Chapter 260 Climbing
"If you want to achieve final victory, you must pay a certain price. The millions of immortal disciples are part of the price, and your countless demonic cultivators are also part of the price."
The Immortal Lord's voice was indifferent. The countless disciples who had perished in this great calamity were like ants in his eyes, not worthy of any attention.
"You hold the last Chaos Primordial Cauldron and want to use it to blackmail Taihao. Do you think he doesn't know that Taihao has the ambition to become the Primordial Dao Ancestor? How could he be willing to be controlled by you after becoming the Primordial Dao Ancestor?"
"You should have expected this long ago. Taihao would join forces with me because only I have the ability to snatch the Chaos Primordial Cauldron from your hands and hand it over to him. Only I can join forces with him after he becomes the Primordial Dao Ancestor to kill you!"
"After you die, Taihao will become the new Demon Lord, opening up a new demonic path. Only then will the immortal and demonic paths be in balance, and only then will the Qingluo Great World continue to operate forever. One path becoming the sole ruler is not in accordance with the general trend of the Heavenly Dao, nor with the wishes of Taihao and me."
A chilling killing intent appeared on the Immortal Lord's face. The boundless mountains and rivers on the Nine Provinces Stele emerged, and the power of the Heavenly Treasure was completely unsealed. The majestic and vast spiritual light of the treasure suppressed the Demon Lord's furious roar.
Mountains and rivers, heaven and earth, sun and moon all gathered around the Nine Provinces Stele as it crashed down. The pitch-black hammer had just risen when it was shattered by the sun, moon and stars surrounding the Nine Provinces Stele.
In the Origin of Heaven, the Immortal Lord and the Demon Lord engaged in a true war. The Demon Lord had advanced to the Primordial Dao Ancestor earlier and was stronger, while the Immortal Lord possessed the Nine Provinces Stele, making his magic weapon even stronger.
The Immortal Lord held a slight advantage in their battle, but it wasn't significant. It was utterly impossible for the Immortal Lord to kill the Demon Lord single-handedly.
As Fuxi watched the two Primordial Dao Ancestors locked in battle, he opened his mouth and inhaled, causing the vast fortune that permeated the Azure Luo Great World to transform into a torrent and flow into Fuxi's body.
For Fuxi, there were two ways to advance to the Primordial Dao Ancestor. One was to gather the Nine Cauldrons and use their power to forcibly seize the Heavenly Dao Origin of the Azure Luo Great World.
The other is to encompass the fortune of the Qingluo Great World during this era, using the fortune to elevate one's cultivation realm, and with the help of the Heavenly Dao, to advance to the Primordial Dao Ancestor.
Fuxi initially wanted to ascend to the Primordial Dao Ancestor using the Nine Cauldrons of Taiji, as this was the fastest method. However, the Primordial Chaos Cauldron was in the hands of the Demon Lord. Without defeating the Demon Lord, Fuxi would not be able to obtain the final cauldron.
Therefore, Fuxi could only choose to rely on luck to raise his cultivation to the level of Hunyuan Daozu.
Simply destroying the immortal path would not yield enough fortune for Fuxi to advance to the Primordial Dao Ancestor. In other words, the fortune gained from destroying the immortal path would require millions of years of slow accumulation before it would be enough for Fuxi to prove himself as the Primordial Dao Ancestor.
Fuxi had no intention of wasting so much time in the Azure Luo Great World, so when the Immortal Lord descended before, Fuxi secretly made a deal with the Immortal Lord.
The Immortal Lord helped Fuxi block the Demon Lord, while Fuxi destroyed all the demonic cultivators of the Azure Luo Great World and helped the Immortal Lord kill the Demon Lord.
The two hit it off immediately, without the Demon Lord's knowledge. Now, there are hardly any living beings left in the Azure Luo Great World. Whether the Azure Luo Heavenly Dao likes it or not, it has no choice but to choose Fuxi as the final victor of the Azure Luo Great World.
A massive amount of fortune converged, and Fuxi's cultivation level began to rise steadily.
While it may seem that there is only one realm between Chunyang Daojun and Hunyuan Daozu, the gap between these two realms is actually much greater than the gap between a mortal and Chunyang Daojun.
