Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Now that we know the role of the Demon Realm, the next step is to use it as the core of the array to construct an unparalleled array to absorb all the resentment in the world.

In this way, the Demon Realm becomes an important part of the cycle of heaven and earth, and even if a saint dies, the Demon Realm cannot be harmed.

Meanwhile, because all the resentment in the world has been absorbed by the Demon Realm, the Chaos Demon God can no longer create ferocious beasts using resentment. As a result, there will be fewer and fewer ferocious beasts in the world, and the Chaos Demon God will be weakened to some extent.

It should be noted that the existence of ferocious beasts also facilitates the resurrection of the Chaos God.

The ferocious beasts' purpose in ravaging the world was not merely to destroy the primordial world. What even the Chaos Gods could not accomplish, the ferocious beasts certainly could not possibly achieve.

Therefore, the main purpose of the existence of ferocious beasts is to provide enough power for the resurrection of the Chaos God.

Whenever ferocious beasts wreak havoc on the world, they generate a massive amount of destructive power, and this power is what is needed to resurrect the Chaos God.

The Chaos God remains alive even after death, thanks to this very power.

Since the beginning of time, although ferocious beasts have been killed incessantly, apart from the ferocious beast chaos that broke out in the early days of creation, which could threaten the safety of the prehistoric world, they have mostly been insignificant and have had limited damage to the prehistoric world.

Therefore, the resurrection power provided by the ferocious beasts to the Chaos Demon Gods was limited and insufficient to truly revive them. It could only revive a portion of their will, resulting in their current state of being dead but not stiff.

Even if the resurrection power provided by the ferocious beasts is limited, it's better than nothing. If this continues, it's not impossible to gather enough power to resurrect the Chaos God.

Therefore, when it's time to weaken the ferocious beasts, one must not hesitate. And the fact that the demon realm absorbs resentment undoubtedly plays a role in weakening the beasts.

"The great prosperity of the primordial world depends on me!"

Ao Bing, increasingly aware of the importance of the Demon Realm, began to look forward to his future gains. He already had a lot of luck, and now he could add to it.

It remains to be seen whether this stroke of luck will help him create the supreme array he desires.

It's highly unlikely!

After thinking for a while, Ao Bing had an answer in his mind. The formation he was trying to deduce was too high-level; it was a half-step eternal level formation on par with the Heavenly Dao.

If Heaven were to fully bless him, he might still have a chance to create a supreme formation of this level.

But it's obvious that this is impossible. Heaven wouldn't fully bless him, because he couldn't possibly monopolize all the fortune of the primordial world.

To gain the full support of the Heavenly Dao, one must monopolize all the fortune of the primordial world.

But do they really think all the other powerful beings in the primordial world are dead? They're already incredibly envious and can't stand Ao Bing monopolizing so much fortune.

In this situation, Ao Bing still dares to monopolize all the luck and leave no way out for others. Isn't this forcing them to fight Ao Bing to the death?
Therefore, Ao Bing's path to acquiring fortune in the prehistoric world has basically come to an end.

If one wants to gain more fortune, one must find a way to increase its source, that is, to strengthen the primordial world and make it generate more fortune.

Otherwise, if he were to try to seize the existing fortune of the primordial world, he would inevitably force those powerful beings to join forces and fight him to the death.

Open source is indeed a solution. Since we can't get the Heavenly Dao to fully support us, we might as well find a way to raise the Heavenly Dao's ceiling.

As long as the upper limit of the Heavenly Dao increases, even without fully empowering oneself, the effect will be better than before when fully empowering oneself.

How can we raise the upper limit of the Heavenly Dao to generate more fortune?

Ao Bing is doing just that. He created the Demon Race, increased the importance of the Demon Realm, and while plundering the fortune of the Demon Path and the Ferocious Beasts, he also plundered the fortune of the Chaos Demon God.

The fortune of demonic paths and the fortune of ferocious beasts are both original fortunes of the primordial world; plundering them does not constitute opening up new sources of fortune.

However, the fortune belonging to the Chaos Gods is irrelevant to the Primordial World. Plundering their fortune, no matter how much is taken, is a gain for the Primordial World; it is a real source of income that can improve the overall fortune of heaven and earth.

With the opening of the Demon Realm, the fortune of the demonic path surged. The demon race was born, taking over the old demonic path, and the fortune of the demonic path naturally gathered upon them.

Since Ao Bing is the creator of the Demon Clan, he must share in the Demon Clan's fortune.

This is what is known as plundering the fate of the demonic path.

The two Western Saints established the Demon Realm for this very purpose. However, their method was not to create demons, but to refine demons into the Dao.

