Tongtian Furiously Insults Hongjun / Heavenly Punishment-The Big Black Dog Shatters Spiritual Mountain with a Hoe

You old bastard~

You old bastard~

That voice rang across the Primordial World!

Ahhh??

The saints were instantly stunned.

The gods trembled in terror!

Sect Master Tongtian had actually insulted Dao Ancestor Hongjun by calling him an old bastard!

My goodness!

Had Sect Master Tongtian been possessed?

Did he not want to live anymore?

Chapter 30: Tongtian Furiously Insults Hongjun

"You old bastard, you're unworthy of being the Dao Ancestor!"

A furious curse rang across the Primordial World!

The powerful figures of the Primordial World were deeply shaken.

Sect Master Tongtian actually dared to insult Dao Ancestor Hongjun!

"Hm? What did you say?" Dao Ancestor Hongjun stared at Sect Master Tongtian without the slightest expression.

"I said you're unworthy of being the Dao Ancestor! Unworthy of being the representative of the Heavenly Dao!"

Sect Master Tongtian was utterly fearless. He sneered, "The Heavenly Dao is impartial and selfless. Yet you, old bastard, play favorites, scheme, and plot! What face do you have to represent the supremacy of the Heavenly Dao?"

"Everything I have done follows the destiny of the Heavenly Dao. I act on Heaven's behalf. Where have I played favorites, schemed, or plotted?"

"Hahahaha, what a fine claim that everything follows the destiny of the Heavenly Dao and is done on Heaven's behalf."

Sect Master Tongtian laughed angrily. "My Interception Sect accepts all without discrimination, giving humans, demons, beasts, ghosts, and the countless races of the Primordial World a chance to cultivate and attain the Dao, a chance to fight for their own futures. It also made the Primordial World splendid and glorious, ushering it into a great age. Was that wrong?"

"With one sentence about the Primordial World being steeped in too much slaughter and needing the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, you caused my countless disciples to have their souls destroyed, never to be reincarnated. Do you dare say that was the destiny of the Heavenly Dao rather than because you feared my Interception Sect had grown too powerful?"

"Do you dare say you weren't deliberately targeting my Interception Sect?!"

Sect Master Tongtian roared his question, shaking the Primordial World.

The powerful figures of the Primordial World fell silent, secretly pondering. It seemed that he had a point.

To all living beings in the Primordial World, the saints stood high above them. Wanting to enter a saint's tutelage was practically impossible.

Which saint did not carefully pick and choose disciples, with exceedingly high standards?

Without an origin or a powerful background, one wanted to enter a saint's sect?

Impossible!

They could not even hope to enter the tutelage of the other great powers of the Primordial World!

But Sect Master Tongtian was different.

The Interception Sect accepted all without discrimination, allowing countless lifeforms of the Primordial World to become disciples of a saint, obtain opportunities for cultivation, and gain a chance to defy fate and change their destinies!

At that time, the Interception Sect was unrivaled in popularity, with a trend of all the lifeforms of the Primordial World joining it.

The Primordial World had indeed entered a great age in which a hundred flowers bloomed.

The Primordial World was splendid and glorious.

It was hard to say that the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation had not targeted the Interception Sect.

"Bullshit! When the moon is full, it begins to wane; when something reaches its peak, it begins to decline. As a dignified saint, don't you understand such a simple principle?"

Seeing how arrogant Sect Master Tongtian was, Sage Zhunti, who stood nearby, realized that he had a chance to show off in front of Hongjun. He immediately cursed at Tongtian, "The Interception Sect suffered the most casualties, so you think this wasn't the destiny of the Heavenly Dao? Then when you became a saint, why didn't you give up your position as a saint?"

"Zhunti, you shameless old bald donkey. I established a sect and became a saint. Did you give me my position as a saint?"

"The Primordial Purple Qi was given by our teacher!" Sage Zhunti sneered.

"Pangu, our Father God, created Heaven and Earth, bestowing immense grace and karma upon the Primordial World and the Heavenly Dao. The Primordial Purple Qi was given to the Three Pure Ones by the Heavenly Dao. It was the Heavenly Dao repaying its debt of gratitude and settling its karma!"

"It wasn't given by Dao Ancestor Hongjun!"

What?

"You!" Sage Zhunti was momentarily rendered speechless.

