Chapter 363
Of course, the greatest benefit to Duiluofu Gang came from my own recent awakening.
This was the core of everything.
To truly and perfectly fuse all of Luo Fu's cultivation systems.
"Then let's begin seclusion," Luo Fu slowly closed his eyes.
He needed a long period of seclusion and cultivation.
With Dao-level awakening, Luo Fu would push himself to the absolute limit of what he could currently achieve.
As Luo Fu entered seclusion.
Di Jun and Dong Huang Taiyi also returned to their Heavenly Court.
After returning to the Heavenly Court, Di Jun finally exhaled in relief—it seemed the human Luo Fu had indeed kept his word.
If Luo Fu allied with the Twelve Ancestral Wushu, many of our high echelons of the Demon Clan would likely remain trapped in that realm.
Upon arriving at the Heavenly Court, Di Jun dismissed Kun Peng and the many demon gods, for these demon clan elites also required prolonged seclusion and rest to gradually recover.
Di Jun understood this well.
The state of the demon gods was one of the key reasons Di Jun had agreed to Luo Fu's terms.
At that time, turning hostile would have given our demon clan not the slightest chance of victory.
"Brother, why did we give Luo Fu our blood essence? He humiliated us—we could have struck him down," Dong Huang Taiyi gritted his teeth, still unable to believe his brother had retreated before Luo Fu.
Brother is the Ye Tiandi of the demon clan's Heavenly Court.
Luo Fu is merely a human—what if he is a disciple of a Saint?
Before the Saints, we demon clan only feared them—how could we now be reduced to this? It is disgrace.
"Strike him down?" Di Jun took a deep breath. "Forget for now whether Luo Fu could reignite his Chaos Da Luo power—do you think we could have defeated those Twelve Ancestral Wushu even then?"
"The Twelve Ancestral Wushu regarded Luo Fu as the reincarnation of Pan Gu—not just empty words."
"But…" Dong Huang Taiyi still refused to accept it.
Back then, we were no match for the Twelve Ancestral Wushu—that was obvious to anyone.
After all, under the oppressive presence of that supreme Changhe, the Twelve Ancestral Wushu suffered little harm.
But our demon clan, due to the disappearance of the Chaos Bell, all suffered some backlash.
Not to mention the demon gods had lost their combat effectiveness.
Even I and my brother Di Jun lacked our full-strength power.
"Taiyi, I understand your resentment, your shame—do you think I don't feel shame?" Di Jun's face twisted with fury.
Earlier, compromising before Luo Fu had filled Di Jun, the Ye Tiandi, with rage and unwillingness.
He was the demon clan's Ye Tiandi.
Who was Luo Fu? Merely a human, merely a junior among us.
Now, a great figure like Di Jun had been ridden over by a junior—no wonder he was furious.
If it had been a Saint like Tongtian Jiaozhu forcing us into this, Di Jun and the others might not have felt this way.
It's simply that status changes how one feels.
In short, Luo Fu brought only shame to Di Jun and the others.
"But what else could we do? Fight the Ancestral Wushu to the death back then?" Di Jun said. "You know—in that situation, fighting to the death offered us not the slightest hope of victory."
"Moreover, we cannot let our grudge against Luo Fu go so easily."
"The Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array—when fully activated, even a Dao-attained Saint need not frighten us."
"But an even better method is to defeat the Ancestral Wushu, and by unifying the Primordial World, gain the chance to attain Dao and become a Dao-attained Saint."
Yes.
This was Di Jun's ambition.
Leading the demon clan was not merely about satisfying Di Jun's thirst for power.
For Di Jun, he knew power meant nothing in the Primordial World.
Or rather, to him, power served only to amplify strength.
Di Jun understood this clearly.
If he and his brother Dong Huang Taiyi could attain Dao and become Dao-attained Saints.
Then the demon clan would have two Saints.
Thus, the demon clan would truly become the supreme dominator of the Primordial World.
