Chapter 197: The Great Desolation Situation, Convincing Yuanshi Tianzun
Qi Yu’s sudden words immediately aroused the interest of everyone present. Yuanshi and Lingbao, the two Heavenly Masters, looked over one after another, obviously interested in the candidate mentioned by the former. Even Fuxi wanted to hear which strong man Qi Yu had chosen.

Only the Lord of Morality remained calm and silent at this moment, as if he had anticipated something.

Sure enough, the next moment, Qi Yu spoke.

“Since there are no wise men to be appointed in the Xuanmen, why don’t we search through the primordial world and select a virtuous and superior person who is friendly to the immortal way, and invite him to Kunlun to ascend the throne as emperor?”

“In my opinion, Fellow Daoist Fuxi is quite good. He was already the Azure Emperor in the ancient times. Not only does he have the mandate of the Heavenly Emperor, but he is also the ruler of the Pure Yang of the Heavenly Court. He has already been certified as the Celestial Lord and can easily subdue all the immortals. Isn’t he a very suitable candidate?”

Having said that, seeing that Yuanshi Tianzun seemed to want to say something, Qi Yu just smiled and waved his hand, interrupting the latter for the time being, and then added.

“Besides, Taiyi is about to attain enlightenment. Although our Majesty has made great contributions to the creation of the universe, who can be sure of the affairs of the universe?”

“If it succeeds, it will be fine. If it fails, the God Clan will inevitably be in chaos, and the Heavenly Court will become a place where princes compete for supremacy. At that time, it will be the best time for my Xuanmen to take over. In this way, with Taoist Fuxi as the Heavenly Emperor of the Immortal Dao, it will also ease the contradiction between the Gods and Xuanmen, and better complete the transition!”

After adding some more, Qi Yu smiled and looked at Yuanshi Tianzun. As expected, Kunlun Tianzun was silent at this moment, with an indescribable entanglement on his face.

On the one hand, he certainly hopes that Xuanmen can enter the Heavenly Palace and become the orthodox sect in the ancient world. Doesn’t this fit in with his philosophy of governing the world? It will also be of great benefit to the Three Pure Ones’ preaching and teaching. Simply put, this may directly lead to the opportunity for his three brothers to achieve enlightenment. It is reasonable and he should not refuse!

But on the other hand, Yuanshi Tianzun is a powerful person who interprets the way of opening up and explaining the way of following the will of heaven. He can be said to be an absolute law-abiding person in the ancient times and the representative and even incarnation of order.

Qi Yu hoped that an outsider would take over Xuanmen, and even wanted to use this as a transition for Xuanmen to take over Heaven. This was obviously a bit presumptuous in the eyes of Yuanshi Tianzun. His views on the future situation in Heaven also made the slightly old-fashioned Xuanmen Tianzun feel a little uneasy.

For a moment, Yuanshi Tianzun was a little conflicted, thinking over and over whether this was feasible. It was Lingbao Tianzun’s words that caught his attention again.

Lingbao Tianzun looked at Qi Yu and asked seriously.

“Fellow Daoist Qi Yu, how can you be sure that the God Clan will be in chaos? You must know that even if Taiyi fails to prove his Dao, there will definitely be someone to take over. I think Di Jun has great hope.”

“By then, Di Jun will be the Emperor of Heaven, and he will be invincible when he controls the Nine Heavens Divine Artifacts. Can he not subdue all the gods? How can you be sure that this is the best opportunity for my Xuan Sect?”

“Emperor Jun is, of course, unable to stabilize the situation.”

Lingbao Tianzun had just finished speaking when Qi Yu unexpectedly spoke with an extremely confident smile. Then he looked at Fuxi.

“Fellow Daoist Fuxi, why don’t you explain it to the three Heavenly Lords?”

Hearing this, Fuxi was slightly stunned, then he smiled bitterly and said to Qi Yu.

“Daoyou, you——”

At this point, how could Fuxi not know what Qi Yu was planning? He saw that although the Three Pure Ones might not be completely unaware of the so-called establishment of a new heaven, it was definitely not as Qi Yu had said before, that they had already gone too far.

In his opinion, at most there was a tacit understanding between the Lord of Daode, the chief of the Three Pure Ones, and Qi Yu, the Emperor of the West!

Lingbao Tianzun, perhaps he also noticed this, and chose to assist at this moment – and the biggest obstacle is naturally Yuanshi Tianzun. Right now, Qi Yu dragged him into the water in order to completely integrate the internal voices and complete the last piece of the puzzle in the matter of establishing a new heaven!

Even though Fuxi has always been known for his wisdom, this time, he was unexpectedly dragged into it without realizing it, and did not realize it until the moment he was about to do so. This Emperor Xishen is really cunning!
But now that things have come to this, he can’t back out, and this matter is indeed in his interest, so Fuxi didn’t bother with these details, he just shook his head and said.

“Well, let me explain it to you!”

As he said this, Fuxi looked at Lingbao Tianzun and spoke seriously.

