Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 218: The God-conferring Tribulation Shocks the Heavens
Tongtian's answer was within Bai Jing's expectations. He thought about it and summoned the Four Poles Square Zun to block out all prying eyes.

Tongtian's expression couldn't help but become serious when he saw this. With Bai Jing's current level of cultivation, he could isolate himself from all prying eyes even if he did nothing. Even if Tiandao wanted to investigate Bai Jing, he would be able to sense it.

Now that Bai Jing has summoned the Four Extremes Square Lord, it is obvious that this is to cut off any possibility of being spied on or calculated.

"Does Brother Bai Jing have anything to say?" Tongtian asked in a serious tone.

"Does Daoist Tongtian know that the next catastrophe is coming?"

"The next calamity? How is that possible? The Lich Calamity has only been over for twelve epochs at most. How could the next calamity appear?"

"Under normal circumstances, it is indeed impossible, but what if there is a push from Heaven?"

Tongtian was silent.

As a saint, Tongtian naturally has some understanding of the great catastrophe.

The so-called catastrophe, on the surface, is because there is too much killing in the world, and countless negative auras accumulate day by day, and after years and months, the catastrophe will erupt.

After the catastrophe breaks out, those who are affected by the catastrophe will perish, and the catastrophe will then dissipate, and clarity will return to the world.

After Tongtian became a saint, he discovered that the catastrophe was often just used as a tool to settle cause and effect, or to carry out destructive things in the name of the catastrophe, like the last time the witch and demon catastrophe was like this.

Thinking of this, Tongtian suddenly realized something. He asked tentatively, "Daoyou Bai Jing suddenly mentioned the next calamity. Could it be that the next calamity is related to my Jiejiao?"

Bai Jing nodded and said, "I think Fellow Daoist Tongtian has already figured it out. Many disciples of Jiejiao have a connection with the Heavenly Court. This does not mean that Jiejiao and the Heavenly Court will be on the same front in the future, but that a large number of Jiejiao disciples will perish in the next catastrophe and become pawns controlled by the Heavenly Court."

Tongtian's face changed drastically when he heard this. Bai Jing's words were really shocking to him.

The last time Tongtian was so shocked was when he saw the Wu Clan reunite the Father God's phantom with the Twelve Gods of Heaven formation, and then holding the Axe of Creation to open up the demon world and the earth world.

"Are you serious, Brother Bai Jing?" Tongtian asked in a deep voice.

"Of course I take it seriously. If you don't believe me, I can swear a great oath."

Tongtian was silent for a long while before he asked, "Daoyou Bai Jing, how did you know about this?"

"When my body evolved into the 30th-grade Chaos White Lotus, I felt as if I had merged with the Great Dao. At that time, I seemed to see the future of the entire prehistoric world."

"You saw the future of the ancient world?"

“Yes, I saw that after the Lich and Wizard Tribulation, most of the quasi-saints of the two tribes died, and the strong men in the tribe were also almost completely destroyed.

Without the witch clan, the underworld naturally never awakened. As a result, Hou Tu transformed into the six realms of reincarnation, lost her identity as the ancestor of witches, and became Niangniang Pingxin, who was never allowed to leave the underworld for the rest of her life. Only a few cats from the witch clan escaped to the underworld, and the situation of the demon clan was similar.

The two races thus withdrew from the prehistoric stage, and later, with the intervention of the saints, the human race became the protagonist of the new world.

After going through the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, it finally came to a dynasty called Shang. At this time, the next catastrophe of the Conferred Gods broke out.

This catastrophe revolved around the change of dynasties in the human world. The disciples of the Jiejiao stood on the side of the Shang Dynasty and a war broke out with the Chenjiao.

Later, the Orthodox Sect received assistance from the Human Sect and the Western Sect, and sent a large number of Jie Sect disciples to the List of Gods, but you were also broken by the Four Sages' Zhuxian Sword Formation, and finally even the Jie Sect's trump card Ten Thousand Immortals Formation was broken. From then on, Jie Sect existed in name only.

In a rage, you planned to re-refine the earth, fire, water and wind, but were stopped by Hongjun. Hongjun was afraid that you would cause trouble again, so he fed you and your two brothers the Falling Saint Pill, and then ordered all the saints to withdraw from the prehistoric world and no longer participate in prehistoric affairs. Hongjun even imprisoned you in the Purple Sky Palace. "

After hearing Bai Jing's words, Tongtian was in disbelief. He could never have imagined that his brother would actually join forces with two saints from the Western Church to besiege him.

"Wait! Fellow Daoist Bai Jing, where are you and Fellow Daoist Nuwa? Aren't you participating in the next catastrophe?" Tongtian asked.

"These are what I saw. There is no trace of me and Nuwa. It could be that something unexpected happened to us and we did not become saints. Or it could be that..."

