Primordial Wilderness: I Am Hong Yun, and I Traded My Saint Position for a Wife at the Start, Part 13

As soon as Hongjun began to speak, he immediately stirred the Power of Law, and Daoist resonance filled the air!

The Zixiao Palace shone brilliantly amid the Chaos!

Endless Chaos Qi was drawn toward the Zixiao Palace, where Hongjun's Dao transformed it into boundless spiritual energy and the Power of Law!

Within the vast Zixiao Palace, flowers rained down from the heavens!

Golden Lotuses Springing from the Earth!

For a time, ethereal music drifted through the air, and Daoist resonance blossomed everywhere.

Hong Yun was already a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. As Hongjun explained the cultivation methods of the Heavenly Immortal realm, he began with the comprehension of the Power of Law.

Although Hong Yun couldn't possibly switch to cultivating the Immortal Dao, the underlying principles were the same.

This was the perfect opportunity to absorb the essence he could put to use.

He could reorganize and refine his own path of cultivation!

At the same time, he could use this opportunity to replenish his own magical power and absorb the Power of Law surging through the Zixiao Palace that resonated with him.

Most people were like Hong Yun!

For a time, all sorts of wondrous phenomena appeared in the Zixiao Palace, and some people's cultivation stirred up quite a commotion!

But the Zixiao Palace was inherently wondrous, so they didn't disturb those around them.

Hong Yun immersed himself in Hongjun's lecture, losing all sense of time.

Dao Ancestor Hong Jun sat atop the high platform, showing neither sorrow nor joy.

He continued to explain how to comprehend the Immortal Dao and cultivate in the Heavenly Immortal and True Immortal realms.

When he reached the final step of the True Immortal realm,

exactly three thousand years had passed!

Hongjun's voice came to a halt, and the phenomena caused by his lecture abruptly ceased!

It was quite some time before everyone gradually awoke from their cultivation and contemplation.

Only then did Hongjun say:

"That concludes today's lecture. You may return to your own abodes and cultivate."

"The Zixiao Palace will open again in a while. You may come back then!"

Everyone came to as if waking from a dream. They rose together and thanked him in unison:

"Thank you, Saint!"

When their voices fell silent, they looked up.

Hongjun had already vanished from the high platform!

The Zixiao Palace's gates were slowly pulled open by two young Daoist attendants.

Although they didn't feel tired—in fact, their cultivation had improved, leaving them more refreshed than ever—Hong Yun still couldn't help stretching!

Just then, he heard Zhurong's voice.

"Ugh, this Immortal Dao doesn't suit us. We've been sitting here for three thousand years!"

Hong Yun turned to look. Of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, all but Hou Tu wore looks of irritation.

"Right. The Ancestral Shamans cultivate by absorbing the Turbid Qi between Heaven and Earth!"

"Whereas the Immortal Dao relies on cultivating with Pure Qi!"

"No wonder they felt so uncomfortable."

It was like a teacher explaining study techniques to a class of top students back in Hong Yun's previous life.

The academic stars would naturally be all the more delighted the longer they listened!

But to the struggling students, it would sound like gibberish.

What's more, the Ancestral Shamans had their own inherited traditions. They were like athletes who had already set out on the path to becoming professional sportspeople!

For a class like this, they could only feel one of two things:

They didn't want to learn!

They couldn't learn!

Just then, another Ancestral Shaman spoke in a rough voice:

"I'm never coming back. We'd be better off cultivating on the Primordial Wilderness ourselves!"

"Our bloodline comes from Father God Pan Gu. Why should we listen to someone else and change our ways?"

The Ancestral Shamans couldn't help nodding.

They felt those words were absolutely right!

Only Hou Tu frowned slightly at their remarks.

After all, they hadn't even left the Zixiao Palace yet. Saying something like that here really wasn't appropriate.

Hong Yun could only smile wryly.

The system might have tied him and Hou Tu together through the karmic bond of Dao Companions, but he'd ended up with a whole pack of brothers-in-law like this.

He'd have his share of headaches in the future!

He turned to look at Xuanming beside him and saw that she, too, looked as frustrated as a struggling student.

"Will you come again next time?"

Xuanming froze.

"Huh?"

"Well... it's still ten thousand years away. I'll think about it then!"

Hong Yun smiled.

Right. Anyone who said that probably wouldn't come back.

"I'll think about it then" had much in common with "Definitely next time."

Hong Yun shook his head, then turned to meet Hou Tu's gaze.

They both wore wry smiles!

By then, quite a few people had already begun to leave.

Those who had grudges against each other especially hurried away. If they didn't want to start a fight upon meeting their enemies again, they had better leave quickly.

Hou Tu thought of how Hong Yun had given up his seat for her, and recalled the strange feeling she'd had earlier.

Her cheeks grew a little warm.

But she still wanted to find a chance to repay Hong Yun, so she asked:

"Would you like to return to the Primordial Wilderness with us, fellow Daoist?"

"That way, we can look out for each other in the Chaos!"

At Hou Tu's question, even Xuanming immediately fixed her gaze on Hong Yun.

She waited for his answer.

As she watched Hong Yun, a little anticipation rose in Xuanming's heart.

Of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, only she and Hou Tu were women; the rest were men.

The Witch Clan tempered their bodies and strengthened their bloodlines, and the laws arose naturally!

On top of that, body tempering and absorbing Turbid Qi affected them, so their temperaments weren't very gentle.

Hou Tu was the only one who was a little different, because she carried the Earth Law!

The earth was vast and boundless, with immeasurable strength. It nurtured all things and bore all things!

That was why it could lessen the effects of the Turbid Qi more than the others.

The rest, including Xuanming, were all violent by nature, ready to fight at the slightest disagreement.

It was as if they'd trained their muscles right into their brains. They lived by one word: "Charge!"

Although Xuanming was the same herself, that didn't stop her from finding her big, dumb, burly brothers annoying!

So she was quite happy to spend time with Hong Yun.

The strange and witty things he said from time to time always struck her as amusing.

Earlier, during the Dragon-Han Tribulation.
