Honghuang: My understanding is beyond heaven, I am the ancestor of the stars

"Could it be... he has some trump card?"

Just when Nuwa was thinking this, Laozi, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

But he was not talking to Nuwa, but to Huo Ling'er.

"A long time ago, you and I had a battle, but the winner was not really decided. Why not fight again now?"

"That's what I meant!"

Huo Ling'er's eyes were burning with fighting spirit. Like Laozi, she also wanted to fight with him.

Before the separation of the prehistoric world, Huo Ling'er and Laozi had a battle.

Although Huo Ling'er was injured in that battle, Laozi did not think he won. On the contrary, he thought he lost completely.

Because he lost a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, which was the Guaibian separated from the Creation Green Lotus.

This incident had a great impact on Laozi. It can even be said that it directly led to his early enlightenment, so that he gave up the opportunity of the human race, and the sect he established was not the human religion, but the Taoist religion.

Laozi thought he lost completely, and so did Huo Ling'er.

In Huo Ling'er's opinion, it was not right for her to be suppressed by Laozi after he attained enlightenment.

It was not that she felt that she had to stop the strong men who had attained enlightenment before she attained enlightenment, but Huo Ling'er thought that she attained enlightenment too late.

If it had been a little earlier, Taihao would not have to take the lead.

Fortunately, it was not too late now.

Although she did not attain enlightenment earlier than Laozi, Huo Ling'er did not think she would lose.

Because just like Nuwa, Huo Ling'er's method of attaining enlightenment could be said to be attaining enlightenment by force to a certain extent, but it was just a weakened version.

But even so, this method of attaining enlightenment was not comparable to Laozi's.

Although Laozi was the first cultivator to attain enlightenment by virtue, in fact, he was not much better than Yuanshi and others.

His method of attaining enlightenment was still virtue.

The only thing that was better than them was that he did not make a great wish, and compared with the other four, he had a lot more autonomy.

But since he used purple qi to prove his Dao and his soul was entrusted to the Heavenly Dao of the Little Primordial World, how could he be truly free and at ease?

In this situation, four of the five Hunyuans have decided to fight!

A world-shaking war is about to break out.

But before they start fighting, something strange happens.

A big hand suddenly stretched out from the void, and before anyone could react, it directly changed the surrounding environment.

The battlefield also shifted from the Taihao Realm to the depths of chaos.

At least this is the case for the four Hunyuans.

This golden big hand came from Taihao.

Of course, he couldn't let the four Hunyuan strongmen fight in the Taihao Realm.

After all, the Primordial World in history was torn apart because of the Conferred God Calamity, so that it finally ushered in the End of the Law Era.

It can be said that the War of the Saints is the direct cause of the Primordial World's downgrade.

Although the Taihao Realm is large, it is still inferior to the complete Primordial World.

A battle of that scale would be difficult to withstand even for the entire prehistoric world, not to mention the Taihao Realm.

Therefore, the only way is to transfer the battlefield to Primal Chaos.

After the golden hand fell, the scene changed rapidly.

With the great power of Taihao, it was enough to make the four Primal Chaos fight in another place without any preparation.

In fact, if Hongjun had not interfered, he would have no problem attacking the Three Pure Ones directly.

But just after Taihao opened up the battlefield, something strange happened again.

For some reason, Tongtian swung the Qingping Sword again, shooting out an unparalleled sword light and slashing towards Hongyun.

This scene was extremely sudden. After Huo Ling'er and the other four Primal Chaos were transferred away, no one could stop it, not even Xihe.

If this attack was directed at Xihe, she might have been able to defend it.

But if it was aimed at Hongyun, it would be a bit too late.

For a moment, Hongyun actually took the blow from the saint head-on!

With Hongyun's cultivation, let alone taking it head-on, even if it was just the aftermath, he would find it difficult to resist!

At this moment, the difference between Hunyuan and Quasi-Sage was vividly reflected.

Hongyun had almost no ability to resist and died suddenly.

Only a trace of damaged true spirit indicated that he was still alive the moment before.

Also in pieces was the Hongmeng Purple Qi!

The incident happened in an instant. Whether it was Tongtian's sudden attack or Hongyun's sudden fall, it was unexpected by everyone in the field.

Not to mention Hongyun himself.

He didn't even have time to scream before he became a dead soul under Tongtian's sword.

Only the damaged true spirit can prove that it once existed.

Also in an instant, in addition to Hongyun's true spirit, there was also the Hongmeng Purple Qi!

To be precise, the total amount of Hongmeng Purple Qi did not change.

