Jackie Chan Adventures: I have everything I need now

In Zixiao Palace.

Houtu glared at Hongjun's words, her eyes flashing with anger.

He wanted to immediately take action and discuss martial arts with this old man.

Hongjun keenly sensed the awkward atmosphere, and looked at Houtu with cold eyes, saying, "Fellow Daoist Houtu, if you are still stubborn and want to compete with me, I am not unwilling."

"Just fight, no matter who you are afraid of!"

"You old Taoist priest, do you think I'm afraid of you?!"

Houtu was furious. In the past, the witches and demons had been interfered with by Hongjun. Otherwise, their witch clan would be the current rulers of heaven and earth. How could they have fallen to such a state?!
"Two people, two people!"

Seeing that things were not going well, the gods quickly intervened to stop it.

They were afraid the two would fight.

After all, if the representatives of Heaven and Earth fight each other, the final outcome will either be a stalemate for millions of years, or it will lead to the Great Dao descending to punish them once again.

Although the Great Dao will not descend upon the primordial world for such a trivial matter, it is still necessary to take precautions just in case.

"Now the Beast King Shenni has been resurrected, leading billions of ferocious beasts to invade and destroy the primordial world!"

"We three, as representatives of the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man in the primordial world, must not quarrel among ourselves here."

"We should deal with the Beast King Shen Ni and the ferocious beast clan first."

"..."

As Shen Du spoke, both of them put aside their hostility. Hou Tu snorted coldly, "I'm giving face to Fellow Daoist Shen Du."

Hongjun nodded slightly and said, "Good!"

Seeing that the two sides had temporarily calmed down, Shen Du spoke in a deep voice, “I know nothing about the Beast Emperor Shen Ni and the ferocious beast race. Fellow Daoist Hou Tu was born in the era of the Lich King and the Demon King. I’m afraid you don’t know much about the ferocious beast calamity at the beginning of the creation of the world.”

"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, could you please enlighten us?"

Upon hearing the question, Hongjun remained calm, and with a slight wave of his hand, a stream of light transformed into a prayer mat. "Please."

Shen Du didn't stand on ceremony and sat cross-legged on the futon.

Houtu gave her a cold look and sat upright on her prayer mat.

"The ferocious beast race was born from the resentment of the three thousand demon gods that Pangu killed when he created the world, combined with the creatures of the primordial world."

"Once they wipe out a race, the remains of that race will transform into a tangible race of ferocious beasts, whose obsession is like the resentment of a demon god, wanting to destroy the primordial world and recreate chaos."

"The ferocious beast king, the Beast King Shenni, is a being formed from the resentment of three thousand demon gods and the flesh and corpses of three thousand demon gods, possessing the supreme power to destroy the primordial world."

"Even back then, it took me and many powerful beings from the primordial world to defeat him through a group attack."

"However, its remains could not be completely destroyed and could only be suppressed in the Beast King Mountain in the far north."

"Now that he has been reborn, I have used the treasure of the Great God Pangu, the Jade Disc of Creation, to deduce his current realm."

"He is at the peak of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm."

"With the three of us, we are only one step away from becoming Primordial Golden Immortals."

"At that time, even if the three of us join forces, we will not be able to stop the Beast Emperor Shenni in the entire prehistoric world."

These words were spoken to let Shen Du and Hou Tu know the strength and danger of the Beast Emperor Shen Ni.

As Shen Du listened to Hongjun's words, his eyes fell into deep thought.

At this moment, Houtu said calmly, "The three of us are all Primordial Golden Immortals."

"Even if the Beast Emperor Shenni breaks through to the Primordial Golden Immortal realm, so what?!"

"Three against one, the advantage is in our hands!"

“Hongjun, you are a Dao Ancestor, why are you afraid of this being that is already far behind the times and whose cultivation is a realm below ours?”

Although his words were plain, they subtly belittled and questioned the veracity of what Hongjun had said.

After all, the Journey to the West story involves things like extinguishing the resentment of three thousand demons and gods.

Now, the Beast King Shen Ni, the embodiment of the resentment of three thousand demon gods, has been resurrected.

Perhaps the words she speaks now are still meant to deceive Houtu and the human rights representative Shendu beside her.

One against three at the same cultivation level?!
Who would believe that?!

Even the Eastern Emperor Taiyi back then was able to fight six people at once because of the innate treasure, the Chaos Bell.

Without the Chaos Bell, Donghuang Taiyi could only fight two at most.

Moreover, the higher one's skill level, the lower the probability of fighting multiple opponents.

In a one-on-one fight between beings at the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal level, if another Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal were to intervene, the outcome would already be decided.

Just like in the era of the Investiture of the Gods, Shangqing Tongtian, who had unleashed the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, knew that the formation had been broken and that he was powerless to contend with the four Heavenly Saints. So he chose to go back and set up the Myriad Immortals Formation.

