Ye Xuan swore in his heart. He could not help but recall bits and pieces of Sun Wukong, completely immersed in his own thoughts.
Time passed little by little. The five-colored divine stone gradually melted until it turned into a radiance that blotted out the sky and appeared in the firmament.
This was a heaven-mending merit, as well as an opportunity to become a Saint. Everyone was watching the birth of a new Heavenly Saint.
"Go!"
Ziwei roared majestically in the void above the firmament. The radiance that blotted out the sky rippled out from his hand, covering the broken firmament for hundreds of millions of miles and gradually repairing it.
Rumble!
The Heavenly Merit was vast and boundless. When Ziwei repaired the firmament, endless golden light of merit was born out of thin air from all directions, instantly surging toward Ziwei.
Buzz!
The Primordial Violet Qi swayed and fused into Ziwei's head in front of everyone's eyes. He also burst out with endless holy light in an instant, and waves of terrifying Heavenly Divine Might permeated the air.
At the same time, the boundless golden light of merit filled the sky and earth. The members of the Celestial Court sat down cross-legged to cultivate and absorb the scattered power of merit. The various orthodoxies and Quasi-Saints were not willing to be left behind, and all of Mount Buzhou fell into silence.
This was heaven-mending merit, an extremely nourishing item. Not only did it significantly increase one's cultivation, but it could also enhance one's understanding of the Heavenly Dao.
On the Heavenly Platform.
Ye Xuan and Luo Hou sat side by side. Only the two of them did not absorb the power of merit. Luo Hou even took a sip of the wine in his cup, but when he opened and closed his eyes, there was only contempt and disdain.
"Although the Heavenly Merit can increase one's cultivation, it's shackled by this world. Who would understand such a stupid thing to gain small benefits and lose the Great Dao!" Luo Hou said disdainfully.
"All things are born to nurture humans, but humans have nothing to repay the Heavens. Since all living beings are born from heaven and earth, they naturally have to submit to the Heavenly Dao." Ye Xuan said calmly.
"Hehe."
Luo Hou smiled faintly as he looked at Ye Xuan and said, "Fellow Daoist is right. However, you and I are not included in this list. We can completely transcend the heavens and earth and obtain great freedom until we become the Saint of Saints."
"Oh?"
Ye Xuan smiled. He looked at Luo Hou and said, "Freedom can be obtained, but freedom is hard to find. The cage of the Heavenly Dao is not so easy to break free from. I still need to ask Fellow Daoist for advice on this."
"The so-called Heavenly Dao Dragon Prison is nothing more than the laws of this world. The laws of the Heavenly Dao restrict us. If we want to break the laws, we need to possess strength that surpasses the laws." Luo Hou smiled.
"Then I wonder if you have the strength to break the rules?" Ye Xuan chuckled.
"Perhaps not in the past, but now it is."
Weng!
As Luo Hou spoke, a boundless aura of the mortal world circulated around him. Although this aura was extremely weak, it truly existed on Luo Hou's body.
"Hmm?"
When he felt the aura on Luo Hou's body, Ye Xuan's expression suddenly changed. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes as he looked at Luo Hou.
"This is … the Boundless Mortal World Technique?" Ye Xuan said word by word.
"Fellow Daoist has good eyesight."
Luo Hou withdrew his aura and regained his calm. He said, "When the Boundless Mortal World Technique is cultivated to the extreme, it can produce the power of karma. Fellow Daoist, on the other hand, is walking the path of strength, which can produce the legendary power of nirvanic destruction. These two powers surpass the laws of heaven and earth and can completely break through the shackles of heaven and earth."
Looking at the bright smile on Luo Hou's face, Ye Xuan regained his composure. He said, "But as far as I know, Dao Zu Hong Jun integrated with the Dao. The Heavenly Way is him, and he is the Heavenly Way. I'm afraid that before you and I can cultivate these two powers, he will kill us, right?"
"So, one of the Nine Tribulations of the Heavenly Way is Hongjun, and I'm afraid that my Nine Tribulations of the Mortal World Technique will also encounter him. Today, I met Fellow Daoist just to form good karma with you. Only if you and I join hands can we overcome this tribulation." Luo Hou sighed.
"Ridiculous, extremely ridiculous."
Suddenly, Ye Xuan's smile disappeared. He looked at Luo Hou coldly and said, "Do you think that what you did from Nüwa to Wutian can really form good karma with me?"
The thin layer of window paper was pierced through by Ye Xuan. Since the two of them had already spoken to this point, it was useless to continue feigning civility.
"Ye Xuan, you are still too young, and you care too much about trivial matters. Whether it is Nüwa or my disciple Sen Luotian, they are just chess pieces in our hands. On the road to becoming a Saint, they are just bones under our feet. It is not enough for us to be hostile to each other."
Luo Hou spoke frankly with assurance, and then pointed to Gu Beichen who was cultivating. He said, "When you sent him to my Devil World, I discovered his identity immediately, but so what?"
"I accepted him as my disciple, and even taught him all my Devil Skills, and even gave him the Eight Changes of the Devil Sky. Do you really think that I valued his cultivation aptitude?"
"As for the so-called Nüwa and Wutian, I was just testing you to see if you are qualified to join forces with me. Do you still not understand?"
Luo Hou spoke proudly, without any trace of humility. Instead, he looked around at everyone and said, "Ye Xuan, you and I are the same. We only care about ourselves. Others are just ants in our eyes. Only when you and I join forces can we break free from the world. You should understand this principle."
Stirring people's hearts and speaking with certainty, Luo Hou's demeanor was too dazzling. Just his words alone made Ye Xuan's eyes dazed.
The Devil Ancestor was the Devil Ancestor after all. His words were straightforward and powerful, and they really shook Ye Xuan's mind.
At this moment.
Luo Hou looked at Ye Xuan's dazed expression, and a trace of undetectable joy flashed across his eyes. He wanted to continue speaking, but Ye Xuan regained his calm and looked at him indifferently.
Clap — Clap — Clap.
Ye Xuan clapped slightly, and the rhythmic sound made Luo Hou frown slightly, and he looked at Ye Xuan with narrowed eyes.
"Powerful and impassioned. The Devil Ancestor is indeed the Devil Ancestor. I, Ye Xuan, am not as good as you in the ability to bewitch people." Ye Xuan praised.
"Ye Xuan, you …?" Luo Hou's expression changed slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
"To be honest, what you said is indeed correct, and there is no flaw. But you forgot one thing, an extremely important thing."
Ye Xuan said indifferently, and continued, "You forgot that you and I are the same kind of people. Although you hide it very deeply, I can see something called ambition in your eyes."
"Your eyes tell me that you have great ambition. You are a selfish, sinister, and ruthless person. The so-called alliance is just a beautiful excuse. You want to get something from me. That is your real goal, isn't it?" Ye Xuan sipped the wine in his cup and looked at Luo Hou calmly.
