Rahu Self-Destructed, Chen Xuan Stirred Things Up

"Could this jade blade be part of the Fortune Jade Disk? Could Pangu have even deliberately removed it himself?"

Chen Xuan's sudden appearance made Hongjun breathe a sigh of relief. The last trace of worry in his heart vanished with it.

However, when he saw Chen Xuan looking toward the Fortune Jade Disk, a new worry arose within him.

But when he thought of how Chen Xuan would soon die here, Hongjun had nothing left to fear. He immediately spoke to Chen Xuan.

"Fellow Daoist Azure Lotus, you have arrived at just the right time. Let us break Rahu's Immortal-Slaying Formation together and restore peace to the Primordial World."

As he spoke, Hongjun charged directly at Rahu, tossing the Immortal-Slaying Gate to Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan could not help but feel helpless. He could only summon the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda to withstand the attacks of the Immortal-Slaying Sword light.

But Chen Xuan was not foolish enough to actually retrieve the Immortal-Slaying Sword. Even if he could take it down, the outcome would surely be near-certain death.

All he needed to do now was fish in troubled waters. As long as he could hold back the Immortal-Slaying Sword and prevent it from attacking the others, his task would be complete.

The instant Rahu saw Chen Xuan appear, the smile on his face vanished completely. His heart even turned cold.

"Hongjun, you old bastard, I never expected you to bring him here. It seems that I, Rahu, am destined to die today. In that case, do not blame me for making you all accompany me to the grave."

As he spoke, Rahu summoned the God-Slaying Spear and drew the boundless demonic qi from Mount Sumeru into it.

In the blink of an eye, the God-Slaying Spear reached its limit and erupted with power capable of destroying heaven and earth, exploding directly above Mount Sumeru.

The destructive force produced by the explosion of an innate killing supreme treasure was beyond what words could describe.

In that instant, more than half of Mount Sumeru and the spiritual veins of the west were destroyed. Countless heavenly treasures and innate spiritual roots vanished into nothingness.

Who knew how many western living beings were reduced to ashes by the God-Slaying Spear's explosion.

Rahu and Hongjun, who had been closest to the God-Slaying Spear, did not lose their lives directly to its explosion, but they were both in an utterly miserable state.

As for the Heaven-and-Earth Ancestor and the Yin-Yang Ancestor, they were blasted into vomiting blood. Fortunately, they used their last scraps of strength to remove the Immortal-Trapping Sword and the Immortal-Slaughtering Sword above their heads.

Yang Mei Ancestor, meanwhile, used the laws of space to evade the attack caused by the God-Slaying Spear's explosion. At the same time, he removed the Immortal-Exterminating Sword above his head.

As for Chen Xuan, he did not hesitate in the slightest to summon the Thirty-Six-Rank Fortune Green Lotus, blocking this heaven-destroying attack.

Seeing this, Rahu ground his teeth in hatred and began drawing the boundless demonic qi into his body.

Hongjun immediately realized something was wrong. He knew Rahu intended to self-destruct and drag him down with him.

Without hesitation, he retreated. In the blink of an eye, he had fled more than a million li away from Mount Sumeru.

Yang Mei Ancestor and Chen Xuan simultaneously used the Great Dao's laws of space to leave this dangerous place.

This made Rahu's eyes split with rage, but he was already on the verge of self-destruction and could not stop himself at all.

"I hate this! I never thought that I, Rahu, would end up like this!"

"This is all thanks to you, Hongjun, you old bastard. Remember this: even if I die and my Dao vanishes, you will never know peace."

"Great Dao above, I, Rahu, swear this Great Dao oath. I offer my physical body and primordial spirit as sacrifice to become the Outer Heavenly Demon Domain. Whenever cultivators of the Primordial World take form, break through, or attain the Dao, inner demons shall arise. All who fail to overcome their inner demons shall fall into the Outer Heavenly Demon Domain. One day, when the Dao declines and demons rise, when the Dao rises one foot and demons rise ten feet, the Demon Domain shall return."

As Rahu made his Great Dao oath, his soul and physical body exploded together, utterly destroying the remaining half of the western spiritual veins.

It even caused the entire western region to sink no less than a thousand zhang below the other three regions of the Primordial World. Boundless baleful qi surged into the west, forming a sealed world known as the Outer Heavenly Demon Domain.

Although Hongjun acted in time and sealed the Outer Heavenly Demon Domain beneath Mount Sumeru, boundless karma was still created, and all of it fell directly upon Hongjun.

Although Hongjun had long expected that he would be tainted by karma because of this, he had not expected Rahu to pull such a stunt, multiplying the karma he bore severalfold.

"There is no other way now. At least my planning was not in vain. Even if I have been tainted with this boundless karma, it was worth it."

A reluctant, helpless smile appeared on Hongjun's lips. After all, he believed that aside from himself, Chen Xuan and the others would surely have died in Rahu's self-destruction.

Even after escaping a million li away, the power of Rahu's self-destruction had still sent his blood and qi churning.

Yet at that moment, Yang Mei Ancestor suddenly appeared beside Hongjun and cupped his hands in greeting.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Hongjun. You have finally eliminated Rahu, this scourge, for the Primordial World."

When Hongjun saw Yang Mei Ancestor suddenly appear, a cold glint appeared in his eyes. He even secretly tightened his grip on the Pangu Banner.

Yang Mei Ancestor instantly sensed a wave of killing intent rushing toward him. Although Hongjun quickly concealed it, Yang Mei Ancestor had felt it clearly.

Could Hongjun be planning to eliminate me as well, leaving himself as the only surviving Chaos God or Demon in the entire Primordial World?

Yes. Only then can he truly control the Primordial World and become the ruler of this world. We are destined to become his stepping stones.

At that thought, a fine layer of cold sweat appeared on Yang Mei Ancestor's forehead. At the same time, he prepared an escape route for himself.

He immediately said to Hongjun, "Now that the affairs of the Primordial World have been settled, I intend to travel through Chaos. Perhaps I will never return to the Primordial World."

"Let today be my farewell to Fellow Daoist Hongjun. Whether we shall ever meet again will depend on fate."

Only when he heard that Yang Mei Ancestor intended to leave the Primordial World did Hongjun put away the Pangu Banner in his hand. With a reluctant expression, he said, "The entire Primordial World is in ruins and awaits reconstruction. If Fellow Daoist Yang Mei leaves now, will you not be leaving this mess entirely to me?"

Yang Mei Ancestor smiled and shook his head. "The capable should bear more burdens. I have always been carefree, and I cannot endure such toil."

Seeing that Yang Mei Ancestor was determined to leave, Hongjun could not help but sigh. Just as he was about to offer a few more polite words, he felt the space beside him ripple.

Then Chen Xuan stepped out of a spatial rift. In each hand, he carried a Daoist.

"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, it is not that I want to criticize you, but when Rahu was about to self-destruct and drag us down with him, how could you flee for your own lives without caring whether the others lived or died?"

"Fortunately, I acted in time and saved Fellow Daoist Heaven-and-Earth and Fellow Daoist Yin-Yang. Otherwise, the two of them would surely have died today."
