Transmigrating into Haotian, ruling the Three Pure Ones and pacifying the primordial world.

"Get up." Hongjun smiled and gently raised his hand, lifting Haotian up with a soft force.

Haotian lowered his eyes, concealing the emotions within. In his sleeve was clearly the Qiankun Cauldron he had returned to his master, which his master had given to him silently in this way for self-defense.

"Foolish child, don't act like this." Hongjun chuckled softly, looking at Haotian with gentle eyes. "You are the disciple who has inherited my mantle. We are master and disciple, there is no need for such formalities."

With a flick of his finger, one after another, magical treasures adorned Haotian's body: the Primordial Purple Crown, the Heaven-Stabilizing and Dao-Suppressing Hairpin, the Primordial Chaos Emperor Robe, the Myriad Dao Jade Belt, the Nine Heavens Radiant Pendant, the Commanding Ring, the Heavenly Pivot Suppressing Bracelet, and the Purple Heaven Treading Boots.

Bright!

So bright!

It was almost blinding. Haotian was covered in top-grade innate spiritual treasures, yet he didn't exude the slightest aura. The sheer power emanating from the treasures alone made Zhunti turn pale.

Haotian turned around gently, his imperial aura emanating outwards. The gods didn't even dare to breathe loudly. At this moment, he was like a Heavenly Emperor who ruled the nine heavens. His imperial aura suppressed Di Jun, making him seem like an ordinary cultivator.

Those who could come to Zixiao Palace were at least at the mid-stage of Taiyi realm. Even if they didn't have innate spiritual treasures, they had a few acquired spiritual treasures. But compared to Haotian, they all looked dusty and grimy.

This guy is practically a walking magic treasure stand!

The three Pure Ones breathed a sigh of relief, then looked up in unison, their eyes conveying a clear message: Master, do you still have much merit left?

These spiritual treasures were definitely crafted by Master using the Qiankun Cauldron. They are all top-grade innate spiritual treasures. Although they don't have the most restrictions, their combined power is almost comparable to that of innate supreme treasures.

If these weren't bestowed by Master, and if Junior Brother Haotian weren't a disciple of the Dao Ancestor, he would probably be robbed by the gods as soon as he left Zixiao Palace, and all his clothes would be stripped off. Any one of these pieces could be used to sever the three corpses!

"As expected of my disciple!" Hongjun exclaimed in praise, leaving the gods breathless. Where is your aloofness, Dao Ancestor?

The former Taoist patriarch was indifferent and ruthless, looking down on all living beings, aloof and untouched by worldly affairs, but now he is so kind and compassionate.

Haotian sighed. His master was about to attain enlightenment, so only now could he speak freely.

"This disciple bows in gratitude to Master. Please rest assured, Master, that this disciple will steadfastly uphold the Great Dao and live up to Master's expectations!"

A smile appeared on Hongjun's face. Haotian's disciple truly understands his master!

Sanqing sighed inwardly. His master's attitude towards Junior Brother Haotian was indeed unusual. He had never seen his master like this before, not at all like his previous aloof and detached demeanor.

Her smile doesn't look the same as before! (Just kidding!)

Hongjun, unlike his three rebellious disciples who were secretly criticizing him, shifted his gaze to Haotian's side: "Yaochi, you are my youngest disciple. I bestow upon you the Starry Sky Golden Hairpin and the Ethereal Sky-Entwining Belt."

The gods were no longer surprised when two top-grade innate spiritual treasures landed in front of Yaochi. Compared to Haotian, they had nothing to be shocked about!

"Disciple thanks Master for bestowing these treasures." Yaochi happily accepted the two treasures. As expected, Master had not forgotten her; both were top-grade innate spiritual treasures with forty-eight restrictions.

Hongjun's gaze swept over the Three Pure Ones, and he sighed inwardly. He had discussed with the Heavenly Dao about giving the Primordial Purple Qi to Yaochi, but the Heavenly Dao refused. He could only compensate them with more spiritual treasures.

However, he spent most of his merit power to refine those spiritual treasures for Haotian. But that's nothing, since he doesn't need them anyway, and he will be responsible for distributing the merits of all living beings in the prehistoric world in the future!

Hongjun reached out and plucked it, and the auspicious cloud above his head seemed to be plucked off directly, condensing into a soft cloud in his hand.

The rosy glow and radiant light hovered three feet above their heads, untouched by dust or evil influences.

Within the auspicious clouds, the primordial world appears and disappears, with the sun, moon, and stars rising and falling, and the three lights shining universally; within the clouds, five-colored Daoist rhymes flow, evolving the innate laws.

