In the Purple Firmament Palace, Hong Jun frowned and finally muttered, “No, no, this karma isn’t right. How can there be such an obscure karma? Then where is Tongtian? Could it be that this fellow’s cultivation is already so profound?”

Some of the things that Lu Ping had done had a great impact on Hong Jun’s deduction of heavenly secrets.

This was because Lu Ping himself was an extremely special existence.

Hong Jun wouldn’t pay attention to those ordinary creatures, so Lu Ping had never entered his line of sight before.

But now, the Patriarch of the Heaven sect had gotten involved in some matters in the Seven Phoenixes sect.

These matters might not have been divined by others, but Hong Jun’s compatibility with the Heavenly Dao couldn’t be hidden from him.

As a result, the current situation was that some of the actions of the Patriarch of the Heaven sect had an obscure cause and effect.

This was something that Hong Jun had not felt for many years.

It could even be said that Hong Jun’s emotions were a little chaotic!

“Does the Heaven sect want to break through the current realm?”

What was above a saint?

He had reached the level above the saint realm by merging his body with the Dao.

But this was only his path.

If Tongtian broke through to the saint realm by himself, what kind of divine ability would he have?

This was something he could not be sure of.

After all, such a thing had never happened since the creation of Heaven and Earth.

Even Hong Jun himself did not dare to be sure if he could break through to the saint realm without the help of external forces.

Back then, even he could not see the end and hope, so he ultimately chose to conform to the Heavenly Dao.

“It will be interesting if you can break through. Go for it, my disciple! I hope you can jump out of the chessboard. Otherwise, you will be doomed sooner or later.”

In the end, Hong Jun did not move, nor did he choose to search for the truth.

With everything in his hands, he had some expectations.

Perhaps he would be able to see a disciple walk a different path!

Hong Jun, who was in harmony with the Heavenly Dao, had become a truly indestructible existence.

However, at the same time, he also lost something.

The Seven Phoenixes sect’s disciple recruitment was still ongoing. After a period of assessment, Lu Ping’s Seven Phoenixes sect had recruited a large number of disciples.

The disciple recruitment process was about to come to an end.

At this moment, Lu Ping received another invitation. The Immortal stage cultivators of Fengming Planet sent an invitation to Lu Ping together.

Although they didn’t know what they were going to do, Lu Ping was still willing to go.

The last time this happened was when Lu Ping wanted to publicize the Heavenly Court.

At that time, Lu Ping’s cultivation base was much weaker than these people. However, Lu Ping’s cultivation base had completely crushed these people.

“Sect Master Lu, quickly take your seat!”

In front of a long table, Lu Ping was directly placed in the middle.

This made Lu Ping have the illusion that he had become the boss of a gang or the chairman of the board of directors.

Looking at the seniors in front of him who all had nervous smiles on their faces, Lu Ping didn’t know what they were thinking.

“What’s the matter?”

Lu Ping asked directly.

“We want to ask, where does Sect Master Lu plan to move to?” one of them asked.

“It’s a secret!” Lu Ping would never tell them. In fact, Lu Ping didn’t know where to go either!

Seeing that Lu Ping didn’t want to tell them, no one dared force him, a cultivator who looked like a Taoist priest said with a smile, “Before we came here, Empress Yun Xiao said that Sect Master Lu is the planet official of our Fengming Planet and asked us to listen to your orders. But since we came back, you have been in seclusion. When you came out of seclusion, you said that you were going to move people away. What should we do?”

Lu Ping had a look of realization on his face as he said with a smile, “You guys just need to elect another planet official! Isn’t it good for everyone to take turns to do this thing?”

Everyone was stunned.

Someone immediately smiled bitterly and said, “Sect Master Lu, your Seven Phoenixes sect is the main fighting force of our Fengming Planet now. If you leave and another foreign enemy attacks, what should we Fengming Planet cultivators do?”

Lu Ping looked at him and said seriously, “Work hard and cultivate. I believe that you guys can do it! I can raise my cultivation level in a short period of time, and you guys can definitely do it too! You must not lose your confidence!”

