Eavesdropping on Inner Thoughts, Yunxiao Draws Her Sword Against Dingguang Immortal at the Start

This was a meritorious treasure obtained by the Demon Master Kunpeng when he founded the Demon Race's script and gained merit, which he then brought into the palace!

The Demon Master's Palace also descended streams of Xuanhuang Qi, protecting the Demon Master Kunpeng.

Ji Meng, the foremost of the Ten Great Demon Sages, let out a great roar, brandishing his trident and spinning it like a wheel. In an instant, the sound of surging waves filled the air, crashing and surging, blocking the countless red sands.

The remaining Demon Sages and Demon Gods each unleashed their divine abilities, blocking the red sands!

However, some of the demon soldiers and generals were in no position to block the encroachment of the red sands!

The red sands entered their bodies, directly attacking their nascent souls!

In an instant, countless demon soldiers and generals let out tragic howls, their cries of agony echoing everywhere, one after another.

The physical bodies of countless demon soldiers and generals remained intact, but their nascent souls had long been corroded and annihilated by the red sands, turning them into walking corpses that fell to the lower realms, smashing large craters into them.

Old Ancestor Hongyun seized this opportunity, transforming into a streak of red light, and fled into the distance.

Old Ancestor Hongyun was formed from the first wisp of red cloud in the world, a True Immortal of blessed virtue, particularly skilled in escape techniques, and extremely fast!

Yet, it so happened that the people he encountered, such as Di Jun, Taiyi, and the Demon Master Kunpeng, were all masters of speed.

Di Jun and Taiyi were formed from Golden Crows, while the Demon Master Kunpeng soared ninety thousand li upwards, his wings fanning out covering millions of miles in an instant, making him extremely fast.

Moreover, Old Ancestor Hongyun was already severely injured, so how could he possibly escape?

Soon, Old Ancestor Hongyun was once again surrounded by Di Jun, Taiyi, and the Demon Master Kunpeng.

Following this, countless demon soldiers and generals surged forward, encircling Old Ancestor Hongyun layer upon layer.

"Hongyun, I'll say it one more time. Hand over the Primordial Violet Qi, and I'll spare your life. Otherwise, today will be your death day!"

Di Jun held the River Diagram and Luo Script, two supreme treasures, and glared at Old Ancestor Hongyun, shouting in a deep voice.

Old Ancestor Hongyun's face was filled with misery, and he looked at Di Jun and Taiyi with venomous eyes, gritting his teeth. "Hmph, you want the Primordial Violet Qi? Fine, very well. Come and take it!"

"Hmph, you're asking for death!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi, relying on his high cultivation and the supreme treasure Chaos Bell by his side, was bold and daring, stepping forward to seize the Primordial Violet Qi.

"Hahaha, stay here, all of you, stay here..."

Suddenly, Old Ancestor Hongyun laughed to the heavens. Countless fine cracks appeared all over his body, and red light burst forth from the cracks, like molten lava rolling from the fissures in the earth, containing an extremely vast and terrifying energy.

"Not good, he's going to self-detonate! Be careful, brother!"

Di Jun saw the situation and shouted in alarm.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was startled and quickly raised the Chaos Bell above his head.

One must know that Old Ancestor Hongyun was a Quasi-Saint mighty being!

The explosive power of a Quasi-Saint self-detonating was not ordinarily terrifying.

"Boom..."

The next moment, a world-shattering roar erupted. The terrifying energy instantly swept across an area of hundreds of millions of miles, even causing space to collapse. Annihilation forces like earth, water, wind, and fire surged in.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi bore the brunt of it!

Even with the Chaos Bell protecting him, Eastern Emperor Taiyi was directly blown away by the terrifying explosive force, crashing into a great mountain, causing the mountain range spanning hundreds of millions of miles to collapse.

Di Jun, the Demon Master Kunpeng, and the others were also not faring well, being blasted back hundreds of millions of miles.

A streak of red light flew out from the center of the explosion, fleeing into the distance.

"Not good, Hongyun's nascent soul has escaped! Chase him!"

Di Jun saw this and shouted, revealing his Golden Crow true form and flapping his wings to pursue Old Ancestor Hongyun's nascent soul.

The Demon Master Kunpeng and the others also furiously gave chase...

Chapter 31: Tongtian Intercepts, Primordial is Annoyed

Soon, Old Ancestor Hongyun was once again trapped in the demon race's encirclement.

At this moment, only Old Ancestor Hongyun's nascent soul remained, and he didn't even have the magical power to activate the Nine-Nine Soul Scattering Gourd.

Due to the activation of the secret technique, his nascent soul was also extremely weak, almost transparent, as if it could dissipate at any moment.

"Hongyun, hand over the Primordial Violet Qi, or don't blame this Emperor for being impolite!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi held the Chaos Bell and glared at Old Ancestor Hongyun, shouting in a deep voice.

Old Ancestor Hongyun gave a tragic smile, his face filled with anger as he looked at the demon race members, gritting his teeth. "Hmph, don't come any closer. If you come any closer, this humble Taoist will destroy the Primordial Violet Qi!"

As he spoke, Old Ancestor Hongyun flipped his hand, revealing the Primordial Violet Qi and holding it in his palm, ready to self-detonate his nascent soul at any moment.

"Wait, fellow Daoist Hongyun, we can discuss this, we can discuss..."

Di Jun saw this and said hastily.

"Move aside!"

