Chapter 221
A red sun was swallowed into his belly, and the operation of the Tai Yang holy power surged instantly, suppressing the Tai Yin holy power and delaying the Primordial Saint's turning into a demon.
"Wake up!"
Great Sage Gan Lun also took the opportunity to let out a dragon roar, loosening the shackles on the Human Demon's body, allowing the dragon-shaped Dao patterns to rise into the air one by one.
"Crack..."
Crisp sounds rang out one after another, and the red divine chain slowly loosened. A trace of clarity appeared in the eyes of the Human Demon, Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi, and the violent aura of his whole body slowly converged at this moment.
"Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi... you succeeded!"
Great Sage Gan Lun shouted, unable to help but take a step back in fear. Looking back and seeing Gai Gai Jiuyou, he dispelled some of his fear and did not run away.
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi was truly too strong. In the Primordial years, when strong men were as numerous as clouds and Ancestral Kings stood in great numbers, he could roam the world. He had killed many Ancestral Kings, among whom was even a Great Sage, and he was almost about to step onto the path of proving the Dao.
It was only because he was a god by day and a demon by night that he was a Great Sage who could survive after cultivating both Yin and Yang.
Great Sages of all races came out together, and the Wan Long Chao even used Extreme Dao Imperial Weapons. Under the joint efforts of Great Sage Gan Lun and his father, who was only a hair's breadth away from being a Quasi-Emperor, they barely managed to suppress Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi.
That was also at dusk, when the Human Demon's mind was unclear and he was at his weakest. If he were in his prime, no Great Sage would dare to provoke him.
If he was like this while mad, what kind of Dao fruit would he have if he succeeded?
At the very least, he would be a Quasi-Emperor!
"That is not the case..." the Human Demon said very crisply and clearly: "It is just suppression. If this continues for a long time, I will sooner or later go into qi deviation."
Yin and Yang balanced, crowned Emperor in the world; only when Tai Yang and Tai Yin are fused is it possible to evolve the Chaos Great Dao.
If one uses Tai Yang to suppress Tai Yin, something will go wrong sooner or later.
Tai Yin holy power is the extremely Yin power inherited from the beginning of heaven and earth; its killing intent is infinite, it cannot be controlled, and it is almost impossible to refine.
"Either die, or switch cultivation."
Great Sage Gan Lun was somewhat fortunate, but also disappointed. He shook his head and said: "Yin and Yang balanced is just a legend. How many Great Sages have died in the Primordial era? There was no lack of people who could become Quasi-Emperors, but they all fell on the road."
Before Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi, there were only two paths: either go into qi deviation, or wash away the Tai Yin and transform into a Tai Yang Great Sage, focusing on the Tai Yang Ancient Scripture, and subsequently potentially becoming a Tai Yang Quasi-Emperor.
"If one hears the Dao in the morning, one can die in the evening."
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi said with a calm expression. He was unwilling to give up this path. If he only cultivated Tai Yang or Tai Yin, he could have cultivated into a Quasi-Emperor in the Primordial era, and then his life would have stopped there.
Taiji refers to the time before heaven and earth were separated, before Yin and Yang were opened, when the primordial energy was mixed into one; this is also Tai Chu and Tai Yi.
He took Tai Yi as his title, so he was naturally ambitious and would not give up halfway. The Human Demon pursued the proving of the Dao.
"Throughout the ages, there has never been such a person!"
"Yin and Yang balanced, crowned Emperor in the world—perhaps it is just a rumor. Neither the Tai Yang Holy Emperor nor the Tai Yin Human Emperor achieved it."
Great Sage Gan Lun retorted: "Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi, do not persist anymore. Hand over the two great immortal scriptures, and your account with the Wan Long Chao will be wiped clean. We will let you leave."
"If you don't believe it, why keep me alive instead of killing me?" Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi suddenly raised his head, and a trace of mockery appeared on the face of this primitive Saint: "Little Di Que also wanted to cultivate both Yin and Yang."
Great Sage Gan Lun's father was brilliant and talented. Back then, he was known as Little Di Que and could almost break into the Quasi-Emperor realm, but he refused to break through, wanting to capture Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi, view the two great immortal scriptures, and then step onto the path of becoming an Emperor. He must have harbored some thoughts.
Great Sage and Quasi-Emperor seem like two realms, but in reality, they are two dimensions.
A Great Sage is still within the scope of the system of using the body as a seed; they are learners and latecomers.
A Quasi-Emperor is someone on the road to becoming a Supreme, who must create their own Dao; they are creators and pioneers.
An Ancient Emperor's son dares to use a Great Sage as a protector, but no Ancient Emperor has ever left a Quasi-Emperor protector for their offspring.