"It is also possible that in the future, the two Daoists and I will be imprisoned in advance, and even our lives will be in danger. After all, Daoist Fellow Bai Jing is not a saint, but only a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. If he dies, there is no way to resurrect. Is this the reason why the two Daoists often discuss Taoism together?" Tongtian asked with a wry smile.

Bai Jing nodded. What he wanted was for Tongtian to come up with this idea, so that the three of them would be in the same boat.

"Fellow Daoist Bai Jing, what exactly do you want to do by telling me this?"

"I want to form an alliance with Daoist Fellow Tongtian. The three of you will most likely be the ones to be afflicted in the next catastrophe. In this case, the three of us have the same stance and the same interests."

Tongtian pondered for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay! I am willing to form an alliance with you, fellow Taoist."

Bai Jing smiled when he saw Tongtian agreed.

"Fellow Daoist Bai Jing, what should we do next? Should we make some preparations in advance for the next catastrophe?"

"It is necessary to prepare in advance, but not for the next catastrophe, but for what will happen soon."

The sight came to the human race.

Shaohao, who was writing at his desk, put down the wolf-hair brush in his hand. He rubbed his brows and slowly closed the "Shennong's Herbal Classic" on the low table in front of him. His gray hair was faintly visible in the dim light. He turned his head to look at Xuandu, who also had gray hair, and sighed, "Xuandu, how many years have we known each other as king and subject?"

"More than 3700 years!" Xuan Du answered after thinking for a while.

"Yes! It has been more than 3700 years. I am grateful for having you by my side all these years. Otherwise, it would be even more difficult for me to be the leader of the human race." Shaohao murmured as he collapsed on the big chair.

"The Lord is a man of great talent and vision. It probably won't make much difference whether I'm around or not."

"Are you a man of great talent? Xuandu, please stop flattering me. My talent is far inferior to that of my father, Shennong, and Fuxi.

My father chose me to be the new leader of the human race, but it was just because he picked the tallest one among the short ones!
After I became the leader of the human race, it seemed that the territory of the human race was greatly expanded, but in fact, it was just a beautiful appearance with rotten cotton inside. I spent all my life's efforts, but I couldn't eliminate the evil spirits and keep the human race safe. I am not qualified to be the leader!"

Looking at Shaohao with gray hair, Xuandu sighed and said, "This is not your fault. The human race is the protagonist of heaven and earth. In the eyes of many forces, the fate of the human race is absolutely not to be abandoned. It is really difficult for you to reverse the situation by your own strength."

"Yes! Fortunately, I have already chosen the next emperor. Zhuanxu has the guidance of Lady Yunxiao from the Holy Lotus Sect. The Holy Lotus Sect is also the largest sect in our human race with the largest number of believers. If Zhuanxu can get help from the Holy Lotus Sect, he may be able to complete my unfinished business."

Two years later, in the city of Moyi, which was expanded from the original Chendu, on the towering altar built of huge stones, Zhuanxu, wearing a bright yellow robe and a double dragon crown on his head, held the heart incense in both hands and inserted it into the tripod. Shaohao, also wearing a bright yellow robe, handed the Kongtong Seal to Zhuanxu, who took the Kongtong Seal and raised his arms high. For a while, the shouts shook the sky. From then on, Zhuanxu became the second Five Emperors of the human race.

Shaohao, who had completed all the merits, obtained a huge amount of merits, and his cultivation level rose from the early stage of Xuanxian to the early stage of Quasi-Sage.

Xuandu, who had assisted Shaohao for many years, also received a lot of merits. These merits helped him to go further and successfully killed Shanshi, and also broke through to the quasi-saint level.

Shaohao looked at Xuandu who had regained his youthful appearance in front of him with a dazed look. After a long while, Shaohao asked, "Xuandu, are you a disciple of the saint?"

"Yes, Lord, you once asked me, my name is the same as Xuandu of the Xiantian human race, are I related to him? At that time I said we just happened to have the same name, now Lord, your merits have been fulfilled, I can tell you the truth, I am Xuandu."

Shaohao smiled bitterly upon hearing this and said, "Xuandu, you have kept it a secret from me. If I knew that you were the only disciple of the Saint Taiqing, I could use the power of Taoism to expel all those who tried to interfere with the destiny of the human race."

Xuan Du shook his head and said, "I have asked my master about this matter. My master said that even if my Taoism is willing to help, your wish will be difficult to realize, so I did not tell you my identity."

"So that's how it is. It seems everything has been predetermined!" After saying that, Shaohao took one last look at the human race and flew to the human race's ancestral land in Shouyang Mountain.

After Zhuanxu became the new leader of the human race, he soon convened a grand court meeting.

After the court meeting began, Zhuanxu sat upright, scanning the ministers below with his sharp eyes.

