Under the great calamity, the heavenly mechanism is chaotic.

This largely weakens the foreseeing abilities of the Primordial gods.

And after discovering this problem, everyone did the same thing—enhanced interference!

As long as the information is widely interfered with, even the manipulators behind the scenes will be overwhelmed.

We can't "see" anything, and neither should you!

If one or two deities release interference, the people behind the scenes can withstand it.

But hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands?

Under such a massive web of causality, can one still withstand it?

"To shield the entire Primordial heavenly mechanism by conforming to the calamity's outbreak, Fu Xi has this ability, but he's certainly not the only one doing this!"

As early as during the starry sky calamity, Xuanqing discovered that some deities were fanning the flames, collectively obscuring the heavenly mechanism.

Now, with the outbreak of the Fierce Beasts calamity, this tactic reappears.

It's hard not to arouse suspicion.

In the entire Primordial world, Xuanqing didn't do this, Fu Xi might be doing it, but who else is most likely to act?

"Hong Jun, Yang Mei, Luo Hou, could the three of them be doing it together?"

Xuanqing contemplated, ninety-nine percent sure Hong Jun and Yang Mei were up to something; that couldn't be mistaken.

Luo Hou also had plenty of motivation to do this.

The Demon Ancestor wasn't a proper god to begin with, and if he noticed Hong Jun taking action, he would definitely choose a similar method to counteract, to vex his old rival.

"Let me think, who else... Hmm, Shen Ni is also highly suspect."

Xuanqing identified another target.

After experiencing the starry sky war, Shen Ni must remember this tactic well.

Does he have the ability to shield the entire Primordial heavenly mechanism, or even build upon this?

Of course, he does!

"As the standout of this great calamity, he can't do it alone, but with so many demon gods assisting, he can surely accomplish this."

When Xuanqing calculated that Shen Ni was involved, he smiled.

After suffering so much, Shen Ni has grown considerably!

BOOM!!

Just as Xuanqing also planned to release some interference information, the [Great Dao True Realm] trembled.

A stream of Zi Qi descended from the void, directly entering the Netherworld.

"Xuanqing, I haven't arrived too late, have I?" Taishang emerged, full of smiles, looking refreshed.

He wore the Taiji Robe, with the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Linglong Tower floating above his head, holding the Palm Leaf Fan in his left hand, pressing the Seven Star Sword with his right hand, and a Purple Gold Red Gourd hung on the Golden Cloth Rope at his waist, with the Eight Sceneries Palace Lamp encircling him, igniting with fierce purple flames.

If he were to take out the Earth Leaving Flame Light Banner and the Eight Diagrams Purple Gold Furnace, he'd be armed to the teeth.

Xuanqing laughed: "Taiching Daoist Venerate, truly the Great Dao is profound and martial virtue is abundant!"

With Taishang traveling the Primordial in this guise, who dares say he's not virtuous?

He's extremely virtuous!

"Oh, Daoist friend overpraises, overpraises." Taishang said so with his mouth, but his smile became even brighter.

It's a pity third brother isn't here, otherwise he could have heard his praise!

Feeling delighted inside, Taishang put away his equipment, then thought: "Huh? The heavenly mechanism is chaotic? Who did this?"

"No, I purposely delayed breaking through Taixu until after the great calamity, yet Yu Chen has already entered the calamity, so why is there no movement?"

"Could it be he plans to use himself as bait, then trap someone?"

No matter how chaotic the heavenly mechanism is, Taishang wouldn't fail to perceive Yu Chen's state.

Faced with such doubts, Xuanqing said: "Why don't you just ask directly."

"Okay!" Taishang contacted Yu Chen.

[Third brother, who are you trying to trap? Need help?]

[... How did the Dao brother know I had such intentions, could it be my acting wasn't subtle enough, making it too obvious?]

Daoist Lord Yu Chen hesitated for a moment, then replied.

Hearing this, Taishang was overjoyed.

He cheerfully replied: [No, no, you are doing great, it's just that we know you so well, outsiders would absolutely not notice!]

[Good, then.] Daoist Lord Yu Chen heaved a sigh of relief.

[Is there any area where help is needed?] Taishang asked again.

[Not at the moment, because I haven't chosen a target and I'm not sure who will bump into me.]

Taishang: [Alright, if there's a big fish, remember to inform us, we Three Pure Ones love to single-handedly challenge others.]

Yu Chen: [Okay!]

After spending so much time with Xuanqing and Taishang, these two schemers, Daoist Lord Yu Chen has subtly undergone some changes, leaning towards being more cunning.

It is unknown who will be the lucky one!

"Using oneself as 'bait,' third brother is indeed quite principled." Xuanqing remarked.

Laughing beside him, Taishang said: "Elder brother, your standards are too high; not everyone can be as smooth and untraceable in scheming as you and leave no marks!"

After becoming Taixu Da Luo, through the special connection they share via Qi fortune of the Three Pure Ones, he specifically reviewed Xuanqing's past years.

He saw distinctly different aspects from Xuanqing's grand schemes.

Every setup was so smooth, so smooth that if he returned to those time nodes, he'd probably be led by Xuanqing's agenda.

And this, was the part that Xuanqing actively allowed him to perceive.

What about the unseen parts?

"Second brother, don't overthink."

Xuanqing patted Taishang's shoulder, "We Three Pure Ones are all one family, we can't scheme against each other!"

Xuanqing's eyes were clear, with an honest face.

Taishang's expression became solemn, daring not to disbelieve.

"What are you talking about?" Meng Wuyou arrived at the Seven Fei Heavenly Palace.

"Nothing."

Xuanqing and Taishang shook their heads at the same time.

Meng Wuyou looked at the two of them, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Very strange.

