The Primordial World.

Inside the main hall of Mount Kunlun.

The Cult Master Tongtian suddenly raised his head in a daze, as if he had just sensed a sinister force from the Unseen.

Although he didn't sense any danger, he had a chilling feeling.

"Junior Brother Tongtian, look at the kind of disciples you've taken in! They're of lowly origins, ignorant of reason and law, and have turned this vast Mount Kunlun into a mess."

"This is truly tarnishing the reputation of us, the true descendants of Pangu."

In the main hall, Yuanshi Tianzun, his face grim, rebuked them in a deep voice.

As the Yuanshi among the Three Purities Ones who placed the greatest emphasis on lineage and origin, Yuanshi had long harbored deep resentment towards Tongtian's practice of accepting disciples regardless of their background or origin.

He could tolerate a small number of disciples who came from poor backgrounds but had good aptitude, but this time Tongtian brought back hundreds of disciples from his trip.

Surprisingly, most of them didn't even have the aptitude to become Daluo immortal).

The disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sage... didn't even have the aptitude to become Daluo Immortal.

How ridiculous!

What a shameful thing to do!

The reprimand from Yuanshi reached Tongtian's ears, and Tongtian immediately forgot the malice that had come from who-knows-where and retorted.

"Senior brother, none of your disciples are as skilled as my disciples Duobao and Wudang. What right do you have to criticize me?"

Although Tongtian doesn't care about background or Tongtian, he is still a Sage, so anyone he takes a liking to can't be a good-for-nothing.

Over countless years, time has passed, and the sands of time have washed away the gold.

Surprisingly, Duobao and Wudang, whom Tongtian had just mentioned, had already attained the Daluo.

When Celestial Venerable Yuanshi accepted disciples, he considered factors such as lineage, aptitude, comprehension, and fortuitous opportunity, and it took him a very long time to find a few suitable disciples.

Yuanshi himself knew that his disciples had not been cultivating for long enough to compare with the disciples of Tongtian who had been carefully taught for tens of thousands of years.

But Tongtian's words still infuriated Yuanshi, who immediately retorted angrily, "What... what kind of attitude is this? Do you still consider me your elder brother?"

"That's only if you treat me as your junior brother..."

If someone were to spend tens of thousands of yuan, they would be lectured by Yuanshi. Not to mention that Tongtian was not a good-tempered person to begin with, even if he were a good-tempered person, he probably wouldn't be able to stand it.

"You..."

"Okay, stop arguing!"

Just as the two were arguing fiercely, Laozi had been resting with his eyes closed, frowned slightly, opened his eyes, and spoke up to stop them.

"Yes, elder brother!"

"Yes, elder brother!"

As soon as Laozi spoke, Yuanshi and Tongtian immediately fell silent.

Although Laozi rarely speaks, he is undoubtedly highly respected by Yuanshi and Tongtian because of his status as their elder brother and his cultivation level as Sage that far surpasses theirs.

"So be it! Fate is against us..."

Laozi sighed as he looked at his two junior brothers, who, though now quiet, still stared at each other with Qi Ingestion resentment in their eyes.

"Although the three of us were all transformed from the Primordial Spirit of Pangu and have spent countless eons together, we have all attained sainthood. It is only natural that our beliefs differ."

"The Three Teachings have different doctrines; how can they coexist peacefully? If conflicts arise, how can the Three Teachings grow stronger? It's time for them to separate."

After saying this, Laozi stood up, took his cane, and walked out of the palace.

"Lotus, lotus root, and green lotus leaf— the Three Teachings were originally one family!"

Laozi's voice reached the palace from afar. Yuanshi and Tongtian exchanged a glance, and the hostility from their previous argument vanished.

"Since elder brother has made up his mind, then I will also find another place to practice!" Tongtian said somewhat dejectedly.

"I entrust this Mount Kunlun to you, Senior Brother. I hope you will manage it well."

