Primordial Era: Cultivation level equals the sum of the Jie Sect's total; the Three Pure Ones a

Just as the atmosphere reached its peak of tension.

"Buzz!"

Another anomaly occurs in the sky!

Endless auspicious light surged from the west, with countless rosy clouds and Taoist charm cascading down like a waterfall.

A golden cloud shrouded in endless auspicious energy appeared out of thin air, illuminating the heavens and impervious to all laws!

Auspicious clouds fill the heavens!

Yuanshi Tianzun stood atop auspicious clouds, dressed in a jade-pure Daoist robe, his face majestic, his eyes brimming with stars.

The moment he appeared, his icy gaze fell upon Xuan Du, filled with undisguised anger.

"Xuandu!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable spoke, his voice carrying an aura of supreme majesty that shook the void.

"How dare you, a junior, talk back to your senior master in such a disrespectful and rude manner!"

He looked down at him and rebuked him:

"Is this how Tongtian taught you? You don't even understand the most basic manners?"

The roaring sound, imbued with the oppressive power of a sage, pressed down on Xuandu.

If it were an ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal, under this pressure and questioning, they would probably have already broken down and knelt down to beg for forgiveness.

however.

Xuandu stood atop the altar, his body radiating a natural flow of primordial Daoist energy, which subtly dissolved the saint's oppressive aura.

His face remained calm, but inwardly he was sneering.

Yuanshi Tianzun!

This guy has popped up again as expected!

He's always there wherever there's excitement.

Moreover, they immediately started by labeling him, bringing up etiquette and hierarchy, and trying to suppress him on a moral level.

Originally, out of respect for Master Tongtian, he did not want to make the situation too ugly.

After all, the Three Pure Ones are one, and even if their philosophies differ, they are ultimately fellow disciples from the same origin.

But Yuanshi Tianzun was relentless, repeatedly targeting him and even directly questioning his master Tongtian's teachings...

Then don't blame him for showing no mercy!

Whether or not humans can cultivate is related to the future of billions of people, and even more so to their own path to enlightenment!

If the cultivation method can be successfully passed down, it will guide these millions of disciples onto the path of cultivation.

With the feedback from the [Summarization System], his cultivation level will surely experience a terrifying surge!

Thus, one can break through to the peak of Hunyuan Golden Immortal in the shortest possible time, or even... Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.

For this opportunity, and for the survival of humanity.

Today, let alone the Primordial Celestial Venerable, even if the Dao Ancestor himself were to come, he would dare to compete!

Just as Xuandu made up his mind and prepared to go all out to confront the two saints.

A calm yet incredibly clear thought silently resonated deep within his mind.

"Never forget the teachings of my Jie Sect."

It's the voice of the Tongtian Master!

His voice was indifferent, revealing neither joy nor anger!

Xuan Du was taken aback at first, then an indescribable joy and sense of peace welled up within him!

The Master's voice transmission at this moment clearly indicated his attitude!

"Seize a chance!"

This is the doctrine of the Jie Sect, and it is what he is fighting for for the sake of the human race and for himself!

His master was telling him to go for it, and that the Jie Sect would be his support!

With the tacit approval and even support of the Tongtian Sect Leader, Xuandu's last trace of concern completely dissipated.

We have more confidence than ever before!

And at this moment, in the sky.

Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun saw that Xuandu remained silent under Yuanshi's rebuke and pressure, simply standing quietly.

It was assumed that he ultimately succumbed to fear under the combined might of the sages and chose to retreat.

Lao Tzu's gaze was indifferent, and the ripples deep within his eyes slowly subsided.

The corners of Yuanshi Tianzun's mouth curled up with an undisguised sneer.

Ultimately, he's just a junior who can't hold his own; he reveals his true colors as soon as he's under pressure.

In the surrounding void, the divine senses of those primordial beings who were subtly probing this place also revealed similar thoughts.

"What a pity, I thought Xuan Du could hold his own to the end..."

"After all, two sages were present. It was already a stroke of luck that he was able to force the Demon Emperor to retreat. How could he dare to truly challenge the sages?"

"It seems he's just an ordinary person. All his previous actions were merely due to the influence of the Sage Tongtian."

"That's enough, there's nothing to see here anymore."

One after another, divine senses, filled with disappointment and disdain, prepared to quietly retreat.

Everyone thought that this sudden confrontation between the sages would end in Xuandu's humiliation and surrender.

however.

Just when everyone thought the situation was settled and Xuandu was about to surrender.

At the top of the altar, the silent figure in blue suddenly moved.

He slowly raised his head, his gaze no longer fixed on Laozi and Yuanshi.

Instead, they looked towards the supreme Zixiao Palace!

Under Laozi's slightly furrowed brows and the renewed fierce gaze in Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes.

Amidst the anxious and bewildered gazes of billions of people.

Under the sudden pause and bewildered gaze of those fading spiritual consciousnesses.

Xuandu solemnly and slowly cupped his hands in the direction of Zixiao Palace.

His face was calm, his eyes clear, yet they held a resolute determination that was astonishing.

The voice was crystal clear, each word resounding across the desolate shores of the East China Sea, and also echoing deep within the hearts of every great being:

"Disciple Xuandu, may I ask my two senior uncles..."

He paused slightly, then his gaze suddenly turned back, sweeping over Yuanshi Tianzun and then over Laozi, whose expression had darkened slightly.

He uttered the question that silenced the primordial world and made all the sages change color:

"If what my second senior uncle said is true, then Master cannot teach his own disciples martial arts techniques..."

"Back then, in the Purple Cloud Palace, when the Dao Ancestor was teaching the method of severing the three corpses to achieve sainthood..."

"Why did you two senior masters listen so attentively to the lectures, and even... ultimately cultivate yourselves?"

"!!!"

boom!!!

These words, once spoken, were like a thunderbolt from chaos, striking the hearts of all beings who heard them!

Time seemed to freeze at that moment!

Space froze!

Everything fell silent!

Everything—the sounds, the colors, the flowing spiritual energy, the pervasive Taoist rhythm...

Everything came to an absolute standstill at Xuandu's question!

Lao Tzu's eternally indifferent face froze instantly, his pupils filled with disbelief!

The majesty and mockery on Yuanshi Tianzun's face shattered completely, turning into shock and rage.

His body was surrounded by a violent, out-of-control radiance of jade-pure immortal light, causing the auspicious clouds and clouds of celebration in the heavens to become disordered!

Those powerful divine senses that were originally preparing to retreat were frozen in mid-air, transmitting extremely terrifying fluctuations!

Below, the three ancestors of Suiren, Youchao, and Ziyi stood with their mouths agape, trembling all over, barely able to think.

The billions of humans looked up in bewilderment. Although they didn't understand, they could sense that something in the world had been revealed by their master in just one sentence!

The Xuandu Altar stands alone, its blue robes fluttering in the wind.

After asking this question, he stopped talking and simply watched his two senior uncles, whose expressions had changed drastically.

He knew that the question he had raised was a dead end that no one could solve and no one dared to answer!

Just like when we asked Yuanshi about Hongjun Daozu's origins before.

Use your own spear to attack your own shield!

You won't let me teach my apprentice?

Why do you go and study the teachings of the Taoist patriarch?

Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian, Nuwa, Zhunti, Jieyin.

All six of them are members of the Xuanmen sect, disciples of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
