"Eldest Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Some abnormalities in Laozi caught the attention of Yuanshi and Tongtian by his side, prompting them to temporarily withdraw their minds and gazes from the sudden changes in the battlefield, looking at Laozi with puzzlement.

"Oh, n—nothing, just a bit surprised by the current situation."

Under the puzzled gazes of Yuanshi and Tongtian, Laozi quickly returned to normal. After glancing at Yuanshi and Tongtian, he responded with his usual detached and inaction-oriented calmness.

Yuanshi and Tongtian did not suspect otherwise and merely nodded slightly, looking back at the battlefield. Among them, Tongtian exclaimed in admiration, "This Hongyun indeed has some tricks up his sleeve. I truly didn't expect him to possess such a powerful Divine Ability; he is truly a formidable figure!"

Yuanshi frowned and said proudly, "Although this Hongyun is powerful, we, Pangu's Three Pure Ones, are not inferior to him. If we were to actually fight, Pangu's Three Pure Ones would still be superior in the end. What does mere Hongyun amount to?"

Laozi said nothing, remaining detached and unfazed, though an imperceptible, strange light occasionally flashed in his eyes, indicating that his inner mind was not calm.

At this moment, Tongtian spoke up again, "Eldest Brother, Second Brother, the method of Avatars is not a particularly rare Divine Ability or Mystical Arts in the Great Wilderness. Various incarnation and Avatar methods are as numerous as the hairs on an ox here. Furthermore, those who have reached the Daluo Golden Immortal, even if not Proficient in this path, basically possess one or two powerful incarnation or Incarnation-type Divine Abilities."

"Among them, the most renowned is none other than the Great Divine Ability of the four hundred and eighty million Blood God Clone by Minghe of the Blood Sea. Coordinating with the Blood Sea, it is truly said that as long as the Blood Sea does not dry up, Minghe will not die. He can even deploy the Blood Sea Grand Formation, which is extremely formidable."

"Yet this can at best be considered winning by quantity. However, a Great Divine Ability like Hongyun's, which instantly creates three entities whose Realm, strength, and all other aspects feel completely identical to his own, and which seem to exist completely independently—I really have never seen it before."

"Mm, I haven't seen this kind of Divine Ability either, but what can be certain is that this kind of Divine Ability must take a powerful Innate Origin that is completely compatible or complementary with one's own Origin as a guide to be cultivated out; otherwise, it would be utterly impossible to cultivate it."

Yuanshi nodded, agreeing with Tongtian's statement, and vaguely perceived some of the profound mysteries behind it.

Laozi still said nothing, but after hearing Yuanshi's words, his expression felt unnatural for a fleeting moment.

At this very moment, besides Pangu's Three Pure Ones, various Great Divine Beings were also chattering in discussion, shocked, surprised, and wary of the Divine Ability methods displayed by Hongyun.

The reason for this was naturally related to those three streaks of golden light shot from between Hongyun's brows and flying toward Jieyin and Zhunti.

Those three streaks of golden light swiftly reached the vicinity of Jieyin and Zhunti, who were preparing to continue fleeing, transforming into three figures standing separately in three directions to surround Jieyin and Zhunti. Where else did these two have a path to escape?

And this was naturally the Three Lives Body transformed from Hongyun's Innate Divine Ability.

Hongyun was not like Taiqing Laozi, who had found it difficult to use the Divine Ability One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones for various reasons, and could only gradually use it after masking his Origins and background by Severing the Three Corpses. Naturally, Hongyun would not intentionally keep hiding these Three Lives Body until they gathered dust.

Now that Jieyin and Zhunti were single-mindedly thinking of escaping, Hongyun naturally had to deploy this Divine Ability to directly block off their path.

Today, unless Hongjun truly stepped forward to protect them, Hongyun would definitely kill Zhunti, and Jieyin could be beaten to within an inch of his life first.

