Chapter 1019: Chapter 1038: Hong Jun Manifests in the Mortal World
Threatening Ye Xuan with gratitude?
Just because Ye Xuan owes someone a favor?
The Heavenly Sect Master wouldn’t do such a thing, and he decisively refused Laozi: “If it weren’t for the fact that you and Yuanshi, along with me, were all transformed from Pangu’s Primordial Spirit, today the two of you would surely die without question. You need say no more.”
“Hahaha.”
Upon hearing the Heavenly Sect Master’s words, Ye Xuan burst into wild laughter; indeed, the Heavenly Sect Master did not disappoint him.
At this moment!
The Western Two Saints were ashen-faced, with despair reflected in their eyes. Looking across the Three Realms, there was no one who could save the two of them; it seemed they inevitably would die at Ye Xuan’s hands today.
Since there was no hope of survival, an expression of relief appeared in the eyes of the Western Two Saints, and there was no longer any fear on their faces.
“Ye Xuan, you brat, we regret not having killed you in the cradle long ago, otherwise how would there be today’s death tribulation?” Jieyin roared in fury.
“Ye Xuan, don’t think that by killing us two brother disciples today, you are truly invincible in the Three Realms. Eventually, you’ll end up with a fate of soul scattering as well.” Zhunti cursed with resentment.
“Dare to boast even in death, how unfortunate that you won’t live to see the day of my soul scattering. Now, I will send you on your way.” Ye Xuan spoke sinisterly.
“Tribulation Immortal Devouring!”
Ye Xuan roared to the sky as Tribulation Immortal Devouring operated madly. He turned into a black vortex, fiercely pulling the Hongmeng Purple Qi from the bodies of the Western Two Saints, clearly intending to extract the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
To simply kill the Western Two Saints was too easy on them, and Ye Xuan was not one to waste, making use of every scrap, he wanted to extract the last bit of value from the Western Two Saints.
By extracting their Hongmeng Purple Qi, he would directly knock them off their Saint Positions, this was Ye Xuan’s true intention.
“Ah!”
The Western Two Saints howled in pain because Tribulation Immortal Devouring was too brutal, the caster had to endure the torture of having their skin and sinews pulled, as if the bones within their bodies were being extracted by Ye Xuan inch by inch.
“Ye Xuan, you scoundrel, you will die a terrible death.”
The Western Two Saints howled in pain as the Hongmeng Purple Qi was gradually drawn from their bodies, accompanied by Ye Xuan’s cruel and ghastly laughter.
“Ye comrade, you’re going too far.”
Suddenly, a gentle voice echoed throughout the Heaven and Earth of the Three Realms, reverberating across the entirety of the Three Realms, causing even the starry river outside the Thirty-Three Heavens to fall eerily silent.
Dong—dong—dong.
With the Heavenly Dao Thunder Sound, all Laws ceased, strands of Heavenly Dao Golden Light fell upon the Three Realms, the shattered earth gradually drew closed, the crumbled mountains coalesced, and even the ruptured four major continents returned to their original state.
All things revived, vitality flourished, this kind of utterly astonishing scene birthed within the entire Three Realms.
Beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens…
A cyan figure seemed to walk out from the chaos, and with each step he took, the divine sound of the Dao resounded thunderously, blue lotus blooms opened across all heavens, and with the appearance of this figure, all living beings of the Three Realms involuntarily knelt on the ground, their souls trembling violently.
High on the nine-layered clouds, the cushion of the Tao realized true.
Outside Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, I shall be the master of teachings.
Pangu gives birth to the Taiji, two forces follow the four symbols.
One path spreads to three friends, two sects explain and intercept divided.
The Mystical School leads them all, one breath transforms into Hong Jun.
The Heavenly Dao Thunder Sound, the shaking of all heavens, strands of Heavenly Dao Immortal Sound continually coming, as the shattered beyond of the Thirty-Three Heavens gradually restored.
“Hong Jun Daozu!”
Ye Xuan’s expression changed dramatically, his brow tightly knitted, eyes filled with gravity, focusing on the figure in the starry sky.
“Disciple Tongtian pays respect to the teacher.”
The Heavenly Sect Master’s expression changed drastically, he hurriedly bowed down.
“Disciple has met the teacher.”
Daode Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun, faces lit up with joy, hurriedly dragged their heavily wounded bodies to bow down.
“Teacher, save us!”
The Western Two Saints who had no hope of survival found renewed hope with Hong Jun Daozu’s appearance, thrilling their hearts, as brilliance once again filled their eyes.
Upon the starry sky.
Hong Jun Daozu walked leisurely, surrounded by flickering Dao Runes, he was like the heavens, he was like the earth, he was like all beings, representing the supreme will of the Heavenly Dao.
“Ye comrade, we meet again.”
Hong Jun Daozu showed not the slightest ripple, nor did he release any aura, yet simply his presence made Ye Xuan’s heart throb incessantly.
What kind of person was Hong Jun Daozu?
He was the first since the opening of the world, and the teacher of Heavenly Dao Saints, embodying the Heavenly Dao itself.
Unite with the Dao, wield the Heavenly Dao.
The weighty eight words like the eternal heavenly vault fully illustrate the terrifying nature of Dao Ancestor Hong Jun.
“Although I wish to see you, it’s not at this moment.”
Ye Xuan clutched the throats of the Western Two Saints with both hands, and did not release them due to the appearance of Dao Ancestor Hong Jun. Instead, he held the Western Two Saints closely in his grip, his eyes showing a hint of coldness as he looked at Dao Ancestor Hong Jun.
