"Master!"

"Th-This is the might of a Hongmeng Spirit Treasure?"

"Can it be suppressed?"

Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian hurriedly moved behind Hongjun.

Though Jieyin was a little slower, he still came over.

Their hearts were filled with apprehension toward the might of a Hongmeng treasure. But with the intent of Heavenly Dao surging around Hongjun, they had no choice but to step forward.

Hongjun's expression turned extremely grave. Heavenly Dao Power churned endlessly around him, as though he were weighing whether to make a move.

"Hum..."

At that moment, astonishing power suddenly emerged from within the space crack, manifesting the phantoms of Yuan Feng and Beast Emperor Shen Ni.

The Yuan Feng Phantom took a step forward and coldly looked at Hongjun and the Four Saints.

"Hongjun, as the Dao Ancestor, you do not maintain peace across the four corners of Hong Huang, yet you dared attack This Palace's son. You truly have no shame!"

"Today, with the Dao Lord's permission, This Palace shall borrow a trace of the Hongmeng Palace's power to battle you!"

As her voice fell, Divine Marks rapidly surged across the Hongmeng Palace. A terrifying Origin of Fire burst forth, even more dreadful than the Chaos Flame from before.

"Humph!"

"This Emperor had dealings with you, Hongjun, back in those days!"

"I never expected that you would fall so low as to become a Heavenly Dao puppet. How lamentable!"

"However, it seems you have provoked the wrong people this time!"

"Since you wish to act, then come at us together!"

"Perfect. This Emperor will let you witness the might of the Hongmeng Palace!"

The Shenni Phantom also stepped forward, emitting Fierce Fiendish Qi that shook all of Hong Huang.

"Shenni!"

"Yuan Feng!"

"Do not think that we fear you merely because you have borrowed the might of a Hongmeng Spirit Treasure!"

"If you dare show further disrespect to Master or Heavenly Dao, we will go all out and drive you from Hong Huang!"

"..."

The Four Saints stepped forward one after another, shouting coldly.

Shenni and Yuan Feng had provoked Hongjun and Heavenly Dao right before their eyes. They could not pretend not to see it.

"Is that so?"

"Though the Hongmeng Palace is a Hongmeng Spirit Treasure and ranks behind the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking, in terms of offensive power alone, it is not much weaker than a Hongmeng Supreme Treasure."

"Today, This Emperor would like to see whether you truly possess the ability to withstand the might of the Hongmeng Palace!"

Shenni coldly snorted again, then slightly cupped his hands toward the Hongmeng Palace Phantom in salute.

The Hongmeng Palace Phantom swiftly solidified. Terrifying Great Dao Origin surged from it, affecting every trace of Power of Great Dao, Power of Law, and even spiritual power within and beyond Hong Huang.

For a moment, an inexplicable panic arose in the hearts of all living beings among the Myriad Races of Hong Huang. The power of every living being seemed faintly beyond their own control.

Even the top Quasi-Saints, the Four Saints, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun trembled slightly.

The Heavenly Dao Power that had been rapidly surging around Hongjun suddenly stalled, its might seeming to be suppressed as well.

At that moment, Jieyin could no longer hold back and secretly transmitted his voice to Hongjun. "Master, this treasure exceeds all imagination. We cannot contend with it!"

"Master, this treasure is far too terrifying. Once we fight, Hong Huang will surely be unable to endure it!"

"Master..."

Laozi and Yuanshi also sensed a hint of danger and spoke softly to Hongjun.

Only Tongtian had already summoned the Immortal Slaying Four Swords and deployed the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, seemingly prepared to fight alongside Hongjun.

Hearing Jieyin, Laozi, and Yuanshi, Hongjun's expression darkened. He abruptly turned his head and first glanced at Jieyin.

That glance struck Jieyin as though he had suffered a heavy blow. He was sent flying, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

At the same time, Laozi and Yuanshi were suppressed by Heavenly Dao Power and involuntarily bent toward Hongjun.

