Great God Pangu suppressed the remains of some of the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods beneath the Ancestral Vein Mount Sumeru in the west to prevent them from wreaking havoc in the Primordial World.
A small portion of the unsealed remains of the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods was transformed into the Fierce Beast Clan under the influence of their resentment, becoming a scourge upon the Primordial World.
If the corpses and remains of these Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods beneath Mount Sumeru had not been suppressed by Great God Pangu, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
As for the four divine iron pieces suppressing these remains of the Chaos Demon Gods, their origins were extraordinary as well.
When Great God Pangu split open the heavens and earth, he used the Chaos Supreme Treasure Sky-Opening Axe to open the heavens and the Chaos Supreme Treasure Earth-Splitting Chisel to split the earth.
After Great God Pangu fought the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods, the Chaos Supreme Treasure Earth-Splitting Chisel shattered and split into four pieces. They were the four divine iron pieces now suppressing the remains of the Chaos Demon Gods.
"Pangu, when you put it that way, you really did me a great favor!"
Ancestor Luohu looked at the remains of the Chaos Demon Gods suppressed by the four divine iron pieces, unable to keep from feeling delighted.
After all, without the suppression of the four divine iron pieces, those remains of the Chaos Demon Gods might already have transformed into fiends and gone rampaging everywhere.
Now that these remains of the Chaos Demon Gods were obediently suppressed here, it saved him some effort and allowed him to refine them without worry.
Ancestor Luohu formed hand seals. Using Mount Sumeru, the Ancestral Vein of the west, he mobilized the power of all the spiritual veins in the Western Primordial Era, using the power of the entire region's spiritual veins as fire to refine the remains of the Chaos Demon Gods.
He also used the God-Slaying Spear, a vicious and baleful treasure, to mobilize the four great sinister energies of the Primordial World: baleful energy, ferocity, death energy, and resentment.
The four great sinister energies became flames, refining the four divine iron pieces.
Ancestor Luohu wanted both the remains of the Chaos Demon Gods and the four divine iron pieces!
As Ancestor Luohu refined the remains of the Chaos Demon Gods and the four divine iron pieces, the entire Western Primordial Era transformed into a furnace of heaven and earth, becoming the weapon-refining furnace in which Ancestor Luohu forged divine weapons.
First, the Pangu Seal and the remains of the Chaos Demon Gods had emerged. Then Ancestor Luohu had used the Western Primordial Era as a furnace to refine a supreme treasure.
The resulting phenomena of heaven and earth shook the entire Primordial World.
Ancestor Dragon of the East Sea Dragon Palace, Yuanfeng of Phoenix Perch Mountain, and First Qilin of Qilin Hall were all shocked by the phenomena.
Their instincts told them that an unparalleled supreme treasure was emerging in the Western Primordial Era. If they could obtain it, they could easily suppress the other two clans.
Following the orders of the three—Ancestor Dragon, Yuanfeng, and First Qilin—their scouts immediately headed to the Western Primordial Era to investigate.
The armies of the three clans also began preparing for battle with all their might, ready to set out for the Western Primordial Era and seize the supreme treasure.
Ancestor Luohu had never considered concealing the disturbance. What he wanted was to lure everyone else to the Western Primordial Era and make these ants stepping stones on his path to proving the Dao.
Phoenix Perch Mountain...
Within Yuanfeng's Daoist temple, Yuanfeng stopped meditating.
The First Elder, Phoenix Celestial Maiden Yuan Huang, and the Second Elder, Mystic Sky Fire Phoenix Jin Ning, stood obediently below, not daring to speak.
"You thought I truly didn't know what you had done?"
"You don't need to pretend to arrange people to search for Bai Chen anymore. I know Bai Chen is on Buzhou Mountain, with Nuwa. I also know that Bai Chen followed Nuwa there of his own accord."
Yuanfeng was a Half-step Dao Proving cultivator. How could the matter of Bai Chen following Nuwa away from Phoenix Perch Mountain have escaped her notice?
