The Great Sage Equaling Heaven took out the Divine Punishment. As soon as he took it out, it was overjoyed, as if it had found its long-lost master. A bolt of lightning flashed and instantly pierced through the cocoon of light, landing beside Pangu. "Ha, ha, ha, so the Divine Punishment is yours, big brother."
"Master, is the person inside that cocoon of light my senior uncle? What happened to my senior uncle? Why is he in a deep sleep?"
"Your senior uncle suffered too many injuries and can only sleep. As for me, my cultivation level dropped to the peak of Quasi-Saint due to that battle. Alas, I don't know when I will be able to recover my cultivation?"
"Peak Quasi-Saint? Then Master, you were a Saint before?"
“Sage, your senior uncle could kill him with a single axe. I have no interest in bullying them.”
"Master, this island is too spacious. Why don't you build a palace?"
"good."
A mass of chaotic soil emerged beside him, using chaotic divine water as a carrier and being refined with chaotic divine fire. Chaotic fragments and various innate spiritual objects were added to it. After a long time, three palaces were finally formed. The Great Sage Equaling Heaven waved his hand and landed on the top of Penglai Island. There were two palaces side by side, one called "Palace of Heaven and Earth" and the other "Hall of Divine Punishment". Below the palaces was another palace called "Kong Xuan Heavenly Palace".
The Great Sage Equal to Heaven summoned the Chaos Green Lotus, from which spiritual roots flew out one after another, including gourd roots, yellow bell plums, hibiscus trees, ginseng fruit trees, ten-thousand-year peaches, five-element fruit trees, star trees, ten-thousand-calamity fruits, and so on. A chaotic soil nurtured them, and the entire Penglai exuded endless chaotic energy and colorful treasures.
Wuliang placed Pangu in the Hall of Divine Punishment and led Kong Xuan into the Heaven and Earth Palace.
Kong Xuan seemed very happy: "Master, I finally have a home and someone to rely on. I don't have to be on edge all day to prevent others from attacking me, and I don't have to live a life of hardship anymore."
"Home, what does home feel like? Where is my support?" The Great Sage Equaling Heaven pondered, but found no answer for a long time. Suddenly, a black mass appeared from beneath his feet and spread to his chest and abdomen. The Great Sage Equaling Heaven's face turned extremely pale, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
"Master, Master..." Kong Xuan called out. It's all my fault. If I hadn't spoken nonsense, how could Master have fallen to the brink of demonic possession?
Kong Xuan instantly flew to the Hall of Divine Punishment, knelt beside the cocoon of light, and said, "Uncle-Master, please save Master! Master is about to become a demon! Please save Master! Kong Xuan kowtows to you!" The Hall of Divine Punishment echoed with "bang, bang" sounds.
The cocoon of light trembled, and Kong Xuan understood his meaning: "Foolish child, how can your master not save your brother? Go and wait for your master."
The moment Kong Xuan stepped into the Heavenly Palace again, a yellow light flashed and disappeared in the distance, instantly passing through the barrier and floating above the Great Sage Equaling Heaven's head. A loud bell rang, and an ancient and desolate aura reverberated in the air. After eighty-one chimes, it circled the Great Sage Equaling Heaven several times, then circled the cocoon of light several times, before breaking through the air and disappearing without a trace.
In the Heavenly Court, atop the Lingxiao Palace, Taiyi's face was dark. Why? It turned out that while Taiyi and Dijun were discussing how to attack the Wu Clan, the small bell in his arms suddenly began to tremble restlessly, attempting to fly away. Taiyi was terrified! He considered the bell his lifeblood; how could he allow it to escape? However, after a short while, Taiyi realized he couldn't control the bell at all, so he let it be. The Eastern Emperor Bell immediately broke free of its restraints, bowed twice to Taiyi, and vanished into thin air. Taiyi immediately felt his connection with the Eastern Emperor Bell disappear, and it didn't seem like someone had refined it. Completely baffled, Taiyi was deeply frustrated…
His Highness and his ministers were also puzzled, wondering why the Eastern Emperor Bell had suddenly vanished, and why it seemed to be beyond Taiyi's control...
