Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Fellow Daoist Qiongyun, what brings you here?
One sentence almost made Daoist Qiongyun turn around and run away.

A person's name, a tree's shadow, the prestige of Tongtian Kaiyuan Daojun was earned through countless battles of pure yang.

In all the myriad realms, some claim to be the best in swordsmanship, some to be the best in alchemy, some boast of boundless supernatural powers, and some claim to be unparalleled in creation.

But all of these people have rivals, and all of them have people who are not convinced.

Does your swordsmanship mean I'm inferior to yours?

You are skilled in alchemy, but can you refine my precious elixir?
No matter how much these people boast about themselves, there are always people who openly express their dissatisfaction. Some openly hurl insults, while others even come to their door to challenge them to a duel.

However, even in the Pure Yang Realm where no one is willing to concede to anyone else, Kaiyuan Daojun himself did not acknowledge that he was the number one in upholding the Dao, and even if some people secretly disagreed, they dared not say a word in public.

This is the Mysterious Law Connects Heaven and Opens the Origin Dao Lord.

Xuanfa Tongtian is not just his Taoist title, but also the best description of his strength: the number one person in the realm of upholding the Tao and practicing divine powers.

In this great calamity of the Xuanmen sect, facing the number one Dao holder without the participation of those at the Master level requires immense courage.

At least Qiongyun Daojun doesn't think he'd be a match for Kaiyuan Daojun. Let alone one of them, even two or three of them might not be a match for Kaiyuan Daojun.

After all, Daoist Qiongyun had a clear understanding of himself. It was one thing to bully those who had entered the Dao Pure Yang realm, but to fight against someone of the same level was futile and pointless.

This person who holds the number one Dao has actually taken the lives of several Dao-holding Pure Yang masters. In this situation, which is not the end of the Yuanhui era, to provoke a vicious person who has killed several Dao-holding Pure Yang masters is really asking for trouble.

"Um?!"

With a cold snort, Daoist Kaiyuan sent a chill down Qiongyun Daoist's spine. When facing Daoist Kaiyuan Daoist, Qiongyun Daoist sensed a pressure even greater and more terrifying than that of the Golden Palace Heavenly Emperor.

This is not because Kaiyuan Daojun is stronger than Jinque Tiandi, but because Jinque Tiandi has no intention of caring about the pure Yang realm of Qiongyun Daojun. His mastery of the Dao is unfathomable, and even if he appears gentle and natural, he still possesses the majesty to rule over all realms and control the universe.

Kaiyuan Daojun, on the other hand, revealed the most direct and coldest killing intent. This killing intent was particularly fierce and chilling, making Qiongyun Daojun shudder.

Looking at Kaiyuan Daojun before him, Qiongyun Daojun was about to offer some explanation when a sharp voice suddenly rang out: "Fellow Daoist Qiongyun, why waste your breath on this Kaiyuan?"

"Kaiyuan, today I, the King, will test your skill in upholding the Dao!"

Before the words were finished, a violent and incomparable force shattered the chaos and came crashing down. A pillar of crimson gold and flowing flames broke through the light and crashed down, with incomparable flames swirling on it, carrying the power to shatter mountains and rivers, and was determined to smash the head of the Kaiyuan Daojun in one blow.

Kaiyuan Daojun merely snorted coldly, raised his hand, and his right hand transformed into a starry river palm spanning billions of miles, forcefully grasping the crimson-gold pillar that had swept across thousands of armies and shattered mountains and rivers. Ignoring the raging flames that burned all things, ignoring the surging and violent force, he stopped this pure yang treasure with a single palm strike.

Immediately afterwards, Daoist Kaiyuan grabbed the crimson-gold pillar with one hand and pulled it sharply, pulling a figure out of the chaotic void.

Qiongyun Daojun looked up and saw that the figure was extremely tall, with bulging muscles and unparalleled strength. He was white-haired and naked, covered in fine hair, with a single white horn and beard on his white head. His hands and feet were wrapped in fire, and his body was covered in vermilion patterns. A tail behind him was swirling with chaotic thunder and fire. His fierce and violent aura roared over, shaking the chaotic universe.

