Hongjun also felt everyone's gaze fall upon him.
He sighed softly in his heart.
It's a pity I didn't take Tongtian as a personal disciple; that truly is my loss.
If I were to send Laozi and Yuanshi back directly, they would surely harbor resentment in their hearts.
Being this master isn't easy!
After pondering for a moment, Hongjun sighed and said, "Forget it! They've already come, so let's just consider it a training experience."
"Moreover, they are both blessed individuals, protected by the merit of creation."
"They won't fall easily, so let them follow!"
Yang Mei and the others didn't say much upon hearing this. Hongjun had already made his intentions so clear that they couldn't offer any more advice.
As long as it didn't affect the four of them joining forces to kill Rahou, that was all that mattered.
At worst, they would quickly kill Rahou, thus eliminating any danger.
"Let's make it a quick battle and be on our way," Yang Mei said directly.
Qiankun Ancestor and Yinyang Ancestor nodded in agreement.
Time was of the essence. Since they had decided to take action against Rahou, they had to kill him as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, if Rahou was given more time, who knew if he would come up with more tricks.
They were all Innate Gods and Demons, and they had a certain understanding of Rahou as an enemy, so they naturally wouldn't underestimate him.
"Good!"
Hongjun was also a decisive person, and he immediately said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he transformed into a stream of light, and Yang Mei and the others followed.
The four of them were all Primordial Golden Immortal powerhouses, and their flying speed was extremely fast, covering tens of thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Tongtian directly used the Ground Shrinking Step divine ability. With the blessing of his mana, his speed wasn't much slower, and he closely followed behind Hongjun and the others.
Laozi and Yuanshi were in trouble. Unlike Tongtian, who had mastered the Ground Shrinking Step divine ability, they could only rely on flying to follow.
But this speed couldn't even keep up with Tongtian, let alone catch up with Hongjun and the others.
At this time, Hongjun, who was far ahead, was also a little regretful in his heart.
For no other reason than Laozi and Yuanshi were simply too slow!
Not to mention that they still had to cross most of the Primordial World to reach the Western World.
The two of them were slow and their mana was far inferior to theirs. By the time they arrived in the West, the great battle between the four of them and Rahou would probably already be over.
Hongjun was helpless about this. He was only a Primordial Golden Immortal at this time, not an omnipotent saint, and he had no ability to help Laozi and Yuanshi.
He could only hope that the Heavenly Dao Merit on their bodies could protect them, at least so they wouldn't cause him any trouble.
Otherwise, his lifelong reputation would probably be ruined by these two disciples.
On the other hand, Tongtian surprised him a little.
Although Tongtian's cultivation wasn't at the Primordial Golden Immortal level, his speed wasn't much slower, and he always steadily followed behind them.
It's a pity Tongtian isn't my personal disciple, or I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to help but show off to Yang Mei and the others.
Yang Mei and the others also saw Tongtian's amazing speed. They could all see that Tongtian was using a divine ability to travel, but being able to master such a divine ability was enough to show Tongtian's extraordinary nature.
It was just that constantly using divine abilities would undoubtedly consume mana very quickly. Tongtian wasn't yet a Primordial Golden Immortal; could he withstand it?
An unknown distance behind the group, Yuanshi said with a bitter face, "Brother, I can no longer sense the aura of our master and the other seniors."
"I'm afraid we've been left behind by more than ten thousand miles, perhaps even hundreds of thousands of miles!"
He hesitated, because not only could he not sense the aura of Hongjun and the others, but he couldn't even sense Tongtian's aura.
This showed that Tongtian's speed was also far above theirs, and he was probably not far from Hongjun and the others.
They were all Pangu Sect Disciples, but the gap between them was simply too huge!
So huge that it was unacceptable.
"It's okay! As long as we keep chasing, we'll be able to catch up sooner or later," Laozi said in a deep voice, his expression changing for a while.
