Primordial Era: Infinite Evolution, Starting with Intercepting the Queen Mother of the West

Zixiao Palace!

call out--

call out--

With a whooshing sound, Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian, Jieyin, and Zhunti arrived, looking somewhat disheveled.

After glancing at the tightly closed gates of Zixiao Palace, the five exchanged a glance, then bowed and said, "Disciples request an audience with the Dao Ancestor!"

"This disciple requests an audience with the Dao Ancestor!"

"..."

As the five voices echoed, the tightly closed door quietly opened.

The next second, Hongjun's voice rang out: "Come in!"

In an instant, Laozi and his group of five no longer hesitated and flew into the Zixiao Palace.

"Greetings, Master!"

"Greetings, Dao Ancestor!"

"..."

Before long, the five people arrived at the main hall and bowed to Hongjun.

"Hmm, what's going on here?"

Hongjun glanced at the five people, somewhat puzzled.

At the same time, feelings of unease began to emerge within him.

For no other reason than that he could vaguely sense that something seemed to have happened to Laozi and the other four.

"Master!"

Not daring to be negligent, Laozi and the others bowed and said, "We have come here to ask our master for help."

"Master, this is what happened. There are ruins of a demonic sect at the foot of Mount Sumeru, and we are going there to investigate..."

The five of them immediately recounted the story of the Demonic Cult's ruins.

They also recounted the loss of their own evil corpses, as it was a matter of great importance and they couldn't hide it.

"The ruins of a demonic cult!"

"Rahu?"

After hearing what Laozi and the others said, Hongjun's face instantly turned as black as ink.

Now that things have come to this, he's no longer an idiot; how could he not see the purpose behind the five people entering?

However, even though he could see through it, this was still his disciple, a pawn he had chosen. In addition, given the current special circumstances, Hongjun really couldn't pursue the matter further.

Most importantly, there is something wrong with this whole thing.

Even the matter of the Demonic Path Rahu was a huge hidden danger for him. The fact that he was able to know about it in advance can be considered a merit of Laozi and the other four.

Upon realizing this, Hongjun's expression immediately turned solemn: "I am aware of this matter!"

"However, that place is not something I can get my hands on right now."

"The ruins of the demonic sect beneath Mount Sumeru—if nothing unexpected happens, my old rival is among them."

"As the master of a path, my old rival is not someone who can be dealt with easily."

"Under these circumstances, we won't go into the specifics of your evil corpse clones for now, but the Four Swords of Zhuxian are gone forever."

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent.

We were alright, since we had already prepared ourselves mentally beforehand.

However, Tongtian also showed a sorrowful expression at this moment.

For no other reason than that this matter was too stimulating for him and had a huge impact on him.

Without the Four Swords of Zhuxian, even if he attained sainthood, he would still be just an ordinary person, completely incomparable to Laozi and Yuanshi.

After all, the two of them possessed innate treasures, which were incomparable to Tongtian, who currently had nothing.

"Master, is there really no way?"

Unwilling to give up, Tongtian stepped forward and asked.

"No!"

Shaking his head, Hongjun glanced at Tongtian before continuing, "This matter is also difficult for me to handle. The Heavenly Dao has now lost absolute control over the prehistoric world, making it almost impossible to suppress that old friend."

"After all, the existence of the demonic path is real; when the Daoist master rises, the demonic path fades, and vice versa!"

Upon hearing this, Tongtian immediately lowered his head in disappointment.

He knew he could never retrieve the Four Swords of Zhuxian, and perhaps even his future self would…

"alright."

At this moment, Hongjun suddenly spoke, breaking the heavy atmosphere.

Then, his gaze swept across the entire room as he spoke, "While this matter is indeed unchangeable, some things are not immutable!"

"I already know the purpose of your visit. I will now begin the third sermon ahead of schedule."

"After this sermon concludes, I will merge with the Dao. At that time, the power of the Heavenly Dao will once again cover the primordial world. Even if it doesn't reach the initial level, it will still be stronger than it is now!"

"At that time, I will grant you the opportunity to attain enlightenment. Whether you succeed or not depends on whether you are willing to risk everything."

Upon hearing this, Laozi and his four companions were overjoyed.

The opportunity to attain enlightenment!

Let's go all out!

There is absolutely no problem with that; they have been waiting for this day for far too long.

Without any hesitation, the five of them bowed and said, "Thank you, Master!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Without further ado, Hongjun waved his hand and began to transmit his voice throughout the primordial world: "I am Hongjun. The third sermon is about to begin. Those who are destined may come and listen."

In an instant, the primordial world trembled.

Countless cultivators were somewhat taken aback, as the timing of this lecture was clearly inappropriate.

However, despite sensing something was amiss, not many top-tier supernatural beings were willing to go.

After all, everyone now cultivates the laws to prove their Dao, and because of the existence of the Black Tower of Inheritance, Quasi-Saints are basically everywhere in the prehistoric world.

For this reason, 99% of the cultivators simply ignored it and continued to venture into the Black Tower to attempt the trials.

However, a small number of cultivators could not resist the pull of their hearts and greed, and flew directly out of the prehistoric world towards Zixiao Palace.

"Is this the third sermon?"

At the same time, Di Tian had already returned to the primordial world.

Upon hearing Hongjun's voice, a hint of disdain appeared in his eyes.

For no other reason than that he had roughly guessed what Hongjun was trying to do.

However, despite guessing it, Di Tian had no intention of participating at all. The so-called lecture at Zixiao Palace was now a huge joke.

In particular, his conversation with Rahu made him understand the true nature of the so-called "severing the three corpses".

Thinking of this, Di Tian's expression turned solemn; "That's about it."

"I must become the master of a path as soon as possible!"

"Only by becoming the ancestor of the Dao can I preserve my power in the battles to come."

Upon realizing this, Di Tian immediately sped up.

Not long after, Di Tian returned to the Di Tian tribe.

Without alerting the rest of the clansmen, Di Tian quickly arrived at Di Miao's location and said, "Come with me!"

"Now that things have come to this, we need to speed up our plans!"

"Although you haven't yet reached a point where I'm satisfied, some things are beyond change."

"good!"

Upon hearing this, Di Miao nodded.

He understood the meaning behind Di Tian's words.

Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, as an avatar, he couldn't defy Di Tian.

Under these circumstances, Di Miao followed Di Tian and left the Di Tian tribe, speeding all the way towards the Blood Sea Land.
