An aura beyond the Great Firmament Golden Immortal?

That could only be a Chaos Golden Immortal!

A Chaos Golden Immortal!

Not a Quasi-Sage!

Di Jiang possessed the Nine-Turn Profound Origin Technique.

What he sought was the Chaos Golden Immortal realm, not the Three Corpses Method taught by that old loach Hongjun.

When breaking through, there was no need to use a Primordial Spirit Treasure to entrust one's Primordial Spirit.

Powerful strength flooded Di Jiang's entire body.

Vast spatial power spread outward.

It seemed as though it would compress the space within billions upon billions of miles into ruins.

His aura grew increasingly immense.

When it reached its peak—

BOOM!

A soundless thunderclap erupted.

Early Primordial Golden Immortal.

Achieved!

Terrifying!

Its might was utterly terrifying!

Di Jiang sensed his own strength.

He estimated his current combat power.

He could easily kill his former self.

"Ha ha ha!"

"Good, good, good!"

Di Jiang exclaimed "good" several times in a row.

He felt that both his physical body and Primordial Spirit

had broken through to the Chaos Golden Immortal realm.

How terrifying would the power produced by combining the two be?

After all, most Innate Divine Saints in the Primordial World followed the path of advancing through their Primordial Spirits. Who could compare to Di Jiang and the others in their absurdity?

Di Jiang assessed his own strength.

Against an Early Primordial Golden Immortal (Quasi-Sage Early Stage), he could kill them with ease.

Against a Middle Primordial Golden Immortal (Quasi-Sage Middle Stage), he could easily repel them.

Against a Late Primordial Golden Immortal (Quasi-Sage Late Stage), he could easily escape.

As for a Primordial Golden Immortal Great Perfection (Quasi-Sage Great Perfection), the gap was simply too great.

This was already incredibly terrifying!

Di Jiang had broken through to the Early Primordial Golden Immortal realm.

He was likely—

the first being to break through to the Chaos Golden Immortal realm since Hongjun became a Saint.

After sensing his cultivation, Di Jiang wore a faint smile. Then, stepping through the void, he swiftly headed toward the direction he had sensed.

Having broken through to the Chaos Golden Immortal realm, he was determined to obtain the Book of Humanity!

Meanwhile.

Above the Endless Marsh, which spanned billions upon billions of miles—

violent explosions rang out.

Terrifying attack waves stirred the Endless Marsh into waves tens of thousands of zhang high.

"Mosquito Daoist!"

"Hand over the Primordial Spirit Treasure in your possession."

"And submit to His Majesty!"

"Otherwise, you will die here today."

Yingzhao shouted sternly.

Yingzhao!

One of the ten great Demon Saints under Demon Emperor Dijun.

The other four great Demon Saints and twelve Demon Gods had formed an encirclement around Mosquito Daoist.

At that moment.

Mosquito Daoist had transformed into a pale-faced man with a pointed mouth and hooked nose. He looked around, unable to conceal the despair in his eyes.

He did not believe Yingzhao's words at all.

If he handed it over—

Demon Emperor Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi would certainly kill him to keep the matter secret!

Just then.

Two streaks of golden light tore through the sky.

They were none other than the relaxed-looking Taiyi and Dijun.

Taiyi held the Chaos Bell in his hand, cold killing intent gleaming in his eyes.

At the sight, Mosquito Daoist's pupils immediately shrank to pinpoints. Then he roared:

"You want the Primordial Spirit Treasure in my possession?"

"Dream on!"

"Book of Humanity, open!!"

With his furious roar, Mosquito Daoist suddenly activated the Book of Humanity.

The Book of Humanity had an ancient, unadorned cover and a completely black body. It emitted an obscure, primordial aura, as though it had been born when Chaos was first divided.

The cover seemed like both leather and metal, possessing a heavy texture. It bore mysterious patterns such as yin-yang fish and the cycle of life and death.

Mosquito Daoist shouted furiously as he activated the Book of Humanity. Boundless mysterious runes immediately began to move across it, gathering into an enormous wheel of light that shot swiftly toward the Demon Saints and Demon Gods.

