145: Breakthrough in both

"I'll deal with those Fellow Daoists from the Chaos Period and that greatest variable, Taichu, after I attain Sainthood."

Hongjun hardened his heart, deciding not to care about anything else or waste any more time, and prepared to directly prove his Dao as a Heavenly Dao Sage.

He had nearly been killed just trying to deal with Luo Hou.

Let alone dealing with the likes of Reincarnation, Five Elements, Yin and Yang, or even Yang Mei—those Chaos Demon Gods ranked in the top ten of the Chaos Period.

If he truly faced Yang Mei, Hongjun estimated that he really wouldn't be his match.

Only by becoming a Saint and leaning on the Heavenly Dao for infinite resurrections would he have the confidence to deal with his former Fellow Daoists.

Only then could he, Hongjun, crush Yang Mei and the others with pure power.

Unfortunately, Hongjun did not yet know that Reincarnation, Yang Mei, and Five Elements, whom he wanted to deal with, had long ago attained the Hun Yuan Heavenly Venerable realm.

When the time comes, Reincarnation and Yang Mei might give him a surprise—or perhaps a shock.

Hongjun entered a meditative state, sitting cross-legged in Zixiao Palace, with twelve wisps of purple qi floating above his head.

These twelve wisps of purple qi were the so-called foundation of Sainthood—the primordial violet qi.

However, the Heavenly Dao's primordial violet qi was not actually limited to nine wisps as Hongjun had preached in Zixiao Palace; there were twelve!

"I shall use three wisps of primordial violet qi to restore my three corpses.

That leaves nine wisps. Perfect. One will be used for my Primordial Spirit to rely on the Heavenly Dao.

The remaining eight wisps of primordial violet qi will be arranged as originally planned.

Three wisps for the Three Pure Ones, one for Nuwa, and two for those two Beggars from the West.

One of the remaining wisps will be used to lure Houtu into transforming her body into Reincarnation, allowing me to control her born Primordial Spirit, Pingxin.

The very last wisp will be used to plot against the Loose Cultivators of the Primordial World."

The twelve wisps of purple qi were arranged clearly by Hongjun.

Of course, this was also the arrangement of the Heavenly Dao.

However, the Heavenly Dao's original plan was to keep three wisps of purple qi hidden.

The Heavenly Dao hadn't expected Hongjun to be such a waste, losing his three corpses in the great battle with Luo Hou.

And that he would need primordial violet qi to restore them.

It was also because Hongjun was in a hurry to become a Saint and take control of the situation, and because the Heavenly Dao was dormant and unable to help him restore his three corpses.

This was why Hongjun set his sights on the primordial violet qi to restore his three corpses.

While the primordial violet qi was the foundation of Sainthood, it was also the handle by which the Heavenly Dao controlled the Saints.

Adopting the mindset that 'one more debt makes no difference,' Hongjun didn't care.

He didn't care whether his three corpses were restored by the Power of the Heavenly Dao or by the primordial violet qi.

Since they would be controlled by the Heavenly Dao after restoration anyway, he might as well cause some trouble for the Heavenly Dao.

While the Heavenly Dao was still dormant, he used the primordial violet qi to restore his three corpses.

In this way, he could reduce the possibility of three more Heavenly Dao Saints appearing in the future.

This would prevent the Heavenly Dao from using those three wisps of primordial violet qi to create three more Saints, which would have strengthened the Heavenly Dao's own power.

If that happened, Hongjun's goal of breaking free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao would be even further out of reach.

One day, ten thousand years after Hongjun had been driven away.

Inside Pangu Hall, a Hunyuan Golden Immortal pressure containing the Law of Creation spread out.

Feeling this aura, Taiqing, who was sitting in cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes, a look of pleasant surprise in his gaze.

"I didn't expect Nuwa to be the first to prove her Dao."

That aura was clearly Nuwa having successfully attained the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm by relying on the Law of Creation.

Nuwa had completely embarked on the Path of Dao Attainment through Law.

Taiqing had originally thought Fuxi would be the first to attain the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, but he hadn't expected Nuwa to beat him to it.

