"Fine!"

Tongtian Cult Master nodded, waved his large sleeve, and collected the soul of Old Ancestor Hongyun.

"Tongtian, come out! Hand over the Primordial Violet Qi!"

Just then, a thunderous roar echoed.

Tongtian Cult Master raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice, "Hmph, this humble Taoist knew that some ignorant fools would come to Golden Ao Island to cause trouble!"

As he spoke, Tongtian Cult Master rose, took a step, and appeared outside Golden Ao Island.

At this moment, Primordial Heavenly Venerate was suspended in mid-air, glaring at Tongtian Cult Master, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Tongtian, hand over the Primordial Violet Qi!"

Previously, Primordial Heavenly Venerate had been in a state of divine wandering, and moreover, Jieyin and Zhunti had obscured the Heavenly Secrets, so Primordial Heavenly Venerate was unaware of the demon race's attack on Old Ancestor Hongyun.

After the incident, Guangchengzi and others reported to Primordial Heavenly Venerate, and only then did Primordial Heavenly Venerate learn of it.

When Primordial Heavenly Venerate learned that Tongtian Cult Master had rescued Old Ancestor Hongyun and seized the Primordial Violet Qi, he immediately became restless.

The doctrines and philosophies of the Intercepting Sect and the Heavenly Origin Sect were completely opposite. The Intercepting Sect advocated for teaching without discrimination, while the Heavenly Origin Sect advocated for elites. Therefore, a battle between the Intercepting Sect and the Heavenly Origin Sect was inevitable in the future.

This one Tongtian Cult Master was already enough of a headache for the Heavenly Origin Sect!

Now, with Tongtian Cult Master snatching the Primordial Violet Qi, if the Intercepting Sect were to gain another Saint, wouldn't that be too much?

Therefore, Primordial Heavenly Venerate could not sit still. He disregarded the other Saints and rushed to Golden Ao Island in a hurry...

Chapter 32: Battle of Saints, Tongtian vs. Primordial

Tongtian Cult Master looked at Primordial Heavenly Venerate with a playful expression, curling his lips, "Second Senior Brother, have you lost your mind? That Primordial Violet Qi was gifted to this humble Taoist by fellow Daoist Hongyun. What business is it of yours? Why are you running over here and making a fuss?"

Primordial Heavenly Venerate's old face twitched violently with anger. He gritted his teeth as he looked at Tongtian Cult Master and said in a deep voice, "Tongtian, the Primordial Violet Qi is of great importance. It cannot simply be given away. You should hand over the Primordial Violet Qi, and we can discuss how to deal with him!"

On Golden Ao Island, the Immortals of the Intercepting Sect gasped in amazement.

It seemed that Tongtian Cult Master had obtained the Primordial Violet Qi from Old Ancestor Hongyun. How could they not be excited?

Especially Duobao Daoist, whose eyes shone with divine light upon hearing this.

After all, he was the chief disciple of the Intercepting Sect. If Tongtian were to bestow the Primordial Violet Qi, he would undoubtedly be the best and most suitable candidate!

"After so many years of forbearance, is it finally time for a reward?"

Duobao Daoist suppressed the excitement in his heart, clenching his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, completely unaware of it.

On the other side, Tongtian Cult Master looked at Primordial Heavenly Venerate with disdain, curling his lips, "Second Senior Brother, do you take this humble Taoist for a fool, or are you the fool? To say such a thing? If you want the Primordial Violet Qi, fine! You'll have to go through my Immortal Slaying Sword Formation!"

As he spoke, Tongtian Cult Master flicked his wrist and threw.

The Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram flew out, directly covering half the sky. Sword Qi soared into the heavens, and the mere sword intent shattered ancient stars in the void.

Immediately after, four immortal swords flew out, each hanging at the four corners of the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram: southeast, northwest.

The four immortal swords vibrated incessantly, generating countless Immortal Slaying sword qi!

In an instant, the entire area beneath the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram was filled with dense Immortal Slaying sword qi, making one's scalp tingle.

On Golden Ao Island, Li Xiao secretly grimaced as he watched.

