The avatar walked up to Hu Le, bowed to the Daoist Zhunti beside Hu Le, and then took a step forward, merging into Hu Le's body.
The immortals and gods bowed to Hu Le and the Taoist Zhunti.
After everyone greeted them, they escorted the two to the reed hut.
Hu Le stepped forward and sat down in the main seat, with Zhunti Daoist sitting to his left.
As the sun began to set and gradually sank below the horizon, night fell, and a full moon, like a jade plate, cast a cool, silvery-gray glow across the sky.
Inside the canopy.
Dijiang pushed aside his hair bun, and auspicious clouds of about an acre appeared on his head. Three flowers and five qi soared into the sky, illuminating the entire night sky.
Jumang and the others also manifested auspicious clouds, which merged with Dijiang's auspicious clouds, displaying boundless light.
In the reed hut opposite.
Seeing this, Hu Le smiled slightly and turned to Zhunti Daoist, saying, "It seems we should greet them."
Having said that, he pushed up his purple-gold crown, and a cloud of auspiciousness flew out, hovering above his head. Three flowers swirled, five elements converged, and auspicious light and auspicious energy enveloped the heavens and earth.
A Chaos Bell hung above the auspicious clouds, rotating slightly and emitting a series of melodious chimes.
Zhunti Daoist smiled, and auspicious clouds appeared above his head. Auspicious light swirled around the clouds, and merit flowed in a mysterious yellow. The divine pestle, which was blessed, hung above the clouds and radiated endless light.
The two of them appeared amidst auspicious clouds, their radiance dazzling. Although they were only two people, they still managed to seize half the sky from the clouds opposite them.
Both sides shone brightly, their auspicious clouds clashing repeatedly...
Jumang saw the two auspicious clouds rising opposite him. He recognized one of them, of course, since the sound of the Chaos Bell was melodious. If he didn't know which one it belonged to, he would be a fool.
Since Daoist Zhunti rarely ventured into the East, and Jumang had been suppressed for so many years, Jumang could not recognize Daoist Zhunti's auspicious cloud.
Houtu Niangniang, with her extensive knowledge, smiled and said, "You probably don't know, but this is Fellow Daoist Zhunti of Mount Sumeru in the West."
Jumang and the others had naturally heard of the name of the Daoist Zhunti.
"It was him?"
"He's just a rogue cultivator from the West. Why does he dare to come to the East and meddle in human affairs?" Jumang said with disdain.
"It's probably reinforcements that junior invited," Di Jiang said, frowning.
Although he had never dealt with those two from the West, they were able to dominate the West and become the source of a Dao lineage, so they must not be simple people.
A person like Dijiang never underestimates anyone.
"This young man is far too reckless. It's one thing to invite outsiders to interfere in the affairs of our human race, but to invite Westerners is even worse."
"Isn't this like inviting a wolf into the house? How can he bear the consequences?" Ru Shou said coldly.
"Hehe... Ru Shou, you probably don't know, but the Western Dao has long been spread among our human race, and the one who brought them into the human race is very likely our Human Emperor."
"It shouldn't be that bad, right? He is, after all, the Emperor. How could he act like that? Wouldn't that be giving away his merits, fortune, and even power to outsiders?"
"Why not? Even if he didn't bring them here, he shouldn't have objected, right?"
At least he didn't issue an explicit decree ordering humanity to resist Western missionary work within their borders.
"Hmph! Such a junior is so reckless. If we fail to overthrow him this time, the great cause of humanity established by His Majesty the Nine-Headed Clan will surely be destroyed by this man!"
"Yes! Qiangliang is right. This time we must teach this junior a lesson."
“Indeed, after we overthrow this Human Emperor, we must also sort things out among the human race. At the very least, we must destroy the shrines of the Western lineage and ban the Western way from the race.”
"That's exactly right..."
Jumang and the others were naturally displeased that Zhunti Daoist dared to openly help Hu Le. They planned to ban the Western Way in their tribe upon returning, to teach those two in the West a painful lesson...
That night, the moon was high in the sky.
Daoist Duobao and Venus arrived together. After exchanging a few polite words with Daoist Duobao, Hu Le invited him to sit down at the lower end of the table...
The next day.
The sky was high and the clouds were wide. The morning sun slowly rose, and the breeze dispersed the thin mist. The sky was already bright.
Everyone put away the auspicious clouds, and the world returned to its original state.
As the sun gradually rose, a strange creature suddenly flew in from the sky.
A middle-aged Taoist priest with an ancient and dignified appearance sat atop the Qilin.
The Taoist priest held a jade ruyi scepter in his arms, his three strands of beard swaying in the breeze, and a young boy stood beside him.
"Brother Yuanshi has arrived! Let us go and greet him."
Upon seeing the visitors, Dijiang hurriedly ordered his men to spread yellow earth on the ground, burn incense, and play music. He then led the group down from the reed hut to greet them.
The Qilin landed steadily in front of everyone, and Yuanshi Daoren, with the help of Baihe Tongzi, got up and dismounted from the Qilin.
The two sides greeted each other with salutations, and then entered the thatched hut...
Inside the reed hut where Hu Le was located.
Although the gods and immortals could not see what was happening on the other side, they still sensed some changes.
Hu Le summoned the Fire Spirit Official and ordered him to investigate.
Soon after, the Fire Spirit Officer came to report.
"Your Majesty, it seems that the Primordial Immortal from Kunlun Mountain has arrived on the other side."
Daoist Zhunti laughed and said, "Haha... I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Yuanshi would be persuaded by those people!"
Hu Le said calmly, "What's so strange about that? Even a Primordial Saint might not be able to transcend worldly affairs, let alone the Primordial Beginning."
Upon hearing this, Daoist Zhunti also sighed.
"In the end, it's all just busywork for the sake of the orthodox tradition, even I am not like that."
Honestly, if one could cultivate oneself properly, no one would want to spend their days scheming and plotting against others.
However, whether for the sake of enlightenment or for personal desires, struggle is always unavoidable.
Some causes and effects are inevitable and cannot be avoided...
"Young friend, aren't you worried at all?" Zhunti Daoist sighed, then turned to see that Hu Le's expression hadn't changed at all in the face of Yuanshi's arrival, and couldn't help but ask with a smile.
Hu Le snorted: "Hmph, we are all Pangu, so what if he is Yuanshi Daoren? He has not yet become Hunyuan, so why would I be afraid of him!"
Hu Le's path of cultivation can only be described as courageous and diligent, so naturally he had no fear of the Primordial Daoist.
Moreover, he had already foreseen everything and knew that the Primordial Daoist would come.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have ordered Taibai Jinxing to invite Tongtian Daoren from Jin'ao Island in the East Sea.
Before Hu Le could finish speaking, a wisp of purple mist flew in from the horizon.
Seeing this, Hu Le turned to Zhunti Daoist and said with a smile, "Tongtian Zhenren is coming; we should go and greet him."
As he spoke, Tongtian Daoren rode Kui Niu to the front and slowly landed on the ground.
"That's how it should be."
Zhunti Daoist stood up and walked out of the thatched hut with Hu Le, heading towards Tongtian Daoist.
After the three met, they exchanged greetings.
"For some mundane matters, I have to trouble the Celestial Master Tongtian to make this trip. What a sin! What a sin!"
As Hu Le ushered Tongtian Daoist into the thatched hut, he smiled and apologized...
