29: The destruction of Xi Huang Palace, and the invitation from Donghuang Taiyi.
In an instant, countless Innate Beings in the branch region prostrated on the ground.
The pressure of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal was terrifyingly immense, especially since Fuxi was at the Late Stage of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm and was currently enraged. Some beings below the Golden Immortal Realm directly vomited blood and collapsed, unable to rise.
Including Li Yun, who was far away, also felt his Qi and blood churning. Fortunately, his Physical Body was strong enough; otherwise, he might not even have been able to maintain his 72 Transformations ability.
"So strong!"
"Is this the might of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal?"
"It's far more powerful than the residual shockwave I encountered back at Mount Buzhou."
Muttering inwardly, Li Yun's desire to grow stronger grew even more intense.
However, before seeing the main players, he had no intention of retreating or leaving. After all, this matter was shrouded in strangeness; it definitely wasn't as simple as it appeared on the surface.
"Fuxi, you're courting death~"
At that moment, an angry shout came from within the branch region.
The next second, golden light blazed brilliantly as a ball of golden flame soared into the sky from within the mountain range.
Instantly, the temperature within a ten-thousand-mile radius began to skyrocket. The golden flame, like a stream of light, directly appeared in the area before the members of Xi Huang Palace.
A terrifying aura of ultimate Yang and utmost rigidity swept forth. The Xi Huang Palace members behind Fuxi and Nüwa all couldn't help but grunt, their figures rapidly retreating hundreds of miles before stabilizing.
It should be noted that these Xi Huang Palace Cultivators who followed Fuxi were all at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level.
Yet, they were forced back and even injured, vomiting blood, from just a single encounter, showcasing the newcomer's immense power.
As the golden flame dissipated, a figure appeared.
The newcomer had golden hair and golden eyes, stood two meters and eighty centimeters tall, and wore a golden Daoist robe adorned with a vivid pattern of a Three-legged Golden Crow. His head was slightly raised, exuding an unruly, untamed temperament and an overwhelming, domineering aura.
"Donghuang Taiyi!"
Seeing the newcomer, a flash of Killing Intent flickered in Fuxi's eyes. He then gnashed his teeth and said, "Where is Dijun? You have such audacity to dare invade my Xi Huang Palace's territory, even snatching away the beings of my Xi Huang Palace. Do you truly think my sister and I are easy to bully?"
Hearing this, Donghuang Taiyi glanced disdainfully at Fuxi, not directly saying anything, but his meaning was already clear.
He truly did not regard Fuxi and Nüwa with any importance, even completely looking down upon the existence of the two siblings.
"Bastard!"
Seeing this situation, both Fuxi and Nüwa were enraged.
Donghuang Taiyi's behavior and actions were truly infuriating. Subconsciously, they summoned their respective Spirit Treasures, ready to take action.
"I advise you not to bring about your own ruin!"
With a cold laugh, Donghuang Taiyi swept a contemptuous glance over Fuxi and Nüwa, then continued, "Aren't you curious about where my elder brother is?"
"Do you think that after your grand, imposing departure, who could possibly defend against the assault led by my elder brother?"
"Xi Huang Palace? From now on, only my Demon God Palace will exist in this region!"
"You~"
Hearing these words, the expressions of Fuxi and Nüwa changed.
At this point, how could they fail to understand the meaning behind Donghuang Taiyi's words? How could they not see that something was amiss in this matter?
"Ah..."
"Ah..."
Just at that moment, a series of miserable screams rang out.
Following the sounds, one could see Lu Fa leading a group of people directly subduing the remaining Xi Huang Palace members. Even some Cultivators who tried to resist were immediately executed on the spot.
This scene directly caused Fuxi and Nüwa's eyes to nearly burst with rage. Disregarding Donghuang Taiyi's presence, they both glared at Lu Fa with intense Killing Intent and questioned, "Lu Fa, what are you doing?"
"My apologies!"
Facing the furious Fuxi and Nüwa, Lu Fa now cupped his hands in a salute.
