Even Gaining Benefits Depends on the Situation

Yun Miao: "The Dragon-Han Calamity just passed like that? Why didn't you take part? That was a golden opportunity to scoop up benefits!"

Tu Shan Ya Ya: "Miao Miao, you're only thinking about grabbing benefits. What if you jump into the calamity and something goes wrong?"

Qian Renxue: "I believe in Brother Liu Feng's strength—there's no problem at all!"

Liu Feng: "Little Xue, aren't you overestimating me? I haven't even become an immortal yet."

Liu Feng: "There really are plenty of benefits, not to mention anything else—selling the corpses of the three races' living beings to the Card Draw Group could exchange for a ton of Points. But first, you need to have the life to claim them. Miao Miao, have you forgotten that the Dragon-Han Calamity and the War of Gods and Devils are practically back-to-back events? No, or rather, the Dragon-Han Calamity already contains the War of Gods and Devils within it. Perhaps right now, Devil Ancestor Rahula and Dao Ancestor Hong Jun are already locked in battle in the West!

With my current strength, if I tried to pick up scraps, I'd probably just be delivering myself on a platter!"

Liu Feng showed no embarrassment at all. No matter how weak his strength was, in the Card Draw Group, he was still a top-tier existence—that was the advantage of a high-level world.

Wang Ye: "That's true. These two great calamities are happening one after the other. What if the Big Shot sticks his nose in and something goes wrong? Weren't we just saying to stay steady and not act recklessly? Why are you now urging the Big Shot to grab benefits, Admin? What exactly are you plotting?!"

Lin Fengjiao: "The terror of a calamity lies in the fact that once you enter it, it's extremely hard to extricate yourself. Just look at the current state of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin—they're utterly crippled, abandoned by the Heavenly Dao, with no hope of recovery ever again!"

Zhang Sanfeng: "And then there's the upcoming War of Gods and Devils. After the Devil Ancestor's defeat, there won't be any chance for the villains either. It's best not to provoke such a calamity!"

Ying Zheng: "Indeed. Though I didn't witness the three races' battle firsthand, it must have been incredibly brutal. Otherwise, they wouldn't have sworn a Heavenly Dao oath and now can only repay Karma."

Liu Feng: "So this is the benefit of Merit. In the future, we should do more good deeds—that way, at critical moments, it can save your life!"

Yun Miao: "Of course I know the calamity is terrifying, but have you all forgotten that Brother Liu has heaven-defying luck? With luck like that, even if he runs into danger, he'll probably turn misfortune into fortune!"

Yun Miao naturally wouldn't let Liu Feng fall into danger.

Yun Miao: "Brother Liu's luck is so good that nothing will happen to him. And because of that luck, fishing in troubled waters during the calamity will let him get even more good stuff!

Take Dao Ancestor Hong Jun, for example—after fighting Rahula, he obtained the Taiji Diagram, the Pangu Banner, the Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords, and other supreme treasures! He's practically a scavenging maniac!"

Tsunade: "Right, how could I forget that the Big Shot's Fortune is heaven-defying? But can heaven-defying Fortune really still be useful in a calamity?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya: "That's hard to say. Maybe it should be useful?"

Qian Renxue: "It's definitely useful! Brother Liu Feng's luck is invincible!"

Liu Feng: "Ahem, that's hard to say. But Miao Miao, you've got one thing wrong. Rather than saying Dao Ancestor Hong Jun scavenged the Taiji Diagram, Pangu Banner, Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords, and other treasures, it's more accurate to say he schemed to get them from Ancestor Qiankun and the others, plus his own strength and the Heavenly Dao's help.

You could say those artifacts already had owners—they were destined to belong to Dao Ancestor Hong Jun's disciples. The Dao Ancestor is also the Heavenly Dao's chosen spokesperson. As for me, I've got nothing going for me except a bit of Fortune. I can't compare to the Dao Ancestor!"