Ye Xuan had never forgotten how, back when he sought to step into Quasi-Saint, this Dao Ancestor Hong Jun manifested and pointed him to a divergent path, almost causing him to become lost in the Heart Demon.
If not for the guidance of Sun Wukong, he wouldn’t know when he might have awakened.
“Young friend resents me?” Hong Jun Dao Ancestor smiled softly.
“Shouldn’t I resent you?” Ye Xuan sneered.
“Young friend misunderstood. In the past, my poor Dao pointed you on the path to Quasi-Saint, not to mislead you, but merely to persuade you to abandon the method of Proving Dao with Power.” Hong Jun Dao Ancestor spoke indifferently.
“Unfortunately, you failed. I still stepped on the path of Proving Dao with Power.” Ye Xuan replied with a grim voice.
“Young friend indeed has the demeanor of Pangu, and you have now even crossed the Heavenly Dao Fifth Tribulation, but do you know one thing?” Dao Ancestor Hong Jun sighed faintly.
“What thing?” Ye Xuan asked coldly.
“This Heaven and Earth was opened by Pangu, and he also fell under the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations. While young friend dwells in the world opened by Pangu, if you truly step into the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations, your power will shatter this Heaven and Earth, and you yourself will perish with soul scattering.”
“That is why my poor Dao advised you not to tread the path of Proving Dao with Power back then and even left the seventh Heavenly Dao Saint position for you. Unfortunately, young friend disdained the Heavenly Dao Saint.” Hong Jun Dao Ancestor sighed lightly.
“Dao Ancestor Hong Jun, master of the Heavenly Dao, how laughable that you should conspire against me, Ye Xuan.” Ye Xuan spoke mockingly.
“My poor Dao has never conspired against young friend; everything was to let the Heavenly Dao operate normally. Unfortunately, you are not of the Three Realms, not under the control of the Heavenly Dao, which led to a series of catastrophes.” Dao Ancestor Hong Jun said softly.
“Do you want to kill me?”
Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, as he felt the pressure of the Heavenly Dao pressing down on him, making him feel as if he couldn’t breathe.
“My poor Dao does not wish to trouble young friend, only to ask young friend to release Jieyin and Zhunti, and to abandon this cultivation of Proving Dao with Power.” Dao Ancestor Hong Jun said gently.
“Release Zhunti and Jieyin? Abandon the method of Proving Dao with Power?”
Ye Xuan laughed, his smile filled with sarcasm, and his gaze towards Dao Ancestor Hong Jun showed a trace of killing intent.
“Hong Jun, do you think it’s possible?”
“Under the Heavenly Dao, all things are like dust. Even if you enter the Heavenly Dao Fifth Tribulation, my poor Dao will still suppress you, as it is your destined fate.” Dao Ancestor Hong Jun spoke plainly.
“Then I’ll kill the Western Two Saints first and see what you can do to me?”
“Die!”
Ye Xuan suddenly lashed out, slamming a palm towards the Western Two Saints. Two strands of Hongmeng Purple Qi were drawn out by him; if this strike landed, the Western Two Saints would surely perish with soul scattering.
“Stop!”
The Heavenly Dao Thunder Sound, all things sink; Dao Ancestor Hong Jun merely flicked a finger, and Ye Xuan found himself immobilized on the spot.
Tremendous, too tremendous, Dao Ancestor Hong Jun united with the Dao, he is the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao is him, and the entire Three Realms are under his control. Even Ye Xuan crossing into the Heavenly Dao Fifth Tribulation could never be his match.
“Please, teacher, have mercy, do not harm Ye Xuan’s life.”
This scene immediately made the Heavenly Sect Master exclaim in astonishment, hastily bowing to Dao Ancestor Hong Jun, pleading for him not to harm Ye Xuan’s life.
“Hong Jun, do you really think you can restrain me?”
Suddenly, just as everyone thought Ye Xuan was suppressed by Hong Jun, an extremely bizarre and horrifying event occurred.
Ye Xuan wore a cruel smile, as strands of silvery-grey light circulated on his body, and his gaze towards Dao Ancestor Hong Jun was filled with disdain.
“I, Ye Xuan, the person I want to kill, not even you, old Hong Jun, can stop.”
“Die.”
Bam!
Ye Xuan’s palm struck down, and the Western Two Saints exploded into two clouds of blood mist without even a chance to scream, perishing with soul scattering.
“Hahaha.”
Ye Xuan laughed wildly at the sky, with the silvery-grey light continuously circulating on his body, seemingly isolating him from the Three Realms, completely unaffected by the suppression of the Heavenly Dao’s power.
“You…?”
The originally gentle face of Dao Ancestor Hong Jun instantly changed dramatically, no longer calm and unruffled. He could not believe that Ye Xuan had managed to break free from his suppression, and even in front of him, obliterated the Western Two Saints with soul scattering.
“The Power of…Space-Time…you cultivated the Power of Space-Time?” Dao Ancestor Hong Jun’s Dharma Eye was as sharp as a torch, and he stared blankly at the silvery-grey light on Ye Xuan’s body, the whole person was extremely shocked.
“All Laws in Heaven and Earth, Space-Time is unique; so what if you unite with the Heavenly Dao, what if you master the Heavenly Dao?”
“I have the Power of Space-Time in my hands; let’s see how you plan to kill me!”
Ye Xuan laughed loudly, a wisp of the Power of Space-Time swirling around him, making his form and presence elusive, completely out of reach of Dao Ancestor Hong Jun’s grasp.
