Chapter 817

Hongjun, he 'split open'.

Achieved Hong and Jun!

The clash and collision of two eras tore the Dao Ancestor apart—or rather, he did it voluntarily. The former brave who defied the gods, bearing the mission bestowed by Human Dao, although ultimately failed, yet left a clear imprint in the mortal world that condensed at this moment, becoming 'Hong'.

Having mastered the Mandate of Heaven and turned the heavenly way, the imprint of coldly overlooking the world became 'Jun'.

Translation: "And the imprint that grasped the Mandate of Heaven, turned the Heavenly Dao, walked the path, coldly overlooking the world, became 'Jun'." Keep quotes.

Hong, although his dreams were shattered by the gods, can only be considered a petty king, not even detailed in the Honghuang Chronicles.

But at this moment when Human Dao confronts the past and redefines order, one cannot deny his past actions, and there is a righteous handover between him and Xuanyuan.

Therefore, he too can be the emperor of Human Dao, that is Emperor Hong!

And Jun, meanwhile, transcends all the Great Luo Heavenly Will, being the supreme central heaven, that is Jun Heaven! Emperor Hong!

Jun Heaven!

One thought becomes sage, one thought becomes heaven.

It is especially peculiar and strange, causing the gods who witnessed this scene to be horrified.

"Hongjun this person, we should view him dialectically......"

"Báizé's face kept changing, suddenly he picked up his pen and wrote silently, not knowing if someone was secretly holding a knife to his throat, gesturing, 'We must not demonize him…… In his youth, he too was a brave resistor of tyranny; we must clarify his contributions, and based on this, deeply reflect on his later changes——Why did a steadfast warrior ultimately become an evil ruler?'"

"Is it really the error of the times? That he received bad guidance?"

"Or perhaps it is a flaw in his spiritual cultivation, leading him astray?"

Spring and Autumn annals writing method, reversing cause and effect.

Báizé the Great Sage wore a bitter face, as if threatened.

He had indeed thought of seeking help, but…… now no one can help him!

The cheap superior——Xuanyuan's imprint, was indeed assisted, completed, and elevated by Hong! From this moment on, the relationship between 'Heaven' and 'Human' became subtle.

Beyond the irreconcilable opposition of 'human calculation not as good as heavenly calculation, man conquers heaven, my fate is mine not heaven's,' etc., there began to emerge mutual generation and fulfillment of the union of heaven and man! Heaven and man jointly bring forth, myriad transformations set foundation! Indeed.

In the era of Witches and Demons, the Dao Ancestor who supported the Heavenly Court was a great enemy of Human Dao.

But what good deeds did the Dao Ancestor Hongjun do, and what relation does that have with 'Emperor Hong'?

Comrade Emperor Hong, he is indeed a friend of the Holy Emperor Xuanyuan, a benevolent volunteer who adds bricks and tiles to the great dream of Human Dao's sovereign prosperity for all beings!

His addition, to the lineage of primordial divine civilization's Dao unity, stabbed in the ribs, a kidney‑blowing strike, almost brought about the most utter destruction and ruin!

Merit knows no greater!

No one understands primordial divine better than Hong——for he is originally a tool person crafted by the joint effort of the gods, used to death, having grasped too much crucial information!

When he joined the Human Dao Divine Dynasty, even Xuanyuan could not utter a 'no' at this moment.

No way.

Hong gave truly too much!

Although Xuanyuan clearly knows, there is no free lunch in this world.

Emperor Hong rushed over to 'unite', naturally having his considerations, in avoiding the disadvantage of being forced out by the Nether River Demon Ancestor, falling heaven to become human, facing Nüwa's assembly would suffer a great loss, so he took Human Dao to share the pressure.

After passing this hurdle, there will surely be conflict between them, an internal war of Human Dao, to determine who is the supreme leader of Human Dao's undertaking, the orthodoxy of heaven and earth!

But no matter what.

At this moment, the front lines…… still need to be unified.

Xuanyuan also needs this assistance.

"Whether in conquering the ancient August Emperor's Heavenly Court, or now Houtu's defiance of heaven, the gods' revival…… they must huddle together for warmth."

"Emperor Hong is just Emperor Hong."

The Human Emperor's stature instantly became weathered and ancient.

He was originally just an imprint; the true Supreme Emperor had long ago crossed eras, discussing the Dao with the August Emperor.

But now, with 'Hong's' investment, angel investing, the inheritance bestowed the Human Dao imprint from the Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation, using himself as sacrifice, instantly made him strong and real! Overlooking the mortal world, towering above the gods, observing the rise and fall of ages, quelling the turmoil of myriad ages.

"In the end, having done it once is enough."

"Rectify the root and clarify the source, who is primary and who secondary…… then it will be clear."