At this time, Zhuanxu was full of ambitions.

He was accepted as a disciple by his master when he was very young. His master taught him how to practice and read, and took him to travel around the human race to understand the current situation of the human race.

Zhuanxu soon discovered that after the Jiuli Rebellion was quelled and the human race completed the unification of most tribes, various powerful people began to appear among the human race. They intended to split the human race again so as to take the opportunity to share in the human race's fortune.

His father had spent his entire life fighting against these powerful beings.

However, these people with great supernatural powers not only have profound cultivation themselves, but also have strong backers behind them.

Some are gods in heaven, some are disciples of saints’ sects, and some are even among the three thousand mortals who were preaching when Hongjun preached.

Shaohao was helpless against them and could only watch as these powerful masters gradually eroded the achievements of Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi and tried to split the human race.

Before Shaohao passed on the throne, he handed over the bamboo books he had written throughout his life to Zhuanxu. After reading them, Zhuanxu was deeply moved and determined to complete his father's unfinished work and safeguard the foundation of the human race.

Therefore, as soon as Zhuanxu ascended the throne, he convened a grand court meeting and issued his first order, which stated that no one belonging to the human race could be sacrificed at will, and if one wanted to worship those who believed in great supernatural powers of unknown origin, they could only worship the gods allowed by Zhuanxu.

As soon as this order was issued, many temples in human towns were demolished, and many powerful people who absorbed the incense and willpower of the human race for their cultivation were affected.

Among the many people with great supernatural powers, there was a strange beast. It suddenly appeared when Emperor Huangdi was on an inspection tour to the coast of the East China Sea. It could speak human language and understood the nature of all things. It is said that this strange beast talked with Emperor Huangdi for a long time. After Huangdi left, the beast guided the people many times and eliminated many bad apples for the human race.

Since then, there have been people among the human race who worship this strange beast.

However, this strange beast did not absorb the incense and wishes of the human race itself, but instead sent all of the incense and wishes of the human race to the demon world.

This strange beast was none other than Bai Ze, one of the demon chiefs of the demon clan. He was snow-white all over, with a tiger head, red hair, and a horned dragon body.

Bai Ze gathered the incense and wishes of the human race in order to help Taiyi take the last step as soon as possible.

About a Yuanhui ago, Donghuang Taiyi had already comprehended the complete great way of fire. He only lacked a huge amount of spiritual energy to complete the breakthrough and become a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

However, the concentration of innate spiritual energy in the demon world is far less than that in the prehistoric world, and Donghuang Taiyi has to guard the demon world and cannot leave, so he can only send some powerful monsters among the demon clan to collect spiritual energy.

Bai Ze accidentally discovered that the incense and vows of the human race can also be used to break through the realm. The worldly breath in the incense and vows has no effect on Donghuang Taiyi who possesses the true fire of the sun.

That is why Bai Ze appeared among the human race, helped them, and took the opportunity to collect incense and vows.

Once Zhuanxu gave the order, there was no way that the power from incense and vows could be absorbed. Fortunately, he was not the only one collecting spiritual energy. Moreover, he had collected a lot of power from incense and vows during this period of time, which might be enough to support Donghuang Taiyi's breakthrough.

Thinking of this, Bai Ze decided to go back to the demon world to take a look.

Just as Bai Ze was about to leave, the space around him was suddenly blocked. Then the space changed, and in a blink of an eye Bai Ze found himself in a palace.

Bai Ze's face changed drastically. After he took over the position of the Lord of the Animal Path of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, his cultivation speed was very fast. Now he has reached the peak of quasi-saint and his Taoism is approaching perfection. Except for the saints, Bai Ze is confident that few people in the prehistoric world can be his opponent.

But now he was brought here by incredible means, and he has no power to resist at all.

The person who caught him is undoubtedly a saint!

Bai Ze is the master of the animal realm and is as immortal as a saint, so he is not very afraid of the current situation.

He looked around and saw no one, so he cupped his hands and asked, "May I ask which saint made the move?"

"It's me!" As soon as Bai Ze finished speaking, a gentle female voice sounded in his ears.

Bai Ze was stunned when he heard this, and then he immediately bowed deeply: "Bai Ze greets the Queen."

"I am no longer the Queen of the demon race. You should still call me Lady Nuwa!"

"Yes, Goddess Nuwa, may I ask if you brought me here for something?" Bai Ze asked tentatively.

"Indeed, there is something wrong. Taiyi should be about to break through to the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, right?"

"Yes, now your majesty is only a little bit away from a breakthrough."

Nuwa nodded, raised her hand and pointed, sending a large ball of sealed chaotic energy to Bai Ze, along with a jade slip.

Before Bai Ze could ask, Nuwa waved her hand and sent Bai Ze out of the Nuwa Palace.
