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

Nine Heavens.

When the Tongtian Sect Leader led his disciples to Jin'ao Island, the demon gods under his command also gave Di Jun a great surprise.

The demon saint Jiuying presented a fierce sword as if offering a treasure. The sword was not of high grade, but it had the aura of a great witch of the witch clan flowing on it.

"His Majesty!"

"This is a divine weapon accidentally forged by my subordinate, the Bashe Demon God. It is exceptionally ferocious; even a Great Witch's physical body is utterly vulnerable before it. Its core is the soul of a human!"

"If we could collect the essence, blood, and souls of humans on a large scale and forge a witch-slaying sword, we could definitely kill the twelve ancestral witches of the witch clan in one fell swoop."

Seeing Jiuying's excited appearance, Dijun couldn't help but sigh, and then turned his gaze to Fuxi and Donghuang Taiyi beside him.

A hint of shock flashed in Donghuang Taiyi's eyes.

The Witch-Slaying Sword!

Just as Xuan Yin described in his dream, when they were at a disadvantage, someone would bring them the method to forge the witch-slaying sword.

In the past, upon learning of the emergence of a divine weapon capable of subduing the witch race, he would naturally have believed that heaven was favoring their demon race, and would have ordered his demon gods to forge it at all costs.

Having witnessed the mutual destruction of the witch and demon races in twenty cycles of reincarnation, he felt that the witch-slaying sword before him was a death warrant.

"No!"

He feigned concern and shook his head, saying, "The human race was created by the sage Nuwa, and the sage Taiqing also established a lineage and passed down the teachings of humanity among them. The karmic consequences are too great to be taken lightly!"

"Let's think of another way!"

At this moment, he looked as if he had been overwhelmed by the blows from the Wu Clan, and looked up at the sky, saying, "The Wu Clan's Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation is too powerful. How could it be completely reversed by a single fierce weapon?"

"No matter how powerful this Slaughtering Sword is, can it possibly surpass Taiyi's Chaos Bell?"

Upon hearing this, Jiuying froze on the spot. He could detect a hint of melancholy and the weariness of a hero in Dijun's tone!

Could it be that two major defeats have caused His Majesty the Demon Emperor to lose his ambition?

How can this be good?

A thought flashed through Jiuying's mind: "We were ready to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first? Is this still the Di Jun I know?"

Bai Ze agreed, saying, "Offending two sages for a single weapon is indeed not worth it. Your Majesty's foresight is admirable! As for the Witch Clan matter, let's think of another way!"

"With the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array and the Hun Yuan He Luo Grand Array in place, and in conjunction with the decree of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the demon race has more than enough to protect itself!"

Fuxi shared the same opinion.

Donghuang Taiyi did not speak, but lowered his eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

So, the matter was put on hold!

……

But on Mount Sumeru, Daoist Zhunti's expression instantly changed: "Could these two battles have truly worn down Di Jun's fighting spirit?!"

Based on past experiences, once Emperor Jun learns the method for forging the Witch-Slaying Sword, he will definitely use the power of the demon race to forge it.

However, in this era, the general trend has deviated considerably. The Witch Clan is stronger than ever before, and the Demon Clan has gained no advantage whatsoever in the hands of the Witch Clan.

The Guide, seated atop the twelve-petaled golden lotus of merit, slowly spoke, "This is for the best; at least it will reduce the amount of killing we commit!"

Zhunti Daoist, however, was somewhat uneasy: "But if the demon race doesn't slaughter humans and forge the Sword of Slaughtering Witches, how will they perish together with the witch race in the future? How will the demon race's fortune flow to the human race? If the witch and demon races don't withdraw and continue to firmly control the fortune of heaven and earth, when will our West... ever have a day of great prosperity?"

Clearly, if everything only needed to follow the general trend of Heaven and the script they set, the sages could have continuously increased their own foundation. Why then did the general trend of Heaven deviate to such an extent?

Everything is preordained!

The Guide Daoist shook his head: "If it's not the will of Heaven, it's the will of the Great Dao. Some changes might not necessarily be a bad thing for the Primordial World!"

"Humans can cultivate Buddhism, so why can't the witches and demons comprehend it?"

In the past twenty reincarnations, they had converted many destined people from the Jie Sect, all of whom were disciples of the Jie Sect who were of demon race origin.

After being baptized by Buddhism, quite a few of the more than three thousand disciples of the Jie Sect attained Buddhahood.

Therefore, it is clear that seeing one's true nature is enlightenment!

As long as one has Buddha-nature in their heart, regardless of their race, there is a possibility of attaining Buddhahood.

