great Battle Ends, the Primordial World Evolves!
Beihai, Demon Master's Palace.

Kunpeng looked at the sun shining brightly in the sky, and listened to the sound echoing in his ears, his face full of shock and confusion.

"Why did young friend Yang Xuan become the master of the Sun Star? Why did young friend Yang Xuan use the Sun Star to contain the evil corpse? Why did the princess cooperate with young friend Yang Xuan to manifest the Moon Star?"

Kunpeng felt as if three big question marks had appeared above his head.

In fact, he wasn't surprised that Yang Xuan was able to sever his corpse and become a quasi-saint. Over the years, Yang Xuan had accumulated so much merit, a portion of which was merit from the Great Dao.
Even if he used all that merit to build up, Yang Xuan would still be able to successfully sever the corpse without any unexpected events.

Moreover, it is now certain that the reason why Styx was able to sever his own corpse and become a Quasi-Saint of the Three Corpses was because of Yang Xuan.

The fact that Yang Xuan was able to sever the good corpse in December and become a quasi-saint, and that Haotian and Jinmu were able to sever another corpse and become quasi-saints with two corpses, may also be due to Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan has the ability to help these people sever their corpses. He is also known for his profound good fortune and amazing comprehension. How could he possibly be stuck at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm?

Although Kunpeng and Yang Xuan had little contact, every encounter was memorable. He had long been certain that Yang Xuan would become a Quasi-Saint sooner or later.

I just didn't expect Yang Xuan to be able to kill the evil corpse so quickly.

But this was something he hadn't expected; he simply couldn't understand why Yang Xuan had become the Lord of the Sun Star.

After Lu Ya achieved quasi-sainthood by entrusting the Taiyin star to a benevolent corpse in December, he summoned the elders of the demon race to discuss matters and asked them to help him become the Lord of the Sun Star.

With the addition of December as a newly promoted Quasi-Saint, and December's proposal to first side with Lu Ya, thus putting pressure on other races in the prehistoric world,

Once Lu Ya finds the Fusang Tree and is expected to become the Lord of the Sun Star, he will be provided with manpower and material support. In the end, the elders of the demon race nodded in agreement.

Over the years, they have paid close attention to the Sun Star. Although they have never taken action, they have some understanding of who intends to seize the position of the Sun Star Lord.

Prior to this, they had never seen Yang Xuan go to the Sun Star, and he hadn't even ventured much into the ancient starry sky.

Yang Xuan, who had absolutely no intention of scheming for the position of Sun Star Lord, ended up becoming the Sun Star Lord instead.
Just like in December, he successfully used the Sun Star to support the Three Corpses, thus achieving Quasi-Sainthood.

This means that Yang Xuan gained the approval of the Sun Star and became the Lord of the Sun Star, not by taking advantage of the Heavenly Court's pardon, nor by using any underhanded means.

That doesn't make sense. No matter how bad Lu Ya is, no matter how much the Sun Star dislikes him, he is still the last three-legged golden crow in the prehistoric world and should be the Sun Star Lord's most formidable competitor.

On the other hand, Yang Xuan had never even been to the Sun Star. How could he gain the Sun Star's approval, not only making him the Sun Star Lord but also agreeing to let him use the Sun Star to slay his corpse?
Also, December's reaction didn't seem quite right. Back then, she was the one who led the way in supporting Lu Ya to become the Lord of the Sun Star, and she spoke with such righteous indignation.

Now that Yang Xuan has seized Lu Ya's position as the Lord of the Sun Star, shouldn't December be furious and take action to stop Yang Xuan from dismembering the corpse?

As it turned out, December showed absolutely no murderous intent, not even a hint of anger. Not only did she not make a move, but she also actively cooperated with Yang Xuan's announcement.

"What's going on?!"

Kunpeng scratched his head, looked at the sun in the sky, and finally sighed, deciding to pretend he hadn't seen it.

If it were anyone else who became the Lord of the Sun Star, he would have to do something to show his support, but Yang Xuan...

The demon race owes Yang Xuan too much. If it weren't for Yang Xuan, after the December corpse-slaying incident, the demon race in the North Sea, the far north, and the vicinity of the Undying Volcano might have been unharmed.

However, more than 70% of the demon race scattered in other parts of the prehistoric world are likely to die.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, whether the demon race can escape its current predicament and eliminate its karma depends entirely on Yang Xuan's help.

Especially now that Yang Xuan has successfully severed his corpse and become a quasi-saint, the chances of him helping the demon race get rid of their current situation have become even greater.

Both publicly and privately, the demon race has no reason to turn against Yang Xuan.

Moreover, December's attitude is representative of the demon race, and judging from her appearance, she probably knows something.

Given this situation, what other choices do the demon race have?

Inside the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.

Zhao Gongming stared blankly at Yang Xuan, his face filled with disbelief.

"It really worked! My little brother really succeeded?"