Immediately after, he directly led his own people, escorting those Xi Huang Palace members who had lost their ability to resist, to the area beside Donghuang Taiyi. Bowing respectfully, he said, "Greetings, Lord Donghuang!"
As his words fell, the Cultivators behind him also saluted one after another: "Greetings, Lord Donghuang!"
"Greetings, Lord Donghuang!"
"..."
At this point, the atmosphere in the area fell deathly silent.
Fuxi and Nüwa, looking at their subordinate who had betrayed them, trembled with rage, but even more so, they felt disappointment and pain.
"As expected, this was a trap all along!"
In the distant area, Li Yun took in this entire scene and shook his head.
He had felt something was off about Lu Fa earlier; now it seemed his feeling was correct.
Not only that, he also sensed that his Clone had been eliminated.
For a moment, Li Yun decided not to linger any longer.
After all, Fuxi and Nüwa were Grand Unity Golden Immortals. Even if Donghuang Taiyi wielded the chaos bell, killing them would be difficult. The two of them escaping wouldn't be a problem.
But this so-called Xi Huang Palace...
From this moment on, it was likely completely destroyed, to be replaced by the Demon God Palace established by Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi, which would rapidly rise to prominence.
Thinking this, Li Yun took another glance at the three figures confronting each other in the distant sky—Donghuang Taiyi, Fuxi, and Nüwa—then without hesitation, flapped his wings and left the area.
Although he hadn't obtained the information he wanted, witnessing this scene was still worth far more than the effort.
It also spurred him on to Cultivate and grow stronger with even greater effort. After all, in this Honghuang World where the strong were revered, without sufficient strength, one had no right to speak, no sense of presence, and no freedom.
With this thought, Li Yun increased his speed, heading straight for the Wu Clan Territory... As Li Yun departed, Donghuang Taiyi also stopped wasting words. His gaze locked onto Fuxi and Nüwa, his expression aloof and icy as he said, "Fuxi, Nüwa, I now offer you an opportunity: join my Demon God Palace!"
"My elder brother has said that as long as you join my Demon God Palace, the people of Xi Huang Palace will still follow you and remain your subordinates."
"But if you refuse, then you become enemies of my Demon God Palace. Today, you two siblings will not be allowed to leave this place either."
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
Almost the instant Donghuang Taiyi finished speaking, five figures shot out from the area below.
Together with Donghuang Taiyi, they surrounded Fuxi and Nüwa. Each one emitted an aura fluctuation that had reached the level of a mid-to-Late Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
"Damn it!"
Seeing this situation, Fuxi's face turned ashen. Gripping his fuxi zither, he prepared for a fight to the death.
"Elder Brother!"
However, before Fuxi could act, Nüwa suddenly spoke up to stop him: "Let's surrender."
"Xi Huang Palace no longer exists. There's no need for the two of us to continue this pointless struggle."
"Moreover, the fact that Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi have caused such a commotion is definitely not simply for the sake of annexing us."
After saying this, Nüwa turned her head to look at Donghuang Taiyi and said, "Speak, what is your goal?"
"If you want my brother and me to join, then show sufficient sincerity."
"Fellow Daoist Nüwa, straightforward as ever!"
With a hearty laugh, Donghuang Taiyi looked at Nüwa with surprise. He hadn't expected this seemingly unremarkable Nüwa to be so rational. Moreover, judging by the situation, it seemed Fuxi followed her arrangements.
Thinking this, Donghuang Taiyi didn't hide anything: "My elder brother has an aspiration: to dominate the Honghuang!"
"In the current Honghuang, there are countless Cultivators, yet they are scattered like loose sand. A mere group of barbarians without Primordial Spirits can actually become the number one race in the Honghuang, even the supreme combat force. This is simply the greatest disgrace to us Cultivators."
"Precisely because of this, my brother and I descended from the Sun Star to establish the Demon God Palace. Our purpose is to gather like-minded individuals to establish our own era, crush the Wu Clan, unify the Honghuang, and become the Lord of Heaven and Earth~"
