Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation
Chapter 88 - 88 83 The Ownership of the Innate Gourd

88: Chapter 83 The Ownership of the Innate Gourd 88: Chapter 83 The Ownership of the Innate Gourd At this moment, Hong Yun felt something was amiss when he observed the actions of Zhun Ti and Jie Yin.

He couldn’t help but feel a twinge of regret in his heart.

Kun Peng’s eyes were filled with rage, he even glared angrily at Hong Yun and Yuan Shi.

If it weren’t for these two, he wouldn’t have lost his meditation mat.

Some of the beings present couldn’t help but turn their gaze towards Hong Yun, because he had once again played the good old man in the Purple Cloud Palace.

Di Jun was watching Zhun Ti and Jie Yin, who were resorting to a pitiful display, with a smile that was not quite a smile.

These two had the perseverance to sort through the Spiritual Vein and Earth Vein of the Western Primordial, abundant with great resolve, and they could endure hardship.

However, their style of conduct was truly shameless.

Jie Yin immediately noticed Di Jun in the crowd and swiftly transmitted a telepathic message to Zhun Ti.

Zhun Ti took a close look and indeed, it was Di Jun, causing his lamenting to abruptly come to a halt.

Seeing the two from the West stop their wailing, everyone suddenly felt puzzled.

Upon seeing their gazes all turning towards Emperor Jun, their confusion only deepened.

At that moment, both Zhun Ti and Jie Yin couldn’t help but silently bemoan their predicament.

Back then, at the Purple Cloud Palace when Di Jun had severely injured Yuan Shi, they took note of Di Jun.

They hadn’t forgotten that they owed Di Jun a karmic debt.

Later on, after Di Jun was designated as the Demon Emperor by the Saint, their hearts were filled with even more lament.

After all, the higher Di Jun’s status and the stronger his power, the harder it became to repay that karmic debt.

Therefore, after the teachings at the Purple Cloud Palace concluded, they purposely avoided Di Jun, which also led to their delayed return to the Primordial realm.

Little did they expect, they still could not avoid Di Jun in the end.

Of course, Di Jun knew that the two from the West had avoided him after the teachings at the Purple Cloud Palace concluded, but he did not mind, because this karmic debt was not something they could escape if they wished to.

“Zhun Ti, Jie Yin.”

Di Jun looked at the two with a smile that was not quite a smile and said.

“Your…

Demon Emperor.”

Zhun Ti said.

“Greetings to the Demon Emperor.”

Jie Yin said with a face full of sorrow.

With Jie Yin’s inherently sorrowful appearance, Di Jun couldn’t tell if there was any sorrow induced by himself.

Everyone was quite surprised by this scene; they had not expected that these two from the West actually knew Emperor Jun.

After all, the Western Primordial was desolate, and Innate Spiritual Energy was scarce; hardly any beings wished to travel to the Western Primordial.

Besides their visits to the Purple Cloud Palace, the two from the West rarely appeared in the Eastern Primordial realm.

They actually knew each other?

“These seven Innate Gourds are the opportunities for various daoists of the Eastern Primordial realm, and they have nothing to do with your West.”

Di Jun addressed Zhun Ti and Jie Yin.

Jie Yin still wore a face of sorrow, which now seemed even sadder.

A bitter smile appeared on Zhun Ti’s face, revealing a sense of helpless frustration.

The two exchanged glances, and Zhun Ti said to Di Jun, “What the Demon Emperor has said is exceedingly true; these seven Innate Gourds, while connected to our West, have a shallow fate with it, not enough for me to take them back to the West.”

Upon hearing Zhun Ti’s words, Di Jun nodded.

“Since the fate is shallow, may I ask if my brother and I may take our leave now?”

Just then, Jie Yin suddenly spoke up.

“Please do.”

After receiving Di Jun’s response, Zhun Ti and Jie Yin immediately left the place.

