The Three Pure Ones Comprehend the Dao, the Mysterious Zhi
The Chaos Bell flew back into Taiyi's hand once more. Jieyin and Zhunti were defeated, and Longevity Mountain fell silent again.
"No one can stop me from doing what I'm about to do, and no one is qualified to stop me."
Taiyi's arrogant voice echoed throughout Longevity Mountain, terrifying all who heard it, while the demon army surrounding Longevity Mountain roared wildly.
"Demon! Demon! Demon!"
"Your Majesty is mighty!"
The sound Yunxiao, and the shouts of millions of demons caused the sky and earth to change color, and the clouds in the nine heavens to tremble.
"Hahaha!"
Taiyi burst into loud laughter, his unrestrained laughter echoing throughout Longevity Mountain.
Within the space, gazing at the arrogant Taiyi, Taishang said in a deep voice, "Second brother, third brother, why don't you two test Taiyi? I have a feeling there's something strange about him!"
Yuanshi snorted coldly and said, "Why bother testing him? Watch me break his supernatural powers!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuanshi appeared on Longevity Mountain in a flash, with Tongtian following closely behind.
"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, I am late! Please forgive me!"
Zhen Yuanzi quickly replied, "Not at all, Brother Dao, your timing is perfect. We can take down this demon Taiyi fell swoop."
Yuanshi laughed heartily and echoed, "Hahaha, fellow Daoist, your words are exactly what I thought. I don't see even a trace of Innate Deities in Taiyi; he's nothing but a Demonic Head, no different from Di Jun, just a demon cub of Luohu!"
"Ha ha..."
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, especially Zhunti, who mocked Taiyi again, showing that he wouldn't lose face even if he lost the argument.
"Senior brother, Taiyi has already broken through to the Quasi-Saint realm, and we are no match for him. We have already come once today, and we have gained both favor and benefits. After they start fighting, we will return to the Western Land. There, even if Taiyi breaks through to the Quasi-Saint realm, as long as he dares to come, we will make sure he never returns!"
After laughing, Zhunti secretly transmitted his voice to Jieyin, saying that he felt no sense of security at all on Longevity Mountain.
Jieyin shook his head and said, "Wait a little longer, there's no rush. Today I observed Taiyi's fortune. Although it shines like the sun, it's like a duckweed in the rain, without any foundation. His fortune and momentum have come to an end!"
Upon hearing this, Zhunti glanced at his senior brother in shock, then looked at Taiyi. He scanned with his Dharma Eye, but it was suppressed by the Great Dao Power from Taiyi's body, and he could see nothing.
Then he looked at his senior brother. He felt that Jieyin was fooling him. Although his strength was not as good as his senior brother's, it was not that much worse. "I can't see anything, but you can see it at a glance."
But Jieyin said nothing more, and the old god began to heal his wounds and watch the battle between Yuanshi and Taiyi.
This was the first clash between the Primordial Chaos Bell and the Primordial Pangu Banner, both of which were considered supreme treasures of creation. Everyone was filled with anticipation. The only downside was that Yuanshi was only at the Peak Quasi-Saint, Taiyi.
Meanwhile, all the Great Powers in the Primordial Wilderness were watching the battle at Longevity Mountain, especially the Northern Darkness Old Ancestor Kunpeng and the Blood Sea Ancestor Minghe, who were hiding near Longevity Mountain.
In fact, the two of them had long ago plotted together how to scheme against Hong Yun and seize the Primordial Violet Qi.
Unexpectedly, Taiyi made the first move, and the Primordial Violet Qi was not in Hong Yun's hands. At this moment, they felt fortunate that they hadn't made a move, otherwise they would have gained nothing and offended three Great Powers.
Hong Yun, Zhen Yuanzi, Donghua!
Especially Donghua, Hong Yun offered you the Primordial Violet Qi, but suffered a great calamity because of it. Shouldn't you show some appreciation?
Within the Purple Mansion of the East Sea, the West Queen Mother observed the battle through the Kunlun Mirror.
