232. The First Step in Building a Faction: Gaia!

Following the memories of the Creation Main God, Donghua flew southeast, but he was not in a hurry. He flew and stopped along the way, experiencing the uniqueness of this world and the lives of ordinary cultivators.

In fact, the potential of a world is not solely determined by its top-tier combat power, but also by the ordinary cultivators; both are equally important.

This sounds unbelievable, since in a world Greatness Returns to Oneself, strength is fundamental.

That's true, but it depends on which perspective you're looking at it from. For example, after Hongjun attained Attain Sainthood, he didn't Preaching the Dao his teachings to the world. Instead, he divided up the Primordial Wilderness world's fortune and took it for himself. In that case, the potential of the Primordial Wilderness would be greatly reduced, and it would be hard to say whether there would even be Hun Yuan in the future.

It was because Hongjun Preaching the Dao throughout the world that the Primordial Wilderness was able to usher in its greatest period of development, greatly enhancing the strength of the lower and middle levels of the Primordial Wilderness, which led to the current situation of having many Golden Immortal and Grand Unity in the Primordial Wilderness.

Whether it's the Witch and Demon Races or the Purple Mansion, their strength has far surpassed that of the Three Clans Dragon-Han Period; this is a comprehensive transcendence.

You must know that Dragon-Han Period, the Great Dao was high and mighty, and the Divine Dao was prevalent throughout the world. It was the most glorious time. As long as you had a little bit of comprehension, you could understand something from the Great Dao.

With the retreat of the Great Dao and the emergence of the Heavenly Dao, the decline of the Divine Dao began. Many people were stuck at a certain realm for many years and could not break through, which gradually led to the saying that the Divine Dao was not suitable for cultivation.

In reality, Divine Dao is still Divine Dao, only it has become much more difficult to cultivate, requiring truly qualified and talented individuals to practice it.

In the Western Region world, the only cultivation system has always been the Divine Dao. There are no other cultivation systems here, only the Divine Dao path. And most importantly, traces of the Great Dao can still be seen here, which means that the Great Dao has not truly retreated from this world.

Therefore, this is the best of times!

Especially for Donghua, as he is about to break through the Hunyuan Hun Yuan, being able to directly comprehend the Great Dao will allow him to break through the three paths as quickly as possible, uniting the three paths of gods, immortals, and demons to achieve the Hunyuan Triple Heaven. He does not seek to surpass Hongjun, but only to catch up with him.

After all, Hongjun had too many favorable timing and circumstances when he became Attain Sainthood. It can be said that Hongjun alone possessed half of the destiny of Primordial Wilderness prehistoric world. If he hadn't later merged with the Dao and returned this destiny to the Primordial Wilderness, there probably wouldn't have been the prosperity of the Primordial Wilderness afterward.

So in a sense, Hongjun was indeed a great man. No matter what his plans were or what his motives were, his actions were truly convincing, and he deserved the title of Dao Ancestor!

As Donghua traveled, he witnessed the prosperity of the world. He found that the lower-level cultivators of this world were very rigid and did not have the spirit of fighting against Primordial Wilderness that the cultivators of the prehistoric era possessed. They silently accepted the exploitation and rule of the upper-level cultivators, as if everything should be this way. Class consciousness was deeply ingrained in their hearts.

This state shouldn't occur in cultivators. He could understand it if it were an ordinary mortal, but how could someone who has already embarked on the path of cultivation be like this?

"Perhaps this world truly needs a God, a God who will lead them to overthrow this class system, God who will guide them toward self-improvement, and I am that God!"

At this moment, Donghua understood where he should start and how to establish his power in this world. His way out lay in these low-level cultivators. He wanted to establish a religion, a holy religion, and then preach its doctrines to awaken these people.

With the angels and the Holy Church at my disposal, I refuse to believe I can't become the new King of Gods.

Having thought this through, Donghua didn't linger any longer and headed straight for the Phoenix Clan. His first priority was to subdue this race and make them his loyal subordinates.

The Canaan is the homeland of the Western Region Phoenix Clan, their territory since the beginning of time.

The Phoenix is a firebird that is engulfed in flames, resembling an eagle, with feathers that are half gold and half crimson. It possesses extremely strong fire manipulation abilities, is born with the power to control Undying Fire, and is the darling of the Great Way of Fire.

