Honghuang: I persuaded Zulong to retire, and I was expelled from the dragon clan

Upon hearing Tongtian's plan, Ao Yin nodded and said, "Alright, fellow Daoist, just go ahead and do it. I'll back you up!"

The world has been peaceful for too long; it's time for some real excitement.

This time, perhaps it's the last hurrah of the old era...

Tongtian didn't understand what Ao Yin meant by "the old era," but he didn't ask or think about it. He was only thinking about the great reckoning after his return!

Afterwards, Tongtian stabilized his cultivation here.

In reality, there's not much to stabilize one's cultivation level after attaining enlightenment, since it's also difficult to fall back down!
It is said to be to consolidate one's cultivation, but in reality it is to carefully experience the profound mystery of this realm!
……

Wild world.

Mount Sumeru.

After returning from Jin'ao Island, Kong Xuan went straight to this place.

His purpose in coming here was naturally to seek an audience with the sage.

Zhunti received him.

Upon seeing Zhunti, Kong Xuan immediately pleaded, "I implore the Sage to intervene and rescue my younger brother, Jinpeng!"

Upon hearing this, Zhunti smiled and nodded, saying, "The Golden Roc has a connection with the West, and I will personally make a trip to Golden Turtle Island!"

Upon hearing Zhunti's words, Kong Xuan bowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After that, Kong Xuan left.

He needs to go back to heal his wounds.

With the sage personally taking action, he has nothing to worry about!

Below the level of a sage, even the strongest quasi-sage is nothing but an ant!
That pseudo-Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation could harm him, but it could be broken in the blink of an eye for a sage! He had fought against a sage before and had experienced that feeling of powerlessness!

He thought to himself: Jinpeng, you'll be out soon. In the Jie Sect, you were of low status and not valued. Entering the Western Paradise is a stroke of good fortune for you. As your elder brother, this is all I can do to help you...

He then stopped thinking about it and, in a flash, returned to the Great Thunderclap Temple to begin his seclusion.

……

On Mount Sumeru.

After Kong Xuan left, Jieyin's voice reached Zhunti's ears: "Junior brother, are you really going to Jin'ao Island?"

Upon hearing this, Zhunti's expression turned solemn, and he replied, "Of course! Senior brother, as you know, our Western Sect suffered a crushing defeat in the Investiture of the Gods, and I have never been reconciled to it!"

Now is our chance!
We have formed an alliance with Yuanshi and Haotian again. If we really fight Tongtian, Taishang probably won't stand idly by. He has always wanted to find an opportunity to suppress Tongtian, so let's give him that opportunity!
"When the time comes, with the combined power of several of our saints, even someone as powerful as Tongtian will be suppressed by us!"

Upon hearing Zhunti's words, Jieyin remained silent for two breaths before asking, "What about the one on Penglai Island?"
That person has always been on good terms with Tongtian. If he were to make a move, even with several of us Saints, we probably wouldn't be a match for him!

Upon hearing this, Zhunti said with great confidence, "If that person dares to make a move, how could the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao remain indifferent?"
The universe needs balance; the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao will not allow that person to act arbitrarily!

Upon hearing Zhunti's reply, Jieyin sighed and said, "In that case, then go and do it."

Silence immediately returned to Mount Sumeru.

Zhunti arrived at Jin'ao Island on a whim.

His terrifying saintly aura instantly covered the entire Golden Turtle Island!
Under this terrifying pressure, everyone from quasi-saints to ordinary beings trembled in fear!

Zhunti's icy voice echoed above Jin'ao Island: "You brat from the Jie Sect, how dare you imprison a disciple of my Western Sect! What are you trying to do?! Do you think my Western Sect is easy to bully?!" (End of Chapter)
