The Realm of Hongjun, Primordial Violet Qi

Hongjun was the earliest Innate Deities to be born since the creation of the Primordial World. In the earliest period, he was unknown and not as famous as Kunwu and others.

But he was absolutely the most talented deity in the history of the Primordial Wilderness. Yang Mei was able to create the Divine Dao, which was only possible because it was built on the shoulders of all the deities.

After all, in the beginning of time, all the gods cultivated the Divine Dao and the Great Dao Rules, and Yang Mei was merely the one who had mastered them all.

However, Hongjun was able to create the Immortal Dao based on the Divine Dao, thus laying the foundation for the Hun Yuan and becoming the first Hunyuan Saint since the creation of the Primordial World.

After Hongjun attained Attain Sainthood, his cultivation advanced even more rapidly. Preaching the Dao his teachings throughout the Primordial Wilderness world, leading almost the entire world to cultivate the Immortal Dao.

Before Hongjun merged with the Dao, he possessed nine-tenths of the Primordial Wilderness's fortune, and his word could determine the fate of the world. In particular, his status Head of Male Immortals of Donghua was something that could be decided with just a word from him.

Later, Hongjun merged with the Dao, distributing spiritual treasures to all people in the world, and spreading his fortune throughout the universe, returning it to everyone.

Therefore, Donghua's feelings towards Hongjun were complicated. In his master's eyes, Hongjun was very qualified.

As far as Dao Ancestor was concerned, Donghua was even less qualified to comment.

In terms of talent and aptitude, he is far inferior.

But the only thing Donghua couldn't understand was Hongjun's pursuit.

From any perspective, Hongjun seemed to be without desires, selfless, and in accordance with the Heavenly Dao.

But Donghua knew very well that no one could truly achieve this. If one were truly without desires or wants, then one would not be human, but the Dao.

So what are Hongjun's plans? What are his pursuits? What does he want?

Or rather, what in the Primordial Wilderness now does Hongjun still desire?

In fact, Donghua had never thought about this question before, because the difference in their realms was too great, and thinking about it would be useless.

What truly made him begin to explore this question was the appearance of Yaoji. The Heavenly Eye on Yaoji's body, which was formed from Fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation, contained a portion of the Heavenly Dao Power.

From that moment on, Donghua began to study Hongjun in a truly meaningful way.

The first step is to figure out his cultivation level!

Donghua originally thought that Hongjun would appear to find him when he comprehended the Innate Five Primes or when the Time-Space Demon God appeared.

But Hongjun never appeared, which led to this confrontation with the world-destroying divine lightning.

He dared to do this for two reasons: first, he believed that Hongjun would definitely show himself; and second, he was confident that he could defeat the World-Destroying Divine Thunder.

Donghua has always been a person who is afraid of death; he would never joke about his own life.

Fortunately, his gamble paid off. Hongjun did appear and offered a solution that was no different from what he had anticipated.

The only difference is that Hongjun involved the West Queen Mother.

Besides that, his biggest gain was figuring out Hongjun's cultivation level: the seventh level of the Hun Yuan, not yet having broken through to the eighth level.

That's enough!

Because that's his motivation going forward!

In the Primordial Wilderness, neither the Three Pure Ones nor Nuwa can affect him or pose any threat.

With this breakthrough in cultivation, he completely widened the gap between himself and others, especially after he comprehended the Innate Five Primes, which was a qualitative change.

Hongjun looked at Donghua with a complicated expression. From the beginning, he believed that Donghua's greatest achievement was only that of a Peak Quasi-Saint.

However, each time he surpassed his understanding, he eventually defeated the Witch and Demon Races, established the supreme Heavenly Court, ruled the Three Realms, and governed the Heaven, Earth, and Human Daos.

Now, he has even taken the lead in breaking through to the Five Heavens of Hun Yuan Primordial Chaos Realm!

Hongjun believed that his judgment was never wrong, but unexpected things happened repeatedly with Donghua.

