False Preachers, Slashing the Three Corpses to Bewilderment
On the Lunar Star, the two Moon Palace Fairy sisters stood before the Moon Palace, gazing solemnly into the distance.
The battle between Ling Xiao and Hongjun sent shivers down their spines.
The terrifying aura emanating from the Dao Ancestor after he devoured the Heavenly Dao was enough to instill fear in people even across endless time and space.
"Sister, do you think Ling Xiao can stop Dao Ancestor Hongjun?" Changxi asked nervously, twisting her skirt.
This was beyond her imagination, extremely difficult to understand, and beyond her comprehension given her level of understanding.
The gap is as wide as an insurmountable chasm.
Xihe remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking, "In my opinion, this is probably very difficult, or rather, there is simply no chance."
"In the past, Ling Xiao paid a great price to seal the Heavenly Dao for a period of time. Now, the Dao Ancestor is devouring the power of the Heavenly Dao."
"One can imagine the extent to which it would reach; how could Ling Xiao possibly contend with the power of the entire Heavenly Dao on his own?"
She analyzed the situation logically and with evidence. Although she sincerely wanted Ling Xiao to win, reality didn't allow it.
Upon hearing this, Changxi became even more nervous, her expression turning solemn.
"What should we do? I have a bad feeling. If Ling Xiao loses, the entire Primordial World will probably be doomed."
Xihe gave her younger sister a strange look and said, "What are you thinking about? Aren't you overthinking things?"
"No, think about it. The Dao Ancestor dared to devour even the Heavenly Dao. What wouldn't he dare to do? If he defeats Ling Xiao and then tries to devour the entire Primordial World, who will be able to stop him then?"
Changxi's face was solemn, her willow-leaf brows furrowed. This was a unique sensitivity of a female deity, which made her uneasy.
Xihe paused for a moment. The sisters were of one mind and felt the same way. She could sense Changxi's state of mind at that moment.
This doesn't sound like a joke.
It seems there is indeed some truth to this.
"Sister, perhaps you're overthinking it. This is a struggle between the Dao Venerable and the Dao Ancestor for their respective Dao lineages. What does it have to do with the Primordial World?"
Xihe forced a smile and comforted him.
"Okay, hopefully I'm just overthinking it."
Changxi let out a breath and said helplessly.
Xihe and remained silent, gazing quietly into the distance, a sigh escaping her lips.
"Perhaps only when the two sides have determined a victor and one of them has fallen will this world finally find complete peace."
She thought to herself, her gaze incredibly complex. This time, Ling Xiao was in a difficult situation, and she wondered if he could turn the tide.
Xihe didn't even dare to hope that Ling Xiao would win; just surviving would be a blessing.
At this moment, Hongjun's aura grew even more magnificent. He had already devoured eighty percent of the Heavenly Dao. Once he devoured it all, he would not only be able to achieve the Heavenly Dao Realm, but he could also go very far.
A magnificent aura enveloped the entire Primordial World, even startling the Chaos.
Hongjun was enveloped in the light of the Great Dao, his figure almost becoming ethereal. Every move he made was imbued with endless Dao principles, and One Thought Creates Myriad Worlds.
He is like the end of the Tao, an insurmountable peak on the path of cultivation, the source of everything.
At this moment, the name "Dao Ancestor" is truly embodied.
"Congratulations, teacher, on attaining the Great Dao."
Zhun Ti, quick-witted and agile, immediately knelt down and offered fervent flattery, his words ringing out loudly.
Although he didn't know exactly what level the Dao Ancestor had reached, that didn't stop him from flattering him.
Seeing this, Haotian felt annoyed, Zhun Ti behind Zhunti again. To make amends, he also bowed down without hesitation to offer his congratulations.
"The source of the Dao, the ancestor of all ages, on behalf of all disciples of the Mystic Gate lineage, I congratulate our master on attaining the Heavenly Dao and becoming the invincible Master!"
