Prehistoric World: I Wreak Havoc on the Three Sects, and You Won't Split Up?

Now, his foundation was twice as strong, and his origin a full ten times stronger!

Across the entire Prehistoric World, his foundation could probably rank among the top tier!

"If I could do this a few more times, maybe my foundation could transform into... a Chaos Godfiend's foundation!"

Xuan Dan's heart trembled as a shocking possibility occurred to him.

His uniqueness meant he could use heaven and earth as a furnace, constantly elevating his foundation.

Perhaps one day, he could surpass the limits of the Prehistoric World and reach the level of a Chaos Godfiend!

Meanwhile, during the thousands of years Xuan Dan spent in seclusion.

The other disciples of the Three Sects were also preparing intensively for the Three Sects Grand Competition.

San Xiao spent their days discussing the Dao, while the Seven Attendant Immortals would spar whenever they had nothing else to do.

The Chan Sect disciples visited each other, learning from others' strengths to compensate for their own weaknesses.

None of them wanted to disgrace their sect in the Three Sects Grand Competition.

There were quite a few disciples with this mindset.

Among them, the most prominent were Xuan Du of the Ren Sect, Guang Chengzi of the Chan Sect, and Duobao of the Jie Sect.

Xuan Du considered himself the senior brother of the Xuan Sect and believed he should set an example for all his junior brothers.

Guang Chengzi, on the other hand, didn't want to embarrass his Master and was confident that his talents were no less than anyone else's.

Duobao only followed the rebellious sword intent in his heart, walking his own path of the Great Dao, challenging his fellow disciples with his sword.

But cultivation was like sailing against the current—if you didn't advance, you fell back, and it was fraught with difficulties.

In his cave dwelling, Guang Chengzi wore a troubled expression.

"I'm just one step away from breaking through to Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, so why can't I comprehend it?"

Duobao, in seclusion, was equally dejected.

"I've already glimpsed the path to Great Luo through my sword, but the time is just too short. To solidify this sliver of insight, ten thousand years might not be enough!"

Even with saints teaching and guiding them.

Comprehension was never something that could be achieved overnight.

At the same time, the image of their opponent going all out when breaking through the encirclement of Strange Beasts flashed through their minds.

Guang Chengzi gave a helpless smile and shook his head.

"Junior Brother Duobao's sword path cuts through the nine heavens. Without breaking through to Primordial Unity, he'll be hard to defeat."

Duobao sighed softly, a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

"Senior Brother Guang Chengzi keeps his true strength hidden, with too many concealed killing moves. Without reaching Primordial Unity, I have no confidence against him."

As if struck by a sudden flash of inspiration, both of them brightened and looked toward the same direction.

Eight Sceneries Palace, Xuan Dan's Mansion.

If they had Xuan Dan's pills to help, they would definitely break through to Primordial Unity this time!

But then, thinking about the side effects of his pills...

Chapter 39: The Baldness Breakthrough Pill, Two Saints of the West Arrive at Kunlun Mountain!

Cultivation knows no time, and the Prehistoric World marks no years.

A thousand years had already passed since the Three Sects disciples returned to their mountains.

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and thunder roared from time to time.

Xuan Dan formed hand seals, his eyes fixed on the Nine Dragon Cauldron.

The Blazing Heaven Fiery Flame suddenly dissipated, the furnace lid flew open, and the fragrance of pills wafted out.

Heavenly Thunder descended in a frenzy, absorbed by the pill, which shed its final impurities.

A crystalline pill condensed into shape and landed in Xuan Dan's hand.

This pill formula was called the Breakthrough Pill, obtained from a previous system critical hit reward. It could help people break through realms and more easily shatter bottlenecks.

At the same time, the system's voice suddenly rang in his mind.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for refining the Breakthrough Pill. Efficacy increased tenfold. Side effect: Baldness (duration: five thousand years)!]

The pill's tribulation caused quite a stir, drawing the attention of many disciples on Kunlun Mountain to stop and watch.

