103: Chapter 103 Merit and Calamity

Guangchengzi and the other Twelve Golden Immortals gazed at the sky full of Karma, their eyes filled with longing.

The Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden was also trembling incessantly, her expression filled with excitement.

Finally, amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, the Human Emperor's Karma began to be distributed.

Two tenths of the Human Emperor's Karma drifted down from the sky, surging directly into the xuanyuan sword in Human Emperor Xuanyuan's hand.

The blade already contained the Luck of the Human Race, and upon being imbued with the Karma of the Human Dao, it trembled and hummed incessantly. The original cracks vanished completely, and the blade was shrouded in the mysterious yellow light of Karma. The aura of slaughter merged with the majesty of the Human Dao, and its grade soared, directly transforming into an Acquired Karma Supreme Treasure. Its power far exceeded what it was before, making it the true sword of the Human Emperor.

Following that, four tenths of the heavy Karma surged directly toward Human Emperor Xuanyuan himself.

Human Emperor Xuanyuan was enveloped in golden light; his Physical Body and Primordial Spirit were thoroughly baptized by the Karma. All hidden injuries left behind from previous battles were completely eliminated, and his cultivation base soared like a rocket, instantly breaking through the shackles and firmly stepping into the Middle Stage of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

Seeing this scene, The Six Sages exclaimed: "Another Hunyuan Golden Immortal."

A single struggle for the Human Emperor had given birth to three Hunyuan Golden Immortals.

After the Karma belonging to Human Emperor Xuanyuan was distributed, the remaining Karma was divided once more.

Half a tenth of the Karma fell into the body of the Dragon standing to the side. Even though the Dragon had only gone through the motions for the most part, it had intercepted the South-Pointing Chariot and collected a large number of remnant souls on the battlefield, so its contribution to Human Emperor Xuanyuan was still significant.

The Dragon did not absorb the Karma but instead stored it away, preparing to use it when breaking through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal stage.

Immediately after, another half-tenth of Karma fell, drifting toward the Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden.

She accepted the Karma with an excited face and hurriedly integrated it into her Primordial Spirit. The injuries the Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden had sustained because of Xingtian recovered, and her cultivation base advanced further.

Seeing the Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden's portion of Karma fall, the faces of the Twelve Golden Immortals standing to the side instantly darkened. Their brows were tightly locked, and intense dissatisfaction surged in the depths of their eyes.

Guangchengzi clenched his fists, staring at the remaining Karma in the Void Realm, his heart burning with rage as he gritted his teeth: "That portion of Karma originally belonged to me!!"

Another tenth of Karma transformed into a sky full of fine golden light, sprinkling like spring rain upon the Mortals of the Youxiong Tribe.

Nourished by the Karma, the injuries of the Youxiong Tribe members were completely healed, and their foundations were slightly improved.

At this point, exactly two tenths of the Human Emperor's Karma remained, floating above the Nine Heavens, gleaming with golden light.

Seeing this, Guangchengzi finally suppressed the resentment in his heart, his eyes filled with burning intensity: "Fortunately, there are still two tenths of Karma!"

"Xuandu, I am going to break through to the Quasi-Saint stage too!"

As Human Emperor Xuanyuan's teacher, Guangchengzi believed he could claim one tenth of the Karma for himself.

One tenth of the Karma would be enough for him to break through to the Quasi-Saint stage.

The other Golden Immortals also revealed expressions of anticipation. Master Taiyi rubbed his hands, his face full of eagerness: "We assisted the Human Emperor in unifying the Human Race; we deserve a share of this Karma!"

Seeing the expressions of the Twelve Golden Immortals, the three Great Witches, Great Witch Houyi, Feng Bo, and the Master of Rain, had eyes full of mockery.

Knowing the true value of the Human Race, the three Witches were all waiting to watch a good show.

Great Witch Houyi held a copy of the book of life and death, purple Qi pervading his surroundings. While processing the remnant souls of the Human Race, he muttered to himself: "I really hope the Human Dao sends them directly into Reincarnation; a bunch of cowards relying on the methods of the Saints."

