"I knew that you, Hongjun, couldn't afford to gamble."
Ye Xuan pinched Yuanshi Tianzun and Lao Tzu's heads tightly and laughed wildly.
"Ye Xuan, you win. Let them go," Dao Ancestor Hongjun said in a low voice.
"Ye Daoyou, let them go," Tongtian secretly transmitted his voice.
As the saying goes, leave a way out so that we can meet again in the future.
Although Ye Xuan disdained this sentence and believed more in killing, he could not force Dao Ancestor Hongjun into a corner in today's situation. Otherwise, both sides would suffer.
Bang!
Ye Xuan casually threw the two Sages out, which allowed Lao Tzu and Yuanshi Tianzun to escape death. They quickly came to Dao Ancestor Hongjun's side and looked at Ye Xuan with extreme fear in their eyes.
At this moment, neither side could do anything to the other. Hongjun could not kill Ye Xuan, and Ye Xuan could not kill Hongjun, because he was no match for Hongjun at all.
Although Ye Xuan could kill Yuanshi Tianzun and Daode Tianzun crazily, this would also anger Dao Ancestor Hongjun. The Celestial Court would definitely be destroyed by Hongjun, which would not benefit Ye Xuan at all.
Ye Xuan never did things that did not benefit him. Moreover, he had promised Tongtian to let Yuanshi Tianzun and Lao Tzu go. He could not break his promise to Tongtian.
"Ye Xuan, this humble daoist is indeed unable to kill you, but don't go too far. How about we make a pact today?" Dao Ancestor Hong Jun was silent for three breaths of time before he slowly spoke.
"Three rules?" Ye Xuan frowned.
"First, hand over the Hong Meng Immortal Qi that Cundi received."
"Secondly, from today onwards, you are not allowed to participate in the strife of the Three Realms. The so-called Saints are also not allowed to casually kill you."
"Thirdly, I want the cultivation technique of your space-time power. I will use the Creation Jade Disk to exchange with you."
"Of course, if you're able to agree to these three conditions, then I can stop manifesting in the world, and you'll be the ruler of the entire three dimensions."
"Otherwise, even if the world collapses today, I will definitely suppress you here even if I don't care about the lives of these two disciples," Dao Ancestor Hong Jun said coldly.
"Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?" Ye Xuan sneered as he looked at Dao Ancestor Hong Jun.
"Ye Xuan, although you control the power of time and space and this humble Daoist is indeed unable to do anything to you, don't forget that this humble Daoist controls the Heavenly Dao. The operation of time and space in the Three Realms is also within this humble Daoist's control."
"Hmm?"
Ye Xuan frowned slightly as a heavy expression flashed across his eyes. He seemed to have thought of something at that moment.
"Although I don't know the power of space-time, the order of the Three Realms is controlled by me. If I reverse the order of space-time in the Three Realms, I might be able to kill you," said Dao Ancestor Hong Jun.
"Unfortunately, if you reverse the order of space-time in the Three Realms, the entire Three Realms will turn into a vacuum. The mountains, rivers, and all living beings will no longer exist. You can't afford to pay that price," said Ye Xuan with a sneer.
Ye Xuan knew that Hong Jun was not lying. Hong Jun controlled the Heavenly Dao. If he reversed the order of the Three Realms, he could indeed kill him here. However, the price was that all living beings would be destroyed and the world would no longer exist. It was a lose-lose outcome.
"I really can't afford it, but you can't either, Little Friend Ye. That's why I want to make three rules with you," said Dao Ancestor Hong Jun in a low voice.
"Alright, I can agree to it, but these three conditions need to be changed," said Ye Xuan gloomily after pondering for a while.
"How do you want to change it?"
"First, I can only give you one of the Primordial Violet Vapor from Zhun Ti. I want to keep the remaining one."
"Second, I can choose not to participate in the dispute of the Three Realms. I can choose not to kill the so-called Heavenly Dao Saints. However, if anyone provokes me, don't blame me for not abiding by the agreement between us. I will definitely kill them."
