Chapter 130 The Celestial Court is Established, and the Six Heavenly Emperors Vow to Kill the Eastern King Duke (3)
"Fellow Daoist, do not hesitate any longer. You and I are kindred spirits in the Dao of Formations. In the past, when we were ridding the primordial world of evil, didn't Fellow Daoist Tongtian allow us to comprehend your Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation?"
"Besides—" Taiyi looked at Tongtian in front of him and saw that he was still hesitating, so he advised him.
"The Three Pure Ones all possess the merit of creating the heavens, and are beings of great merit, untouched by countless calamities. The Witch Clan is vicious, and the Styx River is even more so—"
Even with the Zhou Tian Star Array, the battle would be extremely dangerous, extremely dangerous—" At this point, Taiyi seemed to have thought of something and said with lingering sorrow, "If we perish, there should be a great master who can pass on this Zhou Tian Star Array."
Taiyi genuinely liked Tongtian, who was straightforward and cared deeply for all living beings.
"Alas, teacher, how could you have passed on such unparalleled supernatural powers and magical abilities to the demon Styx?" Tongtian was not as reserved as Taiyi. Taiyi had already said all that, and if he didn't comply, it would be somewhat disappointing.
The tide has turned; the future of the primordial world will belong to the Heavenly Court and the Witch Clan.
The Wu Clan is stronger and has the unfathomable Styx River behind them, but the Heavenly Court has six future saints. It can be said that the saints are the future of the primordial world.
This also led many powerful beings who had not participated in this great calamity to choose to join the fray.
The most typical example is Zhen Yuanzi, who, at this moment, has brought his close friend Hongyun to the outside of the Thirty-Three Heavens.
In the original primordial world, Zhen Yuanzi had always been in seclusion, cultivating in seclusion. During the great calamity of the Lich King and the Demon King, he stayed at the Wuzhuang Temple on Wanshou Mountain, worshipping heaven and earth and quietly reciting the Yellow Court Classic. He remained untainted by the calamity's energy and also protected many humans who were being hunted down by the demon race, accumulating a great deal of merit and fortune.
Ultimately, he entered the game during the Journey to the West Tribulation. Sun Wukong knocked down his ginseng fruit tree, but Buddhism intervened and healed his "treasure tree." He and Sun Wukong, the disciple of Bodhi Patriarch who was transformed from the stone that mended the sky, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven of the Heavenly Court, the future Victorious Fighting Buddha, the deputy Heavenly level of the Heavenly Court, and the Buddha level of the Buddhist sect, swore an oath of brotherhood and became "brothers."
Given his supernatural abilities, one could say he was tricked, or given the prestige of Buddhism, one could say he actively sought to align himself with Buddhism.
But all of this shows that Zhen Yuanzi was by no means someone who only knew how to cultivate in seclusion and dared not enter the game; he simply had a "clear and insightful" view of the general trend of the prehistoric world.
Of course, no one can guarantee whether entering the game will bring stable and long-term benefits. Just like Zhen Yuanzi entered the Buddhist sect when the Journey to the West was in motion, but who can guarantee that the Buddhist sect's prosperity during the Journey to the West was eternal?
However, Zhen Yuanzi must leave the mountain.
Not only did he want to come out of seclusion, but his good friend Hongyun also couldn't miss this "opportunity".
Zhen Yuanzi knew very well that among the three thousand guests of Zixiao, the gap in their identities, status, and cultivation levels could be extremely large. Not to mention the few who would become saints in the future, just look at them and Styx now.
So what if the Styx forcibly took away his title as the ancestor of earth immortals?
The hatred of those who obstruct the path is irreconcilable. What's more, the Styx River didn't just obstruct the path; it took away his opportunity to attain enlightenment in order to achieve its own success. This event had a tremendous impact on him, even greater than Zhen Yuanzi himself had imagined.
