: Annihilating the Eastern King, and Fighting the Sage Again
Chapter 56: Annihilating the Eastern King, and Fighting the Sage Again
The Three Pure Ones, each a manifestation of Pangu's primordial spirit, have their own lineages.
Taiqing Daoist was fond of alchemy, Yuqing Yuanshi was skilled in weapon crafting, and Shangqing Tongtian studied formations.
Faced with the bizarre scene before him, Master Taiqing wore a serious expression.
The Primordial Law of Jade Purity permeates the entire body.
huh~~~
The Six Ding Divine Fire appeared in Taiqing's palm.
Perhaps sensing danger, those eerie believers roared.
They transformed into one mountain spirit and water monster after another, frantically attacking the two holy beings.
The outside.
After all the sacred things disappeared into the East Sea, the Eastern King Duke held up the Kingdom of Faith above his head with his left hand.
Through Yang Gui's divine kingdom, one can clearly see the battle between the primordial deities and believers in the Eastern King Duke's divine kingdom.
Those believers who were killed were reborn time and time again.
As if they were unkillable, they relentlessly fought off the ancient gods, preventing them from breaking free.
The same applies to the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation below.
"The laws of faith are intertwined with destiny; the Eastern King's ambitions are far-reaching."
Using faith to influence destiny, Dongwanggong is preparing to use the power of faith of the primordial quasi-saints to break through to the quasi-saint realm in one fell swoop, reach the realm of gods being me and the world being me, and enter the realm of primordial saints!
"No god in the primordial world should be underestimated."
Although Yang Gui admired the methods proposed by the Eastern King, he did not believe that he could succeed.
Hongjun's three lectures were not yet complete; his scheme was still incomplete.
This primordial land has not yet been completely shrouded by the Heavenly Dao, and according to Hongjun's nature, he would absolutely not allow anyone to destroy it.
Unlike Yang Gui, whose teachings were transmitted from the bottom up.
The seeds of myriad paths that he passed down blossomed everywhere in the primordial land.
It is a means of endowing all living beings in the primordial world with a powerful self, which can be regarded as a way to promote the prosperity of the primordial world, within the scope permitted by the Heavenly Dao.
The Eastern King Duke is digging into the foundation of the primordial world.
really.
The moment this thought crossed his mind, a gigantic old man's face appeared in the primordial sky.
"Dong Wang Gong! How dare you act so recklessly!!!"
The sage was enraged, and the heavens and earth collapsed.
Lightning flashed across the primordial sky, and spiritual energy surged back.
In the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun's face was full of anger.
He calculated for tens of thousands of years, but something still felt off, so he prepared to go to the prehistoric world to find out.
It was only today, with the warning from Heaven, that he saw what was happening in the East China Sea.
I was both angry and annoyed!
He almost got his reward stolen for no reason; how could he not be furious?
Even sensing the primordial land and hearing the name of the Dao Ancestor Guixuan, Hongjun was so angry that his three corpses jumped wildly and his five energies ran wild.
Lao Tzu went through all those hardships just for the title of "Taoist Ancestor," and yet it was snatched away like this.
In a fit of rage, Hongjun struck the Dharma body of the Eastern King of the East Sea with a palm.
With a single palm strike from the sage, the sky shattered, and the primordial void rapidly collapsed.
It seemed that the Eastern King Duke was already prepared for the sage's wrath.
Raise your faith in the divine kingdom high above your head to block Hongjun's palm strike.
With this palm strike, eight or nine out of ten powerful beings from the primordial era would perish.
How can we let him preach?
Hongjun's expression changed, and he quickly dispersed the attack.
"The holy sage has descended, a cause for celebration with Heaven!"
The voice of the Eastern King was vast and powerful, and golden flowers fell from the void, their five-colored radiance illuminating the primordial world.
Hongjun's eyes narrowed, and he appeared in the primordial world.
"I never expected you to have such talent, actually forging your own path."
Hongjun possessed a fragment of the Jade Disc of Creation and was a sage; he could see through the Eastern King Duke's plan at a glance.
The three thousand holy beings of Zixiao Palace were basically all incorporated into the Kingdom of Faith, and Dongwanggong began to have high confidence.
Even the expression on his face when he looked at Hongjun no longer held the respect he had before.
Behind him, the purple-gold divine dragon roared at Hongjun.
boom!!
The momentum is rising.
A vast amount of faith power surged forth from the Kingdom of Faith and merged into the body of the Eastern King Duke, causing his mid-stage Quasi-Saint realm to rise once again.
In the blink of an eye, he entered the late stage of Quasi-Saint.
Looking at the divine kingdom again, some ancient saints had dull eyes, exhausted and turned into believers.
