CHAPTER 646: CHAPTER 405: EVERYONE’S REACTIONS (PART 2)

After all, besides himself, only the Demon Emperor had such a profound understanding of the Primordial Heaven and Earth.

As for the other Saints, they still lacked comprehensive knowledge about the Primordial Heaven and Earth.

Of course, they recognized the existence of the Saint’s position, but this did not mean they had the ability to scheme for it.

Hongjun Daozu quickly cast aside this sense of disappointment, for he now had more important matters to attend to.

His plain eyes gazed into the depths of the Primordial Heavenly Dao, where rules constantly emerged, continually perfecting the Primordial Heavenly Dao.

With the birth of new Saints, the Primordial Heavenly Dao was undergoing a transformation, becoming more intricate and magnificent.

In general, as the Primordial Heavenly Dao became more sealed, it would be increasingly difficult for Hongjun Daozu, being one with the Primordial Heavenly Dao, to extricate himself.

But that is the norm; after receiving Pangu God’s gift, it no longer followed the norm.

Following the secret technique granted by Pangu God, as the Primordial Heavenly Dao became more complete, his body which was in harmony with it was gradually gaining freedom.

Or one could say that under Pangu God’s secret technique, while the Primordial Heavenly Dao was being perfected, it was also rejecting Hongjun Daozu.

With the Primordial Heavenly Dao becoming increasingly complete, his chances of gaining freedom grew correspondingly.

However, this was not without cost.

With a thought, the Creation Jade Disc appeared in his hand, but the originally fragmented Creation Jade Disc had become even more shattered.

Cracks on the surface were continuously expanding, matching the frequency at which the Primordial Heavenly Dao was being perfected.

More accurately, they matched the frequency of Hongjun Daozu liberating himself.

The Creation Jade Disc was the price, using it to compensate for the freedom Hongjun Daozu gradually acquired.

The shattered Creation Jade Disc was an Innate Treasure, but if relying on Pangu’s secret technique and the Creation Jade Disc could regain freedom, Hongjun Daozu chose freedom without hesitation.

Donghuang Taiyi, it turned out to be him!

In the Primordial Heaven and Earth, countless beings could not help but think this.

At this moment, after bowing in salute, everyone on Penglai Immortal Island couldn’t help but look at Di Jun, their eyes full of astonishment and resentment.

This change in the Heavenly Realm turned out to be Donghuang Taiyi becoming a Saint!

It was indeed a significant change, no wonder the usually composed Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan’s expression changed so many times.

The Three Pure Ones, Western Two Saints, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, Ping Xin Empress, and Nuwa Saint simultaneously realized something.

That is, Di Jun did not rely on the Saint’s position in the Heavenly Realm to reach the level of a Saint.

This time, they did not sense any changes in the laws of the Heavenly Realm, unlike when Emperor Fengdu became a Saint and the laws of the Netherworld drastically changed.

Therefore, they deduced that another Saint’s position would not be born in the Heavenly Realm.

Now that Donghuang Taiyi had achieved Heavenly Saint, then Di Jun could not possibly be a Heavenly Saint.

This overturned their previous understanding; they believed Di Jun’s foundation was the Saint’s position in the Heavenly Realm.

But in such a situation, it was clear that Di Jun was not, so what was the true foundation of his sainthood?

For a while, everyone was full of doubts, feeling that the already mysterious Emperor Di Jun had become even more enigmatic.

Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had some guesses but was uncertain.

After all, his own spirit realm achieved the level of a Saint with the help of the Demon Realm.

How could Di Jun achieve the Dao through a Spiritual Illusion Realm?

Moreover, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had personally sensed the close connection between Di Jun and the Heavenly Realm with karma intertwined, how could it not be relying on the Heavenly Realm?

Nuwa had her own guesses too, but it was not about Di Jun’s foundation, rather about when Di Jun became a Saint.

She was the first being to become a Saint in the Primordial Heaven, apart from Hongjun Daozu, and had the protection of Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan.

But Nuwa felt that Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan should have become a Saint before she achieved the Dao.

