Kunpeng's heart leaped wildly, stirring up enormous waves within him.
He had originally occupied one of the prayer mats during the first lecture.
However, Hong Yun had naively trusted Jie Yin and Zhun Ti, which led to him being targeted as well.
Coupled with Yuanshi and the others adding fuel to the fire, Kunpeng was also forced off the mat, replaced by Jie Yin.
Therefore, it could be said that since the three lectures began, Kunpeng had harbored resentment and anger in his heart.
Now, as the Primordial Purple Qi drifted over, Kunpeng couldn't help but speculate.
Although he had missed out on the "Hongjun's disciple" title, shouldn't this Primordial Purple Qi still belong to him?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and Kunpeng's breathing grew heavier.
Fortunately, learning from Duke of the East's example, Kunpeng tried his best to suppress his overwhelming joy and anticipation, appearing quite indifferent.
However, it was foreseeable that in the hidden destiny, this Primordial Purple Qi did not belong to Kunpeng.
All of this was just his fantasy and imagination.
Sure enough!
Just as the Primordial Purple Qi was about to merge with Kunpeng, showering him with immortal light, The previous scene replayed itself.
The Primordial Purple Qi leaped away nimbly once again, flashing with dazzling light, instantly bypassing Kunpeng.
In the blink of an eye, Kunpeng's heart sank, and his face froze.
However, this time, before he could react further, the Primordial Purple Qi seemed to have finally ended its "teasing" of the crowd.
The Primordial Purple Qi did not linger over anyone else's head, but instead seemed to have finally found its ultimate target.
With a flash of divine light, it directly entered Hong Yun's sea of consciousness.
Another feint!
The gathered powerful figures were dumbfounded, their faces twitching.
Damn it...
This Primordial Purple Qi was too infuriating.
Some even suspected whether it had developed its own consciousness, deliberately toying with the three thousand powerful figures?
Similarly, watching the Primordial Purple Qi ultimately fall into Hong Yun's hands, the crowd was consumed with jealousy.
Kunpeng, after a brief moment of distraction, immediately reacted.
His face turned ashen, blood-red light bursting from his eyes, filled with boundless hatred!
Hong Yun again!
He had implicated him before, causing him to lose the enlightenment mat!
And today, he was going to snatch away the Primordial Purple Qi that was within his grasp?!
Killing and humiliating!
This was simply blatant killing and humiliation!
Needless to say, the hatred in Kunpeng's eyes was almost tangible, causing an icy, bone-chilling aura to emanate from his surroundings.
As for Hong Yun, Clearly feeling the Primordial Purple Qi enter his sea of consciousness, he was first stunned, then overjoyed when he came to his senses.
"This... the final Primordial Purple Qi, belongs to this humble Daoist?"
"Haha, Hong Yun thanks Dao Ancestor!"
Unable to hide his excitement, Hong Yun immediately bowed to Hongjun in gratitude.
Compared to the fervent expectations of the many powerful figures, Hong Yun had a sense of detachment, thinking, "If I get it, it's my fortune; if I lose it, it's my fate."
Therefore, the true arrival of the Primordial Purple Qi was an even greater surprise to him.
Hong Yun did not deliberately conceal his emotions, and his excitement was evident.
However, he completely failed to notice the gazes of the powerful figures directed at him, filled with envy, jealousy, hatred, and intense covetousness.
Kunpeng, in particular, gnashed his teeth, filled with hatred and anger.
On the other side, Zhen Yuanzi, dressed in a plain Daoist robe, wore a worried expression.
He and Hong Yun were known to all as close friends.
If there was one person in the entire world who did not covet Hong Yun's opportunity, it would probably be Zhen Yuanzi.
Therefore, he was only concerned for Hong Yun's well-being.
Chen Ku, even more so, shook his head secretly, muttering in a very low voice:
"A common man is innocent, but he is condemned for possessing treasure!"
