Chapter 259: Strong Strike

Just as everyone was discussing the anomaly, with the completion of the Shangqing Sacred Realm, the disciples under the Three Pure Ones cheered one after another, their faces brimming with undisguised joy and pride.

To them, the opening of the Shangqing Sacred Realm, Yuqing Sacred Realm, and Taiqing Sacred Realm not only signified the further manifestation of the strength of the Three Pure Ones Saints, but also represented that, as disciples under the Three Pure Ones, they would possess broader cultivation space and more abundant cultivation resources in the future.

In the Shangqing Sacred Realm, sword intent crisscrossed and sword Qi was sharp; for disciples cultivating the Sword Dao, this place was simply heaven.

They believed that as long as they could enter the Shangqing Sacred Realm to cultivate, their attainments in the Sword Dao would surely advance by leaps and bounds, and their future achievements would be limitless.

The Yuqing Sacred Realm and Taiqing Sacred Realm were the same, each containing different profound mysteries and laws; for disciples cultivating other Great Daos, they were likewise rare treasures.

Most importantly, because of the many changes brought about by Lu Yun, the Three Pure Ones had not yet separated, and the disciples of the Three Teachings were still in a state where they could share resources with one another.

The opening of the Three Pure Ones' dojos meant they simultaneously possessed three sacred sites for cultivation; how could they not be happy?

Looking at the other Great Desolation powerhouses nearby, who were now casting envious and longing gazes, looking as if they wished they could immediately join the Three Pure Ones' sects, the disciples felt even more puffed up with pride.

After all, having become disciples of the Three Pure Ones Saints early on, they could directly enjoy those supreme cultivation resources and opportunities.

What made Guangchengzi and the others feel somewhat displeased was that the Human Dao Faction and the Earthly Faction appeared unusually calm.

However, after thinking about it carefully, the disciples of the Three Teachings fell silent one after another.

Because they remembered that the Human Race had long had a Path of Proving the Dao, and the cultivation resources and environment were no less inferior to the Three Pure Ones' dojos, and in some aspects, even superior.

What made them even more depressed was that they had even contributed quite a bit to the Human Race's Path of Proving the Dao back then! As for the Wu Clan of the Earthly Faction, although they were curious and amazed by the opening of the Three Pure Ones' dojos, there were not many ripples in their hearts. After all, their cultivation did not rely on these at all!

Just as many people were still excited about the opening of the Three Pure Ones' dojos, Jieyin and Zhunti also stood out.

"It is our turn now!"

A smile that he considered kind appeared on Zhunti's chubby face, and he solemnly announced to the crowd: "My senior brother and I will join forces to open a single dojo—the Western Paradise!"

Once this news came out, it immediately attracted great attention from everyone.

After all, although the Western Two Sages were also Heavenly Dao Saints, their influence in the Great Desolation had never been as profound as that of the Three Pure Ones. Now that they were actually going to join forces to open a dojo, and a shared one at that, it made people curious about what kind of miracle they would create.

As for the disciples of the Western Sect, they were all full of anticipation.

In their view, the dojos opened separately by the Three Pure Ones were already so powerful; how powerful would the Western Paradise be when opened by their two Saints joining forces?

Jieyin and Zhunti did not say more and quickly flew toward the dojo location they had previously selected.

The crowd naturally followed closely behind.

Even the Three Pure Ones and their respective disciples followed along, preparing to show some support for the Western Two Sages.

After all, they now both belonged to the Heavenly Dao Faction, and the Dao Ancestor had always emphasized that they should support each other. At the very least, they had to go through the motions!

Furthermore, letting the disciples observe the Saints opening a dojo was also beneficial for them.

Before long, the Western Two Sages stopped.

The crowd looked toward the Primordial Land and discovered that this place was located in the west of the Primordial Land, while the Three Pure Ones' respective dojos were located in the east.

The Western Two Sages paused in the midst of Chaos, their gazes deep and firm, as if they had already seen the glorious future of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

Jieyin Daoren spoke first, his voice low and solemn: "Today, my junior brother Zhunti and I will join forces to open the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, providing a pure place of cultivation for all living beings in the Great Desolation."

As his voice fell, the two simultaneously channeled their magic power, and waves of powerful Heavenly Dao power radiated from them.

They used the power of the Heavenly Dao to begin outlining the contours of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss within the Chaos.

Gradually, the Chaos was torn apart bit by bit, and a brand-new world began to slowly emerge.

This world was filled with an aura of peace and tranquility, as if it were a pure land free from worldly strife. Mountains, rivers, grass, trees, flowers, and birds all took shape rapidly under the magic power of the Western Two Sages.

