Houtu is infatuated with me, so I made her lean against the wall.

As a bell that shook the heavens and earth rang out, space and time within a radius of millions of miles centered on Houtu were frozen.

"What happened?"

"Damn it, what kind of magical treasure is this? How can it possess such immense power?"

"The Beginningless Bell is Fellow Daoist Jingshi's personal spiritual treasure. How did it end up in the hands of this female cultivator? Could it be that she is Fellow Daoist Jingshi's Daoist partner?"

Yang Mei sensed the frozen space-time around her, and a look of confusion appeared on her face.

He had discussed Dao with Qin Ming several times, so he naturally knew some of Qin Ming's circumstances.

Moreover, when Qin Ming was born, he used this spiritual treasure. At first, they all thought that Qin Ming used the Chaos Bell.

Only later did they learn that this bell was not the Chaos Bell, but another supreme treasure similar to the Chaos Bell.

However, this priceless treasure has now appeared in the hands of other cultivators.

There are only two possibilities.

Alternatively, Houtu could kill Qin Ming and obtain the treasure in Qin Ming's possession.

However, judging from Houtu's combat strength, although it is not bad, it is comparable to the mid-stage of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

Qin Ming was no ordinary man either. At the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, he was able to defeat the early stage of the Primordial Chaos realm, and he wielded the God-Slaying Spear, a peerless treasure of the Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, it is clear that even if Houtu's cultivation level were a level higher, she would still be no match for Qin Ming.

That leaves only one possibility.

Houtu is Qin Ming's Daoist partner, and only this possibility could lead Qin Ming to take out his most precious personal treasure to protect Houtu.

On the other side, the instant the Boundless Bell rang, Houtu sensed that the water and fire laws surrounding her had been weakened to the extreme.

Taking this opportunity, Houtu activated her magic, and the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler burst forth with a dazzling divine light.

With a single foot of pressure, the divine fire dissipated, and the solid ice cracked.

In an instant, Houtu was freed from her confinement.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Five Elements Daoist and the others were frozen by the Wushi Bell, Houtu snorted coldly and then fled towards the bottom of Buzhou Mountain like lightning.

It's not that Houtu is benevolent.

She was seriously injured because she had been besieged by the Five Elements Taoist and others.

Adding to this, one of the two cultivators hidden in the void is currently surrounded by powerful spatial laws and is about to break free of his restraints. It would be unwise for him to risk being surrounded and attacked again when he is not sure if he is friend or foe by forcibly killing the Five Elements Daoist.

Therefore, Houtu chose to retreat to the bottom of Buzhou Mountain, returning to the place where the Twelve Ancestral Witches were born. While refining the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc in seclusion, she could also reorganize the laws of reincarnation to see if she could comprehend the secrets of the Six Paths and perfect the prehistoric world for her father god.

Not long after Houtu disappeared underground, Yang Mei broke free of her restraints. Looking in the direction Houtu had disappeared, Yang Mei shook her head with a wry smile.

"If I had known earlier that you had a close relationship with Fellow Daoist Jingshi, how could I have remained a bystander?"

He was on good terms with Qin Ming. If Qin Ming found out one day that he had stood by and watched Qin Ming fall into danger, Qin Ming would definitely be angry.

"Fellow Daoist Yang Mei, what's going on?"

"Has Fellow Daoist Jingshi arrived?"

Just then, Hongjun and Qiankun Daoren arrived at the scene. Looking at the frozen space and time around them, they asked in bewilderment.

"No!"

"Previously..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mei shook her head and then slowly recounted what had just happened.

Upon hearing Yang Mei's account, Qiankun Daoist didn't seem to notice anything, but Hongjun frowned deeply.

"The Ancestral Witch Houtu?"

"How is that possible?"

Previously, he had cooperated with the Heavenly Dao and learned a lot about the future of the prehistoric world and the backgrounds of some cultivators with profound blessings.

All of this is for the purpose of harvesting the fortune of those with abundant blessings in the primordial world, so as to help them achieve enlightenment more smoothly.

According to information from the Heavenly Dao, this Ancestral Witch should have had her primordial spirit annihilated by the innate evil energy at the bottom of Buzhou Mountain, leaving only her true spirit.

According to Yang Mei's account, Houtu not only had access to the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, but was also actively recognized as a master by that Reincarnation Treasure.

