Chapter 3 My Name is Hong Jun

  Hong Jun coldly gazed at the Fire Cloud Leopard floating in the sky, but the Fire Cloud Leopard had not yet passed the 99th Tribulation and still retained its original form.

  After the calamity, a gray, nameless substance finally appeared in Hong Jun's dantian, covering the newly formed golden elixir. The golden light of the golden elixir was blocked by the nameless substance, and the entire small golden elixir turned into a color that combined gold and gray, exuding a mysterious aura.

  The nameless substance reappeared, hidden in the Sealing God List on Hongjun's head, and instantly appeared in his dantian. This time, the Sealing God List did not absorb the newly produced nameless substance. In the center of the Sealing God List, Qin Shuang's soul had changed from transparent to gray. The Sealing God List trembled slightly in the dantian, and Qin Shuang's soul instantly flew out of the Sealing God List and merged into Hongjun's sea of consciousness.

  Huoyun leopard looked at the human with a strange gaze, ordinary humans would have begged for mercy when they saw him, but this person stood quietly there, the cold light in his eyes made Huoyun leopard feel a chill.

  This feeling flashed by, and Huoyun Bao was ashamed of having such a feeling. Facing the small Jindan period human cultivator, he absolutely shouldn't have had this feeling. In anger, Huoyun Bao flew down from mid-air, his sharp claws flashing with light, and pounced on Hongjun like the wind, wanting to tear this human who dared to look down on him into pieces.

  "How dare you, a lowly creature like you, to offer me your paw?" Hong Jun's body suddenly emitted an aura of disdain for the heavens, his entire being flashing with golden light. A knife appeared in his hand, its blade radiating a cold glow, a golden longsword imbued with boundless killing intent.

  Huoyun's sharp claws grasped Hongjun's body to no avail, and in the midst of shock, a cold light flashed by, the leopard's head had already separated from its body, and Yuanying transformed into a true spirit was absorbed into the Sealing God Chart.

  "What's with this human skin being so hard?" This was Huoyun Bao's last thought before he died.

  Sheathing his long sword, Hong Jun suddenly looked up at the sky and burst out laughing: "So that's it, I understand now, I finally understand... Hahahaha..."

  Qin Feng's soul in the Sealing God List finally understood the true meaning of Hong Jun Dao, and also fully understood the first layer of Hong Jun Dao.

  "It's broken and then established, without entering the Hong Jun, how can you know the way of Hong Jun!" Hong Jun's hand moved slightly, a gray flame appeared on his palm, the flame was lightly thrown out, and the ground immediately formed a huge pit over 100 meters deep. This is just a small spark generated by the nameless substance, even if it were to hit a Yuan Ying period cultivator, they would likely be annihilated.

  Hong Jun looked at the result of the sparks with satisfaction, smiling to himself: "This is Hong Jun's material, not broken and not established, broken and then established. I was wrong from the start, fortunately there is the Sealing God List as a medium. From today on, Qin Shuang is no longer here, I will be called Hong Jun!"

  Soul returned to its rightful place, Qin Feng's consciousness naturally recovered. Hong Jun, who had grasped the true meaning of his dao, didn't mind that his cultivation realm had regressed to the Golden Dan stage. To him, this was a new beginning, a path that belonged to both him and Qin Feng, and it was only just starting.

  "Dad, Mom, thank you!" After regaining his memory, Hongjun truly felt the anxiety and concern of his parents that day. This happy feeling made Hongjun miss them dearly.

  "Father, mother, wait for me, after I achieve great things, I will return to see you, let everyone see that your youngest son is not a waste, and will not bring shame to you!" Hong Jun secretly vowed, from the Hong Jun's mansion, he found the worst inferior immortal sword, mounted the flying sword, and left the endless desolate wilderness.

  New Divine Realm, Purple Mystic Mansion, Jiang Lize and Qin Yu were boating together when he suddenly said "Brother Yu, do you feel like Xiao Feng has returned?"

  Qin Shuang's soul has been transformed by the nameless substance and is no longer the same as before. Even so, Jiang Limo vaguely sensed something.

  "Xiao Feng is back, and she's different from before, Li Er you can rest assured!" Qin Yu smiled and hugged Jiang Li. In the Zi Xuan Fu, Qin Yu had also been observing Qin Feng, and at this moment, Qin Feng gave Qin Yu a completely different feeling, an indescribable feeling.

  The last layer of the Hong Jun Dao field in the Hong Jun Dao court, the cultivation method of Hong Jun Dao is finalized. Hong Jun recorded the complete first layer and added a sentence: "All things in the universe, one yin and one yang, with birth there must be destruction, birth and destruction intersect, yin and yang blend together, only then can they achieve great completion."

  Donglanshan, in the ancient cave where Pan Xiu practiced, Hong Jun flew here and stopped.

  "It's time to meet this old friend!" Hong Jun smiled slightly and walked through the ancient maze, entering the cave.

  "Friends don't invite themselves in, isn't that a breach of etiquette?" Hong Jun had just entered the cave when Gu Pan's voice without any tone or color came over.

  "Haha, Pangu, or should I call you Gu Pan, we've known each other for more than a year or two. Although we haven't met in person, there's no need to be so formal, right?" Hongyuan said with a smile, and he had already arrived in front of Gu Pan.

  "Do you know me? May I ask who you are?" Gu Pan furrowed his brow, this was his first time in the Purple Mystic Star and yet the cultivator before him, only at the Golden Elixir early stage, actually knew his identity, how could he not be alarmed.

