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

Qin Ming was in such a hurry because he sensed that the red cloud was about to take form.

Unlike before.

Although he had been preaching to his disciples, he was not entirely ignorant of what was happening in the primordial world.

The divine eye of the Great Dao can perceive all things in the universe.

Qin Ming only needed one glance to see what had recently happened in the prehistoric world.

This was because Rahu dispatched his five demon lords to disrupt the three races.

This has led to the current chaotic state of the primordial world, where war rages on.

When Hongyun first took human form, he only had the cultivation level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

If one stays in the Fire Cloud Cave, there may be no problem.

However, Huoyun Cave is deeply entangled with the human realm, and the longer Hongyun stays, the more karmic debts he incurs in the human realm.

When the karmic consequences erupt, calamity will arrive, and if there is not enough merit to offset it, one can only pay with one's life.

Although Hongyun later perished, his primordial spirit was divided into the human race's Earth Emperor Shennong and the Virtuous Immortal Yun Xianzi.

But this was not the result Qin Xiang wanted.

As one's own disciple, one should naturally attain perfection. Even if one were to become the Earth Emperor of the human race, one would still need to possess a perfect body.

Only when one is perfectly flawless can one have the possibility of reaching the peak.

Therefore, he would not allow Hongyun to fall victim to the schemes and karma of others in the future.

Now that Hongyun has taken human form, if he severs his connection with Huoyun Cave, his original essence will be damaged, and he may fall from the realm of Da Luo Jin Xian.

Without the protection of the Fire Cloud Cave, the prehistoric world is now in extreme chaos, so Qin Ming had no choice but to personally guide Hongyun into the sect.

With Qin Ming's current cultivation level, coupled with the spatial laws that are showing signs of fusion, Qin Ming's spatial jumps are extremely fast.

In less than ten years, Qin Ming had already arrived at the Fire Cloud Cave.

Looking at the tribulation clouds forming above the Fire Cloud Cave, Qin Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had made it in time.

As bolts of lightning struck the red cloud's body, the red cloud remained unmoved, circulating its divine fire essence to release a sky full of divine fire, which in turn strengthened the laws of clouds. The fiery clouds enveloped the descending lightning, dissolving and refining it.

At the same time, the Law of Water was unleashed and merged with the Divine Fire. The two opposing laws perfectly harmonized at this moment.

The divine powers of water and fire were unleashed, annihilating the bolts of lightning.

Fifty years later, the calamity clouds receded.

The red clouds floating in the sky moved slowly.

The next moment, he appeared in the sky above Fire Cloud Cave as a kind-faced cultivator in a red Taoist robe, with a smiling face and a red eyebrow hanging down to his chest.

"I have finally taken human form. I can say that I have not let my teacher down."

After muttering to himself for a while, Hongyun looked down at the Fire Cloud Cave, his eyes flashing.

"It would be such a waste to give up such a top-notch cave dwelling."

"I really don't know why the teacher made me do this."

"Now is the time of great calamity. If I sever the connection with the cave now, wouldn't my essence be greatly damaged?"

"Having lost the protection of the cave dwelling and suffered damage to my very essence, how can I go to see my teacher?"

At this moment, Hongyun was extremely conflicted.

On the one hand, he was really reluctant to part with this top-notch cave dwelling.

It should be understood that wealth, companions, methods, and land—the importance of a top-tier cave dwelling to a cultivator is self-evident.

However, thinking of Qin Ming's immense kindness to him, who not only taught him top-level cultivation techniques but also bestowed upon him a supreme-grade innate spiritual treasure and a superior-grade innate spiritual treasure.

Afterwards, he devoted himself to preaching to himself. Under such circumstances, how could Hongyun let Qin Ming down?

After a long silence, Hongyun exhaled a breath of stale air: "Fine, since I promised my teacher, how could I go back on my word?"

"Besides, my teacher's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain. Now that I have taken human form, I should go to see my teacher immediately, no matter how difficult or dangerous it may be."

As he spoke, Hongyun condensed the laws of clouds, transforming them into a sharp blade, which he then slashed at himself.

"clang!"

Just as Hongyun was about to suffer a severe blow, a figure blocked Hongyun's path, tightly gripping the sharp blade formed by the Law of Clouds with two fingers.

