Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation-Chapter 173 - 167: Repaying Karma
Chapter 173: Chapter 167: Repaying Karma
Daoist Jie Yin’s achievement of Quasi-Saint status was fleeting, yet it was sensed by the Great Divine Ability Users of the Primordial world.
Di Jun opened his eyes, glanced at Donghuang Taiyi, and found his emotions stable, lacking the restlessness of Taiching Laozi when he broke through to Quasi-Saint.
Then he closed his eyes and no longer concerned himself with the matter.
In the Primordial world, all beings who could sense this were very surprised.
They too had once yearned to become the second Quasi-Saint, guessing who it might be.
Among The Three Pure Ones, Yuqing Yuanshi or Shang Qing Tong Tian?
Among the upper echelons of the Demon Clan, the renowned Taiyi, Fu Xi, Nuwa?
Or the proud leader of the Immortal Court, East King, who claimed to carry on the Saint’s traditions?
No one had thought that the second Quasi-Saint would turn out to be Daoist Jie Yin.
In the eyes of the beings from the Eastern Primordial, the Western realm had always been overlooked, so much so that Daoist Zhun Ti and Daoist Jie Yin did not leave much of an impression.
The only profound impression was the shameless competition for a seat in the Purple Cloud Palace, which was indeed disgraceful.
Unexpectedly, this shameless Daoist Jie Yin would become the second Quasi-Saint.
Immortal Court Penglai Immortal Island.
East King felt Daoist Jie Yin’s aura and was filled with anxiousness.
As East King, born during the struggle between the Immortal Dao and Demon Path, inheriting the Saint’s tradition, could it be that I’m still not comparable to the Western Daoist Jie Yin?
Kunlun Mountain.
Daoist Jie Yin becoming a Quasi-Saint was a major blow to the proud Yu Qing.
Tong Tian, too, was affected, though not as severely as Yuanshi.
Yuqing Yuanshi’s face darkened as he spoke in a low voice, "Starting today, I will enter seclusion; I will not emerge until I break through to Quasi-Saint."
Having said that, Yuanshi returned to his cave abode, and the protective Arrays were activated.
Seeing his elder brother’s determination, Tong Tian said, "If not for breaking through to Quasi-Saint, I too will not leave seclusion."
The emergence of two successive Quasi-Saints had fired up the other beings within Primordial.
A thousand years later, Donghuang Taiyi’s aura appeared for a moment.
The third Quasi-Saint emerged.
Following that, it was still the demons’ moment; five hundred years later, and Nuwa and Fu Xi broke through to Quasi-Saint together.
Another five hundred years passed, and Yuqing Yuanshi as well as Shang Qing Tong Tian broke through to Quasi-Saint.
After a millennium, Xi He, Chang Xi, and East King finally advanced to the Quasi-Saint realm.
...
Daoist Jie Yin stood outside the Sun Star, perceiving these strict defenses, and reminisced about the past three thousand years.
Since he and Zhun Ti embarked on a new path, their like-minded peers were very rare.
Thus, after discussing, they also established a force, the Western Sect.
However, aside from the two brothers, there were no other noteworthy beings, so the force went unnoticed.
The first thing Daoist Jie Yin did upon becoming a Quasi-Saint was to repay the debts he once owed.
Now as a Quasi-Saint, he gained the ability to converse with Emperor Jun.
Three thousand years of preparation were for this very day.
Zhun Ti initially wanted to follow along, but he was refused.
After all, this visit was to repay debts, not for a battle.
The power of the Demon Clan was unprecedentedly strong now, with one Primordial Golden Immortal and five Quasi-Saints, leaving no being or power able to contend with them.
Naturally, Daoist Jie Yin would not be foolish enough to provoke the Demon Clan.
Daoist Jie Yin waited outside the Sun Star for a long time before he saw Bai Ze emerge from within.
"Daoist Jie Yin, the Demon Emperor has agreed to see you. Please follow me."