Thus, the Three Lives Body looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle and chanted in unison, "Past, present, future body, former life, current life, next life frame. Space-time, Karma, and destiny manifest, Three Lives Body is my name."

"Two Fellow Daoists, there is no need to think about escaping now. You might as well fight here, have a go at it, and resolve our many entangling Karma!"

As the voice fell, the Three Lives Body struck out in unison, unleashing various Divine Abilities and spells to bombard Jieyin and Zhunti, whose faces were incomparably pale and filled with despair.

"Hongyun! The two of us martial brothers were merely impetuous in the Purple Heaven Palace because of the barrenness of the West. Yet you harbor no heart of pity for the suffering of all living beings in the West, and your strikes are so ruthless, attempting to take the lives of us two martial brothers. This truly tarnishes the reputation of the East as a place of outstanding people and abundant resources, where virtuous and noble scholars emerge in droves. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by fellow Cultivators?"

Jieyin and Zhunti resisted desperately, roaring and crying out with grief. Whether it was to gain sympathy or because they truly felt that holding high the banner of the West's barrenness allowed them to act unscrupulously and deservedly, exempting them from Hongyun's disaster of oppression and destruction.

At this, the various Great Divine Beings wore mocking expressions, watching coldly as bystanders in complete silence. Hongyun did not respond, and the Three Lives Body said nothing either, only intensifying their attacks.

Moreover, aside from lacking treasures, the Three Lives Body were basically three complete and independent Hongyuns, showing no difference in any aspect or strength from Hongyun's main body. This was the greatest distinction that set the Three Lives Body apart from all other incarnation and Avatar-type Divine Abilities.

Therefore, as the Three Lives Body continuously attacked, Jieyin and Zhunti, who were already injured, had not the slightest chance to counterattack or break through. They could only resist desperately, yet within an extremely short time, they were covered in wounds, their bodies dense with terrifying cracks, blood flowing freely until they completely turned into bloody figures.

Zhunti even resolutely detonated his Sarira Golden Body within this extremely short time, wanting to do as Jieyin had done before, seeking a sliver of survival through this to quickly disappear into the boundless Chaotic Void.

However, the Three Lives Body—which, just like Hongyun, was only one step away from breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Perfection realm—having experienced it once before, were completely on guard and naturally able to suppress the self-detonation power of the Sarira Golden Body.

"Zhunti! Go to hell!" At this moment, Hongyun, who had completely extricated himself from the energy torrent formed by the self-detonation of Jieyin's Sarira Golden Body, let out a cold shout. He fiercely struck out with the Hongmeng Heaven-Measuring Ruler, generating boundless might as it forcefully plunged into the Chaotic Void, ignoring spatial distances to strike straight at Zhunti's head.

"Bang... Ah..."

"No! Junior Brother..."

Accompanied by the Hongmeng Heaven-Measuring Ruler landing solidly on the head of Zhunti, who was resisting desperately yet unable to turn the tide, a miserable cry immediately rang out as his head instantly burst apart.

This caused Jieyin, who was forcibly blocked by the Three Lives Body and unable to rescue Zhunti, to inevitably cry out in agonizing grief with tears streaming down his face.

"Stop howling like ghosts and wolves here. Your shameless Junior Brother is completely fine; his head was merely blown apart simply speaking. For a Daluo Golden Immortal, this doesn't even count as an injury and can be recovered at any time."

Hongyun's ambiguously toned voice suddenly resounded through the Chaotic Void, leaving everyone in shock and uncertainty, while he flashed over to stand together with the Three Lives Body. However, he did not continue attacking, merely standing in the Chaotic Void with a shifting expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

Almost at the same time, the head of Zhunti, whose head had been blown apart, instantly restored itself, looking around in slight bewilderment.

"Junior Brother!" Jieyin could care about nothing else as he hurried to Zhunti's side with a face full of pleasant surprise, looking him up and down with overflowing joy. The expression of sorrow and bitterness vanished completely at this moment.
