Compared to the many powerhouses of the Primordial Wilderness, Haotian and Jade Pool were not nearly as troubled.

Within Sky Dome Hall, Haotian sensed his firmly stabilized Late Golden Immortal of the Origin cultivation and smiled faintly.

This breakthrough had not only stabilized his Late Golden Immortal of the Origin cultivation.

Through the cultivation method of the Primordial Heart Sutra, he had also severed three alternative incarnations.

This allowed him to gain the aid of the Three Corpses without taking the Quasi-Sage path. Even Jade Pool had broken through to the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal realm not long ago.

It could be said that in the current Primordial Wilderness, aside from Master, Senior Yang Mei, and some reclusive elders.

He and Jade Pool were the only ones walking the path of the Great Dao.

As for the rest, every last one of them—including the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa—had fallen a step behind and could only take the newly born path of the Heavenly Dao.

That feeling was rather satisfying. At the thought of it, the smile in Haotian's eyes deepened as he sensed the three incarnations within his primordial spirit.

Within his primordial spirit space, Lingxiao, clad in azure robes, was surrounded by Spatial Flowing Light.

Youming, dressed in dark black robes, had faint black qi flowing around him, while Fengyin's white-robed hair drifted with the currents of air.

Though the auras of the three incarnations were not as powerful as the main body's, each carried pure Law Power fluctuations. They possessed Early and Mid Primordial Origin Golden Immortal cultivation.

Haotian was greatly satisfied. Just as he was about to visit Jade Pool, a pressure far beyond imagination suddenly enveloped the entire Primordial World.

This pressure was as vast as Chaos and as weighty as the Heavenly Dao, yet it carried unquestionable holiness and majesty.

Yet when it descended upon Haotian and Jade Pool, it was like a spring breeze brushing past them, quietly avoiding them.

But across the vast lands and starry skies of the Primordial Wilderness, things were different. Purple Qi pervaded heaven and earth, while pressure blanketed the Primordial Wilderness.

This pressure was not violent, yet it bore the weight of Origin, as though the entire Primordial Wilderness had become subordinate to this power.

The Chaos Airflow ceased flowing. The mountains, rivers, and Spirit Veins of the Primordial Wilderness trembled, and even the light of the Sun Star and Moon Star dimmed somewhat.

Across the Primordial Wilderness, whether it was Dijun and Taiyi at Peak Grand Unity, the Three Pure Ones, and Nuwa.

Or the leaders of clans who had only just entered the Great Luo realm, all had their knees weakened by this pressure, unable even to mobilize their primordial spirits.

"Th-This... what kind of power is this?!"

Within the grand hall of the Sun Star, Dijun suddenly rose to his feet. Golden Crow Flame surged around him, yet he still could not resist the pressure, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

Taiyi clenched his fists even tighter. Even his Daoist robe trembled faintly, his face filled with shock.

Because the power of this pressure far exceeded his imagination.

Within Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain, Laozi and the others were in considerably better condition, for this pressure did not oppress them too greatly.

However, they still recognized their Master's aura, and joy appeared in their eyes.

Perhaps to confirm their judgment, an indifferent voice rang out through every corner of the Primordial Wilderness.

"High upon the Ninth Heaven I recline, upon a cushion attaining the true Dao. Beyond heaven and earth, dark and yellow, I shall preside as the honored teacher. Pangu gave birth to Taiji, and the Two Forms and Four Images followed. Leader of the Mystic Gate, one qi transformed into Hongjun."

As the verse fell, the hearts and minds of all sentient beings in the Primordial Wilderness shook violently.

Though they had never met Hongjun, they had heard this name through ancient inheritances. He was an Innate Great Power of the same generation as Yang Mei and Old Ancestor Yin Yang!

"I am Hongjun. I have now attained the Dao and become a Saint. I shall expound the Hunyuan Great Dao at Purple Sky Palace in Chaos. All those fated may come and listen."

As his voice faded, the pressure blanketing the Primordial Wilderness and the Purple Qi at the horizon receded together, as though they had never appeared. Yet monstrous waves had already been stirred throughout the Primordial Wilderness.

"Master has become a Saint! He is even expounding the Hunyuan Great Dao!"

At the peak of Kunlun Mountain, the Three Pure Ones exchanged glances, each seeing wild delight in the others' eyes.

