Chapter 84
Facing Rahu's threat, Zhu Qingyun did not yield; instead, he threatened back!
'You dare move my disciple; I would rather fall from the position of Human Dao Patriarch and Master of Fortune, but I will absolutely annihilate your demon realm completely!'
'I walk the way of the world; I have this method!'
The demon realm is Rahu's opportunity to prove the Dao; he knows Zhu Qingyun walks the way of the world, and his understanding of it is far deeper than Rahu's own.
Therefore, Rahu dare not gamble on whether Zhu Qingyun's words are true.
The thunder attack that had been secretly hanging above Fuxi's head was withdrawn by him, and he spoke somewhat resentfully.
'Heavenly Fortune Dao friend, I previously discussed the Great Dao with you; your disciple is my dear grand-disciple, how could I lay hands on them?'
'In that case, let me take Ji Du's corpse, and may I impart my understanding of the Great Dao to my grand-disciples?'
Although Ji Du's primordial spirit has been annihilated, his flesh contains the origin of the demon realm; if his corpse is brought back to the demon realm, Rahu can further assist with methods.
This can allow his true spirit to revive, the fire of his primordial spirit rekindled!
This is the same principle as the primordial sages entrusting their true spirits to the Heavenly Dao.
Even if slain, paying a certain price allows rebirth within the Heavenly Dao! Although the demon realm is inferior to the primordial world, Ji Du's flesh contains the demon realm's origin; as long as the demon realm endures, he does not perish! 'My disciple, I will personally impart the Great Dao; no need for you to trouble yourself!'
Facing Rahu's promise, Zhu Qingyun responded indifferently.
'As for wanting to take Ji Du's corpse? Sure, hand over the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus!'
With Zhu Qingyun's vision, it is naturally apparent that Ji Du's corpse contains the demon realm's origin; he has long wished to gather the five great lotus platforms for his elder brother.
'Impossible!'
Rahu refused without even thinking.
Although the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus is merely a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, it contains Rahu's insights into the demonic Dao.
Furthermore, it is the core eye of a great formation; thus he naturally does not wish to part with the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus.
'Dao friend, could we change the condition?'
'Fine, then the Four Swords of Execution plus the Execution Formation Diagram!'
Although Zhu Qingyun also commands the Execution Sword Formation, he has always set it up using his own and his two elder brothers' innate supreme treasures.
If he could obtain the Four Execution Swords and the diagram, the power could be increased even further! 'No, no!'
This time Rahu refused more decisively; the Four Execution Swords and the diagram are his treasures for proving the Dao, more important to him than the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus, so he certainly could not agree.
'This won't work, that won't work either; is this all the sincerity you have, Dao friend?'
Zhu Qingyun immediately grew impatient; instantly, the power of the Human Dao coalesced into a grindstone, acting upon Ji Du's corpse!
'Dao friend, you cannot!'
Rahu hastily shouted, and the next moment he gritted his teeth.
'I will give you the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus!'
Making this decision, Rahu felt his heart dripping blood.
But unexpectedly, Zhu Qingyun pushed further the next moment.
'Just now the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus was enough; now I have changed my mind, adding the God-Slaying Spear!'
'Good! I'll give it to you!'
Rahu hesitated a moment, then made a great resolve! Ji Du is the manifestation of Rahu's demonic Dao; he intends to cultivate Ji Du to prove the Mixed Yuan Grand Golden Immortal, creating the supreme law of demonic Dao! Now Rahu's demonic Dao is actually merely a fusion of the Dao of destruction and slaughter.
Therefore, aside from the treasures for proving the Dao and those involving himself, Rahu could only grudgingly accept the price of other spiritual treasures.
Treasures lost can be sought again or seized, but if Ji Du's flesh is gone, it is truly gone! After all, there is no second chance like the Dragon-Han Great Calamity to gather so many corpses to refine the origin.
Although Rahu still had other spiritual treasures, they were of little use to Zhu Qingyun; thus Zhu Qingyun, seeing the situation favorable, withdrew the Human Dao power from Ji Du's body.
