The Ultimate Dao-Demon Showdown! Hongjun Crushes Luohu!

On the Western Continent, atop Demon Mountain.

Luohu slumped amidst the rubble, demonic blood still trickling from the corner of his mouth.

His eyes were fixed on the direction of Kunlun Mountain, where three soaring streams of pure energy continued to ascend, each wisp causing his heart to tremble.

"Primordial Golden Immortal..."

Luohu spat out these four words through gritted teeth, each one laced with bone-deep hatred.

He couldn't accept it!

After countless eons of planning, instigating the war between the three tribes, and accumulating all that fiend qi, it was all swallowed clean by some unknown little brat!

What broke him even further was that this fiend qi hadn't become sustenance for his own path to enlightenment, but instead fueled the breakthrough of the Three Pure Ones!

"What is the origin of that little monster?"

A deep sense of dread flashed in Luohu's eyes.

To be able to devour Calamity Fiend Qi and even invoke Pangu's will – this was no ordinary existence!

Just as he struggled to stand, a figure appeared before him as silently as a ghost.

The newcomer wore a simple daoist robe, his face ancient and unadorned, his eyes as deep as the starry sky.

Merely standing there gave the impression of being one with heaven and earth.

He was the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao!

"Hongjun!"

Luohu's pupils constricted, a chill shooting straight up his spine to the crown of his head.

"Fellow Daoist Luohu, I trust you are well."

Hongjun's voice was calm and unruffled, yet each word carried the principles of heaven and earth.

His gaze swept past Luohu, looking towards Kunlun Mountain, a flicker of imperceptible shock in his eyes.

The Three Pure Ones achieving Primordial Golden Immortal status was completely beyond his expectations.

More importantly, the cause of it all was the little one they were protecting.

"What is the origin of that child?"

Hongjun mused silently.

The ability to devour Calamity Fiend Qi and invoke Pangu's will was beyond his comprehension.

"Hongjun! What are you doing here?"

Luohu forced himself to stand, demonic energy surging around him.

"Come to witness my downfall?"

"Fellow Daoist is joking."

Hongjun shook his head, his tone still placid.

"The Calamity Fiend Qi has dispersed, the war between the three tribes will soon cease, this is a blessing for the Primordial World. You instigated the Calamity, acting against heaven's will. Now that the general trend is gone, why not stop here?"

"Stop?"

Luohu suddenly burst into laughter, his mirth sharp and frantic.

"Hongjun, Hongjun, you are still so hypocritical!"

"What blessing for the Primordial World? In the end, isn't it just that my demonic path is blocking your way?"

"Do you think I've lost just because the Three Pure Ones have achieved their enlightenment?"

Luohu's laughter abruptly ceased, replaced by boundless killing intent.

"I tell you, as long as I am alive, this struggle between Dao and Demon will not end!"

"Today, I will kill you first, you hypocrite!"

Before his words had even fallen, Luohu's demonic energy surged towards the heavens, transforming into a monstrous claw that blotted out the sky and earth, striking fiercely at Hongjun!

Hongjun watched the oncoming demonic claw, his expression unchanged.

He merely let out a soft sigh.

"Stubborn and unrepentant."

A verdant bamboo staff appeared in his hand.

The staff appeared ordinary, yet it possessed three thousand six hundred and fifty nodes, each containing the laws of a world.

It was his companion spiritual treasure – the Jade Staff of Creation!

"Since Fellow Daoist has descended into demonhood, this humble one shall act on behalf of heaven."

Hongjun held the bamboo staff and gently pointed forward.

This single, seemingly unremarkable point.

It stirred the power of the entire Primordial World!

The might of the Heavenly Dao, vast and boundless!

The moment the sky-obscuring demonic claw touched the bamboo staff, it dissolved and disintegrated like ice and snow under the scorching sun.

"Pfft—"

Luohu grunted, sent flying backward, and spat out another mouthful of demonic blood.

In just one blow, the victor was decided!

"You... your strength..."

True fear appeared in Luohu's eyes.

He discovered that Hongjun's cultivation seemed to have advanced significantly again!

The aura emanating from him, one that merged with the Heavenly Dao, was even more seamless and unfathomable.

"With the Three Pure Ones proving their Dao, the Primordial World's heavenly secrets have shifted, and this humble Daoist has naturally gained some insights."

Hongjun said calmly.

Half of that statement was true, and half was false.

The Three Pure Ones' breakthrough had indeed benefited him greatly, but more importantly, Lin Shen's appearance had given him hope of quelling the Calamity.

With his Dao heart illuminated, his strength naturally soared.

"Good! Well done, Hongjun!"

Luohu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with even greater madness.

"Do you think you've won just because of this?"

He formed hand seals, and from the distant Mount Sumeru, four fallen peerless ferocious swords let out mournful cries, transforming into four streams of bloody light that flew back to his side.

Immortal Slaying Sword! Slaughtering Immortal Sword! Trapping Immortal Sword! Absolute Immortal Sword!

The four supreme treasures of slaughter circled his body, and endless sword qi surged into the sky, dyeing the entire firmament blood red!

"Hongjun, today I shall let you witness my true power!"

Luohu roared to the heavens, his voice shaking the nine skies.

"Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, rise for me... NOW!"

The four ferocious swords instantly flew to the four cardinal directions, constructing a terrifying killing formation in the void!

Sword qi crisscrossed, killing intent soared!

This was the Primordial World's foremost killing formation, an supreme, ferocious array that could only be broken by four great beings of equal standing!

Hongjun looked at the four ferocious swords, and a grave expression finally appeared in his eyes.

He knew that the real fierce battle had only just begun!
