Ji Daoyan's Assault on the Primordial Spirit

He was quite familiar with True Lord Haoran, but he didn't expect True Lord Haoran to be ranked alongside the other two.

Ji Feixue noticed his expression and smiled, saying, "True Lord Haoran is not only Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul, but more importantly, his talent is astonishingly extraordinary, far surpassing that of ordinary Nascent Soul True Lord."

"His comprehension is extraordinary. It is said that he cultivated a great Great Divine Ability to the Mahayana stage as early as the Nascent Soul Early Stage. Whether he has further developed it now is still unknown."

"Moreover, he once made a grand vow to connect the Earth Vein of the Heaven's Spine Mountains, helping it to break through and then rise as a dragon to ascend to heaven, thereby proving the Pure Yang realm."

Chen Nianzhi listened quietly, her eyes narrowing slightly involuntarily.

He himself had cultivated the Two-Mode Divine Thunder to the Mahayana stage in the Nascent Soul Early Stage, thinking that he was the only one of his kind in the world. He never expected that there would be such an amazing person in the world.

"Indeed, one should not underestimate the heroes of the world."

Chen Nianzhi shook his head and chuckled. "Thinking about it, it makes sense. Which cultivator at the True Lord realm isn't a genius? It's no surprise that someone as outstanding True Lord Haoran could emerge from there."

Of course, he did not underestimate himself. He had only recently broken through to the True Lord. If he had stayed in the early True Lord stage for a thousand years, he would have achieved unprecedented success with the blessing of the Heaven-Human Resonance.

"..."

After waiting in the main hall for a while, the Great Elder of the Ji Clan came out with several True Lord of the Ji Clan.

He glanced at everyone, then had a gift given to each of them. He then said with a smile, "I am deeply grateful for your assistance in helping my Ji clan leader break through to the Nascent Soul stage."

"A small gift, nothing more."

Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong also received two gifts. He probed them with his divine sense and found that they were actually two Tier 5 Nirvana Pill.

"A big investment."

He was slightly startled; Tier 5 Nirvana Pill was enough to help Nascent Soul Cultivator reshape their physical body.

Such a treasure is probably worth thirty Heavenly Crystal. The Ji Clan took out more than a dozen Nirvana Pill in one go, which can be described as quite generous.

After presenting the gifts, the Great Elder of the Ji Clan said with a smile, "I'll leave the matter of protecting the Dao to you all."

The Six Desires Fairy accepted the Nirvana Pill and said with a smile, "Rest assured, True Lord, we have known each other for many years, and I will naturally do my best to help you."

The Great Elder of the Ji Clan nodded, explained the situation to everyone, and then had someone lead them to rest.

Instead of being taken to a resting place, Chen Nianzhi and the other person were taken to the very core of the Ji Clan's dojo.

Before a closed cave, Ji Feixue and said, "To be honest, my father has actually been in seclusion for three months to break through, and now he is only one step away from receiving the Heaven Soul."

"The breakthrough is about to begin; let us stand guard in front of this cave."

"This..."

Chen Nianzhi's expression shifted slightly. Logically speaking, the best time for the Ji clan leader to guide the Heavenly Soul should be three months later.

Unexpectedly, the Ji clan leader broke through three months earlier than everyone had predicted.

Noticing their expressions, Ji Feixue said, "Although three months earlier isn't the optimal time to guide the Heaven Soul, it only increases the difficulty by 10%, so the difference isn't particularly significant."

"Given my father's foundation, even if I broke through three months earlier, I would still have a fairly good chance of success."

"Although breaking through ahead of schedule increases the difficulty slightly, it catches the enemy off guard, making it a worthwhile deal."

Both of them were somewhat surprised upon hearing this. Jiang Linglong laughed and said, "First, he plotted thousands of years in advance to ruin the Azure Flood Dragon Demon Emperor, and now he has broken through ahead of schedule to disrupt the demons' plans. My cousin is indeed cunning and shrewd, always doing things that surprise people."

Ji Feixue smiled as well. Her father, Ji Daoyan, might not be the most talented person in the world, but when it came to planning and strategizing, he was undoubtedly one of the best in the world.

This breakthrough was something he had been planning for thousands of years; it wouldn't be so easily thwarted.

The three of them said nothing more and sat cross-legged outside the secluded cultivation room, serving as the last line of defense for the Ji clan leader.

"..."

The Seclusion Chamber at the back was peaceful and serene, but unknowingly, an incomparably magnificent aura gradually emanated from it.

At first, no one noticed anything unusual, but after several hours, they finally realized something was wrong.

An unimaginable pressure emanated from the back mountain of the Ji Clan, causing everything to lose its color and the world to darken. Even Golden Core True Lord could hardly stand up under this pressure.

Within a radius of 100,000 li, all the cultivators felt that the world had lost its light, and an unparalleled despair weighed on their hearts.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling, incomparably brilliant light illuminated the darkness.

In the the Unseen, everyone seemed to see an incredibly solitary figure perched in the sky, as dazzling as the sun.

"This is..."

Above Dao Kong Mountain, one after another, True Lord of the Human Race flew into the sky, revealing a hint of shock.

Everyone was speechless. The Six Desires Fairy exclaimed in surprise, "The Great Sun Across the Sky! This is a phenomenon that can only occur when one breaks through to the Pure Yang realm!"

"How could he be so fast? This isn't the best time."

The True Lord all showed expressions of astonishment, while the demons hidden in the shadows widened their eyes in disbelief.

"How is that possible?"

A Demonic Path True Lord smashed mountains and rivers, roaring, "I spent forty-nine years setting up this altar, and I still need three months before I can unleash the spell!"

"If he breaks through to the Nascent Primordial Spirit now, wouldn't all my incantations be in vain?"

Even the peerless demon emperor was astonished, and said with a face full of regret, "I cultivated the ' Demon God Star-Plucking Great Divine Ability,' and three hundred years ahead of schedule, I plucked nine Archaic Stars from the Nine Heavens, waiting to bring them down in three months."

"Now that he has broken through ahead of schedule, haven't all my hard work been in vain?"

The demons hidden in the shadows were all taken aback, never expecting that their years of preparation would all be in vain.

Some demons were filled with resentment and couldn't help but cry out in a mournful voice, "He broke through three months early, which is not the best time for a breakthrough. Isn't he afraid that this will lead to a failure?"

Many people are puzzled because breaking through to the Primordial Spirit requires the right timing, location, and people; sometimes, even the slightest deviation can lead to failure.

The Ji clan leader did not break through at the optimal time, but instead chose a slightly less opportune moment, which could very likely lead to the failure of the breakthrough.

Regardless of what the demons and monsters say, the breakthrough has already begun.

The demon lords Devil Lord emperors could no longer restrain themselves and frantically charged towards the summit of Dao Kong Mountain.

Although the guardians on the mountaintop were also taken aback, they couldn't care less about that now. Xuantian True Lord, Six Desires Fairy, and even Lord Sorrow-Seal took action one after another, stopping the demon emperors and True Lord.

A great battle was about to break out. Chen Nianzhi looked up and found that there were dozens of cultivators from the human, demon, and monster races fighting together in the sky.
