Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 914 The Heavenly Demon Rules Through Time and Space, Changing the World

Jiangdong Daoting, Tianwu Hall.

Emperor Jiayou, who was in the imperial court with the three dukes, was using his divine sense to search the entire Immortal Pivot in an attempt to find traces of the Primordial Heavenly Demon when he suddenly froze.

The next second, he felt his soul sink, and he went from being light and ethereal to becoming heavy and cumbersome. His thoughts and ideas also fell into a daze, and countless consciousnesses were buried. Scenes of the past flashed by, and soon the scene in front of him underwent a complete transformation.

The location remains Tianwu Palace.

He was dressed in a dragon robe and wearing a crown, sitting upright on the dragon throne. Everything seemed unchanged, except that the magical power within his body had inexplicably weakened.

'My cultivation level... what's going on?'

Emperor Jiayou shook his head, feeling his memories inexplicably confused. "I should be in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, not far from becoming a Great True Monarch."

But now, his level of attainment has declined.

Not only did he become a Golden Core cultivator in the early stages, but his power also declined significantly, and his control over the [Roadside Soil] also worsened, almost as if he had just broken through.

Um?and many more.

Thinking of this, Emperor Jiayou became even more puzzled:
"No, I only recently broke through to the throne. After all, I just ascended the throne after my elder brother died suddenly without leaving any heirs. I am a prince from a vassal state who came to the capital to succeed to the throne."

Something seems off?

'Wait a minute, I should be in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. Am I mistaken?'

Emperor Jiayou tried his best to think, but the more he thought, the clearer his memory became, and he became more and more "clear-headed." Wait, there's nothing wrong with it!
However, unseen by him, above the Tianwu Palace, a dark figure was lurking, and in the figure's hand was a ball of light radiating boundless iridescent colors. Each ray of light reflected a scene of cause and effect, layer upon layer, weaving a net that captivated the eye.

It is indeed the soil on the city wall.

Immediately afterwards, the dark shadows receded, and a primordial demon with long, flowing hair emerged, holding [City Wall Soil] in his hand, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Lü Yang's guess was very accurate.

His primary target was indeed Emperor Jiayou, because he had already secretly gone overseas to investigate, but he hadn't even seen a trace of the old Dragon King.

This is the soil from the city walls.

The Primordial Demon pondered to himself. He knew very well his origins and that his mission in this descent was to seize as much of the "calamity" as possible.

Therefore, he has at least three things to do.

One option is to unleash a great calamity as a primordial demon, and the more cultivators who die because of him, the better, so that he can gain the approval of the "calamity".

The second is Lü Yang.

"That Immortal Lord who controls tribulations and karmic trials, I will undoubtedly kill him. However, his methods are unpredictable, and he must have ways to deal with inner demons, so he won't be so easy to deal with."

"First, kill Emperor Jiayou and devour the three dukes of the Dao Court to help me advance further. This matter concerns the [calamity], so that lord of the Dao Court won't interfere much. Once I've devoured the Dao Court, I'll be invincible in the mid-Golden Core stage. At that time, I'll go find that Immortal Lord who controls the Tribulation Crossing Karma and find a way to kill him in one fell swoop."

The Primal Demon was full of confidence.

His confidence stemmed not only from his own demonic abilities, but more importantly from the [City Wall Soil], a supreme position that he had now requisitioned.

Although he did not actually possess any cultivation related to the "City Wall Soil," the World Honored One had already taken this into account and refined this fruition into a magical treasure.

【Time-Shifting and World-Changing Ritual】!
This is a method that only the World Honored One, only the former first Master of Wanbao Peak, could achieve, to refine the supreme fruit into a magic weapon that everyone can use!
However, this is not something that can be done casually.

Such a treasure exists entirely due to the power of the World Honored One, which means that the World Honored One always keeps his gaze upon this magical artifact.

This thing only exists in heaven.

Once the World Honored One removes the great power applied to it, all the mysteries of the magic treasure will immediately collapse, and the [city wall soil] will fall into silence again.

'This is both support and surveillance.'

