Taichu immediately furrowed his brow and carefully sensed the surrounding Starry Sky!
He muttered softly.
"Such dense baleful aura... It seems that during the Fierce Beast Tribulation, quite a few Fierce Beasts escaped the calamity. After countless Eons, they have apparently begun to take shape!"
Taichu extended his right hand and casually grasped toward the depths of the Starry Sky. Strands of gray-black energy immediately curled around his fingertips.
At the same time, a violent, chaotic, and restless will faintly seeped into Taichu's Primordial Spirit.
"Fierce Beasts at the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal level? It seems there is more than just one or two!"
"It must be because these Fierce Beasts have grown powerful on their own, and because they fled into Chaos. With Chaos at their backs, they are like fish in water there, and their growth will only be faster!"
Taichu had not forgotten that Fierce Beasts were born from the obsessions of Chaos Demon Gods, along with a small portion of their Original Source, combined with baleful aura.
Because they innately contained the Original Source of Chaos Demon Gods, the physical bodies of Fierce Beasts were far stronger than those of the Ten Thousand Races of the Primordial Wilderness.
They were even better suited to surviving within Chaos.
After the Fierce Beast Tribulation, Yangmei had told Taichu that Shen Ni likely had not perished, but had instead escaped into Chaos.
With that Fierce Beast, formed from the lingering will and Original Source of a Chaos Demon God, leading them,
they would naturally thrive within Chaos.
"Perhaps this was the real reason Hongjun later forbade the Sages from returning to the Primordial Wilderness. By having the Sages fight Fierce Beasts at its borders, he could weaken the Fierce Beasts on one hand and carry out his autocratic plans on the other!"
Of course, Taichu believed there might be even more secret schemes behind it all.
"Whatever he plans, and whether there is someone behind him or not, now that I am here in the Primordial Wilderness, I will not allow such petty villains to lay their hands upon it!"
Taichu immediately followed the connection to the baleful aura in his hand and found the Fierce Beasts invading the Primordial World.
Hun Yuan Power emerged around Taichu, and he vanished from where he stood.
The next moment, when he reappeared, he was already at the boundary where the Primordial Starry Sky met Chaos.
The source of the Fierce Beast aura Taichu had seized earlier also appeared directly within his sight. Looking toward the edge of the world, he saw the innumerable Ferocious Beast Army.
From time to time, they were crushed by Primordial Star Power, turning into strands of Original Source that merged directly into the world.
Taichu was not surprised by this in the slightest.
Yet as Primordial Star Power was continuously expended, Taichu faintly sensed that the Primordial Star Origin was gradually weakening.
"Ancient Stars cannot exist forever. If this continues, when their Star Origin is exhausted, the Primordial Starry Sky will vanish from the Primordial Wilderness!"
However, Taichu also sensed that as the Fierce Beasts were destroyed and their Original Source merged into the world,
new stars were being born as well. Though few in number, they could at least serve as a replacement.
Taichu could see that when the Primordial Starry Sky dispersed, those newborn stars would take its place.
Yet how could newborn stars possibly compare to Ancient Stars? The gap between them reminded Taichu of Innate Beings and Acquired Beings.
There was likewise an insurmountable gulf between the two.
Although Postnatal level existences possessed great potential for growth, while Innate existences had their upper limits restricted,
there was still something Postnatal level objects could never compare to Innate Objects in.
That was Original Source. In the Primordial World, Original Source was ultimately the most important thing.
"Since I have arrived, you Fierce Beasts can forget about continuing to deplete the Primordial Foundation!"
As Taichu's words fell, Hun Yuan Power emerged and descended into the Ferocious Beast Army in an instant.
In a flash, Laws spread across the battlefield. Wherever they passed, the Fierce Beasts turned into Xu Wu, becoming wisps of minute Original Source that swiftly merged into the world.
The moment Taichu acted, cries of alarm suddenly arose from within the Primordial Starry Sky.
"What kind of existence is that? He wiped out so much of the Ferocious Beast Army with a single strike! He feels countless times stronger than even our lord!"
"How is that possible? What kind of existence is our lord? How could anyone stronger than him happen to appear in the Primordial Starry Sky?"
"Exactly! I heard that those existences on the Primordial Land do not take our Primordial Starry Sky seriously at all!"
"Well, it was because too many Primordial Star Gods perished in the Fierce Beast Tribulation!"
"Enough! Have you forgotten our lord's orders? Do not discuss this matter again!"
Soon, countless gazes turned toward the edge of the Primordial World, all wishing to see what kind of existence had appeared in the Primordial Starry Sky and was hunting Fierce Beasts.
Over these years, aside from the remaining Starry Sky Beings, no living being from the Primordial Land had ever appeared here.
"Gouchen, who do you think it is to possess such strength? If you were not injured, could you achieve such a feat?"
"Ziwei, say no more. Such an existence is no longer on the same level as us!"
Two faint voices quietly conversed.
But who was Taichu? He was at the Third Layer of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, an existence on the verge of breaking through to the fourth layer.
Combined with his control over the Primordial Wilderness, how could they possibly hide from him?
"It seems that although the Primordial Star Gods retained some foundation after the Fierce Beast Tribulation, they are only half-crippled now!"
From the conversation between the two and the auras they emitted, Taichu easily discerned their current condition.
Their Original Source had been damaged and was difficult to heal. It was not that it could not be healed, merely that it was difficult.
At the very least, Taichu did not believe the Primordial Starry Sky possessed such means.
Taichu's eyes suddenly lit up, and an idea came to him.
He swiftly unleashed several attacks, targeting the Fierce Beasts at the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal level and sending them directly into the beast horde.
"Gouchen, look! Those attacks are coming again!"
"That is too powerful! A single strike directly killed a Fierce Beast at the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal level. Even in our prime, with our full-strength attacks, we could not have killed these Primordial Origin Golden Immortal-level Fierce Beasts so easily!"
The existence called Ziwei watched as Taichu cleared away the Fierce Beasts as easily as chopping vegetables, and his heart could not help but tremble. He sighed softly.
"Gouchen, Ziwei! Are you remnants of the Primordial Star Gods?"
Just as Ziwei was sighing, a teasing voice suddenly entered his ears.
Ziwei and Gouchen's hairs instantly stood on end, their bodies stiffening as they immediately became vigilant and looked toward the source of the voice.
Before long, a handsome man wearing a pale green robe, with long blue-gray hair, appeared in their field of vision. Like an exiled immortal, he smiled as he examined the two of them.
Seeing this, Gouchen quickly asked,
"Who are you? Why are you able to appear here?"
The two had suffered damage to their Original Source long ago. To replenish it, they had remained within the Ancient Stars.
With the Star Power frequently emitted by the Primordial Starry Sky, they slowed their steadily worsening condition.
At the same time, they had laid a Stellar Grand Array around the area, one at the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal level.
Even someone at the Peak Golden Immortal of the Origin would have to spend considerable effort breaking the grand array they had set, even with familiarity with it.
Yet Taichu had not only entered it with ease, but had done so without alerting them, the ones who had arranged the array.
Combined with what they had just witnessed on the Starry Battlefield, the two Primordial Star Gods could not help forming a guess.
In an instant, their throats bobbed as unease filled their hearts, and they stiffly studied Taichu before them.
