Tongtian's Breakthrough, A Difficult Choice, Finally Arriving at Wu and Demon!

They're calling for backup!

Taiqing and Yuanshi are calling for backup!

Watching from below, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi saw this. One second, they were worried that the Sanqing were no match for the might of the Dutian God-Demon Array, their hearts twisted into knots, but the next, they felt a sudden sense of relief. Their eyebrows shot up, and they were all smiles.

"Sect Master Tongtian? That's right, Shangqing Tongtian once received the Four Swords of Immortal Slaying and the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram as a gift from the Dao Ancestor. He can set up the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation and contend with the Dutian God-Demon Array on equal footing!"

Before Tongtian had even arrived, Eastern Emperor Taiyi was already looking forward to it, his face unable to hide his excitement.

"Taiyi, your words are mistaken. Do not underestimate the power of this number one killing formation under the Heavenly Dao. It is rumored that the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram was transformed from the primordial chaos membrane and complements the Four Swords of Immortal Slaying. Once the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation is set up, it can control the killing power of the Heavenly Dao and possess world-shattering might. At that time... the Dutian God-Demon Array can be broken, and the Wu clan will lose their only trump card for wreaking havoc, and they will perish!"

Afterward, Di Jun, the "expert," chimed in to correct and educate.

He possessed the innate spiritual treasure, the River Diagram and Luo Book, which could deduce heavenly secrets and reveal many secrets of the Primordial Desolation. His understanding of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was even deeper.

His words were filled with apprehension towards the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

After speaking, he also began to look forward to it, his heart filled with excitement and joy.

"So that's how it is. If that's the case, then... the Wu clan is definitely doomed this time!"

After hearing this, Eastern Emperor Taiyi became even more excited.

Meanwhile.

On Jinao Island, within Biying Palace.

There was dead silence.

When Tongtian heard the urgent message from his two elder brothers, he delayed taking action.

He looked towards the direction of the Wu clan's battlefield, his brows furrowed, a look of difficulty on his face, as if he were struggling, lost in an internal conflict.

Not to mention that the Jie Sect and the Wu clan had no past grievances or enmity.

Let alone the Ancestor Witch Houtu, who, with her tiny, insignificant body and weak glow, dared to defy destiny, contend with the heavens, disobey the Dao Ancestor's unfair decree, and suppress all the Sages in the heavens!

Just this rebellious, unyielding will was enough for Tongtian to pay his respects.

"The Great Dao has fifty, and the heavens create forty-nine, which is the fixed number, with one escaping. Ancestor Witch Houtu's actions were only to seize a sliver of hope for the Wu clan, which is precisely in line with the Jie Sect's doctrine of going against the trend and intercepting one from the heavens?"

"If I go, I will be going against my true heart. If I don't go... I will be defying my master's orders and putting my brothers in a difficult position. This..."

Perhaps out of respect for Ancestor Witch Houtu, or perhaps a rare kindred spirit, Tongtian found himself in a dilemma.

One must know.

He wielded the Four Swords of Immortal Slaying and controlled the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram. Once set up, the Wu clan... would be in danger!

At that time, not only would all beings of the Wu clan fall into eternal damnation.

Even Houtu herself...

Would be eternally submerged in the cycle of reincarnation!

He, Tongtian, truly could not bear it!

"Tongtian, what are you waiting for! Dawdling around, are you going to watch us suffer and let these ants trample on the dignity of Sages as they please?! What... what are your intentions!!!"

Seeing that Tongtian had not made any move for a long time, Yuanshi Tianzun was furious. He immediately put on his elder brother's demeanor and sternly rebuked him.

In his opinion, suffering was a small matter, but losing face as a Sage was a big one!

Moreover, it was being trampled upon by a group of ants as lowly as mud from the earth, publicly desecrating the majesty of a Sage?

This was even more unbearable than killing him!

However...

It was precisely Yuanshi's words that completely enraged Chen Xuan!

This damn Yuanshi, he was exactly the same as his impression!

Hypocritical, arrogant, conceited, looking down on others, and utterly unbearable!

Today, he vowed to shatter all of that!

"Little Yuanshi, what are you barking about! From the beginning until now, you've called me a lowly ant, and I've tolerated it for a long time!!"