Terrifying karmic power coiled around the wheel of light.

It crashed viciously into the Demon Saints and Demon Gods.

BOOM!

The Demon Saints and Demon Gods instantly cried out in agony.

Their bodies were sent flying backward.

Their physical injuries could still heal.

But what terrified them was the karmic power upon the wheel of light, which continuously entwined the Primordial Spirits within their seas of consciousness.

Their Primordial Spirits were immediately drawn into endless illusions of reincarnation.

The five Demon Saints and twelve Demon Gods turned deathly pale, their eyes clouded over with confusion.

Dijun and Taiyi were greatly shocked.

The Book of Humanity was actually so mysterious?

It could actually manipulate karmic power!

It could drag an enemy's Primordial Spirit into endless illusions of reincarnation.

If one's mind was not resolute enough, one would likely perish completely within those reincarnation illusions.

Their Primordial Spirit would then dissipate entirely.

Terrifying!

Utterly terrifying!

Witnessing such a horrifying scene—

Dijun's eyes instead burst with unprecedented divine light as he shouted:

"Second Brother!"

"We must obtain the Book of Humanity. With it, the strength of our Demon Court will rise greatly. By then, even the Ancestral Witches will hold no fear for us."

The conflict between the Demon Clan and the Ancestral Witches had begun to gradually emerge.

That was why Dijun spoke as he did.

Taiyi nodded to show that he understood, stepping into the void with the Chaos Bell in hand.

Meanwhile, after activating the Book of Humanity, Mosquito Daoist's face was incomparably pale. From his appearance, he clearly no longer had the strength to fight back.

Mosquito Daoist screamed sharply, put away the Book of Humanity, and transformed into countless blood mosquitoes as he fled forward at high speed.

"You want to flee? Can you?"

Taiyi sneered, then activated the Chaos Bell.

With a clang, an ancient bell tone rang out. Visible ripples spread forth, freezing the space they passed through in place.

Not long after Mosquito Daoist transformed into countless blood mosquitoes, he was frozen in place. His heart was filled with endless despair.

The Chaos Bell was actually this terrifying? It could freeze boundless space?

Taiyi activated the Chaos Bell once more.

The ancient bell tone rang out again, but this time it was filled with killing intent.

Mosquito Daoist despaired.

Just as Dijun and Taiyi believed victory was within their grasp—

suddenly—

mysterious spatial power spread outward.

BOOM!

The spatial power collided with the bell tone.

The void rippled violently, as though it were about to be torn apart.

"Who is it!"

"Show yourself!"

Taiyi was greatly startled and immediately shouted.

Killing intent filled Dijun's eyes. Someone actually dared to ruin his plans?

At that moment, Di Jiang slowly stepped through the void, standing with his hands behind his back. His robes fluttered as he said calmly:

"It is I. So what?"

Dijun's pupils contracted slightly as he shouted, "You! Di Jiang!"

Taiyi's expression turned grave. He sensed that Di Jiang's aura was somewhat unusual, as though Di Jiang could easily suppress him.

At that moment, Mosquito Daoist realized he could move again. The countless blood mosquitoes gathered once more, forming an enormous Six-Winged Black Mosquito before transforming back into human form. He said to Di Jiang:

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for saving my life!"

Di Jiang ignored Dijun and the others. Instead, he looked at Mosquito Daoist and asked calmly:

"The Book of Humanity! Is it in your possession?"

Upon hearing this, Dijun and Taiyi's pupils immediately contracted.

Di Jiang had also come for the Book of Humanity?

Then anger filled their eyes, and killing intent rose within them.

They had set their sights on the Book of Humanity. They could not allow it to fall into Di Jiang's hands.

Moreover, they had never been on good terms with the Ancestral Witches.

That made it even more impossible for them to hand the Book of Humanity over to Di Jiang.

Mosquito Daoist had not expected Di Jiang to have come for the Book of Humanity as well. A bitter smile immediately appeared on his face as he answered helplessly:

"In reply to Fellow Daoist, the Book of Humanity is indeed in my possession."