The Eastern King Duke spoke solemnly, “The sage said that the position of sage in this world is a fair competition. I am about to become a sage, and this position should rightfully belong to me.”
"As the Way of Heaven operates, I also wish to do my part."
This is because they can't distinguish between the two kings.
Hongjun's anger grew stronger, his eyes flashing with cold light. "You know nothing about sages!"
With a flick of his finger, a burst of light erupted.
Click!
The Ten Thousand Immortals Formation beneath the feet of the Eastern King Duke shattered in an instant.
The Myriad Immortals Formation Diagram shattered into seven or eight pieces, scattered in all directions.
Inside the formation, Shangqing Tongtian felt a blur before his eyes and realized he had left the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
Upon closer inspection, the Myriad Immortals Formation Diagram had already collapsed and flown away. He hurriedly sent out several beams of immortal light to collect the broken replica of the Myriad Immortals Formation Diagram.
The Ten Thousand Immortals Formation shattered, and the ancient gods and saints inside flew rapidly away from the feet of the Eastern King Duke, only then realizing that it was a sage who had made the move.
Startled, they all instinctively lowered their heads.
Meanwhile, those demon gods and wandering immortals who became believers continued to kneel at the feet of the Eastern King Duke, becoming even more devout.
Dong Wanggong didn't care at all and waved his hand.
The believers below disappeared and were taken into God's kingdom.
Its massive body became even more imposing.
snort!
Seeing his demeanor, Hongjun snorted coldly.
The oppressive force of Heaven descended, compressing the massive body of the Eastern King Duke within the primordial void.
The Eastern King smiled and said, "Sages follow the Way of Heaven, and I should follow the Way of Heaven as well."
That's all.
Thunder flashed in the endless void, and the East Sea turned dark and without light.
The lotus flower in the Eastern King Duke's hand gradually grew larger and landed beneath him.
Countless streams of light flew out from the Left Hand Faith Kingdom, and the Primordial Saints, including Taiqing Daoist, appeared in the East Sea with weakened auras.
Before they could even stand firmly, they were shocked to discover that the aura emanating from the Eastern King Duke was still rising.
It faintly exudes an aura that surpasses even that of a Quasi-Saint.
Hongjun's expression changed, and he no longer held back.
The might of Heaven is vast and boundless, and the sage is supreme.
The power of endless rules appeared in the primordial void, forming a giant jade disc, which slammed down fiercely towards the Eastern King Duke.
The ancient gods and saints heard a deafening roar in their ears, like a great bell, and felt dizzy.
Facing the fatal blow, the Eastern King's smile widened, "I have succeeded!"
Click!
The Dharma body shattered.
The Dongwanggong's enormous body rapidly cracked and dissipated into the void.
Only a fist-sized, pure white crystal remained, radiating a faint holy light in the void.
"The Dao Ancestor has stopped the demons; we pay our respects to the Dao Ancestor!"
Suddenly, the Taoist Taiqing shouted, his voice resounding throughout the heavens and the earth.
The enormous sound startled all the deities present.
After realizing what was happening, they quickly joined in the shouting.
"Greetings, Dao Ancestor!"
Upon hearing the name of the Dao Ancestor, Hongjun's anger noticeably lessened.
A tremendous force of fortune descended from the sky.
This is a reward from Heaven.
However, at that moment, a fair hand appeared in the void.
The moment the palm appeared, it grasped the crystal left behind by the Eastern King Duke and pulled him into its palm.
"It's actually the divine essence of a creator god!"
Yang Gui was somewhat surprised.
"Return to the Mysterious!"
Hongjun's aura suddenly erupted.
boom!
The Pangu Banner emerged with the force of the storm, stirring up endless space and time.
He appeared beside Yang Gui in less than an instant.
Yang Gui put away the creator god's divine essence left behind by the Eastern King Duke, and a Five Elements Pagoda appeared from the void, colliding with the Pangu Banner.
It was none other than the Chaos Spiritual Treasure Five Elements Pagoda, which Yang Gui had previously used in the Western world to complete the Great Calamity.
boom!
The heavens and earth trembled.
One is a primordial treasure, and the other is a primordial treasure.
The difference in strength and weakness is immediately apparent.
The Pangu Banner was knocked away by the impact and landed in Hongjun's hand.
Yang Gui looked at him and said, "Fellow Daoist, it's been a long time. Your way of greeting me is quite unique."
hum~~~
The Primordial Measuring Ruler, shrouded in purple energy, appeared behind Hongjun.
Thump!
A soft sound struck the suddenly appearing fragment of the Jade Disc of Creation, and it vanished.
"Since you are so eager, fellow Daoist, then I shall have a battle with you."
