Primordial: From a grain of soil to the ancestor of all paths

Chapter 187 A Major Shift in the Landscape, Pangu's Influence

Time flies and years pass by.

Six or seven hundred thousand years have passed since Qinglian reversed and killed Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

During this period, the prehistoric world was full of wonders.

Countless powerful cultivators vied for the Dao, attempting to break through to Quasi-Saint level through the "Severing the Three Corpses" method. Countless ancient races also re-entered the prehistoric world, only to be absorbed and incorporated by the Celestial Court or the Demon Race.

Every living being is the absolute protagonist of their own life, writing their own legendary journey.

sun star.

The Demon Emperor's Palace.

Di Jun, Tai Yi, Fu Xi, Bai Ze and other core high-ranking officials gathered together.

"His Majesty--"

"Now that the period of divine favor bestowed upon the Celestial Court has passed, should we immediately send troops to the East Sea and crush the Celestial Court?"

Bai Ze bowed respectfully, his gaze burning as he looked at Di Jun and Tai Yi, who sat high above.

Over the past six or seven hundred thousand years—

The demon race has always been engaged in open and covert struggles with the celestial court.

Strive for power in the primordial world and the destiny of all races!
However, because the Celestial Court inherited the destiny of the primordial world, and because of the low-key development strategy of the demon race formulated by Emperor Jun and Fuxi, the demon race's strength was far inferior to that of the Celestial Court on the surface.

For Bai Ze, who aspires to assist the chosen emperor in dominating the primordial world, he certainly wouldn't let go of this excellent opportunity!

Taking advantage of the end of the Celestial Court's divine favor, they will break through the East Sea in one fell swoop, destroy the Celestial Court, and declare to the entire prehistoric world that their demon race is the true ruler!
"Xi Huang—"

"In your opinion, what should our demon race do next?"

Di Jun did not directly respond to Bai Ze's suggestion, but instead looked at Fu Xi.

"Now is not the best time to send troops to the Celestial Court!"

Fuxi gently shook his head—

"We tolerated the Celestial Court's favor from Heaven before, so why rush into a mutually destructive conflict with them?"

"Once my demon race can set up the 'Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array' that can fight against a Primordial Saint, won't a Celestial Court that has lost the favor of Heaven be at my demon race's mercy?"

"good!--"

"What Xi Huang said makes sense!"

Di Jun nodded slightly, agreeing with his suggestion.

Even when the Celestial Court was favored by Heaven, it failed to put much pressure on the demon race, let alone now that the Eastern King Duke has lost his mandate.
As time goes by——

The will of Heaven is definitely on the side of our demon race!
"Big brother, Xi Huang—"

"Some time ago, I traveled into the prehistoric world and met two fellow Daoists, Taiqing and Yuanshi. It seems that the Three Pure Ones have really broken up completely and are no longer brothers, just as rumored."

Taiyi chuckled as he recounted his travels and observations to the crowd.

"The split between the Three Pure Ones must be related to the last time Fellow Daoist Qinglian reversed and killed Dao Ancestor Hongjun!"

As Di Jun spoke, his gaze fell upon Mount Buzhou.

"Speaking of the last time, the impact was really too great. It was the first time in the primordial world that such a terrifying phenomenon as 'a saint fell and the world mourned' had occurred."

"All of my plans for the Celestial Court have been ruined because of this major event!"

Over these hundreds of thousands of years—

Besides collecting the power of the stars, Di Jun was also closely monitoring the movements of the Eastern King Duke, his 'enemy in the struggle for the Dao,' and made corresponding arrangements against him.

According to his arrangement—

It will lead the Celestial Court to expand wildly towards Buzhou Mountain, and then 'accidentally' break out in conflict with the Wu Clan.

Given the strength of the Witch Clan, even if the Eastern King Duke is the first to break through to the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint, he will inevitably suffer heavy losses!

But what I didn’t expect was——

The feats accomplished by Qinglian were too extraordinary, and the Celestial Court did not dare to send troops to Buzhou Mountain. Instead, it only dared to expand in the eastern and southern parts of the prehistoric world, which caused huge losses to the demon race.

