Chapter 84: The Beginning of the Dao Disc
Upon hearing the words of the Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable, Dao Xuanling immediately said, "Don't even think about it."
Shenguang Yumeng also said, "We have come here to resolve the matter of immortals and demons. We hope that you will each make some concessions and ensure the peace of the Three Heavens."
Demon Lord: "How do we back down?"
The Boundless Primordial said: "The demonic ghosts should return to the second-tier heaven and not attempt to reach the third-tier heaven. As for the demon race, they can temporarily remain in the first-tier heaven, and their future destiny will be determined by the will of Heaven."
Demon Lord: "So, this newly created Dao Disc is still occupied by you?"
Shenguang Yumeng: "This newly formed Dao Disc is the evolution of the Dao. We and its primordial spirit were born in the primordial world, and none of us can destroy it. Another beginning of humanity will take place on this Dao Disc. As for its rise and fall, let us witness it together!"
At this moment, Innate Boundless said, "This Dao Disc was born from absurdity and originated from the Mysterious Beginning. Its development will be jointly overseen by the Lord of the Desolate Realm and the Lord of the Mysterious Spirit. What do you think?"
The Yellow Emperor said, "That would be perfect."
Dao Xuanling: "To unite without seeking anything is the best choice."
The Demon Lord laughed loudly, "In the beginning of chaos and the dawn of the Profound Spirit, we have undergone several rebirths. Each time, the Dao Disc of new life was controlled by the Immortal Lord, and in the end, it was still the rising humans of the Spirit Race who brought about destruction. It is the true law of Heaven that allows our Demon Spirit Race to control the new Dao Disc!"
Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable: "Absurd! Demonic spirits are bloodthirsty and corrupt living beings. Our dragon race suffered a devastating massacre at your hands. This blood debt will be repaid with your annihilation today."
The Demon Lord laughed loudly, "Come on! This battle will grant your wish!"
The demonic spirit manifested in countless forms, corrupting the consciousness of all living beings behind the Dragon Maiden. Instantly, many creatures lost their nature, filled with murderous intent, and charged towards the Nine Dragon Immortal Venerable.
The Boundless Primordial roared, "Unforgivable!" Instantly, a surge of righteous energy struck the Demon Lord.
Seeing the creatures spiraling out of control, the Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable unleashed a thousand blades, brutally slaughtering them. The Human-Dragon Woman, witnessing this, used a powerful attack to block, and immediately cried out to Xuanling, "Xuanling, help me!"
Dao Xuanling understood immediately, and began to circulate his energy, transforming consciousness into spirit. With the initial lotus pod in his hand, he purified the demonic energy tainted by the living beings. In a moment, the demonic energy was dissolved, and the living beings regained their own spiritual consciousness.
The Great Yellow Emperor and Divine Light Jade Dream unleashed their ultimate moves to fight against countless demonic spirits. Innate Boundless and the Demonic Spirit Lord had already exchanged several blows; both were illusory and spiritual entities, making it difficult for them to harm or control each other.
Although countless demonic spirits were rampant, they could not withstand the might of the Xuanling Lord. With a single, fierce attack, some of them had already purified the void, and the remaining demonic spirits dared not approach easily.
The Great Yellow Emperor, who was of the same Heavenly Dao, used his Daoist technique to capture countless demonic spirits.
Shenguang Yumeng: "Lord of the Desolate Realm, join forces to capture the king."
Upon hearing this, the Great Yellow Emperor instantly understood. The two spirits coordinated their attacks, and the Innate Boundless, seeing this, also praised and absorbed the energy. The three spirits combined their power to control the demonic spirit's body.
Innate Boundless: "Use your Yuan Power again to send it into the Second Line Heaven."
Upon hearing this, the two spirits, Divine Light and Jade Dream, released their own vital energy and sent the demon spirit into the second-tier heaven in one fell swoop.
The demon spirit, now under control and unable to escape, cried out, "You dare to seal me away, you evil spirits!"
Seeing this, Dao Xuanling released his inner sword, which carried spiritual energy and formed a sword net, forcing countless demonic spirits in the clouds all the way to the second-tier heaven.
Upon seeing this, Shenguang Yumeng hurriedly shouted, "Seal the Heavenly Rift!"
The three spirits immediately withdrew their attacks and joined forces again to seal the Heavenly Rift. Taking advantage of this moment, the Demon Lord, along with thousands of demon spirits, forcefully rushed into the Heavenly Rift, and the two sides were locked in a stalemate.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Xiantian Wuyai hurriedly shouted, "Dao Xuanling! What are you still hesitating for?!"
Upon hearing this, the Demon Lord also shouted, "Dao Xuanling, the Dao of Heaven, manifests in Yin and Yang and nature. You said you wouldn't interfere!"
Upon hearing this, Dao Xuanling closed his eyes, summoned his Heart Sword, and immediately activated the seal. Instantly, the four elemental energies formed a powerful seal, suppressing the rift in the sky and sealing the demonic spirit race within the second-tier heaven.