Not to be outdone, Laozi followed suit with a blessing, which surprised both Zhun Ti and Haotian.
I never expected Laozi to pull this stunt, and shamelessly claim to represent the Mystic Gate.
In fact, Laozi was the Dao Ancestor Daoist patriarch and the senior disciple of the Mystic Gate sect, so he was indeed qualified to represent them, unlike them who did not have a proper title.
Laozi's Daoist teachings resonate throughout heaven and earth, like the morning bell and evening drum, a grand and majestic sound, shaking the hearts and minds of countless beings.
Instantly, all the immortals who cultivated the Dao transmitted by the Dao Ancestor knelt down on the ground.
Although they were not formal disciples of the Mystic Gate, since the Dao Ancestor preached at the Purple Heaven Palace, Dao Ancestor the method of becoming a saint, which was spread Primordial World.
To this day, countless beings have cultivated the methods of the Dao Ancestor's Mystic Gate sect.
If we include all these living beings, then the number of disciples in the Mystic Gate sect is countless, like grains of sand in the Ganges.
What a magnificent sight it was when all these beings came together to worship the Dao Ancestor and offer their blessings!
The world pays homage to the Dao Ancestor, creating an unprecedented spectacle.
Hongjun sensed this and couldn't help but smile slightly, saying, "The world's hearts are with you, Ling Xiao, you dare to challenge my authority."
"How utterly foolish!"
The Chaos Green Lotus broke and rose again, its protective shield covering the Celestial Sphere shattered multiple times, yet it remained steadfast.
Hongjun's face was cold, with a hint of mockery.
At this rate, Ling Xiao won't be able to hold out for long; he could kill him without even needing to break through to the next level.
However, Hongjun still decided to fully enter the Heavenly Dao Realm, to make Ling Xiao feel despair, and to avenge the frustration he had accumulated over the years.
Ling Xiao stood tall amidst the lotus blossoms, his azure armor gleaming with an inextinguishable light.
Upon hearing Hongjun's words, he placed his halberd at his feet, a strange smile appearing on his face.
"If the world were to turn its hearts away from you? If they knew that the path they were cultivating was ultimately futile, that all their efforts over millennia had been in vain, and that you, the preacher and the lamp-bearer, were the one who started all of this, would they still revere you, the Dao Ancestor?"
His soft voice echoed through the sky, sending chills down the spines of all who heard it.
"What do you want to say?" Hongjun's smile froze, and his expression darkened slightly.
Ling Xiao chuckled and said, "Hongjun, you should know perfectly well what I'm trying to say."
"Back then, when you were preaching at the Purple Heaven Palace, you passed down the method of Three-Corpse Severing Dao, claiming that this was the only path to achieving the Primordial Origin."
"Actually, you've been hiding something. The spiritual treasures used to Slashing the Three Corpses must be of the same origin; otherwise, it's impossible to unify the three corpses and achieve the Primordial Origin Sage."
This statement shocked the world, caused a global uproar, and was a great shock.
Hongjun's face darkened. "Nonsense! The method I transmitted is without fault."
"No problem? Then why, all these years, has no one been able to Slashing the Three Corpses and attain enlightenment?"
"Do you dare swear an oath to the Great Dao?"
Ling Xiao asked with a smile, pressing him hard, wanting to completely expose Hongjun's true nature in front of the world.
Hongjun fell silent, his expression turning sinister.
All the saints, powerful beings, and strongmen were shocked.
Judging from the Dao Ancestor's reaction, this matter is most likely true.
Those powerful beings who had severed their corpses nearly ascended to heaven on the spot, their faces filled with horror and a deep doubt about the meaning of life.
Looking back carefully, since the time the teachings were given at the Purple Heaven Palace, countless years have passed, and countless lives have been lost, yet not a single one has been able to Three-Corpse Severing Dao.
This in itself speaks volumes.
Some of them had already had doubts, but now, combined with what Ling Xiao said, they instantly understood.
They were deceived by Hongjun!
