Karmic Reincarnation, Hongjun Takes Action

Upon hearing Ling Xiao's words, the expressions of Yuanshi and the others changed.

"I don't believe it! You're trying to corrupt our resolve to cultivate!"

Yuanshi was the first to speak, his expression solemn, revealing the steadfastness of his Daoist heart.

"Whether you believe it or not, ask your brother," Ling Xiao said calmly.

Yuanshi looked at Laozi, but before he could speak, the latter spoke first.

"What Ling Xiao said... is very likely true."

Laozi Tzu's expression was solemn as he spoke in a deep voice, having already severed his three corpses and possessing the deepest understanding of this path.

He had sensed something was wrong a long time ago, because no matter how hard he tried, the three corpses could not be reunited, and the road ahead seemed to be blocked.

Now that Ling Xiao has said this, he's starting to believe it to some extent.

Upon hearing Laozi's words, Yuanshi, Jieyin, and the others' expressions changed drastically. Ling Xiao might speak carelessly, but Laozi had no reason to say such a thing.

If that were truly the case, wouldn't their foundation for cultivation be destroyed?

Because those present had already displayed their dual bodies, and the magical artifacts they used were not from the same source.

You can't exactly melt the severed corpse back into the body and then slice it off again, can you?

"Alright, that's enough for me. Now it's time for the reckoning."

"You all besieged my eldest and second brothers; you must bear the Karma!"

Ling Xiao's expression turned cold, and he said in a deep voice. As soon as he finished speaking, under the horrified gazes of Laozi and the others, he made his move instantly, raising his hand and gently waving it.

Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian slowly rose up, out of control, drawn by an inexplicable force.

"Ling Xiao, what do you want to do?"

"Don't do anything reckless! We are the true descendants of Pangu Orthodox Lineage, possessing the merits of creating the world. If you kill us, you will be in big trouble!"

"Dao Ancestor, and Dao Ancestor again! Fellow Daoist Ling Xiao, we were blind before. Now that you have become a saint, please don't hold it against us. We will compensate you, and from now on, we'll call it even."

They panicked, their sense of crisis intensified, and they felt as if their bodies were out of control, unable to break free from this restraint.

The power of Sage is beyond imagination!

They were completely powerless to fight back!

Ling Xiao remained expressionless, raised his hand again, and pointed, sending out three beams of light that entered the bodies of the Three Pure Ones.

Instantly, their bodies shone brightly, radiating purple light. Then, three streams of purple energy slowly flew out from above their heads.

The distortion continued, the Daoist aura wafted, it was the Primordial Violet Qi.

Ling Xiao beckoned, and three streams of Primordial Violet Qi flew into his hand, which he casually tossed into the Primordial Cauldron to seal them.

"Ah! My Primordial Violet Qi!"

Yuanshi was furious, feeling as if his soul had been ripped out and he had lost his most precious possession. He was so angry that he almost fainted.

Laozi was utterly devastated. The instant the Primordial Violet Qi left his body, he could no longer sense his chance to become a saint.

Utter despair.

How can one become a saint after this?

Jieyin and Zhunti, Zhun Ti the side, were completely mesmerized, wishing they could flee immediately, but they couldn't!

At this moment, Ling Xiao's gaze fell upon them, and in his eyes, strange phenomena appeared and churned, filled with boundless terror.

Jieyin Zhun Ti were taken aback for a moment, then their faces turned fierce as they glared at each other and began to attack.

In the end, they both perished, destroyed by their opponent.

"Born in an instant, die in an instant, connecting the past and the future, in this very present moment, I seal you within, for eternity."

This is called the Karmic Reincarnation.

Jieyin hearing these words, Zhun Ti felt a chill in their hearts. Just as they were about to speak and beg for mercy, they saw Ling Xiao throw them into endless Chaos.

Jieyin and Zhun Ti landed, their expressions turning fierce again as they attacked each other until they perished together. But at that moment, time rewound, and they started over again, ultimately perishing together once more.

Infinite loop.

A vast Karmic Reincarnation surrounds Jieyin and Zhunti, endlessly repeating, forever sealing his life and death in a fleeting moment.

The Three Pure Ones were terrified, their scalps tingling with fear, unable to control themselves.

"Is this the method of Sage?"

Before Ling Xiao, they were like ants, truly living up to the saying, "All men below the level of Sage are but ants."

"Ling Xiao, we have the Great Dao protecting us, don't do anything reckless!" Yuanshi cried out in panic, already somewhat delirious.

"Teacher! Help!"

Whether it was the Yuanshi's prayer that had an effect or not, a giant hand flew out from the Chaos void and grabbed straight at this place.

It possesses the power of the heavens, vast and boundless, beyond comprehension.

Ling Xiao remained calm as he raised his hand and struck. In the eyes of the Three Pure Ones, his figure grew increasingly majestic and imposing, making them feel deeply insignificant in Ling Xiao presence.

This feeling was too overwhelming.

Time intertwined, the world was created, and everything became blurred. Ling Xiao's figure seemed to have gone to another time and space, where he fought a great battle, causing the destruction of the world and the change of eras.

The endless Chaos was ignited and shattered into nothingness. In an instant, life and death vanished, the laws of the Great Dao roared, and order was disrupted.

They couldn't even see the battle clearly; they could only feel the overwhelming power of the heavens, and their hearts trembled.

Wahuang Heaven stands before the Wa Palace, gazing at a corner of Chaos, Nuwa phoenix eyes flashing with inexplicable astonishment.

"Ling Xiao is really still alive..."

"It looks like he's fighting with the teacher?"

Nuwa was a little dizzy. Ling Xiao hadn't died as she expected, but what she never expected was that he had actually become Primordial Origin Sage.

And he's even fighting against the Dao Ancestor?

Thinking of this, Nuwa revealed a bitter smile. She surpassed the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti, and was the first disciple of the Dao Ancestor to achieve sainthood.

Despite such a large gap, it still couldn't surpass Ling Xiao.

"The Three Pure Ones, Jieyin, Zhun Ti have suffered a great calamity..."

"If they hadn't come to Chaos to hear the Dao, would they have been able to avoid this calamity?"

Nuwa suddenly realized that if she hadn't preached, they wouldn't have come to Chaos.

Does it seem like I've become an accomplice?

In the Chaos, everything was in ruins, and Destruction power was spreading everywhere. Ling Xiao and the others were nowhere to be seen.

Purple Heaven Palace.

Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian stood in a disheveled state, while Hongjun sat cross-legged on the Nine-Layer Cloud above, his figure both real and illusory, mysterious and unpredictable.

"Thank you so much, teacher, for saving me!" Yuanshi bowed deeply in gratitude, still feeling lingering fear to this day.

I don't know what happened, but my vision blurred for a moment, and when I opened my eyes again, I was already in the Purple Heaven Palace.

As for where Ling Xiao went or whether he was beaten to death, he dared not ask.

The atmosphere was somewhat strange and oppressive. Even though Hongjun didn't say a word, the Three Pure Ones could feel an inexplicable anger.

That's terrifying.

Hongjun remained expressionless, gazing intently at the Three Pure Ones below. After a short while, he slowly spoke.

"You are destined to become saints, yet you are constantly troubled by worldly affairs. If you were destined to become saints, how could you be in such a sorry state as you are today?"

His tone was indifferent, but his eyes were full of deep meaning, revealing his dissatisfaction with the Three Pure Ones.

"Teacher is right," the Three Pure Ones responded in unison. Then, Yuanshi's eyes flashed, and he hesitated before speaking.

"Um... Teacher, the Primordial Violet Qi I was waiting for has been taken away. Can I still become a saint?"
