Donghua didn't understand Hong Yun's actions, but he was indeed shocked. In that instant, he truly felt admiration for Hong Yun, after all, this was Primordial Violet Qi.

Without giving it much thought, he immersed his mind in the Primordial Violet Qi and began to observe what it was that could actually lead to the attainment of Saint.

The Primordial Violet Qi, also known as the Foundation of the Great Dao, is a Purple Qi that condensed after the birth of the Heavenly Dao by sensing the Heavenly Dao Power. It appears to have a physical form, yet it is also ethereal and intangible.

When Donghua's mind was immersed in the Primordial Violet Qi, he felt that various rules were intertwined, and these rules were also part of the Heavenly Dao.

If one can comprehend this rule, one can mobilize the Heavenly Dao Power, and the Primordial Violet Qi will be completely integrated into the primordial spirit, thus achieving the status of Heavenly Dao Sage.

As long as the Heavenly Dao endures, the Saint will never die!

Donghua comprehended the Heavenly Dao Power of order from the various interwoven rules, but just as he was about to delve deeper, he was instantly repelled, and his primordial spirit could no longer enter.

After being unable to enter, Donghua began to study some of the Heavenly Dao rules he had comprehended.

With a casual movement, some Heavenly Dao Power condensed in his hand. Heavenly Dao Power is also known as the power of rules or the power of karmic position.

With a casual gesture, there was no fluctuation of magical power, but rather the power of various rules. As long as one is within the rules, no one can defeat them. This is the terrifying aspect of the Heavenly Dao Power.

Thinking of this, Donghua suddenly wondered if Di Jun could also mobilize the Heavenly Dao Power? After all, the Heavenly Dao had bestowed merit upon him when he became the Heavenly Emperor Position.

But he had never seen Di Jun use the Heavenly Dao Power. Could it be that he never did? He couldn't understand this.

Hong Yun then withdrew the Primordial Violet Qi and sighed, "I feel that the Primordial Violet Qi is truly not suitable for me. I don't know why it chose me in the first place. I have a carefree heart and have no interest in Primordial Wilderness World. This Primordial Violet Qi, on the contrary, makes me unable to advance and unwilling to retreat!"

Donghua offered no comment on these words. There are gains and losses; it all depends on whether one is truly carefree or merely pretending. True carefree Dao Heart is unconstrained by anything and everything, including the Primordial Violet Qi.

After Zhen Yuanzi finished entrusting the affairs of Wuzhuang Temple, the three set off for the Western Continent.

When the three arrived at Mount Sumeru, they happened to meet Zhunti and Houtu, the Ancestral Witch Houtu, who had come from the east, at the foot of the mountain.

"I didn't expect Zhunti act so quickly. It seems he is indeed in a hurry. I just wonder what promise he made!"

After exchanging greetings, the group walked together up the mountain. They didn't fly; they just walked and chatted.

Upon reaching the mountain, the socially anxious Jieyin was once again waiting outside the hall, his sorrowful face expressionless, as he welcomed everyone into the main hall.

Although Jieyin acted convincingly, the observant Donghua still noticed his inner unease and quickened his pace. Seeing this, Donghua couldn't help but want to laugh.

Who would believe it? The future Buddha who Jieyin will actually be a person with social anxiety.

The six sat upright in the main hall. Jieyin silent, while Zhunti, with Zhunti silver tongue, flattered Donghua and the others, especially Zhen Yuanzi and Houtu, showering them with praise.

Such words would confuse anyone who heard them, since this was not praise from an ordinary person, but from someone of slightly higher status, being a disciple of the Dao Ancestor and a potential future Attain Sainthood.

"On behalf of the Western Region Daoists, my Jieyin brother and I express our gratitude to these fellow Daoists. They are truly virtuous and noble individuals who have extended a helping hand to the Western Region."

Donghua smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhunti, Zhunti don't try to confuse us. Let's get down to business. Now that Zhen Yuanzi, Hong Yun, and Houtu Daoist Houtu have joined us, our task of repairing the Western Region Earth Vein can be considered settled."

Houtu suddenly spoke up and asked, "What should we do? There are so many Earth Vein in the entire Western Region; we simply cannot manage it all."

Donghua glanced at Zhunti in surprise, his eyes seeming to say, "You didn't tell her how to do it, and you still managed to trick that girl into coming here. You scumbag!"

Although Zhunti didn't fully understand the specific meaning behind that look, he grasped the general idea. He chuckled and said to Houtu, "I hope Houtu Daoist Houtu will forgive me. The situation was urgent at the time, and the journey was long, so I couldn't explain clearly. Please forgive me."

Houtu waved her hand generously, her voice clear and crisp as she said, "It's alright. I am the God of the Great Earth, the Earth Ancestral Witch. If I can repair the Western Region Earth Vein, it will benefit my path. Moreover, this world was created by the Father God, and this is also my duty."

Upon hearing Houtu's words, Donghua understood Zhunti Houtu. However, he had to admit that Houtu truly possessed great love and a spirit of selfless dedication; otherwise, no matter Zhunti, it would have been of no use.

Donghua said, "Fellow Daoists, my thought is that it's unrealistic to repair the Western Region Earth Vein all at once; even our teacher couldn't do that."

"Therefore, our main task this time is to collect the earthly evil energy and earth fire energy that destroyed the Western Region, as well as the remaining demonic energy. Secondly, we need to repair the main vein of the Western Region."

"Zhen Yuanzi possesses the Earth Fetal Membrane and the Earth Book of the Earth Dao. Using the Earth Book as a map and Mount Sumeru as the center, we will draw eight main veins across the Western Continent, converging in all eight directions, with the Mount Sumeru Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss as the main point, to construct an array."

