The cosmic light diagram contains no energy or substance, only a dense radiance. This light is extremely dense, constantly twisting and changing, presenting a bizarre and fantastical scene.
"My darling!"
He shook the scroll, and time flowed within, revealing boundless illusions. If an enemy fell into the scroll, they would surely be deceived by the illusions within, becoming so engrossed that they would not know the passage of time, and their life would be taken away in the blink of an eye.
Of course, besides that, what he values most is that this diagram can manipulate time. If he were to fully activate this treasure and slow down the flow of time within the diagram, and then enter it to cultivate, a thousand years would pass outside, but only one year would pass inside the diagram...
Hu Le simply unrolled the scroll, channeled the power of the Yuanhui (a unit of time) into it, and let it operate on its own.
He himself leaped into it, his thoughts racing, and changes began to occur within the treasure. Hu Le, meanwhile, took the Chaos Bell from his waist and began to silently refine the innate divine restriction within it while holding it close to his chest...
As time passed, three years of primordial chaos had gone by, but Hu Le had already spent three thousand years inside the treasure, and he had already refined another innate divine restriction on the Chaos Bell.
However, at this moment, the magical power he had injected into the cosmic light diagram had been exhausted, and the slowed-down time in the diagram began to quickly return to its original state, gradually synchronizing with the flow of time in the primordial world.
Sensing the change in the Cosmic Light Diagram, Hu Le stopped, put away the Chaos Bell, and jumped out of the Cosmic Light Diagram...
For the next period of time, Hu Le spent most of his time in the Cosmic Light Diagram, either studying the Creation Jade Disc or refining his Dao Seed. Of course, he spent most of his time refining the Chaos Bell...
However, he did not forget the affairs of the Heavenly Court. Fortunately, he had previously obtained a Creation Pearl, which allowed him to create a second primordial spirit avatar to help him handle the affairs of the Heavenly Court and the human race.
The Heavenly Court is doing well; the Xuanmen (mystical sects) haven't yet set their sights on it. Meanwhile, the Demon Clan's Divine Court, which could pose a threat to the Heavenly Court, was previously crippled and is quietly recovering.
The Heavenly Court was peaceful and uneventful, but the mortal realm, especially among humans, was bustling with activity.
Following the Xuanmen's large-scale missionary work among humans, constantly seizing fortune and merit, Mount Sumeru in the West also sent some disciples down the mountain to spread their teachings among humans.
At first, things were fine; everyone kept to themselves and spread their own doctrines.
Especially since the prehistoric lands are vast, and human tribes are not all gathered together, but scattered across various mountains and rivers, they should not have encountered each other under normal circumstances, so there would be no conflict.
The fact that the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) and the West were at peace made some people uncomfortable, especially the clan leaders, elders, and priests of the human race.
Seeing that the talented people in the clan were chosen by the Xuanmen and the West, each household began to worship the Three Pure Ones of the Xuanmen and the two Great Saints of the West, constantly offering up their own fortune and incense.
This not only caused the high-ranking officials to lose their luck, but also interfered with their management and control of their clansmen. It would be a miracle if they could sit still.
Over the years, countless protests have reached Hu Le, demanding that he, the Human Emperor, expel the Xuanmen disciples and the Western lineage from the human race and forbid them from operating within it.
Hu Le ignored these protests, telling them to calm down, which greatly displeased the clan leaders.
Some people were already dissatisfied with Hu Le, the newly crowned emperor, and this incident only made them look down on him even more.
Seeing that the Emperor was unreliable, some people had no choice but to take matters into their own hands...
Of course, they wouldn't dare to confront these two companies head-on; they could only scheme against them secretly.
Humans were, after all, on their home turf, and after employing all sorts of underhanded tactics like sowing discord, the situation indeed changed drastically.
The disciples of both lineages are mostly people who have spent many years cultivating in seclusion on the mountain. They cultivate the Great Dao, not human nature, and they do not learn conspiracies and tricks. Once they encounter those treacherous schemes, how many of them can escape?
In a short time, not only did the Jade Void Palace and Biyou Palace factions within the Xuanmen sects become embroiled in a bitter feud, but the Western faction was also quickly dragged into it.
Later, it is said that the three parties fought fiercely several times due to too many conflicts, but the cause and effect were not resolved, and instead became more and more complicated.
In particular, the disciples of Biyou Palace and Yuxu Palace not only had deep grudges in the mortal world, but also plotted against each other and tripped each other up, and finally even went so far as to Kunlun Mountain.
This has turned the originally peaceful and serene sacred mountain into a bustling place.
The disciples of the two families were practically at odds, frequently engaging in several battles in the mountains.
In the beginning, the Shangqing Daoist and the Yuqing Daoist would step in to restrain their respective disciples, saying things like "harmony is the most important thing among fellow disciples."
At first, the disciples were relatively obedient, but as time went on, they would revert to their old ways and various conflicts would erupt.
Especially after both sides' disciples suffered losses, they quickly learned to flatter their own teachers.
At first, the two Pangu Immortals were mindful of their fellow disciples and scolded their disciple a few times, but as time went on, they took the previous slander to heart.
The two real people also secretly developed some grudges.
The situation is better on Shangqing Daoren's side; his disciples have mostly been in control.
Relying on their large numbers and the fact that each of them possessed valuable treasures, they repeatedly defeated Yuxu Palace, bringing glory to the Shangqing Daoist.
Seeing his disciples suffer losses repeatedly, and knowing that the disciples of Biyou Palace were of mixed quality, Yuqing Daoist secretly blamed Shangqing Daoist for taking in so many creatures born from moisture and eggs, with fur and horns, which unnecessarily lowered the status of their Pangu lineage.
What made him even more uncomfortable was that it was precisely that group of beasts who were able to suppress his carefully nurtured disciples to the point of being unable to lift their heads.
At first, he kept these grievances to himself and did not speak them out in front of Shangqing Daoren.
Later, seeing the increasingly tense relationship between the two families' disciples, and with his own disciples constantly whispering in his ear, he became even more disgusted with the disciples of Biyou Palace.
One day, the two had another big argument over the matter of disciples, and he used his anger to vent his thoughts.
What?
Moisture-born eggs transforming into eggs?!
Wearing fur and horns!
So this is how my disciple is perceived by my elder brother!
The Shangqing Daoist was immediately enraged. If it weren't for the Taiqing Daoist mediating, he would have almost severed ties with the Yuqing Daoist.
However, even though the Taoist Taiqing possessed boundless supernatural powers and could be considered the number one person below the sage at this time, he was not omnipotent.
He might be able to persuade her the first time, the second time, or even the third time, but can he keep persuading her indefinitely?
Later, he realized that he was doing something futile. After several unsuccessful attempts to persuade them, he simply stopped trying. As long as the two of them didn't completely turn against each other and start fighting, he just let them argue.
The Three Pure Ones are all descendants of Pangu. Since their birth, they have been cultivating together. As for brotherhood, there is indeed some between them.
However, the three brothers, due to their different paths and temperaments, were ultimately not the same person.
In addition, although they lived together on Kunlun Mountain for countless eons, the three of them rarely got together to reminisce about their brotherhood.
Having lived together for millions of years, most of the time they were either cultivating their own paths or going out to explore the world. How much time could they have spent together intimately, and how much affection could they have developed...
