Chapter Fifteen: The Three Pure Ones Join the Battle

  The Ancestral Dragon carefully surveyed the casualties around Mount Buzhou, his eyes bloodshot, fists clenched, and steel teeth chattering. Turning around, he stared at Feng Yu and Mo Xuan, then let out a bitter laugh.

  "Who would have thought that after a lifetime of heroism, roaming the vast expanse, I would end up being bullied by these petty scoundrels? The grudge against these younger generations cannot be left unavenged. I wonder if next year, as fellow Taoists, you will be willing to join me in killing our enemies and taking revenge?"

  Feng Zu and Mo Xuan also nodded, the sworn enemies who were just fighting to the death had become allies in this moment, the vicissitudes of life are indeed unpredictable.

  Di Jun, Tai Yi, Hong Yun, Zhen Yuan Zi, Dong Wang Gong, Lei Ze Da Shen, Diandao Lao Zu, Haitao Lao Zu, Bai Gu Zhēn Jūn, Jiè Yǐn, Zhǔn Dī, Nǚ Wā, Fú Xī and others surrounded the four people in the middle.

  "Friends of the Tao, the three clans of the dragon and phoenix have lost their virtue. We will take the place of heaven to carry out justice. I wish you all to fight bravely in the front line." As he spoke, Emperor Jun took out his own congenital spiritual treasure, the Hetu Luoshu, and rushed straight at the Ancestral Dragon.

  Taiyi and Kunpeng also knew that Emperor Jun was no match for Zu Long, so they flew forward together. The three of them surrounded Zu Long in the center, at this point it's unnecessary to say anything else, and there's no need to talk about one-on-one combat anymore.

  Dong Wang Gong and Lei Ze Da Shen, along with Tiantou Lao Zu, blocked the Cyan Dragon together. The eight of them clashed into two groups. To say that the Ancestral Dragons' lineage was not much stronger than Di Jun's, they were just the ancestors of a tribe, possessing an aura far surpassing other great immortals, and their cultivation had advanced to the quasi-saint realm. Moreover, the previous battle had been intense and lasted for a long time, consuming a lot of energy, so both sides' combat strength was greatly discounted. Di Jun and the others were also unwilling to go all out, so they ended up in a stalemate.

  At this time, the great battle of Zhōu Shān shocked three powerful beings, namely Pangu and the Three Pure Ones. Originally, the Three Pure Ones were responsible for the great merit of opening up the sky, and they were not affected by the cycle of reincarnation. However, the great battle of Zhōu Shān still shocked them.

  Everyone has a curious heart, let alone this is the top-level battle of the strong in the vast wilderness, which is rare to see. Therefore, Tongtian suggested going to take a look. Laozi was originally unwilling to go, but seeing the eagerness in Yuanshi's eyes, he didn't want to dampen the enthusiasm of his two brothers. However, before they set off, he instructed them, saying: "Second brother, third brother, we're just going to take a look. We don't need to participate in this kind of great war. Don't get involved in any karma. We have the legacy of Pangu and deep blessings, and we will have our own opportunities."

  Yuanshu and Tongtian nodded in agreement, the three of them hiding on Mount Buzhou. First, they saw the four Ancestral Dragons engaged in a fierce battle, which not only shocked the three of them but also made them realize that the cultivation levels of these four individuals far surpassed their own. This made the normally arrogant Three Pure Ones feel slightly unbalanced, as they had never thought that they would not be a match for these Ancestral Dragons.

  Then he saw a group of powerful people fighting with the Ancestral Dragon, Tongtian and Yuanshi were watching with great interest. Laozi was unwilling to be tainted by the bloody killings in the mortal world, and just as he was about to speak up to advise the two to return to the land of Zhōu,

  At this moment, a young Taoist appeared in front of the three, stepping on golden light. The Three Pure Ones not only sized up this Taoist but saw that he was wearing a white robe without any stains, with a lotus flower shining brightly on his head. His feet were clad in hemp shoes, which seemed very comfortable, and he held a bamboo staff that was full of wonders.

  He came as a guide for the Taoist, and before he had spoken, his face was full of joy. He first bowed deeply and said, "I am Xi Fang from Mount Sumeru, guiding you to meet Pan Gu San Qing."

  Why did Jiāo Yǐn come? It was because Jiāo Yǐn was watching the battle, preparing to join in at any moment. Suddenly, he saw three Daoists appear on Mount Buzhou. If it were someone else, they might not have noticed, but Jiāo Yǐn had already beheaded corpses and his cultivation exceeded that of the Three Pure Ones by a lot. He was also well-versed in the techniques of cause and effect, so with one glance, he saw the great merit on the three Daoists' bodies. Moreover, Jiāo Yǐn had a karmic connection with Pán Gǔ from the Primordial Chaos, and he was extremely familiar with Pán Gǔ's aura. He confirmed that the three Daoists were indeed Pán Gǔ's Three Pure Ones. After careful consideration, he discovered this was an excellent opportunity to drag down the Three Pure Ones, so he went forward to strike up a conversation.

  The three Pure Ones saw the Taoist's profound cultivation and bowed their heads in return.

  "I don't know how you knew we are Pangu Sanqing." Tongtian asked with a curious face.

  "Hehe, I've heard that Red Cloud Daoist said so." This isn't a lie, Red Cloud's legs are indeed long enough, and among the great gods of the Desolate Expanse, he has seen many.

  Hongyun once visited the Desolate Expanse and accidentally entered the Three Pure Ones' place of secluded cultivation, so he had a conversation with them. This time when forming an alliance, Hongyun also invited the Three Pure Ones, but was rejected by Laozi. Hongyun still felt extremely regretful and mentioned it to Jieyin. Jieyin just used this as an excuse. "Also, Xiaodao knows a bit of fortune-telling, and observing the three Daoist friends' good fortune being deep and thick, their bodies bearing great virtues, so I dared to make a guess, didn't think I actually guessed correctly." As he spoke, Jieyin paid his respects again.