Among them, the two most intense gazes belonged to Guang Chengzi and Duobao.

Guang Chengzi's eyes held a glimmer of hope, but also lingering hesitation.

The image of Huanglong turning into a Loli kept flashing through his mind.

Yet, sensing the rich fragrance of the pill coming from Xuan Dan's direction, his gaze finally hardened, and he clenched his fists.

"Forget it. To break through to Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, a price must be paid after all."

With that, he put on an expression of one facing death, concealed his aura and form, crafted a unique black robe, and set out under the cover of night.

At the same time, Duobao, sensing that Xuan Dan had emerged from seclusion, rose directly.

"Face is so fragile before strength."

"With Junior Brother's pills to aid me, I will surely break through to Taiyi."

"Then at the Three Sects Grand Competition, when I seize the top spot, I'd like to see who dares to speak ill of me!"

With that, Duobao concealed his form, masked his aura, and likewise crafted a black robe, setting out under cover of night.

Two unidentified figures in black thus met unexpectedly before the gates of Xuan Dan's cave dwelling.

Duobao froze at the sight of the other black-robed figure, a thought stirring in his heart.

"Great minds think alike. I wonder which fellow disciple this is."

He extended his divine sense, seeking to discern the other's identity.

Yet he found his sense blocked, and was somewhat startled.

Guang Chengzi performed the same maneuver, equally astonished.

Both inwardly sighed in admiration.

Thank goodness they had prepared in advance, crafting a black robe capable of blocking divine sense probing.

If someone else had stumbled upon them, wouldn't the whole of Kunlun Mountain be buzzing with gossip?

The two stood locked in stalemate for a long while, until Duobao, losing patience, altered his voice to inquire.

"Might I ask which fellow disciple this is, and why you are here so late at night?"

Guang Chengzi, sweat beading on his brow, changed his voice to reply.

"This Humble Daoist is a close friend of Junior Brother Xuan Dan. Hearing he had emerged from seclusion, I came especially to pay a visit."

"What a coincidence. This Humble Daoist as well."

"..."

The words fell to the ground, impossible to pick back up.

And so the two continued their standoff in this awkward atmosphere.

Boom!!!

The gates of Xuan Dan's Mansion suddenly swung open.

Xuan Dan, long in seclusion, wanted to take a breath of fresh air under the night sky.

The moment he raised his eyes to step out, he froze in place.

He looked back and forth at the two black-clad figures before him, a ridiculous thought suddenly springing to mind.

Wait—had Kunlun Mountain been invaded by thieves?

Xuan Dan tested the waters with a question.

"Are you two playing some kind of novel game here?"

Once again, it was Duobao who lost his composure, letting out a string of laughs to mask his earlier embarrassment.

Meanwhile, Guang Chengzi hurriedly sidled up.

"Tch... I wonder which junior brother tried to pull this trick on me."

"Good thing I came too, or else you'd have beaten me to it!"

He too quickly approached, pitching his voice high.

"Junior Brother, pay it no mind. It's nothing important."

Duobao shot Guang Chengzi a meaningful glance.

Before the Three Sects Grand Competition had even begun, the two were already on guard against each other.

Xuan Dan, somewhat at a loss, was escorted back into his cave dwelling by the two senior brothers.

"What exactly do you two senior brothers mean by this?"

He had stepped out to see two black-clad figures—the visual shock was immense, and his mind was still struggling to catch up.

Until Guang Chengzi and Duobao both spoke at once, smiling.

"This Humble Daoist wishes to exchange a treasure with Junior Brother for one of your pills. What does Junior Brother think?"

Xuan Dan broke into a smile, drawing out a long "Oh..."

"Since you two senior brothers are interested, This Humble Daoist naturally agrees."

With that, he handed over the Breakthrough Pill he had just refined.

"This pill is called the Breakthrough Pill. Swallowing it will help you break through your current realm and shatter your bottleneck. You two senior brothers, just say how many you need!"
