Cultivating Immortals in Two Worlds: From Qing Fu to Primordial Chaos

Chapter 496 Freedom of Other Transformation
Upon hearing this, Daoist Taiwei was not angry, but simply smiled.

“Fellow Daoist Houtu, all who come are guests. Besides, we are both officials in the same court, so we should have some mutual respect. Wouldn’t it be impolite of you to refuse me entry directly?”

Before the palace steps, the Earth Goddess Houtu quietly appeared, looking down at the purple-robed Taoist below.

The Earthly Emperor Palace and the Purple Star Palace did have some connection tens of thousands of years ago, but with the defeat of the Jiuli tribe, this connection was long gone.

As for the fact that they are both among the Four Emperors, that is only a superficial relationship.

Deep down, Houtu Huangdiqi felt more vigilance than anything else.

After all, she had just joined forces with Zhulong not long ago.

What worried her more was that the uninvited guests had come today, probably with their eyes on her imperial palace.

However, since the Nine Netherworld is currently under his complete control, she is not particularly worried.

If something unexpected happens in the Netherworld, both sides will almost certainly perish.

Houtu Huangdi Zhi Fengmu looked at Taiwei Daoren for a moment and said.

"Fellow Daoist Taiwei, please speak frankly. There is no possibility of cooperation between us. Now that you have finished speaking, please leave!"

"It has been a long time since I have taken action to drive away unwelcome guests!"

Upon seeing this, Daoist Taiwei sighed softly.

This lady has done great deeds for Heaven and Earth, and if there is a way, he really does not want to fight her.

However, after observing the attitude of the Earth God and the Earth Deity, it was clear that they were unwilling to talk to him.

After a moment's thought, Daoist Taiwei decided to make one last attempt and then spoke frankly.

"Fellow Daoist Houtu is also a sacred being from the other shore of heaven and earth, capable of observing the changes in the wild world. Our Xuanmen's great fortune is in harmony with the post-heaven era, destined to represent the post-heaven era and replace the ancient gods of the pre-heaven era!"

"Throughout history, those who follow the natural order of heaven and earth have been able to receive the blessings of heaven and earth, while those who go against the will of heaven rarely have a good end!"

"I know that Fellow Daoist Houtu's Dao is related to the earth and reincarnation. If you want to elevate yourself, you must grasp the operating laws of the universe and the Great Dao. However, the coefficients of change in the operation of the universe are in the hands of my Grand Master Taiqing. Fellow Daoist, unless you walk the earth or the path of reincarnation alone, the earth and the path of reincarnation are too extensive. There are also several Dao Venerables in my Xuanmen who have traveled the earth and cultivated the Great Dao of reincarnation!"

"Fellow Daoist has already reached the limit of this path, unless there is an external force to push you forward!"

"After much thought, I realize that there are few in this world who can help you, fellow Daoist. Apart from my Xuanmen sect, no one else can do this!"

He decided to lay out the pros and cons completely, not afraid that other gods on the other side of the world would overhear.

He paused slightly, then continued.

"Fellow Daoist Houtu is born with compassion. Even if you don't think of yourself, you should still have a heart of pity for all living beings in the world!"

Houtu Huangdizhi glanced at Taiwei Daoren and sneered.

"Fellow Daoist Taiwei, if you have finished speaking, you may leave now!"

Her expression was indifferent.

Admittedly, after achieving the other shore, her subsequent path was almost entirely confined by the Xuanmen (Taoist sect), but this does not mean she had no chance.

She also didn't believe that the Xuanmen sect could become the eternal overlord of the desolate world.

Just like the ancient demon court before, even if it was once illustrious, it would gradually fall apart due to the uneven distribution of benefits.

She only needs to sit back and watch the other party build a tall building and entertain guests until one day the tall building collapses.

Master Taiwei sighed slightly and shook his head.

"Pity!"

He didn't say these words directly, but instead used his divine sense to transmit them.

Houtu Huangdiqi frowned, a sudden sense of alarm rising in her heart. The next moment, her expression changed as she felt herself suddenly lose contact with the Wheel of Life and Death in the center of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Palace.

