Honghuang Xuanyang Dao

Chapter 40: The Saint's Pressure on the Wilderness (Please Collect and Read)
After returning to Xuanyang Mountain in the East China Sea, Li Xuanyang couldn't wait to come to the side of the Chaos Spirit Spring, sat cross-legged, and began to repair the Moon-Swallowing Soul-Devouring Sword.

For a moment, Li Xuanyang directly showed the three flowers of his primordial spirit. Above the half-acre-sized auspicious cloud, the cracked Moon-Swallowing Soul-Devouring Sword hung high in the air. The sword's brilliance dimmed, and bursts of mournful cries were heard.

The next moment, Li Xuanyang took out the essence of the stars and threw it into the air. Above the three flowers of the soul, the innate two-yin and yang true fire was derived. The black and white flames rolled up, and the essence of the stars fell into it and began to be smelted and purified.

However, what Li Xuanyang did not expect was that once the essence of the stars fell into the innate two-pole true fire, it not only did not melt immediately, but instead overflowed with bursts of brilliance, echoing with the stars in the sky above the thirty-three outer heavens, and attracting the brilliance of countless stars in the sky.

A strange vision appeared in the sky. The light of 365 stars in the sky intertwined and entangled with each other, giving rise to the mystery of the way of stars. Gradually, huge stars were transformed and reflected on Xuanyang Mountain.

This allowed Li Xuanyang to discover many of the mysteries of the stars in the sky.

"Of the three hundred and sixty-five celestial stars, the Sun and the Moon are the most revered, while the Purple Star is dim."

"And this star essence, it seems to be condensed from the essence of the stars in the sky, but in fact, the star essence it contains is too chaotic, and is not as pure as the star essence condensed from the essence of a single star."

So Li Xuanyang simply sacrificed the innate spiritual treasure Liangyi Lamp, derived the power of the innate Liangyi True Fire, and transformed the essence of the stars into strands of starlight, no more and no less than three hundred and sixty-five, and devoured them with the Moon-Swallowing Soul-Devouring Sword.

At the same time, Li Xuanyang once again summoned the innate Yin-Yang divine diagram, took out the merit and virtue from it, and integrated it into both sides of the sword.

The Moon-Swallowing Soul-Devouring Sword emitted bursts of exciting sword sounds, and the cracks on the sword gradually disappeared. Instead, a layer of golden light slowly emerged, which was the aura of merit and virtue.

Gradually, the Moon-Devouring Soul-Eating Sword underwent a change. First, a layer of silver moonlight appeared in the golden light, which continuously integrated strands of starlight into the sword body, transforming it into the lunar divine light.

In this way, unknowingly, the Moon-Devouring Soul-Devouring Sword not only became as good as new, but even began to improve the hardness and power of the sword, gradually becoming an acquired merit and killing sword, gathering merit and killing in one.

Seeing this, Li Xuanyang simply put the Moon-Swallowing Soul-Devouring Sword into the Innate Yin-Yang Divine Diagram, and continued to strengthen the sword body with the mysterious and yellow energy of merit. A willow branch emerged in his soul, which he used to comprehend the laws of space.

In the following years, Li Xuanyang was either nurturing the Moon-Swallowing Soul-Devouring Sword, or comprehending the laws of space and deducing the Chaos Immortal Body.

I saw that the innate two-pole true fire and chaotic energy were accompanied by countless space fragments, like a vortex, constantly evolving around Li Xuanyang, like a huge space storm, tempering every inch of the skin on his body, and his body became stronger day by day.

This situation has lasted for tens of thousands of years. At the beginning, Li Xuanyang only comprehended the laws of space and did not use space fragments to temper his body.

However, as time went on, Li Xuanyang discovered that he could not only use the willow branches to comprehend the laws of space, but he could also use the space fragments to temper his body and increase its strength.

At this time, Li Xuanyang had already pushed the Chaos Immortal Body to its limit, tempering his body with the innate two-pole true fire and space fragments, and at the same time integrating the chaotic energy into his body, deriving the laws of chaos.

However, how domineering are the innate two-pole true fire and space fragments!

Every time the body is tempered, countless true fires and space fragments will pass through the body, which is like the torture of slow slicing and is extremely painful.

Fortunately, the chaotic energy in the Chaos Spirit Spring can repair physical damage.

On this day, the scene above the void suddenly changed. Countless innate purple air filled the air, clouds swept across billions of miles, divine light shot up into the sky, and bursts of immortal music were pleasant to the ears.

In the blink of an eye, it spread throughout the entire prehistoric world.

There were also golden flowers falling from the sky and golden lotuses emerging from the ground, showing incredible and supreme Taoist supernatural powers, dyeing the entire sky purple.

From the direction of the Thirty-Third Outer Heaven, waves of supreme divine power came. Li Xuanyang felt that the three flowers of his soul were shaking non-stop and were almost dissipating. He could only display his Taoist supernatural powers, activate the Chaos Immortal Body and the Xuanyang Sutra, and barely resisted it.

At this time, all the strange scenes in the void gradually disappeared, and a faint sound was heard from the thirty-three outer heavens.

"Lying on nine layers of clouds, the truth lies on the futon."

"Outside of heaven and earth, I am the master of teaching."

"Pangu gave birth to Tai Chi, and the two rituals and four phenomena followed."

"The Xuanmen all lead the show, turning into Hongjun in one breath."

This is Hongjun Daozu's enlightenment and becoming a saint!

Looking in the direction of the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens, Li Xuanyang was shocked. Only when Daozu Hongjun attained enlightenment and became a saint could such a shocking phenomenon occur, which could overwhelm the entire prehistoric world.