Having said that, he turned and left the palace like Laozi Tzu. After leaving the main hall, a whisper echoed throughout Kunlun.

"Disciples of the Jie Sect, heed my command! Set off immediately and follow your master away from Mount Kunlun to find another place to cultivate."

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"...

As Tongtian's voice faded, figures riding divine light, Black Wind, and spiritual treasures flew out from all directions of Mount Kunlun, following behind Tongtian.

Mount Kunlun.

As the most supreme blessed land in the Primordial World, Mount Kunlun is naturally capable of supporting the Three Purities who have not yet become saints.

But as the Three Purities attained sainthood...

Even the Karmic Luck of such a blessed land could not support three Sages.

Especially since the three Sages each established a great religion, let alone Mount Kunlun, even Mount Buzhou before its collapse would probably not be able to support the Three Teachings and the three sages.

Originally, Laozi, as the eldest brother, gave the Mount Kunlun Daoist temple to his two younger brothers. As the second Yuanshi, Yuanshi should have given it to the youngest, Tongtian.

But...

Yuanshi really didn't want to give the dojo filled with the three of them's memories to Tongtian's 'chaotic' disciples.

That's why Tongtian was a step too late.

Gazing at the empty hall, Yuanshi's eyes were filled with melancholy. After a long while, he sighed deeply and murmured, "It's better to leave, it's better to leave..."

The separation of the Three Purities was not deliberately concealed.

Even though the secrets of heaven were unclear at this time, the news quickly reached the ears of many powerful beings in the Primordial World.

The West, Mount Sumeru.

If Zhunti were still here, he would surely be overjoyed to hear the news of the Three Purities Ones splitting up.

After all, the Three Purities Ones are one entity, so it would be much more difficult for them in the West to find people with affinity from the East or to find treasures with affinity.

However, the fact that the Three Purities seemed to be at odds at this time was naturally a cause for celebration.

But the bitterness on Jieyin's face deepened even more at this moment.

Gazing eastward, he seemed to see in his eyes that serene seeker of the Dao, resembling Hongjun himself.

"Laozi Brother Laozi... are you starting the setup now?"

Jieyin at the incarnation of Nüwa outside Mount Sumeru, his hands clasped together, he thought of his junior brother who was still being suppressed, and even the Sage man could not suppress the bitterness in his heart.

Outside Mount Sumeru.

The Nüwa watching here who Jieyin is certainly not the real Nüwa, but one avatar is enough.

As Heavenly Dao Sage, he can borrow the Power of the Heavenly Dao at any time in the Primordial World. Even as an avatar, his combat power is not much inferior to that of his true self.

Last time in the East Sea, that Zhunti also used the Power of the Heavenly Dao to launch a sneak attack and shatter Nüwa's incarnation.

Otherwise, it's hard to say who would win or lose!

Moreover, as long as Jieyin doesn't want to completely offend Nüwa and break off Jieyin, he is destined not to take action.

As for the news of the Three Purities Ones splitting up.

Nüwa, whether in her incarnation or in her true form, showed no interest whatsoever.

Perhaps to ordinary powerful beings in the Primordial World, the Three Purities have already separated, but in her eyes...

The Three Purities Ones are one entity, and this has never changed.

It is said that after leaving Mount Kunlun, Tongtian led a group of the Jie Sect eastward in search of a suitable place for their practice.

Only...

Sage are so revered that any blessed land that becomes Human Path is usually already owned in this era.

Tongtian was not the type to seize or plunder by force.

Traveling eastward until reaching the vast East Sea, I still couldn't find a satisfactory place.

On the shores of the East Sea.

Tongtian gazed at the vast East Sea, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes.

He sensed it.

In the East Sea, there is a place that is suitable to be his training ground.

However, at this time, the secrets of heaven were in chaos.

Even though he vaguely sensed the location of this place, finding it in the vast East Sea was no easy task.

His temple might even be located deep in the East Sea.

Tongtian couldn't help but think of Ao Changsheng, who was located deep in the East Sea.

