He waved his hand to test it.

As expected, the Heaven Suppressing Coffin moved according to his will, its size adjustable at will.

"Fellow Daoist, please show mercy and let us live!"

"Senior, spare us!"

"We don't want to be imprisoned in this coffin forever!"

Azure Heaven, Azure Sky, and Yellow Heaven wailed.

"Don't worry, you won't be trapped in the coffin forever," Hongyun replied calmly.

"Really... really? Senior is going to set us free?"

"That's great, thank you for your immense kindness, Senior!"

"We will never forget this kindness!"

A hint of cunning flashed in the eyes of the Three Souls as they looked at Hongyun, waiting for their escape.

Once free, they would flee, regain their strength, and seek revenge.

"I never said I would let you leave!"

"Then..."

The Three Souls were filled with confusion upon hearing this.

"Rise!"

Hongyun raised his hand and summoned the Great Dao Treasure Gourd.

Inside the gourd, the remnant soul of the Beast Emperor, Reincarnation, was about to self-destruct.

But he had forcefully sealed it, rendering it unable to move.

Now, he intended to place this remnant soul into the Heaven Suppressing Coffin.

Once the seal was broken, the remnant soul would instantly explode.

This soul had already lost its mind, and its self-destruction was unstoppable.

It would be oblivious even if the heavens and earth were to change.

"No... no..."

The Three Souls screamed in terror upon seeing this.

They sensed the terrifying aura of the remnant soul of Reincarnation, with signs of impending chaos, and were utterly petrified.

This soul, in its lifetime, must have been a terrifying expert several times more powerful than them.

If it were to self-destruct nearby, they, the Three Souls, would bear the brunt of it, with no escape.

Hongyun ignored the screams of the Three Souls.

He directly sent the remnant soul of Reincarnation into the Heaven Suppressing Coffin.

Now, this coffin was completely under his control.

Afterward, he sealed the Three Souls and the remnant soul of Reincarnation together in the coffin.

With a whoosh!

He carried the Heaven Suppressing Coffin and headed straight for the First Heavy Heaven, the lowest level of the Thirty-Three Heavens.

The First Heavy Heaven was the entrance to the Thirty-Three Heavens.

If the Demon Clan were to enter, they would have to pass through here first.

He brought out the Heaven Suppressing Coffin again.

"I'll leave this coffin here. When the Demon Clan arrives, I'll collect it!" Hongyun plotted in his heart.

He cultivated the Mythical Grand Unity Method and had refined the Heaven Suppressing Coffin.

He only needed to leave a wisp of his divine consciousness on the coffin, and even if he were in the Fire Cloud Cave, he could recall it instantly.

Upon recall, he would break the seals on the Three Souls and the remnant soul of Reincarnation.

At that time, a world-shattering explosion would erupt.

When the remnant soul of Reincarnation exploded, it would also detonate the Three Souls.

A dazzling, ultimate explosion would sweep through the Nine Heavens.

The entire First Heavy Heaven might even be reduced to nothing.

"Tsk tsk!"

Hongyun chuckled, already envisioning the Demon Clan falling into his trap.

At that time, he would also receive rewards from the System!

He didn't harm people without reason.

It was because Dijun, Taiyi, and Kunpeng bore deep grudges against him.

Kunpeng especially, as he had already been resented by him for giving up his seat in Purple霄 Palace in a previous life.

Even if he didn't make a move, the three would constantly provoke him.

Like last time, after the second sermon in Purple Heaven Palace, the three secretly passed a message to Old Ancestor Minghe.

Ordering Minghe to intercept and kill him halfway.

If not for his extraordinary strength and the Great Dao Treasure Gourd protecting him, he would have been ambushed and harmed by Minghe and Blood Mosquito Daoist.

What a shame...

In the end, Minghe still offered ninety percent of the Netherworld Blood Sea.

"I wonder what the feud between Blood Mosquito Daoist and Old Ancestor Minghe has evolved into now?"

Hongyun pondered inwardly, his interest piqued.

Back then, Blood Mosquito Daoist harbored deep resentment towards Old Ancestor Minghe and was not someone who would easily let things go.

RUMBLE!

At this moment, a world-shattering tremor came from the Thirty-Three Heavens.

"Huh? Could it be that the Thirty-Three Heavens are about to appear?"

Hongyun sensed this tremor, which was precisely the sign of its emergence, and his heartstrings vibrated slightly.

He gently put down the Heaven Suppressing Coffin, leaving a trace of his divine sense on it.

Then, he summoned the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, fiercely split open a crack in the barrier of the Thirty-Three Heavens, and transformed into a rainbow light, heading straight for the Fire Cloud Cave.

