Chapter 13: Roaming the Primordial World, Hongjun
【You have successfully opened up the Martial Dao Great World, you have gained verification, your mastery of the Martial Dao Law has received a slight increase!】
Wisps of faint life aura emanate; after a stretch of time, living beings will be born within the Martial Dao Great World!
In a hundred years' work, Yinyang and Qiankun have also finished sorting through their insights from the Dao discussion.
Zhu Qingyun has obtained the status of Master of Luck of the Primordial World; with the three's luck linked, Yinyang and Qiankun have also smoothly eliminated the Primordial World's rejection!
Moreover, loving the house and its crow, the entire world transmits a sense of closeness toward them.
This feeling is one they have never had before; therefore, the two stirred with the thought of comprehending the Primordial World's Dao principles.
And Zhu Qingyun, ever since his birth, has always stayed on Zhutian Island; this advancement has already reached the limit of the current time node.
Thus, the three hit it off immediately, choosing to travel together, agreeing to roam the Primordial World.
Leaving Zhutian Island, Zhu Qingyun only feels a strong sudden impulse coming from the center of the Primordial World!
The center of the Primordial World is where Mount Buzhou lies; Yinyang and Qiankun were previously rejected by the Primordial World, and though they explored many places in the Primordial World, they had never gone to Mount Buzhou! Because at this time Mount Buzhou still retains an extremely terrifying Pangu pressure; they themselves are existences slain by Pangu, so how would they dare approach Mount Buzhou? As for now, first, because the two are linked in luck with Zhu Qingyun, they also count as darlings of heaven and earth; second, after refining the Grandmist Purple Qi, they are already undying and indestructible, so naturally they also want to go explore Mount Buzhou.
At present, the three leave Zhutian Island, led by Zhu Qingyun, following the sensing in their hearts toward Mount Buzhou's direction, streaking away as rainbows.
Only the three did not notice that as they departed, a wisp of faint airflow flashed past, then fled toward the southeast direction.
It is precisely the small means Hongjun left behind taking effect earlier! ……
This is a continuous mountain range, and amid the mountains stands a towering peak soaring into the clouds, its name Yujing!
Above are Yujing Golden Bright Seven Yins Mysterious Measure, Purple Tenuity Upper Palace; within are Three Mists Shen Yao; the mountain's eight directions naturally produce seven treasure trees, one each in the four directions, seven treasures filling eight directions, covering the heavens, colors spanning the three realms, above them the Daluo Heaven! Purple Tenuity Upper Palace, a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, later renamed by Hongjun as Purple Heaven Palace!
At this time in Purple Heaven Palace, Hongjun has been comprehending the Immortal Dao since Yangmei Daoren left ten years ago, seeking the opportunity for the Three Corpses to merge into one.
Yet at this moment, a strand of immortal spirit aura unique to Hongjun flies over, startling Hongjun awake from his Dao comprehension.
"Have Yinyang and Qiankun left that spiritual treasure incarnation body?"
Hongjun's eyes flicker; because Yinyang and Qiankun are both top-tier Great Supernatural Beings at the Primordial Golden Immortal Late Stage peak, this immortal spirit aura can only sense whether the two have left, and cannot sense other information.
Earlier the Primordial World trembled, the world upgraded, disrupting Hongjun's plans, making his desire to enhance his own strength even more urgent! And regarding the plan to erase Zhu Qingyun's spiritual intelligence, it has already dragged on for over seventy thousand years; Hongjun clearly does not want to delay any longer.
Therefore, Hongjun immediately rises, stows Purple Heaven Palace, activates the Yujing Mountain Daluo Heaven Seven Treasures Formation, and rushes toward the East Sea at full speed!
"Tianyun Daoren? He will soon become this poor Daoist's protective spiritual treasure!"