Of course, this is just his idea.

Zhunti Daoren is a symbol of the wisdom of the Heavenly Way. He wholeheartedly emulates Yuanshi Tianzun and becomes the first cause and the first effect before the creation of heaven and earth.

He must participate in the grand scheme of Heaven's Way time and time again, and fabricate the cause and effect of Heaven's Way, so that his Dao fruit can be continuously perfected over endless years.

This is also where the two of them disagree.

This was also the root cause of the later debate between Mahayana and Hinayana Buddhism.

Although the Guide Daoist cultivates the Dao of Nirvana, his personality is more like that of Taiqing, and he is not affected by changes in events.

It's acceptable to leave it unchanged.

He can accept the change.

However, Daoist Zhunti ignored his advice and said firmly, "I refuse to believe that after Di Jun's sons perished at the hands of the Wu Clan, he can still run away like this?"

After saying that, he left Mount Sumeru directly.

Several days later, in Tang Valley, the restrictions set up by Di Jun were quietly broken, and the ten golden crows immediately became curious about the outside world.

Thus, led by the Great Golden Crow, the Ten Golden Crows all left Tang Valley.

In the Heavenly Court, Donghuang Taiyi quietly contacted Shangdi Jun and transmitted his voice, saying, "Brother, the restrictions you set up in Tang Valley have been broken! Bo Huang and the others have also been tainted by the calamity energy!"

As sons of Emperor Jun and Xihe, the Ten Golden Crows naturally have names. They are: First Golden Crow Bo Huang, Second Golden Crow Zhong Lang, Third Golden Crow Shu Kun, Fourth Golden Crow Ji Xing, Fifth Golden Crow Xian Rui, Sixth Golden Crow Lu Jun, Seventh Golden Crow Ya Qiong, Eighth Golden Crow De Shen, Ninth Golden Crow Ren Jing, and Tenth Golden Crow You Wen.

Bo Huang is the Great Golden Crow!

The future Lu Ya Daoist, the Great Sun Tathagata of Buddhism, is none other than Lu Jun, the Six Golden Crows!

Di Jun couldn't help but sigh, "The ten suns patrolling the heavens—even if they don't die, they'll be tainted by karma! That one in the West is truly cunning!"

Having taken precautions, the two of them naturally added an extra layer of protection for the Ten Golden Crows: the Chaos Bell aura left behind by Donghuang Taiyi.

That aura was imprinted on the primordial spirits of the Ten Golden Crows. As soon as they left Tang Valley, Donghuang Taiyi would immediately sense it.

However, remembering the agreement they had made with the Twelve Ancestral Witches and Xuan Yin's plan, neither of them interfered with the matter.

Only when Hou Yi shoots down the sun and the golden crow sheds blood will the Western sage feel at ease, believing that the great trend of Heaven has returned to his control.

Donghuang Taiyi looked at Dijun with unwavering determination: "Now that things have come to this, the two of us must find a way out for the demon race!"

Even if the Great Luo is destroyed and falls into the calamity of losing itself, it will eventually return. But many low-level demon races do not have that ability.

Dead is dead!

Even if Houtu were to reincarnate in the future and give all living beings a glimmer of hope, they would no longer be the same people they were after reincarnation!

"Yes! An escape route..."

Di Jun looked up at the sky, his gaze drifting further and further away. In the blink of an eye, he passed through the dark chaos and landed on Nuwa's Tai Su Heaven.

He wasn't pinning his hopes on Nuwa; he simply felt that the dragon race had its dragon realm, the demon race had its demon realm, and the monster race should also have its own world.

……

Jin'ao Island.

As a supreme blessed land hidden in the East China Sea, it is named for its resemblance to a golden turtle and has an inexplicable karmic connection with the Tongtian Sect Leader.

They had barely arrived in the East China Sea when the void began to churn and surge. Immediately afterward, Jin'ao Island materialized from countless folds of space.

The Tongtian Sect Leader threw Shangqing Peak and Shangqing Palace down, and the power from the sage transformed them into Zizhi Cliff and Biyou Palace respectively.

Daoist Duobao immediately laughed and said, "Purple is the ultimate color, and green is the essence of blue; from the extreme of purple comes blue! After our Jie Sect moves its Daoist temple here, it will surely become better and better! One day, it will become the number one sect in the primordial world!"

"Biyou? May you be blessed!"

Xuan Yin shook his head: "Perhaps, Master only hopes that his disciples are safe and sound, and that the lineage of the Jie Sect can be passed down!"

There are many immortal islands in the East Sea, but most of them originated from the Zifu Continent.

