Red Cloud was currently in dire need of innate spiritual treasures! After all, he only possessed one of the Five Directional Flags, the Azure Lotus Treasure Banner of the East! For severing his three corpses, he could only sever one, reaching merely the early stage of Quasi-Saint. The Saints had said that three innate spiritual treasures were needed to sever three corpses. Now, with the red gourd, Red Cloud’s pressing need had been resolved!
Soon, the second orange gourd detached from the vine and flew directly into Nuwa’s hands!
Nuwa was overjoyed. She hadn't expected to be the second recipient! This was an ultimate-grade innate spiritual treasure, and neither she nor her brother had one yet! Indeed, although Nuwa and Fuxi had lived in Buzhou Mountain, they possessed no spiritual treasures. Fuxi only had an upper-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Fuxi Qin, while Nuwa had nothing at all!
The third yellow gourd followed closely behind, detaching and flying to Donghuang Taiyi and Dijun. This was the immortal flying knife gourd, famous in later ages!
"Brother, take it! I have the supreme treasure Chaos Bell, so I don't need these!" Donghuang Taiyi declared domineeringly!
Dijun didn't stand on ceremony with his brother and directly accepted the yellow gourd! After all, what was there to differentiate between the two brothers!
The fourth green gourd also flew out immediately, landing in Yuanshi’s hand.
Yuanshi smiled slightly. An ultimate-grade innate spiritual treasure! And it was a gourd, possessing great power!
The fifth cyan gourd and the seventh violet gourd flew out simultaneously, landing respectively in Tongtian’s and Taiqing Laozi’s hands. The two exchanged smiles. Ultimate-grade innate spiritual treasures, indeed good items! The Three Pure Ones had many spiritual treasures now, so they weren't particularly concerned, but ultimate-grade innate spiritual treasures were still worth acquiring!
Only the sixth gourd was deficient in its innate qualities, merely upper-grade and unable to mature. However, at this moment, the blue gourd disappeared. Although everyone was curious, they didn't pay it much mind, as an immature gourd was unusable anyway.
Afterwards, Nuwa waved her hand, and the gourd vine, along with a clump of soil, flew into Nuwa’s hand – it was the gourd vine and the Nine Heavens Xi Soil!
"Farewell!" Seeing that all the treasures had been distributed, Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi greeted Nuwa and Fuxi and departed!
Nuwa and Fuxi also exchanged greetings and left!
Zhen Yuanzi looked at the empty space with a bit of embarrassment. Everyone else had received their fortuitous encounters, so why had he, the Daoist Immortal of Enlightenment, received nothing? This was rather un-mystical!
"Haha, Zhen Yuanzi, let's go too. Esteemed Daoist Sanqing, would you be willing to visit Daoist Zhen Yuanzi's Wuzhuang Temple for Ginseng Fruit?" Hong Yun invited with a smile!
Taiqing Laozi shook his head and politely declined. It was a time for everyone to seize every moment for cultivation. Although the three brothers of Taiqing had obtained the method for severing their corpses early, they still needed to cultivate diligently!
Upon returning to Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi and Tongtian immediately began refining their magic treasures.
Taiqing Laozi did not try to detain them. Instead, he took out his violet gourd, examined it, and casually began refining it. After all, this ultimate-grade gourd would be most suitable for storing elixirs in the future!
The Great Desolation never counted years; time flowed by!
On the Great Desolation, more and more Great Luo Golden Immortals began severing their corpses. For a time, it could be said that Quasi-Saints were everywhere, and Great Luo Golden Immortals were as common as dogs. The Great Desolation had never seen so many Quasi-Saint level powerful beings!
In the Sea of Blood, after returning, Minghe directly used the Innate Supreme Treasure, the God-Slaying Spear, to sever his evil corpse, his strength immediately reaching the early stage of Quasi-Saint. Furthermore, because he severed his corpse with an Innate Supreme Treasure, Minghe's strength was exceptionally powerful. The combined might of the two was far more than simply one plus one!