Because a Quasi-Emperor possesses their own Dao and is full of endless miracles; who knows, one day while protecting, the protector might become the one proving the Dao, blocking the Ancient Emperor's son's path.
"It was to heal my father!" Great Sage Gan Lun said angrily: "Human Demon, this is a dead end. I will not walk it, and my father will not walk it either."
Great Sage Gan Lun's father, back then, considering himself a half-step Quasi-Emperor, wanted to capture Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi, but due to carelessness, he was hit by the two holy powers of Tai Yin and Tai Yang, and to this day he is still struggling and unable to break through.
If he could get the two great immortal scriptures, he could get rid of this state.
"He will walk it."
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi was very calm and very certain. Then he stood up and bowed to Gai Gai Jiuyou, and in order to express his gratitude for the rescue, he would present the two great immortal scriptures.
As for whether Gai Gai Jiuyou would pass the two great immortal scriptures to the Wan Long Chao, that had nothing to do with him.
Great Sage Gan Lun watched this scene, his teeth itching with anger. But the Dragon Maiden was very calm. If the two sides could truly form an alliance, and if her father were still alive, obtaining the immortal scriptures would not be a problem.
Not only the two Dragon-race members, but the Black Emperor, the Holy Prince, and those non-human creatures all went out.
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi preached the Dao, only to human creatures.
Ye Fan was a Holy Body, and his human identity was beyond doubt. After looking at Little Nan Nan, Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi's gaze stared fixedly at Duan De, refusing to move away.
"Old man, I am a genuine human."
Duan De was almost dripping with cold sweat and hurriedly waved his hand: "I am not some alien race."
"You are human, but I feel you look somewhat familiar." Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi asked in confusion.
"I have a common face; it's normal to look familiar." Duan De prepared to muddle through and laughed: "It means we are fated."
"Indeed fated."
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi nodded meaningfully, then looked toward Gai Gai Jiuyou, asking this human powerhouse if he knew Duan De's identity.
Gai Gai Jiuyou gave an affirmative answer. When joining the Immortal Alliance, Lin Xian had revealed some information to him.
"If you join the Immortal Alliance, Lin Xian will tell you the truth." Gai Gai Jiuyou said.
"Dragon blood, human blood..." Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi looked at Lin Xian, the little dragon-man with dragon horns on his head, and his expression became even stranger. It was not surprise at Lin Xian's intelligence, but he said: "Actually, back then, I saw a person who cultivated both Yin and Yang, and it was related to your bloodline."
"There are many people related to my bloodline."
Lin Xian muttered inwardly. He was now a man who possessed the Imperial Imprints of the Tian Xuan, Yao Guang, Ji family, Jiang family, Within Yaochi, and Green Emperor.
This physical body originated from Earth; his ancestors were either the Three Sovereigns or the Five Emperors.
"Did he succeed?" Gai Gai Jiuyou pondered and asked.
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi shook his head and said very confusedly: "I don't know either. Later on, I didn't see him in the Primordial era. Perhaps he was sealed in Divine Source and lived to later generations."
"However, he cultivated both Yin and Yang very smoothly; it seems he carried Yin and Yang and did not erupt into conflict."
In the Desolate Ancient era, heaven and earth were dry, and Divine Source liquid was hard to come by; only Ancient Emperors could refine it to seal living beings, allowing them to remain immortal for hundreds of thousands of years.
The environment of the Primordial era was more favorable than that of the Desolate Ancient era, approaching the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths of the Immortal Ancient era, and it had natural Divine Source liquid, which is why so many Saints and Ancestral Kings of the Primordial myriad races were sealed.
"What was the name of that person who cultivated both Yin and Yang?" Lin Xian asked curiously. If such a person really existed, it would be impossible for later generations not to have his name.
"He called himself Emperor Fuxi, and there was a little girl beside him called Nuwa."
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi said calmly: "His aura is very ancient; he should have sealed himself with Divine Source liquid more than once, so I speculate that he did not pass away in the Primordial era."
"Emperor Fuxi!"
"Emperor Emperor Fuxi!"
Everyone at the scene was stunned again. The people from Earth were even more dumbfounded. Emperor Fuxi, Nuwa, Dongfang Taiyi—meeting again in the Primordial era, it sounded so much like a myth or legend, or perhaps they were already in the midst of a myth.
"Emperor Fuxi, Yin and Yang, human head and dragon body as the Dao..."
Lin Xian muttered, countless inspirations flashing in his mind. Vaguely, it seemed he was about to grasp something, but he never had a clue.
In legend, Emperor Emperor Fuxi looked up to observe the phenomena in the sky and looked down to observe the laws of the earth, observing the patterns of birds and beasts and the suitability of the earth, taking from his own body near and from things far away. Thus, he began to create the Eight Trigrams to communicate the virtue of the gods and to classify the feelings of all things.
