Offering a Wisp of Primordial Spirit!

struggling to break free, but Tongtian's arms were like iron, and no matter how she twisted, it was useless.

"Don't even think about it. You escaped last time, but it won't be that easy this time."

Looking at her embarrassed and angry expression, Tongtian's lips curved upwards, a hint of playfulness in his smile.

"Let me go quickly, what if someone sees us."

After several failed struggles, Nuwa could only beg in a low voice.

She was, after all, a Grand Elder of the Intercepting Sect.

If she were seen in such a situation, how could she ever show her face again?

She was so embarrassed she could die!

"What are you afraid of? I am a Saint. If anyone approaches, won't I sense it?"

"Even if they see us, so what? Who would dare to gossip?"

"So, just obediently stay with me and watch this good show."

Saying that, he not only didn't let go but hugged her even tighter.

Nuwa had no choice but to blush and tacitly agree.

Fortunately, Tongtian's gaze soon shifted towards the Purple Mansion.

Otherwise, he would have noticed the slight smile and tenderness that quietly bloomed at the corner of Nuwa's lips.

"Brother, what should we do now?" Although Taiyi was handling himself with ease within the formation, he still couldn't break the Myriad Immortals Formation and couldn't help but furrow his brows.

It was important to know that the Myriad Immortals Formation was called "Myriad Immortals" not just because of East King Duke and a few Grand Unity Golden Immortal elders, but because it was actually a grand formation set up by over ten thousand cultivators working together.

Due to the hasty battle earlier, there was no time to gather the numerous cultivators in the Purple Mansion.

Now that they were in East King Duke's territory, someone had already noticed the anomaly and rushed to provide support.

Although the cultivators' cultivation levels varied, with the lowest only at the Heavenly Immortal realm, they couldn't be underestimated due to their sheer numbers.

As waves of Purple Mansion cultivators continuously joined, the power of the Myriad Immortals Formation also kept increasing.

Sensing the increasing pressure, Dijun's expression remained unchanged.

Only the River Diagram and Luo Book, two Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures in his hands, spun even faster.

Not long after, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

He found it!

Without any hesitation, he immediately transmitted his voice to Taiyi, Kunpeng, Bai Ze, and the others.

The next moment, everyone attacked in unison, targeting the four sides, as well as the top and bottom of the formation.

Tongtian was not surprised that Dijun could find the opportunity to break the formation.

As early as the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, when Fuxi reincarnated as the Human Emperor, he relied on the River Diagram and Luo Book to deduce the Eight Trigrams of Innate Heaven, which showed that although the River Diagram and Luo Book were not sharp offensive weapons, they contained profound mysteries in defense and deduction.

Moreover, East King Duke's Myriad Immortals Formation was still in its early stages, and many parts were not yet perfected.

It was only natural that flaws were found.

If it were the Myriad Immortals Formation from the Investiture of the Gods period, which had been meticulously refined by Tongtian and possessed astonishing power, it would have been capable of rivaling a Saint!

Even ten Dijuns would not have been able to shake it in the slightest!

Boom--!

Bang!

The formation was broken.

The people from the Purple Mansion side instantly spat out a mouthful of blood, and screams of pain erupted one after another.

East King Duke and the elders' faces turned pale, their eyes filled with terror.

Hiss--!

A sound of gasping echoed through the void.

The surrounding powerful beings were all shocked by Dijun's method of breaking the formation.

Just moments ago, they had been putting themselves in his shoes and thinking:

If they were trapped in the formation, their only options would be to surrender or perish.

But Dijun actually managed to break through the formation, it's truly unbelievable!

While shocked, they also developed a deep fear of Dijun and the Demon Race's strength.

"No! Impossible!"

"How could you possibly break my Myriad Immortals Formation!"

"I don't believe it! This must be fake!!"

Regaining his senses from the shock, East King Duke, with disheveled hair, roared madly.

As the master of the formation, he knew the power of the Myriad Immortals Formation best.

He had even secretly speculated that as long as the formation was perfected, even Tongtian might not be able to defeat it.

Now that it was broken so easily, how could he accept it!

"Hmph! A frog in a well, how can you discuss the sky?" Dijun sneered, then his tone sank as he gave the order:

"Kill! Anyone who refuses to surrender shall be annihilated!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Dijun, how dare you! Aren't you afraid of punishment from the Dao Ancestor?"

East King Duke's face instantly turned pale with fear.

Unfortunately, his words were like air in Dijun's ears, having no effect.

"Kill!!!"

Divine abilities crisscrossed, illuminating heaven and earth.

The brilliant light of magical treasures shone upon all realms.

Terrifying fluctuations erupted on the Purple Mansion island.

In an instant, the earth-shattering power stirred up monstrous waves in the East Sea, stretching for hundreds of millions of miles.

Countless sea creatures were annihilated in the aftermath, Blood stained the entire sea.

Looking at the tragic scene of mountains of corpses, seas of blood, and rivers of gore, Many powerful beings couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, And immediately listed Dijun and the Demon Race as beings second only to Tongtian in taboo.

"The Demon Race is actually this powerful?"

Nuwa, leaning in Tongtian's embrace, opened her mouth slightly, her face full of shock.

Since Dijun led his forces to break the formation, it had been almost a one-sided slaughter, With not even the slightest power to resist.

How could she not be surprised?

"This is normal," Tongtian chuckled and slowly explained, "The number of experts under Dijun is several times that of East King Duke, And their resources far surpass those of the Purple Mansion.

Coupled with several Grand Unity Golden Immortals ganging up on one opponent, If they couldn't suppress them quickly, the Demon Race would have been wiped out in their conflict with the Witch Race long ago."

After all, they were a dominant race in the Primordial World.

If they couldn't even take down a mere Purple Mansion, it would be too undignified.

