After the power of Hongjun's self-corporeal self-destruction broke through Tongtian's Immortal Slaying Formation, just as Tongtian had predicted, the shockwave rushed towards Taishang. The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda above Taishang's head emitted wisps of Mysterious Yellow Qi, shielding Taishang and easily resolving the impact!
Hongjun spat out a large mouthful of blood, glaring hatefully at Tongtian.
Hongjun had not expected Tongtian to be not only sharp-tongued but also devious, moving his good and evil corpses next to his self-corporeal self just as it was about to explode.
The good and evil corpses had no time to react before they were squarely hit by the self-destruction!
Hongjun ground his teeth, his eyes wishing he could kill Tongtian!
Just as Tongtian was suffering the backlash from the Immortal Slaying Formation, Yuanshi arrived by Tongtian's side and supported him. Tongtian gave Yuanshi a look, and Yuanshi immediately understood his intention!
Looking at Hongjun's gaze, Tongtian spoke weakly:
"Old man, what are you looking at! Doesn't the taste of backlash feel good? Hahaha!"
Yuanshi instantly unleashed the Primordial Measure Heaven Ruler and the Pangu Banner, both spiritual treasures flying towards Hongjun's good and evil corpses respectively.
The good and evil corpses were already on the verge of death from the self-corporeal self-destruction. How could they withstand Yuanshi's full-power strike? They were immediately shattered by the Pangu Banner and the Primordial Measure Heaven Ruler!
Hongjun let out another cry of pain. With three corpses destroyed in succession, Hongjun could not bear the backlash and turned deathly pale!
Seeing this, Tongtian burst into laughter, mocking:
"Old man, do you like the grand gift my brother and I have given you? Hahaha! Hahaha!"
As Tongtian laughed, he spat out another large mouthful of blood. Yuanshi said worriedly:
"Alright, stop laughing. You look like an idiot. Hurry up and heal!"
Tongtian pouted and said:
"Don't you think his enraged expression is quite amusing?"
Yuanshi ignored Tongtian. After helping Tongtian sit down, he came behind Tongtian and transferred a portion of his Jade Clarity origin to Tongtian. The self-corporeal self-destruction had damaged Tongtian's origin by forcefully breaking through the Immortal Slaying Formation.
Yuanshi also understood that if Tongtian had retracted the Immortal Slaying Formation in time, he would not have been injured. However, doing so would have exposed Taishang to the backlash, possibly even the backlash of the Nine Forms of Heaven Opening.
Watching Hongjun's miserable state, Heavenly Dao Qi could not miss the opportunity to strike while he was down!
Taking advantage of Hongjun's moment of backlash from the destruction of his three corpses, Heavenly Dao seized more control from Hongjun. The situation instantly shifted from an even split to a dominant advantage!
Meanwhile, the Pangu phantom behind Taishang solidified. He suddenly raised his hands, and from this strange space, many pitch-black threads converged towards the phantom's hands, slowly taking the shape of a large axe!
Seeing the black threads, Heavenly Dao Qi and Hongjun's faces changed drastically. Heavenly Dao exclaimed:
"Primordial Chaos Origin!"
Then came immense joy. This Primordial Chaos Origin was the mother qi of all things in heaven and earth. All things were formed from this Primordial Chaos Origin, and it could also destroy all things. The reason Hongjun could not harm him was because he was mistaken for the Heavenly Dao by the Primordial Chaos Origin, thus receiving its protection.
If he had not been careless, with the protection of the Primordial Chaos Origin, Hongjun would never have reached this stage!
However, this Primordial Chaos Origin was also derived from the Primordial Chaos Origin. Now, Taishang's divine ability could mobilize the Primordial Chaos Origin. Once Taishang's cultivation was complete, it would be Hongjun's demise!
Heavenly Dao had not expected Taishang to give him such a great surprise!
Hongjun, on the other hand, looked ashen. Once Taishang's divine ability was cultivated, he would truly have no way out. Tongtian was heavily injured, Yuanshi was healing him, and once Heavenly Dao withdrew, he would undoubtedly seize complete control of the world, leaving him no time to deal with Hongjun. This was the perfect opportunity!
Hongjun immediately broke off his struggle with Heavenly Dao, took out a piece of Primordial Chaos Stone, and fled into the distance!
Yuanshi, noticing Hongjun's departure, wanted to pursue him. However, Tongtian was at a critical juncture and could not be moved. He could only watch Hongjun leave!
Just as Hongjun left, the great axe in the hands of the Pangu phantom was fully formed. Taishang roared towards the direction Hongjun had fled:
"Open Heaven and Earth!"
The Pangu phantom behind Taishang swung the great axe horizontally in the direction Hongjun had fled!
The edge of the pitch-black axe suddenly emitted a white light, and then a white thread shot into the distance. Subsequently, a scream of agony from Hongjun echoed from afar!
"Ah! Sanqing, I will not let you go! Just wait for me!"
After flying far away, Hongjun took out the Primordial Chaos Stone in his hand, which perfectly broke open this strange space. As Hongjun was about to leave, the white thread precisely struck his back, and then Hongjun let out that scream!
Taishang had intended to pursue, but after using the Heaven Opening Divine Ability, Taishang felt as exhausted as if he had been drained ten times overnight, utterly weak!
The previous time he used the Nine Forms of Heaven Opening, he still had some mobility. He had not expected that using it after becoming a saint would be even more taxing, completely draining him with this single move!
After transferring a significant amount of origin to Tongtian, Yuanshi left his side. The rest was up to Tongtian to convert the Jade Clarity origin into Supreme Clarity origin!
Yuanshi immediately went to Taishang's side and helped him up. Taishang stopped him and whispered:
"Let me rest for a while, my legs are weak!"
Yuanshi looked at Taishang with a wry smile, his words making it sound as if they had done something else!
However, Taishang was not injured, only greatly depleted. He needed time to recover on his own, and Yuanshi could not help him further!
Without Hongjun's interference, Heavenly Dao quickly gained control of the world. Qi arrived before Taishang and waved his hand, causing countless spiritual energies of heaven and earth to surge and surround Taishang. The energies even condensed into spiritual liquid.
With Heavenly Dao's assistance, Taishang quickly recovered. Meanwhile, Tongtian had also converted all the Jade Clarity origin transferred by Yuanshi into Supreme Clarity origin. Su Dan Novel Network.
Tongtian said regretfully:
"It's a pity we let Hongjun escape!"
Heavenly Dao chuckled and said:
"Although he has left, he is also severely wounded. Especially by Fellow Daoist Taishang's strike, Hongjun will likely not recover for several aeons!"
Then, Heavenly Dao bowed to the three and said:
"Thank you three Fellow Daoists for your assistance this time. Otherwise, I might have to dissipate forever!"
The Sanqing bowed in return and said:
"We are all part of the Primordial Desolation, and considering your special status, it is only right!"
Heavenly Dao chuckled and said:
"You three should return to the Primordial Desolation quickly. The Primordial Desolation is in chaos, and as the Heavenly Dao, I cannot interfere too much!"
Upon hearing this, Taishang knew that they had been away from the Primordial Desolation for a long time. The only ones who could cause such chaos in the Primordial Desolation were the Wu and Yao tribes!
The three no longer lingered and immediately headed towards the Primordial Desolation!