Teacher really has a temper, setting up the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation at the slightest disagreement. The Intercepting Sect doesn't have a treasure to suppress its destiny. Although the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation can suppress destiny, using it once reduces the destiny. This can't go on...

Just then, Yunxiao, who was beside him, heard Li Xiao's thoughts.

Yunxiao raised an eyebrow, glanced back at Li Xiao, and then looked away.

Li Xiao, not knowing why Yunxiao was looking at him, stuck out his tongue at her.

Yunxiao was taken aback, her delicate face flushed slightly, and she quickly looked up at the sky.

In mid-air, Tongtian Cult Master stepped into the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, holding the Qingping Sword, and glared at Primordial Heavenly Venerate, saying in a deep voice, "Second Senior Brother, since you want the Primordial Violet Qi, do you have the courage to enter my Immortal Slaying Sword Formation?"

Tongtian Cult Master was clearly trying to make an example of him, believing that a single strong blow could fend off a hundred.

Things had come to this point. If Primordial Heavenly Venerate did not enter the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, how could he save face?

"Hmph, Tongtian, don't be so arrogant. You rely on the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation and think you are invincible in the world. Today, I will tear down your facade!"

Primordial Heavenly Venerate snorted coldly and stepped into the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

However, the feeling outside the sword formation and inside it was completely different.

Looking at the dense Immortal Slaying sword qi hanging above his head, the corners of Primordial Heavenly Venerate's eyes twitched fiercely, and he already regretted entering the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

But under the current circumstances, how could he retreat?

Primordial Heavenly Venerate quickly tapped his forehead, and the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Cloud appeared behind his head. Within it, a Primordial world flickered, while outside, golden pearls, golden lamps, golden lotuses, and tassels hung down like dripping eaves, continuously emitting profound light to protect Primordial Heavenly Venerate's body.

Originally, this Myriad Heavens Auspicious Cloud was a treasure of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun!

However, Primordial Heavenly Venerate felt that his offense was sufficient but his defense was lacking. He followed the example of Jieyin and Zhunti, went to Zixiao Palace to complain, and forcefully obtained the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Cloud from the Dao Ancestor.

"Good, good, Primordial. Since you want to taste the power of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, this humble Taoist will fulfill your wish!"

Tongtian Cult Master snorted coldly, and the Qingping Sword in his hand pointed at Primordial Heavenly Venerate.

The next moment, countless terrifying Immortal Slaying sword qi surged towards Primordial Heavenly Venerate like a swarm of locusts.

"Zheng zheng zheng..."

Sword energy surged wildly, accompanied by countless terrifying sword cries, making one's scalp tingle.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate's pupils contracted sharply as he saw this. He let out a great roar and frantically urged the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Cloud.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Terrifying Immortal Slaying Sword energy fiercely struck the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Cloud, causing it to tremble violently. Countless golden lamps, golden lotuses, golden pearls, and necklaces were sliced off.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate was secretly alarmed. Enduring the immense pressure, he flipped his hand, revealing a small banner – the Pangu Banner.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate wielded the Pangu Banner and shook it vigorously.

Swish, swish, swish...

Innumerable streams of chaotic sword energy roared and surged out, rushing towards the Immortal Slaying Sword energy.

Even though the chaotic sword energy from the Pangu Banner could offset the Immortal Slaying Sword energy, the sheer quantity of the latter was overwhelming. Primordial Heavenly Venerate's arm grew numb from shaking it, yet it was but a drop in the bucket, utterly useless.

Boom, boom, boom...

The Immortal Slaying Sword energy continuously struck the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Cloud, making it sway precariously.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate knew he couldn't hold on much longer. He quickly leaped out, escaping the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

Tongtian Cult Master did not pursue. Instead, he held the Qingping Sword, looked at Primordial Heavenly Venerate, and laughed heartily, "Second Senior Brother, how do you like my Immortal Slaying Sword Formation? Hahaha..."

"Hmph, Tongtian, you..."

Primordial Heavenly Venerate's face turned ashen with anger. He turned and glared fiercely at Tongtian Cult Master before turning and vanishing into the void, returning to Mount Kunlun.

Tongtian Cult Master let out a cold laugh, his eyes like torches as he swept across the void.

