Slaying Luo Hou, Treasures in Hand

"Since you wish to witness the wonders of the Primordial Unity, I shall grant your wish."

Surrendering without a fight was not Luo Hou's nature.

Back then, he had at least been a Chaos Fiendgod of Pangu's generation. After reincarnating, he had also become one of the first great powers of the Primordial World. How could he be intimidated by a few words from a junior?

As soon as Luo Hou finished speaking, the Godslayer Spear resting across his knees suddenly soared into the air.

The Godslayer Spear had been formed from the roots of the Genesis Azure Lotus. It was a heavenly Dao treasure that did not harm the physical body, instead specializing in attacking the primordial spirit. Its killing power even surpassed that of innate supreme treasures.

Even Saints would not dare ignore it.

Endless killing intent spread out, shrouding the entire Demon Realm and stirring the demonic qi into turmoil. It even made Wuchen's primordial spirit ache faintly.

"Worthy of being the Primordial World's foremost killing treasure. It is already this terrifying upon merely revealing its edge."

Wuchen could not help but praise it.

"Die!"

With that single word from Luo Hou, the Godslayer Spear became a streak of blood-red light and shot straight at Wuchen's face. Terrifying killing intent erupted in an instant.

"Heh."

Wuchen chuckled softly. The power of his origin roared through his body, and the Purifying Divine Light around him grew increasingly brilliant, instantly dissolving the dense demonic qi nearby.

Then, with a light flick of his wrist—

The Yuantu and Abi Swords traced a cold arc through the air before him. White light flared across their blades as the Purifying Divine Light merged with their sharp edge.

The sword momentum was like thunder and lightning, striking directly at the Godslayer Spear.

Purification, slaughter, massacre, and sword Dao—the four great laws merged into one sword strike.

"Boom!"

Scarlet light tore through layer after layer of black mist. The terrifying aftershock swept outward, annihilating all demonic qi within hundreds of thousands of miles and causing the Demon Realm to tremble.

Before the scarlet glow could fade, an even more dazzling white light suddenly erupted.

"Not good!"

Luo Hou's expression changed drastically. With a thought, he tried to recall the Godslayer Spear.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The Law of Purification erupted, forcibly purifying the divine sense Luo Hou had left within the Godslayer Spear.

The Godslayer Spear became an ownerless object.

His divine sense had been forcibly erased, and Luo Hou suffered a backlash as a result. His already illusory figure immediately became several degrees more transparent.

However, Luo Hou had no time to care about his injuries. He suddenly reached out to seize the Godslayer Spear back, only to be met by the Yuantu and Abi Swords attacking him.

"Damn it!"

Luo Hou cursed under his breath as the World-Destroying Black Lotus blazed with light.

"Boom!"

Another violent explosion rang out, and the Yuantu and Abi Swords flew back.

Wuchen took the opportunity to draw the Godslayer Spear into his hand.

Suppressing it and storing it away, all in one smooth motion.

In but an instant of combat, Luo Hou had lost the Godslayer Spear, his supreme killing treasure.

"You seek death!"

Enraged, Luo Hou abruptly rose from the lotus platform.

"Buzz!"

A strange hum came from every direction. The demonic qi of the entire Demon Realm, along with the world's power itself, converged upon Luo Hou.

Wuchen could not help shaking his head. "Your mana and cultivation have been completely lost. You even need to borrow the world's power to use divine abilities. Why struggle?"

As he spoke, boundless divine light burst forth from his body.

This time, it was no longer confined to his immediate surroundings.

With Wuchen at its center, the dazzling Purifying Divine Light spread in every direction.

Wherever the divine light passed, demonic qi scattered.

Within only a few breaths, the Purifying Divine Light had enveloped the entire Demon Realm.

With Purifying Divine Light covering it, how could demonic qi possibly survive?

The gloom of the Demon Realm was swept away, leaving only dazzling white light throughout the world.

"Pfft!"

The aura around Luo Hou suddenly collapsed, like a deflated balloon.

"Go!"

Wuchen pointed with his sword fingers. The Yuantu and Abi Swords, wreathed in multicolored light and carrying the force of seven laws, charged at Luo Hou.