However, their combat strength is relatively weak, but they possess the miraculous ability to be reborn from the ashes, which is similar to the phoenix in the Primordial World.

However, their combat strength is incomparable to that of the Phoenix Clan; the difference is too great.

"Who goes there? How dare you trespass on my clan's territory?" Donghua concealed his presence and traveled to the center of the Phoenix Clan's territory, where he also disappeared.

Donghua said nonchalantly, "Go and call your clan leader out to speak!"

"Hmph, what kind of scoundrel are you? You dare to make our clan leader come out to see you? You're asking for death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he charged straight at them.

This action left Donghua somewhat incredulous. Were the people of this world so reckless? Did they not even consider the opponent's cultivation level before daring to charge in like this?

Donghua waved his hand helplessly, sending the man flying, but not killing him; it was a simple lesson.

To attack someone who is only at the True Immortal level would indeed be beneath him, and he had absolutely no interest in it.

"Looks like I can't keep a low profile today. In that case, I'll make a big show of it!"

Donghua leaped into the air, revealing the strongest form of an angel. An Angel Dharma Form appeared behind him, with nine wings and eighteen wings, illuminating the earth with the power of light, and a powerful pressure swept across the entire Canaan.

The Path of Light is also one of the Three Thousand Paths. After the Path of Pure Yang in the Eastern Flower was perfected, it was already mastered without a teacher, since these two paths have a high degree of similarity.

"Undying God King, come out and see me!"

A voice emanated from Donghua's mouth, like the murmur of the Great Dao, devoid of any emotion, only boundless pressure, overwhelming all directions.

"Who dares to be so insolent in my tribe!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two figures flew up and stood opposite Donghua, a man and a woman.

The woman has red hair and appears gentle and refined, yet possesses a wild beauty. She is the queen of the Phoenix Clan and is also known as the Undying God King.

The man had blond hair, a burly build, and an aura of dominance. He possessed the cultivation of a Quasi -Quasi-Saint in the early stages. He was the Priest of the Phoenix Clan and the husband of the Undying God King.

"I am Jesus, the Archangel Lord God. I have heard that the Phoenix Clan has defied the rule of the Divine Court and acted recklessly, even daring to kill my Divine Court messengers. They truly do not know their own mortality! Today I have come to subdue you!"

Donghua's voice was flat and unremarkable, yet full of provocation. As for the envoy, he obviously didn't exist; he had just made one up on the spot.

However, at this juncture, the Phoenix Clan will definitely acknowledge this matter, because it's a matter of face, so they have to accept it even if they don't want to.

After all, a cause must have a legitimate reason!

"You insignificant brat! You dare to be so presumptuous in my clan with only the cultivation of an early-stage main god? Don't you fear becoming a laughingstock? Today, not only will the envoy remain, but you, the main god, will also be forced to stay here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Priest charged forward with his spear. With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed the flames of immortality, and the powerful divine force transformed into a Phoenix that cried out as it soared upwards, attempting to devour Donghua.

Donghua didn't care at all. Although his cultivation level was only at the early stage of Quasi-Saint, his combat strength was probably stronger than even a Late Stage Quasi-Saint.

With hands clasped together, the power of light converged, and the sacred aura, combined with the imperial way of Donghua, stood like a sun in the Canaan.

I said, you are guilty!

An ancient voice resounded, permeating the entire world, and all who heard it knelt down, paying homage to Donghua.

The Phoenix Clan Priest struggled to resist the invasion of the Great Dao, for the moment the sound rang out, Donghua's Imperial Dao, under the light, had already invaded his Great Dao, crushing it completely, leaving him unable to muster even the slightest will to resist.

"Not good!"

The Undying God King was watching from the sidelines, also noticed Donghua's strange behavior and instantly realized that her husband had fallen into a trap. This person could not be measured by cultivation level at all.

It immediately transformed into its true form, the Phoenix, and soared into the sky. The powerful flames of immortality carried the divine power of the Great Dao, spreading across the Sky Vault and hurtling towards Donghua.

Donghua sneered, "Disrespecting angels and disobeying God's commands, you deserve to die too!"

