Chapter 84: Xuan Chu Obtains the Kongtong Seal, Hong Jun Visits the Pangu Palace

The struggle for the precious treasure of human destiny sparked a great war among the saints on Shouyang Mountain, which ended in the defeat of the Xuanmen sect. Nuwa and Zhenyuanzi were left alone. Houtu and the Styx originally intended to kill the saints, but Tongtian spared them out of consideration for their past relationship.

After the battle, Nuwa asked Tongtian to give her the Spirit Treasure, which left Tongtian speechless. How could Nuwa have such a big face? She had clearly lost, yet she still dared to ask for the Spirit Treasure. Anyone who didn't know better would think she had won. However, Tongtian did not refuse directly. Instead, he told Nuwa to leave the Xuanmen Sect and become a disciple of Xuanchu. Perhaps Xuanchu would be happy and bestow the Spirit Treasure upon her.

"It was my presumptuousness, farewell!" Leaving the Xuanmen was impossible. Nuwa was completely bound to the Heavenly Dao and could not be separated from it. Besides, even if she could break away from the Heavenly Dao, Nuwa would not be willing. After all, few people could give up the throne of the Heavenly Dao Saint.

After Nuwa left, Houtu said disdainfully, "Where does Nuwa get such a thick skin? A defeated opponent dares to ask for spiritual treasures. Does she really think we wouldn't dare to kill her?" As the face of the Wu and Yao clans, Houtu and Nuwa were naturally at odds.

"Alright, Houtu, let's leave it at that. We'll settle this matter another time. Let's quickly take the spiritual treasure back to the Pangu Palace to see our uncle," Tongtian said.

After saying this, Tongtian flew into the air and took the spiritual treasure. The moment he got his hands on it, Tongtian knew that the spiritual treasure was called the Kongtong Seal. It was a treasure of great fortune, and its level would increase as the fortune of the human race increased. Once the human race prospered, it was not impossible for the Kongtong Seal to be promoted to a supreme innate treasure.

"It really is a treasure!" Tongtian was overjoyed. Fortunately, he had won the battle. Otherwise, if the Kongtong Seal had fallen into the hands of the Xuanmen, they would have had a lot of headaches in the future.

In the midst of chaos, upon learning that the battle at Shouyang Mountain had been decided and the Xuanmen had been defeated, Hongjun's face darkened. Without even saying goodbye to Xuanchu, he turned and returned to Zixiao Palace.

"That Hongjun is so rude, leaving without even saying goodbye. He has no manners," Xuan Chu said with a smile. However, he was happy now and decided not to hold it against Hongjun.

Not long after Xuan Chu returned to the Pangu Palace, Tong Tian and the others returned as well.

"Greetings, Uncle (Teacher)!" the three bowed to Xuan Chu.

"No need for formalities, you all did a great job and did not disappoint me," Xuan Chu said, waving his hand.

"Thank you for your praise, Uncle!" Tongtian replied with a smile, then took out the Kongtong Seal and said, "Uncle, we have successfully completed our mission and retrieved the Kongtong Seal, a treasure of human destiny." After saying that, he handed the Kongtong Seal to Xuan Chu.

Xuan Chu took the Kongtong Seal and examined it carefully, thinking to himself, "Just as I expected, the Kongtong Seal is indeed a spiritual treasure that can be upgraded. In time, I will have another innate supreme treasure in my hands."

"Alright, I'll accept this Kongtong Seal. It will be useful in the future. You've all worked hard this time." Xuan Chu waved his hand, and three streams of light entered the bodies of Tongtian and the other two. He said, "I don't have anything good to give you. These are some source of laws that I collected when I followed Brother Pangu to slaughter three thousand Chaos Demons. Although they are not the laws you mainly cultivate, you can still learn from them."

"Thank you, Uncle (Teacher)!" Tongtian and the other two were extremely excited. Since attaining the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, they had found that their progress was very slow. If they could cultivate other laws, they might be able to make further progress.

"You should all return to your caves. It won't be long before I summon you all. At that time, it will be time for our Xuan Chu lineage to make its mark," Xuan Chu said. The human race is about to prosper. Now that the Kongtong Seal is in his hands, if the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun still want the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to return to their positions, they will have to come and beg him. He can also get a share of the spoils.

Why didn't Xuan Chu directly bestow titles upon the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors using the Kongtong Seal? It's because Xuan Chu couldn't do it, and the Great Dao wouldn't allow Xuan Chu to monopolize the rewards.

