Chapter 93: Chapter 93 [Huayan Pure Land, Diverting Disaster Eastward] (Seeking Subscriptions)

Xi He fell, and logically, the Demon Clan would certainly seek crazy revenge, but whether it was due to the awe of the Daoist Ancestor’s decree or because Emperor Jun was secretly preparing some major move... during this period, the Primordial World had actually experienced a rare peace!

But everyone knew that this was simply the calm before the storm!

Emperor Jun led the many Daluo of the Demon Clan in practicing the "Celestial Stars Battle Formation" day and night, intending to enhance the formation’s might by a few notches before the decisive battle with the Witch Clan.

The Witch Clan was doing the same.

Thanks to the essence blood contributed by the other Ancestor Witches, Xingtian’s bloodline had undergone transformation. Although slightly inferior in strength, he also began practicing the "Twelve Devastating Divine Slaughter Array" with eleven other Ancestor Witches in Pangu Hall, preparing to surprise the Demon Clan and squeeze out every bit of their potential for the final battle!

In the blink of an eye, five "yuanhui" (cycles of years) passed, and with the participation of the Xuan Sect, the order of the Underworld was quickly perfected, and the remaining three Ghost Emperors had been selected!

Great Immortal Jin Ding, True Person of Misery Traversing, and Taoist Lang Feng, each one a guest among the three thousand of the Purple Cloud Palace, on good terms with the three teachings of the Xuan Sect, also wished to take refuge in the World of Darkness to avoid the calamity of the Witch Demons.

Among them, Great Immortal Jin Ding is a Quasi-Saint who had slashed away one corpse, while True Person of Misery Traversing and Taoist Lang Feng were also beings at the Daluo Golden Immortal Perfection realm.

And within the Underworld, the Three Xiaos serving as the Yin Mountain Goddess, Wuyun Immortal and Qiu Shouxian serving as the rulers of the Luo Feng Six Heavens, their cultivation was also making rapid progress!

Taiyi was the same!

As for Xuanqing, he benefited immensely; atop his head, within the celebratory clouds, a Refining Dao Divine Tree was faintly visible, and upon it were seven ethereal Daluo Heavens constantly rising and sinking, respectively the Thunder Dao Daluo Heaven, Fire Dao Daluo Heaven, Wind Dao Daluo Heaven, Plague Dao Daluo Heaven, Ghost Path Daluo Heaven, Spiritual Dao Daluo Heaven, and Sword Dao Daluo Heaven!

During these five yuanhui, he understood the other Great Dao besides the thunder and fire to a very deep level, and his cultivation also broke through to the second realm of the Daluo Golden Immortal!

The Great Dao has no hierarchy, but the Daluo Realm divides the understanding of the Great Dao into three stages: Dao’s Eternal Beginning, Dao Trace Remains, and Dao Through All Heavens.

Restraining one’s timeline, to attain everlasting certification, is the Dao’s Eternal Beginning, the Daluo Realm’s first realm.

Able to significantly change the surrounding heavenly and earthly rules, evolve the Daluo law domain, and leave permanent Dao Traces in the world, that is the Dao Trace Remains, the Daluo Realm’s second realm.

Regarding the Dao Through All Heavens, also known as the Daluo pinnacle, the third realm, it requires one’s own Great Dao to be branded into the river of time and space, allowing oneself to reflect upon myriads of worlds in a thought, influencing past, present, and future across three thousand universes, to reach a state where one exists alongside the Great Dao of all heavens and worlds!

Of course, the Primordial Main Heavenly Realm is somewhat special, as if a convergence point for multiple dimensions. An existence of the Daluo third realm might easily obliterate the Great Thousand Worlds, but it still cannot shake the Primordial World.

At most, they can only affect thousands of miles of void, temporarily changing the rules of this region!

Xuanqing’s seven Daluo Heavens can already freely switch between the tangible and the intangible, and can coordinate everything with the Dao Tree, naturally having reached the Daluo Realm’s second stage!

He once again used the method of self-other fusion, and with the "Pure Yang Sword" bearing the light of his being, he created a Sword Dao incarnation to ponder the mysteries of the Sword Dao for him.

Close to the water one gets the first moon!

This incarnation was not sent out by him, but stayed by Emperor Shangqing’s side, listening to his teachings day and night, gradually perfecting his own Sword Dao Daluo Heaven!

Each Daluo Heaven is a manifestation of the Great Dao Laws, meaning that Xuanqing already had an understanding of this particular Great Dao that was not inferior to that of a Daluo Golden Immortal.

Typically, a Daluo Golden Immortal would only create one Daluo Heaven. An existence like Xuanqing, who has opened up seven Daluo Heavens and is still constantly pondering other Great Dao, if viewed across the Primordial World, is perhaps a unique existence.

