The World of Passing on the Flame.
Xia Mangqing's clone met Suirenshi.
He is now a high-ranking member of the human race, and has been given the title of "Azure Emperor". His status is only below that of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, so it is not difficult for him to meet Suirenshi.
"Qingxuan, what brings you here today?"
Suirenshi smiled. On the surface, Xia Mangqing was a top-tier True God Dao Ancestor, and extremely young. He might become even stronger in the future, and Suirenshi valued him highly.
"That's how it is. When Brother Hou Yi and I were traveling in the chaotic void, we accidentally obtained a vow stone," Xia Mangqing said.
"A vow stone?!"
A divine fire seemed to ignite in Suirenshi's eyes: "A vow stone that can guide living beings and make life-bound oaths?"
"Yes, we thought the Oath Stone could solve the problems caused by the Boundless Gate and the Chaos Alien Race, so we're heading back with it," Xia Mangqing explained.
"Excellent!" said Suirenshi. "The Oath Stone is of great use; it can eliminate many hidden dangers, hahaha—"
—Qingxuan, you and Houyi have done a great service this time.
"
"Yes, I will now invite the Three Pure Ones and Buddha to come and discuss this matter together."
With a single thought, Suirenshi sent a message to the other two leaders, and soon after, the Three Pure Ones and the Buddha Tathagata descended upon the Great World of Fire.
"Fellow Daoist Suiren, what's the matter that you're in such a hurry?"
The Three Pure Ones asked with a smile, while also noticing Xia Mangqing on the side, and bowed to him with a smile.
"Qingxuan and Houyi obtained a vow stone while traveling in the chaotic void," Suirenshi said succinctly.
"A vow stone?"
The Buddha's eyes flickered, and then he smiled and said, "This is indeed a pleasantly surprising piece of good news. In this way, many hidden dangers can be resolved, especially those from the Wujian Sect and the Chaos Alien Race."
"Indeed!" The Three Pure Ones smiled as well: "We can all vaguely sense that a great calamity is coming. The appearance of this Oath Stone, which allows all parties to work together, is timely!"
"I'm thinking, should we bring Fengmo and Huanmu here first?" Suirenshi said. There are also powerful figures in the Wujianmen camp who are on good terms with them, such as the Lord of Fengmo and the Master of Huanmu.
In particular, the master of Huanmu is considered to be the most virtuous person in the Three Realms. He is on very good terms with the Three Pure Ones, the Buddha, and others, and has even given guidance to many beings in the Nuwa camp.
Even during the War of Destiny, Nuwa's camp and the Wujian Sect allowed him to remain on the sidelines and not participate.
It should be noted that another powerful figure who expressed a desire to remain neutral was the Elder Yuan, but unfortunately, no one allowed it.
The difference is obvious.
"Find them, let's decide on a direction together. A great calamity is imminent, we absolutely cannot leave any hidden dangers."
The Three Pure Ones directly stated that they were all Dao Ancestors, in charge of the Heavenly Dao, and could vaguely sense that a great calamity would occur in the future, surpassing the destruction of the ancient times, and even True God Dao Ancestors might not be able to escape unscathed.
Although they didn't know exactly what kind of calamity it was, they understood that during this time, there could be no hidden dangers, and the Wujian Sect and the Chaos Alien Race were the biggest hidden dangers.
"Seniors, since that's the case, why not convene a Three Realms Conference and invite powerful figures, gods, and immortals from all sides to come and discuss the direction together?" Xia Mangqing suddenly suggested.
"The Three Realms Assembly?"
The Buddha pondered for a moment, then nodded: "A good method. If all goes well, after resolving the hidden dangers, we can further discuss and unite all parties to devise a plan to deal with the great calamity."
"Then let the human race, the Taoist sect, and the Buddhist sect jointly launch the call. As for the location of the conference—how about we create a small world outside the ancient ruins to serve as the venue?"
