Primordial Era: Taking the blame to become a saint, proving one's path through eccentricity!

Chapter 426 [Using Another's Strength to Fight Back, Luring the Enemy into a Trap]

After the great calamity of ferocious beasts, the divine path declined, the immortal path rose, and the demonic path grew stronger, with two different ideologies constantly clashing in the primordial true world.

But now, all three races have suffered heavy losses. If Hongjun and others do not step forward, the power of chaos will overwhelm the power of order, the demonic path will suppress the immortal path, and a new trend will emerge.

Given the nature of the demonic path, if it were to dominate the overall trend of the Primordial True World, it would inevitably cause the Primordial True World to face an immeasurable calamity ahead of schedule.

This is a struggle between the path of immortality and the path of demons, and also a contest between the power of order and the power of chaos.

At Hongjun's call, many powerful immortals gathered at Yujing Mountain, and Zulong, Yuanfeng, Shiqilin and others also participated in the alliance.

However, due to the entanglement of karma on their bodies and the difficulty in healing their Dao injuries, they were unable to unleash the strength of a late-stage Hunyuan Golden Immortal in a short period of time.

However, without the assistance of the three races' armies, many powerful immortal cultivators would have to face Xuan Yin's numerous demonic cultivators alone.

Hongjun looked at the three of them and slowly said, "Behind the war between the three races, although Rahu and his demons were secretly stirring things up, in the final analysis, it was still a struggle for the Great Dao among the three of you!"

"In this way, the Immortal Path is weakened and order is lost. Would the three of you be willing to lend me a hand and help the Primordial Heavenly Dao complete its crucial transformation?"

Just like now, the world is in chaos, order is lost, the immortal faction is in a weak position, and the power of the Heavenly Dao is also beginning to decline.

"Of course!"

Zulong readily agreed: "My dragon race is now burdened with grave sins. I, the Emperor, am willing to forgo the Water Element Dao Fruit, which I have cultivated for hundreds of eons, to aid Hong..."

Fellow Daoist Jun, let us further perfect the Heavenly Dao!

"I only beg for Heaven's mercy, that after annihilating the demon race, my dragon race may have a chance to survive!"

Yuan Feng also spoke up, saying, "I am also willing to give up the Fire Yuan Dao Fruit, only asking that the Heavenly Dao use the Purifying Divine Fire to burn away the evil in the world, restore peace to the primordial world, and avenge my Phoenix Clan!"

Seeing this, the First Qilin did not hesitate and directly stated, "This Emperor is also willing to lend a helping hand to Fellow Daoist Hongjun and the Immortal Dao camp! This Earthly Origin Dao Fruit will be offered to the Heavenly Dao!"

"Furthermore, I am willing to transform myself into an auspicious celestial omen to further perfect the Heavenly Dao, only asking that the Heavenly Dao forgive the sins of my Qilin clan!"

After deciding to switch to cultivating immortality, Yang Mei Daxian abandoned the Qingdi Dao Fruit, which had long since merged into the Heavenly Dao and become a part of it, serving as a symbol of the primordial order.

But at that moment, Lingbaojun suddenly spoke up: "Everyone, that one on Mount Sumeru is indeed a demon among demons, a great enemy of our immortal path, but the Eastern Demonic Sect should not be underestimated either!"

"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; the snipe and the clam fight, while the fisherman reaps the benefit. Fellow Daoists, let us not forget the lessons of the Three Races War!"

His meaning was clear: if the goal was to take action against the demonic path and let the immortal path dominate the prehistoric world, then the Eastern demonic sect could not be left unattended!

The Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans were the most powerful in the primordial world, so why were they utterly defeated by the demonic path?

It was all because the war between the three races damaged their foundations, causing countless Great Luo Golden Immortals and Quasi-Saints to perish in the war!

If the three races are of one mind, and with powerful beings like the Ancestral Dragon, the Primordial Phoenix, the First Qilin, the Yinglong, the Zhulong, the Xuanniao, and the Lingguang in charge, how could the power of the demonic path alone shake the great trend of the prehistoric world?

But now, if these powerful immortals rashly start a war with the demons of Mount Sumeru, wouldn't that be giving the Eastern Demonic Sect an advantage?

What if they suddenly intervene while the immortal faction is fighting the Demon Ancestor of Mount Sumeru, causing both the immortal and demon factions to suffer heavy losses?