As the words fell, the powerful Emperor Dao Power transformed into divine chains of rules, suppressing the Undying God King and extinguishing all his immortal flames. It then attempted to bind and capture him.

The Undying God King was greatly shocked by this scene. This Angel God was so powerful that he defeated the two of them in a single exchange, without even seeing their faces. Just who was this person?

But there was no time to think; the powerful chains of rules were about to fall.

With a flap of its wings, the Undying God King unleashed countless fire blades, each imbued with powerful divine energy.

The fire blade instantly shattered Donghua's chains of divine rules, thus neutralizing this wave of attacks.

The Undying God King flew over and rescued her husband, helping him to deflect the attack from the Great Dao.

After regaining their senses, the two looked at Donghua with lingering fear and heavy expressions. This time, they had truly encountered a formidable enemy. A simple probing attack had overwhelmed them. How were they supposed to proceed with the battle that followed?

Who exactly are you?

Donghua spread his arms and calmly said, "I am the Archangel Lord God, who has come to save humanity, eliminate sin, and judge the gods. You may call me God."

Although the words were spoken calmly, they sounded extremely arrogant to the two of them.

Who dares to say they will judge the gods? Even the King of Gods wouldn't dare to say that, since the gods were created by the Chaos God and the five Creation God. Each of them is a favorite of the world, and each god has an extremely profound background, closely connected with the Creation God.

"What you want to do is none of my clan's business. My clan loves peace and never participates in the struggles between different forces, so you are not welcome here. Please leave!"

The Undying God King's expression was grave. A scepter appeared in her hand, and she channeled her divine power to its limit. She looked at Donghua warily, sensing that she had truly encountered a formidable opponent this time, an existence even more terrifying than the King of Gods.

"It is precisely because your race loves peace and commits few sins that I believe there is still hope for you, and that is why I am giving you this opportunity. As long as you follow me, I will grant you a new life. Are you willing?"

As Donghua spoke, he unleashed a powerful divine light, instantly brainwashing countless Phoenix Clan members and turning them into his loyal followers.

This method is indeed not honorable, but Donghua doesn't care about that at all. To the Western Region world, he is an outsider, and sooner or later they will be mortal enemies. This is not something that can be avoided by any means.

Therefore, from the very beginning, he had no intention of carefully managing this world; what he wanted was the Luck Power, and incidentally, to annex this world.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Undying God King was enraged. This person dared to convert his own people right in front of him, showing utter disregard for him.

Enraged, they launched a fierce attack. This time, both of them went all out. The couple cooperated closely, their divine powers flowing together. In an instant, their great powers merged, and two Phoenix that Covering the Heavens the sky rose into the air, standing tall in the Sky Vault.

Then, the powerful Undying Divine Flame swept in, transforming into countless spear shadows that attacked Donghua.

"Angel God, do you think the King of Gods isn't attacking us out of mercy? You're too naive. He's not attacking because he's afraid!"

Donghua smiled calmly. All he had done was to provoke these two. How could they submit to him if he didn't truly frighten them?

Whether in Previous Life or present lives, these Western Region are all scoundrels. Before doing anything, all they need to do is beat them up, and they're guaranteed to get things done.

Donghua spread his arms wide, and a bright golden giant sword appeared in his hands. It was then grasped by the Angel Dharma Form. This sword was named: Angel Holy Sword!

This is a spirit sword that Donghua forged in imitation of the Heavenly Emperor Sword. It was made using Innate Purple Qi and Chaos Source Qi. Because it was forged in chaos, it was born as Innate Spiritual Treasure.

This time, Donghua held nothing back, unleashing his full power: the Light Great Dao, the Purification Great Dao, the Path of the Emperor, and the Path of Darkness formed from reincarnation.

The four Great Dao Power were combined and unified by the Emperor's Way. The Angel Dharma Form left the body and instantly attacked the two. Its figure was huge and no weaker than the Phoenix's original body.

"The Sword of Judgment!"

A terrifying sword aura slashed out, tearing the sky and splitting the earth, its light illuminating the heavens. Wherever the divine power passed, it instantly turned the two people's Undying Fire into nothingness.

The Undying God King and the Priest were shocked. Was this the power a primary god could display in his early stages?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! The two of us combined are enough to fight against a late-stage Main God. How could you, a mere early-stage Main God, possibly have such strength?"

