Hongjun: It's So Hard Being a Heavenly Dao Ancestor!

"Greetings, Dao Ancestor!"

Tongtian casually tossed the human-shaped Yuanshi onto the ground. Then, supporting the bruised and swollen Taiqing, he bowed and paid his respects to Hongjun.

"Gree...ting... Dao... Ances...tor..."

Taiqing's face was swollen so high that his lips were barely a slit, emitting a string of garbled syllables that sounded vaguely like "Greetings, Dao Ancestor."

"Waaah... waaah... waaah..."

Yuanshi lay there like a puddle of mud, unable to tell if he was whimpering or speaking.

Hongjun looked at the miserable state of the two, especially Yuanshi, who was bound like a dead dog, and his lips twitched involuntarily.

He sighed softly and slowly said, "The cause and effect of this matter is concluded. Qin Xuan will no longer seek trouble with you over this, and you must not provoke him again in the future."

Tongtian was puzzled, but he couldn't help but ask, "Dao Ancestor, what is Qin Xuan's cultivation level exactly? Why is Yuanshi's cultivation as a Quasi-Sage like a toy in his hands, without the slightest power to resist?"

The scenes outside Zixiao Palace were too shocking, completely subverting his understanding of power.

Hongjun's gaze was distant as it landed on Tongtian, and he slowly said, "Qin Xuan is transformed from Pangu's essence blood, and he carries innate laws within him. He walks the path of the Primordial Golden Immortal."

He paused slightly, his tone becoming serious, "However, now that the Great Dao has retreated, the path of proving the Dao through laws is no longer easy. In the future, his cultivation progress will likely be extremely slow."

Hearing this, Tongtian was even more puzzled, and he was about to ask again.

But he saw Hongjun wave his sleeve and said indifferently, "Go. And wait patiently for the third lecture."

Before the words were finished, the three only felt a blur before their eyes and were already sent out of Zixiao Palace.

Tongtian had no choice but to temporarily suppress the many doubts in his heart, picking up Yuanshi, supporting Taiqing, and heading straight towards Kunlun Mountain.

Along the way, his mind was a chaotic mess.

Whether it was Qin Xuan's unbelievable strength or the Dao Ancestor's ambiguous words, he couldn't understand any of it.

Gradually, a thought took root in Tongtian's heart, lingering and unshakeable:

"Can my sword prove the Dao?"

Inside Zixiao Palace.

Hongjun sat upright before the chessboard, beginning to lay out the next grand scheme for the Primordial Chaos.

Buzhou Mountain must fall!

Without the protection of Pangu's will, both Qin Xuan's group of Ancestral Witches and the Three Pure Ones would be easier to manipulate and control.

Wait! The Cosmos Cauldron!

The expression on Hongjun's face instantly froze.

He suddenly remembered that after Buzhou Mountain collapsed, the pillar of heaven would collapse, and he would need to refine a heaven-mending stone to repair the sky.

And the magical treasure for refining the heaven-mending stone, the Cosmos Cauldron...

Was swindled away by Qin Xuan...

Also, he originally intended to give Taiqing the Taiji Diagram to suppress the sect's fortune after accepting him as a disciple.

It was also swindled away by Qin Xuan...

What would he give Taiqing in the future?!

Not only that, but because of Qin Xuan, Zhurong exposed the drawbacks of the Three Corpses Severing method.

In order to smooth things over, a corner of his primordial spirit was taken over by the Heavenly Dao.

Also, the Witch Clan was gone...

The Witch-Demon Tribulation was completely ruined.

In order to start another tribulation, he had no choice but to support Duke Dong and the Queen Mother of the West.

For this, he had invested a full ten innate spiritual treasures!

And looking at the current situation, Duke Dong and the Queen Mother of the West were simply unable to compete with the Demon Clan in the short term.

He would have to continue investing resources, continue to help, and even personally plan for them...

For a time.

Hongjun's head was buzzing.

He was completely numb.

It seemed that since Qin Xuan had appeared, everything had changed!!

The next moment.

Hongjun felt a surge of qi and blood, a hint of fishy sweetness rising in his throat.

He suppressed the roiling sensation, staring blankly into the void, a sense of weariness in his heart, and murmured:

"This Dao Ancestor... it's so hard to be!!"

