Jackie Chan Adventures: I have everything I need now

"joke."

"I am merely returning to the embrace of humanity; as for betrayal, how can that be considered a betrayal?!"

"Hongjun, you only imparted to me the Primordial Purple Qi and the innate spiritual treasures that were originally destined for me. I have never stood on your side. Betrayal is nothing but an illusion!"

Nuwa's aura was slightly weakened, but she still exuded a powerful Primordial Golden Immortal aura.

As the Heavenly Saint's status fell, Nuwa was forced to fall from the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm.

Having remained in the position of Heavenly Saint for too long, Nuwa comprehended the power of the laws of creation through her language, thereby elevating her fundamental realm from Quasi-Saint to Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.

Falling from the saintly position only causes the realm blessed by Heaven to decline, and one will only temporarily fall into a state of weakness.

All six sages of the heavens were aware of this.

However, no one dared to relinquish their sainthood, because in the past, the prehistoric world was ruled solely by Hongjun. If they were to relinquish their sainthood, they would surely be punished.

Now that he has lost his sainthood, Hongjun has absolutely no way of dealing with any of the six saints of the heavens.

The three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man jointly govern the primordial world, not solely through the words and actions of the Heavenly Realm.

Moreover, Nuwa is the creator of the human race. Even if he was in the Heavenly Realm in the past, now that he has changed his mind, the Human Realm will still grant Nuwa the position of a saint.

"presumptuous!"

Hongjun was instantly enraged and wanted to suppress Nuwa.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Houtu Niangniang, the representative of the underground world in the Nine Netherworld Reincarnation Land, suddenly raised her eyes and looked up at Nuwa and Hongjun in the sky.

With just a glance, he intervened across two realms to block Hongjun's attack.

In an instant, the primordial world trembled slightly.

This slight tremor caused Hongjun and Houtu to swallow hard.

They feared that the Great Way would once again descend to cleanse them.

Seeing Nuwa protected by Houtu, Hongjun snorted coldly, his eyes filled with extreme dissatisfaction, and then turned and returned to Zixiao Palace outside the Thirty-Three Heavens.

He had barely returned to Zixiao Palace and hadn't even settled in when he heard a voice that enraged Hongjun, yet he was powerless to do anything about it.

The primordial world.

The leader of the Jie Sect, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, one of the Three Pure Ones of Pangu, and Tongtian Jiaozhu, wielded the top-grade innate spiritual treasure Qingping Sword, and slashed at the Heavenly Dao space where a wisp of his primordial spirit resided.

In the blink of an eye, blood rained down from the heavens and earth, signifying the fall of yet another saint.

However, the world and all living beings now know the origin of this blood rain: the sage severed his own holy position, which is why the blood rain fell from the sky.

"Humph!"

A cold snort echoed through the heavens and earth, but Hongjun, the source of the sound, did not make a move and ignored it all.

Having just arrived at Zixiao Palace, not far from Zhunti and Jieyin witnessed the wonders of the prehistoric world and had strange thoughts arise in their minds.

It seems they can also sever their own sainthood, since even if their Heavenly Dao fruition falls, they can still maintain their Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm.

However, since they attained sainthood through loans, their own cultivation level would be extremely weak, making them arguably the weakest among the Primordial Golden Immortals.

"Junior brother."

Jieyin looked at the thoughts revealed in Zhunti's eyes and slowly shook his head.

He glanced at Zhunti, indicating that he should look towards Zixiao Palace.

Zhunti suddenly realized that they had come to Hongjun to ask for his help in settling the previous matters concerning the Journey to the West. If they were to relinquish their sainthood, wouldn't that mean breaking ties with Hongjun?!

Thinking of this, Zhunti withdrew his thoughts and hurriedly followed Jieyin into Zixiao Palace.

"..."

Taiyin star, Guanghan Palace.

Since learning that the capital city is the representative of humanity, almost none of the gods and immortals in the Heavenly Court dared to set foot in the Moon Palace without authorization.

This is because they dared to trespass on the Daoist temple of the Primordial Golden Immortal and the Sage of Humanity; it was tantamount to slapping the face of the Divine Capital.

The sacred site of a sage cannot be entered without permission; how can one enter there?

Now, Shen Du and Chang Xi, as the Sun Emperor and Moon Emperor of the Heavenly Court, have almost completely severed all ties with the Heavenly Court and have no communication with each other.

Even when the Heavenly Court is discussing important matters, they dare not send someone to summon them.

However, Nuwa and Tongtian, who have relinquished their sainthood, have already arrived at the Guanghan Palace.

“Sister Changxi, I haven’t had Moon Hanging Tea from Guanghan Palace in a long time.”

Chang Xi chuckled softly, "If Sister Nuwa likes it, she can pick some to take back and make tea."

"Brother Shen Du, I wonder if I am qualified to request the position of a Saint of Humanity?"

After a brief chat with Chang Xi, Nuwa looked at the mysterious and unfathomable Divine Capital to the side.

It should be noted that both of them were Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortals, yet Nuwa was unable to see through their divine realm.