The area of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss was quite vast, even larger than each of the Three Pure Ones' dojos.

Moreover, unlike the Three Pure Ones' dojos, the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss focused more on the cultivation and purification of the mind. Here, living beings could seemingly distance themselves from the disturbances of the mortal world and focus on their own path of Dao.

With the completion of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, waves of powerful seven-colored divine light radiated from within, enveloping the entire West.

These divine lights were pure and compassionate, as if they could wash away all sin and filth.

"Hum!"

The Heavenly Dao descended with vast merit once again! The Western Two Sages stood at the entrance of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, bathed in the Merit Golden Light, both wearing satisfied smiles on their faces.

Sounds of admiration immediately arose within the Heavenly Dao Faction.

Lu Yun stood in the crowd, looking at this Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, and could not help but fall into deep thought.

He discovered that although the Western Sect had not yet evolved into Buddhism, it already possessed a bit of the bearing of Buddhism, which was quite different from the Mysterious Gate.

Of course, whether it was the Mysterious Gate or Buddhism, they both belonged to the Heavenly Dao Faction now, so there was no real difference.

Just at this moment—

Just at this moment, a melodious Sanskrit sound suddenly emanated from within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. This Sanskrit sound seemed to have magical power, making everyone present feel a palpitation deep within their hearts.

"This Sanskrit sound..."

Lu Yun frowned slightly; he could feel that this Sanskrit sound contained a certain powerful attraction, seemingly able to tug at people's heartstrings and make them unconsciously immerse themselves in it.

Before he could distinguish it carefully—

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Within the Human Dao Faction, many Demons beside the Xihe sisters suddenly leaped out and flew straight toward the Western Paradise.

This move was something everyone found unexpected.

The Xihe sisters immediately observed those few Demons and discovered that they seemed to have had their minds bewitched, flying toward the Western Paradise with faces full of infatuation.

Besides them, even more Great Monsters flew out from the Demon Race! This caused the expressions of the Xihe sisters to change, and they hurriedly unleashed their Supernatural Power, casting beams of divine light to forcibly pull those Demons back.

Yet even so, they still looked at the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss with infatuation, as if they had seen the belonging they had dreamed of! Seeing this, Nuwa's expression also sank, and she cursed angrily: "This Western Paradise is actually capable of making people lose their minds and forcibly converting living beings!"

Hearing this, many people were in an uproar and subconsciously retreated a distance, fearing being forcibly converted!

Zhunti, however, said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Nuwa, do not speak nonsense. This is only because these Demons have an affinity with my Western Sect, so they naturally convert to my Western Sect!"

Houtu sneered and retorted: "Affinity? Hmph, I think it is your Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss that has the power to bewitch people's hearts! Otherwise, how could these Demons be so infatuated and want to fly into it?"

Jieyin Daoren's expression was sorrowful; he performed a salute and said: "Fellow Daoist is mistaken. The Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss is a pure place. If living beings have the heart to seek good, they will naturally be summoned. If they harbor evil thoughts, they will naturally be repelled accordingly. The reason these Demons were attracted is because they still harbor a trace of the thought of seeking good in their hearts."

Nuwa frowned, and Houtu's expression sank; clearly, both were very displeased with Jieyin's words.

After all, did this not mean that those around them who had not converted to the Western Sect were all people with evil natures? But just as they wanted to say something more, Lu Yun, who had been hiding in the Heavenly Dao Faction watching the show, struck directly! "Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss? I see it as an evil land of sin!"

Lu Yun gave a cold snort, instantly drawing everyone's attention. Duobao, Guangchengzi, and the others turned their heads in shock, only then discovering that Lu Yun had been hiding among them all along, yet they had been completely unaware!

Especially the disciples of the Interpretation Sect; many of them had even been speaking ill of Lu Yun just moments ago, and now, one by one, they were so frightened their faces turned pale.

Fortunately, Lu Yun did not pay them any mind; with a movement of his figure, he arrived above the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

His sudden appearance startled everyone.

"Lu Yun!"

Nuwa, Houtu, and the others grew excited.

The Queen Mother of the West, Zhenyuanzi, Hongyun, and the many Ancestral Witches all revealed joyful expressions: "His Majesty the Saint Emperor has finally arrived!"

Meanwhile, on the side of the Heavenly Dao Faction, everyone's expressions changed in unison.

Especially the Western Two Sages.

Zhunti even exclaimed aloud: "Lu Yun, y-you want to do what!"

