With a whoosh, the Saints turned and left without any hesitation, leaving the various mighty figures stunned.
Even the Dao Ancestor could only soften his stance and could not force Celestial Daoist Chang Sheng and Houtu to obey his commands.
Are these two truly Heaven-Defying?
But in the Netherworld, Celestial Daoist, or rather, from now on, he was Fengdu the Great.
Fengdu looked up at the sky, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes, and said to Houtu, "Fellow Daoist, it seems that from now on, we will be trapped in this Netherworld."
Although Hongjun did not force them to agree, and although the Saints retreated.
But this did not mean they had won.
Because no matter whether they agreed or not, Hongjun's meaning was the same: those who did not obey him could not leave the Netherworld.
Otherwise, if they left the Netherworld, they would immediately face Hongjun's suppression and slaughter.
Houtu nodded, smiled, and said, "No matter what, I am grateful to Fellow Daoist for being alive here now."
"Moreover, if Hongjun wants to trap me, he can only trap me for a while, how can he trap me for an eternity?"
Houtu's words, however, revealed a sense of determination.
She truly wasn't like a delicate woman, without so many convoluted thoughts.
Instead, she appeared very heroic and passionate, possessing a unique and captivating charm that made people admire her.
Even Hongjun could not make her feel defeated or compromise.
Seeing her like this, Fengdu was also stunned, and said with a smile, "That's good!"
"No matter what, we now occupy the Netherworld, which is equivalent to having a foothold in the Primordial World."
"If Hongjun and the Saints want to contend with us, we can advance or retreat freely!"
"In a sense, this is also our advantage! The Six Paths of Reincarnation is crucial, and even if Hongjun is stronger, he wouldn't dare to destroy this place."
"This gives us an opportunity!"
Fengdu lightly shouted, manipulating the Reincarnation rules, and began to establish the Underworld.
One after another, buildings such as the Ghost Gate Pass, Yellow Springs Road, Wangxiang Terrace, Mirror of Sin, Ten Yama Halls, Judge's Office, and the most central Fengdu City, all rose up.
As Fengdu walked towards Fengdu City, he said, "Fellow Daoist Houtu, now that the Underworld is newly established and divine positions are vacant, Fellow Daoist can find some members of the Witch Clan to help me and manage the Underworld on my behalf."
"Also, Fellow Daoist Minghe, I have a place here, the Eighteen Hells, which I can also entrust to Fellow Daoist to manage on my behalf."
Houtu and Minghe were moved by these words and thanked Fengdu.
Fengdu smiled, walked into Fengdu City, and took his seat there.
From today onwards, he could be considered to have a long vacation.
With Hongjun and the Saints blocking the door outside, he couldn't get out even if he wanted to, so since that was the case, he simply wouldn't go out.
Anyway, he was just an Incarnation, so he would just endure it and see who could outlast whom.
At the same time, in Taiyin Star, Lin Yang was also studying the One Qi Transforming into Three Pure Ones he had just obtained.
Additionally, there were the three accompanying Origin Qi—Taiqing, Yuqing, and Shangqing Three Pure Ones Origin Qi.
This made Lin Yang wonder if the System had once again plucked these from the Three Pure Ones.
One must know that the current Three Pure Ones were all Saints!
If it could pluck the Origin of a Saint without being discovered, then he could only admit that this System was truly awesome.
At this moment, the System's voice softly sounded, "Host, can't you be less dramatic?"
"You don't think I'm a thief System, do you?"
Lin Yang subconsciously nodded, then quickly shook his head, smiling, "How could that be?"
"System Lord, you are wise and mighty, how could you be a thief?"
"Hmm, that's right!"
The System agreed, "These Three Pure Ones Origin Qi were not stolen by me; I collected them before the Three Pure Ones had even developed consciousness, so they are not considered to have an owner."
Lin Yang nodded blankly, well, this System was quite ruthless.
Collecting their Origin before the Three Pure Ones had even developed consciousness, it truly wasn't afraid of causing the Three Pure Ones to die prematurely.
Lin Yang began to Cultivate One Qi Transforming into Three Pure Ones, swallowing the three Origin Qi into his body in one gulp.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"
Immediately, rumbling sounds emanated from Lin Yang's body, and various anomalies appeared around him.