With the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation broken and the Six Soul Banner gone, how could he possibly contend against four Heavenly Saints on his own?

Ultimately, they chose to fight to the death, reforging the earth, fire, wind, and water, reopening heaven and earth, and starting everything anew.

Isn't this the same principle?

Three against one, and they still can't defeat a single Beast King, Shenni?!

Moreover, judging from Hongjun's words, the Beast Emperor Shenni is at the peak of the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm, while the three of them are at the Hunyuan Wuji Golden Immortal realm. They only need to take action themselves, and they can suppress this Beast Emperor Shenni in less than half a day. Why bother with so much effort?
"Fellow Daoist Houtu, you are mistaken."

"This Beast Emperor Shenni is no ordinary being, even if his current cultivation level is at the peak of the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm."

"Even if the three of us personally go into battle, we probably won't be able to do anything to him."

Upon hearing this, Shen Du was surprised.

The further you progress, the greater the difference in skill level becomes.

This is not a fantasy world.

It is possible to fight against opponents of higher ranks.

Seeing this, Shendu couldn't help but voice his doubts, "Fellow Daoist Hongjun, what is your explanation for this?"

"The three of us are Primordial Golden Immortals, and with the support of three powers, suppressing a peak Primordial Golden Immortal is as easy as turning one's hand. Why do you look so grave?"

At this moment, as Hongjun recounted the story of the Beast Emperor Shenni, his expression was no longer calm, but instead extremely heavy.

Recalling the power of the Beast Emperor Shenni and his heaven-defying divine abilities, Hongjun couldn't help but sigh and said slowly, "My words are not without basis."

"Back then, I joined forces with other reincarnated demon gods and innate great powers from the primordial era to compete with the Beast Emperor Shenni!"

"His power is such that, among those of the same level, he can fight against a hundred men."

"The supernatural powers it possesses and the destructive power it controls can obliterate all laws, obliterate all primordial origins, and obliterate all the power of the Great Dao."

"Even the power of the three thousand Great Daos of the Jade Tablet of Creation could not shake it in the slightest."

"This means...oh!"

Hongjun sighed, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Shen Du's eyes narrowed, a barely perceptible shock showing in them.

Hongjun did not explain completely.

But the gods had already seen through one thing: this Beast Emperor, Shen Ni, possessed the power to destroy the entire primordial world.

Under the power of the Beast Emperor Shenni, it seemed as if all the laws of the Great Dao did not exist.

This is no less than the arrival of the Dharma-ending Age, when all the heavens are without virtue.

At this moment, Shen Du finally understood that Hongjun's composure, unchanged for countless years, was moved by the appearance of the Beast Emperor Shen Ni.

Houtu also realized the seriousness of the matter.

The three remained silent for a long time, none of them speaking to break the deadlock.

This is because even the gods do not know how to face the Beast King Shenni, the embodiment of the resentment of three thousand demon gods, who possesses the power to obliterate all laws and principles. Although he attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal of the Primordial Chaos with the laws of chaos, he also achieved the Limitless Golden Immortal of the Primordial Chaos with the laws of chaos.

However, this does not mean that it can resolve such an overpowered beast emperor's divine rebellion.

The laws of chaos are already defying the heavens; by fusing the power of the three thousand great laws, they can create the world and destroy all things.

But all of this is constructed under the laws of the Great Dao.

The power of the Beast Emperor Shenni is like the Great Dao itself, and also the world-destroying millstone that came when the immeasurable calamity descended, annihilating all living beings and all laws.

Hou Tu felt somewhat helpless. Everything was going according to plan, so why did the Beast Emperor Shen Ni suddenly appear, whose power was beyond her imagination?

What living being's power could obliterate the power of the Great Dao, obliterate the power of the Laws, or destroy the very origin of the primordial world?!
Hongjun, however, fell into deep thought.

Back then, it took the combined efforts of numerous reincarnated demon gods and primordial innate holy beings to annihilate the peerless demon king, Shen Ni.

Now, the former demonic colleagues are gone, and few of the innate saints remain.

Those at the same realm, such as the Primordial Golden Immortal or the Heavenly Saint, are extremely rare.

How can one possibly contend with the Beast King Shen Ni, a peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal?

It's unrealistic to think that all three of them would make a move.

After all, the Beast Emperor Shenni himself wanted to destroy the primordial world and return it to chaos.

If they were to make a move, the overwhelming aftershocks unleashed when the Beast Emperor Shenni confronts them would likely plunge the Primordial World into destruction once again.

Caught in a dilemma.

Shen Du slowly spoke, looking annoyed, "Fellow Daoist Hongjun, I have something I'd like to ask you."

Shen Du broke the silence, causing Hongjun to turn around and ask, "What is it?"

"I want to ask, when we shattered the primordial world, causing its destruction, the Great Dao descended and reshaped the primordial world."

