Primordial Era: I rule the great sect and command all immortals.

"Ahem!"

Laozi coughed lightly. At this critical juncture, as the head of all saints and the senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect, it was naturally his turn to speak.

Normally, this senior brother would probably only be able to command Yuanshi Tianzun alone, but now everyone is very wise, and they are all obedient and attentive!

As the saying goes, "The nail that sticks out gets hammered down."

At this moment, how dangerous it is to help Hongjun Daozu gang up on Shenni, the king of ferocious beasts!

Naturally, it is Laozi, the senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect, who should set an example.

Laozi gave a wry smile. These people were all cunning and treacherous, none of them were easy to deal with.

It seems I have no choice but to give it my all today.

After thinking for a moment, Laozi said, "We are here by the decree of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun to besiege and kill the ferocious beast king Shenni! In this battle, you must all go all out and not underestimate the enemy, lest you miss the opportunity..."

This conversation lasted a full quarter of an hour. Meanwhile, Hongjun Daozu activated the "Zixiao Palace" and poured it into Shenni's stone hall. Various colorful divine lights continuously burst forth from the gaps in the stone hall.

The chaotic waves were shattered by the divine power of both, surging in all directions.

Meanwhile, all the sages and primordial beings listened to Laozi's instructions with serious expressions and complete agreement. Even the most unruly demon ancestor, Rahu, looked like a good student.

He nodded repeatedly at Lao Tzu's words, deeply agreeing with them.

Xinghe Zhenren almost burst out laughing. None of these saints and primordial beings are reliable. I wonder what Hongjun Daozu is feeling right now.

"Finally, to ensure everything goes smoothly, the nine of us will use the 'Nine Palaces Immortal Array of the Sun and Moon' to surround Shen Ni and cooperate with our teacher to subdue this demon!"

Lao Tzu continued.

"Hmm! Brother Taishang, that's excellent! However, I've never cultivated this formation before, so I don't know its intricacies. Could you explain it to me in detail?"

Suddenly, Demon Ancestor Rahu spoke up, asking, "If we don't work together, it could jeopardize the important matter. And if Shenni escapes, what a terrible crime that would be!"

"Yes! Fellow Daoist Luo Hou is quite right!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable was the first to respond, nodding in deep agreement.

The others nodded in agreement.

The Buddha Mother Cundi further exclaimed, "You must practice until you are completely proficient! You must ensure that nothing goes wrong!"

"Ugh!"

Lao Tzu shook his head slightly. How could he not know what the others were thinking?

Even so, he was unwilling to take action!

Unfortunately, circumstances are beyond our control!

Hongjun Daozu, their teacher, was the strongest being in the prehistoric world. He had the power to subdue them, and they had no choice but to submit!

Playing a little trick is fine, but if they really mess up Hongjun Daozu's important matter, what will happen if the Daozu punishes them afterwards?

As the one who naturally took the lead in arranging this matter, he bears the greatest responsibility, so he naturally cannot listen to the words of Demon Ancestor Rahu and Cundi Buddha Mother.

"This is a matter of utmost importance, and the situation is urgent! Everyone must go into battle now!"

With a flick of his finger, Lao Tzu divided the light into eight strands of golden light, which shot towards the assembled Primordial Beings and Sages.

Everyone knew this was a method of communication, and one by one they received the golden light. With a sweep of their divine senses, they immediately grasped the "Nine Palaces Immortal Array of the Sun and Moon Revolving".

For an omniscient and omnipotent master of the Hunyuan level, learning this array formation would naturally take no time; they would learn it at a glance and master it with a single practice—it's extremely simple.

"Alright! Everyone, let's get started!"

Upon seeing this, Laozi gave an order and flew out first.

This senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect was extremely cautious. With the "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda" above his head, the "Taiji Diagram" under his feet, and the "Eight Scenery Palaces" protecting his body, he held a crutch in his hand and charged into the chaotic battlefield where battles were constantly taking place.

With Laozi taking the lead, the other sages naturally dared not be negligent. They each released their various magical treasures and, together with Laozi, set up the "Nine Palaces Revolving Sun and Moon Immortal Array" in the form of the Nine Palaces.

Once this formation was activated, it covered billions of miles, including the "Purple Cloud Palace" and the stone hall, all of which were sealed in the center.

The sun and moon alternate, and time flies.

Once the formation was complete, the nine Hunyuan each occupied a key point of the formation. Everyone simultaneously activated their magical powers and divine abilities, and instantly, a vast land was formed within a range of trillions of miles.

A bright sun and a bright moon appear alternately in the sky above the earth, night and day alternate, and the power of time flows ceaselessly across the vast land.

Boundless primordial energy emerged in the form of various living beings, engaging in a fierce battle with the army of ferocious beasts formed from the bloodthirsty energy within the stone hall.