Just as he was thinking, a report came from outside Biyou Palace.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, someone is asking to see you outside. They say they are the West Queen Mother from West Kunlun."

"Please invite her in."

A hint of playfulness flashed in Tongtian's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curved into a knowing smile.

This West Queen Mother truly had some courage.

As soon as East King Duke fell, she rushed over in a hurry.

Clearly, she had set out from West Kunlun the moment Dijun entered the Purple Mansion.

'It seems that none of the powerful beings in the Primordial World are simple.

Tongtian sighed inwardly. Instead of feeling worried, he became somewhat interested.

Even a powerful being like the West Queen Mother, who was somewhat on the fringes of the Primordial World, had such foresight.

One could imagine how unfathomable those old foxes who survived the Witch-Demon Calamity, the Investiture of the Gods, and the Journey to the West trials must be.

He had originally thought that after becoming a Saint, there would be endless years of peace and inaction, but now it seemed there might be some fun to be had.

As the saying goes: Fighting against heaven is endlessly enjoyable; fighting against earth is endlessly enjoyable; fighting against man is endlessly enjoyable.

A life without interest, even with endless years, is merely a waste of time.

"Someone's here, hurry and put me down."

Upon hearing that the West Queen Mother was arriving, Nuwa twisted her body in a hurry, her face full of playful annoyance.

If she saw her in this state, she didn't know how much she'd mock herself in her heart.

Tongtian chuckled lightly and released his grip.

"West Queen Mother greets Saint Tongtian, and Fellow Daoist Nuwa."

The West Queen Mother entered the great hall and bowed respectfully.

"You're too kind, Fellow Daoist. Please, sit.

May I ask the important matter that brings you here today?"

Tongtian's gaze was calm as he looked at the West Queen Mother, who was wearing palace attire and possessed an extraordinary demeanor.

Although he had already guessed the purpose of her visit, he still put on a nonchalant air.

As he spoke, he casually gestured, and a cup of fragrant tea steadily landed before her.

Seeing such courtesy, and seeing the West Queen Mother's outstanding beauty, Nuwa couldn't help but pout, her face full of displeasure.

Tongtian couldn't help but chuckle at this, but he was also helpless.

As for the West Queen Mother, perhaps out of reverence for the Saint, she had kept her eyes downcast since entering and bowing, never looking directly at Tongtian, and naturally didn't notice Nuwa's little mood.

She sighed softly, her tone carrying a hint of helplessness.

"I have come uninvited, Daoist, to ask for the Saint's protection. I hope the Saint will show mercy."

"You are quite frank. Aren't you afraid I might refuse?"

Tongtian raised an eyebrow slightly, quite surprised by her candor.

In the Primordial World, unless their lives were at stake, who would lower themselves and admit weakness so openly?

This courage was indeed rare.

Of course, beings like Jieyin and Zhunti, whose faces were thicker than mountains, were not included in this discussion.

"Even if I wanted to hide it, I couldn't hide it from the Saint's dharma eye."

"Since you know you can't hide it, why not be open and honest? It might earn you the Saint's favor."

Hearing that his tone wasn't a harsh refusal, the West Queen Mother felt a little relieved.

Nuwa, who had been silent, also glanced at her with a hint of surprise.

"You should know that my Intercepting Sect is not lacking in people."

"However, since we both once listened to the Dao in the Purple Heaven Palace, we do have some connection."

"If you can accomplish one thing, I might be able to grant you the position of an elder in the Intercepting Sect."

Tongtian's tone was indifferent, his expression calm.

"Please, Saint, guide me."

The West Queen Mother's heart stirred upon hearing this, and she quickly pressed for details.

No matter what, as long as he didn't outright refuse, there was hope.

Even if the conditions were harsh, it was better than having no way out.

"It's very simple. Hand over your Western Plain Cloud Boundary Banner, and..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the great hall instantly tensed.

Both the West Queen Mother and Nuwa's expressions changed.

The Plain Cloud Boundary Banner was bestowed by the Dao Ancestor, ranked among the Innate Five Banners, and was a Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

If all five banners were gathered, their power would be close to that of an Innate Supreme Treasure.

Even if this price was barely acceptable, the demand to offer a wisp of Primordial Spirit was truly ruthless.

Once it fell into the hands of others, one's life and death would be out of their control.

Unless they were completely desperate, who would entrust their life to another?

Nuwa opened her mouth, a flicker of pity in her eyes.

But when she saw Tongtian wink at her, she immediately understood something and remained silent.

Surprisingly, as soon as he finished speaking, the West Queen Mother merely pondered for a moment before her expression became resolute. Without hesitation, she took out the Plain Cloud Boundary Banner and a wisp of her Primordial Spirit, offering them with both hands.

Her decisive attitude stunned both Tongtian and Nuwa.

Sect Master Tongtian waved his hand gently, pushing back the Primordial Spirit and the Spiritual Treasure. A smile appeared on his face, and he nodded in praise, "You are indeed decisive. Good, you have passed my test."

The West Queen Mother's face lit up with joy. She quickly bowed and said respectfully, "Thank you for your praise, Sect Master.

Before the Sect Master, even if I were to cultivate to the peak of a Quasi-Saint, I would be no different from an ant. My meager strength is merely a bit more robust."

"Therefore, whether or not I hand over my Primordial Spirit is not important to the Sect Master."

"As for the Plain Cloud Boundary Banner, this humble Daoist intended to offer it to the Sect Master before coming."

Tongtian listened and nodded slightly. He then cast a glance at Nuwa, signaling her to take the West Queen Mother to their accommodations.

Nuwa understood and led the West Queen Mother away.

As soon as the two women left, a familiar voice sounded in his mind.

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining an Elder at the early Quasi-Saint stage. Reward: One fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation.]