Wang Ye: "Big Shot, do you mean the War of Gods and Devils itself is a kind of behind-the-scenes manipulation?"

Liu Feng: "Isn't it? If Dao Ancestor Hong Jun and Devil Ancestor Rahula are fighting in the West right now, he probably isn't going all out. Maybe he's just going through the motions!"

Hong Jun: "Your guess is spot on. This poor Daoist is indeed going through the motions."

At this moment in the West, Rahula also glimpsed Heaven's Secrets. The War of Gods and Devils could not be delayed.

Facing Hong Jun, Ancestor Qiankun, and the others, he wasted no words and directly deployed the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!

Instantly, the Western sky turned gloomy, with fierce winds howling, sand and stones flying, and black smoke billowing.

A primordial formation diagram emerged beneath Rahula's feet, followed by four oddly shaped long swords rising up. Their blades were like jade yet not jade, like stone yet not stone—these were the four primordial killing swords: Slaughter, Kill, Trap, and Ruin.

The four swords hung in the four directions, instantly enveloping the Western lands. Endless killing intent permeated the sword bodies, and the four figures of Hong Jun within the formation immediately felt that terrifying murderous aura.

"Hong Jun, old man! Qiankun, old man! Yin Yang, old man! Chaos, old man! What do you think of my Immortal Slaughtering Formation?" Seeing the four's expressions shift, Rahula asked smugly.

None of the four spoke, each pondering a way to break the formation.

After a moment, Hong Jun spoke: "Three fellow Daoists, this formation seethes with killing intent. The four immortal swords within each guard a gate—those must be the formation's eyes.

The four of us will each break one gate. What say you?"

The three replied in unison: "Agreed!"

Immediately, Ancestor Yin Yang took out the Taiji Diagram and waved it lightly. A golden bridge appeared, and in the blink of an eye, he dashed to one gate.

Ancestor Qiankun placed the Qiankun Cauldron atop his head, while Chaos Daoist sacrificed the Pangu Banner to block the formation's sword qi, charging together toward the other two gates.

Hong Jun also channeled his Mana and rushed straight for the final gate.

The several figures charged into the formation, only to see Rahula seated atop the formation diagram, driving the four swords—Slaughter, Kill, Trap, and Ruin.

The killing intent within the formation surged instantly. The four swords shot out dense sword qi like raindrops, raining down on them.

This assault seemed hard to withstand, but Rahula was, after all, facing four Primordial Gods and Devils. Moreover, his current cultivation could not fully unleash the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation's complete power, and Hong Jun, Ancestor Qiankun, and the others were no pushovers.

Not to mention that each of them wielded a Primordial Supreme Treasure. Even against the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, they showed no fear.

Though these Primordial Supreme Treasures were not fully refined, they still matched Rahula blow for blow in battle, easily blocking the formation's attacks.

Just as they were about to reach the formation's core, Rahula suddenly frowned and pulled out the God-Slaying Spear.

The four immediately sensed something wrong. An inexplicable dread crept into their hearts, growing stronger by the moment.

What made this oppressive feeling even more troublesome was that the God-Slaying Spear's attacks were omnipresent. No matter how the four defended, the oppressive atmosphere forced them to reveal openings, and the moment a gap appeared, the spear would strike instantly.

Under these circumstances, even the Primordial Gods and Devils found it hard to split their focus and respond.

After several exchanges, the four clearly showed signs of decline.

Watching Rahula's aura grow stronger, Ancestor Yin Yang gritted his teeth and was about to burn his Origin again to break free, when suddenly a familiar trace of Time Law rippled around him.

It turned out that Chaos Daoist had used a strategy of "besieging Wei to rescue Zhao," directly attacking Rahula to save Ancestor Yin Yang.

But Rahula paid it no mind: "Hah! Such petty tricks dare to show off before me?"

As his words fell, the battle erupted once more.

The other two immediately closed in, fending off the enemy while also resisting the Immortal Slaughtering Formation's baleful qi, lest it seep into them and cause damage.
