Severely Wounded, Flees! Demon Ancestor Luohu Appears!

The void shattered, chaos extinguished.

Sun and moon lost their radiance, stars dimmed.

In an instant, a grey bead carrying the might of world destruction stirred up a violent Chaos Qi Flow behind Old Ancestor Yangmei, directly shattering his chest.

Then, an irresistible devouring force erupted, drawing Yangmei's essence blood, space origin, flesh, and primordial spirit continuously into the Chaos Bead.

"Immortal Dao, utterly extinguished!"

"Old Ancestor Yangmei, did you truly think I would fall so easily at your hands? This Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bead, is the real killing weapon!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Three Thousand Laws spread out, his injuries fully restored by the Power of Heavenly Dao.

On the other side, half of Old Ancestor Yangmei's body had been torn apart and vanished, drawn into the Chaos Bead.

His right hand gripped the Space Divine Staff tightly, his divine power clashing with the Chaos Bead's abilities. He refused to die so ignominiously, nor did he want his supreme treasure to fall into Dao Ancestor Hongjun's hands.

Within the vast Chaos Qi Flow, Dao Ancestor Hongjun traced strange divine patterns with his hands, mastering the Immortal Dao Principles and all other laws to form an ultimate attack.

In that moment, time and space stood still.

Boom!

Dao Ancestor Hongjun's killing blow landed on the remnants of Old Ancestor Yangmei's body. Blood and shattered bones flew everywhere, and even the Space Divine Staff trembled precariously.

"Hongjun, you despicable brat!"

"I never expected the Chaos Bead to be in your hands. A pity I've fallen today, but when I return to the Primordial World, I will make sure you have no place to die or be buried!"

"Instantaneous Teleportation, Shift of Stars!"

Old Ancestor Yangmei used the last of his divine power, burning his origin essence blood, and attempted to flee into the depths of chaos. The Space Divine Staff in his hand gleamed with silver light.

Seeing this, Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not relent.

The Heavenly Dao Golden Wheel hovered behind him, and the power of the Primordial World suddenly broke through the World Barrier, suppressing Old Ancestor Yangmei with crushing force. In an instant, it could destroy him.

The Chaos Bead also revealed even more terrifying might at this moment.

"I cannot die!"

"Enough. Space Divine Staff, fight in my stead!"

Old Ancestor Yangmei knew he had to escape, or there would be no chance of survival.

Gritting his teeth, his heart bleeding, he hurled the Space Divine Staff to block the divine might of Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the Chaos Bead, while he himself turned into fragments of space and fled into the chaos.

In an instant, Old Ancestor Yangmei's aura vanished, leaving only the Space Divine Staff suspended in the void. The Space Dao Principles it radiated caused countless worlds and dimensions to collapse.

"So Old Ancestor Yangmei has escaped after all. But with such severe injuries, his cultivation will likely fall to the early Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin stage. He won't cause trouble for a while."

"Still, the Space Divine Staff has fallen into my hands. This battle was not a loss!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun said slowly, guiding his Cloud Platform to land among the many three thousand gods. His eyes fell on East King Duke, who sat cross-legged in the void.

The latter seemed to sense something and opened his eyes.

Within his primordial spirit, countless spatial particles condensed, evolving into mysterious space runes containing the supreme Space Law.

"Greetings, Dao Ancestor. It seems you have won."

East King Duke said softly, bowing slightly to Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

After all, this battle had started because of him. Since Dao Ancestor Hongjun had stood up for him, East King Duke was naturally deeply grateful.

The Dao Ancestor was truly a man of honor!

"Your Space Law has reached minor success. Your comprehension truly makes me envious. Perhaps you can reach the same realm as Great God Pangu."

"In this great battle, Old Ancestor Yangmei fled severely wounded, and most of his space origin was devoured by the Chaos Bead. Therefore, you need not refine the Space Willow Tree for now, as that space origin alone will be enough to perfect your Space Law."

"As for the Space Divine Staff, since it is Old Ancestor Yangmei's Natal Supreme Treasure, even I cannot remove the Primordial Spirit Mark within the Chaos Restriction. So I have suppressed it inside the Chaos Bead. When you eventually slay Old Ancestor Yangmei or surpass him in cultivation, you will be able to refine it."

Dao Ancestor Hongjun's expression was kind, revealing a benevolent smile.

If not for East King Duke's Chaos Bead, he could only have defeated Old Ancestor Yangmei, not found a flaw to strike a fatal blow and force him to flee wounded.

Hearing this, East King Duke bowed again.

Even if the Space Divine Staff could not be refined, the principles of a Top-grade Chaos Spirit Treasure were still inexhaustible. For now, sealing it within the Chaos Bead would suffice.

With a casual wave, Dao Ancestor Hongjun sent the Chaos Bead into East King Duke's primordial spirit.

There was no greed for the treasure.

The Immortal Dao was a path of ethereal sanctity, and could not violate the Dao heart.

