Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

The North Star points to the Big Dipper; certain death awaits!
As the Golden Mother Yuanjun pointed her Nine Lights Yuanzun Sword, a tall and majestic deity appeared in the Northern Palace position guarded by the Tianhe Dao Sect within the Beichen Pointing Star Fate Formation.

The divine being, wearing a crown and armor, stood atop a chariot, his hands gripping a sword, resembling an emperor who could decide life and death.

Upon closer inspection, one would discover that this divine being was formed from countless Dao traces and spiritual patterns within the Beichen Diandou Siming Grand Array. After the Dao traces of various Great Daos, such as the Dao of Cause and Effect, the Dao of Fate, the Dao of Fortune, and the Dao of Calamity, converged to form this divine being, the power of life and death, nurtured by the power of all these Great Daos, descended from the sky under the control of the Golden Mother Yuanjun.

At this moment, within the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array, one could see four Dao Lords holding the Dao, high above, seemingly eternal and unchanging, governing the four seasons of the Heavenly Dao. One could also see four Pure Yang beings who had entered the Dao, dividing the four directions, changing the stars, and suppressing the four poles.

The Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array, composed of four Dao Lords who uphold the Dao and four Dao Lords who enter the Dao, is magnificent and ever-changing. Among the countless arrays of the lower and middle realms, one after another immortal arrays of the upper three realms rotate endlessly, suppressing the thirteen Pure Yang Dao Lords of the Eastern Heaven Daoist School.

The surviving disciples of the seven Xuanmen sects—Qiankun Daozong, Kongtong Daozong, Huayun Daozong, Tianyuan Shengzong, Daoyi Palace, Yinyang Zhengzong, and Yuanyang Daozong—presided over the various immortal formations. Watching the Dao Lords of the Eastern Heaven Daoist School struggle and fight their way through the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Formation, their initial fear and dismay at the loss of their respective patriarchs gradually gave way to a strange sense of pleasure.
Even if he is the Pure Yang Dao Lord, so what?

They were trapped in the great formation by these remnants of the Seven Sects and couldn't get out.
"hehe."

"They called us remnants and chased us relentlessly through Cangzhou, leaving us nowhere to run. Now it's their turn to flee."

Dao Yi Palace's Hua Ri Zhenjun sneered, feeling extremely pleased with himself.

All the existing True Lords of Dao Yi Palace entered the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array. At this time, True Lord Woyue, True Lord Pingfeng, True Lord Dengkong, and others, along with He Huari, each presided over a Celestial Array. With the power of several Celestial Arrays, they cooperated with Dao Lord Kongyu to suppress Dao Lord Xuanming of Penglai Dao Sect.

Within the formation, Xuanming Daojun was suppressed by the left and right immortal formations and could not escape. Kongyu Daojun did not show himself to fight Xuanming Daojun, but used the power of the formation to wear him down little by little until Xuanming Daojun died.

Within the grand formation, thousands of dragons and phoenixes danced and soared through the air. These dragons and phoenixes were all formed from the formation, spewing out the essence of heaven and earth, stirring up fierce winds and spiritual energy, and constantly eroding the magical power of Xuanming Daojun.

As a sword light soared up, countless sword threads transformed into countless sword threads that traversed the heavens and earth, sweeping across the eight wastelands and annihilating all the dragons and phoenixes in the world. Only the fragmented void pierced by the sword threads remained, slowly healing under the operation of the formation.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanming, your methods are truly impressive, but how long can you hold out?"

"This great formation is already anchored to the past. You cannot rewind time within it, so what's the use of destroying countless futures?"

When Kongyu Daojun's voice came, Xuanming Daojun only snorted coldly. Looking up, he saw that Kongyu Daojun had not appeared at all. All around him were the great formations, with lions and tigers roaring and dragons and phoenixes crying. The formations sealed off the heavens and earth and shifted the void, making it difficult for him to escape.

"Kongyu, how many years has it been?"

"Besides resorting to these underhanded tactics, what else do you have left?"

"They don't even dare to come out and fight me in their true form. They're really getting more and more backward as they get older."

Xuanming Daojun spoke disdainfully, but in secret he had already spread his divine sense to the extreme, discerning everything in this great array. If there was any disharmony or fluctuation, Xuanming Daojun could grasp Kongyu Daojun's location and then launch a thunderous attack.

What Xuanming Daojun didn't expect was that Kongyu Daojun said quietly, "Fellow Daoist Xuanming, don't waste your time. I have experienced your sword skills and I will not show myself."

"If you can't exhaust your magic power in three to five years, then it will take three to five hundred years, three to five thousand years. There will come a day when you can't hold on any longer."

"Well, it's time for you to demonstrate your swordsmanship again, fellow Daoist."

