Primordial Era: Refusing Hongjun's path to sainthood, I attained the Dao of Hunyuan.

Chapter 20 Journey to the West

In the Ziwei Palace, Ziwei and Fuxi were studying the Zhou Tian Star Array.

Meanwhile, after their defeat in the battle against Ziwei, Dijun and Taiyi led their Star Gods back to the Sun Star.

Di Jun's face was somewhat pale as he sat in the Sun Palace. Seeing this, Tai Yi quickly asked with concern, "Brother, how are you?"

Di Jun shook his head and said, "You acted in time, so the injury isn't too serious. You'll recover after a thousand years of recuperation."

"I miscalculated this time. I thought I was no less capable than him in terms of strength, but I never expected him to have such methods."

Di Jun closed his eyes, and the scene from before seemed to reappear before his eyes.

"What an impressive formation!"

Di Jun opened his eyes, sighed, and then burst into laughter.

Taiyi hurriedly asked, "Why are you laughing, elder brother?"

Di Jun said, "I laugh at Ziwei for digging his own grave; he will surely be killed by me!"

Di Jun's heart stirred, and suddenly, two beams of light flew out from his body, transforming into a book and a picture.

The two innate spiritual treasures were the Hetu and Luoshu that accompanied him.

Di Jun pointed at the two spiritual treasures and activated them. Suddenly, the book and the diagram transformed into a great formation.

Taiyi recognized that this great formation was called the Heluo Great Formation, which was an inherent formation of these two spiritual treasures.

But it was different from what Ziwei had guessed.

The grand formation contained within the Hetu and Luoshu is not the Zhou Tian Star Array, but rather the Heluo Grand Array.

"The great formation used by Ziwei is very mysterious. It connects the stars through its own numerous acupoints, draws on the power of the stars, and finally gathers them into a formation."

Di Jun said, "It's fortunate that we have also gathered some of the star gods. Otherwise, he would have been able to gather all the star gods of the 365 main stars and 14,800 secondary stars under his command."

"I'm afraid he'll be able to set up that truly magnificent formation, completely invincible, and crush everything with overwhelming force."

"Even with your Chaos Bell, none of us brothers will escape unscathed!"

Upon hearing this, Taiyi recalled the scene from before and nodded, saying, "So what should we do now?"

"I have an idea."

Di Jun said.

"Take out your Chaos Bell."

Taiyi quickly took out the Chaos Bell and handed it to Dijun.

Di Jun examined the Chaos Bell from all angles and laughed, "After the creation of heaven and earth, the starry sky was still unstable, so the Chaos Bell was used to suppress it."

"And Taiyi, your good fortune is so great that you are born with this Chaos Bell."

"Although Ziwei is somewhat intelligent, it opens up acupoints within itself, corresponds with the stars in the heavens, and then draws upon the power of the stars to empower itself and gather great momentum."

"But how can he compare to the Chaos Bell? The Chaos Bell is the true treasure that suppresses billions of stars!"

Di Jun's eyes gleamed brightly as he said, "Taiyi, that grand formation is not exclusive to Ziwei. We can also deduce a similar grand formation and find a way to inscribe it on your bell."

"Originally, it would be difficult for you to unleash the power of this bell, but now with the method provided by Ziwei, you may be able to refine it further. In fact, if we can subdue all the star gods of the 365 main stars and 14,800 secondary stars and have them use the essence of their respective stars to help you, you may be able to completely refine this bell."

"And when that time comes, with both the grand array that gathers the entire starry sky and this innate treasure, what ambitions can't we, brothers, achieve?"

These words swayed even Taiyi, who asked, "Can it really work?"

Taiyi has always been obsessed with completely refining the Chaos Bell.

However, although the Chaos Bell was his innate treasure, it was also one of the three great treasures created at the beginning of time. For him, completely refining it would be extremely difficult.

He could only gradually erode the restrictions on the Chaos Bell bit by bit, and so far, he hadn't even refined half of the Chaos Bell.

Now that he knows there is a way to help him completely refine the Chaos Bell, Taiyi cannot help but be tempted.

