Simulating the primordial era? That's way too extreme.

Chapter 39 Karma

"Isn't this a trap?"

When Zhao Si saw that Di Jun had truly abdicated, he was momentarily stunned. Had he wronged the Heavenly Emperor?

Is Dijun some kind of benevolent person who repays evil with kindness? I betrayed him like this, and he still wants to abdicate instead of imprisoning Jin Bing. He really... I'm devastated...

"Something's not right! Something's definitely not right!"

Zhao Si frowned and reviewed the entire simulation again, looking at it from a macro perspective:

Di Jun's fundamental purpose in slaughtering humans was to use the power of the demon race to destroy the human race, the destined protagonist among demons. Therefore, theoretically, all his actions should revolve around this central point.

When he abdicated in favor of Jin Bing, his father, the king, analyzed that the Heavenly Emperor's purpose had two layers: one was to use Jin Bing as a puppet, and the other was to take the blame for the massacre. After all, whether in public or private matters, Heaven would place the main responsibility on the then Heavenly Emperor, and Di Jun could use him as a scapegoat.

While Di Jun was out killing Hong Yun, seizing the Purple Qi, and becoming a saint, Jin Bing, having realized his mistake, betrayed him several times:

One is that the three ancient tribes and the witch tribe sided with the human race, attempting to rival the top echelons of the Heavenly Court.

One reason is that, in Di Jun's eagerness to distance himself from the massacre, he actually tricked his ten beloved sons into standing against their father, trying to persuade the demons to surrender on the demon battlefield and undermining their morale. They were greatly involved in the demon war and it would be difficult for them to distance themselves from it again.

In Zhao Si's vision, with this top-tier configuration that is no less than that of the demon race's Heavenly Court, it is not impossible for the human race to make a comeback against the demon race in the future. At that time, the simulation results will definitely be highly rated!

But unexpectedly, due to a butterfly effect caused by some unknown factor, Di Jun actually became a saint...

Under the absolute power of the Sage, all of Zhao Si's fancy schemes collapsed on the spot. The old codgers of the three ancient races were forced to kneel and cut off on the spot. Although the Twelve Ancestral Witches were confident that they could defeat Di Jun, who was at the peak of the Quasi-Sage level, they were also forced to kneel under the Sage's overwhelming power.

The moment the Holy Emperor was born, he dominated the entire prehistoric world, and completely turned the scheming Jin Bing into a ridiculous clown...

But just when the dust had settled and everyone was desperately awaiting the final judgment, Dijun unexpectedly acted with great magnanimity. Not only did he not pursue their heinous acts of betraying him, but he also cheerfully and genuinely abdicated in favor of Jinbing.

This is puzzling. Could it be that Emperor Jun's attainment of sainthood has damaged his brain?

"No!"

Zhao Si, who had a comprehensive view of the situation, opened his eyes and looked seriously at the texts describing Jin Bing's ascension to the throne and the congratulations of the people and officials:

"There are people from the three ancient races, people from the human race, people from the witch race, but no people from the demon race! The demon race not only does not recognize his imperial throne, but also officially raises an army to rebel against Heaven, vowing to overthrow the false emperor and restore the great power..."

Similarly, there is no description of Kunpeng, Taiyi, the Ten Great Demon Saints, or even the former Heavenly Court officials such as the Star Lords paying homage to the new emperor.

What does this tell us?

This shows that Di Jun cut off all his old subordinates and took them with him. The current Heavenly Court is just a makeshift organization built by Jin Bing's supporters!

Without those Heavenly Court Grand Luo Immortals and Quasi-Saints, could this Heavenly Court still be called the Heavenly Court?

Obviously not.

"This Heavenly Court is nominally legitimate, but in reality it is a false dynasty and cannot possibly hold its position."

If you don't believe me, just look! As soon as the Golden Emperor ascended the throne, the whole world rebelled, and all the forces of the non-human race came to attack the false emperor!

This was clearly a deliberate scheme devised by Di Jun to completely incite a decisive battle between demons and humans. In the past, the mutual slaughter between demons and humans was limited to a small scale and could only be considered as a fight between civilian forces.

But after the Golden Emperor ascended the throne, the intensity of the fighting escalated to the point of war...

However, if a major war breaks out, the human race will definitely be no match for the unified demon race, and the final outcome can only be the complete annihilation of the pseudo-heavenly court!

"Therefore, Di Jun's murderous intent has not changed at all!"

In reality, Di Jun has zero tolerance for any backstabbing from Jin Bing's camp. For the sake of his holy position and his life, he will not personally carry out the massacre, but that does not mean he will let go of all the opposition.

Humanity must be exterminated!

The witch clan must also be wiped out!

The three ancient races must all be wiped out!

You think you can just slide and cut and run away?

Having experienced three betrayals, Di Jun scoffed, "Everyone must die!"

"How will the story unfold from here?"

[At the beginning of the Primordial Era, the Golden Emperor ascended the throne at Shouyang Mountain, bestowing the title of Empress upon Xuanming and Heavenly Master upon his elder brother Erbaiwu. Others, including humans, shamans, dragons, phoenixes, and qilin, received their respective titles and rewards, and a general amnesty was declared.]