It was just that under that sword intent, a complete purple Qi turned into eight purple Qi of varying lengths.

If you look carefully, you can find that there are three long and five short ones.

It seems that there is some kind of deep meaning in it.

This scene happened so suddenly that not only the demon cultivators, but even Xihe was stunned for a moment before quickly coming to her senses.

Then Xihe was alert, but also inexplicably confused.

I don’t know if it was her illusion, but Xihe felt that Tongtian’s sudden attack was not aimed at Hongyun, but at Hongmeng Purple Qi!

It’s just that because Hongmeng Purple Qi is in Hongyun’s body, it’s not so easy to take it out, so he just broke it up along with Hongyun!

If you think from this perspective, Hongyun’s death was very unjust.

But if his fate is taken into consideration, it is natural for Hongyun to die, because his fate has already been arranged by a certain existence in secret!

But Xihe certainly does not understand all this.

In fact, not to mention Xihe, even Tongtian does not know the tricks, and even...

He is a little confused about why he took action.

"Why did this seat... suddenly take action against Hongyun?"

At this moment, Tongtian was not only suspicious, but also a little frightened.

Although he pretended to be calm on the surface, he was actually more frightened than anyone else, even more unbearable than those trembling demon cultivators.

Tongtian is actually very proud. If it is not necessary, he will not take action against cultivators with lower cultivation than himself. This is also the reason why he did not directly take action against me and Yihe when he appeared, but chose to erase Yihe's magical powers.

With Tongtian's arrogance, it is unlikely that he will take action against Hongyun.

After all, he and Hongyun have no hatred at all.

But even so, he still waved the Qingping Sword in his hand. Although he did not do it voluntarily, in the eyes of others, Hongyun's death was related to him.

But like everyone else, Tongtian was terrified.

What was he terrified about?

Was he terrified that as a saint, his behavior would be out of control? Tongtian looked deeper and his true spirit was trembling.

He was shocked to find that it was not his physical body that made the Qingping Sword wave, but the...

Primordial Spirit that was placed in the void!

What?

His own Primordial Spirit was not under his control?

This conclusion made Tongtian even more terrified.

He couldn't understand why he, as a Hunyuan Saint, would still have such a situation. Didn't he say that after proving the Tao, he would be free and at ease?

Why was the situation different from what he thought?

Tongtian stared at the Hongmeng purple air that was divided into eight and flew away in an instant with a sharp gaze, and a guess quietly arose in his heart.

"Could it be that the reason is related to this?"

It must be said that Tongtian's guess was very bold.

Thanks to his Hunyuan cultivation, to some extent, he was already close to the truth.

It's just that Tongtian didn't dare to think further.

What was he thinking about?

Thinking about the source of the purple air.

Thinking about who was controlling his Yuanshen from behind, causing the Qingping Sword to swing uncontrollably.

So that Hongyun died and the purple air was torn into pieces.

In fact, even if Tongtian didn't think about it, he already had the answer in his subconscious.

The existence he didn't dare to think about is self-evident.

Hongjun!

At this moment, in the chaos connecting the two worlds, two vast and indescribable wills quietly descended, just like more than ten Yuanhuis ago, causing the vast chaos to be agitated.

But to be honest, there is still a very obvious difference.

The time more than ten Yuanhuis ago, although it could also cause such an impact, it was not just based on will, but required the arrival of the real body.

From this, we can see how much the two sides have increased in strength.

"Hongjun, I didn't expect you to reach the threshold of the peak of Hunyuan? It really surprised me!"

In the chaos.

Taihao spoke first.

Neither he nor Hongjun took action immediately.

Because there was no shortage of time.

Both sides knew that once this battle started, they would not be able to take care of other things, and the battle would last for a long time, not to mention that the restrictions of time and space would be broken.

Even the chaos itself.

There is a possibility that it can't bear it!

Because Taihao and Hongjun's current cultivation is not only in the late stage of Hunyuan, but also touching the threshold of the peak of Hunyuan!

The peak of Hunyuan and the late stage of Hunyuan are not the same concept.

The strength is naturally incomparable.

After touching this threshold, Taihao even suspected that Pangu would be at the peak of Hunyuan before the opening of the sky!

Taihao just touched its edge, and his strength soared several times. If he really broke through to that realm, how strong his strength would be, I'm afraid it's hard to imagine.

Similarly, Hongjun's strength increased a lot after he touched the edge of the peak of Hunyuan.

Compared with Taihao's breakthrough to the late Hunyuan a dozen Yuanhui ago, the gap was almost zero.

In terms of strength, the two surprisingly returned to the same starting line.
