Primordial Era: Taking the blame to become a saint, proving one's path through eccentricity!

Chapter 140 [Slaying Demons and Subduing Buddhas, Bloodshed and Karma] (Please Subscribe)

The actions of the Styx Daoist undoubtedly possess a strong demonic style. What normal immortal cultivator would set up an ascension trap, pass on a flawed cultivation method, and turn the ascendant into a Blood God Child?

but……

While the ascension trap operation might be in line with the identity of a Lesser Vehicle Demon Lord, Xuan Yin harbored a great doubt in his heart!

"Those two in the West are both Heavenly Saints. Even if they have differences in ideology, neither side can completely devour the other's fortune."

"But Rahu is a Heavenly Saint. Senior Styx, aren't you afraid that Rahu might turn against you one day for rashly splitting the demonic path's fortune?"

"Those who stand before sages are all ants—this saying is no mere platitude!"

Upon hearing this, the Styx Daoist laughed and said, "You have a powerful backer, but do you think I don't? Naturally, there are sages who wish for me to weaken Rahu!"

"Otherwise, why would Rahu's Mahayana demonic path be targeted by immortal cultivators, while my Hinayana demonic path remained unscathed in the sea of ​​blood?"

"Even I, a humble Taoist, am qualified to attend the Great Luo Conference at Zixiao Palace!"

In the primordial world, without a powerful backer, one cannot move an inch. The fact that Daoist Styx, who possessed several innate spiritual treasures, was still safe and sound, suggests that having a sage as a backer is not an unbelievable thing.

However, Xuan Yin still didn't understand which saint was the backer of the Styx River!

Seeing Xuan Yin's slightly furrowed brows, Daoist Styx looked beyond the primordial world and chuckled, "Who else in the primordial world, besides Daoist Hongjun of Zixiao Palace, would most want to weaken Luo Hou?"

Xuan Yin was immediately startled: "Senior is Dao Ancestor... no, Master Ancestor's person?"

He really didn't expect that the fact that Daoist Styx became the leader of the Lesser Vehicle Demonic Sect was related to his grandmaster, the founder of the Immortal Dao system!

"It's just that we received the Dao Ancestor's approval!"

Styx shook his head: "Immortals and demons are the two sides of the yin and yang of the Heavenly Dao. If we don't find a way to reduce Rahu's fortune and position, wouldn't that Rahu be able to sit on equal footing with the Dao Ancestor?"

"The demonic path split into the Mahayana and Hinayana demonic paths. With the decline of the demonic path's fortunes, Rahu's rank naturally became half a notch lower than that of the Dao Ancestor!"

"Before I pioneered the Hinayana demonic path, the demonic path was no less powerful than the immortal path; one thought could make one an immortal, another a demon. But after I pioneered the Hinayana demonic path, its status plummeted, and it can now only sit at the same table as the Buddhist path!"

"Thus, the great calamity of Buddha and demons came about—Buddha becoming demon, and demon becoming Buddha!"

"Since the Sage Taiqing was able to use the method of converting barbarians to Buddhism to divide Buddhism and Taoism into Mahayana and Hinayana, couldn't that Taoist Ancestor do the same?"

Xuan Yin was shocked upon hearing this. Although there were imprints of past eras in the Pangu Palace, the cause and effect within them could not be reflected.

This was the first time he had ever learned that Daoist Styx was a pawn used by the Dao Ancestor to weaken the demonic path!

"No wonder..."

Xuan Yin suddenly realized: "As long as the Blood Sea doesn't dry up and the Styx River doesn't die, perhaps cultivators below the level of a sage can't do anything to Senior Styx, but a Heavenly Dao Sage has plenty of ways to evaporate the Blood Sea!"

When Houtu became a Daoist saint, did the Styx Daoist dare to attack Zhunti Daoist because he had calculated that the latter would not dare to kill him?

Killing Styx means offending the Dao Ancestor. Once the Lesser Vehicle Demonic Path ceases to exist, the Demonic Path's fortune will once again fall into the hands of the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

This is also why the Styx River is so fearless!

However, although the Styx Daoist had this connection with the Dao Ancestor, the Dao Ancestor was in harmony with the Heavenly Dao, so he could not provide the Daoist with much protection.

Therefore, after obtaining the Xuanhuang Ancestral Root, in order to avoid any Heavenly Dao Saint interfering with his path to enlightenment in the future, he resolutely used the Falling Treasure Coin and the Azure Lotus Banner to obtain a promise from the Tongtian Sect Master and the Goddess Nuwa!

At this moment, Xuan Yin finally understood the cause and effect between the immortals, demons, and Buddhas.

