This primordial world is not serious!

Chapter 601 - 376: The Foundation of Attaining the Dao, Hao Tian Appears

"Since Daoist Red Cloud is fine, what is Hong Jun's aim then?"

The gods looked at Red Cloud.

This sudden appearance of the seventh Hongmeng Purple Qi is surely not simple.

While they went about their work, everyone remained very cautious.

That old Hong Jun is so insidious, he would never do anything useless.

Justice Historian Nuwa furrowed her delicate brows; she was almost done writing the outcome of this assembly, and suddenly this happened.

"The Emperor of Heaven just said that our Heavenly Dao Committee has seven permanent directors, and the Hongmeng Purple Qi is the token of a permanent director. Does this mean Hong Jun wants to conspire to usurp power, to seize control over the Heavenly Dao Academy and even the whole Heavenly Court?"

The gods started to analyze the problem at hand.

The meeting, which was about to adjourn, reconvened as everyone sat down to discuss.

Ming River approached Red Cloud, his expression serious, and said, "If you ask me, Daoist, it might be best to just end yourself."

"Suicide is one way to eliminate one's negative strength."

"But I feel that this power doesn't seem negative," Red Cloud argued.

If you can avoid dying, then don't die.

Better to die later than sooner.

Having just attended the first Purple Cloud Palace assembly, it would be too much of a loss to die before properly experiencing the new era of life.

Ming River shook his head and asked, "Daoist, you don't want to become like Hong Jun, right?"

"Whatever his methods, no one can predict."

"So to sever causality, just die now, die thoroughly, become lost in the Space-Time River."

"Wait until Hong Jun harmonizes with the Dao, then find an opportunity to resurrect. It's the safest, most certain way."

Ming River patted his chest and assured him, "I have a lot of experience in avoiding pitfalls, I'm not lying to you."

The gods also advised, "There is some truth in what Daoist Ming River says."

"Even if suicide can't completely eliminate negative effects, Daoist, you could suppress yourself with the power of reincarnation."

"Perhaps Daoist might even take this chance to unravel the mystery from within and achieve a new realm!"

This time, everyone was very serious.

Red Cloud was deeply troubled and indecisive.

This Hongmeng Purple Qi entering his body brought very real Dao insights, and the closeness to the Heavenly Dao Origin was intoxicating to him.

But the advice from fellow Daoists and fear of Hong Jun made his heart uneasy.

While Red Cloud was caught in the dilemma, hesitant and uncertain, Zhen Yuanzi stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him, "Daoist, there's actually no rush to solve this problem."

"Regardless of Hong Jun Taoist Ancestor's intentions, you mustn't lose your composure first."

"You just need to remain true to yourself and sincerely contemplate, the future can be discussed in the future."

"When the army comes, we shall fight; when the water comes, we shall build walls to stop it. Even if confronted with danger, there might still be a way out."

Zhen Yuanzi's words were like a clear spring, calming the chaotic emotions in Red Cloud's heart slightly.

Taishang also said, "What Daoist Zhen Yuan says is very true."

"As the proverb goes, 'fortune and misfortune are interdependent.' Whether this is a blessing or a curse is still unknown."

"If Daoist Red Cloud is worried, you may come to my East Kunlun for a visit for some time."

"I can tailor an Elixir for you, ensuring it cures whatever ails you."

Upon hearing this, Red Cloud's heart filled with panic.

Taishang's words gave him a feeling more intense than what the Hongmeng Purple Qi from Hong Jun offered!

It felt as though the unknown dangers of Taishang's elixir were far greater than those of the Hongmeng Purple Qi!

"Daoist, no trouble to you, I believe there might be other solutions," Red Cloud tactfully declined Taishang's offer.

Taishang insisted, "Daoist, trust me, the quality of my Elixirs is renowned."

"Whoever has taken my Elixirs, whether Da Luo Supreme or little gods and immortals, have never given a bad review."

Red Cloud shook his head repeatedly, not daring to agree.

At that moment, Xuanqing, who had been silently observing, finally spoke again.

"The matter of Daoist Red Cloud has its own destiny."

His voice was calm yet authoritative, and it instantly silenced all discussions within the Purple Cloud Palace.

Xuanqing's gaze fell on Red Cloud, gentle yet profound, as if he could see through all his doubts.

"Since this Hongmeng Purple Qi has chosen you, it means you are destined with it, and this is the will of Heaven."

He paused slightly before continuing, "Although this item is different from the previous six and does not allow you to immediately obtain the identity of a permanent director in the Heavenly Dao Committee, as the quota is set and the rules cannot be easily changed."

"However, it can truly help you comprehend the supreme Great Dao, with numerous benefits."

"More importantly, if Daoist Hong Jun successfully harmonizes with the Dao, fully integrating with the Heavenly Dao and opening the path of Primordial Chaos, then the Hongmeng Purple Qi within you might become the foundation for you to prove the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal in the future!"

"What?!"

"The foundation for proving the Dao?!"

"Proving the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal?!"

As soon as Xuanqing's words fell, the entire Purple Cloud Palace erupted!

Among the present Holies, there were many who were once members of the Dao Alliance. How could they not know what the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal means?

That is the eternal realm of the Immortal Dao as predicted by Hong Jun.

Even if one does not become Pangu, they would be the gatekeeper on the path of the Pangu Dao.

And now, the Heavenly Emperor himself said that the Hongmeng Purple Qi Red Cloud received could possibly be the foundation for proving the Primordial Dao!

This news was even more astounding than the previous selection of the six permanent directors!

[Red Cloud truly has no small fortune!]

Almost all the gods and Holies turned their gaze to Red Cloud, their eyes instantly changing from previous jest, sympathy, and concern to stark envy!

Meanwhile, The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Jieyin, and Zhun Ti were taken aback after hearing Xuanqing's words.
