Chapter 338

Similarly, Li Hongxuan had another doubt in his heart.

Why did those Chaos Gods and Demons leave behind supreme treasures in the Primordial World?

And even leave behind inheritances?

Was there some greater secret or scheme within it?

"Master, I wonder who resolved the extraterrestrial demons?"

"This master does not know either; perhaps only the Dao Ancestor knows!"

"Master, do you think it could have been the former Chaos Gods and Demons?"

"Hmm, that is a possibility, but the likelihood is not very high!"

"The Dao Ancestor has always been tight-lipped about this matter; the eldest senior brother Laozi once asked the Dao Ancestor, but was scolded by the Dao Ancestor and told not to ask again!"

"Presumably, there are some secrets within that cannot be known to others!"

"For now, with your cultivation base, Hongxuan, you are indeed not qualified to know these things!"

"If in the future you have enough opportunity to attain the Hunyuan Dao, perhaps you can investigate it yourself~!"

The Sect Leader Tongtian looked at Li Hongxuan, his tone carrying a hint of expectation.

He never expected that in just ten million years, Li Hongxuan would advance from the early stage of Quasi-Saint to the Great Circle of Quasi-Saint.

So many Quasi-Saint powerhouses in the Primordial World have been shackled by their realms, unable to make the slightest progress.

Yet this little disciple, Li Hongxuan, seemed to have no bottlenecks at all.

He kept breaking through realms like a hot knife through butter.

Even observing Li Hongxuan's aura,

it had already reached the limit of the Quasi-Saint Great Circle.

He could break through to the Sub-Saint realm at any time.

Doesn't that mean that as long as there is enough opportunity, attaining the Hunyuan Dao would not be difficult for him either!!

On the contrary, Duobao, in whom he placed the most hope, was not enough to look at in front of Li Hongxuan!

Such talent and aptitude were not inferior to their Three Pure Ones at all.

In some aspects, it was even better.

Tongtian could not help but feel distressed.

It seemed that ever since Li Hongxuan became his disciple, he really hadn't taught him much.

On the contrary.

Because of Li Hongxuan, he even obtained the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell.

It allowed him to get rid of the embarrassment of having no treasure to suppress his luck.

He didn't have to worry that the Jie Sect would be completely destroyed in the future due to insufficient luck.

Calculated this way, this youngest personal disciple was a huge opportunity for the Sect Leader Tongtian and the entire Jie Sect.

The invisible help seemed to exceed imagination.

"Hongxuan, regarding the matter of the extraterrestrial demons, you should not worry about it for now."

"First, safely pass through this Investiture of the Gods tribulation."

"After this tribulation, it will be time for you to find a way to attain the Hunyuan Dao!"

"And all of this can only rely on yourself; how to attain the Hunyuan Dao, this master cannot help you much, so you should be mentally prepared!"

"Of course, if there are those who don't know their place and attempt to bully the small with the big, this master will not be polite and will be your most solid backing."

"Do not worry about the other Saints being unfavorable to you!"

Upon hearing this, Li Hongxuan felt quite grateful and immediately bowed:

"Thank you, Master; this disciple will definitely not let you down!"

"The Hunyuan realm will certainly not be difficult for this disciple!"

"Even if the other Saints want to harm this disciple, what does it matter? It will only become the motivation for this disciple to break through faster."

Li Hongxuan's tone was arrogant.

Even regarding the possible schemes of those Saints, he had no fear at all.

At this realm, Li Hongxuan indeed had the capital to be confident.

Although he was not yet a match for a Saint,

killing him was not an easy task!

Li Hongxuan seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked the Sect Leader Tongtian:

"Master, for this Investiture of the Gods quantity tribulation, have you prepared for some of the disciples to be on the list?"

"And do you know that many Jie Sect disciples are secretly colluding with the Chan Sect and the Western Sect?"

"If these internal troubles are not resolved as soon as possible, then when the real tribulation comes, they might harm the disciples loyal to the Jie Sect."

"This matter must be guarded against!"

"Hongxuan, what do you think should be done next?"

The Sect Leader Tongtian was thoughtful and instead looked deeply at Li Hongxuan, asking.

Li Hongxuan was about to respond, but seemingly thinking of something, he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

"Master, this disciple thinks you should discuss it thoroughly with the eldest senior brother Duobao!"

Li Hongxuan was now the Ziwei Great Emperor of the Heavenly Court and was already entangled in worldly affairs.

If he were to be entangled in the affairs of the Jie Sect, wouldn't that be even more troublesome?

He was devoted to the Great Dao of Eternal Immortality and was not interested in power struggles.

Looking at the Sect Leader Tongtian's appearance, he seemed to intend for him to inherit the affairs of the Jie Sect in the future.

Although this could allow him to control the power of a sect, it was not what he wanted.

Instead, it would cause him to fall deeper and deeper into schemes and plans.

How would he have time to cultivate the Great Dao of Eternal Immortality!

Furthermore.

Duobao seemed very keen on these things; wouldn't it be better to let him worry about these matters!

If Li Hongxuan took away what should have belonged to Duobao, causing him to have second thoughts,

and like in the original fate, he ran to the West to become a Buddha and an enemy of the Jie Sect, wouldn't that be even worse?

Although Li Hongxuan was not afraid, it would be very troublesome.

It was not the ending he wanted.

To avoid Duobao becoming that "hypocritical and insidious" Western Buddha in the future, it would be better to let him continue being a "caring for junior brothers, friendly to fellow disciples" Jie Sect eldest senior brother!

With Duobao's ability, under his management,

the Jie Sect might not necessarily decline.

In fact, in some aspects, he was more suitable for these twists and turns than the Sect Leader Tongtian!

Making Duobao one of his own was much better than making him an enemy.

Anyway, for Li Hongxuan, even being the Deputy Sect Leader of the Jie Sect had no attraction at all.

Attaining the Hunyuan Dao, attaining the Dao of Heaven, and even achieving eternal immortality were what he longed for most.

Mere power, what did that count for!

As long as one has absolute invincible strength, mere power can be obtained easily!

Seeming to see Li Hongxuan's determination, the Sect Leader Tongtian sighed:

"Fine, since your ambition does not lie here, this master will not force you."

"This is also good; as long as you can successfully attain the Hunyuan Dao and be transcendent, you probably won't look down upon mere Jie Sect power!"

"Master, you flatter me!"

"Master, just now while listening to the Dao, this disciple accidentally calculated that Senior Sister Guiling is in danger of having her form and spirit destroyed; I wonder if Master has a way to save her?"

Sure enough, the Sect Leader Tongtian was not surprised upon hearing this.

It seems he had long discovered the fate of the Holy Mother of Guiling.

But why didn't he save her in time?

The Sect Leader Tongtian is known for being able to intercept a glimmer of life from the heavens; could he not save the Holy Mother of Guiling?

Or were there other reasons?

"Hongxuan, can you save her? This tribulation of Guiling is a death tribulation; she can only rely on herself to save herself."

"If others forcibly interfere, things might get even worse!"