At a certain moment, however, he suddenly gave the order:
"Fuxi, Longbo, Great Commander of Fate, Shao Siming, Lord of the Clouds!"
"Exist!"
"I trouble the five Emperor Lords to lead their armies to Longevity Mountain and await the opportune moment. At that time, we will wipe out those millions of demons in one fell swoop, completely break their backbone, and destroy their Demon Race Heavenly Court."
After the words were spoken, the five of them were a little confused. Taiyi clearly had the upper hand, so why did Purple Mansion still need to send troops to suppress the demon race? But none of them asked any more questions and accepted the order!
"Your Majesty, is it His Majesty...?"
"No need to ask any more questions, go!"
The five gathered a million-strong army of the Purple Mansion warriors, concealed within the spatial world, and began their journey towards Longevity Mountain.
On Longevity Mountain!
Yuanshi didn't say anything, but took a few steps back. The Pangu Banner appeared in his hand, and an ancient and profound aura emerged, as if it were the Dao itself.
Pangu Banner, a supreme treasure from the beginning of creation!
It possesses the power to tear apart the Primordial Chaos, the power to shatter the heavens and the universe, the power to interpret the Wuji way of creation, and the power to open up the world.
Furthermore, it can control the power of heaven and earth, and its ability to attack and create is unparalleled in the primordial Primordial Wilderness.
It mastered the methods of "destruction," "establishment," "forbiddenness," and "annihilation," and could unleash Chaos Sword Qi, making it the most lethal weapon.
The Yuanshi power surged, the Great Dao emerged, and the Pangu Banner in his hand released Chaos Qi, which then transformed into endless Chaos Sword Qi.
Centered on the Yuanshi One himself, the Chaos Sword Qi swept across the land, the void began to shatter, mountains and rivers collapsed, and Earth, Water, Fire, Wind reappeared in the world, eventually transforming into a chaotic world.
It marched towards Taiyi to suppress him!
Taiyi hand and a bell in the other.
The Great Dao Power erupted, and the Chaos Bell flew out of his hand, heading towards the Yuanshi to suppress it.
The Chaos Bell possesses the power to suppress the "Primordial World," the ability to reverse the "spacetime of all heavens," the power to evolve the "mysteries of the Heavenly Dao," and the power to refine the elements of "Earth, Water, Fire, Wind."
It's incredibly versatile, unparalleled in defense, offense, and suppression.
A priceless treasure that should never exist in this world!
The two rose from Longevity Mountain and engaged in a fierce battle in the Sky Vault.
The power of the two Innate Supreme Treasure changed the color of the Sky Vault and disrupted spacetime, yet they were easily suppressed.
The fighting continues!
Although Yuanshi's realm was not as high as Taiyi's, he cultivated the three paths of gods, immortals, and demons, and with the Innate Supreme Treasure Pangu Banner, which was unparalleled in attack and defense, he was able to fight Taiyi to a standstill for a time.
However, the difference in their realms is ultimately there. Taiyi has already broken through to the Quasi-Saint Quasi-Saint Realm. His Great Dao and magical power are almost perfectly Hun Yuan. Coupled with the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell, he can indeed be invincible in the current Primordial Wilderness.
Perhaps he wasn't invincible, because there was another being of the same realm, possessing both Innate Supreme Treasure and Merit Supreme Treasure, yet whose true strength was unknown, waiting for Taishang to strike.
But regardless, the current Yuanshi is indeed inferior to the Taiyi.
As the battle continued, Yuanshi gradually fell into a disadvantageous position. With the support of Taiyi's Hunyuan Magical Power, the powerful Chaos Bell forced Yuanshi to retreat step by step, and he began to suffer some injuries.
But Yuanshi didn't care about any of that. He only knew how to charge and kill. The Pangu Banner in his hand surged, and the boundless Chaos Sword Qi caused the heavens and the sky to change color. The endless void appeared before everyone's eyes, and every collision made the heavens and the earth tremble.
