Why is there such terrifying power of destruction? Even the Immortal Slaughtering Sword and the Pangu Banner cannot compare.

Receiver and Cundi were even more perplexed.

Wasn't Taiqing specialized in defense? Why had he mastered such a pure Dao of Destruction?

Within the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun's gaze sharpened, his expression filled with astonishment.

This power of destruction was too horrifying; it even made him think of the legendary Millstone of World Extinction.

Only a Chaos Supreme Treasure could emit an aura that made the entire world tremble.

But then he shook his head, dismissing the thought.

The Millstone of World Extinction had long been damaged; besides, how could Taiqing possibly control a Chaos Supreme Treasure? There must be some other secret.

"Taiqing has hidden quite a bit; it truly needs deeper investigation." Hongjun narrowed his eyes, killing intent rising in his heart.

Though Saints were immortal and indestructible, that didn't mean they couldn't be dealt with.

On the Primordial Land, Hongjun's Evil Corpse flashed a cold gleam in its eyes.

Taiqing erupted with full force, the peak Primordial Chaos power pressing down like a cascade of stars, completely enveloping Hongjun's Evil Corpse.

This battle shook the Primordial Land; all powerhouses held their breath, waiting for the final outcome.

In an instant, the Heavenly Disciples resounded, and the void shattered.

The light of destruction released by Taiqing swallowed everything, and Hongjun's Evil Corpse dissipated into nothingness within it.

The Primordial World Beings stared in disbelief, unable to accept that the Dao Ancestor's Evil Corpse had been erased.

The Primordial Land fell into a deathly silence, then erupted into earth-shaking cheers. "Did the Taiqing Saint truly destroy the Dao Ancestor's Evil Corpse?" This news spread rapidly across the entire world.

Heavens! The Dao Ancestor was the Heavenly Dao! And the Taiqing Saint actually did it!

Dao Ancestor Hongjun had been undefeated since ancient times, and later merged with the Heavenly Dao, becoming the supreme existence.

This was a fact known to all Primordial World Beings.

Yet, beneath the Saints, all were ants; even under the Heavenly Dao, Saints were as insignificant as ants.

Even if it was just an incarnation of the Dao Ancestor's Evil Corpse, it was still an invincible existence that shook the Primordial Land.

But the Taiqing Saint had completely annihilated it before the eyes of all Primordial World Beings!

This act brought a tremendous shock to the Primordial World Beings, especially the ancient powerhouses who had witnessed the Dao Ancestor merging with the Dao; they were utterly shaken.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would have dared to believe it.

The Primordial World Beings were stunned by the Taiqing Saint's slaying of Hongjun's Evil Corpse.

In the Blood Sea, Styx was shocked, and at the same time, made up his mind.

"The Taiqing Saint is this powerful? If I get the chance, I must seek the Dao from him!"

Atop Spirit Mountain, Kong Xuan was shaken, too excited to calm down.

With the Taiqing Saint so strong, his hope for revenge grew greater.

On Spirit Mountain, Duobao was thrilled.

This was truly the unparalleled supreme Saint of all ages!

With the Taiqing Saint here, the Three Teachings would surely usher in their most glorious era.

Within Square Inch Mountain, Sun Wukong rubbed his eyes, unable to believe what he saw. "Isn't this Dao Ancestor Hongjun the Heavenly Dao? Why was his Evil Corpse slain by the Taiqing Saint?" Sun Wukong gasped. "I wonder if the Taiqing Saint is stronger, or my master."

Inside Grand Simplicity Heaven, Lu Ya, in quiet cultivation, witnessed this scene and was deeply shaken.

At West Kunlun, the Queen Mother of the West's beautiful eyes flickered; she couldn't believe the Taiqing Saint had truly defeated the Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Evil Corpse.

On Southern Bright Mountain, Six-Eared Macaque was ecstatic. Since there existed one who could rival the Dao Ancestor, perhaps his own opportunity was near.

Because of Hongjun's words, "The Dao is not transmitted to the Six-Eared," no one in the Primordial Land dared to teach him the Great Dao. One of the Four Divine Monkeys, Six-Eared Macaque, had only barely reached the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, relying entirely on the Primordial Land's upgrade power.

The East Sea churned, everything awaiting change.

The Four Sea Dragon Kings looked at each other; the supreme Dao Ancestor having his Evil Corpse slain was something East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang had never imagined.

"The Taiqing Saint's strength is so terrifying; the future structure of the Primordial Land will surely change greatly."

"Unfortunately, the Dragon Race likely won't have a place in these changes."

Hearing this, the Four Sea Dragon Kings all sighed.

