Archaic Heavenly Dang, Shen Ni

Tens of thousands of Fierce Beasts roamed the Great Earth, each one immense in size.

The larger Fierce Beasts stood ten thousand zhang tall, like moving mountains, their steps causing the very ground to shake.

When countless Fierce Beasts gathered, they formed a torrent of power, capable of crushing everything in their path.

If these Fierce Beasts united their strength, it was not impossible for them to roar the Archaic Stars from the heavens.

Overwhelming malevolent aura solidified into tangible form.

Yet, these Fierce Beasts were now all fleeing in terror, a great terror pursuing them from behind.

The terror came from a small banner.

A mere foot and seven inches long, the dark red banner emitted a dazzling divine light.

This was an Innate Spiritual Treasure, and a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure at that.

It contained forty-two Innate restrictions.

Now, it was being powered by Grand Unity Magic Power.

Some Fierce Beasts recognized it as Yuan Feng's treasure.

It was also a prized possession of the Phoenix Clan.

One of the Five Innate Directional Banners, the Earth-Leaving Flame-Light Banner.

Upon its activation, this treasure grew to immense size, radiating countless rays of light that illuminated all realms. It was impervious to all magic, repelled all evil, and shook the ancient past, obliterating all that had come before.

In an instant, the Earth-Leaving Flame-Light Banner grew to thousands of zhang in size, and then it unleashed a vast amount of Innate Li Fire.

The Li Fire transformed into countless giant birds, which soared and pounced upon the Fierce Beasts.

Above the clouds, Yuan Feng looked down indifferently at the Fierce Beasts below.

Although the Phoenix Clan had received Destiny, Yuan Feng intended to exterminate the Fierce Beasts completely, adhering to the principle of leaving no evil unchecked.

Besides, there were many benefits to be gained from killing the Fierce Beasts.

Resources, Merit, Destiny...

As time passed, only a hundred billion Fierce Beasts remained in the Primordial Era.

The flesh and blood of the countless slain Fierce Beasts nourished the Primordial Era, accelerating its growth.

Lu Yang felt this keenly.

As the Primordial Era grew, the Sun Star had strengthened considerably.

In terms of Magic Power, it was equivalent to about one million two hundred thousand Quasi-Sages.

As his comprehension of the Heavenly Dao deepened, Lu Yang also understood.

Sages were Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortals, but Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortals were not necessarily Sages.

Grand Unity Golden Immortals possessing Hunyuan-level Magic Power were Quasi-Sages.

Grand Unity Golden Immortals who had attained the Grand Unity Dao Fruit were Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

Once the Grand Unity Dao Fruit was attained, a subtle connection was established with the world. As the world grew, their own Magic Power would continuously increase.

As for Sages, they were Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortals whose Primordial Spirits were entrusted to the Heavenly Dao. They had a close connection with the Primordial Era, but it was not as profound as the connection between the Sun Star and the Primordial Era.

Therefore, in this situation, as the Primordial Era grew, the Magic Power of Sages would naturally also increase significantly.

Currently, Lu Yang's physical cultivation was equivalent to over a million Hunyuan-level beings.

Lu Ya and Yuan Feng had split up.

Lu Ya was not particularly enthusiastic about killing Fierce Beasts.

However, billions of Fierce Beasts had still met their end at Lu Ya's hands.

As the Phoenix Clan received Destiny, Lu Ya, as a member of the Phoenix Clan, also benefited.

If not for his poor Origin/Foundation, Lu Ya's cultivation would have advanced even faster.

Through his own efforts, combined with the assistance of the Sun Star, Lu Ya had now barely reached Grand Unity level cultivation.

Given Lu Ya's Origin/Foundation and the time he had spent cultivating, achieving Grand Unity level cultivation was already incredible.

Currently, Lu Ya was looking towards the west.

Under the scrutiny of his Sun God Eye, a sky-high malevolent aura emanated from the distant west.

"The dying struggles of the Fierce Beasts?"

In the west, within the Archaic Heavenly Dang Mountain Range, the very first Fierce Beast since the Creation resided deep within this mountain range.

This Fierce Beast, who called himself Shen Ni, was the Emperor of the Fierce Beasts.

Not only was he the first Fierce Beast, but he was also the most powerful Fierce Beast since ancient times.

Shen Ni's true form was a million zhang tall, his appearance ferocious and terrifying. He possessed three hundred and sixty-six heads, exceeding the number of stars in the heavens, seventy-two legs, thirty-six horns, and ten thousand tails.

His feet trod the Earthly Fiends, his head crowned by the Heavenly Beams.

All laws followed him.

"Penetrating heaven and earth" wasn't enough to describe Shen Ni.

He had cultivated the God-Demon Body Refinement to the Eighth Turn, and was now a top-tier Innate Demon God.

He was just one step away from becoming a Chaos Demon God.

