Just as Yuqing Daoist was about to leave with the Pangu Banner, Taiqing Daoist stopped him and shook his head slightly.
"Do not act rashly."
Yuqing Daoist respected Taiqing Daoist very much. Seeing his elder brother speak, he could only put away the Pangu Banner and suppress his anger.
"Why haven't the three fellow Daoists come out yet?" Fuxi called out loudly.
Helpless, the Three Pure Ones rose and left the main hall. They pointed at their feet, and each of them raised a cloud of auspiciousness, which carried them slowly up to the cloud platform.
Seeing this, Fuxi smiled slightly, reached out and pushed up his hair crown, revealing three auspicious clouds above his head. The half-life treasure, Fuxi Qin, hung above the auspicious clouds, and the strings made a melodious tinkling sound as they vibrated.
Di Jun also manifested auspicious clouds, within which the top-tier innate spiritual treasure, the Hetu Luoshu, slightly rotated, radiating boundless light.
Nuwa also manifested three flowers and five auras, and a scroll of mountains and rivers unfolded in the clouds, evolving into heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, and the universe.
This diagram is a supreme treasure of the Earthly Sovereign lineage. It can measure the universe and create boundless wonders. Its mysteries are in no way inferior to the Hetu Luoshu, Emperor Jun's companion spiritual treasure.
Upon seeing this, the Three Pure Ones each revealed their own Auspicious Cloud Three Flowers, each covering an area of about one mu.
Above the head of the Taoist Taiqing, a magnificent pagoda of celestial and primordial chaos stood, emanating streams of primordial and primordial energy. Below the pagoda floated a Taiji diagram of chaotic yin and yang colors, which, as it unfolded, emitted immeasurable five-colored rays of light, illuminating all the heavens and myriad realms, and the universe.
Above the head of the Jade Purity Daoist were ten thousand golden lamps, with thousands of golden flowers and tassels hanging down like water dripping from the eaves.
The Taoist Shangqing manifested a cloud of auspiciousness covering an acre, with three blue lotuses swirling within it. Above the lotuses hung a diagram of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, with a murderous sword hanging at each of the four corners of the diagram. Five streams of energy emanated from his chest, surging back and forth.
The six people faced each other in pairs, wielding their respective innate Daos, which manifested boundless wondrous forms above Qingyun, slowly crushing towards each other.
This is the most civilized and direct form of combat in the primordial world, where each person collides with the power of the Great Dao they have mastered to determine the victor.
...
Over the East China Sea, an endless army surrounded Penglai Island, so tightly that the air was completely sealed off. The overwhelming killing intent made the surface of the East China Sea appear several degrees lower.
At this moment, a protective array was also activated on Penglai Island.
A thick white mist completely shrouded the entire fairy island...
Taiyi arrived above Penglai Immortal Island in his Eight Treasures Incense Cloud Chariot. He glanced at the formation and recognized it as the Mysterious Heaven One Qi Eight Gates Formation, which had eight transformations: life, death, yin, yang, killing, evil, trapping, and extinction. It was quite mysterious.
However, since he dared to come, he must be confident that he could break the formation.
Taiyi withdrew his gaze and beckoned to a courtier.
This person is named Yuanfu Tianweng, and is also a primordial deity. He joined the Heavenly Court in his early years and was granted the title of Heavenly Mandate God-King. He has always been highly valued by Taiyi.
“Yuanfu, go to the island and make that Dongwanggong come out and surrender quickly. Only in this way can Daoguo’s life be saved. Otherwise, we will surely trample this island to pieces, and all the living beings on this island will be reduced to ashes.”
Taiyi decided to try diplomacy first, then force, to see if the Eastern King Duke would see the error of his ways.
"Here you go."
The Heavenly Mandate God, Yuan Futian, bowed respectfully, then, carrying a floating duster, accepted the order and departed.
He arrived alone at the island and loudly announced his name, requesting an audience.
A short while later.
A clear, bright road appeared from the mist, and a guide boy walked along it, inviting Yuanfu Tianweng inside.
