Cao Ya has been traversing the [Primordial] Great Universe for many years, and he also holds a position in the Heavenly Court. He has close ties with the Fire Cloud Cave, and naturally, he has learned many secrets.
Among the three thousand Chaos Gods, there were a group of survivors. Some of them still had their physical bodies and had not reincarnated. After billions of years of cultivation, they gradually recovered and even became saints!
Some are reincarnated, but they don't actively reveal themselves, so no one knows about their past or future!
Besides the most well-known Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Demon Ancestor Luohou, and Yangmei Great God, the Eight-Eared, Eight-Armed Chaos Demon Rabbit is also among them.
However, this Chaos Demon God, after recovering in ancient times and gradually surpassing the weak Primordial Chaos, became a Saint and then kept a very low profile, rarely showing his face or setting foot in the Three Realms or the starry sky.
Generally, they travel outside the boundary of chaos, seeking chaotic spiritual treasures or opportunities of primordial chaos.
No one expected that the eight-eared, eight-armed Chaos Demon Rabbit would quietly corrupt the Long-eared Dingguang Immortal!
"Could it be that the eight-eared, eight-armed Chaos Rabbit also knows the plot?" Cao Ya couldn't help but wonder.
However, he misunderstood this point.
The eight-eared, eight-armed Chaos Demon Rabbit simply corrupted many lives and polluted true spirits in the highest three realms and countless lower realms. He didn't want it to, so he let it develop on its own without interfering.
Only when a satisfactory level is reached should one harvest the harvest, integrate it into oneself, and enhance one's spiritual practice.
The Primordial Dao Fruit exists in all directions; without an existence of the same level, who can withstand it?
Furthermore, if it is not exposed, even a Primordial Saint would find it difficult to detect, since it is lurking within the true spirit essence of another life form, making it extremely secretive. Even if one or two realms stronger, it would be difficult to discover.
Chang Er Ding Guang Xian was just one of the targets of his infiltration, all in an attempt to spy on Lingbao Tianzun.
To be honest, even the Eight-Eared, Eight-Armed Chaos Demon Rabbit hadn't expected to obtain the "Six Soul Banner."
This chaotic spiritual treasure is even more powerful than the most precious one he possesses!
For him, it was natural to expose himself and take away the "Six Soul Banner".
Morality, Primordial Beginning, and Spiritual Treasure—the Three Pure Ones, the true lineage of Pangu, received the most abundant blessings! Each person possesses more than one Chaos Spiritual Treasure!
In this respect, although there are many Hunyuan, very few can compare with them.
The reason for the open dialogue was not out of arrogance, but simply because Hunyuan was too strong. He was able to take advantage of the situation and gain benefits while concealing his identity. However, as time went by, when Tongtian Jiaozhu had more free time, he would be able to make a more thorough deduction and understand the truth.
Rather than being mocked by experts of the same level, it's better to reveal oneself openly.
Anyway, the Tongtian Sect Leader was attacked by the Four Saints and had no power to deal with him anymore.
As for the other Hunyuan... his true form has already descended and is not afraid of beings of the same level!
From the perspective of Daode Tianzun, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jieyin Daoren, and Zhunti Daoren, it is acceptable that the "Six Soul Banner" was taken away by the Eight-Eared, Eight-Armed Chaos Demon Rabbit, which weakened the power of Lingbao Tianzun.
Only Lingbao Tianzun was filled with rage, but he was no match for the Four Saints. He could only watch helplessly as the Chaos Demon Rabbit disappeared, taking with it the "Six Soul Banner" that he had placed so much hope in.
Without the intervention of this chaotic spiritual treasure, the collapse of the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation" became even more rapid!
The casualties among the Jie Sect immortals were extremely heavy, and they have been completely suppressed by the Chan Sect immortals!
"Lord Ketu, could you please hurry? It doesn't matter if I get hurt."
Suddenly, the Holy Mother of Ghosts hesitated for a moment, but still urged Cao Ya on.
Once the seal is broken, we must rejoin the battle!
So what if defeat is inevitable?
Should we back down because of this?
“The Hunyuan Method is not easy to unravel, even without serious study,” Cao Ya said, shrugging.
The seven powerful figures, every move they make is in harmony with the Great Dao, and every casual gesture they make is a superior technique!
