Primordial Era: I am the First Green Ox, the Senior Brother of the Three Religions

Chapter 377 Powerful Beings Gather at Zixiao Palace

Upon the arrival of the six celestial saints, all the quasi-saints present bowed in unison.

"Greetings, Saint!"

In the primordial world, sages were revered.

As the saying goes, all those below the level of a sage are but ants, and even a quasi-sage is no exception.

Now that the six sages of the heavens have arrived together, the quasi-sages present are naturally extremely respectful.

Seeing this, the Three Pure Ones and the other six saints simply nodded and didn't pay much attention.

At this moment, Haotian and Yaochi, the two attendants, quickly stood up and stepped forward, saying in unison:

"Greetings to all the sages!"

As they spoke, the two stepped aside, adopting a respectful gesture of invitation.

The saints remained silent and walked straight into the Zixiao Palace.

After the saints entered, Haotian turned his gaze and swept it over the many quasi-saints present before speaking:

"Please come in, everyone!"

"Take your seats in order!"

Upon hearing this, the many Quasi-Saints did not delay and entered the Zixiao Palace one after another.

Upon entering the Zixiao Palace, one sees seven prayer mats placed at the very front of the main hall, where the six sages from the heavens who had arrived earlier are already seated.

Behind these seven futons were countless ordinary futons.

Seeing this, the many quasi-saints silently found seats and sat down, none daring to make a fuss.

After all, this is the Daoist temple of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who is a being who surpasses even a saint.

Just as many powerful beings were gathered at their respective dojos, a stream of light suddenly fell from the chaotic void outside the Purple Cloud Palace.

A man dressed in a black Taoist robe could be seen emerging from the shimmering light.

The man was none other than Niu Ben.

Upon seeing Niu Ben arrive, Haotian and Yaochi, who were waiting outside, were overjoyed and quickly got up to go forward.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Niu Ben!"

Upon approaching, the two bowed respectfully.

Niu Ben nodded and smiled in acknowledgment. Without further ado, he slowly walked towards the Zixiao Palace.

Before long, the person arrived inside the hall.

Niu Ben's arrival immediately attracted the attention of all living beings present.

Everyone knows that Niu Ben is now a transcendent figure.

Among all the saints in the heavens, he absolutely deserves the title of the first saint.

Even his master, the Supreme One, was slightly inferior to him.

Amidst the attention, the quasi-saints present rose to pay homage:

"Greetings, Daoist Niu Ben!"

Niu Ben nodded slightly and walked straight toward the prayer mat at the very front of the main hall.

Before ascending the steps, he bowed deeply to the Three Pure Ones:

"Greetings, Master! Greetings, my two senior uncles!"

"Um."

Upon hearing this, the Three Pure Ones nodded with smiles on their faces.

He was extremely satisfied with his disciple, Niu Ben.

Then, Niu Ben glanced indifferently at the Western Sect's Jieyin and Zhunti, then smiled and gestured to the Sage Nuwa before sitting down on the last futon at the front.

Upon seeing this, the Sage Zhunti was secretly displeased.

"snort!"

"This Niu Ben is really... putting on airs!"

"Back then, wasn't he extremely respectful to me and my senior brother?"

"Now that he has attained the Primordial Dao, he has become somewhat arrogant."

Zhunti muttered to himself, harboring deep resentment towards Niu Ben.

Back then, before he and Jieyin had attained sainthood, they joined the Purple Palace Celestial Court of the Eastern King Duke.

Subsequently, a great war broke out between the demon race and the Purple Mansion Celestial Court. Instead of helping the Purple Mansion Celestial Court, the two took advantage of the chaos and plundered many of the Purple Mansion Celestial Court's creatures.

In addition, they also planned to loot the entire treasure trove of the Purple Mansion Immortal Court.

But who would have thought that when Kasyapa went to collect the treasures from the treasury, he ran into Niu Ben, who had come on his way, and was eventually driven away by Niu Ben.

When Nuwa saw Niu Ben sitting side by side with herself and the other six sages of the heavens, she was filled with deep emotion.

"He's truly amazing!"

"Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, they would be able to sit on equal footing with us sages?"

Nuwa sighed inwardly.

Although Niu Ben had taken a primordial spiritual treasure from her because of Xihe's matter.

But in her heart, she still greatly admired Niu Ben.

"Giggle..."

When Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi saw this scene, they were so angry that they gritted their teeth.

The two brothers had a considerable grudge against Niu Ben.

Emperor Jun took a liking to Xihe and intended to marry her to complete their celestial marriage, but he failed in the end due to Niu Ben's obstruction.

As for Donghuang Taiyi, before Niu Ben attained the Primordial Dao, he fought with him in the East Sea and was defeated and forced to flee in a sorry state, losing his position as the number one sage.

"I wonder when I'll be able to become a saint?"

"Once I become a saint, I will definitely teach this bull-like bull a lesson!"

Donghuang Taiyi secretly made a vow.

Then, many powerful figures waited inside the Zixiao Palace.

Not long after, a figure silently descended onto the high platform inside the hall.

The newcomer had white beard and hair, a kind face, and an aura that was perfectly integrated with the natural world, as if he were one with the Dao of this place.

Who else could it be but Dao Ancestor Hongjun?

Upon seeing Hongjun's arrival, everyone in the hall rose and bowed deeply to him.

"Greetings, teacher!"

"Greetings, Dao Ancestor!"

Hongjun remained calm, his deep gaze sweeping over everyone below, and said indifferently:

"Please sit down!"

Afterwards, everyone sat down again, all of them extremely curious about why Hongjun had summoned them here.

After a moment of silence, Hongjun smiled slightly and said again:

"I'm sure you're all eager to know why I've summoned you all to Zixiao Palace."

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in the eyes of all the creatures present.

After a slight pause, Hongjun continued:

"Actually, there are three things I want to announce by summoning you all here today!"

Upon hearing Hongjun's words, all living beings, whether saints or quasi-saints, held their breath and listened attentively.

In their view, something that Hongjun treated with such seriousness must be no small matter.

Then, Hongjun didn't keep them in suspense and said directly:

"This is the first thing."

"It's to let everyone know about the extraterrestrial chaotic beings that recently invaded my primordial world."

"I have already learned this through my analysis with the Heavenly Dao."

"They come from a world called the Devouring Universe Realm. However, the origin of the Devouring Universe Realm has been exhausted, its laws have collapsed, and it has entered the countdown to complete destruction."

"In order to survive and even transcend, the Holy Ancestor of that realm plundered the origins of all the heavens and myriad realms to replenish himself."

"Not long ago, due to the outbreak of the Lich War, the violent turbulence caused by it led to the discovery of the coordinates of my primordial world outside by their vanguard."

"I'm afraid it won't be long before the Holy Ancestor of the Devouring Universe Realm personally leads his army to attack our Primordial World again."

"They want to seize the origin of my primordial world in order to prolong its remaining existence, mend its damaged Dao, and glimpse the opportunity for transcendence."

Hongjun spoke calmly, but to the ears of the many beings present, it was like a thunderclap.
