Chapter 44
Kong Xuan Subdued

Having played a game, Tongtian still felt a little unsatisfied, wishing he could pull Shi Hao back for another game.

The chessboard contained the rules of the Dao of Formations, giving Tongtian many insights.

Although he didn't know what level of treasure it was, Tongtian understood its importance to him.

Saints don't lack treasures, and Tongtian certainly didn't lack them either. He obtained many innate spiritual treasures from the Treasure Cliff and distributed them to his disciples, but what he lacked was a supreme treasure to suppress his destiny.

The chessboard in Shi Hao's hands could not only help him comprehend the rules of the Dao of Formations, but it was also likely to be used as a supreme treasure to suppress destiny!

"That Shi Hao, although I can't see his origins, he is definitely not simple. No wonder he gained Shi Ji's trust."

Not to mention the restriction that could suppress saints, simply in terms of the Dao of Formations, Tongtian believed that no one in the Primordial World could compare to him.

Perhaps the ancient Yao Ting's level in the Dao of Formations was also good, able to set up the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation. But after Tongtian broke through to the Saint realm, his understanding of the Dao of Formations was no longer comparable to theirs.

But he didn't expect Shi Hao to be able to easily beat him. During the game, he used chess pieces to set up Saint-level grand formations, and the Twelve Heavenly God Killing Grand Formation and the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation could easily be resolved.

………….

Leaving Shi Hao's house, Tongtian's divine sense swept through, intending to focus a portion of his mind on Zhao Gongming from now on.

But after scanning the entire Primordial World, Tongtian couldn't find Zhao Gongming.

"He wouldn't really have perished, would he?" Thinking about his bet with Shi Hao, Tongtian felt a sense of foreboding.

After understanding Shi Hao's prowess, he suspected that Zhao Gongming might be in trouble, because the other party even gave a riddle – the Seven Arrows of the Nail Head, implying it wasn't a random statement, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

He originally planned to intervene, using the means of a Saint to resolve Zhao Gongming's death tribulation, but was it too late?

Tongtian's divine sense swept through the Primordial World like a storm, and after searching several times, he finally found where Zhao Gongming was. Seeing that he hadn't perished, Tongtian breathed a sigh of relief!

But what Tongtian didn't expect was that he was imprisoned in a special space.

After deducing for a while, Tongtian quickly understood the cause and effect. The interference of the aura of the Conferred God Tribulation made it difficult to deduce the future, but it was simple for a Saint to understand past events, unaffected by this.

"So that's how it is!"

It turned out that his incompetent disciple, not being satisfied with Shi Hao placing Kong Xuan first, had gone to challenge Kong Xuan, wanting to prove his own strength.

Thankfully, everything was fine. He was currently in the Three Mountain Pass, imprisoned in a special space by Kong Xuan, and the situation wasn't serious.

"He went there on his own accord, and he actually couldn't win. Not being able to win is one thing, but he was actually captured alive."

If this gets out, it'll be a disgrace to Tongtian's face.

"Humph, let that useless disciple be detained for a couple of days, let him suffer a bit. Otherwise, if he keeps this up, the upcoming death tribulation will surely be impossible for him to survive."

Tongtian was a little unhappy and naturally didn't want to let Zhao Gongming off so easily. It was good to give him some lessons.

So, after waiting for two days, Tongtian's divine sense swept through, and in an instant, he had gone from the Biyou Palace in the East Sea to the outside of the Three Mountain Pass, much faster than any known technique!

A Saint's teleportation technique could reach any part of the Primordial World as far as their divine sense could reach, allowing them to cross it in a single step.

"Kong Xuan, come out to this venerable one."

Standing in the sky, Tongtian only said this lightly. At the same time, Kong Xuan inside the Three Mountain Pass couldn't help but change his expression.

He instantly appeared in front of Tongtian, his arrogant demeanor fading. He replied, "Kong Xuan is here. I wonder if Saint has summoned me because of my disciple Zhao Gongming."

"Not just that. This venerable one is here to see you today, intending to offer you a blessing," Tongtian said calmly.

"Blessing?"

"That's right. This venerable one wants to take you as this venerable one's direct disciple. What do you think?"

Tongtian also greatly admired Kong Xuan's Five-Colored Divine Light divine ability.

Five-Colored Divine Light, it can brush away anything. It made Tongtian couldn't help but have the urge to make it his own. Furthermore, Tongtian could see through all of Kong Xuan's secrets at a glance.

After the Dragon-Han First Tribulation, Yuan Feng was seriously injured and wanted to return to the Immortal Fire Mountain to heal, but unfortunately, halfway there, she encountered the Five Elements spiritual energy entering her body. During the intermingling of their essence, Yuan Feng gave birth to a peacock egg.

After the peacock egg separated from her body, Yuan Feng's essence suffered severe damage, and she was unable to reborn again in the flames. After the peacock egg hatched, the peacock was born, and the Five Elements brilliance illuminated the surrounding hundred miles, giving birth to the first peacock in the heavens.

Compared to his seven attendant fairies, all of whom were primordial creatures, Kong Xuan in front of him was far stronger than them in both strength and appearance, not even comparable to him.

That Five-Colored Divine Light divine ability, not to mention Zhao Gongming, Tongtian felt that even a Quasi-Saint would suffer a loss.

"Please forgive me, Saint Tongtian. Kong Xuan is used to being lazy, and I have no desire to become a disciple."

But in the face of a Saint's recruitment, Kong Xuan actually refused.

As the first peacock in the heavens, his personality was arrogant and obviously not easy to fool.

Although Tongtian was a Saint of the Primordial World, Kong Xuan had no intention of submitting.

"Since that's the case, let this venerable one see your Five-Colored Divine Light."

"Humph."

Kong Xuan understood that this matter couldn't be settled peacefully. He didn't know how powerful a Saint was, so he immediately launched a deadly attack.

Five-colored light brushed out, illuminating the sky, covering a range of a hundred miles!

Within the Five Elements, nothing is impervious to its brush. Kong Xuan relied on this to be invincible and unconquerable.

"Interesting."

With a turn of his divine sense, Tongtian immediately understood the mystery of Kong Xuan's divine ability. Even the Saint Tongtian, his figure was uncontrollably brushed into the Five-Colored Divine Light.

He saw his imprisoned disciple Zhao Gongming, along with the other party's two treasures, the Binding Dragon Rope and the Stabilizing Sea Pearl.

"Break!"

Using his supreme power, Tongtian gently waved his sleeve, and with ease, he broke the special space of the Five-Colored Divine Light.

"Boom!"

Kong Xuan, who had initially thought that Saints were no big deal, instantly changed his expression. He forcibly used his supreme power to break his own Five-Colored Divine Light.

"This is the power of a Saint?"

Those below the Saint are all ants. Without becoming a Saint, one cannot understand how terrifying a Saint's strength is.

Kong Xuan was shocked and horrified. Before he could think more, he realized that his power had been suddenly imprisoned.

In an instant, he was forced to transform from human form into a beautiful peacock, hundreds of meters long, with colorful feathers.

"Five-Colored Divine Light may not have much effect on Saints, but for those below the Saint, it can almost brush away anything. It's indeed good to have it as a disciple or a guardian beast."

Looking at the majestic Kong Xuan, Tongtian was even more satisfied.

It doesn't matter if Kong Xuan is unwilling now, he has plenty of ways to subdue him.

Tongtian gently flicked his sleeve, and both Kong Xuan and his disciple were taken into the sleeve world space.
