Chapter 128: Diti: Hongjun Is the Heavenly Dao, Yet the Heavenly Dao Is Not Hongjun

"It seems Hongjun also knows."

"If we now grant the Primordial Purple Qi to Yuanshi."

"Undoubtedly it's a three‑year‑old child clutching a gold brick—bound to die the moment they step out!"

"Only we don't know what method he intends to use."

"How can he both win everyone's wholehearted approval and, in proper order, bestow the Primordial Purple Qi upon Yuanshi?"

The current situation has already slipped beyond Hongjun's control.

Yuanshi's strand of Primordial Purple Qi.

Given the opponent's present state, anyone who dares to take the Primordial Purple Qi and depart…

Within a hundred years they'll be back‑stabbed eight times and end up killing themselves in a void storm beyond Chaos!

As Diti silently speculated in his heart.

Hongjun also began his next plan.

"The selection of a master for the Primordial Purple Qi all stems from the weight of destiny and fortune."

"Now one cannot obtain the Primordial Purple Qi's approval."

"That does not mean future approval from the Primordial Purple Qi is impossible."

"The Great Dao 50, Heavenly Evolution 49, hide one."

"That is the principle."

With that spoonful of morale, the numerous innate divine saints, the strongest of all races, whose debate had been raging, instantly lit up and turned their gaze toward Hongjun.

Especially those who considered their abilities and fortune to be decent.

But innate divine saints and the strongest of all races who could not compare with Di Jun and the others…

…had thought they had no hope.

Now it appears the reality is not so!

"Since under my seat there should be six disciples."

"This strand of Primordial Purple Qi, I naturally will not reclaim."

Saying that, Hongjun flung the Primordial Purple Qi back into the air.

He waved his hand and opened the gates of the Zixiao Palace.

"Hide one and return it to all beings, go."

As Hongjun's words fell, the Primordial Purple Qi shot straight out of the Zixiao Palace and vanished into the boundless Chaos!

"Interesting."

"They actually thought of using this method to stall."

"No wonder within Honghuang Tian Di, the ancestor of conspiracies, the mind is indeed extraordinarily agile."

"They came up with a countermeasure so quickly."

Diti watched the thoughts of the numerous innate divine saints, the strongest of all races, shift in an instant.

A perfect solution for Yuanshi's future acquisition of the Primordial Purple Qi.

Hongjun, whose heart harbored the hidden risk of suspicion among all beings.

His mind was not greatly stirred.

If Hongjun lacked even this bit of ability.

He would have no right to wield Honghuang.

Nor would he be taken seriously, exhaust his efforts, calculate everything, and have the right to erase it!

"Everyone, as I said before."

"The Great Dao 50, Heavenly Evolution 49, hide one and return it to all beings."

"I have obtained six Primordial Purple Qi."

"It is not that only six Primordial Purple Qi exist in the world."

"Except for the one I just released to hide."

"There are still three Primordial Purple Qi wandering across the four seas and eight wildernesses, the endless universe!"

"If you can find any one of them."

"You may come to me and receive guidance toward attaining Dao and becoming a saint."

The Primordial Purple Qi I just released has sparked a considerable hope in the hearts of the numerous innate divine saints, the strongest of all races.

Then what I speak of this time.

Undoubtedly it directly ignited the desire within them!

Their eyes, filled with excitement and agitation,

almost all innate divine saints, the strongest of all races.

Their gaze toward the surrounding living beings was filled with alertness and caution!

"Well done!"

"Turning passivity into initiative, shifting the gaze of the numerous innate divine saints, the strongest of all races, entirely onto the three elusive, untraceable Primordial Purple Qi of void."

"It not only reduces all beings' greed toward the supreme beings."

"It brings the hunt for six people by the numerous innate divine saints, the strongest of all races, down to a controllable scope."

"It also gives Hongyun a near‑perfect excuse to obtain the Primordial Purple Qi."

Diti, watching Hongjun's maneuver and the many restless innate divine saints, the strongest of all races, couldn't help but nod inwardly.

After all, his words just now

directly secured the pre‑ordained Heavenly Dao Saint position.

It was changed to a contest mode similar to nurturing gu.

Although Hongjun will certainly not allow the Supreme, the Primordial, the Dark River, Zhenyuanzi, Jieyin, and Zhunti to encounter any unexpected situation.

But it also gave him some room to maneuver!

In the end, to which side will the allegiance of these six Heavenly Dao saints belong?

It depends on whose methods are more ingenious…

Amid the many precelestial saints, the strongest of all races.

Because of the Hongmeng purple aura, it stirred restlessly, eager to depart.

Hongjun turned and sat upon a nine‑heaven mat, calmly announcing his final step plan.

"Now the Honghuang Heavenly Dao is incomplete; after this preaching ends, this humble Daoist will merge his body with the Dao."

"Complete the missing parts of the Honghuang Heavenly Dao!"

"From now on, Hongjun is the Heavenly Dao, but the Heavenly Dao is not Hongjun."

When these words were spoken, the precelestial saints and the strongest of all races instantly bowed in solemn respect!

He would supplement the Heavenly Dao with his own self, to perfect heaven and earth and benefit all spirits.

What a tremendous fearlessness and sacrifice!

Truly worthy of being the supreme impartial Dao ancestor with the world in his heart!

Earlier they harbored suspicion toward each other today.

They doubted that one was acting selfishly and fraudulently, manipulating behind the scenes.

It was simply far too narrow‑minded!

However, just as everyone was silently reflecting in their hearts.

Diti, meanwhile, sneered inwardly, mocking Hongjun's shameless fakery.

"That remark is truly shameless."

"Isn't this nothing but sophistry?"

"Just as later generations say."

"Your stuff is mine, and my stuff remains mine."

"By analogy, Hongjun is the Heavenly Dao, but the Heavenly Dao is not Hongjun."

"So it can be understood that Hongjun can represent the Heavenly Dao, while the Heavenly Dao cannot represent Hongjun?"

Diti watched the shifting thoughts of many, his mind leaning toward Hongjun's precelestial saints and the strongest of all races.

He silently noted in his mind those who could not see the situation clearly.

Sometimes, these people can also exert considerable power.

With a little exploitation, they might become the final straw that crushes the Demon Race's Heavenly Court, and even the very support behind it—Hongjun.

"The third preaching has already concluded."

"All matters have settled like dust."

He did not know that Diti was scheming Hongjun in his heart.

He began the final step of the third preaching—distributing treasure to all beings!

With incomparable great benefit, he sought to exchange for a reputation of benevolence!

He gathered the fortune of many precelestial saints, while also severing his own karma from Honghuang Tian Di!

"I have traversed the Honghuang for dozens of Yuan gatherings; the heavenly materials, earthly treasures, precelestial spirit roots, and magical treasures and divine weapons I obtained are all in the void behind the the Zixiao Palace."

"If any of you have needs, you may go and take them yourself."

Having said that, Hongjun transformed into specks of starlight, gradually dissolving into heaven and earth!

"Randen, Tiangang, Yuanfeng, Nüwa, let us go."

"Let's see how many heavenly materials, earthly treasures, and divine weapons the Dao Ancestor has hoarded over the years."

The Star Court is indeed immensely wealthy, with all kinds of precelestial magical artifacts, heavenly materials and earthly treasures, everything one could wish for!

If one can freeload items, why waste one's own resources?

Clearly, with just a slight effort, one could obtain numerous precelestial magical artifacts and heavenly spirit materials.

His mind must have been clouded to choose to leave outright.

Letting a large amount of magical artifacts and spirit materials fall gratuitously into others' hands!
