In The Primal Chaos, My identity Was Exposed By The Heavens - Chapter 36

Chapter 36: Divide treasures and seize treasures. Heavenly Lord wins Zhu Xian’s four swords!

There was an abrupt change in the atmosphere. Not to mention the ancient, inherent beings in Purple Heaven Palace, even Hongjun wore a complex expression. However, Hongjun chose not to explain, and no one dared to inquire further. Although they couldn’t fathom the reason behind the sudden emergence of a formidable Hunyuan aura in Purple Heaven Palace, they all sensed it. At this moment, a trace of fury glinted in Hongjun’s eyes, which he struggled to conceal.

Many even pondered who had the audacity to cause a disturbance in Purple Heaven Palace, and the intruder was a mysterious and powerful Hunyuan Saint.

Could it be that, in this world, Hongjun wasn’t the sole Hunyuan Saint?

The silence was palpable. Thoughts and suspicions swirled in everyone’s minds. The recent event had left an indelible mark on Hongjun. In his desperation, he had invoked the way of heaven, and the eyes of heaven’s punishment had hovered menacingly before descending, enabling him to stand up to Ye Xiu. This was to prevent himself from being ridiculed as the Wilderness Ancestor.

Otherwise, he would have been mocked for losing the Four Swords of Jade Immortals and the diagram of Jade Immortals, even though Ye Xiu had forcibly taken them away. In the past, when there was a conflict between Taoism and demons, the Demon Ancestor Luohu had led millions of demon creatures to invade the prehistoric world, wielding the Four Swords of Jade Immortals. Hongjun had, along with the three patriarchs Yinyang, Qiankun, and Yangmei, confronted Luohu on Mount Sumeru.

After the fall of the last Demon Ancestor Rahu, the two patriarchs Qiankun and Yinyang had also perished. Subsequently, the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and the map of Zhu Xian had naturally fallen into Hongjun’s hands. But before that, Luo Hu borrowed the Four Swords of Jade Immortals from Ye Xiu, who had specifically gone to Mount Buzhou and pleaded for it.

Luo Hu had intended to take control of the supreme treasures of killing and cutting, with the promise of returning the Four Swords of Jade Immortals and the formation diagram to Ye Xiu. Sadly, Luo Hu had ended up in the West, and all his millions of demon creatures had been wiped out. Hongjun was aware of these events. Hence, Ye Xiu was the true owner of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, and it was only fair for him to reclaim what was rightfully his.

The divine order couldn’t alter this fact even if it had descended. This was why Hongjun felt both aggrieved and angry. He had to suppress the turmoil within him forcibly. He contemplated his eminent status and aloofness as a Taoist ancestor. He hadn’t expected someone to snatch it away from him. Surveying the vast wilderness, it seemed that only Ye Xiu possessed the power to do so.

“Ye Xiu, the esteemed Taoist, I’m on the cusp of attaining the unity of Taoism. When that time comes, I will make a personal pilgrimage to Mount Buzhou to pay my respects,” Hongjun declared indifferently, steadying his shaken composure.

After firmly deciding, Hongjun redirected his attention to Nuwa. His eyes sparkled with brilliance as he conjured three remarkable treasures that hovered before Nuwa.

Three treasures were bestowed: the Red Hydrangea, the Nine Days of Rest, and the Map of Mountains and Rivers. Nuwa, who had just recovered from the earlier shocking scene, received these treasures and sensed their profound significance for her future, especially the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil, which carried the most significant cause and effect.

Once her composure was regained, Nuwa quickly expressed her gratitude to Hongjun, saying, “Disciple, Ziwa, thank you, Master, for these treasures!”

Hongjun heaved a sigh and didn’t elaborate further. Instead, he cast a few spiritual lights once more. He distributed the top-grade innate spiritual treasure, Vajra Subduing Demon Pestle, and the twelve-grade merit golden lotus to Zhunti and Jieyin.

He then announced, “The heavenly saints’ possessions have been distributed.”

These words disappointed the many supernatural powers in attendance. But, to their surprise, Hongjun continued, “Pintaoist has established Fenbaoyan outside Purple Heaven Palace, containing thousands of treasures. You may help yourselves, and those destined will find their fortune there. Afterwards, I will enter seclusion to align with the way of heaven, so let us depart from here.”

A clattering commotion swept through the crowd as countless eyes fixed on Fenbaoyan outside Purple Heaven Palace. Despite being described as Fenbaoyan, it was more like a massive mountain surrounded by saintly formations, brimming with limitless opportunities, treasures, and an array of mystical weapons, leaving everyone awe-struck.

As Hongjun had said, those with a destiny would benefit even more. After Hongjun departed from Purple Heaven Palace, the hall’s occupants rapidly overtook Shenhong, dashed toward Fenbaoyan with incredible speed, and began collecting the treasures. Thousands of treasures were claimed amidst the fervor.

Worried about theft, they hastily dispersed in various directions, returning to their respective dojos to prepare for seclusion breakthroughs, and to embrace the forthcoming magnificent era.

During this time, Laozi had a prosperous haul, securing the Southern Flame Flag, the Eight Scenic Palace Lanterns, and the Wind and Fire Puhuan Cushion—all top-grade innate spiritual treasures. Yuanshi had also acquired a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Central Wujia Apricot Yellow Flag, among others. Laozi and Yuanshi were elated, feeling their newfound possessions exceeded their wildest expectations.

In their hearts, they vowed to make a strong impression the next time they met Heavenly Lord. However, unbeknownst to them, on Buzhou Mountain, Ye Xiu hovered, accompanied by four ancient swords radiating an aura of endless destruction, showcasing their lethal might. He had come to deliver the Four Swords of Jade Immortals and the Jade Immortals diagram that he had recently obtained to the Heavenly Lord, weapons that rightly belonged in the hands of the Heavenly Destiny.

Heavenly Lord was immediately captivated by the immense power emanating from Zhu Xian’s Four Swords. His eyes blazed with fascination at the formidable killing sword energy.
