Defying Heaven with Comprehension, Creating the Grand Destiny Art, Shocking Lord Tongtian

Since there was no danger here, Hongxuan was relieved.

Those familiar faces from the past had long since passed away.

The only thing he cared about now was the Hengshan Tribe.

As for the tribe's people, their fates were up to them.

With a step, his figure vanished once more.

Hongxuan headed toward Buzhou Mountain.

In the Primordial Wilderness, atop a mountain towering a thousand zhang high, Hongxuan had sat in meditation for a thousand years.

"This should be the place!"

"According to the calculations of my Grand Deduction Art, the opportunity for the Metal Spirit Pearl lies here!"

"And only now is the best time for me to obtain the Metal Spirit Pearl!"

But what exactly was the opportunity indicated by the deduction?

Hongxuan had come to this mountain range a full thousand years ago.

All for that tiny sliver of opportunity shown by his deduction.

Before the right time arrived, no matter how Hongxuan searched, he found nothing.

It troubled him greatly.

It seemed he could only wait.

Fortunately, the wait would not be long.

A little quiet contemplation of the Yellow Court Scripture and study of the Eternal Dao Tome were enough to pass the time quickly.

Unfortunately, his Grand Deduction Art was still only in its infancy and had yet to reach true perfection.

Otherwise, his calculations would certainly have been more precise.

He would not have to be as vague as he was now.

It offered little assurance.

During this period of waiting,

Hongxuan did not forget to study the Yellow Court Scripture to temper his Dao Heart.

After all, when advancing to the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm, there was an exceptionally terrifying hurdle.

Questioning one's Dao Heart.

If one's Dao Heart was not firm, there was simply no possibility of breaking through.

Nearly seventy percent of Primordial Wilderness cultivators awaiting a breakthrough fell at this stage.

Of the remaining thirty percent, their comprehension of laws was incomplete.

As for condensing the Five Qi within the chest, that went without saying; the only difference was the level of one's potential.

If they had not fully condensed them, they were not even qualified to stand at the threshold of a breakthrough.

And now, Hongxuan had gradually begun to place greater importance on cultivation in these aspects, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

He spent the rest of his time comprehending the Eternal Dao Tome, the Destiny Compass, and a newly acquired Creation God Tree seed.

Over these thousand years, the Creation God Tree seed had begun growing into a young sapling.

Hongxuan even occasionally watered it with the life water from the Spirit Gathering Pool, a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, so that it could grow faster.

Yet even so, it had merely grown into a sapling.

One could imagine just how difficult it was for the Creation God Tree to grow.

Still, that did not hinder his comprehension of the Creation Law.

It would be even better if he could create the Grand Creation Art in the future.

However, it seemed that creating this divine ability himself was no easier than creating the Grand Destiny Art.

It seemed he should continue accumulating his foundation!

Just as he was cultivating in silence, several streaks of divine light suddenly sped in from the horizon.

"Hm?"

Hongxuan found it strange and could not help looking closely.

In the distance, a middle-aged man dressed in luxurious robes, resembling the wealthy landlords from Hongxuan's memories of his past life, was being pursued by five Daoists.

"Interesting. These five cultivate the Dao of the Five Elements, each specializing in one path. If the five join forces and achieve unity of the Five Elements, it will surely bring about a qualitative transformation."

With Hongxuan's discerning eye, he could tell that these five had their own opportunities and were quite extraordinary.

Although they could not compare to disciples of those great sects,

they still possessed their own standing.

The fellow being chased, however, seemed even stranger to Hongxuan.

Merely a Golden Immortal, yet he could still escape with his life while being jointly pursued by five Grand Golden Immortals.

Only Hongxuan knew that anyone capable of such a feat was no ordinary figure.

What shocked Hongxuan even more was that

the opportunity he had waited for so long had finally arrived.

The Grand Deduction Art had calculated that the Metal Spirit Pearl was actually on this "landlord."

However, out of caution,

Hongxuan did not reveal himself immediately. Instead, he watched to see what was going on.

Although that mysterious "landlord" was only a Golden Immortal, he was anything but simple.

He gave off an unfathomably mysterious feeling, as though he could not be seen through at all.

This made Hongxuan even more curious.

Someone capable of resisting his Illusion-Breaking Divine Eyes could hardly be simple.

At once, Hongxuan was not only determined to obtain the Metal Spirit Pearl on him, but also became curious about the man himself.

"Damn it! You damned ant! You're only a Golden Immortal, yet when you encountered us five brothers, you didn't obediently hand over the spiritual treasure in your possession! You made us expend such a price and waste so much effort on an ant like you. You truly deserve ten thousand deaths!"

"Once we catch you, we will make sure your soul and spirit are utterly destroyed!"

The Five Absolutes Daoists hated the fellow fleeing madly ahead of them to the bone.

The five of them were dignified Grand Golden Immortals, yet they could not even catch a single Golden Immortal.

They had even been toyed with by him several times.

If they did not recover their dignity, how could they continue making their way through the Primordial Wilderness?

At the same time, the Golden Fortune Daoist fleeing ahead was cursing furiously in his heart.

"What terrible luck! Why did I have to run into five such cursed bastards?"

At the same time, he was filled with bitter frustration.

He was a dignified high-grade Innate God, born at the very beginning of the Primordial Wilderness.

He had once been a lofty Grand Luo Golden Immortal, with the Quasi-Sage realm within reach.

Who would have thought that in a single search for an opportunity within a secret realm, he would nearly die and have his Dao extinguished?

Though he had fortunately escaped with his life in the end, he had never made another inch of progress thereafter, his Dao Path severed.

Not only that, his cultivation had gradually begun to decline.

From his original peak Grand Luo realm, he later fell to the early Grand Luo realm.

Then he fell again to the Grand Golden Immortal realm.

No matter how he searched for a solution, he could not resolve this fatal problem.

Now, he had miserably fallen all the way to the Golden Immortal realm.

He was even being chased in such a wretched state by people who had once been ants in his eyes.

Was there anyone in the entire Primordial Wilderness more unfortunate than him?!

He might as well have died outright.

Why did fate have to keep tormenting him like this?!

At times, he even felt the urge to end his own life, but the pride and unwillingness in his heart made him abandon the thought.

In truth, the Five Absolutes Daoists behind him merely coveted the Metal Spirit Pearl in his possession.

Golden Absolute Daoist, the eldest among the five brothers, cultivated the Dao of Metal and was exceptionally compatible with the Metal Spirit Pearl.