  Tongtian Yijian was extremely polite in his words, and he highly praised the three of them. Therefore, he was very happy in his heart and proactively introduced Yuansheng and Laozi to them.

  Flattery is like good talk which costs nothing, and yet it is worth something.

  "The little way knows that the three Taoist friends did not come to the Wu Zhuang Guan alliance, and they are very regretful in their hearts. Unexpectedly, the three Taoist friends are highly righteous and appear at this critical moment. The little way thanks the three Taoist friends for joining us in destroying the three clans and bringing peace and tranquility to the vast wilderness. The merits of the three Taoist friends are boundless, and all living beings will surely remember the kindness of the Taoist friends." He said, bowing repeatedly.

  The old man raised an eyebrow, and after a long while, he couldn't think of how to respond. He was originally just there to watch the excitement, but now that someone had asked him to help, if he wanted to refuse, for the time being, he couldn't find any good excuse. After all, he couldn't say "I'm here to watch the excitement, your life and death struggle has nothing to do with me."

  Tongtian was beaming with excitement at this moment, eager to try it out. Yuansheng also had a hint of a smile on his face, looking extremely pleased.

  He took a glance at Laozi's unnatural expression and silently cursed: Old fox, I've said so many good things, but you still don't plan to take action. It seems I'll have to continue flattering him.

  "Three fellow Taoists, this great war is now taking place near Mount Buzhou. Thinking of it, the body of Pangu, the Great God, has been desecrated by bloodshed, which pains my heart. The three fellow Taoists have inherited the legacy of Pangu, with high virtue and prestige, eliminating the Three Clans, a small path that is only natural. In the future, they will bring blessings to the vast expanse of the universe, and all living beings will surely remember their great kindness. I would like to represent all living beings in thanking the three fellow Taoists."

  The Jade Emperor brought out Pangu, and the Three Pure Ones again claimed to be the orthodox descendants of Pangu. It was even more impossible to refuse. They also talked about things like merit and kindness, thoroughly moving Yuan Shi and Tong Tian. The two looked at Laozi, and the meaning couldn't be clearer.

  The old man let out a long sigh and returned the courtesy. "We brothers can do something for the multitude of Honghuang, it is only right that we should not decline."

  "Thank you three fellow Taoists, let Xiaodao lead the way for the three of you." With that, he turned around and led the three people to the battlefield.

  At this time, the situation on the battlefield was still in a stalemate. Mo Xuan also came forward to assist, and Hong Yun, Zhen Yuanzi, Fu Xi, Nüwa, along with the Queen of the West, blocked Mo Xuan's advance.

  Only Feng Yu, the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan, was left on the side of the three clans. Jie Ying introduced San Qing to the various powerful gods present and paid his respects one by one. His gaze was fixed on Feng Yu's body, and Bai Gu Zhēn Jūn spoke up: "Everyone, I think we don't need to idle around anymore, let's all take action together." Everyone nodded in agreement.

  Three Pure Ones, along with Jieyin and Zhunti, led five people to rush towards Feng Yu, while Bai Gu Jingjun and Hai Chao Laozu rushed towards Zu Long. In the blink of an eye, these powerful beings formed four battle groups, growing more intense by the minute.

  Everyone burst out in anger, using their most desperate moves. Taiyi raised the Donghuang Bell, Haitao Laozu raised the Chui Tian Ding, Emperor Jun, Kunpeng and Baigu Jingjun charged forward together, surrounding the Ancestral Dragon. The Ancestral Dragon was already wounded and gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.

  The Azure Dragon's strength was originally slightly weaker than the Ancestral Dragon. Surrounded by Leize, Dongwang Gong and Tiantiao Laozu, Leize unleashed his divine thunderbolts that continuously struck the Azure Dragon's body. Dongwang Gong transformed his body with the Primordial Yang energy, making it extremely hard and resilient, allowing him to engage in close combat with the Azure Dragon without falling behind. Tiantiao Laozu's magical abilities were extraordinary, putting the Azure Dragon in an extremely precarious situation.

  Mo Xuan was the same, Qilin was originally a pre-heavenly earth spirit body, with infinite magical powers and unmatched defense. However, Zhunyuanzi had the pre-heavenly treasure map in his hand, which just happened to counter Mo Xuan's abilities. If not for Hongyun and others' slightly weaker combat strength, they would have fallen already.

  The most unfortunate one was Feng Yu, who was surrounded by the three Qing and Jie Yin's five people. These five were all future saints, especially in terms of actual strength, Jie Yin was not much weaker than him. Of course, Jie Yin did not use his full range of techniques, but only used the Jie Yin Jing to fight against Feng Yu with a clear and pure bamboo.

  Zhun Ti only brought out the seven treasures of the Miao tree to fight against him, and San Qing's hands were empty at this time. However, the three people had inherited the way of opening up the sky, their magical skills were extremely high, and for a while they almost put Feng Yu in a desperate situation.

  Zhun Ti took advantage of the opportunity to swing his Seven Treasures Tree, striking Feng Yu to the ground with one blow. He then swiftly moved forward, swinging his Clear and Pure Bamboo, hitting Feng Yu's Mud Ball Palace on top of his head. Feng Yu let out a pained cry, almost unable to bear the pain.

  Five people saw Feng Yu get hurt, and with a painful killing move, countless spells hit his body. For a moment, Feng Yu's tall figure seemed to be beaten into a pile of minced meat.

  Suddenly, a flame burst out from Feng Yu's body, quickly enveloping his extremely damaged body.
