Primordial Era: Mistaking the Jade Emperor for My Son at the Start

Old geezer~

Old geezer~

This voice echoed throughout the Primordial Era continent!

Ahhh??

The Sages were instantly stunned.

The gods trembled in fear!

Sect Master Tongtian actually insulted Dao Ancestor Hongjun as an old geezer!

My heavens!

Has Sect Master Tongtian been possessed?

Is he tired of living?

Chapter 30: Tongtian Curses Hongjun

"Old geezer, you are unworthy of being the Dao Ancestor!"

A furious curse echoed through the Primordial Era!

The great powers were greatly shaken.

Sect Master Tongtian actually dared to insult Dao Ancestor Hongjun!

"Hmm? What did you say?" Dao Ancestor Hongjun stared at Sect Master Tongtian expressionlessly.

"I said you are unworthy of being the Dao Ancestor! Unworthy of being the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao!"

Sect Master Tongtian, completely fearless, sneered, "The Heavenly Dao is impartial, the Heavenly Dao is selfless. But you, old geezer, are biased, scheming, and manipulative! What face do you have to represent the supreme Heavenly Dao?"

"Everything I do is the will of the Heavenly Dao, acting on behalf of Heaven. How can it be called biased, scheming, or manipulative?"

"Hahahaha, well said, 'it's all the will of the Heavenly Dao, acting on behalf of Heaven'."

Sect Master Tongtian laughed furiously, "My Interception Teachings accept all disciples regardless of their background. Humans, demons, beasts, ghosts, and the myriad races of the Primordial Era all have the opportunity to cultivate the Dao, the chance to fight for themselves, and it has brought brilliance and splendor to the Primordial Era, ushering in a great era. Is this wrong?"

"With your single sentence that the Primordial Era continent is too filled with killing, and thus the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation must occur, you have caused my countless disciples' souls to be annihilated and never reincarnated. Do you dare say this is the will of the Heavenly Dao, and not that you fear my Interception Teachings becoming too powerful?"

"Do you dare say this wasn't deliberately targeting my Interception Teachings?!"

Sect Master Tongtian questioned furiously! Shaking the Primordial Era.

The great powers of the Primordial Era remained silent, pondering in their hearts. It seemed to make some sense.

To the beings of the Primordial Era, Sages were aloof. It was almost impossible to become a disciple of a Sage.

Which Sage was not extremely picky and discerning when it came to accepting disciples?

Without roots, without background, you want to enter a Sage's sect?

Impossible!

You couldn't even get into the discipleship of other great powers in the Primordial Era!

But Sect Master Tongtian was different.

The Interception Teachings accepted all disciples regardless of their background, allowing countless beings in the Primordial Era to become disciples of a Sage, gain opportunities for cultivation, and the chance to defy fate!

At that time, the Interception Teachings were unrivaled, with a momentum of all beings in the Primordial Era joining them.

The Primordial Era continent had indeed entered an era of flourishing prosperity.

The Primordial Era continent was brilliant and glorious.

It was hard to say that the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation did not have factors targeting the Interception Teachings.

"Nonsense! When the moon is full, it wanes; when things reach their peak, they decline. Do you, a dignified Sage, not understand this point?"

Seeing Sect Master Tongtian's arrogance, Sage Zhunti, who was nearby, saw an opportunity to perform in front of Hongjun and cursed Tongtian furiously, "The Interception Teachings suffered the most casualties, and you believe this is not the will of the Heavenly Dao? Then when you became a Sage, why didn't you give up your Sage position?"

"Zhunti, you old bald donkey, I established my sect and became a Sage. Was the Sage position given to me by you?"

"The Primordial Violet Qi was given by Teacher!" Sage Zhunti sneered.

"Father God Pangu created heaven and earth, bestowing great kindness and karma upon the Primordial Era and the Heavenly Dao. The Primordial Violet Qi was given to us Three Pure Ones by the Heavenly Dao. It was the Heavenly Dao repaying kindness and resolving karma!"

"It was not given by Dao Ancestor Hongjun!"

What!

"You!" Sage Zhunti was momentarily speechless.

"What do you mean 'you', you shameless old bald donkey! After the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, weren't your Western Teachings' countless Arhats, Bodhisattvas, and the eight divisions of heavenly beings all snatched from my Interception Teachings' disciples?! And your Buddhist Tathagata, wasn't he also snatching my chief disciple, Daoist Duobao?!"

"Hmph, don't talk nonsense. Their joining the Western Teachings was due to the will of the Heavenly Dao!" Sage Zhunti snorted coldly, his face as thick as a city wall.