Old Ancestor Hongyun snapped.

Di Jun's eyes blazed with Solar True Fire, and he waved his hand, signaling everyone to step aside.

Old Ancestor Hongyun was overjoyed and turned to flee.

Just then, a small bell suddenly flew towards Old Ancestor Hongyun, hitting him hard and sending him tumbling forward.

The Primordial Violet Qi in his hand was also flung far away.

"Primordial Violet Qi..."

The demons rejoiced, rushing towards the Primordial Violet Qi.

"Zheng..."

At that moment, an immortal sword descended from the sky, emitting a clear ringing sound.

Terrifying sword energy surged in all directions, instantly engulfing everyone.

Even Eastern Emperor Taiyi, protected by the Chaos Bell, was forced tens of thousands of feet away by the fearsome sword energy, daring not to advance further.

"Qingping Sword!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's pupils contracted sharply, and he exclaimed.

Di Jun, Demon Master Kunpeng, and the others' faces changed drastically.

It's over!

A Saint has intervened!

This meant they had no chance with the Primordial Violet Qi!

But they couldn't fathom how the Saint knew they were going to ambush Old Ancestor Hongyun.

The Three Treasures of Heaven-Opening had the effect of disrupting Heavenly Secrets!

Before their actions, the Demon Race had expended immense effort, using the Chaos Bell to disrupt Heavenly Secrets, precisely to prevent Saints from interfering in the competition for the Primordial Violet Qi.

Who would have thought that a Saint would still descend now!

The next moment, Tongtian Cult Master emerged from the void, riding Kui Niu. With a wave of his hand, the Primordial Violet Qi flew into Tongtian Cult Master's palm.

"This..."

Di Jun was anxious but dared not act rashly.

Although this was the Witch-Demon Hegemony Era, Saints were always terrifying existences above all else!

Even as the Heavenly Emperor, he probably couldn't withstand a single sword strike from Tongtian Cult Master!

Tongtian Cult Master examined the Primordial Violet Qi in his hand, secretly marveling, "That brat Li Xiao was right. The Demon Race really ambushed fellow Daoist Hongyun to snatch the Primordial Violet Qi. Thankfully, Yunxiao could hear his thoughts, otherwise this Primordial Violet Qi would have fallen into someone else's hands!"

"Fellow Daoist Tongtian, this Primordial Violet Qi belongs to our Demon Race. We request that the Saint return it!"

Di Jun hesitated for a moment before stepping forward and cupping his hands towards Tongtian Cult Master.

Tongtian Cult Master looked up at Di Jun, directly put away the Primordial Violet Qi, and looked at Di Jun with a sneer, curling his lips, "Fellow Daoist Di Jun, did I hear correctly? This Primordial Violet Qi was originally bestowed upon fellow Daoist Hongyun by the Dao Ancestor. You are snatching it here and actually have the nerve to call it your Demon Race's possession?"

"Tongtian, you must leave the Primordial Violet Qi here today, otherwise... otherwise..."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was hot-tempered. Seeing Tongtian Cult Master take the Primordial Violet Qi, he became furious. His eyes turned red, and Solar True Fire gushed from them as he said in a deep voice.

"Otherwise what? Are you going to make a move against this humble Taoist?"

Tongtian Cult Master narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

At the same time, the Qingping Sword sensed its master's anger, emitting crisp ringing sounds of "zheng zheng zheng," as if it would strike the demons at any moment.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was not one to back down from a fight!

Seeing that Eastern Emperor Taiyi was about to act, Di Jun was startled and quickly pulled Eastern Emperor Taiyi back, smiling sheepishly at Tongtian Cult Master, "The Saint is joking. How would we dare to make a move against a Saint?"

"Hmph, it's good that you wouldn't dare!"

Tongtian Cult Master snorted coldly and extended his hand, grasping downwards. A red light was pulled into his hand.

Clearly, Old Ancestor Hongyun's nascent soul had been taken by Tongtian Cult Master.

Tongtian Cult Master, on the principle of taking something and saving a life, saved Old Ancestor Hongyun's nascent soul.

Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Tongtian Cult Master turned and vanished into the void, returning to Golden Ao Island.

Although the demons were angry, they were helpless!

On Golden Ao Island, within Biyou Palace, Tongtian Cult Master looked at the almost ethereal Old Ancestor Hongyun and said, "Fellow Daoist Hongyun, it's been many days since we last met. I never expected you to end up like this. Alas..."

Old Ancestor Hongyun looked at Tongtian Cult Master, forced a bitter smile, and cupped his hands, "Thank you, Saint, for saving me this time. Consider the Primordial Violet Qi as my repayment for your life-saving grace!"

Now, Old Ancestor Hongyun had come to terms with it!

Innocence is no shield against wealth.

Without sufficient strength, yet possessing a treasure like the Primordial Violet Qi, it was likely to bring about a fatal disaster sooner or later!

Since the Primordial Violet Qi had already fallen into Tongtian Cult Master's hands, he might as well do a favor and give it to Tongtian Cult Master, thereby repaying the Saint's kindness in saving him.

Tongtian Cult Master naturally understood this. Looking at Old Ancestor Hongyun, he asked, "Fellow Daoist Hongyun, what are your plans now?"

Old Ancestor Hongyun frowned, "Saint, in my current state, I fear... I fear it will be difficult to seek revenge. I beg the Saint to allow me to recuperate on Golden Ao Island!"
