One Yin, One Yang, Echoing Each Other, Secretly Aligning with the Yin Yang Great Dao of Heaven and Earth

The northern region of the Primordial World was tense, with alarms sounding on every side.

The ashes of the Five Elements Holy Land had not yet scattered, yet the banners of the Yin Yang Divine Dynasty and the Heavenly Dao Alliance were already fluttering proudly in their place.

They had swallowed up the Five Elements' territory, but instead of immediately striking at the Qian Kun Divine Dynasty, they acted with surprising restraint.

This unusual behavior left many overlords of the Primordial World filled with suspicion.

After all, with their aggressive momentum, they should have followed up and devoured Ancestor Qian Kun in one fell swoop.

The former site of the Five Elements Holy Land had now become a secret meeting place.

Azure Heaven, Yellow Heaven, and Cyan Heaven had all arrived together, with Ancestor Yin Yang seated among them.

And to everyone's surprise, Ancestor Qian Kun had also come in person.

Ancestor Qian Kun's expression was grave, his eyes flickering with vigilance and unease.

He knew full well that the Three Heavens and Yin Yang had not erased the Five Elements through their own strength alone, but because Luohu had intervened halfway.

If not for that Demonic Nature disrupting the situation, the Five Elements would never have died so quickly.

It was precisely for this reason that he had no choice but to come, even if his heart resisted, to find out what scheme they were plotting.

"You summoned me here. What is the urgent matter?"

Ancestor Qian Kun got straight to the point, his gaze icy.

Ancestor Yin Yang, however, spoke with a hint of a smile, slowly saying, "Fellow Daoist, why be so suspicious? We only wished to discuss a great matter with you."

Qian Kun frowned and said coldly, "What great matter?"

Ancestor Yin Yang did not answer directly but instead asked, "Fellow Daoist, how do you view the current situation of the Primordial World?"

Qian Kun pondered briefly, his tone heavy: "The Three Clans are powerful; we are far from their equal. Not to mention anything else, the Ferocious Beast Clan in the west is an existence we cannot hope to match."

Though his words carried a hint of self-deprecation, they were also the truth.

In the Primordial World of today, on the surface, heroes were rising from all sides, but the ones who truly stood firm were still the victors of the previous era... the Three Innate Races!

Ancestor Dragon, Yuan Huang, and First Kirin—these three pressed down on all the newly risen overlords, making it hard for them to breathe.

Ancestor Yin Yang's gaze turned cold, but his voice carried a trace of pride: "If we had not devoted ourselves to comprehending the Great Dao in the last era, we might not have lost to them. In terms of origin and potential, how have we Innate Demon Gods ever been inferior?"

The Three Heavens nodded in succession, their eyes also flashing with arrogance.

Qian Kun heard this but sighed inwardly.

These ancestors all bore an innate pride in their bones.

In their view, the Three Clans were merely lucky to have survived until now.

However, Ancestor Yin Yang shifted his tone, his voice deep: "But the current reality is that we are indeed inferior to the Three Clans in power."

His gaze fixed on Qian Kun as he asked meaningfully, "So, if we were to unite, could we stand shoulder to shoulder with the Three Innate Races?"

Qian Kun's heart trembled.

This was a proposal he had never anticipated.

His first instinct was that this was indeed a path to survival.

After all, he knew well that if he refused, he might become the next Five Elements.

"How can I trust you?"

Qian Kun's eyes were like knives, fixed on Yin Yang and the Three Heavens, his tone low.

One of the "Three Heavens," Azure Heaven, slowly spoke: "We can swear a Heavenly Dao oath."

At these words, Qian Kun's pupils contracted.

This was not the Dharma Ending Era of later generations, where oaths were treated like child's play.

In the Primordial World of this time, if one dared to break a Heavenly Dao oath, they would surely suffer Heavenly Dao backlash and die without a burial place!

Qian Kun was silent for a long time before finally nodding, his voice low and cold: "Very well, since that's the case, we shall unite!"

In the hall, the atmosphere eased slightly, and smiles appeared on the faces of Yin Yang and the Three Heavens.

But Qian Kun suddenly asked, "There is one thing I do not understand. Since you can unite with me today, why did you not form an alliance with the Five Elements back then? Why did you have to destroy him instead?"

