Primordial Era: If I remain in Longevity Mountain, I will steadily attain sainthood.

Chapter 112 Conversation

It was Houtu. The only Primordial Golden Immortal in the world who was not a Saint. Of course, Houtu had already attained the Primordial Realm, but that was through merit and virtue.

The "proof of Hunyuan" mentioned now refers to other ways of attaining the Dao besides merit-based proof, namely, attaining the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.

Houtu, like Hongyun and Taiqing Saint, attained Hunyuan once again on the basis of her merits and attained the Dao.

Moreover, the Primordial Chaos attainment that Houtu achieved was extremely unique. She did not attain enlightenment by severing the Three Corpses, but by using force.

Or, to be more specific, it is to attain enlightenment through physical means.

Houtu not only took the opportunity to disrupt and destroy the Mahayana Buddhism on Mount Sumeru during the Great Kalpa, but also avenged her past grievances.

Moreover, she later discovered an extremely unique path to enlightenment.

Her physical proof of the Dao involved fusing the collected essence and blood of the twelve Ancestral Witches, along with their consciousness and lingering resentment, into her own body, ultimately proving the Dao through her own body.

He cultivated to the true Primordial Dao Fruit.

Moreover, because it also fused the consciousness and lingering resentment of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were even resurrected when Houtu attained enlightenment.

Furthermore, these resurrected Twelve Ancestral Witches also shared a portion of Houtu's Primordial Dao Fruit.

Each Ancestral Witch possesses approximately one-twelfth of this Primordial Dao Fruit.

Although it was only a part of it, it was almost a miracle, which greatly shocked even a saint.

After all, the twelve Ancestral Witches were already powerful enough back then, and now, they have gone even further. Each of them can be described as a half-saint or a half-primordial being.

If these twelve Ancestral Witches were to unleash the Great Array of Heavenly Gods and Demons and summon the true form of Pangu, how terrifying would that be?

Of course, some people think that this might be impossible.

Before the Twelve Ancestral Witches attained enlightenment, the Great Formation of the Divine Fiends of the Heavens was still effective, and the Pangu True Body formed by their combined power was the sum of their strength.

Now that Houtu has attained enlightenment, she has already used up this foundation. If the twelve ancestral witches were to reunite now, it would only form Houtu's complete Hunyuan Dao Fruit.

However, all the sages sensed that this was not a simple matter, and it was hard to guarantee that this conjecture would come true.

However, after Houtu attained enlightenment, the twelve Ancestral Witches who were resurrected did not return to the primordial land, but instead hid in the Netherworld.

Most of the sages were helpless in dealing with this, because Houtu was very difficult to deal with, except for Zhen Yuanzi.

After Houtu attained enlightenment, Zhen Yuanzi visited the Netherworld multiple times to discuss the Dao with her.

Besides Houtu's attainment of enlightenment, Styx is also worth mentioning. However, it is a pity that although Styx killed the incarnation of Zhunti on Mount Sumeru and attained a part of the "killing saint" Dao fruit.

However, to achieve complete perfection, proving one's Dao through killing is still insufficient. Similarly, the Styx River, under the protection of Houtu, cultivates in seclusion in the Netherworld, awaiting the attainment of Dao.

……

Zixiao Palace.

Since the end of the Great Tribulation and the conclusion of that discussion, only Hongyun and Dao Ancestor Hongjun remained.

However, there was complete silence in the Zixiao Palace.

Hongyun sat motionless on the futon below, even closing her eyes, as if she were lost in thought.

On the Dao Platform, the situation was almost the same for Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

And so, I don't know how much time passed.

Finally, Dao Ancestor Hongjun broke the silence and spoke, "Hongyun, have you thought it through?"

Hongyun opened her eyes.

Looking at Hongjun, Hongyun shook her head and said, "I don't believe you."

"Don't you believe me?"

Hongjun frowned and asked, "Why?"

"Do you know what level your cultivation would reach if you used your world to devour the primordial world?"

"Are you really not tempted at all?" Hongjun stared at Hongyun.

"Scented?"

Hongyun shook her head and said, "What you said is certainly tempting, but while my heart is moved, I cannot act on it. If I were to do it so foolishly, I'm afraid I would die a terrible death."

"Teacher, you are the Heavenly Dao of this primordial world. If I were to devour the primordial world, I would like to ask you, as the Heavenly Dao of this world, what would you do then?"

Hongjun looked at Hongyun, remained silent for a long time, and then said, "Do you really want to know?"

Hongyun nodded.

"It's absolutely necessary to know."

"But what if I deliberately don't tell you and force you to do it?"

After Hongjun finished speaking, a faint but terrifying aura emanated from his body; this was the power of the Heavenly Dao.

The red clouds enveloped it.

But Hongyun remained unperturbed by the heavenly might, and said leisurely, "Teacher, if you really wanted to force me like this, you should have done it ten thousand years ago."

"As for now..."

Hongyun smiled faintly.

This also made Hongjun Daozu's gaze become profound. He looked at Hongyun for a long time, and suddenly, the terrifying pressure was withdrawn by Hongjun.

"Although I don't really believe you can escape, I never thought I had to force you in this way. Otherwise, I would have done it ten thousand years ago, or even a hundred thousand or a million years ago."

Hongjun said.

Hongyun nodded and said, "That's why I'm willing to listen to what you have to say."

"Teacher, tell me, what exactly is the reason that forced you to want to abandon the primordial world?" Hongyun asked.

Hongjun sighed and said, "Don't laugh at me, but actually I'm just scared."

"Fear?"

"Yes, it's fear."

Hongjun said, "After I merged with the Dao, I became the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao became me. You can understand it as the Heavenly Dao, which originally had no thoughts, no feelings, and no fear, began to be afraid after I came into contact with its emotions."

"Why are you afraid?"

"Because of a formidable enemy, an incomparably terrifying enemy," Hongjun said.

"When Pangu separated the primordial world, he encountered numerous demons and gods who stood in his way. Do you know who the most powerful demon among them was?"

Hongyun shook her head.

"The Time Demon!"

Hongjun said, "The demon god who controls time! Hours!"

Upon hearing this, Hongyun's heart skipped a beat, and she asked, "Is there really such a demon god?"

The Time God, who controls time, is even more mysterious than the Space God, Yang Mei.

But now, in Hongjun's words, the concept of time was so terrifying that it made him want to abandon the prehistoric world and run away.

This is outrageous.

Hongjun smiled wryly and said, "He not only exists, but his strength is also almost on par with Pangu."

"Half-step into the Great Dao?" Hongyun was finally horrified when she heard this.

It seemed as if, in some mysterious way, I sensed a gaze upon me, sending chills down my spine.

"good."

Hongjun said, "Using it as a half-step into the Great Dao is the most appropriate way to describe it."

He said, "In fact, the Great Calamity of Creation can also be seen as a struggle between Pangu and time for the Great Dao."

"They are vying for the creation of the Great Dao! As for the other demon gods, they are merely pawns summoned by the time of day. Among them is a demon god who controls space, named Yang Mei."

"I have also met him before. He did not perish completely in that great calamity, but also fell into the primordial world, where he was reborn, cultivated anew, and attained enlightenment even earlier than me."

"When I discovered him, I had already fought him, and I lost badly in that battle."

Hongjun seemed to recall many things and said to Hongyun, "But I am also very curious and can't figure it out."
