Chapter 5 The Establishment of the Demon Court
The red banana leaf was the first to fly out, and morality was the first to take action.
A furnace flew out from his sleeve, from which six kinds of divine fire were produced. Upon receiving this leaf, it was as if the golden crow had thrown itself into his arms, and the leaf was thus absorbed into the Dao.
This move was so skillful that before anyone could even be surprised, the blue banana leaf flew out immediately afterward.
This time, Kunpeng made preparations in advance, and Styx intervened in time, successfully blocking Zhen Yuanzi, and the Yin Banana was captured by Kunpeng.
Kunpeng held the banana leaf in his hand. The banana leaf was filled with yin energy and could suppress the sea of blood. It was a treasure that was compatible with the Styx River, so he had no choice but to hand it over to the Styx River.
Styx was secretly delighted, but he didn't notice Kunpeng behind him, his eyes flashing and his expression fierce.
Kunpeng and Styx had originally agreed to work together to seize the treasure. If the treasure was compatible with Styx, it would be given to Styx; otherwise, it would be given to Kunpeng.
Logically, Kunpeng benefited because he promised to share a portion of the Styx's fortune after the Demon Court was established, and Styx agreed to this condition.
Kunpeng thought he could gain some advantage, but unexpectedly, he seized two treasures, both of which were compatible with the River Styx, which Kunpeng could not accept.
Just as Kunpeng was plotting against the Styx, the banana tree trunk suddenly exploded, sending countless fragments flying out. The powerful figures each displayed their unique abilities to collect the fragments.
Kunpeng was distracted by the matter of the Styx River, so the largest piece of the ginseng fruit was obtained by Hongyun, who was the fastest at the time. Hongyun then gave it to Zhenyuanzi to cultivate the ginseng fruit tree.
On the other side, many powerful beings, such as Jieyin and Zhunti, were neither skilled in escape techniques nor in divination, and their moral cultivation was far superior. They sighed and could only pick up some small fragments before heading back home.
Xu Qing and Yuan Shi, though they returned empty-handed, did not appear dejected.
This is a long story.
Since Xu Qing established his Daoist temple on Kunlun Mountain, he has spent many years with the Three Pure Ones. The three of them treat him like a younger brother, and they are very close. They cultivate the Great Dao together and share their knowledge and resources.
Xu Qing was thoroughly enjoying himself, and even made rapid progress in the happiness section of the Emotional Path during this period, already exceeding halfway.
Then he thought of the original fate of the three people in the primordial world, trapped by the Heavenly Dao, unable to be free, like puppets.
Unable to bear seeing his three elder brothers end up like this, Xu Qing chose to reveal the secret to them.
He claimed to possess a unique, innate ability, with unparalleled divination skills.
This distribution of treasures at Buzhou Mountain was Xu Qing's opportunity to prove himself to the Three Pure Ones.
Xu Qing had informed the Three Pure Ones of the approximate outcome of the treasure distribution beforehand, which is why he and Yuanshi remained calm.
Back at Kunlun Mountain, the Three Pure Ones finally believed in their younger brother's "divination skills" and no longer resisted the things their brother asked them to do.
But that's another story. Meanwhile, on the other side, Kunpeng, Styx, and Dijun Taiyi were gathered together.
Di Jun said to the three of them:
"Everyone, the Heavenly Court was already prepared for everything, except for one magical treasure that could suppress the fortune."
Now that Taiyi has obtained the Chaos Gourd, it is a timely help. Tomorrow, the Heavenly Court can be established, and those who join will be blessed with good fortune, and their cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds.
"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, Fellow Daoist Styx, if you two nod your heads, Taiyi and I can share the throne of the Heavenly Court with you."
Kunpeng was burning with desire, but he lacked a magic weapon of sufficient quality to protect himself, and he could not withstand too much fortune, so he had to settle for second best.
"Your Majesty, you are mistaken. I am not worthy of such a great responsibility. I only wish to preach the Dao to all the demons in the world and strengthen my Heavenly Court."
"Very well, since Fellow Daoist Kunpeng is so kind, I will honor you as the Demon Master, and in the future, your status in the Heavenly Court will be no different from mine and Taiyi's."
Emperor Jun was delighted to have one less emperor and readily agreed. Even Taiyi, who had been looking disdainful, softened his expression upon hearing this.
"This creature, though seemingly unrelated, does have some self-awareness."
Born from the Sea of Blood, Styx had no interest in the demon race and did not want to get too involved. He expressed that he did not want the throne, but only wanted to be a worshipper.