After a long time, Lin Yang's body suddenly shook, and he opened his eyes, as three streams of clear Qi floated out from the top of his head.
The three streams of clear Qi each transformed into human figures, resembling Taiqing Laozi, Yuqing Primordial, and Shangqing Tongtian respectively.
"This Divine Ability is good; One Qi Transforming into Three Pure Ones, and all three Pure Ones have the same strength as me!"
Lin Yang felt it and said with a smile.
With a thought, the Three Pure Ones reverted to three streams of clear Qi, which entered him from the top of his head and returned to his body.
However, Lin Yang did not immediately transform back into his main body and lie down; instead, he took out the god-slaying spear and the twelfth grade black lotus of destruction.
He intended to use these two treasures to comprehend the Law of Destruction.
The last time he fought with Zhunti, the power of the god-slaying spear was limited by his insufficient mastery of the Law of Destruction.
And thus, it could not unleash its full power.
Otherwise, this single long spear alone would allow him to contend with the Saints without defeat.
"Perhaps, I should also refine my own Dao-proving treasure! Just like Zhunti's Seven Treasure Tree, the Three Pure Ones' Flat Stick, three treasures jade scepter, and qingping sword."
Lin Yang thought to himself.
During this period, his Enlightenment Tea Tree Incarnation was doing well in the Chan Sect.
He was highly valued by Primordial, not only taken as a Personal Disciple but even more favored than the other Twelve Golden Immortals.
Primordial's Refining Dao also began to be gradually passed on to his Incarnation.
And Lin Yang, in turn, obtained this knowledge from his Incarnation, allowing him to accumulate a certain amount of knowledge in Artifact Refining.
Time flowed like water, and in a blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years passed.
During these years, Lin Yang had slowly comprehended some of the profound mysteries of the Law of Destruction.
He had stepped into the threshold of the Great Dao of Destruction.
On this day, while Lin Yang was still in comprehension, the System's prompt suddenly sounded.
"Ding, Divine Grade Choice System mission released: Zhunti intends to incite the tenth Golden Crow Crown Prince to descend to the Lower Realm, causing ten suns to hang in the sky, a great disaster for heaven and earth. Please, Host, go and stop him."
"Choice One: Accept the mission, and you can obtain Emperor Jun's gratitude, as well as a drop of Chaos Golden Crow Essence Blood."
"Choice Two: Reject the mission, and you can obtain a drop of pangu essence blood."
Lin Yang stretched, opened his eyes, and looked outside Taiyin Star, and sure enough, he saw that at this moment, a rolling Evil Qi permeated between heaven and earth.
Clearly, the great tribulation was approaching.
And Zhunti inciting the tenth Golden Crow Crown Prince to descend to the Lower Realm, causing ten suns to hang in the sky and a great disaster for heaven and earth, also confirmed this point.
"Hoo!"
Lin Yang exhaled and made his choice, "System, I choose Two!"
Reject the mission.
Stopping Zhunti was out of the question; with his current strength, he was still a little short of being a Saint.
He was not strong enough to fight Zhunti.
Unless the System could give him the cultivation of a Celestial Venerable Da Luo again.
But this time, the System clearly had no intention of doing so.
So, he would just let it be.
Moreover, comparatively, what Chaos Golden Crow Essence Blood could compare to pangu essence blood?
For tens of thousands of years, Lin Yang hadn't received any missions; it was hard to come by a mission, so he couldn't miss out on this pangu essence blood.
Otherwise, his Twelve Ancestral Witches Incarnation, who knows when he would be able to gather them all!
Lin Yang calculated that he now had five Ancestral Witch Incarnations: Space Ancestral Witch Pan Xuan, Time Ancestral Witch Pan Zhou, Ancestor of Earth Witch Pan Huang, as well as Gold Ancestral Witch Pan Jin, and Wood Ancestral Witch Pan Mu.
Adding this drop of pangu essence blood, Lin Yang intended to use it to conceive the Water Ancestral Witch.
Then he would have a total of six Ancestral Witch Incarnations. Half of the Twelve Ancestral Witches had already been gathered, and half were still missing.