Not remain constrained by the presence of Dao-attained Saints.
Even forced to rely on Fu Xi, to see if he could properly guide the Saint Nü Wa.
Nü Wa was a Saint of the demon clan's Heavenly Court—though she had never truly become one of us. Di Jun had no better solution.
So in Di Jun's understanding.
Attaining Dao himself as a Dao-attained Saint was the only permanent solution.
"Attaining Dao as a Dao-attained Saint," Dong Huang Taiyi's eyes gleamed with anticipation.
Recall that back then, the Three Pure Ones, Nü Wa, and others were no different from us—and we, who ruled the demon clan, had even forced the Three Pure Ones to yield.
Aside from the Ancestral Wushu, Di Jun and Dong Huang Taiyi nearly lorded over the entire Primordial World.
But who knew.
After Nü Wa created humanity and became a Saint, the Three Pure Ones, Zhunti, Jieyin, and other Semi-Saints suddenly and consecutively attained Dao and became Hun Yuan Da Luo.
Hun Yuan Da Luo and Semi-Saint were two vast chasms apart.
It meant six more unchallengeable great figures now loomed above the demon clan.
This left Di Jun and Dong Huang Taiyi with complex emotions.
It was equivalent to being the sole sovereign in the past, and in an instant he had fallen from such a position.
"So, Taiyi, what we need now is to lie low. Once our strength has recovered and we have destroyed the Ancestral Witches, what will the human Luo Fu amount to?" Di Jun said with an icy gaze. "The humiliations of the past—we will repay them to the other party one by one in the days to come."
"Brother, I understand." Eastern Sovereign Taiyi nodded.
Eastern Sovereign Taiyi understood.
For now, they could only swallow this humiliation and wait for the day when they would have their chance for revenge.
"Brother." Eastern Sovereign Taiyi suddenly thought of something. "About the matter of whether Luo Fu is the reincarnation of the great god Pangu."
Speaking of this, a trace of wariness and fear also appeared in Eastern Sovereign Taiyi's eyes.
Previously, Luo Fu had transformed into Pangu and struck out the Heaven-Opening blow.
That kind of terror was also etched into Eastern Sovereign Taiyi's very soul.
Such tremendous power is not something a weakling can gaze upon.
"The reincarnation of the great god Pangu." Di Jun murmured, the same wariness and fear also present in his eyes.
Because if Luo Fu truly held such an identity.
Then their desire for revenge would likely be very difficult.
The great god Pangu was simply not someone who could be compared to those Heavenly Dao Saints, let alone the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
"Taiyi, don't worry. He's merely a member of the human race. The great god Pangu perished long ago—how could there possibly be any reincarnation?" Di Jun hurriedly said.
This could also be considered as comforting his own brother.
For Di Jun, he also did not wish Luo Fu to hold such an identity.
After all, if that were the case.
Their humiliation would likely truly be endless.
"True enough." Eastern Sovereign Taiyi said with a light laugh, "He's merely a member of the human race."
Not to mention that Di Jun had managed to soothe Eastern Sovereign Taiyi, the high echelons of the Demon Clan were now in a situation of closed-door cultivation to recover their injuries.
For the entire Primordial Land.
The matter of Luo Fu's Tribulation Crossing this time gradually spread throughout the entire Primordial World.
After all, the previous doomsday-like display of the Primordial World had utterly shocked the entire world.
This time, the heavenly tribulation had actually been caused by that Luo Fu, the personal disciple of a Sage whose fame had once resounded throughout the Primordial Land.
This was simply an utterly shocking matter.
One must know that, in the eyes of many Primordial World powerhouses, Luo Fu had originally been merely a powerhouse at the Golden Immortal layer.
It was only in the Kunlunsan Sect competition that Luo Fu had performed outstandingly.
Surpassing the other personal disciples and securing first place.
It was precisely because of this.