As for these saints and primordial beings, none of them took the initiative to show themselves and help Hongjun Daozu break into the stone hall and fight against the ferocious beast king Shenni inside.

Gradually, the sages and Hunyuan joined forces to suppress the bloodthirsty energy little by little, helping Hongjun Daozu solve some troubles.

"Suppress them!"

At that moment, a furious roar of Shen Ni echoed across the vast land. Countless rays of light flashed, and the fierce aura formed endless light that blasted out, actually repelling the combined power of the surging crowd.

"Shennie is incredibly strong!"

Seeing Shen Ni's frantic counterattack, Xinghe Zhenren and his group looked at each other in bewilderment. Suddenly, someone moved and took the lead in retreating, pretending to be outmatched and relaxing their suppression of Shen Ni.

Everyone shares the same mindset; once someone quits, everyone else remains the same.

Xinghe Zhenren and Tongtian Jiaozhu had already traversed countless spaces and retreated to a suitable position. After observing for a while, they saw that the "Sun and Moon Revolving Nine Palaces Immortal Array" was still stable, which put them at ease.

As long as the great formation doesn't collapse, they can continue to hold on here. Otherwise, Xinghe Zhenren and Tongtian Jiaozhu wouldn't care about Hongjun Daozu's life or death; they would have already fled.

At this moment, the Purple Cloud Palace paused, and the voice of Dao Ancestor Hongjun resounded: "Do not panic! I will hold off Shenni. You all must attack with all your might, shatter the stone hall, break in, and suppress the source of his power!"

"Forehead……"

After hearing Hongjun Daozu's words, everyone fell silent. They seemed not to have heard Hongjun Daozu's voice and continued to bombard the outer perimeter with the "Sun and Moon Revolving Nine Palaces Immortal Array" to clear away the blood evil energy.

As for what Hongjun Daozu said?

Ha ha……

Who the hell listens to you?!

Enter the stone hall to suppress the rebellious gods?

Isn't this making them fight to the death against God?

No one was a fool. After a brief exchange of blows, they immediately realized that Shen Ni had not suffered any damage at all. Even if his power was not perfect, it was still at its peak, at least enough to manifest the combat power of the eighth level of the Hunyuan Wuji Dalu Golden Immortal!

Such a force, are they to be sent in to suppress it?

Isn't that just asking for death?

Even the most reclusive figures like Lao Tzu and Amitabha Buddha wouldn't stand for it!

Suppressing Shenni ultimately eliminated a major enemy for Dao Ancestor Hongjun, but it brought them no benefit whatsoever. Trying to make them work for free would be pointless.

These sages are no longer from the time of the Investiture of the Gods. Now they are fully grown and confident that if they unite, even the Dao Ancestor Hongjun might not dare to turn against them!

With such confidence, who would still listen to Hongjun Daozu?

I'll listen to your suggestions on good things, but if it harms your own interests, forget about it completely!

"Boom!"

The great battle continued, with only Hongjun Daozu and Shenni locked in fierce combat, while the others remained on the periphery, occasionally unleashing a streak of light. In short, everyone was just slacking off and killing time.

"well……"

A soft sigh seemed to emanate from within the "Purple Cloud Palace," indicating that Dao Ancestor Hongjun was utterly disappointed in his six disciples.

As for the performances of Xinghe Zhenren, Mozu Luohou, and Houtu Niangniang, he had already anticipated them and was not surprised.

"Hahaha! Hongjun, it seems the situation you desired hasn't materialized!"

Shen Ni's arrogant laughter once again echoed from within the stone hall.

Upon hearing this voice, Master Xinghe couldn't help but frown. "Did you, Shen Ni, go crazy from being locked up?"

We've already gone easy on you, so you should just honestly fight against Hongjun Daozu.

Now you're laughing at me? Are you mocking Hongjun Daozu?

Didn't you make fun of us too?

Do you fucking want to live anymore?

As Xinghe Zhenren looked around, he saw that all the Hunyuan Wuji Jiluo Golden Immortals and Hunyuan Wuji Saints had extremely ugly expressions. There were some things that he couldn't say carelessly!

Everyone here is a respectable person. If you say something you shouldn't, you're courting death.

"Everyone! Help me subdue this wicked beast! I will begin my fourth lecture, explaining the Great Dao of the Nine Heavens of Primordial Chaos! And I promise that in the next great calamity, all sages and Primordial Chaos beings will be able to freely enter and leave the Primordial World!"

Hongjun Daozu transmitted his voice again, but this time it was not a public address, but a secret transmission, excluding Shenni.

"Hmm? This offer seems pretty good!"

Master Xinghe's heart stirred, and he immediately had the idea of ​​agreeing.

He looked at the Tongtian Sect Leader, who understood Xinghe Zhenren's meaning and nodded slightly, seemingly agreeing with the condition.

