Chapter 389: Chapter 277: Hong Yun’s Great Escape

Daoist Zhun Ti watched Daoist Hong Yun’s continuously fleeing figure and said to the Jieyin Saint beside him.

“Brother, it seems we no longer need to settle the cause and effect with Daoist Hong Yun.”

Indeed, if Hong Yun were to perish, all would come to an end, whether it was his karma with others or the karma between other beings and Daoist Hong Yun.

The cause and effect between the Zhunti Saint, Jieyin Saint, and Daoist Hong Yun were indeed immense.

Even greater than the karma they once had with Di Jun, so much so that both saints did not know how to repay it.

The first time Hong Jun lectured in the Purple Cloud Palace, the beings who occupied the frontmost positions were The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Daoist Kun Peng, and Daoist Hong Yun.

Afterward, it was Daoist Hong Yun’s compassionate heart that led to the ensuing events and allowed Daoist Zhun Ti and Daoist Jie Yin to sit upon these meditation cushions.

During Hong Jun’s third lecture, the beings on those six meditation cushions received the Hongmeng Purple Qi and became Saints.

Various signs indicated that Daoist Hong Yun played a crucial role in Daoist Zhun Ti and Daoist Jie Yin becoming Saints.

This was clear to both the Zhunti Saint and Jieyin Saint, especially since they had made forty-eight great vows and were closely tied to the Heavenly Dao, they dared not ignore this karma.

Moreover, the Buddhism they founded placed even greater emphasis on karma.

But this was the karma of two saintly positions, and them too were at a loss on how to repay it.

Now, it was an excellent opportunity; as long as Daoist Hong Yun perished and his Dao disappeared, all would come to an end.

“Daoist Hong Yun.”

The Jieyin Saint said softly.

Then, with a face filled with compassion, he said to Daoist Zhun Ti: “Now, the East King of the Immortal Court is leading the masses in the pursuit of Daoist Hong Yun, with great momentum.”

“If this continues, I’m afraid Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, a good friend of Daoist Hong Yun, will soon learn of it and come to assist Daoist Hong Yun.”

“Brother, even if the two of them join forces, how could they possibly contend against the multitude of beings?”

Daoist Zhun Ti said contemptuously.

Currently involved were merely beings from the Immortal Court and Daoist Kun Peng, but if they waited longer and other beings learned of Daoist Hong Yun’s situation, they would surely come flocking.

As the Zhunti Saint said, just Zhen Yuanzi and Daoist Hong Yun could not stand against so many beings.

But the Jieyin Saint did not see it that way, and he said to Zhunti Saint: “The abundance of beings does not guarantee that Daoist Hong Yun will be killed.”

“Just like moments ago, even though the East King had trapped Daoist Hong Yun and only needed to await the arrival of the four Primordial Golden Immortals from the Immortal Court to kill Daoist Hong Yun and end our karma.”

“Unfortunately, the intervention of Demon Master Kunpeng from the Demon Clan allowed Daoist Hong Yun to escape, which only increased the uncertainty.”

“Junior brother, all these beings are after the Hongmeng Purple Qi to find the opportunity to become Saints, not necessarily to cause Daoist Hong Yun’s downfall.”

Compared to other Saints, Jieyin Saint and Zhunti Saint were not focused on the Hongmeng Purple Qi, but on whether Daoist Hong Yun could survive.

Upon hearing the words of Jieyin Saint, Zhunti Saint nodded in agreement and seemed to ponder.

However, after a moment, Daoist Zhun Ti said: “Brother speaks truly.”

“If that is the case, why don’t we obscure the heavenly secrets and seal off Longevity Mountain, making Daoist Zhen Yuanzi stay put within Wuzhuang Temple.”

“Good!”

Jieyin Saint, upon hearing the suggestion of Zhunti Saint, agreed without any hesitation.

Thus, Jieyin Saint and Zhunti Saint took action together to obscure the heavenly secrets.

As Zhunti Saint had said, they did not completely hide Daoist Hong Yun’s fate; they solely obscured the heavenly secrets between Daoist Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi.

Even for the two of them, it took great effort to conceal traces with the Twelve-Grade Merit Golden Lotus and the Seven Treasures Miao Tree.

They did not wish for other Saints to detect their actions, for fear of interference.

After all, there were certain conflicts between the Eastern Primordial and the Western Primordial.

Especially after The Three Pure Ones and the two Saints of the Western became Saints, the struggle for influence over Primordial became even fiercer.

As Daoist Hong Yun kept fleeing, more and more beings came to know of his whereabouts.

The ancestors of the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin clans, and Daoist Ming He of the Blood Sea were also in pursuit of Daoist Hong Yun.

Conversely, Zhen Yuanzi was at the moment sitting under the Ginseng Fruit Tree, wondering where his friend Hong Yun had wandered off to.

The combined effort of the two Saints to seal the area left Zhen Yuanzi, with his Quasi-Saint Cultivation, with no chance of breaking through.

He had not even realized that the heavenly secrets had been obscured.

Daoist Hong Yun continued to flee, with the East King never giving up the chase.

Originally, Daoist Hong Yun was the first crimson cloud between Heaven and Earth, moving with the wind and frequently traversing through the space, his speed was naturally not slow.

But the speed of the East King was even superior; after all, the East King had once targeted Di Jun and has never given up on refining his speed.

As for the four Primordial Golden Immortals of the Immortal Court, they were slightly slower and could not keep up, only able to follow from behind at a distance.

But with just the East King alone, it was impossible to stop Daoist Hong Yun.

Daoist Hong Yun simply avoided direct confrontation with the East King, during the chase they would at most exchange a single strike before Daoist Hong Yun escaped again.

The East King naturally would not give up and continued the pursuit.

After assisting Daoist Hong Yun to break free, Daoist Kun Peng promptly retreated to a distance.