They had been trapped at Peak Grand Unity for over a Thousand Yuanhui. Now, they finally had a chance to learn the method of breaking through!

Within the grand hall of the Sun Star, Taiyi, who had returned, looked somewhat grim, but he still slammed his palm heavily against the pillar beside him.

"The Hunyuan Great Dao! It must be a realm above Great Luo! Brother, we must go!"

Dijun nodded, his expression solemn. "This concerns our opportunity to break through. We cannot be negligent."

"Bai Ze, bring everyone in the clan who has broken through to the Great Luo realm. Accompany Taiyi and me. The rest shall remain behind to guard the Sun Star and must not leave without permission."

"Yes!" Bai Ze bowed in acknowledgment, anticipation flashing through his eyes.

Though he was exceptionally wise, he was currently stuck at the early Great Luo realm. If he could listen to Hongjun's teachings, perhaps he too could touch a higher realm.

On Qixia Mountain, Nuwa was accompanying Fuxi, who had just emerged from seclusion.

Though Fuxi had successfully broken through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, he was now stuck at Late Grand Unity.

Upon hearing that Hongjun would expound the Dao, Nuwa immediately took his hand. "Brother, quickly come with me to Chaos! Master is expounding the Hunyuan Great Dao. This is your opportunity!"

Fuxi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly nodded. The two transformed into a streak of light and flew toward Chaos.

Within Wuzhuang Temple, Zhenyuanzi received a message from Hongyun and smiled as he put away the Spiritual Liquid from the Ginseng Fruit Tree.

"Brother Hongyun, we cannot miss this Hunyuan Great Dao."

A moment later, the two figures met outside the temple and headed toward Chaos side by side.

Deep in the North Sea, Kunpeng opened his cold eyes. With a flap of his wings, he stirred up a thousand layers of waves.

Though he was aloof and proud, he also longed for a breakthrough. Since Hongjun was expounding the Dao, he naturally would not be absent.

Within the Blood Sea, Old Ancestor Minghe stopped refining Blood God Sons, a gleam flashing in his eyes.

"The Hunyuan Great Dao... If I can obtain it, the immortality of the Blood Sea can be expected!"

With that, he left behind a Body Division to guard the Blood Sea while his main body transformed into a streak of blood-red light and departed.

Within Pangu Great Hall, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were gathered around a bonfire in discussion. Upon hearing that Hongjun was expounding the Dao, Zhurong frowned slightly.

"He is merely a cultivator expounding the Dao. What is there to see? Our Witch Clan relies on our physical bodies and laws. We have no need for this!"

"Brother, that is not quite right." Houtu spoke softly from the side, her eyes thoughtful.

"After the Dao-Demon war, all clans have been seeking breakthroughs. Since Dao Ancestor Hongjun was able to become a Saint, he must possess something extraordinary."

"We should go and listen. Perhaps we may find a way to strengthen the Witch Clan. Even if it truly proves useless, there will be no loss."

After pondering for a moment, Dijiang nodded. "Houtu is right. We shall go together, leaving some clansmen behind to guard Pangu Great Hall."

Though the other Ancestral Witches were somewhat unwilling, they still obeyed Dijiang's decision. The twelve figures soon departed from Pangu Great Hall.

At the edge of Chaos, a gentle force came from the direction of Jade Capital Mountain, enveloping Haotian and Jade Pool.

The two merely felt their vision blur, and they had already appeared in an area surrounded by Chaos Airflow.

Ahead of them, a magnificent palace was slowly taking shape. The entire structure was purple, and above its gates were three great golden characters: Purple Sky Palace.

It was precisely a palace condensed from the Law Power of the Jade Disk of Creation.

Hongjun stood before Purple Sky Palace, dressed in Daoist robes, with faint Saint's Pressure lingering around him.

Yet when his gaze fell upon Haotian and Jade Pool, satisfaction filled his eyes.

"Disciple Haotian, Disciple Jade Pool, after more than a Thousand Yuanhui apart, the two of you have both broken through to the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal realm."

"Especially you, Haotian. You have even condensed three law incarnations, far exceeding this master's expectations."

"We disciples have only reached this day through Master's guidance and the aid of fortunate opportunities." Haotian and Jade Pool bowed together.
