Primordial Era: I am the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones, the gatekeeper of the Great Dao.

Chapter 31 Hongyun ambushes Zhen Yuanzi; the Primordial Purple Qi is fake!

"A chaotic and primordial era is approaching; peace will be hard to enjoy!"

Cang Xuan lay leisurely on the rattan chair, his eyes flashing with the laws of time, and looked up at the sky.

At this moment, the lines of cause and effect and the lines of fate seem to become even more elusive.

On the long river of life, the aura of calamity grows stronger day by day.

An ominous rule silently attached itself to some living beings.

If one is entangled by the aura of a great calamity, one is very likely to face a life-or-death crisis.

"The five-hundred-year period is about to end!"

"I wonder how Jade Cauldron Immortal's progress is?"

Just then, the Jade Slip River in the heavens suddenly shone brightly.

Then, countless Dao runes burst forth, as if summoned by some force, and converged towards Jade Cauldron Immortal.

A moment later, Yu Ding moved and landed in front of Cang Xuan.

"May I ask, brother, have I passed the test?"

With a smile on his face, Yu Ding bowed to Cang Xuan.

Over the years, he has devoted himself to studying the techniques and supernatural powers contained in the Jade Slip River, never daring to slack off in the slightest.

The profound insights into the Great Dao are as vast as the ocean and unfathomable.

"Junior Brother Yu Ding, you have indeed lived up to my high expectations."

"I am the eldest disciple personally instructed by the Three Pure Ones, and the head of the second generation of the Xuanmen sect. Why don't you quickly pay your respects to your senior brother?"

Cang Xuan remained calm and composed, his right hand behind his back.

Only those who can join the Xuanmen (mysterious sect) are qualified to know his true identity.

Now that Yu Ding has passed the test, he can naturally join the Xuanmen (mysterious sect).

Upon hearing this, Yu Ding was taken aback.

He immediately realized what was happening and bowed to Cang Xuan.

"Yu Ding greets Senior Brother!"

"Thank you for your guidance, senior brother, which has enabled me to achieve what I have today."

Over the past five hundred years, Yu Ding's cultivation level has not only been raised by a small realm.

It also broadened his horizons and gave him a deeper understanding of the Great Dao.

In the future, Yu Ding will undoubtedly be even more adept at teaching his disciples.

"Get up!"

"Now that you have entered my esoteric school, you should diligently cultivate yourself."

"Although your cultivation level is not outstanding, your understanding of Taoist techniques and supernatural powers is extremely profound."

"In this respect, Xuan Du and Guang Chengzi cannot compare to you."

"I believe that your disciples will one day make a name for themselves under your guidance and carve out their own niche in the world!"

Cang Xuan helped Yu Ding up and spoke earnestly.

Then, he sent Yu Ding to the Taiqing Palace atop Kunlun Mountain to pay homage to the Three Pure Ones.

"The millennium period is now less than two hundred years away."

"At that time, I will be able to obtain the Taixu Divine Armor and the Eternal Divine Spring."

"For now, I should focus on comprehending the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique!"

With this in mind, Cang Xuan closed his eyes and focused his mind, continuing to comprehend the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique.

Longevity Hill, Wuzhuang Temple.

The demonic aura was as dark as ink, and a chilling atmosphere permeated the entire mountain range.

"Zhen Yuanzi, I advise you to immediately withdraw the Earth Book Formation and make Hongyun hand over the Primordial Purple Qi."

"Otherwise, you two will both be doomed!"

The Kunpeng's voice echoed between heaven and earth, extremely arrogant.

Not long ago, he personally led the Ten Demon Saints to launch a fierce attack on Wuzhuang Temple.

Despite repeated attacks, Wuzhuang Temple remained standing.

The Earth Book Formation was as solid as a rock, leaving the demon army helpless.

"wishful thinking!"

"Fellow Daoist Hongyun's Primordial Purple Qi was personally bestowed by Dao Ancestor Hongjun, and is destined by Heaven."

"You demons attacked us without provocation; are you defying the heavens?!"

Despite the threat posed by Kunpeng, Zhen Yuanzi remained completely unafraid.

He used the supreme innate spiritual treasure, the Earth Book, to closely connect with the earth veins of Longevity Mountain and set up a great array of Earth Books.

Kunpeng and his group alone are simply no match for this formation.