"And these, were all in my plan."

"As for now......"

The Human Emperor's eyes shone brilliant, two beams of immortal light pierced eternity, shattering all obstructions.

His gaze was sharp, immensely majestic, displaying authority, as if glaring at something.

Indeed so! Someone stirred up a heaven‑shaking wave of the era, twisting everything, reshaping all phenomena! Those extinct, fallen spirits seem to be in reincarnation, reviving from deathly stillness, rising from destruction! Houtu Primordial Witch pursued the light, seeking hope, to save all who fought for her to their last breath, collapsing in the ages! One after another holy phantoms manifested, the vast army of departed souls reflected…… Houtu exerted all her strength, reversing the outcome of life and death.

She indeed, by her own strength, retrieved all losses of the Wu Clan! Or rather, not as a Pangu body, nor as the status of Human Dao leader.

This violated the taboo, went against Human Dao's rules.

The Human Emperor sent a mental transmission, attempting to dissuade her.

But obviously, Houtu will not therefore give up.

"Do not say I did not warn you in advance!"

Emperor Hong issued the final ultimatum.

"The Supreme Emperor's Divine Dynasty buried the fortune of the Witches and Demons."

"Houtu…… Lady Nüwa, you now withdraw, humanity still respects you."

"Even if you have liquidated humanity's shares, the bond of incense remains."

"But take one more step, and it will be heaven‑overturning, earth‑shattering, with no chance of recovery!"

Emperor Hong said solemnly.

Across reincarnation, Houtu glanced at him, 'You think of tearing down the bridge after crossing the river, removing the ladder after climbing onto the roof?'

Even if I liquidated the human race's shares, the Wu Clan once, for the human race's cause, laid down their lives and shed blood, and even carved a path through mountains of knives and seas of fire.

This morning, I revived them and they have returned…… You actually want to sanction us?!

What a ruthless heart!

Houtu said coldly.

Humans, acknowledge the Wu Clan's merits, recognize the sacrifices and contributions made by this lineage over countless years. Dihong shook his head, "I'm not saying I want to block their return, making the ambitious of the world feel chilled."

Revival will certainly happen; we will rescue them and bring them back.

But we need a plan and order, within reasonable limits, to arrange their return one by one, easing the pressure on humanity and the times.

Dihong promised, "Their merits will never be forgotten; they will be remembered as ancestors by later generations, their spirit and will continuing in the blood, eternal through the ages."

In this world, there will be fewer lofty gods…… but ancestors will become gods, selflessly guiding the progress of those who come after.

But your approach, such a grand hand, disrupts history, alters the process, in the reincarnation of Honghuang heaven, earth, and all beings, this is a huge overdraft on reincarnation.

Don't forget…… you still have an inflation debt in the Underworld.

So…… please think twice before acting!

Don't let it come to the point where we meet with swords, what a tragedy!

Your lifelong fame destroyed in an instant, it's heartbreaking.

The Human Emperor sighed.

You…… threaten me? Houtu heard the implied meaning, angry she laughed, her hand's motion didn't stop, ten thousand troops trampling through time, the dead gods are about to return from stillness, "I never take threats!"

Dihong's gaze dimmed for a moment, as if in sorrowful lament, the dawn of peace shattered.

"If that's the case, then let us see the true skill beneath our hands." The Human Emperor whispered softly, all directions silent, eternity soundless.

"I respect you, honor you…… so, your revival of the gods, I'll consider it a favor I owe you."

After this matter, our debts will be settled.

He said this, and indeed never lifted a hand to interfere with Houtu's reincarnation and revival of the gods, allowing them to return.

This caused Houtu to needlessly guard against it for half a day, doing useless work.

This instead shows Houtu measuring a gentleman's belly with a petty heart.

"Creation and reincarnation remain your foundation, can support you in contending for Pangu, but……"

"If you govern the gods yet still lose to me…… then from now on, I will decide the affairs of this mortal world!"

"Upon the altar of the gods, your exalted seat exists."

"But regarding humanity, we Holy Emperors and Great Emperors have the final say!"

"Fair and impartial, not swayed by personal feelings!"

Xuanyuan and Houtu drew a line.

He had some complaints about Houtu's current performance, disregarding the bigger picture, for a bit of personal feeling, there's suspicion of disrupting order.

However, Nüwa is pure good, transforming reincarnation, opening the Underworld, even willing to forever guard the Netherland for this…… humanity keeps her achievements in mind, yet also does not wish to ruin her pursuit.

We can only wait until she fulfills her present wish, then discuss who wins, thereby determining who is the leader of the Human Dao, which side humanity will follow! "Excellent! Excellent!"

Houtu's expression showed no joy or anger, she simply said this, with a hint of emotion in her tone, "Indeed, your wings have hardened, you have your own ideas."

