Tongtian, Nuwa, Are You Willing to Take Me as Your Master?

At this moment...

Inside Purple Sky Palace...

Along With Old Ancestor Hongjun successfully taking Zhunti and Jieyin as disciples...

The atmosphere throughout Purple Sky Palace reached unprecedented heights!

Many cultivators had personally witnessed the benefits Zhunti and Jieyin had just received from Old Ancestor Hongjun...

Thus, each and every one of them fervently hoped that good fortune would descend upon them next.

Every one of them was anxious beyond measure.

And Old Ancestor Hongjun had no intention of letting the atmosphere cool down...

He had gone to such great lengths precisely to stir up the mood...

And now that his goal had been achieved...

Naturally, he would press on while the iron was hot.

Thus, Old Ancestor Hongjun swiftly made another move.

He first gestured for Zhunti and Jieyin, who had been constantly kowtowing on the ground, to rise.

Only then did he turn his gaze toward Pangu's Three Pure Ones on the other side.

But Old Ancestor Hongjun's control over the details was more than sufficient.

He did not simply announce outright that he wished to take Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian as disciples.

Through his observations over the years, Old Ancestor Hongjun had learned...

That taking Laozi and Yuanshi as disciples would likewise be relatively easy.

But Tongtian and Nuwa posed immense difficulties.

So this time, he Did Not Intend to lump them together and accept them all at once.

He planned to use accepting Laozi and Yuanshi as disciples once again to properly display his methods, further increasing the chances of successfully taking Tongtian and Nuwa as disciples afterward.

Thus, Old Ancestor Hongjun directly spoke to Laozi and Yuanshi before him:

"Grand Pure Laozi..."

"Jade Pure Yuanshi..."

"You All two share a bond of master and disciple with me..."

"Are you willing to take me as your master?"

As Old Ancestor Hongjun's voice fell...

Yuanshi was naturally the first to agree.

He appeared incomparably excited.

After all, his guiding principle had always been "following Heaven and obeying the Dao"...

Moreover...

Though he had harbored many doubts before this...

After Old Ancestor Hongjun's earlier round of "guidance"...

The clouds of doubt in his heart had already dispersed.

Thus, at this moment, he could truly become a disciple without distraction.

"Good, good, good!"

"Another one secured!"

Naturally, Old Ancestor Hongjun was overjoyed at the sight.

He swiftly shifted his gaze to Laozi at the side.

As for Laozi, he was somewhat difficult to read.

After hearing Old Ancestor Hongjun's words, Laozi's expression remained calm and unchanged.

Though he ultimately chose to agree as well...

There was no other emotion whatsoever in his demeanor, making him truly impossible to fathom.

However, Old Ancestor Hongjun did not pay it much mind.

From his perspective...

As long as he could successfully subdue Laozi in the end, that was enough.

As long as Laozi was willing to become his disciple...

What he truly thought in his heart did not matter at all.

Thus, Old Ancestor Hongjun laughed joyfully.

"Good, good, good!"

"Since that is the case... these two strands of Hongmeng Purple Qi should belong to you!"

Old Ancestor Hongjun's voice fell.

With another flick of his finger...

Two more vividly colored, immortal-aura-wreathed strands of Hongmeng Purple Qi flew toward Yuanshi and Laozi.

Yuanshi's gaze turned incomparably fiery at the sight.

Without another word, he immediately took it.

Laozi, meanwhile, fell silent for a moment.

He said nothing.

Yet in the end, he silently accepted the Hongmeng Purple Qi as well.

"Thank you, Master!"

The two brothers both cupped their hands toward Old Ancestor Hongjun in thanks.

Upon hearing this, Old Ancestor Hongjun's smile grew even broader.

Then, with A Wave of his hand, several more Magic Artifacts Appeared.

Old Ancestor Hongjun directly bestowed these Magic Artifacts upon Laozi and Yuanshi.

Among them, the most formidable were undoubtedly the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner.

As two of the three Innate Supreme Treasures...

These two Magic Artifacts were immensely valuable!

Thus, after Old Ancestor Hongjun bestowed them upon Laozi and Yuanshi...

The atmosphere in Purple Sky Palace was once again pushed to its Peak!

Countless cultivators were endlessly envious!

After all, those were the Pangu Banner and the Taiji Diagram!

They were simply too extraordinary!

"Tch..."

"That old Daoist is certainly willing to pay a steep price..."

After seeing this, Taiyi curled his lip in displeasure and transmitted his voice to Di Jun at his side.

After all, the last creation-opening supreme treasure was in his possession, so Taiyi naturally knew how formidable the Taiji Diagram and Pangu Banner were.

Di Jun transmitted back to Taiyi, "You cannot catch a wolf without sacrificing a child..."

"Old Ancestor Hongjun's move is meant to show the living beings of the Primordial Wilderness the many benefits of joining his sect."

"Moreover, it is to increase the chances of subduing Daoist Friend Tongtian and Daoist Friend Nuwa afterward."

Taiyi immediately grew anxious upon hearing this.

"Eldest Brother, Tongtian and Nuwa won't be fooled by Old Dog Hongjun, will they?"

"How are we supposed to explain this to Third Brother when we return?"

Di Jun transmitted back, "Don't worry."

"They both received Third Brother's diary, and Third Brother already explained the stakes clearly within it."

"Unless they are both fools, I believe they will not walk down the wrong path."

Only then was Taiyi relieved.

Meanwhile, Hongjun continued observing his surroundings in secret.

After discovering that the atmosphere in Purple Sky Palace had reached its height...

He no longer had the Slightest Bit of hesitation.

He directly extended an invitation to take Nuwa and Tongtian as disciples.

"Nuwa, Tongtian..."

"You two also share a bond of master and disciple with me."

"Are you willing to take me as your master?"

Old Ancestor Hongjun looked at Nuwa and Tongtian with blazing eyes.

Indeed, in order to increase the probability of successfully taking them as disciples...

The moment he finished speaking, he immediately took out Hongmeng Purple Qi, along with many Magic Artifacts.

He continued:

"If you are willing to take me as your master..."

"These two strands of Hongmeng Purple Qi shall naturally belong to you."

"And beyond that, the Innate Red Embroidered Ball, the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, and the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram..."

"I can bestow them upon You All as well."

"For instance, the Innate Red Embroidered Ball governs karmic fate and marriage. A blow from it can Shatter mountains and rivers! Nuwa may accept it."

"As for the Four Immortal Slaying Swords and the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram, they are items left behind by Luohu in those days..."

"They are even more invincible!"

"If arranged by a Saint, it cannot be broken without four Saints!"

"This is the foremost killing formation of the Primordial Wilderness!"

"Tongtian, you are most fond of the Formation Path. If you are willing to become my disciple, the Four Immortal Slaying Swords and the Formation Diagram can all be bestowed upon you!"