Yang Gui's voice gradually grew cold and somber.
As soon as he finished speaking, countless laws swirled around him, and three innate spiritual treasures—the Azure Lotus Banner, the Apricot Yellow Banner, and the Flaming Banner—spun around him.
Yang Gui's words shocked all the holy beings, including the Three Pure Ones.
Judging from his aura, this Guixuan is only equivalent to the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint.
But judging from the aura, there's a strange feeling of facing a saint.
To their horrified surprise, Yang Gui's figure vanished in an instant.
When it reappeared, it had already grasped the laws and was locked in battle with the sage Hongjun.
At this time, the primordial world was stable, and Mount Buzhou had not collapsed, making it capable of withstanding attacks from sages.
But all living beings in the primordial world could not withstand it.
Even the primordial saints at the Quasi-Saint realm felt a sense of suffocation, let alone other weaker beings.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Yang Gui and Hongjun fought as they flew into the chaos.
Chaotic void.
Hongjun flashed a white light, and three identical figures appeared. "I didn't expect that you, fellow Daoist, would have combat power comparable to a Saint even though you haven't reached the Saint realm. You truly deserve to be called the Chaos Demon God."
One breath divides it into three parts!
As they spoke, three figures, each wielding a different magical treasure, surrounded Yang Gui.
Yang Gui remained expressionless as the Five Great Emperors suddenly appeared and surrounded Hongjun's avatar.
"I cannot compare to you, fellow Daoist. Your scheming is unparalleled. You actually attacked me despite the backlash from Heaven. Aren't you afraid of being entangled in karma and falling from the Saint realm?"
Yang Gui's figure disappeared again, his fist entwined with laws, and he punched Hongjun.
In a flash, the two of them had already fought tens of thousands of rounds.
The chaotic void trembled, and chaotic energy swept across billions of miles of space and time.
Golden flowers flashed on Hongjun's body, and three intertwined flowers appeared above his head, quickly blocking Yang Gui's attack.
"I represent the Heavenly Dao. If you fellow Daoists are not afraid of the Heavenly Dao, how can I be afraid!"
The celestial light transformed and collided with the five-colored divine light.
The power of laws intertwined, causing folds to appear in the chaotic void.
After several battles, Hongjun was surprised to find that he was actually showing signs of being unable to defeat his opponent.
It even made him feel a sense of threat.
Moreover, although he did not use his full strength in his attacks, most of his attacks were blocked.
With such formidable defensive capabilities, just how many defensive magical treasures does Guixuan possess?
"That slippery demon god is quite something!"
Upon realizing this, Hongjun quickly disengaged from the battle and retreated billions of miles.
There's no point in continuing the fight.
Although the other party is not a saint, they still have some tricks up their sleeve.
It could even disrupt the secrets of heaven and deceive his deductions; the attack that summoned Pangu had not yet appeared.
If this continues, it will only lead to endless entanglement.
"Since you are so powerful, fellow Daoist, you are certainly capable of becoming the Dao Ancestor."
Hongjun suddenly said.
Ok?
Yang Gui's eyes flashed. "To spread the Dao in the primordial world and perfect the Heavenly Dao of the primordial world is what we, the Chaos Gods, should do. The title of Dao Ancestor is just something bestowed upon us by others."
Do you believe what you're saying?
Hongjun looked at Yang Gui speechlessly, wondering when this guy had become so shameless.
They don't even blush when they lie.
The Primordial Heavenly Dao would love for all the Chaos Demons and Gods to fill the various holes between heaven and earth and improve its own operation.
This kind of unspoken calculation was presented to the other party as something perfectly reasonable.
Hongjun was almost moved.
If you're really that aware, then go find a hole to patch yourself, why do you expect me to scheme for you!
Taking a deep breath, Hongjun carefully examined Yang Gui.
He still hasn't figured out the exact origins of this Chaos Demon God.
But Hongjun was deeply shocked by the battle just now.
Most of the myriad laws of power in the battle were given to the opponent by him.
I never expected that in just tens of thousands of years, the other party would have comprehended so much; such terrifying comprehension.
Is it the reincarnation of the Creation Jade Disc, which is imprinted with endless laws?
After thinking for a while, Hongjun spoke with a hint of helplessness in his voice.
"Fellow Daoist, I am not opposing you, but the way of Heaven is what it is, and I have no choice but to follow it."
Yang Gui smiled. "Fellow Daoist, are you suggesting I go against the Heavenly Dao?"
"Don't forget, the Eastern King Duke only met his end because Heaven used your hand, fellow Daoist."
Using someone else to do the dirty work?
You're really something, using the hand of Heaven's will.
