Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 258: Released from Prison and Returning to Zixiao Palace
Seeing his disciple looking so disappointed, Hongjun was so angry that he wanted to curse.

But now that he still had to rely on others, he could only suppress his anger and speak in a gentle voice.

"Don't worry, the only ones participating in the Conferred God Tribulation this time are the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa and his sister. Not even Hou Tu is qualified to participate in the Conferred God Tribulation."

"Because this Conferred God Tribulation is a battle between sects, those who have not established a great sect are naturally not qualified to participate in the Conferred God Tribulation."

"Even the Nine Netherworld will be sealed off when the Conferred God Tribulation begins. So you don't have to worry about the authentic saints interfering in the Conferred God Tribulation."

"And you seem to have forgotten that my Heavenly Dao has not only four saints, but six. Don't you have confidence when you are fighting six against five?"

"Besides, this Conferred God Tribulation is a battle between the disciples of the sect. It is not a fight between you saints. What do you have to worry about?"

While speaking, Daozu Hongjun waved his hand, and hundreds of high-grade innate spiritual treasures appeared in front of the Four Saints of Heaven.

"Take these innate spiritual treasures back and distribute them to your disciples. Help them to slay the generals and become gods during the Conferred God Tribulation."

This inevitably made the Four Heavenly Saints' eyes light up instantly. They immediately divided up the innate spiritual treasure bestowed by Hongjun.

At this moment, two long rainbows flew out from the sky and landed directly in the Zixiao Palace.

As the two long rainbows transformed into human forms, the Four Saints realized that these were the two former emperors of the demon clan, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi.
Ever since the Lich Tribulation, the Second Demon King had been sealed within the Heavenly Dao by Hongjun. It had been countless eons.

And in this process, they were not just suppressed, but were slowly transformed by the Heavenly Dao, and completely controlled by the Hongmeng Purple Qi.

Therefore, at this time, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi not only had no complaints against Hongjun, but even felt that their actions in the past had let down Hongjun's teachings.

Now that he appeared in Zixiao Palace, he knelt on the ground without hesitation, with a face full of regret, and bowed deeply to Hongjun.

Hongjun waved his hand, helped Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi up, and began to speak.

"Through practicing in the Heavenly Dao for several years, I believe you should have already understood yourself. Otherwise, your cultivation would never be able to reach the eighth level of the Saint Realm."

Zhen Yuanzi was shocked to hear that Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi's cultivation had reached the eighth level of the Saint Realm.

After all, he had gone through countless years of hard training and the blessing of the external sect's luck, and now his realm was only the sixth level of the Saint Realm.

Even the cultivation level of Patriarch Hongyun is only at the seventh level of the Saint Realm.

As for the two Buddhist monks in the West, they are even more miserable. One is at the third level of the Saint Realm, and the other is at the fourth level of the Saint Realm.

As for the envy, jealousy and hatred of the Four Saints, Di Jun and Dong Huang Tai Yi did not take it to heart at all. Instead, they spoke to Hong Jun respectfully.

"If it weren't for Master's wake-up call that day, letting me know how wrong I was, how could I have achieved the level of cultivation I have today?"

"My brother and I were already Heavenly Dao Saints, yet we dreamed of leading our people to dominate the prehistoric world. Every time I think back on it, I feel incredibly ashamed."

Hongjun nodded after hearing this, "I am very pleased that you can understand this."

"The laws of nature have decreed that the power of the saints cannot be the same as that of the prehistoric world. Otherwise, the development of the prehistoric world will undergo abnormal changes, and even trigger an infinite catastrophe."

"I have told you this before, but unfortunately, you have been blinded by the calamity. Otherwise, how could you have made such a big mistake?" Chen Xuan was not in Zixiao Palace at this moment, otherwise he would have rushed up and given Hongjun two big blows.

After all, being able to play both pretense and independence to this extent, Hongjun is definitely the only one in the prehistoric world.

At this time, Zhen Yuanzi directly said: "Master, you just said that only the sect can participate in the Conferred God Tribulation."

"Then how will Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi participate in the Conferred God Tribulation? Could it be that they will participate as members of the Demon Cult?"

"Although Demon Master Kunpeng founded the Demon Cult and Donghuang Taiyi was responsible for teaching the demon race, they are not the leaders of the Demon Cult after all. I am afraid that the saints of Qinglian Island may not agree with them."

"Also, there is an irreconcilable feud between the human race and the demon race. If Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi support Xiqi as members of the demon cult, I'm afraid they may not be recognized by the human race."

Zhen Yuanzi's worries were definitely not groundless. Back then, the Taoist Master Ran Deng had merely suggested that the demons help Emperor Xuanyuan, and yet they had ended up like that.

If Di Jun and Dong Huang Tai Yi were to participate in this Conferred God Tribulation, the consequences would probably be much more serious than the proposal of the Taoist Master Ran Deng.

Even Zhen Yuanzi did not express his words too directly, otherwise what he should have said was Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, which would be difficult for the human race to accept.

Hongjun understood the key point, so he immediately said, "Master will make his own arrangements for this matter."

"Until the final battle between the saints, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi will definitely not take action. Having them come to Zixiao Palace today is just to let the saints of Qinglian Island know that they will participate in the Conferred God Conferment."

As soon as Hongjun said this, Zhen Yuanzi felt relieved. After all, he was really worried that Hongjun would assign Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi to the Chanjie Sect.

At this time, the Red Cloud Patriarch beside him said, "Master, the strength of our Xuan Sect has now crushed Qinglian Island."

"But there are only a dozen or so Taoist disciples. How can they fill up the Conferred God List? As for those human disciples, they rarely leave the Fire Cloud Cave."

"Unless we can find a way to get all the disciples of the Human Religion to come out, it won't be easy to use the disciples of the Dao Sect and the Human Religion to fill up the Conferred God List."

In response, Hongjun simply said calmly: "Don't worry, this time the human race's struggle is no different from the previous ones. The human race's ancestors of the Human Religion will not remain indifferent."

At this moment, Nuwa's voice was heard outside Zixiao Palace: "Teacher Hongjun is right. This time, I, the disciples of the Human Sect, will definitely not stand idly by."

"After all, as a disciple of the Human Cult, I cannot just sit there and watch a traitor who betrayed the human race become the leader of the human race."

As they spoke, the Six Saints of Qinglian Island had already stepped into Zixiao Palace. They bowed to Hongjun and greeted him, "Teacher."

After all, they had listened to the teachings in Zixiao Palace. Although they didn't learn much, they did take a lot when the treasures were distributed at the Treasure Sharing Cliff.

Therefore, it is absolutely not an exaggeration to call Hongjun "teacher". Moreover, Hongjun is an elder after all, so the superficial courtesy is inevitable.

Hongjun also smiled and said, "Since you are here, let's find a place to sit down."

Then the Six Saints of Qinglian Island took out their cushions and sat directly opposite the Six Saints of Tiandao.
