Chapter 13

"What does Fellow Daoist Diti mean?"

Yuanfeng knew that such matters could not be rushed.

Today was just to point out her intentions to pave the way for future recruitment.

But she did not expect Diti to say such things.

"Do you think that if you do not sit on the throne of the supreme ruler, no one else can sit firmly?"

"That the Phoenix clan's plan to rule the world will eventually fail, lead to the backlash of heaven and earth, and from then on decline, falling from the position of hegemon!"

Looking at Yuanfeng, whose brows were slightly furrowed and in whose eyes a little anger was rising, Diti could not help but sigh in his heart.

She is indeed a good person.

It is just that, like the Ancestral Dragon and the Beginning Qilin, she has been blinded by the current false prosperity.

She can no longer see the true situation of heaven and earth.

And the consequences of leaking heavenly secrets are terrifying.

He did not want to bring trouble upon himself because of the Phoenix clan, with whom he had no ties upon their first meeting.

This caused him to be unable to openly reveal the causal origin of the Great Calamity of the three clans, and he could only hint at it with words.

But this was a bit too difficult for him.

Yuanfeng treated him with great respect and kindness, yet he started by hinting to her that if the Phoenix clan continued to expand, it would likely be exterminated.

Isn't this the standard mold of an ungrateful wretch?

If this were to spread later, who would dare to follow him!

"Fellow Daoist Yuanfeng, that is not what I meant."

"The current heaven and earth have just experienced the Great Calamity of the Fierce Beasts, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt."

"Killing and war are the things heaven and earth hate the most. If weapons are raised again easily, the resentment of all spirits and the baleful Qi will increase sharply."

"Presumably, heaven and earth will not be stingy in purging those who stick their heads out against the wind."

"Moreover, compared to a novice like me who has just stepped into Honghuang, the harm of karma and sin..."

"You, who personally participated in the war to crusade against Shen Ni and know the specific cause of his death, should be even clearer, right?"

Listening to Diti's counter-question, a look of contemplation flashed in the depths of Yuanfeng's eyes.

Since she could sit firmly as the leader of the Phoenix clan, besides her peak cultivation, her brain was also absolutely top-notch.

If it were not necessary, he would never have said these things to her suddenly.

But what exactly was the specific metaphor?

Could it be that the Phoenix clan really cannot rule Honghuang?

As long as they dare to ascend to the position of hegemon, is that the day of the Phoenix clan's destruction?

As thoughts flickered constantly in her eyes, a sense of urgency and lingering fear rose in Yuanfeng's heart.

If it were really as she thought.

She would undoubtedly be the culprit who sent the Phoenix clan to its doom!

"Many thanks for the reminder, Fellow Daoist Diti. I have matters to attend to, so I will not keep you any longer."

"Qingluan, take Fellow Daoist Diti and Fellow Daoist Wang Shu to the Guest Hall to rest. You must not neglect them."

Regardless of whether it was the same as her guess.

She must never gamble with the future of the Phoenix clan!

Yuanfeng ordered Qingluan to take Diti and his companion away, and then immediately summoned all the elders of the Phoenix clan.

She ordered a series of plans and policies: slowing down the pace of expansion, living in harmony with all clans, not starting disputes unless absolutely necessary, minimizing killing, doing more good deeds, etc.

Ensuring that the pace of expansion was slowed down without damaging the interests of the Phoenix clan.

To see if the situation Diti mentioned would occur after the Dragon and Qilin clans expanded their power to the hegemon level.

Then she would decide whether the future development of the Phoenix clan should stay in one corner or dominate Honghuang!

Just as Yuanfeng was gradually changing the Phoenix clan's development plan due to Diti's advice.

He himself, under Qingluan's sparkling gaze and increasingly respectful attitude, came to the Guest Hall and went into seclusion to study the Dragon Script, Phoenix Seal, and Qilin Pattern!

To create a textual inheritance with high universality that is applicable to both innate and acquired beings.

He needed to take the essence and discard the dross from the 129,600 types of textual inheritance, and then blend in the heavenly inscriptions inherited by the innate sacred beings.

Only then could he create a literary Dao inheritance that would annex most, if not all, of the merit of writing!

And to be absolutely sure, throughout the whole process, except for himself and Wang Shu, who could be absolutely trusted and roughly knew what he was doing.

Outsiders could not intervene.

This led to their workload being almost like looking for a needle in the ocean!

However, with the temptation of the merit of the literary Dao, even though they understood it was extremely difficult, neither of them slacked off in the slightest.

129,869 years!

A full two hundred years more than the number of a Yuan!

Diti and Wang Shu forgot to eat and sleep, delaying their cultivation.

Finally, they created the spiritual writing that adapts to all living things in heaven and earth, allows communication between innate and acquired beings, and inherits divine powers and Dao techniques!!

"3,650 common characters, 125,950 general characters, matching the number of the stars in the sky, and fulfilling the number of a Yuan of heaven and earth!"

"It is fitting that I should occupy all the merit of writing, and I will surely become the only ancestor of the literary Dao and the Supreme Master of heaven and earth!!"

Inside the Guest Hall, in front of a desk carved from the branches of the Zhou Tian Star Fruit Tree, Diti roared to the sky, venting the stifling Qi that had accumulated in his heart for so many years!

You must know that in later generations, he was famous for having a headache when going to school and wanting to sleep when reading books.

Now, making him face various characters for more than 100,000 years, deleting, modifying, and merging them every day.

The pressure he had to face can be imagined.

If it weren't for Wang Shu's company, and Yuanfeng coming to visit from time to time, bringing all kinds of heavenly treasures, spiritual fruits, and immortal tea.

He estimated that he would have quit long ago.

Fortunately, all the persistence had its rewards!

And the collection of 133,650 spiritual characters placed on the desk was his final masterpiece!

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Diti."

After more than 100,000 years of getting along, and the continuous development of the general trend of heaven and earth, Yuanfeng was also increasingly infatuated with Diti.

The look in her eyes when she looked at him was often filled with tenderness and kindness.

Wang Shu was not blind to this, and naturally understood what the other party was thinking.

But she did not point it out, nor did she stop it.

As the ruler destined to rule Honghuang and the Emperor of the stars in the sky, Diti could not be bound by one person.

She had already understood this in her heart.

As long as Diti was well, that was enough.

As for other things, let them take their natural course.

"If it weren't for the support of Fellow Daoist Yuanfeng and Fellow Daoist Wang Shu, I would not have been able to complete this feat."

"If we are to talk about thanks, I should be the one thanking you."

Diti smiled and nodded in response to the two.

His hands, however, did not stop for a moment.

He continuously took out a large number of heavenly treasures, spiritual minerals, strange stones, and innate divine water from the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

These were all kinds of harvests he had collected while traveling through Honghuang.

Although they were not as good as the initial Five-Needle Pine, they were all good innate items.

Finally, he took out a branch of the Zhou Tian Star Fruit Tree and some needles peeled from the Five-Needle Pine.

Only then did Diti stop his movements.

Looking at the spiritual materials of heaven and earth that almost covered the surrounding thousand feet, a look of excitement rose in his eyes.

Ziwei Heavenly Fire appeared in his palm, and under the control of his divine sense, a large number of spiritual materials were melted by him.

Finally, after three thousand years of refining, four acquired supreme treasures radiating treasure light appeared in the Guest Hall!

"Five-Element Inkstone, Zhou Tian Ink, Star Pen, Spiritual Writing Book; the four treasures of the study are all complete."
