Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border

Seeing this, Ying Zheng's expression became inscrutable: "A conflict between the Demon Ancestor Rahu and us is inevitable. If we allow him to destroy the Black Lotus Perfection, wouldn't that strengthen his power? This would be extremely disadvantageous for us. Besides, what harm is there in angering him? As long as we can disrupt his plans, it will be a good thing for us."

Then Ying Zheng issued several command feathers, inviting the Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, and Taiqing Daode Tianzun, whom he trusted.

As for Donghuang Taiyi, who had a deep friendship with Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng did not invite him because he needed to protect the demon emperor Jun.

Nuwa also issued a command feather, which headed towards the Taoist temple where Houtu was located.

After Houtu disappeared from the underworld, she established the Samsara Palace, which served as the core to connect the various heavens and the cycle of reincarnation.

Separating reincarnation from the underground passage into its own system caused considerable turmoil, but Houtu didn't care about any of that.

Houtu, in the Samsara Palace, received Nuwa's command feather. She opened it with a thoughtful expression, and Nuwa's solemn voice came from it: "Fellow Daoist Houtu, come quickly if you have something to discuss."

Seeing that Nuwa's expression was solemn, she said, "Nuwa's tone and attitude suggest that she has something important to discuss. Eldest brother, second brother, I will now entrust the affairs of the Samsara Palace to you."

Upon hearing this, Dijiang, the eldest of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and Zhujiuyin, the second eldest, patted their chests with unwavering confidence: "Little sister, go ahead without worry! We will take good care of the Samsara Palace."

After that, Tu's figure merged into the Great Dao of Reincarnation and headed towards the Great Hongmeng World.

Not only Houtu set off, but Taiqing Daode Tianzun, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, and Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, who received Ying Zheng's command feathers, also did so.

The four of them stepped into Ying Zheng's dojo at the same time, gazing at the pool of karmic fire and the Styx Ancestor before them, completely ignoring them.

Then, the Celestial Venerable Shangqing Lingbao asked solemnly, "Disciple, what has happened that has made you summon us so urgently? Could it be that those gentlemen have made another move?"

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng was extremely solemn: "That's right, Master, Senior Uncle, Second Senior Uncle, Fellow Daoist Houtu, you should have sensed the weakening of the demonic path just now, right?"

The Supreme Celestial Venerable of the Great Purity gazed at the pool of karmic fire and crimson lotus before him, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes: "You mean, he's trying to perfect the Black Lotus of Destruction?"

“That is certainly possible. Moreover, according to what Styx said earlier, Demon Ancestor Rahu should be cultivating the Karmic Fire Red Lotus at this moment, intending to make it a Chaos Spiritual Treasure. What we need to do now is to thwart Demon Ancestor Rahu’s plan.” Ying Zheng’s words were full of killing intent.

The Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable's face was filled with murderous intent. He stroked the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi and his eyes revealed an eagerness to try: "Then what are we waiting for? By using the power of cause and effect and taking advantage of this Karmic Fire Red Lotus Pool to trace the source, we should be able to find the hiding place of the Demon Ancestor Rahu. At that time, we will catch him off guard. If he wants to make the Black Lotus of Destruction perfect, he will have to ask us if we agree."

Ying Zheng was also delighted with his domineering second senior uncle: "Second senior uncle, that's exactly what I was thinking."

"Then I will take action, and you may assist me from the sidelines," said the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable with a resolute expression.

After speaking, the power of the Jade Purity Great Dao in the hands of the Jade Purity Primordial Heavenly Venerable twisted, condensing into a vast Jade Purity Immortal Light that almost enveloped the entire Hongmeng Great World.

Under the spread of this Jade Purity Immortal Light, countless beings in the Primordial World benefited, and even newborn infants evolved into immortal bodies, divine bodies, and royal bodies that were close to the Jade Purity Immortal Light.

Through this Jade Purity Immortal Light, the numerous Great Luo Heavenly Venerables and Primordial Dao Lords seemed to glimpse that vast existence.

That was an unsurpassed enlightened being, representing the cause of all heavens and the effect of all realms.

As the power of cause and effect emerged, the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable made hand seals, using the power of the Jade Pure Great Dao to create the Jade Pure Cause and Effect Divine Talisman.

Using the power of this talisman to continue the cause and effect, the power of cause and effect within the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Pool drifted out and was incorporated into the vast power of the divine talisman, which began to propagate into the distance.

