Primordial Era: Something's Wrong with This Generation of Witch Clan

Chapter 31 Re-entering the Taiyin Star, Hongjun Accepts Disciples

After completing his scheme, Pan Huang left the star field, but just as he flew out of it, his entire body suddenly trembled. ☞💔 ☠🌷

"Fellow Daoist!" A somewhat cold female voice appeared behind Pan Huang, and it was this voice that made him tremble.

Pan Huang thought to himself, "What I'm doing can't be discovered. Maybe I should just kill him to silence him. What's happening in the Endless Starfield must never be exposed."

Thinking of this, Pan Huang put on a warm smile, then slowly turned his head, and then saw a female immortal dressed in a gorgeous white palace dress, with a cool and aloof temperament, appear in front of him.

"Damn it, it's Xihe! How do we kill her? She's involved in a lot of trouble!" Panhuang was worried when he saw that the person who came was actually the Moon Goddess.

"Fellow Daoist, you seem quite reluctant to see me," Xihe said with a smile, as if she had sensed Panhuang's thoughts.

"How could that be! That's not true." Pan Huang quickly waved his hand.

"Fellow Daoist, is there something important you need to do?" Xihe asked Panhuang.

"No, I was just browsing around. Yes, just browsing around."

Xihe saw through Panhuang's attempt to conceal his intentions, but she was not prepared to expose him, because in her view it had nothing to do with her, at least not now.

"Since you have nothing urgent to attend to, fellow Daoist, would you do me the honor of visiting my Moon Palace?" Xihe extended an invitation to Panhuang.

Pan Huang didn't know what Xi He was up to, but in the end he still agreed. If Xi He tried to use the Endless Star Domain to blackmail Pan Huang, he wouldn't mind killing her, even though killing her would cause him some trouble.

Upon arriving at the Moon Palace, Xihe and Changxi warmly welcomed Panhuang, which made Panhuang frown.

"I wonder what you mean by this?" Pan Huang asked somewhat uncertainly when he saw Chang Xi and the others like this.

"Fellow Daoist, do you still remember the scene when you came last time?" Chang Xi asked Pan Huang.

"Fellow Daoist, please speak plainly about what's on your mind."

"Fellow Daoist mentioned before that we should be careful of the Sun Star. This Sun Star should refer to Di Jun and Tai Yi, right?" Xi He said, looking at Pan Huang.

When Pan Huang heard them say that, he just glanced at them indifferently, then picked up the tea on the table and took a small sip.

When Changxi and Xihe saw Panhuang like this, they were certain in their hearts that it must be Dijun and Taiyi.

"Fellow Daoist, to be honest, recently when my sister and I cultivate, we always feel a strange tremor in our hearts. Then we can't help but think of what you once said. Please tell us what this means. My sister and I are willing to exchange a laurel branch for it," Xihe said to Panhuang.

This laurel branch is one of the ten innate spiritual roots, and it is very precious. It is also an excellent choice for refining weapons. The main reason is that the Moon Palace is poor, and Chang Xi and Xi He have nothing else. The only thing they can offer is this laurel branch.

"You have discovered the oath of Heaven, and I will tell you," Pan Huang said after thinking for a moment.

The reason he wanted to tell Chang Xi and the others was to ruin Di Jun's plans and, incidentally, see if he could gain some allies, since their union with Di Jun would ultimately strengthen the demon race.

"Alright!" Xihe discovered the Heavenly Oath without saying a word, and Changxi followed closely behind.

"The reason I said those things before was simply because I didn't want to see you all perish. After you provoked the Sun Star, you will die, and die a terrible death. You can verify the truth of my words in the future." Pan Huang thought for a moment and finally said this.

In fact, his argument is entirely plausible, because after they married Di Jun, they would indeed die in the final battle between the Lich King and the Demon King. Furthermore, Xi He burned her primordial spirit, resulting in her soul being scattered.

As for Chang Xi, she also died, but a wisp of her soul was reincarnated as Chang'e, who ultimately took revenge on Da Yi. None of these were good endings.

Upon hearing Pan Huang's words, they suddenly realized that Pan Huang was telling the truth. However, they then had another question: how did Pan Huang know their future fate?

"Don't ask me how I know. It's my secret. You can choose not to believe me, it doesn't matter." Pan Huang seemed to see their confusion and added.

"Thank you for clearing up my doubts, fellow Daoist!" Upon hearing Pan Huang's words, they bowed to him.

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." After saying this, Pan Huang got up to leave.

"Fellow Daoist, this is a laurel branch. We Taiyin Star don't have many good things, and this laurel branch is the only one we can offer. Please don't find it unworthy." Xihe said, handing Panhuang a laurel branch that was about a meter long and as thick as an arm.

