Chapter 35 The Third Qing Descends upon Zifu Prefecture
Chapter 35 The Third Qing Descends upon Zifu Prefecture
The Netherworld Blood Sea was formed from Pangu's navel and is known as a filthy place.
The endless sea of blood ensures that as long as even a single drop remains, the Styx Ancestor will not truly die. Unless one reaches the realm of a saint, it is difficult to inflict fatal damage on him.
He also possesses two innate spiritual treasures, the Abyssal Yuan Tu, and is a swordsman.
He was naturally one of the targets of Dongwanggong's recruitment efforts.
Just then, a commotion arose outside. Everyone looked in the direction of the noise and were shocked to see that the newcomers were Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun.
Zhen Yuanzi is the ancestor of earth immortals. His companion treasure is the Book of Earth, which is the embryonic membrane of the primordial earth. He also possesses the Ginseng Fruit Tree, one of the ten innate spiritual roots.
Hongyun was the first fiery cloud to take form in the world, and it also received a wisp of primordial energy from the Dao Ancestor, making it a possible future sage.
The surrounding creatures were all in awe.
Being able to attend this Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Immortals today is truly an eye-opening experience.
Those who can sit in the main hall are all first-rate beings, belonging to the top powerhouses in this primordial world.
Normally, these insignificant people would consider it an incredible stroke of luck to even meet one of them.
Immediately after that.
Two more figures entered the hall.
Everyone was taken aback by the two of them, but then most of the quasi-saints looked at them with disdain and disgust.
Because the visitors were Jieyin and Zhunti.
Their performance in Zixiao Palace has already spread throughout the primordial world.
The envoy hurriedly stepped forward.
"Fellow Daoists, you have come from afar, please come inside quickly!"
The Eastern King did not personally appear.
Although these two also possessed the Primordial Purple Qi, they were destined to become saints in the future.
But their statement, which resonates with the West, has been met with disdain by many.
Jieyin and Zhunti seemed oblivious to the gazes of those around them. One of them wore a sorrowful expression, while the other had a compassionate look on his face.
Time passed slowly.
Most of the people who were supposed to come have already arrived.
Although the Eastern King Duke had a smile on his face, his eyes were full of displeasure as he turned his gaze to the Purple Mansion envoy who had gone to invite the Three Pure Ones.
The meaning in their eyes was self-evident.
The Purple Mansion envoy said with a wry smile, "The Three Pure Ones did indeed promise to attend the Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly, but I don't know why they haven't shown up yet."
The Eastern King was somewhat angry; was this a sign that he disdained to associate with him?
Since you promised, why not keep your promise?
Of course, these were just thoughts in everyone's minds. He didn't want to offend the Three Pure Ones, who were the direct disciples of the Dao Ancestor and the future destined saints.
The three were spoken by the original god Pangu, and the Three Pure Ones are one.
If one day they become saints, and the three of them join forces, who would dare to provoke them?
Just as he was feeling depressed.
next moment.
The void trembled, and the Purple Mansion Sea churned, with purple qi stretching three thousand miles eastward.
Everyone's heart was pounding.
Even when the quasi-saints and powerful beings present made their appearances, they did not cause such a great stir.
Although they did not know who the newcomer was, they had a guess in their hearts that the newcomer's strength was no less than that of the Styx Ancestor.
Who exactly is this person?
And at that very moment.
The void, like a mirror, was shattered by a single bull's hoof.
After the primordial spatial barrier shattered, a giant blue ox emerged from it, emanating an extremely terrifying aura.
An old man sat cross-legged atop the blue ox.
Following closely behind was a middle-aged man exuding an aura of unparalleled preciousness, while on the other side was a young man emanating a sharp edge that seemed capable of tearing the heavens and earth apart.
At the very back are two other beings, whose strength is relatively weak. They have a protective force around them to prevent them from being invaded by spatial turbulence.
Everyone present was completely dumbfounded.
The Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Immortals fell silent.
As they wondered who the newcomer was, a ray of light suddenly appeared in the void.
Then a figure holding a dragon-headed cane appeared.
And he is the master of this Purple Mansion Immortal Court.
Dongwanggong!
When other quasi-saints and powerful beings came, they were received by envoys from the Celestial Court.
Only these few people arrived.
The Eastern King actually came in person, and his attitude was extremely humble.
Many beings in the primordial world knew the nature of the Eastern King Duke: he was arrogant, conceited, and narrow-minded, and could not tolerate any disobedience from others.
At this moment, however, he personally stepped forward to greet him.
The shock felt by all the living beings present was profound and lingered for a long time.
What kind of status could make the Eastern King Duke treat scholars with such respect?
Those quasi-saints and powerful beings, in particular, were extremely resentful.
Everyone is of equal cultivation level, so why did the Eastern King only arrange for his subordinates to greet them when they appeared, but put on such an attitude when facing these few people?
A very small number of them had already recognized the person who came.
Ancestor Styx was one of them. He snorted softly but said nothing more.
Zhunti and Jieyin felt uneasy. Although they were nominal disciples, they had both obtained the Primordial Purple Qi, and Dongwanggong clearly did not take them seriously.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, the Three Pure Ones are their biological offspring, while the Westerners are like stepchildren.
The Eastern King bowed respectfully, his attitude very humble: "Welcome, my three senior brothers, to the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering!"
After speaking, he faced the crowd with a proud smile, completely losing his previous friendly attitude, as if he were high and mighty.
"Everyone, the Three Pure Ones are the direct disciples of the Dao Ancestor. Their presence at the Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly today proves the legitimate position of the Purple Mansion Immortal Court."
The crowd erupted in uproar.
No wonder the Eastern King Duke had such an attitude; it turns out that the Three Pure Ones of Kunlun Mountain were present.
And the facts are just as the Eastern King Duke said.
The arrival of the Three Pure Ones was as if they were supporting him, proving that the Purple Mansion Celestial Court was indeed the rightful place.
In fact, many people have already understood the meaning behind the Eastern King Duke's hosting of the Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly: to demonstrate his legitimate position and to attract many powerful figures to join him.
Taishang still wore a gentle smile, but he said nothing. He had already seen through Dongwanggong's little scheme, but since Dongwanggong was the head of the male immortals appointed by his teacher, he decided to give his teacher face.
Lao Tzu walks ahead.
Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian followed behind, one on the left and one on the right.
Following them were Niu Ben, Guang Chengzi, and Duobao.
The Eastern King Duke invited the Three Pure Ones to a high position, second only to himself, the master of the Purple Palace Heavenly Court.
After the Three Pure Ones took their seats, Niu Ben stood behind Taishang, while Guangchengzi and Duobao stood behind Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian respectively.
And the one they attacked was none other than the Styx Ancestor.
Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly at Styx Ancestor, his eyes filled with arrogance and disdain, feeling that Styx Ancestor was a creature born from a filthy place and unworthy to share the same hall with them.
Tongtian, on the other hand, wore a smile. If the occasion were not inappropriate, he would have liked to spar with the Styx Ancestor, as he was also skilled in swordsmanship.
Niu Ben observed everyone's reactions.
Guang Chengzi, a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, raised his head slightly. Despite being only a Golden Immortal, he showed no fear of the top Quasi-Saints.
Duobao, on the other hand, looked on with envy, and was probably thinking about when he could reach the level of a quasi-saint.
then,
Then two people walked towards them.
Niu Ben recognized it immediately.
