Dispute

Zhou Yuan had no idea what Haotian and Yaochi were thinking.

He entered the Purple Firmament Palace.

At this time, many powerful figures of the immortal path had already arrived at the Dao Palace.

"Heavenly Venerable!"

"Grandmaster!"

"Dao Brother Taiyuan!"

Upon seeing Zhou Yuan enter, several powerful figures rose to greet him.

Zhou Yuan returned the greetings one by one.

Following his inexplicable senses, he arrived at the Purple Firmament Palace and sat down on the futon in the center of the second row.

The six prayer cushions in the first row naturally belong to the future Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao!

Zhou Yuan sat upright on the futon, closed his eyes slightly, and emptied his mind.

I don't know how much time passed.

Squeak!

The gates of the Purple Firmament Palace are closed.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

As the three-channel bell rang.

On the high platform of the Purple Firmament Palace, an old Daoist priest with white hair and beard, dressed in a purple Daoist robe and holding a bamboo staff, appeared silently.

It was none other than Daoist Hongjun!

The Grand Pure Daoist's brow twitched.

The teacher seemed to have become even more domineering.

He appeared without the slightest trace of it.

Zhou Yuan's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the old Daoist priest on the high platform.

This old Daoist priest...

It seems to be even more powerful than during the Battle of Kunlun.

'Could it be that the great rise of the Mystic Gate Immortal Path has bestowed upon this true founder of the Mystic Gate Immortal Path immeasurable blessings?'

Inside the Purple Firmament Palace, many powerful figures had their own thoughts.

But he didn't show it at all.

They all rose respectfully and bowed, saying:

"We have met our master."

"Greetings, teacher!"

"Greetings, Dao Ancestor!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun surveyed the powerful beings below, lingering on Zhou Yuan for a moment before nodding slightly to them.

There was even a hint of a smile in his tone:

"The Mystic Gate Immortal Path was established and founded, and since then, Mystic Gate Immortal Path has flourished Universe and Heavens."

"This old Daoist is here to thank you all!"

Everyone was awestruck.

A sense of inexplicable fear even rose in my heart.

This is the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Rather than the Heavenly Dao Hongjun.

Has the Dao Ancestor broken free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, truly aligning with it and governing the world?

All the great masters replied that they dared not accept such praise.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun paid no attention to their thoughts and continued speaking to himself:

"I have summoned you all to the Purple Firmament Palace today to give you two important instructions."

"Firstly, this concerns matters within our Mystic Gate Immortal Path."

"Within the Five Immortal Dao Lineages, the Xuanmen Sect) will have nine Mystic Gate Ancestor will be born to govern the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate."

"Seven of the nine patriarchs have now assumed their proper positions."

"These seven will then take charge of the Xuanmen on behalf of the old Daoist, and settle all matters concerning the Immortal Path!"

Boom!

Like a bolt from the blue, it blew the immortals apart, leaving them charred and raw.

Now, with the endorsement of the Dao Ancestor, it's a powerful symbol.

These seven people were all highly skilled in supernatural abilities.

Could it be that we are truly about to be bound by an additional Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate of the Xuanmen sect?

Even the members of the Demon Clan and Witch Clans looked grim.

In that case...

Even if one truly attains the position of overlord of the Primordial World, it's still hard to say who will ultimately rule this realm!

The Three Pure Daoists, Zhou Yuan, Nuwa, Jieyin, and Zhen Yuanzi had already risen and bowed, saying:

"Disciples have received the Imperial Decree!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun nodded in approval.

Just then...

The Grand Pure Daoist suddenly spoke:

"Reporting to the teacher."

"The affairs of the immortal path are numerous and complex. Although we, as the founders, take it upon ourselves to promote the immortal path, we do not have the energy to personally attend to every single matter."

He reached the level of Quasi-Saint Heavenly Venerate.

Perhaps a period of seclusion can last for tens of thousands of years, and a breakthrough can take several cycles.