What's going on?

Moreover, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, who were supposed to take human form after the conflict between the Dao and the Demon, have taken human form ahead of schedule.

Will this trigger more chain reactions?

"This Five Elements Daoist has offended Fellow Daoist Jing Shi's partner this time. There's going to be a good show to watch later."

"Let's go. Now that this matter is settled, I must return to my cave and begin my seclusion."

Yang Mei glanced mockingly at the Five Elements Daoist who had escaped from his predicament in the distance, his expression gloomy. A cold smile appeared on his face. After bidding farewell to Hongjun and the others, Yang Mei used his spatial magic to speed towards Beiman.

Seeing this, Hongjun and the others did not say anything more, and after parting ways, they flew towards their respective caves.

This battle over the magical treasures ended when the two treasures recognized each other as their owners.

The Three Immortal Islands of Chaos, the Palace of the Immortal Venerable, and the Hall of the Immortal King.

Qin Ming sat solemnly on the Immortal King's throne, his right hand raised to the sky towards the sun, and his left hand hanging down to the ground towards the shadows. Vast auras emanated from Qin Ming and spread outwards.

Within the Chaos Lotus Platform, the originally green roots have now turned into liquid and are slowly merging into the fifteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus.

Time passed gradually.

Hundreds of years, thousands of years, tens of thousands of years.

The moment the azure roots formed by the God-Slaying Spear returned to their origin completely merged with the fifteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus, the fifteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus suddenly burst out from the Chaos Lotus Nurturing Platform, and then directly rushed out of the Immortal Venerable Palace and the Three Immortal Islands of Chaos, hovering above the East Sea.

The divine light of purification spread outwards from the white lotus of purification.

Streams of innate spiritual energy and the chaotic spiritual energy within the Three Immortal Islands of Chaos transformed into a tide of spiritual energy, continuously surging into the Pure World White Lotus.

Meanwhile, the lotus leaves on the Pure White Lotus slowly grew.

From the original fifteenth grade, in the blink of an eye, the sixteenth grade grew out.

Then, as if triggering a chain reaction, the lotus leaves continued to bloom.

The Pure White Lotus's true form has completely transformed into a colossal lotus that blots out the sky.

The East China Sea was the first to be alarmed.

As the Pure White Lotus transformed itself, divine light of purification swept across the entire East Sea.

The beings cleansed by the divine light of purification felt incredibly refreshed, and some cultivators even used it to transform into human form and break through their current bottlenecks.

This scene filled the First Emperor with immense joy.

Inside the Immortal Palace, as the Pure World White Lotus transformed itself, Qin Ming also sensed an unprecedented hunger.

This feeling made Qin Ming extremely uncomfortable. Without thinking, he focused all his energy on circulating the Nine Revolutions Undying Heavenly Scripture, violently absorbing the chaotic spiritual energy within the Three Immortal Islands of Chaos.

On the other hand, he took out a large amount of innate spiritual fruits and innate spiritual wine and kept stuffing them into his mouth.

Even so, Qin Ming was still not satisfied. He opened the Chaos Pearl and drew in the chaotic spiritual energy and the Three Lights Divine Water to irrigate himself.

Thus, Qin Ming managed to suppress the hunger this time.

In the sky, the original fifteen-grade Pure White Lotus has now transformed into a twenty-third grade.

Its innate divine restrictions have also increased to 48 levels, just one step away from being promoted to an innate supreme treasure.

As chaotic spiritual energy and innate spiritual energy surged in, the Pure World White Lotus frantically swayed its roots and leaves, absorbing a massive amount of spiritual energy into its body.

After an unknown amount of time, as the tide of spiritual energy gradually dissipated, the Pure World White Lotus suddenly trembled.

The final innate divine restriction was formed, and the twenty-fourth chrysanthemum blossomed.

The Twenty-Four Pure White Lotus unleashed a burst of dazzling divine power.

At the same time, the entire primordial world trembled once again, with countless lotus shadows sweeping across every corner.

The resentment that had filled the air due to the war between the three races was completely purified by this purifying divine light.

At the foot of Buzhou Mountain, the Boundless Purification Array set up by Qin Ming erupted with boundless divine light the instant the Purification White Lotus ascended, dissolving all the innate evil energy along its path.