"What 'you'? You shameless old bald donkey! After the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, how many of the countless arhats, bodhisattvas, and the Eightfold Division of your Western Teachings weren't people you snatched from my Interception Sect? Wasn't Tathagata of your Buddhist Sect also the Great Disciple under my command, Duobao Daoist, whom you snatched away?"

"Hmph, don't spout nonsense. Their entering the Western Teachings was simply the result of their destined fate under the Heavenly Dao!" Sage Zhunti snorted, his skin as thick as a city wall.

"Destiny? Hahaha, you attribute all your schemes to destiny!"

Sect Master Tongtian laughed in fury, staring at Sage Zhunti with a chilling murderous aura. "If I kill you one day in the future, that too will be the destiny of the Heavenly Dao!"

"Tongtian, you bastard! Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Sage Zhunti cursed back.

"You're doomed to die!"

Sect Master Tongtian sneered. He suddenly raised the Immortal Slaying Sword and swung it with all his strength, hacking down at Sage Zhunti's head. He was determined to cut off that dog's head!

This sudden sword strike frightened Sage Zhunti.

Who could have imagined that Tongtian would dare to strike to kill even in front of Dao Ancestor Hongjun?

This Tongtian was truly arrogant!

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

What an unparalleled aura Sect Master Tongtian possessed!

Chapter 31: Heavenly Punishment—The Big Black Dog Shatters Spiritual Mountain with a Hoe

Right in front of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Sect Master Tongtian struck at Sage Zhunti with a head-on sword slash, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

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

"During the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, your Interception Sect fell apart, and you developed a deep-seated knot in your heart, filled with resentment and anger. I naturally know this. But the tribulation of the Heavenly Dao is decreed by Heaven, and no one may resist it. Even I, as the representative of the Heavenly Dao, cannot interfere."

Dao Ancestor Hongjun remained expressionless, his tone exceedingly cold.

"Tongtian fought with Grand Pure Sage, shattering the Primordial World and causing countless lifeforms to suffer. He also humiliated his teacher and defied the Heavenly Dao."

"I now confiscate the Immortal Slaying Four Swords. He will receive one strike of Heavenly Punishment and face ten thousand years of confinement in Golden Ao Island!"

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

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

They moved so quickly that even Tongtian had no time to resist.

"Heavenly Punishment."

Hongjun spoke coldly.

Heavenly Punishment!

The saints' expressions changed, and they retreated billions of miles away one after another.

High above the nine heavens, a huge black-and-white eye radiated a terrifying aura that made it difficult to breathe. Its black and white colors slowly turned purple.

That aura grew more and more terrifying. The living beings of the Primordial World prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling in fear and not daring even to breathe!

Even the saints billions of miles away felt the supreme pressure. They silently circulated their saintly power, quietly resisting the invisible pressure of the Heavenly Dao.

As for the pressure of the Heavenly Dao, Sect Master Tongtian, who stood directly at the center of the Eye of Heavenly Punishment's gaze, felt it most deeply.

Even while circulating his saintly cultivation technique with all his might and mobilizing every bit of his power, Sect Master Tongtian's body was still crushed by the invisible pressure until his bones creaked.

The Eye of Heavenly Punishment seemed intent on crushing him and forcing him to kneel!

But Sect Master Tongtian was unyielding. His hair whipped wildly as he clenched his steel teeth and glared up at the Eye of Heavenly Punishment. "Come!"

The void shattered like glass, breaking into fragments.

A purple bolt of lightning ten thousand zhang in diameter crashed down onto Sect Master Tongtian.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"

The lightning swallowed Sect Master Tongtian's body. Even the saints could not see clearly for a moment what was happening to Tongtian under the Heavenly Punishment.

Everyone could hear only Sect Master Tongtian's anguished cries.

Those cries of agony rang across the Primordial World.

After the Heavenly Punishment ended, Sect Master Tongtian's clothes were tattered, his skin and hair were charred black, and smoke rose from him. His primordial spirit had suffered severe damage, and his cultivation had fallen drastically!

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

Billions of years of cultivation vanished in the blink of an eye.

"The journey to the West shall begin anew. No one may defy it."

"For the next thousand years, the saints may not act."

After the Heavenly Punishment ended, Hongjun issued two edicts in succession before disappearing.

The Eye of Heavenly Punishment also vanished into concealment.

The invisible pressure of the Heavenly Dao disappeared without a trace, and in an instant, the skies cleared and the air brightened.

"We respectfully see off the Dao Ancestor!"

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

The mortal realm.
