Luo Hou Forced to Self-Destruct, Hongjun Becomes a Saint and Plans to Preach!

"Great Dao above, I, Luo Hou, hereby swear: from this day forth, as the Dao wanes, the demonic path shall rise; as the Dao rises, the demonic path shall wane. The Dao and the demonic path shall never coexist—we shall fight until one side dies!"

A heaven-shaking BOOM rang out!

Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had self-destructed!

No sooner said than done!

The Hongjun Holy Seal stood before him, while the Taiji Diagram wrapped around his body!

Only then did Hongjun barely manage to steady himself!

Looking out, he saw that the entire Western Continent had been utterly razed to the ground. For hundreds of millions of li in every direction, not a blade of grass remained!

Standing in midair, Hongjun cupped his hands in salute. "Infinite Heavenly Lord—better a fellow Daoist die than this poor Daoist!"

Then he put away the Four Swords of Zhuxian, cast an indifferent glance over the battlefield, and vanished!

Fifty thousand years later, one day!

Purple qi came from the east for thirty thousand li, and an ancient ballad echoed between heaven and earth: "Reclining high upon the Ninth Heaven's clouds, / A reed mat reveals the Dao's true form. / Beyond Heaven and Earth, dark and yellow, / I shall hold the honored seat of teaching. / Pangu birthed the Taiji, / The Two Principles and Four Images followed their course. / One teaching passed to three friends, / Two schools split into Explanation and Interception. / Leader of all excellence in the Mystic Gate, / One breath transformed into Hongjun."

"I, Hongjun, have now become a Saint. Ten thousand years from now, I shall open an altar in the Purple Cloud Palace and preach the Dao. All those with affinity may come and listen!"

For a time, heavenly flowers rained down, while golden lotuses sprang from the earth!

Across the entire Primordial Wilderness, a sacred rain of merit began to fall. In that moment, countless more living beings took form!

At the same time, on Three Immortals Island!

Taichu sat high within Taichu Palace, his entire body seeming to be shrouded in the rhythm of the Dao!

Yang Mei, Xuan Yuan, Caifeng, Kui Ox, White Tiger, and many other powerful figures had gathered within the great hall!

Yang Mei said, "Fellow Daoist, what level of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm have you reached now?"

Taichu smiled faintly. "I have already reached the third level. Chaos truly benefits my cultivation. From what I can see, Fellow Daoist, you are about to break through as well, aren't you?"

Yang Mei said, "Indeed. I was just about to ask Fellow Daoist to accompany me into Chaos and help me attain the Dao!"

Xuan Yuan also said, "Master, I want to go too. I can no longer suppress the power of the Primordial Wilderness within my body!"

Everyone burst into laughter at this!

Taichu glanced at Kui Ox and said, "Come along. Let us enter Chaos and attain the Dao!"

With a flash, he brought the three of them into Chaos!

"Master, do you mean for the three of us to attain the Dao together?"

Taichu nodded at this!

"Then might there be some giants, great birds, or the like?"

"It matters not. Focus on attaining the Dao. Leave the rest to your master!"

With that, the three of them sat down cross-legged where they stood!

Three thousand years later, the four of them appeared together within Taichu Palace!

Seeing the four return, Caifeng immediately ran forward and said, "Congratulations, Senior Yang Mei! Congratulations, Hall Master Kui Ox! Congratulations, Eldest Senior Brother, on attaining the Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm!"

White Tiger also stepped forward with congratulations, then said enviously, "I wonder when I will be able to attain the Primordial realm myself."

Caifeng said, "Hall Master White Tiger, you have already reached the great completion of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm. I believe you will attain the Dao before long!"

Xuan Yuan added, "When you have nothing to do, I'll spar with you more often. Then you'll advance faster!"

"I'm not sparring with you. You're a Primordial Saint now—you could send me flying with one punch!"

"Hahaha!"

Laughter filled the great hall!

"Eh! Where is Master? Why is Master gone?" Caifeng said!

At that moment, Taichu had already arrived at Pangu Hall!

"Nephew Di Jiang, nephew Zhu Jiuyin, niece Hou Tu... pay respects to Uncle!"

By this time, all Twelve Ancestral Witches had taken form!

Taichu nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad. You are all Golden Immortals of the Great Luo now. Cultivate well and do not stir up trouble! Your uncle will come see you again after a while!"

