Primordial Era: I, Emperor Donghua, establish the Immortal Court

Chapter 64 The Empress of Fengdu

An endless sea of ​​blood.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation are right there, but strange energy is still flowing around them and they don't seem to have stabilized yet.

Heaven has not yet shown any intention of bestowing merit.

However, the two disciples of the sages, Taiyi Zhenren and Dizang, seemed to arrive at the scene rather slowly, and had not yet reached the Sea of ​​Blood.

However, immediately, the Three Pure Ones and the Two Sages of the West, who were hundreds of millions of miles away, saw Zhang Zhiwei and Nie Xiaoqian arrive at the Blood Sea.

He was immediately alarmed.

"That person in the Taoist robe, if I remember correctly, should be from the Heavenly Court, right?"

Sanqing frowned.

They had never met Nie Xiaoqian, but they had met Zhang Zhiwei.

The last time Zhang Zhiwei came out of seclusion, he single-handedly suppressed several quasi-saints of the Demon Court! People still talk about it with great interest.

"So it seems the Heavenly Court is also eyeing the cycle of reincarnation?"

The sages all shared the same thought at this moment.

The appearance of people from Heaven meant nothing good in their eyes.

Moreover, it's at this critical juncture; even a fool could guess the reason.

Immediately, the expressions on their faces turned ugly.

Within the sea of ​​blood, the Styx Ancestor also noticed the arrival of the two.

In an instant, he discerned Zhang Zhiwei's identity.

He immediately emerged from the sea of ​​blood and respectfully bowed to Zhang Zhiwei.

"Fellow Daoist, if I remember correctly, you should be Zhang Tianshi of the Heavenly Court, right? I have long admired your name. It is an honor to meet you."

Old Ancestor Qihe clasped his fists and smiled in a way that hardly resembled the infamous Old Ancestor Styx.

Of course, he didn't really want to either.

Although he was considered a Primordial Great Power, he was still at the Quasi-Saint level, much stronger than Zhang Zhiwei.

But there was nothing they could do; Zhang Zhiwei had the backing of the Eastern King Duke.

We can't afford to mess with them.

Zhang Zhiwei was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

He has been in this prehistoric world for some time now, so he naturally knows about the Styx Ancestor.

Logically speaking, this should be considered a rather evil innate power in the primordial world, formed from the filthy blood of Pangu. He should be arrogant and only have eyes for saints.

But at this moment, a Grand Luo Golden Immortal actually bowed to him, which was something he never expected.

However, considering the identity of the Eastern King Duke, it seems quite reasonable.

He then smiled slightly, returned the greeting with neither arrogance nor servility, and clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Greetings, Senior Styx."

After saying that, Zhang Zhiwei thought to himself.

"If it weren't for the Emperor's power, what virtue or ability would I, a Great Luo Golden Immortal, possess?"

Since joining the Heavenly Court, he has felt its weight more and more.

But once you enter the Heavenly Court, even if you are just an ordinary heavenly soldier, you will be treated with respect throughout the entire prehistoric world.

Zhenhe quickly took Zhang Zhiwei's hand and said.

"No, no, Master Zhang, there's no need for such formalities."

Then, he looked at Nie Xiaoqian next to Zhang Zhiwei and asked with a puzzled expression.

"Who is this goddess?"

Zhang Zhiwei smiled slightly and began to introduce the products.

"This is the Emperor's maidservant, who has come here to oversee the Six Paths of Reincarnation on the Emperor's behalf."

Upon hearing this, Styx was immediately shocked. He had not expected that Nie Xiaoqian's background was so great.

The emperor's maidservant, although it may sound like she doesn't have a very high status.

However, it should be noted that this is someone who can see the face of the Eastern King at any time, which is not comparable to ordinary heavenly soldiers and generals.

Regardless of the circumstances, it should be noted that the current Dongwanggong is the strongest being besides Hongjun, and his ability to fight the Three Pure Ones alone and remain undefeated is definitely significant.

Even for a quasi-saint like him, meeting the Eastern King Duke is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Moreover, the fact that the Eastern King Duke was summoned to take charge of the Six Paths of Reincarnation is enough to demonstrate his status and position.

Nie Xiaoqian's treatment and honor are truly extraordinary!

Thinking of this, Styx was overjoyed.

"If this goddess could take over my cycle of reincarnation, wouldn't we become neighbors?"

"Doesn't that mean that if I can befriend him, I'll be able to meet the Emperor in the future?!"