Delighted by the increase in his strength, Minghe was eager to spar with the Three Pure Ones. However, remembering that they had already become Quasi-Saints long ago, he could only curse Heaven’s injustice, though there was nothing he could do.
On the Great Desolation land, many conflicts also arose. After all, severing one's corpse required innate spiritual treasures, and there were not that many innate spiritual treasures. Numerous powerful beings engaged in fierce battles over them. For a time, the malevolent aura on the Great Desolation increased significantly. The battles between Great Luo Golden Immortals and even Quasi-Saints were naturally more perilous and could be seen everywhere on the Great Desolation land!
Many Quasi-Saint powerful beings, even after severing their corpses, still had to prepare for their next severing. Where would they obtain innate spiritual treasures? Naturally, through plunder. Thus, conflicts on the Great Desolation grew more frequent and intense!
After returning, the Demon Clan's Dijun summoned Taiyi and invited Fuxi and Nuwa, as they had all become Quasi-Saint level powerful beings.
Now, Dijun felt that his plan could be realized! He then gathered these individuals to discuss it, and Fuxi also agreed that the time was ripe.
Then, Dijun took a bold step forward, raising his voice to the heavens and exclaiming, "Heavenly Dao above, I, Dijun, today establish a race, named the Demon Clan. All spiritual beings of grass and wood! Those with scales and armor, with fur and horns, born from moisture or hatching from eggs, shall all be of the Demon Clan."
The surrounding demon beasts roared in unison, "Demon, Demon, Demon!"
At this moment, Dijun was very pleased and said, "From this day forward, I shall be the Demon Emperor, Donghuang Taiyi shall be the Eastern Emperor, Fuxi shall be the Xi Emperor, and Nuwa shall be the Wa Empress! We shall share the destiny of my Demon Clan!"
Immediately, the Heavenly Dao responded and bestowed merit. The merit was divided into four parts, entering the bodies of Dijun and the others respectively. Their cultivation realms, which had just been stabilized after severing their corpses, became more solid due to this merit!
Feeling the tangible benefits, Dijun became even happier. Fuxi and Nuwa were also satisfied, never expecting to receive merit. It was truly wonderful!
With the establishment of the Demon Clan, the Wu Clan in Pangu Hall glanced at the sky and then paid it no mind. They needed to break through to Quasi-Saint as quickly as possible. Because of Hongjun's sermons, all the powerful beings on the Great Desolation had severed their corpses and achieved sainthood, while the Wu Clan could only cultivate their physical bodies and laws, making breakthroughs difficult!
Now that the Demon Clan was established, Dijiang knew that his Wu Clan's "food" was about to rebel. But if they lacked absolute strength, their roles might be reversed. This was something Dijiang absolutely refused to allow!
"My dear brothers and sisters, our time is running short. Let us utilize our resources!" Dijiang said solemnly!
The other Ancestral Witches looked at each other and nodded. In the Pangu Hall, a blood pool suddenly rose, emitting a large amount of essence blood that entered the bodies of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. The Twelve Ancestral Witches began to break through, entering the Quasi-Saint realm!
There was a chasm between Quasi-Saint and Great Luo Golden Immortal. Once crossed, one would enter a period of rapid development. This was precisely the situation for the Ancestral Witches. Having crossed this chasm, their cultivation surged!
"Haha, now we are also Quasi-Saint strength. Let's ascend to heaven and tear apart those little birds!" Zhurong laughed heartily!
However, Dijiang said, "No rush. We can now refine the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array from our inherited memories. Let's get this array set up first, and then we can eliminate the Demon Clan together!"
Zhurong nodded. Indeed, they all had the inheritance for this array, which could summon the true form of Pangu. With this array, they might even contend with Saints in the future. As for the Demon Clan, once they recreated this array, what was the Demon Clan? Were those two little birds even worthy!
