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

Tongtian was taken aback, his lips trembling as he hesitated to utter a sound.

"boom--"

The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi came crashing down again, and Laozi punched Tongtian in the eye socket. Both of them felt a sharp pain in their hearts, but they had no choice but to do it.

Tongtian was incredibly audacious. They knew all along that the Jie Sect was doomed to defeat, but Tongtian refused to accept this outcome and secretly absorbed the Calamity Qi. Now that the Jie Sect is destroyed, it's like adding insult to injury.

Their previous actions were to prevent the blood feud of the Jie Sect from contaminating Tongtian's Dao Foundation, but now Tongtian is almost as badly affected as his Dao Foundation.

A whole Yuanhui!

Not only could their cultivation not improve, but they also had to endure the pain of being attacked by evil energy day and night. How could the two of them not be worried!

Only by thoroughly punishing Tongtian today and making him remember this lesson will he not act recklessly again and do similar things in the future!

A flash of pain crossed Yuanshi's eyes. His hand holding the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi trembled. This was his younger brother, born of the same flesh and blood; how could he not feel heartache? But...

Third brother, blame me if you want!

It's better than losing your life someday!

Yuanshi's eyes hardened, and he slammed down the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi. Tongtian was knocked to the ground, coughing up blood, and didn't even have the strength to get up.

Laozi and Yuanshi stared blankly at Tongtian in silence. Neither of them knew what they were thinking; they only felt a void in their hearts.

The entire Lintong Pass was completely silent; even the wind had stopped howling, and you could hear a pin drop.

The two hardened their hearts and stopped looking at him. They turned around and bowed to the void, saying, "Your Majesty, the Jie Sect has been destroyed. Once the Zhou army breaks through Chaoge, the Investiture of the Gods will be completed."

Haotian nodded calmly, as if nothing had happened: "In that case, you two should pay your respects to Master first."

He looked down and said, "Jiang Ziya, you shall immediately lead the Zhou army forward. Once the campaign against Shang is successful, you shall bestow titles upon the gods and immortals on the Investiture Platform."

"This humble immortal obeys the Heavenly Emperor's decree." Jiang Ziya performed a grand salute and then led the Zhou army forward. The Twelve Golden Immortals were at a loss, while Long Ji and the others bowed towards the void and pulled them along with the army.

"Disciple greets Master." Laozi Yuanshi's voice was somewhat weak. Hongjun shook his head and pointed to the chair beside him, "Sit down."

"Tongtian, come here too."

The Taoist priest lying on the ground stirred. With each movement he made, a malevolent aura accompanied him, aggravating his injuries and causing him to break out in a cold sweat from the pain.

Seeing the blood, tears, and sweat mixed on Tongtian's face, Hongjun felt a pang of pity. However, as his divine eye swept over the area, he couldn't help but feel anger in his eyes.

All of Tongtian's meridians were stagnant with turbid evil energy, making it extremely difficult for him to even heal his injuries, let alone cultivate!

Hongjun closed his eyes and watched Tongtian bow down. He then struck Tongtian's back three times with his purple bamboo staff. Tongtian was already numb from the blows, but he remained unfazed despite the intense pain.

Haotian raised an eyebrow and exchanged a glance. This is troublesome!

Although the master struck Tongtian three times, the turbid evil energy was only reduced by his holy power, which was nothing compared to the amount inside Tongtian's body.

As Tongtian pulled out a chair and sat down on the other side, Laozi Yuanshi's eyes darkened, and he turned his head away, no longer looking at him.

All the saints fell silent, and Haotian could only helplessly withdraw his gaze.

It was all because of that slap!

I always felt that Yuanshi Shige had put himself in the role of a father to Tongtian, a strict father who wanted to control Tongtian in everything and was always disappointed in him for his actions.

That slap must have made Yuanshi Shixiong regret his actions!

Laozi and Yuanshi lowered their heads, while Tongtian remained silent, calmly gazing into the void as if those points of light were something that attracted attention.

Below, Jieyin and Zhunti were filled with unease. The two carefully protected the golden lotus in front of them. Some disciples of the Jie Sect had been taken inside, but at this moment, all the saints had gathered, and even their master had come to this place. The two dared not move an inch.

Haotian looked over and saw that the disciples of the Chan Sect in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation had all been dealt with ruthlessly, not even sparing the disciples of the Jie Sect who had no merit or karma. It was clear that it was Senior Brother Yuanshi who had secretly given the order.