"Then, if the Beast Emperor Shenni shattered the primordial world and returned it to chaos, will the Great Dao descend and intervene?"

These words made Houtu's eyes light up. Yes!

Last time, the primordial world was destroyed in their hands, and the Great Dao descended.

This time, the Beast Emperor Shenni destroyed the primordial world, and perhaps the Great Dao will also descend!
"will not."

"The Beast Emperor Shenni is the embodiment of the resentment of three thousand demon gods. His duty is to destroy the primordial world and reshape chaos!"

"Once the primordial world is destroyed by it, then it will be truly destroyed."

"The primordial world is destroyed, demons and gods emerge, and chaos begins!"

"..."

Hongjun's words silenced Shendu and Houtu.

What being, from the very beginning, bears the responsibility of destroying the primordial world?!
The Great Way doesn't care either.

"Then what?!"

"It doesn't matter if the primordial world is destroyed!"

"When the Chaos Gods revive and the Chaos Heaven and Earth reappear, what will happen to our lineages and power?"

"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, you are the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao, think of a way."

Shen Du rubbed his forehead.

The destruction of the primordial world had some impact on him, but it didn't matter.

With the destruction of the primordial world and the collapse of humanity, his cultivation level will drop to the peak of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm.

However, with this level of cultivation, surviving in the chaos would be a piece of cake.

However, outside the Purple Cloud Palace lies a vast chaos, an environment where heaven and earth are one color, time has no concept, and everything remains unchanged. Anyone would break down in such an environment.

Otherwise, why would Pangu have created the world?!

It wasn't that he was tired of seeing chaos all the time, a world of uniform color and rampant killing, so he created a colorful world, which is Pangu's way and his philosophy.

"This"

Hongjun's pupils widened in hesitation. How could he possibly know how to deal with the Beast Emperor Shenni?!

It was only by uniting countless races and powerful beings from the primordial world that they were able to barely suppress the Beast Emperor, Shenni.

Now, there are fewer people, so there's nothing to say.

Unless we can relive the past, there is no such thing as time flowing backward.

Finally, after a moment of deep thought, Hongjun slowly said in a deep voice, "We can seal it away, so that it will never be able to set foot in the far north again."

"This is the best way."

“I will use the Heavenly Dao Seal, and my two fellow Daoists will use the Human Dao Seal and the Earth Dao Seal respectively. With the blessing of these three supreme treasures, we can completely seal it in the far north, so that it cannot step out.”

"However, this consumption may be a bit high."

Upon uttering these words, Houtu boldly exclaimed, "How much energy does it consume?!"

"We three are Primordial Golden Immortals, how much magical power would it take to suppress a beast king, Shenni, who is at the peak of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm?!"

Shen Du also spoke slowly, "Our magical power is like the vast and boundless ocean, with no bottom in sight. How can it be described as 'huge consumption'?"

Hongjun shook his head, his voice indifferent, "Since you two fellow Daoists do not object, then we will use the seal to completely suppress the Beast Emperor Shenni in the far north, forbidding him from leaving!"

"However, I must warn you two first about this consumption. It will consume at least 80% of the three of us's mana, and it will probably take several hundred eons to recover."

"Unless one has the power of primordial merit to aid them, the recovery time might be faster; otherwise, they can only recuperate for several hundred eons."

"Two Daoist priests."

"..."

"What?!" Houtu exclaimed, interrupting Hongjun's words.

She suddenly stood up, glared at Hongjun, and said, word by word, "How much magic power?!"

Hongjun said calmly, "Eighty percent."

At that moment, Houtu felt it was outrageous.

Sealing a beast king like Shen Ni requires so much magical power?!
Shen Du seemed to understand Hongjun's meaning, and his eyes became indifferent. "Does Fellow Daoist Hongjun mean that we should use eighty percent of our magical power to suppress the Beast Emperor Shenni for all eternity?"

"There is no need to worry about it breaking the seal and descending upon the primordial world."

Upon hearing this, Hongjun said, "Good, it seems that Fellow Daoist Shen Du understands my meaning."

"The Divine Reversal can obliterate all laws and principles, so it can naturally obliterate our magical power seals."

"The purpose of consuming so much magic power is to eliminate any worries about the future."

"However, if the Journey to the West continues successfully, it will be able to dispel the resentment of the three thousand demon gods. At that time, the strength of the Beast King Shenni will naturally decrease."

"That will be the time to slay the Beast Emperor Shenni."

"In this way, we can also retrieve the magic power on the seal."

As he said this, Shendu nodded leisurely, "Very well, if that's the case, then we'll proceed according to Fellow Daoist Hongjun's method."

After thinking it over, Houtu also felt that this was the most appropriate method, and agreed.

Since they disagreed, it seems there's nothing else that can be done.

Fighting against the Beast King God is impossible.

Let us avoid its sharp edge for now; its demise will come after the journey to the West.
