The Ownership of Primordial Violet Qi!

Purple Cloud Palace.

The innate deities were filled with envy and resentment.

East King Duke had obtained a strand of Primordial Violet Qi, which meant he could bestow it upon another, raising a Heavenly Dao Saint from nothing.

Calculating this way.

The Hongmeng Immortal Palace would have three great saintly powers in the future.

Truly, so terrifying!

"Many thanks to the Dao Ancestor for this gift. East King Duke shall exhaust all efforts to enlighten the beings of the Primordial World, protect all living things, eradicate the Chaos Evil, and uphold the majesty of the Great Dao and Heavenly Dao!"

East King Duke bowed slightly, his voice extremely deep and weighty.

Ever since the first sermon at Purple Cloud Palace, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had bestowed upon him many opportunities, and thus he had already developed reverence for this kind-faced old Daoist.

Compared to the Chaos Demon Gods, even if Dao Ancestor Hongjun had selfish motives, he had always protected the Primordial World, opening an era of eternal peace for all living beings under heaven.

Seeing this, Dao Ancestor Hongjun nodded slightly, then looked at the Three Pure Ones on the cushions.

"The Three Pure Ones are incarnations of Great God Pangu's Primordial Spirit, with extremely profound backgrounds, bearing great destiny and merit, worthy of becoming Heavenly Dao Saints!"

"I wish to take you as my personal disciples. What say you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other innate deities looked at the three with envious eyes. At this moment, Old Ancestor Hongyun also seemed to grasp the function of the cushions.

Boundless regret was born in his heart, and he stared at Zhunti and Jieyin with a face full of anger.

If he had sat on the cushion, could he not also have become a disciple of Dao Ancestor Hongjun and obtained supreme opportunities?

Hearing this!

Old Master Taiqing, Yuanshi, and Tongtian, without any hesitation, knelt down directly and performed the grandest prostration, their eyes full of reverence.

To be a personal disciple of a Heavenly Dao Saint was the greatest opportunity!

"We pay respects to Master!"

Then, Dao Ancestor Hongjun nodded lightly, waved his jade sleeve slightly, and three strands of Primordial Violet Qi tore through the void, entering the Primordial Spirits of the Three Pure Ones.

Instantly, Mysterious Light filled the sky, Dao Resonance was infinite, and the laws of the Great Dao trembled for billions of miles.

After doing all this, Dao Ancestor Hongjun looked at Nuwa.

The other innate deities, as if sensing something, turned pale and looked utterly dejected. They knew that they were most likely fated to miss out on the Primordial Violet Qi.

After all, there were six cushions in total. If each were to receive a strand of Primordial Violet Qi, only one strand would be left for everyone else to fight over.

"Minor trends can be changed, but the major trend cannot!"

"To obtain it is my fortune; to lose it, I do not regret!"

"Heavenly Dao Saints are appointed by the Heavenly Dao itself. Dao Ancestor Hongjun is merely its spokesperson. Only those with profound talent and deep blessings can prove Dao and become a Heavenly Dao Saint. Others must walk the path of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin with great perseverance!"

"If one is obsessed with the Primordial Violet Qi, they may fall into demonic possession and have their Dao Heart destroyed!"

East King Duke sat cross-legged on the Twenty-Four Petal Creation Green Lotus, his eyes containing the vast laws of the Great Dao, his gentle voice echoing slowly.

Among the crowd, Zhen Yuanzi, Old Ancestor Minghe, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and others seemed to have an epiphany, while the members of the Demon Race and Old Ancestor Kunpeng remained trapped in their inner demons.

"Nuwa, you will have great merit in the future and can become a Heavenly Dao Saint!"

"Are you willing to be my inner disciple?"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun finished speaking and looked at Nuwa on the cushion with a smile. She was dignified and graceful, her Law of Creation having reached the minor achievement level, and her cultivation at the Mid-stage Quasi-Saint.

Ever since Nuwa became East King Duke's Dao Companion, Dao Ancestor Hongjun felt that her River of Life had been tinged with a layer of purple-gold immortal mist. It seemed her future path would become even more profound, surpassing the calculations of the Heavenly Dao.

"Nuwa is willing!"

"I pay respects to Master! Greetings to the three senior brothers, the Three Pure Ones!"

Amidst a wave of astonishment, Nuwa knelt and bowed to Dao Ancestor Hongjun, then bowed slightly to the Three Pure Ones and the others.

At this moment, both Nuwa and Fuxi were extremely excited in their hearts, and they recalled the words East King Duke had spoken before. It turned out he had known everything all along.

Soon, only three strands of Primordial Violet Qi remained in Dao Ancestor Hongjun's hand, flickering with a deep Seven-Colored Divine Light, enticing the hearts and minds of everyone present.

Eyes watching the nose, nose watching the heart.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not look at Zhunti and Jieyin on the cushions, but quietly sat in meditation on the Cloud Platform. The Jade Disk of Creation hung down with the Three Thousand Laws, and Dao Resonance swept across endless billions of miles.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

Below, Ancestral Witch Dijiang stepped forward and bowed slightly to Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

"May I ask the Dao Ancestor, my Wu Race is of the Pangu Orthodox Lineage. I wonder if we can obtain the Primordial Violet Qi and thereby prove Dao and become a Saint?"