At the same time, an invisible force of reincarnation emanated from the Six Paths of Reincarnation, suddenly enveloping the entire Netherworld.

This power of reincarnation is exactly the same as the power of reincarnation she controls; both are at the Other Shore level.

Inside the Hall of Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Yan Ju's figure appeared, and the boundless cycle diagram around his body slowly changed. An invisible aura flowed out from the Six Paths of Reincarnation Palace, enveloping the entire Nine Netherworld.

The enraged Left Saint Emperor and Rakshasa Emperor before him had lost themselves in the Immeasurable Reincarnation Diagram and were gradually turning into an infant.

Not far away, the Great Heavenly Venerable of Ten Directions of Light saw his actions, his face expressionless, but there was a hint of bitterness in his expression.

Above the steps of the Earthly Palace.

Empress Houtu suddenly raised her head and looked at Daoist Taiwei, exclaiming in surprise and anger.

"Taiweizi, how dare you!"

A startling aura burst forth from the depths of her eyes, and a magnificent power of reincarnation emerged around her, as if she wanted to break out of the entire Earthly Palace.

Almost simultaneously, below the steps, above the head of the Taiwei Daoist, a treasure map with countless celestial stars shimmering and flowing light appeared. Above it, a black and white aura flowed out, and an invisible Taiji diagram enveloped the entire Earthly Emperor Palace.

A magnificent figure, seemingly bearing the weight of the universe, appeared before the steps of the Earthly Emperor Palace.

He was dressed in a Taoist robe, wearing a crown, with white hair and a long beard, and his eyes shone with a gentle light, like the embodiment of the Tao in the world.

Under the whisk in the hand of the Taoist Master Taiqing, the magnificent Taiji diagram seemed to rotate like the Yin and Yang of heaven and earth. The Earth Goddess Houtu burst forth with unparalleled power of reincarnation, and the power of the earth immediately seemed to sink into a quagmire. No matter how angry she was or how she mobilized her own Dao Fruit of the Other Shore, she could not move.

As if plunged into the depths of a vast universe where the Great Dao flows, the cultivation of the primordial spirit atop the auspicious cloud was almost completely extinguished in an instant by the black and white energy.

Although Houtu Huangdiqi's Dao heart remained high and calm, she knew that she had fallen into a desperate situation.

Compared to other realms, the Great Daoist Taiqing, who governs the rules of the universe, is almost naturally able to restrain her Great Dao.

At this moment, she could only hope that the other gods on the other side could sense the changes deep within the Nine Netherworld, so that the Xuanmen would not succeed.

But deep down she knew that since several Xuanmen disciples had come from the other side, they must have a foolproof plan.

Furthermore, with someone using the power of reincarnation to seal off the Nine Netherworld, other gods on the other side might not be able to see through the deception. Above the River of Time.

Dressed in a silver-white Taoist robe, Zhulong had been keeping an eye on Taiwei Daoist ever since he entered the Nine Netherworld.

However, he was unable to extend the power of time to the area surrounding the Imperial Palace.

After all, the Nine Netherworld is the territory of the Earth Emperor's Palace, so he couldn't possibly go this far.

This is tantamount to directly monitoring the Earthly Palace, which is a provocation against the Earthly Goddess Houtu.

However, upon seeing the sudden rise of a reincarnation power from the Nine Netherworld to shield all changes deep within it, Zhulong couldn't help but frown.

He stood up slowly.

The moment the Taiwei Daoist entered the Nine Netherworld, the Empress Houtu sealed it off. This seems rather unusual.

"Isn't Fellow Daoist Houtu's behavior like trying to hide something obvious? Are you determined to side with the Xuanmen sect?"

His gaze shifted slightly; he felt this was unlikely.

Even if Houtu Huangdiqi wanted to join the Xuanmen, she didn't necessarily have to do it this way.

Unless she did it on purpose.

The real purpose of doing this was to discuss this matter with the Xuanmen (Taoist sect).

Besides, there is another possibility.

Houtu Huangdizhi is in trouble!

