Chapter 324: The Appearance of Hongjun

Translator: TransnEditor: Transn

The Zixiao Palace was once a holy land for all Tao pursuers in Untainted Land. Ancestor Hongjun taught and preached there three times, which were the foundations for the prosperous Way of Celestial Immortality in Untainted Land. Furthermore, since Hongjun combined his body with the Tao, the Zixiao Palace disappeared in Untainted Land. If there were no big event, he would not appear. At the moment, the Zixiao Palace appeared in the Chaos with supernatural power fluctuating inside it, in which there seemed to be some people fighting in magic arts.

After many years, Minghe saw the Zixiao Palace again, but suddenly, he made an extremely surprising discovery. It was not only a palace, but a Primordial Supreme Treasure of the Highest Grade. Before, he had not discovered it. However, there now seemed to be some dramatic changes in the Zixiao Palace. Hence, the vital force of the Zixiao Palace was exposed to Minghe as well.

Looking at the Zixiao Palace, Minghe's face turned somewhat grave. Although Primordial Supreme Treasures of the Highest Grade were rare and their power was strong, Minghe did not fear them. The problem was that the Zixiao Palace of Hongjun was not just a powerful Primordial Supreme Treasure, but Minghe could also feel the vital force of the 3,000 Great Ways above it that were similar to the Wheel of Law caused by the combination of Hongjun's body with the Tao.

Minghe curled up the corners of his mouth and showed a weird smile. He was not the only one who had realized that. This Primordial Supreme Treasure, refined for Heaven and Earth Taoist in Treasures World, was Mid Grade in the beginning. But it had been upgraded to Top Grade. That Primordial Supreme Treasure, modeled on the Wheel of Law in the Way of Heaven when Minghe combined his body with the Tao, represented the Wheel of Law in the Way of Heaven in the World of Heaven and Earth.

When the Wheel of Law in the Way of Heaven had been refined, Minghe gave it to Heaven and Earth Taoist, who used the Power of the Divine Law from the World of Heaven and Earth to cultivate it to integrate it with the Way of Heaven in the World of Heaven and Earth. Later, the Wheel of Law in the Way of Heaven succeeded in being upgraded to Top Grade. With the growth of the World of Heaven and Earth, the strength of the Wheel of Law in the Way of Heaven also grew.

Seeing what Hongjun had done, Minghe felt that he was evenly matched with him. Minghe used the World of Heaven and Earth to shape the Wheel of Law in the Way of Heaven while Hongjun combined his body with the Way of Heaven to replicate it in his Zixiao Palace. However, from the vital force of the Zixiao Palace, the replication seemed to be have not been successful. Otherwise, the vital force of the Zixiao Palace would have been more terrifying with the strong Way of Heaven in Untainted Land.

At the moment, Hongjun displayed an extremely grave complexion in the Zixiao Palace. He held the Jade Butterfly of Fate, with all the supernatural power in his body surging up. It seemed that he was resisting something. A strong power fell on his head from the sky that seemed to suppress Hongjun. Confronting such suppression, Hongjun shed a few drops of cold sweat.

Confronted with this strong suppression, Hongjun naturally knew where the strength was from—the Way of Heaven. With his body being combined with the Way of Heaven for many years, Hongjun naturally knew how strong the Way of Heaven was. It was because of this that Hongjun was reduced to being suppressed. All of this was certainly rooted in Minghe. And upon thinking of him, Hongjun displayed a hint of hatred.

Hongjun had fought with Luohou before. Others thought that he had defeated Luohou, but what they did not know was that Hongjun had injured his Foundation and owed immense Karma after winning the battle. Due to that, he had to choose to become a Sage. Otherwise, he would be on the Way of Origin or a Rakshasa, just like Minghe.

After becoming a Sage, Hongjun had a new plan. Since there was no way out, what he could do was go ahead. He planned to combine his body with the Tao. It would cause him to lose freedom temporarily, however, if he planned it well, gradually weakened the power of the Way of Heaven, and then swallowed the Way of Heaven all at once, he could finally step into the realm of the Way of Heaven, which was the Golden Immortal of Fate of the Origin.

Unfortunately, one's predictions sometimes did not accord with the final results. Hongjun's plan was completely destroyed by Minghe. First, Minghe and Evil Separation Red Lotus Taoist had actualized the Realm of the Origin, then Houtu became a Sage, which was followed by the mighty rise of the Human Tribe. Finally, the Good Separation and Selfcentric Separation of Minghe had actualized one after another. In this case, the Way of Heaven was stronger and it heavily suppressed Hongjun. Given that there were no malicious thoughts on the Wu-killing Sword, there was no opportunity at all for Hongjun to be separated from the Way of Heaven.

It took some effort to acquire the heaven-sent opportunity of the damage of the Way of Heaven and the breaking of Untainted Land. But Hongjun suddenly found that even if the Way of Heaven was damaged, its power was unmatched. Now, Hongjun certainly had his own decision, which was to break away from the Way of Heaven. Once he missed that chance, perhaps he could only be a puppet of the Way of Heaven for the rest of his life.
