75: Chapter 75 Resurrection Begins, High Priest of the Three Pure Ones

Time flowed on. At the foot of Mount Sumeru, a massive altar appeared. Innate Sacred Beings were in the Void Realm, condensing the power of the Dao in their hands to form individual runes.

As these runes fell into the Void Realm and onto the altar, both time and space were completely locked down.

To complete this experiment, the Innate Sacred Beings were truly exerting their utmost effort.

Once successful, they would all have the hope of achieving the Hunyuan Realm.

On Mount Sumeru, Luo Hu took a step and arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Since Hongjun's true body was coming, he naturally needed to welcome him properly.

This matter required preparation in advance.

At Yujing Mountain, Hongjun wore a look of confusion. The three opportunities to act that Luo Hu had previously agreed upon with him had been used up so quickly.

There was a trace of bewilderment in his heart; he always felt as if he had been tricked again.

He cast his gaze upon the populous Yujing Mountain, where almost everyone was a most ordinary Innate Living Being; those who had reached the Golden Immortal and Taiyi levels were few and far between.

If one were to ask if there were any Daluo, there certainly were, but that was in the past.

As for now, those Daluo were almost all at Mount Sumeru.

For a moment, his expression was somewhat unsightly.

Up to now, he didn't even have a single Daluo under his command to guard Yujing Mountain.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something.

It seemed that was not entirely the case.

He still had a Disciple, Haotian, who had just recently advanced to the Daluo level. Although he was in seclusion at the time, he still possessed some basic intuition.

Letting him guard Yujing Mountain would suffice.

"Haotian, come quickly!"

On Yujing Mountain, a youth walked out of an Immortal Cave.

Hongjun, however, did not look happy; looking at Haotian before him, his expression was somewhat complex.

Who could tell him what was going on with the wisps of succubus aura on Haotian?

Haotian looked at the complex-faced Hongjun, feeling somewhat puzzled in his heart.

"Why is Master looking at me like that? I haven't done anything wrong. I usually get along quite well with the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa, the other Disciples of Master."

While Haotian was stunned, Hongjun spoke:

"Haotian, child, can you tell me what is going on with this aura on you? Such a heavy Demonic Path aura—do you think this is appropriate?"

As Hongjun spoke, he was practically gnashing his teeth.

Luo Hu had gone too far; he wouldn't even spare a Disciple.

If this continued, what would become of his Immortal Dao? He might as well rename it the Demonic Path Training Class.

In any case, once they achieved the Daluo level, those Innate Living Beings would be poached away.

A look of confusion appeared on Haotian's face, and he asked with a trace of surprise:

"Master, wasn't this arranged by you?"

"Didn't you send Senior Sister Nuwa into the Demonic Path to probe the foundation of the Demonic Path and understand its mysteries?"

"Senior Sister sent over the secret techniques of the Demonic Path and some succubi, saying it was for me to learn the method of Bewitching Heaven and Earth to achieve the Daluo level."

Haotian said, his face full of excitement. It had to be said that the secret techniques of the Demonic Path were indeed effective.

If the method Luo Hu used to help Lu Lin break through to Daluo was version 1.0 of the Demonic Path's Bewitching Heaven and Earth, he didn't know how many generations it had been updated since then.

Using this method within the Immortal Dao was simply too gratifying.

Hongjun looked at the excited Haotian before him and sighed helplessly.

"Gratifying? What's gratifying? Are there any good things in the Demonic Path that don't require paying a price?"

"This version seemed to have improved rapidly; it didn't even require facing the backlash of Heaven and Earth now."

"But the price had long been paid; Haotian's entire body of Karma had been drained into the negative."

"Where is there no price? It was just exchanged for Karma."

"Looking at the Karma on Haotian, it even had a tendency to condense into Karmic Fire."

At this moment, Hongjun suddenly felt a bit weary.

"Why not learn the step-by-step approach of the Immortal Dao instead of taking shortcuts by learning the Demonic Path?"

"But this was, after all, the only Daluo on Yujing Mountain besides himself. Even if he had taken a shortcut, as his Master, he could not just ignore him."

Without hesitation, he casually tossed out a portion of the authority over the Yujing Mountain Formation and said to Haotian:

"I am going to Mount Sumeru. I will give you control over the Yujing Mountain Formation for now. Use this time to properly control the Formation and convert Chaos Qi for Heaven and Earth."

"Otherwise, if it truly condenses into Karmic Fire, I wonder how long your true spirit can withstand the burning?"

"Also, it is fine to admire the succubi, but do not be like that idiot Ao Qing of the Dragon Clan and actually engage in Dual Cultivation with them."

"When Ao Qing broke through to Daluo, the Heavenly Charm also broke through. That stupid Dragon is still being suppressed."

Saying this, Hongjun turned and left.

Under his protection, Haotian had seen too little, after all.

Some things still needed to be warned about. He couldn't be like Ao Qing; never mind that That One had broken through to Daluo, even if it were Hunyuan, he would likely still be under the Heavenly Charm.

He certainly did not want his Disciple to end up in that situation.

Otherwise, if the Disciple he had painstakingly taught was suppressed by an ordinary succubus from the Demonic Path, he would likely be unable to hold his head up either.

Hongjun's figure gradually drifted away, but Haotian's eyes lit up.

With this Formation, he could earn some power of merit, making his Karma less severe, and he could continue to use the Dao of Enchantment to deceive Heaven and Earth for cultivation.

As for the Karma and the Karma owed to Heaven and Earth, he would think of a way when he reached the Peak of Daluo.

He was an Innate God-Demon; if he didn't take shortcuts, how could he keep up with those Innate Sacred Beings with peerless Comprehension Ability!

... At the foot of Mount Sumeru, Luo Hu was arranging the reception area.

Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something.

A beam of immortal light passed through the Formation covering the entire Western Continent and headed in the direction of Mount Sumeru.

"It has arrived. Quickly, get ready," Luo Hu said with a faint smile.

Following that, one succubus after another walked out—some enchanting, some flirtatious, some charming, some pure...

In short, all kinds of succubi were available.

"Welcome, Immortal Ancestor Hongjun, to our West."

The succubi giggled in the direction of Hongjun. If it were any Innate Living Being or Innate God-Demon with an unstable Dao Heart, they would have already fallen.

But Innate Sacred Beings were different; their Realm comprehension was extremely deep, and so-called succubi were merely manifestations of the Dao in their eyes.

Raising them to observe the Dao was fine; as for anything else, that was another matter.

As for beauty or ugliness, an Innate Sacred Being could use a single drop of their own blood and the Great Dao of Creation to create an incredibly beautiful woman.

"Fellow Daoist Luo Hu, I wonder when we shall begin."

From afar, Hongjun looked at these succubi with indifference and cut straight to the point.

Luo Hu chuckled softly, "Hehe, Fellow Daoist, why the rush? If you are in a hurry, we can begin now."

"Then I shall invite the sacrificers for this time to come to you."

"Grand Supreme Demon Master, Primal Demon Master, Tongtian Demon Master, do you three still want to receive the favor of Heaven and Earth? If you are unwilling to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, then don't blame me for giving it to other Daluo."

As the words fell, three Daluo walked out from Mount Sumeru.

At this moment, however, Luo Hu seemed to hear the sound of a heart breaking.