Upon seeing this, Nuwa, Ying Zheng, Taiqing Daode Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, and Houtu all stepped forward to enhance their respective Dao powers, thereby supporting the causal tracing of the divine talisman.

That vast power radiates in all directions, investigating all causes and effects; nothing can escape the divine eye of the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

Sensing that immense power, the Styx Ancestor sat to the side, a look of envy appearing in his eyes.

At that moment, the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable vaguely saw a vast palace, within which appeared the pale-faced Demon Ancestor Rahu.

He was playing with the sixteenth-grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus in his hand. This was the root of cause and effect, slowly growing by absorbing the power of the vast Dao Origin.

Upon seeing this, the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable smiled with joy: "Found it!"

Then Ying Zheng and the others also connected to this scene, looking at the Demon Ancestor's Palace, just as they were about to make a move.

Demon Ancestor Rahu's expression changed slightly. He raised his head with a ferocious look, meeting Ying Zheng and the others' gaze: "I underestimated you. You actually used the Karmic Fire Red Lotus to trace cause and effect and come to my door. I haven't even caused you any trouble yet, and you dare to come looking for trouble. Do you really think I can't suppress you?"

Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, wielding the Qingping Sword, with the Four Zhuxian Swords behind him merging with the array diagram to transform into the Zhuxian Divine Sword, revealed an unstoppable aura and boundless fighting spirit: "Then let's give it a try!"

Upon hearing this, Demon Ancestor Rahu laughed instead of getting angry, his lips curling into a ferocious grin as he shouted, "Good, very good! I'd like to see what skills you learned from that old man Hongjun!"

Before the words were even finished, the God-Slaying Spear appeared in the palm of Demon Ancestor Rahu. This chaotic treasure, formed from the Great Dao of Slaughter, emerged, brimming with overwhelming killing intent.

As the spear's light flashed, demonic power was amplified upon it. Even the nearly perfect Destruction Dao from the thirty-five-petaled Black Lotus of Destruction beneath Demon Ancestor Rahu was inscribed with Dao runes, which were then attached to the tip of the God-Slaying Spear.

Immediately, Demon Ancestor Rahu ignored the distance and thrust out with his spear.

In an instant, the three forces of the Demonic Path, the Great Path of Destruction, and the Great Path of Slaughter merged into one, and the spear light it emitted pierced straight through the Heavenly Venerable of the Pure Spirit Treasure.

That vast spear light possessed the power to destroy the world, and all the heavens and myriad paths submitted before it, having the power to shatter all things.

In the instant the spear's light flashed, many Primordial Dao Lords sensed that fleeting glimpse of sharpness, and felt the overwhelming aura of demonic cultivation, slaughter, and destruction.

They plummeted from the clouds, drenched in sweat, their eyes pierced, their auras surging violently: "Who is that? Are Dao-enlightened beings clashing? What a terrifying shot!"

At the same time, the Zhuxian Sword and the Qingping Sword merged into one in an instant, and with the power of the swordsmanship enhanced by the Great Dao of Shangqing, they unleashed an incomparably fierce strike: "Demon Slayer!"

The moment the sword energy clashed with the spear light, Demon Ancestor Rahu roared with a ferocious laugh: "You're still far from mastering the fusion of two Great Daos! Break!"

In an instant, the sword energy, powerful enough to cleave through ten thousand paths, was shattered by the light of the God-Slaying Spear.

"Oh!"

Faced with such terrifying power, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun showed no fear.

He focused all his energy on activating the Shangqing Dao and the Sword Dao, even drawing upon the power of the Array Dao to transform the sword energy into a trapping array, intending to seal off the spear's edge.

However, the sword energy array collapsed at the first touch of the spear light, and it was powerless against the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

Seeing this, Taiqing Daode Tianzun gently patted Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun's shoulder and sighed, "Third brother, we are all one, why must we fight alone? Second brother!"

The Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable solemnly replied, "I understand."

Immediately, the power of the Jade Purity Avenue and the Supreme Purity Avenue emerged, and the four Chaos Treasures—the Pangu Banner, the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, the Taiji Diagram, and the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda—simultaneously suppressed the God-Slaying Spear.

The Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda cascaded down with a heavy Xuanhuang aura, a single wisp of which could crush eternity, instantly making the God-Slaying Spear's momentum heavy. The Taiji Diagram evolved the Yin-Yang Great Dao, combining to generate the true meaning of Taiji, unfolding the Taiji Domain to incorporate the God-Slaying Spear, using the Yin-Yang Great Dao to cleanse all things.

As the Pangu Banner swayed, it scattered streams of chaotic sword energy, slashing at the God-Slaying Spear, intending to obliterate the demonic and destructive power that empowered it.

The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi gathered three-colored divine light and attacked directly at the Demon Ancestor Rahu's true form.

However, when the divine light of the Jade Purity Three Treasures struck the Demon Ancestor Palace, countless demonic divine patterns engraved on the palace surged, condensing into a vast demonic true meaning, and confronted the Jade Ruyi of the Three Treasures.

The Demon Ancestor Rahu inside the Demon Ancestor Palace remained seated on the Thirty-Five-Petaled Black Lotus of Destruction, having yet to make a move.

The sixteenth-grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus in his hand was unstable, hovering between a supreme innate treasure and a chaotic spiritual treasure, but its speed of devouring the origin of the Great Dao was becoming increasingly rapid, and it was clear that it could be upgraded to a chaotic spiritual treasure at any time.

Then, Demon Ancestor Rahu turned his hand and revealed a twenty-four-petaled dreamlike golden lotus. This golden lotus was tinged with a dark light, clearly indicating that it had been completely sealed, otherwise Amitabha Buddha would have already come looking for it.

At this moment, Demon Ancestor Rahu grinned and threw out the Twenty-Fourth Grade Dream Golden Lotus: "I originally intended to keep it to devour along with everything else, but now I'll let you devour it first, so that you can increase your strength a bit!"

The Thirty-Five-Rank Destruction Black Lotus unleashed several beams of dark light, piercing into the Twenty-Four-Rank Dreamy Golden Lotus and beginning to extract its vast essence.

The innermost petals of the black lotus seem to be solidifying, and its aura has already subtly reached perfection.

At the same time, Ying Zheng, Nuwa, and Houtu exchanged a glance, knowing that the time to act had come: "Luo Hou, stop your arrogance!"

Ying Zheng's Dao-Breaking Spear appeared in his hand, its shaft condensing the power of the Primordial Dao. A figure in purple robes emerged, and several lotus flower imprints were engraved on the spear tip.

"Breaking the path!"

In an instant, Ying Zheng threw out the Dao-Breaking Spear, its power piercing through all paths and penetrating the Demon Ancestor's Palace.

Although this chaotic spiritual treasure, empowered by demonic forces, exudes a trace of the aura of a supreme chaotic treasure, it is still comparable to the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi.
However, Ying Zheng's Chaos Treasure, the Dao-Breaking Spear, is the nemesis of such special Chaos Spiritual Treasures.

With the power of the demonic path broken, how could this treasure be a match for the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi?

He was immediately blasted away, and even some of the chaotic origin of the Demon Ancestor's Palace was obliterated.

At the same time, the Breaking Dao Spear relentlessly pierced through the Demon Ancestor's Palace, heading straight for the Demon Ancestor Rahu inside.

Taking advantage of the destruction of the Demon Ancestor's Palace, Houtu and Nuwa jointly made their move. Houtu used the Six Paths Reincarnation Mirror to enhance the Great Dao of Reincarnation, creating endless cycles of reincarnation that enveloped the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

Nuwa held the Map of Mountains and Rivers—a supreme treasure of chaos that embodies the essence of the Heavenly Way, the Earthly Way, and the Human Way—and transformed it into a magnificent landscape, swallowing the Demon Ancestor's Palace within it.

The endless threads of the red embroidered ball wrapped around the Broken Path Spear and appeared before the Demon Ancestor Rahu, intending to bind him.

However, a black lotus quietly bloomed, and the thirty-fifth-grade Destruction Black Lotus, with its greatly increased power, directly protected the Demon Ancestor Rahu, preventing the Breaking Dao Spear and the Red Embroidered Ball Silk Thread from getting close.

"boom!"

At this moment, the sixteenth-grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus in the hands of Demon Ancestor Rahu was completely purified and advanced to the seventeenth grade, and rapidly devoured the Chaos Origin to grow, reaching the twenty-second grade in an instant.

But the power of the Great Dao's origin had been completely exhausted. Seeing this, the Demon Ancestor Rahu laughed wildly: "Since you want to devour me, then you can have me!"

