Refining the Dao into Godhood: A Tale of the Jie Sect-Chapter 32 [The Mandate in the Mouth, Law Follows the Utterance]

Chapter 32: Chapter 32 [The Mandate in the Mouth, Law Follows the Utterance]

And when Xiao Mang Demon God perished, Emperor Jun in the Heavenly Court also had a premonition. He immediately took out the Evil Summoning Banner to check the True Spirit on it, only to see a very familiar aura vanish in the blink of an eye.

"Has Xiao Mang fallen?"

"Who did it?"

Emperor Jun instantly felt a surge of anger rushing to his head. Although this time, due to Xiao Mang Demon God’s cause, the Demon Clan lost more than ten Daluo Golden Immortals and a demon army of a million, and even he himself was severely injured by Pan King Ancestor, he still highly regarded Xiao Mang Demon God’s loyalty.

Each Daluo Golden Immortal is an invaluable member of the Demon Clan. They are the foundation of the Demon Court, and Emperor Jun’s reliance in the battle against the Witch Clan.

Now, after the great battle with the Witch Clan, the Demon Clan has lost many Daluo Demon Saints. To complete the Celestial Stars Battle Formation, it is necessary to recruit more Daluo ranks.

However, during this time, he first hit a wall with the Dragon Clan, and then encountered the calamitous Pan King, making Emperor Jun feel like he was cursed with misfortune to the extreme!

He initially thought that after Donghuang Taiyi forcefully eliminated Pan King, the situation would improve, but unexpectedly, not long after his return to the Heavenly Court, Xiao Mang Demon God had fallen!

Isn’t this a slap in his face?

Thinking of this, he immediately asked someone to invite Fu Xi to handle the matter.

After establishing the Demon Clan with Donghuang Taiyi, they had invited many Innate Sacred beings to join, and the siblings Nuwa and Fu Xi were among the best.

To win the two over, he promised them the titles of "Emperor Xi" and "Wa Emperor," allowing them to share the same fate and fortune as him and Donghuang Taiyi in the Demon Clan.

It’s a pity that Nuwa has always been indifferent to worldly affairs. After becoming a Saint, she distanced herself from the Primordial world and established Taixu Heaven within Chaos. Now she is merely a name within the Demon Clan!

However, seeing Nuwa become a Saint, Fu Xi was roused with ambition, hoping to leverage the Demon Clan’s fate to reach new heights, at least not to fall too far behind Nuwa.

"Daoist Fu Xi, please take care of this!"

Emperor Jun said earnestly, "I am wounded, and Taiyi is in seclusion, hoping to Slash the Second Corpse before the next battle with the Witch Clan! I can only trouble Daoist Fu Xi with this matter."

In fact, Emperor Jun was also troubled. Within the Demon Court, there was a mix of good and bad. Xi He was teaching their children, Kunpeng was ambitious, and among the top ten Demon Saints, Ji Meng was still connected to the Dragon Clan, while Guiche often interacted with the Phoenix Clan. Only Bai Ze and Shang Yang could be considered as elders of the Demon Clan.

But Bai Ze and Shang Yang had barely managed to Slash the First Corpse, and their strength was far inferior to that of Kunpeng and Fu Xi. He dared not expose them to danger.

Therefore, the first person he thought of was Fu Xi, who had Slashed the Second Corpse!

With a Saint as his backer, even in danger, ordinary beings would not dare to harm him. This was an advantage others did not possess.

"Rest assured, Daoist!"

Fu Xi nodded and said, "After all, Xiao Mang was a member of our Heavenly Court. As Xi Emperor of the Heavenly Court, I naturally cannot let him die in vain!"

He could see that Emperor Jun was under great pressure recently, first with the Celestial Stars Battle Formation being broken, and then suffering setbacks with both the Dragon Clan and Pan King Ancestor.

Having enjoyed so many benefits, it’s time for him to contribute to the Demon Clan and the Heavenly Court!

Meanwhile, Xuanqing, who was originally refining the Pan King Pearl and comprehending Pan King Ancestor’s Great Dao, suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of palpitation and panic.

"Could it be that a powerful being is trying to divine my whereabouts?"

