Taiyi did not answer the question posed by Taiqing Laozi.

Instead, he glanced at the Sage Jieyin to the side like an old monk.

"Fellow Daoist Jieyin, would you like to test the divine powers of the Second God?"

Looking at the Sage Jieyin, who was neither a monk nor a Daoist, Taiyi said with a smile.

But that smile, in the eyes of the Sage Jieyin had just opened, was filled with endless terror.

I couldn't help but shiver.

It seems I'm reminded of the gloomy, hopeless people depicted in the Rivers and Mountains Map.

He shuddered and hurriedly said, "Only today do I realize that Fellow Taiyi possesses extraordinary abilities, far beyond the reach of us lesser Western Buddhas!"

Watching the Sage Jieyin shrink his eggs, Taiyi couldn't help but feel a little bored.

He wasn't quite done with the fight yet.

The clash Sages just now wasn't even a warm-up.

It's at most a rehearsal.

Who would have thought that these Six Sages of the Heavens would be more despicable than the last?

Aside from the Sage Zhunti, who acted recklessly without knowing the truth, these sages who clearly understood the situation were truly unwilling to suffer any loss.

There's also the Sage Goddess Nüwa, who never intervened and observed the Three Realms with detached indifference.

It is indeed more stable than Taiyi.

"Alas, Jieyin, to tell you the truth, I have truly taken a liking to the Twelfth-Grade Merit Golden Lotus beneath you."

"See? I now hold the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus and the Twelfth-Grade Reincarnation Purple Lotus in my hands. If I combine them with the Twelfth-Grade Merit Golden Lotus under you and the Twelfth-Grade Karma Fire Red Lotus Karmic Fire from the Ancestor Minghe, I can try to return to the source and fuse them to create the Twenty-Fourth Grade Azure Green Lotus of Creation."

Taiyi raised his hand and summoned another Reincarnation Purple Jade Lotus Platform, speaking to the Sage Jieyin.

Seeing that Taiyi had casually produced another top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure, the hearts of Sages trembled.

Especially the Goddess Nüwa, looking at the Reincarnation Purple Jade Lotus Platform, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and a sense of unease arose in her heart.

It was as if this Reincarnation Purple Jade Lotus Platform was also inextricably linked to him.

"Oh right, there's also the Coiled Dragon Crutch, the Three Pure Ones Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, and the Qingping Sword in your hands, Sanqing. If I could try to refine them back, maybe I could completely recreate the Thirty-Sixth Grade Creation Green Lotus."

After Taiyi finished speaking about Jieyin, he looked at the Three Pure Ones' hands again, his interest in his eyes undisguised.

Upon hearing Taiyi's blatant words about seizing the treasure, the Three Pure Ones' expressions changed drastically, and their scalps tingled with fear.

These three sacred treasures are crucial to their sainthood and the establishment of their religion. Without these treasures to protect the Dao, would their Sage Seat still be as secure as a rock?

The thought of this made the Three Pure Ones tremble all over.

They were all terrified by Taiyi's insane idea.

Don't come any closer!

"Oh, right, and Nüwa too. Don't glare at me. If we can gather Innate Supreme Treasure you each possess, perhaps I'll have a chance to re-condense the Thirty-Sixth-Grade World-Creation Green Lotus, becoming one with the Great God Pangu, to reopen the world and prove the Dao to its limit."

Taiyi turned to look at Goddess Nüwa, who was still embroiled in a dispute, and said...

Goddess Nüwa frowned and stared at Taiyi for a moment.

Her beautiful eyes held a hidden dissatisfaction.

The Empress hasn't even done anything to you yet, you scoundrel, and you're already eyeing my Red Embroidered Ball?

Open your dog eyes and see! Can you even catch the Red Embroidered Ball from the Empress?

Taiyi, however, did not mind at all.

At his current level, he can declare whatever he wants without having to suppress his nature.

When I was weak, I didn't dare to touch other people's good things because I couldn't beat them.

Now that we're powerful, we can simply take what we like and what we want to do.

If the other party is knowledgeable and sensible, they should offer it up voluntarily.

If they don't agree, then we'll have no choice but to bring the Chaos Clock and go to their door to demand it.

Taiyi very fair; he will offer something in exchange.

This is called "mutual consent".

Open the door, free trade!

The preferences of the strong are so simple and unpretentious.

At this moment, Laozi barely suppressed the urge to smash Taiyi's head, and bowed to ask:

"May I ask, Fellow Taiyi, is it through Three Corpses Severance, or... through Prove Dao with Force?!"

Upon hearing Laozi Tzu's words, Sages immediately fell into deep reverence.

Each of them stared intently at Taiyi with wide, Chaos Eyes cycle of Reincarnation and destruction.

They didn't want to miss a single subtle expression on Taiyi's face.

Facing the intense gazes of the Sages, Taiyi pondered for Taiyi moment, still considering the pros and cons of the matter.

Suddenly, a familiar sound echoed in my ears.

"Ding dong, it has been detected that the Three Pure Ones have asked you about the method of attaining enlightenment. At this special moment, please make the correct choice in accordance with the Homebody Choice System."

"Choose option one: immediately impart all your knowledge and methods of enlightenment, and make them public to spread throughout the Primordial Wilderness, so that everyone knows of the selflessness of the Venerable Taiyi of the Sun Star. You will receive the reward: the Innate Supreme Treasure Chaos Demon Hammer."

"Option Two: Remain indifferent and unresponsive. The ultimate goal is not only to conceal one's achievements and fame, but also to hide one's true strength. How can the nation's heroes be easily revealed? When they are revealed, blood will surely be shed! Reward: Western Plain Cloud Banner."

"Choose option three: tell Six Sages of the Heavens about the Heavenly Dao Hongjun's plans and schemes, the flaws of the Merit Proving Dao, the hidden secrets of the Three Corpses Severance Method, and the difficulty of the path to Prove Dao with Force. In return, you will gain the friendship of the Heavenly Saints and receive the following rewards: one Pangu Primordial Spirit Source, one Innate Great Dao of Emptiness Extinction Source, and one Innate Great Dao of Creation Source."

Looking at the three options provided by the system, Taiyi's heart stirred.

He began to carefully consider the pros and cons in his mind, and to weigh the pros and cons.

First of all, although this time the Homebody Choice System did not say that you should continue to stay on the Sun Star and not go out.

However, since the options provided by the Homebody Choice System are actually hidden within the system's so-called "correct choice," there must be a hidden option.

If Taiyi, he may lose something, and the distance from the system's expected value will become lower and lower.

It's obvious that the Homebody Choice System chose a real homebody, not some so-called good guy, philanthropist, or politician who exposed the conspiracy of the Heavenly Dao Hongjun.

After thinking about it, Taiyi had a vague understanding in his heart.

The first choice, selfless and altruistic, clearly doesn't fit the definition of a homebody.

They're being so selfless; are they trying to align themselves with the Heavenly Dao?

This does not fit the definition of a "homebody's" way of life.

Taiyi ignored it.

The third option, with its three huge rewards, greatly tempted Taiyi.

This is the Pangu Primordial Spirit Source!

If I attract and absorb it myself, wouldn't I be able to become the god Pangu?

He then used the refined Pangu Blood Essence that he had obtained before, and his physical body and spirit were transformed, all achieving the Pangu realm.

Perhaps we are not far from the path of proving the true mysteries of the Three Thousand Great Daos Laws?

Upon Taiyi's eyes immediately filled with fervor.