Moreover, East King Duke was someone he valued. Giving him opportunities was not enough; Dao Ancestor Hongjun would not do something to cut off his own foundation.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist East King Duke, on your minor success in Space Law. How about after the Dao Ancestor's third lecture at Purple Cloud Palace, you come to Buzhou Mountain to Discuss the Dao with me?"

Dijiang stepped forward.

In the Primordial World, only a few comprehended Space Law.

Aside from himself, there was Eastern Emperor Taiyi of the Demon Race, but Dijiang would not exchange insights with him.

Now, with East King Duke, Dijiang could mutually verify the Great Dao with him, adding to the insights gained from watching the battle between Old Ancestor Yangmei and Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Mastering the Space Law to Great Accomplishment was no problem!

"Great Good!"

East King Duke nodded slightly.

The Wu Race possessed something he valued, along with the mysterious Pangu Hall, which seemed to conceal a fateful opportunity left by Great God Pangu.

Before long.

The crowd followed Dao Ancestor Hongjun, heading toward the Purple Cloud Palace beyond the Chaos.

Deep within the Chaos.

Old Ancestor Yangmei barely managed to condense his form, his face twisted with venom.

"Fellow Daoist Yangmei, please hold your step!"

Just as he continued his escape, a figure in a black Daoist robe appeared, hands clasped behind his back, the aura of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin radiating from him.

"You?"

"Demon Ancestor Luohu!"

Old Ancestor Yangmei grew cautious, his eyes flashing with sharp light as he warily regarded the man before him.

White hair stirred by the wind, Demonic Claws tearing through time and space, demonic might shaking the cosmos and the three thousand realms.

The Ancestor of the Demon Path, Demon Ancestor Luohu!

One of the hidden instigators of the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation; the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was forged from the killing intent he gathered from the Three Races' great war, ultimately defeated by Dao Ancestor Hongjun and transformed into an Outer Realm Heavenly Demon.

"When did the mighty Space Demon God, Old Ancestor Yangmei, fall to such a miserable state—soul on the verge of shattering, strength less than an ant's?"

"Tell This Seat how you were defeated at Hongjun's hands?"

Demon Ancestor Luohu's voice was deep, his tone carrying an air of contempt for heaven and earth.

In an instant, Old Ancestor Yangmei's spirit flagged, the wound in his heart splitting open once more.

Bringing up the very sore spot—Demon Ancestor Luohu truly had a gift for it.

"Hmph!"

"The Demon Path Demon God is merely at the early-stage combat power of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin. Since being driven out of the Primordial World by Hongjun, you've indeed struggled to amount to anything!"

"This humble Daoist needs only ten thousand years to recover from his injuries. When that time comes, if you speak insolently again, I will surely banish you into the Space Turbulence."

A tiger brought low is bullied by dogs!

During the Chaos Era, in the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation, Old Ancestor Yangmei had never taken Demon Ancestor Luohu seriously, let alone now. If he made any suspicious move, he would not hesitate to burn his final Space Rune.

Seeing Old Ancestor Yangmei's fury, Demon Ancestor Luohu finally backed off.

"What? That brat Hongjun actually possesses the Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bead?"

"No wonder you fled in such grave injury. It seems This Seat's plan to destroy the Primordial World and recreate the Chaos must be postponed. With my current strength, I am no match for him either."

"How about we form an alliance and deal with that brat Hongjun together?"

Demon Ancestor Luohu let out a startled cry, then quickly regained his composure.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun possessed the Chaos Bead and his cultivation far surpassed his own. Demon Ancestor Luohu had no choice but to replan.

Hearing this!

Old Ancestor Yangmei shook his head.

Collaborating with a tiger was no different from seeking self-destruction.

"A forceful assault will not go unnoticed by the World Rules and the Primordial World's Heavenly Dao. Moreover, given Hongjun's temperament, he utterly disregards the Chaos Demon Gods. Thus, we can only rely on cunning."

"This humble Daoist can only say this: to defeat Hongjun, you must start from within the Primordial World. If the Primordial Era Beings destroy the world in their great war, then you and I can reap the benefits."

"I must go to the Land of Guixu to heal my wounds. You fend for yourself!"

Old Ancestor Yangmei offered a word of warning before hastily departing.

Leaving Demon Ancestor Luohu to ponder amidst the Chaos Qi Flow, the surrounding Void turbulence unable to stir him in the slightest, while his demonic might, boundless and vast, annihilated all.

"It seems this is the only way. This Seat should also activate that pawn left behind in the Primordial World, to plunge the grand momentum of heaven and earth into even greater chaos and turmoil."

"But is Old Ancestor Yangmei's injury truly that severe? He needs to go to the Land of Guixu. With his Top-grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, the Space Divine Staff, he could gradually recover!"

"Could it be...?"

Demon Ancestor Luohu, slow to realize.

The Land of Guixu was the birthplace of the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods, where the Three Thousand Great Daos were extremely dense, accessible only to Chaos Demon Gods.

Thinking this far, Demon Ancestor Luohu finally understood that Old Ancestor Yangmei's Space Divine Staff had also been taken.

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

What are Time and Space, Fate and Karma?

Of the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods, the Demon Path shall reign supreme!