Ants and immortals—this is the best illustration of the power gap between the Primordial Dao Ancestor and the Pure Yang Dao Lord.
Even though Fuxi occupies eight of the nine cauldrons of Taiji, in the eyes of the Demon Lord and the Immortal Lord, he is just a somewhat troublesome ant, unable to sit on equal footing with them.
Surrounded by auspicious energy, Fuxi's eyes reflected a dark gray expanse, resembling the vast Qingluo world during the end of the Dharma era. His vision leaped forward, surpassing the Qingluo world and extending into the sea of chaos.
The magnificent Qingluo world was enveloped by Fuxi's divine sense, and the massive amount of chaotic matter was easily shattered by Fuxi.
Although Fuxi already possessed power far exceeding that of a Primordial Great Luo Dao Lord through the Root Reincarnation, this was indeed the first time Fuxi had touched upon the profound mysteries of the Primordial Great Luo Dao Lord realm.
In the blink of an eye, the world changes; with a single thought, the world is turned upside down.
Only after achieving the status of Hunyuan Daluo Daojun did Fuxi understand what Hunyuan Daluo Daojun represented: it was the supreme authority bestowed by the Heavenly Dao of a realm.
As long as the Heavenly Dao remains intact and the world remains intact, the Primordial Great Luo Dao Lord will be the strongest being in a realm. He may even be able to briefly draw upon the origin of the Heavenly Dao and integrate it into his own body, thus becoming the Heavenly Dao of a realm for a short period of time.
"Incredible. The gap between the Primordial Grand Luo Dao Lord and the Heavenly Dao of a Realm is not as large as I imagined. In terms of strength, the gap between the two is like an abyss. But in essence, as long as the Primordial Grand Luo Dao Lord can permanently bear the origin of the Heavenly Dao, he will naturally become the supreme Heavenly Dao of a Realm."
In Fuxi's eyes, all things were floating, and the eight cauldrons surrounded him. With one step, he appeared in the Origin of Heaven.
The Demon Lord looked at the suddenly appearing Fuxi with a gloomy expression, his body engulfed in demonic flames. He abandoned the Immortal Lord and attacked Fuxi.
Eight great cauldrons were lined up in a row. Fuxi clapped his right hand, and eight divine powers from the eight cauldrons were unleashed simultaneously. The absolute power that shook heaven and earth pierced through the surging demonic energy in front of the Demon Lord.
Amidst the intertwining of eight-colored divine light, Fuxi easily blocked the Demon Lord's enraged attack.
His expression grew increasingly cold, and with a wave of his hand, the Demon Lord unleashed countless demons that transformed into dark clouds, attacking Fuxi with a barrage of divine powers.
Fuxi showed no weakness, unleashing the divine powers residing within the eight great cauldrons in turn, firmly suppressing the Demon Lord's arrogance.
The Immortal Lord's eyes brightened slightly as he looked at the Demon Lord, who was being held back by Fuxi, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
Fuxi's combat power at this moment is much stronger than when he first became the Primordial Dao Ancestor, which makes it even more likely that he and Fuxi can join forces to kill the Demon Lord.
The Nine Provinces Stele crashed down, and eight great cauldrons slammed down. The Demon Lord roared and unleashed countless divine powers, but he could only barely block the Nine Provinces Stele. His physical body was crushed into mincemeat by the eight great cauldrons.
The demonic energy surged, and the Demon Lord reformed his physical body. Looking at the Nine Provinces Stele crashing down in front of him again, a look of fear flashed in his eyes. The two Primordial Dao Ancestors plus a Heavenly Dao Treasure could truly kill him.
Countless demonic lights pierced out from the Demon Lord's body, temporarily blocking the Nine Provinces Cauldron. With a palm strike, the Heavenly Dao Origin in the Heavenly Dao Source Land was forcibly controlled by the Demon Lord, transforming into a sky-covering demonic claw that temporarily repelled Fuxi.
With a flash of demonic energy, the Demon Lord transformed into a rainbow, attempting to escape the Heavenly Dao Source Land. Once he left the Heavenly Dao Source Land and temporarily hid in the Chaos Sea, even if the Immortal Lord and Fuxi joined forces, they would absolutely not be able to find his trace, let alone kill him.