He understood Yuanshi's meaning very well. If Tongtian was allowed to go to the Western World alone, their brothers would probably be left further and further behind by Tongtian.
Only by obtaining more Heavenly Dao Merit would they have a chance to overtake Tongtian!
They couldn't allow Tongtian, their third brother, to always be above them.
He was the head of the Three Pure Ones, the true eldest brother!
Therefore, no matter how far away the Western World was, they had to catch up.
They absolutely couldn't let Tongtian abandon them again.
Tongtian was also starting to feel the strain. The problem was, his mana was being depleted far too quickly.
If he were a Primordial Golden Immortal, he could replenish his mana by constantly drawing spiritual essence from the world around him while traveling.
But his cultivation was only at the Grand Luo Golden Immortal level, so he could only rely on his own mana to persevere.
Fortunately, he had an advantage that others didn't: the Three Lights Divine Water!
As one of the top natural treasures in the world, the Three Lights Divine Water not only possessed the ability to revive the dead and regrow bones, but it could also quickly restore him to his peak condition.
An ordinary person would never waste it like this, but Tongtian had an entire stream formed from the Three Lights Divine Water, so it wasn't a waste for him at all.
Without hesitation, Tongtian took out a drop of Three Lights Divine Water and swallowed it directly. In an instant, an incomparably vast spiritual essence surged within him, and his depleted mana was replenished at an astonishing rate.
He continued to use Ground Shrinking Step, closely following behind Hongjun and the others.
As for Laozi and Yuanshi, who had fallen behind who knows how far, Tongtian could no longer sense their presence. However, he knew that his two brothers would not give up easily.
He simply shook his head slightly, noncommittal. Participating in this battle between Dao and Demons was indeed an opportunity for Laozi and Yuanshi.
It was just that their cultivation was too weak! Now they were just a burden to the team.
Besides, going to the Western World wasn't necessarily a good thing. With their cultivation, they would have difficulty even protecting themselves, let alone killing too many Demon Clan experts and earning a lot of Heavenly Dao Merit.
However, he could guess some of their thoughts, so he would just let them go.
In any case, they both had the protection of Pangu's creation merit, and they were people of great fortune, so they wouldn't fall.
After spending an unknown amount of time traveling, Tongtian and Hongjun finally approached the Western World.
Tongtian gazed into the distance. The Western World hadn't yet been through the Dao-Demon War, and it looked no different from the East. It was filled with lush greenery and abundant spiritual essence.
He couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.
It was a pity that such a vast Western World would become a dead land after the Dao-Demon War.
It was such a pity!
But if the Western World hadn't been destroyed in the Dao-Demon War, wouldn't it have been left to Jieyin and Zhunti, those two extremely shameless fellows?
These two relied on their thick skin to become Hongjun's nominal disciples during the lectures. Later, they founded the Western Sect and provoked the relationship between the Three Sects of the Daoist sect during the Investiture of the Gods, eventually becoming one of the beneficiaries of the Investiture of the Gods War.
If the Western World in its prime was left to them, these two would probably go straight to heaven.
After a little thought, Tongtian stopped thinking about it. In any case, his dojo wouldn't be in the Western World, so it was their bad luck.
The saying "better a dead friend than a dead me" was just like that.
Besides, Jieyin and Zhunti weren't good people to begin with, and he was happy to see them have more bad luck.
Somewhere in the mountains and forests of the Western World.
Two Daoists were sitting in meditation in the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in the mountains and forests.
One of the Daoists had fair skin and a lively expression, while the other had dark yellow skin and a calm appearance.
"Achoo!"
Zhunti, who was trying to calm his mind and cultivate, suddenly sneezed.
Jieyin, who was holding his breath and focusing his attention, instantly lost his concentration. His lively eyes scanned the surrounding mountains and forests.
"I wonder who is talking about me. Could it be those damned members of the Demon Clan?"
"Those damned fellows, if they hadn't been chasing us up and down the Western World, how could we have fallen to this point!"
