Chapter 259: Evil Thought Body, Secrets of the Difu, and Yinming Fujun

~8 min read 1,579 words

Hearing the Renhuang's reply, Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow.

"Has the fellow Daoist not yet severed the Heavenly Heart of Huangtian Shenmu?"

Although the Heavenly Abyss of Daheishan from back then appeared several hundred thousand years ago in the current world, it was not certain which era's Renhuang was responsible for it.

And if it were the Renhuang who had already met him at that time, he would not have said, "Just call me fellow Daoist."

The Renhuang nodded, then shook his head, "After attaining the status of Immortal King, one transcends from ancient history, but in essence, no matter which era I am from, I am the same.

It is just that the power of time is truly profound; even an Immortal King cannot fully see through it."

Qin Jiang felt a sense of understanding and walked over to the stone table to sit down.

He understood the Renhuang's meaning; that is to say, the Renhuang at this moment was indeed the Renhuang who had severed the Heavenly Heart of Huangtian Shenmu at Daheishan.

It was just that due to the influence of the power of time, in the current Renhuang's memory, there was still a barrier regarding the trip to Daheishan; this barrier would only dissipate when the time flow he was in reached that period of years.

Or, one could view this influence as fate; for an Immortal King of the present age, the future is unfathomable, but for an Immortal King of the future, it is a fact that has already occurred.

Under mutual influence, an Immortal King of the present age will form a premonition of the future; the stronger the strength, the clearer the premonition.

An ancient Immortal King like the Renhuang is even powerful enough to foresee the details of a certain node in the future.

For an Immortal King of the present age, these foreseen details are the future that will inevitably happen.

Of course, the greater the influence the foreseen future has on the Time River, the blurrier the foreseen image will be.

Thinking of this, he could not help but marvel at the power of time; even an Immortal King who has jumped out of the Time River is still affected by time.

"I do not yet know why you invited me here, fellow Daoist?" he asked.

"Hehe, it is not a major matter. Yesterday, the Blood Moon appeared in the world, and through my deductions, I caught a glimpse of a corner of the future." The Renhuang spoke, picking up a teacup and taking a light sip.

"What kind of future? Is it in my era?" Qin Jiang asked.

This was important; he had a premonition that the time node he was in was a very important moment.

"Yes, about a year after your current time, the Hell Gate will open, and power at the Immortal King level will descend into the world."

The Renhuang said while holding the teacup, the rising steam slightly obscuring his face.

"Immortal King level power? Are you talking about Huangtian Shenmu? Or that thing suppressed under the Xuanwu Jiang? Or are you referring to that rotting corpse in the Jiuyao Xianwang Yiji?"

Qin Jiang asked, but he was not actually nervous.

With his current strength, as long as it was not an Immortal King in a perfect state, he had some confidence in being able to suppress it.

However, it would be a bit late to suppress them only after they revived; he would set up a Heavenly Array to seal them off after he returned.

By then, even if a true Immortal King revived, they might not be able to stir up any waves.

Hearing Qin Jiang's question, the Renhuang coughed twice and took a sip of tea.

"Although the Yu Kingdom was wiped out by Huangtian Shenmu, I think you must also know about that era when demonic Qi shrouded Shenzhou, fellow Daoist?" he said.

"Naturally," Qin Jiang said.

"Then I suppose you must also have some understanding of the essence of that demonic Qi?" the Renhuang asked.

Upon hearing this, Qin Jiang looked at him, "That demonic Qi seems to contain a trace of the origin power of heaven and earth; rather than a disaster, it is more like a power that should have existed between heaven and earth."

"Indeed, the root of that demonic Qi is the resentment of all spirits in the Difu, which was later infected by the opportunity of the Killing Tribulation in the human world, thus forming a source of demonic Qi that ravaged the human world," the Renhuang explained.

Qin Jiang looked at him quietly, "If you have something to say, Renhuang, please speak plainly." "Cough, cough, this... very well! A hundred years from now, I will initiate the human Killing Tribulation, and the opportunity of the Killing Tribulation will gradually draw the resentment of all spirits from the Difu to surge into the human world.