The world can change in the blink of an eye.

Let them control the general direction of the immortal path.

If one were to truly attempt to determine matters of immortality, it would be contrary to common sense.

"Now that you have raised this question, do you have a solution?"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun asked calmly.

The Three Pure Daoists exchanged a glance, and it was Yuanshi Tianzun who smiled and said:

"Teacher is above."

"We wish to establish a Xuanmen Heavenly Court beneath the Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate Xuanmen, and appoint a Xuanmen Heavenly Emperor and Empress to wield the authority of the immortal path and manage all matters of the immortal path!"

"In our place, you shall sit in the central hub of the immortal path, govern all immortals, and rule the Primordial World!"

Before the words of the Yuanshi Tianzun had even finished, the words were still unfinished.

The gods' expressions changed drastically.

'What a despicable son!'

Di Jun's eyelids twitched, and he cursed inwardly.

He quickly stood up and objected:

"Dao Ancestor bear witness!"

"Our Demon Clan Heavenly Court has been established, Thirty-three Heavens Realms have been established."

"Although Di Jun is of meager virtue, he is still willing to take responsibility for all living beings in the world."

"If we follow Fellow Daoist Yuqing's suggestion, we should establish another Celestial Heavenly Court."

Thus, the two stand side by side.

"Isn't this a case of multiple departments issuing conflicting policies?"

"How can this be done?"

"I fear the Primordial World Demon Clan will not submit!"

The Primordial World Demon Clan refused to accept this.

Di Jun was equally unconvinced.

The Demon Clan race contributed significantly to the founding of the Mystic Gate Immortal Path.

The matter has just been resolved.

The Three Pure Daoists wanted to discard the donkey after it had served its purpose, but it wasn't that easy.

After Di Jun jumped out to object.

Di Jiang and East King Duke followed closely behind.

Joke.

If only a celestial Heavenly Court immortals could be created.

Isn't this just creating a competitor for yourself out of nowhere?

How could they stand idly by?

Thus, powerful figures from the Demon Clan race, the Witch Clan race, and the Purple Mansion Continent all voiced their opposition within the Purple Firmament Palace.

The scale and momentum were immense.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Haotian Boy, who was standing solemnly to the side, quickly rang the bell.

"Quiet!"

After the scene quieted down.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun then asked:

"Nuwa, Taiyuan, Jieyin, Zhen Yuanzi."

What do you four think?

In an instant, everyone in the hall turned their attention to these four people.

Empress Nuwa sighed:

"Now that there is Heavenly Court..."

"Fellow Di Jun has already assumed the position of Heavenly Emperor."

"Why bother establishing a Celestial Heavenly Court?"

"How about we replace the Demon Clan Heavenly Court Heavenly Court, and let it handle all the affairs of our Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate?!"

The Three Pure Daoists' eyelids twitched.

But they haven't spoken yet.

The Daoist Jieyin then spoke.

"Good, good!"

"What Fellow Daoist Nuwa said makes sense."

"But the Demon Clan Heavenly Court has too many limitations."

"If I were to handle all matters on behalf of the ancestral court, I fear it would be difficult to gain the respect of the people"

It would be impossible to explain this to the Witch Clan and the Purple Mansion Continent.

However, the Daoist Jieyin was also unwilling to associate with the Three Pure Daoists.

After all, their Mount Sumeru lineage has little influence within the ancestral court, so why bother taking the lead?

Even if a celestial Heavenly Court were truly established.

It's just that the Three Pure Daoists are in power.

Therefore, after the Daoist Jieyin finished speaking, he immediately fell silent.

Zhou Yuan noticed that Dao Ancestor Hongjun's gaze had fallen upon him.

He smiled slightly:

"Fellow Daoists, you have forgotten."

Even without establishing a Celestial Heavenly Court.

"Isn't there a fellow Daoist right before us who is perfectly suited to handle all matters of immortality on behalf of our Ancestral Court of Mystic Gate sect?"