After the battle with the Heavenly Court, the Dragon Race's foundation was nearly exhausted; without a great opportunity, they might sink to a lowly race.

In the Northern Abyss, Kunpeng was deeply shocked.

The Taiqing Saint's power could actually match the Dao Ancestor.

He keenly sensed that the Primordial Land was about to enter a brand-new era.

Within the Five Villages Monastery, Zhen Yuanzi's Dao heart trembled as he sighed in admiration. "Daoist Taiqing is unparalleled in the world; from now on, the Primordial Land may be rewritten because of him."

In the Underworld, Houtu stood up in excitement. "Daoist Taiqing can indeed contend with Hongjun; allying with him is surely the wisest choice for the Witch Race and the Underworld."

In the Heavenly Court, Nüwa's eyes flickered. "Just how powerful is Senior Taiqing? It seems allying with the Three Pure Ones is my best choice."

Tongtian and Yuanshi were also shocked.

The elder brother's performance was truly stunning!

But soon, the two were overjoyed.

"Big Brother is unmatched in the world!"

"Unique through the ages!"

"Haha! Big Brother is truly formidable!"

The two quickly accepted Taiqing's strength.

In their eyes, this was nothing unusual.

What was so hard about killing one of Hongjun's Evil Corpse?

This was merely a display of Big Brother's true power!

Yet Tongtian and Yuanshi never imagined, this was far from Taiqing's real capability.

After all, Taiqing had too many hidden cards, the Chaos Pearl and Source Authority, enough to make even Hongjun wary.

But Taiqing had no intention of revealing these.

Defeating Hongjun's Evil Corpse was enough for now.

He was not one to show off, only here to change the situation.

That was all.

At this moment, disciples of the Three Teachings shouted excitedly:

"Taiqing Senior Uncle, Divine Might Covers the World!"

"Eternal and Immortal!"

They were ecstatic.

They had thought the Three Masters would lose, but who knew Taiqing alone would reverse Heaven and Earth!

Such power commanded admiration.

Xuandu and Ying Zheng gazed at their master with even deeper reverence.

In their hearts, this was the greatest existence in the Primordial Wilderness.

Even the Dao Ancestor could not compare!

"Master, you're simply too amazing!"

Ying Zheng was thrilled.

Fuxi and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors exchanged glances, filled with emotion.

"Taiqing Saint, truly worthy of the name."

"The future of the Human race will surely flourish!"

Taiqing Saint was the Leader of the Renjiao Sect, and Ying Zheng was his direct disciple.

Thus, the Human race's future was bound to be brilliant.

Xingtian and Jiufeng smiled at each other, equally inspired.

Though the Witch Race feared nothing, they deeply understood the Dao Ancestor's majesty.

That Taiqing Saint could slay the Dao Ancestor's Evil Corpse earned their utmost respect.

At the same time, they realized the Underworld's prospects were equally bright, as Ancestral Witch Houtu was allied with Taiqing Saint.

In the Heavenly Court, Receiver and Cundi were nearly in despair.

What was going on?

Taiqing could actually kill the Dao Ancestor's Evil Corpse, a Primordial Chaos peak existence!

They simply couldn't believe it.

The Buddhist Sect in the Heavenly Court fell into panic, especially Burning Lamp and Haotian, who regretted involving themselves in the Human Immortal Qin affair.

The power Taiqing displayed was chilling, utterly terrifying.

Even the Dao Ancestor's Evil Corpse was no match!

With the Three Pure Ones this strong, who could stop them?

Inside the Purple Cloud Palace.

Hongjun's Original Body's expression shifted dramatically.

His demeanor grew grave. He couldn't tell whether Taiqing's power was genuine or if some other mysterious force was backing him.

Either way, it boded ill for Hongjun.

But Hongjun sensed that the ultimate destructive force Taiqing had unleashed bore no connection to Pangu.

Clearly, the Three Pure Ones had yet to truly comprehend Pangu's Dao.

That titan who split heaven and earth would not return.

This gave Hongjun some relief.

Yet what Hongjun failed to notice was that Taiqing hadn't chosen the Dao of Strength because his own Dao surpassed it.

At this moment, above the Nine Heavens.

Taiqing suddenly felt a resonance.

He perceived that his own Dao was profoundly mysterious, having just defeated Hongjun's Evil Corpse.

This made Taiqing's Dao insight clear and unobstructed.

Taiqing immediately realized that the time had come for him to attain the Limitless Dao.

Without hesitation, he swallowed the Limitless Dao Origin Pill.

"Two worthy brothers, look after the disciples for now."

"I need to cultivate in stillness."

