Now that the saints have repaired and straightened out the Heavenly Dao, and have once again entrusted their Dao fruits to the Heavenly Dao, they were all taken aback when they saw Hu Le actually opening up a branch of the Heavenly Dao. They stood above the Heavenly Dao and watched quietly.
With the Primordial Bell atop his head, its sound resounding through the void, Hu Le strolled forward, a bamboo staff in hand. As he swung the staff, streaks of axe light flashed, carving out a tributary of the Heavenly Dao that traversed the past and future from the void.
This tributary gradually came to completion, beginning to resonate with the Heavenly Dao, and together they evolved into an infinite future, constantly postponing the arrival of immeasurable eons...
As the tributary opened up, wisps of mysterious energy began to rise above Hu Le's head, transforming into ever-changing, swirling clouds.
The Primordial Dao Fruit in the darkness also began to become more active, gradually becoming enveloped in clusters of Heavenly Dao power.
Once the tributary was fully opened, his entire being, along with the Dao Fruit, suddenly dissolved, transforming into a wisp of pure energy that fell into the Heavenly Dao tributary...
Upon witnessing this scene, all the saints immediately understood what Hu Le was doing.
This is clearly an attempt to break through to the Dao Integration Realm!
They watched intently as the changes occurred in the tributaries of the Heavenly Dao, countless insights flooding their minds, and their previously stagnant cultivation began to show signs of loosening.
As the tributary of the Heavenly Dao stirred up boundless waves, the original chaotic color was gradually replaced by that ever-spreading and expanding pure energy...
I don't know how much time has passed, whether it was a moment or ten thousand years.
The Primordial Bell, suspended above the Heavenly Dao, suddenly exploded.
Suddenly, Hu Le slowly rose from the tributary of the Heavenly Dao with a Dao Fruit brimming with purple aura above his head.
"First there was chaos, then heaven. My path existed before chaos. I am only eighteen years old this year. One year is one cycle of chaos."
Hu Le slowly murmured, his figure becoming increasingly ethereal, his eyes empty and lifeless, and behind him, chaos evolved endless strange phenomena, containing immeasurable birth and death.
Today, he has finally mastered the Dao Integration Realm!
The sages, including Laozi, gathered around.
"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on your further advancement in cultivation."
The Taoist Master Zhunti smiled and offered his congratulations.
In the past, he only addressed Hu Le as fellow Daoist, but today Hu Le has taken it a step further, so he has directly upgraded to fellow Daoist brother.
This is not the fault of Daoist Zhunti.
It should be understood that in the cultivation world, regardless of age, those who have attained enlightenment are always considered teachers.
Now, Hu Le has opened up a branch of the Heavenly Dao, thus proving himself to the realm of the Dao.
This is quite different from the method of refining emptiness and uniting with the Dao transmitted by Hongjun.
Obviously.
He has pioneered a new method of achieving harmony with the Dao, and he has succeeded in doing so.
Even so, Master Zhunti had to admit his admiration...
The saints also offered their congratulations.
"I've only gone ahead of you all; I expect you'll catch up soon," Hu Le replied with a smile.
After exchanging a few polite words, the Tongtian Sect Leader asked, "Brother Daoist, have you managed to subdue that Hongjun Daoist?"
Hu Le nodded slightly, flicked his thick sleeve, and Hongjun, the Daoist, floated out from it.
"Brother Dao, we have a favor to ask, and we hope you can grant it."
Yuanshi Tianzun first bowed and said.
Although they are all Pangu, Hu Le has now successfully broken through to the Dao Integration Realm ahead of the Three Pure Ones, and is far ahead of them. It is only right to call Hu Le "Brother Dao".
At this point, whether they acknowledge it or not, Hu Le had effectively become the head of the Four Sages of Pangu.
Originally, Laozi was the head of all the saints, but now his cultivation level has been surpassed by Hu Le, so even if he doesn't want to give up his position, he has to.
"Fellow Daoist, you're too kind. What is it you wish to tell me about?" Hu Le asked curiously.
"Hongjun is ultimately our master and disciple, so please let us decide his fate," said Yuanshi Tianzun, pointing at Hongjun Daoist.
"You wicked disciple! You wicked disciple!"
"Do you really intend to betray your master and destroy your ancestors?!"
Although Hongjun Daoist's fontanelles were sealed, preventing him from channeling his primordial spirit and magical power, it did not mean that he could not speak.
However, the Three Pure Ones remained unmoved in the face of Hongjun Daoren's accusations.
"If that's the case, then he's at your disposal."
Hongjun Daoist is, after all, the master of the Xuanmen sect. Now that he has committed a serious crime, he should be dealt with by the three leaders of the Xuanmen sect.
As the leader of the foreign teachers, he couldn't be dealt with casually...
Seeing that Hu Le had agreed, the Three Pure Ones all expressed their gratitude.
Seeing that the Three Pure Ones remained indifferent and completely ignored his accusations, Hongjun Daoist's tone softened considerably as he continued, "What exactly do you three intend to do with your master? Are you perhaps planning to kill me?"
Laozi smiled indifferently, "Teacher, you have misunderstood us. How could we be the kind of people who would kill our teacher?"
Upon hearing this, Master Hongjun felt somewhat relieved.
Laozi stopped talking to him and instead used the Qiankun Diagram to wrap up Hongjun Daoist.
Then, with a single step, his figure appeared in the chaos.
Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu also followed.
Hu Le and the others followed.
Laozi rubbed his hands together, and a bolt of divine lightning from the Supreme Purity suddenly exploded, turning a mass of chaos into a paste...
Not long after, as Lao Tzu created the world, a new world was revealed to all the saints.
Laozi and the other saints arrived outside the world. With a wave of his hand, spiritual light surged in that area, and various colored rays of light gathered. In an instant, an ancient Taoist temple appeared between heaven and earth.
Look, the Taoist temple looks just like the Zixiao Palace.
Laozi stepped into the Zixiao Palace, summoned the Qiankun Diagram, and released Hongjun Daoist again.
"You unfilial disciple! What do you intend to do to your master?" Hongjun Daoist looked at the familiar palace and asked in a cold voice.
Laozi smiled indifferently, "Teacher, from now on you should stay here and cultivate yourself properly, and do not cause any more trouble in the primordial world."
"You...you intend to imprison your master here?!" Hongjun Daoist's expression changed drastically.
Just then, Yuanshi Tianzun stepped in and said, "Teacher, this is clearly our filial piety, why do you have to say it so harshly!"
Tongtian Daoren laughed as he entered the hall. “Teacher, you can rest assured and recuperate. Anyway, you have two filial disciples who will surely carry forward your Xuanmen.”
The words of the Tongtian Sect Leader were full of mockery.
It's unclear whether he's mocking Hongjun Daoist or himself...
After all, his Jie Sect had already been destroyed, and he had no part in the flourishing of the Xuanmen sect...
The sages, including Hu Le, also entered, preparing to take one last look at Hongjun Daoist.
In any case, before the end of the era and the arrival of the immeasurable calamity, Hongjun Daoist will have no chance to reappear in the world.
As for the next era, when heaven and earth reopen and the Dao of Heaven evolves anew, the Three Pure Ones may not necessarily release Hongjun Daoist.
"Dao Ancestor! Please take care from now on!"
Zhunti Daoist smiled and bowed to Hongjun Daoist, as if bidding Hongjun Daoist a final farewell...
