Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 81 Hongjun paints a rosy picture for the demon clan
Hongjun brought the four demon kings and Kunpeng back to Zixiao Palace and directly closed the gate of Zixiao Palace.

Then Hongjun waved his hand, and the Jade Disc of Creation instantly flew out of his hand and began to spin slowly above Kunpeng's head.

As the power of the laws in the Jade Disc of Creation fell, the half of Kunpeng's body that was dissolved by the purple gold gourd began to slowly be reborn.

Even the remaining half of his body was transformed by the Jade Disc of Creation, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise for Kunpeng.

Instantly, the Dao and Law flowed through Kunpeng's body. The three flowers on his head also appeared. Finally, with the help of the power of the Jade Disc of Creation, he directly killed the two corpses of good and evil, and advanced to the mid-stage Quasi-Sage realm.

This inevitably made Kunpeng ecstatic. He quickly knelt on the ground and bowed deeply to express his gratitude to Hongjun.

Hongjun waved his hand and helped Kunpeng up, then looked at Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi.

It was obvious that Hongjun's face was extremely ugly at this time. Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi were so frightened that they didn't even dare to raise their heads.

"Didn't your master tell you not to bother the Three Pure Ones before you attain enlightenment? Why do you turn a deaf ear to my words?"

Hearing Hongjun's question, Dijun had to speak up: "Master, it's not that this disciple is looking for trouble with the Three Pure Ones."

"In order to complete the Heavenly Marriage, I want to go to Qinglian Island to find Nuwa. I want Nuwa to help me marry my disciple with a red hydrangea."

"I didn't want to be stopped by the Xuanming Ancestral Witch of the Demon Clan, and finally even Emperor Jiang showed up. I had no choice but to fight them..."

Before Di Jun could finish his words, Hongjun interrupted him with a wave of his hand. "It's clearly you who needs help, yet you act so condescendingly. Do you think the Three Pure Ones will let you bully Nuwa?"

"Finally, you were even more ignorant and made a bet with Tongtian. Do you know that with Tongtian's current level of cultivation, even without the Four Swords of Zhuxian, you can defeat him?"

"The Three Pure Ones possess the merits of creating the universe. Even as their master, I wouldn't dare to kill them. Based on this merit alone, the Three Pure Ones and the Nine Enlightenment can remain invincible in the vast world."

"Now you have completely offended the Three Pure Ones and have forced them into the Wu Clan's camp. Have you ever considered what the consequences of this will be?"

At this time, Di Jun's forehead was covered with cold sweat. After all, he knew very well that with the help of the Three Purities, the strength of the Wu clan would be greatly improved.

For a moment, I could only lower my head and remain silent, like a child who had made a mistake, waiting for the teacher's criticism.

Hongjun didn't say anything in the end. He just sighed and said, "What happened today should serve as a lesson for you all."

"If you continue to be so arrogant and ignorant, don't blame me. I will replace you with someone else to rule the Demon Clan Heavenly Court."

As he spoke, Hongjun waved his hands towards Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi. Two huge streams of Heavenly Dao Merit instantly descended, directly into the bodies of the two.

Instantly, the power of virtue entered their bodies, and the three corpse clones that had been blasted by the two were able to re-condense. Their cultivation also returned to the peak realm of Quasi-Sage.

Even so, the immense merits were not exhausted and still existed in the bodies of Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi.

"After Nuwa officiates your marriage, you can use the remaining merits and the luck of the demon race to directly achieve enlightenment and become a saint."

"Even if you achieve sainthood, you must never again harbor arrogance. For ten thousand years, you must not compete with the Wu Clan for control of the vast land."

Hongjun's words surprised and delighted Di Jun. What surprised him was that Hongjun was telling him that he should fulfill the bet between him and Tongtian.

He was happy because as long as he completed the Heavenly Marriage and received the blessing of the disinfection luck, he could directly achieve sainthood. He immediately said to Hongjun, "Master, if the demon race leaves the prehistoric land for ten thousand years, then the prehistoric land will be completely controlled by the witch race."

"Without a powerful demon race guarding the prehistoric world, it would be difficult for the newly born demon race to survive. They might even be directly strangled by the witch clan. Then the reproduction of our demon race would surely suffer a severe blow."

At this time, Di Jun still wanted to fight for it, hoping that Hongjun could find a way to make Chen Xuan and the Three Purities compromise and not withdraw the demon clan back to heaven.

In response, Hongjun simply snorted coldly, then said, "Back then, the three tribes of dragon, phoenix, and unicorn fought for supremacy in the vast universe."

“No matter how powerful the three tribes are, the ones who ultimately influence the situation are not the tribesmen themselves, but the tribe leaders of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin tribes.”

"And now the Wu Clan can only rely on the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the blood pool in the Ancestral Witch Hall to expand the Wu Clan."

"The birth of the demon race can be accomplished solely by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Therefore, the demon race will be born continuously and there will be no end."

"So what you need to do is to strengthen your own strength. Then you only need to kill the twelve ancient witches, and the witch clan's inheritance will be completely cut off."

"Even if the demon race's inheritance is cut off for ten thousand years, what will happen? In the end, the entire prehistoric land will still belong to the demon race."

As soon as Hongjun drew this big picture, Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi's faces instantly showed joy.

He even seemed to have seen the prosperous scene where his two brothers were ruling the ancient world and the demon race was the only one in the world.

Seeing Di Jun nod, Hongjun breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he couldn't help but secretly think that he should let Nuwa complete the creation of human beings as soon as possible.

After all, his plans had been completely disrupted. The Lich War, which was originally scheduled to begin several eons later, would probably be brought forward because of this.

Finally, in order to strengthen the strength of the demon clan, Hongjun also gave Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun Laozu a huge amount of heavenly merit each.

He helped the two complete the fusion of the three corpses and raised their cultivation to the peak of the Quasi-Sage realm. Now, they only need enough luck to directly achieve sainthood.

To put it bluntly, the path that Hongjun had the four demon kings take was not the true path of beheading the three corpses. Because the path of beheading the three corpses to prove the truth also achieved the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Therefore, Hongjun naturally would not allow a new Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian to be born under the current circumstances.

What he had the four demon kings follow was nothing more than a path of merit disguised as the path of slaying the three corpses, but not the true path of the three corpses.

Because the true way of the Three Corpses also requires the perception of the power of the law after the three corpses become one.

However, because the innate spiritual treasures that housed the three corpses' incarnations all possessed the power of a law, it was naturally easier to comprehend them.

However, to attain enlightenment through merit and virtue, one needs more than just merit and virtue. There is also a most crucial factor, which is the luck that can support the existence of the saint.

In the original primordial trajectory, Nuwa created humans and proved the truth, and her sainthood relied on the good fortune of the human and demon races. The Three Pure Ones and the two Buddhist monks in the West established their religions and became saints, also relying on the good fortune of the religious traditions they spread.

Unfortunately, the four demon kings were unaware of this and still thought they were about to achieve the status of a Heavenly Sage through the Three Corpses.

Little did they know that the path to sainthood chosen by Hongjun for them could only make them pseudo-saints.