Now it seems that it started with Yin and Yang; the Two Forms produce the Four Symbols, and the Four Symbols produce the Eight Trigrams.
This formed the Eight Trigrams Great Dao belonging uniquely to Emperor Emperor Fuxi.
But in it... it seems something was missing.
At this time, Ye Fan sighed and said: "The order and reverse of Yin and Yang are difficult to exhaust; the two solstices return to the Nine Palaces. If one can understand the principle of Yin and Yang, heaven and earth are all in one palm."
Lin Xian suddenly trembled, brilliance splashing in his eyes, and he shouted: "That's it, it's missing the 'one'! This is the Later Heaven Eight Trigrams; what Emperor Emperor Fuxi created was the Pre-Heaven Eight Trigrams!"
Taiji moves to produce Yang, and stillness produces Yin; this is the production of the Two Forms. One Yin and one Yang are the Two Forms.
The Later Heaven Eight Trigrams only involve the evolution of the Four Symbols and Eight Trigrams, starting with Yin and Yang.
Since it is the Pre-Heaven Eight Trigrams, it starts with Taiji. Where does Taiji come from?
Emperor Emperor Fuxi still had a previous life!
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi said he was not a Primordial person and his origins were more ancient; that could only be an existence from the Mythological era.
"The old man has great fortune, meeting an Ancient Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun..."
Lin Xian looked deeply at Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi and said slowly. This Great Sage being able to cultivate both Yin and Yang was definitely not a coincidence; occasionally it could be explained.
"Ancient Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun, Emperor Emperor Fuxi is also an Emperor's corpse that gained consciousness..."
Ye Fan suddenly realized, as if he had grasped something. The Yellow Emperor is the Void Great Emperor, the Flame Emperor is the Heng Yu Great Emperor, so what about Emperor Emperor Fuxi?
The origins of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are all unusual, suspected to be Emperor corpses that gained consciousness.
Dongfang Dongfang Taiyi personally admitted that Emperor Fuxi was not a creature of the Primordial era.
Then Emperor Emperor Fuxi was an Ancient Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun of the Mythological era, an Emperor's corpse that gained consciousness, reappeared at the end of the Primordial era, formed a bond with the Wa Emperor, and proved the Dao again in the Desolate Ancient era.
This fits the legends of brother and sister, as well as Emperor Fuxi's reincarnation.
And in the Mythological era, there was only one Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun related to balancing Yin and Yang and evolving chaos.
The Immeasurable Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun!
"The Immeasurable Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun killed the Chaos Body back then; how could he have no gains? Taiji is his starting point, cultivating both Yin and Yang in the Primordial era is his node, and proving the Dao with the Eight Trigrams in the Desolate Ancient era is his end..."
"If this is really the case, how many lives did Emperor Emperor Fuxi live?"
"Three lives, or four lives!"
"Taiji, Two Forms, Four Symbols, Eight Trigrams..."
"He is an existence with the title of Huang Tiandi—an Ancient race Huang Tiandi, a Human race Huang Tiandi, or perhaps they fought, and that is how they obtained such a title."
Lin Xian looked up at the starry sky and muttered: "The Dao Sect does not see the Immeasurable, Earth does not have Emperor Fuxi; one does not see the person in life, nor the corpse in death, only endless legends."
"Could it be that this Great Emperor really broke into the Immortal Domain?"
It was truly too strange, truly too unusual. If the conjecture came true, then Emperor Fuxi must be a powerhouse at the Huang Tiandi level.
As a powerhouse at the Huang Tiandi level, after the Lingbao Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun fell, his Emperor corpse evolved into star fields and ancient lands, creating countless legends, and the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords shocked the ages.
But Emperor Fuxi left no trace; what remained in the human world were only fragments of the Emperor Fuxi Dragon Stele, the same treatment as the fragments of the Nine Tripods cast by the Great Yu.
The Imperial weapons were all shattered, which shows it was a divine war, no less than the dark destruction of the world.
"Perhaps I should go to the Feng family; these are real relatives."
Lin Xian touched the dragon horns on his head, feeling that since he had gathered the Ji family and the Jiang family, how could he be missing the Feng family?
Feng, Ji, Jiang—these are the three ancient Imperial families of the human race; he would definitely have great gains.
I heard that in the Eastern Wasteland's Feng family, there is a dragon stele with characters like a human head and snake body, left by an Ancient Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun. Miss Feng Huang of the Feng family viewed this stele and created her own divine art at the age of thirteen.
You must know that Ye Fan only created his own scripture at the Saint realm, and only stood in the forbidden domain at the Saint King realm.
Feng Huang, a heaven's pride expert who tied with the Golden-Winged Little Peng King, could create an art suitable for herself; it can be seen that the dragon stele is heaven-defying.
