Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

"Senior Brother!" Qingxu Moral True Lord's pupils suddenly contracted, and he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. He felt as if he had witnessed the most impossible scene in the world.

His senior brother, Dao Xing Tian Zun, was a top expert who had stood for countless years in the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. He had profound cultivation and boundless magical power. How could he possibly be killed by Yang Jian, whose realm was far lower than his own?

Even though Yang Jian is a disciple of the Holy Lotus Sect, and even though this boy has cultivated the body-refining method of the Witch Clan, the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, which has tempered his physical body to be comparable to that of a Great Luo Immortal.

But how did this kid manage to overcome such a huge gap in cultivation levels and annihilate a powerful expert in the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm? This is almost a violation of the laws of the Great Dao!
Moreover, Qingxu Daode Zhenjun was quite certain that his senior brother's treasure gourd had just suppressed Yang Jian, and that to see what was happening, Yang Jian would have to be sucked into the gourd and turned into pus. How could the situation have changed so drastically in an instant?

How did Yang Jian break free from the suppression of the magic gourd? And how did he manage to kill his senior brother and shatter his soul under the suppression of his senior brother's late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal power?

Yang Jian was exceptionally talented, but no matter what, he hadn't been cultivating for very long. In the eyes of the Pure Void Moral True Lord, Yang Jian was just a junior, with a cultivation level of only the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him an ant.

But Yang Jian had indeed killed his senior brother. Qingxu Daode Zhenjun watched as the fragmented golden light of the primordial spirit dissipated in the air. It was the last glow of Daoxing Tianzun. This scene deeply stung his eyes.

Qingxu Daode Zhenjun and Daoxing Tianzun entered the sect at almost the same time. The two supported each other throughout the Chan Sect. Although they were fellow disciples, their feelings for each other were more sincere than those between blood brothers.

A strong, dizzying sense of unreality instantly seized Qingxu Daode Zhenjun's mind, making him feel as if he were in an absurd dream.

However, that unreal feeling lasted for less than a breath before it was replaced by a raging inferno of fury!

The scene before them was not an illusion. Their senior brother, Dao Xing Tian Zun, was indeed dead, killed by Yang Jian, a third-generation disciple of the Holy Lotus Sect, whom they regarded as an ant!

This humiliation and anger burned fiercely in his heart like a raging fire. As fellow disciples and Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, the Qingxu Moral True Lord felt his Dao heart tremble and his killing intent surge as his senior brother died tragically.

Without the slightest hesitation, the enraged Qingxu Daode Zhenjun took a step forward, shrinking the distance to an inch, and instantly appeared in front of Yang Jian.

At this moment, Yang Jian had just killed Dao Xing Tianzun and was about to collect his spoils. He planned to take Dao Xing Tianzun's spirit treasure gourd back and have his master help him refine it into his own spirit treasure.

At this moment, Yang Jian still had a hint of joy on his face, but the moment he saw Qingxu Daode Zhenjun, his expression changed drastically, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar!

Yang Jian knew that he had only managed to kill Dao Xing Tianzun by chance with the help of his Uncle Youqin. In a real fight, even ten of him might not be a match for Dao Xing Tianzun, let alone Qingxu Daode Zhenjun.

Yang Jian had long heard his master talk about the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, and this Pure Void Moral True Lord was far superior to the Dao Xing Heavenly Venerable.

Qingxu Daode Zhenjun is one of the top-ranked beings among the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect. Although he is Daoxing Tianzun's junior brother, his cultivation is above that of Daoxing Tianzun. He has already reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm and is only one step away from severing his good corpse and attaining Quasi-Sainthood.

If he hadn't been caught in the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, burdened by karmic debts, he probably would have already transcended the shackles and attained quasi-sainthood.

Faced with the powerful and completely enraged Qingxu Moral True Lord, Yang Jian dared not be arrogant or linger in battle. Although he was extremely reluctant to part with the magic gourd, preserving his life was of utmost importance.

Therefore, Yang Jian made a decisive decision, abandoning the spiritual treasure that was within reach. His figure transformed into a white lotus-like phantom, and he used the exquisite White Lotus Escape Technique to try to retreat quickly and create distance.

Although Yang Jian's reaction was extremely fast, he was still a beat too slow in the face of a powerful, enraged attack from a peak-level Great Luo Golden Immortal.

With a flick of his white jade whisk, the Pure Void Moral True Lord seemingly casually unleashed a strike that contained the full power of a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal and boundless rage over his senior brother's demise.

A highly refined beam of Jade Purity Immortal Light, enhanced by the Spirit Treasure Whisk, unleashed terrifying power, striking Yang Jian's fleeing figure almost instantly.

Yang Jian felt as if he had been struck head-on by an ancient divine mountain, and an overwhelming and terrifying force instantly pierced through his entire body.