Inside the Fire Cloud Cave.

Hongyun began to calculate the treasures he had obtained from exploring the Thirty-Three Heavens this time.

SWISH!

With a wave of his hand, dozens, even hundreds, of spiritual treasures appeared before his eyes.

"Most of these treasures are of the acquired variety. There are only a few Innate Spiritual Treasures, and they are all of the low-grade level!"

Hongyun carefully examined the pile of spiritual treasures and murmured softly.

The number of spiritual treasures in the Thirty-Three Heavens was truly scarce.

He then tossed these spiritual treasures to a corner of the cave, no longer paying them any attention.

SWISH!

He made another gesture, and two treasure cauldrons appeared out of thin air before him.

One was the supreme treasure for artifact refining in the Great Desolation: the Qiankun Cauldron.

The other was the divine artifact unparalleled in alchemy: the Cauldron of Fortune.

The Qiankun Cauldron was a gift from the System, while the Cauldron of Fortune was a rare treasure he found in the Thirty-Three Heavens.

This opportunity was truly a blessing from heaven.

SWISH!

Hongyun then revealed the few powerful artifacts he relied on now.

The Great Dao Treasure Gourd, the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, the Great Dao Cushion, and that gourd vine!

The Great Dao Treasure Gourd had a wide range of uses, excelling in both offense and defense, and could even trap enemies, possessing considerable power.

Its marvel lay in the fact that as Hongyun's cultivation progressed, its power also increased.

If Hongyun were only in the early stage of Grand Unity, the gourd's ability to trap and kill enemies would at most suppress those below the mid-stage of Grand Unity.

But once he stepped into the early stage of Quasi-Saint, it would be enough to counter experts below the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint.

When his cultivation reached the late stage of Quasi-Saint, this gourd could even restrain any existence below the Saint realm.

In terms of defensive ability, although it was not as good as the Chaos Bell, a Primordial Innate Treasure, it was far superior to the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, the foremost defensive artifact of the acquired type.

Among the supreme defensive treasures, it could be considered top-tier.

The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler was an acquired treasure of merit, with unparalleled attack power, needless to say.

If not for the assistance of this ruler on this trip to the Thirty-Three Heavens, Hongyun would probably have had difficulty finding its whereabouts.

The Great Dao Cushion could help him comprehend the profound mysteries of the Great Dao, and his cultivation speed would increase by more than a hundredfold.

Looking to the future, if Hongyun wished to achieve Mythical Grand Unity, the divine abilities, laws, and Great Dao he needed to comprehend would become increasingly vast.

And the assistance provided by the Great Dao Cushion would become increasingly significant.

If it were other great powers in the Great Desolation, even if they obtained the method for Mythical Grand Unity, achieving it would be a fool's dream.

This was because comprehending the laws of the Great Dao was as difficult as ascending to heaven!

Even Dao Ancestor Hongjun, holding a fragment of the Jade Disc of Creation, could not prove his Dao through the power of laws.

Since he could not comprehend the true meaning of the Great Dao, he had no choice but to create the technique of Severing the Three Corpses himself to achieve Sainthood.

This was Hongyun's unique trump card.

The Great Dao Cushion was a supreme reward bestowed by the System, obtained during the initial chaos.

Finally, there was the gourd vine he had refined using the Qiankun Cauldron.

This vine had now transformed into a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

However, it was not yet enough to be considered a supreme treasure.

"If things followed the original course, this gourd vine should have absorbed the Heavenly Dao's merit during Nuwa's creation of humans, transforming into the acquired merit treasure, the Human-Creating Whip!"

Hongyun mused to himself.

Now, this vine was in his hands, and even the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil, essential for creating humans, was in his possession.

How would Nuwa create humans then?

A hint of doubt arose in Hongyun's mind.

However, for now, he wouldn't dwell on this matter.

The immediate priority was to enhance his own cultivation to deal with Dao Ancestor Hongjun's scheme involving the Primordial Violet Qi.

Upon thinking of Hongjun's calculations, Hongyun felt a faint sense of anticipation.

In less than two thousand years, it would be time for Hongjun's third sermon.

He remembered that Hongjun would accept disciples, determine their Saint positions, bestow Primordial Violet Qi, and place numerous treasures on the Treasure Distribution Rock to be given to the three thousand guests of Zixiao Palace.

"Hongjun, if you don't scheme against me, then so be it. But if you dare to make a move against me..."

Hongyun snorted coldly, his killing intent hidden.

Now that he possessed the Mythical Incarnation, he was no longer as apprehensive as before, even when facing a Saint.

