Primordial Era: Exceptional Comprehension, Destroying Buzhou Mountain at the Start

Chapter 187 Emperor Qing seals the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun eternally seals the Heavenly Dao, and the Ancestral Dragon is unsealed.

After a long while, the Heavenly Dao finally spoke: "Since things have come to this, let us accept our fate and leave our lives to Di Qing to decide. We can either flee or hide, concealing ourselves for endless years, cultivating in secret, and perhaps still have a chance to survive. But this hiding can only be in the starry sky, only in the Chaos Layer. We absolutely cannot go to the earth, otherwise Di Qing, who has transformed into the Earth Dao, will find us at any time."

Upon hearing this, Hongjun and the others pondered the matter and realized that this seemed to be the only solution. They had no other choice, nor could they change anything.

"Sigh..." Hongjun sighed deeply, looking at the five disciples before him. With a flick of his sleeve, endless resources flew out: "Go, go hide. You dispersed your Heavenly Dao origins before, and have no further connection with the Heavenly Dao. As long as you hide well from now on, it will be difficult for Di Qing to find you, so you only need to focus on your cultivation."

"Master, you..." Taiqing hesitated, looking at his master, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"I am too deeply bound to the Heavenly Dao, and it is impossible to break free. The Heavenly Dao itself is a luminous point, and Di Qing, who has transformed into the Earthly Dao, can find the Heavenly Dao at any time. Therefore, neither I nor the Heavenly Dao can escape it."

"The only thing to be thankful for is that, although Di Qing, who has transformed into the Earthly Dao, has become part of the Primordial Order, he is also bound by it. Therefore, as long as the Heavenly Dao does not violate the Primordial Order or disrupt it, Di Qing cannot easily kill the Heavenly Dao or me."

"That's why we're able to cling to life, while you are our last hope. Hurry up and leave, if Di Qing arrives, I..."

"Hurry up and leave, Di Qing is already here."

Hongjun wanted to say more, but after sensing Diqing's aura, he immediately ordered the Three Pure Ones to leave.

After all, this is the limit for him and the Heavenly Dao; they can no longer improve or defeat Di Qing. But the Three Pure Ones are different; after leaving the Heavenly Dao, they still have the opportunity to continue cultivating and becoming stronger.

Although this rate of improvement is unlikely to catch up with Di Qing's, it is still a glimmer of hope.

Therefore, Hongjun gave them all his resources and magical techniques, and ordered them to leave.

When Di Qing arrived, after transforming into the Earthly Path, he separated another avatar, flew to the vast sky, and came to this Chaos Layer.

Previously, the Heavenly Dao concealed itself, hiding within the chaotic layer, making it difficult for Emperor Qing to find it.

But now, the Heavenly Dao is something that Di Qing can find at any time.

As Di Qing stepped into Zixiao Palace, he sensed the aura of the Heavenly Dao here and immediately shattered the palace gates.

With a loud crash, the gates of Zixiao Palace shattered, and Di Qing stepped inside. He looked at the aged and lifeless Hongjun, who seemed to be waiting for death, and the Heavenly Dao above his head.

"Hongjun, Heavenly Dao, it's been a long time." Di Qing spoke calmly, yet with a touch of melancholy, as if he were speaking to an old friend he hadn't seen in years.

Looking especially at Hongjun's aged and lifeless body, and the weakened Heavenly Dao, a sense of melancholy arose within him. To be honest, ever since he learned that the Heavenly Dao was the enemy, and that Hongjun had sided with it, Di Qing had regarded them as formidable foe.

He even felt mentally exhausted because of these two enemies. After all, relying on Di Qing's memories from his later years, he was well aware of their power. But after several battles, he realized that the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun were nothing special.

Even after several battles, Di Qing still couldn't kill the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun, leaving him quite helpless. After all, these two special beings were truly difficult to eliminate.

Even now, Di Qing would find it difficult to kill both of them. However, after being weakened by Di Qing, they would no longer have the power to resist.

"Alas..." Hongjun sighed, gazing at Di Qing's imposing figure and sensing his boundless power, and said with a self-deprecating laugh, "Fellow Daoist Di Qing, it has been a long time since we last met. But now, our reunion may be our final farewell. Fellow Daoist Di Qing, what are your plans for dealing with us?"

"My concept of an enemy is that a dead enemy is the best enemy. Unfortunately, you two are too special. Born with the will of the primordial world, and intertwined with the order of the primordial world. Because of the constraints of the order of the primordial world, I am unable to kill you."

"But I cannot kill you, though I can imprison you, weaken you, and ultimately cause you to perish. So now, will you try to resist?"

Di Qing seemed to be asking a question, or perhaps anticipating something. He wanted to see if either of them could stand up and dare to rebel against him.

Unfortunately, to Di Qing's disappointment, Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao now seemed to have lost their will to be strong and their power to resist. They simply looked at Di Qing calmly and said, "Do we still have the right to talk about resistance now? Fellow Daoist Di Qing, do whatever you want."

"Boring. You possess such cultivation, yet lack the indomitable will of the strong." Looking at Hongjun and Tiandao, who had lost all power to resist and no longer wanted to struggle, Di Qing felt utterly bored and had no desire to fight them anymore. He immediately flicked his sleeve: "From now on, you will obediently stay in this Zixiao Palace."

Having said this, he used the Great Dao to evolve and seal, and the will of the earth to seal off everything here.

Ultimately, Zixiao Palace was sealed away, completely dissolving into the chaos. It could no longer draw any spiritual energy or resources from the chaos, nor could it ever leave Zixiao Palace again. Now, their only function is to instinctively maintain the primordial order.

After doing all this, Di Qing snorted coldly and disappeared into the chaos.

It's truly laughable that this enemy, whom I was wary of and even found troublesome, ended up like this.

Although Di Qing noticed the departure of the Three Pure Ones, he no longer respected them. Just as an adult wouldn't bully a child, he decided to leave these guys to his subordinates to deal with.

He turned and left, returning once more to the land of Buzhou.

After returning to Buzhou, Dijiang and the others, who had attained enlightenment a second time, had already arrived.

Jieyin and Zhunti also arrived. Originally, they were also supposed to sacrifice their old bodies to become part of the Great Dao of the Primordial World, thereby enabling their new selves to attain enlightenment a second time. Unfortunately, Jieyin and Zhunti's new selves were not sufficiently accumulated. After being washed away by the power of the earth for countless years, they were still lacking.

Therefore, there was no sacrifice, but rather waiting until enough was accumulated before sacrificing the old body, and then attaining enlightenment a second time with the new body.

Besides Jieyin and Zhunti, five more Hunyuan experts arrived. These five Hunyuan experts were none other than Zulong and Phoenix Ancestor.

The First Dragon and his companions sacrificed themselves to repair the primordial land. Only when the land is repaired can they be freed.

Now that the earth has been completely repaired by Emperor Qing, Zu Long and the others have naturally been freed. Moreover, thanks to the earth's blessing and the feedback from heaven and earth, their cultivation has also reached the Hunyuan realm.

Looking at the entire temple filled with beings at the Primordial Chaos Realm, Zu Long was filled with emotion: "Back then, we spent countless efforts and endured countless tribulations in our pursuit of the Primordial Chaos Realm and our path to enlightenment. But unexpectedly, only a few years have passed, and the Primordial Chaos Realm has become so widespread."

"Haha... Times have changed so fast. It's normal for you guys to be surprised. To be honest, even we found it hard to believe that the Witch Clan would be where it is today." Dijiang laughed along, and they chatted amiably.
