Chapter 525: Hongjun’s Name Change. Powerful Cultivators From Everywhere
At the Heavenly Palace.
The Jade Emperor and Goddess Nuwa discussed with Hongjun on what they knew. “Daozu, that’s what happened.”
They were impressed by Hongjun. They respected him in their hearts, which was why they called him Daozu. It was naturally because of his teachings that benefitted the development of the Eldritch World. He did a lot for the living beings of the Eldritch World.
It was ridiculous to say he did it merely for self-improvement.
Was he not allowed to gain some rewards for good deeds? The world was just. One could do good deeds without getting any rewards. However, if one requested for someone to do so, it would be considered unfair.
In retrospect, it was better to name a price for good deeds.
“Mind your words! What do you mean Daozu? I’m not Daozu!”
Hongjun instantly scolded, “Don’t call me that ever again! I did what I did because I was going along with Pangu’s transformation of the realm. I tried to improve myself, to have a breakthrough as a Realm Cultivator. That’s why I kept trying to improve the Eldritch World. That’s all.
“Compared to the expert, I’m nothing. Don’t call me Daozu ever again. I don’t deserve it!”
How could he call himself Daozu in front of the expert? Moreover... The Eldritch World had changed. There were weird phenomena in the Chaos that could attract powerful beings. They would fight for the benefit of the world. There would be all sorts of powerful cultivators by then.
Imagine if a powerful cultivator arrived at the Eldritch World. They would yell, ‘Who’s the most powerful cultivator here?’
‘It’s Daozu!’
‘Daozu? Alright! Bring him here. I want to fight him alone!’
Yikes—
‘Too scary.’
Hongjun shuddered. He thought it was problematic. “Oh, yeah. I have to change my name, too. From now on, I’m not Hongjun. Just call me Cultivator Junjun.”
‘This name’s subtle, cute, and humble. It sounds so wholesome and non-threatening. Perfect name for me.’
The Jade Emperor and the Empress stared at him with wide eyes. It was as if that was the first time they knew Hongjun. They felt a mix of emotions.
‘What the hell? Only Daozu can make us feel so awkward.’
They always had a question in mind. Why did Hongjun alone survive when Pangu split the realms for the three-thousand Demon Gods? How did he become the ultimate winner in the end?
They...finally understood.
‘Expert. He’s an expert.’
The Empress said, “Hong... Cultivator Junjun. That’s the Palace of the Deluxe Merit Saint. It’s also where the expert’s staying in the Heavenly Palace.”
“I already know. The door’s shut, but I can feel the aura from within. It’s holy and majestic. It’s just a hint, but it nourishes the Heavenly Palace. It benefits you all.”
Cultivator Junjun saluted and bowed at the Palace of the Deluxe Merit Saint. “I must bow to the expert’s place.”
He felt helpless, too. He was envious of the Jade Emperor and the Empress.
Cultivator Junjun had the utmost respect for Li Nianfan when he heard their stories. Especially the part where they got to eat Chaos Spiritual Fruits. He salivated and gulped. ‘Forget the Chaos Spiritual Fruit, at least let me have a sip of Chaos Spiritual Water!
‘Give me one drop!’
He was Daozu for countless years, but he had never tried it. His ex-students, the Jade Emperor and the Empress, had a blast eating it. They improved so much. They were almost Chaos Daluo Golden Immortals.
His face was as sour as a lemon.
‘Why was I in a slumber?
‘I missed out on such a huge opportunity to kiss up to the expert. This is the most painful thing in life!’
Suddenly, Chang’e and the Seven Princesses chatted merrily as they walked toward the Palace of the Deluxe Merit Saint. They were in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. They were very colorful and beautiful in their floaty dresses. They were graceful, gorgeous, and blinding.
The Empress immediately scolded, “Hong, how can you enter the Palace of the Deluxe Merit Saint without permission?”
The Princesses were frightened like deers in headlights. They hurriedly bowed and greeted, “Empress, Emperor.”
The big sister, Hong, said, “Empress, Lord Xiao Bai gave us orders last night. There are some leftover beverages in the palace. He told us to clean it up today.”