By doing this, one can not only plunder the demonic path's fortune but also gain merit through education, making it a win-win situation.

The demon race created by Ao Bing, if it hadn't been formed from the resentment transformed by the demon realm, would not have been as good as the plans of the Western Two Saints and others.

However, since demons are formed from resentment, their role and significance far exceed the plans of the two Western Saints and others.

……

The demon realm has the ability to absorb resentment, and ferocious beasts are manifestations of resentment. The emergence of the demon realm can be seen as a fatal blow to the ferocious beasts, solving their problem at its root and causing their numbers to dwindle until they become extinct.

The Demon Realm possesses the power to exterminate ferocious beasts, and thus, since its inception, it has been plundering the fortune of the ferocious beast race.

Furthermore, since this ability of the Demon Realm was enhanced by Ao Bing, a portion of this fortune will flow to him.

This is what is known as plundering the fortune of ferocious beasts.

Furthermore, the ferocious beasts are descendants of the Chaos Gods and are also the tools for their resurrection. Therefore, from the moment they are born, the ferocious beasts possess a trace of the Chaos Gods' fortune.

This portion of the fortune belonging to the Chaos Gods will be completely integrated into the fortune of the primordial world with the extinction of the ferocious beast race.

This is what is meant by plundering the fortune of the Chaos Gods. And this action undoubtedly enhances the overall fortune of the primordial world, so it can naturally be considered as opening up new sources of fortune.

The existence of the Demon Realm further perfected the cycle of heaven and earth, greatly reducing maintenance costs and significantly improving operational efficiency.

This action will also generate more fortune for heaven and earth, which can be described as increasing revenue and reducing expenditure.

Transforming resentment into spiritual strength is called "opening up new sources of income." Making use of resentment and reducing its harm is called "conserving resources."

By this calculation, Ao Bing obtained quite a bit of fortune. Most of it wasn't from plundering the original fortune of the primordial world, but rather from acquiring new fortune through other means.

This is the most important thing. Even if you steal the original destiny of the primordial world through your own abilities, the gods will still be dissatisfied.

But if the good fortune comes from open source, then everyone has no choice but to accept it. Even if they wanted to find fault, they wouldn't be able to find a reason.

If you're not happy, then go ahead and open source it! Nobody's stopping you from doing it!
If you can't do it, you can't do it. If you can't do it yourself, but you can't allow others to do it, that's petty and will be despised by the world.

…………

The Demon Realm is now the most important focus of the primordial gods. They will sense any movement or disturbance there. Therefore, when Ao Bing made his move in the Demon Realm, it was not long before those saints and great supernatural beings who had not yet returned to their seclusion began to sense it.

What changes have occurred in the Demon Realm?

Taiqing frowned and subconsciously looked towards the Demon Realm. Following him, the other Sages and Grand Luo Golden Immortals also unleashed their supernatural powers, looking towards the Demon Realm.

Then, they saw Ao Bing creating the demon race within the origin of the demon realm.

"Human dragon!"

"It's a dragon-human hybrid!"

"Wasn't he in seclusion? How come he suddenly appeared in the Demon Realm?"

The moment Sage Zhunti saw Ao Bing, he knew something was wrong and couldn't help but exclaim in alarm.

Their plan was carried out behind Ao Bing's back because they were afraid that Ao Bing would find out and seize the Demon Realm.

Now that their worst fears have come true, how could they not be terrified?

Ao Bing is now not only powerful, but also holds the reins of righteousness, which is why the two Western Saints and others are completely unable to contend with him.

Bullying the weak is despicable. But using righteousness to intimidate others can force them to submit, leaving them no room for resistance.

What are the dragon-human hybrids doing in the Demon Realm?

"That aura... it seems to be the power of creation? He's using demonic energy to create a race; is he going to create the demon race?"

The other saints didn't have as many thoughts as Zhunti, because in their view, even if Ao Bing took the Demon Realm, their interests would at most be affected, not completely wiped out.

The loss was significant, but not unacceptable. Therefore, even when they saw Ao Bing appear in the Demon Realm, they were only shocked, not panicked at all.

But as they saw Ao Bing's actions clearly and gradually figured out his purpose, they began to lose their composure.

"A demon! He has transformed into a demon!"

"It is formed from demonic energy, with negative emotions as its body and spiritual power as its core. Killing it can resolve resentment and gain pure spiritual power."

"This, this, this..."

Everyone present was a person of great supernatural power. The moment they saw the demons, they could immediately sense their presence and purpose with just a little deduction.

