Old Man, You Know What's Good for You!
Everything seemed to erupt in a single instant.
In this instant,
The terrifying and supreme pressure surged forth like a mighty flood.
It filled every corner of the Purple Cloud Palace.
A terrifying aura condensed, gradually encroaching upon the space of the Purple Cloud Palace.
An invisible pressure arose in an instant.
He wanted to crush everything in the entire Purple Cloud Palace, inch by inch, thread by thread, into dust.
Under this overwhelming pressure, the vast Purple Cloud Palace seemed to freeze instantly.
Everything was frozen in place.
"Ah!! Who is it?!"
An endless, overwhelming pressure crashed down from above.
The hunched old Daoist priest unleashed an unprecedented roar of fury.
His expression was filled with immense shock and anger.
He was shocked because he hadn't expected such a master to appear.
What's infuriating is that the other party was so arrogant and domineering!
Whoever dares to be so insolent in front of him is intolerable!
This is like an ant daring to challenge an elephant.
For an elephant, that would be an absolute disgrace.
Since you're an ant, you should just lie still on the ground!
How dare they challenge the gods?
"Insolent thing!"
You deserve to die!
The hunched old Daoist priest's body surged with Daoist power, and his tattered Daoist robe danced wildly.
"Heh, quite ambitious, but too bad you're useless!"
A slightly mocking voice echoed from the void.
The oppressive force that followed surged a hundredfold in an instant!
"Boom!"
"Crack!"
The boundless power surged forth, causing the entire space within the Purple Cloud Palace to tremble and become unbearable.
The hunchbacked old Daoist priest, who was directly involved, was already screaming in agony.
Unable to hold on any longer, both knees broke instantly, slamming into the ground.
Lack of self-confidence, fear, despair, and endless emotions.
A fleeting glimpse of that expression flashed across the hunched old Daoist priest's face.
For a split second, his mind seemed to freeze.
He couldn't even imagine that such a powerful expert could be born in the Primordial World.
An overwhelming fear rose in his heart and instantly filled his soul.
In the blink of an eye, he was completely consumed by fear.
That is the awe and fear that lower-level beings have for higher, stronger beings.
"No... it's impossible..."
The hunched old Daoist priest knelt on the ground, trembling and looking utterly pathetic.
"You... could it be... could it be the Supreme... I don't believe it?"
The hunched old Daoist priest trembled as he knelt on the ground, gazing up at the ceiling of the Purple Cloud Palace.
"The Supreme Primordial Unity?"
"Hehe, not yet."
Lin Yunji's leisurely voice rang out.
His figure then appeared to land casually outside the Purple Cloud Palace.
Then, step by step, they entered the hall.
Upon entering the Purple Cloud Palace, Lin Yunji bowed to the Old Ancestor Hongjun.
This was considered a greeting. The latter also nodded in acknowledgment to Lin Yunji.
After greeting Old Ancestor Hongjun, Lin Yunji walked up to the hunchbacked old Daoist priest.
Then, with a casual wave of his hand, a chair appeared behind him.
So Lin Yunji casually sat down in front of the hunched old Daoist priest, and crossed one Erlang over the other.
"From the Source Realm?"
Lin Yunji looked down at the hunched old Daoist kneeling before him and asked casually.
The hunchbacked old Daoist did not answer Lin Yunji's question.
He simply stared intently at Lin Yunji.
"What is your cultivation level?!"
"Enough with the nonsense. Am I asking you a question, or are you asking me?"
Lin Yunji frowned slightly and said with some displeasure.
The hunched old Daoist priest fell silent, but eventually he lowered his head.
"In reply to your question, this old Daoist indeed comes from the Source Realm."
"You're quite sensible."
Lin Yunji amused.
He thought that the old Daoist priest probably wouldn't just obediently admit defeat.
He might even say a few harsh words.
Phrases like, "Release me now, or I, from the Source Realm, will ensure your utter demise."
It seems this old Daoist priest is quite sensible.
At least they can accept reality and understand the principle of being at the mercy of others.
"Your Daoxing far surpasses mine; I am no match for you."
The old Daoist priest answered honestly once again.
Lin Yunji didn't even make a move; he suppressed him solely with his aura.
The difference in their cultivation levels was so great that it was almost like heaven and earth.
With such an astonishing difference in cultivation level, he couldn't possibly defeat Lin Yunji.
Even escaping from Lin Yunji's clutches was utterly impossible.
Naturally, the only way to save one's life is to behave oneself.
What are you doing in our Primordial World?
Lin Yunji said to the hunched old Daoist priest.
"Your Excellency, this old Daoist has come on the orders of Ancestor Wujie to find the Chaos Pearl, Chaos Supreme Treasure chaos."
The hunchbacked old Daoist priest answered honestly.
Who is the Ancestor Wujie?
Lin Yunji pressed for an answer.
Faced with Lin Yunji questioning, the hunchbacked old Daoist priest still dared not hide anything and quickly answered.
Through the hunchbacked old Daoist's answers, Lin Yunji quickly learned a great deal about the Source Realm.
Long, long ago, countless eons ago,
Within this universe, there exists a Hongmeng World.
This Hongmeng World is the center of all the heavens and earth.
The source of all Daoist practices, the sacred place that all practitioners yearn for.
But one day, for some unknown reason, the Hongmeng World shattered.
The shattering of the Hongmeng World triggered a terrible catastrophe.
A terrifying torrent of void devoured everything.
In the universe,
The endless great world and small worlds that are attached to the Hongmeng World,
They were all devastated and swallowed up in the void and Chaos.
In an instant, countless living beings were reduced to ashes.
In the Hongmeng World, even those powerful beings with profound cultivation could not escape their fate.
Countless powerful beings who had cultivated for countless ages perished in the cataclysm that shattered the Source Realm!
Only a very few people survived. The hunchbacked old Daoist priest was one of them.
The Origin Source Realm, which originally belonged to the Hongmeng World level, collapsed and broke into countless small fragments.
Most of the smaller fragments were swallowed by the void Chaos.
A few transformed into large and small worlds and drifted away into the Chaos.
The largest fragment is now the Source Realm.
Currently, there are five people in the Source Realm who have the highest cultivation level and status.
Legend has it that it was the combined efforts of these five that saved the fragments of the Source Realm.
However, the appearance and Daoist names of these five people...
The hunchbacked old Daoist priest had no idea, because he had never seen what those five people looked like before.
"You said you hadn't seen those five people,"
"We don't even know what they look like, or what their Daoist names are!!"
Lin Yunji frowned slightly, scrutinizing the hunched old Daoist priest with a somewhat suspicious gaze.
"Absolutely true! Please rest assured, I have no reason to deceive you."
The hunchbacked old Daoist priest quickly explained.
"The five Source Venerable are unfathomable; their Daoxing is beyond our comprehension."
"Legend has it that when they reach their level, they have already grasped the true meaning of the universe."
"Its very existence is already inconceivable."
