After saying this, Hou Yi laughed wildly, his voice filled with a sense of loneliness and sorrow.
Di Jun said, "I will repay the karma of my child. I do not care how many lives have been lost in the world. I only know that I, Di Jun, am the father of the Golden Crow. How can a father not seek revenge for his son's death?"
"How can a father not avenge the death of his son?" Hou Yi repeated these words over and over, his voice filled with sorrow. "My brother died, my family died, and I could avenge them. Your son died, and I can avenge him as well. I, Hou Yi, am a great and upright man of the Wu tribe. I have avenged him, and my wish has been fulfilled. Now I come to repay the debt for your child's name." With that, he mustered his remaining magical power and prepared to self-destruct.
Green light appears, and Hou Yi is born.
From the far west, a Taoist priest flew gracefully and said to Hou Yi, "I see that you have a connection with the West, so I have come to ferry you across."
Hou Yi laughed loudly: "I am a member of the Wu tribe, a child of the father god Pangu, born of the East, and will die with an Eastern soul."
The Taoist priest angrily said, "Fine, fine," and then swung his staff at Hou Yi.
The Taoist priest is Zhunti, one of the two Western Saints. His staff is the Bodhi Staff, imbued with the power of a sage and the strength of a primordial spiritual treasure. Could Hou Yi have created such a person?
A flash of golden light appeared, Hou Yi was born, and the Empress was wounded.
It turned out that the Heavenly Empress had been traveling through the prehistoric world for thousands of years. She saw the seven suns shining brightly in the sky and was puzzled. So she immediately flew to Buzhou Mountain and saw Zhunti swinging his staff at Houyi. She used the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Reincarnation to save him. However, the power of a sage and the strength of an innate spiritual treasure were not easy to deal with. She immediately spat out blood and was seriously injured.
When the Heavenly Queen arrived here, she saw that the earth was cracked, flowers, grass and trees were gone, tens of millions of living beings had died, and tens of millions of souls were dissolved by the innate spiritual energy in a short time and ceased to exist.
The Empress saw the helpless struggles of the dead, tears streaming down her face, her heart weeping.
Looking at the twelve-petaled golden lotus of reincarnation in her hand, the Heavenly Empress murmured, "The soul has nowhere to return, what should I do? How can I save all living beings in the world? How can I give all living beings a place to rest after death? Who can tell me?" "Who can tell me?" Houtu cried out in anguish, tears streaming down her face, soaking the ravaged and desolate land.
"Master, Master, tell me, how can I save all living beings in the world?" the Heavenly Empress prayed, looking up at the sky.
Chapter 45: The Battle for the Supreme Treasure of the Virtuous Goddess (Part 1)
Suddenly, the Heavenly Empress smiled, a sweet and beautiful smile. Looking at the twelve-petaled golden lotus of reincarnation in her hand, she murmured to herself, "Reincarnation, reincarnation, so you were right here in my hands all along."
The Heavenly Queen prayed to the heavens, saying: "Heaven is above. I am the Ancestral Witch Heavenly Queen. I have traveled through the primordial world for thousands of years and have seen that the souls and spirits of living beings do not return to their homeland after death. Now I wish to use my Ancestral Witch body to create the Underworld of Reincarnation, so that all living beings in the world may have a place to rest and be reborn after death, and have the opportunity to be reincarnated. I am willing to sacrifice my life to establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation, so that all living beings in the world may be born again and again without end. The Six Paths of Reincarnation have appeared."
Instantly, six cave entrances radiating nameless, mysterious light appeared in the sky. Some were filled with ethereal energy, some with a bloody aura, some glowed red, some emitted howling sounds like countless wild beasts, some were eerie and sinister, and one entrance was completely dark, as if it wanted to devour everything. These were the six realms of reincarnation: the Heavenly Realm, the Asura Realm, the Human Realm, the Animal Realm, the Hungry Ghost Realm, and the Hell Realm.
The Heavenly Way is the Immortal Way. The Asura Way has not yet been born. The Human Way is the realm of mortals. The Animal Way is formed from the souls of animals after death or from the reincarnation of the most wicked people. The Hungry Ghost Way is the dwelling place of countless ghosts. The Hell Way is the dwelling place of the most evil of evils and the most ghostly of ghosts.
On Penglai Island, in the Heavenly Underworld Palace, Tianming, who was in seclusion, received a telepathic message from the Great Sage Equaling Heaven: "Tianming, your opportunity has come. Go to Buzhou Mountain to find your junior sister, the Heavenly Empress."
Looking at the six cave entrances of Buzhou Mountain, the Heavenly Empress saw that the other newly formed beings had souls entering them, but the Asuras, with their flowing blood energy, had no souls entering. Therefore, the cycle of reincarnation in the six realms was incomplete, and thus they did not have the true ability to reincarnate. They could only serve as a place for the souls and spirits of the beings to reside.
Houtu frowned, deep in thought, when a call interrupted her.
“Junior Sister Empress, your brother has come,” Tianming said.
The Empress asked, puzzled, "Senior brother, what brings you here?"
Tianming said, "I came here on my master's orders. My master said, 'My time has come, and I have come to Buzhou Mountain to find you.'" As he spoke, he was drawn to the six mysterious cave entrances floating in the air. He looked at them and fell into deep thought, no longer speaking.
Zhunti remained silent, Dijun was confused, the Empress was confused, and Houyi was even more bewildered.
Zhunti pondered the meaning of "the opportunity of the Heavenly Netherworld has arrived," when suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him. He recalled a sentence from thousands of years ago: "Zhenyi, your opportunity has arrived. Stand firm against the Heavenly Tribulation and become a saint." He was immediately shocked, thinking: Penglai already has two saints, there is also a master of the laws of time, and a saint with at least saintly cultivation. If another saint emerges, there will be no place for my Western Sect to settle down.
With a thought, Zhunti's hand produced another staff, which shone with seven-colored divine light; it was none other than the Seven Treasures Tree.
As Zhunti took out the Seven Treasures Tree Staff, he forgot that the Golden Crow still had a survivor. When the tenth Golden Crow saw the staff he had seen in his dream, he immediately understood and started croaking incessantly, but no one understood him. Only Dijun glanced at Zhunti, deep in thought.
Zhunti waved his hand and sent two staffs flying, striking towards the spirits of Tianhou and Tianming. Everyone was stunned, never expecting that Zhunti, a saint, would actually launch a sneak attack on two quasi-saints.
Hou Yi saw this and shouted, "Lady Houtu, be careful!"
Di Jun also unleashed the Hunyuan Hetu Luoshu Great Array to cover the two, but it was as fragile as paper under the power of a sage. Di Jun spat out blood as he watched the Hetu and Luoshu return in mourning.
