Red Cloud: In the Primordial Wilderness, I Trade My Saint Position for a Wife at the Start, Section 32
"What?"
He actually wanted me to find a woman among the Witch Clan too?
Zhen Yuan Zi didn't even think about it. He shook his head furiously.
"I don't want to!"
Dijiang wasn't ready to give up and asked again:
"There are plenty of Great Shamans in my Witch Clan. I think one of them would be a good match for you!"
Zhen Yuan Zi could only smile wryly and refuse again and again.
Neither of them mentioned Xuanming.
Although Xuanming acted as if she didn't care, those of us watching from the sidelines had long since decided she and Hong Yun were destined for each other.
Zhen Yuan Zi was extremely envious that Hong Yun had obtained such a supreme treasure as the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler!
But more than anything, he was happy for him!
Little Brother Hong Yun finally had a treasure to protect himself with!
Zhen Yuan Zi's Earth Book was an exceptional spiritual treasure, and it was connected to the ley lines of the Primordial Wilderness.
Its defensive power was boundless!
But Hong Yun—
The two of them had been companions for so long, yet he didn't even have a single handy magic treasure.
At this point, Zhen Yuan Zi still didn't know Hong Yun had already obtained the Profound Origin Water Control Banner.
Hong Yun hadn't had a chance to tell him, either.
How could he explain it?
That the treasure had crossed layer upon layer of time and space, flown into his soul, and claimed him as its master on its own?
So Zhen Yuan Zi was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Hong Yun smiled at Zhen Yuan Zi.
"Big Brother, are you envious?"
"If you are, I'll let you have a go with it!"
Zhen Yuan Zi snorted and laughed.
"What's there to envy? I'm just glad you won't have to borrow my Earth Book anymore!"
Hong Yun had gained the Ancestral Shamans' blood essence and the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, and he'd even won the beauty's heart.
Feeling thoroughly satisfied, he happily joined the Ancestral Shamans to enjoy the feast.
The Ancestral Shamans' blood essence and the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler weren't things he could refine in a short while.
Hong Yun wasn't in a hurry.
Instead, he opened his heart and enjoyed the lively moment!
Once the commotion died down, it was time for everyone to part ways.
This time, only Hong Yun, Zhen Yuan Zi, Houtu, and Xuanming would go to the Purple Cloud Palace.
After bidding farewell to the Ancestral Shamans, the four of them headed straight for the Ninth Heaven.
They passed through layer upon layer of astral winds and barriers. After a long journey, they finally reached the edge of the Chaos Membrane!
"Beyond the Chaos Membrane lies Chaos!"
"I'll lead the way this time!"
As Hong Yun spoke, a red halo spread out around him, enveloping all four of them.
It was as if they were surrounded by a red cloud!
They passed through the Chaos Membrane and entered Chaos.
Hong Yun now had no trouble at all dealing with the erosion of Chaos Qi.
Earth, Water, Fire, Wind shifted!
It blocked the erosive force of the Chaos Qi that came into contact with Hong Yun.
Following the Purple Cloud Palace's guidance, they cut through the Chaos Qi and pressed onward.
While Hong Yun and the others were making their way to the Purple Cloud Palace,
one figure after another was also heading from the Primordial Wilderness into Chaos.
The Three Pure Ones, the siblings Nu Wa and Fuxi, the Western duo Jieyin and Zhun Ti, and the other mighty cultivators.
Although the first lecture at the Purple Cloud Palace had covered stages of cultivation they'd already passed, it had still been greatly beneficial to them!
Listening to Hongjun explain those familiar stages again had been like reviewing and reinforcing what they already knew.
Many barriers they'd passed without realizing it, thanks to their bloodlines or innate abilities,
became clear when they went through them again. They understood both what happened and why!
So during the time everyone spent cultivating back in the Primordial Wilderness, their cultivation had advanced to a greater or lesser degree.
Except for those who had perished during that time, hardly anyone had given up on attending the lectures as the Ancestral Shamans had.
Everyone eagerly anticipated the second lecture!
At that moment, within the Sun Star,
two Golden Crows perched on a Fusang branch, bathing in True Sun Fire.
They absorbed strand after strand of True Sun Fire into their bodies!
The two Golden Crows suddenly opened their eyes and transformed into their Innate Dao Bodies.
They were the brothers Di Jun and Taiyi.
Di Jun looked even more imposing, while Taiyi seemed a little younger.
The two exchanged a glance, and Di Jun spoke:
"This time, when we attend the lecture, we must focus on comprehending the Power of Law!"
"The Saint teaches the Immortal Dao, which takes the Innate Dao Body as its foundation!"
"But how could you and I abandon our true forms and turn to cultivating the Immortal Dao?"
Taiyi nodded.
This was a problem faced by most of the three thousand Innate Gods when they listened to the lectures.
Should they abandon their own paths, transform into Innate Dao Bodies, and cultivate the Immortal Dao?
Or should they comprehend their own paths from the teachings?
Di Jun and Taiyi were naturally resolute. There was no way they would abandon their paths.
After returning to the Sun Star, they'd pondered the matter tirelessly,
hoping to comprehend a path suited to themselves.
But after all these years, they still had nothing to show for it, so they could only place their hopes in the next lecture.
The two set off at once.
The Sun Star hung in the Primordial Starry Sky, closer to the Chaos Membrane.
In an instant, they had left the Primordial Wilderness.
Taiyi brought out the Chaos Bell to shield them from the Chaos Qi, and the two hurried toward the Purple Cloud Palace without stopping for a moment.
Meanwhile, Hong Yun and the others continued their journey without pause.
They could only rely on their own senses to feel the passage of time.
No one knew how long it took before the Purple Cloud Palace appeared.
"We're here!"
Zhen Yuan Zi opened his eyes and exclaimed excitedly.
After such a long journey through Chaos, everything had been gray and hazy.
There was no sense of time or space.
The feeling had left them terribly bored, so they'd kept their eyes closed and cultivated.
Now that they had finally spotted the Purple Cloud Palace, Zhen Yuan Zi couldn't help standing up and looking ahead.
