Primordial: From a grain of soil to the ancestor of all paths

Chapter 177 Hongjun: The Way of Heaven is Not Worthy of Conspiracy

chaos.

Zixiao Palace.

Hongjun sat cross-legged on auspicious nine-colored clouds, with a crystal-clear jade disc of creation above his head, from which hung billions of primordial energies, and strands of the origin of the Heavenly Dao.

His physical form gradually disappeared, and his purple figure grew dimmer, as if he had entered a different dimension of time and space.

"Shh-"

suddenly--

Hongjun's body erupted with boundless purple, ethereal divine light.

He seemed to have descended from the distant future back into the 'present'!
"Um?--"

Hongjun slowly opened his eyes.

Those cold, ancient, divine eyes once again revealed a hint of surprise.

"I really didn't expect this—"

"The Heavenly Dao's targeting of Hongyun was detected in advance; surely this couldn't have escaped the clutches of Tai Chu?"

Originally, it was in accordance with the grand plan of the primordial world established by Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao.

Except for a handful of people, all the other three thousand Zixiao guests will follow the immortal path of "severing the three corpses" to prove their Dao.

This would not only help him perfect his 'immortal path', but also help the Heavenly Dao to complete the three thousand Heavenly Dao rules more quickly. However, due to the emergence of the primordial variable, his own arrangements with the Heavenly Dao became a mess.

First, the 'seat dispute' was disrupted because Kunpeng used his supernatural powers to reflect Taichu's killing of Yuanshi, which forced him to give another purple futon to Zhunti, thus resolving the 'killing intent' against Kunpeng and Hongyun!

The second time, under the guise of lecturing on the "Path to Quasi-Sainthood," he took the opportunity to promote his own method of attaining enlightenment, "Slaying the Three Corpses."

However, many top-tier innate saints were influenced by the Primordial Beginning. Taiyi, Hongyun, Kunpeng, and others insisted on their own inherited cultivation methods and pursued the 'Law Proving Dao' with stronger combat power.

This not only caused him to lose much of his educational efforts, but also delayed the completion of the three thousand Heavenly Dao rules by the Heavenly Dao.

When the third sermon ended, this 'Primordial Purple Qi' should have become Hongyun's 'death warrant', but because of the influence of the Primordial Beginning, Hongyun noticed it in advance.

If the Heavenly Dao were to use the 'Pangu's Heart Essence Blood' within the Red Cloud Origin to eliminate Pangu's influence on the prehistoric world, its effectiveness would be greatly diminished!
"Om-"

Not long after——

The will of Heaven erupts directly through the 'Primordial Purple Qi'.

Feel His anger.

A hint of mockery flashed in Hongjun's ancient eyes!
If the Great Dao's fortune had backfired and Tai Chu had been killed directly, how could there be so many variables in the current prehistoric world?

'Heaven's ways are not worth scheming against!'

Even if He is the supreme ruler of the primordial world, He ultimately only developed some self-awareness and cannot compare to a true primordial deity!

'Otherwise, He wouldn't have needed me to sacrifice myself to save Him!'

Thinking of this——

Hongjun actually felt relieved.

If the Heavenly Dao possesses both supreme sovereign power and the mind and planning of a top-tier innate deity, then there is virtually no hope for me to escape the status of a pawn or puppet!
therefore--

The emergence of this variable, the Primordial Beginning, may harm his own interests, but it is now his greatest hope to break free from the control of the Heavenly Dao!
What is Qinglian doing now, the other variable? —

Turning his gaze away, Hongjun looked up at the southeastern part of the prehistoric world.

Based on his own karma with Qinglian, he immediately saw Qinglian traveling.

She was in a secluded mountain stream when a primordial array automatically appeared, as if an opportunity had been delivered to her door.

"As expected of the only mature lotus seed born from the Primordial Lotus, even though she only took form from a wisp of the Primordial Lotus's innate Great Dao, she attained the Great Luo Dao in just a few dozen Yuanhui!" "Moreover, the Primordial Lotus's fortune she inherits has already begun to surpass that of Taiqing, the head of the Three Pure Ones of Pangu's lineage. If she were given more time to grow..."

'Given the destiny that Qinglian possesses, coupled with her sibling relationship with Pangu, if she were to attempt to attain the Great Luo Primordial Dao, even if the Heavenly Dao completely dominates the primordial world, it would be difficult to stop her!'

Seeing a top-grade innate spiritual treasure offered to Qinglian, and feeling her immense and astonishing fortune, Hongjun couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

East China Sea.

The Immortal Palace Hall.

After returning from West Kunlun, the Eastern King immediately summoned the Spirit Wood Daoist and the Heavenly Mystery Daoist.

"My two beloved ministers—"

"Now that the teacher has finished his three sermons, my Celestial Court has failed to obtain a single strand of Primordial Purple Qi. Furthermore, Nuwa has already joined the Demon Clan. What should my Celestial Court do next?"

Lingmu Daoist and Tianxuan Daoist exchanged a glance, their expressions both somewhat solemn.

Judging from the bestowal of treasures after the Dao Ancestor Hongjun finished his sermon, his own Celestial Court had been completely neglected.

If we don't try harder—

The Celestial Court is very likely to become a stepping stone for the demon race!
"Emperor——"

"Although our teacher accepted Nuwa of the demon race as his true disciple, it does not mean that he supports the demon race. Moreover, our Celestial Court has ruled the prehistoric world for millions of years and is the rightful and legitimate ruler of heaven and earth!"

"Next, all we need to do is quickly set up the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation,' and then use the power of the formation to kill Di Jun and Tai Yi, so that we can truly unify the prehistoric world and rule the world!"

As quasi-saints and powerful beings, Lingmu Daoren and Tianxuan Daoren knew that the Celestial Court's mandate still existed.

Furthermore, with the trump card of the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation', they are fully qualified to win the 'Great Dao Contest' against the demon race!
Both of them broke through to the Quasi-Saint realm due to the Celestial Court's fortune, and as high-ranking Celestial Emperors, their fates were already completely bound to the Celestial Court. Of course, they would do their utmost to assist the Emperor, Dongwanggong.

"good!--"

"Your two ministers are right!"

The Eastern King Duke sat high on the imperial jade chair, his gaze domineering and arrogant, his aura encompassing the universe.

He knew, of course, his only trump card to turn the tide, and the reason he summoned the two Immortal Emperors, Tianxuan and Lingmu, was to make them help him at all costs!
"Two fellow Taoists—"

"For the future of the Celestial Court, and to change our fate, I, the Emperor, am now prepared to launch a full-scale campaign against the myriad races of the prehistoric world and forcibly subdue the Great Luo powerhouses among them!"

"Therefore, I humbly request your full assistance, fellow Daoists!"

The Eastern King Duke walked up to the two men and immediately adopted a conciliatory attitude, showing respect and deference to the virtuous.

"The day the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Array' is successfully set up will be the day when my Celestial Court establishes its dominion over the primordial world and rules over heaven and earth!"

"At that time, you two fellow Daoists will become the greatest contributors to my Celestial Court. I am also willing to share the Celestial Court's fortune with you two fellow Daoists, and together we will rule the primordial world and command the world!"

"I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"

"I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"

Tianxuan and Lingmu bowed respectfully to the Eastern King.

"good!--"

"With the assistance of these two fellow Daoists, what worries does our Celestial Court have about failing in its great undertaking?"

Dongwanggong stepped forward, stretched out his hands and lifted the two of them up, his face full of emotion and anticipation.

Although he was arrogant and narrow-minded, he knew that at this point, only by sharing power and making empty promises could he get everyone to work together to change their fate.
