Chapter 55: The Crimson Cloud Falls, the Purple Qi

  Wuji lived in the Cangying tribe for a thousand years, witnessing the growth and development of the human race. Wuji suddenly felt that he could now cut out the good corpse, and was about to go into seclusion to do so. Unexpectedly, a violent spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly occurred hundreds of thousands of miles away in the Shouyang Mountains. Wuji guessed that it might be two quasi-saints engaging in a battle of magic.

  Wuji was about to remain indifferent, but suddenly he had a feeling of being lost in his heart. As time passed, Wuji's feeling became stronger and stronger. Wuji could no longer continue to practice the Corpse Severing Scripture, his mind was always restless.

  Wuji decided to go out and take a look, Wuji spent some time and arrived at the scene, but Wuji hid himself. Wuji also found that there were not many cultivators around who had broken through to the quasi-saint level. As for those who did not discover Wuji, it was uncertain whether they existed or not.

  Wuji only saw in a not far away place, Wuji saw a Taoist wearing a red Taoist robe facing a gloomy-looking Taoist and said: "Kunpeng thief, I ask myself that there is no cause and effect between us, you actually have no shame to launch a sneak attack."

  That person known as Kunpeng Daoist said: "Hongyun Daoist, you are indeed a nobleman who forgets things easily. In the beginning at Zixu Palace, if it weren't for your own foolish kindness in yielding your seat to Zhunti, I would not have been forced down from my seat and missed the great opportunity of the Dao, unable to obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi and become a supreme saint. Instead, I was bullied by others. You didn't even treasure your own opportunities, yet you also caused me to miss mine. What virtue or ability do you have that allows you to once again obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi?"

  Hong Yun Dao Ren said: "Kun Peng Dao You, at that time, even if it was wrong to be under me, but tens of thousands of years have passed, and besides, even if you still resent me, you shouldn't look for me, but should find the two Dao friends who brought us together."

  "Red Cloud, you think I'm a fool. It seems that the rumors about you being a great good person are pure nonsense. You actually dare to ask me to go find trouble with Jie Yin and Zhun Ti Sheng Ren? What is your true intention?"

  "Red Cloud, you'd better surrender now. If no one gets hurt, then you're not my opponent. Moreover, with your current severe injuries, I think it's best if you hand over the Hongmeng Purple Qi. I can still spare your life."

  Hong Yun Dao Ren said: "Kun Peng old thief, you don't need to speak so grandly, isn't everything just an excuse for the Ancestor's Hongmeng Purple Qi? Do you really think the Ancestor is a fool and will give the Hongmeng Purple Qi to you? If that happens, the Ancestor won't even have a chance to live. Even if I die, I won't let you off easy." After speaking, he began to defend himself.

  At this moment, two Taoist priests suddenly appeared beside him. One was filled with imperial aura, and the other was filled with overbearing aura. The Taoist priest with imperial aura said: "Demon Master, I thank you for planning the Hongmeng Purple Qi for me. You have worked hard, and when we return to Heaven, I will reward you according to your merits." The other Taoist priest with overbearing aura raised a giant bell, staring tightly at Demon Master Kunpeng, if Kunpeng's answer was not satisfactory, he would definitely launch an attack.

  Kunpeng Daoist looked at the two figures that suddenly appeared, and suddenly understood that even if he had made a thousand calculations, in the end he would still be doing favors for these two people. Although his partial primordial spirit was in their hands, even if that part of the primordial spirit were to be eliminated, he would only be severely injured, and as long as he had enough time, he could recover.

  Originally, the demon master Kun Peng planned to quickly leave after obtaining the Hongmeng Purple Qi. Even if that part of his primordial spirit was destroyed, he would still have time to recover from his injuries. By then, he would have enough time to comprehend the Hongmeng Purple Qi and become a saint.

  Something unexpected happened, Kun Peng's sneak attack on Hongyun didn't result in a fatal blow, instead it attracted Di Jun Tai Yi. Kun Peng wasn't confident that he could escape the pursuit of the two while being heavily injured. Looking at the powerful duo, Kun Peng had no choice but to surrender: "Your Majesty is wise, this matter was all planned by Your Majesty, since you have arrived, the rest will be handled by Your Majesty." After finishing speaking, Kun Peng stood behind the two, with a gesture of leaving everything to them.

  Di Jun and Tai Yi saw that Kun Peng was so perceptive, and it wasn't good to force him too much. The two of them shifted their target to Hong Yun's body. Di Jun said: "Hong Yun Daoist friend, I think you are also one of the 3,000 guests of the Purple Palace, we can be considered as fellow disciples. Why don't you hand over the Hongmeng purple energy? This emperor will appoint you as the Southern Emperor of the demon tribe?"

  Hongyun sneered for a moment and said, "Delusional. Even if Laozu were to die, he would not give the Hongmeng Purple Qi to you." Hongyun then loudly roared at the heavens, "The Heavenly Dao is unjust, Wu Hongyun refuses to submit!"

  Above the sky, only a sudden burst of thunder and lightning was seen, but no one expected that the red cloud would take advantage of this opportunity to suddenly self-destruct. Emperor Jun, who was relatively close, was still seriously injured under the protection of Taiyi's Donghuang Bell. The worst was Kunpeng, whose defensive means were insufficient, and he was blown up with severe injuries, his flesh and blood blurred. At present, it is not possible to make a move, and it would be good if he could survive.

  Wuji saw the red gourd that suddenly appeared where Hongyun was standing, and it flew through space to a distant place. Wuji didn't dare to use the spatial law openly for concealment, so he could only fly towards the red gourd. After leaving a certain range, seeing no one around, he directly used the spatial law to chase after the red gourd.