However, Jieyin and Zhunti took away less than a thousand people. Haotian sighed in his heart. After all, the disciples of the Jie Sect valued loyalty and righteousness. After Tongtian absorbed the turbid evil energy for his disciples, some of the Jie Sect disciples who originally had secret dealings with the Western Sect ultimately died in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation for the sake of the Jie Sect.

Of the Jie Sect members present, only about five hundred remain, suspended in the void by Yuanshi Tianzun…

"Duobao cursed and killed the saint, thus creating a karmic connection with you two. But by taking these disciples away, you will settle this karmic debt with him."

Hearing what Haotian said, Jieyin and Zhunti did not relax at all. The Heavenly Emperor only said to take them away to settle the karma, but did not say that they should be taken back to the West.

Haotian looked at the greatly shocked Tongtian in silence, a look of helplessness flashing in his eyes. Had he really been beaten so badly that his Dao heart had collapsed?

"If you two take them away, it means the fortune of the East will pass away." Haotian paused. "As the lord of immortals and gods, I will settle the karmic debt between you two. You may take them all!"

The saints' eyes flickered. What a scheme! Using the disciples of the Jie Sect to settle their own karma.

Yaochi remained silent. Could the cause and effect of the two great supernatural powers, "The Sixteen-Foot Golden Body" and "Proving the Dao in a Dream," really end in this way?

Laozi and Yuanshi looked anxious. They didn't like the disciples of the Jie Sect, but that didn't mean they would just let Jieyin and Zhunti take them back like that!

Haotian raised his palm, indicating that he did not want to listen. Jieyin and Zhunti hesitated for a moment, then hardened their hearts and said, "Thank you, Heavenly Emperor."

"Have your attendants take them back. You two come here." Hongjun nodded slightly.

Jieyin and Zhunti dared not be negligent and hurriedly handed the Golden Lotus of Merit to the White Lotus Boy. The two stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Disciples pay respects to Master."

"Sit." Hongjun pointed to the chairs beside him. The two men were taken aback for a moment, then resignedly sat down next to Tongtian.

Haotian smiled, and with a thought, a black and red divine mosquito, shrouded in malevolent energy, flew out from the Western Heavenly Gate. Its proboscis flashed with cold light, leaving a black mark as it probed into the void.

Hongjun raised an eyebrow, but Haotian acted as if nothing had happened.

"Do you two have plans to start your own sect?" Hongjun asked softly, but he immediately unleashed a bolt of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning.

Jieyin and Zhunti looked horrified, and the expressions of all the saints also changed drastically. Even Tongtian raised his head, wondering what else they didn't understand from the expressions of these two!

"How dare you!"

"presumptuous!"

Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian, and Nuwa spoke in succession, glaring angrily at Jieyin and Zhunti. The powerful pressure made it difficult for the two of them to even breathe!

Starting a new sect sounds nice, but isn't it just betraying one's own sect?

In the primordial world, there is no greater sin than betraying the world and destroying the heavens and the earth!

Hongjun flicked his whisk, sweeping away all the oppressive aura. Looking at Jieyin and Zhunti, he coldly snorted, "What kind of cowardly behavior is this!"

Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance, hardened their hearts, and instantly knelt on the ground: "Master, please forgive us, your disciple dares not deceive you. We have indeed comprehended a new Dharma. Only by spreading this new Dharma can we fulfill our great vow!"

Of course, it could also bring great prosperity to the West, but faced with their master's all-seeing gaze, the two trembled and dared not use such a high-sounding excuse, so they could only tell the truth.

A look of satisfaction flashed in Hongjun's eyes. He was smart enough not to make a big fuss.

"Very well!" he said calmly, flicking his whisk, and looked at Yang Mei. "Fellow Daoist, how about a chat at Zixiao Palace?"

Raising his eyebrows with a strange look in his eyes, he nodded and left with Hongjun. However, a ray of spiritual light from Hongjun's fingertip entered Haotian's sea of ​​consciousness, causing him to tremble.

Haotian bowed: "After the Great Tribulation ends, this disciple will lead all the saints to Zixiao Palace to pay respects to Master and Senior Yangmei."

When the saints rose, the two figures had vanished from the void.

Jieyin and Zhunti were completely blank-minded. Had their master just agreed like that?

"Your Majesty, they..." They betrayed their master and ancestors!

Before Zhen Yuanzi could finish speaking, Haotian shook his head: "Master has already agreed. Let's go back to Heaven to discuss the matter of being listed."

His master took the blame for him, and even the Three Pure Ones couldn't press him for answers!

Seeing Haotian step onto the imperial carriage, Venus quickly stepped forward and announced loudly, "Your Majesty and Her Majesty, you are about to depart!"
