Primordial Era: The Great Emperor Ziwei! Lord of the Celestial Stars!

Chapter 145 Zhen Yuanzi bids farewell to Hongyun! Severing karma! Bestowing the Book of Earth!

Wuzhuang Temple in the Primordial Central Region

Along with the memory beads related to the Battle of Mount Sumeru, and all sorts of rumors, they spread throughout the myriad races of the primordial world and the four seas and eight wastelands.

Even though Hongyun and her companion never left their home, they gradually learned some relevant information from the cannon fodder arranged by Xingting.

Although these rumors come in different versions.

The speculations about Hongjun's conspiracy have evolved from a few initial rumors spread by the Star Court to hundreds of theories passed down through word of mouth!

But no matter how terrifying the evolution becomes, its core remains largely unchanged.

All of these changes are based on the layout of the Quasi-Saint Path and the Six Paths Primordial Purple Qi.

Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi didn't care too much at first.

However, as rumors spread, various false and true pieces of evidence circulated among all living beings.

The two of them had to admit that the problems they were facing had reached a point where they had to find a solution.

"Fellow Daoist, the situation in the outside world is currently turbulent."

"It is widely rumored that the Primordial Purple Qi is a scheme set up by the Dao Ancestor, and that all those who receive the Primordial Purple Qi will become stepping stones for him to ascend to the Primordial Heavenly Dao."

After careful consideration, Hongyun...

They found Zhen Yuanzi and wanted to know what he was thinking.

If possible, hand over the Primordial Purple Qi directly.

This way, one can avoid a life-or-death ordeal.

Perhaps we can even gain some benefits and resources in return!

"These rumors have only intensified."

"To prevent the rumors from becoming reality, why don't we hand over the Primordial Purple Qi?"

"Once we hand over the items, no matter what trouble they cause outside, it will have nothing to do with us anymore."

Zhen Yuanzi also longed to hand over the Primordial Purple Qi.

But sometimes, some things...

It's not something he can solve simply by wanting to.

In particular, the magic weapon that Hongjun gave him was the Pangu Banner, which was the number one offensive treasure among the innate treasures!

From the moment I received the magic weapon.

His fate was no longer something he could control.

I am just a pawn in Hongjun's hands.

If a chess piece acts on its own initiative, its only fate is death.

He wasn't actually afraid of death.

He was just worried that his decision-making might implicate his friend, Hongyun.

As a pawn, he can no longer control his own future.

Only by following the moves of the chess players, until the moment when their own value is completely squeezed out, can they completely extricate themselves.

As for what happens after escaping, the only outcome is death and the annihilation of one's spiritual essence.

They were still able to barely survive in the world.

It all comes down to how important this piece is...

"Red Cloud, the moment the Primordial Purple Qi descended, everything was beyond my control."

"Regardless of whether the rumors circulating outside are true or not."

"I'm already trapped in this quagmire."

Zhen Yuanzi shook his head in response, his eyes indifferent.

He took out his natal magic treasure, the Earth Book, from his bosom.

"The Primordial Purple Qi is the puppet string that controls me."

"If things go according to the controller's expectations."

"I still have a glimmer of hope."

"If I cut the puppet strings, I might be able to find some peace."

"But that only brings temporary peace."

"When the manipulator discovers that the piece has broken free of control, that will be the time for my complete destruction!"

The moment the words left his mouth, Hongyun stared in shock, bewilderment, and panic.

With a swift movement, Zhen Yuanzi severed all causal ties between himself and the Earth Book!

In an instant, the solid barrier that had been shrouding Wuzhuang Temple gradually dissolved into the heavens and earth.

Zhen Yuanzi's cultivation level also plummeted to around the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm due to the backlash from forcibly severing the connection with the magic weapon!

Furthermore, due to the fact that the origin of the Earth Book and its own origin have long been integrated together.

Completely stripping away the Earth Book is tantamount to cutting oneself in the process of creating something from one's own origin!

This resulted in a decline in his cultivation level.

It was only the least damage he suffered.

The loss of his original essence and the damage to his true spirit are the most serious harms he is currently suffering from the backlash!

If we don't find a way to restore both in a short period of time...

At the very least, Zhen Yuanzi's cultivation would stagnate, his physical body would be extremely fragile, and his soul would be weak and powerless!

"Fellow Daoist, what are you doing!"

The instant Zhen Yuanzi placed the Earth Book in front of him.

Hongyun finally snapped out of her shock.

He hurriedly slipped to her side, looking flustered.

With his own magical power and essence, he helped repair the damaged essence and soul.

"Hongyun, I am already deeply entangled in this game and cannot extricate myself."

"But you are still free."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"The Earth Book is the most powerful defensive magic weapon in the world."

"With him, no one can harm you in the slightest."

As they were talking, Zhen Yuanzi forcefully pushed Hongyun aside and shoved the Earth Book into her hand.

"Now, the defenses of Wuzhuang Temple have failed."

"The wolves that have been waiting outside will also come to test the waters."

"Take this and find a secluded place to hide."

"If I can extricate myself from the game, I will come to find you."

"But what if I perish in the game of chess?"

"No matter who killed me."

"Just live your life well, carrying my share."

"Never even think about avenging me, understand!"

Hongyun looked at Zhen Yuanzi's resolute yet slightly pleading eyes.

He opened his mouth slightly several times, but did not utter any words to persuade the other party to take back the Earth Book and leave with him.

He knew this was the result of careful consideration by the other party.

They also clearly understood what kind of person the other party was.

If it weren't for him as a source of concern...

Perhaps it has already tried to break free of its shackles!

"You are a carefree cloud, overlooking the human world."

"Now is the time to return to the skies and roam the heavens."

Zhen Yuanzi watched Hongyun struggle in silence.

I forced myself to cheer up and managed a slight smile.

"Let's go, the farther the better."

"Please don't..."

However, just as Zhen Yuanzi was persuading Hongyun to leave.

The cannon fodder who were protected by Wuzhuang Temple were discovered.

Although I don't know what happened.

But they knew this was a golden opportunity.

Having received the grace of the Star Court, they were given a chance to be reborn.

Your closest family members will no longer have any worries!

Even though the Wuzhuang Temple is currently a den of dragons and tigers!

They also need to go in and take a look!

Set an example for other hunters.

This will leave them with absolutely no scruples!

"Zhen Yuanzi, hand over the Primordial Purple Qi at once!"

To ensure everything went perfectly, the acting was incredibly realistic.

The cannon fodder chosen by Tongtian and Nuwa.

They are basically all around the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

The first cannon fodder to rush into Wuzhuang Temple was the strongest among them, possessing the cultivation of a Great Luo Golden Immortal at the peak!

His imposing aura poured down without reservation.

This caused Zhen Yuanzi, who was already suffering from a backlash and whose breathing was unstable, to instantly spit out a mouthful of black blood mixed with his internal organs.

His cultivation level plummeted to the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in an instant!