As a direct disciple of the saint, the Holy Mother of Ghosts and Spirits also knew this, but her concern led her astray.
How could she bear to see her fellow disciples of the Jie Sect either dead or injured?
“Actually, it wouldn’t make much difference if you went,” Cao Ya said. “Even if there were one more Saint, the current battle situation couldn’t be reversed. The combined power of the four Saints is too terrifying!”
The Holy Mother of Ghosts remained silent; she naturally knew what the Star Lord Ketu had said.
But she couldn't accept standing by and watching her fellow disciples perish!
"When did Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal become corrupted by the Chaos Demon Rabbit? Even the sect leader didn't notice!"
The Holy Mother of Ghosts was now able to move her head and looked toward the location of the Long-Eared Immortal with hostility.
However, the Chaos Rabbit has been resurrected, and apart from the leader, who can rival it?
The terror of the Chaos God is known to all in the vast primordial world.
Even if the Chaos God failed to stop Pangu from creating the world, it still demonstrates his immense power!
"Lingbao Tianzun, farewell." Chang Er Dingguang Xian had a smile on his lips, and with the Six Soul Banner in his hand, he suddenly tore through the void and disappeared into it.
Faintly visible was a figure shrouded in demonic mist, which vanished in a flash.
"The true form of the Chaos Demon Rabbit! The Primordial Body!" Cao Ya held his breath. The body of the Primordial Saint was immortal and eternally indestructible!
Despite the fact that the Tongtian Sect Leader was at a disadvantage under the siege of the Four Saints, he was actually not in any real danger.
"Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, I don't want to stay in the Three Realms for too long."
"A seven-star Primordial Saint has appeared in this world, his power overshadowing the heavens and the earth, beyond imagination!"
Cao Ya sighed inwardly. The ultimate level of six-star high-grade seemed good, touching the threshold of weak mixed yuan. However, compared with true mixed yuan, it was still very weak!
"Boom..." At this moment, the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation collapsed, and the immortals of the Jie Sect scattered like clouds. Many of them died and their true spirits were absorbed into the Investiture of the Gods.
Only a very few survived and did not perish. Most of them were wandering immortals from the outer sect. Among the disciples personally taught by the sage, the only ones who could be considered were Daoist Duobao and Holy Mother Wudang.
The Ghostly Mother, who is still being rescued by Cao Ya, can also be considered one.
And then, that's basically it.
The Jie Sect, once known for its "ten thousand immortals paying homage," has vanished without a trace.
All the great figures from all directions who witnessed this could not help but feel a sense of melancholy and regret.
"Save all worldly travelers and bring them to my Western Sect." The Guide Daoist's sorrowful face rarely showed a smile. He took out his Qiankun Bag, opened the mouth of the bag, and swallowed thousands more worldly travelers!
These disciples of the Jie Sect each had their own backgrounds. While the Primordial Celestial Venerable looked down on them, the Western Sect was willing to accept them all.
Having learned from the lesson of the Ghostly Mother, they no longer summoned the attendant, and the Guide Taoist, disregarding his pride, personally disguised himself as a person.
"Excellent." Daoist Zhunti smiled, and with a flick of his Seven Treasures Tree, he held off the Tongtian Sect Leader.
“Fellow Daoist, if they join my Western Sect, they can one day attain Buddhahood. What’s wrong with that?”
"The West is barren and in dire need of manpower. The addition of several thousand capable and well-established immortals is excellent!"
The Taoist Zhunti smiled and continuously unleashed the Seven Wonders of Buddha Light, chanting in waves, which was no less impressive than the Shangqing Sword Qi.
No matter how furious you are, Tongtian Jiaozhu, you can forget about defeating a saint in a short time.
Moreover, the Guide Daoist is not entirely refusing to participate in the battle; there are also the Moral Celestial Venerable and the Primordial Celestial Venerable!
"Whoosh!!" The Tongtian Sect Leader had already used the weapon of enlightenment—the Qingping Sword—but it was still to no avail.
"Boom!" The Guide Daoist raised a Buddhist bead, which emitted a brilliant light that illuminated the ten directions of space and time!
The Shangqing Sword Qi was blocked, and Zhunti Daoist used the Seven Treasures Tree to buy time for Jieyin Daoist.