The blessings bestowed by the title "Ancestor of Earthly Immortals" would not only fall upon Zhen Yuanzi himself, but also upon his Earth Book, Ginseng Fruit Tree, and even his Daoist temple, Wanshou Mountain Wuzhuang Temple. Of course, all of this has now vanished thanks to Styx's methods.
Given Styx's current status and cultivation level, he wouldn't even dare to attack Styx; he simply couldn't.
A speck of dust from the era, falling upon Zhen Yuanzi, became an immovable and unbearable Mount Buzhou. The path of the Earth Immortal was merely a pawn in the game between the Styx River and the Three Pure Ones, yet it was enough to destroy most of Zhen Yuanzi's path.
Therefore, if Zhen Yuanzi wants to get involved, he needs to find a powerful enough backer who can determine the future of the prehistoric world.
For this powerful ally, Randeng chose the River Styx, while Zhen Yuanzi chose the Heavenly Court.
Without God's perspective, the secrets of heaven are hard to predict. The secrets of heaven with the Dao Ancestor's attainment of the Dao are even harder to predict. No one knows that the Heavenly Court and the Witch Clan will inevitably perish together in the future. In fact, the Witch Clan has not even exposed the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation to the primordial world.
What Zhen Yuanzi saw was that the Three Pure Ones, who were on par with the Twelve Ancestral Witches, had entered the Heavenly Court. So what if the Ancestral Witches established the Four Seasons and Heavenly Tribulations? There are now seven Quasi-Saints in the Heavenly Court, and three innate treasures and spiritual treasures of the same level. Even the Pangu Banner that was taken back by the Dao Ancestor, the Dao Ancestor did not say that he would not bestow it, and it will eventually return to the hands of Fellow Daoist Yuanshi.
When that time comes, who will be able to stand against the Heavenly Court?
Once the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa have all become saints, and the four saints work together, there will be nothing that cannot be accomplished in heaven and on earth. At that time, the Heavenly Court will be in power. Yes, that's right. The Heavenly Court is facing some difficulties now, but so what?
Are these difficulties a big deal for the four future sages?
If they weren't destined to become saints, why did the Dao Ancestor take them as disciples?
Zhen Yuanzi even thought that the Three Pure Ones would become saints before Styx. In Zhen Yuanzi's view, who did not know that Styx had the Chaos Pearl, Styx had gained so much merit and fortune, but he had not become a saint.
To put it bluntly, he and Hongyun are just two Quasi-Saints of the First Corpse. In the Primordial World, a Quasi-Saint of the First Corpse is a powerful figure, but in front of the Heavenly Court, a Quasi-Saint of the First Corpse is not worth mentioning at all. If they do not align themselves with the Heavenly Court now when it is in trouble, are they going to wait until the Heavenly Court sweeps everything aside and the Four Saints rule the world before they go?
At that time, were there still places left for them in Heaven?
If we go then, it will be too late for anything.
Unless the saints are all fools, how stupid must they be to allow him and Hongyun, as newcomers, to be ranked above a group of elders who fought alongside them against the brutal witch clan?
Zhen Yuanzi himself dared not even think about such a thing. Even if he achieved a higher level of cultivation through hard work, they would certainly not be able to obtain a position they truly desired due to the need to win people's hearts.
He and Hongyun, two quasi-saints, were no match for the hearts of the people in Heaven.
The sages are not fools; they only hope that the Heavenly Court will get better and better. So, if they wait until the Heavenly Court has pacified everything before going to pledge allegiance to it, then who knows how many people will be able to oppress them.
"Hongyun, have you remembered everything I said before?" Zhen Yuanzi looked at Hongyun and asked again with concern.
"I've got it." Hongyun looked at Zhen Yuanzi and shook her head helplessly.
Zhen Yuanzi had already explained the pros and cons, so Hongyun naturally had no choice but to come here with his old friend. However, deep down, he didn't want to join any faction. Wouldn't it be better to just live a carefree life like this?
