The Thirteenth Incarnation of the Earth's Cycle (Three)

  Minghe was enraged by Kunpeng's words, and his true body joined forces with Shan Shi to launch a joint attack on Kunpeng. He intended to behead Kunpeng once and for all, while his Blood God clone was entangled in a fierce battle with Zu Wu Hou Tu, restraining him from lending assistance to Kunpeng.

  The actions of the Underworld River coincided with the plan devised by Hou Tu and Kun Peng, so Hou Tu cooperated with the Underworld River's performance and entangled with the Blood God Split Body, not disturbing his battle with Kun Peng.

  The body of Minghe held Yuantu, Anbi, two treasure swords like Jiaolong, flying up and down, surrounding Kunpeng fiercely attacking, while his good corpse held a red pre-heavenly calabaza, sprinkling out a sky full of red sand, covering the entire bloody sea. The origin of this calabaza is not simple, it was born from the calabaza vine of the three great spiritual roots of the pre-heaven, with immense power, able to capture souls and seize spirits. Originally belonging to Hongyun, when Hongyun self-destructed and heavily injured Kunpeng, Minghe took advantage of the opportunity to snatch away this calabaza, which is also the root cause of the feud between Minghe and Kunpeng.

  Facing the attack of Minghe's entity and Shan Shi, Kunpeng took out the pre-heavenly spiritual treasure 'Wheel of Reincarnation Mirror' to protect himself, and from time to time, he released the reincarnation light unique to the 'Wheel of Reincarnation Mirror' to attack Minghe's Shan Shi. Generally, cultivators who were illuminated by the reincarnation light would be knocked down to the Nine Underworlds and suffer from the burning of karma fire. Minghe's Shan Shi was originally barely cut out, but when it was illuminated by the reincarnation light, he felt a strong suction force that wanted to pull him into the land of the Nine Underworlds.

  "'Lunhui Baoming' was released, and the good corpse of Minghe was beaten by Kunpeng to the point where he had no power to fight back. He could only rely on 'Twelve Productive Fire Red Lotus' to protect himself, and the situation was extremely dangerous. If he wasn't careful, there was a possibility of being killed. Minghe saw this and was also very anxious, but for the time being, he couldn't do anything about Kunpeng, so he could only anxiously watch."

  Kun Peng did not want to kill Minghe's good corpse, he hit Minghe's good corpse so hard just because he wanted Minghe to be afraid of being counterattacked, and not dare to threaten him too much, so that he could have the opportunity to take away the two pre-heavenly treasure swords in Minghe's hands.

  Minghe was unaware of Kunpeng's plan and could only be led by the nose, after a long battle, Minghe's Shānzǐ became more precarious, already in a precarious situation. If the Shānzǐ were to be killed, Minghe would suffer greatly, at least one-third of his cultivation would be lost, and it was uncertain whether he could preserve his Quan Sheng cultivation.

  Minghe couldn't bear to let Kunpeng slaughter his own benevolent corpse, so he launched a fierce attack with all his might, wielding the two swords "Yuantu" and "Abi", seeking to resolve the crisis for the benevolent corpse.

  Kunpeng's thoughts were all focused on Shan Shi, and he knew the time had come. He quickly transformed the long-held 'Ripening Wheel' into a light curtain, covering the two swords 'Yu Tu' and 'A Bi', and quickly cut off the connection between the two swords and Minghe. At the same time, the 'Moon Essence Wheel' struck out like lightning, slashing onto Minghe's body.

  Minghe never thought that Kunpeng would have such a deep scheme, and under unguarded circumstances, he was hit by the 'Moon Essence Wheel' and immediately suffered heavy losses. The two swords 'Yuantu' and 'Anbi' were Minghe's trump cards, and he recklessly charged towards the light curtain transformed by the 'Sun Essence Wheel', and in a nearly self-destructive situation, he finally broke through the defense of the 'Sun Essence Wheel' and established contact with the two swords.

  Kunpeng carefully arranged everything, how could he let Minghe easily take back the two treasures. He abandoned his attack on Minghe's corpse, and with a turn of the 'Wheel of Rebirth Mirror' in his hand, a bolt of lightning struck towards Minghe, while the 'Moon Essence Wheel' in the air struck 'Anbi' flying like a dragon. Kunpeng's body flashed, quickly taking 'Anbi' into his hand. When he wanted to take 'Yuantu' again, Minghe had already put this sword into his body.

  Minghe understood the situation and knew that the great trend had already gone, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of retreat in his heart. His good corpse took advantage of Kunpeng's attack on his body to escape back to the Blood Sea, which comforted him greatly.

  Kun Peng held the 'Anbi Sword' in his hand, and he was also very excited. From now on, he no longer had to worry about not having a spiritual treasure for the evil corpse. The 'Anbi Sword' was originally a sword of slaughter, which was very suitable for the evil corpse. Although he only seized 'Anbi' and did not take down 'Yuantu' at the same time, it was also very difficult to achieve such results.

  Looking at Kunpeng's smiling face, Minghe was extremely angry, but he couldn't do anything to Kunpeng. He knew that it would be very difficult to retrieve 'Anbi' from Kunpeng's hands. So he angrily said: "Kunpeng, you win today, but don't get too cocky, Laozu doesn't believe you can always be so lucky."

  Kun Peng sneered: "Minghe, what's the point of saying so much? If you have the ability, let's fight again."