"As for the third condition, it's impossible for you to want my technique to cultivate the power of space-time."
Ye Xuan said coldly. This was his bottom line.
Ye Xuan had to keep one of the two strands of Primordial Violet Vapor. It was impossible for him to return all of them to Hong Jun.
As for the so-called dispute of the Three Realms, Ye Xuan disdained to get involved with it at his current cultivation level. The only Heavenly Dao Saints left were Lao Tzu and Yuanshi. He could temporarily spare their lives.
As for the last condition, it involved the power of space-time. This was Ye Xuan's way of survival. Even if he had to risk his life, he would never agree to Hong Jun's request.
At this moment.
Dao Ancestor Hong Jun was deep in thought. Killing intent flashed in his eyes from time to time, but he calmed down in the end. This was because he had weighed the pros and cons and knew that this was Ye Xuan's bottom line.
"Alright, then I'll settle it with Little Friend Ye."
"Here's the Primordial Violet Vapor."
Ye Xuan directly shot out a strand of Primordial Violet Vapor that was caught by Dao Ancestor Hong Jun. He took a deep look at Ye Xuan before suddenly turning around and leaving.
"Wait."
Before Dao Ancestor Hong Jun could leave, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped him.
"Hong Jun, I know that you want to think about how to crack my space-time power and even want to kill me in your hands. However, I want to tell you that when I step into the Six Tribulations of the Heavenly Dao, I will definitely ascend to the Purple Cloud Palace to seek guidance from you," Ye Xuan said with his hands behind his back.
"Alright, I'll wait for you."
Dao Ancestor Hong Jun's expression changed. Then, he turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated. However, before he left, he accepted Ye Xuan's challenge.
To put it bluntly, the so-called three-point agreement today was just a way for the two of them to stabilize each other. The hidden killing intent had already been born in their hearts, and it was only a matter of who had the means to restrain the other first.
If Ye Xuan stepped into the Six Tribulations of the Heavenly Dao, he would definitely step into the Purple Cloud Palace and destroy Hong Jun.
If Dao Ancestor Hong Jun could find a way to crack the space-time power, he would also kill Ye Xuan immediately. That would depend on who was better.
As Dao Ancestor Hong Jun left, Yuanshi Tianzun and Lao Tzu took a deep look at Ye Xuan before floating away without saying a word. They thought that after this battle, the two Heavenly Dao Saints would enter seclusion and not dare to be enemies with Ye Xuan.
"Ye Daoyou, Tongtian is ashamed."
Tongtian cupped his hands and bowed. Although he had taken revenge for the humiliation of the past today, he had also made Ye Xuan and Dao Ancestor Hong Jun go against each other. If Ye Xuan died at the hands of Dao Ancestor Hong Jun in the future, Tongtian would feel extremely guilty.
"Fellow Daoist Tongtian, there's no need to do this. This is what I, Ye Xuan, owe you. I should return it." Ye Xuan smiled slightly, but there was a heavy look in his eyes.
Time. Ye Xuan needed time.
Dao Ancestor Hong Jun's appearance today gave him a lot of pressure. Although he had temporarily stabilized Dao Ancestor Hong Jun, he would definitely face a life-and-death calamity if the other party found a way to crack his space-time power.
Therefore, Ye Xuan had to step into the Six Tribulations of the Heavenly Dao as soon as possible because only the Six Tribulations of the Heavenly Dao could give him strength comparable to Dao Ancestor Hong Jun.
Each of the Nine Tribulations of the Heavenly Dao was fatal. The third, sixth, and ninth tribulations were the three major dividing lines. If Ye Xuan could pass through the Six Tribulations of the Heavenly Dao, his cultivation would undergo earth-shattering changes.
Ye Xuan had a great sense of urgency in his heart because he was not the only one working hard to advance towards the Six Tribulations of the Heavenly Dao. Demon Ancestor Luo Hou was also secretly cultivating.
One had to know that the Boundless Secular World Technique was not inferior to his Immortal Scripture. Besides Dao Ancestor Hong Jun, Luo Hou was also his greatest enemy.
