A deep anger welled up in Hongjun's heart.

How come he, a dignified Heavenly Saint and Primordial Dao Ancestor, isn't qualified to win you over?

You're nothing more than a newbie who's just begun to attain enlightenment.

But Hongjun still decided to give Lingyun one last chance...

"Measuring the heavens!"

"I'll give you one last chance."

Are you going to join Zixiao Palace or not?

Anyone could hear the threat in Hongjun's words.

This is no longer a simple invitation...

From the perspective of all living beings in the primordial world.

Even if Ling Yun was unwilling, he wouldn't dare to refuse.

The beings of the primordial world seemed to have forgotten Ling Yun's posture just now.

......

In Mount Sumeru.

Luo Hou was practically laughing himself silly.

"Hongjun is actually trying to win over his second brother."

"If he knew that Liang Tian was just an avatar of his second brother, would he faint from anger?"

"That's hilarious."

Hahahaha...

The Azure Lotus Boy beside him also smiled broadly.

The current situation is truly extremely interesting.

Ling Yun would never agree to join the Zixiao Palace, no matter what.

With this thought in mind.

But Qinglian Boy couldn't help but feel a little worried.

After rejecting Hongjun in person.

This avatar of the Celestial Realm is probably going to be destroyed too, right?

But what happened next was completely unexpected by Qinglian Tongzi.

......

In the void.

Lingyun could clearly sense the threat in Hongjun's words.

But will he be afraid?

Obviously impossible!

As for how to deal with Hongjun's furious reaction to the refusal...

Ling Yun had anticipated this situation, so how could he not have been prepared?

not to mention.

The system had recently given him a surprise, which made Ling Yun even more confident.

With this thought in mind.

Ling Yun's amused expression deepened as he sneered.

"Hongjun, are you threatening me?"

These words were spoken.

Hongjun's expression changed slightly.

But before Hongjun could speak...

Ling Yun's resolute voice echoed throughout this world...

"Hongjun!"

"I'm putting my words here today."

"Even if I die, I will never join your damned Zixiao Palace!"

The primordial beings: "......"

Hongjun: "..."

All the beings in the primordial world wore expressions of utter disbelief.

Ling Yun actually rejected Hongjun like that?

Isn't this a bit too aggressive?

Are you out of your mind?

Have they turned their brains into muscles?

The gazes of all living beings in the primordial world swung between Lingyun and Hongjun, their eyes filled with astonishment and confusion.

......

Unlike the primordial beings.

Hongjun's face had turned extremely ugly.

Hongjun never expected that Lingyun would refuse him.

And in such a ruthless way.

This is intolerable!

Hongjun was furious beyond measure!

"Measuring the heavens".

You're really asking for it!

As they were talking.

Hongjun made a sudden move.

"Buzz!"

A giant hand descended from the sky and struck Lingyun.

This was Hongjun's furious strike, its power reaching the terrifying level of a mid-stage Heavenly Saint.

In Hongjun's view.

Even though Ling Yun is a being who has attained enlightenment through his physical body, he absolutely cannot withstand this attack.

He will surely annihilate Ling Yun on the spot with thunderous force, thus displaying the might of his Dao Ancestor.

However.

To Hongjun's surprise...

Faced with such a terrifying attack.

Ling Yun was not afraid at all; on the contrary, he revealed a tremendous fighting spirit.

......

"Good timing!"

Ling Yun shouted "Good!"

As they were talking.

A surge of overwhelming blood energy suddenly erupted from Ling Yun's body.

"Buzz!"

In an instant.

Ling Yun grew from the size of an ordinary person to a giant the size of a small mountain.

"drink!"

Accompanied by an angry shout.

Ling Yun punched out with both fists, which landed heavily on the giant palm that was descending from the sky.

"boom!"

It was accompanied by a loud roar.

The giant palm of heaven suddenly shattered.

However, the towering giant that Lingyun transformed into was also slammed deep into the earth.

"Is he dead?"

Just as the beings of the primordial world were filled with doubt.

"boom!"

A figure shot into the sky from the ground.

If it's not Ling Yun, then who is it?

Compared to before.

Although Ling Yun had blood trickling from the corner of his mouth and his breathing was somewhat disordered, he had not suffered any serious injuries.

Upon seeing this.

An overwhelming sense of awe welled up in the eyes of all living beings in the primordial world.

Is it really that powerful to attain enlightenment through physical means?

Ling Yun has only just entered the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm, yet he is able to withstand a blow from Hongjun?

The most speechless one has to be Hongjun.

...

Hongjun originally intended to kill Lingyun in one blow as a warning to others, but he never expected things to turn out this way.

And at that very moment.

Suddenly, Ling Yun's voice rang in Hongjun's ears...

"Hongjun".

"You've been barking like a dog for ages, and this is all you've got?"

Hongjun: "..."

Hongjun was almost driven mad with anger.

"court death!"

Accompanied by Hongjun's bark... cough cough, it was an angry shout.

Hongjun mobilized the boundless power of the Heavenly Dao, transforming it into a vast sky that crashed down upon Lingyun.

Upon seeing this.

Ling Yun pursed his lips, somewhat speechless.

So many years have passed.

Although Hongjun's cultivation level has increased significantly, he only uses these two moves repeatedly.