"No wonder!"

"Back then, that fellow Rahu clearly made a prophecy about the Tao eliminating evil and the demonic forces rising, but in the end, that prophecy fell upon Buddhism!"

"Buddhism and Taoism originated from the Immortal Path, and their status is inherently half a notch lower than that of the Immortal Path. The Demonic Path's fortune is diminished, and even in the Primordial True Realm, it is half a notch lower than that of the Immortal Path!"

"In this way, Rahu's prophetic words have been transferred to Buddhism!"

Whether it's the decline of the Dao and the rise of the Demonic Path, or the rise of the Dao and the decline of the Demonic Path, it's all based on the premise that the two are equal. As the status of the Demonic Path declines, Rahu's prophecy will naturally no longer be recognized by the Great Dao.

"They've found a scapegoat!"

Xuan Yin finally figured out the whole story: "Grandmaster really knows how to play the game!"

The two Western Saints broke away from Xuanmen and established Buddhism and Taoism, thinking they were no longer subject to Xuanmen's control, but they gained the Demon Ancestor Rahu, an enemy of the Great Dao.

The Buddha is the Way!

Rahu's Great Prophecy didn't specify whether it was the path of immortals or the path of Buddhas that was being destroyed!

Suddenly, Xuan Yin thought of himself, the Dao Ancestor in Zixiao Palace... Did he know that he had inherited Luo Hou's Twelfth Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus?

"I am destined to be the future master of the Mahayana demonic path, but now that I have taken incarnation into the Hinayana demonic sect, will this further weaken the fortunes of the Mahayana demonic path?"

Xuan Yin suddenly had a bad feeling. Could it be that his avatar, after inheriting the name "Rahu", joined the Lesser Vehicle Demonic Sect?

Although it is just an incarnation, the name "Rahu" represents cause and effect and destiny. As long as the incarnation joins the Hinayana demonic path, the destiny of the Mahayana demonic path will inevitably be eroded by the Hinayana demonic path!

"The Eye of Truth that Dispels Illusion!"

Xuan Yin immediately activated his Dharma Eye, looking at the twelfth-grade world-destroying black lotus in his primordial spirit, and then at the Asura incarnation in the Netherworld Blood Sea.

He could clearly see that the Asura incarnation who inherited the name "Rahu" took away a portion of the demonic fortune suppressed by the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, about one-tenth of it.

"What a rip-off!"

Xuan Yin couldn't help but look up at the sky. The unorthodox Pangu and the cunning Dao Ancestor both seemed to want to use him to take advantage of Luo Hou!

However, given the circumstances, it seems he has no other choice but to accept his fate!

Xuan Yin looked at Daoist Minghe and said respectfully, "Since my incarnation has entered the Lesser Vehicle of Demonic Path, I humbly request the Master's guidance!"

If he could receive guidance from the Styx Daoist, his cultivation as an avatar would be smoother, and he might be able to break through to become the Asura King in a short period of time.

Don't even think about it!

The Styx Daoist directly refused, saying, "The fortune of the Asura lineage is finite. If you want your avatar to become an Asura General, or even an Asura King, then go and kill and devour!"

"Whether it's the Mahayana or Hinayana demonic path, it all follows the principle of survival of the fittest. You won't go very far with my help!"

"You can only rely on yourself!"

Xuan Yin was still somewhat unwilling: "Isn't there some shortcut?"

"There really is!"

The Styx Daoist immediately revealed a strange smile: "Previously, I exchanged 30% of the Asura lineage's fortune with Zhunti for the Treasure-Dropping Coin. He used this fortune to convert some of the Asuras in the Blood Sea, turning them into the Asuras among the Eight Legions of Buddhism!"

"If your avatar could obtain this fortune, its cultivation would surely advance by leaps and bounds!"

"Besides that, there's the Bloodthirsty Black Mosquito. Like me, she's a manifestation of the Blood Sea. I possess 70% of the Blood Sea's fortune, while the mosquito possesses 30%. If you can find a way to kill her, the cultivation level of your manifestation will also rise accordingly!"

"I remember, the Turtle Spirit of the Jie Sect seemed to be facing a calamity that was destined to befall her!"

"If you can take care of him, maybe your senior sister can escape this calamity!"

Xuan Yin's lips twitched slightly. He could naturally see that Daoist Styx had ill intentions. Neither Buddhism nor the bloodthirsty black mosquitoes were easy to mess with...

However, he also knew that the situation of the Styx Daoist was not much better. The fortunes of Buddhism and Taoism and the Demonic Path were being plotted against and divided, and the fortunes of his Asura Path were also inevitably being plotted against and divided!

