Chapter 164 A Sage Intervenes! East vs. West!
At this moment, on the moon.
Niu Ben, Xi He, and Chang Xi were watching the scene unfold through the Void Mirror Technique.
"snort!"
Upon seeing Di Jun appear, Chang Xi pouted and snorted coldly with a look of disgust:
"That's really domineering!"
"This demon emperor of the demon race is truly no good!"
Chang Xi already harbored resentment towards Di Jun.
He wanted to marry his sister Xihe, but Xihe refused. So he used a sealing technique to seal the Taiyin star and sent many Great Luo Golden Immortals to guard it outside.
Seeing Di Jun make such harsh remarks, Chang Xi naturally disliked him.
Upon hearing what Chang Xi said, Niu Ben couldn't help but chuckle.
But I also know very well in my heart.
The demon race today certainly has the right to be domineering.
And this Di Jun, as the emperor of the demon race, ruled the Heavenly Court and commanded all demons.
Now that the Lich and Demon races are dominant, even saints have to give them some face.
Those powerful beings who want to compete for the Primordial Purple Qi will naturally weigh the risks carefully and consider whether it is worth the trouble.
After all, the slightest mistake could lead to death.
"Ugh!"
After a moment of silence, Chang Xi sighed helplessly and said again:
"It seems that wisp of primordial purple energy is about to fall into the hands of the demon race!"
Upon hearing Chang Xi's words, Xi He suddenly spoke up, "I don't think so."
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Chang Xi was taken aback and asked, puzzled:
"Sister, with so many demons present, even Di Jun has descended. Who would dare to compete with them?"
At the same time, Niu Ben looked meaningfully at Xi He, raised an eyebrow, and said:
"What makes you say that, Fellow Daoist Xihe?"
Xihe smiled faintly, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and replied:
"While quasi-saint level powerhouses might be intimidated by the demon race, the great saints probably wouldn't be so easily deterred, would they?"
At this point, Xihe glanced back at Niu Ben and continued:
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben, don't you agree with what I said?"
Niu Ben smiled slightly but did not answer.
However, he knew in his heart that it wouldn't be so easy for the demon race to obtain that wisp of Primordial Purple Qi.
After all, even the saints haven't stepped down yet.
At this juncture, at that particular location.
Kunpeng was overjoyed when he saw Dijun arrive.
"Ha ha!"
"Styx, didn't you want to steal the Primordial Purple Qi?"
"Rob it?"
The Kunpeng looked towards the River Styx and roared incessantly.
In his view, Donghuang Taiyi and Dijun arrived one after another to help him compete for the Primordial Purple Qi.
Little did they know, the two great emperors of the demon race did not think that way.
How could they possibly relinquish the foundation for sainthood to Kunpeng?
Upon hearing what Kunpeng said, Styx's face turned ashen, his heart filled with boundless rage, but in the end he did not make a move.
He knew very well that if he took action, he would not gain any advantage whatsoever.
A slight misstep could result in severe damage.
Seeing that the Styx River had stopped moving, Di Jun chuckled coldly and strolled out, preparing to take the wisp of Primordial Purple Qi.
But then, another unexpected event occurred!
"boom!"
But then, the void not far away suddenly shattered.
The next moment, an incomparably sharp sword aura tore through the sky, and the azure sword light transformed into a colossal pillar that crashed down in the center of the void.
Before long, the sword light dissipated.
Then a figure appeared.
Who else could it be but Tongtian Shengren, the leader of the Jie Sect?
At this moment, Tongtian exuded boundless holy might and an incomparably vast aura that instantly overwhelmed the entire scene, making everyone present feel suffocated.
"roll!"
Before Di Jun and the others could react to what was happening, Tongtian shouted out.
With just a roar, it seemed to contain the supreme essence of swordsmanship, causing everyone present to feel their blood and qi surge.
"The Sage Who Reaches the Heavens?"
Upon seeing this, Di Jun's face turned extremely ugly.
As the emperor of the demon race, when had he ever been reprimanded like this?
But when faced with a sage, one can only endure it and dare not act rashly in the slightest.
Soon, Di Jun realized that the person in front of him was not the real Tongtian Saint, but an avatar of him.
Even so, he still dared not make any unusual moves.
"hateful!"
Why would a sage's avatar intervene in this matter?
Di Jun roared in his heart, filled with countless resentments.
Styx saw this and felt a chill in his heart.
After Di Jun appeared, he did not make a move, but he also did not leave.
Naturally, they were thinking about whether there was still a chance.
But now that even the avatars of saints have descended, Styx knows that this struggle for the Primordial Purple Qi is no longer something they can get involved in.
"this?"
"Even the avatars of a saint have arrived?"
Upon seeing this, Kunpeng was completely dumbfounded, his head buzzing.
He originally thought that with so many powerful demons, the Primordial Purple Qi was already his.
But now, the appearance of the sage's avatar has chilled his heart.
On the other side, Donghuang Taiyi and Zhen Yuanzi also stopped fighting at this time.
"You demons have gone to such lengths, but you probably never imagined that in the end you'd end up with nothing?"
Zhen Yuanzi said coldly, his words full of sarcasm.
After this incident, he harbored a deep hatred for the demon race.
Zhen Yuanzi originally intended to seize that wisp of Primordial Purple Qi, since it belonged to his second brother after all.
But now, seeing the arrival of Tongtian Shengren's avatar, Zhen Yuanzi also knows that the struggle for this item has nothing to do with them anymore.
Meanwhile, the powerful figures who were secretly observing the events were all shocked.
"what?"
"Even saints have intervened?"
"I thought the demon race was going to easily get their hands on that primordial purple energy."
"After all, it is the foundation of the Great Dao!"
"..."
Just as everyone was in shock, a Buddhist chant suddenly echoed from the void:
"Good, good, good!"
"Such a foundation of the Great Dao is not something you can meddle with!"
"It is fitting that I have a connection with the West."
As soon as he finished speaking, a great light suddenly shone from the western sky, and golden lotuses emerged from the void.
Immediately afterwards, the Sage Zhunti arrived, riding on a golden lotus. Although he was also just an incarnation, his holy power was overwhelming.
Upon seeing the incarnations of the two sages arrive one after the other, the powerful beings of the primordial world who had been intimidated by Di Jun couldn't help but feel secretly delighted.
Previously, Di Jun relied on the power of the demon race and acted arrogantly and domineeringly.
Now that they are suppressed by the sage, they are naturally happy to see this scene.
"It seems the demon race is going to return empty-handed this time!"
"Indeed, there's always someone better."
"Those who deceive others will one day be deceived themselves."
"With the descent of the two great saints, this foundation for sainthood is no longer available to the demon race."
"..."
Many powerful figures sighed with emotion, but deep down they felt a sense of schadenfreude.
Because of Di Jun's tyranny, they naturally did not want to see this Primordial Purple Qi fall into the hands of the demon race.
At this moment, both the Primordial Sage and the Supreme Sage were paying attention.
However, they did not choose to show themselves.
The Three Pure Ones are one family; with the help of a sage who has reached the heavens, they can easily achieve their goals.
The guiding saints of the Western religions naturally also paid attention to this matter.
But he had no intention of making a move.
After all, if he were to take action, Taishang and Yuanshi among the Three Pure Ones would naturally not stand idly by.
