"Because you did not heed my command!" the figure in the Chaos fog sincerely spoke, "I naturally had to come to you!"

"Huh?"

Sect Hierarch Tongtian did not grasp it immediately, his face showing a hint of contemplation.

Although the person before him had a mysterious origin and even he could not discern the depths of the other's Dao Xing, Sect Hierarch Tongtian did not take it too seriously. With a mere thought, a verdant sword light instantly vanished into the Chaos fog.

When the sword light reappeared, it was already above the head of the mysterious person.

Terrifying strength gathered around the Qingping Sword, slashing directly towards the other's head.

This sword carried an intimidating power, one that even Yuanshi Tianzun would not dare to take head-on.

Yet, the person remained calm and collected. With just a glance, the terrifying power carried by the Qingping Sword was dispelled into nothingness, leaving only the Qingping Sword to emit a whimper as if terribly frightened, retreating back to Sect Hierarch Tongtian's side.

Sect Hierarch Tongtian's face changed greatly, surprised that his attack had been ineffective.

"Don't you understand yet? You cannot harm me," the person in the Chaos fog still spoke calmly.

Sect Hierarch Tongtian remained silent, suddenly another sword light carrying terrifying power slashed towards the person, only to be effortlessly neutralized by the other in an instant.

"I originally thought you were the smartest among The Three Pure Ones. Now it seems, even though you've attained Sainthood, you're still rash and reckless..." the mysterious person in the Chaos fog sighed and shook his head.

Before his words could settle, Sect Hierarch Tongtian had already retrieved the Qingping Sword, then slowly grasped the hilt.

Without any visible movements, four unembellished Immortal Swords suddenly appeared behind him.

Then, Sect Hierarch Tongtian wielding the Qingping Sword, gently swung it out.

Accompanied by a soft clashing sound of "clang", a rainbow-like sword light, like a divine punishment from the Heavenly Dao, slashed towards the mysterious person.

Although the sword light was as beautiful as a rainbow, it contained an immense and fierce ominous energy.

This was the killing power of the Heavenly Dao!

Power unparalleled!

Facing this sword, the mysterious person remained composed, and without any apparent movement, the rainbow-like sword light simply disappeared before him without inflicting the slightest harm.

Sect Hierarch Tongtian wasn't too surprised, as he swung the Qingping Sword again, the Four Swords of Slaying Immortal around him also began to dance slowly.

"Ding—"

Amidst the clear sword chimes, Slaying Immortal, Slaughter Immortal, Entrapping Immortal, Absolute Immortal swept out, transforming into four vast Divine Swords that materialized from the void, slashing directly at the mysterious person's head. Infinite Sword Intent also permeated the area, eventually converging on the Qingping Sword in Sect Hierarch Tongtian's hand.

"Heavenly Dao fifty, one escapes, behead with the sword, sever Heaven to seize the Dao! Slash—"

The Qingping Sword slashed down, triggering the Infinite Heavenly Dao Killing Power.

The entire Chaotic Sea was momentarily split into two, revealing a desolate, void of emptiness.

Slaying Immortal Four Swords!

At this moment, Sect Hierarch Tongtian directly sacrificed the fearsome weapon, the Four Swords of Slaying Immortal!

However, this time his gaze grew even more intense.

The four Divine Swords each emitted dazzling lights, and then simultaneously vanished into the Chaos fog in an instant. Tremendous oppressive forces burst forth, breaking out within the Chaos fog immediately.

This power could suppress everything, causing the Chaos fog to start dispersing and cracking, with immense vital energy rampaging.

Seeing this, the mysterious person finally made a new move.

A Jade Disc flew swiftly out from the Chaos fog, radiating a brilliant multicolored glow.

In that moment, it was as if thousands of Dao Laws descended.

The terrifying powers collided together, unleashing unimaginable force, directly dispersing the Chaos fog and thoroughly suppressing those four sword lights, not even a trace could escape.

"What? Creation Jade Disc!"

Sect Hierarch Tongtian was completely shocked, unable to help but exclaim aloud.

He was a direct disciple of Xuanmen, naturally recognizing this tiny Jade Disc as the treasure held by the Taoist Ancestor.

According to legend, this treasure, created before Heaven and Earth, recorded three thousand Daoist Laws. If one could thoroughly understand these three thousand Daoist Laws, they could certify as a Heavenly Dao Saint, thereby transcending Heaven and Earth.

