Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 390 Zhou Tian Star Umbrella

Kong Xuan's method was extremely simple and brutal: kill anyone who dared to defy him. He wouldn't waste a single word on them.

Therefore, Grand Master Xuandu couldn't help but smile and say, "Grandmaster was afraid that Junior Brother Kong Xuan would go on a killing spree, so he sent me here in time."

"Our Grandmaster is currently waiting for you all at Sishui Pass. Please come with me to pay our respects to our Grandmaster."

The group followed Grand Master Xuandu on a cloud to Sishui Pass, where they found Wuzhiqi already waiting there, gesturing for them to enter.

The group straightened their clothes and filed in. They saw Chen Xuan sitting upright on a prayer mat, looking at them with a smile.

Everyone hurriedly bowed to Chen Xuan and said, "Greetings, Grandmaster (Ancestor)."

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, his gaze falling on Nezha. "Little Nezha, why haven't you handed the Plague Umbrella over to the Ancestor yet?"

Nezha skipped forward and presented the Plague Umbrella to Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan only needed one glance to know what the Plague Umbrella was. He immediately reached out and pointed at the Plague Umbrella.

Suddenly, the twelve umbrellas trembled simultaneously, emitting a clear and melodious sound. The star map on the umbrella surface projected rays of starlight, enveloping Nezha within them.

Chen Xuan looked pleased and said to Nezha with a smile, "It seems that this Zhou Tian Star Umbrella is indeed destined for you."

Master Taiyi exclaimed in surprise, "Grandmaster, could this be the innate treasure, the Zhou Tian Star Umbrella? How did it turn into the Plague Umbrella?"

Chen Xuan waved for everyone to sit down before speaking, "Indeed, this is the Zhou Tian Star Umbrella, but it is only a part of it."

"There are originally 365 Zhou Tian Star Umbrellas, and only when they are put together can they be called a supreme innate treasure."

"Back then, Donghuang Taiyi also used these 365 Zhou Tian Star Umbrellas, along with the Zhou Tian Star Array diagram, to set up the Zhou Tian Star Array even without the Chaos Bell."

As he spoke, Chen Xuan lightly tapped his finger, and the star map on the umbrella expanded, revealing a vast galaxy. A tremendous aura instantly soared into the sky.

"After the war between the Lich King and the Demon King, the Zhou Tian Star Umbrellas were scattered throughout the primordial world. Lü Yue accidentally obtained these twelve umbrellas, but he only used them as ordinary magic weapons, which was a real waste of their precious resources."

Master Yu Ding pondered for a moment: "Grandmaster, what is the wondrous use of this treasure?"

Chen Xuan replied, "A single Star Umbrella can borrow the power of the corresponding star. When all twelve are used together, they can form a Small Heavenly Circuit and draw upon the power of the stars to fight the enemy."

"If we can collect all 365 of them, we can recreate the Zhou Tian Star Array and suppress a region of heaven and earth."

Zhao Gongming gasped: "No wonder the Western Sect and the Jie Sect are fighting so fiercely."

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "This treasure requires a person with a special destiny to unleash its full power. For example, Donghuang Taiyi back then, and Nezha and Ao Bing now."

Taiyi Zhenren looked shocked and said in disbelief, "Does Grandmaster mean that Nezha and Ao Bing have half of Donghuang Taiyi's lineage?"

Chen Xuan smiled and nodded, "Nezha's true form is the Fire Spirit Pearl, and Ao Bing's true form is the Water Spirit Pearl. Add the Earth Spirit Pearl, Wood Spirit Pearl, and Metal Spirit Pearl, and you have the Five Elements Spirit Pearls."

"Others only know that the Innate Five Elements Spirit Pearl is an innate object. But they don't know that the source of this Innate Five Elements Spirit Pearl is the tassel of the Zhou Tian Star Umbrella."

