Chen Tian walked out of Purple Cloud Palace and found that at least half the people had yet to leave... Well, they weren't waiting for him. They were watching the show.

"Daoist Friend, this is Purple Cloud Palace, the Saint's Dojo. Are you really going to fight it out here?" East King Duke said in a deep voice, looking at Di Jun and Taiyi before him...

"Hmph. East King Duke, if you hadn't started this in the first place, why would we have stopped you?" Di Jun sneered.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong with Master?" Chen Tian asked as he came over to the Three Pure Ones.

"What else could it be? East King Duke was appointed by the teacher as the leader of the male immortals, and started recruiting people right after leaving Purple Cloud Palace. Di Jun had only recently founded the Demon Court and was already harboring resentment. Naturally, they ran into each other." Tongtian chuckled.

"I see." Chen Tian nodded. Indeed, he wouldn't have been able to take it either.

Damn it! I just founded the Demon Court, and you come before me acting like the emperor's envoy just because you've got a chicken feather? Isn't that like carrying a lantern into a toilet to look for shit?

"All right, all right. Our disciple has come out. Let's return to Kunlun Mountain." After Yuanshi saw Chen Tian come out, he pulled him along. After all, he was still thinking about the system mission! And he could show off in front of his disciple too—a perfect win-win!

"Good." Taiqing Laozi nodded as well. He hadn't even severed his second corpse yet, while his third brother had already done so. Where did that leave him, as the eldest brother?

"Mm... Very good." Tongtian agreed too.

"Sister Nuwa, see you at the next lecture! I haven't even had a chance to talk to you yet~"

Chen Tian smiled at Nuwa, but Tongtian was already dragging him away... The sight was hilarious!

Nuwa nodded with a smile. "Let us travel together."

Nuwa followed them, and Fuxi naturally followed as well.

"Little Sister Yaochi, next time I'll definitely make that old fool Dao Ancestor let you come to the Prehistoric World with me. Then... Aah! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts! Sister Nuwa... It's going to break, my ear's going to break..."

Before Chen Tian could finish, Nuwa's jade-like hand had already seized his ear and twisted it, looking very much like his wife.

Hmph! You lecher! How dare you flirt with other women right in front of me? Do you think I don't exist?

The Three Pure Ones watched the scene with cheerful expressions. Fuxi did the same. He seemed to have grown used to it. Then again, Chen Tian was the first disciple of the Three Pure Ones, had created his own Method of Becoming a Saint, and possessed the Innate Dao Body. His foundations were profound, so it wasn't disgraceful for him to become his sister's Dao Companion.

Then, the Three Pure Ones, the Fuxi siblings, and Chen Tian left without paying any attention to their conflict. This was the Saint's Dojo, after all. They wouldn't go too far. At most, they were only competing over face.

In the Chaos, Chen Tian looked at the furious Nuwa with speechless exasperation. Damn it! You crazy woman, you twisted my ear and I didn't even get angry. What are you angry about?

Fine, then stay angry as long as you want! I seem to remember that after my third Master received his reward, I hadn't claimed mine yet. I'll claim it first.

Then... then this bastard really closed his eyes and ignored everything. Nuwa was so furious that the second Buddha rose to Heaven and the third Buddha reincarnated!

You're not even going to coax me? Huh? Why does your attitude make it seem as though I'm the one in the wrong?

The more Nuwa thought about it, the angrier she became. Her eyes gleamed coldly as she stared at Chen Tian, as if she were trying to think of a way to deal with him...

At that moment, Chen Tian, who was about to claim his reward, shuddered all over, as though some terrifying existence had set its sights on him. He didn't think much of it, though. His three Masters were here, and they were all Quasi-Saints. Who would dare come?

System, where's my share from when Sect Master Tongtian claimed his reward earlier? Chen Tian asked inwardly.

Ding—Mother-Child System: Host's available rewards are: Array Dao Palm Dao (Heavenly Dao level), Sword Dao Palm Dao (Heavenly Dao level). However, because the Host has already attained mastery of the Array Dao, it can be exchanged for Zither Dao Palm Dao (Heavenly Dao level).

