Primordial Era: I, Wutu, govern the Earthly Dao and suppress the Heavenly Dao.

Chapter 88 Luo Hou Hongjun's Killing Intent Against the Five Elements

When Hongjun, whose entire body was charred black and smelled of burnt food, fell into the East Sea.

The disciples, including Sanqing, Nuwa, and Fuxi, were all on edge and rushed forward at top speed, shouting, "Teacher!"

Their anxiety stemmed not from concern for the teacher.

Instead, they were concerned about the terrible situation that awaited them after Hongjun was injured!

If Hongjun were seriously injured and unconscious here, would Naluo and Wuxing, these two Chaos Demon Gods, let go of such a great opportunity to subdue Hongjun and them?

However, Tongtian was not among the disciples who had these ideas.

It was Shangqing Tongtian again. Although he wasn't the fastest among Hongjun's disciples, he was the quickest and most agile!

He immediately helped Hongjun up, pulled him into his arms, and anxiously reminded him, "Master, your Three Lights Divine Water!"

Upon hearing this, Hongjun, with his weakened consciousness, immediately retrieved a crystal-clear jade bottle.

This jade bottle is the Jade Purification Bottle containing a few drops of the Three Lights Divine Water.

Just as Shangqing Tongtian was about to accept it, Yuqing Yuanshi, who was standing to the side, snatched it away in a flash.

Learn from your mistakes!

That's how the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl was lost. As one of the Three Pure Ones, Yuqing, who was also blessed by his teacher, could not let this opportunity pass.

Yuqing Yuanshi's eyes suddenly showed worry, and he hurriedly put a drop of the Three Lights Divine Water into Hongjun's mouth.

Having obtained this healing elixir that could even restore the injuries of a saint, Hongjun, who had not yet become a saint, naturally saw his injuries heal rapidly before his very eyes.

Hongjun, whose consciousness had returned to normal, looked at his disciple Tongtian who was supporting him, and was filled with relief.

"My disciple Tongtian, very well indeed!"

Looking at his Tongtian disciple, who was no longer rebellious, but calm and composed in handling matters, Hongjun grew to like him more and more, and his eyes changed from gratification to doting affection!

"If he does not harbor any further thoughts of betrayal, I will—"

While Hongjun was secretly doting on Tongtian, he was unaware of it.

He was currently naked, completely exposed, being held by Tongtian.

Coupled with his doting gaze, the other disciples around him felt that something was definitely off.

Taiqing's face was like a withered tree. My third brother is indeed the youngest and most handsome among us disciples.

But isn't Junior Sister Nuwa even more in line with the harmony of Yin and Yang?

After busying herself for half a day, Yuqing, who hadn't received any attention, looked as if struck by lightning. "I understand!"

No wonder the teacher dotes on my third brother so much. Even if I perform well, I won't be valued. It turns out that what the teacher feels for my third brother isn't just doting, it's love!

Nuwa glanced away, out of sight, out of mind. Wasn't this old earthworm cultivating the path of immortality? How come he was also cultivating the path of dual yang?

"Huh~"

As one of only two disciples who appeared to be young, Fuxi's gaze was extremely strange at this moment.

That face, which was once that of a young man, had quietly sprouted a goatee without anyone noticing. No!

In that case, I can't stay here any longer; I must find a chance to escape as soon as possible!

As Hongjun's injuries lessened, he seemed to notice that his disciples' gazes were too strange.

At that moment, a flash of white light appeared around him, and a long robe was put back on his body.

Even his once-explosive white hair became smooth again, returning him to his previous dignified and otherworldly appearance, though his old face still had a weak, pale look.

Hongjun smoothed his still-present white beard and turned his gaze from Shangqing to Yuqing.

These treasures are all in the hands of his disciples, so Hongjun, as their teacher, naturally couldn't refuse to ask for them again.

"My disciple, this treasure contains seven drops of the Three Lights Divine Water. I hope you will use it with caution in the future."

"Thank you, Master."

Upon finally obtaining the treasure, Yuqing Yuanshi was overjoyed and immediately offered his thanks.

Hongjun, who had just been punished by Heaven and Earth, dared not utter another word, no matter how angry or furious he was with Zhenyuanzi.

He could only grit his teeth and glare fiercely in the direction of Zhen Yuanzi. "Zhen Yuanzi! You just wait!"

"After I attain enlightenment on your behalf, I will settle accounts with you for all the causes and effects!"

"Fellow Daoist Five Elements, it seems I underestimated you."

At that moment, a deep voice suddenly came from Fangzhang Island.