Shortly afterward, eighty-one tones of a bell echoed from afar. Taiyi thought to himself, "In this primordial world, who else but me can wield the Eastern Emperor Bell?" The Eastern Emperor Bell's original name was the Chaos Bell, one of the three treasures created from Pangu's axe. Could it be that Father Pangu was still alive? No, but didn't Father Pangu perish after creating the world? He didn't dwell on that, because the Eastern Emperor Bell had returned. But it wasn't just the Eastern Emperor Bell anymore; this was the true Chaos Bell. Its body emanated an obscure and incomprehensible aura—if it weren't the aura of chaos, then what? Instantly, the Chaos Bell flew towards Taiyi, gradually merging into him. A message then flowed out: "The Eastern Emperor Bell has returned to its origin; the Chaos Bell has appeared. Whether you can become a saint depends on your destiny. I hope you will be cautious in your actions from now on. The outcome will be clear within ten thousand years."
Taiyi was startled and spoke to Dijun.
"Brother, you must be careful in the future, lest you waste your chance to become a saint."
"Brother, I understand. From now on, I'll have to trouble you with the affairs of the demon race."
The Sun Palace within the Sun Star, and the Sun Pool within the Sun Palace, is where Taiyi secluded himself in seclusion.
This pool is not a water pool, but a condensation of the true fire of the sun in the Sun Star. Ordinary immortals would be annihilated if they touched it, and even a Great Luo Golden Immortal would not dare to touch it without a protective treasure. However, Taiyi was nurtured by the essence of the sun fire, so it was naturally unharmed and could even be used to cultivate.
In the Heavenly Palace, after the Chaos Bell tolled eighty-one times, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven trembled violently, and the black mist rising from below vanished instantly. An ancient mirror emerged from the Great Sage Equaling Heaven's crown chakra, emitting a faint light above the hall. Instantly, time rewound. In the primordial land, in the chaotic space, in the primordial chaos space, the scene suddenly shifted to a beautiful garden. In the scene, a beautiful girl with a haggard face held an unconscious boy, her face streaked with tears, saying, "Liang, I understand, I understand you like me, I've always known. But do you know, I like you too. Every time I see your melancholy and despairing eyes, my heart breaks. Do you know how much my heart aches? I hate myself so much, I hate that I can't help you at all!"
"I will wait for you, ten years, twenty years, thirty years, I will wait for you until the moment my soul returns to the earth."
"Monkey King, I love you."
The girl picked up the boy named "Monkey King" and walked forward step by step. Under the setting sun, the remaining wisps of sunset glowed, creating a poignant and beautiful scene.
"Great Sage Equal to Heaven, I love you!" A thunderous roar echoed in the Great Sage Equal to Heaven's mind. So that Liang was me! I am the Great Sage Equal to Heaven! Instantly, scenes from his past life flashed through his mind: the smile they exchanged at their first meeting, the smile he gave her at their second meeting, and finally, the last time he expressed his love to her. But by then, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven had already fallen into a deep sleep.
How can I repay your kindness in ten or twenty years? How can I ever go back?
“Ke’er, wait for me, I will definitely come back,” the Monkey King called out again and again, his face covered in tears.
The Great Sage Equaling Heaven finally understood the cause and effect, and shouted, "Primordial Chaos Without Limits, Heaven and Earth, Saint Body Completed!" The Great Sage Equaling Heaven's saint body had reached the middle stage of sainthood.
The Monkey King pointed a finger at Kong Xuan's brow, and a technique appeared, named: The Five Elements of Heaven and Earth.
The Five Elements Technique of Heaven and Earth cannot be cultivated without a body that embodies the Five Elements. The technique has six levels: the first is Returning to Emptiness, the second is Celestial Immortal, the third is Great Luo Golden Immortal, the fourth is Quasi-Saint, the fifth is Sainthood, but the sixth level cannot be found.
Kong Xuan was confused, not understanding why his master would cry, nor did he understand who the Ke'er his master was talking about was.
