“…”

Xu Yang fell silent for a while, then lifted his head to look towards the Golden Mother Primordial Lord: “This is…?”

“The relic of the Supreme Daoist!”

Golden Mother Primordial Lord murmured with a trace of sorrow and reminiscence in her eyes, gazing at the Taiqing Divine Talisman in her hand: “When the Heavenly Emperor was defeated, Boxun’s forces were fierce, and we had no choice but to evade their sharp edge momentarily; yet we were still relentlessly pursued and killed by Mara leading his host. Ultimately it was the Supreme Daoist who blocked the demons with his body, allowing the Xuanhuang Saints to narrowly escape alive.”

“Anticipating such an outcome, we all made preparations before the battle, and reserved a contingency plan. This Taiqing Divine Talisman is one of the relics left by the Supreme Daoist. Besides this, there are also the Primordial Jade Seal of the Yuqing Taoist, and the Buddha relics left by the two Buddhas Randeng Tathagata.”

“These four relics are the fruits of the Celestial Immortal Dao. Combined with the Heavenly Gods and Earthly Spirits Technique of our Xuanhuang, they can grant temporary power of the four saints. However, the status they confer is profoundly weighty, and after use, it will consume a substantial amount of the essence of Immortal Fruits as well as Qi Fortune Merit. If overly exhausted, even an Earth Immortal may fall back to the mortal dust. Common people simply cannot bear it.”

Golden Mother Primordial Lord looked at Xu Yang: “All these years, facing off against the Demon Abyss, the three Great Heavenly Demon Kings have repeatedly repelled with Boxun’s power, forcing us to continuously use this item to meet our enemy. Henceforth, this Taiqing Divine Talisman only retains its last powers, a great responsibility, and we must entrust it to someone reliable, in hopes of using it to decide the victory!”

“…”

Upon hearing this, Xu Yang kept silent for a moment before saying: “Does the Primordial Lord wish for me to use this item, to aid the saints in assaulting the three heavens of the Demon Abyss?”

“Yes!”

Golden Mother Primordial Lord nodded: “The Desire Realm has existed for a long time, its potentiality vast and profound. Moluo Boxun’s power is extremely terrifying. Now, the demons are entrenched in the four realms, there must be a reason behind it. If we allow them to thrive unopposed, it will result in a precarious situation, and Xuanhuang will face imminent peril…”

After speaking, she looked again at Xu Yang, her eyes held deep meaning: “Using this item, the consumption is immense, it may even dissipate the fruits of an Earth Immortal, it’s an act of ‘success or martyrdom.’ We will not coerce you, Taoist, nor can we provide other guarantees. But should our Xuanhuang prevail and the Heavenly Emperor return, I promise with my life, you will have a place among the saints!”

Her words were straightforward and directly to the point, seducing him with the celestial holy position.

Although they were all in the same boat, if the Heavenly Emperor were to be defeated again and Xuanhuang overturned, everyone would be doomed to the Desire Realm, never to recover. Yet even so, it’s not guaranteed that everyone is willing to sacrifice their personal interests for the greater good. This dilemma of self versus the greater self has always been difficult to reconcile in human hearts.

Thus, even knowing Xu Yang’s nature, Golden Mother Primordial Lord still tempted him with that celestial holy position.

Even if someone is a paragon of virtue, that doesn’t mean you can take advantage of them, expecting them to play the “role of charitable benefactor.”

As a Heavenly Immortal, Xuanhuang Sacred, Golden Mother Primordial Lord thoroughly understood the various facets of humanity.

However, Xu Yang did not rush to state his position, but instead changed the subject and asked: “With only myself, can we break the enemy?”

“Of course not just you alone!”

Without realizing, the form of address changed; Golden Mother Primordial Lord said gravely: “Aside from this Supreme Daoist’s Taiqing Divine Talisman, we also hold the Primordial Jade Seal of the Primordial Daoist, and the Buddha relics from the two Buddhas Randeng Tathagata. We will entrust them to four Earth Immortals, who will combine forces with the Xuanhuang Nine Saints, to fight a deadly battle with the Demon Abyss!”

Xu Yang nodded, then asked: “Who are the other three saints?”

“Not yet decided!”

Golden Mother Primordial Lord shook her head: “This assault on the four realms of the Demon Abyss is a selection process. We will choose four Earth Immortals with the strongest powers and deepest accumulation to undertake this important task. You are also among them, but I believe that with your abilities, securing the top position will be easily within your grasp.”

“The Primordial Lord flatters me!”

Xu Yang smiled calmly: “Since that is the case, we will follow the Primordial Lord’s word and let the outcomes of the battles across the four realms decide the final selection.”

“Good!”

Golden Mother Primordial Lord nodded in approval; Xu Yang also shifted his gaze, looking towards the Deity of the Sun: “I wish to lead the charge in one realm. What do you think, Star Lord?”

“With your ability, you should naturally lead!”

Upon hearing this, the Deity of the Sun was not surprised, merely asking: “Which realm do you wish to attack?”

Xu Yang smiled: “Let’s go for the Asura Realm then!”

“Asura Realm?”

The Deity of the Sun pondered for a moment before nodding and smiling: “Then, the Asura Realm it is!”
