In the Chaos Epoch, two calamity epochs remained before the final great calamity.

Little Black and Little White were still sprawled over Feng Yue's arm, asleep.

Feng Yue urged Clover to put more force into it. A lousy egg had been boiled for over a hundred calamity epochs and still was not cooked. What a waste of time.

The Chaos Calamity was about to pass, and the time for Pangu to answer the calamity by cleaving open the heavens was fast approaching.

"Senior, there's a crack in the egg!"

"That's normal. Keep boiling it!"

Feng Yue waved his hand, then walked toward the Chaos Enlightenment Tree.

At this moment, the Chaos Enlightenment Tree was fully ripe, having reached its most succulent and delicious season. The twelve Purple-Gold Dao Fruits upon it contained supreme Daoist magic and divine power, carrying an immensely powerful allure for Demon Gods cultivating the three thousand Great Dao laws.

However, with Feng Yue guarding this place, no Demon God dared act so outrageously.

"Five Elements, go up and pluck every Enlightenment Fruit!"

"This Venerable Self will complete my comprehension of the three thousand Great Dao laws to the utmost limit, gaining the foundation to carve out an Inner Chaos and battle the Great Dao!"

"Can Your Excellency swallow so many Chaos Enlightenment Fruits all by yourself?"

If nothing unexpected happened, then something unexpected was bound to happen.

At a time like this, the appearance of such a voice put Feng Yue in a very foul mood.

With a casual glance, he saw through the chaos of time and space and located every Chaos Demon God lying in ambush nearby.

"Interesting. The Enlightenment Fruits merely ripened, yet they drew so many Chaos Demon Gods here!"

"But with your strength, what can you possibly do?"

"Even if This Venerable Self stands right here, I dare say none of you would dare come up and snatch them!"

Feng Yue's exceedingly unrestrained words stunned all the Chaos Demon Gods.

The Chaos Demon Gods gathered in the shadows numbered not three thousand, but at least eight hundred.

All of them had been drawn here by the incomparably rich aura of the Chaos Enlightenment Fruit Tree.

Because one fruit represented one level of the Dao Venerable realm.

One fruit could instantly create a peak powerhouse.

Among the three thousand Demon Gods, those who had advanced into the Dao Venerable realm could be counted on one's fingers, numbering no more than twenty.

The rest merely lingered around the Limitless Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. Chaos Demon Gods ranked below fifteen hundred were still striving to reach the utmost limit at the Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal level.

Tell me, what Demon God would not be consumed by greed upon seeing an Enlightenment Fruit like this?

"Arrogant brat, which Chaos Demon God might you be? Do you dare announce your name?"

A burly wild ape, holding a black divine staff, sauntered forward. His body radiated the terrifying aura of the third level of the Limitless Primordial Zenith Heaven Dao Venerable realm, his pressure blanketing the land.

"Chaos Demon Ape, nothing more than someone Pangu will tear into four pieces. You still dare spout such shameless boasts!"

Feng Yue smiled disdainfully, then looked toward all the Chaos Demon Gods around him and shouted provocatively, "Any other Demon Gods who want a share of the pie, step forward!"

With those words, all eight hundred Chaos Demon Gods revealed themselves.

Every one of them was a colossal being stretching billions of miles, domineering and mighty.

They were proud and arrogant. They were noble and elegant. Their pride soared to the heavens. They were the favored children of the Great Dao, born with command over the Chaos arts of the world.

But now, Feng Yue would teach them how to be Demon Gods.

First, the gunshot struck the bird that stuck out its head.

"Little Black, go cripple this Chaos Demon Ape. Remember, only cripple him. Don't kill him, or it would be troublesome if the Great Dao sent down Order Chains to punish us!"

"Yes, Master!"

Sending a mere mount out to fight was already the greatest courtesy Feng Yue could offer these Chaos Demon Gods.

The mighty Chaos Demon Ape was also a top-tier powerhouse among the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods. Calling him the top student of an elite class would not be underrating him in the slightest.

But Little Black and Little Black were king-level Chaos ferocious beasts. After Feng Yue's many years of nurturing, sustained by countless Chaos spirit fruits, spirit water, and holy water, they had already reached the eighth level of the Limitless Primordial Zenith Heaven Dao Venerable realm.

There was no one better than Little Black to teach the Chaos Demon Ape a lesson.

"You dare send out a mere beast to fight me? You fool who knows neither life nor death!"

The Chaos Demon Ape was furious. Never before had he suffered such humiliation from one of his own kind.

Yet today, someone had actually sent a mount to fight him. It was the greatest shame and humiliation!

The greatest shame and humiliation indeed!

"Don't be angry. Your ears are practically breathing fire!"

"How about this? If you defeat This Venerable Self's mount, This Venerable Self will tell you my identity and Daoist title. How does that sound?"

After hearing this, the Chaos Demon Ape snorted coldly and strode through the air with his divine staff in hand.

Behind him, fierce astral winds howled, ceaselessly whipping his black-gold fur.

"Today, I'll teach you, you brat who knows neither the height of heaven nor the depth of earth, a lesson!"

"You insolent monkey are not worthy of insulting Master!"

As the two beasts fought, Feng Yue was just about to enjoy the show.

He had met the Chaos Demon Ape before. With a flick of his sleeve, Feng Yue had sent him flying across ten thousand miles of time.