"Yuanshi brat, today I'll show you how worthless your arrogance is!"
Taiyi took a few steps back, the Chaos Bell empowering his right hand. The bronze bell and his entire arm gradually merged together, as if they were one.
A punch was thrown!
The world is silent, time flows backward!
Yuanshi also went all out, unleashing the power of the three paths of gods, immortals, and demons, as well as the Three Thousand Great Daos. The Yuqing Great Path pierced through heaven and earth, Myriad Heavens Auspicious Cloud protected him. The Pangu Banner in his hand stirred up Chaos Sword Qi.
"Chan!"
A vast and righteous voice resounded between heaven and earth, causing the Heavenly Dao Power to manifest in the Primordial Wilderness. The Primordial Violet Qi within the primordial spirit trembled instantly, bringing with it the Chaos Sword Qi. The two forces combined and attacked Taiyi.
"Buzz!"
"Splash!"
Voices echoed throughout the heavens and River of Time and River of Destiny appeared, converging to reveal a chaotic, dark color, from which Purple Qi was born.
"This is the Chaos Hongmeng!"
The collision between the two caused time and destiny to merge, forming the Chaos Hongmeng.
After the attack, Yuanshi was knocked to the ground and spat out a mouthful of divine blood.
Taiyi stood in the Sky Vault, but a trace of golden divine blood was left at the corner of his mouth.
The outcome was clear: Yuanshi was seriously injured, while Taiyi only suffered minor injuries.
But the truth was that Yuanshi laughed heartily on the earth, while Taiyi stood in the Sky Vault with a gloomy face.
Yuanshi stood up and laughed heartily, "Many thanks to Fellow Taiyi for helping me; my path is complete!"
Hearing this, Taiyi's face darkened even more, mainly because he felt extremely aggrieved. Although he had won, it was as if he was the one who had lost in the end.
It's really so painful.
An endless killing intent surged toward Yuanshi, causing boundless shockwaves.
But at that moment, two figures appeared in front of Yuanshi, namely Tongtian and Taishang, who blocked all the attacks and pressure.
"Taiyi, let me test your abilities!"
The Qingping Sword appeared around Tongtian, surrounded by the Immortal Slaying Four Swords. A powerful sword intent Tongtian through the heavens, and the purest killing intent, amplified by the Great Dao Power, swept across the sky.
But Taiyi snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "You are no different from Yuanshi, not worthy of my attention. Let Taishang come up. Do you Three Pure Ones intend to use a tag-team approach? If you have no shame, then come at me all at once! What do I have to fear!"
The Taishang smiled nonchalantly and said softly, "No need. Let my third brother fight. If he loses, the Three Pure Ones will not intervene today. What do you say?"
Taiyi snorted coldly, but the anger in his heart had reached its peak. Taishang's words were truly insulting. Although Tongtian was powerful and his Immortal Slaying Sword Array was unparalleled, he was still a little short of defeating him.
Tongtian stepped forward and slowly stood in the Sky Vault.
"Taiyi, I will only strike once, and after that, I will not strike again. This is the sword strike I promised Donghua!"
"Enough with the nonsense! Don't even mention a single sword strike; I'd let you unleash a hundred, a thousand strikes, what harm could I do? You're too weak!"
Upon hearing this, Tongtian was not angry. Instead, he closed his eyes slightly, and a powerful aura began to gather.
He slowly raised the Qingping Sword in his hand, surrounded by the four swords Zhuxian, Luxian, Immortal-Severing Sword, Immortal-Trapping Sword, each with its own distinct sword intent.
The Immortal Slaying Sword is incredibly sharp; a single slash of its sword energy can cleave through the void.
The Immortal Slaughtering Sword represents death; its sword energy is terrifying beyond measure, a vast and boundless aura of ultimate death.
The Immortal Trapping Sword represents desire. When the Trapping Immortal Trapping Sword Qi is activated, red light flashes everywhere. Those who have not Slaying Three Corpses will inevitably fall into the world of desire and will eventually be killed by the Immortal Trapping Sword Qi.