Suirenshi added a sentence, and the Three Pure Ones and the Buddha all nodded. Then the Three Pure Ones looked at Xia Mangqing and asked, "Qingxuan, when will you and Houyi be able to return?"
"Within one month."
"We have enough time." The Three Pure Ones nodded. "Gentlemen, let's discuss the specific details."
"Um."
"it is good."
Suirenshi and Buddha nodded.
Soon, a message spread throughout the Three Realms:
When the two true gods, Qingxuan and Houyi, were traveling in the chaotic void, they accidentally discovered a vow stone. Now, the human race, the Taoist sect, and the Buddhist sect have joined forces to convene the Three Realms Conference.
All those who attain the status of Celestial Gods and True Immortals, regardless of whether they originate from the Pangu Chaos World, the Wujian Chaos World, or the Chaos Alien Race, must participate in the discussion to determine the future of the Three Realms.
The news caused an uproar throughout the Three Realms.
This is something that has never happened before!
"The Three Realms Assembly, calling on all parties to participate, is an unprecedentedly large-scale event!"
"With the joint meeting of the human race, the Taoist sect, and the Buddhist sect, I doubt many people would dare not attend."
"This concerns the future of the Three Realms; unless it's truly impossible to reach it, who would dare not go?"
"But what is the Oath Stone?"
This news was something that only celestial gods and immortals could know, but it still caused a huge uproar and sparked a lot of discussion among countless celestial gods and immortals.
Subsequently, some information was released, such as what exactly the Oath Stone is and what its function is.
Meanwhile, outside the ancient ruins, a small world has been created. The interior is simple, a vast ocean, while countless auspicious clouds float in the sky.
Some auspicious clouds radiated seven-colored light, numbering only a few hundred in total. In addition, there were tens of thousands of ordinary auspicious clouds, swirling around this void.
The total number of true gods and Dao ancestors in all factions of the Three Realms is only a few hundred, while the number of heavenly gods and immortals is in the tens of thousands. For example, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race each had thousands of heavenly gods and immortals under their command.
Time flies by, and a month passes quickly.
In the void, figures emerged one after another, each possessing a distinct aura: some detached from worldly affairs, some cold and indifferent, some unrestrained and carefree, and some brimming with murderous intent.
Tens of thousands of celestial beings and immortals appeared one after another, each choosing a lucky cloud to sit cross-legged, patiently waiting for the arrival of the great powers.
wow~
Celestial light flowed and Daoist chants filled the air as streams of light fell and appeared on the patches of auspicious seven-colored clouds.
The celestial energy intertwined in the void, and boundless true meaning of the Dao burst forth; this place seemed to have transformed into the Dao itself.
The vast ocean of Tao.
This is a confrontation between true gods and Dao ancestors. After all, there are powerful beings from different camps who were once great enemies or even mortal enemies. Now that they have gathered here, how can it be peaceful?
A buzzing sound rang out, and soon, a group of people emerged from the void. Each of them possessed an otherworldly air and transcendent aura, their strength far surpassing that of the true gods and Dao ancestors who had already appeared.
Those were the leaders of various factions: the Three Pure Ones of Taoism, Tathagata of Buddhism, the Three Sovereigns of Humanity, Feng Mo, Huan Mu, Mo Shou, and You Zhu of the Wujian Sect, and the Great Demon God of the Chaos Alien Race, among others.
The leaders appeared on the auspicious seven-colored cloud at the very center and waited patiently. After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, two more figures stepped out from the void. They were Hou Yi and Xia Mangqing's clones.
In addition, Xia Mangqing has a clone hidden near the Taiyin Star, ready to intervene at any time to break Chang'e's control.
Xia Mangqing's gaze swept across the area and instantly found the Old Man Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged on a seven-colored auspicious cloud. He looked very calm and did not seem to be up to any trouble.
After glancing around, Xia Mangqing withdrew his gaze and then landed with Hou Yi at the center of this world.
