I start by marrying Yunxiao, who's in a vegetative state; I'm invincible in the primor

Pangu began to teach Li Yu the power-killing formation technique.

What?

Pangu was not skilled in formations?

Tongtian Jiaozhu of the Jie Sect is hailed as the number one saint of array formations in the primordial world!

It was merely a transformation of Pangu's primordial spirit.

How could Pangu not be proficient in formations?

Pangu's Daoist voice was deep and powerful: "The killing formation of power is called the Chaos Returning to Origin Slaughtering Formation."

"Based on the primordial world I created, without relying on the power of Yin and Yang or the Five Elements, without taking advantage of the power of time, space, and cause and effect, I rely purely on force as the sole law!"

"This array cannot be awakened unless one proves the Dao through force!"

"Once the grand formation is activated, all supernatural powers, secret techniques, and spiritual treasures lose their luster; only power remains!"

Pangu preached the Dao, and golden lotuses sprang from the earth, purple energy surged, and myriad mysteries arose!

Ancient and profound, the ingenuity of this formation surpasses all other formations from the primordial era!

Its core principle is: One force can overcome all methods!

Only after listening to Pangu preach did Li Yu truly understand the essence of the supremacy of power and the power to overcome all laws!

Meanwhile.

Chaos Purple Cloud Palace.

With the help of the four demon gods, Heaven has once again suppressed Hongjun's counterattack.

The power of Heaven is slowly recovering.

The four demon gods, Yangmei, Shichen, Mingyuan, and Yinyuan, said in a deep voice, "The Taiji Diagram and Pangu Banner are transformed from the Heaven-Opening Axe, and their power should not be underestimated."

"We must not allow it to be reassembled from the Heaven-Opening Axe."

Hongjun, the Heavenly Dao, was injured by the Heaven-Opening Axe, so he naturally knew best the killing power of the Heaven-Opening Axe.

The power of the Heavenly Dao manifested around Hongjun, who summoned Taiqing, Yuqing, Jieyin, and Zhunti using a secret method.

With a solemn expression, Taiqing Laozi entered Zixiao Palace.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable's face turned ashen with displeasure.

The faces of Jieyin and Zhunti were filled with worry and suffering.

"teacher."

"The Dao Ancestor?"

Heavenly Dao Hongjun remained expressionless as he looked at Taiqing and Yuqing, saying, "Hand over the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner."

Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun's expressions changed drastically, their hearts filled with alarm. "Oh no! He's going to take away our most precious treasure?"

Jieyin and Zhunti secretly smiled to themselves, 'Excellent! This is wonderful! Now that Taiqing and Yuqing have lost their innate treasures, they're back in the same tier as us, the Two Sages of the West.'

The power of innate treasures is truly terrifying!

Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun were both slow.

Jieyin gave Zhunti a look.

Zhunti immediately understood and shouted, "Our Dao Ancestor Master asked you two fellow Daoists to hand over your treasures. Why are you dawdling? Hand them over now!"

"The Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner were originally bestowed by the Dao Ancestor. Now that the Dao Ancestor has taken them back, what's the problem?"

"How dare you! How outrageous!"

"Could it be that you two fellow Daoists dare to defy the Dao Ancestor?" Zhunti immediately slapped a heavy accusation on him.

Taiqing Laozi was furious.

Yuanshi Tianzun was furious.

Zhunti was ecstatic. "So this is what it feels like for the Chan Sect to label people. I must say, it's really satisfying!"

Taiqing Laozi hesitated for a moment, but finally brought out the Taiji diagram.

Seeing that Taiqing had honestly produced the Taiji Diagram, Yuanshi Tianzun reluctantly offered up the Pangu Banner as well.

The Tai Chi diagram and the Pangu Banner floated in the void above the Zixiao Palace, shimmering with light and radiant with precious glow.

Then they saw the Heavenly Dao Hongjun addressing the void: "Fellow Daoists."

The four sages were taken aback. "Fellow Daoist? They were actually addressed as 'Fellow Daoist' by Hongjun Daozu… no… the Heavenly Dao?"

"Hiss! He's addressed as a fellow Daoist by the Heavenly Dao?"

"As expected, Heaven has powerful allies!"

"Li Yu is doomed this time!"

The sound of the word fell.

Then one could see the Daoist principles of space, time, destiny, and cause and effect flowing out from the void.

