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

"Damn it, the disciples of the Pure World Daoist! Their fortunes are linked to the Pure World Daoist, so it's one thing to be unable to obtain their fortunes, but why can't we even harvest Nuwa's fortunes?"

Hongjun's expression was ashen.

He had long known that Qin Ming possessed many treasures. Not to mention anything else, the Chaos Heart Refining Array that he set up above the East Sea during that sermon had a prime element that was a treasure of innate merit.

With the addition of other supreme treasures, the fortune of the Qin Ming lineage is as stable as Mount Buzhou.

Therefore, even though Bodhi and the others had considerable cultivation, they still could not find the location of Zixiao Palace despite venturing into the Chaos for a long time.

All of this was due to Hongjun's underhanded tactics.

Because, knowing that he could not reap the fortune of Bodhi and others, he still let them come to listen to the Dao. Wasn't this just training disciples for Qin Ming for free?

Unfortunately, Qin Ming ultimately intervened and thwarted Hongjun's plan; it was Qin Ming who created the passage to the Pure World White Lotus.

However, what Hongjun couldn't understand was that he couldn't harvest the fortune of Qin Ming's disciples.

Why couldn't he reap Nuwa's fortune?

You must know, Nuwa was his chosen disciple.

Could it be that Qin Ming was behind it all?

Thinking of this, Hongjun secretly made calculations.

No matter how hard he tried to calculate, he couldn't figure out what the problem was.

On the other side, as Hongjun paused his sermon, the cultivators who were immersed in the Daoist rhymes felt nauseous and opened their eyes, looking at Hongjun with confusion.

They didn't understand why Hongjun stopped preaching halfway through his sermon.

Looking at the gazes of the cultivators below, Hongjun took a deep breath, suppressed his confusion, and continued his sermon.

Thus, the cultivators recovered and were once again immersed in Hongjun's Daoist aura.

Compared to Qin Ming's gradual and in-depth explanations of the Dao, breaking down each Dao into its components, Hongjun's teachings were undoubtedly much more profound.

This also led to varying degrees of acceptance among the cultivators.

Some of the cultivators were overjoyed when they heard the most ingenious parts.

Some of the monks scratched their heads and looked pained.

Some cultivators, deep in thought, integrated the Dao of Hongjun into themselves, thus improving their cultivation and laws.

In a short time, all sorts of people in the Zixiao Palace were in various states of mind.

Just as the group of cultivators were engrossed in listening to the sermon, a loud snoring sound suddenly echoed throughout Zixiao Palace.

Upon seeing this, the group of cultivators were stunned and subconsciously looked behind them, each with a strange expression on their face.

The six-eared macaque was seen fast asleep, clutching an iron rod.

This scene caused Hongjun's suppressed anger to rise again.

He felt that Qin Ming had sent his disciples over to cause trouble.

How can someone fall asleep while listening to a sermon? Is the sermon you're preaching a lullaby?

With a gloomy expression, Hongjun waved his hand, isolating the Six-Eared Macaque. He then released a burst of magical power to bring everyone's attention back before continuing his sermon.

Time passed gradually, and three thousand years flew by in the blink of an eye.

"The first sermon is over. You may return to your caves and calmly contemplate the teachings I have imparted."

"The second sermon will take place three thousand years from now. Go forth!"

Without waiting for a reply, Hongjun vanished from Zixiao Palace in a flash.

Seeing this, the group of cultivators turned and left Zixiao Palace one after another.

"Fourth Senior Brother, you're really something! You even dared to fall asleep during the Dao Ancestor's sermon!"

"Yes, Third Junior Brother, you didn't see the Dao Ancestor's expression at the time, haha!"

As they left Zixiao Palace, Qin Yu, Minghe, and the others teased the Six-Eared Macaque.

"Well, I couldn't help myself, I just couldn't help myself!"

The six-eared macaque gave an embarrassed smile.

He really didn't mean it.

For some reason, he always felt drowsy when listening to Hongjun preach, and would fall asleep without realizing it.

"Alright, he is, after all, the Dao Ancestor, and now that he has attained enlightenment, we should not speak ill of a sage."