Everyone looked at each other.

If they believed Lu Ping’s words, they would definitely die miserably.

“Sect Master Lu, you are a heaven-gifted genius, but we are not. Please help us.”

These people were very humble now.

Lu Ping muttered, “Why don’t we all move? It might be better to live on a different planet.”

Hearing this, everyone smiled bitterly and said, “Where should we move? There are Western cultivators everywhere now. I heard that the Western Church has sent a large number of new members over the past few days. Many planets around their forces have been cleaned up. Even Empress Yun Xiao has been chased and beaten up!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Huh?” Lu Ping really did not know about this. “How did you know?”

“Everyone is using the Primal Chaos Universe to communicate now. All kinds of news reports are flying around the Primal Chaos Universe Forum!”

Someone revealed the source of the news.

In fact, the Primal Chaos Universe was originally used as a place to exchange information in the universe. It was just that it had not been taken seriously before.

The reason was very simple. Were there not enough things to do on their own planet?

Who would look at other planets when they had nothing to do?

Therefore, although there were some interstellar news, other than those that were particularly important, it was very difficult to attract the attention of others.

However, since the great war between the Heavenly Court and the Western Church began, the situation was different.

Although the Primal Chaos Universe didn’t have much value to cultivators above the Immortal stage, and it would restrict their cultivation, it wouldn’t restrict them from entering.

To all cultivators at the Immortal stage, the movements of the Western Church and the Heavenly Court were very important.

After all, there were quite a few cultivators who joined the Western Church. For example, Hui Ming of Fengming Planet, a cultivator who came from the orthodox of the Western Church, would basically join the Western Church 100% of the time.

In this way, all kinds of news were very precious.

True news and false news flew everywhere.

But in general, most of the information was still true and reliable.

What they heard was right. It was the Western Church’s Cihang, who was afraid of leaving Sun Wukong and the others here. This also caused the Western Church’s influence in the southeast star area to increase greatly.

They began a rapid counterattack.

When Lu Ping heard their words, he frowned. The Western Church had sent reinforcements. Would Yun Xiao and the others be in trouble?

He didn’t have any special feelings for Yun Xiao and the others, but after all, they were acquaintances and had a good relationship. Lu Ping didn’t want to see them die.

However, at this moment, he didn’t have time to think too much. These cultivators started to chatter in his ear.

“Sect Master Lu, you can’t leave. You’re now the pillar of our Fengming Planet.”

“That’s right. If you leave, what should we do? If there are any more foreign enemies, we can only let them slaughter us.”

“Sect Master Lu, it’s better to stay!”

These people’s main purpose today was still to make Lu Ping stay.

Lu Ping shook his head and said, “The matter of the Seven Phoenixes sect moving has long been decided and can not be changed. I still say the same thing. If it doesn’t work, you guys can also move. Move to a planet where there are experts, or find a place to dig a deep hole and isolate yourself for a few hundred years. Perhaps the great calamity will pass.”

This was a real and effective method.

If one really did not want to reap benefits from the great calamity and found a place to hide obediently, then it would be too difficult to find it.

To put it bluntly, even if one was a quasi-saint, it was difficult to find an Immortal stage cultivator that could hide on an entire planet.

“Sect Master Lu, you should stay!”

“That’s right. I beg you, we only have confidence if you stay.”

“Sect Master Lu, please consider the fact that you’re from the same planet, stay and lead us!”

Looking at these people pleading one by one.

Lu Ping sneered in his heart.

How could he not see through these people’s thoughts?

They clearly wanted to keep him as a gun. When the time came, if there were really strong enemies, Lu Ping would take the lead. If he won, then they would beat the dog that fell into the water and collect the Heaven and Earth merit. If they lost, they would scatter and secretly escape for their lives.

Lu Ping rubbed his fingers as he looked at the seemingly sincere old fellows in front of him who might not have any secret thoughts.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Ping smiled and said, “It’s definitely impossible for you to stay. However, if you are willing to join the Seven Phoenixes sect, you can come with us.”
