The Dao Ancestor Personally Entered the Fray! Using the Heavenly Dao Origin as a Toy?
Early morning.
The first Primordial Violet Qi broke through the Sea of Clouds, like golden silk, gently scattering across the Summit of Kunlun.
Inside the brocade quilt, Lin Shen's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his small body stretched out.
"Hmm..."
He groggily opened his eyes, instinctively wanting to call out to Sister Nuwa.
However, the words caught in his throat.
An elderly man with white hair and beard sat upright beside the bed.
Those eyes, as deep as the starry sea, were now filled with tenderness, as if they could melt the ancient ice.
"Huh?"
Lin Shen tilted his little head.
This old man... he looks so familiar.
Oh, right!
It's Grandpa Hongjun from the Zixiao Palace, who sleeps while hugging me and conjures up tons of delicious food!
"Grandfather?"
Lin Shen called out in a childish voice, his voice still carrying the soft, nasal tone of someone just waking up.
That call was as sweet as honey.
Hongjun's eyes lit up instantly.
It's done!
As the representative of Heaven and the master of the Zixiao Palace, he personally descended and sat quietly by the bedside for an entire night.
All for this one "Grandpa"?
All for this reason, isn't it? So that the first person the little guy sees when he opens his eyes is him!
"Our Little Lin Shen awake!"
Hongjun reached out his hand, his palm shrouded in a faint Daoist aura, and gently rubbed Lin Shen's fluffy little head.
This gesture was incredibly gentle.
If the Three Thousand Guests in the Zixiao Palace were to see this, they would probably be so shocked that their Dao Heart would shatter on the spot.
Is this still the same Hongjun Daozu, Words Manifest Reality, who acted on behalf of Heaven, and who was high above all others?
"What are you doing here, Grandpa?"
Lin Shen rubbed his sleepy eyes, full of curiosity.
"Because Grandpa misses you."
Hongjun smiled warmly, "That's why I came to see if our little one is sleeping well."
Lin Shen blinked his big eyes.
He silently gave Grandpa Hongjun a big thumbs up in his heart.
Master never wait for you to wake up at your bedside!
Grandpa is still the best!
The growing sense of closeness in Lin Shen's heart, like a warm current, was clearly perceived by Hongjun.
His smile deepened.
"Little Lin Shen, are you hungry?"
"Hungry!"
Lin Shen nodded vigorously, her little hand touching her already somewhat flat belly.
"Then Grandpa will take you to eat something delicious."
Hongjun stood up and extended his hand to Lin Shen.
He paused slightly, then lowered his voice, a mysterious smile playing on his lips.
"We won't eat here. Grandpa will take you to a... secret hideout that only the two of us know about, okay?"
Is it a fun place?
Lin Shen's eyes lit up instantly, sparkling with anticipation.
"Yes, it's our secret base."
Hongjun winked at him.
"Wow!"
Lin Shen was so excited that she jumped out of bed and grabbed Hongjun's big hand with her small one.
"Let's go! Let's hurry!"
"Sh--"
Hongjun put a finger to his lips, gesturing for silence. "Keep your voice down, don't wake your Master."
Lin Shen immediately covered his mouth with his other small hand and nodded his little head vigorously.
Hongjun smiled.
The next moment, he took Lin Shen's hand and took a small step forward.
There was not the slightest fluctuation of magical power.
There wasn't even the slightest ripple in the space.
The figures of the grandfather and grandson simply vanished into thin air from their small bedroom in the Kunlun Mountain.
It was as if they had never existed here.
Meanwhile, at the Sanqing Daoist Palace.
The Tongtian Jiaozhu leaped up from his cloud bed, his face full of annoyance.
Oh no! I overslept!
He was so engrossed in drawing the design plans for the "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation Theme Park" last night that he completely forgot the time.
"We agreed to be the first to see this morning!"
Tongtian was so anxious that he scratched his head and cheeks.
Don't panic.
Yuanshi Tianzun slowly opened his eyes, his face radiating confidence. "I have already set up the Jade Purity Sensing Immortal Array outside Lin Shen's room. We will know as soon as his eyelashes flutter."
"Second Brother is so thoughtful!"
Tongtian let out a long sigh of relief.
"Walk!"
The three brothers quickly tidied themselves up and each took out their carefully prepared "magic weapons" for vying for favor.
In Taiqing Laozi's hand is the newly baked "Super Divine Ability Candy Bean 5.0 Enhanced Edition".
Inside the sleeve of the Yuanshi Tianzun is a "Immersive Interactive Movie Experience Jade Talisman."
In the arms of the Tongtian Jiaozhu was a miniature model of the "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation Roller Coaster," devoid of any murderous intent and exuding a cool and fun vibe.
The three men, full of bravado and high spirits, headed straight for Lin Shen's bedroom.
Today, we must turn the tide decisively!
We must let our teacher, who is far away in the Zixiao Palace, know who our disciple is closest to!
"My Beloved Disciple, your Master are here!"
With Tongtian ambition, he kicked open the door and shouted at the top of his lungs.
Then--
He was stunned.
Yuanshi was stunned.
Taiqing was also stunned.
The room was empty.
Only a neatly folded small blanket remained, still carrying a faint scent of milk.
Lin Shen has disappeared!
Where are they?!
Tongtian rushed in, his divine sense sweeping through every corner of the room.
"Not here! Not anywhere!"
"How is this possible!"
Yuanshi's expression changed drastically. He immediately began to form hand seals, sensing the immortal array that Yuanshi had set up.
The formation is intact!
There wasn't a single trace of it being touched!
This only proves one thing --
The person who took Lin Shen had reached a level of cultivation where they could completely ignore his Sage formation and took him away without anyone noticing!
