Chapter 149

"For the next period of time, I'm afraid you will have endless trouble."

As he spoke, Diti took out six palm-sized jade bottles from his wide sleeves and handed them to Zhen Yuanzi and his companion.

"These are some pills for healing the soul and body, as well as for clearing the mind and waking the spirit; don't be polite with me, just take them."

"I hope you can use them reasonably and ascend to the peak of the Great Dao as soon as possible."

Afterward, before Zhen Yuanzi and his companion could say anything,

Diti turned into dots of starlight, dissolved into the void, and disappeared without a trace in an instant!

"Patriarch Bodhi, we will never forget your great kindness!"

Watching Diti's figure completely dissipate,

Zhen Yuanzi and his companion also recovered from their astonishment, knelt on the ground one after another, and bowed respectfully with solemn expressions!

"When we ascend to the realm of Hunyuan Da Luo,"

"we will definitely exhaust everything to thank you for your grace and help!"

In the endless void, watching this scene,

a hint of gratification and pity flashed in the depths of Diti's eyes and then disappeared.

If the person who obtained the Purple Qi of Hongmeng at the beginning had been Hong Yun, and not Zhen Yuanzi,

with the other party's temperament, he would definitely have taken him under his command.

It is a pity that there is no medicine for regret in everything.

Things have reached this point, and there is no point in saying more.

Being able to give the other party some compensation after taking the Earth Book

was already out of consideration for the fact that their brotherly love was genuine.

When they meet again next time, it will probably be the day Zhen Yuanzi ascends to Hunyuan Da Luo.

By then, if the other party is sensible and stays away,

then he might be able to spare him.

But if he insists on looking for death, he can only give him a quick end and let him go on his way early...

"It's about time."

"Houtu is about to comprehend everything."

"I should also ponder how to deal with the Earth Dao deities and deduce the cultivation method of the Earth Dao."

Thinking of this, Diti tore through space and time directly.

Using the Demon Realm as a stepping stone, he returned to the outside of the Netherworld Sea of Blood.

While refining the Earth Book, he was perfecting the Earth Dao deity plan in his heart, as well as how to allow creatures to cultivate with the help of the power of the earth veins.

At the boundary between the Chaos Heaven and the Chaos Void,

Hongjun, who had just returned from the Chaos Void and had not rested for a moment, also learned the news that the Earth Book had been snatched and that Zhen Yuanzi and his companion had hidden in the safe zone of the Star Treasure Pavilion, not daring to take another step out.

"I have only been away for a few hundred years, how could things have turned out like this?"

"If there is no Earth Book, what use do I have for Zhen Yuanzi?!"

"Even if I can knock open the door of the Earth Dao through him,"

"the crucial treasure has already fallen into the hands of others."

"In this way, the plan to steal the authority of the Earth Dao will be thousands of times more difficult than before!"

While secretly resenting in his heart that Zhen Yuanzi should not have handed over the Earth Book, Hongjun hurriedly searched for the whereabouts of the Earth Book.

However, how could Diti leave such a serious loophole?

Before he got the Earth Book, he had always used the Chaos Bead to cover his own cause and effect and heavenly secrets.

After getting his hands on the Earth Book, he went even further.

He directly used the Chaos Bead to hide it completely.

Now, let alone Hongjun deducing it himself,

even if he used the original owner of the Earth Book, Zhen Yuanzi, as the main body,

and deduced the whereabouts of the Earth Book according to the cause and effect of the past time and space,

it would be impossible to find any clues!

"Damn it, who exactly is Patriarch Bodhi of the Slanting Moon Three-Star Cave?"

"Why can't I find any relevant cause and effect at all?"

"Or is it that this person doesn't exist at all, and someone is playing tricks behind my back!"

Thinking of this, Hongjun immediately thought of Diti.

He hurriedly used the other party's cause and effect as a guide to deduce whether he had made any extreme moves during this period of time.

But as expected, he found nothing again.