Yuanshi Tianzun didn't care about these disciples of the Jie Sect. So many of them had died, and the number of names on the Investiture of the Gods was almost enough. The predicament of the disciples of the Chan Sect was thus easily resolved.
As long as one returns to the mountain to cultivate diligently and occasionally ventures into the primordial wilderness for training, having already attained the lifespan of immortality, there is always a certain hope of attaining the weak Hunyuan realm, or even the Hunyuan Dao realm!
"The possibility that Guang Chengzi and Yun Zhongzi are weak Hunyuan is not low."
"However, the probability of reaching the realm of a sage is probably only that of Yang Jian from the third generation."
The Primordial Celestial Venerable had a very high vision. The disciples of the Chan Sect were all quite talented and insightful. However, when it came to the Hunyuan realm, so many innate saints and ancient heroes had not achieved it. Could the disciples of the Chan Sect be an exception?
Having a few people with a certain probability of success is already quite good.
"Buzz." While pondering, the Primordial Celestial Venerable's Heavenly Auspicious Clouds blocked the Azure Lotus Sword.
If Yuanshi Tianzun and Zhunti Daoren exerted considerable effort in their battle against Tongtian Jiaozhu, then Jieyin Daoren, at this point, had much of his energy devoted to saving mortals.
In contrast, the Celestial Venerable of Morality was the one who always slacked off, neither converting anyone nor using much magic power or spiritual treasures. He simply rode the "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda" and moved freely within the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
No matter how much the light of Qingping's sword fell, it could not break through the pagoda.
"Whoosh!!!" The Tongtian Sect Leader's eyes were cold and piercing. He brandished the Qingping Sword, and the sword light pierced through the universe and shattered all paths.
However, the four saints' paths are on the same level, and they are not facing each other directly, so they can easily defend themselves.
Although the Tongtian Sect Leader's swordsmanship was powerful, he was still unable to break free and could only watch helplessly as his disciples were defeated and killed, either lying dead on the spot or being converted by the Guide Daoist.
"Ah!!" The Tongtian Sect Leader roared, his anger now uncontrollable.
In the distance, Cao Ya felt a chill. Could it be that the Tongtian Sect Leader was determined to recreate the earth, fire, water, and wind?
He glanced at the giant tortoise, this holy mother, her eyes filled with tears, grieving for the fall of her fellow disciples.
"The Dao Ancestor should be appearing soon, right?" Cao Ya asked with some anticipation.
In the vast universe of the primordial era, if we were to talk about the strongest being today, the vast majority would undoubtedly place the Dao Ancestor at the top of the list!
Even though Demon Ancestor Rahu, Nuwa, Buddha Tathagata, the Three Pure Ones, the Guide Daoist, and the Great God Yangmei are all outstanding beings within the Primordial Chaos, they are in harmony with the Primordial Heavenly Dao. Hongjun is in the Heavenly Realm and has the advantage of the terrain. How can they be taken lightly?
After all, the great god Pangu perished when he created the world.
Those who missed the lectures at Zixiao Palace may never have met the Dao Ancestor, even those who have reached the Weak Hunyuan stage.
Cao Ya was very curious about Hongjun's existence.
"The Primordial Controllers of the Panlong and Stellar Transformations universes, and the Chaos Universe Controllers of the Desolate Era universe, are all seven-star beings, but what are the subtle differences between them?"
Cao Ya observed, and sure enough, after his roar, the Tongtian Cult Leader no longer restrained himself.
"Boom!" The might of the Primordial Saint spread throughout the entire primordial universe in an instant!
Whether it's the celestial realm, the starry sky, the earth, the underworld, or even countless lower planes, all tremble!
The Tongtian Sect Master and Lingbao Tianzun, wielding the Qingping Sword, traverse the Shangqing Great Dao, spanning the void!
"Today, I will re-establish the elements of earth, fire, water, and wind, and create a new world!" the Tongtian Sect Leader said coldly.
Judging from the fate of the Jie Sect and the words of the Tongtian Sect Leader, everyone can see his determination.
As a Primordial Saint, he also possesses such strength.
If pushed too far, they might really flip the table!
Hundreds of millions of lives were inevitably gripped by fear and dread.
Faced with the destruction of the world by Hunyuan, what could they do besides wait to die?
