nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, gods of Hong Huang—who’s ever been serious?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, everyone’s gaze turned involuntarily to the main

utterly prepared—we must settle everything in one decisive strike!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm, that’s true,\" Xuan Qing nodded slightly. \"I have little guidance for this great battle—only one

you of some information and methods regarding Hong Jun—so you can prepare accordingly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Xuan Qing gave a brief summary of the coming battle and shared all known

immensely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Tian Di, for transmitting the Dao!\" the gods sincerely expressed their gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuan Qing didn’t know many details of the severing method, but he revealed the Tai Wu principle without reservation—everything he knew, he shared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining path he himself had not yet traversed—he only outlined the general idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If any of you have ideas, feel free to exchange them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuan Qing set the tone, then appended the meeting’s official theme: \"Taiwei

Four Calamities: Formation, Duration, Decay, Emptiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The principles were the same, yet the methods differed; the gods listened with rapt attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under his guidance, the gods experienced the four stages of the world’s creation to destruction—the Four Great Calamities: Formation, Duration, Decay, and Emptiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chenxing was also eager—he opened with: \"Life originates from water!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gods laughed: \"You’re bold!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, all beings of Hong Huang originated from Pan Gu, who originated from the Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chenxing’s statement redefined the origin of life—didn’t he fear retribution?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who among those who cultivate the Dao isn’t bold?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chenxing grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He feared nothing—only spoke: \"It is well known that Pan Gu is made of water.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dao friend Jing Yao once said: 'The highest good is like water. Water benefits all things without contention, dwelling where others despise—thus it is close to the Dao.'\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pan Gu sacrificed himself to become Hong Huang, benefiting all things—this is proof one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pan Gu was despised by all demonic gods in the chaotic age—this is proof two.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Though despised by demonic gods, Pan Gu never argued—he used his great axe to correct their behavior—this is proof three.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pan Gu was invincible, merging with the Dao, closest to it—this is proof four.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From these four proofs, we know Pan Gu is made of water.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thus, all beings of Hong Huang originate from Pan Gu; Pan Gu equals water; water is closest to the Dao; rounding off, all beings originate from water.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there a problem?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chenxing’s argument was logical and convincing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the chaotic demonic gods revived, they’d give Chenxing a thumbs-up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taishang admitted defeat: \"Dao friend, your thinking is brilliant—I cannot match you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Xuan Qing sparked the topic and Chenxing opened the floodgates, the gods’ subsequent speeches took wildly different directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Taiwei Yuan was filled with a joyful atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xuanqing opened the topic, and after Chen Xing unlocked his thinking, what the subsequent spirits said indeed took a different direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a time, Taiwei Yuan was filled with a joyful atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ultimately, all eyes turned to Luohou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is the true nature of your demonic Dao?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luohou pondered, then said: “To hold the sacred heart, to be brimming with martial virtue, to act according to one’s nature—that is perhaps the essence of our demonic Dao.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Luohou spoke of the *Heavenly Demon Secret*, the *Divine Demon Secret*, and the *Yin Demon Secret*.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were the core scriptures of the demonic Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was not afraid they would learn them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoever learned them became a demon—he only gained, never lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luohou finished recounting the Ten Demonic Secrets in one breath; each deity gained something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chenxing, still eager, asked: “Luohou, why don’t you tell us about the *Seductive Demon Secret*?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luohou shot Chenxing a glare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The secret of the Seductive Demon lies in perceiving the desires of all living beings.” To everyone’s surprise, Luohou began explaining the *Seductive Demon Secret*.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chenxing rejoiced wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deities of Taiwei listened, entranced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the scripture was finished, all remained immersed in the profound mystery of the Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Luohou spoke softly: “Your current reactions are precisely how the Seductive Demon entices with the Dao.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough, cough~~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deities immediately snapped back to their senses, resuming their solemn demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xuanqing turned to one side and asked: “By the way, Jingyao, how is your research on the Primordial Great Dao Nine-Transformation Immortal Hunyuan Pill coming along?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hunyuan Pill?” Taishang did not understand why Xiang Xuanqing suddenly asked this. He replied: “I’ve gathered ample materials, but no matter how I calculate, I feel something is still missing—a crucial opportunity.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I force the refinement now, it still won’t be perfect.
