Friendly exchange in front of Zixiao Palace

Feeling the pure, origin-sourced Innate Five Elements Dao Charm of his Spiritual Power, enlightenment surged in his mind.

"My true form is the Five Needles Pine of Innate Origin! This Spiritual Power is rooted in my life's origin, it's the 'Innate Five Elements Divine Light' that was born with me! In terms of sheer power, it might even surpass Kong Xuan's later-refined Five-Colored Divine Light!"

Kong Xuan was the first peacock in the world. His tail feathers contained Innate Five Elements Qi, which he refined into a great divine ability that could brush away anything.

He then looked at the accompanying Spiritual Treasure coiled within his dantian.

"Huh, what is this... a folding fan?"

Within his dantian, a folding fan coiled, emanating a divine aura of blue, yellow, red, white, and black.

With a thought from Chen Song, the folding fan materialized in his hand.

"Huh, Senior Disciple Nephew, what Spiritual Treasure is that? Judging by the divine charm it emits, it seems to be a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure?" Tongtian exclaimed upon seeing the folding fan in Chen Song's hand.

After Chen Song sent his divine sense into the folding fan, he understood. This accompanying Spiritual Treasure of his was precisely a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—the Five Elements Illusory Spirit Fan.

"Yes, Third Martial Uncle, this treasure is indeed my accompanying Spiritual Treasure, named the Five Elements Illusory Spirit Fan, and it is a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure."

"As expected of the Supreme Pure Spirit Treasure Heavenly Venerate, what sharp eyes!" Chen Song thought to himself.

Laozi and Yuanshi also examined it, their faces showing expressions of approval.

"Alright, you must keep this treasure safe from now on, lest it be stolen. Put it away now, we are about to enter the Outer Heavens," Laozi said calmly.

"Oh, alright, Master!"

With a wave of Laozi's hand, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda flew out, enveloping the three of them as they flew towards the chaotic Outer Heavens.

Thus, they flew for four hundred years in the chaotic Outer Heavens, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda covering the four of them as they arrived outside the Purple Heaven Palace.

Wow, so this is the Purple Firmament Palace!

Big! It's truly big!

Vast and boundless! Chen Song had thought these words were only used to describe grasslands, never expecting to use them to describe a plaza one day.

An incomparably majestic grand hall stood alone on the plaza.

Inscribed above: Purple Heaven Palace.

This was not the first time the Three Pure Ones had been here. They led Chen Song, familiar with the way, to a spot and began to meditate.

Along the way, Laozi had already imparted the complete Taiqing Immortal Method to Chen Song, allowing him to stabilize his cultivation at the mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.

Creeeak~

A clear bird cry echoed, and two balls of fire streaked across the sky towards the plaza. Within the balls of fire were two fiery Golden Crows.

The flames landed, transforming into two young men.

Among the two young men, the elder one scanned the plaza, glanced in the direction of the Three Pure Ones, let out a cold snort internally, and immediately turned his head away, no longer looking at them.

The other, holding a simple bronze ancient bell, cast a provocative glance in the direction of the Three Pure Ones before following the elder youth to another side.

"Hmph! Those who are born from wetness or eggs, with fur and horns, are truly impolite!" Yuanshi snorted coldly.

Well, no need to guess, just by looking at the golden robes on those two, Chen Song knew they were the arrogant duo from the Sun Star, Di Jun and his little darling wife, Taiyi.

Not to mention the iconic Golden Crow appearance and what Second Martial Uncle called "those born from wetness or eggs, with fur and horns."

"Pay them no mind," Laozi's voice, devoid of emotion, came.

"Tch, those two scruffy birds act like the heavens and earth are beneath them. Who are they putting on such a show for?"

"Exactly, exactly. It's like everyone owes them a few treasures."

"I'll definitely rip off one of their three legs sooner or later, they're so ugly!"

"Tear off their wings!"

A clamor of noise approached from afar. Chen Song opened his eyes and saw them arriving, each with a different expression, ferocious countenances, and boundless killing intent swirling around them.

"Fellow Daoists of the Witch Race, it would be best not to make such a commotion, lest the Dao Ancestor punish you," Laozi advised.

