Primordial Wilderness: I Repeatedly Offered Poisonous Schemes! Houtu Advised Me to Calm Down

"However, for now, this should be the extent of it."

"Eastern Emperor Taiyi has made his move. With his Quasi-Saint cultivation and an Innate Supreme Treasure, he can hold off the Pangu Great Hall for an instant—and that instant is enough for Di Jun to return. With the support of many Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals, the situation shouldn't deteriorate too badly."

"The Wu Clan will likely raise a great commotion, interrupting Eastern Emperor Taiyi's refinement. After a few such disruptions, it will be enough for the Heavenly Dao to grow dissatisfied with the Demon Race's Heavenly Court. After all, those who break through will only keep increasing. Once time runs out, the Demon Race won't be able to withstand the pressure and will have no choice but to initiate the tribulation first."

Fuxi made his judgment.

Nuwa nodded beside him and added in agreement.

"With this opportunity lost, tribulations will have to be sent down repeatedly in the future. Refining the Heavenly Tribulation Dao Fruit will become far more difficult."

"It seems the Demon Race has lost another round. Brother, your earlier intention to join the Demon Race can be put on hold for now."

Fuxi looked somewhat helpless, a bitter smile crossing his face. He had no idea why his sister was so resistant to the idea of him joining the Demon Race.

Fuxi's desire to join the Demon Race was not a recent whim; he had already hinted at it to Nuwa long ago.

That was precisely why Nuwa chose this moment to once again dampen her brother's aspirations.

Fuxi had delved deeply into the Heavenly Fate Dao. He had no aversion to joining a faction—in fact, it came with considerable benefits. Coupled with the promises made by Di Jun and the others, his interest was piqued.

But Nuwa saw things differently. She had a clearer view. The current conflict between the Wu and Demon Races was reminiscent of the Dragon-Han Great Tribulation's three clans. The risk was too high—why take the gamble?

Fuxi naturally understood his sister's concerns. But he was Fuxi, one of the Great Divine Ability Users, an Innate Godly Being.

He carried a certain pride and self-confidence, believing he could snatch a chestnut from the fire.

That was the rift between the siblings.

Yet, just as Fuxi was about to argue further, the situation in the Heavenly Court suddenly shifted dramatically.

Countless Great Divine Ability Users' expressions flickered with alarm.

"This is—!"

"Trouble!"

Chapter 13: Dao Fruit Backlash, Heavy Injury to Eastern Emperor Taiyi (Beg for Flowers and Monthly Tickets)

A Quasi-Saint-level Great Sun Golden Crow resonated with the Sun Star. Its Quasi-Saint laws, pushed to their extreme, drove the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell.

Clang—

Layer upon layer of restrictions awakened. An aura of world-destroying might erupted to its peak.

The bell's shockwave surged, nearly freezing time and space, reforging Earth Wind Water Fire.

Before they even made contact, the descending Pangu Great Hall was already affected.

Though the Pangu Great Hall remained unmatched, freezing the bell's shockwaves wherever it passed, the Twelve Ancestral Shamans' laws around it reacted violently.

As if sensing some terrifying threat.

At the very center of their clash, the void itself dried up, and chaos was reborn.

All manner of chaotic phenomena even showed signs of splitting apart.

Threads of radiance resembled the vision of a world's creation!

This clash was undoubtedly the pinnacle of combat in the current Primordial Wilderness!

Even if Eastern Emperor Taiyi was slightly weaker, with his Innate Supreme Treasure and his Quasi-Saint cultivation—unrivaled across the Primordial Wilderness—

He was still enough to shake heaven and earth.

At the very least, he could not be crushed outright by the Pangu Great Hall.

Yet, just as many Great Divine Ability Users assumed the Pangu Great Hall would be momentarily halted, leading to a reversal—

Suddenly, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, who was pouring all his power into the Chaos Bell, changed expression drastically.

The Chaos Bell, which had been erupting at its peak, suddenly let out another urgent chime.