"Then I'll accept it." Pan Huang nodded.

"Fellow Daoist, I have one last question."

"Speaking!"

"If they pressure us, can we seek the protection of fellow Daoists?" Xihe looked at Panhuang, her eyes gleaming with hope.

"Okay!" Pan Huang nodded. He couldn't be happier. This was the Taiyin Star Lord. If they didn't help Di Jun, then even if his tricks on the South Pole Star were discovered, it wouldn't be a big deal. After all, the Taiyin Star, one of the main stars, was the most important part of the Zhou Tian Star Array.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"

"Farewell!" Pan Huang cupped his hands in farewell and then left Taiyin Star.

After leaving Taiyin Star, Pan Huang thought for a while and realized that there was nothing left to plan, so he returned to Buzhou Mountain.

After returning to Buzhou Mountain, he suddenly seemed to remember something and found Houtu, the Ancestral Witch. Panhuang then took some Nine Heavens Breath Soil and three drops of her life essence from Houtu. Finally, he stripped Houtu of a trace of her true spirit. With Pangu Jade Marrow, Houtu would recover very quickly.

After obtaining these, Pan Huang went to the Blood Pool for seclusion.

Meanwhile, back at Zixiao Palace, three thousand years had passed without anyone noticing, and Hongjun stopped speaking.

"If you have any questions, I can answer them for you," Hongjun said, looking at the people in Zixiao Palace.

"Master Dao, could you please explain in detail the path to sainthood?" As the one sitting on the first futon, Laozi was the first to raise his question.

"There are three ways to achieve sainthood!"

"What are the three types of Dao Ancestors?" Di Jun quickly asked.

Hongjun was not annoyed that Dijun had interrupted him. He smiled and continued, "There are three methods to become a saint: the Three Corpses Method, the Merit Method, and the final one, the Power Method. The Great God Pangu used the Power Method to become a saint."

"Dao Ancestor, which of these three methods is the strongest?" Tongtian asked.

"Of the three methods of attaining enlightenment, the method of attaining enlightenment through force is the strongest, but it is also the most difficult and dangerous. Next is the method of attaining enlightenment through the Three Corpses, and finally the method of attaining enlightenment through merit," Hongjun continued patiently.

"May I ask, what method did the Ancestor use to attain enlightenment?" After thinking for a while, Yuanshi Tianzun finally couldn't resist his curiosity and asked.

"I used the Three Corpses Proving Dao Method," Hongjun said with a smile, looking at the group of cultivators before him.

When everyone heard that the Dao Ancestor also used the Three Corpses to Achieve Sainthood, smiles appeared on their faces. During the second lecture on the Quasi-Sainthood, some of them broke through to Quasi-Sainthood in the Purple Cloud Palace. After returning to the Primordial World, they severed one of their corpses. If the Dao Ancestor said that he did not use the Three Corpses to Prove the Dao, some of them would probably regret it. Fortunately, the Dao Ancestor also used the Three Corpses to Prove the Dao.

After waiting for a while, seeing that no one had any more questions, Hongjun addressed the gods, saying, "The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, but one is missing, so the Heavenly Dao is incomplete. Now that the three sermons are over, I will merge with the Dao and cease to exist in the primordial world."

The gods of Zixiao Palace exclaimed in admiration, "The Dao Ancestor is merciful!"

Hongjun remained expressionless, merely nodding. Then he addressed the gods below, saying, "In my early years, I traveled throughout the primordial world and collected some spiritual treasures. Now they are of no use to me, so I will pass them on to you."

After saying this, he addressed the Three Pure Ones: "You Three Pure Ones are the transformations of Pangu's primordial spirit, possessing the merits of creating the world. You may become my disciples. Are you willing?"

Upon hearing Hongjun's words, the Three Pure Ones replied in unison, "We are willing! Disciples greet Master."

Hongjun nodded, then said to Nuwa, "Nuwa will have great opportunities and great fortune in the future. Would you be willing to personally teach me?"

Upon seeing this, Nuwa rose and bowed to Hongjun, saying, "This disciple is willing. This disciple Nuwa greets Master."

After Hongjun finished asking Nuwa, he prepared to distribute the treasures, but at this moment Zhunti suddenly knelt down in front of Hongjun and cried, "Please have mercy, Master. My senior brother and I have come from afar. The spiritual veins of the West are completely destroyed and extremely barren. I hope you will have pity on us and accept us."

After listening, Hongjun's lips curled into a faint smile: "You are all individuals of great perseverance and opportunity. Would you be willing to become my disciples?"