"From now on, these eight main veins will drive the entire Western Region Earth Vein, gradually generating other branch veins. At that time, the matter of the Western Region Earth Vein will be solved, and the great prosperity of the Western Region for you two fellow Daoists will no longer be a problem."

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

Hong Yun clapped her hands in praise, exclaiming, "Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Houtu exclaimed in amazement, "The East King Gong is truly a man of great talent!"

Even the ever-unchanging face of the Jieyin seemed to force a smile. Donghua glanced at it and exclaimed, "Uh, it would have been better if he hadn't smiled at all!"

Zhunti and the other person Jieyin and bowed deeply to Donghua. Zhunti said, "Fellow Daoist has shown great kindness to the Western Region, which we can hardly repay!"

Although Donghua accepted the greeting, he waved his hand and said, "It's alright, it's alright. I'm not doing this for you two fellow Daoists, but for the Western Continent, for the trillions of living beings in the Western Region, and for the Primordial World Continent. Moreover, this is something that the Immortal Dao owed to the Western Region. As the Head of Male Immortals, it is only right that I do this."

The karmic debt of repairing the Western Region is immense, so immense that Donghua cannot bear it. Therefore, this karmic debt cannot be repaid by Jieyin and Zhunti, but only by the Heavenly Dao and the Immortal Dao.

Otherwise, a great favor could turn into enmity. Besides, Zhunti the path of cause and effect. What if these two realize they can't settle the score and make him disappear? After all, that's not impossible, is it?

Moreover, although Jieyin and Zhunti are the masters of the Western Region, they cannot fully represent the Western Region. Therefore, it is enough to owe them a favor; the karmic consequences are too great.

It doesn't matter if you owe karma to the Heavenly Dao and the Immortal Dao; just give them merit and good fortune!

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi immediately said, "Fellow Daoist, you truly deserve to be the Head of Male Immortals. With such a level of attainment, you are indeed worthy of being called the Head of Male Immortals."

Donghua smiled slightly and waved his hand, saying, "Haha, fellow Daoists, please don't flatter me any further. I feel extremely uncomfortable being the Head of Male Immortals. If it were really possible, I really wouldn't want to be it."

"Because of this identity, everyone in the Primordial Wilderness is now eyeing me with hostility, especially the Heavenly Court, which sees me as a thorn in their side. Who can I complain to?"

Upon hearing Houtu, Houtu asked in confusion, "You cultivate the Destiny and Fortune Imperial Dao, isn't that the main reason why the Heavenly Court is wary of you?"

Donghua sighed, but inwardly he was overjoyed. "That was a perfect comeback. I've been waiting for you to ask that. If word gets out that I'm not cultivating the Destiny and Fortune Imperial Dao of Destiny, I can truly rest easy from now on."

"Fellow Daoists, you may not know this, but ever since I began cultivating the Immortal Dao under my teacher, I have felt that the Destiny and Fortune Imperial Dao is not suitable for me. Now I only cultivate the Pure Yang and Primordial Yang Great Dao, and have long since given up on cultivating the Destiny and Fortune Imperial Dao."

"Moreover, now that I have cultivated both paths for a long time, I have gained new insights and should soon forge my own path!"

Those in the hall were shocked upon hearing this, their faces filled with disbelief. How could the method of attaining enlightenment be changed so easily!

Seeing that the others didn't believe him, Donghua directly unleashed his own power.

Upon seeing this, everyone finally believed it. Zhen Yuanzi exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Dao, you're confused! How can you change the method of attaining the Dao so easily? If you want to change your path of cultivation in the future, it will be extremely difficult!"

Donghua chuckled, "Haha, thank you for your concern, fellow Daoist. It's nothing. I have no intention of vying for Primordial Wilderness prehistoric world. The Destiny and Fortune Imperial Dao is actually a burden to me, so it's better to let it go. Besides, I have already found my new path."

At this point, Donghua stopped, glanced at the group, and jokingly said, "Fellow Daoists, you'd better cultivate diligently. Don't wait until Donghua attains enlightenment before you have, hahaha."

Upon hearing Donghua's words, the people in the hall burst into laughter. Only Jieyin's gaze darkened, as if he was still recalling the Great Dao that Donghua had just released. No one knew what he was thinking, and no one could tell from his expression.

However, they all believed that Donghua had given up on the path of imperial cultivation, since the great Dao he had just revealed could not be faked.

Zhen Yuanzi jokingly said, "I think you, Tai Wei, are afraid of Di Jun and Taiyi. You've been scared out of your wits, which is why you gave up, haha."

The group joked after hearing this, but no one took it seriously. After all, they were all top-tier innate spiritual beings, so who would submit to whom, and who would fear whom? Moreover, this was a battle for the Great Dao, which was no ordinary matter.

Donghua laughed along with the others, but in his heart he thought, "I did give up cultivating the Destiny and Fortune Imperial Dao because I didn't want to die in vain, Destiny and Fortune Imperial Dao can't truly lead to enlightenment."

Since the birth of the Primordial World, who has ever attained the Dao of Emperor? Moreover, the era of the Lich Kings was probably the last glorious period of the Dao of Emperors, since after the return of the Six Sages, no one would be allowed to attain the Dao of Emperors.

After a brief discussion, Hong Yun and Zhunti chatted amiably. Both were people who enjoyed making friends, and they found themselves kindred spirits. They talked amongst themselves and quickly became close friends.

Houtu was also quite talkative, with a clear and cool voice, but she spoke very concisely, able to express profound truths in just a few sentences, which was truly rare and worthy of her high achievements.

Zhen Yuanzi was no longer the aloof and dignified Daoist he usually was; he would often crack a few jokes, which made everyone laugh.

Jieyin rarely spoke, listening silently, and only occasionally saying a few words when asked.

Donghua sighed inwardly, "This is truly a difficult situation for someone with social anxiety."
