Chapter 506: great dao purple qi, Sage's Wrath

[Detected that you have reached thirty thousand years of age, you have the following choices]

[One: Immediately emerge from seclusion and preach to the heavens, you can obtain one great dao fragment, one heavenly dao spirit stone, and a strand of great dao purple qi]

[Two: Cultivate in a low-profile manner and maintain your original aspiration, you can obtain one great dao fragment and a strand of great dao purple qi]

This was the choice triggered when Han Jue purified the Hidden Sect Disciples. He had not chosen previously and waited until all unpurified Disciples were fully purified before returning to the Daoist temple to make his selection again.

Now, he was already 30,044 years old.

The reason he did not make a choice immediately was because the attraction of that heavenly dao spirit stone was simply too great.

If the book of misfortune were to level up once more, it would become a heavenly dao supreme treasure.

Even if he went out now, as long as he did not leave the range of the Heavenly Dao, the Saints could do nothing to him.

But after calming down, Han Jue felt there was no need.

The Immortal Realm was ultimately not his Daoist field; what if the Saints had other methods?

Han Jue adjusted his mindset and chose the second option.

[You chose to Cultivate in a low-profile manner, obtaining one great dao fragment and a strand of great dao purple qi]

[great dao purple qi: After Fusion, you can obtain the qualification to become a Great Dao Saint]

Hm?

A Great Dao Saint!

Han Jue's lips curved upward.

This was completely identical to what he had guessed.

Primordial Purple Qi could make one a Heavenly Dao Saint, while great dao purple qi made one a Great Dao Saint.

However, it was only a qualification, not an absolute guarantee.

Han Jue took out the great dao purple qi. It was grayish and hazy, resembling a puff of smoke, and no effects could be discerned.

He did not need Fusion for the time being, so he placed the great dao purple qi into the Star World.

He would keep it for future use.

Han Jue could already Attain the Dao and become a Saint on his own right now, so he did not temporarily need the great dao purple qi.

Han Jue continued to Cultivate, working hard towards his own Attaining the Dao.

He was already at the Perfected Quasi-Saint cultivation, but Attaining the Dao was still very far away, requiring diligent cultivation.

Fusing with the Dao, this process was far too complex; even with natural talent, one had to take it slow.

A Perfected Quasi-Saint at the age of thirty thousand made Han Jue arguably the number one person in history.

Thinking back to the early days when heaven and earth first opened, even the Dao Ancestor took billions of years to Attain the Dao at the Da Luo realm—and that was just a legend; the actual time might have been even longer.

…

Ninety years later.

Xuan Qingjun came to the outside of the Hundred Peaks Immortal River and called out Han Jue's name. Upon hearing it, Han Jue first consumed fifty million years of lifespan to calculate a divination, and after confirming there was no danger, he moved her into the Daoist temple.

Meeting each other again, there was no scene of embracing and crying; on the contrary, it was very calm.

Xuan Qingjun smiled and said, "I'm back. Do you still acknowledge me as your Dao Companion?"

Han Jue smiled and said, "Naturally I do. You haven't betrayed me."

Regarding the matter of Xuan Qingjun, Han Jue had long mentioned it to Xing Hongxuan. Xing Hongxuan did not find it strange at all; having three wives and four concubines was very normal in the Immortal Realm, and even the Human Emperor had a harem of three thousand.

Xuan Qingjun's smile grew even richer as she raised her fair hand, a wisp of purple qi emerging from her palm, twisting like a small snake.

"This is Primordial Purple Qi, which can be used to Attain the Dao as a Heavenly Dao Saint. I brought it specially to gift to you."

Xuan Qingjun smiled, her tone carrying a hint of pride.

This was a supreme treasure that could drive all Great Powers crazy!

Han Jue, however, was very calm and asked, "Which Saint does this belong to?"

Xuan Qingjun replied, "It's the Primordial Purple Qi of the Chan Sect, originally intended to be left for the Celestial Clan."

Not Empress Nuwa's?

Han Jue frowned, suddenly thinking of a matter.

Originally, there were nine Heavenly Dao Saints, but only Empress Nuwa, Fu Xi Tian, Antarctic Celestial Venerable, Qiu Xilai, Sect Master Tianjue, Sage of Destiny, Saint Jin'an, and Great Emperor Xiao had appeared. There had always been one Saint who never showed up.

Could it be that that Saint had perished long ago?