If she had not tacitly allowed Bai Chen to leave Phoenix Perch Mountain, how could Nuwa's meager strength have taken him away?
Yuanfeng had tacitly permitted Nuwa to take Bai Chen away in order to stabilize the army's morale.
Bai Chen often spread remarks unfavorable to the Phoenix Clan, such as saying that they should not go to war with the Dragon Clan and Qilin Clan. This had affected the Phoenix Clan's morale.
Thus, Yuanfeng had silently accepted Bai Chen's departure with Nuwa. After she killed Ancestor Dragon and First Qilin and suppressed the Dragon Clan and Qilin Clan, she would bring Bai Chen back.
She would prove to that big Fat Cat that everything it had said was merely cowardly nonsense.
"Jin Ning, when we go to the Western Primordial Era, you will remain in Phoenix Perch Mountain and guard the ancestral grounds of my Phoenix Clan."
After assigning the Second Elder, Mystic Sky Fire Phoenix, her task, Yuanfeng indicated that she should withdraw first.
After Jin Ning bowed and left, Yuanfeng looked at the First Elder, Phoenix Celestial Maiden Yuan Huang, and said:
"Little Sister, this trip to the Western Primordial Era may well be the battle that determines the victor among the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans."
"When the time comes, I will fight Ancestor Dragon and First Qilin with all my strength. The Phoenix Clan's army will be under your command."
That was right—the Phoenix Clan's clan leader Yuanfeng and its First Elder, Phoenix Celestial Maiden Yuan Huang, were sisters!
Yuanfeng knew that during this great battle in the Western Primordial Era, she would have no time to command the Phoenix Clan's army. Only by entrusting this extremely important task to Phoenix Celestial Maiden Yuan Huang could she put her mind at ease.
"Elder Sister, rest assured. Yuan Huang certainly won't leave you with any worries or affect you."
Phoenix Celestial Maiden Yuan Huang gave Yuanfeng her assurance. As the Phoenix Clan's First Elder, she naturally knew how important this battle was!
"Yuan Huang, I have already contacted Ancestor Dragon. We have both sworn a great oath and settled on the plan for the Dragon and Phoenix Clans to attack the Qilin Clan first. Even so, you must still guard against the Dragon Clan."
That was right. Yuanfeng and Ancestor Dragon planned to eliminate the Qilin Clan first.
The Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans each had their strengths. The Dragon Clan had powerful physical bodies, the Phoenix Clan had powerful Dao arts and divine abilities, while the Qilin Clan's advantage was its reproductive ability.
Neither the Dragon Clan nor the Phoenix Clan had as many troops as the Qilin Clan.
If the Dragon and Phoenix Clans fought each other first, the Qilin Clan would inevitably gain the advantage.
That was why the Dragon and Phoenix Clans planned to deal with the Qilin Clan first before deciding the victor between themselves!
On Buzhou Mountain, Bai Chen, who had been lying on Nuwa's lap asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.
Although Bai Chen was on Buzhou Mountain, he was still startled by such a huge disturbance in the Western Primordial Era.
"It seems Ancestor Luohu has opened the Pangu Seal and begun refining that supreme treasure."
With such a huge disturbance in the Western Primordial Era, Bai Chen knew without thinking that Ancestor Luohu was refining the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and the Zhu Xian Array Diagram.
Bai Chen suddenly shook his body, sending several strands of fur flying out and transforming into several clones.
"Go find Yuanfeng."
Bai Chen and Yuanfeng were friends. Even though he knew that the Calamity Qi had muddled Yuanfeng's mind and that she would not listen to him, he still wanted to save her.
Bai Chen's relationship with Yuanfeng was not as simple as it appeared, because Yuanfeng had once saved his life.
Back then, First Qilin had used force to suppress the myriad beast races. Bai Chen, whose Daoist temple was on Mount Huo, had also suffered from the disaster.