Like the other immortals around him, he didn't pay much attention to the matter of the Sun Star's authority; what they really cared about was Yang Xuan himself.

In terms of cultivation time, Yang Xuan could be considered a junior to everyone present.
But Yang Xuan stepped ahead of everyone else, successfully severing the evil corpse and becoming a genuine quasi-saint!

Logically speaking, these second-generation disciples of the Chan and Jie sects should address Yang Xuan as "senior" when they see him in the future.

This change truly exceeded everyone's expectations.
They knew that Yang Xuanfu had profound affinity and amazing comprehension, and was not far from the Quasi-Saint realm. He might even surpass them and achieve Quasi-Saint status before them.

But no one expected that Yang Xuan would be so fast, so far ahead of them, and actually cultivated the Great Tribulation Corpse-Slaying Technique during the Investiture of the Gods, successfully slaying the evil corpse.

Even Bixiao was stunned by the change and remained speechless for a long time.

Only after the strange phenomenon in the sky disappeared did he jump up excitedly, waving his arms vigorously, grabbing Yunxiao's arm beside him, and saying with great enthusiasm:

"Big sister, big sister, did you see that? Your little brother has become a Quasi-Saint! Your little brother has become a Quasi-Saint!!"

"Yes, he's become a Quasi-Saint..."

Even now, Yunxiao still felt like she was in a dream. She had some idea that Yang Xuan would become a Quasi-Saint, but who could have imagined that Yang Xuan could become a Quasi-Saint so quickly?

"From now on, when we see you again, we'll have to address you as our senior..."

Yunxiao gave a wry smile, his heart filled with emotion. He still vividly remembered when Zhao Gongming mentioned that he had taken on a follower in Yunmengze.

Yunxiao thought that this 'little brother' that Zhao Gongming had taken in was just one of his old cronies.

Unexpectedly, only a few eons have passed, and this junior has not only accomplished many momentous deeds that have shaken the entire primordial world, but also...

These disciples of the Jie Sect, following Yang Xuan, also gained quite a few benefits and accumulated some merit.
Today, Yang Xuan has made an earth-shattering achievement, becoming a Quasi-Saint and surpassing all the disciples of the Saints. He can be considered to be on par with ancient great powers such as Daoist Styx and Zhen Yuanzi.

But before Yunxiao could finish his reflection, Yang Xuan's voice came from not far away.

"Elder sister, you are mistaken." At some point, Yang Xuan's aura vanished, disappearing completely, and he spoke with a smile, appearing like an ordinary person.

“Back when I was still a Golden Immortal, my elder sister never asked me to address her as a senior. Now that I have only temporarily taken the lead, how can I ask my elder sister to call me a senior?”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Bixiao nodded excitedly, ran to Yang Xuan's side, habitually put her arm around his, and showed a look of admiration.

"Little brother, you're amazing! You've already become a quasi-saint. You'll have to protect me from now on!"

"Of course." Yang Xuan rubbed Bixiao's head, wanting to share his joy at the breakthrough.

Om-!
But at that moment, a terrifying aura emanated from the center of the Myriad Immortals Formation, instantly tearing it to shreds.

All the immortals from the Jie Sect and Chan Sect within the formation were sent flying backwards; only Yang Xuan was able to withstand them.
However, he did not stay in place. Instead, he retreated with the fluctuation of this aura, stood beside Bixiao, and looked towards the center of the great formation.

The Sage of Taiqing, the Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning, the Master of the Heavenly Gate, the Daoist of Reception, and the Daoist of Zhunti floated in mid-air.

Apart from the Supreme Saint, the other four saints all looked pale and weak, and were not in good condition.

The place where they were located was devoid of any signs of wind, water, or fire, completely transformed into chaos, a scene resembling the end of the world.

Furthermore, in this place where chaos has been reenacted, numerous black cracks have spread out and disappeared into the unseen distance.

Although the immortals present could not see the other parts of the prehistoric world, they could guess that these cracks had a significant impact on it.

Snap! Snap!
Before anyone could think further, a crisp sound suddenly rang in their ears.

However, the sound did not come from those cracks, but from the primordial world itself!

All living beings born in the primordial world, whether naturally or acquired, felt an inexplicable terror the moment they heard this voice.
A vague feeling crept into my heart that the primordial world was about to face an unprecedented crisis.
If this crisis cannot be overcome, the primordial world may very well come to an end.
But if we can overcome this crisis, the primordial world will become even more perfect.

call--!
Just as all living beings in the primordial world were filled with fear, countless elements of earth, wind, water, and fire emerged from the cracks in the sky.
This is not the ordinary earth, wind, water, and fire, but the four fundamental elements that constitute the primordial world!

Wherever the elements of earth, wind, water, and fire pass, all things, whether living beings or inanimate objects, are affected.
Everything was assimilated by the earth, wind, water, and fire, traced back to its origin, and reenacted, becoming part of the world's origin.

If the elements of earth, wind, water, and fire were allowed to rage unchecked, the primordial world would become nothing more than a giant furnace.