Earlier when the Martial Dao Great Dao upgraded to a new Supreme Law, Hongjun naturally sensed it too; as one who also has some comprehension of the Supreme Law of Creation, he naturally understands the power of the Supreme Law! The Martial Dao Great Dao upgraded, and as the Martial Dao Venerable, Tianyun Daoren will certainly also gain enhancement!
But ultimately Tianyun Daoren has only been born for seventy thousand years; no matter how much he enhances, Hongjun believes that relying on his own cultivation having severed the Three Corpses, he can definitely easily suppress Tianyun Daoren and erase his spiritual intelligence! "Chaos Fragment-formed island, top-grade merit spiritual treasure, Three Lights Divine Water, All-Heaven Evasion Formation; gaining so many top-grade items, this poor Daoist's path to proving the Dao will be even smoother!"
Hongjun's path to proving the Dao follows body merging with heaven and earth, my heart is the heart of heaven; the more spiritual treasures he obtains, the more blessed lands of the Primordial World he occupies, the smoother his path to proving the Dao will be! Cultivation advancement has never been what he currently focuses on; if he can now collect over half the Primordial World's Innate Spiritual Treasures, he believes he can absolutely instantly complete the Three Corpses merging into one, prove the Dao and become a Saint! What? Erasing Tianyun Daoren's spiritual intelligence would suffer heaven and earth luck backlash? This Hongjun's luck was never in this heaven and earth! How could this backlash affect me? As Hongjun ponders, with his speed he has long since arrived outside Zhutian Island! If Zhu Qingyun's group had dallied a bit, who knows, they might really have collided.
"Is Daoist Friend Tianyun present? This poor Daoist Hongjun has come to pay a visit!"
When Hongjun was at the Primordial Golden Immortal Middle Stage, he was once blocked by the All-Heaven Evasion Formation; he has a profound experience of this formation's defensive strength.
Therefore, if he can directly enter the island, Hongjun still does not want to waste effort breaking the formation! "……"
But how could Hongjun have expected that Zhu Qingyun had long since not been on the island; he waited in place for about ten breaths' time without receiving any response.
"Could he be in seclusion comprehending the Dao? That makes sense; this child's primordial spirit is only Great Luo Perfection after all; presumably the gains from that Dao discussion have not yet been fully sorted out!"
Therefore, Hongjun quietly exercises his power.
"Is Tianyun Daoren present! I am Hongjun, come to pay respects!"
The sound shakes the entire Zhutian Island; if Zhu Qingyun were truly inside the island entering deep Dao comprehension, he would definitely be startled awake! "……"
Another ten breaths' time, the air is utterly quiet.
Hongjun frowns slightly, suddenly seeming to think of something, pinches a hand seal; instantly, beneath the East Sea, a golden dragon carp is wrapped in a water sphere and flies before Hongjun.
At this moment this dragon carp's body cannot move at all, confined in the water sphere, its eyes full of terror.
Hongjun releases the bindings, then points a finger at the dragon carp.
A flash of immortal light passes; under the immortal spirit aura's effect the dragon carp's form twists, then transforms into a delicate little girl carved from powder and jade.
"Dragon Carp thanks Lord Hongjun for the grace of enlightenment!"
The little girl joyfully kowtows respectfully to Hongjun.
"Rise; I ask you, do you know if that Tianyun Daoren is in the Dao arena?"
Hongjun nods indifferently, expressionless as he asks.
"Replying to Lord, clan elders said this is the Dao Venerable's Dao arena; if the Tianyun Daoren in Lord's mouth is the arena's master, then I previously saw three streaks of light go in that direction!"
The little girl is the aquatic clan descendant of those who absorbed Zulong's blood and transformed into divine dragons before the Dao discussion; she was born just over a thousand years ago, so naturally she does not know the Dao titles of Tianyun and the others.
"That direction is…… Mount Buzhou?"
Looking in the direction the little girl points, Hongjun confirms Zhu Qingyun's destination in his heart.
"However, you call him Dao Venerable?"
