Chapter 62: The Demon Court is Established, the Heavenly Dao Bears Witness
In the Western Land, two figures sped rapidly through the air.
Jieyin and Zhunti had gloomy faces, and neither of them spoke.
The Western Region was barren; in the past, they had traveled to the East many times and taken away many heavenly treasures.
Previously, it was only they who forcibly took from others, yet now they had been robbed one after another by a stone man.
The Gourd Vine, the Bitter Bamboo, the Huangzhong Plum—there were so many Supreme Innate Spiritual Roots on Mount Buzhou, yet there was not a single one on Mount Sumeru.
Recalling the scene on Mount Buzhou, both of them felt heartbroken.
Two Supreme Innate Spiritual Roots, whether planted on Mount Sumeru or used to refine spiritual treasures, would have been a massive opportunity, yet they were cut off by a stone man.
"Senior Brother! We must not let that stone man go in the future!" Zhunti said in a low voice.
The stone man's physical body was a treasure, an absolute material for refining weapons.
"Wait until the sermon at Purple Heaven Palace concludes before speaking of it!" Jieyin glanced at the gradually shrinking Mount Buzhou behind him, his eyes revealing nothing.
The other party's origins were mysterious and could ignore the might of Mount Buzhou; they were at a great disadvantage.
This stone man was very strange; the two had taken human form for quite some time, yet they had never heard of him.
More importantly, it was highly unreasonable that a stone man at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm had not headed to Purple Heaven Palace.
Zhunti did not speak again; the fact that the two of them had joined forces on Mount Buzhou and still failed to snatch the spiritual roots truly diminished their reputation as brothers.
The Mount Buzhou behind them grew smaller and smaller, gradually shrouded by layers of mist.
Zhunti gazed into the distance toward the Western Region, his face showing confusion. "Senior Brother! Why have we not reached Mount Sumeru yet?"
They had traveled this path many times; logically, they should have been able to faintly see Mount Sumeru on the horizon by now.
Yet in their line of sight, there was only a desolate land, with no sign of Mount Sumeru at all.
Jieyin had naturally discovered this long ago; he did not reply, only increasing his speed.
After a long while, they finally saw a high mountain standing tall on the distant horizon, wreathed in clouds and mist.
Jieyin and Zhunti looked at each other, a thought flashing through their minds.
The Primordial World was expanding! Unanimously, the two thought of the strange phenomena on Mount Buzhou.
The might of Mount Buzhou had surged, the mountain body had expanded, and now even the Primordial World itself was growing.
Zhunti's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "Perhaps it is because the Dao Ancestor is preaching to the Primordial World, bestowing blessings upon all living things, and thus Heaven and Earth have felt it!"
"Good!" Jieyin nodded, in full agreement.
Thinking of the six meditation cushions in Purple Heaven Palace, and how they—the brothers—had both sat upon them, the two felt a surge of pride.
Among the Three Thousand Guests of Zixiao Palace, there were only six meditation cushions; it was definitely not that simple.
After taking human form, they had addressed each other as brothers, and perhaps in the future, they would truly become brothers.
Recalling the power of the Dao Ancestor, the hearts of Jieyin and Zhunti became fervent once again.
Just at this moment, a bell toll—"Dang!"—shook the heavens and earth, resounding throughout the Primordial World.
The Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell!
The two figures paused, immediately looking up toward the firmament.
"The Primordial World is in chaos, and all living things suffer. I, Di Jun (Taiyi), have sensed the disorder of Heaven and Earth.
Now, with the Thirty-Three Heavens as our foundation, the Demon Court is established to rule over the ten thousand races of the Primordial World!
May the Heavenly Dao bear witness!"
As the words fell, they were accompanied by the resounding of the magnificent bell.
The bell toll was vast, causing the heavens and earth to lose their color, and the rolling Saintly might shook the universe!
"These Di Jun and Taiyi have such great ambition!" Zhunti cursed in anger, his face quite displeased.
Ruling over the ten thousand races of the Primordial World—what did that make them? But the next moment, he was stunned on the spot.
They saw the heavens hum with a sound; ten thousand times ten thousand zhang of rosy light appeared in the firmament, with layers of auspicious clouds and rolling celestial music.
Across the Primordial World, countless golden waves of energy rose, turning into dense golden ribbons that converged toward the Demon Court. Luck—it was the convergence of Heaven and Earth Luck!