It is possible to do this...
In the entire Primordial World, besides themselves, only that one remained—
"Hongjun!"
The Three Pure Ones masters spoke in unison, practically squeezing the name out from between their teeth.
"You old scoundrel!"
Tongtian was so angry that he trembled all over. The Qingping Sword on his back sensed its master's anger and buzzed. Its sharp sword energy cut fine cracks into the surrounding space.
"They actually kidnapped our precious apprentice while we were sleeping!"
"Utterly shameless!"
Yuanshi's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
He felt that his Sage dignity and intelligence had been trampled and insulted like never before.
What flawless Yuqing Purity Immortal Array?
It's a joke compared to the "Dimensional Strike" of an existence like the Dao Ancestor!
"Brother, what do we do now?"
Tongtian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Taiqing remained silent for a moment, his fingers flying across the paper as he calculated, only to find the secrets of heaven in complete Chaos, and he could not deduce anything.
He withdrew his hand and exhaled a long breath.
"Hongjun wouldn't harm Lin Shen; he just wanted to..."
Taiqing didn't say what came next, but both brothers understood.
He just wanted to steal the apprentice!
"So we're just going to wait like this?"
Tongtian's face was filled with resentment.
"Wait my ass!"
Yuanshi let out a cold snort, a resolute ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.
"If Hongjun has Zhang Liang's plan, then I'll find a way to get over it!"
His gaze swept over his two brothers, his voice resolute.
"From now on, split up and act!"
"Big brother, you're in charge of logistics! Bring out all the top-grade spiritual roots, immortal fruits, Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir, Nectar and Jade Liquid from your Eight Sceneries Palace!"
"Third brother, forget about that broken roller coaster. Just use the Four Swords of Zhu Xian to create a real 'Sword Qi Light and Shadow Maze' for your disciple! It has to be fun, not murderous!"
"And I will go and completely complete that 'Pangu's Creation of the World Holographic Simulator'!"
Yuanshi's voice carried a do-or-die spirit.
"Before Lin Shen returns, we must transform this Kunlun Mountain into a supreme paradise that he will never want to leave once he arrives!"
"I refuse to believe that the three of us brothers working together can't defeat an old man like him!"
The Battle Intent was ignited at this moment.
A massive infrastructure boom in the Kunlun Mountain, triggered by the disappearance of Cute Baby, has begun.
And at this moment.
Lin Shen was taken by Hongjun to a dreamlike place.
Here, there is an endless Sea of Clouds.
The clouds beneath my feet felt soft and smooth to the touch, and even emitted a sweet fragrance.
There were no sun, moon, or stars in the sky.
Only a series of magnificent divine rainbows stretched across the sky, which were the purest and most extreme manifestations of the Great Dao!
The aura permeating the air was billions of times purer than the innate spiritual energy of Kunlun Mountain. With each breath, Lin Shen felt as if he were about to float away.
"Grandpa, this place is so beautiful!"
Lin Shen looked around curiously, his big eyes filled with surprise.
"This is the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao Origin."
Hongjun explained with a smile, "It's also Grandpa's house."
Wow! Grandpa's house is so big!
Lin Shen exclaimed in genuine admiration.
"Do you like it? Grandpa will bring you here to play every day from now on."
Hongjun's eyes were filled with unyielding doting affection.
"Yay!"
Just then, Lin Shen's gaze was drawn to a peculiar cloud not far away.
That cloud, shimmering with dazzling nine-colored light, was constantly changing shape.
Sometimes it transforms into a blooming lotus flower.
Sometimes it transforms into a warm and smooth Jade Ruyi.
Sometimes it coalesces into an ancient and precious mirror.
A profound and mysterious Daoist aura, as if it were the very beginning of creation, naturally emanated from the clouds.
Lin Shen stared at the cloud, his eyes sparkling.
"Grandpa, Yunyun is so much fun!"
Hongjun looked in the direction he was pointing, his eyes narrowing slightly.
That's... a fragment of the Heavenly Dao Origin?
How did it manifest and take shape here?
Wrong.
Hongjun was shocked and instantly understood.
It doesn't manifest itself on its own initiative.
Rather... it was because Lin Shen was here that it was attracted and appeared from nothingness!
Has this little guy's luck become so strong that even the Heavenly Dao Origin is drawn to him?
Hongjun remained expressionless, his face still bearing that kind and amiable demeanor, and said with a smile:
"Little Lin Shen likes it? Then Grandpa will pick it and give it to you as a toy."
"Really?!"
Lin Shen's eyes widened in surprise.
"Certainly."
Hongjun stretched out his hand and gently beckoned to the nine- Caiyun.
That fragment of origin, containing supreme mysteries, was as docile as a kitten, gently landing in his palm.
Hongjun handed it to Lin Shen.
Lin Shen stretched out his two small hands, as if holding a rare treasure, and took the cloud.
It's soft and cool to the touch, even more fun than that!
He loved it so much that he pinched and kneaded the cloud with his little hands, trying to shape it into a little rabbit.
Sudden--
"Thud."
A crisp, light sound.
It was as if something had fallen from the auspicious nine-colored clouds and landed on the ground of the Sea of Clouds.
Hongjun looked down.
It was a palm-sized fragment, neither stone nor gold, entirely black, with countless mysterious runes engraved on its surface...
The moment I saw that fragment.
Hongjun's Sage Dao Heart, which was in harmony with the Heavenly Dao, indestructible through countless eons, and devoid of sorrow or joy, was now uncontrollably stirred at this moment—
It jumped wildly!
The Jade Plate of Creation!
It's a lost... Fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation!