After a long while, Hongyun, who had not endured any pain, opened her eyes in confusion. Upon closer inspection, she immediately saw Qin Ming and excitedly bowed, saying, "Disciple Hongyun greets Master."

"Hmph, after so much cultivation, you're still so reckless. You truly disappoint me."

Qin Ming looked at Hongyun with disappointment and frustration.

Hearing Qin Ming's words, Hong Yun remained silent.

Seeing this, Qin Ming shook his head helplessly: "I ordered you to sever your connection with Fire Cloud Cave."

"But you, on the contrary, use your own laws to damage your own Dao body."

"This might be acceptable for other cultivators, but you are a cloud in human form."

"Clouds are fickle; though they have form, they have no substance. If you rashly use the laws to harm yourself, it is very likely that your origin will be fragmented and your primordial spirit will be greatly damaged."

"I bestowed upon you the Crystal Lamp so that you might refine your character."

"But unexpectedly, you have never listened to my words. In all these years, you have only used the Crystal Heart Lamp a few times out of fear of death, haven't you?"

The more Qin Ming spoke, the angrier he became.

This red cloud is truly innocent in nature.

Little did they know that the primordial world was a naked jungle law, where the capable rose and the mediocre fell.

Good people never live long in the wild.

This Hongyun was born with a kind heart, always ready to help others and do good deeds throughout her life.

In the end, when he died, no one helped him. Only his friend Zhen Yuanzi grieved for him and fought against the demons who killed him.

Qin Ming couldn't stand Hong Yun's personality, which is why he left behind the Glazed Heart Lamp to temper Hong Yun's character.

While it didn't completely change Hongyun's saintly, hypocritical personality, it did make him more mature and less naive than before.

However, Qin Ming was extremely disappointed with his performance just now.

"I was wrong and have failed my teacher's expectations. Please punish me."

Upon hearing this, Hongyun trembled and knelt down to admit his mistake, fearing that Qin Ming would expel him from the sect for this.

Seeing this, Qin Ming sighed, "The prehistoric world is treacherous; one should not easily trust others."

"When faced with a problem, think it over carefully and find the most suitable, effortless, and advantageous solution."

"After this matter is resolved, you shall go to the Tower of Babel to hone your skills for ten thousand years. During these ten thousand years, you shall not leave the Tower of Babel."

As he spoke, Qin Ming formed a sword with his fingers, and the Purification Law swirled around his fingertips. He then placed the sword on the center of Hong Yun's brow and slowly severed the connection between Hong Yun and the Fire Cloud Cave.

As time passed, Hongyun's complexion turned from rosy to deathly pale. Even the Cloud Laws she had just condensed showed signs of collapsing. Only then did she completely sever her connection with the Fire Cloud Cave.

Seeing this, Qin Ming dared not delay and took out a large amount of Three Lights Divine Water and various spiritual wines.

"Circulate the cultivation technique, refine the spiritual wine, and combine it with the Three Lights Divine Water to restore the damaged essence."

As he spoke, Qin Ming poured the Three Lights Divine Water onto Hong Yun's head.

After drinking the Three Lights Divine Water, which contains the ultimate life force, and various spiritual wines that strengthen the body and nourish the vital energy, Hongyun's complexion gradually became rosy.

Three hundred years later, Hongyun fully recovered and stood up, bowing deeply to Qin Ming, who had been protecting him: "Disciple thanks Master."

"Alright, enter the Chaos Pearl. Inside, there is a spatial passage to the Three Immortal Islands of Chaos."

"Within the Three Immortal Islands of Chaos, there are several disciples whom I have taken in. After you get to know them, you will go to the Tower of Babel to temper your character for ten thousand years."

With that, Qin Ming put Hongyun into the Chaos Pearl.

After doing all this, Qin Ming looked at the Fire Cloud Cave, which had become an unclaimed cave and where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was slowly gathering, and a cold smile appeared on his face.

On his last visit, because his Great Dao Divine Eye had not yet advanced, Qin Ming knew nothing about the details of this place, even though he knew it would be the future residence of the Human Emperor.

But this time, after Qin Ming's Great Dao Divine Eye advanced, he realized that this place was a conspiracy set up by the Heavenly Dao.

It is because of this place that humanity has been unable to manifest itself in the primordial world for so long.