He would never betray his close friend for his own benefit, thus becoming an unfaithful and unjust person.

"You are truly stubborn and incorrigible!"

"Since you're so stubborn, don't blame us for being impolite."

Upon seeing this, Kunpeng was enraged.

Without saying another word, he joined forces with the ten demon saints, unleashing their respective magical treasures and launching a fierce attack.

In an instant, countless magical treasures and supernatural powers fell like meteors.

This triggered a series of booming sounds and stirred up ripples on the Earth Book Array.

Meanwhile, inside a palace.

Hongyun slowly opened her eyes, exuding a violent aura.

"Why have I been trying to comprehend the Primordial Purple Qi for tens of thousands of years, yet still have gained nothing?"

"The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and the Two Sages of the West all attained sainthood by relying on the Primordial Purple Qi."

"Since I am fortunate enough to obtain the Primordial Purple Qi, I should also have the potential to become a saint."

"Could it be that this Primordial Purple Qi is fake?"

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.

A strange unease crept into my heart.

He sat in this great hall for tens of thousands of years, yet still gained nothing.

Originally, Hongyun hoped that by comprehending the Primordial Purple Qi, he could find an opportunity to attain enlightenment.

Now it seems that all efforts have been in vain.

Only I know the bitterness and frustration in my heart.

Just then, he noticed an unusual fluctuation.

Has something unexpected happened?

Hongyun frowned, a sense of foreboding rising in her heart.

"Could it be Kunpeng? They actually dare to attack Wuzhuang Temple?!"

For a moment, Hongyun felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness.

His sacred site was Huoyun Cave, because he had a close relationship with Zhen Yuanzi.

After Hongjun Daozu finished his third sermon, he chose to stay at Wuzhuang Temple.

Unexpectedly, this decision brought Zhen Yuanzi such great trouble.

"Fellow Daoist Hongyun, you can focus on your cultivation and there is no need to worry."

Zhen Yuanzi's voice rang out in the main hall as he slowly walked in.

Although there was a hint of fatigue on his face, his eyes were unusually firm.

"As long as it's not Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi who attack together, my Earth Book Formation will not be broken."

Although Zhen Yuanzi pretended to be indifferent, Hongyun could still feel the pressure he was under.

"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, you've worked hard!"

Hongyun couldn't help but sigh.

"I have been in Wuzhuang Temple for tens of thousands of years, and now I want to go out and travel around."

"Perhaps in this way, I can find the opportunity to attain enlightenment and sainthood."

"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, please let me leave!"

He knew he couldn't drag Zhen Yuanzi down with him any further.

Therefore, Hongyun found an excuse to leave Wuzhuang Temple.

"Fellow Daoist Hongyun, if you leave Wuzhuang Temple now, your chances of survival are slim."

"You can stay here peacefully. If Kunpeng and the others want to seize the Primordial Purple Qi, they'll have to step over my dead body first!"

Zhen Yuanzi directly refused, leaving no room for argument.

Now that powerful figures from all sides are coveting the Primordial Purple Qi, how could he possibly agree to let Hongyun leave?

Seeing Zhen Yuanzi's firm attitude, Hongyun could only force a smile:

"It seems you've figured out all my little schemes."

"Since the Earth Book Formation is so impregnable, and I have made no progress, why don't we discuss the Dao and share a few drinks?"

After repeated persuasion from Hongyun, Zhen Yuanzi finally agreed.

The two sat facing each other, drinking and discussing philosophy, in a harmonious atmosphere.

Just as Zhen Yuanzi was relaxing.

Hongyun suddenly unleashed the Nine-Nine Red Cloud Soul-Scattering Gourd, striking Zhen Yuanzi's crown with lightning speed.

Zhen Yuanzi had no time to react; he coughed up blood, his primordial spirit was damaged, and he fell into a coma.

"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, I'm sorry."

A deep sense of guilt flashed in Hongyun's eyes.

"I can't just stand by and watch you get into danger because of me."

"Only by knocking you unconscious can I leave Wuzhuang Temple and draw away those covetous enemies."

He gently wiped the blood from Zhen Yuanzi's lips and settled him in the palace.

Then he used his magic to draw upon the celestial energy from all directions to heal Zhen Yuanzi, hoping he could recover as soon as possible.

After everything was arranged, Hongyun quietly left the Earth Book Formation and moved away from Wuzhuang Temple.