As Daoist Kongyu slid down, the void that had been torn apart by Daoist Xuanming had been completely healed. The thousands of dragons and phoenixes that had been wiped out reappeared in the world, continuing to spew fierce winds and spiritual energy at Daoist Xuanming, using the power of heaven and earth to constantly wear down Daoist Xuanming's power, so that Daoist Xuanming would never have a moment's rest.

Xuanming Daojun gazed at the overwhelming gale-force winds and spiritual energy, but gripped the Youlong Sword in his hand tightly: "Three to five hundred years, three to five thousand years?"

"Your grand formation has been able to trap my Eastern Heaven Daoist Pure Yang Sect members for so long?"

As he spoke, Xuanming Daojun was about to draw his sword, but at the last moment, Xuanming Daojun seemed to sense something in his heart and pressed down on the scabbard.

This scene surprised Daoist Kongyu, who was hiding within the great formation: "Hmm?"

But then Xuanming Daojun chuckled lightly: "Kongyu, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait that long."

"You seem to have forgotten that my Kaiyuan Daojun of the Eastern Heaven Daoist School is still outside."

Upon hearing this, Daoist Kongyu felt a sudden tremor in his heart: Had he truly been in the Nine Provinces Realm for too long, and been blinded by the calamity energy, forgetting that fierce god Kaiyuan?!

Just as Daoist Kongyu was shocked, a ray of starlight descended from the sky and disappeared into the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array.

In an instant, Daoist Kongyu sensed an astonishing power of life and death: "Not good!"

At this moment, the starlight had already enveloped the remaining Upper Three Realms True Monarchs of Dao Yi Palace, including True Monarch Hua Ri, True Monarch Wo Yue, True Monarch Ping Feng, and True Monarch Deng Kong.

Just moments before, Hua Ri Zhenjun was secretly mocking Xuan Ming Daojun for only being able to struggle within the great formation. But the next moment, he seemed to see the dazzling Big Dipper Palace in the starry sea outside the great formation, and he saw that indifferent and majestic god.

In an instant, a cold and indifferent Daoist voice rang in his ears.

"By pointing to the North Star, death is inevitable!"

In an instant, as the starlight washed over him, Hua Ri Zhenjun, a Five Tribulation True Lord who had already attained the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top and the Five Qi Converging at the Origin, found that his immortal lifespan had lost that sense of immortality and decay.

In a moment of horror, Hua Ri Zhenjun transformed into a withered and decaying old man, and the five signs of decay of heaven and man once again struck him, causing Hua Ri Zhenjun to perish on the spot and dissipate into endless spiritual energy.

At the same time, the other True Lords of Dao Yi Palace, such as the True Lord of Holding the Moon, the True Lord of Relying on the Wind, and the True Lord of Ascending to the Sky, regardless of whether they were in the Integration Realm or the Refining Void Realm, whether they had attained immortality or had achieved the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, all had their lifespans end under that ray of starlight.

The Void Refining Realm faced the three calamities of the Void Refining Realm again, and the Body Integration Realm faced the five tribulations of the Body Integration Realm again. The remaining members of the Dao Yi Palace in the three upper realms perished together, with no one escaping!
The disciples and followers of Dao Yi Palace who were in the middle and lower six realms were instantly turned to ashes without uttering a sound as they were swept away by the starlight!
In an instant, the great formations that assisted Daoist Kongyu lost their presiding True Lord, and the entire Pure Yang-level formation began to fall into chaos.

In his panic, Daoist Kongyu hurriedly stabilized the formation, only to hear Daoist Xuanming chuckle: "Fellow Daoist Kongyu, your great formation is probably about to fall apart?"

As he spoke, the Bright Silver Dragon Sword in Xuanming Daojun's hand burst forth with brilliant sword light. This pure Yang treasure of Xuanming Daojun activated the Great Dao of the Sword. As the brilliant sword light pierced through the heavy clouds, billions of sword radiance condensed into a roaring dragon and pounced.

Meanwhile, in other locations of the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array.

All the True Lords of the Upper Three Realms of the Seven Xuanmen Sects, including the True Lords of the Heavenly Origin Holy Sect (Virtuous Light True Lord, Illuminating Darkness True Lord, and Constant Snow True Lord), the True Lords of the Yin-Yang Orthodox Sect (Bright Fire True Lord, Heavenly Yang True Lord, and Thunder-Walking True Lord), and the True Lords of the Yuan Yang Dao Sect (Observing Constant True Lord and Flowing Bath True Lord), perished under the starlight if they did not receive timely protection from the Pure Yang level.