The Space Demon God raised an eyebrow, glanced at the Taiji diagram and the Pangu Banner, and smiled calmly, "The once unstoppable Heaven-Opening Axe has become like this."

"Truly...truly a cause for celebration."

The Deity of Fate sneered, "The Heaven-Opening Axe has crumbled. So what if Li Yu is the reincarnation of Pangu?"

"Ha! Even if Pangu himself came, so what?"

"Without the Heaven-Opening Axe, killing him is as easy as crushing an ant!"

The Time and Cause Demon God said in a deep voice, "Didn't Pangu rely on the power of the Heaven-Opening Axe? Without the Heaven-Opening Axe, he was nothing."

Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jieyin, and Zhunti were terrified. They were actually plotting to kill Pangu.

"Holy crap! Is this something I can listen to?"

Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun exchanged a glance, their meaning clear: 'Father God...you are dead, you shouldn't have returned.'

"Father God, why aren't you completely dead? Why did you come back?"

When Pangu returned, the primordial spirits of Taiqing and Yuqing were greatly threatened.

Zhunti asked timidly, "That Heaven-Opening Axe... just what grade of treasure is it?"

The four demon gods didn't even glance at Zhunti.

Hongjun was only a low-level demon god and was not qualified to speak with the four great demon gods.

Zhunti? He's nothing but an ant among ants!

hum!

The Demon God with raised eyebrows was surrounded by a silvery-white Daoist aura, which was a manifestation of the materialized spatial laws.

The power of spatial laws enveloped and bound the Taiji diagram and the Pangu Banner.

hum!

The void shattered suddenly!

The Tai Chi diagram and the Pangu Banner were teleported into a hidden corner of chaos.

Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun's expressions suddenly changed drastically because their connection with the supreme treasure had been severed.

The four demon gods' figures became illusory and departed.

Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Tiandao Hongjun with great urgency and hurriedly said, "Dao Ancestor..."

Heavenly Dao Hongjun gestured with his hand, "No need for further words! Once Li Yu is killed, the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner will naturally return to your hands."

Upon hearing this, Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun breathed a sigh of relief.

The guide's face showed worry and suffering.

Zhunti cried, bitter tears streaming down his cheeks and dripping into his mouth. "Bitter! It's just too bitter!"

"In the West, we have witnessed a great calamity, served as the progenitors of the Dao, and rendered meritorious service, shedding blood!"

"I beg you, Dao Ancestor, the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner should belong to the West."

hum!

Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes flashed with murderous intent!

Ignoring the murderous intent locked on him, Zhunti said, "Over the years, the West may not have done anything particularly meritorious, but they must have put in a lot of hard work, right?"

"Waaaaah, please, Dao Ancestor! That damned Li Yu ruined the Golden Lotus, causing great harm to the Western fortune!"

"The West is in dire need of a magical artifact to suppress its fortune."

"Give the Tai Chi symbol and the Pangu Banner to the West, please."

The Primordial Celestial Venerable was enraged, his killing intent palpable. "Shut your mouth, Zhun! Do you really think my Three Treasures Jade Ruyi is useless?"

Zhunti was so hungry his eyes were practically glowing green. He was so eager to have a chance to eat fatty meat that he was not going to pass it up.

"My Seven Treasures Tree is also very sharp! Brother Dao, you no longer have the Pangu Banner, and we've both been killed by Li Yu. Don't you think you're a match for me?"

Zhunti was not intimidated by Yuanshi Tianzun even without the Pangu Banner!

The Taoist spirit of Taiqing flows!

Jieyin was not to be outdone, his body radiating a divine aura as he faced Taiqing.

It's like snatching food from a tiger's mouth; we're bound to fight for some benefits for the West.

Heavenly Dao Hongjun's expression was indifferent. "Insolence!"

The four saints immediately stopped and bowed, saying, "Disciples know their mistake."

Then, Zhunti began to sob softly, sounding utterly miserable.

Heavenly Dao Hongjun also grew impatient, "Once Li Yu is killed, his Chaos Bell will belong to the West."

Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun grew anxious, "Dao Ancestor..."

Zhunti cried even louder, "Hehe... Thank you, Dao Ancestor... Thank you, Father-in-law, dear father."

Damn it, back in the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the two Western Saints even called Li Yu "Grandpa" for the position of Imperial Tutor. So what if he recognizes the "Taoist Ancestor" as his biological father?

Noodles? What's that?

Ditch the dough! It's a steal!