Di Jun and Taiyi in the distance naturally heard the voices of the Witch Race.

"These barbarians, they infuriate me! Second brother, why are you holding me back? I want to show them how powerful I am!" Di Jun's eyes blazed with fire. If Taiyi hadn't restrained him, the two groups might have already started fighting.

"Big brother, calm down, don't forget last time!" Taiyi said, restraining Di Jun and trying to persuade him.

On the Witch Race's side, upon hearing Laozi's warning, they also remembered their first time coming to the Purple Heaven Palace to listen to the sermon.

During the first sermon in the Purple Firmament Palace, Di Jun and Taiyi considered themselves innate Three-legged Golden Crows, the lords of the Great Wilderness.

The Witch Race, on the other hand, believed they were the true descendants of Pangu and should rule the Great Wilderness in place of their father god.

Thus, the two sides had fought.

In the end, it was the Dao Ancestor who intervened, punishing both sides before they ceased.

If they angered the Dao Ancestor again this time and couldn't listen to the sermon, it would be dire.

Although the Witch Race primarily cultivated their physical bodies and lacked Primordial Spirits, making them unable to comprehend the Dao spoken by the Dao Ancestor, Houtu had mentioned before their first time listening to the sermon.

She had a feeling that listening to the Dao Ancestor's sermon held her opportunity.

Therefore, both sides chose to endure.

Chen Song thought of something amusing. He leaned close to Tongtian's ear and whispered, gesturing with his hands as he spoke.

Afterward, Tongtian stood up and walked towards the Witch Race. "Fellow Daoists of the Witch Race, you..."

Meanwhile, Di Jun and Taiyi.

"Taiyi, what do these barbarians' gestures mean? When did their Witch Race learn to use hand seals?" Di Jun asked, frowning.

"Big Brother, I don't think so. I don't know why, but seeing these gestures makes me inexplicably angry. I feel like they're insulting us," Taiyi said, his voice laced with gritted teeth.

The twelve Ancestral Witches of the Witch Race all gave Di Jun and Taiyi the middle finger.

Talk about international friendship! My friends!

"No, Brother, we have to retaliate too!" Taiyi said indignantly.

"How do we retaliate?"

"We'll make the same hand gesture at them!"

And so, a scene unfolded on the Purple Heaven Palace plaza:

Di Jun and Taiyi (︶^︶)=凸 × 4 VS Twelve Ancestral Witches (︶^︶)=凸 × 12

"Hey, hey, hey, good morning, three Fellow Daoists!" a hearty laugh rang out.

"Fellow Daoist Hongyun!" × 3

The one who arrived was none other than Hongyun, accompanied by his good friend Zhenyuanzi.

"May I ask who this Fellow Daoist is?" Hongyun asked, seeing Chen Song beside the Three Pure Ones.

"This is my eldest disciple, Chen Song," Yuanshi introduced Hongyun. He and Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi had a fairly good relationship.

"Come, Senior Disciple Nephew, quickly greet Fellow Daoist Hongyun and Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi."

"Greetings, Martial Uncle Hongyun, Martial Uncle Zhenyuanzi."

"Oh~ So you're a Martial Nephew. Come, come, come, your Martial Uncle doesn't have much, but I'll treat you to some Ginseng Fruit," Hongyun said with a chuckle, taking out over ten Ginseng Fruits and handing them to Chen Song.

What the... This guy's a real big spender, Chen Song thought, quickly accepting them.

"Thank you, Martial Uncle Hongyun."

"Don't be so formal. After you finish, come to Wuzhuang Temple, and I'll treat you again," Hongyun said with a smile.

Zhenyuanzi: Fine, fine, fine, you treat, and I'll pay, right?

Whatever, whatever, you bunch of birds, the Ginseng Fruits are plentiful in my storeroom anyway.

Time flowed by, and great beings continuously broke through the chaos and arrived at the Purple Heaven Palace. On the plaza in front...

"The time is right, everyone, please enter!"

The gates of the Purple Palace opened, and two young attendants emerged, announcing to all the cultivators.

The cultivators entered the Purple霄 Palace in an orderly fashion.