It is conceivable that the current strength of the Divine Capital has reached a level that Nuwa can only dream of at this stage.

After merging with the human way, Shen Du's cultivation gradually utilized the power of the human way to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth and all living beings, and integrated the power of chaos, reaching the level of a half-step Primordial Golden Immortal.

I only want to tell you that once the Great Dao ends, with the help of the fortune of heaven and earth and the recognition of all living beings, one can achieve the state of the Primordial Golden Immortal.

This realm is also the realm where Houtu of the Earthly Dao and Hongjun of the Heavenly Dao reside.

"Can!"

After taking a sip of the Moon Hanging Tea, Shen Du spoke softly.

Nuwa possessed considerable human destiny, which is why the Heavenly Way was able to suppress the Human Way.

In any case, as a representative of humanity, he would never refuse Nuwa's request.

This is also the meaning of humanity.

"If that's the case, could you, fellow Daoist, grant me the status of a Saint of Humanity?"

Nuwa had a question.

Upon seeing this, Shen Du's eyes trembled.

"Can!"

"However, I will have to wait until after my sermon is over. Fellow Daoist Nuwa can communicate with all living beings in a single thought, and then I can bestow my rank."

"not now."

It was both an agreement and a denial, giving Nuwa a precise timeframe.

Nuwa, upon hearing this, did not feel displeased and nodded leisurely.

He then chatted with Chang Xi about everyday things.

Shen Du then turned to Tongtian and asked, "I wonder, Fellow Daoist Tongtian, what brings you to the Guanghan Palace to find me?!"

Tongtian was taken aback, then turned around and said, "To be honest, Brother Shendu, I also wish to obtain a Human Saint position. I wonder..."

Shen Du's brow furrowed instantly.

He was pondering whether or not to grant Tongtian the title of Saint.

To be honest, humanity is the way of all living beings.

The Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, Qilin Clan, Demon Clan, Witch Clan, and Human Clan are the leading races among all living beings in the world, and can occupy six of the Human Saint positions.

The next three to attain the status of a saintly being are Nuwa and Changxi.

Nuwa was chosen by humankind, after all, she was the creator of the human race.

Chang Xi was his Daoist partner, and even the gods admitted that they had selfish motives.

Whether or not to grant this last Human Saint position to Tongtian was something even the gods themselves were unsure about.

If the Witch Clan were removed, even the gods wouldn't hesitate to give away Tongtian's position as a saint of humanity.

After all, there is one point: the Wu tribe is the true lineage of Pangu, and the Three Pure Ones also belong to the true lineage of Pangu.

Logically speaking, the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man, and the three Pure Ones of Pangu, should each occupy the position of a sage in their respective realms.

However, there is the Wu Clan, who also belong to the Pangu lineage and hold the same status as the Three Pure Ones.

The indecisive god only communicates with his mind and humanity.

Half an incense stick's time gradually passed, but Tongtian was not in a hurry. He didn't care whether he wanted the position of a saint or not, mainly because the position of a saint represented the laws of heaven and earth.

The position of a sage can greatly help a Primordial Grand Luo Golden Immortal, whose cultivation speed is far faster than that of an ordinary Primordial Grand Luo Golden Immortal.

Meanwhile, the gods, in their interaction with humanity, reached a conclusion. Since Tongtian desired the status of a saint in the human realm, then it would be granted.

After all, the other party was one of the Three Pure Ones of Pangu.

In the original course of history, humanity wanted one of the Three Pure Ones to serve as a sage of humanity.

However, due to suppression by the Heavenly Dao, and the fact that the Three Pure Ones were also swallowed up by the Heavenly Dao, they were ultimately forced to give up.

Shen Du slowly opened his eyes, looked at Tongtian, and said, "Fellow Daoist Tongtian, is that alright?"

Upon hearing this, Tongtian immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, the time it takes for a person to attain the status of a saint in the human realm is the same as that of Fellow Daoist Nuwa."

Tongtian had no objection to this.

Nuwa didn't have it, and neither will he.

As the selection of the nine saints of the Good Humanity was finalized, Hongjun's voice reached Shen Du's ears.

"Fellow Daoist Shen Du, come to Zixiao Palace for a chat."

Hongjun, who thought victory was assured, was stunned by Shen Du's question.

"What are you going to do at your dilapidated Zixiao Palace?!"

"Are you trying to set up a formation in Zixiao Palace to ambush me?!"

Caught off guard by these words, Hongjun was caught completely off guard.

"Hongjun, what do you mean by this?"

"Send me to Zixiao Palace?!"

Suddenly, Houtu from the Nine Netherworlds of Reincarnation abruptly intervened.

In an instant, the sound transmission that pierced through the void allowed the three to converse across countless distant years and spaces.

In the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun's expression was calm, his gaze looking down upon the primordial world, as if looking down into the Nine Netherworlds and the Yin realm.

He slowly began, “I invite the Heavenly Saints and Primordial Golden Immortals of the Primordial World to gather at Zixiao Palace to discuss matters concerning the next Great Tribulation.”

"Where would you two like to discuss this?"

The Great Tribulation of Journey to the West is a calamity ordained by Heaven for the West.