Thirty percent of the fortune of the Netherworld Blood Sea was taken away by the Bloodthirsty Black Mosquito, and thirty percent of the fortune of the Asura Path was also taken away by the scheming of the Zhunti Daoist!

Whether it's Buddhism, the demonic path, or the Asura path, all have been schemed against by the sages, and none of them have a complete and flawless destiny.

"Sendoh is still the best!"

Although the Immortal Path gave rise to five Immortal Paths, the founders of these five Immortal Paths all regarded Dao Ancestor Hongjun as the founder of the Immortal Path.

Therefore, the fortune of the immortal path is relatively concentrated, without any separation. Even if you want to cultivate five immortal paths at the same time, it is possible.

The path of immortality is simply a different path; there is no ideological conflict between the paths of Buddhism and demonism!

If there is any conflict, it is only a struggle between sages over the Great Dao, and does not involve the fundamentals of the Immortal Dao. Dao Ancestor Hongjun is still watching from Zixiao Palace!

Even if the Chan and Jie sects fought to the point of cataclysm, as long as the Dao Ancestor was still alive, he could intervene at any time and forcibly stop the sages' struggle for the Great Dao.

This is also the greatest advantage of the Immortal Path!

Since Daoist Styx was unwilling to do anything convenient, Xuan Yin did not insist, and let that Asura incarnate himself struggle in the Netherworld Blood Sea.

Having inherited the name "Rahu," how could he possibly perish so easily?

At the same time, he was also thinking about what the Styx Taoist had said, about the part of the Buddhist fortune, and about the part of the bloodthirsty black mosquito's fortune!

For the former, taking direct action is definitely not an option. Even if he has a sage as his backer, he himself does not have the strength to be fearless.

However, after Daoist Duobao goes to Buddhism, he can give Rahu an opportunity to become the leader of the Asuras among the Eight Legions of Buddhism.

There's no rush!

The bloodthirsty black mosquito was indeed a calamity in the life of the Turtle Spirit Mother, but at this moment, Xuan Yin did not know where the other party was hiding.

We have to put it on hold for now!

After some thought, he decided to first weave the identities of the other bloodline incarnations: "The other incarnations shouldn't involve so much karma, right?"

……

At the same time, under Xuan Yin's guidance, the Golden-Winged Roc also came to Shouyang Mountain to become a disciple, but the Taiqing Sage did not see him at all.

He was unwilling to accept this, so he immediately took out the jade token that Xuan Yin had given him and asked Grand Master Xuan Du, a disciple of Taiqing Laozi, to pass it on to him.

Taiqing Laozi looked at the contents of the jade tablet and said with a strange expression, "I am not Buddha, why would I take Buddha's maternal uncle as my disciple?"

He was about to have Grand Master Xuandu send the Golden-Winged Roc away when he thought to himself, "This Golden-Winged Roc might actually be of some use!"

The identity of Buddha's maternal uncle is irrelevant, but the Golden-Winged Roc, as the son of the Primordial Phoenix, has the right to inherit the Phoenix Clan!

Under the tutelage of Yuanshi Tianzun are Huanglong Zhenren and Sibuxiang. At crucial moments, they can use their karmic connections to intervene in the affairs of the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan, gaining more support at the Daluo Conference.

The Tongtian Sect Leader has a good relationship with the Dragon Clan and has now taken Kong Xuan under his wing.

Taiqing naturally had some ideas as well!

"That's enough!"

"Take me as a disciple on a nominal basis!"

Taiqing Laozi's mind stirred, and he looked at Xuandu beside him: "Go and call him in!"

Soon, the Golden-Winged Roc arrived at the Eight Views Palace. Upon hearing that he was merely a nominal disciple of the Human Sect, he immediately felt somewhat displeased!

"Teacher, even Kong Xuan has been accepted as a personal disciple of the Intercepting Sect by the Sage Tongtian. I, the Golden-Winged Roc, can't be inferior to him!"

As his brother, he naturally had a way of finding out Kong Xuan's current situation.

Upon hearing this, Laozi's expression remained unchanged. He merely glanced with interest at the Golden-Winged Roc and the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle at his waist before stuffing them directly into the Eight Trigrams Furnace: "If you can stay in this Eight Trigrams Furnace for eighty-one days, I will take you as my personal disciple!"

Boom!

The Bagua Furnace closed instantly.

Immediately afterwards, only the voice of Taiqing Laozi instructing Xuandu remained in the Eight Views Palace: "Start the fire! This old Daoist wants to see if he can hold out!"