  Minghe gave Kunpeng a fierce glance, then let out a cold snort and turned to run back into the Sea of Blood.

  Kunpeng turned to face Houtu and said, "Houtu fellow Taoist, the Nether River has been injured by me and will not recover within a thousand years. You should take this opportunity to establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation, lest he recovers and comes to obstruct you again. This 'Reincarnation Treasure Mirror' is related to the Six Paths of Reincarnation and can lend you a helping hand." As Kunpeng spoke, he handed the 'Reincarnation Treasure Mirror' over to Houtu.

  Houtu had seen the power of the treasure mirror and knew it was a rare pre-heavenly spiritual treasure. Kunpeng's willingness to give it to her showed his sincerity. She took the mirror, examined it carefully, and understood its function. With emotion, Houtu said: "This 'Wheel of Reincarnation Mirror' is indeed extraordinary, but relying solely on it is still not enough to establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation. I need to transform my body into the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but with this mirror, I can preserve a thread of life. Perhaps this is the arrangement of heaven for me!"

  After Houtu made up his mind to reincarnate in the six paths, it was a response from heaven and earth. The dark and mysterious blood sea churned for a moment, but did not set off a towering wave, instead, the entire thing seemed like a sudden jump, shaking the Underworld River who was nursing his wounds in the blood sea, causing him to be greatly shocked. He calculated with his fingers and the result made him even more shocked and pale.

  All living things in the world have a certain response. Especially those with great spiritual power. Outside the thirty-three heavens, saints opened their eyes, each with a different color in their eyes, and it was unclear whether they were sighing or excited, as if relieved, then closed their eyes again, and their spirits wandered away.

  Houtu turned to Kunpeng and said, "Thank you for pointing this out, now I know the heavenly secret. In the future, there will be a great disaster for the Wu tribe. Although it is said that the Wu tribe acts strangely and does not follow the Heavenly Way, it should not be exterminated. I hope that you can spare the Wu tribe's bloodline on my account!"

  Kunpeng sighed: "The demon tribe is not something I can control, I can only do my best to preserve a thread of life for the witch tribe."

  Houtu said: "It's good that you have this heart, success or failure depends on the will of heaven!" After finishing speaking, Houtu saluted Kunpeng.

  Kunpeng hastily returned the courtesy, saying: "Fellow Taoist, the Wu tribe is transformed from Pangu's bloodline. I should take care of them." He wasn't afraid of trouble either. According to later generations' memories, the Wu tribe hadn't been exterminated, and besides, the Heavenly Way wouldn't easily let Pangu's descendants completely perish after all they had Pangu's legacy of opening up the sky.

  Houtu smiled upon hearing Kunpeng's words and said, "I, Houtu, am willing to transform my body into the Six Paths of Reincarnation, providing a place for the souls of the Honghuang multitude to settle, in order to complete the merits of the Primordial Heavenly Father who opened up the sky."

  Houtu spoke and then turned to face the Blood Sea, taking a step forward, her body stretching out in all directions, slowly merging into the Blood Sea. The Six Paths of Reincarnation gradually took shape. As Houtu's body disappeared, the Six Paths of Reincarnation became more perfect. When Houtu's body completely disappeared, the Six Paths of Reincarnation were fully established.

  At this moment, the Heavenly Way felt and transformed into a large piece of auspicious cloud, which descended onto the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The auspicious cloud was divided into two parts, with 80% flowing towards the reincarnation and 20% flying towards Kunpeng's body. Upon seeing the auspicious cloud, Kunpeng immediately sensed that the Six Paths of Reincarnation had been established and knew that it was a result of guiding Hou Tu to build the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

  The ancestral witch Hou Tu, who was about to perish, unexpectedly gave birth to her primordial spirit after obtaining this merit. This is a great contribution made by the Heavenly Dao, giving her a thread of life. Although she cultivated her primordial spirit, she would never be able to escape the cycle of reincarnation in the six paths for the rest of her life.

  The giant merit crashed into him, but he didn't absorb it into his body. Instead, he guided it into the acquired treasure "Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Merit Ruler" obtained from the Split Treasure Rock. A golden light flashed by, and the originally pale yellow "Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Merit Ruler" transformed into a golden light throughout its entire body, indicating that its quality had been greatly enhanced. From now on, the "Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Merit Ruler" could be considered a true acquired treasure, rivaling the "Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Bell Tower" as one of the two greatest acquired treasures. Unfortunately, this "Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Merit Ruler", although also an acquired treasure, was biased towards attacking and far inferior to the "Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Bell Tower" in suppressing aura fluctuations. However, this "Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Merit Ruler" ranked second only to the innate treasure "Pangu Fan" in terms of attack power, and since it was an acquired treasure, killing with it would not incur karmic consequences.

  Looking at the 'Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Merit Ruler' in his hand, Kun Peng couldn't help but sigh: "This time I've really gained a lot. Not only did I seize Minghe's 'Anbi Sword', but also used great merit to evolve this 'Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Merit Ruler' into a true acquired treasure of the highest order. However, I've made an enemy of Minghe this time, and next time we meet it will be a fight to the death."

  Thinking of Minghe, Kunpeng's face was somewhat helpless. Minghe had the backing of the dark and mysterious Blood Sea, which made him virtually indestructible, equivalent to a saint. However, Minghe was also quite foolish. If he hadn't obstructed Hou Tu's reincarnation in the Six Paths, he would have gained great merit, and Kunpeng wouldn't be bothering him at this time.
