Primordial Era: Reborn as a Qi Immortal, Steadily Cultivating

Chapter 21 Merits of Heavenly Marriage
The confrontation between the two emperors did not affect the continuation of the Heavenly Wedding Ceremony.

As Emperor Jun displayed his magnanimous and all-encompassing imperial demeanor, he treated the Eastern King Duke as an honored guest.

The atmosphere of the entire banquet became even more lively and subtle.

The numerous powerful figures present sensed an impending storm from this brief exchange.

The auspicious time has arrived.

A melodious bell rang out, resounding throughout the heavens.

It was Donghuang Taiyi who personally struck the Chaos Bell, using the sound of this innate treasure to kick off his elder brother's wedding.

As the bell tolled, the entire Heavenly Court fell silent.

Everyone's gaze turned to the other end of the sky.

The direction of the cold and lonely Taiyin star.

At this moment, the endless starlight seemed to be drawn by some force, transforming into a dazzling Milky Way that stretched from the distant Moon Star all the way to the palace in the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Above the Milky Way, two stunningly beautiful figures, surrounded by a group of fairies, stepped on the moonlight and moved slowly with graceful lotus steps.

The woman on the left is dressed in a magnificent golden palace gown, with a gentle and dignified face and an elegant and noble demeanor.

It was like the brightest moon in the night sky, so bright that one dared not look directly at it.

It was Xihe, the ruler of the Taiyin star.

The woman on the right wore a cool, silver-white dress. Her beauty was unparalleled, and her temperament was as cold as ice, like the ancient ice in the Moon Palace, keeping people at a distance.

It was Xihe's younger sister, Changxi.

Two Yin Star Lords.

One is gentle and graceful, the other is aloof and cold.

Each possessed unparalleled talent and unique strengths.

The moment they appeared in everyone's sight, even those powerful figures who were used to seeing stunning beauties and whose Dao hearts were as firm as mountains couldn't help but have a look of amazement in their eyes.

"What a diva! What an unparalleled beauty!"

"In the future, the harem of this demon race's heavenly court will truly be the most beautiful in the primordial world."

Whispers and exclamations arose during the gathering.

Ma Yuan sat in the corner, watching the two figures from afar, secretly admiring them.

These Xihe and Changxi are indeed divine beings born from the moon, their demeanor and bearing far surpassing that of ordinary people.

No wonder that the proud and arrogant Demon Emperor Di Jun was willing to offer the entire Heavenly Court as a dowry to marry her.

Emperor Jun, who was sitting high on the imperial throne, also stood up at this moment.

His face was filled with majesty and domineering presence.

For once, a gentle smile appeared on his face.

He took a single step and was already outside the palace, ready to personally greet his bride.

“Fellow Daoist Xihe, Fellow Daoist Changxi, from this day forward, you and I, husband and wife, shall be one, jointly govern the Yin and Yang of Heaven and Earth, and share supreme honor.”

Di Jun's voice is full of magnetism and sincerity.

The two sisters, Xihe and Changxi, bowed gracefully to Dijun.

Although they didn't speak, their slightly flushed cheeks revealed their current state of mind.

"The auspicious time has arrived! The newlyweds shall pay homage to the heavens!"

As the master of ceremonies' resounding voice rang out, Di Jun, Xi He, and Chang Xi stood side by side, turned to face the vast Heavenly Dao, and respectfully performed the ritual of three bows and nine kowtows.

We bow to Heaven and Earth, expressing our gratitude for Pangu's virtue in creating the world and for the nurturing grace of the primordial world.

We bow twice to the Dao Ancestor, expressing our gratitude for Hongjun's teachings and guidance.

These three bows, however, are performed by husband and wife to each other, establishing an eternal vow of marital bliss.

Just as the three of them completed their ceremony!

"Boom--!"

The entire primordial world suddenly trembled!
High above, the wind and clouds changed color, and a thick, pillar-like golden light of merit gradually gathered!

This light of merit is so vast and boundless.

Heaven has a way of responding!

The sun and moon unite, yin and yang flow together.

This is a great meritorious act of restoring order to the universe and perfecting the primordial order!
"Merit! It's Heavenly Merit!" "Such magnificent golden light of merit! The demon race is truly about to prosper!"

At the banquet, all the great beings, including the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti, suddenly stood up, their eyes burning with astonishment and envy as they gazed at the golden light of merit descending from the sky.

The Eastern King Duke is located next to the Three Pure Ones.

Upon seeing this, his originally aloof and warm face subtly changed, transforming into an incredulous and cold expression.