If Feng Yue had not given him face, it would not have been as simple as effortlessly erasing him once back then.

"But this little monkey truly has a poor memory. It has only been a little over a hundred calamity epochs, yet he has already forgotten This Venerable Self's appearance!"

Thinking of this, Feng Yue felt that he would have to use a bit more force when teaching this monkey a lesson later.

Five Elements Demon God climbed the Chaos Enlightenment Tree, plucked every fruit, and carried them over to Feng Yue.

"Enlightenment Fruits?"

The many Demon Gods could not help but feel their mouths water at the sight.

"Fellow Daoist, as fellow Chaos Demon Gods, may I exchange my companion Chaos spirit treasure for one?"

The speaker was the Yin-Yang Demon God, a being even stronger than the Five Elements Demon God. He ranked only below the five ultimate Demon Gods. In Chaos, he could be called the leader among ordinary Demon Gods.

Feng Yue saw through his realm at a glance. He was at the peak of the ninth level of the Limitless Primordial Zenith Heaven Dao Venerable realm. He had truly ascended to the ultimate limit; his potential had been exhausted. Without a great opportunity, his path of seeking the Dao would end here for this lifetime.

"Granted!"

Feng Yue waved a hand and tossed out a Chaos Enlightenment Fruit. He liked cooperating with polite Demon Gods.

As for Chaos Demon Apes like that one, it was enough to give them a beating and then throw them out.

Just like the wild monkeys on Mount Emei—utterly disgusting.

The Yin-Yang Demon God caught the Enlightenment Fruit with both hands and carefully inspected it several times. Seeing that there was no deception, he laughed.

At once, however, a Yin-Yang Gourd flew out. It was a supreme Chaos spirit treasure, a treasure among the many top-grade Chaos spirit treasures.

"Fellow Daoist, I can scarcely wait to refine this Chaos Enlightenment Fruit. We shall part ways here today. Farewell!"

Having obtained the thing he had thirsted for, the Yin-Yang Demon God left with a face full of delight after bidding farewell to the many Demon Gods.

Feng Yue did not stop him. Exchanging one Enlightenment Fruit for a top-grade Chaos spirit treasure was well worth it.

At present, Feng Yue had reached the peak of the twelfth level of the Limitless Primordial Zenith Heaven Dao Venerable realm. These Enlightenment Fruits had no use beyond enhancing his comprehension of the three thousand Great Dao laws; they could no longer raise his cultivation realm.

The Creation Demon God swallowed hard. Looking toward the Yin-Yang Demon God, she could not help feeling emotional. "I used to be wealthy too, until one day I was...!"

At that thought, she felt somewhat wronged.

Turning her head, she looked again at the Five Elements Demon God. He was foolish and simple-minded, yet lived in endless joy without a single complaint.

"Don't worry. You can only eat one of these fruits. The second one is useless!"

"This Venerable Self has saved one for each of you!"

Feng Yue smiled and took out five of the Enlightenment Fruits, placing them within his boundless time and space.

The next moment, facing the many Chaos Demon Gods, he smiled. "There are still six Enlightenment Fruits. Those fated to obtain them may have them!"

"However, this fate must be purchased with top-grade spirit treasures. Do you all understand?"

In the Chaos Epoch, two calamity epochs remained before the final great calamity.

Little Black and Little White were still sprawled over Feng Yue's arm, asleep.

Feng Yue waved a hand and tossed out a Chaos Enlightenment Fruit. He liked cooperating with polite Demon Gods.

As for Chaos Demon Apes like that one, it was enough to give them a beating and then throw them out.

Like the wild monkeys on Mount Emei—repulsive to behold.

The Yin-Yang Demon God accepted the Chaos Enlightenment Fruit with both hands and carefully inspected it several times. Seeing that there was no trickery, he laughed.

Then the Yin-Yang Gourd flew out. It was a top-tier Chaos spirit treasure, a true gem even among the finest Chaos spirit treasures.

"Fellow Daoist, I can hardly wait to refine this Chaos Enlightenment Fruit. Let us part here today. Farewell!"

Having obtained the coveted item, the Yin-Yang Demon God departed in high spirits after bidding farewell to the many Demon Gods.

Feng Yue did not stop him. One Enlightenment Fruit in exchange for a supreme Chaos spirit treasure was well worth it.

At this moment, he had reached the peak of the twelfth layer of the Primordial Limitless Great Dao Venerable realm. Unless they could deepen his comprehension of the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws, these Enlightenment Fruits were of no use to him. They could no longer raise his cultivation realm.

The Creation Demon God swallowed hard as she watched the Yin-Yang Demon God, a sigh rising in her heart. "I used to be wealthy too, until one day I was...!"

Thinking of that, she felt somewhat aggrieved.

Turning her head, she looked again at the Five Elements Demon God. He was dazed and foolish, yet his life was full of joy, with nothing to complain about.

"Don't worry. You can only eat one of these fruits. A second one will be useless!"

"I've kept one for each of you!"

Feng Yue smiled, took out five of the Enlightenment Fruits, and placed them within his boundless spacetime.

The next moment, facing the many Chaos Demon Gods, he could not help but smile. "There are still six Enlightenment Fruits left. Those fated to obtain them shall have them!"

"However, this fate must be purchased with supreme spirit treasures. Do you all understand?"
