The Xun ti had a common appearance, but the monk's bloodstained Buddhist knife, which he used, was left in Ling Shan.
The two sages had their entire treasure and elixirs stripped clean, and with the help of one hand of King Deva, they finally received a satisfactory reply from the Tao of Heaven, which was considered sufficient "deposit."
They needed to venture into the chaos without weapons, fortunately, the elder and younger brothers of the two saints had cultivated their six-inch golden bodies to extremely high levels. They worked together with great synchrony, fighting two against one when facing strong enemies. Even without magical weapons, they could handle the situation quite well.
They each left behind a corpse-slaying manifestation and then dissipated into thin air amidst the gaze of numerous Buddhist disciples.
The pressure fell entirely on the Tao Qing Saint.
Hongjun once again disappeared into seclusion, and with things having reached this point, there was no need for Old Deng to push any further.
This wasn't me, the old man, forcing you. You all left willingly from the Honghuang!
The Tao Qing Saint surveyed his surroundings.
The Primeval Chaos, besides Hongjun, only has him, the Saint of the Tao of Heaven. What a joyous occasion that is indeed!
The Tao Qing Saint was very anxious. Even the principles of Wu Jing (Calm and Quiet) and Ziran (Go with the Flow) could not give him any confidence at this time.
Even a fool knows something is up, and it's something big.
It is certain that something in the Chaos is attracting the few sages.
The Master Brother (Yuanshi Tianzun, Nuwa, Tongtian Jiaozhushi, Jieyin, and Zhentiu) all left him behind. They kept it a secret from him and he didn't receive any news about it.
Good, all good brothers, all good schoolmates!
The Tao Qing Saint's face was as calm as water.
He felt that the root of all this was in his good second brother, Yuanshi Tianzun. What he called finding a disciple was just nonsense! A mere Guangchengzi was worth all this fuss? It's all a conspiracy!
He consulted with Xuanzhong, Jinque, and Taishang. He could actually go and inquire with Hongjun now, but he really didn't want to lose face. The Tao Qing is very proud; his inherent pride is no less than that of Yuanshi and Tongtian. Now being "abandoned" in the Primeval Chaos and not knowing the reason for it, going to ask his teacher again would be too embarrassing.
He has no face to ask.
He left Taixi Tuo to suppress the qi yun of the People's Teaching, left Laojun Taishang in the Primeval Chaos to act as an anchor, and then let the two corpse-slaying manifestations return to his own essence. Afterward, this elder brother of the Mystic Gate also followed and left the Primeval Chaos world.
I don't know why you all left the Primeval Chaos, but it doesn't matter. Tao Qing's cultivation has jumped a big step ahead of King Deva, allowing me to track you from a distance. I want to see where it is that you are going!
Hao Tian was still a little lower in cultivation. When Tongtian Jiaozhushi left, he only notified the four direct disciples. Nuwa's departure was concealed by Hongjun, and Hao Tian had no idea and didn't notice any abnormalities. However, Jieyin and Zhentiu gathered all the disciples and left ostentatiously after dividing the treasure. Adding to this, Tao Qing also followed and fled far away, so he saw everything.
He could only say that he was utterly shocked by this.
At this point, if one were to investigate the temples of the other sages, there would be more clues to uncover. Could it be that all the sages have left the World of Primeval Chaos?
He was a mix of happiness and worry. He was happy that there was no longer the suppression of saintly elder siblings above him, but worried about what level of opportunity could draw out all the saints at once.
There was also an important matter on his mind, which was that he had read about a piece of the Primordial Treasure in the remains of Yangmei. That treasure was hidden at the edge of the outer chaos. Now that all the sages are moving en masse, could it be that they are going to find that treasure?
He was extremely frustrated and wanted to follow them out, but he was genuinely afraid.
In the Primeval Chaos, under Hongjun's watchful eye, he was the younger brother of the sages and the supreme ruler of the Three Realms. But in the Chaos, a younger brother? Haha, he was just a child who could kill two corpses!
Hongjun stroked his beard and smiled. Although the process was a bit strange, the outcome was good, even better than the expected "sages not showing."
Indeed, there can be some opportunities in the Chaos. When one saint finds an opportunity while the others do not, they will put more effort into the Chaos instead of returning to the Primeval Chaos.
In the Zihao Palace, he gradually faded away, and all sorts of thoughts returned to the operation of the Dao.
Dreamland.
Zhao Gongming continued to use the power of the world to break through the dream barrier, consuming a considerable amount of magical energy. At this time, he was resting by his side.
Deng Chanyu used the Duanxian Sword to kill the fire phoenix born in the dream.
Master Dabao used the Zhusen Sword to slay the water phoenix.
Deng Chanyu observed for a while and then pointed to the remains of the fire phoenix and asked, "Are these two currently in your sect?"
Master Dabao nodded: "Indeed, in the past, my master obtained a Prehistoric Gourd while on Mount Bu Zhou. Later, he incorporated the essence of two phoenixes into it and refined it into the Water and Fire Gourd."
The Water and Fire Gourd is still in the Biyou Palace. The two phoenixes, as the main entities, died in battle, and with the power of the Water and Fire Gourd, they were reborn but are currently in a dazed and confused state and cannot dream.
Master Dabao said with conviction, "It seems that we have already left the dream of living beings and entered the dream of the sea dragon itself."
The dreams of ordinary people are at the outermost layer of the dreamland, which can be said to be countless. Deng Chanyu bypassed this part of the obstacle and directly approached from the dragon line of descent such as the Yellow Dragon Immortal. After experiencing more than a dozen dream worlds of immortals, she finally entered the core area, which is the dreams that once comprised the traces of the sea dragon's existence during ancient times. The subjects who once had those dreams may have long since died, but their dreams still remain.
The departure of Tao Qing Saint from the Primeval Chaos seems to have sent out a signal.
Deng Chanyu and Master Dabao both received the signal, and even somewhat weary Zhao Gongming had a sense of it. They all looked out from their dreams simultaneously.
This is a matter that has a profound impact on the World of Primeval Chaos and is closely related to the interests of all students of the mystic schools.
Master Dabao asked directly, "Yuanshi Sister, where is the Mother Goddess Nuwa?"
Deng Chanyu felt that there was no need to hide the matter now: "The master has left the hall of Nuwa and gone to the outer Chaos."
Old Zhao, realizing the seriousness of the situation only after the fact, exclaimed: "The Two Sages of the West, Master Senior, my teacher, the Mother Goddess Nuwa, and plus Second Senior Brother... Now all the sages have left the Primeval Chaos? Is this not a dream?"
He suspected that the Dreamland was affecting his judgment.
Master Dabao and Deng Chanyu looked at him in silence, forcing him to face reality.
Old Zhao indeed had a bit of the appearance of Master Tongtian, and so he spoke boldly at this moment: "What's there to be afraid of? It's just a matter of meeting force with force and covering up when water comes!"
The key to the disciples of the sages lies in the sages themselves. Without saints, they are no different from ordinary immortals in the Primeval Chaos.
There are more than ten times as many immortals from the scattered sects and side sects as there are disciples of the sages, yet it is these less than one percent of sage disciples who occupy more than ninety percent of the heavenly treasures in the Primeval Chaos. Now that the sages have gone far away, scattered immortals are not likely to launch an attack on the great teachings of the sages. Their methods are limited, and if immortal scholars or celestial immortals from those levels were to come to Mount Emei to cause trouble, they would die as many as they came.
Deng Chanyu and Master Dabao were worried about those powerful beings. If they had to fight to the death, they would have little chance against Menghe Laozu, a listener from the Purple Palace.