Zhunti frowned, feeling a little displeased but not showing it. He decisively pulled Jieyin along and said he was willing. Fortunately, he was keeping his head down at the moment, otherwise, if Hongjun saw him frowning, it would definitely displease Hongjun.

Seeing Zhunti's actions, the others followed suit. Hongjun, annoyed, said, "You are not destined to be with me; you can only serve as protectors of my Xuanmen."

Before anyone could speak, Hongjun went straight to the point, saying, "There are nine holy positions in Heaven and Earth, and I can obtain six of them. These six streams of Primordial Purple Qi are the foundation of the Great Dao. Obtaining them allows one to prove the Dao and become a saint. I will give them to you all."

After saying this, he separated six streams of purple energy, and the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Zhunti, and Jieyin each received one. When the Three Pure Ones and the others saw the primordial purple energy enter their bodies, they showed excited expressions.

The others, upon seeing this last wisp of Primordial Purple Qi, all revealed expressions of longing. This was the foundation of the Great Dao! Obtaining this Primordial Purple Qi would guarantee their ascension to sainthood.

Hongjun looked at the last wisp of Primordial Purple Qi in his hand, then at the expectant eyes of the crowd, and finally sighed.

"In that case, let this last wisp of primordial purple energy choose its own master." After saying this, Hongjun released his hand.

This wisp of primordial purple energy swirled above the heads of everyone in Zixiao Palace, and whoever it touched would show an expression of wild joy on their face.

But when the Primordial Purple Qi left, their faces would show sadness and resentment, but none of them dared to say anything, after all, the Dao Ancestor was still sitting above.

Soon, the Primordial Purple Qi arrived in front of Kunpeng. It lingered in front of Kunpeng for a long time, which made Kunpeng tremble with excitement. This was a Saintly position!

The others looked at Kunpeng with resentment. Dijun and Taiyi even had a hint of killing intent in their eyes. If Kunpeng obtained the Primordial Purple Qi, they would risk the backlash of the demon race's fortune to kill him. In the demon race, anyone could become a saint, but Kunpeng was the only one who could not.

But in the end, the Primordial Purple Qi still left Kunpeng's side, and Kunpeng's face instantly turned pale. He even involuntarily reached out his hand, but the next second, countless killing intents locked onto him, forcing Kunpeng to withdraw his hand.

After leaving Kunpeng, the Primordial Purple Qi came to Hongyun's side. It lingered in front of Hongyun for a long time, even longer than it had been beside Kunpeng, which made everyone nervous again, including Kunpeng.

whoosh-

Amidst the astonishment and resentment of the crowd, the Primordial Purple Qi entered Hongyun's body. Hongyun was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with wild joy. He never expected that such immense wealth would fall upon his head.

"Thank you, Dao Ancestor! Thank you, Dao Ancestor!" Hongyun excitedly kowtowed several times to Hongjun.

Hongyun was happy, but Zhen Yuanzi, standing to the side, had a solemn expression on his face. He could already feel the chilling killing intent around him, especially from Kunpeng.

At this moment, Kunpeng looked at Hongyun's excited expression and felt like he was about to grind his teeth to dust. If it weren't for Hongyun back then, how could he have lost his position on the futon? If he hadn't given up the futon, he would definitely have had a share of the Primordial Purple Qi.

Why does this red cloud possess this Primordial Purple Qi? I, Kunpeng, refuse to accept this!

The more Kunpeng thought about it, the angrier he became. He then glanced at the expressions of those around him, and a cruel smile appeared on his face. Kunpeng was positioned towards the back, so no one noticed the smile on his face.

For some reason, after Hongyun obtained the Primordial Purple Qi, Dijun and Taiyi inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, and then the way they looked at Hongyun began to become strange.

At the same time, Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance, and they both saw a hint of killing intent in each other's eyes, an intent to kill Hongyun.

It was because of Hongyun's abdication that they were able to obtain this futon. Unexpectedly, this futon was the opportunity to become a saint. Although their shameless pleading also contributed to this, the main reason was still because of the futon. Without the futon, their master would not have paid any attention to them, just like just now. This is equivalent to them owing Hongyun a huge karmic debt, which they can never repay!

Since they can't repay the debt, the only option is to kill Hongyun. Once Hongyun is dead, the karmic connection between them will cease to exist.

Fortunately, they weren't the only ones here who wanted to kill Hongyun, so Jieyin and Zhunti only needed to give him a push from the shadows, and Hongyun would surely die. Thinking of this, smiles returned to their faces.

When the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa saw Hongyun like this, they both showed a look of regret. In their opinion, when Hongyun accepted that Primordial Purple Qi, his fate was already sealed, since there was no Dao Ancestor to support him.
