One hundred years passed on Kunlun Mountain.
Nuwa and the Sanqing, the four of them faced each other, their expressions varied.
That Hongmeng Purple Energy remained as before, suspended within each of their Primordial Spirits, unmoving, profound and difficult to comprehend.
Nuwa spoke first, her voice carrying an inexpressible weariness: "It's been a hundred years. Can this Hongmeng Purple Energy truly be comprehended?"
Grand Pure One opened his eyes, and the ripples appeared in his ancient, unmoving eyes.
He shook his head and said, "No clue at all."
Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly, his aura somewhat unstable: "How could something bestowed by Teacher be false! It's just that our Opportunity is shallow, and we haven't been able to glimpse even a tiny fraction of it!"
Although he said that, the irritation in his tone was undisguised.
Tongtian also looked depressed, scratching his hair.
"What exactly is this thing?"
"It's just there, you can feel its extraordinary nature, but you just can't touch it, can't reach it! It's infuriating!"
Grand Pure One slowly exhaled a turbid Qi, his brows deeply furrowed.
"The Dao we cultivate seems to have no direct connection with this Hongmeng Purple Energy."
"It's more like a key, but we don't know which door it's meant to open."
Nuwa looked at the appearance of her three Senior Brothers, and her suspicion grew stronger.
"Could it be… that this Hongmeng Purple Energy truly cannot be comprehended by ourselves?"
She bit her lower lip, a thought had been lingering in her mind for a long time, and finally, she spoke it out.
"Three Senior Brothers, Junior Sister has an idea, I don't know if I should speak it or not."
Grand Pure One said: "Junior Sister, speak directly."
Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian also looked at her.
"Besides us four, there are also Fellow Daoists Jieyin and Zhunti from the West under Teacher's tutelage, who also obtained Hongmeng Purple Energy, and are also Teacher's Named Disciples."
Nuwa paused, observing the Sanqing's reactions.
"Little Sister is thinking, since the four of us combined have failed, why not…"
"Invite those two to come and comprehend together?"
"Perhaps, this Hongmeng Purple Energy requires the combined strength of all six of us to find that glimmer of hope!"
As her voice fell, Grand Pure One's brow furrowed almost imperceptibly, and he did not speak immediately.
Yuanshi Tianzun's face, however, immediately darkened, his eyes filled with undisguised disdain.
"Junior Sister! Stop talking nonsense!" His voice suddenly rose, carrying anger.
"Hmph! Those two from the West only managed to obtain Teacher's pity and were bestowed Saint positions by crying and making a scene in Purple Cloud Palace, acting pitiful and shameless!"
"Such behavior, how is it different from a rogue? It simply shames us guests of Purple Cloud Palace!"
"You want me to comprehend the Grand Dao together with such shameless people? It's a great humiliation! This poor Daoist disdains to associate with them!"
The more Yuanshi Tianzun spoke, the more agitated he became, his chest heaving, clearly having strong opinions about those two.
Tongtian also frowned tightly, pouting: "Those two fellows, indeed… are not very presentable. Crying and wailing, what kind of decorum is that?"
Although he didn't react as intensely as Yuanshi Tianzun, he was clearly not very willing either.
Nuwa sighed in her heart upon seeing this.
How could she not know that these three Senior Brothers, especially Senior Brother Yuanshi Tianzun, always looked down on the two from the West.
She sighed, and then dropped a bombshell.
"Three Senior Brothers, do you know the recent situation of the Yao Race?"
Grand Pure One looked at her: "The Yao Race? Dijun and Taiyi united the Yao Race, and their Luck is flourishing. We naturally know about this."
"Not only that." Nuwa's expression was solemn, "According to what I know, Dijun and my Elder Brother are currently working together to deduce a peerless great formation, named the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Formation."
"This formation, once deployed, draws upon the power of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou, possessing infinite power, enough to destroy heaven and earth."
"Three Senior Brothers, think about it, the Yao Race is already powerful, if they gain such a powerful killing formation, to what extent will their strength expand?"
"The Grandmist is probably going to be in complete chaos!"
"By then, if we have not yet achieved Enlightenment to become a Saint, under this monstrous calamity, even self-preservation will likely become a luxury!"
Nuwa's words were like a sudden clap of thunder, causing the Sanqing's expressions to change drastically.
Grand Pure One's eyes, which had been slightly closed, suddenly opened, a flash of brilliance fleetingly appearing within them.
"Junior Sister Nuwa, is this true?"
His voice was no longer calm, taking on a hint of urgency.
The disdain on Yuanshi Tianzun's face completely vanished, replaced by deep apprehension and shock.