Ancestor Yin Yang smiled faintly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "If we had allied with the Five Elements back then, and then added you, Fellow Daoist, would you have agreed?"

Qian Kun's heart jolted, and he fell into silence.

The answer was already self-evident... no!

At this moment, he finally fully understood the ruthlessness of Yin Yang and the Three Heavens.

Every step they took was carefully calculated.

The death of the Five Elements was merely a necessary piece to be sacrificed in their chess game.

Qian Kun was well aware that if Ancestor Yin Yang and the Three Heavens had come to invite him and Five Elements to form an alliance before Five Elements died, he would never have agreed.

Back then, the forces of the Eastern and Northern Regions were still balanced, and neither side was willing to bow their heads.

But now, Five Elements had fallen, the Five Elements Holy Land had been reduced to ashes, and only the Qian Kun Divine Dynasty remained in the Northern Region.

Under these circumstances, he had no room to refuse. If he didn't agree, he would only follow in Five Elements' footsteps.

Within the secret meeting, Qian Kun's tone was heavy as he asked, "I wonder, who is our next target?"

Ancestor Yin Yang's gaze flickered slightly, but before he could speak, Azure Heaven replied coldly, "The Phoenix Clan."

Qian Kun raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise in his eyes. "The Phoenix Clan? Don't forget, they not only have Yuan Huang, but also the man standing by her side... Long Zang. He's no ordinary figure."

His words were not empty talk.

In Qian Kun's eyes, Long Zang's presence was even more troublesome than Yuan Huang's.

That faint, elusive aura of terror reminded him of the most formidable beings of the ancient era.

Ancestor Yin Yang, however, was unperturbed and said calmly, "Since the three clans stood side by side, the Phoenix Clan has had the shallowest foundation. Logically, they should have shown their fangs long ago, yet until now, they have made no move at all."

Qian Kun fell silent.

The beings of the Primordial World had long speculated that the Phoenix Clan had fought a brutal war against the beasts in the Southern Region during the previous era and had been severely wounded, never fully recovering.

That explained their low profile and hibernation.

Gradually, this speculation became accepted as common knowledge, and everyone assumed the Phoenix Clan had weakened.

But Qian Kun knew deep down: a starved camel is still bigger than a horse.

No matter how silent the Phoenix became, they were not a force to be underestimated by ordinary powers.

Even with the Three Heavens, Ancestor Yin Yang, and himself combined, victory was not necessarily guaranteed.

Ancestor Yin Yang, however, had his own plan. "We'll strike a million years from now. That's enough time for us to build our strength. When the time comes, it will be the moment of the Phoenix Clan's destruction."

Qian Kun stared at them, silent for a moment, then finally nodded. "If that's the case, then a million years from now, the target... the Phoenix Clan!"

Azure Heaven replied coldly, "Long Zang will be dealt with by us."

Qian Kun's heart stirred slightly, but he raised no objection. If the Three Heavens were willing to step forward, that was naturally for the best.

Meanwhile, in the Phoenix Clan's Lesser World.

Long Zang sat cross-legged in Yuan Huang's bedchamber, his will sinking into the Lesser World within his own body.

Endless blood essence of Gods and Devils was being refined by him, impurities stripped away, leaving only the purest Dao Principles and life essence, all merging into the Lesser World.

Boom!

The Lesser World shook violently, heaven and earth expanding wildly.

Laws emerged like falling rain, time, space, and causality intertwining like threads, bringing this world truly to life.

Long Zang's gaze was solemn. This was his fallback, the foundation for his comprehension of all Daos.

He had no Primordial Spirit, making it extremely difficult to touch the Great Dao through himself alone.

But the Lesser World could perform this deduction for him.

The only flaw was that it still contained no living beings.

Suddenly, he looked up toward the sky.

There, within the suspended golden Great Sun, a massive golden cocoon lay dormant, never waking, blazing with fierce True Sun Fire.

Within it, a graceful figure could faintly be seen, with what seemed like wings spreading behind her.

And on the other side, upon the Taiyin Bright Moon, a white cocoon sat quietly, absorbing the Divine Power of Taiyin.

One yang, one yin, echoing each other, subtly aligning with the Yin Yang Great Dao of heaven and earth.

Long Zang's heart trembled, and he murmured softly, "The form of an angel?"