This time, he had incorporated the Laws of Sun, Moon, and Stars.

"Even Hongjun could not kill me. Much less you."

As Luo Hou shouted, the black lotus shone brilliantly, and dead, silent black light completely enveloped him.

"Boom!"

The deathly black light firmly blocked the Yuantu and Abi Swords outside.

Whether it was the World-Destroying Black Lotus, the World-Purifying White Lotus, or any other lotus platform—

In terms of defense, across the entire Primordial World, perhaps only the Primordial Five-Element Banners formed from the leaves of the Genesis Azure Lotus, the All-Heavens Auspicious Cloud, and the Heaven-Earth Black-Yellow Exquisite Pagoda could compare.

Being innately invincible was not merely an empty claim.

"Is that so?"

Wuchen chuckled as the Purifying Divine Light filling the realm surged toward Luo Hou like a tidal wave, instantly drowning him within it.

The World-Destroying Black Lotus possessed peerless defense, but it could not withstand the bizarre Purifying Divine Light.

The dead, silent black light was purified bit by bit, leaving Luo Hou within it in grave danger.

The Purifying Divine Light could purify demonic qi, so naturally it could also purify him, the Demon Ancestor. Yet there was not the slightest trace of panic on Luo Hou's face.

"Hahaha..."

Luo Hou suddenly burst into laughter, just as he had laughed when Hongjun had once driven him into a desperate situation.

"So long as the demonic Dao remains, Luo Hou shall not die. Boy, when I return, we shall slowly settle this karma between us. I hope you will not disappoint me too much by then.

"Oh, and let me remind you.

"Hongjun intends to devour the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial World and refine the entire Primordial World, using Pangu's legacy to break through into the realm of the Primordial Unity Limitless Great Luo Golden Immortal.

"Whether it is you or the living beings of the Primordial World, if you wish to live, you must stop him."

When he finished speaking, Luo Hou voluntarily dispelled his defenses and allowed the divine light containing the power of purification to engulf his remnant consciousness.

His already illusory remnant consciousness could not withstand it for even a second before completely collapsing.

Although Luo Hou's remnant consciousness had dissipated, a wisp of true spirit escaped and merged into the entire Demon Realm. Once the demonic Dao flourished again, he would be able to return.

Wuchen sensed that true spirit, but there was nothing he could do about it.

As long as the demonic Dao remained, Luo Hou would not die. This was the course set by the Great Dao, not something a mere Great Luo Golden Immortal like him could overturn.

And the demonic Dao was almost impossible to destroy unless he broke through to the Great Dao Realm.

That was, the realm of the Primordial Unity Limitless Great Luo Golden Immortal.

As for Luo Hou's final words, Wuchen did not take them to heart.

Whether they were true or false did not matter.

Without sufficient strength, overthinking would only bring unnecessary troubles.

In the Primordial World, strength was supreme.

As long as he was powerful enough, no schemes or tricks would be of any use.

Wuchen raised a hand and drew over the World-Destroying Black Lotus.

Of the five lotus platforms, he had already obtained four. The remaining one was merely a matter of time.

The objective of this journey had nearly been accomplished.

And he had also gained the Godslayer Spear and the Yuantu and Abi Swords.

It could be considered an overfulfillment of his goal.

For offense, he had the supreme killing treasure, the Godslayer Spear. For defense, he had the various lotus platforms that were innately invincible.

Wuchen did not know how he could possibly lose.

Of course, Hongjun was still pressing down above him, and there was nothing he could do to him for the time being.

"It is time to return and comprehend the laws, and improve my innate foundation."

Wuchen swept his gaze across the Demon Realm, then turned into a streak of white light and fled from it.

After leaving the Demon Realm and returning to the ground—

Wuchen tore open space and was about to step inside when a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Young friend, please wait!"

Wuchen's body stiffened. Then, without looking back, he stepped into the spatial rift.

"???"

Watching the spatial rift mend itself, Hongjun could not help feeling somewhat bewildered.

What kind of person was that?

A normal person would at least turn around for a look after hearing someone call out to them.

But this fellow—

He ran off without even looking back, as though he had done something guilty.

"I would like to see where you can run to."