Lingbaojun's gaze swept over the crowd, and he continued, "The Eastern Demonic Sect must be guarded against. I suggest that before dealing with the Sumeru Mountain Demon Clan, we concentrate our forces to wipe out the Eastern Demonic Sect!"

Upon hearing this, many powerful immortals echoed his sentiments, hoping that Daoist Hongjun would take action and, before dealing with the Demon Ancestor of Mount Sumeru, lead the immortal forces to eliminate the hidden danger of the Eastern Demonic Sect.

However, the expressions of Shenbaojun and Tianbaojun became extremely ugly!

Do you think they don't know about the situation of the Eastern Demonic Sect, even if others don't?

Wasn't it their true selves who orchestrated this to divide the demonic path's fortune and prevent Xuan Yin from inheriting the Rahu Dao Fruit?

They never expected that before the war between Dao and Demon, Xuan Yin would use someone else to do his dirty work, preparing to use Dao Ancestor Hongjun to eliminate the Eastern Demon Sect!

Although it was Lingbao Jun who spoke, everyone who knew Lingbao Jun knew that he would never do such a despicable thing!

Using the power of immortality to deal with the Eastern Demonic Sect must have been Xuan Yin's idea; Ling Bao Jun was merely helping him articulate this idea!

But given their current status, they cannot step forward to stop it!

Otherwise, if the two of them opened their mouths, some people who were on good terms with Xuan Yin might accuse them of colluding with the demonic path.

Once you're labeled as colluding with the demonic path, it's hard to shake off the accusation!

This is a calculated, open strategy!

Even though Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun were shrewd and calculating, they did not expect that Xuan Yin would use the power of the immortal path to deal with the Eastern Demonic Sect!

Everything has a price!

Upon seeing this, Shenbaojun immediately transmitted his voice to Tianbaojun, saying, "Second brother, you should have considered the possibility of being devoured by the demonic energy when you had your avatar divide the fate of the Eastern Demonic Sect!"

"Right now, let's try to preserve some of the essence of the Eastern Demonic Sect!"

"Otherwise, how could you take advantage of the war between the Dao and the Demons to seek the origin of the Demonic Path and evolve the dark side of the Primordial Heavenly Dao before Xuan Yin?"

With many powerful immortals expressing their opinions, it has become a consensus to eliminate the threat of the Eastern Demonic Sect before taking action against the Demon Clan of Mount Sumeru. The two of them could only support this decision.

Thus, the mighty army of immortals marched towards Kunlun Mountain. Although the Eastern Demonic Sect was strong, it could not withstand the core power of the immortals.

Countless demons perished, and the entire Eastern Demonic Sect was wiped out by immortal divine powers.

The only regrettable thing is that Wushangdao, the master of the Eastern Demonic Sect, had already fled before the immortal army arrived at the Kunlun Ancestral Vein!

However, the destruction of the Eastern Demonic Sect greatly boosted the morale of the Immortal Path.

After resting, Hongjun, Yin Yang, and other core forces of the immortal path did not hesitate and went straight to Mount Sumeru.

Upon witnessing this scene, Xuan Yin couldn't help but laugh, "Second Senior Uncle, having your avatar escape beforehand might leave a trace of vitality for the Eastern Demonic Sect, but fleeing without a fight is hardly the way of a demonic cultivator. After today, how much vitality will your Eastern Demonic Sect have left?"

transport?"

With the collapse of the Eastern Demonic Sect and the return of fortune, the fortune of the demonic path represented by Xuan Yin has reached 90% of the overall fortune of the demonic path!

At this moment, his cultivation level is constantly improving, and he has reached the half-step Hunyuan realm, seemingly ready to cross that threshold at any time.

His true form, upon attaining enlightenment, was a sage of the earthly path through the methods of immortality, and then attained the Great Dao of Returning to Nothingness through the fruition of a sage of the earthly path.

Now, what he needs to do is to prove himself as a Heavenly Saint using the methods of the demonic path, and then, as a Heavenly Saint, prove the Great Dao of Origin.

"bring it on!"

Looking at the vast army of immortals, Xuan Yin showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he directly summoned the Four Swords of Zhuxian and the Zhuxian Formation Diagram, laughing loudly, "No destruction, no construction; destruction precedes construction! You, Yuanshi Tianzun, can destroy and then build, embarking on the path to enlightenment. Do you think I would lose to you? Since that's the case—then I'll borrow your hands to help me take another step forward!"