Although Great Witch Houyi knew that the killing calamity of the Human Dao could not kill the disciples of the Saints, it did not stop him from hoping.

Shi Yan's indifferent gaze swept over the expectant Twelve Golden Immortals. With a light wave of his hand, the remaining two tenths of the Human Emperor's Karma golden light above the Nine Heavens finally crashed down!

One tenth of the dense golden light of Karma surged directly toward Guangchengzi, enveloping his entire being.

Guangchengzi was instantly ecstatic and laughed toward the sky: "Hahaha! As expected of me, claiming one tenth of the Karma for myself; Quasi-Saint realm, here I come!"

He immediately circulated his Chan Sect Cultivation Technique, impatient to absorb the Karma and break through his own cultivation Bottleneck, his eyes filled with excitement.

The remaining one tenth of the Karma dispersed evenly and fell into the bodies of the other eleven Golden Immortals.

"Such dense Karma, finally, our wish is fulfilled!"

Master Taiyi, Chijingzi, and the others had faces full of joy, shrouded in Karma. They felt their spiritual platforms clear, completely forgetting their previous dissatisfaction, focused only on circulating their Cultivation Technique, preparing to thoroughly absorb this portion of Human Dao Karma.

In the distance, the three Great Witches, Great Witch Houyi, Feng Bo, and the Master of Rain, saw this, and their mockery deepened. They exchanged glances, cold sneers curling their lips.

Great Witch Houyi continued to use the copy of the book of life and death and sneered: "The good show is about to start."

Feng Bo stood beside Chiyou, his tone full of mockery: "A bunch of idiots, do they really think Human Dao Karma is so easy to take?"

The Master of Rain snorted coldly in his heart: "Just wait, they won't be able to laugh for long."

With that, the distribution of Human Dao Karma was complete. Above the Nine Heavens, the winds and clouds suddenly changed! Boom, boom, boom!

Boundless pitch-black calamity clouds emerged from thin air, obscuring the sky and sun. Terrifying Human Dao calamity Qi surged and roared, its pressure sweeping across the entire Zhuolu Battlefield, and the world instantly became dim and devoid of light.

Looking at the calamity clouds above the Nine Heavens, everyone on the Zhuolu Battlefield had puzzled expressions, having no idea what was going on.

"What happened?" "After the Karma was distributed, why did so much Karma suddenly emerge?"

The Twelve Golden Immortals, who were just about to absorb the Karma, saw this scene and stopped their absorption, revealing curious expressions.

Before the Twelve Golden Immortals could think carefully, the pitch-black calamity clouds that obscured the sky and sun were already rolling downward. The terrifying Human Dao calamity Qi poured down like raging waves, aiming directly at the Twelve Golden Immortals who were shrouded in the golden light of Karma!

"Not good!" Guangchengzi's expression changed drastically, his ecstasy instantly freezing on his face, replaced by extreme panic. He subconsciously circulated his magic power and activated his Spirit Treasure to defend.

But it was all to no avail. The Qi of the killing calamity passed through the barriers formed by layers of Divine Ability and Spirit Treasures as if they were nothing, merging into his Primordial Spirit and canceling out his Karma.

"My Karma!" The other eleven Golden Immortals were also completely panicked. The Karma they had just obtained was canceling out with the calamity Qi, and no matter how they tried to resist, it was of no use.

In the blink of an eye, the Karma they had just received dissipated completely. Afterward, once all the Karma was gone, the excess calamity Qi, like maggots on bones, viciously drilled into their Primordial Spirits, rampaging and wreaking havoc.

"Pfft!" The Twelve Golden Immortals groaned in unison, their faces turning pale as paper, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths. Their magic power was in chaos, and they staggered backward, nearly falling to the ground.

The great beings of the entire scene were instantly in an uproar, completely exploding with commotion!

"This is... calamity Qi? Why would it target the Twelve Golden Immortals?" "It was clearly the time for distributing Karma, how could it attract such a terrifying calamity? It's too eerie!"

The Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao also stood up abruptly, their eyes fixed tightly on that patch of Human Dao calamity clouds, their expressions changing drastically as they all pinched their fingers to calculate.
