Chapter 964 - 475: Xuanqing's Past Life
Within the mysterious space, the chaotic qi flow roiled thickly like ink.
With a contract containing the true meaning of the Three Thousand Great Dao, quietly branded upon the True Spirit of each Demon God, this collaboration concerning the direction of the future epoch was officially reached.
Between the Demon Gods and the Heavenly Dao Essence, a subtle and fragile relationship of trust was formed.
Soon, they began to refine the forbidden magic treasure named [Human Emperor Banner], which is essentially the [Myriad Souls Banner].
Countless Chaos Treasures and Innate Materials, precious enough to drive Primordial Great Powers mad, were casually gathered and thrown into the furnace ignited by the Chaos Divine Fire.
The entire mysterious space was illuminated, flickering light and dark, and the sounds of the laws colliding were incessant.
The Heavenly Dao Essence, while skillfully manipulating the Dao Fire, casually asked:
"By the way, fellow Daoists."
His gaze swept across each Demon God present, carrying a hint of expectation.
"Like Destruction, Reincarnation, Order... these powerful old friends, could anyone contact them?"
As his voice fell, the previously lively atmosphere of treasure refining instantly cooled down.
The Demon Gods present paused in unison, falling into a suffocating collective silence.
On their faces, complex and unread emotions emerged, with regret, anger, and deep powerlessness.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Dao Essence understood internally.
Yet on his face, there was no sign of disappointment, instead, he chuckled lightly, attempting to break the awkward atmosphere.
"What's the matter? Can't fish them back?"
He waved his hand nonchalantly, as if discussing a trivial matter.
"It's not such a big deal, fellow Daoists need not worry."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Demon Gods faintly changed.
They all turned their gaze towards the Heavenly Dao Essence, with a faint flicker of hope reigniting in their eyes.
The [Contract Demon God] asked gravely:
"Could it be that, fellow Daoist, you have a way to bring them back from their downfall?"
The Heavenly Dao Essence, meeting the hopeful gazes of everyone, slowly, decisively shook his head.
"No."
He answered firmly and without hesitation.
Those Primordial folks, isn't each one of them ruthless, strategizing with no oversight?
With beings they teamed up to block, from ancient times to now, was there ever one that could truly rise again?
It's not like the unfortunate [Greedy Demon God], [Great Dream Demon God], or [Reincarnation Demon God] who, after dying and their Dao Fruit dissipating, even their remaining bodies and Dao Fruits were repurposed, becoming the "benefit machine" for the Mystic Sect, Western Sect, and Netherworld, continually providing nourishment to the enemy.
It's like the powerful Demon Gods renowned for their combat power, such as Devour, Destruction, and Ruin, were forcefully filled into the Gui Ruins, becoming the cornerstone and materials constructing that epoch prison, never to rise again.
Want to fish them back?
That would at least require the ability to dismantle those colossal entities, Mystic Sect, Western Sect, Netherworld, and Gui Ruins, entirely.
If the Heavenly Dao Essence truly had that capability, why would he waste words with these defeated remnants?
Attacking the Heavenly Court above the Thirty-Three Heavens would be more direct, wouldn't it?
"If you can't fish them back, why the confident look just now?"
After hearing his explanation, the Demon Gods were somewhat speechless, feeling their emotions had been stirred for nothing.
The Heavenly Dao Essence, however, smiled indifferently, a unique brilliance shining in his eyes.
"Indeed, I cannot directly pull these fallen Daoist friends back from the abyss of death."
"However…"
He deliberately elongated his tone, successfully drawing everyone's attention back.
"We... can cultivate new Demon Gods!"
He raised a finger, gently swaying it in the air, his tone becoming passionate and compelling.
"As the saying goes, only by standing on the shoulders of giants can one see a farther landscape!"
"Now, although many Daoist friends have already perished, their will is immortal! Their spirit endures!"
"Since our grand goal is to establish a home completely belonging to us Demon Gods, we certainly cannot fight alone, relying solely on us Chaos Demon Gods of the old era!"
"We also need to cultivate the new generation's wave!"
His voice was full of strength, echoing in the heart of every Demon God.
"Given time, these new waves we carefully cultivate will certainly be able to follow the path once walked by Devour, Destruction, Reincarnation, and other Daoist friends, continuing to advance!"
"They will inherit the senior's mantle and accomplish their unfinished mission!"
"By then, the Destruction Demon God will once again master the end, the Reincarnation Demon God will reopen the Netherworld, the Order Demon God will re-establish the legal codes!"
"Everything we lost will be regained doubly by newborn strength!"
At this moment, the [Wisdom Demon God], who had been quietly listening, moved her eyes slightly, which were covered in dazzling starlight.
She looked at the Heavenly Dao Essence and spoke with a cold and rational voice:
"The things fellow Daoist speaks of, actually... we are also trying."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Dao Essence slightly raised his eyebrows, revealing an interested expression.
"Then, may I know how fellow Daoists are preparing?"
The [Wisdom Demon God] slowly began to narrate:
"We have once united, extracted all information regarding Greedy, Reincarnation, Order, Destruction, and other Daoist friends from the memory of each of our Divine Souls."