After suppressing the Saints, the might of Heavenly Dao trembled rapidly and actually began to conceal itself bit by bit.

Hongjun then took a step forward and looked toward Shenni and Yuan Feng in the sky.

"Shenni, Yuan Feng!"

"This Dao Ancestor was acting under the will of Heavenly Dao. I intended to accept Kong Xuan as a disciple and impart supreme Dao techniques to him!"

"Though I used some minor means, I did not injure him!"

"How about we let this matter end here?"

"..."

As he spoke, a faint smile actually appeared on Hongjun's face.

At that moment, Tongtian, standing behind Hongjun, could not help but freeze. "Master..."

"Silence!"

"Why have you not withdrawn at once?"

Hongjun shouted coldly, cutting off Tongtian's words.

Tongtian was somewhat puzzled and wanted to speak again, but Laozi and Yuanshi stopped him at the same time.

"We obey Master's Edict. We shall depart at once!"

"..."

Laozi and Yuanshi hurriedly spoke, then pulled Tongtian toward Kunlun Mountain.

Elsewhere, Jieyin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, cupped his hands toward Hongjun, and swiftly retreated toward Mount Sumeru.

"Humph!"

"It is not impossible to let the matter go!"

"Once this cultivation and combat power ranking concludes, send one Chaos-grade treasure to the Hongmeng Palace!"

Before Shenni could speak, the Hongmeng Palace trembled slightly, and an exceedingly distant, ethereal, mysterious voice rang out.

Hongjun's heart tightened slightly. He wanted to probe the cultivation of the voice's owner, but the might of the Hongmeng Palace blocked him, nearly causing him to suffer backlash.

"Hum..."

"The Saints acted rashly and should agree to this matter!"

"Now that the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking's cultivation and combat power rankings have completely concluded, one Chaos-grade treasure shall be presented!"

Before Hongjun could speak, the will of Heavenly Dao, which was about to vanish completely, trembled slightly and issued a Heavenly Dao decree.

As a part of Heavenly Dao, Hongjun could only nod slightly. He had no other choice.

Upon hearing the Heavenly Dao decree and seeing Hongjun nod,

the phantoms of Shenni and Yuan Feng exchanged glances before gradually fading away.

The terrifying Hongmeng Palace Phantom swiftly returned to the space crack.

At that moment, the terrifying pressure throughout all of Hong Huang instantly dissipated.

At this time, the experts of the Myriad Races of Hong Huang were all stunned.

The Saints had retreated. Could it be that the Saints had backed down?

The Dao Ancestor had actually smiled and accepted the other side's conditions. Could it be that the Dao Ancestor had backed down too?

The issue was that even Heavenly Dao Power had retreated. Could it be that Heavenly Dao Power had backed down as well?

Naturally, none of them dared voice such thoughts, fearing that the Dao Ancestor would sense them and send down punishment.

They did not possess Hongmeng-grade treasures to protect themselves, nor did they have the qualifications to contend against the Saints or the Dao Ancestor.

Tongtian, who was about to return to Kunlun Mountain, sensed the outcome of this matter. His expression became exceedingly gloomy, and anger continually surged from his body.

"Third Brother, do not act rashly!"

"This was the will of Heavenly Dao. My brothers and I must not defy it!"

Seeing this, Laozi hurriedly tried to persuade Tongtian, afraid that his Third Brother's temper would flare up and bring about some disaster.

Just as Tongtian was about to vent his frustration, a phantom of an already-bloomed Flower of Grand Luo suddenly appeared where the Sect of Interception disciples were gathered on Kunlun Mountain, faintly illuminating Hong Huang.

"Hmm?"

"An Eighteen-grade Great Luo Flower?"

"Could it be one of This Venerable's disciples?"

"Could it be Yunxiao?"

The anger on Tongtian's face paused, replaced by a trace of delight. He hurriedly headed toward Kunlun Mountain.
