Primordial: From a grain of soil to the ancestor of all paths
Chapter 336 The Qualifications for Succession to the Throne of the Heavenly Emperor and the Eastern
"Does this mean I should disregard the consequences and completely annihilate Tai Chu and the others right now?"
Faced with the growing threat posed by Tai Chu, Hong Jun also had similar thoughts to Tai Qing.
“But I have already refined ninety percent of the Heavenly Dao will within the Heavenly Punishment Seal. Only the last ten percent remains, and then I will be able to completely control the power of the Heavenly Dao!” Hongjun looked at the Heavenly Punishment Seal before him, caught in a dilemma: “Once I intend to completely suppress Tai Chu, it will inevitably provoke a frenzied counterattack from him, as well as Qinglian, Tianyan, Houtu, Nuwa, Yangmei, and the others!”
"Even with the immortality and inexhaustible power of those who have achieved Dao Integration, I can wear them down!"
"But in the end, it will inevitably affect my grand plan to refine the will of the Heavenly Dao, and may even render all my efforts in refining it over the past hundreds of thousands of years futile."
"The will of Heaven has never shown any intention of resisting; it is most likely just waiting for an opportunity to defeat me in one fell swoop..."
In Hongjun's eyes, completely suppressing Taichu and the others was not a particularly difficult task.
But he was afraid that this would give the will of Heaven an opportunity to take advantage of him and bring him some kind of trouble that was difficult to resolve!
Most importantly, the current Tai Chu has not yet truly attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm; he is merely in the process of integrating the three thousand Great Dao Laws!
Hongjun still has plenty of time to refine the will of Heaven!
Even if Tai Chu had truly attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, as long as Hong Jun could also promptly and completely control the power of the Heavenly Dao and obtain combat power comparable to the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm (Dao Integration) or even the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, what would he need to worry about?
The only question is whether Hongjun can completely control the power of the Heavenly Dao before he attains the Great Luo Golden Immortal status in the Primordial Era.
"Heh!" Thinking of this, Hongjun smiled disdainfully: "I have already refined ninety percent of the Heavenly Dao's will. As for the remaining ten percent, even if the Heavenly Dao still has some schemes, how could it truly stump me?"
"Besides, I was one of the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods in the past, and I have cultivated all the way to where I am now. Do I not even have this much confidence?"
With this in mind, Hongjun decided to temporarily disregard the threat from Taichu and continue to devote himself wholeheartedly to refining the Heavenly Dao Will within the Heavenly Punishment Seal!
Ultimately, he was still unwilling to bear the enormous cost of suppressing Tai Chu right now!
Focusing on refining the will of Heaven seemed to give Tai Chu and the others time to grow.
But as long as he succeeds, the so-called growth of Tai Chu and the others will be nothing in front of him!
The Heavenly Court, the Lingxiao Palace!
"finished?"
The Primordial Space Dao Avatar glanced at the sky, its expression shifting slightly, and murmured to itself.
He originally thought that after he killed Yuanshi, Taiqing, the two Western Saints, and even Hongjun might all be affected.
This is why he would send out several Great Dao clones at once!
To deal with just one Primordial One, only the Spatial Dao Avatar is needed; that's why the other Dao Avatars of the Primordial Beginning haven't appeared yet!
In addition, Tai Chu had also considered the possibility that Hong Jun might, upon seeing the speed at which his strength was increasing, disregard everything and attack him, as well as Tian Yan and Qing Lian.
However, he felt that at this crucial moment when Hongjun was refining the will of Heaven, the latter was unlikely to personally intervene.
Even if Hongjun were to actually perish, Taichu was confident that he, Qinglian, and Tianyan would escape unscathed!
Moreover, as long as Taichu and his followers continue to demonstrate their rapid progress, they will always face the threat of Hongjun potentially sacrificing everything.
Does that mean they have to cower and do nothing?
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Taichu!"
"If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Taichu's help, my human and demon races would probably have suffered a calamity because of Yuanshi!"
"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on your further advancement in cultivation and strength!"
"It shouldn't be too long before you, fellow Daoist, are able to successfully attain the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, right?"
"As expected of Fellow Daoist Taichu, you haven't even attained Dao yet, but your combat power is already so strong?"
"..."
At this moment, the holy beings of the demon race, such as Di Jun, Tai Yi, and Kun Peng, as well as the holy beings of the human race, such as Sui Renshi and Huang Tian, all came to the space Dao clone of Tai Chu to express their sincere gratitude and congratulations!