It seemed Fuxi's status as the older brother was a bit unstable in front of his younger sister, Nuwa.

However, before Taiqing could go to congratulate Nuwa on her Breakthrough, another aura rose from the place next to where Nuwa had been in seclusion.

Within it was clearly the Law of Eight Trigrams Deduction mastered by Fuxi.

The Fuxi and Nuwa Siblings truly shared a deep connection, attaining the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm one right after the other.

"Not bad, not bad. I've finally managed to bluff these two siblings onto our ship.

From now on, regardless of whether they explicitly take our side, they are our natural allies.

It won't be so easy for the Heavenly Dao to use Nuwa to plot against the Human Dao anymore."

Taiqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Nuwa and Fellow Daoist Fuxi for attaining the realm of a Primordial Golden Immortal Mighty Being.

From now on, in this vast Primordial World, there is nowhere you cannot go."

The Fuxi and Nuwa Siblings had just stepped out of their seclusion rooms; they looked at each other in surprise and joy, not even having time to congratulate each other yet.

Taiqing then offered his own congratulations.

"I must thank Fellow Daoist Taiqing for providing my sister and me with such a massive Opportunity.

Otherwise, we wouldn't have known when we could ever surpass the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.

Nor would we have known that this Path of Law was actually so powerful.

Compared to the Way of Magic Power of the Primordial Spirit, this Path of Law is far superior."

Fuxi bowed sincerely to Taiqing; since Taiqing had pointed out the path forward for him, performing such a great rite did not diminish his status.

"It is merely because Fellow Daoist Fuxi was willing to believe in me. As the saying goes, 'Heaven helps those who help themselves.'

Now that you have embarked on the Path of Law,

You likely understand that one's own Dao, without the support of a Law, is nothing but a castle in the air.

Now, with a Law as your foundation, you might even be able to attain the Hun Yuan Heavenly Venerable realm in the future."

Although Taiqing spoke with humility, the Fuxi and Nuwa Siblings would not treat this as their own doing.

If Taiqing hadn't explained the intricacies and then let them use Pangu Hall for their Breakthrough,

They would never have seen through the mysteries to break through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal Realm.

"Though Fellow Daoist Taiqing is humble, I cannot fail to uphold my original promise.

From now on, we, the Fuxi and Nuwa Siblings, will follow Fellow Daoist Taiqing's arrangements.

No matter what happens to the Wu Clan, we will stand on their side.

Should Fellow Daoist Taiqing have any instructions, I, Fuxi, will certainly not refuse."

Fuxi mentioned his previous promise once again.

However, Fuxi wasn't entirely without schemes; when he spoke of Taiqing giving instructions, he deliberately excluded Nuwa.

It was fine if Taiqing wanted to command him, Fuxi, but he absolutely could not command his sister, Nuwa.

Taiqing naturally heard the meaning in Fuxi's words but didn't mind.

In any case, these two siblings had already stepped onto his ship.

There would be plenty of time to plan around these two in the future.

"Fellow Daoist Fuxi overstates things. It is not about 'instructions,' but rather about us standing united and helping one another.

I wonder what you Two Fellow Daoists plan to do next?

If you wish to continue your cultivation here in Pangu Hall, my Wu Clan welcomes you most warmly."

Taiqing could naturally see from their eyes that these two did not want to stay in Pangu Hall for much longer.

That was why he asked about their plans.

"Fellow Daoist Taiqing, I hope you can tell us the location of that place that can shield us from the Heavenly Dao.

My sister and I have already troubled you Fellow Daoists in Pangu Hall for a long time; we truly feel embarrassed to stay any longer.

We plan to return to Phoenix Perch Mountain first, and then go to that place to Cultivate.

In the future, if Fellow Daoist Taiqing has any orders, you can use a communication jade slip to contact us."

Fuxi didn't beat around the bush and stated his plans directly.

Although Fuxi said he was at Taiqing's beck and call,

In reality, he just wanted to get away from Pangu Hall and go elsewhere for quiet cultivation.

This was to avoid becoming entangled in a massive Karma with the Wu Clan.

Fuxi's intentions were so clear that even the most straightforward Zhu Rong could see them, so how could Taiqing not?