[As fate would have it, all the demon states of the Western Wilderness rebelled, forming an alliance against Heaven under the pretext of "purging the emperor's inner circle"!]

The Golden Emperor dispatched the great shaman Hou Yi with his shamanic army to suppress the Western Wilderness, but the effort failed.

[As fate would have it, all the demon states of the Northern Wilderness rebelled, forming an alliance against Heaven under the pretext of "restoring the great power," demanding that the false emperor abdicate in favor of the late emperor's sons!]

The Golden Emperor dispatched the Black Dragon King of the North Sea with naval forces to suppress it, but they were unsuccessful.

[As fate would have it, all the demon states of the Southern Wilderness rebelled, forming an alliance under the pretext of "upholding the mandate of Heaven to quell the rebellion," demanding that the Golden Emperor abdicate!]

The Golden Emperor dispatched the winged tribes of the southern volcanoes to suppress them, but to no avail.

[It is fate that the Central Plains will all rebel...]

War is raging across the land, and the states are in chaos. As the Heavenly Emperor, you are unable to suppress the rebellions, and the political situation is deteriorating. Almost every day, news of rebellions, large and small, is reported to the court.

[In less than a year since your ascension to the throne, the territory under the Heavenly Court's control has shrunk by more than 70%. Apart from the Four Seas and the human race's stronghold in the Eastern Wilderness, all other regions are paralyzed. Watching the increasingly dire situation, you are extremely anxious, but apart from futile suppression, there is nothing you can do.]

Micromanagement? Forget it. Leave the professional stuff to the professionals. You don't think you have the skills.

Seeing your constant frown, Empress Xuanming comforted you and suggested that she and her brother personally suppress all the rebels. After all, the rebels were at most Taiyi or Daluo, and Quasi-Saints could be easily slaughtered!

[But you rejected her wonderful suggestion because you knew that it would be better if the Quasi-Saint didn't participate; once he did, the rebels might just dig up a wild Saintly treasure from some remote, impoverished place...]

Now you finally understand why Di Jun abdicated in your favor. It's because he wanted to forcibly continue the massacre plan that you unilaterally broke, and with his invincible saintly status, he would watch with a smile as you were forced to lead humanity step by step toward destruction according to the original plan...

No, not just humans, but also the witch race and the three ancient races. Although ordinary demons might not be able to kill a quasi-saint, wiping them out of power would be no problem at all.

This is an openly calculated scheme with no solution.

Not long after, ten little golden crows came to you dejectedly: "Big Brother, we can't play together anymore."

[You know perfectly well that it was Dijun who called them back. Your ingenious plan to bring ten golden crows onto the chariot is nothing but a joke in front of Dijun, who has already become a saint...]

"Kids, I have no objection."

You reluctantly bid farewell to the ten little golden crows. Although you brought them along out of scheming, after spending several lifetimes together, you had developed a deep affection for these ten adorable little creatures. Before parting, they even gave you a gift.

[Ding! A gift from an important figure in the primordial era has been detected. Bind your gift?]

Another gift?

Zhao Si did not hesitate:

"Bind!"

[This gift, now bound to an important figure from the primordial era, is titled: "True Sun Fire from the Ten Golden Crows!"]

【"True Fire of the Sun from the Ten Golden Crows": True fire produced by the Golden Crows, which are formed from the essence of the primordial sun. It can burn the heavens and boil the seas, and refine precious materials. It is a divine fire of ultimate yang and strength. At the beginning of the human calendar, it was given by the Ten Golden Crows to an unknown Dragon Emperor (already bound)】

The next moment, a ball of golden-white flame flew out of the phone screen and landed in Zhao Si's palm.

"Is the sun really fire?"

The curious Zhao Si could not feel any burning sensation, but he could clearly sense the violent power within the flame that could destroy everything!

For the safety of the rental house, Zhao Si didn't dare to test its power by burning things. After playing with it briefly, he threw it into his sea of ​​consciousness to keep company with the Sage's Dao Fruit and the Immortal-Slaying Sword, since he didn't need it now anyway.

Continue the game:

You realize you are being forced to lead everyone down a path destined for destruction, but you refuse to sit idly by and await your fate. In your desperation, you think of the sage disciples, including Guang Chengzi, who have already departed.

[Therefore, you made a special trip to Kunlun Mountain to reminisce with acquaintances such as Guang Chengzi and to request that they seek a way to ensure the survival of the human race.]

Given these guys' obsession with merit and the fact that the saints of the past specifically set up sanctuaries for humanity, you can imagine they wouldn't refuse such a good thing.

[But to your surprise, Guang Chengzi shook his head helplessly, indicating that times had changed, the extinction of the human race was inevitable, and there was no way to save them. Even a sage would not risk intervening to protect them.]

Seeing your confusion, Guang Chengzi sighed, then wiped his hand in front of your eyes...

Then he gestured for you to look up at the sky. You looked up in confusion, and the next moment, you saw ominous black mist swirling endlessly above your head. The black mist was as vast as an abyss, and it connected all of humanity, seemingly containing endless calamities...

"What is this?" you asked, bewildered.

Guang Chengzi sighed and looked at you with pity.

【"Karma!"】
