As Maitreya Daoist's soul was added to the Investiture of the Gods, the disciples of the Western Sect couldn't help but feel worried. They lost all will to fight and retreated hastily.

Fortunately, before his death, Maitreya Daoist used the self-destruction of his relics to severely injure the Yellow Emperor and Chi You.

This caused the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation to collapse instantly. The Earthly Saint's avatar vanished from the battlefield at that moment.

However, the Western Sect disciples had lost their will to fight. Instead, they took advantage of the broken Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation and retreated towards Xiqi City.

Even worse, he didn't even return to Xiqi. He fled directly westward towards Mount Sumeru. After all, only by returning to his home base could he be truly safe.

At the same time, the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation set up by the disciples of the Jie Sect was completely broken. Countless disciples of the Jie Sect also became famous figures on the Investiture of the Gods.

Even two of the seven direct disciples of the Red Cloud Ancestor died in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation. They were Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal and Black Cloud Immortal.

Meanwhile, things weren't going well for the disciples of the Chan Sect either. Among the Twelve Golden Immortals, Huanglong Zhenren and Ju Liusun had already been listed on the Investiture of the Gods.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wen Zhong led his army to attack Xiqi City. Not only did he capture Ji Fa alive, but Jiang Ziya was also taken prisoner.

On the contrary, Shen Gongbao, upon realizing that something was amiss, fled Xiqi without hesitation.

However, Shen Gongbao did not intend to find a place to hide, but instead headed directly towards Chaoge City.

At this moment, Shen Gongbao believed that Emperor Xin had already arrived in Xiqi. Even Fuxi and Nuwa, who were stationed in Chaoge City, were now outside Xiqi City.

At this point, Chaoge City would be vulnerable, and Shen Gongbao would prepare to destroy it directly. As for whether he would incur serious consequences, that was no longer Shen Gongbao's concern.

Therefore, a group of cultivators from Xiqi accompanied Shen Gongbao to Chaoge City. Their purpose was to undermine the city's defenses and force Di Xin and Wen Zhong to return to Chaoge City.

Unexpectedly, Shen Gongbao and his men had just arrived in Chaoge City when they were attacked from both sides by Yin Jiao and Yin Hong, and were blocked outside the city.

Yin Jiao directly unleashed the Heaven-Turning Seal, sending Shen Gongbao onto the Investiture of the Gods list. As for the cultivators of Xiqi, they also perished outside Chaoge City under the combined attack of the two brothers.

However, their true spirits did not appear on the Investiture of the Gods list, but instead went directly to the list of worthy men of the human race.

By this time, the 365 righteous gods and 84,000 stars required for the Investiture of the Gods had been completely assembled.

Even on the list of human sages, there are already hundreds of true human spirits. The Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods can be considered to have officially ended.

Suddenly sensing the calamity receding, Hongjun knew he had been defeated. Now, the only thing he could do was to kill Chen Xuan to prevent humanity from awakening because of him.

He immediately released his three avatars to temporarily block Yang Mei and the other two. His main body headed directly into the primordial world, intending to aid Calamity and Destruction and kill Chen Xuan in one fell swoop.

Little did they know, the Four Sages of Heaven had already perished in the Immortal Slaughtering Formation. However, their true spirits did not ascend to the Investiture of the Gods; instead, they returned directly to the Heavenly Dao to be reborn.

Therefore, when Hongjun returned to the prehistoric world, Tongtian had already removed the Zhuxian Formation and the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Formation.

And immediately, using a secret method, he delivered the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram and the Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords directly to Chen Xuan.

Therefore, Chen Xuan did not hesitate to activate the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram. As the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram slowly descended to Chen Xuan's feet, the Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords also hung in the four directions.

Just then, the space itself rippled. The three elders, Yang Mei and his companions, who had been in chaos, stepped out from the spatial rift. "Fellow Daoists," Yang Mei said, "I will personally guard the Zhuxian Sect. The other three sects are yours to manage."

As he spoke, Chen Xuan had already stepped into the Zhuxian Sect. Ancestor Yang Mei smiled and nodded, then headed towards the Juexian Sect.

The Yin-Yang Ancestor then spoke up, saying, "Back then, I helped Hongjun break the Immortal Slaughtering Formation set up by Luo Hou. I never expected that today I would become the one setting up the formation, and the one facing Hongjun is still the one I'm dealing with."

As they spoke, the Yin-Yang Ancestor had already arrived at the Immortal Trapping Gate. The Qiankun Ancestor had even arrived at the Immortal Slaughtering Gate.

For a time, the Immortal Slaughtering Formation was presided over by four powerful experts at the Dao Integration Realm. Although the central altar was empty, it was still far superior to the Immortal Slaughtering Formation set up by Rahu in the past.

At this moment, Hongjun knew that he had no other choice. He immediately said, "Fellow Daoist Destruction, Fellow Daoist Calamity, let us attack the Immortal Extinction Sect, the Immortal Slaughtering Sect, and the Immortal Trapping Sect respectively."

Hongjun's idea was very simple: to use his superior cultivation to first kill Yang Mei and the other two, and then join forces to fight Chen Xuan.

Little did Hongjun know that his actions played right into Chen Xuan's hands. The Immortal Slaughtering Formation ultimately needed someone to command it, and that person was none other than Chen Xuan.

The only difference was that Chen Xuan was not standing on the central altar, but rather directing the battle from below the Zhuxian Sect. However, this did not affect the power of the Zhuxian Formation.

So when Hongjun and his two companions charged into the Zhuxian Formation, the swords hanging above the three gates began to flash with sword light and relentlessly attacked the three who had entered the formation.

This also meant that even though the three of them had higher cultivation levels than Yang Mei and the others, they were unable to fully engage with each other.

It could even be said that the main fighting force came from the sword hanging above the main gate. The three patriarchs, Yang Mei and his companions, were merely supporting actors, occasionally launching sneak attacks.

This resulted in Hongjun and his companions being instantly trapped in the Immortal Slaughtering Formation. Although they wouldn't be in immediate danger, breaking the formation was also impossible.

Even if they wanted to, they would first kill Yang Mei and the other two. They probably wouldn't have the strength to do so.

Just as Hongjun and the other two were in a dilemma, Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi had already arrived directly in front of Dixin.

He spoke directly to Emperor Xin, saying, "Human Emperor, my demon race once slaughtered the human race, forging a deep-seated blood feud between us."

"In order to settle this karmic debt, from now on, all demons must go to the human race before they can take human form. They must help the human race in their original form until they gain the human race's recognition before they can take human form and attain enlightenment."

“Demons who have already taken human form can also conceal their demonic bodies and return to their original forms to atone for their sins among humans. This is how they settle their karmic debts.”

"As for the great demons of the demon race who once participated in the slaughter of the human race, they are required to guard a region for the human race. When they receive the sincere offerings of the human race, the karma will be settled."

"However, before the karmic debt is settled, one's cultivation level will no longer be able to improve. If one engages in acts of disobedience and secretly harms the human race, I will personally take action to kill them."

Di Jun's voice resounded throughout the entire prehistoric world, and all the demon race knelt down at that moment, uttering the vows of obedience to the Demon Emperor.

Di Xin, however, froze on the spot, unsure whether he should accept the demon race's method of atonement.

Just then, Nuwa appeared beside Di Xin and said directly, "Di Xin, why don't you quickly agree to this?" (End of Chapter)