Immediately afterwards, Xia Mangqing tossed a golden oath stone into the air.
"It really is a vow stone—"
Old Man Yuan stared at the oath stone and gritted his teeth.
"If this matter goes smoothly, there will be no more opportunities to plot against the Three Realms. Should we take the risk and give it a try?"
Old Man Yuan thought to himself that he still had a way to disrupt this conference, which was to control the other powerful figures and make them do some things.
However, doing so carries the risk of arousing suspicion.
So he's still thinking about whether or not to do it.
However, in the instant when all living beings were looking at the Oath Stone and their minds were slightly relaxed, Xia Mangqing and Hou Yi made their move!
As soon as the seal was activated, the divine soul, imbued with immense mental power, transformed into numerous restrictive runes. Taking them as the origin, they erupted with a thunderous roar, as if creating the world and exploding at the extreme point. The mental power surged wildly, like divine light, impacting the four corners of heaven and earth, instantly enveloping the entire world.
"Um?
""
The old man was momentarily stunned, not because of the mental shock, but because he discovered that the mental control he had set up had been completely destroyed in that instant.
boom!
Almost instantly, terrifying auras rose up, most of them pointing at Xia Mangqing and Hou Yi, but a small portion of them were directed at Old Man Yuan.
"Yuan, die!"
Fuxi roared and attacked directly, unleashing a palm strike that combined yin and yang to destroy the void and press down on the Old Man of Origin.
The old man's expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously launched an attack. In an instant, the void shattered, and the power far exceeded the level he had shown outwardly. It even suppressed Fuxi.
"Leadership level?!"
"Fuxi, what on earth happened?!"
The Three Pure Ones and Suirenshi asked in succession, wanting to question Xia Mangqing about why he suddenly made a move, but they did not expect that Fuxi would suddenly rise up and attack Yuan Laoren.
What's even more puzzling is that the Old Man of Origin is actually a leader-level figure, and his strength even surpasses that of Fuxi!
"In the past, he took advantage of my reincarnation to control me with his mental power; today I will kill him!"
Fuxi was furious. In the past, in his quest for the Great Dao, he committed suicide and entered the cycle of reincarnation. However, the Old Man of Source found an opportunity and used his mental power to control his reincarnated body.
Over the long years, he was still himself in ordinary times, but he was also controlled by the Old Man of Source to do some evil things, and those memories would be blocked when the Old Man of Source did not control him.
Therefore, he is usually completely unaware of it.
But now that the mental control has been broken and the memories have returned, how could he not be angry?
"We're still here!"
The Thunder God Celestial Venerable had an even more fiery temper. Without saying a word, he used lightning to pierce through the void and bombard the Source Elder, but the Source Elder coldly waved his sleeve and dispersed the attack.
Without hesitation, he wanted to escape.
"Where to go?"
Just then, a cold voice rang out.
Xia Mangqing stepped into the void, sealing off the entire space. Even the Old Man of Origin was unable to escape into the void at this moment. Instead, he was like an ordinary person trapped in a swamp, struggling to even move.
"Another leader-level figure!"
"Qingxuan, you—"
The powerful figures, including Suirenshi, were all taken aback, but Xia Mangqing did not say anything at this moment and instead made another move.
"No! Don't kill me! You can't kill me!"
The old man cried out in terror. He realized that he could not possibly be a match for Xia Mangqing. Even though he was at the peak of the Ancestral God and Ancestral Immortal level, it was no use. The other party's level was far beyond his!
"Destroy!"
With a flick of his sword, Xia Mangqing unleashed a burst of dazzling light, both beautiful and terrifying. In a single strike, he beheaded Old Man Yuan, annihilating his soul and spirit.
When he came to his senses, only a mutilated corpse remained in the void. His severed head was still filled with terror, hoping that Xia Mangqing would spare his life, but that was absolutely impossible.