Amidst the auspicious clouds, the melodious sounds of celestial music lingered endlessly, resounding throughout the heavens and the universe; beyond the clouds, golden lanterns, golden lotuses, necklaces, and hanging beads fell from the sky like endless dripping water from the eaves, with golden light and auspicious energy covering the heavens and the earth, exuding supreme sacred majesty.

"This item is called the Celestial Celebration Cloud. It was formed from the righteous energy within Pangu's chest. It is neither innate nor acquired. Although it cannot suppress destiny, its defensive capabilities are no less than those of an innate treasure. Take it to protect yourself!"

Yaochi was taken aback. Could she also possess such a treasure for protection? Even her master hadn't given Haotian a treasure. She turned her head, looked at Haotian, and nodded slightly before taking a deep breath and accepting the item: "This disciple thanks Master."

The gods were speechless. Another supreme treasure! Just how many spiritual treasures does the Dao Ancestor have?

Nuwa was filled with envy, and Jieyin simply closed his eyes to avoid seeing it. Zhunti's eyes were red with jealousy, and he wished he could snatch it away immediately, but he dared not!

Yuanshi couldn't help but get up and watch helplessly as the auspicious clouds of the heavens were taken away by Yaochi.

This item was extremely compatible with one of the supernatural powers he had created. Hongjun gently shook his head. The Heavenly Auspicious Clouds were indeed destined to be with Yuanshi, but Yaochi had always been by his side. Although she was not as important as Haotian, she was more valued by him than Jieyin and Zhunti.

Laozi Tongtian remained silent for a moment. They knew about their second brother's/second brother's supernatural abilities, but what could they do when their master was distributing treasures?

Haotian was puzzled by Yuanshi's excited expression, but now that the Heavenly Auspicious Clouds had been given to Yaochi, they belonged to them.

Hongjun watched as the gods quieted down, then his voice suddenly rose, accompanied by the laws permeating the entire Zixiao Palace: "The Great Dao is fifty, and the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, therefore the Heavenly Dao is incomplete. After the three lectures at Zixiao Palace are over, I will unite with the Heavenly Dao."

"From this day forward, unless there is a great calamity befalling heaven and earth, Hongjun will not appear!"

"What?!"

"Master!"

The commotion echoed throughout the Zixiao Palace, and all the gods wore the same look of shock. They never expected that the Dao Ancestor would choose to merge with the Heavenly Dao.

The Dao Ancestor is the first saint of the primordial world. Even if someone becomes a saint in the future, they will not be able to compare with the Dao Ancestor. Moreover, although the Dao Ancestor is powerful, he is not as powerful as the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao is powerful, but it cannot interfere in the affairs of the primordial world at will.

"After Master merged with the Dao, what is the difference between him and the Heavenly Dao?" Zhunti mustered his courage and asked in a low voice.

The Three Pure Ones and Haotian Yaochi looked over at the same time. Zhunti swallowed hard, but did not back down.

Hongjun glanced at him, his face expressionless, and said in a deep voice, "The western earth veins are damaged, and the Heavenly Dao is incomplete. I will use my body to mend the Heavenly Dao. From now on, Hongjun is the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao is not Hongjun."

Jieyin and Zhunti shrank back, understanding their master's meaning. He had specifically pointed out the broken western earth veins to make them pay more attention.

"The Dao Ancestor is merciful!" The gods bowed down in a grand manner, merging with the Dao of Heaven. The primordial world would become more stable, and the laws of heaven and earth would become more complete, which would help them to comprehend the Dao and understand the laws.

The Dao Ancestor's act of perfecting the Dao of Heaven with his own body was an immense blessing to all living beings in the primordial world.

"You are disciples of my Xuanmen sect, and you should do your best to glorify the Great Dao and pass on the immortal path."

"Yes, disciple, obey the law!"

Several people on the prayer mat bowed down at the same time. From then on, no matter what cultivation methods existed in the prehistoric world, the immortal path was always the most prosperous!

"You have come to hear my teachings several times and have also practiced the method of severing the three corpses. You cannot do without innate spiritual treasures. I have established a treasure-sharing rock in the chaos. All the spiritual treasures I have obtained over the years are on it. It all depends on your fate. Go!"

The gods were overjoyed. As the gates of Zixiao Palace burst open, they all transformed into streaks of light and rushed out. In the blink of an eye, Zixiao Palace became empty, leaving only the Three Pure Ones and Haotian holding Yaochi's hand.

Seeing the group gathered there, Hongjun couldn't help but sigh, "Come with me!"