Hongjun was very clever; he could tell at a glance from today's events that this was Donghua testing him.

He also knew that this was just the beginning, and there would be more and more tests to come.

This is not something that can be determined by emotions or status, but rather by one's cultivation level and path in life.

Anyone whose cultivation reaches the Donghua realm must understand his purpose, as no one wants an unknown entity above them.

Today it is Donghua, and in the future there will be the Three Pure Ones Nuwa, Houtu, Houtu, the Western Two Saints, and many more who will follow.

This is an irreconcilable conflict!

Because of their existence, they have blocked the path of many who came after them, and no one wants to have an "Taishang" above them.

For a moment, neither of them spoke. The world-destroying thunderclouds above the nine heavens gradually formed, and within the thunder, the Heavenly Punishment Eye gradually took shape.

Seeing this, Hongjun sighed and broke the silence, saying to Donghua, "If you want Taizhen to control the power of divine punishment for all living beings, then you must control the world-destroying divine thunder, otherwise it will have no effect on the Hunyuan Saint!"

"Therefore, the appearance of this world-destroying divine lightning is also an opportunity for her. It depends on whether you can seize it and turn danger into opportunity!"

Hearing Hongjun's calm voice, Donghua knew that this test was over, and neither of them was willing to make things clear now.

After all, the timing isn't right yet.

"Master, I understand what you're saying, but with my current cultivation level, I simply cannot protect my junior sister as she enters the lightning."

Hongjun pointed, and the Jade Plate of Creation appeared before Donghua's eyes. He then said, "The Jade Plate of Creation is derived from the Heavenly Dao. With this treasure, you can protect Taizhen as she enters the Thunder Clouds, and it will also increase your chances of success!"

Donghua casually accepted the Jade Plate of Creation, his eyes instantly lighting up with joy. He quickly said to Hongjun, "Thank you so much, Master! You've been so kind to me; I have no way to repay you!"

Hongjun snorted coldly, glared at Donghua, and said unappreciatively, "The greatest reward you can give me is to stop causing trouble and focus on improving your cultivation."

Donghua laughed to cover his embarrassment. He really had to admit, Old Man Hongjun was too good to him. Every time he got into trouble, it was Hongjun who would come out and clean up his mess.

However, Hongjun's words also startled Donghua.

Every time he spoke with someone, Hongjun would remind himself to cultivate diligently, and he did the same with the Three Pure Ones and others.

"Does this mean that Hongjun's plan requires our help? And the higher our cultivation level, the better?"

Donghua had a question mark in his mind, but he couldn't think about it too much at the moment. The world-destroying thundercloud was about to take shape, and he didn't have much time left.

Donghua immediately contacted Taizhen and then explained the truth of the matter.

"Junior sister, I originally wanted you to break through to the Quasi-Saint realm a little later, to accumulate more experience and wait for the Heavenly Rules to be more perfect, but now it seems that it's too late."

"The appearance of the World-Destroying Divine Lightning is also an opportunity for you. There is the power of the Heavenly Dao's origin in that lightning eye. Originally, I planned to enter it and shatter it."

"It now seems that you can use the Jade Plate of Creation to absorb a portion of the power of the Heavenly Dao's origin, cultivate the World-Destroying Power, control the Dao of Heavenly Punishment, and thus break through to the Quasi-Saint realm."

Upon hearing Donghua's words, West Queen Mother instantly understood that going at her own expense was an opportunity for her, but it was also very dangerous. If she was not careful, she would perish under the world-destroying divine lightning.

But now that Donghua and the Jade Plate of Creation are with her, her chances of success are indeed very high, and this risk is worth taking!

The West Queen Mother looked up at the thunderclouds in the heavens and said firmly:

"Brother, rest assured, I won't hold you back this time. You've always been the one planning for me. If I can't even do this much, how can I be the Empress? How can I rule over all the female immortals in the world?"

