In the void on one side of the Underworld.

When they saw the power of Yang Jian's Heavenly Eye erupt and break through the suppression of the Underworld's authority, both True Person Taiyi and Huanglong True Person were astonished.

Only Yuding True Person revealed a knowing look in his eyes.

But it was fleeting.

As Yuding True Person not know about the Heavenly Eye on Yang Jian's forehead?

Only...

Yuding True Person only knew that the Heavenly Eye was a powerful treasure that had evolved within Yang Jian's body.

But he couldn't guess the origin of this Heavenly Eye.

However, it must be an extremely powerful treasure, since even Yang Jian, at the Daluo Golden Immortal level, cannot fully control the divine power of the Heavenly Eye.

How could it possibly be an ordinary treasure?

However, Yuding True Person felt no joy at this moment.

Even if that Heavenly Eye is incredibly powerful, even if it allows Yang Jian, with his Daluo body, to possess the power of Quasi-Sage, but...

Yuding True Person cautiously glanced at Houtu was smiling gently to the side.

With this one present, let alone just possessing the power of a quasi -Quasi-Sage, even if a Quasi-Sage, no, ten or a hundred Quasi-Sage, came, it would be useless.

But what happened next was beyond Yuding True Person's expectations.

Houtu didn't make a move at all, or rather, Houtu didn't even need to make a move.

A female cultivator who emerged from the void effortlessly suppressed Yang Jian on the spot with a wave of her hand. Even the Heavenly Eye Power, which he considered unstoppable, was suppressed along with her.

"Quasi-Sage?"

Yuding True Person's heart skipped a beat, but then he became puzzled.

He wasn't surprised that there were Quasi-Sage in the Underworld; he and his fellow disciples had prepared to face Quasi-Sage before they came.

But...

The Quasi-Sage who is making his move now... is not from the Underworld at all... a ghost.

Although they rarely interact with the Netherworld Underworld, everyone in the Primordial World knows that the Underworld... does not recruit people from the Primordial World.

Even Daluo Golden Immortal and Quasi-Sage have no chance of joining the Underworld.

The Underworld... only ghosts can join it.

The numerous ghost emperors and deities in the Underworld today were all cultivated by the Underworld itself from scratch.

So...

Even if there are Quasi-Sage in the Underworld, they must be ghost Quasi-Sage.

However, the one who suppressed Yang Jian was not a ghost cultivator Quasi-Sage.

Yuding True Person was quite certain that he was not mistaken about this.

Meanwhile, True Person Taiyi and Huanglong True Person, like Yuding True Person, were looking at the person who had made the move in the distance with strange expressions.

However, compared to Yuding True Person, who joined Jade Void Jade Void Palace the shortest time and has few adventures in the Primordial World,

At this moment, both True Person Taiyi and Huanglong True Person recognized the Guiling who had made the move.

After all, the Guiling was no nobody in the Primordial World.

There is no one else in the entire Primordial World who could withstand Quasi-Sage powerhouse like the Great Witch Xiangliu while possessing the physique of Daluo Immortal.

Houtu, who was standing nearby, naturally saw what was happening before her.

Although her smile remained gentle, Houtu was inwardly astonished.

After all, even she hadn't expected that Yang Jian's Heavenly Eye Light would cross endless distances and appear right in front of Guiling and the others.

The Underworld is vast, and there are endless distances between its parts.

The odds of this happening are less than one in a billion.

If it weren't for the fact that she was the most powerful person in the Underworld, Houtu would even suspect that someone might have tampered with things.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

And just then...

Not far from Houtu, a crack quietly appeared in the void.

The Guiling emerged from the void rift.

Although she had seen it once before, Guiling still looked strange as Houtu witnessed Guiling easily tear through the void again.

Although she could tell that the method used by the Guiling was not the same as hers, which directly tore through the void, but rather a method she did not know.

Even so.

It is still enough to awe the Houtu.

She created the Underworld, and no one knew better than her how solid the void of the Underworld was.

To be honest, if it were her before she became a saint, or even if it were her elder brother, the Space Ancestral Witch Dijiang, they might not be able to teleport in the void of this underworld.

But this Guiling... so nonchalantly, it may not even have noticed the difference between the Underworld void and the Primordial World void.

Houtu could only sigh in her heart, "Truly worthy of being a disciple of the Elder of Changsheng."

"Houtu Daoist Houtu!"

Guiling called out softly.

"Fellow Houtu...?"

Yuding True Person, True Person Taiyi, and Huanglong True Person saw the Guiling that had suppressed Yang Jian emerge from the void.

And the moment they uttered the words "Houtu Daoist Houtu," everyone was shocked and stared at the Guiling in disbelief.

Houtu...

In the Primordial World, any cultivator with a bit of knowledge and intelligence would probably associate this name with the Sage of the Underworld and the Lady Pingxin.

How dare she... how could she address Houtu as a fellow Daoist?

However, this was something that the three of them had misunderstood.

Putting aside the fact that it was Houtu who first called out "fellow Daoist".

