Grand Unity Level Fierce Beast

The Primordial Great Earth had towering mountains, dense forests, plains, and hills, each with its own distinct scenery.

Because of the differing distribution of earth veins, the density of spiritual qi also varied.

Fierce Beasts often appeared wherever the environment had been damaged.

As Fierce Beasts grew ever more numerous and powerful, the destruction they inflicted upon the Primordial World also became greater.

But with the Heavenly Dao now in effect, vast amounts of Karmic Power appeared upon the Fierce Beasts.

Fierce Beasts burdened by profound Karmic Power would even suffer Heavenly Punishment.

Lu Ya traveled leisurely, gaining quite a bit from his journey.

He had acquired two Low-grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures and one Mid-grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure.

There were also Innate Spiritual Roots and Postnatal Spiritual Roots.

In the current Primordial World, Postnatal Spiritual Roots were abundant.

Yet only a few Postnatal Spiritual Roots were worthy of catching Lu Ya's eye.

Suddenly, Lu Ya stopped and gazed into the distance.

The land ahead of him was scorched black, all life extinguished.

Cracks in the ground had formed deep chasms of varying sizes, filled with death qi and resentment.

His Divine Sense detected scorched earth spanning tens of millions of li, along with some terrified wandering souls.

Before long, Lu Ya's Divine Sense locked onto the largest chasm in this scorched region.

Terrifying Innate Fiendish Qi wafted out from the chasm. It seemed a powerful Fierce Beast was lurking beneath it.

Moreover, Lu Ya sensed Karmic Power.

"What astonishing Karmic Power." Lu Ya clicked his tongue inwardly.

Under the Heavenly Dao, being entangled in Karmic Power meant one bore sins.

Those with deep Karmic Power bore sins that reached the heavens.

During his travels, Lu Ya had seen some living beings with Karmic Power, but all of theirs combined could not compare to this.

With such immense Karmic Power, it would be unreasonable if Heavenly Punishment did not descend!

He looked up at the sky. Dark clouds churned as lightning flashed, thunder roared, and fierce winds howled.

So that was it. No wonder it had hidden beneath the chasm—it was avoiding Heavenly Punishment!

Speaking of which, Lu Ya had also slain some Fierce Beasts and accumulated a little merit.

Of course, the merit gained from killing Fierce Beasts was not worth mentioning to him.

His true body benefited the Primordial Era, receiving a vast amount of merit every day.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that his true body ranked first in merit throughout the Primordial World.

Only his true body could truly be called immeasurably meritorious.

The Heavenly Dao showed favor to those with merit.

The more merit one accumulated, the more favor the Heavenly Dao bestowed.

But it was not certain that the Heavenly Dao currently favored Lu Yang the most.

In terms of merit, Lu Yang could be called the foremost in the Primordial World.

However, the Primordial World had been opened by Great God Pangu. The Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches possessed Pangu's Legacy, Great Destiny, and Great Merit, and were favored by the Heavenly Dao.

Even if the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches had less merit than Lu Yang, they might still receive greater favor from the Heavenly Dao.

Abruptly, a powerful surge of divine thought struck Lu Ya's Divine Sense.

Lu Ya's own Divine Sense was only at the Mystic Immortal level.

One had to know that even his true body's Primordial Spirit Cultivation was only close to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level.

The divine thought that struck Lu Ya's Divine Sense was extremely powerful.

It seemed that the Fierce Beast lurking beneath the chasm had sensed him.

Lu Ya's Divine Sense was shattered, injuring his primordial spirit. Fortunately, it was not a serious problem. He could recover in a few Primordial Days on his own, or instantly by borrowing his true body's power.

He glanced at the vast dark clouds overhead, which blocked out the sunlight.

With a cold snort, Lu Ya waved his hand and used magic power to part the clouds in the sky.

As the clouds split in two, sunlight streamed down.

Bathed in the radiance of the Sun Star, Lu Ya's connection to his true body became closer.

A mighty power connecting heaven and earth descended.

In an instant, Lu Ya's injured primordial spirit had fully recovered.

"Hmm?"

Just then, the clouds Lu Ya had split apart began to dissipate.

He could no longer sense the Innate Fiendish Qi or Karmic Power.

Yet the Fierce Beast lurking beneath the chasm had not fled. Instead, it emerged from the chasm.

A solemn look appeared on Lu Ya's face as he used the Sun God Eye to peer ahead.

A bizarre-looking Fierce Beast emerged from the chasm.

The Fierce Beast was grayish-black all over. Its body was not especially large, only around ten meters long.

It resembled a wild boar, with three heads and seven tails. Its fur was like countless spears, gleaming with a metallic sheen.

It had sharp, bone-white tusks, savage blood-red eyes, horns on its forehead, and bone spines along its back.