“Fellow Daoist Lingbao, just now you said that Di Jun could subdue all the gods, but that’s actually wrong.”

“The power of the Heavenly Palace artifact is naturally extraordinary, but it is not omnipotent. Fellow Daoist has overestimated the blessing it can bring, and underestimated Di Jun’s opponents. I am almost certain that once Taiyi fails to prove his Dao, the God Clan will inevitably be in chaos, and the entire prehistoric world will be in turmoil.”

“Appreciate further details.”

Lingbao Tianzun nodded slightly, acting as a perfect supporting actor.

Sure enough, the next moment, he heard Fuxi continue speaking.

“Fellow Daoist Lingbao, you should know that the situation in the prehistoric world is no longer the same. Since the Five Directions Dao Palace has a master, the power of Heaven is divided into five parts. Xuanmen, Fengqi Mountain, the demon clan, the witch clan, and the Western Xumi each hold one part.”

“If Emperor Jun controls the heavens, he will definitely take back the authority of the four external paths. Only then can the authority of the Heavenly Emperor be established and his own path be complete.”

“But can he really take it back?”

As he said this, Fuxi smiled and shook his head.

In my opinion, that may not be the case.”

After a pause, Fuxi continued to explain.

“Fellow Daoist, you should know that Taiyi said that day that the positions of the five divine monarchs would be determined by the ownership of the five Daoist palaces. In fact, he wanted the five most powerful forces in the prehistoric world to fight each other. To put it more bluntly, he wanted the five forces of you and me to each choose a strong person to control the power of the Heavenly Court, so as to form a balance of power.”

“Among the five factions, Xuanmen is the new noble, adhering to the immortal way, led by fellow Taoist Qi Yu and three other fellow Taoists, and has always been following orders but not announcements; our Fengqi Mountain lineage has always been neutral, representing the common interests of many Nine Heavens Ancient Gods, and can also be said to be the representative of the neutral law lineages of the gods.”

“Normally, these two parties would not be a threat to future successors. Although they are difficult to manipulate, normally, the power will not be irreversible, so we can put it aside for now.”

“In addition, there are two other parties. One is Mount Xumi in the west, which has the responsibility of suppressing demons and is far away in the west. The other is the Witch Clan. The twelve witch ancestors are known as the Pangu Clan. They are important officials of the Heavenly Court and great gods of the God Clan.”

“These two parties are different from Xuanmen and Fengqi Mountain. If I am not mistaken, the former is the external aid selected by Taiyi for the successor, while the latter is the target of establishing prestige.”

At this point, Fuxi shook his head, looking extremely disapproving. “Unfortunately, in my opinion, Taiyi is really old and senile, otherwise he wouldn’t have made such an unrealistic arrangement, leaving Emperor Jun with no hope of ascending the throne smoothly.”

“Fellow Daoist, please explain in more detail.”

Qi Yu spoke. Actually, there was no fool among the people present who could not understand the hidden meaning of Fuxi’s words, but Qi Yu wanted to take this opportunity to dispel all the concerns of Yuanshi Tianzun. Of course, he could not let Fuxi say half and hide the other half, so that Yuanshi Tianzun would no longer feel any entanglement or embarrassment.

Hearing this, Fuxi could only sigh inwardly that he was really being sold out and had to help others count money. After glancing at Qi Yu with some dissatisfaction, he continued to speak.

“In short, Taiyi misjudged the situation. He did not expect it to change so quickly, and he did not find out the true strength of these forces.”

“Take the Wu Sect as an example. Fellow Daoist Lingbao thought that if Di Jun became the next Heavenly Emperor, he could use the authority of the Nine Heavens to suppress the Wu Sect’s disobedience. I don’t think so.”

“Fellow Daoist, I’m afraid you don’t know yet, but the Witch Sect has a formation called the Formation of the Gods and Demons of the Capital Heaven. If I know correctly, the Twelve Ancestral Witches may have successfully rehearsed this formation, which is said to be able to reproduce the power of the Emperor Pan.”

“Can the Emperor of Heaven really subdue such a mighty force?”

Fuxi’s few casual words immediately made Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun look surprised.

You should know that the Panhuang mentioned by Fuxi is the great god Pangu who created the world. He is the only strong man who has clearly reached the Hunyuan realm since the creation of the prehistoric world. At least at the time of the creation of the world, Pangu must have had the ability of Hunyuan. This has always been the common understanding of all the gods in the prehistoric world!

What does it mean to reproduce the might of Pan Huang? In simple terms, this formation may be able to display the combat power of the first level of Hun Yuan! Even if it is only one strike, it is the might of Hun Yuan that transcends all concepts!

As the limit of the Zhoutian Star Fighting Array is still unknown and Di Jun has no other trump cards in his hand, this has obviously destroyed the balance between the two sides. At least, Fuxi does not think that Di Jun can gain an advantage in it. Based on this point alone, his throne as the Emperor of Heaven has begun to become unstable, and countless hidden dangers have arisen out of thin air.