At this time, a voice rang out again from above the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens, "I am Hongjun. Today I have attained sainthood and will preach in the Purple Sky Palace of the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens. Anyone who is predestined may come and listen."

This sound was different from the last time. It was like a breeze blowing into the ears. Those who were destined to hear it could hear it, but those who were not destined to hear it could not hear any sound even if they had great Taoist skills and supernatural powers.

"This is the magical power of a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian Sage!" Li Xuanyang's expression was complex, a mixture of surprise and a hint of worry. Daozu Hongjun had attained sainthood and was preaching in the Purple Cloud Palace. The prehistoric world was about to enter the era of quasi-saints. It seemed likely that the saints' attainment of sainthood and the great calamity of the witches and liches were not far off.

After a long while, Li Xuanyang gradually came back to his senses. He saw the Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys who were taking care of the spiritual roots and immortal herbs, and the snoring Nine-headed Feathered Insect, all lying on the ground, trembling all over, with pale faces.

Seeing this, Li Xuanyang waved his hand and shot out a divine light, which fell into the souls of the Golden Crane, Silver Crane Boy and the Nine-headed Feathered Insect. The three of them felt warm all over and gradually recovered.

"Greetings, sir!" The golden crane, silver crane boys and the nine-headed feathered insect all bowed to Li Xuanyang.

"Master, the vision just now was so frightening that I couldn't move at all. My soul was blank, as if I was facing something extremely terrifying and couldn't even muster up the slightest resistance." The nine-headed feathered insect shook its nine heads with a face full of fear and terror.

"Just now, we both felt the same as Jiuyu. We had no intention of resisting at all and instinctively lay on the ground in one direction." The Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys complained one after another. They were obviously frightened by the strange vision and power just now.

Upon hearing this, Li Xuanyang glanced at the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens with a complicated expression and said, "This is where a true master of great supernatural powers has attained sainthood."

A true master of great supernatural powers!
Prove the truth and become a saint!

The Golden Crane, Silver Crane Boy and the Nine-headed Feathered Insect all looked puzzled. Isn't their master a person with great supernatural powers?

Where does this real powerful person come from!
They don’t even know what it means to attain enlightenment and become a saint!
"This is a powerful person similar to the master!" The nine-headed feathered insect couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.

"How can I be considered a true master of great magical powers?" Li Xuanyang couldn't help but laugh. "Below the level of a saint, we are all ants!"

"Even a cultivator like me who has reached the state of enlightenment is still just a slightly larger ant to a saint."

After Li Xuanyang finished speaking, he instructed the Golden Crane, Silver Crane Boy, and Nine-Headed Feathered Insect, "You all stay in the mountains and cultivate well. I will be going to the Purple Sky Palace of the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens to listen to the teachings. I will be back in three to four thousand years at the earliest, and five to six thousand years at the latest."

After giving some instructions to the Golden Crane, Silver Crane Boy and the Nine-headed Feathered Insect, Li Xuanyang rode the auspicious clouds to leave Xuanyang Mountain and head towards the Thirty-three Outer Heavens.

………………

In the East Kunlun Mountains, Taoist Taiqing, Taoist Yuqing, and Taoist Shangqing all looked towards the direction of the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens with heavy expressions.

He was obviously shocked by the vision when Hongjun Daozu attained enlightenment.

"This is the magical power of a saint!" A hint of shock flashed across the eyes of the Taoist Shangqing. He just didn't know what kind of background this Taoist Hongjun had to be able to achieve enlightenment and become a saint.

"Senior brother, this Taoist Hongjun has attained enlightenment and become a saint. He is preaching in the Zixiao Palace above the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens. Should we go there?" Taoist Yuqing asked Taoist Taiqing.

The Three Pure Ones are the incarnations of the great god Pangu’s spirit, so they naturally know what realm a saint is in!

That's why it's so shocking.

"We certainly cannot miss the saint's preaching. It's just that we can't go to Xuanyang Mountain in the East China Sea to visit fellow Taoist Xuanyang, which is a bit regrettable." Taoist Taiqing retracted his gaze, with a hint of emotion in his tone.

On that day, the Three Pure Ones, Zhulong and Hongyun came all the way to the southwest. When they saw the two sacred mountains, East and West Kunlun, they could not help but marvel at it. It was truly a place of mysterious creation.

Among them, the area of ​​East Kunlun Mountain is where the innate spiritual energy turns into mist and the earth veins converge. It is actually not weaker than the Taoist temple in the original Buzhou Mountain and is comparable to the blessed land.

During this period, several people discussed the Dao with Queen Mother of the West and were amazed at her laws of space.

Originally, the Three Pure Ones planned to go to Wanmiao Cave Heaven in Xuanyang Mountain in the East China Sea to visit Li Xuanyang after a while, firstly to express their gratitude and secondly to see the style of the overseas cultivation world. However, they did not expect to meet Hongjun Daozu who had attained enlightenment and become a saint.

Hearing what Taoist Taiqing said, Taoist Yuqing and Taoist Shangqing nodded in unison.

Just as Taiqing said, when a saint preaches, we cannot miss it.

As for going to Wanmiao Cave Heaven in Xuanyang Mountain in the East China Sea to visit fellow Taoist Xuanyang, we can only talk about it another day.

It is possible that Fellow Daoist Xuanyang will also go to the Zixiao Palace in the Thirty-three Outer Heavens to listen to the teachings.

Soon, the Three Pure Ones told the boy to look after the house well and take care of the spiritual roots and herbs in the mountains, and sent someone to West Kunlun to inform the Queen Mother of the West about what Hongjun Daozu had said and what he had done at Zixiao Palace.

Then they each rode on auspicious clouds and headed towards the Thirty-three Outer Heavens.
