#894 - Sanqing Realm, where Nuwa resides

Cloud Recesses Unknown Depth.

A mysterious place unknown to most.

A figure stepped out from the void, lotus platforms blooming beneath his feet. His aura was ethereal, as if seated on clouds, his white robe fluttering. It was none other than the Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning.

Beneath him, layers of cloud, like cotton, formed a continent. Upon it, palace towers stood tall, with seven-colored light weaving through them, resembling a fairyland.

In the core area of this mystical place, a colossal azure cauldron was situated. Carved onto the cauldron's body were flying birds, fish, insects, mountains, rivers, seas, rare and exotic beasts, as well as the sun, moon, and stars. There were even numerous human-shaped carvings, lifelike and vivid, holding various mystical magical artifacts, each in a different pose, as if imprinting real people onto it.

Nine gemstones were embedded on the cauldron's lid, shimmering like colored glaze, exquisitely beautiful.

On either side of this bronze cauldron, an old man sat cross-legged. One wore an azure robe, a horsetail whisk resting on his lap, his face fair and without a beard, a cloud-pattern swirling between his brows, his expression serene.

The other wore a golden robe, his black hair coiled into a bun secured with a golden hairpin, a lightning cloud pattern glowing between his brows. Although his eyes were closed, he exuded an imposing pressure that inspired awe.

These two were none other than the Yuqing, the Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning, and the Shangqing, the Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure, two of the Three Pure Ones.

"Brother, why the worried frown? Have you brought that monkey back?"

The Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning remained with his eyes closed, yet his voice echoed out.

The Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning, floated over, a look of shame flashing across his face, and he performed a Daoist salute: "Reporting, Senior Brother, I failed!"

"What?"

Upon hearing this, both the Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning and the Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure opened their eyes, turning their heads in astonishment.

"Even if that monkey received the favor of both Nüwa and Bodhi, and his cultivation wasn't damaged, he shouldn't be able to escape your grasp. What exactly happened?"

The lightning cloud pattern between the brows of the Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure flickered twice, revealing a hint of murderous intent.

The Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning also showed a look of confusion.

The Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning, sighed, recalling his encounter with the black-robed doppelganger, a trace of dread flashing in his eyes, and then recounted the events in detail.

After listening, both the Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning and the Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure revealed expressions of astonishment.

What?

A primordial being who existed even before their birth?

What a joke!

They, the three of them, had stood at the pinnacle of the God Realm for so many years, having long considered themselves the most powerful beings in this world. How could someone exist who was born even earlier and was even more powerful than them?

If there was such a person, why had they only appeared now? Why, when the three of them meticulously planned and plotted the Heavenly Dao, bringing about the Great Tribulation, had this person not shown any signs of intervention?

With such terrifying power, how could the other party not have been injured at all!

The Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning, shook his head, asserting: "When he was taken into the Heaven and Earth Furnace, not only was his divine body unharmed, but even his robes were not damaged in the slightest. There can be no mistake!"

The Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning and the Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure inhaled sharply.

How could such a terrifying figure exist in this world?

Since the success of their plan, they had been refining the gods. As they controlled more and more of the power of the Heavenly Dao, their confidence in themselves had grown stronger and stronger.

Now, they had already planned to refine all the Celestial Venerables and Sages before embarking on the final plan.

However, the news brought back by the Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning, was a blow to the head of both of them!

There was actually someone in this world who was even more powerful than the three of them!

Moreover, according to the Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning's description, it seemed that even if the three of them joined forces, they might not be a match for this person!

"Who exactly is this person! Have you tried to deduce anything?"

The Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning asked, suppressing the fear in his heart.

The Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning, sighed: "Of course, I have tried to deduce it, but this person's past and future lives are shrouded in the secrets of heaven, and it is impossible to investigate even a shred of information. The only thing I know is that his Daoist name is Qingyun Daoren!"

Qingyun Daoren…

The Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning and the Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure chewed on this name, finding that they had no impression of it at all.

Such a terrifying figure, who had been previously unknown, was simply unbelievable!

The entire Three Pure Realms fell silent.

The Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning and the Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure were somewhat unconvinced and were silently calculating this person's information. However, they quickly discovered that, as the Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning, had said, everything about this person was obscured by the vast secrets of heaven, making it impossible to deduce!

Terrifying!

Too terrifying!

A cloud of gloom enveloped the hearts of all three.

Originally, the three of them had been confident in their plan, but the appearance of Qingyun Daoren disrupted their rhythm, adding concerns to everyone's heart.

If such a powerful existence were to intervene, how could their plan be implemented?

"This person is unfathomable. At least for now, even if the three of us join forces, we may not be able to match him. Fortunately, this person does not seem to care about the affairs here. Otherwise, he would have intervened to stop us in the past. Now, as long as we do not provoke him, presumably he will not come looking for trouble with us!"

The Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning mused.

The Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure snorted coldly: "The Heavenly Dao power that Junior Brother controls is the least among the three of us. Their previous exchange does not prove anything. If this person really comes to kill us, this Venerable One may not be afraid of him. Does he really think that this Venerable One's Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is just for show!"

"Junior Brother, do not act rashly!"

The Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning shouted: "We do not need to start a conflict with this person right now. As long as we steadily advance the plan, and when we refine all things in the world, all the gods and Celestial Venerables, and the three of us transform into the Heavenly Dao, what if Qingyun Daoren is powerful? Could he possibly be able to defeat the Heavenly Dao?"

The Celestial Venerable of Numinous Treasure and the Grand Pure One, the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning, immediately nodded.

The three of them then dispersed again, sitting cross-legged around the azure giant cauldron, emitting streams of divine power. The bronze giant cauldron emitted a buzzing tremor, and cries of despair echoed from within the cauldron. At the same time, another blurred human form was gradually imprinted more clearly…

In the turbulent and treacherous spatial currents, Qin Changqing and his party followed the guidance of the white monkey hair, traversing through countless fragments of realms, finally stopping in a certain place.

The white monkey hair gently floated, emitting a soft white light, and everyone could faintly feel that it contained a cheerful emotional fluctuation.

At the same time, a void realm slowly emerged in front of everyone.

"This should be the place!"

Qin Changqing smiled, reaching out his hand to tear open the realm membrane with divine power and step into it, seeking the traces of Nüwa.

However, he was shocked to discover that, with his current strength, he was unable to tear open this layer of realm membrane, as if this realm was enveloped by some kind of power.

If it were not for the guidance of the white monkey hair, everyone would not have been able to discover this realm at all.

Qin Changqing understood that this should be the last layer of protection that Nüwa had left for herself.

If it were not for this layer of protection, the Three Pure Ones would have found her long ago.

The Three Pure Ones were able to force them into such a state with their strength back then, let alone now!