Even if we aren't, we're both on the path of seeking enlightenment, so what's wrong with calling each other "fellow Daoist"?

The term "fellow Daoist" has no inherently negative or positive connotation; it is simply a form of address.

As long as there is no difference in seniority such as master and disciple, even if one meets Dao Ancestor Hongjun, one can still address him as "fellow Daoist".

Hongjun wouldn't turn you to ashes for that, nor would he say something like, "How dare any Tom, Dick, or Harry call me a fellow Daoist?"

But...

As disciples of Celestial Venerable Yuanshi, as disciples of Sage, they had already placed the Sage's position far too high in their hearts.

This created a divide between the Sage and them, like heaven and earth, drawing an insurmountable chasm.

That's not good, even if...

This is true!

However, if this mindset is not gradually corrected later, then they are destined to have no chance of attaining enlightenment in this lifetime.

Without mentioning the psychological activities of the three True Person of the Chan Sect.

Here, the Guiling emerged from the void, holding in his hand the very same Small Thousand World that had suppressed Yang Jian.

Yang Jian, still in a mad state and not yet awake, was in this Small Thousand World.

"My disciple."

Yuding True Person, standing to the side, looked at Yang Jian in that Small Thousand World and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Yang Jian's master?

Upon hearing this, Guiling looked at Yuding True Person.

Then...

Late Daluo?

Guiling was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at Yang Jian, whom she had suppressed.

Within the Small Thousand World, the berserk Yang Jian relentlessly unleashed the power of his Heavenly Eye, unleashing attacks exceeding the level of Daluo Immortal who ravaged the Small Thousand World.

Guiling couldn't help but wonder, could Yang Jian's master really defeat Yang Jian?

Is this what they mean by the student surpassing the teacher?

Honestly, among the powerful beings of the Primordial World, it is extremely rare for a disciple's cultivation to surpass that of their master.

Especially this kind of time span of ten thousand years, which has already surpassed that of his master, is even rarer.

Despite harboring various grievances in his heart, Guiling never once glanced at Yuding True Person.

"Houtu Daoist Houtu, this madman who invaded the Underworld will be handed over to you, Houtu Daoist Houtu." The Guiling lifted the Small Thousand World and placed it into Houtu's hands.

As Houtu watched the Small Thousand World fly towards her, her gentle smile remained unchanged. She held the Small Thousand World directly in her hand with one hand.

Looking at Yang Jian, who was being suppressed, his gentle smile remained unchanged.

"Your move does bear some resemblance to your master's back then," Houtu said with a light laugh, looking at Guiling.

"Back then, your master lived in seclusion in the Primordial World, and almost no one in the Primordial World knew of your master's illustrious name."

"At that time, for some reason, the Demon Race Dijun clashed with your master, and that's how your master acted."

With every gesture, a world was created.

"Suppress the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation, which consists of the Demon Race Dijun, Taiyi, and hundreds of Daluo Demon Gods and Demon Sage."

"If your master hadn't held back back then, countless Demon Race would have perished at his hands."

"After that battle, your master's name became known throughout the Primordial World for the first time, making the powerful beings of the Primordial World aware for the first time that a great being was living in seclusion in the East Sea."

Houtu spoke softly, her voice tinged with a hint of emotion.

Before she became a saint, Houtu might have fantasized about what would have happened if Dijun, Taiyi, and most of the high-ranking members of the Demon Race had been destroyed in the East Sea.

Perhaps then there would have been no subsequent events, no war between the witches and demons, and the Witch Race, who once dominated the Primordial World, would not have ended up in their current state.

But after becoming a saint, Pingxin understood.

The decline of the Witch Race will not be affected by the state of the Demon Race.

The Witch-Demon Tribulation and the Lich Era were both fortuitous opportunity and a great calamity for the Lich and Lich races.

Regardless of which side of their races is affected by Karmic Luck in this era, even if Dijun Taiyi die.

Other Demon Emperor Demon Emperor will also emerge, leading the Demon Race to rise in the Primordial World and compete with their Witch Race.

After the Witch-Demon Tribulation begin, they are destined to decline and perish in the Primordial World.

This is fate.

Even now that she has become a saint, she cannot defy the will of Heaven.

Thinking this, Houtu's expression showed a slight hint of sadness that vanished in an instant.

As Sage, with her State of Mind, she did not collapse even when the Witch Race had just perished.

Now I will not dwell on the past, nor allow myself to feel down and regretful.

Then Houtu spoke softly.

The Yuding True Person, the True Person Taiyi, and the Huanglong True Person all showed surprise in their eyes.

This history is ultimately too distant.

So long ago, even those powerful cultivators who witnessed it firsthand have almost forgotten about it.

In addition, Ao Changsheng has been in seclusion for many years, cultivating and not traveling Primordial World.

This has resulted in almost none of the newly born cultivators in the entire Primordial World being aware of this matter.

The Guiling standing to the side also showed a look of surprise upon hearing Houtu's words.

Even she was unaware of this matter.

This surprised Guiling greatly.