Since the Heavenly Dao relinquished its authority to the Earthly Dao, the Great Dao has begun to personally intervene in the Primordial World in order to maintain the internal balance of the Primordial World. If Xuan Chu had any intention of monopolizing power, the Great Dao would not have agreed.

If we can't keep it all to ourselves, we can only negotiate with Hongjun. With the Kongtong Seal in hand, we can take the initiative and get as many benefits as possible.

Five hundred years after the emergence of the Kongtong Seal, the situation of the human race has become even worse, with internal chaos growing. The emergence of a supreme ruler for the human race is now an urgent matter.

In the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun looked helpless and unwilling. The Great Dao had already issued its will: the sovereign of the human race must be born as soon as possible to quell the chaos among the human race. Hongjun had communicated with the Heavenly Dao many times, but no matter what they did, they could not bypass the Kongtong Seal, the treasure of human race's fortune. Without the Kongtong Seal, even if they forcibly appointed the sovereign of the human race, the sovereign of the human race would not be able to return to his position. Helpless, Hongjun had no choice but to go to the Pangu Palace to see Xuan Chu and discuss the matter of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

Hongjun arrived silently near the Pangu Palace, but was quickly discovered by Houyi. Given Hongjun's level, he could have easily arrived at the entrance of the Pangu Palace without a sound, but he did not do so, lest Xuan Chu think he was provoking him and things would go wrong.

"Greetings, Dao Ancestor!" Hou Yi was startled to see that the visitor was Hongjun. This man was at odds with his own Wuzu (ancestor of witchcraft). What did he want to do by suddenly coming to the Pangu Palace?

Before Hou Yi could figure it out, Hongjun spoke up: "Young friend Hou Yi, I have important business to discuss with fellow Daoist Xuan Chu. I hope you will convey my message."

Hongjun's attitude was very friendly, which made Houyi very uncomfortable. You should know that since the Wu and Yao tribes became enemies, this big shot has never given the Wu tribe a good look. In fact, Hongjun didn't want to, but he had to lower his stance because he needed Hongjun's help.

"Yes...yes." Hou Yi replied nervously, "Please wait a moment, Dao Ancestor." Then he turned and ran towards the direction of Pangu Palace.

"Sigh..." After Hou Yi left, Hongjun sighed. He didn't believe that Xuan Chu didn't know he was coming, but he hadn't shown up yet. He just wanted to save face. How embarrassing.

"Reporting to the Great Ancestor Wuzu, the Dao Ancestor Hongjun of the Xuanmen requests an audience," Hou Yi said to the tightly closed gates of the Pangu Palace.

"Hou Yi, please invite Hongjun in." Xuan Chu's voice came from inside the Pangu Palace.

"Yes, Hou Yi obeys the decree!" Hou Yi replied and went to inform Hongjun.

Inside the Pangu Palace, Xuan Chu was overjoyed. This was exactly the result he wanted. Hong Jun had taken the initiative to come to him, making things much easier to discuss from here on out.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanchu, this humble Daoist Hongjun has come to pay you a visit!" Soon after, Hongjun's voice came from outside the Pangu Hall.

Xuan Chu waved his hand and opened the door to the Pangu Palace. After Hongjun entered, Xuan Chu closed the door.

Xuan Chu sat high on the cloud platform, looking down at Hong Jun standing below, and sneered, "Hong Jun, I didn't expect you to have the audacity to come to Pangu Palace. Aren't you afraid I'll kill you right now?"

The Pangu Palace can isolate the Heavenly Dao. After entering the Pangu Palace, the connection between Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao is severed. He is no longer an immortal Heavenly Dao Saint, but at most a slightly stronger Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal. If Xuan Chu wanted to, he could easily destroy Hongjun.

"I believe Fellow Daoist Xuan Chu is not that kind of person. Besides, my death will not benefit you in any way. I am, after all, the representative of the Heavenly Dao, and my body is in harmony with the Heavenly Dao. If I die, the Heavenly Dao will also be harmed. At that time, not only the Heavenly Dao, but even the Great Dao will not easily let you go. I believe that with your wisdom, you would never do such a foolish thing." Hongjun smiled and said. Since he dared to come to Pangu Palace alone, he must have something to rely on. Although he could not stop Xuan Chu from killing him, if he died in Pangu Palace, Xuan Chu would not have an easy time either. At worst, they would perish together.

"I must say, you, Hongjun, are indeed a remarkable person!" Xuan Chu nodded and said, "Speak, what brings you to the Pangu Palace?"
