Primordial Era: Starting with the Immortals of the Jie Sect to Prove the Dao of Hunyuan

Chapter 82 The Way of the Mind, Until We Meet Again

Having received Laozi's approval, Dijun excitedly returned to the Heavenly Court to begin mobilizing troops.

After Xuandu returned, Laozi opened his eyes, took out the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda from his sleeve, and handed it to Xuandu along with a jade talisman.

"How many people you can save and how long you can hold off the demons with this tower depends on your own abilities. This jade talisman is blessed by me and can protect you from karmic consequences."

Xuandu accepted the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda and the jade talisman, and knelt down, saying, "This disciple will certainly not fail Master's trust!"

After saying that, he stood up and strode out of the Eight Views Palace.

Lao Tzu watched Xuan Du's retreating figure, sighed softly, and then closed his eyes to wander in his own world.

In the primordial world, after Li Qing left Shouyang Mountain, he immediately unfolded the Taiji Diagram.

The Tai Chi diagram spanned the heavens and earth, and the Yin and Yang energies transformed into a golden bridge that carried him forward swiftly. It then unfolded the Mountain and River Map, which projected a soft light. Wherever it passed, countless humans were drawn into the map before they could even react, completely unaware that they had entered a different world.

He traveled day and night without stopping, and whenever he arrived at a tribe, he would take away any human who met the criteria.

Ten thousand, one million, ten million, one billion, one hundred billion, one hundred billion —

On this day, Li Qing was traveling above a tribe. The Mountain and River Map was, after all, a spatial magic treasure. In the hands of this Great Luo Golden Immortal, it released a strong suction force, trying to take away the humans of this tribe.

"Where did this demon come from, daring to abduct humans right before my eyes to feed on them!"

A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth. Li Qing looked down and saw a burly man in the tribe below, drawing his bow and nocking an arrow, the tip of which was aimed at Li Qing.

The man had no magical power fluctuations around him, but a blood energy that could shake heaven and earth surged within his body.

Behind him, a woman was watching him anxiously, her eyes full of concern.

The arrow shot out like a meteor. Li Qing instantly felt a terrifying force lock onto him. He hurriedly used the power of the world to isolate himself, but it had no effect at all!

"call out!"

With a thought, Li Qing conjured a Tai Chi diagram that swirled in the air, its Yin and Yang energies pulverizing the arrow aimed straight at his forehead!

"This is the power of the mind; where the mind goes, nothing is impossible!"

Li Qing's expression changed drastically. When he asked the Tongtian Sect Leader how a Taiyi Golden Immortal could defeat a Daluo Golden Immortal, the Tongtian Sect Leader mentioned that during the Chaos Era, there was a Great Dao of Mind Power, which could resolve his doubts.

When he broke through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, he saw Yi shoot down nine suns, but the distance was too far for him to notice. Now, he was facing Yi's arrow, and the power contained within it was exactly the same as that described by the Tongtian Sect Master!

"Huh? It actually blocked it?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Da Yi's face. His arrow had been blocked by a mere Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Moreover, those two pictures appeared to be surrounded by purple aura, unlike ordinary items, which made Da Yi even more vigilant.

Who are you?

Da Yi shielded Chang'e behind him, raised his bow and arrow again, and aimed it at Li Qing.

"I am Xuanqiong of the Jie Sect, and I am here on the orders of the Sage to lead a group of humans to see the Goddess Nuwa. I am not a member of the demon race who came to collect blood offerings from the human race."

Li Qing explained to Da Yi, and seeing that Da Yi had taken root and protected this human tribe, he gave up his plan to bring the humans here with him.

After all, the demon race wouldn't rush into the territory of the witch race to slaughter the human race. As the top witch, Da Yi had also shot and killed nine sons of Emperor Jun. Among the witch race, his status was second only to the twelve ancestral witches. With him here, there was no need to worry about the witch race taking action against the human race here.

The man sheathed his bow and arrow, turned to the woman behind him, and smiled: "Chang'e, it's alright now."

"Fellow Daoist Da Yi, it is fate that we meet, but I have other matters to attend to. We shall meet again another time!"

Li Qing was eager to complete Nuwa's human race mission so that he could obtain the opportunity to become a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal. Although he wanted to exchange ideas on the Dao of Mind Power with Da Yi, it was clearly not the right time.

Immediately, Li Qing took out a jade box, pointed at it with his hand, and a cloud of light supported it, presenting it to Da Yi.

"This is a ginseng fruit. I observe that your partner has no cultivation and a lifespan of no more than a thousand years. This ginseng fruit can extend the lifespan of ordinary people by three cycles, so I am giving it to you!"

The sound was still there, but Li Qing had vanished without a trace.

"What a strange person. I've never met him before, so why would he give me such a valuable treasure?"

Da Yi glanced at Li Qing, then at the ginseng fruit, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.

Chang'e did not speak, but looked at Yi with deep affection.

"Never mind, since he is a disciple of a sage, his character should be guaranteed."

In the end, Da Yi was moved by Li Qing's claim that mortals could extend their lives through the Three Yuan Meeting. He opened the jade box and smelled a sweet fragrance. A warm current flowed into his limbs and bones, and his blood and qi even became stronger.

"Good treasure! This item is incompatible with the Five Elements, so it must be dissolved in divine water using jade before it can be consumed."

Just as Yi was about to give it to Chang'e, he saw Li Qing's message and hurriedly did as he was told.

Not long after, Da Yi was suddenly startled. He looked up and saw a dark mass of demons, led by the Ten Demon Generals, entering the prehistoric world.

It turns out that after Di Jun returned to the Heavenly Court, he immediately issued the Heavenly Emperor's decree, summoning the demon army to descend to the prehistoric world to slaughter the human race and use their flesh and blood to forge the Witch-Slaying Sword.

"What are the demon race trying to do? Are they starting a war prematurely?"

Da Yi gripped his longbow tightly, his heart pounding with tension. He hadn't been back for a long time and only knew that the Twelve Ancestral Witches were in the Pangu Palace. He wondered if they were ready.

"You monstrous demon, how dare you descend to the mortal realm so openly! You have absolutely no respect for my Witch Clan!"

Da Yi took a deep breath, and his blood energy suddenly erupted like a volcano.

The blood energy flowed into the bowstring and the arrow, finally condensing into a point at his fingertips. This point was not magic or supernatural power, but a pure will. When will reaches its extreme, it can be transformed into power, which is called mental power.

"middle!"

As Yi released his grip, the arrow shot into the sky, piercing through layers of clouds and striking the Great Luo Demon God Xiu She beneath the Nine-Headed Serpent.

Xiu She died silently without even letting out a scream or seeing the enemy!

"Da Yi!"

In the air, Taiyi, who was on guard against the Ancestral Witch, was furious and was about to rush into the territory of the Witch Clan to drag out and kill Da Yi, but was stopped by Dijun.

"This is a matter of utmost importance. We must act quickly before the Twelve Ancestral Witches arrive!"

Inside the Pangu Palace, the twelve Ancestral Witches were all pale-faced, yet each was filled with joy.

"Hahahaha, the twelve Heavenly King Banners are complete! The end is nigh for those beasts of the demon race!"

Dijiang laughed heartily, for after a thousand years of refinement, he had finally succeeded.

Although it has not yet been refined by human souls, he already has a feeling that these twelve Heavenly King Banners are extremely compatible with the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation!
