Primordial Era: Starting by overwhelming the Sages, Hongjun was stunned!

Kunlun Mountain, Yuxu Palace.

In the quiet room, the Primordial Celestial Venerable suddenly opened his eyes!

His pupils blazed with blood-red light, his holy body trembled violently, and he actually fell off the cloud bed.

"puff!!!"

He coughed up a mouthful of golden blood, within which shattered Dao patterns were faintly visible.

Just a moment ago.

He sensed it.

Jieyin perished, Laozi was killed, and Zhunti... also died.

Three saints were killed by the same person on the same day!

"Kong Xuan...Kong Xuan!!!"

Yuanshi roared in a low, hoarse voice, filled with deep-seated hatred, yet also carrying a hint of... barely perceptible fear.

He hated Kong Xuan for slaughtering his fellow disciples, hated him for severing the foundation of the Chan Sect, and hated him for disrupting the Investiture of the Gods.

But he was also afraid.

They feared Kong Xuan's terrifying, mind-blowing strength, and the immense power of the Great Dao that could easily obliterate even a saint.

What I fear even more is... that I might be next.

"Teacher... why hasn't the teacher shown up yet?"

Yuanshi looked up at the sky, his eyes bloodshot.

When Jieyin died, he thought that Daozu would take action.

When Lao Tzu died, he believed that the Dao Ancestor would surely descend.

But even after Zhunti died... Daozu was still nowhere to be found!

What does this mean?

acquiescence?

Or... even the Dao Ancestor is wary of Kong Xuan and unwilling to confront him directly at this moment?

Yuanshi's mind was in turmoil, his sacred heart was in violent turmoil, and the Jade Purity Immortal Light around his body flickered erratically, showing signs of going astray and falling into demonic possession.

Just now.

"The Beginning".

A calm voice came from outside the quiet room.

The sound wasn't loud, but it resounded like thunder in Yuanshi's ears.

He trembled violently and turned his head sharply to look at the stone door of the quiet room.

The stone gate opened silently.

A figure in a black robe stood outside the door with his hands behind his back.

With his black hair flowing freely and his eyes deep and unfathomable, he exuded no aura whatsoever, yet the restrictions of the entire Jade Void Palace groaned and crumbled on their own.

Kong Xuan.

he came.

"You...you actually dared to come to Kunlun?!"

Yuan Shi forced himself to stand up, his eyes flashing with even more bloodlust, yet he could not hide the trace of panic in them.

Kong Xuan slowly stepped into the quiet room.

Their steps were leisurely, as if they were walking into their own backyard.

"Why wouldn't you dare?"

His voice was flat:

"Jieyin is dead, Laozi is dead, and Zhunti is dead too."

"One more of you...it doesn't make a difference."

As soon as he finished speaking, the temperature in the quiet room plummeted.

Yuanshi's pupils contracted sharply, and he instinctively tried to summon the Pangu Banner.

But as soon as the thought arose, he felt an invisible, powerful force envelop him, binding him tightly!

Even holy power... cannot be activated!

"you......"

Yuan Shi was horrified and his expression changed.

He knew Kong Xuanqiang, but he never expected him to be this strong!

He was, after all, a fifth-level Heavenly Saint of the Heavenly Dao, in charge of the Jade Purity Great Dao, and protected by the Pangu Banner, a supreme treasure from the beginning of creation.

But at this moment, he can't even summon his magic weapon?

"There's no need to struggle anymore."

Kong Xuan spoke calmly:

"Even in your prime, you were no match for me."

"Now that the Holy Heart is damaged and the Foundation of the Way is shaken, there is no possibility of anything more."

He paused, his gaze icy.

"I have come today for only one thing."

"I'll send you... to your death."

The last two words fell, filled with chilling killing intent!

Yuan Shi trembled, and despair finally appeared in his eyes.

He knew that Kong Xuan was serious.

He really dares to kill himself!

"Kong Xuan! Don't be so smug!"

Yuanshi roared furiously, making his final struggle:

"The Dao Ancestor has merged with the Dao, and the Heavenly Dao is supreme! Today you slaughtered a sage and disrupted the primordial world, you will surely suffer the backlash of the Heavenly Dao!"

"At that time, no matter how strong you are, you will not escape annihilation!"

Kong Xuan smiled upon hearing this.

The laughter carried an undisguised mockery:

"A backlash from Heaven?"

"Yuanshi, you've cultivated the Dao for so many years, don't you understand yet?"

"The so-called Way of Heaven is nothing more than one of the rules governing the evolution of the Great Way."

"What I cultivate is the origin of the Great Dao."

Why should I fear it?

He paused, his gaze suddenly turning cold:

"As for the Dao Ancestor... if he really wanted to stop me, he should have come long ago."

"Since you're not coming, that means..."

Kong Xuan slowly raised his right hand, his five fingers spread wide:

"You deserve to die too."

Before he finished speaking, his right hand had already clenched into a fist.

hum!

The aura of the Great Dao permeated the quiet room.

Yuan Shi felt that time and space around him had completely frozen, and even his thoughts had stopped.

He watched helplessly as his sacred body, starting from his fingertips, turned to ashes inch by inch.

Unable to resist, unable to struggle, even... unable to think.

Only endless fear and despair overwhelmed my mind like a tidal wave.

"No......"

Before his last shred of consciousness dissipated, endless regret flashed in Yuanshi's eyes.

If I had known this would happen... I shouldn't have schemed against Kong Xuan in the first place.

If I had known this would happen... I shouldn't have become an enemy of the Jie Sect.

If only I had known...

Unfortunately, I didn't know that sooner.

It's all...too late.

"puff."

With a soft sound, the sacred body of Yuanshi Tianzun completely dissipated.

Only a wisp of pure immortal energy remained on the spot, along with... the shattered phantom of the Pangu Banner.

The leader of the Chan Sect, the Heavenly Sage Yuanshi... has fallen!

Kong Xuan slowly withdrew his hand, his expression calm and undisturbed.

It was as if I had only done a trivial little thing.

He turned and walked out of the quiet room.

Inside the Jade Void Palace, all was deathly silent.

All the disciples had already sensed the terrifying shockwave of the saint's fall, and at this moment they all collapsed to the ground, their faces ashen.

The figure of the Tongtian Sect Leader emerged from the void and landed beside Kong Xuan.

He stared at the lingering wisp of ethereal jade energy in the quiet room, his expression complex, and remained silent for a long time.

"Master."

Kong Xuan spoke, his voice calm:

"The cause and effect have been resolved."

Tongtian slowly turned his head and looked at his disciple.

He wore a black robe and had black hair. His eyes were deep and his aura of the Great Dao was restrained, yet it still made people's hearts tremble.

Peak of the Ninth Heaven of the Primordial Great Luo Realm...

Easily wiped out the Four Saints...

Such strength and such methods are probably beyond even the Dao Ancestor Hongjun of yesteryear.

"What are your plans next?"

Tongtian asked in a deep voice.

Kong Xuan gazed up at the heavens, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

"It's time to go and see the Dao Ancestor."

"There are some things... that need to be clarified."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step and disappeared into the Kunlun Mountains.

Tongtian remained silent for a long time, then sighed softly and left.

All that remained was the desolate silence of the mountains, and... the utter collapse of the Xuanmen order.
