Tongtian Meets Hongjun
Thirty-Three Heavens of heaven.
Passing through local water and fire, malevolent winds, heavy water, thunder, and deathly aura!
It was just a vast, white void.
It was as if nothingness existed, devoid of any sign of life.
The only thing that remained constant was the fluctuating spiritual energy, with the power of laws permeating every corner of this place.
Following the white, ethereal mist, we peered forward.
Then you will see an amazing building standing between the vast sky and the earth.
The building resembles a palace.
A misty, ethereal atmosphere, enveloped by auspicious clouds!
Purple energy gathers, exuding an aura of celestial power!
Magnificent and imposing!
Terrifying waves of law power were released from that palace!
It reveals the aura of a master over the world.
It unleashes an astonishingly powerful force!
This is no ordinary place.
It is indeed the Purple Cloud Palace!
The Daoist temple of Hongjun Primordial World, the first Heavenly Dao Sage in the Primordial World and the Dao Ancestor!
Inside the Purple Cloud Palace.
A misty, ethereal atmosphere pervaded the area.
Smoke and dust drifted in the air.
The terrifying laws of the Sage permeated every corner of the palace!
On the highest platform in the palace.
An old man was sitting there at that moment.
The old man was wearing an earth-yellow Daoist robe.
His hair and beard were a mix of black and white.
His face was as fair as jade, and his skin was incredibly delicate.
If it weren't for his white hair, it would be impossible to tell his age.
Now.
The old man sat there quietly, emanating no special aura.
But the surrounding laws and spiritual energy flowed past him.
They all seemed to have developed a kind of spiritual awareness.
They all submitted.
If you don't look in that direction.
They couldn't even detect the figure there!
This shows how formidable his strength is!
At a certain moment.
The secrets of Heavenly Dao suddenly trembled.
Hongjun, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, frowned.
Boom!
Hongjun's emotions fluctuated slightly for a moment.
Suddenly, thunder rumbled above the Purple Cloud Palace.
Even the surrounding opportunities and laws began to stir up trouble.
Obviously.
Every move Hongjun makes is enough to influence the power of heaven and earth!
The next moment.
Hongjun suddenly opened his eyes.
In the darkness of his eyes.
The twinkling of stars signifies their birth and destruction.
It seems to be the beginning of the Tao and the end of time.
It contains the profound and mysterious laws of heaven and earth!
Incredibly deep.
As it blinked slightly, several obscure and incomprehensible characters flashed continuously.
He seemed to sense something amiss, and slightly raised his head to look into the void.
The talisman was released from before his eyes.
"Oh?"
Hongjun uttered a soft question, but his expression remained unchanged.
"Yuanshi's actions have somewhat exceeded my expectations."
"Tongtian's temperament has changed drastically, daring to be the first to act against my will, Yuanshi is now attacking the Two Sages of the West?"
"Who exactly is behind this?"
"And who is interfering with the Investiture of the Gods?!"
She murmured to herself.
Hongjun's divine sense stirred slightly, and his brows immediately furrowed.
Thunder rumbled all around, and the situation became chaotic.
He ignored it.
"The secrets of heaven are becoming increasingly confusing!"
"The variables of the Investiture of the Gods Calamity are beyond even my comprehension."
Who is it?!
Just as Hongjun was thinking this,
Suddenly.
A young Daoist's voice came from the space ahead.
The voice was crisp and the tone respectful.
"Disciple Haotian reports to Master."
"The Sect Master Tongtian the Interception Sect has come to pay his respects, sir."
Tongtian?
It's finally here.
Hongjun waved his hand casually, and the great array formed by the terrifying magic formations of the Purple Cloud Palace slowly opened.
A majestic voice followed.
"Let him in."
The words had barely left his mouth.
A figure dressed in a blue Daoist robe.
They quickly arrived at the Purple Cloud Palace.
Without looking up at Hongjun, he stared straight ahead and cupped his hands in greeting.
"Disciple Tongtian greets Master."
They heard Tongtian's report.
Hongjun frowned, sensing that this time Tongtian was somewhat different.
It wasn't just that his aura was different.
And attitude...
Thinking of this, Hongjun's heart stirred.
During the Investiture of the Gods Calamity.
The existence of Tongtian is of paramount importance.
Therefore, when Tongtian attacked Yuanshi and the Two Sages of the West.
Hongjun then summoned him over.
The time for Investiture of the Gods upon the gods has not yet arrived, so how can the Four Saints possibly engage in a great war!?
Could it be that Tongtian is the variable?
Thinking of this...
A terrifying divine sense swept over Tongtian.
They wanted to learn something from Tongtian.
Apart from being slightly more focused than before, Tongtian's aura was otherwise unremarkable.
Hongjun, having returned empty-handed, swayed slightly.
His body was as thin as a fallen leaf.
It slowly descended from the high platform of the Purple Cloud Palace.
Finally, he stood before Tongtian, his tone somewhat displeased.
"Tongtian, why do you openly defy your master's wishes!?"
"For the sake of all living beings in the Primordial World and the stability of the Investiture of the Gods Calamity, I have issued a sacred decree forbidding Sage from intervening and preventing Sage from disrupting the order of the Primordial World!!"
"You actually dared to use the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords to fight against Yuanshi and the Two Sages of the West!"
"The Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, the ultimate weapons of slaughter that I gave you, are not meant for you to use like this!"
Upon hearing this...
Tongtian, who had traveled countless trillions of miles from the Primordial World Interception Sect to meet the Dao Ancestor at the Purple Cloud Palace, had a gleam in his eyes.
I remembered the words I had read in Great Dao Diary before.
He harbored some suspicion towards Hongjun.
He cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Hongjun.
"Since the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords cannot be used in this way, may I ask, Master, how do you intend for me to use the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords Formation?"
Boom!
As Tongtian finished speaking.
Suddenly.
A deafening roar of thunder echoed above the Purple Cloud Palace.
Hongjun's face also darkened completely.
His gaze toward Tongtian also carried a hint of anger.
This was the first time Tongtian had spoken to him in such a tone.
And what's more, they even dared to ask him a question in return!
What was the purpose of giving him the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords Formation of Immortal Execution?
What can it do?
Of course, it should be Four Saints attack...
Um!?
Thinking about this...
Hongjun was suddenly startled.
What does "Tongtian" mean!?
Did he find out about my plan!?
Impossible!
The Investiture of the Gods Calamity of the Gods.
No one could possibly know the secret behind it!
Thinking this way.
Looking at Tongtian's calm expression.
He flicked his sleeve forcefully.
A terrifying groan came from the ground, followed by Hongjun's angry voice.
"Tongtian! You've committed such a grave mistake, and you still dare to talk back!"
"Sage should never resort to violence!"
"Otherwise, the world will change, the Primordial World will be shattered, and all living beings in the Primordial World will suffer unspeakable pain!"
"Not only that, it will also affect your and the Interception Sect's fortune! The greater the calamity, the more stability is needed!"
"What did I, your master, admonish you before the great eon?!"
"You've done just that! Not only did you slay the Sage's Dharma body of the Yuanshi, but you also wreaked havoc with the Two Sages of the West! The heavens and earth have been shattered countless times by your sheer force!"
"The Four Immortal-Slaying Swords are incredibly powerful, can they really be used like that!?"
"If I hadn't appeared, would you have killed the Two Sages of the West on the spot as well!"
Hongjun's voice was filled with anger.
The surrounding phenomena and laws were in complete chaos; clearly, Hongjun was enraged.
Only.
Even so.
Tongtian's next response left Hongjun stunned on the spot!