Even a Mahayana Immortal Lord, who is said to have a lifespan equal to the heavens, cannot escape the inevitable end of his lifespan and turn to dust unless a Pure Yang being intervenes. The Beichen Pointing Star Fate Formation, under the command of the Golden Mother Primordial Lord, crippled 70% of the Upper Three Realms True Lords in the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Formation with just one strike, while no less than 90% of the disciples and followers in the Middle and Lower Six Realms were wiped out.

At this time, the disciples of the middle and lower six realms of the seven sects of Xuanmen were no longer able to maintain the normal operation of the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array, and the surviving True Monarchs of the upper three realms were also powerless to maintain the immortal arrays.

If it weren't for the eight Pure Yang cultivators guarding this Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array, it would have collapsed the moment the Golden Mother Yuanjun made her move.

Even though this great formation still seems to reach the heavens and the earth, no one can guarantee how long it can last.

Jinmu Yuanjun sensed the changes in the aura of the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array, nodded in satisfaction, and once again activated the Nine Lights Yuanzun Sword: "Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array?"

"Fallen Starlight, brush it upon me!"

In an instant, another mighty stream of falling starlight swept down. At this moment, the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array finally changed. Streams of profound light shot into the sky and transformed into countless intertwined Teng Snakes, attempting to block the falling starlight containing the power of life and death.

At this moment, Daoist Qiongyun shouted, "The Misty Flowing Clouds Trapping Immortal Formation, activate!"

In an instant, under the guidance of Ye Wenshu, Xiaogong, and others, countless flowing clouds swirled and soared into the sky, transforming into countless cloud chains that entangled the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array. At this moment, as the Teng Snakes intertwined within the array, the flowing clouds transformed into countless cloud cranes that pounced, using their cloud crane energy to prey on the Teng Snakes, leaving Qian Tian Daojun and the others with no power to resist.

In an instant, countless cloud cranes spread their wings and flew, using their beaks and sharp claws to catch the Teng Snakes. The intertwined Teng Snakes became extremely sparse under the capture of the cloud cranes, and could not stop that falling starlight at all.

As the falling starlight washed down, the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array began to tremble once more.

Within the grand formation, Xuanming Daojun, Junming Daojun, Xuanjian Daojun, along with Xiaoshi Luohan, Chaoyin Bodhisattva, and Shenfeng Dasheng, combined their pure Yang power to begin destroying the formation from within. Meanwhile, Yueheng Daojun, Miaoyan Daojun, Dejing Daojun, Chixiao Daojun, as well as Jianglong Luohan, Jinchan Bodhisattva, and Wuxing Dasheng, also began to calmly engage with Qiantian Daojun and the others, rendering them unable to maintain the formation.

Since ancient times, large formations have been divided into two categories: defensive formations, enemy-trapping formations, and enemy-killing formations.

One type can be set up at a chosen location, with an extremely powerful interior containing various illusionary and trapping spells that can trap and kill enemies; the other type can be passively set up like a mountain-guarding formation, which is fragile inside but extremely powerful outside, capable of defending against powerful enemies and blocking large armies.

The Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Formation originally belonged to the Mountain Guarding Formation, which was extremely powerful on the outside but fragile on the inside.

After falling into the hands of Qian Tian Dao Jun, he changed the formation several times, turning it into a killing formation that actively traps and kills enemies. Unfortunately, this made the powerful external means of the Wanfa Xuantian Great Formation weak, and its originally thin internal structure could not achieve the desired effect.

Now, after several years, the changes inside the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array have long been understood by Daoist Dejing and other powerful Daoists. As Jinmu Yuanjun and Qiongyun Daojun attacked the array from the outside, Daoist Yueheng, Daoist Dejing, Daoist Miaoyan, and Daoist Chixiao naturally launched a counterattack from within.

As the powerful Dao-holding beings unleashed their various abilities, the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Array, which had originally covered a large part of Cangzhou, gradually crumbled in the clash among Dao-holding realms, unable to maintain its former grandeur. The Great Sage Tianpeng, who was struggling to hold on within the array, couldn't help but look at Dao Lord Qiantian: "Qiantian! Your array only protects against internal threats, not external ones. Now that Kaiyuan and the Golden Mother are about to break in, what are we going to do?!"

Before the Great Sage Tianpeng could finish speaking, the voice of the Bodhisattva Golden Cicada rang out.

"Benefactor Tianpeng! The sea of ​​suffering is boundless, but turning back is the shore!"

"Don't struggle on. There is still a Golden Roc Bodhisattva position in my Golden Zen Temple that no one can sit on. If you, Tianpeng, turn back, this humble monk is willing to give you this position."

Hearing the voice of the Golden Cicada Bodhisattva, the Great Sage Tianpeng's eyes almost turned red. He was a perfectly fine Great Sage of the Demon Clan, living a carefree life. Did they really think he was crazy enough to go to the Golden Zen Temple to become a clay sculpture sitting on a lotus platform?
"Old man Jin Chan, you still want to take me back?"