Di Jun didn't try to persuade them further. After exchanging pleasantries, the four of them went their separate ways. He then took Taiyi and flew towards the Sun Star, while simultaneously contacting Bai Ze and the other ten demon saints.
The next day, on the sun star...
Emperor Jun and Taiyi used the Chaos Bell to suppress space and time, opening up the thirty-three heavens and calling themselves the Demon Emperor. Taiyi stood beside him, calling himself the Eastern Emperor.
Kunpeng transformed into a giant roc that blotted out the sky, carrying the Demon Master's Palace on its back as it flew into the Heavenly Realm, where it was bestowed the title of "Teacher of Ten Thousand Demons" by Emperor Jun.
Styx, far away in the Sea of Blood, was the first to offer his congratulations to the Heavenly Realm, remotely manipulating the Yuan Tu and A Bi swords to hover beside the Chaos Bell, thus demonstrating his stance.
Hundreds of millions of demons across the primordial land simultaneously sensed the call from the heavens and transformed into streams of light to ascend to the heavens.
Above the heavens, the South Heavenly Gate stands tall, its pillars carved with totems of ten thousand demons. The Weak Water is drawn in and transformed into the Milky Way.
The Lingxiao Palace stands in the center of the celestial realm, its roof inlaid with the stars of the heavens. The Chaos Gourd hangs above the palace, gradually disappearing into it to suppress the fortune.
Seeing this, some remnants of the three ancient races were enraged and flew towards the South Heavenly Gate, only to be casually killed by Di Jun, their corpses becoming nourishment for countless demons.
This continued for several days, until no one dared to attack the South Heavenly Gate anymore. Emperor Jun, clad in his imperial robes, then spoke:
"After the Dragon and Phoenix, the Heavenly Way was without order, and the primordial world was in chaos. I am named Di Jun, and I am summoned by the Heavenly Way to establish a Heavenly Court, to act on behalf of Heaven, and to mend the world. All living beings of the primordial world may enter my Heavenly Court!"
Upon hearing this, the heavens and earth trembled, and a great deal of merit was bestowed upon the people of the Demon Court. Their fortunes increased even further, and they transformed into a three-legged golden crow phantom, letting out a howl to nourish the cultivation of the people of the Demon Court.
After Di Jun, Kunpeng, who was standing to the side, stepped forward and said loudly:
"I wish to emulate the Dao Ancestor and preach the Dao to all living beings, so that the primordial world may become stronger."
Apart from those above the Great Luo level, the billions of demons in the Heavenly Realm expressed their gratitude in unison. The next moment, heaven and earth bestowed merit upon them once more, and Kunpeng's face lit up with joy.
This was his second-best option: since he couldn't handle the luck, he would take more merit.
The Demon Master's Palace has been preaching for three hundred years, during which time the strength of the demon race has greatly increased.
Di Jun and Tai Yi were almost touching the Primordial Chaos Realm, while Kunpeng and Minghe had each reached the peak of the Great Luo Realm.
At this time, there were not many living beings in the primordial world, and the witches and demons could barely live in harmony. The demon court had an extremely pure fortune and almost had the potential to unify the primordial world.
Just as the Demon Court was at the height of its power, three thousand years passed in the blink of an eye, and the Second Lecture of Zixiao began.
The great beings arrived early, and at the sound of a bell, two children, a boy and a girl, shouted in unison.
"The Sage has arrived!"
The next moment, Hongjun appeared, still wearing the same Taoist robe, and flicked his whisk.
"This time, we will talk about the Way of Hunyuan and how to achieve Hunyuan. I know there are three methods."
Firstly, the Way of Law, also known as proving the Way through force, is the path followed by many innate gods and demons, as well as the twelve ancestral witches under Mount Buzhou.
This path is the most dangerous, and achieving enlightenment is the most difficult. I also started practicing this path at the beginning, but I couldn't find the right method and eventually gave up.
Secondly, the method of severing the three corpses involves using three innate spiritual treasures to sever the good corpse, the evil corpse, and the obsessive corpse, ultimately uniting the three corpses into one, which can become the Primordial Chaos.
This method is of moderate difficulty and power, and it was through this method that I became a saint.
Thirdly, one can attain enlightenment through merit. This method is the simplest, requiring only sufficient merit in the Heavenly Dao to become a Primordial Being. However, this method also yields the weakest of the three.
Those who are interested in this path can first sever their good and evil corpses, and then rely on meritorious deeds.
