The West Is In Danger

Cave Mansion, within the cultivation chamber.

Luo Qing smiled, looking at the pile of high-grade Immortal Artifact refining materials before him, and nodded with satisfaction.

While the Primordial Era wasn't exactly overflowing with Spiritual Treasures and treasured artifacts, high-quality refining materials were quite abundant.

The Heavenly Gods and True Gods of Hundred Gods Mountain were considerably wealthier than the Five Elements tribesmen.

In addition to the refining materials for the nearly thirty fourth-tier Immortal Artifacts he had taken on, Luo Qing estimated that the remaining surplus materials could be used to forge another twenty Immortal Artifacts without issue.

Luo Qing's extensive Immortal Artifact forging in Hundred Gods Mountain wasn't truly for the purpose of honing his cultivation.

Instead, he intended to use it to find a way to counter the Hun Xing Mountain Lord.

In terms of cultivation, there was simply no way; even if Luo Qing eventually became a Golden Immortal, he would still be far from a match for Hun Xing.

Thus, Luo Qing's only leverage lay in Artifact Forging.

"First, I need to find a way to transfer the aura assimilation from the Flame Fire Pearl away from me!"

A sharp glint flashed in Luo Qing's eyes.

He had only refined the Flame Fire Pearl for a hundred years, so the effects weren't obvious yet.

However, Luo Qing had already sensed signs of the Flame Fire Pearl assimilating his aura.

Luo Qing dared not delay any longer; it was best to resolve this ticking time bomb as soon as possible.

As for a method! Luo Qing had already thought of one.

A rather ancient Immortal Artifact was brought out by Luo Qing.

"White Flame Spirit Pearl!"

It was a special Immortal Artifact refined using the Divine Body and Nascent Soul of the Innate God, Bai Yan.

This Spirit Pearl could be said to contain the entirety of a fire deity.

Ever since Luo Qing learned that he, along with Hun Xing's other four disciples, belonged to the five elements, Luo Qing knew that Hun Xing was likely interested in his fire origin.

By using the fire origin within the White Flame Spirit Pearl, he could perform a switcheroo, transferring the assimilation of the Flame Fire Pearl to the White Flame Spirit Pearl.

Then, he would use the aura of the slowly assimilating White Flame Spirit Pearl to conceal himself, achieving the goal of deceiving the heavens and crossing the sea.

Furthermore, as Luo Qing looked at the White Flame Spirit Pearl spinning in his hand, a malicious thought flashed through his mind.

This plan, in the end, was merely a temporary fix, a way to drink poison to quench thirst, and could not help Luo Qing escape entirely.

The best course of action would naturally be to assassinate the Hun Xing Mountain Lord, or at the very least, heavily injure him. Only then would Luo Qing have a chance to escape.

And to secretly ambush Hun Xing, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, the ultimate method still rested on this White Flame Spirit Pearl.

With a rough plan in mind, Luo Qing waved his hand and began forging Immortal Artifacts.

A hundred years later, nearly thirty fourth-tier Immortal Artifacts were delivered by Luo Qing to the individuals who had commissioned them.

After a grand banquet hosted by dozens of gods, Luo Qing publicly announced that he would be forging Immortal Artifacts in Hundred Gods Mountain every five hundred years from then on.

He asked the various gods to spread the word and collect as many refining materials as possible.

When the Hun Xing Mountain Lord learned of Luo Qing's frequent forging activities, he didn't even frown.

As long as Luo Qing didn't delay his own cultivation progress, the Hun Xing Mountain Lord didn't care what Luo Qing did.

Years passed one by one. Luo Qing, under the alias of the True God "Chi Lingzi," became widely renowned as a master artifact forger within Hundred Gods Mountain.

Many True Gods, and even Mystic Gods, began contemplating whether they should gather some refining materials and have Luo Qing forge a handy Magic Treasure for them.

Even gods who possessed Innate Treasures couldn't help but feel tempted.

While treasured artifacts were good, they might not always be satisfactory to use.

Just as Luo Qing was desperately seeking a way to save himself within Hundred Gods Mountain, the Fierce Beast army, having completely defeated the gods of Buzhou Mountain, had, after a vast march of a thousand years, led by Shen Ni, the Beast Emperor, along with the other three Beast Emperors and hundreds of millions of Fierce Beasts, advanced from the central region of the Primordial Era to the western continent of the Primordial Era.

Following Shen Ni's previous strategy, they would first destroy the gods of Buzhou Mountain, then turn from west to south and east, annihilating the four Great Creation Gods along the way.

"Chaos, Ghost Mother, Giant Spirit, the three of you, each lead a contingent of Grand Unity and Grand Unity Fierce Beasts.

Advance ahead and surround Wind Spirit Mountain. Under no circumstances are you to let the Wind Spirit Clan escape! I will personally lead the main army shortly. Once the beast tide arrives, Wind Spirit Mountain will be flattened!"

"Understood!"

In the battle against the gods of Buzhou Mountain, Shen Ni, wielding the Innate Supreme Treasure, the God-Slaying Spear, killed over a dozen Grand Unity Golden Immortals, achieving unparalleled prestige.

Even the three Beast Emperors of Chaos were filled with admiration for Shen Ni.

