Even from a great distance, the unceasing fluctuations still blasted Li Xuan, making him unsteady on his feet.
This was a battle at the Golden Immortal level.
Looking closely.
The besieged man, named Huang Hu, was covered in blood from head to toe.
As for the other five surrounding him, their faces were cruel, utterly bloodthirsty!
"You filthy insects! This humble Beast Clan! Would ever submit to you!? And you Mottled Birds! Colluding with a swarm of bugs! One day you'll suffer the backlash! All of you will die!!"
Huang Hu was clearly at his last gasp, and under his frantic counterattack, the five of them dared not approach easily.
"Hmph, kill him, divide and devour."
"Raving before death!"
"If he won't submit, then kill!"
With Huang Hu's words, the five no longer held back!
Though all five were beings at the first or second level of Golden Immortal.
Still, five ganging up on a fifth-level Golden Immortal like Huang Hu was simple enough.
"This fight, tsk tsk..."
From afar, Li Xuan quietly hid himself, watching the battle ahead with an excited face, smacking his lips.
Too bad he didn't have a bucket of popcorn in hand right now.
This was an absolute visual feast! No blockbuster could match this realism.
But no matter, he had picked a few bright red, delicious Spirit Fruits along the way, so he could eat those instead.
The saying goes, spectators never think the fire is big enough; even if someone dies, they'll just clap and shout "awesome."
But that's only under the premise of roughly equal strength...
If a bunch of big shots are fighting and you, a nobody, go watch, that's just asking for death...
So, Li Xuan had only been watching for a short while when one of the five beings besieging Huang Hu suddenly charged straight at him!
"You little Beast Clan ant! What are you looking at!?"
With a killing intent that blotted out the sky, only that single voice remained in Li Xuan's ears.
With a plop, the fruit in Li Xuan's hand fell to the ground.
He was dumbstruck.
"Damn!"
Mount Taixuan, Li Xuan's eyes snapped open, and he cursed loudly: "Fuck! You're all dead! Just wait for me!!"
With that, he moved, intending to get up and rush to the battlefield to kill those beings.
But after just a few steps, he slowed down, rubbed his chin, and muttered: "This Seat going himself is too risky. If I die, it's game over completely. No, no..."
Saying this, he turned back, walked onto the Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus Platform, sat down, and simply formed hand seals again, condensing another clone.
The clone snorted coldly, picked up the Qiankun Diagram, and planned to go settle the score.
But after just a few steps, the clone muttered: "Hmm... but if this one dies again, the Qiankun Diagram will be lost..."
After thinking on the spot for a moment, the clone sighed and said: "Forget it, one should be lenient when possible. After all, it's just a clone... Hmph! They got lucky!"
Finished speaking, the clone put the Qiankun Diagram back beside the main body, then said: "This time, heading south! Can't possibly run into such ruthless people again."
The clone took to the air again, this time heading south of Mount Taixuan.
Flying all the way, it was much the same as going west—days passed without seeing a single person, even more desolate than the western route.
"Did that great battle really leave things like this?"
Li Xuan naturally knew why it was so bleak—it had to be because of the calamity.
But he hadn't expected this great tribulation to be so brutally bloody.
It seemed the vast majority of Primordial Beings were now gathered in the west, at the location of Kirin Mountain...
He continued flying forward.
After another day or two, things gradually started to get lively.
This time, Li Xuan learned his lesson. Whenever he saw a fight, he stopped from far away and watched quietly.
Sure enough, this method let his clone survive for over ten more days!
But sometimes, wanting to live isn't enough to make it happen.
That day, Li Xuan heard the sounds of battle from a great distance and planned to head over.
But before he could take a few steps, a massive chain of fire descended from the sky...
Without realizing it, he had stepped into the combat range of a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal...
So, what killed him was merely the aftershock...
"Holy shit... that was brutal... the Primordial Wilderness is a land of endless danger!"
Opening his eyes, Li Xuan clicked his tongue in disbelief.
But this time, he had no complaints about dying. He immediately formed another hand seal and condensed another clone.
To be fair, the death of a clone also affected the main body.
After all, a clone was formed from condensed spiritual energy. When it died, the main body lost a portion of that energy—roughly one-thousandth.
But for Li Xuan, that tiny loss was utterly insignificant!
In the Primordial Wilderness, spiritual energy was as abundant as one could wish for.
If not for Li Xuan's abysmal talent, he would have long since broken through to Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, stepped into Golden Immortal of the Origin, or even reached Quasi-Saint over these hundreds of thousands of years!
This was a classic case: it wasn't a lack of resources—it was all his own uselessness...
The clone set out again, this time heading north.
It went even worse...
Barely three or four days in, a Golden Immortal elder locked onto Li Xuan.
He chased him down and killed him on the spot, on the grounds that Li Xuan had taken form from the Beast Clan.
"The hell? I'm a beast?"
"I'm a human! A noble human!"
Li Xuan opened his eyes, cursed under his breath, then formed another hand seal...
From then on, Li Xuan embarked on a miserable journey of using clones to scout the way...
The clones scattered in all directions, surviving anywhere from a few days to dozens of days, then months, and finally even a year or two...
Over several thousand years, the range Li Xuan had explored grew larger and larger.
At the same time, the information he gathered became more and more abundant.
By now, the overall situation in the Primordial Wilderness had basically been set.
It was the Scaled Tribe and the Feathered Tribe joining forces to besiege the Beast Clan!
Why? Because the Beast Clan simply had too many creatures!
This provoked the wariness of the Ancestor Dragon and the Primordial Phoenix, who secretly joined forces to first destroy the Beast Clan's leader, the Prime Kirin, and then settle their own score afterward!
Thus, the Beast Clan—once the strongest of the three lineages—was now being crushed miserably, with casualties everywhere.
But the Beast Clan's resistance was also fierce. Under the Prime Kirin's leadership, they fought back with wild frenzy!
As a result, the entire Primordial Wilderness was engulfed in war, teeming with deadly danger everywhere.
No wonder beings like Bright Rabbit considered the Mount Taixuan region a peaceful, blessed land.
After all, within Mount Taixuan's domain, first, it was a barren wasteland of poor mountains and harsh waters.
Second, under the protection of the Grand Profound Illusory Realm Array, not a shred of aura leaked out.
No one could possibly detect that beast-type creatures lived here.
One day.
Li Xuan's clone carefully flew forward, keeping as low to the ground as possible.
He had gained plenty of experience from dying.
This clone had survived for nearly fifteen years!
He couldn't let it die for nothing—otherwise, he'd have to start all over again from Mount Taixuan...
By now, he had traveled far beyond Mount Taixuan's range, and this time, his direction was west!
"Boom, boom, boom!"
A sudden roar came from ahead. Li Xuan shrank his head and quickly descended.
He completely suppressed his aura, then crept forward bit by bit.
In the sky ahead, a Luan Bird and a massive Flood Dragon were locked in a deadly battle!
Both were powerful beings at the tenth level of Golden Immortal!
Now that the Beast Clan was in decline and the Prime Kirin was suppressed on Kirin Mountain, on the verge of extinction, the contradictions between the Feathered Tribe and the Scaled Tribe had begun to intensify.
After all, this was the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity, not the Beast Calamity. So after the initial phase of joining forces to wipe out the Beast Clan's power, the next step was the two sides' all-out deathmatch.
Just from watching the Luan Bird and Flood Dragon fight in the sky, it was clear that the former allies
were now on the verge of a complete rupture.
