145: Chapter 145 Xihe: I Want to Join the Demonic Path
"This is too much; Xihe shouldn't be doing this so openly."
Dijun thought to himself, though his expression remained normal as if he didn't care.
He had long since grown used to such matters.
His current positioning of himself was to be the figurehead on the surface; it was enough as long as the experts of the Heavenly Court maintained the respect due to him.
The deeper his understanding of those entities grew, the more he realized how terrifying those fellows were.
It wasn't as if he hadn't tried to win over the Innate Sacred Beings of the Endless Starry Sky and Jidu's faction.
The Innate Sacred Beings of the Endless Starry Sky were slightly better, merely avoiding him.
But the power of the Innate Sacred Beings brought by Jidu was simply frightening.
He glanced toward Taiyi, only to see that Taiyi's face was also incredibly calm at this moment.
Even though he knew this was somewhat humiliating, he remained silent.
He quietly stroked the large bell in his hands; at some point, a palm print had appeared on the bell's surface.
Although it was extremely shallow and was slowly being repaired.
But this was a world-opening supreme treasure, yet those so-called Loose Cultivators brought by Jidu had left such a mark on this Magic Treasure out of mere impatience.
It was likely that their Physical Bodies had already reached an incredibly terrifying level.
Thinking of this, he let out a sigh and spoke slowly:
"Fellow Daoist Jidu's methods are indeed profound. Since this matter is for the perfection of the Heavenly Court, why would I disagree?"
"I only hope that after Xihe becomes the Heavenly Queen, our Luck will preferably not be linked together."
Dijun directly proposed his condition. As the Heavenly Emperor, even if it was just a title, he could still obtain a significant amount of Karma and Luck.
This was one of the reasons why he continued to serve as the Heavenly Emperor.
Life might be a bit bitter, but there were some gains.
If the remaining Luck was divided further, there would truly be nothing left to play with.
With his strength, he was far from being able to contend with Jidu or those Innate Sacred Beings of the Endless Starry Sky.
In a one-on-one fight, he feared no one in the same Realm, but those beings never fought alone; they formed various Alliances.
They would directly group up; even against someone in the same Realm, he was no match for them once they had the numbers.
Furthermore, among them, there were beings at even higher levels.
As such, a mere Star Lord of the Sun Star like him, even with Taiyi added, would not be their match.
At this moment, Nuwa felt a bit of excitement; this condition was simply too easy for them.
Moreover, did they really think the position of Heavenly Emperor was good? No, this position was meant for taking the blame.
What kind of existence was the Demonic Path? Having mingled among them, how could she not know?
Although the Demonic Path might not necessarily destroy the world, at times, it would use any means necessary to achieve its goals.
Luo Hou had also vaguely revealed to her the Opportunity to become a Saint in the future.
Outside the Honghuang World, once those few worlds were annexed by this world, it would be a massive Opportunity.
By relying on this Karma, if she worked a bit harder, becoming a Saint was just around the corner.
But those Hunyuan Experts outside the domain were not fools; would they really just invade the moment they encountered a world? That was certainly impossible.
They would definitely test the waters first. If the world was similar or weaker than themselves, they could choose to attack or pursue Fusion.
But with the scale of the Primordial World, if they rushed in blindly, they wouldn't be looking for benefits or the hope of a Breakthrough, but rather seeking their own deaths.
If at this time, the world fell into chaos and the Endless Starry Sky shattered, wouldn't that be the best Opportunity?
Although after tricking those worlds into entering, they would use hidden measures to repair everything.
But during that period, that overwhelming Karma would likely fall directly upon the Heavenly Court.
This was when the true use of Dijun and Taiyi would come in.
If they could survive this tribulation, what would it matter if they were let go in the future? Regardless, after this experience, the Demonic Path would give birth to several new Hunyuan.
As for the Karma on them, the moment the Endless Starry Sky was repaired, it would naturally vanish.
Furthermore, by helping the Primordial World attract outside invaders, not only would there be no Karma, but it would actually be a merit to the world.
If they couldn't hold on and perished, then there was nothing else to say; at most, the world would shorten the time it took for them to return.
At this moment, Nuwa did not hesitate for a single second and said with a solemn face:
"Since Fellow Daoist has such a thought, how could we not agree? After all, between you and that Lunar Fairy, it is nothing more than a charade."
"Then let us hope that this time, the cooperation will be pleasant."
"Hahaha, good, a pleasant cooperation."
Dijun laughed heartily and said lightly... In the Endless Starry Sky, on the Jidu Star, the aura on Jidu was ethereal and supreme. He gazed longingly at the Endless Starry Sky, deducing the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array and the potential flaws in this plan.
At this time, starlight flickered. Outside the Jidu Star, the Lunar Fairy Xihe officially stepped onto the Jidu Star.
Daoist Jidu's face seemed to frown slightly. Xihe looked at the familiar figure before her, revealed a faint smile, and then spoke:
"Jidu... no, right now you should be Daoist Luo Hou, right?"
On the Jidu Star, Jidu, who was sensing whether there were any gaps in the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array, showed a look of displeasure and spoke with a hint of coldness:
"What if I am Jidu? What if I am Luo Hou? For us, is identity important? Fellow Daoist Xihe, you probably didn't come here for the sake of my identity."
Jidu's tone was very indifferent, appearing extremely calm regarding her suspicion of his identity.
The Heavenly Court's prestige was already high enough. For those ordinary Innate Living Beings recruited, he had already begun to influence their cultivation methods with the Demonic Path in secret.
Right now, nothing seemed amiss on the surface, but in reality, the true Demonic Path was already quietly reviving.
At this moment, Xihe let out a light laugh. "Hehe, it might not be important to you, but it is extremely important to us."
Xihe looked at Jidu before her and said:
"If you were just Daoist Jidu, then we would still be close friends."
"But if you are the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou of the ancient era, then I have only one request. Please, Lord Demon Ancestor, let me join the Demonic Path."
Xihe spoke with a powerful voice, her eyes filled with incomparable determination.
As Innate Sacred Beings, none of them were fools. For Luo Hou to be able to incarnate as Daoist Jidu and even take control of the real power of the Heavenly Court, one could imagine what that implied.
The Heavenly Dao was no fool. For an existence like you, who had transcended the world and caused it heavy losses, to want to enter Honghuang.
Even if your Karma was profound, it wouldn't work.
In that case, there was only profit—the profit that the Heavenly Dao and the many experts of the Demonic Path wanted to obtain.
Outsiders certainly wouldn't be able to get a share; the best way was to join them.