"Brother, don't forget, I am the West Queen Mother, Innate Deities, an ancient Great God, Head of Female Immortals!"

Donghua sighed. He realized that he had indeed been too protective of the West Queen Mother, forgetting her true identity. As her Dao Companion, he shouldn't just protect her blindly, but also support her.

The West Queen Mother was never his subordinate, but his Dao Companion, and even his best partner in the past.

Whether in the ancient times or later when the demon race attacked the Purple Mansion, the West Queen Mother always firmly supported him and faced danger with him.

Later, he even incorporated the forces of West Kunlun into the Purple Mansion. This support was worthy of their status as Dao Companion.

"Good!"

Let's move forward together with determination!

After Donghua finished speaking, he summoned the Jade Plate of Creation and blessed the West Queen Mother. Then, with a flick of his finger, the Heavenly Emperor Sword cleaved through space and time like a sharp blade, and the Emperor Dao Power swept across the Sky Vault and soared straight to the heavens.

Wherever the sword light passed, it tore through the thunderclouds, opening a path that led to the Heavenly Punishment Eye.

Donghua took the West Queen Mother's hand and flew directly into the Heavenly Punishment Eye along the path that had been cleared.

As soon as the two entered the Heavenly Punishment Eye, they were enveloped by endless Heavenly Dao Power transformed into the Heavenly Dao Rule Power, which formed golden chains that attacked the two.

Each chain attack reached the strength of the sixth level of the Primordial Chaos Hun Yuan, and some were even at the seventh level. A slight mistake would result in being reduced to nothing.

At this moment, Donghua unleashed his full power, Hunyuan Taiji and the power of Heavenly Dao Karma Position, and only then could he manage to withstand it.

After a series of attacks, Donghua immediately summoned the Chaos Bell to protect the two of them.

"Junior sister, activate your Eye of Heavenly Tribulation and find the source of the World-Destroying Divine Lightning."

While Donghua was activating the Chaos Bell to defend against the attack, he also needed to protect the West Queen Mother. Even with the protection of the Jade Plate of Creation, he was not absolutely safe.

Enveloped by the Jade Plate of Creation, the West Queen Mother seized the opportunity and instantly mobilized the power of the Three Thousand Great Daos. The Eye of Heavenly Tribulation between her brows left her body and stood in the Sky Vault. Boundless power began to gather and instantly split into nine gazes.

"Nine Heavens Tribulation Light!"

Nine different heavenly tribulations were unleashed, including the light of Lightning Tribulation Light, Fire Tribulation Light, Wind Tribulation Light, and Water Tribulation Light, among others.

With the blessing of the Jade Plate of Creation, the nine beams of tribulation light broke through the obstruction of the world-destroying divine lightning and directly struck the Heavenly Punishment Eye, instantly unleashing endless lightning.

With the attack of the West Queen Mother, the heavens were enraged!

Countless bolts of world-destroying divine lightning struck down in succession.

Upon seeing this, the West Queen Mother channeled the Great Dao Power and imbued the Kunlun Mirror with it, causing a majestic power to emanate from it.

The Kunlun Mirror emitted Five-Colored Brilliant Light, illuminating the Myriad Worlds. At that moment, the sky cleared!

The power of spacetime, combined with the power of the heavenly tribulation, surged forth once more, and the Eye of Heavenly Tribulation between his brows opened.

A beam of light ripped through space and time.

The Eye of Heavenly Tribulation and the Heavenly Punishment Eye collided.

Although they are not on the same level, they share the same origin, and at the moment of collision, the Heavenly Punishment Eye opened.

"The opportunity has arrived!"

Donghua had been waiting for this moment. Only when the Heavenly Punishment Eye opened could he enter it and disintegrate it from within; otherwise, he would be trapped in the Heavenly Punishment forever.

His original plan was to force the opening, but with the presence of the West Queen Mother, he took a shortcut.

"Boom!"