"Logically speaking, it is possible," Di Jun said.

"That's settled then."

Upon hearing this, Taiyi excitedly asked, "When do we begin the simulation?"

Di Jun handed the Chaos Bell back to Taiyi, saying irritably, "Of course, it'll be after I'm healed."

With that, he blasted Taiyi out of the Sun Palace and then went into seclusion to recuperate.

Taiyi was driven out of the palace. Although he was anxious, he had no choice but to protect Dijun outside the palace.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of years have passed.

Di Jun's injuries had long since healed, and he had begun studying the Zhou Tian Star Array.

However, this is probably no longer the original Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation, but has gradually been led astray by Zi Wei.

Ziwei's Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array initially centered on himself, gathering the power of the starry sky into himself.

However, Ziwei had already discovered his shortcomings; the power of the starry sky was too great for his physical body to fully bear.

Therefore, Ziwei also created her own array diagram called the Zhou Tian Star Chart, intending to use it to support the Zhou Tian Star Array and unleash its greater power.

Unintentionally, Ziwei also received help from Fuxi to deduce the formation.

Once he emerges from seclusion, the power of the Zhou Tian Star Array will surely reach a new level.

On the other hand, Di Jun's Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array was just beginning to be created, but Di Jun had a good foundation.

They planned to use the Chaos Bell, a supreme innate treasure, to inscribe a grand formation on its body. By combining the power of the celestial bodies with the Chaos Bell, they could unleash even greater power.

It can be said that both sides are now racking their brains to deduce the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation.

The starry sky remained peaceful for thousands of years, without any further conflict.

Meanwhile, on the vast and desolate land, in the Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain, Fuxi entered the trap and helped him deduce the great formation.

At this moment, Xuanhuang passed away, and the consciousness that had taken over Ziwei also withdrew.

Xuanhuang bid farewell to Zhenyuanzi and Hongyun, left Wanshou Mountain, and continued westward.

Of the five elements, he has already obtained the Earth element origin, while his own element is Wood element. However, there are still three other elements that he has not yet obtained.

The origin of Geng metal lies in the West.

To be precise, it is Zhunti, one of the two Western duo, whose true form is the Bodhi tree, which is the innate metal spiritual root.

Zhunti is also the one who fared the best among the five elemental spiritual roots, and is one of the future Six Sages of the Heavenly Dao.

Xuanhuang traveled westward for two reasons: first, to obtain the innate Geng metal source, so as to perfect his five-colored divine light.

However, I also want to discuss the Dao with these two.

Although these two have a bad reputation, they are not to be underestimated.

After all, no matter what, the two of them are future saints, and in terms of wisdom and everything else, they are the most outstanding beings in the primordial world.

Xuanhuang didn't have any intention of plotting against the two of them; he simply believed that learning from others could be beneficial.

For his Xuanhuang Dao to reach its full potential, it must absorb the nourishment of various Daos and be nurtured by countless Daos.

And so, after an unknown amount of time, Xuanhuang finally entered the territory of the western land.

The western land was indeed desolate. In the last great eon, the struggle between the Dao and the Demonic caused severe damage to this land.

The spiritual roots within the earth collapsed, causing the spiritual energy to dissipate and turning it into a barren land.

It withered away from then on.

At least along the way, Xuanhuang saw very few rare and precious natural treasures, and even living beings were scarce.

Shaking his head, Xuanhuang began to understand the two Westerners somewhat; no wonder Jieyin always looked so distressed.

No wonder Zhunti always liked to go to the East to freeload.

Anyone would be frowning and sighing in that situation!

At the same time, Xuanhuang also felt a bit of admiration for Jieyin and Zhunti. These two had devoted themselves to the West, even sacrificing their own dignity for it, which was truly a testament to their great perseverance.

As Xuanhuang walked across the desolate land, he couldn't help but have some unique insights.

Such barren land reflects more than just a lack of resources and a thinning of spiritual energy.

Even the Dao of heaven and earth is different from that of the Eastern land.