"This Hong Yun is still complacent, unaware that great disaster is imminent."
Needless to say, beings like Kunpeng, and at this moment, even the other great powers, had killing intent written all over their faces.
You must understand, Hong Yun is different from the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Jie Yin, and Zhun Ti.
The latter six ultimately have the title of disciples under Hongjun, and their own strength is already shocking, worthy of being called top-tier existences in this era.
Therefore, even though the Primordial Purple Qi is extremely precious, the other great powers naturally wouldn't dare to have any other thoughts or schemes towards these six.
But Hong Yun can't be said to have any background or backing.
And because of his "do-gooder" nature, people feel that he can be provoked and bullied at will, without any need for fear.
It's not hard to imagine that from this day on, Hong Yun will have to face countless secretly malicious gazes.
Hearing these words, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti's expressions both shifted, and they looked at Chen Ku with considerable surprise.
This kid, his vision is so sharp, he has already seen the essence of Hong Yun obtaining the Primordial Purple Qi?!
Rare, truly rare!
Immediately, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti's gazes became even more gratified.
Before Jie Yin and Zhun Ti could say much.
At this time, after the distribution of the Primordial Purple Qi was completed, Hongjun's body was radiant with immortal light, his holy might surging, becoming even more majestic.
"The three lectures have completely ended!"
"You and the others, return to the Primordial World, should spread the Dao and transmit the Dharma, to teach and transform sentient beings with the Immortal Dao."
"This seat will hereby merge with the Dao, and will not appear in the world!"
Hongjun said this, indicating the complete end of the three lectures.
And if it were just like this, the three thousand great powers wouldn't feel anything inappropriate.
But Hongjun paused, then his gaze shifted, surveying the crowd, and continued:
"Chen Ku, you stay!"
As soon as these words came out, all the great powers present were shocked and puzzled!
Hongjun singled out Chen Ku to stay, what does this mean?!
You must know that some of Chen Ku's previous actions, although they surprised everyone greatly, could barely be described as "eye-catching."
But in terms of cultivation, eight or nine out of ten of the great powers present were higher than Chen Ku.
According to common sense, he would never attract such special attention from Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
"Hehe, now that the bestowal of treasures and the Primordial Purple Qi are all completed."
"Dao Ancestor's move, could it be that he wants to start with politeness first, then resort to force, and settle accounts with that Chen Ku?"
Some great powers whispered to each other, with a gloating expression on their faces.
If that were really the case, some great powers would be happy to see it.
After all, Chen Ku has reaped a full harvest from this lecture and treasure distribution.
Everyone is unwilling to see the latter being too smug.
On the side, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti also paused at this time, their brows furrowed, completely confused.
Chen Ku is ultimately Jie Yin's disciple, and now Dao Ancestor Hongjun is so strong.
He didn't even ask for Jie Yin's opinion, and directly opened his mouth, wanting to keep Chen Ku.
Jie Yin and Zhun Ti couldn't help but have complex thoughts, half joy and half worry!
However, with thoughts turning in their minds, there was no expression on their faces.
After pondering for a moment, they could only give Chen Ku a subtle "good luck" look, and then left the Purple Cloud Palace first.
It's not that the two are timid, choosing to abandon Chen Ku!
But they are very clear that in the face of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, they have no right to refuse at all.
As for the inside story, they can only wait for this matter to end before asking Chen Ku.
Before long, figures left one after another.
In the empty Purple Cloud Palace, only Hongjun and Chen Ku were left.
And if we were to say who had the biggest reaction in their heart, it would naturally be Chen Ku himself.
His heart sank suddenly, and a great sense of unease surged.
Looking at Dao Ancestor Hongjun's calm face with suspicion, a deeply suppressed thought flashed through Chen Ku's mind.
"Could it be that my identity as a transmigrator has been exposed?!"
"Dao Ancestor Hongjun wants to obliterate the anomaly and kill me to silence me?!"