Immediately, the formation closed again...
At this moment, Hu Le was holding Taiyi's personal sword, silently standing beside Taiyi. He knew in his heart that with his strength, he was just here to make a cameo appearance.
This was not his era...
Before long, Yuanfu Tianweng emerged from the formation and began to return to report.
"how?"
"Your Majesty, this old minister is incompetent. That traitor, the Eastern King, is stubborn and refuses to submit to the Mandate of Heaven. It seems he is prepared to resist to the very end!" Yuan Futian bowed and reported.
"Fine! Fine! Fine! He's taking advantage of my usual kindness."
Taiyi sneered and shouted, "Soldiers, raze this island to the ground!"
"Here you go!"
The heavenly generals bowed in response.
After they retreated, they immediately led their men and rushed into the Xuan Tian Yi Qi Eight Gates Formation through the Eight Directions Formation Gate.
Rumble!
As the gods charged into battle, the entire Penglai Immortal Island visibly trembled, causing endless waves to surge across the surrounding sea...
After about three days, the great formation still showed no signs of breaking, when suddenly someone rushed out of the formation.
Hu Le took a closer look and recognized the man. His name was Kunyang, the Left-Route Demon-Subduing Marshal appointed by the Heavenly Court.
Kunyang went straight to Taiyi, knelt down, and said with some shame, "Your Majesty, that formation was too mysterious, and the traitor Dongwanggong resisted too fiercely, resulting in heavy losses for us."
"We implore Your Majesty to send another large army to assist us in defeating him."
"Fine! I'll take care of it myself."
Most of the powerful cultivators under the Heavenly Court have gone to intercept the Xuanmen's reinforcements. Moreover, he doesn't know how long those people can hold them off. If they can't break the formation soon, there might be unexpected complications.
"We are incompetent, Your Majesty, please forgive us!"
Kunyang felt even more ashamed...
With a thought, Taiyi took off the small bell from his waist, raised his hand and tossed it. The bell transformed in the wind, instantly radiating five-colored light, and turned into the Chaos Bell, a supreme treasure of creation.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
The Chaos Bell flew to the sky above Penglai Immortal Island and rang three times, its sound resounding throughout the entire East Sea.
The perfectly functioning Xuan Yuan Qi Eight Gates Formation suddenly paused for a moment...
"Oh no! The Chaos Bell! That bastard Taiyi has made his move personally!"
The Eastern King Duke was just at the center of the formation, manipulating the formation flags, urging the formation to change, and assisting his subordinates in killing the enemy.
But the Chaos Bell had only rung three times when the formation almost stopped, which startled him.
While the innate treasures were indeed incredibly profound, Taiyi's cultivation level also startled him.
He began to feel a pang of regret. However, he also knew that he had already boarded the pirate ship of the Xuanmen sect, and while getting on was easy, getting off would be difficult...
However, despite his regret, he couldn't show it on his face, as all the gods were watching him.
After all, they were already on tenterhooks about going against the Heavenly Court. If they were to see through his weakness, their morale would probably collapse...
"Disciple, push me into the formation and break his formation."
With a thought, Taiyi summoned the Chaos Bell, which flew over automatically and hovered above the auspicious clouds above his head, cascading down streams of chaotic energy.
Then, he turned around and gave an instruction to Hu Le.
"yes."
Hu Le readily agreed, and with his teacher Taiyi protecting him, he wasn't afraid of encountering any danger.
Next, Hu Le came up behind Taiyi and pushed the cloud cart toward the Xuan Yuan Yi Qi Ba Men Formation.
After circling the great formation once, Taiyi silently calculated for a moment, then ordered Hu Le to push him to the gate of the formation in the due east direction.
"Alright! Let's go in through this door."
Taiyi raised his hand and pointed downwards. Two golden lotuses rose from beneath the Eight Treasures Incense Cloud Chariot, emitting rays of golden light that illuminated the void. Propelled by Hu Le, they slowly disappeared into the formation...
