Honghuang: The Golden Crow Emperor, starts by robbing the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 854 Hongjun is Disliked

"With the Forgotten River Soul-Pointing Diagram, the Birth of Ghosts Brush, and the World-Slaying Ink, Eternity is equivalent to having three Chaos Treasures in hand."

“If I fight him, what if I lose? That would be bad for us.”

"I won't fight him. At least I can hold him off without any risk. I'm doing this for the sake of the bigger picture."

Hongjun also had his own reasons.

"Have you no shame? You'd rather do nothing than make a mistake, and dump all the burdens on us."

"It's no wonder that Rahu looks down on you. You are, after all, a Chaos Demon God. You're a disgrace to the Chaos Demon God."

"Even as juniors, the Three Golden Crows have the courage to fight to the death. First, they fought the Eternal Demon God to a standstill, and now they are fighting the God of Rebellion to the death."

"Whether you can win or not is another matter. At least give it a try and have the determination to fight to the death. With your timid and hesitant attitude, how can you expect to reach the ultimate Dao?"

The Calamity Demon God couldn't take it anymore and started cursing at Hongjun, his cowardice was so pathetic that it was unbearable to watch.

At first, he dared not fight against Shen Ni, so he and the Three Golden Crows had no choice but to go up.

Then the Eternal Demon God made his move, and Old Bi Deng didn't stop him at all; he didn't have the courage to fight back.

He wasted all his cultivation and three Chaos Treasures.

"You should be glad that the Primordial World has Ling Xiao and his two brothers. Otherwise, with your cowardly attitude, if you led the Primordial World, Shen Ni and his group could conquer it in an instant."

Even the Lord of Deception couldn't stand it anymore.

"What a waste of those three Chaos Treasures! It's a disgrace that they fell into your hands. If they were in my possession, even if my cultivation level were two levels lower than Eternal, I would be confident that I could fight him."

Rahu was furious.

Even the saints couldn't stand it anymore. We were risking our lives, while you were enjoying your leisure.

They used to bully them, how arrogant they were when they were giving orders, a typical paper tiger, bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

If it weren't for the Three Golden Crows and their followers in the prehistoric world, and Shenni and his group had attacked, Hongjun would probably have surrendered immediately.

Hongjun didn't care; he let it go in one ear and out the other. He had finally climbed to where he was today, and he didn't want to die. As long as he was alive, he had a chance, and one day he would be able to climb to the peak of the Great Dao Realm.

So what if he's a coward? As long as he's alive and his cultivation level is high enough, no one will dare to mess with him.

He would never risk his life or take any risks unless absolutely necessary.

Let the Three Golden Crows fight desperately, while he stays put, safely enjoying victory and peacefully cultivating. Isn't that better?

Fighting to the death and getting injured wastes time healing and delays cultivation.

As long as his cultivation level remains at the forefront, the Primordial World will need him, and Ling Xiao and the others will also need him, so they won't dare to do anything to him.

He may be a coward, but he's not weak. No matter what, he can hold off the powerful enemy, the Eternal Demon God. The prehistoric world can't function without him.

Let them scold me, it's not like it'll hurt them.

Seeing Hongjun's shameless and unyielding nature, the saints were both angry and helpless. Indeed, the prehistoric world could not function without Hongjun.

Hongjun was too calculating; he always thought only of himself, not the primordial world.

They have now come to see through Hongjun.

They used to respect Hongjun so much, but now they feel ashamed when they think about it.

This thing has the nerve to call itself the ancestor of Taoism.

The most aggrieved were the Five Sages of Heaven, who had actually taken this thing as their master.

Putting everything else aside, at least they had the courage to fight to the death.

You can call them bad, you can call them shameless, but they've never backed down.

Yuanshi Tianzun used to constantly challenge the Three Golden Crows, getting beaten up many times, but he never backed down and kept thinking about how to defeat them. How shameful!

Now, Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi are filled with regret. If they had chosen to live and die with Tongtian back then, Tongtian would definitely have helped them break free from Hongjun's control over them.

Once they break free from control, they can completely sever ties with Hongjun.

Tongtian gave them a chance, but they failed to seize it. Hongjun was able to control them, so they had no choice but to submit to him.

Now that Hongjun has made a fool of himself, they have also made a fool of themselves.

Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets. Opportunities don't come around all the time, and the Six Paths to Heaven wouldn't tolerate them.

Haven't you seen how the Jie Sect is constantly plotting to destroy their lineage, a relentless struggle to the death?

"We can't just focus on improving our cultivation level; we also need to figure out how to apply the laws."

Upon returning to the Heavenly Gate Holy Palace, Lingxiao reminded the saints.

His battle with Shen Ni made him deeply realize how much the application of laws could enhance combat power.

The Law Domain, the Complete Subtraction, and so on, greatly enhance combat power, and are in no way inferior to the enhancement of magic weapons.

Although they had grasped the principles of the laws, their application of them was still too rudimentary.

This is also the biggest gap between them and the Chaos God.

"Indeed, the application of the laws is profound enough, no less than possessing a Chaos Treasure."

"There are a total of ten Chaos Treasures and forty-nine Chaos Spiritual Treasures. Many Chaos Demons do not possess Chaos-level magic weapons, but by relying on their mastery of the laws, they can still unleash tremendous combat power."

"For example, the Sword Demon God Sword Master has no accompanying magic weapon. He regards himself as a sword, transforming himself into a sword. Everything in heaven and earth can be a sword, and one sword can break all laws."

"By comprehending and applying the way of the sword and the laws of the sword, he has risen to the ranks of the top demon gods."

"I possess the Coffin of Burial Heaven, and Calamity possesses the Sword of Calamity, but in a one-on-one duel, neither of us is a match for the Sword Master."

The Lord of the Deceptive Path nodded in agreement with Ling Xiao's words.

All the sages were greatly shocked. Their mastery of the laws was so profound that it was incredibly powerful. They were now focused on acquiring powerful magical artifacts and became obsessed with them.

However, magical treasures are limited, which opened up new avenues for them. Studying the application of laws is much more realistic than thinking about how to obtain powerful magical treasures.

"Old Ghost, tell me in detail about the complete concealment."

Ling Xiao looked at the Master of the Deceptive Path. The Divine Reversal technique had left a deep impression on him. If he could learn it, his combat power would increase dramatically.

"Complete control is more accurately described as a state of being, where one's understanding and application of the laws are profound enough, and one's control over power reaches its ultimate level."

"Concentrating all power into a single point and releasing it without the slightest waste, the state of perfect control is not something everyone can master."

"Among the Chaos Gods, only those at the level of High-level Gods or above can do this, which requires extremely high comprehension."

"Only by thoroughly understanding the application and power of the laws, down to the smallest detail, and by controlling every bit of power to the extreme, can one achieve complete control."

The Lord of Deception's detailed explanation focuses on mastering one's own power to the point of being incredibly precise and accurate.

“That’s right. Very few Chaos Gods can reach this level. All three of us can do it, but our primordial spirits have not fully recovered yet, and we do not have enough control over our own power to achieve complete control.”

"Shennie has recovered to the fifth level of the Dao Integration Realm and has actually managed to completely conceal his true nature. It is truly unbelievable."

"Shennie is indeed powerful. No matter how unwilling you are, you have to admit that she is strong."

Rahu sighed.

Even someone as proud as him had to admit defeat this time, because he lacked the confidence to do it.
