Sect Leader Tongtian did not know if it was an illusion, but he felt that Hongjun's gaze seemed to linger on him for a moment.
"I wish you a long life! I didn't know you were coming, so I didn't welcome you from afar. Please forgive me. "
Sect Leader Tongtian suppressed his doubts and hurriedly went forward to welcome Hongjun with Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun.
Daoist Jie Yin and Daoist Zhun Ti also bowed at the side with respectful expressions. They were not in awe because of Hong Jun's seniority, but because Hong Jun's strength was too powerful.
"Hongjun seems to suspect me."
Sect Leader Tongtian once again felt like he was being watched. This feeling seemed to be an illusion, but at his current realm, how could there be an illusion?
If Yuanshi Tianzun and the others were watching, he could instantly sense it. In the entire Original World, there was only one person who could do this.
In front of him was a peaceful, ruddy old man with a bamboo cane.
Hongjun nodded gently at Daoist Zhunti and Daoist Jie Yin. Then, he looked at Sect Leader Tongtian and asked, "Why did you set up this array? The Immortal-Slaying Array is a killing array. If you're not careful, you might kill countless living beings."
Sect Leader Tongtian's expression did not change. He looked calm. He took a step forward and explained, "My three Senior Brothers respected Master's decree and signed the List of Deification. However, after many discussions, we couldn't reach an agreement.
"I made an agreement with my two Senior Brothers to fight and then sign the List of Deification. Now, the list of the List of Deification has been determined."
After Sect Leader Tongtian finished speaking, he stood aside respectfully and waited for Hongjun's reaction.
Hongjun was shocked and doubtful. Yuanshi Tianzun and the others were fighting against him, and Sect Leader Tongtian was at an absolute disadvantage. Shouldn't Sect Leader Tongtian hate Yuanshi Tianzun and the others now? Shouldn't he curse Laozi and Yuanshi?
Why didn't I see any resentment from Sect Leader Tongtian now?
"Did something unexpected happen in the Immortal-Slaying Array?"
Hongjun thought to himself. He was only slightly surprised that Sect Leader Tongtian used the Immortal-killing Formation to suppress Yuanshi Tianzun. When Sect Leader Tongtian took out eight killing swords and even formed a strengthened version of the Immortal-killing Formation, Hongjun was completely shocked.
His first thought was that Tongtian was related to the mastermind behind Erlo, the mastermind behind the sneak attack on him.
In order not to alert the enemy, Hongjun sat in the Purple Cloud Palace and watched quietly. He planned to lure the snake out of its hole and find the mastermind in the darkness.
"Could it be that Sect Leader Tongtian, Yuanshi Tianzun, and the other three have reached an agreement in the Immortal-slaying Formation?"
Hong Jun's expression did not change, but all sorts of guesses and suspicions appeared in his mind.
When Primeval Lord of the Beginning and the other three entered the Immortal-killing Formation, Hongjun naturally planned to spy on the situation inside. However, when he wanted to spy on the situation inside, he felt that Sect Leader Tongtian might discover that he was spying on them.
The Immortal-killing Formation formed by the eight killing swords was too perfect. It was like a flawless Small World, integrated and flawless.
If his divine consciousness touched the Immortal-killing Formation, it would be sensed by the formation. Then, Sect Leader Tongtian, who was in charge of the Immortal-killing Formation, would notice that someone was spying on them.
If Sect Leader Tongtian and the other Sages knew that he had been secretly spying on them and fighting to the death, it would be difficult to explain.
He was the Master of Sect Leader Tongtian, Laozi, and Primeval Lord of the Beginning. If there was an internal strife between his disciples, he should come forward to stop it.
Now that he did not come forward to stop it, it seemed that he was plotting some kind of shocking conspiracy.
If Sect Leader Tongtian and the other two did not discover him, he would not even need to explain. Even if some bold disciple asked him for the reason, he could say that he was in seclusion and did not know anything about what was happening outside. He did not know that Sect Leader Tongtian and the others had an internal strife.
Therefore, Hong Jun obviously chose the latter. He chose to risk being discovered by Sect Leader Tongtian to spy on the situation inside the Immortal-killing Formation, or to wait for the Immortal-killing Formation to be removed before continuing.
"Humph! Why did you kill the disciples of the Clan of Enlightenment? The 12 Golden Immortals of the Clan of Enlightenment are all powerful, but they were killed by your disciple. Those people are not on the list. "
Hong Jun could not help but snort coldly. His mind was in a mess. He felt that Sect Leader Tongtian seemed to be out of his control, which was a very bad sign.
The appearance of Erlo, the leader of the conspiracy, had already indicated that there might be a mysterious expert secretly spying on him.
Now, Sect Leader Tongtian might have reached an agreement with the mastermind behind the scenes and was plotting something. This was something he could not tolerate.
In this world, only he had the final say, and he was the only one who could speak.
"Master, you asked the three of us to sign the List of Deification. On the list signed by Senior Brother Primeval Lord of the Beginning are Immortal Taiyi and the others. Why do you say so?"
Sect Leader Tongtian pretended to be surprised, as if he had been wronged.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Senior Brother Primeval Lord of the Beginning."
Sect Leader Tongtian looked at Primeval Lord of the Beginning.
"Master, Immortal Taiyi and the others are indeed on the list signed by me."
