After laughing loudly, Hu Le slowly said, "Fellow Daoist, before I became Pangu, you three Pure Ones were all Pangu. Why is the Xuanhuang Pagoda yours alone?"
He had now understood everything and naturally knew the cause and effect.
The Three Pure Ones fell silent upon hearing this.
They all know why.
It's just that Laozi was born before the other two and is the head of the Three Pure Ones.
It is not that Laozi became the head of the Three Pure Ones because he possessed the Xuanhuang Pagoda, but rather that he was the head of the Three Pure Ones in order to possess the Xuanhuang Pagoda.
This is destiny, and it is the result of the workings of fate that has brought about this situation...
Seeing that Laozi remained silent, Hu Le continued, "That's right. It seems that you all know the reason behind this. Back then, you were the head of the Three Pure Ones of Pangu, which is why you received the favor of the Xuanhuang Pagoda."
"Now that your cultivation is no longer the strongest in the Pangu lineage, the Xuanhuang Pagoda should no longer belong to you, and is in danger of being lost..."
At this point, a smile appeared on Hu Le's lips.
Laozi's expression was solemn; he knew full well that what Hu Le said was true.
He was able to possess the Xuanhuang Pagoda because of his supreme position in the Pangu lineage.
But now, as time goes by, fate has changed.
Hu Le looked at Laozi and continued, "Now that you are no longer the strongest of the Pangu lineage, the Xuanhuang Pagoda will naturally choose a more suitable master."
After speaking, Hu Le's gaze swept over Yuanshi Tianzun and the others, seemingly waiting for their reaction.
He didn't explain some things too clearly.
As the world changes and fortunes shift, Hu Le is now the strongest person in the Pangu lineage in terms of cultivation and strength, and is rightfully entitled to wield one of the strongest treasures of the Pangu lineage.
Pangu and the Three Pure Ones remained silent, as did Jieyin, Zhunti, and Nuwa.
Hongjun Laozu laughed and said, "Perhaps the Xuanhuang Pagoda has been displaced and you have temporarily obtained it."
However, you shouldn't be too complacent. To truly wield this treasure, you must undergo a tribulation before you can fulfill your destiny.
"Oh?" Hu Le turned to look at Hongjun Ancestor and said with a smile, "Well, in your opinion, this calamity should befall you?"
"It's good that you understand!" Ancestor Hongjun nodded.
"Very well! If this is fate, then who am I to fear? You may all come at me!"
Hu Le, however, was not afraid at all. After laughing, he suddenly picked up the Hongmeng Bell and shook it violently.
"clang!"
A bell tolled like thunder.
The Xuanhuang Pagoda inside the Hongmeng Bell also trembled billions of times.
Laozi's expression changed drastically, turning completely white, and he lost all connection with the Xuanhuang Pagoda.
It turned out that just a moment ago, Hu Le had already activated the Hongmeng Bell with all his might, shattering the primordial spirit imprint left by the Supreme Lord Laozi inside the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda.
From then on, the Xuanhuang Pagoda no longer belonged to him.
Seeing Laozi's expression, the other saints nearby almost simultaneously realized what had happened.
Just then, all the saints turned their gazes to the Primordial Bell, their eyes flashing with intense light.
"Fellow Daoist, be careful!"
With a soft shout, Hongjun Laozu waved his bamboo staff, which transformed into a sharp green light that struck Hu Le's face.
His strike was as swift as lightning, carrying boundless power.
Seeing this, the other sages attacked almost simultaneously, each unleashing their strongest divine powers to strike at Hu Le.
In an instant, a terrifying pressure filled the chaos, making it hard to breathe.
However, in this tense moment, the Tongtian Sect Leader became an exception.
Instead of attacking Hu Le like the others, he formed hand seals and unleashed the Four Swords of Zhuxian.
Four sword lights shot into the sky, weaving into a magnificent sword net in the air, and slashed straight towards Yuanshi Tianzun.
The Primordial Celestial Venerable was greatly alarmed and hurriedly shook the Pangu Banner, releasing several beams of chaotic sword light in an attempt to block the attack of the Tongtian Sect Master.
However, the Zhuxian Sword Qi of the Tongtian Sect Master was too fierce, instantly turning the Chaos Sword Light released by the Primordial Heavenly Lord into nothingness.
"Tongtian! Have you gone mad? Why don't you take this opportunity to seize the Xuanhuang Pagoda, instead of bothering me?"
The Primordial Celestial Venerable, his face full of anger, shouted loudly.
The Tongtian Sect Leader sneered, "Hmph! Yuanshi, the feud between us has a long history, and today is the perfect day to settle it!"
Having said that, a look appeared on his face that said he could give up the Xuanhuang Tower, but the Primordial Celestial Venerable must die. He continued to urge the Zhuxian Sword Qi, relentlessly slaying the Primordial Celestial Venerable.
Seeing this, Yuanshi Tianzun had no choice but to go mad along with Tongtian Jiaozhu and raise the Pangu Banner to fight back.
The two clashed, their sword energy crisscrossing as they exchanged blows, the battlefield constantly shifting as they fought their way into the depths of chaos.
On the other side, led by Hongjun Laozu, the five saints Taishang, Nuwa, Jieyin and Zhunti launched a siege against Hu Le.
Hu Le stood calmly in place, holding the Primordial Bell above his head, which released wisps of primordial purple energy to protect himself.
Below the Hongmeng Bell, a Xuanhuang Pagoda hangs, rising and falling under the wash of cloud light.
At the same time, he held the Xuanhuang Diagram in one hand, releasing countless rays of divine light, and with the other hand, he wielded a bamboo staff, flying up and down to defend against the siege of the saints.
Despite being besieged by four sages, Hu Le remained relaxed and at ease.
After the attacks of all the saints were neutralized, a beam of clear light appeared above Hu Le's auspicious cloud.
This clear light, like a nimble dragon, continuously swept around the Xuanhuang Pagoda and gradually seeped into its interior.
Upon witnessing this scene, the saints felt a pang of anxiety.
They naturally understood Hu Le's intention; he had actually managed to refine a spiritual treasure while being besieged by the crowd!
The saints' expressions changed slightly. They felt insulted and slighted, and a surge of anger welled up in their hearts.
But they also realized that Hu Le was so bold because he was confident he could handle their attacks.
After all, Hu Le's cultivation level was not only a notch higher, but the treasure he wielded was also far too powerful.
At this moment, the saints were filled with helplessness and had no choice but to launch an even more ferocious attack.
Hu Le was surrounded by primordial purple energy, with primordial yellow energy flowing endlessly, his whole being enveloped in a hazy glow.
Even though the attacks from the saints were like a tidal wave, each wave stronger than the last, they never managed to get close to him, let alone interrupt his refining of the spiritual treasure.
All the saints unleashed their divine powers and magical treasures, attacking Hu Le for hundreds of breaths in one go.
Seeing that the pure energy released by Hu Le had already occupied most of the Xuanhuang Tower, it seemed that the refining process was going very smoothly.
He himself remained as steadfast as a rock...
At this moment, in the primordial world, outside the city of Bianliang.
The disciples of the four religions are still facing off from afar.
They seemed to be waiting for the various religious leaders and saints to determine the victor.
At this moment, Guan Kong was sitting on a twelfth-grade pure white lotus, his eyes slightly closed, silently circulating his primordial spirit to temper the Primordial Dao Fruit within his body.
She had a premonition that achieving the Primordial Chaos was just around the corner...
