After listening to Xuanming's introduction and sensing the aura of the Winter God's Dharma Body, Hong Yun fell into deep thought.

"So this... is actually a type of Heavenly Position as well?"

"Just with fewer restrictions?"

If that's the case, then it makes sense that Heaven's Will is scheming to have the Ancestral Shamans return to the world.

The Ancestral Shamans are full of drive now, but what if one day they become displeased, or during a great war with the Demon Race, they command their Dharma Bodies?

Wouldn't the Laws they are responsible for fall into chaos?

Only when the Ancestral Shamans dissipate and become part of the Primordial Era's world would Heaven's Will be truly stable!

For a moment, Hong Yun didn't know if the path he spoke of to the Ancestral Shamans was.

A blessing or a curse!

"Alas, if there's any possibility, I advise you to directly abandon this Dharma Body."

"Integrate it into the world!"

"If you do, this Winter God Dharma Body, which originally contained a portion of your soul, could allow you to coexist with the heavens and earth."

Upon hearing Hong Yun's words, Xuanming immediately retorted.

"How can that be?"

"More than half of the Power of Law I control is within this Dharma Body. If I integrate it into the world, won't my strength decrease significantly?"

Hong Yun glanced helplessly at Xuanming, then at Zhen Yuan Zi and Hou Tu.

They also seemed indifferent!

Indeed, why would they integrate their Dharma Bodies into the world when everything was going well?

Wasn't that like cutting off their own flesh?

"But life is always about trade-offs, constantly changing!"

Hong Yun thought of himself for a moment, questioning his own heart.

"Next, if Hongjun truly gives you the Primordial Violet Qi, can you make up your mind to abandon it?"

"Even if you know that the Primordial Violet Qi might just be the source of disaster for you?"

Hong Yun asked himself.

He found that he couldn't give a very firm answer either.

With that, he had nothing more to say about the Ancestral Shamans' choice.

If he couldn't do it himself, how could he presume to point fingers at others?

What you do not wish for yourself, do not do unto others!

"Alas, we can only take it one step at a time!"

Hong Yun thought to himself.

He then simply skirted around the topic and didn't bring it up again.

He changed the subject back to their departure, setting a specific time.

Before the third lecture was about to begin, not only Hong Yun and the others, but also many who had listened to the lectures at the Purple Cloud Palace throughout the Primordial Era began to set out.

The third lecture, everyone knew, was long-awaited.

The first two lectures proceeded as planned.

This third lecture would surely involve how to achieve Dao, how to attain Primordial Chaos, and how to obtain a Saint's position, right?

Thinking of this, everyone with ambitions for cultivation was eager to try.

The Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhun Ti, Fuxi and Nu Wa, and the Di Jun brothers all set off for the Chaos long ago.

Naturally, Hong Yun also departed earlier than before.

Moreover, Hong Yun's cultivation had advanced further.

His speed of traversing the Chaos had also improved!

While Zhen Yuan Zi was on his way, he spoke to Hong Yun about a Dao field he had found for him.

"This Dao field is perfectly situated between Wuzhuang Temple and the Witch Clan's tribe!"

"It's a place where earth veins converge, brimming with spiritual energy."

"And, most importantly, the moment I saw this place, the fiery clouds hung over the mountain peak, illuminating the entire mountain in a crimson hue!"

"I immediately felt that this place was extremely suited for Little Brother Hong Yun!"

Zhen Yuan Zi was within the halo Hong Yun had created.

He gestured excitedly, enthusiastically describing his previous discoveries.

His words even piqued the interest of Hou Tu and Xuanming, their eyes showing curiosity.

"After the lecture ends, we'll go take a look."

"Don't worry, it's absolutely possible! This place has a connection with you," Zhen Yuan Zi said.

He was practically thumping his chest to guarantee it for Hong Yun!

"Huh? We're here already?"

"You're even faster this time!"

Zhen Yuan Zi suddenly exclaimed in surprise, and the scene before them changed drastically.

Within the gray, murky chaos, the four of them were like meteors, shining with a faint red glow.

They passed through the chaos and entered the space where the Purple Cloud Palace was located.

The listeners who had arrived were continuously emerging from the rolling chaotic energy.

Mysterious lights of various colors, like long-tailed comets, intertwined around the Purple Cloud Palace.

"I didn't expect everyone to be so eager this time!"

Hong Yun dispelled the barrier he had erected outside to resist the chaotic energy and strolled through the void.

He looked at the figures shuttling past, many of them familiar faces!

The Purple Cloud Palace had not yet opened.

The area where the Purple Cloud Palace was located had opened up a vast space within the chaos.

Above, below, left, and right, it was completely empty.

Outside this space, the chaotic energy continued to roll, but it was kept at bay by an invisible force emanating from the Purple Cloud Palace.

Though close at hand, it couldn't erode the space within at all.

And this space, apart from a tiny palace in the very center, contained nothing else.

Hong Yun landed in the void and observed carefully.

Since the Purple Cloud Palace wasn't open yet, no matter how early they arrived, they had to wait here.

"This Purple Cloud Palace is a bit like an atomic nucleus, and we, constantly moving people, are like electrons moving within a giant space!"

Hong Yun suddenly had this thought.

He found it quite interesting!

Dao Ancestor Hong Jun had, within the chaos, created such a space.

Vast, yet devoid of all things.

Only the Purple Cloud Palace stood tall in the center!

"There's an oppressive feeling in this void!"

On his previous two visits, Hong Yun had arrived directly at the entrance of the Purple Cloud Palace, entered without delay, and left in a hurry.

It was only during this time, waiting for the Purple Cloud Palace to open, that he had a proper chance to observe.

His mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts!

Just then, a golden light suddenly shot over from afar!

It instantly transformed into two figures who landed before Hong Yun, Zhen Yuan Zi, and the other two.

Besides the Di Jun brothers, who else could it be?

Di Jun's face was filled with pleasant surprise as he smiled and said:
