I stole divine power in Daxia

Chapter 675 Phoenix Ancestor's Reconciliation
Before Zhou Tieyi could even speak after hearing Fengzu's request, the old fisherman Canglong, holding a bamboo pole, hurriedly shouted from the courtyard outside, "Zhu Feng, the situation is at its most critical. If you destroy your own defenses, you will surely regret it for ten thousand years. If the peacock misses the opportunity to seize the Dao Fruit today, he will also turn against you and your mother in the future!"

Inside the Two Realms Village, everything returns to normalcy. Even though these deities can influence the outside world through their superior nature, they are still just like ordinary people here. Their only advantage is that if they are killed here, they will be reincarnated here again and again.

Fengzu smiled wryly. Of course, she wouldn't listen to Canglong. Her grudge against Canglong was actually much greater than her grudge against Zhou Tieyi. The current situation was that Canglong wanted her to place a bet on Peacock escaping before Zhou Kun.

But on what grounds!
The peacock is naturally gifted, but Zhou Kun is the reincarnation of the Earth Mother, born from the three elements of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

At the same time, although unwilling to admit it, in all fairness, Zhou Tieyi, the Yanhuang God, is stronger than himself, the Phoenix Ancestor. There is clearly a possibility of taking a step back, so why would the Phoenix Ancestor be willing to risk his life for someone else?

Even if Peacock obtains the Dao Fruit, he cannot immediately become a saint. He still has to go through the complete Dao Damage stage, and he will definitely be targeted by Zhou Tieyi's backup plan to help others withstand all the pressure.

However, even without attaining the Dao Fruit, as long as one obtains the Vermilion Bird position in the Heavenly Palace, the Peacock's path to sainthood remains unbroken.

Phoenix Ancestor had calculated this perfectly. It only harmed the interests of the Heavenly Emperor. However, the Heavenly Emperor was not currently in the Two Realms Village, which was both his advantage and his disadvantage.

“If he hates me for ten thousand years, then so be it. To us, ten thousand years is nothing more than the seasons of a mortal. After ten thousand years, he will naturally stop hating me, just like how he hated the Buddha back then. Go ask him if he still hates the Buddha now. In the face of the Great Way, even the deepest hatred will dissipate.”

Fengzu turned to look at Zhou Tieyi, "I know you have a backup plan, but it's more worthwhile to use it on the Heavenly Emperor than on the Peacock. Besides, you don't want to take all four positions, do you? Just like you said, you won't take what isn't yours, and no one can take what is yours."

Zhou Tieyi laughed heartily, "You seem to understand life better than that old dragon!"

Although the positions of the Four Symbols and the Five Emperors are important, Zhou Tieyi was going to grant them out anyway. He had no great enmity with Fengzu, and their powers even had a connection, so he naturally wouldn't push an ally who had come to him to the enemy's side.

Zhou Tieyi and Fengzu reached an agreement that their powers would no longer entangle within the Two Realms Village. Outside the Two Realms Village, amidst the rising phoenix fire, a stream of flame carrying the Holy Fire of Humanity pierced through the barrier of time and space, like a shooting star, directly knocking Kongque and Zhou Kun, who were at a critical moment, off the Bridge of the Holy Path and falling into the Vermilion Bird Palace.

Although the Heavenly Palace has tens of thousands of palaces, the most important ones are still the ten palaces: one main hall, two palaces, three enclosures, and four symbols.

Whoever controls the core of these ten palaces will naturally control the Great Dao of the Heavenly Palace. At this moment, what humans and gods are fighting for is the dominance of these ten palaces, in order to accumulate advantages for the war between humans and gods later.

The sudden meteor struck Peacock and Zhou Kun into the Vermilion Bird Palace. Their terrifying power nearly filled the entire palace, turning it into an ocean of human fire and phoenix fire, while also preventing outsiders from entering.