Before the words were finished, four sword gates appeared on the western land, towering into the clouds. There was also endless sword energy that evolved into a multiverse. The four swords fell like four pillars of heaven, stirring up the universe and suppressing all things in time and space. All the ways of heaven and earth returned to the end!

"Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, activate!"

Xuan Yin roared, and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation unleashed boundless ferocity, slaying immortals and killing gods, causing even the gods and immortals of the heavens to tremble in fear.

But this is not the end!

Outside the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, myriad demons gathered, enacting the One, Two Elements, and Three Powers—until encompassing all phenomena of heaven and earth, reaching the pinnacle of the formation!

"The Ten Thousand Demons Formation, activate!"

Tens of thousands of demonic cultivators gathered their power together through the formation and then used the formation to bless Xuan Yin.

An aura no less powerful than that of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal instantly swept across the surroundings, causing the Grand Luo and Quasi-Saints of the immortal path to show expressions of despair.

"How are we supposed to fight like this?"

With the blessing of the Ten Thousand Demons Formation, Xuan Yin was even more terrifying than Shen Ni before. His vast aura filled the sky, boundless and limitless, as if he wanted to trample all the Dao under his feet.

In the void, a Demon Pool appeared, from which endless primordial demonic energy flowed.

Countless demons of the Six Desires Heaven and the Great Freedom Heaven used their supernatural powers to exploit the fear of the immortals, attempting to make them willingly fall into the demonic path.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of the immortals, Xuan Yin nodded in satisfaction: "Fellow Daoists, if you wish to stop me from unifying the prehistoric world, then enter my grand formation and let me see your strength!"

At this moment, Xuan Yin had the Heavenly Demon Tower above his head, stood on the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, and held the fierce and evil treasure, the God-Slaying Spear, in his hand. The demonic energy around him resonated faintly with the Four Swords of Zhuxian, and the power of the demonic path continued to grow with the aura of the myriad demons behind him.

In this era, no matter who it is, they will all come to the conclusion that they are invincible!

"That's not necessarily true!"

Just then, Hongjun made his move, and a mysterious and profound power of the Heavenly Dao forcibly balanced the demonic forces behind Xuan Yin.

"Let the world be governed equally!"

"This is the true intention of Heaven!"

Above his head, auspicious clouds of heaven emitted multicolored light, and the primordial world appeared and disappeared, with the Jade Disc of Creation demonstrating the principles of the birth and death of the Great Dao.

"The Great Path of Balance!"

Seeing this scene, Xuan Yin's lips twitched involuntarily. In later generations, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had bestowed the power of balance upon the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, enabling him to remain invincible in the primordial world.

Unexpectedly, this power was also the capital that Dao Ancestor Hongjun used to resist Rahu.

With the support of ten thousand demons behind him, the phantoms of ten thousand immortals appeared behind him, and the power of order evolved from the power of the Heavenly Dao instantly materialized, forming a mysterious domain.

Under the influence of this domain, Xuan Yin's aura, which had been forcibly elevated to the level of a Primordial Grand Luo Golden Immortal by the Myriad Demons Array, suddenly choked and then rapidly declined, leaving him only at the half-step Primordial Grand Luo level.

Under the Way of Heaven, power is balanced, and all things are balanced. The law is equal, without high or low. You can raise your strength to a level comparable to your opponent, or you can use the power of balance to bring your opponent's strength to the same level as yours.

The power of the Ten Thousand Demons Formation is too vast. If one forcibly increases their strength, the power unleashed would be enough to destroy the entire West.

Therefore, in order to avoid getting involved in karma, Hongjun chose to use the Great Dao of Balance to force Xuan Yin to be on the same level as himself.

"Gentlemen, let's enter the battle!"

Seeing that Xuan Yin's aura had dropped from the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal, Hongjun no longer hesitated and directly led everyone into the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.

The Yin-Yang Taoist's Tai Chi diagram unfolded, transforming into the foundation of existence and fixing time and space, making it impossible for ordinary End Sword Qi to get close to him.

With a thought, countless spaces appeared around Yang Mei, and the power of space swept in all directions like a tide. As soon as the sword energy of the End approached, it was completely devoured by the power of space.

The Ancestor of Qiankun had the Qiankun Cauldron above his head, with streams of innate power descending from it, and the profound mysteries of the Great Dao of Qiankun forcefully deflecting all attacks.