"Uncle, are you leaving again? Every time you leave, it is for several kalpas!" Xuan Ming said!

"That's right, that's right! Uncle, every time you come, you only stay for a quarter of an hour, but once you leave, you're gone for a million years. Haven't you noticed that Hou Tu has grown taller?"

Looking at the two of them, Taichu said, "Yes, you two have grown into young ladies as well. Fine, this time your uncle will stay with you longer!"

With the time for the Purple Cloud Palace's lecture drawing ever closer, mighty figures from every corner of the Primordial World rushed toward the Purple Cloud Palace within the chaos!

At the bottom of the North Sea lay an enormous fish stretching for hundreds of millions of li. In the sky, it became a Peng; in the sea, it became a Kun. The Kun was so vast that not even a single pot could stew it!

This was Kunpeng. However, the Kunpeng of this life possessed a trace of Hun Kun Old Ancestor's inheritance!

Kunpeng spread his wings and soared, covering two hundred thousand li in a single breath as he sped toward the Purple Cloud Palace!

The two innate sovereigns born within the Sun Star, Dijun and Taiyi, were likewise heading for the Purple Cloud Palace!

The two brothers used the Golden Crow Rainbow Transformation Technique, traveling two hundred and forty thousand li in a single breath—the fastest speed in the Primordial World!

The Three Purities brothers of Kunlun Mountain were also heading toward the Purple Cloud Palace, though the three of them argued without end along the way!

Nuwa and Fuxi also departed from Phoenix Perch Mountain and headed into the chaos. Along the way, Fuxi told Nuwa of all manner of dangers in the Primordial World, leaving Nuwa frowning again and again!

Eastern Duke, Western Queen Mother, Nether River Ancestor...

For a time, the mighty figures of the Primordial World all made their way to the Purple Cloud Palace one after another!

After an unknown length of time, everyone arrived before the gates of the Purple Cloud Palace!

The palace gates were tightly shut, and everyone gathered before them to wait!

"Can you fucking stop shoving me?!"

"Ow, so what if I shoved you? If you don't like it, fight me one-on-one!"

"Fuck, you think I'm afraid of you?!"

"You bastard, you actually dared to squeeze through while we weren't paying attention!"

"Come on, let's join forces and deal with him first!"

Outside the Purple Cloud Palace, the crowd had descended into complete chaos!

Inside the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun saw this scene and held his forehead in both hands!

"Fuck, this batch of students is so hard to manage. If I hadn't promised the Heavenly Dao, I wouldn't be preaching the Dao to you lot! What a pain!"

Within Pangu Hall, Taichu had spent several thousand years playing with the Twelve Ancestral Witches. Then Taichu said, "Hongjun has become a saint and will preach the Dao to all living beings. You should go listen as well!"

The Water God Gonggong said, "Uncle, we're not going. We want to hear Uncle preach the Dao!"

The Fire God Zhu Rong said, "Uncle, is that old man stronger than you?"

Zhu Jiuyin said, "How can that even be compared? Uncle is definitely stronger than that old man, right, Uncle?"

"Uncle probably isn't as strong as that old man, though. That old man is so old already!"

"Uncle..."

Everyone chimed in at once, talking nonstop!

Taichu glanced at Di Jiang, and Di Jiang immediately understood!

Di Jiang walked before the crowd, shook his fist, and said, "Go with me to the Purple Cloud Palace and listen to the Dao!"

At once, everyone was so frightened that they did not dare make a sound!

Over countless years, they had taken no small number of beatings from Di Jiang!

As the world spun around them, Taichu used his great divine power to send them to the Purple Cloud Palace!

Taichu's voice rang in their ears. "No causing trouble!"

Meanwhile, just as the crowd was bickering noisily, the gates of the Purple Cloud Palace opened!

Two children who looked like attendants emerged, one boy and one girl!

The boy was obedient and adorable, while the girl was as delicately sculpted as jade!

The boy said, "No noise is permitted outside the Purple Cloud Palace! If you anger our teacher, you cannot bear the consequences!"

With that, he slowly opened the gates of the Purple Cloud Palace!

The moment the gates opened, everyone surged inside in a swarm!

"You fucking stepped on my shoe!"

"Ow, fuck, can you stop pushing me?!"

"Which lecher took advantage of the chaos to grope this old lady's ass?!"