Primeval Lord of the Beginning said hesitantly when he saw Sect Leader Tongtian looking at him.
"Did he say that he took the initiative to sign it? Or was he forced to sign it because he was beaten by Sect Leader Tongtian and couldn't fight back? "
Of course, Primeval Lord of the Beginning chose the former. Anyway, those disciples were already dead, and it was a foregone conclusion that they would be on the List of Deification.
To expose the truth and slap Sect Leader Tongtian in the face again, or to help Sect Leader Tongtian cover up this lie and save his face. This choice was too easy for Primeval Lord of the Beginning to choose.
Hongjun was speechless.
"You're right, Junior Brothers."
Seeing Hongjun's questioning eyes, Laozi said without hesitation.
It was not easy for him and Sect Leader Tongtian to settle this karma, and he didn't want to have anything to do with Sect Leader Tongtian anymore.
If he betrayed Sect Leader Tongtian at this time, not only would he offend Primeval Lord of the Beginning, but he would also form a karma with Sect Leader Tongtian.
If Sect Leader Tongtian came to him to settle this karma, who would help him?
Hongjun?
In the Immortal-killing Formation just now, the four of them were beaten so badly, but Hongjun didn't help him. Laozi now understood that Hongjun was also unreliable, and he could only rely on himself.
He didn't believe that Hongjun didn't notice their big movements.
In other words, Hongjun found out and didn't care about their lives at all.
Moreover, they had just signed the Five Saints Friendship Agreement. If they revealed what happened in the Immortal-killing Formation, it would be a violation of the Five Saints Friendship Agreement.
If the violation of the Five Saints Friendship Agreement led to the appearance of the guarantor, Wanjie Lou, who was able to be the guarantor of the Five Saints Friendship Agreement, his strength was definitely above the Five Saints.
Otherwise, the Five Saints Friendship Agreement would be worse than a piece of waste paper.
"My Senior Brothers heard that only the Four Saints can break the Immortal-killing Formation, so they specially came to try the formation. Sorry for disturbing you."
Hongjun didn't plan to ask Taoist Zhunti and Taoist Jie Yin, but the two of them took the initiative to explain on Sect Leader Tongtian's behalf.
After this battle, Sect Leader Tongtian's position could no longer be shaken. At this time, it was purely seeking death to embarrass Sect Leader Tongtian, so it was better to take the initiative to do Sect Leader Tongtian a favor.
Hongjun was speechless.
"I ordered the three of you to sign the List of Deification, but why is it so chaotic? Yinshang's luck rose, and Western Zhou's luck fell? Did you not take my orders seriously? "
Although Hongjun was surprised and embarrassed by the series of unexpected answers, his expression didn't change. He glanced at Sect Leader Tongtian and the other two and changed the topic without batting an eyelid.
"Master, we wouldn't dare."
Sect Leader Tongtian and the other two explained.
"The three of you, come here and kneel."
A trace of gloom flashed in the depths of Hongjun's eyes, but he secretly planned in his heart. He knew that he had to use a special method, so he couldn't help but speak slowly.
Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi did not hesitate. After hearing Hongjun's instructions, they quickly walked in front of Hongjun and hurriedly bowed in front of him.
Although Sect Leader Tongtian sneered in his heart, his face was filled with fear and trepidation. He kept the same pace as Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun and knelt in front of Hongjun.
Seeing the three people kneeling in front of him, Hongjun expressionlessly took out a black gourd from his sleeve and poured out three scarlet elixirs. The fragrance of elixirs filled the air, intoxicating them as if they were peerless elixirs.
Laozi, who was familiar with the grades of elixirs, was even more respectful when he saw the scarlet elixirs poured out by Hongjun. This was a type of elixir that surpassed the Nine Cycles Golden Elixir.
The lines on the elixirs were self-contained, as if they were formed naturally. Although the fragrance of elixirs filled the air, the elixirs' effects were not reduced at all. They were like a small world that was mixed together, perfect and flawless.
"Swallow them into your stomachs. I have something to say."
Hongjun distributed the scarlet elixirs to Sect Leader Tongtian and the other two, one each.
Taoist Jieyin and Taoist Zhunti were envious when they saw this, especially Taoist Zhunti, who almost couldn't help but snatch them. Such a peerless elixir would probably have an amazing effect on Sages.
"Master, what magical effect does this scarlet elixir have?"
Just when Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi were about to swallow the scarlet elixirs, Sect Leader Tongtian suddenly asked.
As soon as Sect Leader Tongtian's voice fell, Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi subconsciously looked at Hongjun. They had followed Hongjun's orders for a long time, and they would do whatever Hongjun said.
The moment they took the scarlet elixirs and heard Hongjun's instructions, they subconsciously swallowed them.
Now that they heard Sect Leader Tongtian's question, Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi looked at Hongjun expectantly.
Could it be that when Hongjun saw the appearance of Ruthless the Great Emperor and the other three, he finally felt the danger and gave them the elixirs to increase their strength? They wondered how much this scarlet elixir could increase their strength.
Taoist Jieyin and Taoist Zhunti were also curious and jealous. They were very curious about what kind of heaven-defying elixir could have an effect on Sages.
They didn't know what amazing magical effect the scarlet elixir had.
Hongjun was speechless.
