Three Ancestors Enter Chaos, Chen Xuan Robs Their Home

Perhaps because he had been oppressed for too long, Hongjun, after taking control of the Primordial World, no longer wished for any powerful figures to emerge.

This was the classic case of someone too weak in ability strangling every possibility that might surpass him, ensuring that he would remain the strongest forever.

Among the Gods and Devils of Chaos, almost no one would stoop to such a thing. Yet Hongjun had carried it forward and made it flourish.

After grumbling for a while, Yang Mei Ancestor finally said to Chen Xuan, "When Pangu opened the heavens, countless wisps of Primordial Purple Qi transformed into the innate spiritual treasures of this Primordial World."

"Another portion of the Primordial Purple Qi was scattered by the Pangu Axe. Hongjun likely has some of it in his possession as well."

"So now, the Primordial Purple Qi that can be found in Chaos is almost negligible. Therefore, this poor Daoist believes that Fellow Daoist Azure Lotus should not place too much hope in it."

"Besides, with Fellow Daoist Azure Lotus's abilities, it may not be impossible for you to nurture Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals."

How could Chen Xuan fail to understand Yang Mei Ancestor's true intention? He wanted Chen Xuan to pass down the cultivation methods of Chaos within the Primordial World.

So that, because of Hongjun's selfishness, cultivation methods truly beneficial to this world would not be forever unable to flourish from this day onward.

Though they had been born in Chaos and had even once tried to stop Pangu from opening the heavens, after living through countless yuanhui, they had long since come to love the Primordial World.

If not forced by circumstances, the three of them would never have chosen to leave this Primordial World. Of course, even if they remained, they had no ambition to contend for supremacy.

That was also why Chen Xuan valued them. Otherwise, he would be seeking the hide of a tiger. He might as well have cooperated with Hongjun directly.

Thus, Chen Xuan nodded without hesitation. "I will not have my disciples cultivate any Three-Corpse Severing method."

"When you fellow Daoists return, my Azure Lotus lineage will certainly have several Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals, who will help the three of you avenge the hatred of that year."

Yang Mei Ancestor burst into laughter upon hearing this. Then, together with Yin-Yang Ancestor and Heaven-and-Earth Ancestor, he bid Chen Xuan farewell.

After another round of parting instructions, the three finally tore open the void and headed into Chaos.

As the three departed, they did not forget to take a strand of Chen Xuan's Fortune aura with them into Chaos.

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan had already used the Law of Nature to conceal his aura perfectly.

As a result, Hongjun instantly sensed four familiar auras leaving the Primordial World and heading into the depths of Chaos.

A cold smile appeared on Hongjun's lips. "At least you know when to yield. Otherwise, once this poor Daoist attains the Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, I will surely scatter your souls to the winds."

After saying that, he once again began comprehending the Fortune Jade Disk, taking that final step before his breakthrough.

This was also why Chen Xuan had Yang Mei Ancestor and the others take a strand of Fortune aura with them when they left: to numb Hongjun's vigilance.

Although concealing his aura this way could not last too long, it would be enough to hold out until Hongjun attained the Dao.

At this moment, Chen Xuan finally recalled the innate grand formation at Mount Sumeru that he had been unable to enter last time.

He immediately tore through the void and appeared directly at the location in his memories, only to discover that the innate protective grand formation was gone.

He even heard voices speaking within. One person said, "Senior Brother, I feel that those terrifying auras seem to have left."

Another voice replied, "They truly are no longer in the west. You and I brothers can finally use this opportunity to take a look around this world."

"Otherwise, when they return, we will have to cower within this grand formation again, not daring to take even half a step outside."

Though Chen Xuan had not seen the two men's appearances, he could already determine that they were the later-renowned Western Two Sages.

Just then, Chen Xuan saw two bald men in Daoist robes poke their heads out from the grand formation.

They first swept the area with their divine senses. Only after deciding it was safe did they slowly emerge, heading straight toward Mount Sumeru.

Concealing his own aura, Chen Xuan followed the Western Two Sages up Mount Sumeru.

I never expected these two baldies to have already reached the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. It seems the foundations of Heaven-ordained Saints truly are not low.

Before long, the Western Two Sages arrived at the summit of Mount Sumeru, where the Eight Treasures Merit Pool had once been.

This startled Chen Xuan, for he discovered that a new pool of water had formed where the Eight Treasures Merit Pool had originally stood.

Its size, however, was more than a hundred times smaller than the original Eight Treasures Merit Pool. At present, it covered no more than one or two mu of land.

Yet its water was no different from that of the Eight Treasures Merit Pool. Chen Xuan sensed it carefully and found that even its effects were exactly the same.

Just then, Zhunti Daoist also discovered this miniature Eight Treasures Merit Pool. With an excited expression, he said to Jieyin Daoist.

"Senior Brother, this pool is extraordinary. If we have the chance, we should establish our Daoist sanctuary here in the future. It will surely aid our cultivation."

Jieyin Daoist nodded after hearing this, then sighed. "I only hope those three never return. Otherwise, no matter how good this place is, it will not belong to us."

Zhunti Daoist's face immediately fell. He plopped down onto the ground and said with deep resentment.

"With so many good places for those three mighty figures to occupy, they insist on competing with us for this broken-down west. I truly do not know what they are thinking."

Watching the Western Two Sages complain, an idea suddenly surfaced in Chen Xuan's mind: rob the Western Two Sages' home.

Having made up his mind, Chen Xuan used the Great Dao Law of Space and appeared directly at the Western Two Sages' place of birth.

Chen Xuan inspected the place closely and found that the Bodhi Tree and Bitter Bamboo he had been seeking had already vanished without a trace.

Just as Chen Xuan thought he had come for nothing, he noticed several bamboo shoots poking their heads out of the ground.

Though they had only barely emerged, Chen Xuan could clearly see that these bamboo shoots were all purple.

Could these be Purple Bamboo? Though they cannot compare to Bitter Bamboo, this trip was not entirely wasted.

Then Chen Xuan waved his hand, collecting even that patch of earth into Fortune Space. This completely severed the roots of Western Purple Bamboo.

After finishing all this, Chen Xuan directly used the Great Dao Law of Space to leave the west and return to Azure Lotus Island in the East Sea.

At that moment, Zhunti Daoist suddenly felt a surge of foreboding in his heart. He sensed that he had completely lost his connection to something extremely important.

Without a second thought, he rushed toward the place where he had taken form. When Zhunti Daoist saw that the patch of earth where the purple bamboo shoots had grown was gone, he immediately burst into loud, wailing sobs.