'Because I am different, I am not within the 'Unity of All Hearts,' because the 'Calamity' cannot allow another Dao Lord's avatar to interfere.' Thinking of this, the Primordial Heavenly Demon's heart surged with excitement and exhilaration.

This is both an opportunity and a challenge.

The opportunity lies in the fact that it does not have to worry about the Buddha replacing it at any time, and it even has the opportunity to attain enlightenment. The difficulty lies in the fact that the Buddha controls its life and death.

'So I have to show myself.'

'Only if the World-Honored One sees my abilities and methods, and believes that I have a certain chance of seizing the [calamity], will I have any value in continuing to exist.'

Gathering his thoughts, the Primordial Demon stopped pondering.

He made hand seals and gestures, continuously pouring his magical power into the [Time-Shifting Ritual], and then gently turned it so that the front of the magical artifact faced outwards.

The [Time-Shifting and World-Changing Ritual] has two great mysteries.

With the front facing outwards, this magical artifact represents correct mindfulness and is called the "Time-Shifting and World-Changing Ritual." It can change the present-day consequences by shifting the causes of the past.

When read backwards, this magical artifact is called the "Transformation of Life and Times Ritual," which is used to change the present-day results in order to influence the causes of the past.

At this moment, the Primordial Heavenly Demon was using the positive and profound aspects of this magic weapon. What Emperor Jiayou was falling into was not reality, but a scene of cause and effect. This was not a true time reversal, but simply a karmic connection extracted from the great net of cause and effect, yet it could truly change the outcome.

'Now he has returned to the day he ascended the throne.'

"At this point in time, the Grand Tutor of the Dao Court had just been defeated by True Monarch Feixue, and his cultivation level was unstable. Therefore, in order to stabilize the court, they chose to send this vassal king to the capital."

In official history, Emperor Jiayou, relying on his wisdom and imperial status, used the "Great Dao Discussion" to force the death of the Grand Tutor of the Dao Court, whose prestige had been greatly damaged by being defeated by the Flying Snow True Lord, and compelled him to reincarnate. At the same time, he himself rose to power and completely controlled the court.

This is just a brief description of the web of cause and effect.

However, for Emperor Jiayou, those years were by no means as easy as they seem on the surface. On several occasions, he almost chose to give up the struggle for power.

But in the end, he persevered.

What the Primal Demon Lord wanted to do was to make him give up.

'If he had given up his power struggle with the Grand Tutor of the Dao Court back then, the imperial power would have been usurped, and he wouldn't have reached the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm today.'

Thinking of this, the Primordial Demon grinned.

'Unfortunately, I can't kill him right here.'

'Because all of this is merely a manifestation of cause and effect, I can't even act openly and honestly, as that would only cause the manifestation of cause and effect to shatter directly.'

'At that time, I might even suffer the consequences of karma.'

The next second, it transformed into a gust of cold wind and silently fell into the Tianwu Palace below, blowing into Emperor Jiayou's already confused mind.

In an instant, countless thoughts of lying down and giving up arose in Emperor Jiayou's mind.

The karma of the Golden Elixir True Monarch is extremely heavy.

Therefore, even the soil on the city wall cannot be changed at will, and its existence cannot even be discovered by the target trapped in the cause-and-effect scenario.

Otherwise, if the other party truly awakens, they will immediately be able to see through cause and effect.

Therefore, generally speaking, even for a True Lord of the City Wall, it is extremely difficult to change the cause and effect; a great deal of preparation must be made beforehand.

However, the Primordial Heavenly Demon was different.

As a demon within the heart, it possesses the ability to transform into something invisible, stirring up thoughts without being detected by anyone, and thus influencing the True Lord's actions.

It's a perfect match with [city wall soil].

What? This shameless combination is way too overpowered for a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator? That's the charm of the mechanics! Go and talk to the World Honored One about it!
This is the true calamity of the Heavenly Demon!
There is no way to deal with it in the present world. Even if you have immense magical power, it is difficult to make a difference because it directly manipulates your past and your karma!
