The name East King was also bestowed by the heavens, known from birth.
East King, he turned out to be the East King.
Head of Male Immortals, the founder of the Immortal Court, he was also one of the ambitious ones.
According to legends of later generations, during that period, the Immortal Court's power was only ranked below the Witch Demons.
It's a pity that he was eventually defeated by the Demon Clan, and it seems that East King was personally executed by Donghuang Taiyi.
However, Di Jun recalled East King's somewhat dazed appearance during the recent battle, and his echoing responses like a parrot, it was hard to see any sign of ambition in him.
This made Di Jun question the legends about the future.
There are indeed too many secrets in the Primordial, and the tales he knew were not many.
"Zifu Continent is also a good place."
Wang Shu nodded at East King.
She had also been to Zifu Continent and likewise found no Life forms.
She too was a fortunate one favored by the Heavenly Dao.
Wang Shu now thought back, whether it was the Sun Star or the Zifu Continent, both were good places with abundant Spiritual Energy, perfectly suitable as a Daoist School.
But if it weren't for East King and Di Jun mentioning it, she might not have realized such places existed.
Perhaps had she not been born on the Taiyin Star, she would have overlooked it too.
Wang Shu couldn't help but look up, then glanced again at Di Jun and East King, couldn't help but feel like she had stumbled upon two treasures.
Originally, she had merely encountered six Demon Golden Immortals and intended to eliminate them with ease, but as a result, she uncovered these two beings.
Even if Di Jun and East King wouldn't be able to defeat those six demons, at most they would suffer a bit, without any danger to their lives.
After the two introduced themselves, Wang Shu asked again, "Do you two young friends know the current situation in the Primordial?"
Di Jun shook his head and said, "I don't know, I left the Sun Star not long ago."
"I don't know either, I just left Zifu Continent not long ago."
East King also said.
"Could the elder please inform us two, what is the current situation in the Primordial?"
Di Jun asked.
Wang Shu had already spoken to this extent, Di Jun naturally understood what she meant.
Moreover, Di Jun also wanted to know the current situation in the Primordial, to determine which period it was in, to plan accordingly.
Now with a Daluo Golden Immortal willing to enlighten, Di Jun couldn't ask for more.
"Originally, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans were schemed against by Luo Hou; they began a decisive battle where the Ancestral Dragon, Primordial Phoenix, and Ancient Qilin, the three powerful beings, perished and all three clans then retreated into seclusion."
"Subsequently, Luo Hou demonstrated his ambition, established the Demon Path, intending to unify the Primordial by leveraging its destiny, to advance even further."
"Wherever the Demon Path went, it meant either submission or annihilation. And even in submission, one's life wouldn't necessarily be spared."
Wang Shu's clear and gentle voice continued.
Her words were few, but the minds of Di Jun and East King couldn't help but conjure up a series of images depicting just how cruel and evil the Demon Path founded by Luo Hou was.
Is this the ability of a Daluo Golden Immortal?
Di Jun wondered.
East King, on the other hand, was captivated by the story and couldn't help but ask, "And then? Did they just let Luo Hou do whatever he wanted?"
"Of course not!"
Wang Shu said with determination.
"As Luo Hou's influence was at its peak, Hong Jun Ancestor, Dian Dao Ancestor, Qian Kun Ancestor, and Yin Yang Ancestor stood out together, leading the lifeforms who refused to submit, to jointly resist Luo Hou."
As Wang Shu spoke, her face unconsciously carried a sense of respect.
Di Jun and East King watched as the tapestry in their minds changed. Amidst severe hardships, four ancestors led various creatures to continually battle against Luo Hou, fighting for a space to survive.
"Now Luo Hou occupies the Western Primordial, while we, the lifeforms unwilling to submit, live in the Eastern Primordial."
"However, Luo Hou's ambition to unify the Primordial has never extinguished, thus our war against the Demon Path has never ceased."
The tapestry changed again, displaying one battle after another before the eyes of East King and Di Jun.
Compared to the previous tapestry, these scenes shook the hearts of Di Jun and East King even more.
The previous tapestry contained things that were too vague, after all, many creatures involved had cultivation levels higher than Wang Shu, and naturally could not be displayed.
Moreover, for lifeforms at such realms, if Wang Shu were to depict the details, it would lead to the involvement of their spiritual consciousness.
That is to say, it would not be possible here in the easternmost end of the Primordial, otherwise Luo Hou could inflict heavy blows on the few before her, or even annihilate them, through the tracing of his name.
The subsequent battles depicted were wars fought by the lower-class creatures, truly rivers of blood and mountains of corpses, and they made Di Jun and East King truly feel the brutality of war.
Is this the famed struggle between Dao and Demon of later legends?
Di Jun thought to himself.
The situation represented by these brief four words was even more tragic than what Di Jun had imagined.
Regarding the distinction between good and evil mentioned by Wang Shu, Di Jun was reserved in his judgment.
The struggle between Dao and Demon is a battle for the supremacy of the Dao, the battle of one's own Dao, and cannot simply be categorized as good versus evil.
Regardless, the four ancestors indeed fought for a relatively peaceful living area for them.
"Luo Hou deserves to die!"
East King said with righteous indignation, gritting his teeth.
Wang Shu looked at East King's expression with satisfaction. But seeing Di Jun's relatively calm face, she couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Both of your talents are admirable. How about joining us to fight against Luo Hou?"
Wang Shu extended an invitation to Di Jun and East King.
"Good! Let's fight against Luo Hou together."
East King agreed without any hesitation.
However, Di Jun had more to consider, pondering in his heart.
Fighting against Luo Hou would undoubtedly be fraught with danger, but the benefits were also very clear, as in the end, it was the Dao that triumphed in the struggle between Dao and Demon.
To some extent, he could also share in the spoils of this victory.
Danger and gain, both weighed continuously in the heart of Di Jun.
East King looked at Di Jun, wanting to say something, but after considering Di Jun's earlier performance, he ultimately remained silent.
Wang Shu also observed Di Jun. In her heart, Di Jun held more weight than East King.
Even though the potential of East King and Di Jun was similar, Di Jun far exceeded East King in both character and combat strength.
According to Wang Shu's judgment, with a bit more tempering, Di Jun could contend with an ordinary Daluo Golden Immortal.
Wang Shu herself was not just an average Daluo Golden Immortal, and this was not self-praise; among the Daluo Golden Immortals of the Eastern Primordial, she was also notable.
Especially now, as the war between the Western Primordial and Eastern Primordial grew more intense, such talents became even more precious, with each additional one representing an extra measure of strength.
It was for this reason that Wang Shu personally extended an invitation to the two.
