The Heavenly Maiden brought a magical treasure to Hu Le. He looked up and saw that it was a scroll-shaped magical treasure.
The surface of this treasure is radiant, and the inside presents a primordial chaos, its yellow-orange color resembling a mound of yellow earth.
He caught it in his hand, shook it open in mid-air, and a cloud of primordial yellow energy instantly spread out.
"In the past, when I was traveling through the starry sea, I accidentally obtained a piece of the membrane of heaven and earth. Later, I added a wisp of innate Xuanhuang Qi and spent three thousand years to finally refine this treasure, which is called Xuanhuang Yiqi Diagram. Although it is acquired, it is even better than the innate."
It is only slightly inferior to the plain-colored cloud-bound flag, but it has a unique function for protection.
I will give it to you today.
Jin Detian's voice rang out.
"Thank you for the treasure, Master's wife."
Hu Le happily put the Xuanhuang Yiqi Diagram into his pocket and bowed to express his gratitude.
He was in a hurry to return and refine the spiritual treasure, so after saying goodbye, he hurriedly returned to his palace.
Then, he finally spent a thousand years completely refining this treasure.
After refining it, he finally discovered something: compared to innate spiritual treasures, these acquired spiritual treasures, although the primordial embryo deep within the restriction is not innate, are at least much easier to refine than innate spiritual treasures.
Now that he has a reliable protective magic item, he feels much safer and is very satisfied...
And so, time flowed like water, and tens of thousands of years passed unnoticed.
On this day, he was in seclusion, cultivating his magic power and refining the five elements within his chest, aiming to break through to the Taiyi realm.
Suddenly, a celestial maiden came to report that His Majesty Taiyi had summoned him.
He dared not delay, so he stopped practicing his magic, tidied himself up, and went directly to the Tongming Hall.
Upon meeting Taiyi, the other party didn't waste any time and said directly, "I will soon lead the gods of Heaven to conquer Penglai Immortal Island. As my disciple, you should also do your part for Heaven. Go back and pack your things, and be ready to be summoned at any time."
"Ah! Penglai Immortal Island? Isn't that the Daoist temple of the Eastern King Duke? He is also one of my innate saints, so why should we attack him?" Hu Le asked in surprise.
Taiyi's expression was somewhat unpleasant, and he let out a soft snort.
"Hmph! This fiend was clearly a member of my divine race, yet he suddenly switched sides, leading all the gods of Penglai to join the Xuanmen sect of Yujing Mountain, thus ruining the fortune of my divine race. As the Heavenly Emperor, who holds the great fortune of the divine race, how can I allow such a person to continue to live in the world?"
There were still some things he didn't say.
The Eastern King's actions set a terrible precedent.
The previous Three Pure Ones were one thing, after all, they were of noble status, being transformed from the primordial spirit of Pangu, born with great merit and great magical power, and possessing innate treasures. Even if they switched to the Xuanmen sect, whether due to their strength or their status, he could not easily retaliate against the Three Pure Ones.
But what is the Eastern King Duke? Although he has some supernatural powers, he is ultimately just an ordinary innate deity. How can he be compared with the Three Pure Ones?
He even dared to join forces with the Queen Mother of the West and lead his subordinates to defect to the Xuanmen sect, which greatly damaged the fortunes of the gods.
Moreover, Taiyi vaguely noticed that after Dongwanggong switched to the Xuanmen sect, he actually had some imperial aura.
In that case, how could he not understand the Xuanmen lineage's scheme?
This clearly indicates an intention to replace oneself and become the next ruler of the Heavenly Court, or perhaps a plan to establish a separate Xuanmen Heavenly Court to compete with their divine race.
Therefore, no matter what schemes the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) might have, he could not allow it and had to nip it in the bud...
Three days later, the Heavenly Court was ready and, led by Taiyi, began its grand march towards Penglai Immortal Island...
Yujing Mountain.
The Dao Ancestor sat cross-legged on a futon, and upon seeing the murderous aura rising in the Heavenly Court, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Alas! This calamity is unlikely to end well!"
He gave an instruction to the boy beside him, picked up a bamboo staff, stood up, and walked out of Zixiao Palace. He went down Yujing Mountain and found an old ancestor standing leisurely outside the mountain gate, as if waiting for him.
It was him?!
It turns out that although he failed to attain the Primordial Chaos Realm, he did not completely perish.
This time it seems like we made a mistake.
He sighed inwardly again, stepped forward, and bowed: "Fellow Daoist Zhulong, it's been a long time."
"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, it's been a long time."
Zhulong returned the greeting with a smile.
Like Hongjun, Zhulong was a primordial god-demon born in the primordial chaos. When Pangu created the world, he directly abandoned his divine-demon body and entered the primordial world, where he was reborn as the first generation of primordial saints and occupied the source of the River of Destiny.
He once co-founded the Heavenly Court of the Divine Race with the first Heavenly Emperor, Cangli, and was a powerful and awe-inspiring figure. Together with Cangli, he suppressed the primordial world for an entire era.
However, as Cangli Shi and he both failed to attain enlightenment, their figures completely disappeared into the primordial world.
The gods thought that the old Zhulong had perished like Cangli Shi.
But unexpectedly, he has now reappeared and has blocked Hongjun at the foot of Yujing Mountain.
Hongjun Daoist knew that with the old Zhulong blocking his way, he probably wouldn't be able to reach Penglai Immortal Island for the time being.
East Kunlun.
While Old Candle Dragon blocked Hongjun's path, the same thing happened outside Kunlun Mountain.
The Three Pure Ones had finished packing their personal treasures and were about to leave when a boy came to report that Fuxi, Nuwa, and Dijun had come to visit.
The three Taoist priests exchanged glances and shook their heads.
However, since they've already come, we have to see them even if we don't want to.
When the person was brought to the Sanqing Hall, before they could even ask what his purpose was...
Fuxi first laughed heartily.
"Haha... Fellow Daoists, how have you been? We have come here with no other intention than to discuss the Dao with you. We hope you will not find our visit presumptuous."
"Hehe..." Daoist Yuqing sneered, "Fellow Daoist Fuxi, your timing is unfortunate. We brothers are about to go out on business. Let's postpone our discussion on the Dao for another day."
"Oh? May I ask what business the three of you have with us? Please don't stand on ceremony with us," Di Jun said with a half-smile.
"No need!"
The Taoist priest Shangqing touched the Qingping Sword tied to his waist, his face expressionless.
Nuwa, however, was not willing to engage in such witty banter. She raised her hand and pointed outside the palace, and six cloud platforms rose from the ground.
"Fellow Daoists, please."
She immediately took a step and sat directly on the cloud platform.
Fuxi Dijun nodded to the Three Pure Ones and floated up to the cloud platform to sit down.
The three sat in a triangular formation, blocking the entrance to the Sanqing Hall...
Old Zhulong was relatively polite, only blocking them outside the gate of Yujing Mountain.
However, Fuxi and his two companions were not so kind; they actually entered Kunlun and blocked the entrance to the Sanqing Hall.
This is absolutely outrageous!
Yuqing Daoist felt deeply humiliated. He reached out and grabbed at the void, and a chaotic banner appeared in his palm.
This banner, along with the Chaos Bell and the Taiji Diagram, is one of the Three Treasures of Creation, the Pangu Banner...