Then, they couldn't hold back any longer. They thought Ao Bing only appeared in the Demon Realm to seize it because he didn't want the West to profit from it.

But the result was completely different. He was planning a ruthless scheme to eliminate any possibility of outsiders interfering in the Demon Realm.

Given the role the demons play, who would dare to destroy them?
Not only should they not be destroyed, but before they grow up, they should be carefully protected and their power developed as much as possible so that they can stand on their own as soon as possible and play their due role.

They cannot be destroyed; they must be supported. Naturally, the interests of the Demon Realm will then be irrelevant to them, and no one can interfere.

That's why they said Ao Bing's plan was a suicidal one. Since everyone excluded him, he simply overturned the table and let the Demon Realm become independent, so that no one but himself could benefit from it.

What use were all the previous discussions? Now that the Demon Realm has become independent, they have all become empty words, meaningless.

"No, that's not right. It's not that there's no possibility of gaining benefits from the Demon Realm. Right now, the Demon Realm is newly formed, and the Demon Race is newly born. Although they bear heavy responsibilities, they do not have the strength to shoulder the corresponding burdens."

"At this critical moment, someone should step forward and go to the Demon Realm to educate the demons and help them grow up as quickly as possible."

"Through acts of education, one can not only gain the merit of education, but also the fortune of education and the fortune of spreading the Way..."

Those with great supernatural powers think quickly and instantly devise a way to acquire demonic fortune. By simply educating newly born demons, they can immediately reap a large amount of merit and contracts.

The Demon Realm and the Demon Race are both crucial links in the cycle of heaven and earth, and their existence is extremely important to the primordial world. The more important they are, the more merit and fortune one can gain by educating them.

Just as the gods educated humanity in the past, they all benefited greatly from it. Why are there so many powerful beings with great supernatural abilities in the primordial world? It's mainly because of their role in educating humanity.

While the demon race may not be as important as the human race, let's not forget that the primordial world today is many times stronger than it was back then. Therefore, even if the demon race is not as powerful as the human race, the merit and fortune gained from educating the demon race still far exceed those gained from educating the human race at that time.

The bigger the pie, the more slices there are, and naturally, the greater the profits.

If nothing unexpected happens, the new era's opportunities will include not only the education of the endless world, but also the education of the demon race.

While anyone can educate the endless world, educating the demon race is not something anyone can do.

Because the demonic path is the mortal enemy of the immortal path, even if a powerful immortal cultivator envies the demonic path's fortune, they cannot openly and blatantly try to convert the demons. If they were to do so, they would have to wear a disguise and not show their true faces.

It's easy to put on a disguise, but once the demonic path becomes stronger, it will inevitably plunder the fortunes of the immortal path and the West. That's the real problem!

They painstakingly spread their teachings throughout the myriad realms, and just when things were starting to look up, the demons came and stole all their fortune.

If it was done by your own sockpuppet account, it's fine; the luck just moves from one hand to the other, so it's not a loss. But if it was done by someone else's sockpuppet account, then it's a pure loss, and who can stand that?
Good heavens, from now on we not only have to be wary of competitors, but also of the demonic path. Why is it so difficult to spread the teachings peacefully?

Given the relationship between the demonic path, the immortal path, and the West, it is clear that unless powerful figures from both sides have no foundation in their own side, if they go to the demon realm to educate the demons, the divine powers and techniques they pass down will eventually come back to haunt them.

On the contrary, those powerful individuals with little foundation can go to the Demon Realm to educate the demons without any scruples.

Because they lack a solid foundation in the Immortal Path, even if their fortune increases, the benefits they receive are limited.

However, after the demons in the demon realm were educated, the demons who were educated by them became their foundation. As long as these demons became stronger, they would inevitably bring them a lot of rewards.

This is incomparable to staying in the Immortal Path.

For this benefit alone, joining the demonic path is not out of the question.

After all, the demonic path, transformed by Ao Bing, has returned to the right track and has once again become a supreme path on par with the immortal path, instead of the evil heretical path that everyone hates.

Transforming people into the Dao fruit is indeed a heretical path. But this is what is seen as heretical by the common people; in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, it is a genuine achievement. Where is the heresy in that?
Whether it's a demon transforming into a human and attaining enlightenment, or a cultivator hunting down demons, both are acts of merit. Sounds contradictory, right? Actually, they're not contradictory at all; it's simply a matter of different perspectives.

From a human perspective, vanquishing demons is certainly a meritorious act, as it safeguards the peace and tranquility of all living beings.

Killing cultivators is also considered a meritorious act from the perspective of the Heavenly Dao, as it reduces the pressure on Heaven and Earth. (End of Chapter)