After all, after she became a Saint, Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan did not show any change in expression under Saintly pressure, and she even felt a strong sense of threat from him.

At that time, Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan might have already become a Saint.

The Western Two Saints and the Three Pure Ones, including Ping Xin Empress, were unaware until later and didn’t have many speculations.

However, in hindsight, they indeed overlooked something.

Every Saint becoming a Saint was marked by a grand spectacle visible to all beings in the Primordial Heaven.

But when Di Jun became a Saint, why was there no news at all until repeated probing revealed he had become a Saint?

This matter, they could not understand nor figure out.

Furthermore, there was a more crucial matter they were very concerned about.

The Demon Clan already possessed immense strength, now with an additional Saint, the situation might see drastic change.

On this point, the minds of the Saints varied greatly.

Nuwa Saint naturally felt pleased, as the Demon Clan’s strength increased, she could reap the benefits as well.

The Three Pure Ones and Western Two Saints were worried, finding the prospect of the Six Saints controlling Heaven to be increasingly distant.

Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, Ping Xin Empress, and Emperor Fengdu had little thought on the matter, as they had few dealings with the Heavenly Realm and the Demon Clan.

Aside from the Saints, the spirits of the Quasi-Saints also fluctuated.

The Quasi-Saints of the Demon Clan were naturally very pleased but on closer inspection, there were different thoughts.

Xi He and Chang Xi were purely delighted, both for the Demon Clan and the Heavenly Court.

Their husband was the Demon Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor, with Donghuang Taiyi’s increased strength signifying an increase in strength for the Demon Clan and Heavenly Court, which made them happy naturally.

While Fu Xi was pleased as well, there was a trace of loneliness deep in his eyes.

Among the Four Emperors of the Demon Clan, the Demon Emperor, Donghuang, Wa Emperor, and Emperor Fuxi, aside from him, Fu Xi, the other three had all become Saints.

Now perhaps the Four Emperors could be more aptly called the Three Saints.

Bai Ze felt no different thoughts, also feeling joy for the Demon Clan.

As for Demon Master Kun Peng, although he was pleased, a thought surfaced in his mind.

In the past, when the Demon Emperor did not strive for the Hongmeng Purple Qi in Hong Yun’s hands, was it because he was confident in achieving Saint status himself and also helped Donghuang Taiyi to become a Saint?

If so, could the Demon Emperor also help others to achieve Saint status?

With this thought, Demon Master Kun Peng’s eyes brightened, silently planning his future conduct.

Seated in the center of the grand hall, Hao Tian also wore a smile, as if congratulating Donghuang Taiyi.

Yet, at this moment, he was deeply resentful towards Donghuang Taiyi, the Heavenly Court, and Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan.

Because of Donghuang Taiyi, his expression changed repeatedly, and even panic arose in his heart.

And because of Donghuang Taiyi, the authority of the Immortal Court could not connect with the Heavenly Realm, and he did not believe that Donghuang Taiyi appearing at the end of the Immortal Court authority was just an accident.

He had sought help from Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan, but he told him to wait, saying there was a major change taking place in the Heavenly Realm.

All these situations left Hao Tian utterly disgraced today.

But is Donghuang Taiyi becoming a Saint that significant change?

Truth be told, he especially resented Donghuang Taiyi’s sainthood.

Donghuang Taiyi’s sainthood and the reestablishment of the Immortal Court occurred at the same time.

By observing the heavenly auspicious signs and glory, the Heavenly Court’s reconstruction could not compare with Donghuang Taiyi’s sainthood.

In terms of the importance of the events, it was the same.

Under such circumstances, the reestablishment of the Immortal Court was completely overshadowed, appearing as nothing more than a backdrop for Donghuang Taiyi.

From the Purple Cloud Palace to the Primordial, he waited a millennium to establish the authority of the Heavenly Court.

But with Donghuang Tai becoming a Saint, how could he establish authority?

Moreover, compared to the founding of the Immortal Court, everyone was more concerned with Donghuang Taiyi becoming a Saint.

All the preparation accumulated up to Donghuang Taiyi’s sainthood became utterly futile, how could Hao Tian not harbor resentment?
