Treasure Distribution Rock, Battle

Hearing this, the Great Powers immediately bowed in thanks to the Dao Ancestor. As they left Purple Firmament Palace and prepared to head for Treasure Distribution Rock, Yun Ting transformed into a streak of shadowy light and blocked Zhunti's path. With a sly chuckle, he said, "Martial Uncle Zhunti, back then you wanted to convert me and take me to Mount Sumeru. Don't be in such a hurry to leave now—why don't we get a little closer?"

Zhunti chuckled. "Fine. I'll spar with you, nephew/disciple." As he spoke, he brought out the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and swept it forward. Yet it was blocked by blossoming white lotus flowers—none other than the Twelve-grade Pure World White Lotus.

Yun Ting laughed. "As expected of Martial Uncle Zhunti. Sparring with a junior, yet you strike first? Fine, I'll have a proper game with you." With that, the Law of the Sword Dao surged across the Hun Yuan Sword. His Chaos Sword Body worked in tandem with the Chaos Bead, granting him inexhaustible mana. With a single sword strike, streams of Sword Qi carrying boundless destructive power surged toward Zhunti.

Zhunti chuckled, holding the Green Lotus Treasure Banner. Green light shimmered across the banner as it blocked Yun Ting's attack. "Little nephew/disciple, your Martial Uncle is already a Quasi-Saint. You are no match for me."

Yun Ting laughed. "If one cannot fight across realms, how can one be called a prodigy of the Primordial Wilderness? You, Zhunti, want to go to Treasure Distribution Rock to divide up treasures? Hand over the Green Lotus Treasure Banner. That thing is fated to me."

Hearing Yun Ting invoke the Affinity Doctrine, Zhunti's face turned green with rage. He looked toward Tong Tian and said, "Fellow Daoist Tong Tian, are you not going to discipline your son for such behavior? This Green Lotus Treasure Banner was given to me by Teacher."

Yun Ting scratched his head. "So what if Grandfather Dao Ancestor gave it to you? If you won't give it to me today, I'll take it by force. This treasure is fated to me. You should know that Pangu Elder God was born from the Chaos Green Lotus. I am Pangu Elder God's only grandson, and this treasure begins with the words 'Green Lotus'—so it should be mine."

Zhunti charged furiously at Yun Ting. "Tong Tian, if you will not discipline your son, I shall do it for you. Don't regret it afterward."

Tong Tian burst into laughter. "Rest assured, discipline him however you like. I absolutely won't interfere." Then he sent a transmission to Laozi. "Big Brother, lend Ting'er the Taiji Diagram. I'm afraid he truly won't be able to beat Zhunti in a moment."

Upon hearing this, Laozi thought, This kid excels in the Great Dao of Yin Yang. With the Taiji Diagram to aid him, a Late Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal fighting a Late Quasi-Saint should not be much of a problem. With that thought, he directly handed the Taiji Diagram to Yun Ting. "Your Martial Uncle Zhunti is a Quasi-Saint, after all. How can you treat him with such disrespect? Put this on before fighting him again."

Yun Ting took the Taiji Diagram and draped it over himself. "Everyone, hurry to Treasure Distribution Rock and divide the treasures. I'll hold Zhunti back for you. Hmph, he spends every day scraping the East clean, claiming everything he sees is fated to him. Today, I say his Green Lotus Treasure Banner is fated to me..." As he spoke, he raised a hand and pointed at the Taiji Diagram. Yin Yang energy transformed into two massive dragons, instantly enveloping Zhunti.

Seeing this, Laozi said, "Let's go. With Zhunti's strength, he probably has no way to deal with this child now. If we do not leave soon, the treasures on Treasure Distribution Rock will all be taken."

Thus, the Great Powers all went to seize treasures. On the way, Tong Tian asked Laozi, "Big Brother, what was that method Ting'er used just now?"

"Oh, the Two Forms Dust Array. Life and death, illusion and extinction, are but bubbles and shadows; the Two Forms are equal to motes of dust. With the Taiji Diagram as its formation core and Yin Yang energy twisting and grinding within, although Zhunti is a Quasi-Saint, escaping will not be easy for him. Unfortunately, Ting'er's temperament is still too soft. He used a Trapping Array rather than a Killing Array." Laozi stroked his beard.

Before long, the Great Powers were frantically snatching treasures atop Treasure Distribution Rock. Even Jieyin had not bothered with Zhunti and had rushed over to seize treasures first. When Tong Tian saw Jieyin, he laughed loudly. "Junior brother Jieyin, you rushed to Treasure Distribution Rock to divide treasures like this—are you not afraid my son will kill junior brother Zhunti?"

"Ha ha, senior brother Tong Tian jests. My junior brother is, after all, a Late Quasi-Saint. Though Yun Ting's talent is high, he remains in the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. I fear he cannot defeat my junior brother." Jieyin laughed.

Back on the battlefield, after Yun Ting trapped Zhunti with the Two Forms Dust Array, streams of Hun Yuan Sword Qi launched continuous sneak attacks. Whenever his spiritual power ran short, he drew more from the Chaos Bead. By now, he had carved Zhunti into a beggar's rags.

From within the array came Yun Ting's voice. "Zhunti, hurry up and hand over the Green Lotus Treasure Banner. This young master will spare your life. Otherwise, do you believe I'll grind you to death and then snatch your Primordial Violet Qi as well?"

"Ha ha, Yun Ting, do you think I cannot see through you? By now, your mana should already be nearly exhausted, shouldn't it?" Zhunti sneered from within the great array.

Outside the array, Yun Ting communicated with the system. "If I kill this guy, there won't be any major consequences, right?"

"Oh, well... this guy is one of the Heaven-Ordained Sages, so he cannot be killed. Castrating him would be fine, though." Within the system space, A Certain Lady frowned and replied.

"That's too brutal. Forget it." Yun Ting shuddered in disgust, then called out loudly, "Zhunti... I still have several bottles of Nine-Revolutions Golden Elixir here. Do you believe that if you still refuse to hand over the Green Lotus Treasure Banner, you won't even be able to keep your Primordial Violet Qi?"

Hearing this, Zhunti hurriedly wailed, "Teacher! Hurry and look! Nephew/disciple Yun Ting is bullying his Martial Uncle..."

Inside Purple Firmament Palace, Hongjun—who had been muttered about by Zhunti—felt his brow twitch. He muttered, "What is going on? Zhunti has been tied up by Yun Ting? Fine..."
