As that gigantic face appeared in the sky, the whole world seemed to fall into an indescribable tremor. The Spiritual Energy between Heaven and Earth began to fluctuate violently, mountains and rivers were destabilized, and countless beings felt an unprecedented fear and repression. They were anxious all day long, kneeling on the ground and knocking their heads on the floor, muttering words, begging for forgiveness from Heaven and Earth.

Under this overwhelming pressure strong enough to destroy everything, even the cultivators with profound cultivation felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness. Only Yu Yuan, his figure still as upright as a pine, stood atop the walls of Chaoge City, his eyes devoid of any fear, but instead more resolute, as if he were the only steady divine needle in this tumultuous world.

The Saints also felt the shocking arrival of the Taoist Ancestor; Tongtian Sect Hierarch and Nuwa's expressions became extremely grave. They knew that this being, who surpassed the Saints, once angered, could return the entire Primordial World to chaos. Yuanshi Tianzun, Taiching Saint, and others like Zhunti also looked cautious, their eyes intensely fixed on that gigantic face, trying to discern the intentions of the Taoist Ancestor.

The face of Hong Jun Taoist Ancestor became clearer amongst the dark clouds, his eyes like two profound stars, filled with endless wisdom and dignity. His gaze swept across all the Saints present, finally resting on Yu Yuan, his voice as solemn as the most majestic bell between heaven and earth, reverberating through Yunxiao: "You Saints, why have you forsaken my commands and not slain this man?"

As his words fell, the whole world plunged into a strange silence, all sounds seemingly devoured by his statement. A complex emotion arose in the hearts of all the Saints; they knew that at this moment, all their actions were under the scrutiny of the Taoist Ancestor.

The atmosphere between Heaven and Earth suddenly became more oppressive, a power capable of destroying everything began to gather around the face of the Taoist Ancestor, as if about to unleash an unparalleled attack at any moment.

Yuanshi Tianzun and the Taiching Saint gave no answer, remaining silent under the Taoist Ancestor's interrogation. A hint of complexity flashed through their eyes, clearly holding their own opinions, but they were reluctant to express them lightly.

Tongtian Sect Hierarch appeared especially towering within the Slaying Immortal Sword Formation. His long hair fluttered in the wind, his eyes sharp as a hawk, radiating an undeniable sharpness. His face was resolute, like a mountain weathered by countless storms, firm and unshakable. His lips slightly lifted, revealing a hard-to-detect cold smile, as he looked up at the gigantic face above the Heavenly Vault.

"Taoist Ancestor?" Tongtian Sect Hierarch's voice echoed through Yunxiao, filled with disdain and provocation, "Who are you really, daring to impersonate the Taoist Ancestor and disrupt the Primordial?"

The face of Hong Jun Taoist Ancestor slightly moved within the dark clouds, his gaze was as calm as water but seemed to contain endless depth, as if he could see through everything.

"You Saints, do you not recognize me? Or does Tongtian wish to deceive his master, betraying Heaven?" The voice of the Taoist Ancestor did not fluctuate, but each word carried an invisible pressure, compelling belief.

Yuanshi Tianzun and other Saints remained silent, their expressions complex, seemingly weighing something, but no one dared to directly respond to the Taoist Ancestor. Their eyes shifted back and forth between Tongtian Sect Hierarch and the Taoist Ancestor, undoubtedly their minds were in turmoil.

Nuwa's face still carried a gentle smile, but a sharp light flashed in her eyes, her voice crisp yet firm: "Taoist Ancestor, since you have come here personally, may I ask, during the Witch Demon Calamity, who exactly was scheming behind the Witch and Demon clans, causing them to slaughter humans and refine treasures?"

This question, like a bolt from the blue, shocked everyone present. Nuwa's inquiry directly pointed to a secret chapter in the history of Primordial, a taboo that all Saints dared not touch lightly.

The face of the Taoist Ancestor in the sky seemed to slightly frown, but soon regained its calm. "Nuwa, your question is irrelevant to today's matters."

"Oh?" Tongtian Sect Hierarch's lips curled up in cold ridicule, his gaze as chilly as a wintry Cold Pool, emanating a ruthless sharpness. His posture was as erect as pine, his robe fluttering, like a supreme ruler looking down on all beings.

"What then have you come here for today?" Tongtian Sect Hierarch's voice was filled with mockery, "Could it be that you also wish to intervene in the dispute between two teachings?"

His words were sharp, each one like a sharp sword blade, directly targeting the opponent's heart. Tongtian Sect Hierarch clearly did not believe that the figure before him was the true Taoist Ancestor, his attitude firm and provocative, seemingly challenging the supreme authority between Heaven and Earth.

The face of Hong Jun Taoist Ancestor within the clouds remained as calm as water, but his voice was as solemn as the most majestic bell between heaven and earth, each syllable carried an irresistible majesty.

"I have descended today not for the dispute between teachings, but to exterminate the evil demons." The voice of the Taoist Ancestor had no emotional fluctuation, yet it conveyed an irrepressible force.

His gaze turned towards Yu Yuan, a sharp light flashing in his eyes, "Yu Yuan, you are an Outer Domain demon, colluding with the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Demon Sect, traveling through time and space, disturbing the past and future. Today, I shall descend personally, to uphold the Heavenly Dao!"

Before the words were finished, the clouds in the sky churned, a gigantic image manifested in the air. Within the image, Yu Yuan stood shoulder to shoulder with a man in a black robe with a sinister face, beside a massive Time Erosion Demon, seemingly plotting something.
