Upon their arrival, Hongjun and Laozi were immediately drawn to the pure immortal spiritual power of the celestial realm.
This celestial power is rich and pure, making people feel incredibly intoxicated.
Hongjun exclaimed in amazement, "Is this the Immortal Realm? The spiritual energy is so dense and pure, no wonder it is even more powerful than the Primordial World."
Lao Tzu nodded in agreement, equally awestruck by this divine power.
Over these 500,000 years, Hongjun relied on the immense energy of the Hongmeng Bell and the Hongmeng Pearl to continuously cultivate and recover.
He finally recovered his cultivation to the first level of the Dao Realm.
At the same time, both Yuan Zhexian and Laozi's cultivation levels also saw significant improvements. Laozi's improvement was relatively smaller, only advancing by one rank.
However, Yuan Zhexian's progress was astonishing.
He directly transcended from the ninth level of Chaos Saint (Supreme) to become Hongmeng Saint (Heavenly Venerable).
At this moment, Yuan Zhexian's strength had reached an astonishing level.
He was able to easily kill all the powerful beings below the level of the Great Celestial Venerable without relying on the power of the Primordial Bell.
Furthermore, with his own strength, he was even able to compete with a low-level Grand Celestial Venerable, a level of improvement that was simply astonishing.
If one could harness the immense power of the Primordial Bell, even a powerhouse below the Dao Realm would likely be unable to contend with it.
Just then, the Lord of Fate and the Lord of Time and Space suddenly noticed an unusual change in the void, and they immediately looked in the direction of the strange fluctuation.
In an instant, the bodies of the Lord of Fate and the Lord of Time and Space trembled violently, as if they had suffered a tremendous impact.
Their gazes were fixed on the two figures, their eyes filled with a mixture of astonishment and anger, which finally coalesced into a furious roar through gritted teeth: "Yuan Shi, Yuan Tong!"
As the saying goes, enemies meeting are bound to be extremely hostile.
Upon seeing the Lord of Fate and the Lord of Time, Yuanshi smiled coldly and said with undisguised sarcasm, "Hmph! I really didn't expect that you two would still be alive!"
At the same time, Yuan Tong also snorted coldly at the Lord of Time and Space, saying indifferently, "It seems that the painful lesson from back then has not completely woken you up."
"And now, you still dare to stir up trouble here and endanger the Immortal Realm!"
When the people in the Primordial Era and the Primordial Realm saw Yuan Zhexian and the others appear, they were immediately overwhelmed with excitement.
Those who were among the earliest followers of Yuan Zhexian, such as Yuan Haoran, Yuan Ruochu, and Ji Jingtian, were especially excited, their faces turning red.
In their minds, Yuan Zhexian was an invincible being, and there was nothing he couldn't solve.
His appearance will surely turn the tide of the battle.
When the ancestors of the Yuan clan saw that Yuan Zhexian had returned safely, a great weight was lifted from their hearts, and their faces were filled with gratified smiles.
These ancestors knew that from this day forward, the celestial realm would no longer be persecuted by the Lord of Fate and the Lord of Time and Space.
Yuan Gu breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion, "Finally back!"
Then, without hesitation, he ordered everyone to stay in the Yuan Realm and not to go out, in order to ensure everyone's safety.
Then, he flashed like lightning and instantly appeared beside Yuanshi and Yuantong.
At this moment, Hongjun, who was standing to the side, witnessed all of this, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
He opened his mouth and said, "Rahu!"
Yuan Gu noticed Hongjun's reaction, smiled slightly, and explained, "Fellow Daoist Hongjun, I never expected that we would meet again here."
Then he added, "Actually, Luo Hou is just an identity I used when I was traveling in the prehistoric world."
"My real name is Yuan Gu, the ancient ancestor of the Yuan clan."
Recalling the beginning and the beginning, Hongjun suddenly realized everything.
A smile appeared on his face as he said, "I see. Fellow Daoist Yuangu, you and Fellow Daoists Yuanshi and Yuantong have truly put on a perfect show."
"But! In any case, I must thank you and fellow Daoists Yuanshi and Yuantong."
"It was you who completely rescued me from that endless suffering."
Hongjun's words were filled with emotion and gratitude. As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Yuangu.
When Yuan Gu saw Hong Jun's actions, he did not speak immediately, but smiled slightly and returned the greeting in kind.
However, at this moment, Yuan Zhexian's gaze was drawn to the Lord of Destiny as if by a magnet.
His brow furrowed slightly as he pondered for a moment.
Yuan Zhexian took a step forward, facing the Lord of Destiny directly, and asked, "How should I address you?"
"Should I call you Lord of Destiny, or Extraordinary?"
When the Lord of Fate heard Yuan Zhexian's question, his originally calm expression suddenly shifted slightly.
His gaze was piercing, fixed on Yuan Zhexian, a flash of intense killing intent flickering deep within his eyes.
However, this murderous intent vanished in an instant, and the Lord of Fate quickly regained his composure, slowly saying, "I know you."
"From his extraordinary memories, I can clearly feel his intense hatred and murderous intent towards you."
After saying this, the Lord of Fate paused slightly, and then continued, "However, even so, I still want to express my gratitude to you."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian showed a hint of surprise on his face. He clearly hadn't expected the Lord of Destiny to say such a thing.
Seeing this, the Lord of Destiny raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and continued, "If you had completely killed Feifan back then, then spacetime would not have been able to obtain Feifan's Destiny Celestial Origin."
"Without that extraordinary origin of the celestial body of destiny, I could not have recovered in such a short period of hundreds of thousands of years."
“His cultivation level may even advance further.”
"To express my gratitude to you, and also to fulfill my final wish after fulfilling my promise to the extraordinary one and completely merging with me."
"I have decided to completely and painlessly eliminate you as a sign of my great mercy."
The voice of the Lord of Fate was cold and ruthless, sending chills down one's spine; its tone revealed a resolute and decisive nature.
Having said that, he prepared to attack Yuan Zhexian. A powerful force condensed in his hand, clearly intending to deliver a fatal blow to Yuan Zhexian.
However, at this critical moment, Yuanshi suddenly appeared in front of Yuan Zhexian. His face was extremely gloomy. He looked coldly at the Lord of Fate and said, "Old bastard of Fate, do you think I don't exist?"
The voice of the Primordial One echoed through the space like thunder, revealing a sense of majesty and dominance.
"With this old man here, I'm afraid you can't kill this little brat!"
Yuan Shi's words were resounding, demonstrating his absolute confidence in his own strength.