The three Beast Emperors of Chaos took their orders and departed. Shen Ni looked towards the western continent of the Primordial Era, a blood-red murderous aura flashing in his eyes.

"Kill! All who are not of my Fierce Beast clan shall perish!"

His voice, extremely cold and filled with killing intent, resounded through the heavens.

"Roar!" "Kill!"

With a roar from hundreds of millions of beasts, they immediately entered the Western Continent and charged towards Wind Spirit Mountain.

Whether they were newly born Acquired Beings or noble Innate Gods they encountered along the way, all were engulfed by the beast tide.

In the western part of the central Western Continent of the Primordial Era, within a majestic mountain range stretching for millions of miles.

Wind Spirit Mountain, the ancestral land of the Wind Spirit Tiger Clan, one of the four major races born from the creation of the heavens and earth.

The moment hundreds of millions of beasts entered the Western Continent, a malevolent aura enveloped the west of the Primordial Era, alarming over a dozen Grand Unity Golden Immortals in the Wind Spirit Tiger Clan.

The patriarch of the Wind Spirit Tiger Clan was a Wind Spirit Tiger God, born from a top-tier Innate Sacred Being, with a cultivation at the peak of Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

The Wind Spirit Ancestor Tiger roared, "The Fierce Beast Clan is attacking! Sound the Sky-Shaking Drum, summon all Wind Spirits to Wind Spirit Mountain, and prepare for battle!"

Instantly, all named and unnamed powers across the Western Continent were alerted.

The Fierce Beast Clan was powerful and had already invaded the Western Continent. Regardless of willingness, this battle was unavoidable.

The Wind Spirit Tiger Clan was the uncrowned king of the Western Continent. Countless gods began to gather at Wind Spirit Mountain, preparing to resist the beast tide together.

Meanwhile, Ancestor Hongjun, who had already descended from Jade Capital Mountain and had been traveling the Primordial Era for thousands of years, looked westward with a frown.

"The Zhou Mountain Divine Race is already destroyed. If the Ling Clan also falls, the entire Primordial Era will be in peril!"

"Daoist Diandao, what do you think?"

Ancestor Hongjun asked a cultivator at the peak of Grand Luo Golden Immortal opposite him.

"Daoist Hongjun, you speak the truth. The Primordial Era must not perish, and the Fierce Beast Clan must be annihilated!"

The mighty being addressed as Daoist Diandao by Ancestor Hongjun also faced the west and said solemnly.

"Good!"

Ancestor Diandao was persuaded, and Ancestor Hongjun smiled.

"However, with just you and me, how can we be a match for the Fierce Beast Clan?"

"Don't worry, Daoist Diandao. I have already contacted Yin Yang, Qian Kun, and Cang Qiong. They have all agreed to help.

Furthermore, the Fierce Beast Clan is clearly aiming to destroy the four races born from the creation of the heavens and earth.

If the Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, and Kirin Clan do not wish to face the Fierce Beast tide alone, they will have to join the fight now."

Ever since the great defeat of the Zhou Mountain Divine Race, Ancestor Hongjun had been traveling everywhere, uniting the four directions.

The battle between the Fierce Beasts and the Ling Clan was the beginning of an opportunity for the final decisive battle.

They could not allow the Fierce Beasts to attack region by region, or the gods and myriad races of the Primordial Era would be in danger.

The Primordial Sea had not yet been divided into the Four Seas. It was collectively known as the Azure Sea.

Gui Xu, the Azure Sea, was the ancestral source of the Primordial Era's water and the core ancestral land of the Dragon Clan.

Ancestor Dragon, already at the peak of Grand Luo Golden Immortal, raised its ten-thousand-zhang dragon head from the depths of Gui Xu, its eyes coldly fixed on the west.

"The Fierce Beast Clan is rampant. Destroying the gods of Zhou Mountain is not enough; they wish to eliminate our four races born from the creation of the heavens and earth. They are dreaming.

Issue an order: Grand Luo and Taiyi within the clan are to prepare to go out and exterminate the Fierce Beasts with me."

Adjacent to the western part of the Primordial Southern Domain, within the core Danfeng Mountain of the endless volcanic ancestral veins stretching for tens of millions of miles.

Ancestor Phoenix and Ancestor Huang, two Innate Sacred Beings, let out cries and rushed out from the ten-thousand-zhang volcano.

"The avian race, Grand Luo and Taiyi, follow us to battle in the west and annihilate the Fierce Beasts."

To the east of Zhou Mountain, in the endless Kirin Mountain Range, all beasts roared in unison at this moment.

Grand Luo Golden Immortals and Taiyi Divine Beasts flew out from the depths of the Kirin Mountain Range towards the Western Continent of the Primordial Era.

Beneath Mount Sumeru in the west, in a dark and deep space, a figure in black robes emerged from the shadows.

"The Fierce Beast Clan dares to be so rampant. I, Luohu, will face Shen Ni and see what capabilities he possesses!"

Most of the powerful cultivators in the Primordial Era were heading west. A great battle that would decide the fate of the Fierce Beasts and the myriad races of the Primordial Divine Race was about to begin.

Meanwhile, within Hundred Gods Mountain, Luo Qing, who had been in seclusion for five hundred years, emerged once more.

The moment Luo Qing appeared on Hundred Gods Mountain, a flood of Immortal Artifact orders poured in.
