Chapter 841 The Difference Between Saints, Fellow Daoist's Grace of Rebirth!
Inside the Jade Void Palace, the chill that could freeze time and space almost materialized.
The sage body of Yuanshi Tianzun was trembling slightly at this moment.
Not fear.
It was extreme anger, and incomprehensible humiliation!
"Why?!"
"Why is this happening?!"
The roar of the primordial beginning echoed through the magnificent palace, causing even the Great Dao to groan in despair.
He can't figure it out!
He just couldn't understand it!
What kind of existence am I?
One of the Three Pure Ones, transformed from the primordial spirit of Pangu, the Jade Pure Saint who is in charge of the Heavenly Dao's killing and destruction!
Having attained enlightenment after the initial calamity of the Dragon-Han era, he has witnessed the changing of eras and looked down upon the rise and fall of all living beings, making him one of the most powerful beings in this primordial world!
And what is Hongyun anyway?
A rogue cultivator who should have perished in ancient times, a loser who has only managed to survive until now by offering up the Primordial Purple Qi!
Even if he gets incredibly lucky and attains the Primordial Chaos Realm with Gu Changqing's help, he'll still just be a newbie who's just entered this realm!
With his own furious strike, coupled with the power of the Heavenly Dao, the double kill would leave even a newly enlightened Hongyun, let alone Jieyin and Zhunti, who are also saints, severely injured!
But the result?
Hongyun was completely unharmed!
He even pointed at his own nose and questioned everyone in the three realms!
This is simply a shame!
"Could it be that I have cultivated into a false saint throughout these endless eons?!"
The Dao heart of the Primordial Celestial Venerable fluctuated violently, and an unprecedented wave of self-doubt surged into his heart.
He felt that his understanding of the world had been completely overturned at that moment.
at this time.
A faint, timeless sigh echoed through the Jade Void Palace.
"Second brother, you're too attached to appearances."
A Taoist priest dressed in a Bagua robe, who acted without doing anything, appeared silently beside Yuanshi.
It was none other than the Supreme Sage, Lao Tzu.
"Brother!"
When Yuanshi saw Laozi, the anger in his eyes did not subside; instead, it burned even brighter.
"Elder brother, you saw it too! How arrogant that Hongyun is, how overbearing that Jie Sect is! They simply don't take us Heavenly Dao Saints seriously!"
"If this precedent is set, where will the majesty of the sages be? Where will the order of Heaven be?"
Lao Tzu listened quietly, his face as calm as still water, without any change.
Only after Yuanshi finished venting did he slowly open his mouth and say something that completely froze Yuanshi.
“The one who witnessed Hongyun’s transformation was a Primordial Golden Immortal.”
Just one sentence.
Yet it seemed to contain some kind of magic.
All of Yuanshi Tianzun's anger and roars came to an abrupt end at this moment.
Inside the Jade Void Palace, deathly silence fell once again.
A Primordial Golden Immortal!
Yes!
A Primordial Golden Immortal!
Although both are at the Hunyuan level and Heavenly Dao Saints, there is a fundamental difference between them!
A Heavenly Sage's primordial spirit resides in the Heavenly Dao, borrowing its power to achieve immortality and indestructibility, but is also subject to its constraints.
Within the primordial world, they are invincible, but once they leave the primordial world, their combat power will be greatly reduced.
But the Primordial Golden Immortal is different!
They are beings who, through their great perseverance and wisdom, prove the Dao with their strength and transcend the Dao of Heaven!
Their power comes from themselves, from the vaster and more mysterious chaos!
In a battle between equals, a Primordial Golden Immortal can draw upon the power of chaos, naturally giving them an edge over a Heavenly Saint!
This is the fundamental reason why Hongyun was able to withstand the divine punishment from Heaven and his own attack!
Having figured this out, Yuan Shi's expression became even more unpleasant, more disgusting than if he had swallowed countless flies.
He got it.
He finally understood Lao Tzu's meaning.
I didn't lose unjustly.
It wasn't that we lost to Hongyun, but rather to that more difficult and more powerful path to enlightenment!
silence.
There was a long silence.
The chill emanating from Yuanshi Tianzun slowly subsided, but his resentment and bitterness grew even deeper.
"Are we... are we just going to let Hongyun prove his Dao and let the Jie Sect grow stronger?"
Yuan Shi's voice was hoarse and filled with a sense of powerlessness.
"If Gu Changqing can create one Hongyun, he can create a second, and a third!"
"If this continues, will there still be a place for us Heavenly Saints to stand in this primordial world?!"
This is what he fears most!
A single red cloud had already caused him to lose face completely.
If the Jie Sect produces a few more Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian like this, what will the Chan Sect have to compete with?
At that time, I'm afraid even the orthodox tradition will not be able to be preserved!
Faced with Yuanshi's questioning, Laozi also fell into a long silence.
A rare hint of solemnity and helplessness appeared in his eyes, which had seen through eternity.
for a long time.
He sighed softly once more.
"This matter is beyond our control."
"Let's wait for the instructions of our Dao Ancestor Master."
After saying this, Lao Tzu's figure slowly faded away and disappeared.
Only Yuanshi Tianzun remained, standing motionless in the empty Jade Void Palace, his face ashen and shifting unpredictably.
……
the other side.
East China Sea, Jin'ao Island.
With Hongyun's triumphant return, the entire Jie Sect was completely transformed into a boiling ocean.
"The Vice Sect Leader is truly awe-inspiring!"
"Hahaha, I bet Yuan Shi's expression right now is absolutely priceless."
"From now on, let's see who dares to underestimate my Jie Sect!"
Countless disciples of the Jie Sect raised their arms and shouted, their voices shaking the heavens and dispersing the clouds.
Zhao Gongming, the Three Immortals of Sanxiao, Duobao Daoren, and others were also beaming with excitement, feeling honored as well.
The Jie Sect has gained another Grand Luo Golden Immortal!
Moreover, he is a Primordial Golden Immortal capable of directly confronting a Heavenly Dao Saint!
What an honor!
What a fortunate thing this is!
however.
At the heart of it all, the focus of everyone's attention.
Hongyun Patriarch, however, remained deaf to the thunderous cheers and tsunamis around him.
His eyes, which had pierced through the ages, slowly withdrew after sweeping over Kunlun Mountain, landing on a corner of Jin'ao Island.
There, there is an inconspicuous cave dwelling.
At the entrance of the cave, a figure leaned against the wall, idly waving a gourd of wine in his hand.
At a time when everyone was cheering for him and going crazy for him.
Only that person remained calm and indifferent, as if it were none of their business.
Hongyun's figure moved.
He ignored everyone's congratulations, took a step, and his figure instantly disappeared into the high sky.
next moment.
He appeared before the cave dwelling.
The entire room fell silent instantly.
All the disciples of the Jie Sect followed Hongyun and focused their attention on that lazy figure.
Under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of eyes.
Hongyun, this supreme being who has just attained the Primordial Dao and is forcefully challenging the Sages.
He straightened his somewhat tattered Taoist robe, his expression extremely solemn.
then.
He bowed deeply to Gu Changqing, who was still drinking by himself, and performed a very solemn, even pious, salute.
One bow, and it's over!
Immediately afterwards, words filled with boundless gratitude and sincerity emanated from Hongyun's mouth, resounding clearly in everyone's ears.
"This humble Taoist priest, Hongyun, thanks Fellow Taoist Changqing!"
"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for your life-saving grace!"