"Where is Daoist Ming River?" Taishang smoothly shifted the topic.

"Oh, him."

Meng Wuyou and Xuanqing exchanged smiles and said, "As soon as the apocalypse began, he eagerly headed to the Primordial Land."

"Now Ming River's footprints have already reached All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds."

Taishang suddenly realized and laughed, "Indeed!"

"With Ming River mastering the [Killing Tribulation Heavenly Dao], during this apocalypse, he's truly at ease; no need to worry about his safety."

In peaceful times, danger would come his way wherever Ming River went.

When the apocalypse arrives, the more dangerous situations he encounters, the deeper his Qi Fortune becomes.

The deeper the Qi Fortune, the stronger the enemies he meets.

In such a cycle, as long as Ming River keeps wandering, he can keep dodging between 'falling into traps' and 'turning peril into safety'.

"There's one more thing, I just discovered the Heavenly Secret in Chaos; the future is hard to predict, what's going on?"

Taishang turned to Xuanqing, "Brother Dao, have you calculated anything?"

Xuanqing countered, "Whom have you calculated on?"

Taishang said, "Luo Hou, Hong Jun!"

"Though this apocalypse is a calamity of fierce beasts, it is also a calamity of Demon Gods."

"The ancestors of Immortal Dao and Demon Path are originally from Chaos Demon Gods, thoroughly familiar with deceiving 'their kind'."

"Of course, I also suspect that new Demon Gods have arrived, like the Order Demon God, for instance; since he can manage order, he can also distort it."

The conclusions drawn by Xuanqing were based on their strength, while Taishang's deductions started with Demon Gods.

The results turned out to be the same.

"Our predictions are quite similar." Xuanqing shared his speculations with Taishang and Wuyou.

Then, they informed Yu Chen, Ming River, and Wangchuan along the way.

The group released some fake Da Luo information together.

The involvement of these six Da Luo Supremes made the Heavenly Secret that was already chaotic into a tangled mess.

None can easily unravel and obtain the most real information in an instant.

~~~

Western Evil God Hall, countless Divine Evil Banners floated in the void, one after another Demon God phantoms crossed time and space to arrive.

"Thank you, Daoists, for coming to attend the meeting!" Beast Emperor Shen Ni cupped his hands.

"Daoist Shen Ni is too polite!"

Various Demon Gods engaged in battles across the Primordial descended with their phantoms into the hall.

Both Dark Demon God and Bright Demon God were among them.

With the thought of "earning merits for reduced punishment," they gladly accepted Shen Ni's summons and returned to the sequence of Chaos Demon Gods.

Darkness and Light over these years, after repeated account reconciliation and observation, still feel that following [Prison Chief] is most promising.

Though Shen Ni's momentum is vast, he might not be able to compete with the group of Primordial deities led by Xuanqing!

Thus, the two made up their minds to act as undercover agents for the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Demon Sect.

Even if they can't be completely free by then, they plan to sabotage a few Demon Gods to accompany them in prison.

Seeing most Demon Gods arrived, Dark Demon God spoke first, "These Primordial Gods are indeed no easy meddler!"

"The chaos of the Heavenly Secret has further intensified; it is tremendously challenging even for us to calculate cause and effect."

Bright Demon God sighed and said, "If Heavenly Mechanism Daoist hadn't descended, otherwise with his help, we could definitely step Primordial Gods underfoot!"

At this moment, Shen Ni explained, "I specifically contacted Heavenly Mechanism Daoist, but for unknown reasons, couldn't establish contact, and even the divine artifact representing Heavenly Mechanism Dao has gone missing."

"In such a situation, either Heavenly Mechanism Daoist went down, or he deliberately avoided us, unwilling to participate in this apocalypse."

Among the Demon Gods, Heavenly Mechanism Demon God is a very special existence.

Generally, only He could precisely locate the possibilities of other Demon Gods; it's hard for other Demon Gods to find him.

So whether this Demon God is dead or alive, there's simply no way to confirm it.

"Since that's the case, let's not squander effort in finding Him."

Destruction Demon God spoke, "Daoist, try if you can locate the [True Demon God]; with Him, we will possess the strongest power of [Remove False and Keep True]."

"No matter whether in eliminating spies within the Fierce Beast Clan or in breaking through all illusory means, it holds great significance!"

"Indeed!" A voice sounded, slightly low and magnetic.

[Fate Demon God] was slender in stature, wearing a light blue silk robe, white-faced without a beard, stepping on Cloud Shoes, holding Jade Book, imbued with an extraordinary temperament.

"If we receive help from [True] Daoist, my grasp on the future would be more precise, even chaotic Heavenly Secret couldn't block my eyes."

"So, those intricate lines of cause will no longer be obstacles in our path forward."

All Demon Gods nodded upon hearing this.

"The Great Dao of [True] Daoist is indeed, besides Heavenly Mechanism Dao, the best method of breaking through the stalemate."

"Even, to a certain extent, its role in this apocalypse was far superior to Heavenly Mechanism."

Beast Emperor Shen Ni listened to everyone's opinions and nodded, "Understood, after this meeting, I will proceed to prepare for the summoning!"

Dark Demon God and Bright Demon God felt a chill inside.

[Trouble, if True Daoist arrives, we risk exposure.]

Heavenly Mechanism Demon God may not necessarily aim blindly.

But True Demon God would definitely truly be them!

If they got exposed, wouldn't they be beaten to death by this group of Demon Gods?

Not just them, all those Primordial Gods embedded in the Fierce Beast teams would be doomed.

[Quickly notify the Great Emperor, he surely has ways to deal with it.]

[Yes, the Great Emperor is so cunning, surely he has ways to get rid of truth.]