Heavenly Dao level? Why wasn't that mentioned before? Chen Tian wondered inwardly.

Ding—Mother-Child System: Previously, the Host did not understand the world's levels, so the system did not inform the Host. Now that the Host understands them, the world's levels have been marked. They will also appear on the Host's main interface!

"I see." Chen Tian nodded, then thought, Open the main interface!

Ding—Host: Chen Tian. Cultivation: Mid-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal. Cultivation Method: Hongmeng Scripture. Treasures: Mountain River Fan, Primordial Staff, Innate Five Directions Banner. Divine Abilities: Soaring Golden Light, Universe Grand Unity Shift, Tiangang Thirty-Six Transformations, Disha Seventy-Two Transformations, Cosmos in the Sleeve... Dao Mastery: Painting Dao Palm Dao (Heavenly Dao level), Array Dao Palm Dao (Heavenly Dao level), Great Accomplishment of the Great Dao of War (Heavenly Dao level). Number of Choices: Eleven. System Possessions: Salted Fish, Martial Arts, Chat Group, Sign-in, Fishing, Summoning, Live Streaming, Mother-Child.

"Apparently, the Daos I've already mastered are only at the Heavenly Dao level. The world's levels are divided like this: above the Primordial Heavenly Dao is the Chaos, then the Great Dao, and finally Hongmeng... The road ahead is long..."

Chen Tian sighed inwardly, then thought, Claim Zither Dao Palm Dao and Sword Dao Palm Dao!

Ding—Mother-Child System: Certainly, Host!

Chen Tian then claimed his rewards. Outside, within the Chaos.

The five people, who had originally been flying peacefully back to the Prehistoric World, suddenly trembled! Dao Charm swirled around Chen Tian, and the entire Chaos seemed as if a nuclear bomb had gone off! Countless streams of Chaos Qi formed a vortex above Chen Tian's head. The vortex even seemed to possess intelligence, following the Three Pure Ones as they flew...

The scene from Buzhou Mountain appeared before everyone's eyes once more!

"This, this, this, this..." Tongtian pointed at Chen Tian in disbelief. "Damn! You attained enlightenment again?!"

"Third Brother, don't disturb our disciple. Hurry and comprehend the Dao!" Yuanshi hurriedly transmitted his voice. One couldn't be disturbed while comprehending the Dao; otherwise, it would become a life-and-death grudge!

After all, as the saying went, attaining enlightenment in a single day was no easy matter. Comprehending the Dao was incredibly difficult!

As the saying went, cutting off someone's path to wealth was like killing their parents. To the Three Pure Ones and the others, cutting off someone's path to enlightenment was like killing his entire family, digging up the graves of his ancestors for eighteen generations, then spitting on the ground and saying, "Damn, you're really poor!"

Could anyone endure that?

After understanding, Tongtian hurriedly shut his mouth. Then he began comprehending the Dao beside Chen Tian. This was Dao Charm! Hurry, hurry, take a sip while you can, or there won't even be soup left!

The corner of Fuxi's mouth twitched violently. In the end, he sighed. "This really is a monster..."

Then he began comprehending the Dao as well.

Thus, six people sat cross-legged within the Chaos. The Chaos Storm seemed to have eyes and never came near this place. When the other mortal-world visitors saw this, they sat down without hesitation to comprehend the Dao as well. Although this meant forming karma with Chen Tian, they could simply repay it later.

Don't assume that you could easily comprehend the Dao just by sitting around Chen Tian. Karma was mixed into this as well. If you didn't resolve that karma, the Heavenly Dao would come to settle accounts with you.

Di Jun and the others had already incurred two debts of karma with Chen Tian. Even so, they still had to comprehend the Dao. Such an opportunity was incredibly rare!

Therefore, the mortal-world visitors who arrived later all sat cross-legged within the Chaos to comprehend the Dao. From time to time, zither music and Sword Cry rang out within the Chaos! To Fuxi and Tongtian, this was an enormous benefit!