Arriving in the West, Zhun Ti felt the thin Innate Spiritual Energy and couldn’t help but look back at Buzhou Mountain with a bitter expression: “The Eastern Primordial is full of outstanding people and rich in spirit, birthing numerous Spiritual Treasures.

I wonder when such a scene will appear in our West.”

Jie Yin still had a face full of sorrow, but with a determined tone, said: “With our hearts united as brothers, our West will inevitably grow strong one day.”

Zhun Ti looked at the determined Jie Yin and nodded in agreement.

After Zhun Ti and Jie Yin left, everyone’s attention couldn’t help but gather back on Di Jun.

Di Jun didn’t care about these gazes; he looked towards the seven Innate Gourds and said, “Each of us brothers will take one Innate Gourd, may we?”

After speaking, Di Jun’s gaze swept over the faces of the crowd one by one.

Taiyi, holding the Chaos Bell, watched everyone as if he was awaiting someone to jump out in opposition.

“My three brothers and I have no objections.

Demon Emperor, please proceed.”

Taiching Laozi spoke with a calm demeanor.

“My sibling and I have no objections.”

Fu Xi said.

“Demon Emperor, please proceed.”

“No objections.”

…

Seeing that no one objected, Di Jun began, “Taiyi, you pick first.”

“Alright.”

Taiyi did not decline.

His gaze swept over the seven Innate Gourds and finally settled on a purple-yellow one.

With a wave of his hand and the guidance of his mana, the gourd came into Taiyi’s hand.

Taiyi inspected it with his Divine Sense and could not help saying, “What a treasure.”

After Taiyi made his choice, Di Jun turned to the remaining six gourds, his gaze finally resting on a purple-blue gourd.

This gourd is fated for me.

Di Jun thought to himself.

At the same time, he remembered the legend from a past life where Nuwa was said to have obtained a gourd and eventually crafted it into the Evil Banner.

Could it be this gourd?

Thinking back to the legend involving Di Jun and Taiyi from a past life, their power was nothing like what he possessed now.

It was only natural for them to have obtained an Innate Gourd.

With a casual summon, the purple-green gourd came into Di Jun’s hand.

After inspecting it with his Divine Sense, he pocketed it.

He pondered in his heart whether he should also craft this purple-green gourd into an Evil Banner like the legend from a past life.

An Evil Banner?

With my strength, do I need to keep a portion of others’ souls as leverage?

How far can the Demon Clan advance with such tactics?

Countless thoughts raced through Di Jun’s mind, and he quickly calculated his next move.

“Everyone, please proceed.”

After finishing his words, Di Jun retreated with Taiyi, Xi He, and Chang Xi.

However, they did not leave the area; instead, they found a spot to watch who would claim the next Innate Gourds.

“My three brothers and I each lay claim to an Innate Gourd.

I wonder if anyone objects?”

Taiching Laozi spoke with an indifferent voice, as if they were entitled to three Innate Gourds.

“We are the descendants of Pangu and rightly deserve these Innate Spiritual Treasures.”

Yuan Shi said arrogantly.

“If anyone objects, let us battle!”

Tong Tian was even more direct.

“Yuan Shi, if you wish to take an Innate Gourd, I, Kun Peng, will be the first to refuse!”

“So it’s you, you beast…

If you refuse, I will fight until you agree.”

Neither party was willing to budge and started to battle directly.

“Tong Tian, let’s fight!”

Ming He also stood up and declared.

“Good!”

Tong Tian was fearless.

Taiching Laozi quietly waited; since no one opposed him, he directly took away a purple-gold gourd.

Soon after, victors emerged from both sides.

Kun Peng was defeated.

Yuan Shi intended to pursue, but alas, Kun Peng had already left Buzhou Mountain.

Ming He was defeated and also left Buzhou Mountain.

Yuan Shi and Tong Tian each took an Innate Gourd.

Hong Yun likewise wanted to claim an Innate Gourd and, after defeating several opponents, took away a purple-red gourd.

The remaining underdeveloped gourd went to Nuwa, along with the gourd vine.