"The will of Heaven, hahaha, all your schemes are attributed to the will of Heaven!"

Sect Master Tongtian laughed furiously, his killing intent chilling as he stared at Sage Zhunti, "When the time comes in the future and I kill you, it will also be due to the will of the Heavenly Dao!"

"Tongtian, you b*stard! Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Sage Zhunti retorted.

"You will die!"

Sect Master Tongtian sneered, then fiercely raised the Immortal Slaying Sword and unleashed a full-power strike, aiming straight for Sage Zhunti's head, vowing to chop it off!

This sudden sword strike startled Sage Zhunti.

Who could have imagined that he would dare to attack with killing intent even in front of Dao Ancestor Hongjun!

This Tongtian is truly arrogant!

Grand Pure Sage, the Jade Emperor, and others were also shocked.

What an incomparably powerful Tongtian Sage!

Chapter 31: Heavenly Punishment, a Great Black Dog Shatters Spiritual Mountain with a Single Hoe

In the presence of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Sect Master Tongtian swung his sword at Sage Zhunti, stunning everyone.

"Presumptuous!" Dao Ancestor Hongjun roared. Borrowing the power of the Heavenly Dao, he easily blocked Sect Master Tongtian and pushed him millions of miles away.

"During the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, your Interception Teachings fell apart, leaving you with lingering resentment and anger. I naturally know this. However, the Heavenly Dao tribulation is predetermined, and no one is allowed to disobey it. Even I, as the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao, cannot interfere."

Hongjun Dao Ancestor remained expressionless, his tone extremely cold.

"Tongtian fought with Grand Pure Sage, shattering the Primordial Era continent and causing the suffering of countless lives. He also insulted his elders and defied the Heavenly Dao."

"Now, I confiscate the Immortal Slaying Four Swords, you shall receive one strike of Heavenly Punishment, and you will meditate on Golden Ao Island for a thousand years!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun indifferently listed Sect Master Tongtian's crimes and handed down his punishment.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hongjun beckoned, and the Immortal Slaying Sword, Demon Slaying Sword, and the other Immortal Slaying Four Swords broke free from Sect Master Tongtian's grasp and were taken into Hongjun's sleeve.

The speed was so fast that Tongtian didn't even have time to resist.

"Heavenly Punishment."

Hongjun said coldly.

Heavenly Punishment!

The expressions of the Sages changed, and they all retreated millions of miles away.

A giant black and white eye in the Nine Heavens emitted a suffocating, terrifying aura. The black and white slowly turned purple.

The aura grew increasingly terrifying. All beings in the Primordial Era prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling, not daring to even breathe!

Even the Sages, far away, felt the supreme pressure and silently circulated their Sage power, quietly resisting this invisible Heavenly Dao pressure.

Sect Master Tongtian, located at the center of the Eye of Heavenly Punishment's gaze, felt the Heavenly Dao pressure even more intensely.

Even when circulating his Sage cultivation technique with all his might and mobilizing all his strength, Sect Master Tongtian's bones creaked under the invisible pressure.

The Eye of Heavenly Punishment seemed intent on crushing him, forcing him to his knees!

But Sect Master Tongtian was resolute. His hair flew wildly, he gritted his teeth, and glared up at the Eye of Heavenly Punishment, "Come on!"

The void shattered like glass.

A purple lightning bolt, ten thousand zhang in diameter, struck Sect Master Tongtian.

"Ahhhhhhhh!"

The lightning engulfed Sect Master Tongtian's body. Even the Sages could not clearly see Tongtian, who was suffering Heavenly Punishment, for a moment.

They could only hear Tongtian's pained screams.

These screams echoed throughout the Primordial Era.

After the Heavenly Punishment ended, Sect Master Tongtian was in tatters, his skin charred black, his hair burnt, still smoking. His primordial spirit was greatly damaged, and his cultivation was severely reduced!

The Mid Sage Stage realm he had just recovered was directly knocked down to the first level of the Early Sage Stage.

Billions of years of cultivation were wiped out in the blink of an eye.

"Journey to the West restarts. Do not disobey."

"Within a thousand years, Sages are forbidden from taking action."

After the Heavenly Punishment ended, Hongjun issued two decrees before disappearing.

The Eye of Heavenly Punishment also vanished.

The invisible Heavenly Dao pressure instantly disappeared without a trace, and the sky cleared.

"We bid farewell to the Dao Ancestor!"

Grand Pure Sage, Saintess Nuwa, Zhunti, Jieyin, and the other Sages and heavenly gods all bowed in salute.

The mortal realm.