"Keep dreaming!"

As Tianpeng the Great Sage spoke, he reached out and the Gengjin Yuehuo Spear appeared in his hand. Then, this demon race great sage activated all his magic power, summoned the Golden Flame Heavenly Fire, and propelled the Qi of the Gale. The power of the three Great Daos—the Great Dao of Fire, the Great Dao of Wind, and the Great Dao of Metal—was used by Tianpeng the Great Sage, making the Gengjin Yuehuo Spear even more dazzling, like a blazing sun.

In an instant, the Great Sage Tianpeng threw out the Gengjin Yuehuo Spear. This pure Yang treasure drew upon the power of metal and fire, and with the help of the gale, it pierced through countless times and spanned immeasurable time, determined to compete with the Golden Cicada Bodhisattva.

Seeing this, the Golden Cicada Bodhisattva sighed helplessly, raised his palm and pushed, and billions of miles of shimmering light burst forth, which then transformed into a shimmering treasure mountain inlaid with countless agates, tridacna shells, gemstones and jade, which suppressed time and space and blocked the Gengjin Yue Fire Spear that intended to destroy heaven and earth.

When the Golden Cicada Bodhisattva looked up, the Great Sage Tianpeng was still nowhere to be seen!
This great sage of the demon race, who had reached the Dao realm, actually abandoned his pure Yang treasure at the last moment and ran away with the Golden Flame Heaven-Illuminating Mirror!
The Great Sage Tianpeng ran incredibly fast with a flap of his wings, but Dao Lord Qiantian, Dao Lord Tianxuan, Dao Lord Tianyu, and Dao Lord Tianxing were stuck in a dilemma. Dao Lord Tianxuan was stunned for a moment, then burst into curses: "That bastard Tianpeng, is his brain empty?"

"How could he possibly escape at a time like this?!"

"Kaiyuan is blocking the way outside. How can he possibly escape death if he goes out?!"

However, no matter how furious Tianxuan Daojun was, Tianpeng Dasheng fled without looking back, clearly not intending to die with Qiantian Daojun and the others.

Just as the Great Sage Tianpeng spread his wings and traversed countless years to fly away from the Nine Provinces, he saw a great seal descend from the sky, sealing off space and suppressing time.

"The Heaven-Reaching Primordial Seal?!"

The Great Sage Tianpeng stared in horror at the magnificent seal, but there was no way to avoid it.

As the seal was stamped on the forehead of the Great Sage Tianpeng, the Great Sage Tianpeng, who had just flown away from the Nine Provinces Realm, was knocked over and shattered by the seal, falling back into the Nine Provinces Realm after countless moments of time and space.

Before the Great Sage Tianpeng could catch his breath, a gaze was cast upon him, none other than that of the Golden Mother Yuanjun.

Seeing that the Myriad Laws Profound Heaven Formation could not hold on, and seeing that the Great Sage Tianpeng was injured, the Golden Mother Yuanjun immediately turned her spear around, pointed the Nine Lights Yuanzun Sword in her hand, and the power of life and death transformed into brilliant starlight that swept over.

"Tianpeng, since you showed yourself first, then I'll take your life soul fruit first!"

Gazing at the vast and surging river of life and death, the Great Sage Tianpeng felt his soul tremble. Already entangled by the calamity energy, he was completely unaware that the profound calamity energy of the Xuanmen Calamity had transformed into countless chains that pierced through him. With a cry of alarm, he hurriedly activated the Golden Flame Illuminating Heaven Mirror, attempting to use the vast golden flames to block the starlight of life and death.

Just then, a cry resounded throughout the heavens and earth. The Gengjin Yuehuo Spear actually tore through the Wanfa Xuantian Formation and crashed into the Tianpeng Great Sage with boundless golden fire power, piercing through his flesh body that was comparable to the membrane of heaven and earth.

The Great Sage Tianpeng stared in disbelief at the Gengjin Yuehuo Spear that had pierced through his flesh. He was severely injured by his own pure Yang treasure. The Great Sage Tianpeng never expected that such a thing would happen to him!

However, the Golden Mother Yuanjun was relentless in her pursuit of power. She once again channeled the power of life and death into the Nine Lights Yuanzun Sword in her hand, while simultaneously activating the Yaochi Golden Light Bottle and the Yaochi Bone-Illuminating Mirror, intending to kill the Great Sage Tianpeng on the spot.

In his shock, the Great Sage Tianpeng heard a sharp cry.

"Fellow Daoist Jinmu!"

"Please spare Tianpeng's life!" (End of Chapter)