On the other side, Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun had also quickly exchanged their attitudes.

Amitabha Buddha and Cundi Buddha Mother also reached a consensus, believing that the conditions were good.

The other few Hunyuan and Sages went their own way, waiting for the attitudes of the Jie Sect, the Human Chan Alliance, and the six great masters of Buddhism.

Only if all three parties agree to take action will they sideline and join in.

If these three parties disagree, their choice becomes worthless and irrelevant to the overall situation.

Amitabha Buddha transmitted his voice to Laozi and Tongtian Jiaozhu respectively, and the three parties had a series of conversations, and finally everyone reached an agreement.

Then, Laozi, Amitabha, and Tongtian Jiaozhu respectively sent messages to Demon Ancestor Rahu, Houtu Niangniang, and Nuwa Niangniang, informing them of their plans.

Before long, the nine masters reached an agreement to help Hongjun Daozu.

"Dao Ancestor, there's one condition: we must go all out! And regardless of whether you can subdue Shen Ni, you must agree to the above conditions!"

At this moment, Xinghe Zhenren suddenly transmitted his voice to Hongjun Daozu.

This time, Xinghe Zhenren did not hide it from the other saints and primordial beings; everyone heard it clearly.

One by one, the saints and primordial beings couldn't help but secretly admire the cunning of the Star River True Man. No wonder he had risen the fastest in all these years of development in the prehistoric world!

"Can!"

After a long while, the response from Hongjun Daozu arrived.

Clearly, this Daoist patriarch was not very happy.

He was unhappy, but everyone else was happy!

With the guarantee of Hongjun Daozu, the nine great masters—Taishang Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Xinghe Zhenren, Nuwa Niangniang, Amitabha Buddha, Zhunti Buddha Mother, Demon Ancestor Rahu, and Houtu Niangniang—were as if they had been given an stimulant. With a series of thunderous roars, they unleashed their great supernatural powers, supreme immortal techniques, demonic light, holy light, witchcraft, and all kinds of attacks!

"Bang!"

The stone palace of the ferocious beast king, Shen Ni, was shattered in half!

After the stone palace was destroyed, the nine supreme beings discovered that within it, in this ancient world, the sky was mysterious, the earth was heavy, and countless powers were erupting and undergoing transformation.

It seems that Shenni is preparing something!

"What happened?"

The king of ferocious beasts had a massive body, like a galaxy, and its enormous eyes, comparable to the sun and moon, still held a look of bewilderment.

Why?

Why did these people suddenly exert their strength and truly help Hongjun Daozu attack them?

Is this insane?

"You jerk! You're so cheeky!"

Seeing Shen Ni's bewildered expression, Xinghe Zhenren sneered. "You ignorant fool, you're safe now, yet you still dare to provoke everyone."

If I don't hit you, who will I hit!

One after another, supreme divine powers bombarded him relentlessly!

The words of a sage are golden and precious, and naturally they cannot be false!

Having promised to go all out against Hongjun Daozu, there was no way he could hold back!

No one can go back on their word!

Since the Nine Supreme Beings are like this, then Dao Ancestor Hongjun naturally cannot go back on his word. If Dao Ancestor Hongjun breaks his promise, it will be almost impossible for him to merge with the Heavenly Dao!

Even if the nine supreme beings don't turn against him on the spot, they won't let him subdue the Heavenly Dao smoothly!

The battle was unprecedentedly fierce!

In just a short while, Shen Ni was beaten and covered in wounds. His huge body began to shrink and become smaller, turning into a normal human form, and he dodged repeatedly.

"Hahaha! Shenni, today you are doomed!"

Inside the Purple Cloud Palace, the voice of Dao Ancestor Hongjun carried a hint of joy.

"You want to kill me? You're too naive! The Gate of Eternity is eternally indestructible!"

Shen Ni's expression changed drastically. He roared and his fingers rapidly formed hand seals.

"Boom!"

The half-ruined stone palace was completely destroyed, and the ancient world was also crumbling. Suddenly, a huge portal rose slowly from the depths of the earth, shattering everything!

This is Shen Ni's trump card!

His ultimate weapon is at the level of a Chaos Treasure!

This is one of the very few primordial treasures besides Pangu!

As soon as the "Gate of Eternity" flew out, boundless light erupted from within the gate, along with an endless aura of absolute killing intent, countless precious lights flashed, and a vast amount of malevolent energy swept out!

"A supreme treasure of chaos!"

Almost in unison, everyone gasped in surprise.

Faced with such a treasure, everyone's eyes turned red. At this moment, there was no need for Hongjun Daozu to say anything more. Who wouldn't want such a treasure?

Even sages have desires, but there are very few things they can covet. This primordial treasure that has appeared is precisely what they value most! (End of Chapter)