"There's no need for such formalities!" Tai Chu waved his hand dismissively, saying, "We are all allies who oppose the Heavenly Dao."
"It is my duty to help my allies in times of trouble!"
"As for attaining the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm? I'm afraid it will take quite some time!"
"However, I must also take advantage of the auspicious words of my fellow Daoists!"
"Now that the crisis for both the human and demon races has been resolved, it's time for me to leave!" With that, Tai Chu prepared to depart.
After all, there seemed to be little point in him staying any longer!
"Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment!" At this moment, Taiyi earnestly pleaded with Taichu, "Fellow Daoist, whether during the Investiture of the Gods or this time, you have demonstrated the ability to amplify the power of a certain Great Dao Law by using other Great Dao Laws."
"This is probably one of the main reasons why you were able to easily defeat Yuanshi and his clones all by yourself!"
"In comparison, we are still far from the strength of a Heavenly Saint."
"If we can learn these techniques, it will be much easier for us to deal with the Four Sages of Heaven in the future!"
"I, Taiyi, humbly request that you, fellow Daoist, teach me a thing or two!"
"As long as you are willing, I will do my best to meet any conditions!"
After this defeat to Yuanshi, Taiyi was very unwilling and eager to improve his strength so that he could seek revenge against the former in the future!
Even if he, like Taichu, controls three thousand laws of the Great Dao, he might not be able to deal with the combined forces of Yuanshi and his clones.
Besides that, the only way he could think of to quickly improve his strength was through the methods that Tai Chu had repeatedly demonstrated, such as using other Great Dao Laws to amplify the power of a certain Great Dao Law!
Taiyi already knew that the core of this method lay in the fusion of different kinds of Great Dao Laws.
But if he were to rely solely on his own slow research, how could it compare to the efficiency of Tai Chu personally imparting the key knowledge?
"If you are willing to preach, we are also willing to pay the corresponding price!"
Upon hearing Taiyi's request, the other deities of the human and demon races, including Dijun, Kunpeng, and Suirenshi, also lit up and made the same request to Taichu.
They knew very well that once they could learn the methods that Tai Chu had demonstrated, their overall strength would definitely increase significantly!
"That's fine!"
"Since you are so earnestly pleading with me, how can I refuse your request?"
"Then I will preach to you!"
"I don't need you to do anything special for me!"
“However…” Tai Chu shook his head and smiled, then, as if he had thought of something, he looked at Di Jun and Tai Yi: “I do have a new idea, but the two of you may not be willing to accept it!”
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Di Jun's expression shifted, and he asked, "Fellow Daoist, please speak freely!"
At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
The original suggestion from the Primordial Beginning regarding the improvement of the three Primordial Chaos-level formations of the demon race has enabled the demon race to possess the merits of the Great Dao and numerous karmic protections!
Perhaps this new suggestion from Tai Chu will bring new benefits to the demon race!
"It's very simple!" Tai Chu stopped being mysterious and said directly, "The human race is about to experience the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors." "Leaving aside the Five Emperors for now, I believe that at least when the Three Sovereigns of the human race have achieved their full merits, they will be qualified to become the future rulers of the Heavenly Court and lead the human and demon races!"
"Of course, this is not a requirement of my preaching, but merely an idea of mine, not something that you are required to obey!"
"Hiss!" Upon hearing this, all the deities present, whether from the demon race or the human race, gasped in shock.
While the so-called alliance plan between humans and demons has indeed brought the two races closer together, the relationship between them has certainly become much closer.
But it's obvious that the human and demon races can never truly be inseparable.
Even now, conflicts of varying degrees still occur from time to time between the human and demon races.
They were simply suppressed by Di Jun, Taiyi, Suirenshi, and Huangtian!
The title of "Heavenly Emperor," the nominal ruler of the Three Realms, has always been attached to Di Jun.
Let alone humans, even among the demon race, very few demons dare to have any thoughts of replacing Di Jun and becoming the new Heavenly Emperor in the future!
But now, Tai Chu directly says that the future Three Sovereigns of the human race will be capable of becoming the new Heavenly Emperor and ruling over the human and demon races.
Although Taichu made it clear that it was merely an idea and not a coercion.
But the fact that he said it in this situation proves that it wasn't just a spur-of-the-moment thing.
He could even push things forward openly or covertly at any time!
With Tai Chu's current cultivation level and strength, if he really wanted to make the three future emperors of the human race the new Heavenly Emperor, who could resist him?