With Primordial Heavenly Venerate driven away, the Saints of the Heavens would not descend!

Had he failed this time, the Saints of the Heavens would have immediately descended to seize the Primordial Violet Qi.

Tongtian Cult Master waved his large sleeve, retracted the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, and then took a step forward, returning to Golden Ao Island.

The Teacher obtained the Primordial Violet Qi, which means that Red Cloud fellow is dead. It's just that Red Cloud died with his eyes wide open. On the surface, it was indeed the Demon Clan that killed him, but in reality, it was the Two Saints of the West who deliberately concealed the Heavenly Secrets to resolve the karma of yielding the position, preventing Great Immortal Zhenyuanzi from rescuing him, thus leading to the fall of Old Ancestor Hongyun. Tragic, tragic...

Just then, Yunxiao once again heard Li Xiao's inner thoughts.

Yunxiao turned and looked at Li Xiao with a bewildered expression again.

Seeing Yunxiao looking at him again, Li Xiao was also taken aback. He then grinned again, revealing a mouthful of large white teeth.

Then, Yunxiao heard Li Xiao's inner thoughts again.

Why does Sister Yunxiao keep looking at me? Is it because I'm handsome? Has she fallen for Sister Yunxiao? Should I take the opportunity to push Sister Yunxiao down? Tsk tsk tsk, Sister Yunxiao's figure, her face, just thinking about it is exciting...

Chapter 33: I Really Don't Want the Primordial Violet Qi

Yunxiao's pretty face flushed as she heard this. She couldn't help but widen her almond-shaped eyes and glare fiercely at Li Xiao.

Uh? Glaring at me? What does that mean? Is she playing with me? That expression, that little look, it's truly captivating...

Yunxiao was mesmerized by the words. Rolling her eyes wildly, she couldn't be bothered to deal with Li Xiao.

On the other side, the Immortals of the Intercepting Sect were all looking intently at Tongtian Cult Master, especially his personal disciples: Duobao Daoist, Golden Spirit Holy Mother, Wudang Holy Mother, and Turtle Spirit Holy Mother.

They all hoped that Tongtian Cult Master would bestow the Primordial Violet Qi upon them!

However, undoubtedly, Duobao Daoist had the highest chance.

Only Li Xiao looked indifferent, with a rogueish demeanor.

Tongtian Cult Master looked at everyone and said calmly, "You all know that I have obtained the Primordial Violet Qi. Now, I will bestow it upon one of you!"

Duobao Daoist's eyes immediately lit up, and he was just short of stepping forward to express his gratitude.

At that moment, Tongtian Cult Master looked at Li Xiao and said with a smile, "My disciple Li Xiao, I shall bestow this Primordial Violet Qi upon you. I hope you will cultivate diligently in the future and strive to achieve the Primordial Unity Dao as soon as possible!"

Everyone present was stunned!

The smile on Duobao Daoist's face froze. He looked at Tongtian Cult Master in disbelief, wondering why he would bestow the Primordial Violet Qi upon Li Xiao, a disciple whose cultivation was only at the True Immortal realm.

He was the eldest disciple of the Intercepting Sect, and he had even severed one of his corpses, becoming a quasi-Saint!

He routinely led the Intercepting Sect and had made great contributions to it!

Shouldn't Tongtian Cult Master have bestowed the Primordial Violet Qi upon him? Why would he give it to Li Xiao?

If Tongtian Cult Master had given the Primordial Violet Qi to Golden Spirit Holy Mother, Wudang Holy Mother, or Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, Duobao Daoist wouldn't have been so angry. But Tongtian Cult Master specifically gave it to Li Xiao.

This made Duobao Daoist feel extremely unbalanced!

Swish, swish, swish...

In an instant, the gazes of the Intercepting Sect's Immortals turned uniformly towards Li Xiao, filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

As everyone knew, the Primordial Violet Qi was the foundation for becoming a Saint. With the Primordial Violet Qi, Li Xiao could potentially become a Saint in the future. How could they not be envious, jealous, and hateful?

Perhaps only Yunxiao at the scene understood Tongtian Cult Master's intentions!
