Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 22 Dao Ancestor
As soon as Hongjun finished speaking, all the powerful people in Zixiao Palace turned their heads and looked at Tongtian.

In fact, let alone these outsiders, even Tongtian’s two elder brothers, Laozi and Yuanshi, looked at Tongtian with a little surprise, or to be precise, they looked at the Zhuxian Sword Formation in Tongtian’s hand.

According to the saint, the Zhuxian Sword Formation can only be broken by the Four Saints. Doesn't that mean that even if someone becomes a saint in the future, he won't be able to defeat Tongtian in a one-on-one situation?

Thinking of this, Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't help but feel a strange emotion in his heart, but this emotion was soon replaced by joy. The Three Pure Ones are one family, and how could he not be happy that his brother had obtained such a powerful formation diagram?
Laozi also had a smile on his face. When he got the Tai Chi diagram, there was no expression on his face. However, Tongtian smiled when he got the Zhuxian Formation diagram. This shows the friendship between the Three Pure Ones.

Then Hongjun turned his gaze to Nuwa who was sitting on the fourth cushion. He slowly said, "Nuwa, you have great fortune and will have a holy position. Are you willing to become my disciple?"

Hearing this, Nuwa was naturally extremely happy and immediately asked to be her disciple.

Hongjun nodded in satisfaction, took out two treasures and a primordial purple aura, and gave them to Nuwa, saying: "This is the top-grade innate spiritual treasure Red Hydrangea and the Mountain and River Map. One is for attack and the other for defense, and they have infinite uses. Moreover, this Red Hydrangea has another good fortune. You will know it when the time is right!"

Nuwa was a little disappointed when she heard that the magic weapon given to her by Hongjun was not an innate treasure, but Hongjun's words afterwards made Nuwa interested in the red hydrangea.

What a saint calls a blessing must be a great opportunity. If you think about it this way, it would not be a loss even if you don’t have an innate treasure.

In addition, Nuwa herself was a non-aggressive person and had her brother to protect her, so there was no point in asking for the treasure. Therefore, Nuwa happily accepted it.

Nuwa was happy, but the powerful people below were not happy.

The saint just said that Nuwa is his last disciple. What does last disciple mean? It means the last disciple! It means the saint will not accept any more disciples!

This was like a bolt from the blue for those powerful people who longed to become saints.

In fact, Hongjun did stop talking after accepting Nuwa.

At this time, the people below were very anxious, but no one dared to speak. However, Jie Yin and Zhunti could not help it. The two of them also sat on the cushions. The previous people had all obtained the sainthood, so why didn’t they?
When Jie Yin was thinking about how to start the conversation, Zhunti, who was sitting next to him, suddenly knelt down on the ground and cried, saying, "Saint, please forgive me. My brother and I are both from the West, but our West is poor and far less fertile than the East. Even the living creatures are scarce. I beg the Saint to have mercy on us in the West and grant us a chance to become a saint!"

Jie Yin was stunned at first, then he sighed in his heart and knelt down.

After hearing the plea of the Western duo, Hongjun above had a flash of complex emotions in his indifferent eyes.

Seeing this, Bai Jing thought: "Now that Jie Yin and Zhunti have opened their mouths to plead, it is the best time for Hongjun to repay the karma. As long as Hongjun allows them to become saints, the karma of the destruction of the Western land veins will be resolved."

The powerful people below were not like Bai Jing who knew that Hongjun owed karma. They just felt that it was shameful to see Jie Yin and Zhunti kneeling on the ground in pain. Many of them looked disdainful, and even Houtu, who was always kind to others, was smiling secretly.

However, what the group of great men did not expect was that Hongjun, who had been indifferent since the beginning of the sermon, suddenly sighed, with a helpless tone in his voice: "Forget it! Although you two do not have great luck or great merit, you have a heart to promote the development of the West. Considering that it is not easy for you two to practice, I will accept you as my registered disciples!"

Jieyin and Zhunti were overjoyed. They both thought it was good enough to get a saintly position. Who knew Hongjun would give them two saintly positions and even accept them as registered disciples. A saint's registered disciples are still disciples. With this status, no one in the prehistoric world would dare to covet the Hongmeng purple qi bestowed by the saint. Doesn't this mean that they will definitely become saints?

Thinking of this, the two of them burst into tears of gratitude and knelt down to thank Hongjun.

The powerful people below were stunned instantly. Is this possible? Could it be that the saints would fall for this?
In fact, Hongjun really didn't want to accept these two people, especially the way they just knelt on the ground and cried, which made Hongjun feel ashamed.

So his helpless tone was not pretended, he was truly helpless.

But it was because he destroyed the Western land due to Luohu's self-explosion during the battle between Taoism and Demons that he owed the West karma. If he did not give the West two saints, it would be difficult to repay the debt.

In addition, the Heaven has decreed that a saint should emerge from the West, and he cannot disobey it. Now the only powerful being the West can offer is Jie Yin and Zhunti, so who else can he give it to if not them?

Thinking of this, Hongjun shook his head, bestowed two primordial purple qi, and then took out two magic weapons and bestowed them together: "This top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Twelve-grade Merit Golden Lotus and the Blessing Divine Pestle, will be given to you two for self-defense!"

When the two got the treasure, they immediately smiled with joy. Their expressions changed so quickly that all the powerful people were dumbfounded.

Jie Yin and Zhunti were too lazy to pay attention to the gazes from below. They had obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi and each of them had obtained a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, which was already very satisfying. So what if they were stared at a few more times?
Seeing that the mighty ones sitting on the cushions had obtained the saintly position, the mighty ones below had all understood the significance of the cushion. After all, everyone sitting on the cushion had obtained the primordial purple energy, which was equivalent to everyone holding a saintly position. In other words, once the seat was decided, the saintly position was also decided.

After understanding this, countless powerful people looked at Kunpeng and Hongyun with strange eyes.

In Kunpeng's eyes, those looks were clearly naked mockery!
After all, the others either didn't think about fighting for the cushion from the beginning, or they couldn't get it. Only he and Hongyun had sat on it.

The idiot Hongyun gave up his seat, but he was pulled down by force!
Thinking of this, Kunpeng's hatred towards Hongyun and the Western duo reached its peak.

"Saint, except for your disciples, the rest of us have no chance to obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi?" Di Jun asked unwillingly.

Hongjun pondered for a moment and then sighed, "Well! I have a total of seven purple qi in my hands. Now six have been given to my disciples. This last one will fulfill the spirit of Zixiao Palace's preaching. I will give it to you. Those who are destined to receive it will obtain it."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jun was overjoyed: "Thank you for your mercy, Saint."

"A saint preaches the world and educates all living beings. He should be the teacher of the ancient times and the ancestor of all paths. He is called the ancestor of Taoism!" As soon as Emperor Jun finished speaking, a skinny Taoist priest who was sitting in the back and whose cultivation was only in the early stage of Daluo Jinxian spoke.

Upon hearing this, Hongjun suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the Taoist.