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Di Jun, wanting to know how he would react.
Even Taiyi, who initially wanted to say something, held back and prepared to listen to Dijun's response.
"Haha!" Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Di Jun was taken aback at first, but quickly recovered and laughed loudly, "Fellow Daoist Tai Chu is absolutely right!"
"Isn't the core of the human-demon alliance plan the gradual formation of a unified whole where humans and demons become one?"
"Then the future Three Sovereigns, Five Emperors, and even the subsequent rulers of the human race should all be qualified to enter the Heavenly Court and lead the human and demon races!"
"As long as the other party can win the approval of the majority of members of both the human and demon races, regardless of whether he is human or demon, I will recognize his position as Heavenly Emperor!"
In fact, Di Jun had already made various mental preparations when he decided to implement the Human-Demon Alliance Plan.
This includes having someone from the human race inherit his position as Heavenly Emperor in the future!
Even in Di Jun's view, this was also a good way to increase the success rate of the alliance plan between the human and demon races and to give himself more opportunities to become a saint of humanity!
Anyway, as long as he can truly become a saint of humanity, then what does it matter who sits on the throne of the Heavenly Emperor?
Even if a human were to ascend to the throne of the Heavenly Emperor in the future, they would not be able to do anything excessive.
Otherwise, even if Di Jun intended to abolish it, Tai Chu certainly wouldn't say anything!
Moreover, Tai Chu only said that the future human race would be qualified to succeed the Heavenly Emperor, and it was only a qualification, not that he was to immediately relinquish the Heavenly Emperor position to a certain human race!
What reason does he have to object?
In addition, it is actually a good thing for Dijun that Taichu has brought up this idea in front of everyone.
Because if he were to bring it up himself in the future, it would inevitably provoke more opposition from within the demon race!
With Tai Chu's support, Di Jun will have more options in the future.
“Brother is right!” Taiyi quickly understood Dijun’s thoughts and dropped another bombshell: “As long as the human and demon races have sufficient ability and virtue, any human or demon can succeed to the position of Heavenly Emperor, or even… the position of my Eastern Emperor!”
"However, to be fairer, if the human race succeeds the Heavenly Emperor in the future, the demon race will be given priority to succeed the Eastern Emperor."
"The reverse is also true. If the demon race succeeds to the Heavenly Emperor in the future, then the human race should be given priority to succeed to the Eastern Emperor!"
As Taiyi's cultivation level increased, he gradually became less enthusiastic about the so-called Eastern Emperor position.
If even his elder brother Di Jun were to step down from the position of Heavenly Emperor in the future, he too would have no interest in continuing to sit on the throne of the Eastern Emperor!
Moreover, it will probably be quite some time before the brothers choose their successors!
"hiss!"
"His Majesty the Demon Emperor actually agreed?"
"His Majesty the Eastern Emperor even offered to allow another clan that would succeed him as Heavenly Emperor to inherit his position as Eastern Emperor?"
"The magnanimity of both Your Majesties is truly admirable!"
"..."
All the holy beings present were utterly horrified!
Since Di Jun and Tai Yi have spoken about such a matter in public, which could affect the human and demon races and even the entire prehistoric world, they will certainly not go back on their word in the future!
Once Dijun and Taiyi abdicate, a scene of "co-rule" will inevitably emerge, where the Heavenly Emperor is human and the Eastern Emperor is demon, or vice versa!
However, this does indeed align more closely with the core concept of the transgender alliance project!
"what?"
"Why should one of the Heavenly Emperor and Eastern Emperor positions of my demon race be given up to the human race?"
"Humans are so weak and have such short lifespans, how could they possibly be qualified to sit on the throne of the Demon Emperor or the Eastern Emperor?"
"Why did Your Majesties the Heavenly Emperor and the Eastern Emperor agree?"
"..."
Naturally, there were differing opinions among the demon race.
But it's useless for them to object to things that Di Jun, Tai Yi, and even Tai Chu have already decided!
"My human race actually has the opportunity to succeed the Heavenly Emperor or the Eastern Emperor and rule over the human and demon races?"
"Are we dreaming?"
"I thought that after Tai Chu finished speaking, Di Jun and Tai Yi would definitely try to find a way to brush it off, but I didn't expect them to agree so readily?"
"Taiyi even took the initiative to propose his succession to the throne of the Eastern Emperor?"
"..."
The humans also wore expressions of disbelief. (End of Chapter)