Qiongyun Daojun had already recognized its origin: Zhu Yan Zun, the Primordial Saint who wields thunder and fire, and possesses unparalleled strength.

He is the Great Sage of the Great Wilderness Realm, the Golden-Melting Vermilion Demon!
This great sage despised the human race, revered strength and power, and respected the law of the jungle. He roamed the heavens, incomparably powerful.

Moreover, this person is a true practitioner of the Dao.

At this moment, the Great Sage Zhu Yan, who advocated might and power and followed the law of the jungle, appeared majestic and ferocious, but beneath his rage and ruthlessness lay a trace of fear and suspicion.

But Zhu Yan Great Sage was seen gripping the crimson-gold pillar of heaven tightly with both hands, trying to pull it back. However, Kaiyuan Daojun held onto the other end of the pillar with one hand and refused to let go. Despite Zhu Yan Great Sage's best efforts, he could not move an inch!
It should be known that this crimson gold pillar is the pure yang treasure of the Great Sage Zhu Yan, and is called the Crimson Gold Heavenly Staff.

This is the natal magic weapon of the Great Sage Zhu Yan. It can change size according to his will, and can overturn rivers and seas and penetrate heaven and earth. It is truly boundless in its supernatural powers.

Moreover, it is engulfed in raging flames that can burn mountains and boil seas, scorching foreign enemies.

However, Lord Kaiyuan, holding the crimson gold Hun Tian Cudgel in one hand, ignored the raging flames and easily put the Great Sage Zhu Yan in a dilemma.

Zhu Yan was both shocked and furious. He never expected that Kaiyuan Daojun would be so powerful, which was truly unexpected.

Kaiyuan Daojun glanced coldly at Qiongyun Daojun, and seeing Qiongyun Daojun's horrified expression, he turned to look at Zhuyan Dasheng: "Zhuyan, who gave you the audacity to come and be my enemy?"

"Are you tired of living and don't just stay obediently in the Great Wilderness Realm?"

Before he finished speaking, Kaiyuan Daojun grasped the universe with his other hand, and billions of chaotic thunder and fires gathered in his palm. Boundless pure yang Daoist energy converged into a single point, transforming into a brilliant golden seal in Kaiyuan Daojun's left palm.

"Take this strike of my Myriad Stars Heaven-Opening Seal!"

In an instant, the golden Dharma Seal was unleashed by Daoist Kaiyuan. The seal expanded in mid-air to a size of hundreds of millions of miles, its surface shimmering with countless stars, seemingly containing the sun within. Its blazing, pure Yang power pressed down, like a vast galaxy of stars crushing down, making even the Great Sage Zhu Yan find it difficult to breathe. As the Great Sage Zhu Yan was horrified, he heard the sound of surging waves echoing throughout the chaotic universe.

In an instant, the vast ocean surged into the chaotic void, accompanied by the resounding roar of dragons. Twelve dragons rode the water and spurred the raging waves to stop the Myriad Stars Opening Heaven Seal that was suppressing the Great Sage Zhu Yan.

However, even when faced with the raging waves, the Myriad Stars Heaven-Opening Seal remained unmoved, pressing down on itself and smashing straight towards the top of Zhu Yan's head.

At this moment, a large azure halberd, engraved with the marks of a celestial dragon and various Daoist and spiritual symbols, finally flew out from the chaotic waves.

The halberd is divided into three prongs, engraved with water-related patterns and various seal scripts. Where the three prongs fit into the halberd body, a glittering dragon pearl is inlaid. The halberd body is wrapped with dragon patterns, as if a real dragon is coiled around it. The tail is like a dragon's tail, tapering into a sharp cone.

The moment the halberd flew out, a series of dragon roars resounded, stirring up turbulent waves in the azure sea and unleashing the power of the Great Dao, forcibly blocking the Myriad Stars Opening Heaven Seal.

Suddenly, a true dragon emerged from the vast ocean, its mouth swallowing the Milky Way.

As the halberd blocked the Myriad Stars Opening Heaven Seal, the Great Sage Zhu Yan also took the opportunity to forcibly pull back his Crimson Gold Hun Tian Staff, while retreating and staring at the Dao Lord Kaiyuan with extreme vigilance.

