Xuanyuan's Death?

After successfully intimidating everyone, Xuanyuan reached out to grab the Innate Gourd Vine.

The sight immediately jolted the stunned crowd back to their senses.

"Not good! He's going to uproot the entire Innate Gourd Vine!"

"Quick, stop him!"

The crowd roared in fury. Led by many powerful Quasi-Saints, including Sanqing, Jieyin, Zhunti, Dijun, and Donghuang Taiyi, they all attacked Xuanyuan.

In an instant, countless divine abilities and secret arts filled the sky.

The spectacle was immense!

Fuxi, Nuwa, Zhen Yuanzi, and Hong Yun flashed away, instantly retreating hundreds of miles.

"Madness! These people have all gone mad!"

Zhen Yuanzi's eyes were wide with shock.

A wave of lingering fear washed over him.

Although he had long been a Quasi-Saint, the sheer density of the attacks still made his scalp tingle.

"If you don't go mad, you won't survive!"

Hong Yun said calmly.

He seemed far more composed.

Gazing at the dense, terrifying attacks a hundred miles away, he said mildly, "Everyone's guarded this place for over a thousand years. Just when it was finally time to reap the rewards, Xuanyuan swooped in and took everything. We didn't even get a single leaf. How could they not go mad?"

"Hong Yun is right!"

Fuxi nodded repeatedly in agreement. "The only one to blame is Xuanyuan for being so overbearing. The Innate Gourd Vine clearly bore seven innate gourds. With his strength, he could have claimed one or two and no one would have said a word. But he had to be greedy and take them all, so of course he'd provoke everyone's fury!"

As he spoke, Fuxi instinctively asked, "Little sister, don't you agree?"

"Little sister?"

Fuxi asked several times but got no answer. He turned to look at Nuwa and saw her gazing anxiously toward the battlefield a hundred miles away. He couldn't help frowning.

That Xuanyuan was nothing but trouble!

At the Innate Gourd Vine.

Facing the terrifying attacks raining down from all sides, Xuanyuan's lips curled slightly. He didn't panic in the least.

The moment he reached for the Innate Gourd Vine, he had immediately used the power of the Space Law to transfer the entire vine, along with the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil beneath it, into the Chaos Bead.

As a Chaos Spiritual Treasure, the Chaos Bead could not be detected by anyone once something entered it—not even Heaven's Way or Hongjun.

In the next instant, countless divine abilities and secret arts swept over him.

A series of thunderous booms erupted, like waves crashing against the shore, as if heaven and earth were collapsing.

Hundreds of yards were blasted off the mountain peak. Amidst billowing clouds of dust, countless rocks flew in every direction.

Under such a devastating barrage, even a Quasi-Saint at the mid or late stage would have been blasted to nothing if they remained there, let alone Xuanyuan, who was only at the early stage.

After all, this was the strongest attack unleashed by countless powerful figures working together.

Among them were more than ten Quasi-Saint powerhouses, including Sanqing, Jieyin, Zhunti, Dijun, Donghuang Taiyi, Kunpeng, and Minghe.

The rest were at least Daluo Golden Immortals.

Anyone who hadn't reached the Daluo Golden Immortal realm wasn't even qualified to stand there.

Moreover, figures like Sanqing and Donghuang Taiyi had also brought out their strongest treasures.

The Donghuang Bell and the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda were both Supreme Grade Innate Supreme Treasures.

The River Diagram and Luo Book, the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, and the Six Roots Pure Bamboo were all Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, each extraordinarily powerful.

"Hahaha! That savage Xuanyuan is surely dead!"

Donghuang Taiyi laughed so hard that tears nearly sprang from his eyes. His excitement was plain to see.

Whether he obtained an innate gourd or not didn't matter to him in the slightest.

He already had the Chaos Bell, a Supreme Grade Innate Supreme Treasure that could both attack and defend.

Another Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure wouldn't make any real difference to him.

What he cared about more was Xuanyuan himself.

Ever since Xuanyuan had first entered Zixiao Palace, he had been like a nightmare, tormenting Donghuang Taiyi without end.

As the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan, when had Donghuang Taiyi ever suffered such humiliation?

He had long wanted to kill Xuanyuan.

Unfortunately, he hadn't been strong enough.

Every time he thought he had surpassed Xuanyuan and couldn't resist taking revenge, Xuanyuan had slapped him down again.

Now that Xuanyuan was under attack by the entire crowd, Donghuang Taiyi was the most excited of them all.

"Exactly! He's finished!"

Yuanshi laughed heartily as well. Like Donghuang Taiyi, he was an extremely proud man.

After suffering one setback after another at Xuanyuan's hands, he had long since come to hate him to the bone.

"Good riddance. Leaving him alive would only cause trouble!"

Kunpeng chimed in.

He had a deep grudge against Xuanyuan too.

He had studied the Demon Clan Script for countless years, even stooping to serve Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi, all for the immense merit that came with deciphering it.

Yet Xuanyuan had interfered, allowing an obscure nobody like the Six-Eared Macaque to beat him to it.

Everyone knew that in the Primordial World, blocking someone's opportunity was a grave enmity.

And this was an enormous opportunity involving countless merits bestowed by Heaven's Way.

Like Donghuang Taiyi and Yuanshi, Kunpeng's hatred for Xuanyuan ran deep.

"It's just a pity about those seven innate gourds," Jieyin said mournfully.

He also had a grudge against Xuanyuan, but unlike Yuanshi, Donghuang Taiyi, and Kunpeng, he felt more regret for the seven innate gourds.

"That's right. Each one could have become a Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. It's a real shame to see them destroyed like this!"

Zhunti shook his head with a wry smile.

The two came from the Western World.

During the Dao-Devil War, Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luohu had fought in the Western World.

After Demon Ancestor Luohu was defeated, he had detonated the ley lines of the Western World, dealing it an almost devastating blow. Not only had its spiritual energy become extremely scarce, but nearly all its spiritual roots and fruits had also been wiped out.

The two brothers thought constantly about how to restore the Western World.

Both were incarnations of Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Roots, and their origins and talents ranked among the very best in the Primordial World. Yet they had been willing to become bandits and thieves, deceiving and swindling their way through the Eastern World.

Xuanyuan had obtained just two Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures from them, and they had resented him ever since.

The Innate Gourd Vine had borne seven innate gourds. With a little refining, each could have become a Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

And now they were being destroyed right before their eyes.

The two brothers were so heartbroken they could hardly breathe.

"They may not have been destroyed!"

Taiqing Laozi suddenly said. "They're Supreme Grade Innate embryos, after all. They won't be destroyed so easily!"

Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures were powerful enough to greatly aid even a Saint. Although the combined attack of so many powerful figures might not have been weaker than a Saint's in total energy, it was scattered, and each person wielded their power differently. They simply couldn't form a unified force.

It was enough to deal with a Quasi-Saint, but nowhere near enough to destroy a Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Hearing Taiqing Laozi's words, Jieyin and Zhunti were overjoyed.

The two exchanged a glance, then rushed forward at top speed before the others could react.
