Chapter 16: Five Elements Incarnation, Make Another Choice
The combination of Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi's escape lights combined their strengths.

Zhen Yuanzi's magic power is deeper, while Hong Yun's escape speed is even faster. When their escape speeds are combined, their speed is even faster.

Although we started a little later, we were not slower than others, and were even faster.

Outside the ancient sky, there is boundless and endless chaos, which is separated by the fetal membrane of heaven and earth.

The two of them arrived in front of the fetal membrane of heaven and earth, and looked at the thick fetal membrane with a slightly strange look in their eyes.

For Hong Yun, he also opened up a world in the Qiankun Pearl. Since it is also a world, the world he opened up naturally also has such a fetal membrane.

However, compared with the fetal membrane of heaven and earth in the prehistoric world, the fetal membrane of his world is much weaker.

As for Zhen Yuanzi, his companion spiritual treasure, the Book of Earth, was transformed from the fetal membrane of the earth, and it has some similarities with the fetal membrane of heaven and earth.

"Let's go!"

Zhen Yuanzi did not stop, but was the first to pass through the fetal membrane of heaven and earth and entered the chaos.

And Hongyun also entered the chaos.

Entering into the chaos, I saw gray chaotic air currents all around, surging and rushing towards me.

However, both of them had innate spiritual treasures to protect them, and the lotus platforms under them blocked the chaotic airflow coming from all directions.

This chaotic void is filled with violent chaotic energy. If one's cultivation is insufficient, once he enters it, he will be corroded and destroyed by the endless chaotic airflow in a moment.

Therefore, to walk in this chaos, one must at least have the cultivation level of a Daluo Jinxian, or have an innate spiritual treasure to protect oneself, to be guaranteed, otherwise one will be courting death.

From this point of view, not everyone can attend Hongjun's sermon. At least in this chaotic void, those cultivators whose cultivation has not reached the level of Daluo Jinxian will be eliminated.

Without sufficient strength, one naturally cannot be considered to have destiny and cannot listen to the Tao. Without sufficient luck and without magical treasures to protect oneself, one cannot pass through this chaotic void and cannot listen to the Tao.

Thinking of this, Hong Yun suddenly seemed to remember something and paused slightly.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Hong Yun said, "But I remembered a small thing."

As he spoke, Hong Yun's body shook slightly, and a red light suddenly emerged from his body. This red light fell beside Hong Yun and transformed into a woman in red palace dress.

"Fellow Daoist Huoyun, then I'll leave this matter to you." Hongyun said to the woman.

This woman was, in fact, an incarnation of Hong Yun. Hong Yun created the world in the Qiankun Pearl and transformed the four symbols into five elements, which became five divine beasts: the Azure Dragon in the east, the Vermillion Bird in the south, the White Tiger in the west, the Black Tortoise in the north and the Qilin in the center.

These five divine beasts are the five incarnations of Hongyun. They correspond to the five elements and have their own names: Taoist Monarch Wood Cloud, Taoist Monarch Fire Cloud, Taoist Monarch Gold Cloud, Taoist Monarch Water Cloud and Taoist Monarch Earth Cloud.

Each of them has his own magical powers, and their cultivation is roughly one-fifth of Hong Yun's original level, which is quite powerful.

As for Hongyun's incarnation, Taoist Huoyun, why was she a woman? This was something Hongyun could not do anything about.

When the world was created, he transformed the four symbols into five elements, which secretly conformed to the principles of yin and yang. Therefore, among the incarnations of the five elements, there were two female bodies, one was the Taoist Lord Huoyun, and the other was the Taoist Lord Jinyun.

Zhen Yuanzi made fun of Hong Yun for a long time because of this, but Hong Yun is used to it now.

After hearing Hongyun's instructions, Taoist Master Huoyun said, "It's just a small matter, don't worry, fellow Taoist." Then he turned into a beam of fire and left Hongyun without any magic treasure to protect himself.

However, it did not move forward into the depths of chaos, but instead flew back in the direction it came from.

Zhen Yuanzi shook his head, not knowing what Hong Yun was trying to say, and the two continued on their way.

After that, there were no more surprises.

The two finally found a palace in the depths of chaos. That palace was named: Zixiao Palace.

The Zixiao Palace stood in the chaos, looking desolate, ancient and distant. The violent chaotic air currents around it swept to its side and then quieted down.

The closer you get to Zixiao Palace, the more you can feel a mysterious feeling. Faintly, you seem to hear a faint Taoist sound echoing, which is extremely mysterious.

Before I looked at the palace again, I saw many figures sitting cross-legged in an open space, many of whom I knew.

For example, the Three Pure Ones, the brother and sister Fuxi and Nuwa, the Taoist of the Styx, the brothers Di Jun and Taiyi, the Taoist of Lei Ze, and so on.

The arrival of Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun also caused a commotion among the crowd. The two walked over and greeted everyone they knew, then found an empty seat, sat down, and waited silently for the Zixiao Palace to open.

Just like that, as time passed, more and more powerful people gathered outside the Zixiao Palace.

At this moment, suddenly, the system prompt sounded again in Hongyun's mind.

"Ding, it is detected that the Purple Sky Palace is about to open. There are six holy cushions. The host can make the following choices."

"Choice 1: Use your own speed to rush into Zixiao Palace, grab the holy cushion and sit down. You will be rewarded with the perfect version of the method of beheading the three corpses."

"Choice 2: Give up sitting on the Saint's Throne Cushion, and you will be rewarded with the innate treasure, the Hunyuan Sword."

Hmm? What does that mean? The perfect version of the method to kill the three corpses? Does this mean that the method that Hongjun taught to kill the three corpses is indeed problematic?
Hong Yun's heart moved, and he asked the system, but the reply he got did not say that there was anything wrong with Hongjun's method of beheading the three corpses.

But this method of beheading the three corpses is not easy to perform. If the method of beheading the three corpses has been systematically improved, it will allow Hongyun to prove his truth better.

So, how should I choose? Hong Yun's face showed a dilemma. One is the way to prove the truth, and the other is the innate treasure.

Hongyun still lacks the method to prove his truth, even though he has already decided to prove his truth through force and in the world.

But that was before the system said it would give him a way to attain enlightenment.

You can only choose a path based on your own knowledge.

But now that the system has provided a method of proving the truth, Hong Yun feels that he cannot miss it.

Although the innate treasure is good, it is ultimately an external object and does not have strong inherent strength. What is the difference between it and Taiyi holding the Chaos Bell until his death?
Therefore, even though Hong Yun knew that once he sat in that position, there would be huge consequences.

But now the method of attaining enlightenment is right before our eyes, and we have to fight for it no matter what.

"System, I choose one." Hongyun made a choice.

After making the choice, Hongyun looked at Zhen Yuanzi next to him. Since he had decided to sit on the cushion, should he take Zhen Yuanzi with him?
After thinking about it, Hong Yun decided not to bring Zhen Yuanzi with him. The consequences of this holy throne cushion were too great, and he was afraid that Zhen Yuanzi could not handle it.