Yang Jian groaned and spat out a mouthful of blood. He could no longer maintain his escape technique and fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string. With a loud bang, the ground cracked open, and he crashed heavily to the ground.

If Yang Jian hadn't cultivated the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique to the mid-fifth stage, forging his physical body to be indestructible and far surpassing that of ordinary Great Luo Immortals, this attack would have annihilated even a Great Luo Golden Immortal, let alone a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Yang Jian struggled to get up from the ground. At this moment, he felt as if all the bones in his body were groaning and his blood and qi were churning.

The Pure Void Moral True Lord in the air remained expressionless, his eyes as cold as the ice of the Netherworld. He gave Yang Jian no chance to catch his breath, and waved his white jade whisk once more.

This time, the whisk threads were no longer soft white hairs; millions of whisk threads instantly became crystal clear and as hard as steel, transforming into countless flying needles under the immense magical power of a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Each of these flying needles was powerful enough to pierce mountains and shatter the void, whistling fiercely as they enveloped Yang Jian's vital points like a torrential rain.

Yang Jian's expression changed drastically. He realized that this Pure Void Moral True Lord actually wanted to break through his proud Nine Revolutions Profound Technique in one fell swoop!
Clang! Clang! Clang! The sound of the impact, as dense as rain, echoed through the sky, and sparks flew everywhere.

The golden light emanating from Yang Jian's body flickered violently as he endured the attack, which was comparable to divine punishment.

However, the magical power of a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal is so immense that even with the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique at its peak, it began to be unable to withstand it.

Soon, shocking crimson bloodstains began to quietly appear on his skin. Yang Jian could clearly feel that his protective magic was being worn down at a visible speed. If this continued, his strongest reliance would also become useless, and death would await him.

Yang Jian was at his wit's end and had no choice but to seek help. So he cried out in his mind, "Uncle-Master, save me!"

Youqin Yueyue chuckled and pointed.

The next second, a dazzling golden-pink stream of light, carrying an indescribable mysterious aura, suddenly shot up from Yang Jian's sea of ​​consciousness!

The stream of light transformed into a palm-sized, crystal-clear, and alluringly shimmering twelve-petaled golden-pink lotus platform.

As soon as the lotus platform appeared, it began to spin rapidly, forming a strange light curtain. This light curtain, though seemingly thin, possessed unimaginable power, easily blocking the Qingxu Moral True Lord's dust-whisker rain, which was capable of destroying all things.

Qingxu Daode Zhenjun frowned and increased the output of his magic power, making the needle rain even denser in an instant.

However, such a terrifying rain of needles could not shake the pink light barrier in the slightest, bringing the Qingxu Moral True Lord's determined attack to an abrupt halt!

At the same time, wisps of pink gas, imbued with an eerie charm, surged forth from the depths of the golden-pink lotus platform as if they possessed a life of their own.

They were not physical entities, yet they moved with incredible speed, disregarding spatial distance. Before Qingxu Daode Zhenjun could even react, they swiftly entered his seven orifices, heading straight for his soul. The moment the mortal energy entered his body, Qingxu Daode Zhenjun trembled violently, an unprecedented heat instantly engulfing his entire being.

Immediately afterwards, endless, tidal waves of desires and thoughts surged wildly in his mind.

The desires of men and women, the desire for power, the desire for fame and fortune... all the worldly desires that he usually suppressed and cut off with the Jade Purity Immortal Technique were now magnified infinitely, turning into the most primal and intense impulses, which overwhelmed his pure Dao heart that he had held for countless years in the blink of an eye!

Qingxu Daode Zhenjun quickly sat cross-legged and desperately circulated the Jade Purity Immortal Technique, attempting to suppress the turbulent worldly energy within his body and resist its erosion with his unwavering Dao heart.

However, this strange worldly energy seemed to specifically suppress his cultivation, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not stop the rampant growth of his desires.

The Pure Void Moral True Lord could clearly sense that his soul was trembling and his Dao heart was filled with sorrow. The feeling of being tainted by filth caused him immense pain.

As his desires grew, the Dao heart of the Pure Void Moral True Lord began to tremble and cracks appeared, eventually shattering like a mirror!

At the same time, the Great Luo Dao Fruit of the Pure Void Moral True Lord also collapsed. His vast magical power at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal collapsed like a flood in the blink of an eye. His aura quickly became weak and listless, and his realm actually fell back to the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal.

How could Yang Jian miss such a golden opportunity? A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and his previous embarrassment and pain instantly transformed into the driving force for a decisive victory.

Without hesitation, Yang Jian raised his blood-stained three-pointed double-edged sword and moved with lightning speed, instantly arriving in front of the Qingxu Moral True Lord, who had suffered severe injuries, had his Dao heart shattered, and whose aura had plummeted to the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

The incredibly sharp blade, carrying all of Yang Jian's power and killing intent, pierced fiercely into the chest of the Pure Void Moral True Lord!
The terrifying power erupted instantly, not only completely destroying his physical body, but also turning his soul, which had lost the protection of the Great Luo Dao Fruit, into the most complete nothingness!