If not for Yuanfeng's rescue, Bai Chen would certainly have become one of the Qilin Clan's cannon fodder, just like the other Innate Divine Beasts.
Afterward, when Bai Chen went to Phoenix Perch Mountain, he repeatedly advised Yuanfeng, hoping to help her escape the Tribulation.
But the Calamity Qi and her desire to prove the Dao had muddled Yuanfeng's mind, and she refused to listen.
Now that the decisive battle between the three clans was approaching, Bai Chen still decided to send clones to save her.
"We obey, True Body!"
After Bai Chen's many clones bowed to him, they left Nuwa's Daoist temple and headed for Phoenix Perch Mountain.
Chapter 9: Fuxi, Long Hair, Short Sight!
Nuwa rubbed Bai Chen's round little head and asked:
"Little White, who was that Ancestor Luohu you were muttering about just now? And what are the Pangu Seal and the supreme treasure he is refining?"
Nuwa had also noticed the anomaly in the Western Primordial Era. Seeing that Bai Chen seemed to know what was happening, she naturally had to ask.
After all, she was curious about what had happened in the Western Primordial Era to cause such a huge disturbance.
"There's an almighty expert named Ancestor Luohu at the Ancestral Vein Mount Sumeru in the Western Primordial Era. He's currently refining a supreme treasure."
"Ancestor Luohu set this up as bait to lure the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans into taking it. He intends to blood-refine the three clans and thereby prove the supreme Devil Dao and condense the Primordial Fruit Status."
Bai Chen briefly explained what he knew to Nuwa.
"Little White, are you sleep-talking?"
Nuwa stroked Bai Chen's fur, feeling that his joke was not funny at all.
How powerful were the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans? Ancestor Dragon, Yuanfeng, and First Qilin were the three great overlords of the Primordial World. How powerful would someone have to be to deal with the three of them?
If the Ancestor Luohu in Bai Chen's words truly possessed such strength, why had he been an unknown nobody?
Bai Chen climbed onto Nuwa's shoulder, took out a Huai Wood Fruit, and munched on it as he said:
"Nuwa, you don't really think that Ancestor Dragon, Yuanfeng, and First Qilin are the strongest beings in the Primordial World right now, do you?"
Nuwa was stunned by the question. Wasn't that the case?
The three of them were all Half-step Dao Proving experts who held the fortune of the myriad races in their hands. Could there really be anyone stronger?
Bai Chen saw what Nuwa was thinking and said:
"Although those three—Yuanfeng and the others—are powerful, it's still hard to say whether they even rank among the top thirty in the Primordial World."
Nuwa was shocked when she heard this. "How is that possible?"
Nuwa could not believe Bai Chen. What he said was too frightening.
The three of them were all Half-step Dao Proving experts. If Bai Chen was telling the truth, wouldn't there be dozens of Half-step Dao Proving experts in the Primordial World?
"(ˉ▽￣~) Tsk~~"
Seeing how ignorant Nuwa was, Bai Chen revealed a disdainful expression and continued:
"Nuwa, you don't really think that the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods truly all died, do you?"
Nuwa immediately understood after Bai Chen asked the question:
"Little White, you mean that many of the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods whom Great God Pangu killed when he split open the heavens and earth didn't truly die."
"And that Ancestor Luohu was transformed from a Chaos Demon God, meaning there are many other such existences in the Primordial World."
Nuwa felt that if Bai Chen was truly right, it was simply terrifying.
After all, the former bodies of the Chaos Demon Gods had all possessed the Primordial Fruit Status. Even if they had been grievously wounded and their Primordial Unity Dao Fruits destroyed, their strength would still be terrifying.
The more Nuwa thought about it, the more frightening it seemed. This could not be true. That Big Lazy Cat must be trying to scare her.
"Correct!"
"But there's no reward!"
According to what Bai Chen knew, many of the Chaos Demon Gods had not truly died back then. Their Primordial Spirits and True Spirits had escaped.