Daoist Jie Yin watched Bai Ze’s figure, sensing his aura and couldn’t help but sigh internally: It may not be long before the Demon Clan adds another Quasi-Saint.
No, perhaps there are two, with Demon Master Kunpeng yet to reveal himself.
Daoist Jie Yin assessed the strength of the Demon Clan, filled with envy in his heart.
The power of the Demon Clan is too formidable.
It is said that the Eastern Primordial is a land of outstanding people and brilliant spirits, but I see that it pales in comparison to the Demon Clan.
Moments later, Bai Ze brought Daoist Jie Yin before Emperor Jun, then left.
"Daoist Jie Yin, please take a seat."
Emperor Jun, sitting beside a stone table, said to Daoist Jie Yin.
"Thank you, Demon Emperor."
Daoist Jie Yin spoke.
At the same time, Daoist Jie Yin was also cautiously sensing Emperor Jun’s aura.
Unfathomable! freewēbnoveℓ.com
Even though he has now reached the realm of a Quasi-Saint, Emperor Jun’s cultivation still seemed unfathomable to him.
This made him doubt the previous conversation between Laozi and the Saint, that becoming a Primordial Golden Immortal was difficult to achieve.
Emperor Jun, too, was perceiving Daoist Jie Yin’s condition, and indeed, it surprised him.
"Congratulations, Daoist friend, for escaping the cage and forging your own path," said Emperor Jun with a smile.
Emperor Jun could sense that within this path was a mixture of familiar essences—the Demon Path, the Immortal Dao.
Although he didn’t know what Daoist Jie Yin had gone through, he had nevertheless embarked on a new path.
"Your Highness is too cautious with his words, we still cannot do without the Saints’ teachings," replied Daoist Jie Yin.
Emperor Jun nodded in response and did not say more.
Indeed, the path that Jie Yin now walked on can be considered an innovation on the Immortal Dao; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to continue comprehending the present Immortal Dao and cultivate further.
It must be noted that Emperor Jun’s cultivation now can only advance through breaking through the Immortal Dao to grasp the true Heavenly Dao.
Emperor Jun believed that it was because Daoist Jie Yin understood this, which is why he spoke such words.
After a while, Emperor Jun asked again, "Daoist Jie Yin, having just broken through to a Quasi-Saint and not focusing on cultivating or contemplating the Heavenly Dao, what brings you to my Sun Star?"
Daoist Jie Yin, with a calm expression, replied directly, "This visit is to express thanks for the Demon Emperor’s help in our Transformation. It is to repay the debt from that time."
Emperor Jun looked into the eyes of Daoist Jie Yin and spoke, "Repay the debt?"
"How does Daoist Jie Yin intend to repay this debt?"
"Could it be that you wish to serve my Demon Clan?"
Daoist Jie Yin said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty jests. With the current strength of the Demon Clan, there is no need for my service."
Without further concealment, Daoist Jie Yin took out a book from his sleeve and placed it on the stone table.
"My brother and I wish to use this to repay the debt of the Demon Emperor’s help with our Transformation. I wonder if that would be acceptable?"
Daoist Jie Yin, when saying the words ’help with our Transformation,’ deliberately emphasized his intonation.
At first, when they had just transformed, they were ignorant and thought it was merely the assistance of a senior.
Only later did they realize that this was likely a scheme.
Because even without Emperor Jun’s help, the two brothers could achieve Transformation after a few more centuries.
After all, Innate Spiritual Energy is not as scarce as Innate Origin.
So this debt, in truth, is not significant. The difficulty lies in offering something that would move Emperor Jun to settle it.
It was precisely because he understood this was a calculated move that Daoist Jie Yin, after breaking through to a Quasi-Saint, was so eager to repay this debt.
He felt that he was able to repay this debt not because he had achieved the realm of a Quasi-Saint.
But because he possessed the book before him.