In fact, Xuanqing had planned to seclude himself for a while longer until the end of the Witch-Demon great war, but destiny does not favor man’s wishes, and suddenly a great number of Asuras flowed into the World of Darkness.

The World of Darkness and the Primordial World were connected through two gateways, one guarded by Xuanqing at Mount Tai, and the other occupied by Minghe Daoist in the Netherworld Blood Sea!

Perhaps with the Witch-Demon great war approaching, more and more races wanted to enter the World of Darkness to avoid disaster, believing it to be far safer than the Primordial World.

As the "Tai Mountain Lord," guarding the gateway between Yin and Yang, Xuanqing naturally could not let anyone pass arbitrarily, but Minghe Daoist was not as stringent!

As long as some benefits were provided, he allowed those beings to pass through the pathways in the Blood Sea into the World of Darkness, causing great chaos there.

Everywhere were beings contending for territory!

However, it was not solely Minghe Daoist’s fault. Ksitigarbha, who had made a grand vow, opened a "Huayan Pure Land" at the border of the Netherworld and the Blood Sea. While he saved the wronged souls of the Underworld, he also sought to convert the Asuras in the Blood Sea. This naturally incited an uncontrollable fury in Minghe Daoist!

However, since Ksitigarbha was a direct disciple of a Saint, it was not suitable for Minghe to outright kill him. Moreover, his four great Asura Kings were also no match for Ksitigarbha.

Thus, Minghe Daoist resorted to killing someone with a borrowed knife, using the passageway in the Blood Sea to allow creatures from the Primordial World to enter and wreak havoc for Ksitigarbha.

Despite being a Quasi-Saint who had slain his Second Corpse, Ksitigarbha was not omnipotent, and he could not possibly slay all the beings that entered the Netherworld!

Upon hearing Wuyun Immortal’s report on the current situation, Xuanqing frowned and asked, "So, does Ksitigarbha want us to help him solve the problem?"

"Yes!"

Wuyun Immortal nodded weakly.

"Hmph!"

Xuanqing snorted coldly, saying in annoyance, "What makes him think he has that luxury! If he hadn’t provoked Minghe, how could he have incited such chaos now?"

Although he greatly admired Ksitigarbha’s determination, he still felt disgusted by such behavior.

"What does the teacher say?"

Xuanqing immediately looked at Wuyun Immortal.

Wuyun Immortal shook his head: "The teacher took action and slew several troublemakers who disturbed the order of the Underworld, but the teacher doesn’t really want to help Ksitigarbha solve his issues!"

Why should they from the Xuan Sect have to resolve the troubles stirred up by the Western Sect?

"I understand now!"

Xuanqing nodded immediately.

Then, he directly summoned the "Netherworld Geomancy Map," commanding a million Yin Gods and employing Moving Mountains, creating a mountain range spanning billions of miles across the western part of the Netherworld.

Having accomplished all this, he then sought out Emperor Shangqing to personally take action, drawing the Water of Oblivion to form a vast river in front of this mountain range.

"East of this mountain belongs to my Underworld’s jurisdiction, and nobody is allowed to cross the boundary!"

"Violators will be put to death!"

Xuanqing exercised his Divine Skills, making his voice audible to all beings in the Netherworld, and then he invited the Three Xiaos to set up the "Nine Curves Yellow River Formation" using the River of Oblivion.

The western part of the Netherworld can be left to Ksitigarbha, the Asura Clan, and those Loose Cultivators to dispute over!

He had no desire to take the blame for Ksitigarbha!

"This..."

Upon hearing this, Ksitigarbha’s face darkened, and he did not expect that the Xuan Sect would rather give up the western part of the Netherworld than help him pacify its chaos.

Afterwards, under Xuanqing’s leadership, numerous ghost soldiers and generals, along with Wuyun Immortal, Qiu Shouxian, and others, began to clear out the beings that had run to the eastern part of the Netherworld.

"You have two choices: either have your souls utterly annihilated or retreat to the west of the Heavenly Broken Mountain Range! Otherwise, don’t blame me for showing no mercy!"

Xuanqing, wielding the Purple Lightning Hammer, stood with endless Divine Thunder looming behind him, threatening these beings.

The Heavenly Broken Mountain Range was precisely the insurmountable barrier he had established in the western Netherworld using the "Netherworld Geomancy Map," ordering hundreds of millions of spectral spirits to move millions of large mountains.

Xuanqing couldn’t actually slaughter these beings!

His intention was merely to make them return to the western part of the Netherworld, to continue their struggle with Ksitigarbha and the Asura Clan, and not further disrupt the normal order of the Underworld!
