Chapter 282: Chapter 224 Di Jun Returns
In these 2,500 years, Di Jun did not contemplate the Laws within the Heavenly Dao Law Golden Wheel, but rather examined the Dao contained within it.
These paths of Dao, great and small, are related to the cultivation realm of the cultivator, even the number of cultivators practicing it.
These 2,500 years provided Di Jun with a direction for effort, rather than simply relying on the laws derived from the Law Golden Wheel to form his own path.
Time flies swiftly, and as soon as the span of 2,500 years was over, the Heavenly Dao Law Golden Wheel disappeared in an instant.
From then on, Di Jun’s reward for guarding the Primordial came to an end.
The Three-legged Golden Crow Primordial Spirit that had originally orbited the Heavenly Dao Law Golden Wheel felt not the slightest attachment and directly returned to its original body.
At the same time, the Law Golden Wheel that was slowly rotating above Di Jun’s head submerged back into his body.
The whole Purple Cloud Palace once again returned to tranquility, and Hong Jun Ancestor appeared atop the meditation cushion without any warning.
“Daoist Di Jun, the time of three thousand years has come, it is time for you to leave.”
Hong Jun Ancestor looked at Di Jun expressionlessly.
Di Jun nodded, bowed respectfully, and said: “Many thanks to Daoist Ancestor, Di Jun takes his leave.”
Seeing no reaction from Hong Jun Ancestor, he did not linger any longer and headed toward the great doors of the Purple Cloud Palace.
At this moment, the grand doors of the Purple Cloud Palace slowly opened, and the Hao Tian Attendant said to Di Jun: “Demon Emperor, please.”
Di Jun nodded to the Hao Tian Attendant and with one step, left the Purple Cloud Palace, entering the Chaos.
Looking back, he only saw the silhouette of the Purple Cloud Palace gradually fading until it vanished completely.
Di Jun only felt a spatial fluctuation and then could no longer sense the presence of the Purple Cloud Palace.
The road ahead is still long.
Di Jun couldn’t help but think to himself.
He did not linger in the Chaos, returning to the Primordial.
As soon as he stepped into the Primordial, the heavy entanglements of fate and karma became more apparent.
But this time, Di Jun’s mood was very calm.
He did not immediately return to the Immortal Court Lingxiao Palace, but went to the Sun Star instead.
Donghuang Taiyi immediately called out upon seeing Di Jun.
At the same time, a sense of relief surged in his heart.
With his elder brother’s strength, possessing a Supreme Treasure like the River Map and Luo Book, yet still needing to borrow the Donghuang Bell from Taiyi, indicated the magnitude of the issue his elder brother faced.
And ever since his elder brother borrowed the Donghuang Bell, he had disappeared for thousands of years, leaving Donghuang Taiyi’s heart hanging.
Now that Di Jun had returned, Donghuang Taiyi’s heart also settled quite a bit.
In response to Donghuang Taiyi’s warmth, a smile also appeared on Di Jun’s face.
With a thought, the Donghuang Bell appeared in front of Donghuang Taiyi.
“Taiyi, your Donghuang Bell, I return it to you.”
Di Jun said directly.
Donghuang Taiyi, without any formalities, took back the Donghuang Bell, then looked at Di Jun and inquired.
“Big brother, have the matters been settled?”
Di Jun nodded and said: “It has been settled, very smoothly.”
“May I know if it is convenient for you to tell me?”
Donghuang Taiyi asked.
He was very curious about the matter, for in the current state of Primordial, aside from the Innate Supreme Treasure that mysteriously disappeared in the West, no significant events had happened.
But could it be a small matter that required his elder brother to borrow the Donghuang Bell?
Di Jun pondered for a moment, then told Donghuang Taiyi about Yang Mei and the Chaotic Beast.
After all, Hong Jun Ancestor had not asked them to keep it a secret.
However, regarding matters of his own cultivation realm, Di Jun did not speak; these involved matters were glossed over in a single sentence.
Listening to his elder brother’s account, Donghuang Taiyi thought to himself.
He aspired to experience Di Jun’s battles, longing to fight side by side with his brother.
For this reason, Taiyi had been cultivating diligently, comprehending the Heavenly Dao, but he always felt out of reach of his brother’s realm.
Even though he himself is a Quasi-Saint who has severed two of his corporeal forms, he still feels inscrutable when facing his elder brother.
“Taiyi, have there been any events in the Immortal Court and the Demon Clan?”
Di Jun directly inquired.
“Just some trivial matters, which have been resolved one by one after discussions amongst us Four Extreme Emperors and the Queen of Heaven.”
“Queen of Heaven? Xi He? Chang Xi?”
Donghuang Taiyi said.
“Since elder brother went to Chaos, Queen Xi He has been stationed at the Immortal Court, while Queen Chang Xi is stationed at the Taiyin Star.”
“All affairs of the Immortal Court and the Demon Clan are discussed by Queen Xi He with the four of us before making decisions.”
In this dialogue, Di Jun could feel Donghuang Taiyi’s respect for Xi He.
It was not because of her status as the queen, but because of what she had done.
Di Jun nodded upon hearing this.
In the thousands of years he was away, Xi He’s change was also significant.
The former Xi He would hardly get involved in various matters between the Demon Clan and the Immortal Court; now she was actively trying to change herself.
Di Jun could even guess that having Chang Xi stay stationed at the Taiyin Star was Xi He’s idea, wanting to better protect Chang Xi and take on the pressure herself.
After collecting his thoughts, Di Jun looked at Donghuang Taiyi and continued to ask: “Has the situation in Primordial changed now?”
The reason he asked Donghuang Taiyi this question was one, he wanted to understand the situation in Primordial.
On the other hand, as the leader of the Immortal Court and the Demon Clan’s war faction, Donghuang Taiyi needed his understanding of the Primordial situation.
Donghuang Taiyi did not immediately answer Di Jun’s question, instead, he pondered for a moment.
“Now the forces that can influence the situation in Primordial are no more than our Demon Clan, the East King’s Immortal Court, and the Witch Clan headed by the Twelve Ancestor Witches.”
