After everyone took the oath, Nuwa took out Creation Cauldron and handed it to Wu Ming.
Wu Ming reached out and took it, with a smile on his face.
"Very good."
"Then now, I will tell you how to comprehend this Hongmeng Purple Qi."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the Pangu Hall instantly became tense.
Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Jieyin, Zhunti, six pairs of eyes stared at Wu Ming, and their ears stood up high, for fear of missing a word.
They paid a high price for this moment.
Wu Ming paused, seemed to be organizing his words, and then slowly said, "Actually, Hongmeng Purple Qi is unable to comprehend it at this stage."
"What?!"
Yuanshi was the first to explode. He stood up suddenly and glared at Wu Ming: "Wu Ming! How dare you trick me!"
"We paid the price, and you actually told us that we couldn't comprehend it?!"
"Are you entertaining me?"
The aura around him was surging, and the air in the Pangu Hall was stagnant.
Taiqing frowned and looked at Wu Ming with scrutiny in his eyes.
Tongtian also looked stunned.
Nuwa frowned, obviously not expecting such an answer.
Jieyin and Zhunti's expressions changed drastically. Zhunti almost cried on the spot, "Wu Ming fellow Daoist, you... aren't you deceiving people?!"
"Can't understand? Then why did Dao Ancestor give Hongmeng Purple Qi? Does it look good?"
A thought arose in the minds of the six people at the same time: They were fooled!
Wu Ming faced the anger of the six future Sage, but there was no trace of panic on his face. He raised his hand.
"Fellow Daoists, please be patient and listen to what Pindao has to say."
Taiqing took a deep breath, suppressed the waves in his heart, and said to Yuanshi, "Second brother, sit down and listen to fellow Daoist Wu Ming."
Yuanshi snorted coldly, folded his sleeves and sat down, but his face was still so dark that water could drip from his face.
Everyone suppressed the anger and confusion in their hearts and looked at Wu Ming again.
Wu Ming then continued, "It is not entirely accurate to say that Hongmeng Purple Qi cannot comprehend."
"To be more precise, the time for you become a Saint has not yet come, so no matter how hard you try now, you cannot comprehend anything from Hongmeng Purple Qi."
"The time has not come yet?" Taiqing asked in a deep voice, with deep doubts in his tone.
Wu Ming nodded. "Not bad."
Wu Ming looked at their expressions and continued to throw out the bombshell news, "You are all disciples of Dao Ancestor. You are Hongmeng Purple Qi. You are destined to be Sage. You are destined to be Attain Sainthood in the future. There is no doubt about this."
After hearing this, the six people's expressions softened slightly, especially the four words "Heaven-Appointed Sage", which made them feel a lot more comfortable.
Especially Three Pure Ones, they already boast that Pangu Orthodox Sect is the destiny, and now they are even more excited when they hear Wu Ming's words.
Nuwa also has beautiful eyes and is filled with excitement.
Jieyin and Zhunti were trembling with excitement. They the West were poor and it was a great blessing to get Hongmeng Purple Qi. Now that they heard that they were destined to be become a Saint, they were so happy!
The previous dissatisfaction seemed to be diluted by this sudden and huge surprise.
Wu Ming took in everyone's expressions and continued, "However, your become a Saint time has indeed not arrived yet."
"Although you are destined to become a Saint, become a Saint also needs an opportunity."
"Before this opportunity appears, Hongmeng Purple Qi is just a stubborn stone to you. No matter how you think about it, it will not have any reaction."
"The real role of Hongmeng Purple Qi is that when your respective become a Saint opportunities come, it will naturally give you inspiration and guide you on what to do in order to successfully Attain Sainthood it."
"At that time, Hongmeng Purple Qi will naturally integrate into your Primordial Spirit, helping you to reach the sky and achieve Saint position."
After listening to Wu Ming's explanation, the six people gradually calmed down.
Tongtian touched his chin. "You mean, the fact that our enlightenment is fruitless now is not because our understanding is not good enough, nor is there something wrong with Hongmeng Purple Qi, but... the time has not come yet?"
"Not bad." Wu Ming nodded.
Yuanshi's brows were still furrowed and he snorted coldly, "Then according to what fellow Daoist said, can't we just wait now and not be able to do anything?"
There was obvious dissatisfaction in his tone.
If they could only wait, wouldn't the price they paid previously be...
Daoist Zhunti even looked sad. "Yes, fellow Daoist Wu Ming, if this is really the case, what we have paid for... wouldn't it be..."
He didn't finish what he said, but the meaning was already obvious, and he felt like he was at a huge loss.
Wu Ming shook his head. "I'm not asking you to just wait and do nothing."
"Before this opportunity comes, you can just concentrate on practicing and improve your own cultivation."
