Hongjun Severed All Three Corpses and Attained the Dao Amid Primordial Chaos!

After obtaining the Ren Water Peach Tree, Taichu returned directly to the back mountain of Taichu Palace!

After Caifeng's arrangements, the back mountain of Taichu Palace now brimmed with even more vitality!

Immortal cranes circled through the sky, while koi frolicked in the pond—a true blessed land of the immortals!

As Taichu looked at the Enlightenment Tea Tree, Moon Laurel Tree, Yellow Center Plum, and Fusang Tree on the back mountain, joy surged through his heart once more!

Taking out the Ren Water Peach Tree, Taichu did as usual: he carefully snapped off a branch, placed it inside the Chaos Pearl, then planted it beside the Yellow Center Plum!

Seeing the many Three Immortals Island beings cultivating beneath the Enlightenment Tea Tree, Taichu felt even more satisfied!

There were already nearly a hundred early-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal experts beneath the Enlightenment Tree!

The Three Immortals Island at this time was like a paradise beyond the mortal world!

Yet in stark contrast to the Three Immortals Island was the Primordial Continent at this moment!

The great war among the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans grew ever fiercer!

Tens of thousands of Primordial beings had also been swept into the battlefield!

Just as the three clans fought to the death!

A distinguished guest arrived at the Southern Blazing Undying Volcano. The man was tall and imposing, his voice booming like a great bell, his bearing mighty and domineering!

It was none other than Shi Qilin, leader of the Qilin Clan!

"Fellow Daoist Yuan Feng, have you considered it?"

"Fellow Daoist Shi Qilin, though the war among the three clans has yet to cease, our high-level forces have not participated after all! If our two clans join forces, would we not directly offend Zu Long?"

Yuan Feng spoke with concern!

"Fellow Daoist Yuan Feng, that is not how it should be seen. Neither of our clans, taken alone, is a match for the Dragon Clan! I believe Zu Long sees this more clearly than we do, which is why the Dragon Clan's top-tier forces have never acted! But if we continue allowing the Dragon Clan to nibble away at us, by the time we come to our senses, it will be too late!"

It had to be said that Shi Qilin's words made perfect sense, but Yuan Feng still did not wish to take that final step!

As Yuan Feng fell silent, Shi Qilin said, "Since that is the case, I will not force you, Fellow Daoist! If the day comes when my Qilin Clan is destroyed, I fear that by then, Fellow Daoist, your regrets will come too late! Shi Qilin takes his leave!"

With that, he turned to leave with the Qilin Clan experts!

"Fellow Daoist Shi Qilin, wait!"

Yuan Feng took out a Jade Talisman and handed it to Shi Qilin!

"If that day truly comes, shatter this Jade Talisman, Fellow Daoist. My Phoenix Clan will certainly come to your aid!"

Shi Qilin accepted the Jade Talisman, performed a Daoist salute, and hurried back toward the Qilin Clan!

Within Zu Long's palace in the Endless Sea Domain!

The Dragon Clan experts were all furious, for they had already received word that the Qilin Clan had secretly joined forces with the Phoenix Clan!

"Dragon Ancestor, the Qilin Clan's ambitions are now laid bare. If we do not strike first, then once they form an alliance with the Phoenix Clan, our Dragon Clan will surely be attacked from both front and rear!"

A Dragon Clan expert said!

After hearing this, Zu Long's brow twitched slightly, but he said nothing!

Zhu Long said, "It is not suitable to take the initiative and provoke war at this time. The three clans seem to have reached an unspoken understanding: aside from our upper echelons, practically everyone has joined the war! The Qilin Clan and Phoenix Clan are considerably weaker than our Dragon Clan, so for now, we should remain still and wait at ease for the exhausted enemy. When the two clans can no longer hold back, we will strike suddenly and catch them completely off guard!"

After hearing Zhu Long's words, Zu Long nodded slightly in agreement.

Afterward, Zu Long dispatched several shrewd Dragon Clan envoys to infiltrate Phoenix Clan and Qilin Clan territory to gather intelligence.

At the same time, the Phoenix Clan and Qilin Clan were also secretly watching the Dragon Clan's movements!

The tense atmosphere among the three clans grew ever thicker. The flames of war could ignite at any moment, and only a hair's breadth remained before all-out war!

