Primordial Era: Reborn as a Qi Immortal, Steadily Cultivating

Chapter 19 The Demon Race Establishes the Heavenly Court

Within the Immortal Abode of Overturned Waves, time passes silently.

After obtaining that scroll, "The Secret of Returning to the Origin of All Waters".

Ma Yuan then used this place as his temporary retreat.

This ancient dragon cave, whose restrictions he had already broken, is located in a remote place deep in the East Sea, isolated from the outside world, making it undoubtedly the most ideal place for cultivation at present.

In a quiet room.

Ma Yuan sat cross-legged.

His mind was completely immersed in that profound and vast Water Element Orthodox Method.

He was not in a hurry to achieve results.

Instead, they carefully read and savored each word and sentence, trying to understand it with their hearts.

As the cultivation technique was activated, strands of incomparably pure innate Gui water essence began to slowly grow from his limbs, bones, and meridians.

This force is not like a surging river, but more like an inexhaustible trickle, gentle yet resilient.

Wherever it passed, Ma Yuan could clearly feel that his body, composed of malevolent and violent energy, was being cleansed from the inside out.

The evil fire that lingered deep within his foundation of cultivation, like a maggot clinging to his bone.

Under the soothing influence of this cool and refreshing Taoist energy, I became unusually calm and settled down.

It is no longer a harsh suppression, but a gentle reconciliation.

Water and fire complement each other, yin and yang are in balance.

Ma Yuan could even sense it.

That violent, evil fire power is being gradually dissolved by the power of the "Return of Ten Thousand Waters to the Origin Technique".

Ultimately, it transforms into pure energy that can be absorbed by himself, nourishing his foundation.

"This method is truly my greatest opportunity!"

Ma Yuan felt a surge of emotion, and his confidence in the future grew stronger.

Given enough time, he can fully master this method.

He will then be able to break free from the greatest constraint imposed by his origins and forge a perfect and flawless body of water and fire.

At that time, the path to immortality will be smooth, and the path to Taiyi will be within reach!

However, cultivation knows no time, and the primordial world does not keep track of years.

Ma Yuan was immersed in the joy of his daily progress in Taoism.

Unbeknownst to many, more than a hundred years have passed.

Just as he was preparing to press on and complete the next minor cycle of his cultivation technique.

A vast, majestic voice, filled with supreme dominance and imperial aura, spread from the distant heavens to the entire prehistoric world without warning!
This voice was different from the indifferent and ruthless voice of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, which was in accordance with the Dao.

It is filled with endless majesty and ambition.

He seemed like an unparalleled emperor who ruled over heaven and earth and reigned over all races.

He was proclaiming his will to the entire primordial world!

"I am Di Jun, the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan!"

"I now feel that the balance of Yin and Yang in Heaven and Earth is disrupted, and the marriages of all beings are out of order. In order to conform to the Way of Heaven and restore order, I will choose an auspicious day to marry my fellow Daoists Xihe and Changxi, the rulers of the Taiyin Star, as my Heavenly Empress!"

"With the sun and moon as matchmakers and the stars as betrothal gifts, we are united in a celestial marriage, witnessing the great Dao of Yin and Yang!"

"The day of the Heavenly Marriage is also the beginning of our Demon Clan's Heavenly Court officially ruling the primordial world and establishing supreme heavenly rules!"

"Three hundred years from now, the Heavenly Court will open its gates wide above the Thirty-Three Heavens, inviting all cultivators of the Golden Immortal realm and above from the primordial world, regardless of whether they are from our demon race, to come and witness this grand event!"

Di Jun's voice was like an imperial edict.

Every word contains undeniable power, echoing in the ears of every living being, lingering for a long time.

In an instant, the entire primordial world trembled!
Within the Immortal Abode in the Deep Sea, Ma Yuan was suddenly awakened from his meditative state.

A look of horror flashed in his eyes.

It's not because of the domineering nature of the voice, but because of the information it conveys!

"A heavenly marriage...the demon race's heavenly court...so fast?!"

Ma Yuan was greatly shocked and immediately began to calculate with his fingers. He originally thought that the confrontation between the Celestial Court and the Demon Court would last for at least several thousand or tens of thousands of years, until the contradictions between the two sides accumulated to an irreconcilable point before they would completely explode.

Unexpectedly, this demon emperor Di Jun was so talented and ambitious, with extraordinary courage!

Ma Yuan knew that a marriage by destiny was not a simple matter.

In the primordial world, Yin and Yang are the foundation of the Great Dao.

The Sun star represents Yang, and the Moon star represents Yin.

Emperor Jun married Xihe and Changxi.

It symbolizes the union of the sun and moon, and the convergence of yin and yang.

This action is in accordance with the general trend of the natural order.

Once the task is accomplished, Heaven will surely bestow boundless merit upon you!
With this merit from Heaven, the fortune of the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court will instantly surge to its peak.

Its legitimacy in ruling the prehistoric world will also be recognized by the Heavenly Dao, completely overshadowing the Purple Palace Immortal Court of the Eastern King Duke!
At that time, Di Jun will invite all the great powers of the prehistoric world to attend the ceremony, both to show off his martial prowess and to declare to the entire prehistoric world who is the only ruler of this world besides the sages!
"A brilliant tactic, a brilliant scheme!"

Ma Yuan sighed inwardly.

"After the Heavenly Marriage, the prelude to the great calamity of the Lich King will probably truly begin."

Ma Yuan had a clear understanding of the future, and its direction became increasingly clear in his mind.

A thought involuntarily arose in his mind.

"Go or not?"

Emperor Jun invited all the powerful beings above the Golden Immortal level in the primordial world.

Strictly speaking, I was also among those invited.

Normally, Ma Yuan would have refused without hesitation, choosing to remain hidden or return to Skull Mountain to cultivate in seclusion and remain detached from worldly affairs.

After all, the Thirty-Three Heavens, the Heavenly Court of the Demon Race, is the center of the future Great Calamity.

It is best to avoid getting involved in anything, even the slightest cause or effect.

But this time, Ma Yuan hesitated.

He has been in this world for over ten thousand years.

All that I see and hear comes from my fragmented memories of the afterlife.

He had never personally seen those legendary, powerful beings who dominated the primordial world, whether they were Di Jun, Tai Yi, Nuwa, Fuxi, or the Three Pure Ones and Zhunti.

And this time, it was a grand wedding ceremony.

This was undoubtedly the most concentrated appearance of the top figures in the entire prehistoric pyramid.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him to witness firsthand the charisma of these legendary figures, experience their strength firsthand, and gain insight into the true relationships between various factions.

Being prudent does not mean being blind and deaf, or being complacent and stagnant.

Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to survive a hundred battles.

If we can take this opportunity...

To gain a direct understanding of the top-tier combat power in this vast world.

It undoubtedly has enormous benefits for planning and strategizing for one's future.

After weighing the pros and cons for a long time, a look of determination finally flashed in Ma Yuan's eyes.

"Go! Must go!"

"But one can only be a guest, not a participant."

He made up his mind in an instant.

He could attend the ceremony, witness it, or remain a silent spectator.

But he would never have the slightest thought of submitting to the demon race's heavenly court.

He was well aware that the Demon Clan Heavenly Court, which was currently at the height of its fortune and seemed to be at its zenith, was destined to decline.

This is the inevitable trend of Heaven, and it is difficult to change.

"It's good to take a look, to see what this grandest event in the primordial world is like."