Under this Calamity targeting the Fierce Beasts, countless Fierce Beasts fled to the Archaic Heavenly Dang Mountain Range, seeking Shen Ni's protection.

And during this Calamity, many powerful beings came to deal with Shen Ni.

The mighty Rahula came to face Shen Ni, but could do nothing against him.

Ancestor Yin Yang and Ancestor Xuantian also came to deal with Shen Ni, but none of them could defeat him, let alone kill him.

Most Fierce Beasts had shallow Dao Cultivation, but Shen Ni was an exception.

Perhaps he was the first being in the Primordial Era to prove the Grand Unity Dao Fruit.

At this moment, dense Chaos Talismans appeared on Shen Ni's massive body, sealing the Karma upon him.

It was estimated that no being in the Primordial Era had more Karma than Shen Ni.

Furthermore, ten Great Thousand Worlds were distributed around Shen Ni. The dimensions of these Great Thousand Worlds were on par with the Primordial Era, each containing billions of Fierce Beasts.

Many Fierce Beasts sang praises to Shen Ni, worshipping him, their gratitude overflowing.

"Inheriting the will of the great one, I shall become a Chaos Demon God today. The world Pangu created is destined to end in my hands," Shen Ni murmured to himself.

Then, Shen Ni's numerous eyes gazed at the Great Thousand Worlds surrounding him.

Protecting these billions of Fierce Beasts?

They were merely obstacles to him becoming a Chaos Demon God!

"To become a part of my body and witness the end of the Primordial Era is your supreme honor."

The next moment, Shen Ni activated the formations.

The entire Archaic Heavenly Dang Mountain Range was a formation, and these ten Great Thousand Worlds also formed a formation.

The formations were connected.

Everything was centered around Shen Ni.

At this moment, the Fierce Beasts within the ten Great Thousand Worlds all sensed disaster approaching.

Speaking of which, there were other beings besides Fierce Beasts in these Great Thousand Worlds.

A power of law also appeared on Shen Ni.

The Devouring Law!

This was not Shen Ni's innate law, but one he had plundered from a Fierce Beast.

Now, Shen Ni intended to devour these ten Great Thousand Worlds.

Primarily, the billions of Fierce Beasts within these Great Thousand Worlds.

As for the beings in these Great Thousand Worlds other than Fierce Beasts, Shen Ni paid them no mind.

As the formations operated, the ten Great Thousand Worlds revolved around Shen Ni.

The power of devouring began to infect these Great Thousand Worlds.

A sense of despair also grew in each of the Great Thousand Worlds.

"This..."

"Not good!"

"The Emperor is going to devour us."

"Shen Ni isn't protecting us."

"Damn it!"

Even though the Fierce Beasts in each Great Thousand World struggled desperately, it was all in vain.

They thought the Great Thousand Worlds were their protection, but now they had become prisons.

And even if they could escape from the Great Thousand Worlds, what then?

The entire Archaic Heavenly Dang Mountain Range was a formation.

Moreover, it was all under Shen Ni's watchful eye.

Escape to freedom? Was that even possible?

The fate of billions of Fierce Beasts was sealed.

Devouring billions of Fierce Beasts also had a benefit for Shen Ni: it reduced the Karma on his body.

The changes in the Archaic Heavenly Dang Mountain Range were also observed by many powerful beings outside.

Sensing that things were not good, some of the great powers even guessed Shen Ni's intentions.

Instantly, one great power after another rushed towards the Archaic Heavenly Dang Mountain Range.

"Shen Ni has gone mad."

"We cannot let Shen Ni break through to the Ninth Turn of God-Demon Body Refinement."

"Nine turns of God-Demon Body Refinement means... Chaos Demon God."

"We must stop him."

Using the sunlight, Lu Ya instantly teleported to the foot of the Archaic Heavenly Dang Mountain Range.

Gazing at the Heavenly Dang Mountain Range, Lu Ya concealed his presence.

Shen Ni's karma was decreasing, while his magic power was increasing wildly.

The number of Fierce Beasts that Shen Ni was devouring was also becoming more and more astonishing.

It would not be long before Shen Ni could break through to the Ninth Turn of God-Demon Body Refinement.

Lu Ya was also quite curious about Chaos Demon Gods.

Next, one great power after another arrived at the foot of the Heavenly Dang Mountain Range.

There was Ancestor Dragon, Yuan Feng, First Kirin, as well as Hongjun, Rahula, Ancestor Qiankun, Ancestor Yin Yang, and Ancestor Xuantian, among others.

Dozens of great powers gathered, all of them Grand Unity level.

These great powers were not only of Grand Unity level cultivation, but they had also attained the Grand Unity Dao Fruit, and each possessed an Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Hongjun and Ancestor Yin Yang, in particular, even had Innate Supreme Treasures.