And so, the upper echelons of the three clans remained quiet for another several tens of thousands of years!

Then one day, in the Qilin Clan's ancestral land upon the Central Great Land!

Shi Qilin's rage soared to the heavens. He sat high at the head of the hall, while all the Qilin Clan's high-level forces stood ready and poised to strike!

Because the Qilin Prince had been ambushed and killed by the Dragon Clan!

The Qilin Clan differed from the Dragon Clan. Dragons were inherently lustful, so there were countless Dragon Princes!

But the Qilin Clan was different. The Qilin Clan placed great importance on the continuation of its bloodline, so Shi Qilin did not have many descendants!

Ink Qilin burned with rage. "Big Brother, I say there is nothing left to wait for. If this continues, our Qilin Clan will be slaughtered to the last by the Dragon Clan!"

Fire Qilin had always been hot-tempered. Hearing Ink Qilin say this!

He also said, "That's right, Big Brother. Must we wait until we are all dead before you make a decision? If you will not act, then I will go avenge my nephew myself!"

Shi Qilin was also torn beyond measure. If war began, the Qilin Clan truly could not match the Dragon Clan. But if they did not fight, his own son had died a miserable death and he would not avenge him—then what use was ruling all under heaven!

"Big Brother, stop hesitating! If we don't make a decision now, my Qilin Clan will have no place left to stand!" Even Water Qilin, who had always been mild-tempered, spoke up!

After a long while, Shi Qilin said, "Do you all understand that once this war begins, there will be no turning back? When that time comes, the fate of my Qilin Clan—life or death—will be uncertain!"

Everyone answered, "Even if we die ten times over, we will have no regrets!"

"Good! Since that is so, my Qilin Clan shall wage war against the Dragon Clan—until one side is dead!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

For a time, killing cries shook the heavens throughout the Qilin Clan!

Other than Shi Qilin, every member of the Qilin Clan's upper ranks took part in the war!

This battle came without warning. Starting from the Central Great Land, the Qilin Clan slaughtered every Dragon Clan affiliate!

Ink Qilin led the Qilin Clan army all the way to the East Sea Coast!

Just as the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans fully entered into war, Hongjun also severed his third corpse!

Within Jade Capital Mountain!

At this moment, Dao resonance coiled around Hongjun's body as he continuously chanted under his breath!

He suddenly roared, "Sever!"

Within his Spirit Platform, he severed his third corpse—the Self Corpse!

From this point on, Hongjun entered the Three-Corpse Quasi-Sage realm! It was also the highest realm beneath that of a Heavenly Dao Sage!

Just as Hongjun severed his Self Corpse, Taichu and Yang Mei entered the Chaos Passage as well!

At this point, Taichu had already remained at the great perfection of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm for over a hundred thousand years. He had reached the threshold of a breakthrough at any moment!

After more than a hundred thousand years of cultivation, Yang Mei had also healed his Dao Injury!

His cultivation had likewise reached the peak of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm, only a single step away from great perfection!

"Fellow Daoist Taichu, prepare to begin! I will protect you," Yang Mei said!

Taichu nodded!

He then sat down cross-legged on the spot, preparing to charge into the Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm!

In the blink of an eye, three thousand years passed. Dao resonance swirled around Taichu's body, clear cries rang out from the sky, and countless streams of chaos spiritual energy surged madly toward Taichu!

Yet just as Taichu reached the critical moment of his breakthrough, a sudden change arose!

"How dare you!"

Following Yang Mei's furious shout, a Ten Thousand Zhang Giant strode toward them!

The Ten Thousand Zhang Giant had been drawn here by the Chaos Essence Qi absorbed by Taichu!

Hearing Yang Mei's furious roar, he threw a punch at Yang Mei and Taichu!

Yang Mei stood before Taichu. Unable to evade, he could only circulate all his mana and withstand it head-on!

Boom!

With that one punch, Yang Mei was blasted ten thousand li away!

Seeing the Ten Thousand Zhang Giant throw another punch at Taichu, Yang Mei wielded the Law of Space, cleaving through the sky to return, and once again blocked the giant before Taichu!

Boom!

After another deafening explosion, Chaos Astral Winds erupted in every direction and swept toward Taichu!
