Seeing the three saints, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Taishang Laozi, and Yuanshi Tianzun, fighting fiercely and seemingly determined to fight to the death, Hongjun Laozu was completely dumbfounded.

What exactly is going on?

Previously, the Great Dao had inexplicably revived. He investigated for a long time but could not find any useful information, so he threw himself back into cultivation.

As a result, he had just closed his eyes and entered a meditative state.

"Boom... Boom... Boom..."

The three saints waged war in the chaos, and the powerful shockwaves of the holy war continuously crashed towards Zixiao Palace, making loud noises that woke him up.

Hongjun Laozu opened his eyes and took a look.

Good heavens! To his astonishment, he saw the three sages, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Taishang Laozi, and Yuanshi Tianzun, fighting in the chaos.

This completely baffled Hongjun Laozu.

I still remember that not long ago, the three brothers called each other "eldest brother," "second brother," and "third brother" affectionately.

How could it be that after I closed my eyes and cultivated for a while, the relationship between the Three Pure Ones suddenly deteriorated, leading to a complete break and a fierce fight?

This is too bizarre!

......

Although Hongjun Laozu wished the Three Pure Ones would break up as soon as possible.

The split between the Three Pure Ones was a crucial step in his seizure of the Heavenly Dao's authority and even the Dao Fruit of Pangu.

However, while he hoped for a break between the Three Pure Ones, he did not want the course of the prehistoric world to slip out of his control!

"Let me see what has happened that has caused the Three Pure Ones to make such a fuss..."

Hongjun Patriarch scanned the area with his divine sense and quickly learned the cause and effect.

"I only secluded myself for less than a primordial month?"

"The incident began when Tongtian's disciple, Yin Zicheng, captured Ji Chang, the chosen one supported by Yuanshi. Yuanshi sent Guang Chengzi to rescue Ji Chang, but Guang Chengzi was instead suppressed. Yuanshi was enraged and took action. For Yin Zicheng's sake, Tongtian broke with Yuanshi and Taishang."

"This... this complete severing of ties between the Three Pure Ones, isn't that a bit too frivolous?"

Hongjun Laozu was stunned.

It should be noted that a very important purpose of the Investiture of the Gods was to use this calamity to widen the gap between the Three Pure Ones and cause them to break apart.

In the eyes of Hongjun Laozu, the Three Pure Ones, who all originated from the primordial spirit of Pangu and have supported each other since the beginning of the primordial world, are of the same origin and share an extremely deep bond.

It will take considerable effort to make them break ties.

That's it?!

Just because of one of Tongtian Jiaozhu's human disciples, the Three Pure Ones completely broke apart, turning from brothers into mortal enemies.

Is their brotherhood made of bubbles, so fragile that it bursts at the slightest touch?

......

"No! The bond between the Three Pure Ones is by no means so fragile!"

"The key to everything lies with Yin Zicheng, the youngest disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master!"

Hongjun Laozu grasped the key to this seemingly bizarre matter—Yin Zicheng!

"What is so special about this Yin Zicheng that Tongtian was willing to break with Taishang and Yuanshi for him?"

Hongjun Laozu's gaze was fixed on Yin Zicheng.

Merit is as vast as the sea.

Great Luo cultivation level.

Hmm? My destiny and fate are completely blank? I can't see through it at all?

Hongjun Patriarch wanted to see through Yin Zicheng, but was shocked to find that apart from the merits and cultivation that Yin Zicheng displayed, he could not see anything else!

"A mere Great Luo Immortal can actually shield himself from my detection?"

"This Yin Zicheng is indeed extraordinary!"

Hongjun Laozu's interest was piqued, and his expression became serious.

He intends to invoke the power of Heaven to thoroughly investigate Yin Zicheng!

......

Chaoge.

The moment Hongjun Laozu's gaze fell upon Yin Zicheng, he noticed it.

"Hongjun has woken up? He wants to find out about my condition?"

"Go ahead and investigate, investigate all you want. If he finds anything, then he's got guts."

Yin Zicheng glanced at Hongjun Ancestor with interest, then turned his gaze back to the Chaos Battlefield.

He felt that watching the Tongtian Sect Leader fight against Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun was much more interesting than watching Hongjun Laozu, that old geezer.

In any case, no matter what Hongjun Ancestor does, he can't possibly see through any of his secrets.

If he doesn't mind being tired, then let him be.

Zixiao Palace.

"Buzz..."

Countless laws of heaven swirled around the body of the Ancestor Hongjun, exuding a majestic heavenly aura, as if he himself had become the heavenly law.

With the power of Heaven bestowed upon him, Hongjun Ancestor's ability to investigate was greatly enhanced, and even the secrets of a saint could not escape his discerning eyes!

However, even in such a powerful state, Yin Zicheng was still a mystery to Hongjun Ancestor, completely unfathomable!

......

Still not working?

Hongjun Laozu's eyes widened to the size of the bronze bells of Laozi's blue ox:

"With the power of Heaven's Dao upon it, how could there be anything in the primordial world that I cannot comprehend?"

"This Yin Zicheng... could he be one of the primordial variables, the one who escaped?"

As he pondered this, Hongjun Patriarch's body trembled.

The so-called Great Way is fifty, Heaven extends forty-nine, and man escapes one.

Hongjun Ancestor knew that even the great trend of the Heavenly Dao in the prehistoric world was not 100% unchanging, and there were still some variables.

Humans are the source of change.

Therefore, Hongjun Laozu has been trying every means to suppress humanity.

He was very successful.

Under his suppression, not only did humanity fail to produce even a single saint, but even the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race were trapped in the Fire Cloud Palace, a truly miserable situation.

Moreover, during the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, according to the plan of the Grandmaster Hongjun, the Human Emperor will be demoted to the Son of Heaven, causing the human world to decline even further.

As a result, just when everything was going well, he saw a possible primordial variable.