This meant that the Heavenly Dao had granted the vow of Di Jun and Taiyi. This, this... "Hoo!"
Jieyin and Zhunti looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.
Many Innate Sacreds who were annoyed by the arrogance of Di Jun and Taiyi were likewise stunned by the thick luck in the firmament.
Heaven and Earth acknowledged it; the Demon Court was actually acknowledged by Heaven and Earth! In the Pangu Temple, Dijiang and the other Ancestral Witches escaped from the Blood Pool one by one, glaring at the Starry Sky.
"Arrogant! Truly too arrogant! Two feathered beasts, how dare they attempt to rule the Primordial World?"
"Big Brother! Let us attack the Demon Court and destroy these two fellows."
"Indeed! We are the Pangu Orthodox; how can we submit to two demons?"
Zhurong was furious, seven-foot flames spitting from his eyes.
The Fire Snakes on his ears hissed, venting their master's rage.
The remaining ones, like Gonggong, were all eager to fight, waiting only for Big Brother's command to smash that Thirty-Three Heavens and let this newly established Demon Court collapse immediately in the Primordial Starry Sky.
As for the so-called acknowledgement by Heaven and Earth, the Ancestral Witches held it in even greater disdain.
Dijiang had a gloomy face; ignoring the group of angry and irritable Ancestral Witches, his eyes were fixed tightly on the firmament.
He thought of what his little sister had said some time ago regarding the Great Calamity; it turned out that the Wu Clan's greatest opponent was the Demon Court.
Within the dazzling golden ribbons, one could clearly see powerful auras fleeing toward the Demon Court.
The Wu Clan ruled the Primordial land and had slaughtered many demons; now that the Demon Court had gained the acknowledgement of Heaven and Earth, the demons would surely gather together.
Just thinking of his little sister Houtu, Dijiang felt a surge of anger in his heart.
He had always cherished Houtu deeply, but at this moment, he could not help but be angry at her stubbornness.
Lacking Houtu, the Ancestral Witches' strongest means were restricted, and an abominable stone man had even appeared on Mount Buzhou.
Seeing that Dijiang had not spoken, Xuanming shouted anxiously, "Big Brother! What are we waiting for?"
The Ancestral Witches are bloodthirsty, and Xuanming is the worst of them; Di Jun and Taiyi are so arrogant that they should be slaughtered in the sky to uphold the name of the Wu Clan as the Pangu Orthodox.
Dijiang turned around slowly, his gaze sweeping over each of the Ancestral Witches, and he said indifferently, "Go back and cultivate in seclusion!"
Having said this, he ignored the several Ancestral Witches and dove headfirst into the Blood Pool.
The Demon Court has just been established and its momentum is at its peak; furthermore, Taiyi wields an Innate Supreme Treasure like the Chaos Bell, so he is by no means an ordinary person.
The key is that the Twelve Capital Divine Array is incomplete; if they were to attack rashly, the outcome would be unpredictable.
"Big Brother!!!"
"Big Brother?"
Dijiang's reaction left Xuanming and the others standing there in a daze.
Di Jun and Taiyi were so rampant, yet Big Brother actually chose to endure it without acting; this was completely beyond their expectations, and they immediately cast their gazes toward Xuanming.
Because of Tian Yuan, the Ancestral Witches had long been harboring a bellyful of anger; if they did not fight now, when would they?
Meeting the gazes of the others, Xuanming took a deep breath and finally cursed angrily, "Big Brother has already spoken, what are you still standing there like idiots for?"
Having said this, she kicked Gonggong, who was beside her, into the Blood Pool and then dove in after him.
Although the Ancestral Witches are furious and arrogant, they never disobey Dijiang.
The remaining ones, including Gonggong, looked at each other; although they were all filled with rage, they still dove into the Blood Pool one after another, their inner fury only growing more intense.
On Mount Buzhou, Tian Yuan looked up at the firmament, his heart also filled with shock.
Aside from admiring the domineering aura of Di Jun and Taiyi, he was also moved by the power of the Chaos Bell.
Without this treasure, how could a single word spread across the entire Primordial world?
Donghuang Taiyi, the number one person beneath the Saint! "I must hurry up and cultivate, I can't let these laborers get themselves killed off." With a mutter, Tian Yuan closed his eyes and began to cultivate the Law of Force.
Di Jun and Taiyi establishing the Demon Court was already within his expectations, so he felt no surprise! (End of this chapter)