Although he was arrogant, he also knew the terror of the power of the Zhou Tian Stars.
Nuwa nodded solemnly: "Absolutely true. My Elder Brother once sent a message, mentioning this matter, and the progress is quite smooth."
"Otherwise, Little Sister would not be so anxious to disturb the three Senior Brothers to discuss the comprehension of the Hongmeng Purple Energy."
Grand Pure One was silent for a long time, then finally spoke: "Junior Sister's concerns are not without reason."
He looked at Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian: "The big picture is important."
Just four words, but they clearly indicated his stance.
Yuanshi Tianzun's chest rose and fell once, and he finally let out a heavy snort from his nose.
"Fine! For the sake of the Grand Dao, I'll hold my nose and accept it!"
"However, I'll say this upfront, if those two dare to play any more tricks, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Tongtian also sighed: "Alright, alright, having more helpers is always good. Although those two helpers aren't exactly well-liked."
Nuwa felt a little relieved seeing the Sanqing relent.
"In that case, without further ado, let us depart for Mount Sumeru in the West."
Grand Pure One nodded: "Good."
The four figures did not delay, directly leaving Kunlun Mountain and flying towards the West.
Mount Sumeru.
Unlike the immortal mountains and blessed lands of the East, this place still carried a hint of dilapidation and desolation, but the Spiritual Qi, compared to before, was much denser, clearly Jieyin and Zhunti had put in a lot of effort over the years.
Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti were sitting opposite each other, looking distressed.
"Senior Brother, what exactly is this Hongmeng Purple Energy?" Zhunti sighed, "Teacher gave it to us, surely not just for us to stare at it, right?"
Daoist Jieyin's face was even more bitter: "Junior Brother, don't be impatient. This is the foundation for becoming a Saint, profound and unfathomable. It's only natural that we, with our dull Aptitude, cannot comprehend it."
Although he said that, the anxiety in his heart was no less than Zhunti's.
Their West was barren, and they had finally obtained such a great Opportunity. If they couldn't grasp it, they would truly have nowhere to cry.
Just then, the two figures simultaneously opened their eyes and looked outside the mountain.
"We have guests, and… they don't seem to be friendly." Zhunti muttered.
Soon, four figures appeared outside the Mount Sumeru Daoist temple.
It was precisely the Sanqing and Nuwa.
Jieyin and Zhunti hurriedly rose to greet them.
"Oh my, rare guests, rare guests! We were unaware of the esteemed presence of the three Fellow Daoists and Fellow Daoist Nuwa, and failed to welcome you from afar. Please forgive us, please forgive us!" Zhunti spoke first, brimming with enthusiasm.
Daoist Jieyin also bowed: "Greetings, Fellow Daoists."
Grand Pure One nodded slightly: "We have disturbed the two Fellow Daoists."
Yuanshi Tianzun merely nodded coldly, not even bothering to say another word.
Tongtian, however, cupped his hands: "Fellow Daoist Jieyin, Fellow Daoist Zhunti."
Nuwa stepped forward and concisely explained the whole story, including how the four of them had jointly comprehended for a hundred years without success, and their speculation that the Hongmeng Purple Energy might require all six of them to gather to be comprehended.
Of course, she did not mention the matter of the Yao Race's Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Formation; that was for reining in the Sanqing, and there was no need for these two from the West to know too much.
Jieyin and Zhunti's eyes immediately lit up after hearing her.
They themselves had no clue whatsoever when trying to comprehend it, and they were extremely worried.
Now, Nuwa and the three great figures of the Sanqing had actually come to them, proposing to comprehend it together – this was simply a windfall from heaven!
Zhunti rubbed his hands excitedly: "Senior Sister Nuwa, is this true? You… you are really willing to let us two brothers join you in comprehending the Hongmeng Purple Energy?"
He seemed afraid that the other party would go back on their word.
Jieyin also looked at Nuwa and the Sanqing with anticipation, the worry on his face fading a little.
"If we can comprehend it together with the four Fellow Daoists, it would be an honor for us two brothers. We naturally accept with joy, and could not ask for more!"
Nuwa nodded: "That's excellent."
Although Yuanshi Tianzun still kept a straight face, he did not voice any further objections.
Tongtian, meanwhile, was rubbing his fists: "Good! Six people! I want to see if we can figure out this Hongmeng Purple Energy this time!"
Grand Pure One spoke: "Since that is the case, there's no time to lose."
"We shall comprehend the Hongmeng Purple Energy together right here."
"Let's see if the combined strength of six people can achieve a Breakthrough."