Zhunti's expression was indignant.
They were both Innate lifeforms, but the Western World had always been controlled by the Demon Clan. Not long after they transformed, they were approached by members of the Demon Clan, who demanded that they submit to the Demon Clan and serve Rahou.
Jieyin and Zhunti naturally didn't want to do this, so they formed a grudge with the Demon Clan.
The Demon Clan was so aggressive that the two brothers simply intercepted and killed several Demon Clan experts, which attracted even more Demon Clan experts to hunt them down.
The two of them hadn't yet matured, and of course they were no match for the oppressive Demon Clan, so they fled everywhere in the Western World, and could only cultivate silently in nameless places.
"The Demon Clan deserves to die! But with Rahou protecting them, who dares to provoke the Demon Clan?"
Jieyin's face was bitter. If their cultivation wasn't enough to kill their way out of the Western World, the two brothers would have fled to the East long ago.
There was no need to hide so cautiously everywhere, which was really frustrating.
"Brother, I heard that the Three Clans War has ended, and the Demon Clan didn't gain much advantage in it."
"In my opinion, the Demon Clan won't be able to be arrogant in the West for long."
"As long as the Demon Clan fails, we can cultivate in the West with peace of mind."
Zhunti said with anticipation in his eyes.
The West had suffered from the Demon Clan for a long time!
What he hoped for most now was that someone could take strong action and completely solve the problem of the Demon Clan.
That way, the two brothers would be completely free.
"Easier said than done! Unless Rahou dies and his Dao vanishes."
"Otherwise, the Demon Clan will definitely continue to control the Western World."
Jieyin said with a face full of helplessness.
Rahou was a great power from the ancient times, and there are probably few people in the world who can be his match.
The origins of the two brothers are not bad, but compared to a Primordial power like Rahou, they are far inferior!
Thinking of this, the two looked at each other and sighed in unison.
Mount Tianmo. Endless demonic energy continuously overflows from Mount Tianmo, covering the sky and the sun, and spreading for millions of miles.
This place is the cultivation ground of Rahou, the Demon Ancestor, and also the sacred place of the Demon Clan.
Rahou, who was sitting cross-legged on a futon, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes full of anger.
Buzz!
A powerful and terrifying aura was released from his body, and the violent aura caused the nearby Demon Clan creatures to kneel down.
"Damn Hongjun! It seems he really wants to stop my path to enlightenment."
"He even brought other helpers. Since you are throwing yourselves into the net, then don't blame me for not being polite."
Rahou was furious in his heart. Hongjun brought Yang Mei and the other two directly into the Western World, completely ignoring him.
Does he really think that he is afraid just because he has helpers?
This time, he will definitely make them all come and never return!
Rumble!
Rahou's terrifying divine sense was immediately released, and he began to explore the borders of the Western World. The majestic power caused ripples in the void.
"Damn it!"
After the investigation, Rahou became even more angry. Hongjun actually looks down on him so much!
It's fine to bring helpers, but he even brought two Grand Luo Golden Immortal late-stage ants!
What does this mean? Does he want to use his hand to hone his two disciples?
What does he take him for? A stepping stone?
The Western World is his base camp! This guy brazenly brought two ants here, clearly wanting to use his hand to hone them, which made Rahou feel extremely despised.
If these ants didn't have someone backing them, how would they dare to offend him!
Therefore, Rahou guessed that these two must be Hongjun's disciples.
At the same time, he also discovered Tongtian who was following Hongjun and the others, but he had seen how strong Tongtian's combat power was before, although he had not yet reached the Primordial Golden Immortal realm.
However, his combat power was not inferior at all, and he also had a treasure to protect him.
Judging from his previous actions, he must also be a helper invited by Hongjun.
"This guy has really exhausted all means to deal with me!"
"But his biggest mistake is looking down on me so much! In that case, I will first tear these two ants into pieces, and I want to see if Hongjun will feel sorry for it!"