The next moment, Rahu erased his own primordial spirit imprint from the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus and the God-Slaying Spear, then flung them toward Fuxi's direction.
Then he extended his large hand, seized Ji Du's corpse, and fled into the demon realm. Zhu Qingyun stored away the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus; although the God-Slaying Spear is also an innate supreme treasure, he paid it no heed.
Instead, he threw it to Donghuang Taiyi.
'Taiyi, as my disciple, aside from a Chaos Bell you truly have no decent spiritual treasure; this God-Slaying Spear I give to you!'
Donghuang Taiyi instinctively caught the thrown God-Slaying Spear, looking bewildered.
'No, Master, this is an innate supreme treasure!'
This is the limit of spiritual treasures that the primordial world can contain!
You just casually tossed it to me? Moreover, why do I see no envy in the eyes of Senior Brother Aotian and Senior Brother Fuxi? He, having just joined the All-Heavens Island faction, obviously does not know how wealthy All-Heavens Island is.
After all, there is so much that the Three Lights Divine Water cannot be used up, and Qiankun still possesses an innate supreme treasure capable of reversing the innate, the Qiankun Cauldron.
Just look at Aotian, Fuxi, or even the already Dao-proved Nüwa—everywhere on their bodies, even the ornaments on their clothing, are top-grade innate spiritual treasures.
'Hongjun Dao friend, I know you do not wish for us Mixed Yuan Grand Golden Immortals to take action.'
'But if you do not pay a price, I fear I and the two Bear Palms and Nüwa's disciples will find it hard to agree!'
Hongjun fell silent for a moment, and his voice also came from the celestial realm.
'I, joining forces with Dao friend Rahu, need not fear your All-Heavens Island!'
What Hongjun said was true, but he did not expect that Rahu had just lost his treasures and was feeling displeased.
'If Dao friend would shed a bit of blood, I would feel unbalanced; I would rather let the primordial world be governed by Dao friend Tian Yun!'
Upon hearing Rahu's backstabbing words, Hongjun's face instantly darkened.
'Dao friend, if you want something, just say it straight!'
Forget it; just consider it spending money to avert disaster.
'The Purple Aurora Palace, the Pangu Banner, and moreover, Dao friend, you must swear to my consort that you will not again use methods to manifest!'
Having suffered a loss once, Zhu Qingyun became clever; Hongjun's spiritual treasures are not so easily taken.
This old brat's means of manifesting treasures are truly uncanny, making them impossible to guard against.
'The Pangu Banner is fine; the Purple Aurora Palace is impossible!'
The Pangu Banner is irrelevant, but the Purple Dawn Palace is his Dao Palace; although it's not as much a treasure for proving the Dao as the Creation Jade Disc, it is also extremely important to him.
Then, fellow Daoist, just wait to collect the disciples' corpses!
Fellow Daoist, feel free to try; I can also act against your disciples! I likewise walk the way of the world; you cannot destroy my immortal realm!
Hongjun does not have attachments like Rahu does.
The immortals of the Mysterious Gate were slaughtered; Hongjun's cultivation will definitely drop a heavenly level, but he can still remain in the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm.
With the immortal realm as a reliance, he can cultivate back again.
You think I'm giving you face? I cannot destroy the immortal realm, but I absolutely have the ability to seal it!
If the immortal realm is sealed, I'd like to see how you still spread the Dao in the Primeval Wilderness!
Zhu Qingyun said this without blushing or his heart racing.
Zhu Qingyun had long guessed that the speed of Hongjun's cultivation increase was related to his preaching in the Primeval Wilderness Heaven and Earth; as for the immortal realm, he obviously lacks the ability to seal it for now.
But it's just boasting; anyway, Hongjun can't fathom his confidence.
If he had the ability to seal the immortal realm, would Zhu Qingyun still indulge Hongjun? "Petty person!"
Hongjun shouted in anger, but in the end he still didn't dare to bet on whether Zhu Qingyun could seal the immortal realm, and handed over the Purple Dawn Palace.