Han Jue silently inquired.

[Requires the deduction of three billion years of lifespan. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

[Indeed perished. Currently, there are only seven Heavenly Dao Saints]

Han Jue fell into deep thought.

There were only seven Heavenly Dao Saints, but there should be more Saints, such as Li Muyi and Ancestor Xitian.

Xuan Qingjun asked, "What's wrong?"

Han Jue smiled and said, "Are you truly willing to give it to me?"

Xuan Qingjun nodded, her eyes calm and extremely sincere.

Han Jue immediately took the Primordial Purple Qi and then asked about the specific process.

Xuan Qingjun did not conceal anything either. Within the Celestial Clan, she had joined the Chan Sect's faction. Before Han Jue's Dream Message, she already knew the Chan Sect possessed Primordial Purple Qi. Later, Human Sect Saint Li Muyi sent her a voice transmission saying he could help her seize the Primordial Purple Qi.

Xuan Qingjun was very puzzled, not understanding why she would be favored by a Saint. Li Muyi mentioned internal rifts within the Dao Sect, stating that he had chosen several people to see who could accomplish the task. Afterward, with Li Muyi's help, she successfully obtained the Primordial Purple Qi and fled back to the Immortal Realm.

Hearing this, Han Jue understood: were the Saints trying to set a trap?

He quietly performed an Absolute Purification on Xuan Qingjun, consuming another fifty million years of lifespan.

The two chatted for a period of time, and Han Jue personally escorted her out to build a Daoist temple right beside his.

After Han Jue went back, Xuan Qingjun always felt something was amiss.

Having seen Han Jue, she inexplicably felt refreshed and clear-headed, as if a great burden had been lifted from her body.

Returning inside the Daoist temple, Han Jue began to perform Absolute Purification on the Primordial Purple Qi, directly consuming four billion years of lifespan.

…

Outside the Thirty-Third Heaven.

Human Sect Daoist field.

Li Muyi opened his eyes, his brows tightly furrowed.

"What is going on? Why has my Saintly Sense been cut off?"

Li Muyi pinched his fingers to calculate, and his expression abruptly changed.

"Such brilliant methods!"

Li Muyi's eyes flashed as he muttered, "Han Jue, oh Han Jue, just what kind of person are you, and who is supporting you from behind?"

He could calculate that Han Jue was only thirty thousand years old and had no past-life background.

In other words, behind Han Jue, there must be a Mysterious Great Power supporting him.

His gaze crossed the Thirty-Third Heaven, falling upon the Hundred Peaks Immortal River. The Hundred Peaks Immortal River seemed like a mass of fog; even as a Heavenly Dao Saint, he could not see through it at all.

To vainly forfeit a strand of Primordial Purple Qi…

No!

This cannot rest!

Li Muyi stood up and left the Daoist field.

…

Inside the Daoist temple, Han Jue was meditating and cultivating.

[Li Muyi's hatred toward you has increased. Current hatred degree is 4 stars]

[Antarctic Celestial Venerable has developed hatred toward you. Current hatred degree is 3 stars]

[Sect Master Tianjue has developed hatred toward you. Current hatred degree is 3 stars]

[Saint Jin'an has developed hatred toward you. Current hatred degree is 1 star]

Han Jue opened his eyes and frowned.

Why are there suddenly so many hatred prompts?

Could it be related to the Primordial Purple Qi?

That must be it!

But you guys delivered yourselves right to my door!

Han Jue did not believe that Li Muyi finding Xuan Qingjun was a coincidence. This Primordial Purple Qi must have been a scheme, but it was subjected to the System's Absolute Purification, causing the Saints to be unable to continue scheming against him, hence their anger from embarrassment.

This made it even more impossible for Han Jue to leave the Daoist field.

"Hate me, revile me! Once Laozi Attains the Dao, I will slaughter all of you!"

Han Jue thought silently. He had always believed in the creed: if others do not offend me, I will not offend them; if others offend me, I will definitely offend them back!

I'll let you guys off for now!

Han Jue adjusted his emotions and continued to Cultivate.

Just at this moment.

"I am the Heavenly Dao Saint, Sect Master Tianjue. The Hidden Sect stole the Primordial Purple Qi, violating the heavenly rules, and their crimes are unforgivable. all living beings, listen to my command: eradicate the Hidden Sect, and you shall obtain heavenly dao merit, with rewards based on your contributions!"