Why? !

He gripped the dragon-headed cane tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and his body trembled slightly!

He, the Eastern King Duke, was the first manifestation of pure yang energy in the universe! The Western Queen Mother was also the manifestation of primordial yin energy!

In terms of origin and foundation.

His union with the Queen Mother of the West is the true orthodox union of Yin and Yang!

Back then, he also became a Daoist couple with the Queen Mother of the West on Zifu Continent, witnessed by all the immortals.

They wished to emulate the merging of Yin and Yang to restore order to the primordial world.

But the result?

Heaven showed no reaction whatsoever!
Not only did no golden light of merit appear, but not even the slightest unusual phenomenon descended!
And today, Emperor Jun merely married two Taiyin Star Lords, yet Heaven bestowed upon him such boundless merit?!
This is truly an injustice of Heaven!

The incredibly thick golden light of merit split in two in the air.

The largest portion, about 70%, transformed into three slightly smaller beams of light that directly entered the bodies of Di Jun, Xi He, and Chang Xi.

In an instant, the auras of the three people began to surge wildly!
Di Jun was already at the peak of the early stage of Quasi-Saint.

Driven by this immense merit, his cultivation bottleneck was instantly broken through, and his aura surged, directly stabilizing at the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint!
And Xihe and Changxi.

With the help of this merit, he successfully stepped into the Quasi-Saint realm, which countless cultivators dream of!
The remaining three-tenths of the merit, like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, transformed into a vast golden rain of light, falling gently upon the entire Thirty-Three Heavens!

All the demons present, whether heavenly soldiers and generals or goddesses and goddesses, felt their cultivation bottlenecks loosen and their cultivation greatly improved as they were bathed in this golden rain of merit!

At this moment, the fortune of the entire demon race surged dramatically!

A golden dragon, visible to the naked eye and formed from boundless fortune, circled and roared above the Heavenly Court.

Its overwhelming power astonished all the powerful beings present.

Emperor Jun hovered in the air, feeling the surging power within his body and the rising fortune of the demon race. He roared to the sky, his voice filled with boundless pride and domineering spirit!
"Today, the heavenly marriage is complete, and Heaven bears witness!"

"I, Di Jun, the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan, hereby formally declare!"

"The Heavenly Court of the Demon Race is hereby established!"

"I shall be the rightful ruler of Heaven and Earth, governing all races, controlling the stars and constellations, and overseeing all living beings in the primordial world! Wherever the sun and moon shine, wherever rivers flow, all shall be the territory of my Heavenly Court!"

Dominate the world!

At this moment, with the blessing of boundless merit and vast fortune, Di Jun truly displayed his supreme demeanor as the overlord of the primordial world!
In a distant corner, Ma Yuan witnessed this miraculous scene firsthand, and the shock he felt was beyond words.

He finally experienced firsthand just how important the word "momentum" is in this world!

By following the will of Heaven, one can gain the upper hand.

Those who gain great power can obtain boundless merit.

Those who accumulate boundless merit can rise to high positions and ascend to the heavens in one step!
Di Jun's heavenly marriage was more valuable than an ordinary cultivator's hundreds of millions of years of arduous cultivation!
This is the terrifying aspect of following the natural order!
"The Demon Clan's Heavenly Court has become a force to be reckoned with, and no one can stop it now."

Ma Yuan slowly sat down, picked up his wine cup, took a sip of the divine brew, but his mind was already filled with countless thoughts.

His gaze unconsciously drifted to the Eastern King, who was sitting next to the Three Pure Ones, his face now ashen.

Ma Yuan shook his head inwardly.

"Dong Wang Gong, you are in grave danger!"

Previously, the Celestial Court and the Demon Court could be considered to be evenly matched, each with its own advantages.

But now the demon race's Heavenly Court has obtained the merit of the Heavenly Marriage, making it legitimate and bringing them immense fortune.

In terms of both strength and prestige, it has already far surpassed the Purple Mansion Immortal Court.

With Di Jun's extraordinary talent and domineering personality, how could he tolerate the existence of a Celestial Court that dared to challenge his authority right next to his bed?

The outcome of the Ma Yuan trade was almost predictable.

After this grand celestial wedding ceremony concludes and the demon race's heavenly court has absorbed all the boundless merit,

The next step is to assemble a massive army and, with overwhelming force, flatten the East Sea and completely erase the so-called Purple Mansion Immortal Court from the primordial world!

This battle for supremacy among the immortals seems to be nearing its true climax soon.