  "My name is Hong Jun, the Hong Jun of this earth!" Hong Jun sat down beside the ancient plate without any courtesy.

  "Hong Jun Dao Ren?" Gu Pan's eyes widened slightly in surprise.

  "Not bad, it's really me, haha, surprised, right!" The ancient disk was cold and empty, except for that flying ship, there was nothing. Hong Jun began to miss the cocktails on Earth. He took two bottles of Maotai liquor unique to Earth and handed one to Gu Pan.

  Gu Pan took over the Maotai liquor, opened the bottle cap, and deeply smelled it, as if savoring the fragrance of Maotai: "Really, how did you also end up here?"

  "I followed you here, but this is actually my hometown!" Hong Jun didn't drink like Gu Pan, downing half a bottle in one breath and belching, instead he smiled lightly.

  "Your hometown?"

  "Yes, my father was born here, although my family is no longer here, but it's not an exaggeration to say that this is my hometown!"

  "I knew it, but how come you now have..."

  Gu Pan hadn't finished speaking when Hong Jun interrupted him: "It's only the Golden Elixir stage, right? The cultivation method I practice is special, and once it reaches a certain level, it must be re-cultivated. And coincidentally, this time is just the right time for re-cultivation!"

  Gu Pan nodded, indicating understanding. The name Hong Jun was not unfamiliar to Gu Pan on Earth, but it wasn't until today that he realized Hong Jun was not an earthling.

  "What did you come here for then?" Gu Pan asked again.

  "My hometown is here, but there's no one I know left, only you're somewhat familiar. If not for you, where would I go?" Hong Jun smiled eerily again: "Besides, I'm currently at the Golden Elixir stage, so I need to find a powerful expert to protect me, and that's you!"

  "Let me protect you?" Gu Pan was somewhat amused and speechless. A renowned Daoist from Earth, actually came to Pangu seeking protection, if this got out, it would cause a huge stir among the cultivators on Earth.

  "Hehe, just kidding, I'm just bored. But I still want to say something to you, don't always practice alone by yourself, that's too boring. When you have time, go out and play in the mortal world, I guarantee you'll gain something. On Earth, you were like this, and even after arriving at Zixuan Star, I've never seen you go out." Gu Pan hasn't left his place for over a decade, Hong Jun didn't know, but looking at how Gu Pan could hide on Earth for thousands of years, he estimated that he had been staying here all along.

  "My cultivation method is different, I need quiet..."

  "Ah, so quiet, no wonder your progress has been slow. Not entering the world, how can you comprehend the great way? Cultivation shouldn't be rushed, let's take a walk, I'll bring you to visit my old home, consider it a break for yourself, and then we'll continue cultivating when we return." Hong Jun didn't wait for Gu Pan to finish speaking, pulled him out. Gu Pan smiled and followed without refusing, and what Hong Jun said made sense, his progress had been slow over the years, he needed to enter the mundane world to practice.

  The once glorious Flame City, now no longer has the glory of its heyday, but it is still a big city. The Eastern King's Mansion where Qin Yu was originally located has long since ceased to exist. The system of enfeoffing kings had been abolished hundreds of millions of years ago, and now the four major dynasties are all centralized monarchies. Flame City still uses its old name, and the people living in the city are all simple mortals who have long forgotten the illustrious status of the Qin family in the past.

  In a wine house in Yanjing City, the most talked-about topic among people is Qi Yun, the princess of the Qi Dynasty. More than a decade ago, Qi Yun suddenly disappeared and reappeared in the Qi Dynasty after more than a decade, becoming an immortal. The wars caused by her among the four major dynasties have become a topic for ordinary people to chat about during their leisure time.

  It's been a long time since I've had contact with the mortal world, and at first, everything still feels a bit unfamiliar. But following Hongjun, I slowly begin to open up, smiling as I take in this familiar yet strange mortal world.

  Hong Jun was also the first to arrive in Yanjing City. Dong Leng Mountain and Yanjing City were where his father lived when he was a child. Although everything had changed, it still gave Hong Jun a warm feeling. Yanjing City was currently in winter, having just experienced a heavy snowfall. Hong Jun and Gu Pan sat on the second floor of a wine building, looking out at the vast expanse of white outside the window, listening to the chatter of the common people eating, feeling very comfortable.

  In two months, Hong Jun took Gu Pan on a journey across half of the Penglai Continent. Gu Pan finally regained his former carefree self and was able to initiate conversations with others, even proactively asking many questions.

  What made the two of them laugh the most during their travels was that Hong Jun, because he had kidnapped Princess Qi Yun, became a wanted criminal throughout the entire continent. Everywhere they went, there were wanted posters with his face on it, forcing him to disguise himself. Now that Hong Jun has regained Qin Shuang's memories, thinking back to those ten or so years of muddled life, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. He never thought that one day he would make things difficult for a little girl who was only in the Golden Elixir stage, and even made her swear an oath.

  Traveling on the continent of Qianlong, Hong Jun soon lost interest and learned from his father's experience. However, he didn't go to cut down big trees himself, but instead bought a large ship and went out to sea for a distant journey.

  The vast ocean, on the big boat there were only Hong Jun and Gu Pan, two people fishing and catching birds, having a great time. Gu Pan's closed heart was also infected by Hong Jun, accompanying him in this crazy play.
