"..."

The system seemed to ignore Hong Yun's reply.

This...

Hong Yun was completely bewildered.

This system could play dumb now?

Aren't you the Great Dao Karma System?

The Great Dao!

Supreme, the culmination of all cultivation.

Hong Yun's heart stirred. He made the system fall into slumber again, simultaneously suppressing it with the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler to isolate its power.

"It seems this system isn't omnipotent after all..."

"It's even worried about being discovered by Hongjun!"

But earlier, the system had already activated within the Purple Cloud Palace.

Was it because he hadn't directly faced Hongjun?

"Lean on a mountain, the mountain falls; lean on the system, and it might run away when the time comes!"

"I still have to rely on myself!"

With that thought, Hong Yun made up his mind.

From now on, he absolutely could not be complacent just because he had a system.

He could use the system to gain benefits, but all benefits had to be promptly converted into his own strength.

All mighty powers, return to oneself!

This was the path Hong Yun should take.

At the same time, a faint thought flickered in Hong Yun's heart, which he immediately suppressed.

Coming back to his senses, he said to Zhen Yuan Zi:

"Brother, let's put the matter of the dojo aside for now!"

"I should first seize the time to completely refine the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler!"

Zhen Yuan Zi nodded.

"That's for the best. I see that if you don't hurry and refine the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, you won't feel at ease doing anything else!"

Zhen Yuan Zi's expression shifted.

"Ah, why don't I go find a good place for you as a dojo directly?"

As he spoke, Zhen Yuan Zi muttered to himself:

"Like you said, we can't stay with the Witch Clan forever!"

"Wuzhuang Temple could work, but Daoist Hou Tu might not be willing..."

Hong Yun couldn't help but interrupt Zhen Yuan Zi.

"Aren't you going to cultivate?"

Although Zhen Yuan Zi was saying this for his own good, it would ultimately delay Zhen Yuan Zi's time.

He himself would go into seclusion to cultivate, while letting Zhen Yuan Zi run errands for him.

This wasn't right either.

Zhen Yuan Zi, however, said:

"The path of cultivation hinges on comprehension. I don't have anything particularly worth cultivating in seclusion right now."

"Besides, after being out for so long, I also want to go back and take a look."

"Consider it a detour. If I find a suitable place, I'll claim it for you first."

Hong Yun understood when he heard this.

So Zhen Yuan Zi actually wanted to go back to Wuzhuang Temple!

No wonder he asked Hong Yun if he wanted to return to his dojo in the first place.

Tens of thousands of years, for us cultivators of the Primordial Era, is just a blink of an eye, isn't it?

You want to go back after such a short time!

No wonder you didn't show any impatience when I dragged you to hide out at Wuzhuang Temple.

Hong Yun grumbled inwardly, looking helplessly at Zhen Yuan Zi.

Zhen Yuan Zi felt a bit awkward when Hong Yun discovered his little scheme.

He chuckled sheepishly:

"It's just that I'm worried about my fruits..."

Hong Yun's throat involuntarily bobbed when Zhen Yuan Zi mentioned the Ginseng Fruit.

The Ginseng Fruit Tree only bore thirty fruits every ten thousand years. They had been out for nearly two cycles now, hadn't they?

Thinking of this, Hong Yun's smile brightened as he met Zhen Yuan Zi's gaze.

Before he could speak, Zhen Yuan Zi looked wary.

"Don't even think about it!"

"Eating these fruits now wouldn't do you much good anyway. It would only satisfy your craving and be a complete waste!"

Hong Yun smiled brilliantly.

"I'm not eating them. But hasn't Hou Tu tried them before?"

"With such a delicacy, shouldn't we let them have a taste?"

Zhen Yuan Zi snorted softly.

"Do I need you to tell me?"

"I've already thought of it. Not just Hou Tu, but Xuanming and the other Ancestral Shamans too!"

The two chatted for a while longer.

Zhen Yuan Zi then said with a serious expression, "You should cultivate peacefully with the Witch Clan. I will return to Wuzhuang Temple by myself."

"I will discuss the Dao with Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, and the other Ancestral Shamans. Not only will I create the Sleeve Universe divine ability you mentioned."

"I will also gain another divine ability, which is perfect for traveling!"

As he spoke, a spiritual light flew out from Zhen Yuan Zi and landed on Hong Yun.

Two divine abilities then appeared in Hong Yun's mind.

Sleeve Universe.

Horizon.

Both were divine abilities derived from the Law of Space!

"I'll be back quickly. I'll keep an eye out for a dojo for you on the way."

"It won't delay the final lecture, and I will definitely return to the Witch Clan to meet you before you depart!"

Hong Yun was about to say something but was interrupted by Zhen Yuan Zi raising his hand.

Zhen Yuan Zi smiled and continued, "Don't worry. I'm carrying the Earth Book. Can anyone really break it?"

That made sense!

With the Earth Book, there was no need to worry about Zhen Yuan Zi's safety.

Ordinary individuals would definitely be helpless against the Earth Book.

Those capable of breaking the Earth Book would also be unable to bear the karmic retribution of shattering the Primordial Era's earth veins!

Hong Yun felt relieved.

He smiled and said, "That sounds good!"

Hong Yun absorbed the two divine abilities Zhen Yuan Zi had transmitted into his mind, instantly understanding them.

"I'll study these two divine abilities as well and see if I can make any improvements."

After they reached an agreement, Zhen Yuan Zi put away the Earth Book.

"Since it won't take long, I won't go to bid farewell to the Ancestral Shamans."

"If they ask, you can tell them!"