Zhulong's eyes flickered, and with a thought, a silvery-white river of time descended outside the Nine Netherworld, only to be blocked by the boundless power of reincarnation.

He immediately spoke up.

"Fellow Daoist Houtu, an old friend has come to visit, why not show yourself!"

Inside the Hall of Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Yan Ju and the Great Heavenly Venerable of Ten Directions of Light exchanged a glance, their expressions becoming slightly solemn.

"This Zhulong is not easy to deal with!"

Yan Ju looked toward the Great Heavenly Venerable of Light in the Ten Directions.

The Great Heavenly Venerable of Ten Directions of Light shook his head and said.

"Don't stare at me. Zhulong is meticulous. If I go out to deal with him, he might not believe me!"

He wasn't one of the people in the Earthly Emperor's Palace, so if he went out rashly, Zhulong would discover something amiss.

"It seems I'm the only one who can do it!"

Yan Ju looked helpless, but sighed inwardly. With a wave of his hand, a wisp of earth power instantly transformed into the graceful and dignified appearance of an ancient god.

She was dressed in a pale yellow palace gown, and her every move exuded a touch of languor and playfulness, with long eyelashes.

That was a goddess serving as a close attendant in front of the Earthly Emperor's Palace.

This is his "Sutra of Free Transformation," a cultivation that has reached his level, where transforming ordinary avatars is effortless, and even conjuring an entire world would not leave any flaws.

In an instant, the goddess transformed into a streak of light and arrived before the Nine Netherworld. Upon seeing the silver-haired old man in the distance, she bowed slightly and smiled naturally.

"So it's Senior Zhulong who has arrived. Please forgive us, Her Majesty is currently receiving distinguished guests and will not be seeing anyone else at the moment!"

Zhulong's gaze fell on the yellow-clad goddess before him. His eyes flickered slightly as he sensed the intense earth power emanating from her and her unique spiritual energy. Suddenly, his expression changed, and he raised his hand, sending a point of silvery-white light falling from his hand and instantly landing on the yellow-clad goddess.

In an instant, the yellow-clad goddess turned to ashes in astonishment.

Upon seeing this, Zhulong raised an eyebrow.

"it is true!"

He pondered to himself, and at the same time slightly raised his hand. An invisible force of time gathered in the spot, and the figure of the yellow-clad goddess was instantly reshaped, perfectly aligning with the time-space ray on her body.

"senior?"

The goddess in yellow's expression changed slightly at this moment.

Zhulong stood with his hands behind his back, his expression slightly indifferent, and suddenly asked a question.

"I wonder what kind of guest Fellow Daoist Houtu is seeing, that even I am ranked after her?"

The goddess in yellow cupped her hands in greeting.

"Your Majesty has given the order, and this servant dares not speak or ask. Please forgive me, senior!"

Zhulong's gaze flickered as he watched the flowing power of reincarnation before him. His doubts gradually dissipated, and with a mere wave of his hand, a surge of time power silently entered the body of the goddess in yellow, and his figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Upon seeing this, the goddess in yellow returned to the depths of the Netherworld.

Inside the Six Paths of Reincarnation Palace, Yan Ju sensed Zhulong's subtle movements and couldn't help but whisper.

"Old fox, no matter how cunning you are, you still have to drink my foot bath water!"

He did not directly recall that avatar, but let her walk towards the Earthly Palace.

Pretend not to notice the hidden power of time within the goddess in yellow.

It just slowed her pace down considerably.

At this time, in front of the imperial palace.

The light between the brows of the Taoist Taiqing flickered and split into three, transforming into three avatars that appeared around the Earth Goddess Houtu. Taiqing, Yuqing, and Shangqing immortal lights appeared respectively, suppressing the true form of the Earth Goddess Houtu.

"It's done!"

Seeing this scene, Taiwei Daoist smiled slightly. He turned around and instantly transformed into the figure of Houtu Huangdizhi, appearing in the same spot. At the same time, he raised one hand, and the Book of Life and Death appeared. The Judge's Pen flew out from Houtu Huangdizhi's body and landed in her palm!
