Guan Kong borrowed the Kongtong Seal, sat in the Heavenly Emperor's Palace for a while, discussed the Great Dao of Hunyuan with Fuxi, and then left.
Fuxi saw Guan Kong off from the palace, watching her ride away on auspicious clouds, and sighed in his heart.
As the Emperor of the Human Race, he usually resides in the Fire Cloud Cave. With the fortune of the Human Race and the protection of the Human Religion, he can be considered to be untouched by karma and calamities, seemingly able to enjoy eternal freedom.
For example, in this massacre, all the sects were involved, but the Fire Cloud Cave was able to remain detached from the situation.
However, this also means that everyone in Fire Cloud Cave will miss out on the Primordial Dao Fruit that will be born during this calamity...
Guan Kong traversed the chaos, returned to the primordial world, crossed the sea of stars, descended to the Thirty-Three Heavens, and finally returned to the human world.
Not long after, she arrived outside Chang'an City, stood above the city, parted the dust of the mortal world, and looked into the city.
In the north of the city stands the Qin Prince's Mansion, where Zhao Xi and his family usually live.
Guan Kong opened his Dharma Eye and looked at the Prince's Mansion. He saw that a royal aura was faintly shrouded above the mansion. This aura was like morning clouds or colorful clouds, and it could not be formed by gathering or dispersing.
It's obvious at a glance that Zhao Xi's previously dormant royal aura is beginning to rise, foreshadowing...
She suddenly looked up and gazed towards Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty. Although it was a great distance away, it meant nothing to Guan Kong.
She wasn't looking at the scenery, but at fate.
A pillar of light, formed from the dynasty's destiny, stands tall above the capital. This pillar connects heaven and earth, filled with purple mist, and within it can be heard the roars of dragons and the cries of phoenixes.
This cloud pillar has stood between heaven and earth since the founding of the Song Dynasty.
When the dynasty was at its peak, the pillar of light could illuminate the thirty-three heavens.
When it declines, the pillar of light dims, like a candle in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.
Now, the cloud pillars of Bianjing City have begun to dim, as if they could collapse at any moment.
Deep within the cloud pillar lay an old azure dragon, which looked lazy and exuded an aura of decay and decay.
Guan Kong clearly saw that if the situation in the Song Dynasty did not change and continued like this, the cloud pillar might collapse before long.
This also signifies the imminent demise of the Song Dynasty and the imminent arrival of a new dynasty.
Fortunately, the Song Dynasty was not without a glimmer of hope, and that hope lay with the various regional vassal kings.
If someone among them were to rise up in the future and reclaim the throne, then the rule of the Song Dynasty could naturally continue.
The Qin King's territory was one of the sources of vitality for the Song Dynasty.
As for why his dragon aura, which was originally hidden, began to rise.
This could only mean that Emperor Zhao Ji of Bianjing would likely not last long before his death, thus giving countless potential emperors an opportunity.
Whether these hidden talents can rise to the top and become emperors depends on their own destiny...
At a time when the gods were about to face a calamity, and the dynasty was about to change, Taoism decided to place its bet on the King of Qin.
The reason Guan Kong went to Huoyun Cave to borrow the Kongtong Seal was also for the sake of the King of Qin, who wanted to use the human fortune within the Kongtong Seal to nurture the true dragon emperor's aura for the King of Qin.
However, at this time, Emperor Huizong of Song had not yet passed away, the pillar of Bianjing had not yet collapsed, and the royal aura of Prince Zhao Xi of Qin had only just begun to emerge. It was not yet the right time to hand over the Kongtong Seal to him...
So, Guan Kong withdrew his gaze and went directly to Zhongnan Mountain outside the city. He then built a Taoist temple in the mountain and settled down there, waiting for the right opportunity to come to him personally.
...
Thirty-three days away.
Floating Dawn.
Hu Le has stopped cultivating the technique of transforming all things and has begun to deduce the changes in the future calamity.
Before long, a boy from outside the hall came in to report that the Sage of Heaven was outside requesting an audience.
Hu Le ordered his attendant to invite the Tongtian Sect Leader into the hall.
"Greetings, fellow Daoist."
"Greetings, fellow Daoist."
The two exchanged greetings, and Hu Le gestured for the Tongtian Sect Leader to sit down opposite him.
Hu Le ordered his attendant to present the celestial dew and exchanged pleasantries with the Tongtian Sect Leader for a while.
Then the Master of Heaven revealed the purpose of his visit.
“When I went to Zixiao Palace before, I found that the seal we set up had become somewhat loose. If we don’t reinforce it, I’m afraid that old man Hongjun will break free soon.”
Upon hearing this, Hu Le did some calculations with his fingers and replied, "Fellow Daoist's reminder is quite correct. If we do not take action, Hongjun will surely emerge in a hundred years. We cannot ignore this."
The Tongtian Sect Leader immediately took out a jade talisman emanating from his sleeve and handed it to Hu Le.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to go next due to other matters. There is a restriction hidden in this talisman, so please take it with you, brother."
"good."
Hu Le didn't ask what the matter with the Tongtian Sect Leader was, he just agreed and took the jade talisman.
The Master of the Heavenly Sect immediately rose to take his leave.
After Hu Le and the others left, he immediately ordered his attendant to inform several saints and invite them over.
Not long after, Taishang, Yuanshi, Jieyin, Zhunti, and even Nuwa arrived at the Heavenly Palace.
After they had all arrived, Hu Le began to talk about the Taoist Hongjun.
They all frowned. With the impending calamity, if Hongjun Daoist were to escape, it would likely disrupt their plans and strategies.
So Hu Le took them all to Chaos to reinforce the seal.
As for why the Tongtian Sect Leader was not seen, the sages quickly deduced the cause and effect.
Among all the saints, only Yuanshi Tianzun frowned, but said nothing.
The group arrived at the primordial chaos beyond the heavens and immediately went to the place where Hongjun Daoist was being suppressed.
Hu Le arrived at a short distance away, raised his hand and pointed, and the chaotic airflow automatically parted, revealing the Zixiao Palace standing in the void.
At this moment, layers of light curtains enveloped the area outside Zixiao Palace, with countless golden runes flashing on them, like tadpoles constantly swimming within the light curtains.
Meanwhile, the Taoist Hongjun inside the palace seemed to sense their arrival. He walked out of Zixiao Palace and stood in front of the temple gate, looking at the saints through the light screen.
Both sides looked at each other with indifference, and neither of them deliberately avoided eye contact.
Because this seal isolated the power of Heaven and even spiritual energy, Hongjun Daoist's injuries have not improved at all.
He was helpless against the seal, and even more helpless against the several saints outside.
The two stared at each other for a while. Hongjun Daoist sighed inwardly, knowing that it was not yet time to break free, so he turned around and went back into the hall...
"Alright! Let's make our move too."
Hu Le went directly to the top of Zixiao Palace, sat cross-legged in the void, and sent talismans downwards, which turned into countless golden lights and continuously merged into the restrictions he had set up earlier.
At the same time, the jade talisman that the Tongtian Sect Master had given him appeared in his left hand. He held it in his palm, and after channeling his magic power into it, countless golden talismans flew out from the jade talisman and were thrown into the light screen, merging into the restriction set up by the Tongtian Sect Master himself.
Seeing this, the other sages also stepped forward and each cast talismans into the light barrier...
Meanwhile, the Master of Heaven had already arrived outside Kunlun Mountain...