Of course, it wasn't unexpected that her master would have such a glorious record.

It was her master who had never boasted to her, which was simply unbelievable.

"It seems that Guiling Guiling's master didn't tell you. Perhaps... in Changsheng Changsheng's eyes, that matter is not worth mentioning at all!"

"After all, for Changsheng, the Demon Race... is nothing at all." Houtu shook her head slightly and said softly.

"Perhaps!" Guiling couldn't deny it.

No one in the Primordial World knew her master's temperament better than she did.

The fact that she didn't brag about this matter suggests it wasn't something insignificant at all; perhaps she simply forgot about it.

Then came the communication between Houtu and Guiling.

This also sent wave after wave of shock through the hearts of the three True Person of the Chan Sect standing to the side.

They naturally knew who Dijun and Taiyi.

Although I never saw them in person, these two are recorded in the historical materials of the Jade Void Palace.

There is also the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation, which was the clan-protecting formation of the Demon Race back then.

In the Primordial World, there is even a world-shaking divine formation that has the potential to rival the number one Primordial World.

Such a person, such a formation, had actually been defeated by the master of this Guiling before them.

Furthermore, Houtu referred to him as the Elder of Changsheng.

Could it be...?

Is this Guiling's master Sage?

How is that possible?

Thinking of this, True Person Taiyi and Yuding True Person instinctively disbelieved it.

There were ten Sages in the Primordial World.

First and foremost is Dao Ancestor Hongjun who merged with the Heavenly Dao, and who is also the current founder of the Primordial World Mysterious Gate.

Then come the Three Purities Sage: Sage, the Grand Purity Celestial Venerable Daode Laozi; Jade Purity Celestial Venerable Yuanshi Sage Yuanshi; Supreme Purity Celestial Venerable Lingbao Sage Tongtian.

The two Western Saints, the Sage Jieyin and the Sage Zhunti.

The Sage Mother of Human Race, Nüwa; the Sage Human Race Holy Emperor, Fuxi.

And then there is Houtu, or rather, the Sage Pingxin of the Netherworld Underworld, who stands before them.

Apart from this, I have not heard of any other Sage.

"He's probably someone who was born early, took advantage of his seniority, and used his gun to bully the weak before the Demon Race grew powerful!"

These were the thoughts in the minds of True Person Taiyi and Yuding True Person at that moment.

At this moment, Huanglong True Person couldn't help but think of a legend, a legend about his Dragon Race.

Legend has it that deep within the East Sea lives a Dragon Race ancestor who has been cultivating in seclusion since time immemorial.

As for the ancestor's cultivation level, some say he was at the Peak Quasi-Sage, some say he was Sage, and some say he surpassed Sage.

In short, all sorts of rumors circulated.

In the past, Huanglong True Person did not have a very harmonious relationship with the Dragon Race, and thought it was just an absurd rumor.

As Dragon Race, Huanglong True Person naturally understands the nature of his Dragon Race, especially if there is a Sacred Dragon Race them.

They would probably have already been running rampant in the Primordial World, so why would they shrink back to the Four Seas and act in a low-key manner?

However...

Now, combining this with the previous conversation between Houtu and the Guiling, we can see the hidden powerhouse deep within the Primordial World.

"Could the legends among the Dragon Race be true?" Huanglong couldn't help but think.

Certainly.

Whether it was the disbelief of Yuding True Person and True Person Taiyi, or the speculation in the heart of Huanglong True Person.

To Guiling and Houtu, they were insignificant and not worth mentioning.

After handing Yang Jian over to Houtu, the Guiling had no intention of staying long.

Just by looking at the three Daluo of the Chan Sect standing to the side, Guiling knew that Houtu, or rather Pingxin, would have a lot to do next!

"Wait a minute."

As Guiling bid farewell, Houtu Guiling softly called out to him.

Then, under the astonished gaze of the Guiling, he raised his hand and made a sweeping motion in the void, and a familiar void rift suddenly opened.

In that instant, the Guiling's gaze involuntarily turned to the void rift.

Needless to say, the other end of this void rift is the true form of the Sage Pingxin of the Netherworld Underworld.

Houtu sent the Small Thousand World that was suppressing Yang Jian into the other end of the void rift. At the same time, a stream of light flew out of the void rift and fell into the Guiling's sea of consciousness.

"This is..."

At this moment, the Guiling's Primordial Spirit circulated rapidly, and in just an instant, it understood what this flowing light was.

This is a coordinate.

Coordinates outside the Netherworld Underworld.

Guiling raised his head in confusion and looked at the void rift.

However, the void rift had already disappeared, and everything had returned to normal.

Guiling turned to look at Houtu, but had not yet asked a question.

Houtu, still wearing a gentle smile, said softly, "When you reach Hell, you will naturally know what this is."

Having said that, without waiting for Guiling's reaction, he took the three Daluo of the Chan Sect and disappeared before Guiling's eyes.

Watching Houtu leave, Guiling remained silent for a moment before murmuring, "Do these senior masters... really like to only say half of what they mean?"
