In the Primordial World, within the Yuqing Palace atop Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi looked at Tongtian, who was staring at him without blinking, and spoke with a hint of helplessness:
"Third Brother, you don't have to be like this!"
Tongtian shook his head and said firmly, "No, Eldest Brother said this matter is of great importance and instructed me to watch you closely to prevent any accidents!"
Yuanshi shook his head with resignation, "But you don't have to stare at me without blinking. It makes me very uncomfortable. I won't suddenly disappear. You don't need to be like this!"
Tongtian stubbornly shook his head, "No, Second Brother, this is what Eldest Brother instructed. Just bear with it for a while. If something happens to you, how can I explain it to Eldest Brother!"
As soon as Tongtian finished speaking, a huge bang echoed, followed by the ground shaking violently!
Tongtian's brows furrowed, and just as he was about to use his divine sense to investigate, another deafening roar came, followed by continuous explosions. The entire Kunlun Mountain trembled, and it only stabilized after a long while!
Tongtian's divine sense enveloped the entire Primordial World, and his brows suddenly tightened, remaining so for a long time!
Seeing this, Yuanshi immediately asked, "Third Brother, what's wrong?"
Tongtian relaxed his tightly furrowed brows and said, "Second Brother, many things have appeared around the Primordial World, but my divine sense cannot penetrate the boundary of the Primordial World. It feels like something is blocking me. I also sensed the aura of the Great Dao!"
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi frowned and looked at Tongtian's curious expression, "Third Brother, why don't you go and take a look? Your eyes are about to bore through it!"
Tongtian immediately shook his head, "No, we'll wait for Eldest Brother to return!"
In the chaos, Taishang, Zhen Yuanzi, Hong Yun, Tai Hao, Nuwa, and Houtu, after rushing all the way, finally arrived at the Primordial World. What greeted their eyes shocked them immensely!
The entire Primordial World had changed dramatically. What was originally a small world had expanded considerably, much like a bird's egg transforming into a sky-blue basketball, still rotating slowly!
Tai Hao stared at the scene before him, exclaiming in disbelief, "Did we come to the wrong place? Is this the Primordial World?"
Seeing that the Primordial World before him was not the Primordial World he knew, Taishang's heart was also stirred by tempestuous waves, his eyes filled with disbelief!
Taishang truly relaxed only after seeing that Tongtian and Yuanshi were safe and sound!
"Second Brother, Third Brother, the Primordial World has greatly changed. I'm glad you are alright!"
Tongtian also replied, "Eldest Brother, many things have appeared around the Primordial World, but my divine sense cannot penetrate the original boundary of the Primordial World. I don't know what they are?"
Zhen Yuanzi interjected, "Sect Master Tongtian, they are continents. When we arrived, we saw many continents surrounding the Primordial World. Simultaneously, the Primordial World transformed from a world into a single continent!"
Upon hearing this, Tongtian's eyes gleamed, "Eldest Brother, since they are continents, there should be people. Why don't we go and take a look!"
The Saints' eyes also flashed, and they all looked towards Taishang!
Just as Taishang was about to nod in agreement, a profound Dao resonance echoed through heaven and earth. Taishang's face lit up with joy, and he immediately declared:
"The sound of the Great Dao! This is the Great Dao preaching. Everyone, do not miss this rare opportunity. Calm yourselves and listen to the Dao sound!"
There was no need for Taishang to remind them. The moment the Dao sound began, all of them had already sat cross-legged on the ground!
Only Yuanshi stood there, looking bewildered. Taishang saw this and urgently said, "Second Brother, hurry! This opportunity is rare and cannot be wasted!"
Yuanshi looked at Taishang with a bewildered expression, "Eldest Brother, what Dao sound are you talking about? I can't hear anything!"
Seeing that all the Saints had entered a state of contemplation, yet Yuanshi claimed to hear nothing, Taishang wondered if the Dao sound was only audible to Saints.
As Taishang lamented the loss of a once-in-an-eternity opportunity for Yuanshi, he suddenly remembered that they had brothers who could share their primordial spirits!
A brilliant light flashed in Taishang's eyes, and he said impatiently, "Second Brother, hurry, hurry, share your primordial spirit with me!"
Yuanshi, not understanding, still followed Taishang's instruction and detached his soul!
Seeing this, Taishang quickly released his primordial spirit and merged it with Yuanshi's!
The moment Yuanshi and Taishang's primordial spirits merged, the sound of the Great Dao echoed in Yuanshi's mind. Only then did Yuanshi realize that he had almost lost a great opportunity!
Yuanshi looked at Taishang excitedly, "Eldest Brother!"
Seeing Yuanshi's excited expression, Taishang immediately said, "No more idle talk. Quickly calm your mind and listen to the Dao sound. Perhaps it can help you reach sainthood in one go!"
After speaking, Taishang didn't wait for Yuanshi's reaction and immediately became immersed in the Dao sound!
Yuanshi dared not delay and immediately calmed his mind to listen to the Dao sound. He originally had no chance to hear this Great Dao preaching, as it was exclusively for Saints.
However, due to Taishang, Yuanshi, who was not a Saint, was enjoying the treatment of a Saint. Coincidentally, he had fallen from a Saint position, so he would not suffer any backlash from the Dao sound being for Saints.
It could be said that Yuanshi would be the biggest winner in this Great Dao preaching. Others might only save years of arduous cultivation, but Yuanshi could use this to return to the path of sainthood!
While all the Saints in heaven and earth were listening to the Dao sound, Hongjun, Luohu, Jieyin, and Zhun Ti were still unconscious due to the Great Dao's intervention, completely missing this opportunity!