However, Daoist Kaiyuan had already ignored the blustering but cowardly Great Sage Zhu Yan. He slowly turned around and looked at the surging blue sea.

"I thought that apart from the Golden Roc and the Poisonous Owl, there were no fools in the Great Wilderness Realm who would throw their lives away."

"I never expected to encounter Zhu Yan here, whose brain is nothing but muscles."

"Just when I thought Zhu Yan was the last fool, I never expected there were still experts out there!"

As he spoke, Daoist Kaiyuan raised his hand and made a grasping motion, and the Heavenly River Boundary Ruler, which divides the starry river and measures time, condensed.

Kaiyuan Daojun held the Heavenly River Boundary Ruler and smashed it down on the surging blue sea in front of him, creating a monstrous wave that could overturn all realms, and also smashing out the figure hidden in the vast sea.

"You old dragon, where do you get the audacity to block my path?!"

In an instant, the turbulent blue sea was parted by the immense power of the Heavenly River Boundary Ruler, the Milky Way manifested, time roared, and a figure leaped out, looking slightly disheveled, and raised his hand to grasp the halberd.

Qiongyun Daojun, who was watching the battle from the side, looked up and saw that the person wearing a Heavenly Dragon Crown and a Five Dragon Robe was a Dragon King who had reached the Dao Realm!

In the Great Wilderness Realm, there is only one Dragon King who has reached the Dao Realm: the Great Sage of the Reverse Sea Flood Dragon!

Once its origin was recognized, the azure three-pronged halberd became clear: the pure Yang treasure of the Great Sage of the Reverse Sea Dragon, the Sea-Suppressing Heavenly Dragon Halberd!
The Great Sage Who Melts Gold and Begs, the Great Sage Who Reverses the Sea Dragon.

Qiongyun Daojun looked at the two great saints of the demon race with surprise and doubt. Who was the master who could persuade these two to come and stop Kaiyuan Daojun?
This cannot be accomplished with just a few words or a bunch of promises.

Although Daoist Qiongyun prided himself on his eloquence, even if he argued until the heavens broke, he could not persuade the two great saints of the demon race who had reached the Dao realm.

How did that expert manage to persuade these two to come?

Not to mention Qiongyun Daojun's curiosity, Kaiyuan Daojun was also curious at this moment: who could possibly invite these two guys to stop him?

After revealing his true form, the Great Sage of the Reverse Sea Dragon did not say much, but simply said, "This calamity of the Xuanmen has affected the entire universe, and what it involves is far more than just the Nine Realms of the Xuanmen."

"My Great Wilderness Realm is already mired in a quagmire, so what's the point of having so many things to say?"

"Zhu Yan, let's join forces and test the methods of the Kaiyuan Dao Lord, who is the number one in upholding the Dao!"

Having said that, the old Dragon King, wielding the Sea-Suppressing Heavenly Dragon Halberd, charged towards Kaiyuan Daojun first.

Zhu Yan, the Great Sage, was initially somewhat wary, but seeing that even the old Dragon King, the Great Sage of the Reverse Sea Dragon, had taken the lead so bravely, that trace of wariness was instantly replaced by rage. He roared to the sky, and his huge, burly, and ferocious demonic body leaped high into the air. His two large hands, burning with crimson flames and flowing with vermilion patterns, grabbed the Crimson Gold Hun Tian Staff and smashed it fiercely at Kaiyuan Daojun.

At this moment, the Great Sage of the Reverse Sea Flood Dragon and the Great Sage of the Molten Gold Crimson Demon attacked from the left and right, high and low, respectively. The surging blood and thick, fierce demonic energy of the demon race's Great Sages burst forth. In the chaotic heavens, a ferocious old dragon that stretched for hundreds of millions of miles in the void and a chaotic demon monkey with bulging muscles and bristling hair shook the universe and shattered time.

The chaotic void trembled and fell silent.

Meanwhile, in the void, the handsome Taoist priest in black robes and a crown of ink watched this scene with a smile:
"Not enough, not enough."

"Old Dragon and this monkey alone can't stop Kaiyuan."

"It still needs to be done."

"That one." (End of Chapter)
