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

"burst!"

A fierce glint flashed in Di Jun's eyes as he abruptly activated the Hetu Luoshu!

Just as those thirty-six main stars were about to self-destruct and the power of star destruction was about to erupt.

"well......"

A very faint sigh echoed throughout the entire primordial world.

The sound was not loud, but it resonated clearly in the hearts of every living being.

The voice carried a detached indifference that seemed to have seen through the vicissitudes of time, an absolute transcendence that rose above all cause and effect conflicts.

The moment the sigh fell!

"Buzz..."

Within the Zhou Tian Star Array, the thirty-six main stars, whose radiance was surging, whose cores were trembling violently, and who were about to self-destruct, suddenly solidified.

It was as if an invisible hand was gently pressing them down.

The next second, all the violent stellar power receded and subsided like the receding tide.

The starlight dimmed and resumed its normal flow.

The devastating shockwave of the self-destruction vanished silently...

Not only that.

The entire Zhou Tian Star Array, a massive array consisting of over three hundred main stars and tens of thousands of auxiliary stars that covered hundreds of millions of miles of sky, was now slowly fading and dissipating, like a sand painting blown away by the wind.

The illusory images of stars disappeared, the array patterns collapsed, and the starlight went out.

In just a few breaths, the Zhou Tian Star Array, which had once attracted the attention of sages and intimidated the primordial world, had completely disappeared.

It's as if it never existed.

Almost at the same moment.

Ten thousand miles away in the void, the towering Pangu phantom, exuding the might of creation, trembled slightly.

Dijiang and the other twelve ancestral witches simultaneously groaned, and the terrifying blood and qi surging around their bodies suddenly became chaotic.

The illusory image of Pangu faded rapidly from reality to illusion, eventually transforming into twelve streams of blood-red light that returned to the bodies of the twelve Ancestral Witches.

The Great Array of Heavenly Gods and Demons... was also forcibly disbanded.

The world was utterly silent.

Only the lingering echo of that sigh still reverberates in the void.

All living beings, whether they are the billions of demons inside and outside the Demon Court, the billions of humans below, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, or even the divine senses that are secretly spying.

At that moment, everyone was deeply shaken, and a sense of awe, stemming from their very life-giving instinct, arose involuntarily.

That is reverence for the supreme being.

It is a fear of the rules of heaven and earth themselves.

"This is......"

Di Jun's pupils shrank sharply, and all the color drained from his face instantly.

He stared intently at a certain point in the void, gripping the Hetu Luoshu tightly.

Donghuang Taiyi was also stiff all over. The Chaos Bell trembled slightly in his palm, and the inscriptions on the bell flickered, as if it were also afraid of something.

Bai Ze, Qin Yuan, Jiu Ying...

All the demon gods turned pale and involuntarily lowered their heads.

They knew who had come.

In the primordial world, such immense power existed, capable of causing the two unparalleled arrays, Zhou Tian Xing Dou and Du Tian Shen Sha, to vanish simultaneously with a single sigh...

Only one person.

"Buzz..."

Deep within the void, a barely perceptible purple ripple quietly spread out.

Immediately afterwards, a figure slowly stepped out from the ripples.

He was an elderly man dressed in a simple purple Taoist robe.

His face was plain, with deep wrinkles, as if he had lived through countless years.

His eyes were half-open, half-closed, with a detached gaze, reflecting the cycle of birth and death, and the endless cycle of the universe.

He had no dazzling aura or overwhelming pressure around him.

There is only one kind of supreme Daoist charm that is completely integrated with heaven and earth, as if he is the Dao of Heaven, and the Dao of Heaven is his Dao.

He stood silently in the void, yet it seemed as if he stood at the end of the long river of time.

The past, present, and future all flowed in his eyes.

He was the first sage of the primordial world, the ancestor of the Xuanmen Dao, a supreme being who merged with the Dao of Heaven!

Hongjun Daozu!

The Dao Ancestor has appeared!

"boom!"

Throughout the entire primordial world, the hearts of all living beings seemed to have been struck hard by an invisible hammer!

Those divine senses that had been secretly spying on them, like startled birds, instantly dispersed without daring to linger.

Who dares to be presumptuous before the Dao Ancestor when they are below the level of a sage?

Even those ancient beings that have been hidden deep within the world since the beginning of time have now concealed all their auras and dare not reveal even a trace of them.

Between heaven and earth, only the sound of the wind howled.

Hongjun Daozu calmly swept his gaze across the area below.

Upon seeing this, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi tensed up and involuntarily bowed in respect.

"Emperor Jun (Taiyi) pays respects to the Dao Ancestor!"

Although the Twelve Ancestral Witches did not cultivate their primordial spirits or respect the Heavenly Dao, they still felt a sense of oppression from the depths of their blood under Hongjun's indifferent gaze.

Dijiang took a deep breath and led the other ancestral witches in a slight bow:

"Emperor Jiang of the Wu tribe greets the Dao Ancestor."

Hongjun nodded slightly, without saying anything more.

His gaze finally settled on... Xuan Du.

Eyes facing each other.

Xuan Du felt a slight tremor in his heart.

The Dao Ancestor's gaze, seemingly calm, seemed to pierce through all illusions and look directly into the deepest part of his soul.

However, this was expected.

After all, the lich is the main character in this cataclysmic event.

The goal was to incite the Lich and Demon races to fight each other, causing as many lives as possible to perish.

Have you not seen how many creatures perished during the great calamities of ferocious beasts and the great calamities of dragons and Han?

How could the Dao Ancestor Hongjun sit idly by and watch himself destroy the Demon Court?

Xuan Du remained calm and respectfully bowed.

"Junior Xuandu pays respects to the Dao Ancestor."

Hongjun gazed at him silently for a moment, then slowly spoke, his voice as still as a deep well:

"Xuan Du".

"A century of chaos, the sword slays the Burning Lamp, the Xuan Turtle is captured, the Kunpeng is gathered, the martial path is established, and the human race is united..."

"Now, in his primordial form, he leads billions of humans to besiege the Demon Court, shatter the celestial constellations, and summon the Witch Clan to press upon the border..."

"Do you... know your crime?"

The moment the word "sin" was uttered, the laws of heaven and earth resonated faintly, as if proclaiming some kind of judgment.

Upon hearing this, both Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi had a look of pleasure flash in their eyes.

The Dao Ancestor has questioned me!

Xuandu has caused such a commotion today, almost triggering an early decisive battle between the Lich King and the Demon King, disrupting the progress of the Great Tribulation... How could the Dao Ancestor tolerate it?

The twelve ancestral witches also had different expressions.

Dijiang frowned slightly, while Donghuang Taiyi's eyes flashed with a hint of schadenfreude.

No matter how strong Xuandu was, he ultimately failed to become a saint.

Before the Dao Ancestor... how are we any different from ants?

however.

Faced with the Dao Ancestor's questioning, Xuandu slowly straightened up, his gaze clear, looking directly at Hongjun:

"Reporting to the Dao Ancestor, this junior does not know where I have committed my crime."

Upon hearing this, the world fell silent.

Di Jun and the others all showed expressions of disbelief.

Xuan Du... dares to be so defiant in front of the Dao Ancestor?