But this time, it was directed inward, not outward.

Boom—

An endless tide of calamity exploded from within the Chaos Bell in an instant. Wind Calamity, Fire Calamity, Water Calamity, Thunder Tribulation, Lightning Tribulation, Nine Calamities—countless disasters and tribulations erupted in a single moment.

A terrifying backlash instantly sent the Chaos Bell flying.

Tribulation light burst forth, illuminating the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

The six Heavenly Tribulation Dao Fruits, originally at the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal level, surged as if fed some great tonic.

They leaped straight to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal level.

The six great tribulation Dao Fruits resonated with chaos.

They nearly transformed into a dreadfully ominous tribulation phenomenon.

Formless and imageless, the Great Dao trembled in terror.

It was as if the Heavenly Tribulation Great Dao had been enraged, erupting with overwhelming force at this moment.

The six Dao Fruits rebelled at this critical juncture, catching Eastern Emperor Taiyi completely off guard.

Most importantly, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation Great Dao surpassed everyone's imagination. They had thought it could at most combine into a single Zenith Heaven Dao Fruit.

But in this moment—

"This is a Quasi-Saint level Great Dao!"

A Great Divine Ability User cried out in shock, unable to remain seated any longer.

The entire Primordial Wilderness was shaken!

They had assumed the Heavenly Tribulation Great Dao, newly established, would not be too powerful. But now, it turned out that the authority granted to the Heavenly Court was only a small part; the true Great Dao lay hidden beneath the iceberg.

"Yes, we should have guessed it long ago!"

"How could a mere Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal mete out tribulations to the entire Primordial Wilderness? Such means of calamity were never meant to be entrusted to another. Tribulations operate through the Heavenly Dao's own workings. The authority held by the Heavenly Court is merely a sliver, confirmed in the Court's own duties!"

Many Great Divine Ability Users' minds raced, wisdom deducing, and some understanding dawned.

But almost immediately after that understanding, they cast pitying gazes toward Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

The innate Eastern Emperor Taiyi, with his Quasi-Saint cultivation and Innate Supreme Treasure, had forcibly suppressed the Heavenly Tribulation Dao Fruit. Even if the Dao Fruit was not the entirety of the Heavenly Tribulation Great Dao, it could not easily draw the full backlash of the Great Dao itself.

Yet now, because he was distracted by the fight against the Wu Clan, the Heavenly Tribulation Dao Fruit had gained a chance to catch its breath.

One move affects the whole.

A Quasi-Saint level Great Dao backlash would be enough to give any Quasi-Saint a hard time even in ordinary circumstances, let alone now.

It happened exactly as all the Great Divine Ability Users had thought.

The Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell, was caught in a fire in its own backyard. It was sent flying, and its ultimate strike shattered, dissipating most of its power.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi had no time to react.

A torrent of all kinds of disasters and calamities slammed straight into his face.

A Quasi-Saint level calamity would make even a Quasi-Saint tremble.

In that instant, Eastern Emperor Taiyi was engulfed by tribulation. Half of his cultivation was stripped away just to resist it.

And in the next moment—

The Pangu Great Hall crashed down.

The twelve Ancestral Shamans' eyes opened and closed. Eleven laws at the Great Divine Ability User level and one law at the Quasi-Saint level descended with a roar.

Boom—

The entire space was instantly reduced to powder.

The four spirits of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire scattered in all directions.

A waterfall of chaos cascaded down.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was instantly forced into his true form. His colossal body was blasted apart, turning into countless drops of essence blood.

Even though he rapidly regenerated, he was still assaulted by layer upon layer of laws, slain again and again.

In a single instant—

Thousands of killings.

With the suppression of tribulation from the six encircling Dao Fruits.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was slain over a thousand times in that one instant, his origin nearly drained dry.

One law after another pierced through and remained eternally lodged in his flesh.

The hundred-million-zhang true body of the Great Sun Golden Crow was covered in falling feathers, half of its body completely mangled.

It had even lost one leg.