The Heavenly Emperor's True Form, the Heavenly Emperor Dharma Form, the Hunyuan Power, the Way of Taiji, the Emperor Dao Power, the Power of the Emperor's Realm...

All the power erupted instantly, and a jet-black spear appeared in Donghua's hand.

It is the God-Slaying Spear!

After the creation of the Xuanhuang Emperor Realm, the God-Slaying Spear served as a pillar of heaven, absorbing the Dao of Donghua and undergoing further development and upgrading.

Although it hasn't reached the level of a supreme treasure yet, its power is definitely stronger than before.

Boundless power condensed in Donghua's hands, and finally all of it converged on the God-Slaying Spear.

Donghua, gun in hand, leaped into the air!

As soon as the Heavenly Punishment Eye opened, they rushed into it.

"Boom!"

The sky seemed to have collapsed!

At this moment, the entire Primordial World was plunged into gray darkness.

High above, the gray World-Destroying Power and the golden Emperor Dao Power clashed continuously.

The Golden Dragon manifests!

Thunder roared!

After a series of clashes, a thunderous sound came from the heavens.

After the sound subsided, the Primordial Wilderness gradually regained its light!

High above the heavens, Donghua stood tall, spear in hand, golden imperial blood dripping from the corners of his mouth.

The Emperor's blood dripped into the Primordial Wilderness, instantly evolving into a world teeming with countless living beings.

"Brother!" The West Queen Mother quickly flew up and gently embraced Donghua.

Donghua wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and held West Queen Mother's hand tightly.

"I'm fine. I didn't expect this World-Destroying Power to be so strong. If it weren't for you, I might have really been doomed this time."

The West Queen Mother slapped Donghua and said angrily, "Brother, you must never take such risks again. You are now the Heavenly Emperor, and the father of Ming'er and Qiong'er. You should think more carefully."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll listen to my junior sister, I promise I won't take any more risks!"

Donghua quickly backed down, as the danger this time was no less than the oppressive force brought by the Time-Space Demon God.

I previously thought I could dismantle the World-Destroying Power from within, which was indeed true. However, if I were to forcibly open the Heavenly Punishment Eye, it would be truly dangerous.

Donghua took out a ball of purple light and handed it to West Queen Mother, saying, "Junior Sister, absorb this power of the Heavenly Dao's origin."

"What is this?" the West Queen Mother asked, taking the ball of light in confusion.

"This is the power of the Heavenly Dao's origin, also known as the Primordial Violet Qi. However, this particular Primordial Violet Qi is the power of origin related to Heavenly Punishment, which is a perfect match for you!"

Donghua explained that what he gave to the West Queen Mother was indeed the Primordial Violet Qi, but it was the Primordial Violet Qi in its earliest form.

The Primordial Violet Qi that Hongjun gave them was refined, and it was more difficult to absorb in that state.

"Junior sister, absorb this primordial power and evolve your Eye of Heavenly Tribulation into the Heavenly Punishment Eye, further gaining control over the Zixiao Divine Thunder and the World-Destroying Divine Lightning."

"This time, you'll probably be able to break through to the Quasi-Saint realm, but it will be difficult for you to reach the Hunyuan Realm, since you haven't yet put your own path into practice."

The West Queen Mother asked, "Is my Dao the same as the Heavenly Rules you speak of?"

Donghua nodded and said, "Yes, you are right. Only when your Great Dao and the power of Heavenly Rules unite to become the true Heavenly Punishment and Heavenly Rules can you break through the Primordial Hun Yuan in one fell swoop and achieve the status of a Saint."

"That's fine too. After you break through to the Quasi-Saint realm, you can accumulate more experience and break through to the Third Heaven in one fell swoop!"

"Thank you, brother, you've been so good to me!" The West Queen Mother held the weakened Donghua, her eyes filled with gratitude.

After the two became Dao Companion, Donghua clearly arranged their paths, ensuring that every step was the most suitable for them.

P. S.: Brothers, I won't abandon this project. Something came up, so I'm just taking a break to write.
