Chapter 216: Twelve-Rank Reincarnation Purple Lotus! It is Time to Revive the Earthly Dao!

The reason Hongjun felt this matter was terrifying was mainly because it broke the controllability of the Primordial World.

In Hongjun's eyes, the Primordial World was a domain under his control, and all existence and activity should be under his surveillance and control.

If it were just a simple Spiritual Treasure, even one that formed its own world like the Map of Mountains and Rivers, he would only need to mobilize the power of the Primordial Heavenly Dao to seal it, and naturally, there would be no issue. Moreover, the Map of Mountains and Rivers could not open passages simultaneously in every part of the Primordial World.

Yet, Lu Yun was able to open a passage directly connecting to the Qiankun World from the Heavenly Court through his avatar, and naturally, he could do the same elsewhere in the Primordial World. This also meant that Lu Yun already possessed the ability to travel freely within the Primordial World.

This ability allowed Lu Yun to avoid Hongjun's surveillance and carry out any activities he desired; this was undoubtedly a challenge to Hongjun's authority.

This ability was unacceptable to Hongjun, especially since the one possessing such an ability was a massive variable like Lu Yun.

Therefore, Hongjun felt he must take action to investigate the situation behind that passage and find a way to restrict Lu Yun's ability.

But, what should be done?

Hongjun fell into deep thought.

He considered whether he should send someone to enter that world directly through the Heart-Refining Rainbow Bridge.

But he was also unsure whether the Heart-Refining Rainbow Bridge that Lu Yun had created could determine if the person he sent out was harboring any special motives, and then prevent them from passing.

After much deliberation, Hongjun felt there was only one way, which was to arrange for a certain item to be carried by someone who could already pass the Trial Rainbow Bridge, and have the situation recorded without the other party even knowing.

Once the other party came back out, he would then carefully analyze the content.

As for this candidate...

Hongjun patrolled the area around Shouyang Mountain, and his gaze finally locked onto a member of the Human Race within Shouyang City.

Excellent!

He remembered that this human was the former leader of the Zhushan Tribe, who was later promoted by Lu Yun to be the City Lord of Yuan City.

For someone like him, his loyalty to the Human Race and to Lu Yun was naturally beyond doubt.

It was only because his strength had not reached the Golden Immortal level before that he had been unable to ascend the Trial Rainbow Bridge.

At this moment, however, because Lu Yun had distributed the meat of the Long-eared Beast, he had completed a breakthrough after eating it, and was only one step away from the Golden Immortal level.

Hongjun decided to give him a helping hand, send him a Spiritual Treasure, and first help him pass the Golden Immortal Tribulation to achieve the Golden Immortal level. Then, he would have him bring it into that strange world of Lu Yun's!...

Inside Shouyang City.

The Human Race did not just eat the Long-eared Beast meat that Lu Yun had distributed earlier at will; instead, after some discussion, they prioritized distributing it to those humans who had reached the Mysterious Immortal level.

Because only this group of people could achieve the best results.

And just as they had guessed, many humans who had eaten the Long-eared Beast meat saw their cultivation levels break through one after another.

Among them, a small portion had directly reached the peak of the Mysterious Immortal level, and it looked like they were about to attract the Golden Immortal Tribulation.

This made them all very happy.

Because, as long as they reached the Golden Immortal level before Lu Yun officially went to war with the Demon Race, they would still have a chance to participate in the battle.

And Excellent was one of them.

Dashan was full of anticipation when he suddenly felt his Golden Immortal Tribulation was about to descend, and his heart was even more joyful. He hurriedly said to the people around him, "Everyone, my Heavenly Tribulation is arriving; I will go out to transcend the tribulation first!"

After speaking, Dashan quickly left Shouyang City and found a relatively safe place to prepare to welcome his Golden Immortal Tribulation.

By the time he arrived at a place suitable for transcending the tribulation, the sky was already covered with dark clouds, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and the might of the Golden Immortal Tribulation gradually manifested.

Dashan took a deep breath, steadied his mind, and prepared to face this test.

With his cultivation, the initial Tribulation Lightning could not cause him any harm, but when it came to the later Tribulation Lightning, he could no longer hold on.

Just at this moment, a golden light descended from the sky and landed directly on Dashan. Dashan felt a powerful force surge into his body, helping him resist a portion of the Heavenly Tribulation's power.

This was naturally Hongjun acting in secret, sending Dashan a Magic Treasure to help him pass the Golden Immortal Tribulation.

Such a turn of events left Dashan somewhat stunned.

Immediately, his heart stirred: "Could this be the legendary treasure automatically recognizing its master?"

Although Dashan did not know the origin of this Magic Treasure, he could feel its powerful force and was incredibly excited.

He quickly composed his mind and began to communicate with this Spiritual Treasure to resist the coming Heavenly Tribulation.

Hongjun in Purple Heaven Palace could not help but show a smile on his face when he saw that Dashan had no suspicions about all of this.

Next, it would depend on him going to perform the Rainbow Bridge trial after passing the Golden Immortal Tribulation and entering that world of Lu Yun's!...

Inside the Qiankun World.

After Lu Yun's figure entered this place, he immediately sensed the changes in Suirenshi and the others he had sent here earlier.

Although he had only stayed outside for half a day, under the ten-thousand-fold Time Acceleration of this Qiankun World, a full dozen years had already passed!

With the help of the excellent cultivation environment here, the strength of the Human Race had improved significantly; many had already reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, and a few were even approaching the threshold of the Great Luo Golden Immortal level.

Lu Yun was very satisfied with their progress, but he also understood that such strength alone was not enough to contend with the Demon Race. Therefore, he intended to continue increasing his efforts to improve the strength of the Human Race.

Moreover, in order to complete the task triggered by Tongtian earlier, he also had to improve the combat techniques of these humans.

However, before that, the most important thing was to first open the Legendary Treasure Chest he had obtained earlier.

Thus, Lu Yun called out in his heart: "System, open the Legendary Treasure Chest!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have obtained: Twelve-Rank Reincarnation Purple Lotus!"

Lu Yun was slightly stunned, then immediately revealed a look of surprise, and directly extracted the item he had just obtained.

He saw a twelve-rank lotus pedestal appear before him, with a faint purple light swirling upon it; it was profound and mysterious, miraculous and unfathomable.

This was precisely the Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure—the Twelve-Rank Reincarnation Purple Lotus!

This object was also transformed from a lotus seed of the original Creation Green Lotus. As the name suggests, this lotus pedestal contains the meaning of Reincarnation. It is said to be able to help people comprehend the Great Dao of Reincarnation, enhance soul power, and even possess a certain power over life and death.

"I didn't expect it to be this item; it can just happen to give me a helping hand!" Lu Yun thought to himself.

He had been waiting for the best time for Houtu to revive the Earthly Dao.

Now it seemed that this opportunity had finally arrived! Lu Yun's gaze could not help but cast toward the place where Houtu was in seclusion. Coincidentally, Houtu, who had been comprehending the Earthly Dao, also happened to open her eyes at this moment, meeting his gaze across the distance, and her eyes finally landed on the Twelve-Rank Reincarnation Purple Lotus in his hand!