  Wuji finally caught up with the Red Gourd, but at this moment, a Taoist priest covered in blood appeared in front of the Red Gourd. Wuji recalled his teacher's introduction to the top gods in the vast wilderness and guessed that this was Xuehai Minghe.

  Hong Hulu said: "Minghe Daoist, please save my life, and I will thank you heavily later." Minghe Daoist said: "Hongyun Daoist, saving your life is not impossible, but you must hand over the Hongmeng Purple Qi. If you do, I will spare your life, how about it?"

  Hongyun was suddenly enraged, not expecting that as the self-proclaimed "Good Old Man of the Vast Expanse", with friends all over the Vast Expanse, at his moment of crisis, not a single person came to his aid. He couldn't help but feel indignant and sorrowful, and at this moment, he had the intention to die. Just then, two figures reappeared on the scene, Wuji knew that the man was the Eastern King Gong and the woman was the Western Queen Mu.

  The Eastern King Gong launched a preemptive attack on the Naihe River, while the Western Queen Mother went to retrieve the Red Gourd. However, the Naihe River was not one to be trifled with, and upon seeing the movements of the two, it countered by sending the Yu Tu and A Bi swords to attack the Eastern King Gong and Western Queen Mother respectively, pulling them into its own battlefield. The Naihe River then proceeded to defend itself using the twelve wild fire lotus flowers that had not been fully refined through sacrifice. After that, the Naihe River slowly made its way towards the Red Gourd.

  Wuji watched the three people fighting, and when they weren't paying attention, he secretly placed the Yin Yang Taiji diagram above them. Just as Minghe was about to reach the edge of the Red Gourd, Wuji suddenly combined his Pangu Opening Heaven Seal with his strongest move, using the Divine Gun to launch a sneak attack on Minghe Dao Ren.

  Minghe Daoist launched a sneak attack on Wuji, and before he could react, Minghe Daoist had already discovered that his own Twelve Product Fire Red Lotus had defensive capabilities. He would suffer only minor injuries, but the red gourd in front of him was absolutely obtainable. For Minghe Daoist, it was absolutely worth exchanging some light wounds for the Hongmeng Purple Qi inside the red gourd.

  It was just that the unexpected happened, and at the moment when Minghe got the red gourd, the red gourd suddenly self-destructed. At this time, Minghe and the red gourd were connected within the protective space of the 12th-grade Fire Red Lotus. The self-destruction of the red gourd caused Minghe to be severely injured, even though he quickly raised the Xuan Yuan Controlling Water Flag for protection again. The 12th-grade Fire Red Lotus was also affected by the internal self-destruction of the red gourd and the strongest blow from Wuji, which wasn't as simple as one plus one equals two.

  The defensive moment of the 12th-grade Fire Red Lotus was broken under the internal and external impact, and the 12th-grade Fire Red Lotus was also decomposed into a 9th-grade Red Lotus and a 3rd-grade Red Lotus. The surrounding heavenly spiritual energy erupted violently, lingering for a long time. Minghe Daoist was injured again. Everyone was stunned by this astonishing change, only to see that in the original place of the 12th-grade Fire Red Lotus, a sudden appearance of Hongmeng Purple Qi escaped into the sky and disappeared.

  Minghe Daoist didn't expect that not only did his plans come to nothing, but he also lost his wife and chose the wrong soldiers. He himself was injured, and the 12th-grade Fire Red Lotus was damaged, turning into a 9th-grade Red Lotus and a 3rd-grade Red Lotus. Minghe Daoist hastily retrieved the 9th-grade Red Lotus and the 3rd-grade Red Lotus. Just then, Wuji discovered Minghe's movements and quickly collected the 3rd-grade Red Lotus nearby.

  Ming River Daoist saw Sanpin Honglian being taken away by Wuji, and with new hatred added to old grudges, he angrily said: "You young man are too arrogant!" After finishing speaking, he ignored the Eastern King Gong and Western Queen Mu on one side, and went all out to attack Wuji.

  Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu took this opportunity to jump out of the war circle. Although they didn't gain anything from this, neither did they suffer any losses. They simply stood by and watched the battle unfold. As a primordial great god, Minghe Laozu was someone who would still exist in the era of saints, so he wasn't easy to deal with. However, Wuji wasn't someone to be trifled with either. Moreover, since Minghe Dao Ren was injured, if time went on for too long, he would inevitably lose.

  Both sides fought a fierce battle, but neither could gain the upper hand. As time went on, Minghe would fall into a disadvantageous position. Minghe was well aware of his own situation, but Wuji had really infuriated him, and he couldn't just let Wuji off like that. The injuries he had sustained were all thanks to Wuji.

  Ming River Dao Ren suddenly said: "Dong Wang Gong, Xi Wang Mu, as long as you two help me take down this person, I don't want his Divine Gun, and I will join your Loose Cultivator Alliance in the future, how about it?"

  The sudden proposal of the River Styx caught Yuji, Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu off guard. Yuji hastened to strengthen his attack. Meanwhile, Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu were secretly moved, and after a brief discussion, they launched an attack on Yuji. Yuji's original offensive against the River Styx had to be turned into defense. At this point, the situation was reversed, and Yuji could only desperately defend against the attacks of the three people, constantly using his spatial divine ability to teleport and dodge their attacks while flying away in the distance.

  Not long after Wuji and the others left, a Taoist who looked very similar to Wuji suddenly appeared on the spot, took away the Yin-Yang Dryness-Kun diagram that was no longer in the sky, and then instantly moved towards the edge of Wuji.