For the last three strands of Primordial Violet Qi, Dijiang wanted to contend.

Hearing this, Dao Ancestor Hongjun shook his head, then nodded in response.

"The Twelve Ancestral Witches were born without a Primordial Spirit, and thus cannot walk the path of the Heavenly Dao Saint. Moreover, you disrespect the Heavenly Dao and solely revere Pangu, so you are not favored by the Heavenly Dao."

"However, the Twelve Ancestral Witches can all walk the path of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin. With the inheritance of Great God Pangu, you can all become Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals of the Origin. But you must have great perseverance and abandon the illusory notion of proving Dao through Heavenly Dao Destiny."

Dao Ancestor Hongjun, ultimately compassionate towards all things, pointed out a path for Dijiang.

The Wu Race dominating the Primordial Wilderness brought no benefit whatsoever.

Instead, by wholeheartedly comprehending the inheritance of Great God Pangu and continuously refining their laws, they could one day break the chasm's shackles and roam freely within the Great Dao.

The path of laws was the true path of the Wu Race!

But looking at the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Dao Ancestor Hongjun knew they had not yet fully awakened. They still needed to endure blows and tempering before they could cast aside the halo of the Pangu Orthodox Lineage and return to their true selves!

"Wah wah wah!"

"Please, Dao Ancestor, accept us brothers as disciples and grant us the Primordial Violet Qi!"

"The Western World is barren, with all living beings trapped in seas of hellfire. Only if we brothers prove Dao and become saints can we have the power to revitalize the Western World and uphold the orthodox Heavenly Dao. Please, Dao Ancestor, have pity on us!"

On the cushions, Zhunti and Jieyin wept bitterly.

They had originally thought Dao Ancestor Hongjun would bestow the Primordial Violet Qi, but after waiting so long, there was no reaction at all.

It was like taking off your Dao robe just to fart.

Who could endure that?

"Please, Dao Ancestor, show us mercy!"

"During the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation, the Western World's earth veins exploded and were destroyed, innate spiritual qi leaked out, and all living beings of the Ten Thousand Races perished!"

"Now, if we brothers cannot become saints, the Western World will fall into an abyss of endless calamity, with only death awaiting us!"

Snot and tears streaming, Zhunti wiped them onto Jieyin's Dao robe.

Face? Dignity?

They were worthless in their eyes.

For a bit of self-respect, exchanging it for the chance to become a Heavenly Dao Saint—

It was truly worth it!

"Enough, I shall accept you as registered disciples. Here are two strands of Primordial Violet Qi, granted to you!"

"As for the final strand of Primordial Violet Qi, let it choose its own fated owner!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun waved his right hand lightly, and three strands of Primordial Violet Qi flew into the sky above the Purple Cloud Palace. Two fell into the Primordial Spirits of Zhunti and Jieyin, while the last wandered among the assembled innate gods.

Seeing this, East King Duke's lips curled slightly.

If nothing unexpected happened, that final strand of Primordial Violet Qi would fall into the hands of Old Ancestor Hongyun.

An innocent man may possess a jade, but that jade becomes his crime.

And this Primordial Violet Qi was likely the root cause of Old Ancestor Hongyun's downfall.

But if he survived that tribulation, he could be reborn from the ashes and qualify to enter the Hongmeng Immortal Palace.

Judging by his appearance, Old Ancestor Hongyun seemed to be showing signs of turning dark.

East King Duke was extremely looking forward to it!

"Hahaha... This Primordial Violet Qi chose the right person. It is only fitting that I possess it!"

"Hongyun thanks the Dao Ancestor for the bestowal!"

After drifting and circling, the Primordial Violet Qi turned into a streak of light and entered Old Ancestor Hongyun's Primordial Spirit.

Sensing the vast Heavenly Dao Rules, his cultivation realm even began to loosen at that moment, and his face was brimming with a satisfied smile.

Beside him, Zhen Yuanzi let out a sigh of relief.

He was genuinely happy that his good buddy had obtained the Primordial Violet Qi.

As for the other innate gods, their reactions varied—some were envious, while others wore venomous expressions.

Old Ancestor Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi were weak and isolated, and since Dao Ancestor Hongjun had not accepted Hongyun as a disciple, killing him would not be a major issue.

The Primordial Violet Qi—the foundation of becoming a saint!

"Hongyun, it's all your fault for dragging me into this, causing me to lose the chance to prove Dao and become a saint!"

"Your Primordial Violet Qi—this Old Ancestor claims it in advance!"

Old Ancestor Kunpeng's face was dark and gloomy, the fury in his heart barely contained. His eyes brimmed with supreme killing intent, as if he wanted to devour Old Ancestor Hongyun alive.

After distributing the Primordial Violet Qi, Dao Ancestor Hongjun sat high on the Cloud Platform. With a slight stir of his Dharma power, the Three Thousand Innate Gods all fell silent, showing no signs of disturbance.

"In my early years, I obtained many supreme treasures in the Primordial Wilderness. Now that I am about to merge with the Dao, I shall bestow them upon you all!"