It's called a great calamity, but it's really just a formality.

Journey to the West?

Houtu uttered two words, then her cold voice echoed through the void, "The great calamity ordained by the Heavenly Dao has nothing to do with my Earthly Dao."

Shen Du also said, "The Heavenly Tribulation is something we humans do not wish to get involved in."

"I hope Fellow Daoist Hongjun will make his own arrangements!"

The two men's words infuriated Hongjun.

What is meant by the Heavenly Tribulation? It has nothing to do with either of you.
Thinking about the future, avoiding the Journey to the West might potentially revive them.

If the Great Dao had not been in control of the primordial world, the existence of the Journey to the West would have been irrelevant.

But now that the Great Dao is in control of the primordial world, this journey to the West must continue.

Hongjun suppressed his anger and said, "Gentlemen, this Journey to the West is of paramount importance. It is not merely a matter of the Heavenly Dao, but a major event for the entire primordial world."

"If you two do not participate, don't blame me for not warning you about the consequences later."

Upon hearing this, both the gods and Houtu fell into deep thought.

In their eyes, the Journey to the West was nothing more than an ordinary Western flourishing; what did it have to do with them?
"Gentlemen, this Journey to the West is about extinguishing the resentment of three thousand demons!"

"If this journey to the West is not continued, the Beast King Shenni, who was born from the resentment of three thousand demon gods at the beginning of the creation of the world, will be revived with the help of the evil forces of heaven and earth!"

"If we were to unleash another calamity of ferocious beasts, the consequences would be beyond what the three of us could bear."

Seeing that the two were hesitant to answer, Hongjun finally revealed his true feelings.

This journey to the West is not as simple as it seems.

The journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures was for the salvation of all living beings.

To dispel malevolent energy and extinguish resentment.

The rise of the West was due to the Western Buddhist sect suppressing the resentment of the three thousand demon gods that had transformed into the Divine Rebellion.

Not only that, there was one more thing that Hongjun didn't say.

As one of the three thousand demon gods, he understood the immortality of the Chaos Demon God.

Even at the time of creation, it was cleaved in two by Pangu, its form and spirit annihilated, vanishing into nothingness.

But the Chaos God will not die easily.

They are the embodiment of the laws of the Great Dao, and as long as the Great Dao exists, they will not die.

They will only stay in the long river of history, waiting for the right opportunity to return.

If Shenni were to revive and once again unleash a calamity of ferocious beasts, it could potentially bring back the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods one by one.

Hongjun's ranking and strength among the three thousand Chaos Demons was neither high nor low.

Knowing the strength of the top-ranked Chaos Gods, even a single Chaos God emerging from the Great Dao River could turn the entire prehistoric world upside down.

"what?!"

"Beast King Divine Rebellion?"

"Wasn't he killed by your Alliance of Myriad Races at the very beginning of creation?"

Houtu's expression changed drastically.

She is an ancestral witch, a being born after the era of the ferocious beast Long Han.

She only knew a little about the long history.

The Beast King Shenni, Houtu only knew that he had perished in the encirclement and attack of all races.

Who would have thought that the Beast King's divine power was still alive?!
Thinking of this, Houtu spoke softly, "I will go to Zixiao Palace later to discuss the Journey to the West and how to appease Shenni's resentment!"

Upon hearing this, Hongjun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the hesitant Shendu.

"Fellow Daoist, what about you?"

Hongjun couldn't quite understand Shendu. It was a being from the Three Thousand Worlds evolved from fragments of the Primordial World, who had crossed the World Sea to come to the Primordial World.

After some thought, Shen Du realized that the impact of this divine rebellion and revival would probably be even more severe than the great rise of the West.

In my previous life, I only read about it in the novel I was writing. The Beast Emperor Shenni was formed from the resentful corpses of three thousand demon gods after their deaths. As soon as he appeared in the world, he ruled over the ferocious beast race and wanted to destroy the primordial world and bring back the chaotic era of the past.

However, they were blocked by powerful beings such as Hongjun, the three ancestors of dragon, phoenix and qilin.

He thought that Journey to the West was about plundering the fortune of the human race, but he didn't expect it to be about extinguishing the resentment of three thousand demons.

Since that was the case, Shendu no longer held an opposing attitude.

After all, the future direction of the primordial world is no longer something he can control.

Following the Journey to the West is the best outcome.

As for what will happen after Journey to the West, it depends on whether the prehistoric world will see a great battle for supremacy between the protagonists of heaven and earth, similar to the eras of the Lich King and the Dragon King.

"I will be heading to Zixiao Palace shortly."

As soon as Shen Du spoke, Hongjun's voice came, "Good."

"Then this humble Taoist will await your arrival at Zixiao Palace!"

"..."

After ending the communication, Shendu turned to look at Nuwa Tongtian, only to see that the two had different expressions, as if there was some bad omen.

"what happened?"

Shendu asked.

"Hongjun wants us to go to Zixiao Palace to discuss the important matters of the previous Journey to the West."

"But the two of us have already betrayed Hongjun, this..."
