67: Zhang Yinyang: Hongjun, I'm afraid Luo Hou will misunderstand.
Inside the Yin Yang Demonic Dynasty, the Yin Yang Demon Lord had a sincere look on his face.
At their Realm, isn't it all for that supreme Hunyuan Realm?
Following Hongjun to establish the Immortal Path and creating the Yin Yang Demonic Dynasty—did anyone really think these Innate Sacred Beings had nothing better to do?
No, all of this was to pursue the path to Hunyuan, to pursue a Realm Above Great Luo.
They also understood the path of the Saint that Hongjun sought; if there were no other choices, they would naturally take that path.
But according to their deductions, the number of Saints was limited.
They had not yet become true Saints, so they were currently unsure how many Saints this world could accommodate.
The limited number of Saints and the difficulty involved meant that immeasurable Luck and Karma were required to take that final step.
The Yin Yang Demon Lord's current Karma and Luck were far from enough to meet the conditions for becoming a Saint.
As for the future, even these Innate Sacred Beings could not control it.
Because this was the Primordial World, where the River of Time and the River of Fate surged toward the future; even Innate Sacred Beings would suffer unprecedented backlash.
Rahu watched this scene, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
"Hehe, 'willing to die for this Ancestor of the Demonic Path'—it certainly sounds nice."
"But Fellow Daoist's true body is at Yujing Mountain. Do you think this is appropriate?"
Hearing this, the Yin Yang Demon Lord frowned slightly and asked with some confusion:
"Fellow Daoist Rahu, what do you mean then?"
"Don't misunderstand; I just suddenly thought of it, that's all."
Rahu said with a smile, and the Yin Yang Demon Lord had already made a decision in his heart.
If he could truly complete the final Breakthrough or open the Bottleneck on the path to Hunyuan, he wouldn't mind truly joining the Demonic Path.
As for the Immortal Path, he was sorry, but compared to the Hunyuan Great Dao, it was time to put an end to his many years of relationship with Hongjun.
Of course, the premise was that Rahu could truly set him on the Hunyuan Great Dao.
Otherwise, don't blame him for turning hostile.
True Innate Sacred Beings were often incredibly pragmatic; their lifespans were immeasurably long, and only the path to greater power was what they pursued.
Power, influence, and so-called Disciples could all be abandoned if their true bodies had a chance to progress further.
Moreover, if they achieved Hunyuan, they could reverse time and space, forcefully withstanding the backlash of the Primordial World; even resurrecting a Great Luo would only cost a certain price.
Because such existences truly transcended the Primordial World; within the world, their Dao could never stand above the world itself.
Whether it was reversing time or resurrecting living beings, it could only be done within the world's tolerance; otherwise, a terrifying backlash would occur, causing their Realm to drop.
After achieving Hunyuan, as long as they could personally withstand the backlash—since they had achieved Hunyuan—at worst, they could just run into Chaos if they encountered the so-called backlash.
After reflecting for a moment, there was no longer a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
"What the Lord Ancestor of the Demonic Path says is absolutely correct. In the face of the Hunyuan Great Dao, it would indeed be somewhat inappropriate for me to remain within the Immortal Path."
"In that case, as long as Fellow Daoist is willing to tell me how to break through to Hunyuan, I will withdraw from the Immortal Path and henceforth be a member of the Demonic Path."
"Very well!"
"Since that's the case, I shall tell you, Fellow Daoist: to achieve Hunyuan, one simply needs to sacrifice a Chaos Demon God."
The Yin Yang Demon Lord's expression changed slightly. A Chaos Demon God? Where would he find a Chaos Demon God?
Furthermore, even if he found one, would he be able to defeat it?
Rahu did not hesitate; with a wave of his hand, a divine light entered the Yin Yang Demon Lord's body.
Rahu hadn't used such a thing in a very long time.
It was the Dao and Laws of the Chaos Demon Gods; as long as one cultivated them, they could turn themselves into a part of a Chaos Demon God.
No, to be precise, it was to allow a Chaos Demon God to revive within one's own body.
In the dark, it connected to the Dao of the Chaos Demon Gods within the endless Sea of Chaos.
Feeling the contents within, the Yin Yang Demon Lord's expression changed slightly; he had to admire Rahu for being so incredibly bold.
It made him feel fear.
Allowing a Chaos Demon God to revive within his body, with sacrifice runes inscribed on his Physical Body—the moment it revived, it would be sacrificed directly to the Primordial World.
"This matter indeed seems to have some possibility of success,"
the Yin Yang Demon Lord thought to himself. Rahu had even revealed another piece of information to him.
If a Chaos Demon God truly revived in the future, Hongjun would also take action.
Well, were those three opportunities for assistance exchanged for nothing?
What use would this Opportunity be against an enemy that even Rahu could handle?
If he could win, he could just fight himself.
Asking Hongjun to fight—did he really think Rahu couldn't wield his blade anymore?
The Yin Yang Demon Lord looked toward the immeasurable Chaos; given the current situation, there really seemed to be no hope for the Immortal Path.
Becoming a Saint in a short time was impossible, so it was better to take a gamble.
Without hesitation, he communicated with his true body on Yujing Mountain... Yujing Mountain, the ancestral court of the Immortal Path; with the Demonic Path not recruiting much lately, the Immortal Path could be said to be growing stronger by the day.
Of course, those who joined were all ordinary Innate Living Beings.
Occasionally, some who broke through to the Immortal and Taiyi Realms were poached by the Demonic Path.
Rahu's Demonic Path Cram School had appeared, and those in the Immortal and Taiyi Realms were no fools.
How many innate magic treasures could Yujing Mountain give them every Yuanhui, and how many innate spiritual objects?
It could be said there were none at all.
The Immortal Path couldn't afford it, and its existence focused more on excellence.
If Hongjun were to nurture anyone, it would certainly be the elite among them.
Inside Zixiao Palace, the atmosphere was somewhat strange.
Hongjun sighed helplessly, wanting to continue his persuasion.
"Fellow Daoist Yin Yang, do you really want to leave the Immortal Path? Isn't it good to receive two sets of benefits right now?"
"You can obtain the Luck of the Immortal Path and the benefits of the Demonic Path; why leave the Immortal Path for no reason?"
Daoist Yin Yang's expression was heavy as he said softly:
"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, it's really not that I don't want to stay in the Immortal Path."
"The Demonic Path holds my Opportunity to achieve Hunyuan; my true body has no choice but to leave the Immortal Path."
"The Opportunity to become a Saint—can you afford to give it to me, Fellow Daoist?"
For a moment, Hongjun was silent, somewhat at a loss for words.
After a while, he slowly spoke:
"Fellow Daoist Yin Yang, won't you really reconsider? Just because the Demonic Path says there's an Opportunity to achieve Hunyuan doesn't mean there is. If it's a lie, wouldn't you suffer a heavy loss?"
At this moment, Daoist Yin Yang's expression changed slightly. Could he not tell for himself whether he was being deceived?
If they parted on good terms, they could still be friends.
If Rahu didn't give real benefits, would he leave?
This was simply questioning his judgment.
Thinking of this, he did not hesitate and said coldly:
"Enough. As for whether it's real or not, I will naturally judge for myself."
"By the way, from now on, don't call me Fellow Daoist; call me Fellow Demon, alright? I'm afraid Rahu might misunderstand."