After emerging from the chasm, the Fierce Beast's body expanded with the wind.

In the blink of an eye, it grew from around ten meters to several hundred meters, then several thousand meters...

When it reached tens of thousands of zhang, its body stopped growing.

Dharma Form? No.

This was the Fierce Beast's true form.

If such an enormous body used Dharma Form, how massive would it become? Hundreds of thousands of zhang? Millions?

Like a towering mountain, every movement it made was terrifying.

Although Lu Ya stood hundreds of li away from the Fierce Beast, his heart still trembled.

A terrifying aura crashed toward him.

"Grand... Grand Unity level?"

Lu Ya's eyes widened.

That was right. It was a Grand Unity level Fierce Beast.

There were also quite a few Chaos-colored Talismans on the Fierce Beast's body.

The Chaos-colored Talismans had sealed away most of its Karmic Power, allowing it to evade Heavenly Punishment.

This intrigued Lu Ya.

Chaos Talismans capable of sealing Karmic Power were truly extraordinary!

The Fierce Beast fixed its gaze upon Lu Ya.

Its aura, divine thought, and Innate Fiendish Qi...

All bore down upon Lu Ya with the force of heaven collapsing.

Grand Unity level Magic Power also erupted from the Fierce Beast's body.

In the current Primordial World, Heavenly Immortal level cultivators were everywhere, and Mystic Immortal level cultivators were commonplace, but Grand Unity level cultivators were few.

Even in the powerful Phoenix Clan, only Yuan Feng was at the Grand Unity level.

And judging from this Fierce Beast's divine thought, its Dao attainment was quite low.

Not only had it failed to attain a Grand Unity Dao Fruit, it certainly had not even attained a Grand Unity Dao Fruit.

Dao Fruits could be divided into the Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit, Qianyuan Dao Fruit, Grand Unity Dao Fruit, Grand Unity Dao Fruit, and Hunyuan Dao Fruit.

The Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit was already extraordinary: when one's merit was complete, one forgot the form; the fetal immortal transformed on its own; yin was exhausted and yang became pure; one possessed a body beyond the body; one shed the mortal shell and ascended to immortality; one transcended the ordinary and entered sainthood; one performed great deeds for heaven and earth and great works across past and present.

As for the Qianyuan Dao Fruit, great indeed was Qianyuan; all things begin from it, and it governed heaven.

The Grand Unity Dao Fruit was even more wondrous and profound, something that could be comprehended but not spoken.

If one attained a Grand Unity Dao Fruit, even after losing all magic power, they would still be extremely difficult to erase.

A Grand Unity level cultivator with only magic power was much easier to deal with.

Throughout the Primordial World, from ancient times to the present, there had been countless cultivators who pursued only magic power and not Dao attainment.

Yet due to limitations in innate endowment, cultivation techniques, and Dao attainment, accumulating magic power became increasingly difficult.

It was not true that cultivating for a long time meant one would accumulate more magic power.

There were many immortals in the Primordial World, but those who had accumulated Grand Unity level Magic Power were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns—no, phoenix feathers and qilin horns were nothing remarkable in the Primordial World.

Under such circumstances, Yellow Middle Plum and the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir, which could directly grant someone Grand Unity level Magic Power, were incredibly precious.

Of course, Yellow Middle Plum was still only a sapling, far from flowering and bearing fruit.

No one could yet refine the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir!

Merely gathering the materials needed to refine the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir was extremely difficult.

In short, Grand Unity level Magic Power was not something one could obtain so casually.

With the Fierce Beast's gaze fixed on him, Lu Ya's scalp tingled.

Even by borrowing my true body's power, I can only reach the Grand Unity level for a short time. It would be difficult even to defeat this Fierce Beast, much less kill it. Lu Ya calculated inwardly.

Lu Ya could deal with Grand Unity level opponents easily, since he could temporarily reach the Grand Unity level.

Having a powerful true body was indeed beneficial.

But facing a Grand Unity level opponent—and a Fierce Beast at that—would be difficult.

This Fierce Beast clearly cultivated God-Demon Body Refinement.

Looking at the Chaos Talismans on the Fierce Beast's body, Lu Ya fell into thought.

It had only been a guess before, but now he could be certain.

God-Demon Body Refinement had nine turns, and nearly all Fierce Beasts cultivated this technique.

Cultivating God-Demon Body Refinement could transform one into a Demon God.

The First through Fourth Turns created Postnatal Demon Gods, the Fifth through Eighth Turns created Innate Demon Gods, and the final Ninth Turn should create Chaos Demon Gods.

This was not merely a leap in strength, but also an elevation of innate endowment.

An evolution in the essence of life.

As for this Grand Unity level Fierce Beast, Lu Ya guessed that it had cultivated God-Demon Body Refinement to the Seventh Turn.