Even the Jade Emperor of Heaven, even if he was only a weak Primordial Chaos cultivator, felt incredibly powerless.
"Primordial Chaos! Primordial Chaos! Below the Sage, all are but ants!" The Jade Emperor increasingly understood the true meaning of this sentence. However, this step was like an insurmountable chasm, almost impossible to cross!
Throughout the Three Realms and Four Directions, many sages looked at the Tongtian Sect Leader with indifferent gazes, neither speaking out to stop him nor taking action.
This calamity has nothing to do with them. Since the Dao Ancestor summoned the saints of the three religions to sign the decree, and now that it has spiraled out of control, the Dao Ancestor naturally has to personally step in to resolve it.
When the world was reopened, the one who suffered the most damage was not them, but Dao Ancestor Hongjun!
"To create another great universe is no easy task. If we want it to be perfect and able to support the birth of multiple Primordial Chaos beings, we must, like the Great God Pangu, sacrifice ourselves for the cause!"
The Celestial Venerable of Morality, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning, the Daoist Guide, and the Daoist Zhunti all shook their heads.
They would not stand idly by and watch the Tongtian Cult Leader end this great world.
In the midst of chaos, a palace stands, neither born nor dying, forever silent, with only wisps of purple energy constantly swirling around it.
Suddenly, the gate opened, and an old man, holding a bamboo cane, stepped out of Zixiao Palace.
Without any fluctuation of power, the boundless chaos in front of the old man naturally parted, revealing a passage leading to the primordial world.
Hongjun walked calmly, his face expressionless, revealing neither joy nor anger.
Chaotic energy surged around him, seemingly spanning countless light-years, yet also appearing to remain stationary.
Suddenly, Hongjun Daoist paused slightly, and in his eyes, he saw the figure of a Chaos Demon Rabbit with eight ears and eight arms!
"Dao Ancestor! Hongjun!" The Chaos Demon Rabbit quickly sensed it and felt a rare unease.
"The Six Soul Banner is not something you deserve," Hongjun said calmly.
The Chaos Demon Rabbit chuckled and said, "A Chaos Spiritual Treasure? You want me to let go? You'll have to exchange it for the Jade Disc of Creation!"
"Ignorant of destiny, stubborn and unyielding." Hongjun shook his head, took a step forward, and approached the Chaos Demon Rabbit. His sleeves spread out, as if a universe was pressing down on the Chaos Demon Rabbit.
The light of creation followed closely, shattering the boundless demonic mist and cleaving through the chaos!
"Afraid of you?!" the Chaos Demon Rabbit roared, revealing its true form—a gigantic rabbit, light-years tall, with eight ears, eight arms, and incredibly long fur, comparable to a divine sword!
The chaos was immeasurable, perhaps a moment, perhaps countless years. The violently churning air suddenly subsided, and the first to emerge was Hongjun, holding the "Six Soul Banner" in one hand, continuing his journey to the primordial world.
After a long while, the Chaos Demon Rabbit appeared, dragging its wounded body, its face gloomy.
And on the vast, untamed land, purple mist appeared out of nowhere, and a single verse echoed in all directions:
"High above the nine heavens, I sit on my prayer mat and attain the true Dao. Beyond the mysteries of heaven and earth, I shall be the supreme master. Pangu gave birth to Taiji, from which the two polarities and four symbols follow. One Dao is passed on to three friends, and the three teachings of Chan and Jie are divided. I am the leader of the Xuanmen, and the one Qi transforms into Hongjun."
Immediately, everyone knew that the Dao Ancestor "Hongjun" had arrived in the Heavenly Realm.
An old man, leaning on a bamboo cane in one hand and holding the Six Souls Banner in the other, suddenly appeared.
"Dao Ancestor." The battle between the two sides stopped immediately, and they all bowed in respect.
The divine senses swept over from all directions, also expressing a sense of respect.
There was no way around it; Hongjun was simply too powerful. The title of "Dao Ancestor" was truly well-deserved.
“Hongjun Daozu.” Cao Ya looked into the distance and saw the Six Soul Banner, and was taken aback.
Then he realized that the Eight-Eared, Eight-Armed Chaos Demon Rabbit had been intercepted by the Dao Ancestor!