Rahou sneered, and immediately had a way to deal with it in his heart.
So he directly transmitted the sound to all the strong members of the Demon Clan, asking them to prepare to deal with the invading enemies.
At the same time, he also issued an order that these two Grand Luo Golden Immortal late-stage ants must not be let go.
Kill without mercy!
Inside the Western World, Hongjun and the others did not rashly kill their way to Mount Tianmo, but instead adjusted their breathing in place, and also waited for Laozi and Yuanshi who were lagging behind.
At this time, streamers of light flickered in the sky. Tongtian had not fallen too far behind Hongjun and the others. They had just stopped for a moment, and he had already arrived.
"We have entered the Western World with such fanfare, Rahou must have noticed it."
"Little friend, recover first, I'm afraid there will be a tough battle to fight next."
Hongjun reminded.
Tongtian nodded slightly. In front of Hongjun and the others, he couldn't directly take out the Three Lights Divine Water to recover. Even Primordial Golden Immortals would not be able to resist the temptation of such a top treasure.
So he directly began to recover his own state while sitting cross-legged.
Hongjun and the other three recovered while paying attention to the situation in the world.
They had already entered Rahou's territory. With Rahou's character, he would definitely not hide. Presumably, the Demon Clan army was already on its way.
When Hongjun and Tongtian and the others had recovered almost completely, Laozi and Yuanshi finally arrived.
Before the two could speak, their bodies suddenly trembled, as if they felt some kind of fatal danger.
This was a premonition in their hearts, which made them full of doubts.
"Brother, did you feel it?"
"It's as if some terrifying presence has locked onto us both."
Yuanshi said, looking puzzled.
Laozi nodded solemnly, "I feel it too. This sensation is definitely not good."
Listening to their words, Tongtian spoke up, "Eldest Brother, Second Brother, we've already entered the Demon Clan's territory."
"Neither of you has directly fought the Demon Clan before; they aren't easy to deal with."
"If you two leave now, it should still be in time."
"Those demons wouldn't chase after you to the point of leaving the Western World."
Yuanshi said in a deep voice, "Third Brother, no need to persuade us any further! We brothers should live and die together."
Tongtian felt helpless. He hadn't sensed any danger at all.
With his current combat power, unless Rahou personally attacked him, he wouldn't take any other member of the Demon Clan seriously.
But he couldn't say such things directly to them, or Laozi and Yuanshi might think he was looking down on them.
Yang Mei cleared his throat and said, "This battle will be extremely dangerous. We might not be able to spare any time to help you."
"If you're afraid, leaving now is indeed still an option."
Hongjun also said solemnly, "You are both my disciples. Even if you choose to leave, I won't blame you."
"After all, participating in this battle with your cultivation levels is indeed too dangerous."
Laozi shook his head, "Master, we know what we're doing."
"It doesn't matter if the Demon Clan is fierce; we just want to contribute."
Yuanshi also said with a serious expression, "Yes, this is to protect the Primordial World!"
"As Pangu Sect Disciples, we have a duty we cannot shirk."
Hongjun opened his mouth, somewhat hesitant.
He really didn't understand why they had such blind confidence.
But he had already said what he needed to say.
Since it was their choice, he wouldn't say more. If they were truly in danger, he would act accordingly.
After all, they were his disciples. If he didn't look after them, could he expect Yang Mei and the others to do so?
Tongtian also shook his head, without saying a word.
They had chosen their own path, after all.
Whether they could withstand it would depend on their own fortunes.
"Then let's continue deeper!"
"Rahou probably won't let us reach Mount Tianmo smoothly."
"I have a feeling he's already made his move."
Hongjun said in a deep voice, his gaze fixed on the area with the densest demonic energy in the world.
In that direction, vast amounts of demonic energy floated between heaven and earth, clearly indicating that Mount Tianmo was located there.
So the group immediately headed towards Mount Tianmo, delving deep into the heart of the Western World.
Rumble!