‘Leftover beverages?
‘Really?!’
The Jade Emperor and the others were instantly intrigued.
Cultivator Junjun suddenly had spiked eyebrows and a spiked beard. He was flushed from excitement. “Let me do it!”
...
Time passed.
A month had slipped by in the blink of an eye.
Li Nianfan was living a peaceful, happy life with Daji and the others in the four-part architecture.
He was in his honeymoon period, so he was naturally delighted.
However, he could still feel the changes in the realm without going out.
Big flying Demons would fly by from time to time. Daji would shoot them down. They were made into poultry.
Li Nianfan thought it was convenient. It was like food delivery.
Meanwhile, somewhere on the Fallen Immortal Mountain.
An elder with white robes and white hair suddenly groaned. He shuddered. His right arm was instantly covered in a layer of white frost!
He had four students behind him—two guys and two girls. They said at the same time, “Master, are you alright?”
The elder slowly opened his eyes. He looked shocked. He shook his head and said, “The Godly area’s indeed dangerous. I tried to get closer to the area by manipulating a big flying Demon. I was turned to an icicle before I could take a closer look. I even felt it backfiring on me. The message was clear... Horror, fear, and power.
“Something exists on that mountain. We can’t mess with it. Let’s seek for another mountain to set up our sect.”
A Bengal Tiger with golden wings at the side spat fire to unfreeze the elder.
The elder patted the tiger on the head. He said, “Thank God I didn’t send you there. Otherwise, this would’ve ended badly.”
Their cultivation was related to the Demons.
They had a contract bond with the Demons. They were lifelong allies. They called it the Familiar Demon. They were naturally precious to them.
The elder forced a Demon to do his bidding earlier with a Manipulation Spell. It was the best way to reduce risk.
A young lady said, “But Master, you said this mountain’s extraordinary. It looks like a Dragon and it’s an excellent place. We’ve lost so many Demons already. How about we wait for my grandpa’s arrival...?”
“We just got here. It’s best not to make enemies right away. They’re probably warning us to stay away. We should look for another place. Safety first.”
The elder chuckled and said, “How many times do I have to tell you? Try to avoid confrontation as much as you can. Don’t be boastful. A feisty personality won’t get you anywhere. Let’s go.”
In the midst of the Chaos.
Several figures went straight toward the Eldritch World.
“The Chaos created a new world and the aura has risen like a tide in this Area of the Gods. I can’t believe we searched for the Area of the Gods for so long to no avail, but a new Area of the Gods was formed in the Chaos.”
“It’s indeed the Area of the Gods. The Immortal Qi is ten times more intense than any world I’ve been to!”
“I sense it, too. The smell of so many opportunities...”
Boom!
A powerful aura rolled in. The golden light shone like a galaxy as it formed a path. Then, three Magical Beasts with ox heads, jet-black bodies, and golden fur rode in on a luxurious palanquin.
“That’s the Saintly Sovereign of the Saintly Kingdom!” somebody recognized him and exclaimed.
“He’s here? I heard that he single-handedly created the Saintly Kingdom. He overpowered all the sects. He ruled over Humans, Demons, and Immortals!”
“I heard that he can create realms. He’s a Realm Cultivator. However, he’s been looking for opportunities in the Chaos. I can’t believe he’s targeting the Area of the Gods, too.”
Just when everyone was shocked, they sensed another rising aura.
The aura was grey and creepy. They heard the moans and cries of a million ghosts. A huge skull figure was formed.
It seemed to be formed by intense smoke.
Two ghastly green eyes emitted Ghost Fire. It was intimidating to look at. They were frightened and cold.
Everyone looked petrified. They hurriedly backed off.
“That’s the Ghastly Ghost King! Why’s he here? He’s that terrifying existence that once turned an entire world to the Area of the Ghosts!”
“I thought we had the upper hand because the Area of the Gods just appeared. I can’t believe so many people showed up. Did they all come out from their worlds?”
“All the elites and powerful cultivators are swarming in like bees. The Area of the Gods truly lives up to its name!”
