Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun emerged from seclusion

In the Primordial Wilderness, years were not recorded.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of years have quietly passed.

Buzhou Mountain, Pangu Hall.

Deep within the usually calm and still palace, a faint noise suddenly emanated from two tightly closed secret chambers.

A mysterious and powerful aura spread out like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.

Zhou Ming and Houtu, who were sitting quietly inside the hall, opened their eyes at almost the same time.

The two exchanged a glance, and then their figures vanished from the spot simultaneously.

The next moment, they appeared outside the two secret rooms.

"Squeak--"

The heavy Stone Gate slowly opened, and two Dao Body walked out side by side.

Two Dao Body, one dressed in an apricot-yellow Daoist robe and the other in fiery red, slowly emerged from among them.

It was Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun, who had been in seclusion for thousands of years.

The two people at this moment were completely different from those before they went into seclusion.

Although their Surrounding Body was extremely restrained, their every move subtly resonated with the Law heaven and earth.

A harmonious and flawless Dao Rhyme flowed naturally, clearly indicating a great advancement in one's Daoist cultivation.

As soon as Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun emerged from the pass, they saw the two people waiting outside. They quickly stepped forward and bowed in greeting.

"Greetings Fellow Daoist Zhou Ming, Fellow Daoist Houtu."

Their words were filled with heartfelt respect and gratitude.

Zhou Ming and Houtu accepted the greeting without hesitation.

Zhou Ming sized up the two of them, and a smile appeared on Houtu cold face.

"Congratulations on your successful completion of seclusion, fellow Daoists. Your strength has improved even further." Zhou Ming nodded calmly.

"Congratulations to you two fellow Daoists, your Dao Path has been renewed, and you are even more accomplished than before," Houtu said softly.

Upon hearing Zhou Ming's congratulations, Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun displayed even more complex emotions.

There was joy, there were emotions, but above all, there was endless gratitude.

Zhen Yuanzi sighed deeply and bowed deeply to Zhou Ming once again.

"We have a lot to thank for Fellow Daoist Zhou Ming!"

"If it weren't for your special instructions back then, that we two should never give up on comprehending the Law no matter what."

"After we were dismembered, it would be impossible for us to make such progress in such a short time."

Hong Yun, her face also filled with emotion, nodded vigorously in agreement.

"Daoist Brother Zhen Yuanzi is absolutely right! Only by rebuilding oneself from the ashes can one truly appreciate the preciousness of the Great Dao!"

"Only now do I truly understand that the Law Power is the foundation of the Hunyuan!"

They were speaking from the bottom of their hearts.

In recent years, they have been in seclusion in the Pangu Hall. After successfully dismembering their bodies, they devoted all their energy to cultivating and comprehending the Law.

Today, the two of them have not only rebuilt their foundation, but also continued their Dao Path.

Their cultivation levels reached an even higher level, both stepping into the peak of the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal!

Just one last step away, and one can leap over the Dragon Gate and attain the Great Powers realm of the Primordial Wilderness Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm!

Zhou Ming looked at the two of them and slowly spoke.

"You two are too kind."

"The opportunity was given to you, and your ability to seize it depends on your own perseverance and understanding."

"Now, you two fellow Daoists have reached the Peak Primordial Origin Golden Immortal, and you are only one step away from becoming a Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal."

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the boundless pride and barely suppressed excitement in each other's eyes.

"Yes... we can prepare now." Zhen Yuanzi murmured to himself, his voice trembling slightly.

Hong Yun burst into laughter, her laughter filled with joy and relief.

"Hahaha! Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal! I, Hong Yun, actually have the opportunity to glimpse such a supreme realm!"

After the laughter subsided, he and Zhen Yuanzi gradually calmed down.

Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal!

They've finally reached this point!

Once upon a time, this was just a distant dream.

They had even thought that this was a hopeless situation for them, but now, it was actually right in front of them.

They finally reached this point.

The two exchanged a glance, suppressing their excitement, and their expressions became extremely solemn.

They knew perfectly well who was responsible for all of this.