He then flipped his wrist.

Swish! Swish!

Three Saint Slaying Pills and Three Lights Divine Water floated before him.

The potent toxic aura emanating from the Saint Slaying Pills made Hongyun feel a sense of dread even without direct contact.

"These Saint Slaying Pills will kill anyone below the Quasi-Saint realm upon contact!"

Hongyun, who had now reached the peak of the second level of Mythical Grand Unity Foundation Establishment, still did not dare to touch them rashly.

Let alone consume them.

If he were to ingest these pills, even a Saint would struggle to withstand them.

One pill might not be enough to poison a Saint.

But with three pills, a Saint would surely perish.

"The Three Lights Divine Water is also incredibly poisonous; each drop contains deadly power!"

After pondering for a moment, Hongyun threw both the Saint Slaying Pills and the Three Lights Divine Water into the Cauldron of Fortune.

He intended to refine a colorless and odorless supreme poison that could silently merge with the Primordial Violet Qi.

Then, if Hongjun were to use the Primordial Violet Qi to harm his Mythical Incarnation, and secretly reclaim it, he would be incapacitated by this poison upon contact!

However, he had no inspiration regarding the art of poison refinement.

Although the Cauldron of Fortune was a treasure for refining pills, it could not independently produce the poison he desired.

"Forget it, I'll put it aside for now!"

Since there was no solution at the moment, Hongyun was not in a hurry to achieve success.

After all, time was on his side.

Meanwhile.

On the Solar Star.

"Haha, Big Brother, a heaven-sent opportunity has finally arrived!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi burst into Dijun's cave dwelling, laughing heartily.

He had calculated the Great Zhou Star Array and deduced that this was the time for the Thirty-Three Heavens to appear.

"Oh? Second Brother, I also sensed an anomaly in the Great Desolation's starry sky just now, but what exactly is it?"

Demon Emperor Dijun asked eagerly.

"It's the emergence of a vast and unprecedented celestial domain, which can serve as our Demon Clan's dojo!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi explained eloquently.

"Is that so? Then why aren't we hurrying to seize it?"

Demon Master Kunpeng, having heard the news, arrived with a face full of excitement.

"Don't rush, both of you. I have already calculated its location. We just need to gather the elite forces of the Demon Clan and follow me!"

"This opportunity will definitely allow our Demon Clan's strength to skyrocket, making us capable of sweeping aside the Witch Clan! Haha!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was filled with heroic spirit. This time, the Demon Clan's rise was in sight.

"Good, quickly gather our forces and set off!"

Demon Emperor Dijun made a decisive command, ordering the strong of the Demon Clan to assemble and head straight for the land of opportunity.

Several days later.

Dijun, Taiyi, and Kunpeng led the great demons of the Demon Clan, including Jimeng, Yingzhao, Baize, Goushe, and Feilian, along with countless elites, to the outer reaches of the Thirty-Three Heavens.

"Big Brother, this is where our Demon Clan's opportunity lies—the Thirty-Three Heavens!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's eyes shone brightly.

At this moment, the Thirty-Three Heavens had completely revealed their true form.

As everyone gazed from afar, they felt its boundless magnificence.

Even the lowest layer of heaven was far vaster than the Solar Star.

With this treasure land as the foundation of the Heavenly Court, ruling over the countless demons of the Great Desolation, why would the Demon Clan not prosper?

The eyes of the other demons were filled with fiery light.

The dawn of the Demon Clan's rise had appeared!

"Haha, what are you all standing around for? All demons, heed my command! Follow this Emperor into the Thirty-Three Heavens and seize this opportunity!"

Dijun gave the order and was the first to step inside.

Not long after, led by Dijun and Taiyi, everyone entered the first layer of the Thirty-Three Heavens.

As soon as they entered, a surge of majestic spiritual energy washed over them.

"It truly is a wondrous treasure land!"

Dijun's face showed satisfaction.

The spiritual energy here was so dense, far surpassing that of the Solar Star by countless times.

Even the Three Immortal Islands in the East Sea could not compare.

"Big Brother, how is this place? And this is only the first layer!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's tone carried a hint of pride.

"Indeed, Heaven favors our Demon Clan!"

Demon Master Kunpeng nodded repeatedly, full of praise.

The great demons behind him, Jimeng, Yingzhao, Baize, Goushe, and others, could not hide their excitement.

"Eh, look over there!"

Suddenly, Kunpeng pointed to a majestic coffin in the distance and loudly alerted everyone.

The coffin exuded a powerful aura, with golden light constantly flowing around it.