All living beings in the primordial world, and even the primordial world itself, will become fuel, providing energy for the evolution of the three realms in the primordial world.

From the perspective of the primordial world, as long as it can evolve into the Three Realms, even if the primordial world is destroyed, it can still evolve in a better direction.
As for the life and death of all living beings in the primordial world, the primordial world would not care. As long as there is enough time, even if all living beings die out, they can be reborn in the endless time.

The sages thought the same way. As long as the primordial world could evolve into the Three Realms, become more perfect, and take another step closer to the Eternal True Realm, then any price would be acceptable.

But Yang Xuan was different; he knew that after the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, the prehistoric world would usher in the Age of Dharma Decline.

Although he did not know the real reason for the end of the Dharma era, after learning that the real risk of the Investiture of the Gods calamity lay in the evolution of the Three Realms, he became the biggest suspect.

Yang Xuan suspected that during the evolution of the Three Realms, changes might have occurred that even the Dao Ancestor Hongjun had not foreseen.

This may be because the impact of the battle between sages was too great, pushing things too far and causing irreparable damage to the primordial world.
It is also possible that someone interfered, causing damage to the primordial origin or the destruction of the primordial earth veins.

The first possibility is not very likely. Saints are not affected by the calamity energy, and the primordial world is related to their path of cultivation. How could they really not be able to stop?

The second possible only problem is who this person who disrupted the evolution of the Three Realms in the primordial world is. To hide it from the deductions of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, it must at least be a saint.

This problem had troubled Yang Xuan for many years until he discovered traces of a soul demon within the Absolute Yin Dragon Pearl, which finally gave him a solution…

Or rather, there was a group of suspects: the three thousand gods and demons who obstructed Pangu from creating the world and ultimately died under Pangu's axe, becoming nourishment for the primordial world.

Those who are qualified to die under the axe of the Great God Pangu are probably not even qualified to be sub-saints. These three thousand gods and demons are likely all saints!
If more of these three thousand gods and demons were to come back to life, they might actually disrupt the primordial evolution of the Three Realms.

Moreover, they have ample motivation.

The primordial world was created by Pangu, and they were killed by Pangu. Therefore, it is reasonable for them to destroy the primordial world and bring it to its end.

As for what they will do, how many gods and demons will be resurrected, and how to deal with them, Yang Xuan didn't know, and even saints like Houtu couldn't figure it out.

If the goal of these gods and demons is to destroy the origin of the primordial world, Yang Xuan can only hope that his reminder will be effective and that the Heavenly Saints will take precautions.

If the goal of these gods and demons is to destroy the primordial earth veins and cause the primordial spiritual energy to drain away, leading the primordial world step by step towards the end of the Dharma era, then he has made some preparations.

Looking at the earth, wind, water, and fire constantly surging in the sky, Yang Xuan couldn't help but show a look of worry on his face.

Although she knew that Houtu could see this and would never sit idly by, she still couldn't help but call out:
"Your Majesty, it's time to make a move!"

"Ah."

Houtu's gentle voice echoed in Yang Xuan's ears.

next moment.

Houtu stepped out of the underground passage of reincarnation and arrived at Wuzhuang Temple. Zhen Yuanzi knew the seriousness of the matter and dared not delay in the slightest.

Without needing to say anything more, Houtu took out the Earth Book and activated this top-grade innate spiritual treasure with all her might.

However, his cultivation level was insufficient. Even if he exerted all his strength, he could not make the Earth Book protect the earth veins of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths of the Primordial World. At most, it could only protect the earth veins of the area surrounding Yuntai Mountain.

But with Houtu's help, things are different. Houtu is a true sage, a true representative, and her status is equal to Hongjun.

It possesses extraordinary spiritual cultivation, surpassing even the Six Sages of Heaven, and is also capable of mobilizing the power of the Earth.

If Houtu could help, it wouldn't be a problem to protect all the earth veins in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but ensuring that seven or eight ten percent of the earth veins would be safe.

Even if Houtu couldn't protect the earth's veins, as long as she used the Earth Book to protect them, she could monitor the earth's veins throughout the prehistoric world in real time.
If the Chaos Gods and Demons intend to attack the Earth's veins, Houtu will be able to sense it immediately and take appropriate action, preventing her from being too passive.

At the same time, Houtu's act of protecting the earth's veins can also be seen as a warning, making those chaotic gods and demons more wary.

If even a Heavenly Saint could devise a countermeasure, perhaps they could force the Chaos Gods and Demons to abandon their actions.

Unless they want to completely break ties and fight to the death with the sages of the primordial world, it is unlikely that they will take forceful action.

Of course, these are all Yang Xuan's conjectures; perhaps the Chaos Gods and Demons have other plans as well.

Houtu was aware of all this, and given the enemy's covert advantage and her own, this was all she could do.

Without any hesitation, Houtu immediately produced a finger and pointed it at the Earth Book...