At some point, the sky had turned dark and gloomy, with incredibly dense demonic energy sweeping in from all directions, completely surrounding the group on their way.
And that wasn't all. Demon Clan armies emerged from every direction, their battle cries echoing through the sky, the combined demonic energy soaring straight up.
"This is the Demon Clan army?"
Laozi and Yuanshi's faces were filled with horror.
There were too many!
The Demon Clan army surged in from all sides, sweeping across the surrounding area like a tide.
In the blink of an eye, their group was surrounded by the Demon Clan army.
The overwhelming demonic energy made Laozi and Yuanshi feel apprehensive.
They had been too hasty!
They knew the Demon Clan army was bound to be large, but seeing it with their own eyes was still awe-inspiring.
Fortunately, they had big shots like Hongjun and the others with them; otherwise, they would have turned around and fled.
"The Demon Ancestor has long seen through your movements and schemes."
"Today is your day of reckoning!"
At that moment, a tall and sturdy Demon Clan expert spoke loudly from within the Demon Clan army.
This person had a powerful aura. Although he wasn't a Primordial Golden Immortal, he was at the peak of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm.
Behind him, the experts were also elites of the Demon Clan, all Grand Luo Golden Immortal experts!
Mora's eyes were filled with fierce killing intent as he roared, "The Ancestor has ordered, kill everyone!"
"Especially those two Grand Luo Golden Immortal late-stage ants!"
"Kill them first!"
As his voice fell, the vast, sea-like Demon Clan army swept out from all directions, and the mighty demonic energy changed the very color of the world.
Laozi and Yuanshi, hearing Mora's murderous words, were utterly dumbfounded.
What was going on? Could those two Grand Luo Golden Immortal ants he was talking about be them?
They hadn't provoked Rahou or the Demon Clan!
Why had the Demon Clan already set their sights on them?
Tongtian also looked strange. Could it be that Rahou thought Laozi and Yuanshi were provoking him?
Otherwise, he wouldn't have issued such an order to kill them first.
Moreover, the number of Demon Clan soldiers was beyond his imagination. With so many of them, even with Hongjun and the others helping, it wouldn't be easy to kill them all.
Rahou hadn't shown himself yet, which meant he was definitely making other arrangements.
This battle had to be resolved quickly.
Hongjun was also aware of this, and his face was grim as he said, "Fellow Daoists, hold nothing back."
"Quickly kill these Demon Clan soldiers blocking our path, so we can directly attack Mount Tianmo!"
"I'm worried Rahou is still setting up countermeasures against us."
Yang Mei and the others immediately nodded in agreement.
The three of them then used their powerful divine abilities, and terrifying power erupted, easily killing many Demon Clan experts.
But this number was only a drop in the ocean for the Demon Clan army.
Tongtian, facing so many enemies, had to act cautiously and decisively released the Innate Merit Treasure, the Heavenly Yellow Linglong Pagoda.
Light flowed on the pagoda, perfectly sheltering Tongtian's figure within it, and easily resisting a large number of offensive divine abilities.
The Demon Clan army was vast and mighty, directly engulfing the group within it.
A great battle instantly began.
Because of Mora's orders, a large number of Demon Clan experts directly targeted Laozi and Yuanshi.
All kinds of divine abilities and magic treasures poured out.
Most of the attacks came from Grand Luo Golden Immortals.
This made Laozi and Yuanshi feel a chill all over their bodies, and they couldn't help but curse in their hearts. Who the hell had they offended?
In this situation, shouldn't they be mainly attacking their teacher and those Primordial Golden Immortal powerhouses?
Why were they targeting them first?
The Demon Clan had no martial ethics at all!
"Die!"
At this moment, a loud shout rang out, and it was Mora who directly launched an attack. His Grand Luo Golden Immortal peak cultivation instantly suppressed Laozi and Yuanshi in place, making it difficult for them to even fight back.
They could only stare blankly as Mora killed his way to them