"Now that the sermon has concluded, what are your thoughts, fellow disciples?"

Bodhi looked at the people playing around and said calmly.

"I prepare to continue my journey through the primordial world, collecting divine fire!"

"I'm going to the Pangu Temple to fight the Ancestral Witch."

"I plan to collect some spiritual herbs in preparation for embarking on the path of alchemy!"

"I will return to the Blood Sea to continue refining its origin."

As Bodhi finished speaking, the Six-Eared Macaque and the others revealed their plans.

"Second Senior Brother, what are you planning to do?"

Zhen Yuanzi looked at Hongyun and asked curiously.

"I feel that there is an opportunity for me at Buzhou Mountain, and I wish to go and see it."

Upon hearing this, Hongyun's eyes shone brightly, piercing through the chaos as he looked towards the direction of Buzhou Mountain.

"In that case, I shall accompany my second senior brother on this journey."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi immediately spoke.

"Are Second Senior Brother and Seventh Junior Brother also going to Buzhou Mountain?"

"Then we're going the same way, let's go together!"

Upon seeing this, the Six-Eared Macaque immediately made a suggestion.

"Since you all have your own things to do, we shall take our leave here. If you encounter any danger, you may send me a message through the Bodhi seed. Fellow disciples, please be careful."

Seeing that his fellow disciples all had arrangements made, Bodhi nodded, gave them a word of advice, and then left first.

Seeing this, everyone said their goodbyes and dispersed.

In the primordial era, there was Mount Buzhou.

Not only Hongyun sensed the opportunity, but the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Dijun, and Taiyi also sensed that an opportunity was about to be born.

So, after leaving Zixiao Palace, the Three Pure Ones and the others sped towards Buzhou Mountain.

Before long, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Fuxi, Dijun, and Taiyi arrived one after another in front of a primordial array.

"Have you fellow cultivators also sensed the opportunity?"

Upon seeing the group of cultivators, Taiqing Laozi raised an eyebrow.

"Indeed, I sense that a spiritual treasure destined for me is about to be born here."

Nuwa nodded calmly upon hearing this.

"We are too!"

Di Jun and Tai Yi echoed this.

"Wow, it's quite lively, Second Senior Brother. This opportunity seems to be extraordinary, attracting so many cultivators here."

Just as Taiqing Laozi was pondering what this opportunity was, another voice came.

The next moment, Hongyun, the Six-Eared Macaque, and Zhen Yuanzi arrived at this place.

Upon seeing Hongyun and the other two, the expressions of Sanqing and the others changed.

Hongyun and the other two are Qin Ming's personal disciples, each with formidable combat power.

Putting everything else aside, Hongyun's cultivation level has already reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and he is only one step away from the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm.

The six-eared macaque is no ordinary creature either.

Although he only had the cultivation level of a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal, his combat strength was in no way inferior to any peak Great Luo Golden Immortal cultivator.

As for Zhen Yuanzi, he needs no introduction. Possessing the Earth Book, the Spirit Sealing List, and the Spirit Whip, he is not only unparalleled in defense, but his combat power is also not to be underestimated.

Now that the three of them are gathered here, it seems that the opportunities to seize later will be difficult to come by.

"May I ask what brings Fellow Daoist Hongyun here?"

Taiqing Laozi looked at Hongyun with a serious expression.

"Fellow Daoist Taiqing, please don't misunderstand. I am only seeking my own opportunity. As for Junior Brother Liu Er and Junior Brother Zhen Yuanzi, they are here with me, so you don't need to worry about them."

Seeing the wary look on Taiqing Laozi's face, Hongyun smiled faintly.

"In that case, we thank Fellow Daoist Hongyun!"

Hearing Hongyun's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and stood calmly in front of the innate formation.

As time passed, and after an unknown amount of time, when all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured into the Innate Grand Array, Sanqing Hongyun and the others opened their eyes one after another, looking at the Innate Grand Array with excited expressions.

"boom!!!"

With a deafening sound, the innate formation trembled violently, and seven-colored rays of light pierced through the formation, revealing the world within.