Lu Yun did not reply at all; his gaze was like a torch, staring at the Pure Land below, and his hands quickly formed seals as a majestic Humanity Power erupted from within his body.

"Human Dao Light, purify the eight wildernesses! Break!"

Following Lu Yun's loud shout, the Kongtong Seal suddenly appeared, erupting with a brilliant golden beam of light that shot from his palm and slammed directly into the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

"Boom!"

A loud sound shook the heavens and earth; under the bombardment of the Human Dao Light, the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss vibrated violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

Seeing this, the Western Two Sages were terrified and hurriedly channeled their magic power, attempting to stabilize the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

However, the power of Lu Yun's Human Dao Light was too formidable; after a brief struggle, the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss finally shattered with a roar, turning into countless fragments that dissipated into the Chaos.

As the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss shattered, those Demon Race members who had been bewitched all suddenly woke up.

"This..."

This scene left everyone present in great shock.

They had never expected that Lu Yun would appear so suddenly, and that the moment he appeared, he would strike directly, forcefully shattering the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

The Western Two Sages were even more furious and alarmed, staring at Lu Yun with livid faces.

"Lu Yun! You actually dare to destroy my Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss!" Zhunti Daoren roared.

Jieyin Daoren also had a gloomy expression and said coldly: "Your actions have violated the Heavenly Dao; you will surely suffer Heavenly Punishment!"

Lu Yun, however, was not afraid in the slightest, sneering as he said: "Heavenly Dao? If that old schemer Hongjun is not satisfied, he can come find me! If you dare to engage in such evil arts that bewitch people's hearts again! Today, I will rid the Great Desolation of you two pests on behalf of all living beings!"

"You!"

Both Jieyin and Zhunti felt their hearts jump with fear.

They actually sensed a terrifying aura of danger from Lu Yun. It seemed that if Lu Yun were willing, he could truly kill them directly!

Inside Lu Yun's livestream room.

The newcomers to the Transmigration Chat Group, who had just been shocked by the Great Sage of the Primordial opening a dojo, were now completely stunned.

They had been watching this grand event of the Primordial World with curiosity and a desire for experience, never expecting to witness such a powerful scene from the big boss Lu Yun with their own eyes.

"This... is this really a human? Big boss Lu Yun is just too strong!"

"It's simply unbelievable; he shattered a dojo opened by a Saint with a single move. How terrifying must this strength be!"

"I finally understand why the veterans worship big boss Lu Yun so much!"

"This is just too awesome!"

Seeing their reaction, the veteran members revealed proud expressions, as if Lu Yun's strength were their own glory.

Immediately, they began to educate the new members:

"See that? This is the strength of our big boss Lu Yun!"

"Newcomers, do you know now that we weren't exaggerating when we bragged before?"

"That's right, follow big boss Lu Yun, and you'll have plenty of opportunities to see even more shocking scenes in the future!"

"Newcomers, learn well!"

"Every move of big boss Lu Yun is worth your deep reflection and study!"

Meanwhile, in the Primordial World, the Western Two Sages were filled with fear and dread in the face of Lu Yun's dominance.

They both knew that relying on their own power alone, they could not contend with Lu Yun at all.

Thus, Zhunti Daoren suddenly shouted loudly: "Dao Ancestor! I ask that the Dao Ancestor take action and preside over justice for us!"

Following Zhunti Daoren's shout, the people all around also suddenly quieted down, nervously scanning their surroundings.

The next moment, a majestic figure suddenly appeared before everyone; it was none other than the Heavenly Dao Spokesperson, Hongjun.

Hongjun's appearance caused the surrounding atmosphere to instantly become even more tense, and everyone's heartstrings were pulled taut.

"Even Dao Ancestor Hongjun has appeared; it seems this matter has blown up!"

"Yeah, should we retreat first? To avoid being caught in the crossfire."

"I wonder how Saint Emperor Lu Yun will respond?"

"He surely isn't going to start a war with the Heavenly Dao side, is he!"

Seeing Hongjun appear, the people of the Heavenly Dao Faction felt slightly relieved.

Meanwhile, the people of the Humanity and Earthly Faction watched Lu Yun's reaction nervously.

Everyone began to worry: was a great war between the Heavenly Dao and Humanity about to break out again?

Facing Hongjun's appearance, Lu Yun did not show the slightest bit of fear.

He smiled faintly and said to Hongjun: "Hongjun, I gave you ten years, and in the end, this is the display you've come up with? These two fellows, you must have specifically sent them to test me, right!"

As soon as these words were spoken, both Jieyin and Zhunti's expressions changed, looking as if they had seen a ghost! (End of chapter)