He reached out and extracted the essence of the Demon Ancestor Palace's top-tier Chaos Treasure, merging it into the Twenty-Second Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus.

The Demon Ancestor's Palace, having lost its primordial chaos, let out a mournful cry, and its condensed spirituality suddenly dissipated.

The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi trembled slightly, and the vast Jade Purity Three-Colored Divine Light instantly shattered the Demon Ancestor Palace, causing this top-tier Chaos Spiritual Treasure to vanish into thin air.

Witnessing the Demon Ancestor's Palace dissipate, Demon Ancestor Rahu showed no regret: "It is an honor for it to have contributed to the destruction of the Black Lotus Perfection!"

As this chaotic origin merged in, the 22nd grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus completely evolved into the 24th grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus, with the remaining origin continuing to enhance its quality.

Upon realizing this, the Demon Ancestor Rahu laughed wildly: "The time has come! Destruction Black Lotus, devour it and help you achieve complete perfection!"

The thirty-fifth-grade black lotus of destruction, which had already devoured the twenty-fourth-grade golden lotus of merit, suddenly shone with a great black light, enveloping the twenty-fourth-grade red lotus of karmic fire.

The black and red light shone brightly, reflecting off the faces of Ying Zheng and others.

Ying Zheng's expression changed drastically, his eyes revealing deep apprehension: "This is bad! We absolutely cannot allow the Black Lotus of Destruction to reach its full potential! Otherwise, unless we possess power surpassing the Primordial Chaos, we will never be able to budge it even an inch!"

As the divine light of destruction surged, the three Heavenly Venerable Taiqing, Heavenly Venerable Yuqing, and Heavenly Venerable Shangqing Lingbao, who were fighting against the God-Slaying Spear, were also shocked.

Taiqing Daode Tianzun sighed helplessly: "This is the only way... I'm sorry to have to trouble you, pagoda."

As the words fell, the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda, which was draped with a thick, mysterious yellow aura, trembled slightly, as if in response to the Supreme Pure Moral Heavenly Venerable.

The Supreme Celestial Venerable of the Great Purity and Morality moved with his thoughts and gestures, which were reflected within the pagoda.

In an instant, the exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda shook, and the vast Xuanhuang energy gathered like a tide, piling up into a lake.

Seeing this, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, who was doing his best to maintain the Zhuxian Sword and Qingping Sword, said urgently, "Elder brother! This action will cause the Tiandi Linglong Xuanhuang Pagoda to fall from the Chaos Supreme Treasure rank!"

The Supreme Lord of the Dao did not stop his movements, a resolute look flashing in his eyes: "If sacrificing a Chaos Treasure can prevent the Black Lotus from reaching its full potential, I think this trade is worthwhile."

The Supreme Pure Lingbao Heavenly Venerable and the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable understood his meaning: "Very well! We will lend our elder brother a hand!"

Immediately, the four Chaos Treasures—the Jade Ruyi, the Pangu Banner, the Qingping Sword, and the Zhuxian Sword—fully suppressed the God-Slaying Spear, which sensed the danger and attempted to escape.

At the same time, a lake of primordial energy gradually took shape, and its immense power suppressed the God-Slaying Spear at the bottom of the lake.

Within the Yin-Yang Taiji diagram's evolutionary domain, the God-Slaying Spear was heavily enveloped, forming a second layer of seal to prevent it from breaking free from the suppression of Xuanhuang Lake.

At this moment, the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda has completely merged into Xuanhuang Lake, sparing no effort to consume its own essence to suppress the God-Slaying Spear.

Upon realizing this, Demon Ancestor Rahu fixed his sinister gaze on Taiqing Daode Tianzun: "You're quite willing to sacrifice it! How much effort did you put into this Chaos Treasure, and you're actually willing to destroy it just to temporarily suppress the God-Slaying Spear? But you can't stop me!"

Nuwa and Houtu exchanged a glance, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mirror and the Map of Mountains and Rivers suddenly erupted.

The world evolved from the Mountain and River Map and the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mirror gradually merged with the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

As the underworld manifested within the Mountain and River Map, it replenished the earthly power within, causing the Mountain and River Map's power to surge.

Nuwa said solemnly, "Whether I can stop you or not, we'll find out soon enough!" (End of Chapter)