Not long after, bursts of majestic and sonorous thunder boomed through the vast, ancient starry sky—

"Even if I am but a speck of dust, today, I will stir up these billions of miles of starry rivers and overturn this Primordial Desolation world ruled by Sages!"

"Don't laugh at my life being like grass; today, I will poke a hole in this sky!"

"Even if I am just a mayfly, I will flap my wings and make the heavens and earth hear my voice!!!"

"Must the Wu clan be destined to be schemed against by you Sages? To be wantonly insulted and bullied by you? My fate is mine to control, not heaven's, to hell with fate!!"

"Yuanshi, give me your life—!!!"

The resounding words touched the hearts of all beings in heaven and earth.

If you can't find the book title, you can try searching for the author. Maybe the name has changed!

The rolling thunder madly assaulted the Dao Hearts of all the immortals and demons in the sky.

Like surging waves, like roaring mountains and seas, they rose and fell, never ceasing!

It made all who heard it shake off their deafness and awaken their minds!

And, with solemn reverence!

After Chen Xuan finished speaking.

In an instant.

The Dutian God-Demon Array displayed its divine might, the sky-filling blood mist surged like a prison, and infinite pressure swept across the universe, attacking Yuanshi like a tidal wave. The Pangu Banner's brilliance dimmed once more, and only muffled groans echoed endlessly. The Heavenly Venerable's robes were stained with blood, and he was forced to retreat in disarray.

The story splits into two paths.

Almost at the same time.

"Houtu!" The roar suddenly pierced through layers of void, resounding throughout Jinao Island.

In an instant, it exploded like thunder in Tongtian's sea of consciousness!

And at this very moment.

Mysterious Dao rhymes enveloped him, and he instantly entered a profound state of enlightenment.

"Crack!"

Not long after, a muffled sound like breaking glass suddenly emanated from within his body.

It was as if some shackles and restraints had been instantly broken!

Following this, his cultivation surged like a tidal wave, and pure energy swirled around him. He had actually achieved enlightenment and broken through to the Fourth Heaven of Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal at this moment!!!

"This..."

"Tongtian broke through at this moment!?"

"This is truly excellent! With this, our chances of breaking the formation have increased!"

"The Wu clan is truly done for this time! Hahahaha—"

"..."

Vast Hunyuan Qi instantly swept across the myriad heavens of the Primordial Desolation. The Sanqing were astonished, the two Golden Crows were excited, the assembled Sages were surprised, and even Dao Ancestor Hongjun was quite taken aback.

Only Tongtian was stunned for a moment. Then, instead of the expected joy of breaking through, he let out a wry smile, replaced by deeper turmoil.

Why?

It was because he knew that it was "Houtu's" impassioned words and her supreme, unyielding will that had become the catalyst for his enlightenment and breakthrough.

And this karmic debt was heavier than Mount Tai, impossible to repay!

If he were to attack the Wu clan now, wouldn't that be biting the hand that fed him?

But...

If he didn't act, his two elder brothers would be in mortal danger. How could the bond between the Sanqing be honored?

"Tongtian, what are you waiting for? Do you want your elder brother to die?!"

"Third Brother, if not now, then when!"

At this moment, within the Dutian God-Demon Array, the Taiji Diagram, the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda, the Pangu Banner... numerous divine treasures were swaying precariously. Taiqing and Yuanshi urged him on incessantly.

Every word struck Tongtian's heart.

It was too difficult to choose!

"Rebellious disciple, why don't you hurry to the Wu-Demon battlefield to rescue your two elder brothers, suppress the Wu clan, and restore order?"

Suddenly, Dao Ancestor Hongjun's ethereal Dao voice came from the Chaos Purple Heaven Palace.

Hearing this.

Despite Tongtian's myriad reluctance, he was forced to make a difficult choice.

A master's command was like a mountain, how could he disobey?

And the bond between the Sanqing, how could he disregard it?

"Fellow Daoist Houtu, I am sorry, truly sorry!"

Casting aside his chaotic thoughts.

On Jinao Island, waves surged, and amidst the crashing surf, a Daoist in a green robe sighed softly. His feet felt as if they were filled with lead as he took that step with extreme reluctance!

Rumble—
