Chapter 97: The person is the sword

In an instant, scenes from the past continuously surfaced in Tongtian's mind.

Yuanshi's reprimands, arrogance, and betrayal!

Taishang's indifference, hypocrisy, and deception!

These caused the anger and hatred in his heart to rise continuously.

His pupils were also gradually dyed a scarlet color by baleful energy, malice, and killing intent.

The moment his resentment soared into the sky, covering the firmament of the nine heavens.

The Demon Realm also responded to his will.

Boundless demonic Qi poured in frantically, and a demonic soul was instantly forged.

The origin of the Demon Realm descended, and his fleshly body was reshaped in an instant.

At the same time that the two merged perfectly.

Supreme demonic might obscured the sun and moon, extreme killing intent pressed across time and space, scarlet blood-baleful energy ravaged the world, and the wailing of vengeful spirits resounded throughout the universe!

The heaven and earth of the Demon Realm emitted music of celebration for his rebirth.

Tongtian, who had already become a cripple.

Began to see his aura climb frantically at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The whole person was like a peerless demonic sword in urgent need of sharpening, refusing none of the baleful energy, demonic Qi, and resentment pouring in!

His own cultivation also, under the infusion of boundless negative power.

Within a mere few hours.

Climbed from having nothing to the realm of Da Luo Perfection!

"Truly a natural-born seedling for practicing the demonic path."

Looking at Tongtian, who was surrounded by visions filling the sky.

And who seemed to have once again transformed into a peerless divine sword.

Luo Hou's eyes were already filled with appreciation and satisfaction.

"Indeed, a peerless posture rarely seen in the world."

"Let me add a little more foundation for him, so he may thoroughly ascend to the peak posture of heaven and earth."

As Diti nodded in approval, he took several drops of White Jade Divine Marrow from within his palm-world and threw them toward Tongtian.

He also sacrificed the fragments of the Creation Jade Disk, manifesting the Great Dao of the Sword, the Great Dao of Destruction, the Great Dao of Geng Metal, and the Great Dao of Slaughter contained within.

They circled around Tongtian's body!

"Only in this way can he thoroughly forge a peerless demonic sword that surpasses the world and slaughters the heavens!"

Watching Tongtian, who had swallowed the drops of White Jade Divine Marrow into his body.

Surrounded by the four Great Daos, he gradually turned into a scarlet blood cocoon, breathing in boundless demonic Qi, and fell into a state of enlightenment.

"Fellow Daoist, did you gain anything from this trip to investigate the fierce beast, White Tiger?"

Diti's eyes were also filled with appreciation.

However, an increase in foundation also meant an increase in gestation time.

Given Tongtian's current situation, it would take at least tens of thousands of years, or even a whole epoch, before he could break the seal and emerge.

He did not have that much free time.

To wait for the other party to be reborn and return.

"I went to investigate the situation this time."

"Hindered by the appearance of Tongtian and the other two."

"I did not conduct too much prying."

Upon hearing this, Luo Hou immediately stated what he had seen and heard.

"But when Tan Lang and Po Jun were fighting the fierce beast, White Tiger, I discovered that the other party's cultivation had already reached the perfection of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal."

"If it weren't for the fact that I didn't blow up all the Western earth veins at the end of the Dao-Demon struggle."

"At this moment, the other party's strength would definitely have reached the realm of the Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal!"

"This can be considered a reward received from an unintentional act."

"Then what do you plan to do next?"

As a flash of thought flickered in Diti's eyes, he asked Luo Hou again.

"With my current strength."

"Even if the other party has no reason to speak of and can only fight based on instinct."

"I do not have the ability to kill it."

Luo Hou's personality was indeed arrogant and conceited.

But he was not a reckless man without a brain.

Knowing he couldn't win and still forcing it.

That was no longer self-confidence, but pure suicide!

"To plot for the position of the Four Spirits White Tiger on its body."

"I still have to think of other ways."

Looking at Luo Hou's slightly troubled expression.

Diti immediately decided to give the other party a hint.

"Do you still remember what your essence is?"

"My essence?"

The out-of-the-blue question made Luo Hou pause slightly, unable to react for a moment to what the other party meant.

"Your current body is indeed the Seven Kill Star God."

"But your divine soul and consciousness are still the Demon Ancestor, Luo Hou, the founder of the demonic path, and the opener of the Demon Realm."

"And most importantly, the ancestor of the extraterrestrial heavenly demons!"

Seeing Luo Hou's blank face, a look of helplessness flashed in Diti's eyes.

"Born from the gathering of calamity-baleful Qi and the resentment of all spirits."

"A puppet controlled by the desire to kill."

"All are excellent seedlings for entering the demonic path."

"Why, now that the two have merged into one, are you at your wit's end?"

Once these words were spoken, Luo Hou, who had been confused.

Suddenly felt as if the clouds had parted to reveal the sun.

He instantly understood what Diti meant.

He himself was an extraterrestrial heavenly demon!

When it comes to possessing a fleshly body, looking at the entire Honghuang Tian Di, there is no existence that can be compared to him.

And the fierce beast, White Tiger, at this time, was purely a powerful fleshly container, with no soul or consciousness to dominate it.

He only needed to split off a wisp of his true spirit and, in the form of an extraterrestrial heavenly demon, invade the body of the fierce beast, White Tiger.

Continuously absorbing calamity-baleful Qi and the resentment of all spirits, gradually strengthening his own divine soul, and eroding the other party's fleshly body.

When it was completely refined into an external incarnation.

He would be able to swallow the origin, fate, and fleshly body of the fierce beast, White Tiger, into his own body without any effort!

There was no need to fight it to the death at all!

"It seems you have already thought of how to solve the fierce beast, White Tiger."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for the guidance!"

Having figured everything out, Luo Hou was full of joy and hurriedly bowed to thank Diti for his grace.

"If not for you clearing up my confusion."

"I fear I would still be stuck in the dead end of how to kill the White Tiger."

"You were just limited by your inherent thinking."

"That's why you didn't think of this point."

As he spoke, Diti took an ordinary-looking jade bead from within his palm-world and handed it to Luo Hou.

"This is the top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Heaven-Deceiving Bead."

"Refined using the origin of the Chaos Bead as a template, blended with the Dao rhyme of causality and the Dao rhyme of fate."

"Although it only contains forty innate restrictions within and has no ability for attack or defense."

"But it can obscure heavenly secrets and causality."

"As long as you don't actively provoke the attention of heaven and earth."

"Even if the fierce beast, White Tiger, recovers its intelligence and walks out of the Extreme West Earth Abyss, heaven and earth will not notice anything."

After listening to Diti's introduction of the Heaven-Deceiving Bead.

Luo Hou's heart was filled with even more admiration and awe for his ability to calculate without omission!

When he had figured out the first layer.

The other party was already standing on the third layer.

No wonder the other party could rule heaven and earth and be considered the orthodox successor by heaven and earth.

His little bit of brainpower couldn't even compare to one percent of the other party's!

Even if the other party told him all the plans.

Even if the other party told him all their schemes.

It would be fundamentally impossible for him to pull them off...

"The methods and the items have already been given to you."

"As for what to do next, I don't need to teach you anymore, do I?"

Regarding Diti's inquiry, Luo Hou hurriedly patted his chest, guaranteeing that he would definitely not let him down.

"After ten thousand years, I want to see results."

Having said that, Diti did not say anything more, tore through the space-time barrier between the Demon Realm and the Honghuang, and left this place.

However, he did not return to the Ziwei Emperor Star.

Instead, he headed toward the ancestral land of the Wu Clan: the Pangu Temple!
