Chapter 344 The Secrets of the Primordial Immortal Realm: The Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods Actually Originated from Ancestor Hongjun?!

"What Fellow Daoist Gu said is absolutely right."

Laozi spoke slowly, his voice steady yet tinged with worry, "The conflict between the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect has reached an irreconcilable point."

"But there are probably deeper reasons behind this."

"Take the Future Buddha Relics that all parties are vying for, for example. The Chan Sect and the Jie Sect are fighting openly and covertly, while the Western Sect is also secretly stirring things up."

"There is a mysterious force at play behind the scenes, making the situation increasingly tense."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xuan's heart stirred.

He keenly sensed the hidden meaning in Laozi's words.

"Does Laozi have some profound insight? Please enlighten us."

Lao Tzu sighed softly and gazed into the distance...

It was as if we could see through the clouds and glimpse the truth hidden in the thick fog.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, have you ever considered why the various chaotic phenomena in the Primordial Immortal Realm have become increasingly serious in recent years?"

"Why are the conflicts between various forces constantly escalating? The people behind it are extremely shrewd, cleverly manipulating the desires and contradictions of all parties."

"Take the relationship between the Heavenly Court and various religious sects, for example. The Heavenly Court is a puppet."

"However, some forces are trying to use the name of the Heavenly Court to suppress other sects and expand their own power. The struggle behind this is intricate and complex."

"......."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xuan frowned and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he slowly said, "In my opinion, there is probably someone pulling the strings behind the scenes."

"But we don't know who this person is, or what their purpose is."

Laozi's eyes flashed as he looked at Gu Xuan and said, "This person is Hongjun, the ancestor from the Divine Realm."

"Ancestor Hongjun?!"

Gu Xuan was startled, even though he had heard of Hongjun Ancestor.

But I never expected it.

The chaos in the Primordial Immortal Realm is actually related to this being.

"Yes, it is him."

Taishang Laojun nodded and continued, "This Hongjun Ancestor's cultivation is all-encompassing, and he has long since transformed into the Great Dao."

"His secret plot to instigate conflict between various forces in the Primordial Immortal Realm is aimed at triggering the Third Investiture of the Gods."

"The Third Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods?!"

Gu Xuan frowned, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.

He was well aware of the terror of the Investiture of the Gods.

Every great calamity means countless lives lost and the Immortal Realm thrown into turmoil.

........

"That's right, this third calamity of the Investiture of the Gods did not arise naturally, but was caused by the Ancestor Hongjun."

Laozi looked solemn.

His tone revealed a hint of helplessness and worry.

"He is plotting something, and it seems that he wants to use this great calamity of the gods to achieve some ulterior motive."

"Judging from the recent unusual movements of various forces, his plan is already progressing step by step, and all parties are being drawn into this huge conspiracy without realizing it."

Gu Xuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Then why would Ancestor Hongjun do this? What is his purpose?"

Lao Tzu shook his head. "I have no idea why."

"But one thing is certain: his purpose is far from simple."

"Once this great calamity of the conferment of gods begins, it will surely be a catastrophe that sweeps across the entire immortal realm."

"Countless immortal sects and dynasties will be destroyed in this great calamity, and countless lives will be lost."

"Given the current situation, if a great calamity breaks out, the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect will be the first to be affected. Their long-standing grudges will inevitably lead to a fierce war, and the Western Sect may take the opportunity to reap the benefits."

"Even the Heavenly Court will find it difficult to remain unscathed, and the entire Immortal Realm will be plunged into endless chaos."

Gu Xuan felt a chill run down his spine.

He knew that Lao Tzu's words were true.

Although he had not personally experienced the power of the Investiture of the Gods calamity.

However, one can also sense that terrifying aura from the records in some ancient books.

However, as far as he knows...

The Heavenly Court has achieved its current status only after undergoing one great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods.

Gu Xuan frowned and couldn't help but ask, "Laojun, didn't the Heavenly Court experience one such calamity before its establishment? Is this the second one before the Investiture of the Gods?!"

"Fellow Daoist, do you know why the Investiture of the Gods, three hundred years ago, suddenly shattered?"

Laozi suddenly turned his teacup, and the cloud patterns on the rim turned into blood-red cracks. "It's not that the Heavenly Way is out of balance, it's that someone doesn't want that calamity to end."

"Therefore, the third Investiture of the Gods tribulation has returned."

Laozi's voice seemed to come from the deepest hell, "And this time, it's still the work of Hongjun Ancestor."

"What?!"

Gu Xuan suddenly stood up. He saw that the table was covered with densely engraved incantations from the Investiture of the Gods, dating back three thousand years.

Those causes and effects that were personally erased by the Hongjun Ancestor.

At this moment, under the catalysis of the Enlightenment Tea, it is showing mottled blood color.

Why did Hongjun restart the Investiture of the Gods?

Gu Xuan's fingertips pressed against the table, and the jade instantly cracked. "Back then, the Investiture of the Gods already designated 365 righteous gods; the Divine Realm should be satisfied."

Laozi stared at his cracked fingertips: "Because the Divine Realm lacks 'fuel'."

He waved his hand to dispel the illusion, revealing the Primordial Immortal Realm sand table outside the window. "Look at the Nine Realms and Eight Desolations, the concentration of immortal power is 70% lower than before the Investiture of the Gods."