"The higher your cultivation level, the thicker your foundation. By the time of become a Saint, the higher the realm you can reach and the stronger your strength will be."
"So, before you wasted your own cultivation and focused on comprehending the Hongmeng Purple Qi that you cannot comprehend for the time being. This behavior is wrong in itself and puts the cart before the horse."
After everyone listened, they were speechless for a while.
I've been busy for a long time and still took the wrong route?
They spent so much money in exchange for such a "wait" tactic?
Although the news of "Heaven-Appointed Sage" is very exciting, it still feels... a bit worthless.
In particular, the biggest concern why they are so eager to become a Saint is Demon Clan!
Now telling them that they cannot become a Saint immediately, doesn't that mean that the Hongmeng Purple Qi in their hands is still at risk of being snatched away by the Demon Clan?
Zhunti even looked sad. "Wu Ming, fellow Daoist, then... what if Demon Clan comes to steal our Hongmeng Purple Qi?"
"We can't become a Saint now, and we can't defeat them even if we fight!"
Wu Ming seemed to have expected that they would ask this question, and said calmly, "In fact, you don't need to worry too much about this."
"Demon Clan doesn't have the guts to openly rob the become a Saint foundation of Dao Ancestor disciples."
"You are the disciples of Dao Ancestor, and the one standing behind you is Dao Ancestor Hongjun. As long as the minds of those Demon Clan are not caught in the door, they will not be stupid enough to touch this bottom line."
"Besides, I just said that you are Heaven-Appointed Sage. This Saint position was decided by Heavenly Dao and is your destiny."
"Unless you go out of your way to provoke Demon Clan, push them to the point of jumping over the wall, or do something outrageous, your Saint position is as stable as Buzhou Mountain, and no one can take away your Hongmeng Purple Qi."
"The six futons in Zixiao Palace are the best proof. Why did Daoist Patriarch wait until the two Daoists Yin and Zhunti had settled down on the futons before appearing to preach? Don't you understand the profound meaning of this?"
Jieyin and Zhunti were refreshed upon hearing this.
Yes!
The scene of the Zixiao Palace fighting for seats is still vivid in my mind.
Without Dao Ancestor's acquiescence, how could the two of them secure the position of those two Cushion?
So, is their Saint position really destined to be Heavenly Dao?
"So, go back to practice with peace of mind, and just wait for your respective become a Saint opportunities to come."
Wu Ming's words were reasonable and well-founded, which made the six of them feel at ease a lot.
Indeed, they are disciples of Dao Ancestor. No matter how powerful Demon Clan is, he would not dare to touch them easily.
"Is what fellow Daoist Wu Ming said... true?" Taiqing looked at Wu Ming with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.
Although Wu Ming said it clearly, he still wanted to confirm it again.
Wu Ming met Taiqing's eyes calmly. "It's absolutely true."
"I have no grudges with you in the past, and I have no grudges with you recently. There is no need to deceive you on this matter."
"Besides, what benefit will it bring to me, Witch Clan, by deceiving several future Sages?"
"Are you waiting for all of you become a Saint to come to me to settle accounts? I'm not that worried about it yet."
Tongtian was the first to express his position. "I believe what fellow Daoist Wu Ming said. With the kind of person Wu Ming is, he will not deceive us about this kind of thing."
"As fellow Daoist Wu Ming said, lying to us will not do him any good. Instead, he will form a deadly feud with me and the six future Sages, and the gain will outweigh the loss."
Taiqing and Yuanshi also nodded slightly and agreed with Tongtian's statement.
Nuwa's worries have also eased a lot.
When everyone thinks about it, this is indeed the truth.
Wu Ming There is no need to lie to them.
But...
When I think of the price I and others have paid, especially Jieyin and Zhunti, I feel a burst of pain in my heart.
The two of them paid the highest price, and in the end they got something like this... Call it important, it is indeed important. Knowing the key to become a Saint, knowing that you are Heaven-Appointed Sage.
But you might say it's not important. This news doesn't seem to be that immediate. It's more of a psychological comfort and direction guide.
All in all, I just feel a bit shortchanged.
But the matter has come to this, the oath has been made, no matter how dissatisfied you are, you can only keep it in your heart.
Now that the news has been obtained, whether you like it or not, the matter is a foregone conclusion.
The six of them did not stay for long. After saying goodbye briefly to Wu Ming, they left Buzhou Mountain with complicated emotions.
Wu Ming sent the six people out of the Pangu Hall and watched them turn into six streams of light and go away. He thought of what Tongtian said about Great Formation of the Stars.
He murmured to himself in a low voice, "For the sake of Primordial Wilderness's balance, and for my Witch Clan..., it's time to find an opponent for the Demon Clan."
