Chapter 565: Chapter 528: Duke Wu Temple Fair, Fate Lots Drawing

"Flame Essence, Flame Essence, the Vermilion Bird soars. With a stroke of the Divine Pen, connecting directly with Bing and Ding. The Goddess of Fierce Flames, with the Emperor’s Bell in hand. Samadhi True Fire, swiftly descends upon Zhuling. With the help of the Three Platforms, the Envoy manifests the spirit."

Break the marriage! Burn the body!"

Massive flames of yellow and white coalesced into an enormous Vermilion Bird, sweeping through the ranks of Black Taisui’s minions.

Those oddly shaped flesh eggs, all the deformed offspring, were burned to a crisp with a "crackle and pop."

It then abruptly surged forth, slamming hard against Nuwa’s Intestines.

Transforming into a towering Divine General, alight in crimson red, head of a bird and body of a human, spewing endless fierce flames.

Indeed, it was one of the three Green Seal Evil Gods, the "Heavenly Red Bird," known as the "Wenqu Sun Killer," and the "Heavenly Earth Thieves."

It is said: "The Heavenly Red Bird, shunned on all four sides, brings deaths and funerals, and is avoided on the first day of marriage. Its taboos are not to be violated."

The Heavenly Red Bird, along with its subordinates — the gods of death, past, and funeral — form a stark contrast to the auspicious Doumu Taiyin Lord, who governs marriage and fertility.

Under the influence of the Heavenly Red Bird and its three malevolent subordinates, even those in the ranks that were pregnant became victim to broken marriages and severed fates.

The bizarre fetuses developing within them were dissipated in an instant.

However, none of them possessed Old Master Wang’s ability to eradicate an existence from its roots.

Nuwa’s Intestines, whose life force was extremely tenacious, managed to escape after inflicting harm on a good number of evil gods, leaving behind many charred fragments.

What was once a sizable troop of evil gods, now only about a dozen remained, including the three Green Seals, who successfully broke into the fourth Heavenly Realm.

Not daring to delay, they summoned divine light and charged out of the mist immediately.

The leading Wenqu Sun Killer coldly commanded:

"Yellow Path Granny won’t be digested so easily.

We could all die here, but we must deliver Yellow Path Granny and the Key of the Gate intact to Lord Tai Sui!"

Compared to Wang Yuan and the child’s play of fate called Lay Win, the goals of this group of evil gods were clearer, and they clearly knew more insider information.

The gap between the Heavenly Gate above and below spans an immeasurable dimensional rift, not a space measured in "li."

Even if the Human Dao Torrent eventually breaks through the Heavenly Gate and floods into the Mortal World during the collective human dream.

Even then, behemoths like the Heavenly Official would find it extremely challenging to pass through this "backdoor."

Similar to "Daoism Transformation Disaster," which must be initiated before the end of the First Month to match the Time Order, the Heavenly Official can only pass through at the right "window of time" calculated according to specific time sequences and Life Paths.

As to how to obtain this specific "window," it requires the Key mentioned by the evil gods!

In the beginning,

Black Taisui’s direct lineage affiliate "Yellow Path Granny" was devoured by the Hundred-Eyed Spirit Official’s scheme.

This Heavenly Official thought it was just the usual devouring among affiliates, a common occurrence of cannibalism, just that this time it bit back.

However, when Taishang pointed out the intentions of the Yellow Heaven Divine System,

Black Taisui immediately realized why the opponents connived to consume Yellow Path Granny.

This prompted him to dispatch evil gods in an attempt to mitigate the losses promptly.

If Earth Star were used as the primary viewpoint to draw a line connecting it to the Sun,

over the course of a year of orbit, the path traced by this line would form a plane called the "Yellow Path."

The Yellow Path and the Heavenly Equator intersect at the "Spring Equinox" and "Autumn Equinox."

Black Taisui’s direct lineage affiliate, Yellow Path Granny, is deeply bound to this "Yellow Path."

Its represented powers involve the recording of the Life Paths of all beings in heaven and earth and a part of this world’s Time Order.

The Great Fate also has a similar power called "auspicious days on the Yellow Path."

In fate theory, "Azure Dragon, Mingtang, Golden Chest, Heavenly Virtue, Jade Hall, Fate" are called the six auspicious Yellow Path gods, and the so-called "auspicious days on the Yellow Path" are the days when these six gods are on duty.

The Hundred-Eyed Spirit Official, an entity capable of observing the Life River, could create a makeshift key allowing passage by obtaining a portion of the core powers of either the auspicious god Great Fate or the evil god Black Taisui,

and merging it with one of his affiliates.

If the powers of all three entities were combined, a perfect Key of the Gate for smooth travel through the Heavenly Gate could be forged!

This process of creating the Key of the Gate also provided the other two Purple Seals with an opportunity.

No matter who ultimately lays hands on the Key, they could leverage the same "Path of the Three Fates and the Five Stars" to ensure the Big Winner takes all.

Not only could they secure partial control of the backdoor, they could also simultaneously possess the best attributes of all three parties, emerging as the most likely Big Winner in the power struggle!

With the overall situation and Corpse Dissection Immortal’s Dao on the line, no one could afford to step back.

"Quick, I can sense the approximate location of Yellow Path Granny now; she should be at the ’Colorful Cloud Shop’ in Yellow Millet Village.

Those who entered just before us must be Great Fate’s people.

Rescue Yellow Path Granny, snatch the Key, then let this official devour them alive!"

"Understood!"

With the Wenqu Sun Killer, who is most adept at interpreting Precept Taboos, in the lead, and the powerful Heavenly Red Bird following,

appearing as twin siblings with a small stature, but in reality are the two-faced "Heavenly Earth Thieves," with the "Thief Ancestor" serving as the center,

a dozen or so evil gods surrounded them, charging furiously into "Yellow Millet Village."