"I wonder if the two demon emperors have noticed that since Qinglian reversed the slaying of Dao Ancestor Hongjun last time, the laws of the Great Dao in the entire prehistoric world have become clearer and the innate spiritual energy has become more pure and abundant."

"In just a few hundred thousand years, many fellow practitioners have broken through to the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint, and even among the Innate Saints who follow the 'Law Proving the Dao,' several have broken through to the Primordial Golden Immortal!"

Fuxi looked up at the chaotic sky, a faint intuition in his heart that all these changes were very likely related to the great battle that killed the saints.

Hearing Fuxi's words.

Di Jun and Tai Yi exchanged a glance and nodded in tacit agreement.

"indeed--"

"If I had followed the normal cultivation schedule, it would have taken me at least a dozen eons to break through to the mid-stage of the Primordial Golden Immortal, but I only traveled for hundreds of thousands of years and broke through smoothly."

As Taiyi spoke, his gaze fell upon Bai Ze, who was making his move.

"And Bai Ze is the same—"

"Given his background and aptitude, he would need at least a great opportunity to break through to the Quasi-Saint realm by severing his corpse, yet he managed to do so 50,000 years ago!"

"According to what Xi Huang just said, are all these changes related to Dao Ancestor Hongjun, or to Qinglian, the younger sister of the Great God Pangu?"

"It must be related to the great god Pangu!"

Fuxi withdrew his gaze and answered with absolute certainty.

Although he broke through to the Primordial Golden Immortal realm using the 'Great Dao of Music', he has been comprehending and mastering another inherited Great Dao—the 'Great Dao of Deduction'—for countless eons.

Through his deduction of this major change, he keenly sensed that it was all related to the creator god Pangu!
"If all these changes originate from Pangu, the primordial creator god, then our demon race must change its strategy and take action against the Celestial Court ahead of time!"

If there is only one "enemy" in the Dao struggle, the Eastern King Duke, Di Jun can completely restrain his Dao heart and just wait for the great changes in the prehistoric world so that the demon race can successfully set up the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array".

But now, besides the Celestial Court, there is an even more powerful enemy—the Wu Clan, the true lineage of Pangu!
If conservative measures are still adopted—

Even if they can surpass the Celestial Court in the future, can they defeat their formidable enemy, the Witch Clan?

"Brother!——"

Taiyi stood up directly from the Demon Emperor's jade chair, his pair of crimson-gold divine eyes looking down upon the ages, his whole body exuding an overwhelming domineering aura.

"Next, I will personally lead the army to crush the East Sea and destroy the Celestial Court!"

“That’s too risky!” Di Jun’s face darkened, and he refused outright.

Although the second brother, Taiyi, followed an invincible and domineering path and possessed the Chaos Bell, a supreme treasure of creation, the Celestial Court had a wealth of talent under its command, with more than five Quasi-Saints among its powerful figures.

How could he, leading a large army alone, possibly defeat the Celestial Court, which was waiting in ambush?

"Report!——"

At this moment——

An urgent report came from outside the main hall from the demon god Shang Yang, and Bai Ze immediately took the initiative to welcome him in.

"Your Majesty, the Eastern Emperor, the Emperor Xi—"

"According to urgent news from the Celestial Court's spies, the Celestial Court has begun a large-scale troop mobilization, returning to its main base in the East Sea, intending to establish a Primordial Chaos-level Grand Array, aimed at annihilating our demon race!"

Uh-huh! ——

Upon hearing Shang Yang's report, everyone present was shocked and their faces showed utter astonishment.

But soon——

Di Jun, Tai Yi, and Fu Xi quickly calmed down.

He considered himself the chosen emperor.

It is possible to obtain the Primordial Chaos-level formation, the 'Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation', from the innate treasure, the He Tu Luo Shu.