After speaking with a smile, Taiqing sat cross-legged and entered meditation.

Boundless chaotic divine light swirled around him.

Completely enveloping Taiqing!

Taiqing's goal was above the Heavenly Court!

He would directly attain the Limitless Dao!

Tongtian and Yuanshi were both stunned!

Their elder brother was far too decisive!

He'd just destroyed Hongjun's Evil Corpse!

And now he was starting to cultivate?

Wasn't he afraid of being ambushed?

But Taiqing showed no fear!

He had not a trace of dread!

Even if the Heavenly Dao Hongjun himself made a move!

Taiqing had ample confidence to handle it.

Purple Cloud Palace.

A thought stirred in Hongjun's mind.

Taiqing's emotionless state of mind surfaced in his thoughts.

All emotions were restrained.

Hongjun's face regained its calm.

But his gaze grew even colder.

Since the Three Pure Ones had no backing from Pangu, Hongjun believed no one could stand against him.

Yet in Hongjun's eyes, Taiqing remained far too much of a Variable.

Whether it was Taiqing's own uniqueness or some mysterious force behind him, Hongjun would not tolerate the Three Pure Ones being so arrogant.

Moreover, Taiqing's actions had offended heavenly authority, Damaging his prestige to some extent.

This caused undercurrents to stir across the Primordial World, with many forces growing restless.

In this Primordial World that had endured for billions of years, The powerful beings that had survived to this day were clearly no pushovers.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Evil Corpse had been destroyed.

They had begun to entertain thoughts that Hongjun would not permit.

Therefore, Hongjun had to deal with Taiqing harshly, nipping all possible Variables in the bud.

Especially the Three Pure Ones themselves—Hongjun's gaze turned extremely cold.

He had already made up his mind to completely eliminate this threat.

To suppress and kill the Three Pure Ones, Hongjun's Original Body need not act personally; he only needed to send down the Infinite Sacred Power.

As one who had merged with the Dao, Hongjun's might far surpassed the imagination of all saints.

Even if Taiqing could defeat his Evil Corpse, in Hongjun's eyes, he was merely a slightly larger ant.

As for whether Taiqing could be a Primal Unity Limitless? Absolutely impossible.

Attaining the Wuji Great Dao was immensely difficult, and Hongjun himself had only reached this realm by virtue of his talent for merging with the Dao.

No one else in the Primordial World could possibly touch the Wuji Great Dao.

Yet at this moment, the Heavenly Dao void trembled, and the Heavenly Dao order roared.

Hongjun's pupils contracted slightly as he quickly looked toward the Primordial Land.

There, the sky over the Primordial Land was filled with unusual phenomena—heaven and earth spiritual energy surged, the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws rippled, and faint traces of the Wuji Great Dao's mysteries could be seen manifesting.

All of this left Hongjun incredulous.

What shocked him most was that the Heavenly secrets of the Primordial Land had actually fallen into disorder.

Within the Primordial Land, Taiqing was enveloped by the Supreme Chaos Mystic Light.

The Chaos Divine Light surrounded him, making it impossible even for saints to probe his condition.

At this moment, all the saints were utterly stunned.

They even doubted whether Taiqing was still in his original place, for he had completely vanished without a trace, his aura entirely gone.

This left everyone exchanging bewildered glances—could they not even detect a saint right before their eyes?

Receiver and Cundi were shaken to the core, while Nüwa marveled at Taiqing's power and mystery, each revelation only showing the tip of the iceberg.

Yuanshi and Tongtian were equally awestruck—their elder brother was truly an unparalleled existence.

Just as the crowd was stunned, the Primordial Land suddenly trembled, heaven and earth spiritual energy surged, and supreme Dao ripples pulsed without cease.

The Three Thousand Great Dao Laws flowed like a meteor shower, tracing countless trajectories across the sky, causing all living beings to shudder.

Such extraordinary phenomena, surpassing even saints—could it be that the world was about to advance?

All the saints were deeply captivated by this wondrous sight.

Was that supreme existence once again pushing the world to evolve?

But the truth was otherwise.

The Primordial World was now undergoing a transformation, yet it was not caused by that power—it was the result of Taiqing attaining the Wuji Great Dao.

Taiqing had already grasped the Primordial Origin, and attaining the Wuji Great Dao was not only an elevation of his own origin but also a feedback into the Primordial Origin, causing the entire Primordial World to resonate.

Shrouded in the light of the Chaos Pearl, Taiqing was within the Primordial World yet transcended its dimensions.

He existed in the deepest layer of the Primordial World, where the void was filled with the aura of the Primordial Origin.