Thinking of this, Styx could not suppress his joy. He was determined not to miss this opportunity to curry favor with someone powerful. He immediately bowed and said to Chang Xiaoqian.

"Greetings, Goddess! I hope you will take good care of me in the future!"

Looking at Zhenhe's expression, it was practically overflowing with flattery; anyone could tell what he was thinking.

The three matchmakers and the two Western Saints had been watching this scene closely, and their expressions became even more unpleasant, almost freezing.

As it turned out, their influence was incomparable to that of the Eastern King Duke.

If the Eastern King Duke wanted to compete with them for the fortune and merit of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, they would hardly have a chance.

"Damn it, Donghua, why does he have to meddle in everything!"

The group gritted their teeth, utterly disgusted by the Eastern King.

They would absolutely be unwilling to watch as that endless merit and fortune were taken away from them.

But unfortunately, they were no match for the Eastern King Duke.

Just as the group was getting angry, the Six Paths of Reincarnation beside the Sea of ​​Blood suddenly stopped changing.

Clearly, the Six Paths have now stabilized.

As the six realms of reincarnation are fully formed and stabilized.

Heaven has finally responded.

Instantly, a vast amount of fortune and merit descended, covering an area of ​​hundreds of millions of miles around—a truly terrifying sight!

This boundless merit and fortune has reached a level that is beyond the comprehension of others.

Compared to the merits that Nuwa gained from creating humans, this is at least twice as much!

In other words, these merits can enable two quasi-saints to attain sainthood on the spot!

Even a saint can improve their cultivation and advance to the next realm!

"hiss!"

The three guests and the two Western saints gasped in astonishment, speechless.

"That's outrageous?!"

The group was shocked and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Clearly, this number has exceeded their expectations.

"No, we absolutely cannot allow Donghua to take it all for himself!"

The group gritted their teeth and made a decision.

This time, they're going to take a gamble and turn their bicycle into a motorcycle!

After the merits of reincarnation are bestowed, they begin to be distributed spontaneously.

Most of the merit did not fall upon Houtu.

Only 40% of the share was absorbed by Houtu.

The remaining 60% was incorporated into the six realms of reincarnation to cleanse resentment and karma, and to stabilize the six realms of reincarnation.

Although only 40% was absorbed by Houtu, this 40% is not only strengthening the true spirit that Houtu had left after losing her Ancestral Witch body.

In the blink of an eye, all these merits were absorbed by the true spirit of Houtu.

Soon, the true spirit began to transform, turning into a divine soul.

And under this premise, it continues to grow stronger.

Finally, after a dazzling phenomenon appeared, Houtu directly reached the early stage of Quasi-Saint!

After all this was completed, a faint sigh echoed from within the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

It contains complex emotions that are difficult to describe.

This scene was witnessed by the Eastern King.

He couldn't help but speak slowly.

"Houtu has been reincarnated and is no longer a witch. From now on, she is the Peaceful Goddess of the Underworld."

His body can manifest in the six realms, yet he is also confined within them, much like the spirit consciousness of a vessel in the cycle of reincarnation. His true body can never take a single step outside of them. What a pity!

Amidst a sea of ​​blood.

Zhang Zhiwei and Nie Xiaoqian, upon hearing Houtu's final sigh, were momentarily lost in a daze.

Even Styx, a quasi-saint, was shaken to his core.

After a long while, the sigh, filled with complex emotions, slowly faded away.

Zhang Zhiwei and others gradually recovered.

Looking at the cycle of reincarnation, they couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing feelings, thoughts, and reflections).

Suddenly, two figures flew over quickly, staring at Zhang Zhiwei and Nie Xiaoqian with expressions of fear on their faces!

One of them had an air of otherworldly grace, holding a whisk in his hand.

A figure bathed in Buddha's light, holding a vajra (a magical pestle).

Needless to say, they were Taiyi Zhenren and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, two disciples of the saints.

Zhang Zhiwei and Nie Xiaoqian immediately became wary, frowning as they looked back at the two men, meeting their gazes directly without the slightest fear.

Instantly, the atmosphere in the sea of ​​blood became tense, resembling a battle of wits.

"Why are these two here? Disciples of a sage, getting involved in this kind of thing?"

Within the Nuwa Palace, ever since Houtu transformed into the Six Paths of Reincarnation, she has been observing from beyond the heavens.

Upon seeing Taiyi and Dizang appear, the pretty girl smiled slightly.

"Two more?"

Styx Ancestor was sandwiched between the four people, his brows furrowed.

There was a hint of ill intent in the way they looked at Taiyi and Dizang.