As the celestial ruler favored by Heaven, and also his own 'great enemy in the struggle for the Dao,' it is only natural that Dong Wanggong possesses a Primordial Chaos-level formation as his foundation.

"Big brother-"

"Delay will only lead to unforeseen changes. I will personally lead the team to annihilate the Celestial Court in one fell swoop before the Eastern King Duke sets up the Primordial Chaos Formation!"

Taiyi rose from the Demon Emperor's jade throne, dressed in a purple-gold imperial robe, exuding an aura of dominance that seemed to encompass the vast expanse of land.

Over these hundreds of thousands of years—

The Celestial Court expanded rapidly, and the demon race planted many spies within it.

They knew that the Eastern King Duke had been teaching the Great Luo Immortal Lord and the Taiyi Immortal General how to set up formations, and now that they learned that the Celestial Court had long been preparing to set up the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation,' they naturally refused to give him that opportunity again!
"good!--"

"Since this is a 'battle for destiny' with the Eastern King, how can we let you, my second brother, face it alone?"

Seeing Taiyi's high fighting spirit, Dijun finally made up his mind.

"Xi Huang—"

"Next, I and the Eastern Emperor will personally shatter the Eastern Sea and destroy the Celestial Court. I entrust everything to you, my Sun Palace!"

Di Jun solemnly bowed to Fuxi.

"Your Majesty, rest assured—"

"I will definitely protect the Sun Palace for you and never let anyone set foot in it!"

Fuxi rose and solemnly returned the greeting.

He knew that Dijun was worried about another major enemy, the Wu Clan, which was why he had him stationed at the main camp.

"good!--"

"With Emperor Xi in charge, I am at ease!"

Di Jun nodded slightly, then looked at Bai Ze and Shang Yang.

"By imperial decree—"

"Beat the drums!—"

"Reorganize the army!—"

"I will obey your majesty's order!——"

"I will obey your majesty's order!——"

The moment Emperor Jun's decree was delivered, eight enormous demons, each with a bare upper body, wielded drumsticks as large as mountains and struck the surface of the Gathering Generals Drum with all their might.

"Boom!—"

"Boom!—"

"Boom!—"

The drumbeats were like thunder, as if the sky were collapsing and the earth was splitting.

Before the demon race was established, Di Jun personally crafted four Gathering Generals Drums, which played a significant role in the first Lich War.

Later, after the great battle ended, he forged four more drums, making a total of eight, which were placed in the eight directions: east, south, west, north, southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest.

It was also marked by four large banners, representing all four directions.

When the drums sound three times, all the demons will gather!
Banners fluttered, and the sea of ​​clouds churned.

The neat and orderly ranks of the army were led by the demon god.

The twelve demon gods, Bai Ze, Jiu Ying, Shang Yang, Kai Ming Shou, Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Qiong Qi, Lu Duan, Qin Yuan, Gui Che, Bi Fang, Chong Ming Niao, and Ci Tie, personally led their armies to guard the area.

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Eastern Emperor! Greetings, Emperor Xi!"

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Eastern Emperor! Greetings, Emperor Xi!"

Billions upon billions of elite demons paid homage to the Demon Emperor Di Jun and the two Demon Sovereigns Taiyi and Xi Huang, their voices shaking the starry sky and reverberating throughout the primordial heavens.

“Swish!——”

at this time--

Nuwa, who was in seclusion at the Buzhou Mountain Daoist Temple, was awakened by the sound of the Gathering Generals Drum. She looked up at the Sun Star, her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and then she used her Great Dao Divine Power to travel through time and space to the Demon Clan's main hall.

"Greetings to Empress Nuwa!—"

"Greetings to Empress Nuwa!—"

When Nuwa appeared, all the elite demons were greatly encouraged.

Since the Dao Ancestor Hongjun gave his third sermon, Nuwa rarely appeared in the Sun Palace, but she was the anchor of countless demon clan members, because she was not only the Dao Ancestor's personal disciple, but also the future sage destined by heaven!
With Nuwa present—

What do we, the demon race, have to fear from the mere Celestial Court?!