The Immortal Severing Sword is infinitely versatile; the word "Immortal" encapsulates its entirety. Its endless variations inspire despair, ultimately leading to the sword's slaying in the midst of despair.
The four sword intents and the Three Thousand Great Daos of Tongtian formed a sword array, and then the Shangqing Great Dao governed everything. All the power gathered on the Qingping Sword, and a vast power began to slowly rise.
This power gives people a sense of hope, yet it also feels capable of shattering everything, as if it wants to break free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao and achieve its own path.
Everyone who witnessed this was full of praise.
Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help but say, "Brother Dao, it seems we've fallen behind again. Whether it's Donghua or the Three Pure Ones, they're all ahead of us. The Late Stage Quasi-Saint are clearly very strong, but now they seem to be nothing at all."
Hong Yun nodded. This ordeal had indeed made him see many things clearly, and it seemed that this experience had helped him grow a lot.
Outside Longevity Mountain, Fuxi and the others had already arrived. Upon seeing Tongtian's sword, their eyes showed a moment of melancholy, but this was quickly replaced by boundless fighting spirit.
"It's almost time. I'll break through to the peak realm soon. As long as the Purple Mansion unifies the world, I'll be able to break through."
Longbo glanced at Fuxi, then at the people of Longevity Mountain, and sighed, "The Innate Deities of your generation are truly extraordinary. Your achievements have surpassed those of the ancient and Dragon-Han Period. This is the best of times, and the worst of times."
Fuxi disagreed, retorting, "Has it truly surpassed the ancient era?"
"In the ancient times, Dao Ancestor alone dominated the entire Primordial Wilderness, as did Demon Ancestor Luohu, and those earliest Innate Deities. Which of these people was simple? Perhaps the Innate Deities of this generation are indeed extraordinary, but they still have a long way to go."
What else could Longbo say? You've even brought up the Dao Ancestor, what else could I say but that you're right?
Above Longevity Mountain, Taiyi was finally moved after seeing Tongtian's sword strike. He sensed danger and the aura of death, and immediately attacked with all his might.
The Chaos Bell vibrated, unleashing a vast and powerful sealing force. Heaven and earth stood still, and spacetime twisted, instantly affecting Tongtian, who was accumulating power.
A suppressive force from the Great Dao prevented him from unleashing his full power and also interrupted his accumulation of strength.
But faced with this situation, Tongtian not only showed no fear, but seemed even more excited.
"Going against the will of Heaven and Jie Tian, how can there be no resistance? Taiyi, use all your other methods at once."
Tongtian's Great Dao Power was suppressed by thirty percent by the Chaos Bell, but his swordsmanship, the sword intent condensed on the Qingping Sword, became even sharper and more dangerous, as if it would cut through everything at any moment.
However, seeing that Taiyi on the other side no longer tried to stop him but instead focused on resisting the sword strike, Tongtian suddenly opened his eyes, and two beams of light, like sword light, illuminated billions of miles of territory.
"The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, one is hidden away, leaving a glimmer of hope for all living beings in the world."
"I, Tongtian, cultivate one of these escape techniques, defying the heavens, Jie Tian, to find this glimmer of hope for all living beings!"
"A sword that Jie Tian!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tongtian swung his Qingping Sword, unleashing a sword beam that pierced through billions of miles of sky, as if this single sword was the only thing in the world.
If the final Chaos Sword Qi of the Yuanshi was to draw out the Heavenly Dao Power and unite with Heaven, then the Tongtian was to sever the Heavenly Dao Power, draw upon the power of all living beings, and become one with it.
One against four, a battle against the heavens!
However, it must be said that Heavenly Dao is incredibly magnanimous, actually allowing such a path to exist. Isn't this just creating someone to oppose itself, to constantly cause it trouble?
Perhaps this is not the true will of Heavenly Dao, but rather the will of the Great Dao, after all, the Three Pure Ones originated from the Great Dao, from Pangu.