If it weren't for Zhou Ming, their Dao Path would have been severed long ago.

The best outcome would be nothing more than relying on the luck of the Earthly Dao or Humanity Dao's Fortune.

Becoming a Merit Saint with flawed foundations means there is no possibility of further advancement.

Where would we have this opportunity today, to Prove Dao with Laws and glimpse the true Hunyuan Chaos!

Thinking of this, the two could no longer suppress their gratitude.

Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun stood solemnly and once again bowed deeply to Zhou Ming.

"Thank you for your guidance, fellow Daoist!"

"Fellow Daoist, your kindness is beyond our ability to repay!"

"If you ever need our services in the future, fellow Daoist, even if we perish and our souls are annihilated, we will have no regrets!"

Their words were forceful and resounding, representing their most resolute will.

Zhou Ming watched them quietly, without stopping them again.

This time, Zhou Ming did not stop them.

He accepted the bow calmly.

What he needs is an ally who is completely loyal and possesses great power.

He spoke slowly after the two had finished their greetings.

"You two are too kind."

"The three of us met when we were humble beginnings and Eon. Our friendship has long been extraordinary. It would be too formal to say such things."

Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun stood up, and were even more moved when they heard Zhou Ming's words.

The three exchanged a glance, everything understood without a word, and finally burst into hearty laughter.

"Hahaha!"

The three looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Past kindnesses and future promises are all contained in this smile.

The atmosphere inside the main hall became incredibly relaxed and harmonious.

However, at that moment, Zhou Ming's smile slowly faded, and his expression became serious.

"Fellow Daoists."

"There is something I need to tell you."

Seeing that his expression was strange, Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun immediately stopped smiling and said seriously.

"Fellow Daoist, please speak."

Zhou Ming's gaze swept over the two of them, and he spoke slowly and deliberately.

"The Tribulation is approaching."

The moment the words left his mouth, the atmosphere in the hall froze.

The smiles on Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun's faces froze, replaced by deep astonishment and shock.

"What?"

Hong Yun blurted it out almost without thinking.

"Tribulation... is coming?"

Zhen Yuanzi's brows furrowed tightly.

They've only just emerged from seclusion, and haven't even had a chance to properly experience this new realm, so how are they already facing Tribulation?

They understood the horror of Tribulation better than anyone else.

Dragon-Han Tribulation, the three overlords of the races were annihilated.

The Immortal-Demon Tribulation resulted in the mutual destruction of two top-tier forces.

Each Tribulation signifies endless death and Destruction.

Even those below the level of Saint are in danger of falling from grace!

Zhen Yuanzi took a deep breath and looked at Zhou Ming.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou Ming, what is the cause of this Tribulation?"

"This Tribulation is Killing Tribulation for the Mystic Gate)."

Subsequently, Zhou Ming recounted how Haotian had been humiliated, and how he went to the Purple Cloud Palace to cry and complain, prompting Hongjun to issue Imperial Edict.

He briefly recounted the events leading up to the Killing Tribulation, instructing disciples of the Three Teachings to fill the divine positions in Heavenly Court.

After listening to Zhou Ming's account, Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun visibly relaxed.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness..." Hong Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

"It turns out to be an internal Killing Tribulation within their Mystic Gate, which has nothing to do with us."

Zhen Yuanzi nodded in agreement.

"Good."

"Since it is disciples of the Three Teachings who are facing this calamity, it shouldn't involve us."

They were well aware of the dangers of the Tribulation, and now was the crucial time for them to break through to the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

I really don't want to get involved in any Karma or be dragged into this kind of trouble.

Even though they are now at the Peak Primordial Origin Golden Immortal, they dare not say that they can remain unharmed in such a great Great Calamity.

Now that I hear this is just an internal conflict within the Mystic Gate, the heavy weight that had been hanging over my heart has finally been lifted.

All they need to do is close the cave door tightly, quietly recite the Yellow Court, ignore the outside disturbances, and they can sit and watch the clouds rise and fall, waiting for the Tribulation to pass.