This was obviously not the end. Next, Fuxi made sharp comments one by one, pointing out other problems between himself and Di Jun.

About Xuanmen——

“Xuanmen seems to have no conflict with the Heavenly Court. The only enemy of Emperor Jun in the Eastern Pole Ancestral Court, Lord Dong Wang, has now died on his own.”

“But in fact, the intention of Xuanmen to take over Zhongtian has long been known to everyone. The strength of the three Taoist friends and the identity of Taoist friend Qi Yu have always been a great hidden danger in the eyes of the gods in the heavenly court. How could we know that they are a thorn in the eyes and a thorn in the flesh of Emperor Jun?”

“Even in the matter of Dong Wanggong, Di Jun has already intended to use the power of others to weaken Xuanmen. It seems that a dispute between the two is inevitable. If they can really coexist peacefully, you and I would not be here to discuss behind closed doors today.”

About Fengqi Mountain——

“Although Fengqi Mountain and the demon race seem to be close, in fact, there have been conflicts between the two for a long time, and it is really difficult to reconcile.”

“First of all, among the demon race, the Sun Palace is not the only one that is respected. In the beginning, my sister and I also had the title of Demon King. However, after Emperor Jun took charge of the demon race, this matter gradually faded away and was no longer mentioned.”

“The second is the dispute over the orthodoxy. I was once the descendant of the Emperor, but after a dispute with Taiyi, I was one step behind and ultimately failed to inherit the throne.”

“In this case, Di Jun, who has proved himself to be the Emperor of Heaven, will certainly be wary of me. In addition, he may also support Hou Tu while suppressing the Wu Sect, so that she can inherit the throne of the Earth. If this is true, Fengqi Mountain will definitely break with Di Jun.”

About Western Xumi——

“Xumi, seemingly indifferent to worldly affairs, is the most worthy supporter of Emperor Jun. However, the demonic plague is getting worse and worse. Do the two Heavenly Lords Jieyin and Zhunti really have time to take care of other things and take action in this orthodox struggle?”

“I have discussed Taoism with Jieying Tianzun before, and I know that he is not as friendly as he appears to be. He has great ambitions in his heart, not only to prove the Tao, but also to revitalize the West. With his character, he will definitely not stay under others for long. Maybe he intends to establish himself in the West!”

Finally, Fuxi concluded.

“In this case, the Xumi Mountain lineage is most likely to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the tigers. Emperor Jun will be completely isolated and helpless. Moreover, he lives in the Heavenly Court, which is a place full of wars. The Wu Sect is his powerful enemy, and the Demon Sect is always watching. The Xuan Sect of several Taoist friends and my Fengqi Mountain may also take action.”

“In such a situation, how can Di Jun maintain his position as the Heavenly Emperor?”

After Fuxi finished speaking, he looked at Lingbao Tianzun again. The latter nodded thoughtfully, and then looked at Yuanshi Tianzun again.

At this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun had a strange look on his face. He always regarded himself as the righteous god of heaven. Even though there were some minor conflicts between him and Taiyi and some ancient gods, and even though he opened up the immortal way besides the divine way, it was only for the purpose of proving the truth and educating people, and he did not lose his identity.

But listening to the implicit meaning of Fuxi’s words, now, not only are there rebels inside and outside the Heavenly Court, but he may even be regarded by the Heavenly Court itself as the biggest one among them, and one of the leaders of the rebels!

This was very embarrassing, and even someone as conservative as Yuanshi Tianzun was speechless for a moment.

In the end, he could only let out a long sigh.

“Forget it, Fellow Daoist Qi Yu has already made up his mind to fish in troubled waters? Or maybe he has already made arrangements? Then I naturally have nothing to say. The situation of Xuanmen is like this, and it is only a matter of time for people like me in the immortal way to rule the heaven. It doesn’t matter whether it is earlier or later.”

In fact, how could Yuanshi Tianzun not hear the hidden meaning of Qi Yu and Fuxi all along? He even saw the intention of Lingbao Tianzun to act as a supporting role clearly. The only thing he was not sure about was when did his elder brother start to support this matter.

To put it bluntly, great gods like Yuanshi Tianzun may not be known for their wisdom, but in terms of intelligence, character, etc., they must be good at this stage. At this moment, after a sigh, he only put forward his last request, which can be regarded as his bottom line in this matter.

“Fellow Daoist Qi Yu, no matter what, the rebellion must be justified. Xuanmen is not a rebellious party that has risen up. It is just that seeing the decline of the way of gods, it is a small sect that has joined the big sect to maintain the law of our heaven. I hope that fellow Daoist can understand what I mean.”

“This is natural.”

Qi Yu was certainly aware of Yuanshi Tianzun’s character, but after nodding and agreeing to the conditions on the issue of stance, he spoke again.

“So, what about Fellow Daoist Fuxi entering Xuanmen and becoming the Emperor of Heaven?”