The one who spoke was Luo, who had just discovered something. "If it weren't for the punishment of heaven and earth this time, even I wouldn't have noticed that your cultivation had improved again without my knowledge!"

""

Luo's words caused Hongjun, who had just been bombarded, to suddenly darken his old face and look towards Penglai Island.

In his eyes, the power of the innate grand formation on Penglai Island was several times stronger than before!

The reason, naturally, is to confirm Luo's words: the Five Elements Ancestor's cultivation level has improved!

Upon seeing this, Hongjun's eyes narrowed, and he understood. "It seems that because all five elements have emerged from the primordial world, your cultivation has also increased, Fellow Daoist Five Elements. But why did you suppress it earlier?"

The Five Elements Ancestor, who was being watched, chuckled calmly within the grand formation of Penglai Island. "Fellow Daoist Hongjun, you are mistaken."

"I did not deliberately suppress my abilities before; it was only after I returned to Penglai that my cultivation improved slightly again."

"Hehe~"

The words of the Five Elements made Hongjun and Luohou both smile speechlessly.

Slight increase?

Who are you kidding?

In their perception, the Five Elements Demon Gods' cultivation level has now reached the same level as theirs!

This is the peak realm of the Primordial Golden Immortal!

After the great calamity of the ferocious beasts, the Five Elements Demon God received merit from the Heavenly Dao, and his cultivation level was raised to the middle stage.

After countless eons of cultivation and the acquisition of Huang Zhongli from Penglai Island, his cultivation level rose to the late stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

Now, the four divine beasts of metal, wood, water, and fire guard the four directions of the land, replenishing the power of the four elements in the primordial world, making the five elements laws of the primordial world even stronger than before!

This also made him the Five Elements Ancestor of the Five Elements Dao, and his power of law became even stronger, breaking through the bottleneck that had already reached the later stage, and proving the peak of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm!

Their equal strength made both Hongjun and Luohou feel threatened.

One Zhen Yuanzi is enough!

Now that they have another opponent of similar skill level, how can they tolerate it?

Killing intent surged forth simultaneously from his Dao heart!

The Five Elements also knew that once their strength was exposed, it would surely make Hongjun and Luohou feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

He just returned to Penglai Island not only to avoid the wrath of Heaven and Earth's Punishment of Hongjun, but also to guard against Hongjun and Luo!

When the Five Elements Ancestor saw that Hongjun and Luo Buyan were both staring at him, he became even more certain that they harbored murderous intent.

He was prepared for this and solemnly said, "Fellow Daoists, although Zhen Yuanzi's plan seems profound, it is actually just arranging appointments for his four disciples to become saints in the future."

"Even though the four divine beasts guard the spiritual veins of the four directions and can stabilize the tunnels, the stability of the tunnels is not limited to stabilizing the earth!"

"The underground world sustains all living beings, but now, without the leadership of the dragon, phoenix, or qilin clans, chaos will surely ensue!"

"The tunnel will never be secure!"

"And now is the opportunity for us to quickly attain enlightenment!"

Hongjun and Luo Zhan both nodded slightly in agreement with what the Five Elements Ancestor said.

They had to admit that the Five Elements theory was indeed reasonable.

Killing the Five Elements, what's more important than attaining enlightenment?

Luo Hou gazed at the primordial land with murderous intent in his eyes, secretly pondering, "Indeed, now that there are no three races to lead the primordial world, all races will inevitably descend into chaos due to the struggle for supremacy."

"With all races in turmoil, Zhen Yuanzi's plan to secure the underground passages is nothing but empty talk. This is precisely the opportune moment for our demonic path to take over the primordial world!"

"All living beings are not confined to the three races, yet the essence and blood of all races still remain!"

"I will use the corpse of the East Sea to unleash another sword strike, then return to the primordial world to slaughter my way through, completely unsealing the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, and proving my Dao through slaughter!"

Hongjun turned his gaze to the primordial land and muttered to himself, "Now that the three races have retreated from the primordial world, and all races have reappeared in the world, without a leader, the primordial world will indeed be in great chaos."

"Not only can his four disciples alone stabilize the underground passage, but the order of Heaven is even more chaotic than before the Great Calamity!"

"Indeed, this is the opportunity for me to uphold the order of Heaven and to prove my Dao!"

"But if I wish to uphold the order of Heaven and govern all races in the world, what should I do?"

Hongjun frowned, his gaze falling on his disciples. "The Three Pure Ones?"

"No!"

"They are the true descendants of Pangu, destined to become sages of the Heavenly Dao. They are absolutely not fit to govern the primordial world, let alone the three of them."
