Chapter 180: Jieyinzhun Questioning and Becoming a Saint

Heng Ming smiled and said, “Success is like this, failure is like this too. The Three Pure Ones were the incarnations of Pangu’s original spirit, so they were born with 10% of the merits of creating the world, and they are also protected by supreme luck. But they are also great gods who have walked their own paths, and they are no longer related to Pangu.

But what they should never have done was to guide the Heavenly Dao into their bodies not long ago. Although their Dao foundation was luckily not damaged later, they were still infected with a hint of the Heavenly Dao's aura.

Master just passed on a message to me through the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Gate, saying that he can influence the Heavenly Dao to make it regard the Three Pure Ones as part of its body, and that the Eternal Protagonist is a thorn in the side of the Heavenly Dao. In order to eliminate the Eternal Protagonist, this prehistoric termite, the Three Pure Ones will naturally do their best to become prehistoric saints and kill this termite."

After hearing this, Nuwa seemed to be thinking about something, and a smile slowly appeared on her face.

"Indeed, the Heavenly Dao will not kill any living being without reason, but it can mobilize its own power. The Three Pure Ones were originally separated from the Heavenly Dao, but now the Heavenly Dao regards them as its main body, so it will naturally mobilize the Three Pure Ones without any scruples."

Although Nuwa had a good relationship with the Three Pure Ones before, the relationship between them became a little subtle after the words of the Sage of Heaven's Mandate came out.

Not to mention that they are now on the opposite side of the Three Pure Ones. They will not give up humanity, but the Three Pure Ones will not let them take control of humanity. They are born to be in the camp of the Heavenly Dao.

Although the Way of Heaven is thoughtless and merciless, the Three Pure Ones have special backgrounds, and who knows whether they will gain any benefits from it.

Rather than waiting for the Three Pure Ones to attain enlightenment in the future and then go against them, it is better to plot against them now and ruin their path.

But Nuwa still had a question, "What about the two people in the West? They have no connection with the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao will not order them to give up the Hunyuan Daluo Dao Fruit and forcibly become a prehistoric saint."

Although Jie Yin and Zhunti are the masters of the West and bear the great cause and effect of the West, they did not gain much benefit except obtaining two hongmeng purple auras. They even toiled day and night just to better make up for the West.

Heaven is fair and will only praise these two people and will not target them in any way.

Hengming was more relaxed about this and said with a smile: "This is even easier. We only need the Three Pure Ones to become saints. These two will definitely give up the Hunyuan Daluo Dao Fruit and then become saints. I am a saint from overseas, but my junior sister is also from the East after all. There are four saints in the East, while there is no saint in the West. As one grows, the other loses. The East will definitely absorb the luck of the West. This person will naturally give up the Dao and become a saint."

Apart from anything else, Hengming’s perspective on people is extremely accurate.

During the few days he stayed in the West, Hengming had already understood Jie Yin Zhunti's intention.

These two people are truly willing to sacrifice their lives for their ideals at all costs. The original intention of their cultivation has never been to achieve the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, but to make the West prosperous.

For them, achieving Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian is important, but not as important as the prosperity of the West. As long as the Four Saints of the East stand up one by one, the two of them will give up their Taoism no matter how unwilling they are and choose to use Hongmeng Purple Qi to achieve the status of saint.

After listening to Hengming's explanation, Nuwa also felt that it was very accurate.

There are as few Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian as possible. When one has cultivated to this stage, spiritual energy and blessed places are no longer important. The most important thing is to practice the Great Dao and let it gradually ascend.

The two of them have already placed their own great paths on humanity. As long as humanity gradually improves, their cultivation will also rise accordingly, so what they have to do is to advance humanity.

They would not hesitate even if it meant destroying the ancient world.

As for whether Sanqing and the two people from the West would achieve the status of saints after using the Hongmeng Purple Qi, and then achieve the Hunyuan Daluo Dao Fruit, they had already made a guess.

The power of Hunyuan Daluo is so vast that it is difficult to achieve this realm if there is even the slightest flaw in the spirit, body, Taoism, magic power, or any of the aspects.

There is a sequence in achieving enlightenment, and the two of them were one step ahead and found the way to sublimate the great way, but if nothing unexpected happens, Sanqing and Xifang will also be able to reach this level in the future.

But if the five of them use the Hongmeng Purple Qi to obtain the position of saint first, even if they have great authority of the Heavenly Dao and are no less than the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian in the prehistoric world, this will be an extremely terrifying harm to the Great Dao.

Bu Jian Hengming possesses the Book of Man and is able to borrow the authority of Heaven, but he seldom uses this power and relies more on the power of the Book of Man itself.

It is because he fears that using the authority of Heaven too much will taint his destiny, so he is as afraid of it as the snakes and scorpions and dares not use it too much.

But if one achieves the status of a sage after becoming a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, there will be no such defect.

It was because the Dao they controlled at that time was fundamentally no weaker than the Dao of the original power contained in the authority of the Heavenly Dao. Although it was not as good as the Dao in quality and quantity, it would not be polluted by the Dao of the original power. Therefore, the two of them naturally took the position of saint without any scruples. If these five people could still achieve the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian when the Dao was polluted, then the two of them would be convinced and have nothing to say.

After the two of them agreed, Hengming returned to Yingzhou Island.

Hengming's return did not disturb anyone. Only Taoist Wuji and Taoist Hongchen greeted him outside Yuhua Palace.