The Pure Void Moral True Lord, a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal of the Chan Sect, perished here!
Youqin Yueyue's mouth was slightly open. Just now, Daoxing Tianzun had fallen, and now Qingxu Daode Zhenjun had also fallen. This made Youqin Yueyue regret destroying Qingxu Daode Zhenjun's cultivation.

This time, the Primordial Celestial Venerable will definitely show himself!

"Yang Jian is too bloodthirsty. I need to ask Senior Brother Yu Ding to discipline him properly when we get back," Youqin Yueyue thought to herself.

Of course, disciplining Yang Jian at this moment is not important; what is important is how to face the wrath of Yuanshi Tianzun.

As expected, just as Qin Yueyue had predicted, a jade ruyi appeared out of thin air and smashed down on Yang Jian.

Youqin Yueyue sighed and immediately appeared, followed by her three corpses. The mortal energy surged, and the accumulated incense and vows of countless eons connected Youqin Yueyue's three corpses.

The next second, a vast and ethereal holy might swept across the entire battlefield.

Youqin Yueyue's three corpses have temporarily merged and returned to her original body, with a phantom Primordial Golden Immortal Dao Fruit floating above her head.

With a flick of her wrist, Youqin Yueyue blocked the Jade Ruyi of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, preventing it from falling any further.

"Holy Saint! Uncle Youqin, you've become a saint!" Yang Jian asked in shock.

"I have not become a saint. I have only temporarily fused my three corpses by borrowing the aura of the mortal world and the power of incense and vows. If I want to completely complete this step, I still need some accumulation."

Youqin Yueyue did not speak. She was now only half a step away from achieving the Great Luo Golden Immortal Dao Fruit through the fusion of her three corpses.

The simplest way to take this half-step is for the Shang Dynasty to win the Investiture of the Gods.

Youqin Yueyue is an ancestor of the royal family of the Great Shang Dynasty. With the fortune of the Great Shang Dynasty being stabilized once again, Youqin Yueyue, as an ancestor, can naturally take that half step by taking advantage of the fortune of the Great Shang Dynasty.

Otherwise, Youqin Yueyue would have to continue doing good deeds and accumulating merit in the human world as the White Lotus Saintess, earning a massive amount of incense offerings and vows until she completes the accumulation and can then attain enlightenment.

Who knows how long the latter will take?

That's why Qin Yueyue kept a close eye on the situation at Sishui Pass and immediately stepped in to help Yang Jian when he encountered a crisis.

How can one not care about matters concerning one's own path to enlightenment?

Of course, Yang Jian was unaware of these matters. Qin Yueyue answered Yang Jian's questions, both to clear up his doubts and to tell Yuanshi Tianzun that with her there, unless Yuanshi Tianzun personally intervened, simply throwing out a jade ruyi would not be enough to kill Yang Jian.

Youqin Yueyue knew she was no match for Yuanshi Tianzun, but if Yuanshi Tianzun took the initiative to intervene, her teacher would have a reason to do so.

To Youqin Yueyue's surprise, before Yuanshi Tianzun could even make a move, heavenly punishment had already descended. She could vaguely sense that this time, the heavenly punishment was aimed at her for violating the prohibition established by the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man that sages should not interfere in the Investiture of the Gods.

Youqin Yueyue's expression changed slightly, and she quickly withdrew the worldly energy and the power of incense and vows. The three corpses that had been temporarily merged also dispersed, and the heavenly punishment disappeared.

Without the protection of Qin Yueyue's saintly power, Yuanshi Tianzun's jade ruyi fell towards Yang Jian once again.

Although Qin Yueyue's saintly magic had reduced the power of the Jade Ruyi by 99%, even if only a fraction of the saint's power remained, it was still something that Yang Jian, a Taiyi Golden Immortal, could not withstand.

Youqin Yueyue originally wanted to have her benevolent corpse take action, but at this moment a figure appeared in front of Yang Jian, which was none other than his master, Yu Ding Zhenren.

Jade Cauldron Immortal, wielding the supreme innate spiritual treasure, the Wuxu Dingkun Sword, faced the Jade Ruyi of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

With a loud crash, the jade ruyi was sent flying, and the ground beneath Jade Cauldron Immortal's feet cracked inch by inch.

But in any case, the new attack from Yuanshi Tianzun was blocked.

Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly. He originally wanted to make a move, but due to the prohibitions of the three paths of Heaven, Earth and Man, and because he could clearly sense that Bai Jing was sitting cross-legged above Kunlun Mountain, if he made another move, Bai Jing's Four Extremes Venerable would suppress him. In the end, Yuanshi Tianzun chose to give up.