Donghua said disdainfully, "How could ants know the vastness of heaven and earth? You are all sinful people. Under the judgment of my Angel Holy Sword, you will have nowhere to hide. Kneel down and submit, and I may spare your lives!"

After Donghua finished speaking, he launched another attack without waiting for the two to reply. Sword energies slashed out, leaving the two with no power to fight back. They could only defend passively, and soon their true bodies were covered with heavy wounds.

At this moment, the Angel Dharma Form spread its nine wings, and the holy sword in its hand emitted endless radiance, its powerful Emperor Dao Power shaking the Myriad Worlds.

This battle finally attracted the attention of the major gods and supreme deities of the Western Region world.

"Who is this person? How could he possibly beat the Undying God King and the Priest to this state!"

"Such powerful Light Law, such domineering Imperial Dao Divine Power! To be able to suppress the Phoenix Clan with only the strength of an early-stage God."

"..."

On Mount Olympus, a goddess opened her eyes and looked towards the Canaan, her gaze fixed on the battle between the three.

This person is known as Gaia, the Mother of the Mother of Earth Goddess. She is also called the Mother of All Gods and is the first Creation God born into the world.

"Who is this person? I have no recollection of him?"

Gaia murmured something, then her eyes moved, and a powerful Hunyuan Power began to circulate, instantly connecting with the entire Western Region world and beginning to calculate Donghua's past.

However, after Gaia did some calculations, he frowned and looked incredulous.

"How is it possible that this person was born at the very beginning of time, a god born in accordance with the Great Dao?"

This deduction completely shocked Gaia. The Western Gods were all transformed from the Chaos God, created by the five Supreme Creation God, and some were created by the Lord of Rules and the Lord of Destiny.

There are very few gods who are truly born from the Great Dao, and each one is incredibly powerful. How could she possibly be just an early-stage main god? However, as the Mother of Earth and the Supreme God herself, the result she calculated could not be wrong.

"Jesus, angel, God, interesting. I'd like to meet you and see who you really are!"

After Gaia finished speaking, he got up and left Mount Olympus, heading towards the Canaan.

In fact, Donghua had already used the power of spacetime to connect with the Great Dao that existed in the Western Region world when he took on the form.

If a strange god suddenly appears, and you want to survive in the Western Region world while also evading the search of the Creation God, then you have no choice but to rely on the Great Dao; otherwise, there is no way you can escape.

The Great Dao of this world has not yet receded, which is why Donghua was able to exploit this loophole, preventing the Supreme Gods from finding any trace of him. They could only trace him back to the Great Dao itself, but they were still too inexperienced to uncover the truth within the Great Dao.

At this point in Canaan, Donghua was single-handedly overpowering the two, and the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable for them.

After repelling one of Donghua's attacks, the Undying God King and the Priest exchanged a glance and then attacked together.

The two Daos merged instantly. With the Undying Divine Flame combined with the Dao of Fire, the two figures gradually merged together, transforming into a golden Phoenix.

The Phoenix roared to the sky, its boundless divine power piercing through heaven and earth, its aura clearly reaching the late stage of the main god realm.

"Undying Divine Flame, incinerate heaven and earth!"

A voice rang out, and then terrifying divine power of the Great Dao transformed into Undying Divine Flame, while the power of the Great Dao Rules formed divine wheels, causing the heavens and earth to tremble wherever they passed.

Donghua recalled the Angel Dharma Form, gripped the Angel Holy Sword, and murmured, "Interesting. They can actually merge together. It seems they're not entirely useless after all."

The fusion of the Great Daos is nothing special. Just like when Donghua and West Queen Mother fought against Lu Ya, the Moon Great Dao merged together, transforming into Yin-Yang power, instantly boosting their strength to the level of Late Stage Quasi-Saint.

But the two of them actually merged together, something Donghua had never heard of before. It was indeed a bit hard to believe, after all, humans and the Great Dao are different. Humans are spiritual beings with their own thoughts, so how could they possibly become exactly the same?

It's like an attack coming at you. People have different ideas, so they make different choices. And when masters clash, it's just a matter of a moment. Maybe the two people haven't even reached an agreement yet, and the opponent's attack has already arrived.

