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

Chapter 401 Saints with Different Moods

Chen Xuan, standing in Sishui Pass, looked up towards Xiqi. He couldn't help but sigh and said, "I didn't expect that a sage would be going to meet his end so soon."

"It seems that the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation of the Three Immortals, whether now or in the original primordial trajectory, has reached a point where only a sage can break it."

In the original primordial timeline, Yunxiao used the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation to wipe out the Twelve Golden Immortals. In the end, it was only through the intervention of Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi that the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation was broken, allowing the Three Immortal Maidens of Sanxiao to be listed on the Investiture of the Gods.

The key reason for this outcome was not that Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun intervened, but rather that Tongtian, as their master, turned a blind eye.

If Tongtian had intervened to protect the Three Immortal Maidens of Sanxiao, it might have been the Chan Sect that severed its lineage.

After all, the Twelve Golden Immortals had all become mortals, and any ordinary mortal general could easily send them to the Investiture of the Gods list.

In this primordial world, Chen Xuan naturally couldn't allow such a thing to happen. He immediately used a secret technique to notify the Three Pure Ones, instructing them to come to Sishui Pass at once.

The Three Pure Ones, who were comprehending the Great Dao on Qinglian Island, suddenly received an order from their master. Their faces instantly lit up with excitement, especially Tongtian, who almost jumped up.

"It's finally our turn, brothers. This time, we must send all six Heavenly Saints back to the Heavenly Dao to be reborn."

Looking at Tongtian, who was like a child, Laozi couldn't help but glare at him and said, "Keep a low profile. We can't make any noise on our way to Sishui Pass."

"Moreover, we can only make a move after the Heavenly Dao Saint appears. Otherwise, even if we go to Sishui Pass, we will only be paying respects to our master."

Upon hearing this, Tongtian couldn't help but show a hint of sadness on his face. But he quickly regained his excited expression.

Tongtian didn't believe that Chen Xuan's order to go to Sishui Pass was merely for contingency purposes. He suspected that the Heavenly Dao Saint was about to make his move.

Therefore, what Lao Tzu described is absolutely impossible. This time, with his Tongtian connection, he definitely has a chance to show his skills.

Immediately, Tongtian waved his hand, and ripples appeared in the void before him. A spatial passage also appeared.

Tongtian took a single step forward, becoming the first to enter the spatial passage. He left Qinglian Island and headed towards Sishui Pass.

Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun shook their heads helplessly, then followed closely behind, heading towards Sishui Pass.

Just then, Qing Teng spoke up to the Queen Mother of the West, saying, "Your Majesty, you say that Senior Brother Sanqing's cultivation is so high, yet he still acts like a child, bickering and playing around every day."

With a smile, the Queen Mother of the West said, "This is the pure brotherly affection between them."

The Queen Mother of the West's words hit the nail on the head. It is precisely because of the pure brotherhood among the Three Pure Ones that they can speak and act so without restraint.

If it were the original relationship between the Three Pure Ones in the primordial era, a single glance would probably have caused Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian to fight, and there would be no such teasing and nonsense.

Qing Teng nodded as if he understood, "Although I don't understand what pure brotherly love is, there is one thing I do know, and that is that they are doing quite well."

The Queen Mother of the West smiled and said, "Isn't our entire Qinglian Island living in this kind of atmosphere?"

The two chatted casually, but their hands never stopped moving. They led the female immortals of West Kunlun to harvest countless rare and precious treasures.

Then he ordered his men to send all these rare and precious materials, spiritual fruits and medicines directly to Laozi, so that he could refine pills upon his return. After all, the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods had begun, and the consumption of pills was much higher than usual. After all, for Daoist disciples on the front lines, consuming Nine-Turn Golden Pills was no different than eating candy.

At the same time, Zhen Yuanzi, in the Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain, couldn't help but open his eyes and sighed.

"Although all my disciples are Golden Immortals of Fortune and Virtue, they are inevitably somewhat lacking compared to Daoist disciples in terms of combat skills and formations."

"Now, facing the Three Immortals' Nine Turns Yellow River Formation, if I don't personally take action, I'm afraid they won't be able to survive this calamity."

As he spoke, Zhen Yuanzi vanished from his spot. When he reappeared, he was already at Biyou Palace on Jin'ao Island.

Upon seeing Zhen Yuanzi's sudden visit, Old Ancestor Hongyun hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Old friend, what brings you here today? Could it be that the ginseng fruit is ripe and you've brought it to me?"

Looking at the old ancestor Hongyun, who was only interested in satisfying his cravings, Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help but sigh. Then he glared at the old ancestor Hongyun and said...

"Don't you know that five of your ten Heavenly Lord disciples have already died at the hands of Daoist disciples?"

Hongyun Patriarch nodded, "This humble Taoist naturally knows. However, this is their fate. Being listed on the Investiture of the Gods is actually a good ending for them."

"After all, given their foundation, even if they spent their entire lives, they would never be able to sever their corpses and become quasi-saints. Even breaking through to the Great Luo realm would be like looking at flowers in a mirror."

"Compared to exhausting one's lifespan and being reincarnated in the Six Paths of Reincarnation, it's better for a true spirit to be listed on the Investiture of the Gods and receive a title. At least that guarantees immortality, isn't it?"

Zhen Yuanzi was speechless after what Hongyun Patriarch said, since what he said made perfect sense.

Moreover, securing a good future for one's disciples is also something a master should do.

However, Zhen Yuanzi was different at this time, because those disciples of the Chan Sect in Xiqi City were all his lifeblood.

Left with no other choice, he could only say, "You only think about the future of your own disciples, don't you ever think about the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods?"

"If the Investiture of the Gods cannot be successfully completed, have you thought about how you will explain it to your master? Do you intend to go directly to Zixiao Palace to apologize to your master like the two monks from the West?"

"Or perhaps they would simply be punished by their master, like the two demon emperors, and forced to face the wall for tens of thousands of days in the Heavenly Dao?"

After hearing this, Ancestor Hongyun sighed, "Old friend, there's no need to say more. I certainly cannot be perfunctory in carrying out the tasks entrusted to me by my master."

"However, for you, my old friend, to be so anxious, even going so far as to come to see me in person, it must be that the disciples of the Chan and Jie sects have encountered trouble in Xiqi, right?"

Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said, "The Three Immortals of Sanxiao, second-generation disciples of the Daoist sect, have set up the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation in Xiqi. They have already captured all the Western Sect disciples, including Maitreya Daoist, alive."

"I just lit the incense with the lamp, which is why I came to see my old friend as soon as possible. I wanted to ask if you would like to go to Xiqi with me."

Hongyun Patriarch laughed freely, "No matter how mysterious the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is, with my old friend personally breaking it, it can be broken in the blink of an eye."

The meaning of Old Ancestor Hongyun was very simple: this is such a small matter, there is no need for the two of us brothers to go together.