Buzhou Mountain.

Pangu Temple.

Zhurong's arm had regrown.

At this moment, he was comfortably lying on the rocking chair specially made by Qin Xuan, legs crossed, playing with the Jade Ruyi he had snatched back in his left hand, and supporting the Cosmos Cauldron with his right.

The Ancestral Witches surrounded him, showing concern, asking how he felt and if he felt uncomfortable anywhere.

For a time, Zhurong was full of vigor, with a smug look on his face, the corners of his mouth raised high.

As usual, Xuan Ming would have punched his face black and blue for his frivolous appearance.

Surprisingly, Xuan Ming only glared at him this time, but did not make a move.

As for Hou Tu, since returning from Zixiao Palace, she seemed to have changed a lot.

She was always quietly lost in thought, and the gentle and watery temperament she originally possessed seemed to have a hint of imperceptible sharpness.

Qin Xuan walked to Hou Tu's side and said softly:

"Hou Tu, it's all over, don't think too much about it."

Hou Tu shook her head gently, looking at Qin Xuan with a hint of complexity in her eyes, and said:

"It's okay, Xuan-di, I'm fine. It's just... I want to cultivate."

She didn't say anything more, and went straight to the middle of the Three Lights Divine Water pool and the Chaos Spirit Liquid pool, and sat down cross-legged.

This time, being captured by Yuanshi and used as a tool to threaten her brothers, and Zhurong even risking his life to save her.

That feeling of powerlessness and guilt, like a boulder pressing on her heart, made it hard for her to breathe.

She no longer wanted to be just the little sister who was carefully cared for by her brothers.

She wanted to cultivate.

She wanted to become stronger!

She wanted to repair her Primordial Spirit!

Hou Tu began to slowly guide the Three Lights Divine Water and Chaos Spirit Liquid, surging towards her Primordial Spirit imprint.

Seeing this, Qin Xuan didn't say much.

He knew that this incident had been a great blow to Hou Tu.

He also looked at Zhurong's slightly annoying smug look, smiled faintly, his heart full of warmth.

He had already learned from the other brothers that when Yuanshi forced him to die, Zhurong was even willing to die in his place.

This brother is worth it!

As for the Cosmos Cauldron, Qin Xuan also understood in his heart that Hongjun's initiative to send it was probably not well-intentioned.

Moreover, how could such a heaven-defying creation of transforming acquired to innate not come at a price?

So he simply threw it to Zhurong and let him play with it.

Looking at the Cosmos Cauldron, Qin Xuan couldn't help but think of the major event in the Witch-Demon Tribulation that was devastating to the Witch Clan.

In the original plot, Gonggong, under the influence of the tribulation, angrily rammed into Buzhou Mountain.

Buzhou Mountain collapsed, the sky tilted to the northwest, the earth sank to the southeast, and countless living beings died as a result.

The infinite karma eroded the Merits of Creation of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, coupled with the complete dissipation of Pangu's will.

In the end, eleven Ancestral Witches died in battle, and the Witch Clan was almost wiped out.

Precautions must be taken in advance!

He turned his gaze to the Taiji Diagram in his hand.

After Pangu created the heavens, the Creation Divine Axe split into three.

The axe blade transformed into the Pangu Banner, unparalleled in attack, capable of tearing apart the Primordial Chaos and re-evolving earth, water, wind, and fire.

The axe handle transformed into the Chaos Bell, which could imprison time and suppress space.

And this Taiji Diagram was transformed from the back of the axe, using the Yin and Yang energies to stabilize earth, fire, water, and wind, unparalleled in defense, capable of resolving all attacks.

Qin Xuan immediately had an idea.

Could he use this Taiji Diagram as a foundation to protect Buzhou Mountain?

The karma of knocking down the Heavenly Pillar was something even Hongjun couldn't bear.

He could only complete his calculations through the hands of others.

When the time came, no matter who it was.

Even if that person was stubborn, could they really smash the Taiji Diagram, which was transformed from the Pangu Axe, with their head?

Once this thought arose, it could no longer be suppressed.

Qin Xuan slowly fell into thought...

How to use the Taiji Diagram to protect Buzhou Mountain?