In the past, Dongwanggong established a celestial court in the East Sea in the name of the head of male immortals. Although he was later killed by Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi, and Zifuzhou was also shattered under the influence of the great war, some extremely powerful immortal fortune still remains here.

And this place, besides Xikunlun, is the place with the most independent cultivators in the Primordial True Realm.

Upon learning that the Tongtian Sect Leader had arrived in the East Sea, many independent cultivators wished to join the Jie Sect. Since the Tongtian Sect Leader adhered to the principle of teaching without discrimination, he naturally would not refuse the wishes of these independent cultivators. He publicly stated that he would preach again in 30,000 years and accept many disciples.

These 30,000 years were both to allow time for independent cultivators and to allow many disciples of the Jie Sect to establish their own cave dwellings in the East Sea.

Xuan Yin, on the other hand, did not have this problem.

Wherever the Tongtian Sect Leader is, that is his cave dwelling. Since Biyou Palace is on Zizhi Cliff, he directly opened up his cave dwelling below Zizhi Cliff.

Duobao and his companions followed suit and opened up a cave dwelling near Biyou Palace.

However, Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals, due to their responsibility of managing the outer disciples, had to place their cave dwellings in the vast East Sea.

However, the Tongtian Sect Leader did not treat them unfairly, and directly placed the section of the earth vein that Xuan Yin had dug in the place where the outer disciples of the Jie Sect lived.

Xuan Yin, Duo Bao, Jin Ling, Wu Dang, and several others also took the initiative to help the disciples sort out the spiritual veins and water veins in the East Sea.

On this day, Xuan Yin was sorting out the water veins when a Great Luo Dragon came to his door, representing Zhu Long, to invite him to the East Sea Dragon Palace for a chat!

"Zhulong?"

Xuan Yin was taken aback upon hearing this.

He knew that Zhulong was one of the top three powerful beings in the dragon race. With the ancestral dragon's transformation into a Daoist being completed and the Azure Dragon Mengzhang taking up residence in the easternmost region, Zhulong had now become the de facto leader of the dragon race.

"Wait a mininute!"

Xuan Yin did not refuse. After informing the Tongtian Sect Master, he followed the Great Luo Golden Immortal of the Dragon Clan and fled towards the location of the East Sea Dragon Palace.

Since the Jie Sect moved to the East Sea, it was inevitable that they would have to deal with the Dragon Clan.

There's no harm in seeing Zhulong!

Moreover, Xuan Yin knew that Zhulong of the Dragon Clan, like Zhujiuyin of the Witch Clan, cultivated the Great Dao of Time, which was the most difficult to master in the primordial world.

The three thousand Great Daos each have their own characteristics, but the Great Dao of Time runs through the entire process, from the beginning of chaos to the arrival of immeasurable calamities.

Those who master this great principle are generally the wisest of the wise, able to glimpse the secrets and causes of heaven that do not belong to the present time and space.

Such a person, who specifically sought out Xuan Yin by name, must not have been making baseless accusations.

Soon, Xuan Yin met Zhulong.

Within the Dragon Palace of the East Sea lies a hidden paradise. Guided by the Great Luo Dragon Clan member, he arrived directly at a sea eye beneath the Dragon Palace.

It is called the eye of the sea, but it is actually a world containing the corpses of countless dragons, including hundreds of those at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Zhulong stands at the center of the world, where the past, present, and future converge, and behind him is an enormous black dragon corpse.

"The First Emperor!"

In the Taidi Palace, Xuan Yin met Zu Long once. At that time, Zu Long was still full of vigor and was the Northern Black Emperor, second only to the Three Ancient Sovereigns.

But now, the Ancestral Dragon has transformed into a Daoist being. Its dragon might remains, but it has lost its former glory.

"Greetings, fellow Daoist!"

Zhulong spoke first, his eyes scrutinizing Xuan Yin: "Fellow Daoist Xuan Yin, you truly are the greatest variable in the Primordial True Realm!"

"You've managed to get your hands on that Qilin's Earthly Origin Dao Fruit, but unfortunately, you don't seem to have any intention of refining it!"

He then cut to the chase, saying, "I summoned you here because of my elder brother, who wishes to make a deal with Fellow Daoist Xuan Yin!"

"Big brother?"

Xuan Yin was startled.

In the Primordial Realm, the only one whom Zhulong could call his elder brother was the legendary Ancestral Dragon, the source of the bloodline of billions of dragons in the Primordial World.

At the same time, he was also somewhat looking forward to whether this creator of the dragon race, the Northern Black Emperor of the Divine Age, could bring him some surprises.