Slightly hesitant...

"The East Sea is vast, that Changsheng senior shouldn't mind having another neighbor!" Tongtian thought to himself.

"Speaking of which, I have never visited Changsheng. According to my elder brother, Changsheng gave me some guidance when he became a saint."

"Now that we are settling in the East Sea, we should naturally pay a visit to Senior Changsheng."

Once Tongtian had this thought, he immediately made his decision. Turning to his disciples, he said, "You may all wait here. I will first go to the East Sea to visit a senior."

After saying this, without waiting for the disciples to react, he directly erected a divine cloud and flew towards the depths of the East Sea.

As soon as Tongtian left, the many disciples who had been put down breathed a sigh of relief.

This departure from Mount Kunlun to seek another place of practice was inexplicable to begin with, and the Cult Master Tongtian remained silent throughout the journey.

Even the direct disciples, Daoist Duobao and the Holy Mother Wudang, dared not ask Tongtian what had happened.

The other disciples didn't dare to even breathe loudly along the way.

"Senior Brother, what exactly is going on with Master and Senior Uncle? Why is our Jie Sect suddenly moving out of Mount Kunlun?"

Among the disciples of the Jie Sect, someone couldn't help but ask aloud.

"I don't know either..." Daoist Duobao shook his head, a hint of confusion on his face.

Although he was the senior disciple of the Jie Sect, he spent most of his time in seclusion in the Mount Kunlun cultivating. When he went out, he only Daoism his disciples how to cultivate.

He almost completely ignored worldly affairs.

The Holy Mother Wudang hesitated slightly before saying, "I might know something..."

"Before Master decided to leave Mount Kunlun, we disciples of the Jie Sect had actually just had a minor conflict with the disciples of the Chan Sect."

"Perhaps... it was because of this that Master decided to move away from Mount Kunlun!"

The Holy Mother Wudang wasn't entirely certain of what she said; compared to Daoist Duobao, she often handled the affairs of the Jie Sect on a daily basis.

Although the Jie Sect doesn't have many affairs at the moment.

But...

She usually handles the conflicts between the Jie Sect and the Chan Sect; otherwise... her senior brother, Daoist Duobao, wouldn't be able to cultivate in peace.

"A conflict with the Chan Sect? Is it serious?" Duobao Daoist Duobao frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

"It's not serious... just a minor conflict," said the Holy Mother Wudang.

That's why she hesitated.

Compared to their most serious conflicts with the Chan Sect, these are nothing to mention.

It shouldn't have led to such serious consequences.

Thinking of this, the Holy Mother Wudang added, "We've had tens of thousands of conflicts with the Chan Sect over the past tens of thousands of years; this conflict is hardly serious."

Duobao: "..."

"Tens of thousands of conflicts?" Duobao was stunned.

Although he had occasionally heard about conflicts between the disciples of the Jie Sect and the Chan Sect, he didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, the two Sages of the Chan and Jie sects were brothers.

The two sides should naturally get along well; in fact, he and Yun Zhongzi of the Chan Sect often discussed Daoist principles and were considered good friends.

Even if there are conflicts, they are at most minor conflicts between disciples.

But he never expected it.

The conflict between their Jie Sect and Chan Sect had become so serious.

Tens of thousands of yuan in meetings, tens of thousands of conflicts.

This resulted in a conflict between the Chan and Jie schools almost every epoch.

Do you think this is a competition between these two religions?

Unlike many disciples who were already familiar with the conflict between the Chan and Jie sects, Duobao now understood why their Jie Sect had moved away from Mount Kunlun.

Looking at the group of the Jie Sect disciples who were still unaware of what was going on, Duobao suppressed his anger, shook his head, and whispered in the direction where Cult Master Tongtian had left.

"It's good that you left, it's good that you left!"

Duobao only hoped that the conflict between the disciples would not affect the relationship between his master and his senior master.

Otherwise...

That is the great fault of them, the disciples.