Looking at the deserted Yingzhou Island, Taoist Wuji sighed, "After so many years, there are only three of us talking on Yingzhou Island. I thought my corpse would be cut out by me, but it seems that it will not happen."

Heng Ming smiled and said, "The secret method of beheading the three corpses is only for the secret method of the heart of Tao. It doesn't matter whether the third corpse is beheaded or not. Hong Chen, can you take down the position of the Lord of the North Sea? Can you find anything unusual again?"

Taoist Hongchen pondered for a moment, nodded, then shook his head and said, "I did take the title of Lord of the North Sea, but the appearance of a large tripod to block the attack as in the past has not happened again. I can't see any clues. Should I continue to take the other two seas?"

Heng Ming shook his head slightly and said, "I see that the luck on Kunlun Mountain is different. The pure energy and spiritual clouds that were originally condensing are actually showing signs of splitting. It is obvious that there are conflicts among the Three Pure Ones. Perhaps the separation of the Three Pure Ones is not far away.

I think Xuanzhou Island is the future Jin'ao Island, so don't worry about it. There are frequent disasters in the East China Sea. Those two won't live long. You two can use the avenue in my body to improve your cultivation. You will be of great use in the future."

Taoist Hongchen and Taoist Wuji agreed, and then went into the Hengming Qingyun.

Hengming summoned the Mysterious Blue Lotus and sat on it, and casually integrated the status of the Lord of the North Sea into the Canghai Mingyue Pearl. When he was about to practice, he saw two spiritual lights coming from the west in the distance. He guessed who was coming, so he summoned Jin Chanzi and Wu Se Lu and said, "You two go outside Yingzhou Island and welcome Zhenren Zhunti and Zhenren Jie Yin."

The matter of Hengming's return was extremely secret, and few people knew about it yet. The two of them were summoned by Hengming while they were practicing, and they were extremely surprised. When they were about to pay their respects, they heard Hengming's instructions and hurried out of the island to greet him.

Jie Yin and Zhunti did not know that Heng Ming was on Yingzhou Island originally. Instead, they went to Taisu Heaven to visit Nuwa and asked Nuwa, only then did they learn about Heng Ming's whereabouts, and then they headed towards Yingzhou Island.

The two of them saw two boys standing outside Yingzhou Island from afar. Knowing that Hengming had sent people to greet them, he also lowered his escape light and stood in front of the two of them.

Zhunti stepped forward with a kind face and asked, "Are you disciples of Brother Hengming?"

When Jin Chanzi saw this person, he felt a little nervous. After all, he had been in Yuhua Palace for a long time, and apart from Nuwa, he had rarely had the experience of welcoming a great god.

But the Five-Colored Deer followed Hengming and was well-informed. He remained calm in the face of danger, and calmly bowed and said, "Greetings to Master Zhunti and Master Jieyin. The two of us do not have the blessing to be the master's disciples. We are just two boys. Please follow me, the master has been waiting for a long time."

After hearing this, Jie Yin secretly praised the Five-Colored Deer for its good character. After thinking about it, he finally handed the Five-Colored Deer a magical treasure. After all, Heng Ming had bestowed the two magical treasures, Sunlight and Moonlight, on the Five-Colored Deer when he visited them before. Although they cherished the treasures, they did not want to lose face here.

Zhunti smiled and handed Jin Chanzi a string of prayer beads, saying, "Although this is not a magical treasure, it is a prayer bead that I personally refined for ten thousand years. It is called the Bodhi Prayer Bead. It is quite powerful. You can take it and play with it."

Jie Yin looked at Zhunti with a little surprise. Although the rosary looked ordinary, it contained extremely profound Buddhist truths. Zhunti originally refined it to give it to his new disciple named Medicine Master, but he didn't expect that he gave it to Jin Chanzi today.

Jie Yin looked at Jin Chanzi carefully, and his mind couldn't help but move slightly. It seemed that there was an extremely secret connection between the two of them, and they might meet again in the future.

Wu Se Lu and Jin Chan Zi were not very moved. After thanking the two for the treasures, they took them to Yu Hua Palace.

Heng Ming sat on the blue lotus of Xuanshui, slightly closing his eyes. Above his head was a mysterious river that stretched as far as the eye could see. The river was rolling and surging, dazzling and glittering, as if countless phantoms of sentient beings could be seen in it. When Jie Yin and Zhunti saw this, they were also shocked. Then they took two steps forward outside the palace gate, bowed, and said, "Hello, Senior Brother."

Heng Ming opened his eyes and said with a smile, "My two junior brothers, if you have time, please come to my Yingzhou Island for a gathering. Are you here to congratulate me on my achievement of Hunyuan Daluo?"

Jie Yin and Zhunti looked at each other, and finally bowed together, saying in unison: "Brother, please explain to us the secret of the primordial purple energy. We will be grateful forever."

Hengming sat motionless on the water lotus. He raised his hand slightly, and the two men stood up uncontrollably. A cushion appeared under them, and they sat down involuntarily. Even though their cultivation was only a few steps away from Hunyuan Daluo, they could not resist at all and felt the terrifying power of Hengming.

Heng Ming said to the two men with a smile on his face, "We are all brothers, why do we have to do this? I just wonder what secrets of the Hongmeng Purple Qi you two brothers are trying to find out?"

Jie Yin asked first: "May I ask, Senior Brother, how can we become saints?"