"This is quite good, having my former bearing…… but back then I drew a line with Fuxi, we contended hundreds of times, each ending in misery, I don't know if you will similarly repeat my fate."

"Hmm!"

"I almost forgot."

"Your true form rushed to the era's beginning, to arm-wrestle with August Emperor……"

"How was it?"

"Were you beaten until your head was swollen? Driven away to run everywhere?"

"Just this…… I think you'd better not fight on two fronts."

Houtu said lightly.

"If you are sensible and likable, be a bit more obedient, soften your stance, apologize, call me sister, I might be able to lend you a hand, so you don't get beaten to death by August Emperor."

"No need to trouble you, Mother." The Human Emperor said carefree, "Even if I alone face August Emperor, needing to devote some thought to balance the Heavenly Dao, I, Xuanyuan, am still invincible in the world!"

"Just bragging!" Houtu sneered, "I can't tell your strength, but your cheek is first-rate thick."

"Picking up a bargain, taking advantage of the Wu-Yao's exile, cleverly achieving a divine dynasty, cutting off the Wu-Yao's mandate, gaining favor from the Human Dao…… your luck is not bad."

"But right now!"

"I will let you know, how perilous this mortal world is, something a novice like you could never understand."

Houtu is full of confidence.

"Milady, you misspoke." Dihong smiled, his smile deep in meaning, "Sometimes, luck…… is also a kind of strength."

"Moreover……"

"I have gotten to this point today, not purely by luck…… I mainly rely on myself!"

——Human Dao! Add points!

Xuanyuan's spirit and will soared upward, this moment was too transcendent.

Striking across the ages, uniting Hongjun, it was like driving a deepest nail into the Dragon-Phoenix era.

The Nine-Headed Clan brought humanity to that ancient epoch, renewed the origin, achieved the five-colored peoples…… but it ultimately fell, buried by August Emperor, even its traces were seized.

Finally, one misstep leads to all steps wrong, pushed by August Emperor's Heavenly Court into the Wu-Yao era, needing to continue the epoch and achieve another imperial mandate! But, the Heavenly Dao invested, becoming a special force, brewing a chance for a counterstrike! Moreover, on the way August Emperor's Heavenly Court crossed over, they encountered a major problem——Xihuang was ambushed!

This is the clearest Jieyin, yet when Houtu went berserk she beat it, smashing it into the ages.

Without the lighthouse, even though August Emperor is overwhelmingly strong, it once suppressed the embodiment of the Human Dao, yet also left many variables of vitality.

Just as in the darkness, a splendid light shines, this is the true form imprint of the Yellow Emperor, who in confronting August Emperor suffered setbacks, retreated to adapt, chose to continue hope, creating a miracle.

"Everything is in the calculation."

Minghe attacked the Purple Dawn Palace, leaving Hongjun with no choice...

The relay of the Dao spanning two generations finally achieved convergence.

In the dire heavenly breakthrough, a glimmer of light appears.

However, this still needs a guiding catalyst.

Slicing through the vast void, Huangdi's radiance surged forward, wielding the immense power of humanity's Dao, and crashed into the greatest isolation barrier of the post-witch-demon era!

Once, born from the clash of the two Pangu, it cleanly severed the witch-demon era at its waist.

Now the permit has been activated, yet it is being continued!

The exiled giants of old can now return.

And the most important piece shall bear the mission, to have the sun and moon replace the heavens!

Jun!

The radiant insignia shot forth; it did not halt until it met a 'person'—no, rather, a 'heaven'.

—Jun Tian! Hongjun split open; one side attained Emperor Hong, while the other side's Jun Tian remained solitary, looking utterly miserable.

He was indeed miserable… After all, the Underworld River's Fallen Heaven let the human traces of Hong shine brightly, but as Heaven's 'Jun', he was exceedingly thin, as if a breeze could scatter him, just like the previous Human Emperor's seal.

But at this moment, Huangdi has arrived!

Repeating the affair of the Hong and Xuanyuan seals, financing and share expansion, angel investment! Jun calmly watched this scene; he possessed more heavenly nature, calm and transcendent.

Cross-holding shares: you have me in you, I have you in me?

Good!

What boldness!

Jun tilted his head slightly, accepting this inheritance: 'I'll accompany you in this game of chess!'

Let's see who ends up laughing last!

I need you to dispel Nüwa's intimidation; you need me to counter August Emperor's offensive… We each take what we need.

But since it's like this…

Jun flicked his finger lightly.

I need a cannon fodder.

No…

We all need this cannon fodder!

Fuxi needs it.

Nüwa needs it.

I need it.

Even humanity's Dao needs it!

Please invite…

Dragon Ancestor, fellow Daoist!