As this sword strike was unleashed, Tongtian's aura seemed to rise to a new level, and a flawless Dao Heart emerged, as if he were about to ascend to the Dao at this moment.
The path to Tongtian has been completed!
Faced with this sword, Taiyi showed no fear. He didn't even use the Chaos Bell. He swung the Taishi Sword in his hand and also unleashed a sword beam.
However, this sword carried the World-Destroying Power, the ultimate destructive power.
Meanwhile, in a grand hall, three people were watching the battle: Hongjun, Donghua, and Nuwa from the Purple Sky Palace.
That's right, Donghua and Nuwa have returned from the chaos. They arrived in the Yuanshi Primordial Wilderness the moment Yuanshi made his move.
"Master, I feel there's something wrong with Taiyi's rapid breakthrough to his current realm. There must be something fishy going on. Could you please enlighten me?"
In the Purple Sky Palace, Donghua voiced his doubts. Although he admitted that Taiyi was indeed extraordinary, it was absolutely impossible to reach this level.
Moreover, the destructive intent within that swordplay is not the Great Dao of Taiyi, yet the two appear quite harmonious.
Nuwa, standing nearby, frowned and asked, "Master, Taiyi's strange behavior reminds me of Shen Ni from the Volcano of Immortality. The terrifying destructive intent is indeed very similar. Is there any connection between the two?"
She had just used the Heavenly Dao to deduce, but she couldn't figure out anything strange about Taiyi, so this matter was definitely not simple.
You must know that she is Saint. In this Primordial Wilderness, if you want to truly calculate something, as long as there is a trace, you can basically calculate it, even during the Great Tribulation.
Hongjun glanced at the two of them and slowly said, "It seems you've both noticed something's amiss. This matter is indeed related to Shen Ni, but not so much, because Shen Ni is only a part of Zhi, albeit the largest one, while Taiyi received a different portion."
"However, the two have similarities, which is why Taiyi's strength has improved so rapidly. What I didn't expect was that the part of the origin that disappeared back then actually fell into Luohu's hands, and he eventually placed it on Taiyi. Now the two can be considered truly unified."
Donghua and Nuwa looked up and found that the other was also looking at them. Their eyes were filled with incomprehension, completely incomprehensible.
Qi, Shen Ni, Taiyi, Luohu!
What is the connection between these individuals, and who exactly are they? Even Hongjun felt a sense of apprehension.
But judging from Hongjun's expression, he didn't seem to want to say much. Meanwhile, the battle between Taiyi and Tongtian had come to an end, with no clear winner!
However, Tongtian was no longer able to fight. That one sword strike had exhausted all his energy, and he was no longer able to unleash another.
But Taiyi is perfectly fine!
"Donghua, Taiyi's fate and the fate of the Demon Race Heavenly Court have run out. Go and clean up the mess, and bring back the portion of Taiyi's original power. I will answer your questions then, so as not to reveal them now and affect your next battle!"
Although Donghua was puzzled, he still replied, "Yes, Master!"
P. S.: There should be one more chapter. I'm going to update 10,000 words today. I was supposed to finish it yesterday, but I got really sick and couldn't write anything. I had no inspiration at all, so I took the day off and am getting an IV drip at the hospital.
Double monthly votes needed, please give me some!
One last thing: I will make time to read all your comments.
Several people have said that it's slow and infrequent, and others have said that the writing is terrible.
I don't want to explain the first question. I've already talked too much about why I haven't Attain Hunyuan Dao Realm yet, so I don't want to say it again. This book isn't a mindless wish-fulfillment novel; it doesn't have those constant face-slapping moments.
As for the issue of updating too infrequently, I think it's already quite difficult. I'm a part-timer, updating 6,000 words daily, and I'm ranked on the power rankings. Updating one chapter a day is just part of the daily update count (power rankings are based on word count!).
Finally, I sincerely accept the criticism about my poor writing skills, because this is Wangyue's first time writing a novel, and my writing is indeed just average. I've also been taking time to read other Great God's books in order to improve my writing ability.