Feng Zu and Zhou Tieyi have made their move!
The second and first ranks naturally knew the origin of this meteor. Only Phoenix Ancestor and Zhou Tieyi could simultaneously knock down Peacock and Zhou Kun, who had already ascended the Bridge of the Holy Path, because they were the origins of Peacock and Zhou Kun, and they could directly influence Peacock and Zhou Kun's power.

"Fengzu is so foolish!"

"With such a favorable situation right in front of him, why would he make peace with the Yanhuang?"

"With just one step away, the peacock will be able to seize the Dao Fruit of Creation, and the Earth Mother will awaken. How could the Phoenix Ancestor be so unwise!"

The other gods were naturally disappointed and frustrated! The expressions of the human first-rank gods also changed slightly. Although they did not necessarily want the Earth Mother's will to be revived from Zhou Kun, if they could force Zhou Tieyi to reveal more of his trump cards, or even force him to give more benefits to the people in order to save his daughter, they would be more willing to do so.

But they are all great gods who have lived for tens of thousands of years, how could Fengzu possibly act like a fool?

He did not tell the divine way everything about Zhou Tieyi back then, so naturally He can make peace with Zhou Tieyi today.

The matter was settled. No matter what the people below thought, the Vermilion Bird Palace was shrouded in endless flames, with the flames of humanity and the flames of the phoenix rising, eliminating any hope that other sects could interfere.

On the Bridge of Imaginary Numbers, Gongshu Ting and the others were the first to realize that without the peacock's obstruction, they could naturally continue forward.

At this point, others couldn't help but intervene.

Suddenly, a giant tortoise-snake appeared, completely dominating the north. Its body was imbued with the essence of Yin and Yang, exuding a strong sense of Tao. It was both a deity and a Taoist master.

"I am Xuanwu, the humble Daoist, the lord of the North, and now I take charge of the Xuanwu Palace of the Four Symbols!"

Xuanwu, as the second sage of Yuanmeng, and who has always been on good terms with the Taoists, had not interfered in the recent struggle, waiting for this opportunity.

Since Phoenix Ancestor has already made peace with Zhou Tieyi, Xuanwu believes that the division of power in the Heavenly Palace is a foregone conclusion. His occupation of Xuanwu Palace will naturally be of great benefit to his path to sainthood. Although it is not as good as the Taiji Yin-Yang Bracelet, that peerless divine weapon is now in Zhou Yulong's hands and has lived for ten thousand years. Although Xuanwu is not as good as Phoenix Ancestor, he can still recognize the situation.

Xuanwu occupies the Xuanwu Palace, one of the Four Symbols. He is already a quasi-sage and has the advantage of geographical location. He is on good terms with both the human race and the divine path. At this time, naturally no one wants to cause trouble.

The enormous tortoise-snake slowly descended into the Xuanwu Palace, suppressing the changes in the Four Auxiliary Forces and nearly paralyzing half of them.

Just after Xuanwu successfully took over and the defenses of the Four Auxiliaries were further weakened, a split also occurred within the Divine Path. They realized that it was more practical to seek benefits for themselves than for others.

As for the other two auxiliary halls, there are naturally corresponding people who are appointed to them.

A terrifying tiger's roar came from the Netherworld. Heavenly Khan Tengri rode a ferocious tiger, wielding the Heavenly Tribulation Axe, and headed straight for the Heavenly Palace. His aura grew rapidly. While the world's attention was focused on the struggle for the Heavenly Palace, Mo Jian, the Netherworld Equal King Buddha, also completed his own annihilation. With the help of Tengri, he at least shattered the chaos in the Netherworld Buddhist Kingdom where money could be used to communicate with ghosts and gods.

The white tiger beneath Tengri roared, "The White Tiger Palace is mine!"

He flew down into the palace and transformed into a headless god clad in white tiger armor, wielding an axe, slashing at all the gods around him who wanted to enter the White Tiger Palace.

Xing Sha was a hero who helped Tengri recover back then, and today Tengri will naturally help Xing Sha seize the White Tiger Palace.