Then it will form the source of demonic Qi, merging the resentment of all spirits from the Difu with the killing aura of the human world to erode the human world as demonic Qi."

Having said this, the Renhuang put down the teacup, "Of course, I will take action to resolve the source of demonic Qi in this era.

I will use an E'nianshen of mine to inhabit it, and then suppress it in the Mingluo Diyu, which is the Mingluo Dayu of your era.

But with my ability, I cannot completely eliminate the demonic Qi, so during the years of suppression, the power of the demonic Qi source, or rather the power of my E'nianshen, will become stronger and stronger.

Until it is comparable to a true Immortal King."

"So, you want me to resolve it?" Qin Jiang asked.

"Only you can resolve it. Originally, in my calculations, the source of demonic Qi would be suppressed for 8.88 million years; at that time, a Demonic Dao Immortal King would descend to the world, sufficient to resolve this calamity.

But some accidents occurred; Huangtian Shenmu revived, and relying on the authority of the Earth Dao, she seized the control of that portion belonging to the resentment of all spirits in the Difu, and subsequently triggered the demonic Qi to surge into the human world.

It was because of this that I took action to sever her Heavenly Heart," the Renhuang said.

"So that's how it is; in other words, one year later, the Hell Gate will open, and your E'nianshen will emerge, possessing power comparable to an Immortal King," Qin Jiang said.

The Renhuang smiled somewhat awkwardly, "There are also the remains of Huangtian Shenmu and that rotting corpse in the Mingluo Dayu."

"What is the origin of that rotting corpse?" Qin Jiang asked.

"That is a long story, involving the Nine Luminaries Immortal King and the formation of the fifteen hells."

As he spoke, the Renhuang waved his hand, and a map appeared, dividing into fifteen regions.

"A long time ago, in the Ancient Era shrouded in mist, the Difu was still a chaotic void.

Later, the Earth Dao derived and divided its own authority into fifteen parts, thus giving birth to fifteen Didao Xiantian Shengsheng, each of whom was an existence comparable to an Immortal King.

Afterward, these fifteen Didao Xiantian Shengsheng successively opened up the fifteen hells; Huangtian Shenmu was precisely the founder of the Huangling Diyu.

And the founder of the Mingluo Diyu, named Yinming Fujun, was the strongest among the fifteen Didao Xiantian Shengsheng at that time."

"Didao Xiantian Shengsheng? Then are there Heavenly Dao Xiantian Shengsheng or Human Dao Xiantian Shengsheng?" Qin Jiang asked.

"There are Heavenly Dao ones, but no Human Dao ones. Xiantian Shengsheng are not born naturally but are endowed by the earth; the Human Dao is not among them, so there are none."

Having said this, the Renhuang looked at Qin Jiang, "However, although there are no Xiantian Shengsheng in the Human Dao, the Immortal Kings throughout history cannot be said to be anything other than another kind of Xiantian Shengsheng in a sense."

Qin Jiang nodded slightly, then as if remembering something, he condensed a ball of green light in his palm with the power of the Green Emperor Longevity Record.

"Do you recognize this power, fellow Daoist?"

The Renhuang looked at the green light in Qin Jiang's palm, contemplation appearing in his eyes; after a breath, he spoke somewhat uncertainly, "This power is indeed extremely similar to the power of Qingdi. However, it seems to be mixed with some other power.

The power of Qingdi is the supreme life force in the world, but the power contained in this green light implies an indescribable alien power."

He looked at the green light in front of him with some apprehension; he had a thought that even he himself dared not believe, which was that the alien power contained within this green light seemed capable of affecting him.

But how could this be possible?

It was not that he was boasting; ever since he ascended to the Immortal King Supreme Realm, he had become an existence nearly at the end of the Immortal King path.

Even if Qingdi were reborn, he would only be comparable to the late stage of the Immortal King realm and would absolutely not be his match; how could this strange power within the ball of green light possibly affect him?

"Qingdi? What kind of sacred being is that?"