Therefore, it's not that people can't merge, but rather that merging doesn't increase their strength; on the contrary, it decreases their strength and becomes their biggest weakness.

Seeing the two attacks, Donghua immediately responded, his Angel Dharma Form instantly merging into his body, achieving oneness with the Great Dao, and transforming into an angelic form.

"Angel Radiance!"

The powerful Great Dao Power spread out, like a new sun rising, illuminating all the heavens, sacred and inviolable.

The divine power flowed from the Angel Holy Sword, and two sword beams, like a cross, simultaneously attacked the Phoenix.

Wherever the divine light spread, the Undying Divine Flame seemed to have encountered its nemesis and was instantly shattered.

The two sword beams pressed forward relentlessly, shattering the Divine Wheel of Rules, which then dissipated into the Great Dao Power throughout the world.

The sword light continued forward, the divine power of the Great Dao piercing through the sky and landing directly on the Phoenix.

The divine bird cried mournfully, and divine blood was spilled across the sky.

How tragic!

The two were instantly shattered and fell to the ground.

The Undying God King stared in disbelief at everything; their combined divine power had been broken just like that?

But before she could react, Donghua unleashed another sword strike, killing the Priest instantly and shattering his path to enlightenment.

"You're so cruel, you..."

Before she could finish speaking, Donghua had already attacked her.

The villain dies from talking too much; Donghua always remembered this saying.

And don't be fooled by the fact that he defeated two people in one move; that attack had used up all his strength, and his divine power was being rapidly depleted, with little left. After all, he was only at the early stage of Quasi-Saint cultivation.

So he didn't have much time left in this world!

Donghua unleashed a sword strike, intending to kill the Undying God King, but the king blocked it with his scepter.

"Another Destiny Spiritual Treasure!"

He instantly realized that the scepter was probably a top-tier spiritual treasure, and moreover, a treasure related to fortune.

"Just a last-ditch struggle!"

Donghua sheathed the Angel Holy Sword, channeled the Great Dao Power, and activated the nine wings on his back. Countless Dao Feather Sword slashed out, instantly breaking through the scepter's defense.

Then countless Feather Sword blasted the Undying God King into a sieve, shattering his physical body and destroying his Great Dao, thus ending his life completely.

However, Donghua set his sights on the place where the two had died, waiting for their resurrection!

The Phoenix Clan isn't particularly strong in combat, but they possess the ability to resurrect, so generally no one wants to provoke them.

Sure enough, not long after, a golden divine fire ignited where the two had died, and then grew larger and larger.

The power of the Great Dao Rules gradually manifested, and two figures slowly emerged. With two long cries, two Phoenix were reborn from the ashes.

"Angel God, we've always kept to ourselves, so why are you so determined to wipe us out? Our Phoenix Clan is small in number, but we are all immortal. We only wish to live peacefully in this world and have no desire to participate in any conflicts. You should leave!"

The Undying God King spread his wings in the Sky Vault and spoke the words in his heart.

Donghua chuckled, said nothing, but once again summoned the Angel Holy Sword, took out two golden apples and ate them, replenishing his divine power.

They then attacked the two again!

Two sword beams slashed out, instantly sending the two away without any pain, because this time it was faster and more ruthless than the last!

But not long after, the two were resurrected!

Donghua remained silent, simply swinging his sword and slashing people repeatedly.

Although he did not know the true meaning of Nirvana, everything has its limits, and there is no one in this world who is truly immortal.

Even Hun Yuan won't do!

After dying five times, the two were resurrected and before Donghua could even make a move, they knelt down and trembled as they said, "My Lord God, we are willing to submit to you, obey your commands, and bask in the Glory of Angels!"

Donghua spread his arms, and the angel wings emitted endless radiance, shining on the two of them, instantly branding them with Donghua's mark.

"Children who have strayed but have returned to the right path, your sins are not deep. After being bathed in the glory of the Lord, you will be cleansed of your sins under God's rule and shine brightly for the world once more!"

The two knelt reverently before Donghua and said, "We will accept the Lord's Teachings!"

Donghua laughed heartily, "This time it's a success!"

What he didn't know was that Gaia, the Creation God, was already on her way to Canaan.

P. S.: This world is coming to an end, and we're about to return to the Primordial World. Please give me some monthly votes!
