Primordial Era: I, Yuan Hong, am solely focused on stability; humanity remains clear-headed.

Chapter 311 Returning to the Primordial Land, Taking Princess Longji Away!

The primordial world.

call out!

A long rainbow stretched across the sky and the earth, coming from the endless heavens and galloping across the endless earth.

Whoosh!

The gale subsided slightly, and Yuan Hong, who was standing on the immortal clouds, had the wings of the wind god on his back gradually fade away. He looked at the familiar primordial land and the boundless mountains and rivers, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"This ancient land is still the most familiar, more beautiful and more reassuring."

Recalling the scene of freely roaming in the boundless starry sky, Yuan Hong shook his head. The starry sky was ultimately too empty and not suitable for most living beings to stay there for a long time. If one's Dao heart wavered, it would not be pleasant.

"The malevolent energy of heaven and earth has clearly become heavier; this great calamity is indeed extraordinary."

Yuan Hong's eyes flashed with divine light, and one could clearly see that there was malevolent energy everywhere, much denser than the starry sky, which obviously represented the unfolding of a great calamity.

Even though it is only the early stage of the Great Tribulation and there has not been much killing yet, the intensity of this baleful aura has already surpassed that of the previous Human Emperor Tribulation, namely the Battle of the Deer!

"Never mind anything else, let's get Longji out first."

Yuan Hong shook his head. The most urgent task was to protect his own people.

Princess Longji has been imprisoned in Phoenix Mountain. If he doesn't interfere, she might be forced to sign a marriage bond by the Old Man of the Moon and others, which could lead to her death!

Swish!

Yuan Hong aimed in the direction of Phoenix Mountain and sped off at breakneck speed, arriving at the foot of Phoenix Mountain in no time.

The Azure Phoenix Pavilion here is where Princess Longji was imprisoned.

Yuan Hong arrived with great fanfare, making no attempt to conceal himself. His immortal cloud trailed a long tail, its divine light radiating powerfully. He suddenly appeared outside Phoenix Mountain, a rare moment of excitement in his heart, and exhaled loudly.

"Longji, I've come to pick you up!"

The enormous sound echoed through the mountains and reached Long Ji's ears inside the Azure Phoenix Palace, also alarming the other cultivators.

"Huh? Who goes there, daring to trespass on the sacred grounds of Heaven!"

"Retreat immediately, or you will be executed without mercy!"

Within the Phoenix Mountain Range, a group of heavenly soldiers and generals stationed there were alarmed. Over a thousand of them rushed out, looking at Yuan Hong above the immortal clouds as if facing a formidable enemy, and shouted at him loudly.

This guy actually dares to make a move on Princess Longji?

Princess Longji was personally ordered by the Heavenly Emperor to be under strict guard, and she was not allowed to leave unless the "opportune moment" was right!

"Huh? They actually arranged for heavenly soldiers and generals to guard it. It seems that old bastard Haotian had already made up his mind to sacrifice Longji. He's truly unworthy of being a father."

Upon seeing these heavenly soldiers and generals emerge, a cold glint flashed in Yuan Hong's eyes.

When he came here last time, there was no one guarding it. Anyway, Haotian was certain that Longji wouldn't have the guts to run away on his own. Otherwise, it wouldn't just be a simple violation of the heavenly rules; he might face even harsher punishment.

Now, Haotian has dispatched a group of heavenly soldiers to guard the area, which clearly shows that he is not at ease and must have been prepared to abandon his daughter Longji!

It's even possible that Longji will be forcibly married off to a mortal general in the future, and eventually be killed by the Golden Spirit Mother. All of this is in Haotian's prediction or even his secret instigation!

Putting everything else aside, at least the person who arranged the marriage was a deity from Heaven.

Yuan Hong was well aware of this tactic, after all, the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect did the same thing, recruiting disciples in advance to find a group of cannon fodder to be scapegoats to replace them on the list!

However, Haotian was clearly more ruthless and merciless, directly using his own daughter as cannon fodder to avoid being dragged into the calamity, thus ensuring his own safety.

Thinking of this, Yuan Hong felt even more disdain for Haotian, realizing that there was no need to give him any face in the future.

Originally, he and Longji had a proper marriage relationship, and Haotian was even his father-in-law.

It seems best to sever the father-daughter relationship between Longji and Haotian.

"Whoosh!"

Within the Azure Phoenix Palace, Long Ji heard the voice he often missed. He paused for a moment, then became extremely excited. He transformed into a beam of immortal light and rushed out, flying in mid-air, looking excitedly at Yuan Hong.

However, she only dared to stay within the Phoenix Mountain area and didn't dare to fly out at all.

Although her cultivation level was already that of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, and her strength far surpassed that of the heavenly soldiers and generals, the heavenly soldiers represented the Heavenly Laws and the will of Haotian.

"Yuan Hong, why are you here to see me at this time? Don't clash with these heavenly soldiers; Father has been keeping a close watch on this place."

Longji had been imprisoned for a long time and had so much to say to Yuan Hong, but now was clearly not the time.

Although she couldn't see through Yuan Hong's cultivation level and didn't know his current strength, she couldn't possibly ignore Haotian's threat.

These heavenly soldiers are nothing special in themselves, but if Yuan Hong is not careful and a conflict breaks out, the consequences could be troublesome.

In the Heavenly Court, face is of utmost importance, especially at this moment.

Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be a problem, but Longji now understands that Haotian has been watching Phoenix Mountain all along.

"I told you last time, I can pick you up when I come."

"Don't worry, even if Haotian himself were here, let alone these heavenly soldiers and generals, he couldn't stop me."

Looking at Long Ji, who was as good as ever, Yuan Hong was in a great mood and said with a smile.

His words seemed to completely disregard the Heavenly Court.

These words immediately enraged the heavenly soldiers and generals.

"Daring to speak disrespectfully to the Heavenly Emperor? You're courting death!"

Wow!

Without saying a word, the heavenly soldiers formed a battle formation, ready to capture Yuan Hong!

Yuan Hong has made it clear that he looks down on the Heavenly Court and even dares to despise the Heavenly Emperor. If they don't show some respect, they will surely be punished later.

Seeing the celestial soldiers and generals, their immortal power gathered beneath the array patterns, determined to cause trouble, Yuan Hong could only sigh.

"I was too lazy to bother with you insignificant characters, but you insisted on rushing to your deaths."

"Fine, I won't kill you. Just stay here obediently at the foot of Phoenix Mountain."

He shook his head, and then, amidst the shocked gazes of the heavenly soldiers and generals, as well as Long Ji, he unleashed his quasi-saint aura.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he activated a minor supernatural power, "Mountain Carrying".

This was one of the first minor supernatural abilities he learned. After using it, he could move giant mountains, and it was quite powerful.

Now, with his vast quasi-saint power, the effect he unleashes is enough to easily move mountains and fill seas, causing the mountains to tremble!

Rumble...

Yuan Hong merely waved his hand, and the earth shook. The vast and endless Phoenix Mountain Range immediately began to move, forming a massive field that confined this place.

The endless earth energy gathered, so thick and boundless that the Heavenly General Formation collapsed instantly, unable to withstand it.

The gravity on each celestial soldier and general suddenly increased countless times, and they fell to the ground like birds that had been shot down.