For any Quasi-Saint or even the Merit Saints, the Creation Jade Disc was a coveted treasure!

Its value even far surpasses Innate Treasures such as the Pangu Banner, the Tai Chi Diagram, and the Chaos Bell.

Yet, although this treasure was recently bestowed upon Nuwa by the Taoist Ancestor, it should have been taken back after transmitting the edict. Why did it end up in the hands of this mysterious person?

Could it be...

Sect Hierarch Tongtian abruptly thought of a possibility, his eyes fixed on the mysterious person as he sternly demanded, "Was the edict to slay Yu Yuan forged by you? Who exactly are you?"

He is a Saint!

Immortal and indestructible, even if the Primordial gets destroyed, a Saint like him wouldn't be affected!

If there's anyone who could command him, it would only be the Taoist Ancestor Hong Jun!

When they say he did not obey the decree, it surely means that Sect Hierarch Tongtian did not comply with the edict to execute Yu Yuan.

This realization instantly invigorated Sect Hierarch Tongtian.

He had suspected that there was something amiss with that edict before, and now it seemed to be true indeed!

But what eluded him was who exactly this person before him was.

And why had Zixiao Palace shattered?

Why had Taoist Ancestor Hong Jun disappeared without a trace?

Though after merging with the Dao, Taoist Ancestor Hong Jun's existence had become extremely unique, surely it doesn't mean that even his Tao Palace could be destroyed without any reaction from him?

"Surely, you must have guessed it by now?"

The mysterious person looked at Sect Hierarch Tongtian, the chaotic fog around him gradually dissipating, revealing a figure of Daoist grace.

Dressed in a plain Daoist robe, wearing a white headband, holding a horsetail whisk, with long flowing eyebrows and beard, his bright eyes spirited, he radiated an aura of ancient nobility and loftiness.

His white hair was like frost, his face rugged, and his slightly closed eyes exuded profoundness. His simple Daoist robe could not hide his Daoist grace.

Seeing the true identity of the mysterious person, Sect Hierarch Tongtian's face was even more shocked, nearly blurting out the words "Master".

From the appearance alone, this dignified elderly Daoist was none other than Hong Jun, the one who established the Dao of Xuanmen, attained Sainthood by Cutting Three Corpses, and ultimately merged with the Heavenly Dao!

However, Sect Hierarch Tongtian knew that the person in front of him was definitely not his master!

He stared at the "Hong Jun," shouting angrily, "For the last time, who exactly are you, and where has my master gone?"

"I am Hong Jun, and Hong Jun is me!"

The "Hong Jun" responded with a smile looking at Sect Hierarch Tongtian, speaking lightly.

"Do you think such a trick can fool me?!"

Sect Hierarch Tongtian snorted coldly, activating the Four Swords of Slaying Immortal again, slashing towards the "Hong Jun."

At the same time, a dim and hazy Array Map emerged, vaguely exuding a fierce killing intent,

The Four Swords of Slaying Immortal, as heavenly tools of massacre, possess unmatched sharpness and power.

With these four swords and the Array Map, the Slaying Immortal Sword Formation can be formed.

Within the Sword Array, mysteries and dangers abound, with infinite lethality.

Even for a Heavenly Dao Saint, let alone a Daluo Golden Immortal, once caught in this formation would be instantaneously obliterated, extremely fearsome!

Facing the attack of the Slaying Immortal Four Swords, the "Hong Jun" remained calm and composed, with a gentle flick of his horsetail whisk, every attack was neatly neutralized, and then he threw the Creation Jade Disc, instantly suppressing the Slaying Immortal Array Map.

Sect Hierarch Tongtian's expression slightly changed.

Without the Array Map, he could no longer set up the Slaying Immortal Sword Formation!

Now he found it even harder to understand what the origin of this "Taoist Ancestor Hong Jun" was?

Why could this opponent easily suppress him, a Saint of the Heavenly Dao Merit?

At that moment, the "Hong Jun" smiled looking at him, holding a radiant Golden Core in his hand, and lightly said, "Will you, my rebellious disciple, still persist in your defiance?

I have here a Fallen Saint Pill; if you quickly consume it, I will no longer hold today's transgression against you."

"Fallen Saint Pill?"

"Yes, even if a Saint consumes this pill, with just a thought from me, they would certainly perish on the spot!"