Just then, the Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable, seeing the Dragon Girl alone, unleashed a powerful attack, severely injuring her. The Dragon Girl, severely wounded, fell from the clouds and was forced back into her original form, which was actually a dragon-bodied human.
Upon seeing this, Dao Xuanling transformed into a spirit and caught the dragon girl, landing her on the newly formed Dao Disc.
Dao Xuanling cried out anxiously, "Dragon Girl, you'll be alright! You'll be alright!"
The dragon woman's voice was weak, and she whispered through tears, "Xuanling, my dragon essence has been scattered, I cannot survive."
Dao Xuanling cried and said, "I will find a way to gather the Dragon Essence for you again."
The dragon girl laughed through her tears, "Xuanling, promise me you will protect them for me." As she spoke, she looked at the lower beings behind her.
Dao Xuanling nodded, tears streaming down her face, and said, "Alright, I will definitely protect them."
As the dragon woman's spiritual energy weakened, her body also became ethereal.
Dao Xuanling turned around and said to the Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable, "She is of the same clan as you, why did you use such a heavy hand?"
The Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable said calmly, "She was a traitor to the dragon race long ago. Our race was born in the Flame Abyss Star River and does not invade the yellow earth. But she led several dragons out of the Flame Abyss and stayed at the Luya Spoon for several months, causing her dragon body to mutate, becoming half-demon and half-dragon."
Upon hearing this, Xiantian Wuyai immediately said, "Yuan Jiulong, as you said, you are also a monster! I think the Dragon Girl is actually quite beautiful after her mutation. She calls herself a human-dragon race. Isn't it good that the Divine River Realm has an extra race?"
Upon hearing this, the Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable angrily cursed, "Old monster, I will devour you sooner or later!"
Shenguang Yu dreamt that Dao Xuanling was deeply saddened, and comforted her, saying, "Dao Xuanling, do not grieve. The Human Dragon Girl was also born from the beginning of chaos. Presumably, like us, her primordial spirit will be reborn after many years."
Upon hearing this, Dao Xuanling closed his eyes, tears streaming down his face, and felt a deep sorrow for a long time.
At this moment, the Yellow Emperor spoke to him, saying, "Dao Xuanling, let me ask you one more question: do you still insist on the coexistence of all spirits?"
Dao Xuanling solemnly said, "My origins have never changed."
Upon hearing this, the Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable angrily cursed, "Utterly foolish! Destroy them, and we will live forever and roam freely in the Nine Heavens Cloud River."
Dao Xuanling: "The Dao gives birth to all spirits, and all spirits are protected by the Dao. How can you, with your strength, destroy the weak among us?"
Xiantian Wuya declared, "Alright, Yuan Jiulong, the Human Dragon Girl was born in the Flame Abyss with you, but now she has vanished into nothingness. The struggle among all spirits has already disgusted me."
Shenguang Yumeng: "Dao Xuanling is absolutely right. The coexistence of all living beings is the essence of the Dao. I do not agree with eliminating lower beings."
Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable: "You will regret this, you inferior beings. They are always greedy and will bring us calamities sooner or later."
The Great Yellow Emperor said, "Since that's the case, I have a suggestion that can allow all living beings to coexist and also protect us from calamities!"
Innate Boundless: "What's your brilliant idea? Tell me quickly, so I can be happy!"
The Great Yellow Emperor said, “This newly created Dao Disc is useless to us; it is merely an extra space for Qi. Perhaps we can give it to a lower-level being to provide a place for them to live. But we must push it into the Narrow Sky and seal the Narrow Sky seam, so that the two will be separated and can no longer be connected.”
Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable: "That is a solution! Although there are many stars in the One Line Sky, they lack water, fire, qi, and earth, which are not suitable for our survival. Sealing them up is also an option."
Upon hearing this, Shenguang Yumeng immediately said, "After they are sealed, they will turn into nothingness in the first celestial body. Will they be reborn in other realms, causing the celestial bodies to become unbalanced?"
Innate Boundless: "Don't worry about that. Lower beings are naturally capable of multiplying and giving birth. As long as the One Line Sky remains unbroken, they will not die out. As for what form they will take later, that is unknown. But if they transform into spirits and enter other realms, unless they carry a cultivation body, otherwise, if a long-beaked beast is born in the Immortal Realm, wouldn't it still be smashed by Yuan Jiulong until its spiritual essence is scattered?"
Nine Dragons Immortal Venerable: "Old Demon Spirit! I will never forget your praise!"
The Great Yellow Emperor said: "If a spirit carrying a body of cultivation enters the realm, unless it has cultivated the profound Dao, then there is no need to worry about entering the other realm."
Shenguang Yumeng: "Dao Xuanling, do you agree with this proposal?"
Dao Xuanling immediately said, "Leaving a narrow passage is still a vast space, and I am very grateful. I would like to ask the Spirit Lords to lend me a hand."