"It can also be said that Nezha and Ao Bing are of the same lineage as this Zhou Tian Xing Chen Umbrella. Their compatibility is even greater than that of Donghuang Taiyi."

Nezha's eyes lit up: "Ancestor, can I use them to fight?"

Chen Xuan chuckled: "Of course you can. But if you actually do that, you'll be even more foolish than Lü Yue." "Because the Zhou Tian Star Umbrella is a great opportunity for you and Ao Bing. If you can find all 365 Star Umbrellas and the other three spirit pearls, you can rebuild your foundation."

"Back then, you and Ao Bing were already innate treasures in human form, and your future achievements would surely surpass those of your master, Taiyi. Now, would you still be willing to use them in a fight?"

Just as Nezha was about to agree, the world suddenly changed color. Then, the cawing of crows rang out over Sishui Pass.

Everyone couldn't help but look up at the sky and were surprised to find that two blazing suns had appeared.

Just as everyone was puzzled, Chen Xuan smiled and said, "Hongjun has indeed released them."

Indeed, the person who came was none other than Donghuang Taiyi, one of the Six Sages of Heaven.

Originally, Donghuang Taiyi had been in seclusion in the Northern Sea, and even the demon race was unaware that the two former demon emperors had returned.

The reason Donghuang Taiyi came to Sishui Pass was because Chen Xuan tore off the disguise of the Zhou Tian Star Umbrella, making it no longer the Plague Umbrella.

This caused the aura of the Zhou Tian Star Umbrella to leak out instantly, even alarming Donghuang Taiyi in the Northern Sea.

Donghuang Taiyi tore through the void and transformed into his true form, arriving above Sishui Pass. His purpose was to reclaim the Zhou Tian Star Umbrella.

Originally, he did not want to show his true identity, but Chen Xuan revealed his identity in one sentence, and Donghuang Taiyi no longer appeared in his true form.

At that moment, it manifested a human form, which was a young man wearing a royal crown.

The second-generation disciples of the Daoist sect present had all experienced the Lich War, so they naturally recognized who this young man wearing a royal crown was.

Upon learning that the visitor was Donghuang Taiyi, a fighting spirit flashed in Kong Xuan's eyes. He immediately spoke to Chen Xuan.

"Grandmaster, Kong Xuan wishes to meet Donghuang Taiyi and see just how great the gap is between himself and a sage."

Just as Chen Xuan was about to agree, he suddenly noticed that the twelve Zhou Tian Xing Chen Umbrellas flew up on their own, circling around Nezha and Ao Bing, releasing bursts of star power.

Finally, it transformed into twelve streams of light, which entered the bodies of Nezha and Ao Bing respectively.

This scene was naturally witnessed by Donghuang Taiyi in mid-air. His eyes widened in anger, and he coldly snorted.

"You audacious brats, how dare you destroy my demon race's most precious treasure! If I, the Emperor, do not refine you back into the Zhou Tian Star Umbrella today, you will never know what it means to be a saint."

At this moment, Chen Xuan was not appearing in his original form at Sishui Pass. Therefore, Donghuang Taiyi naturally did not recognize Chen Xuan as being present.

Otherwise, even if he, Donghuang Taiyi, had the greatest audacity, he wouldn't dare to speak so arrogantly in front of Chen Xuan.

They've probably already fled with their tails between their legs, not daring to linger over Sishui Pass for even a moment.

Chen Xuan did not intend to make a move, but instead spoke directly to Kong Xuan, saying, "Although you are infinitely close to becoming a Primordial Golden Immortal, you have ultimately failed to take that final step."

"However, fighting a sage will also benefit you. But remember one thing: if the situation is unavoidable, do not force it."

Kong Xuan nodded to Chen Xuan, then took a step forward and appeared in mid-air. He then spoke to Donghuang Taiyi.

"Unexpectedly, the Eastern Emperor did not perish in the great calamity of the Lich King. Today, let me, Kong Xuan, experience firsthand the methods of the Eastern Emperor of the demon race."