When the Dao Ancestor Hongjun unfurled the auspicious clouds of the heavens, five-colored rays of light illuminated the heavens, and celestial music of eight tones resounded throughout the universe. Furthermore, the sun, moon, stars, and the primordial world appeared, and countless golden lamps, golden lotuses, necklaces, and hanging beads fell from the auspicious clouds, like water dripping from the eaves, endlessly and continuously.

Seeing this, Xuan Yin's expression did not change. According to the general trend of Heaven, the Zhuxian Sword Formation was destined to be broken.

He refined and improved the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation precisely to hold off as many people as possible.

To prove the origin of the demonic path, his true opponents are actually those few Heavenly Saints!

Seeing that Hongjun and the others had entered the Zhuxian Sword Formation, Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun and others in this time and space could no longer sit still!

Shenbaojun and Tianbaojun made the first move, but were blocked by Lingbaojun alone.

Upon seeing this, Tianbao Jun immediately retorted angrily, "Tongtian, do you think you alone can stop the avatars of me and my elder brother?"

Upon hearing this, Lord Lingbao immediately laughed and said, "That didn't work before, but it might not be now!"

Before he finished speaking, two top-grade innate spiritual treasures appeared in the auspicious clouds above Lingbaojun's head, along with the power of the innate Bagua, which, together with countless runes, transformed into the innate Bagua formation.

"The River Chart and the Luo River Writing!"

Upon seeing this, Tianbao Jun's expression changed drastically. The Primordial Eight Trigrams Formation was a highly ranked formation in the Primordial True Realm; if...

With Lingbao Jun setting up the formation, he and Shenbao Jun really had no way to break it without a supreme innate treasure.

Shenbaojun had even more to think about. Since the Hetu and Luoshu were in Lingbaojun's hands, where was the innate treasure, the Chaos Bell?

He didn't think that Xuan Yin would let Chaos Bell go after borrowing the Hetu and Luoshu!

The incarnations of the Guide Daoist and the Zhunti Daoist were also greatly alarmed upon seeing this, and quickly distanced themselves from Mr. Jian Gu and the others.

This time, they directly used all the alternate identities in this timeline.

"The show is about to begin!"

Although he didn't see the Supreme Dao, the dozen or so saintly incarnations before him were enough to make him set up the Innate Five Elements Grand Array!

Taking advantage of the war between the three races, he had quietly obtained the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag and the Li Di Flame Flag from Zu Long and Ling Guang!

Boom!

Xuan Yin slapped his forehead, and five demon kings emerged from the auspicious clouds above his head, each possessing the strength of a late-stage Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

The Yellow Heaven Demon King, holding the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner, stood in the center, displaying ten thousand golden lotuses that were indestructible, causing all evil to retreat and all laws to be invulnerable.

The Azure Demon King, holding a blue lotus banner, stood in the east, radiating the light of relics, calming the mind, repelling all evil, and making all laws invulnerable.

The Crimson Demon King, holding a banner of blazing light that rises from the ground, stands in the south, causing chaos in Yin and Yang, reversing the Five Elements, making all evil retreat and impervious to all laws.

By day, the Demon King stands in the west, holding a plain-colored cloud banner, manifesting wondrous phenomena that illuminate heaven and earth, deter all evil, and impervious to all laws.

The Black Demon King, holding the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag, stood in the north, creating a hazy universe, obscuring the sky and sun, causing all evil to retreat and all laws to be impervious.

【The Five Emperors' Great Demonic Powers】

Xuan Yin was able to learn this supernatural power thanks to the blessing of Yuanshi Tianzun.

Back then, if it weren't for Yuanshi Tianzun's scheme to make him fall into the Demon Realm, he really wouldn't have had the chance to meet Hun Tian Mozhu, who possessed this supernatural power.

He secretly learned this supernatural power while discussing the Dao with the Demon Lord of Hun Tian, ​​and it complemented the Five Elements Flags of the Primordial Chaos perfectly.

The five flags encompassed heaven and earth, obscuring the universe and trapping the western land and the incarnations of Yuanshi and others within a single realm.

【Innate Five Elements Grand Array】

Xuan Yin remained inactive, waiting for Yuanshi Tianzun and others to make their move, all in order to lure them into a trap!

If we don't kill a few incarnations of saints, wouldn't it be a waste of such a grand display?