For this, he could only consider himself unlucky!

He knew that the holder of the Purple Qi of Hongmeng might have problems recently,

yet he still left without leaving any backup plans and went directly to Yang Mei and Shichen.

Now it's good, the key to controlling the Earth Dao—the Earth Book—is lost!

"Things have reached this point, there is no point in saying more."

"Although the Earth Book has been taken by others, Zhen Yuanzi's method of proving the Dao and becoming a Saint is not just this one path."

"Creating a cultivation method based on earth veins, leading all living beings to clear the blockages of the earth veins, and alleviating the pressure on the earth can also obtain enough merit!"

It's just that proving the Dao and becoming a Saint through this method will ultimately not be completely recognized by the Earth Dao.

For him, it is equivalent to being unable to completely seize the authority of the Earth Dao.

At most, it is just influencing the Earth Dao through Zhen Yuanzi.

It is far less than the authority obtained after proving the Dao and becoming a Saint with the Earth Book as the foundation!

"To be on the safe side, the proving of the Dao and becoming a Saint of Taishang and others must also be accelerated."

"It's just that if Taishang, Yuanshi, Minghe, Jieyin, and Zhunti want to prove the Dao and become a Saint, they must wait until after Nüwa creates the human race."

"And currently, I don't even know the situation of Nüwa."

"What should I do..."

Just as Hongjun was full of worry,

Diti's expression at this moment could be described as radiant!

"Many thanks to Big Brother for protecting me, I have already understood my own destiny."

"I know how to balance life and death."

"Let heaven and earth no longer gradually move toward destruction because of the development and survival of living beings!"

Diti looked at Houtu, whose compassion for the earth permeated heaven and earth,

with a kind face and a calm heart, his eyes full of joy and gratification.

"Follow your heart in everything you do."

"Remember not to be reckless, and do not evolve reincarnation with your own body."

"It doesn't matter how much your cultivation improves, you must return safely."

"Many thanks to Big Brother for your teachings, Little Sister will definitely not live up to your expectations!"

After speaking, Houtu bowed to thank Diti, then turned and ascended to the peak of the nine heavens, solemnly announcing to heaven and earth!

"Father God is above! The Great Dao bears witness!"

"I am the direct descendant of Pangu's bloodline, one of the twelve Ancestral Witches of the Wu Clan, the Ancestral Witch of Earth, Houtu!"

"Because I feel that the Honghuang Tian Di is incomplete, living beings have nowhere to rely on after death, and the souls of the dead wander the world, with resentment that does not dissipate, harming the world's common people!"

"Causing filth to grow, resentment to accumulate, and evil spirits to permeate within the Netherworld Sea of Blood!"

"In order to allow ten thousand souls to rest in peace, heaven and earth to be clear, evil spirits to dissipate, and all living beings to have a place to return to after death, so that the Honghuang world can have an orderly cycle!"

"Today, I will use the Netherworld Sea of Blood as a foundation and my own essence blood as a guide to open up the Six Paths of Reincarnation!"

"Use the Heavenly God Path, the Human Path, and the Asura Path to appease the souls of the dead in heaven and earth, so that the good can be reincarnated!"

"Use the Animal Path, the Hungry Ghost Path, and the Hell Path to punish the resentful spirits of heaven and earth, so that the evil can pay for their sins!"

"Thereby completing the missing parts of the Honghuang Tian Di, so that souls can have a safe place to return to, can be reborn into reincarnation after death, the good can be rewarded, the evil can be punished, and the evil spirits of heaven and earth generated by the resentment of all spirits can be cleared!"

"From now on, dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth, souls enter reincarnation, and all spirits can be reborn!"

In the dark, the promise fell.

Diti took out thousands of drops of Pangu Jade Marrow from his arms, as well as a bottle of Hunyuan Blood Essence Pill refined from Three-Light Divine Water mixed with the essence of the Sea of Blood.

"Little Sister, catch!"