In the age of calamities, the Heavenly Mechanism Cause and Effect is obscured, making it difficult to divine, but not impossible. Otherwise, Xuanqing’s "Innate Eight Diagrams" could not be used!

"I must leave quickly!"

Xuanqing’s brow furrowed, and he thought to himself, "Within the Demon Clan, Emperor Jun holds Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures like River Map and Luo Book, both divination artifacts! Besides, Fu Xi and Bai Ze are also among the best in this aspect!"

"Must not be careless!"

Originally, he intended to refine the miasma left by Pan King as a means of protection, but after weighing the pros and cons, he decided to evade the spotlight for now.

As the thought crossed his mind, he immediately employed the method of Self and Other, creating over a dozen avatars of himself, and activated "Traversing Earth’s Golden Light," fleeing in different directions.

During this process, he deliberately used the "Innate Eight Diagrams" to blur cause and effect, altering the heavenly mechanism, in an attempt to lead the entity deducing from behind towards the wrong direction.

Meanwhile, his true self fully urged the "Golden Radiance Crown," concealing his own aura, and then executed "Submerged Abyss Contracting Earth," fleeing deep into the veins of the Primordial Earth.

These two Divine Skills are among the more advanced in the Xuan Sect’s Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Laws; "Traversing Earth’s Golden Light" boasts speed that surpasses cultivators of the same realm, capable of traveling from the North Sea to Cangwu by dusk, while "Submerged Abyss Contracting Earth" is a method of evasion through the earth, where in areas with rich earth vein aura, one can travel a million miles in an instant.

"Strange?"

Not long after Xuanqing left, Fu Xi arrived at the Hundred Thousand Mountains: "Although my divination shows that Xiao Mang Demon God was killed by the residual wraith of Pan King, there was also a cultivator who played a key role! But why can’t I determine the direction in which that person left, even with my full effort in divination?"

Fu Xi’s interest was piqued.

In his divinations, that cultivator’s realm wasn’t high, at least not stronger than Xiao Mang Demon God; otherwise, they wouldn’t have needed the power of Pan King’s residual wraith to slay the Xiao Mang Demon God!

"Interesting!"

His eyes emitted a startling divine light, with Daluo’s brilliance scattering, allowing a glimpse of the river of time and space, as if he wished to reflect the events that took place here.

But in that instant, an intangible force interfered with him, causing the grand river of time and space to suddenly display countless possibilities!

Eventually, he eliminated the interference, but was still left with over a dozen possible escape routes!

"Then I’ll try them one by one!"

He is a Quasi-Saint who slashed the Second Corpse, with a thought he can travel millions of miles, and he has enough time to verify each of these dozen results.

In an instant, Fu Xi appeared millions of miles away, but as soon as he made his move, the aura he tracked transformed into a beam of light and dissipated into the void.

"This method..."

Fu Xi, with his steadfast mind, incomparable to ordinary people, wouldn’t give up after one failure; with another thought, he moved towards another direction.

Alas, he still found nothing!

However, Nuwa, residing in Taixu Heaven, watched this scene, revealing a smile: "Interesting! Even my brother couldn’t catch that noisy kid, huh?"

Ordinary people all think that becoming a Saint means to transcend everything.

But little do they know, Saints also have many constraints and cannot do as they truly wish.

After becoming a Saint, Nuwa indeed wanted to do something, but Heavenly Dao told her that a Saint should be impartial and not interfere too much with the fate of the beings of Primordial.

Whether it be the Witch Clan, the Demon Clan, or even the Human Race she created by hand, they all have their set destinies, and forceful interference would only bring disaster upon them.

In fact, more than once, she advised Fu Xi to withdraw from the Demon Clan and avoid getting entangled with cause and effect.

But Fu Xi, as a Quasi-Saint who slashed the Second Corpse, has his own convictions; if he wants to advance further, he needs to seek a massive amount of fortune and fate!

Calamities often accompany opportunities; a great calamity is not only a disaster but also a chance for creation. Some are passively dragged into calamity, while others actively seek it, looking for a chance to break through!

Fu Xi is the latter!

Nuwa watched with interest and murmured, "If you can escape my brother’s pursuit, I will personally grant you an opportunity for creation."

The word of a Saint is the law of heaven, manifesting the will of heaven to some extent.

It is not given lightly, nor is it easily retracted!
