Taiyi frowned when he suddenly saw another person appear beside Houtu. His icy gaze fell upon Lu Xuan.

"You are a member of the Demon Race. Why have you joined forces with the Witch Race and turned against your own kind?"

Lu Xuan's true form was the Six-Eared Macaque. In a sense, he indeed ought to have belonged to the Demon Race. Yet Lu Xuan had never acknowledged that identity.

He even felt that Nuwa and Fuxi, willingly serving as the Demon Race's Wa Emperor and Xi Emperor, had degraded themselves. How could he possibly admit to being one of them?

With a smile, he said, "Your Demon Race is far too arrogant. Could it be that in this Primordial World, aside from the Witch Race, there is only your Demon Race?"

"Then let me ask you: are the Three Pure Ones part of the Demon Race? Are the Western Two Sages part of the Demon Race?"

Lu Xuan's questions left Taiyi speechless. He could not be bothered to waste more words, so he raised his right hand and struck the Eastern Emperor Bell with force.

A deafening toll resounded across the heavens. Mountains, rivers, grass, and trees all trembled, as though the entire Primordial World were about to collapse.

Fearing that Lu Xuan would be unable to withstand the Eastern Emperor Bell's attack, Houtu immediately stepped in front of him. At the same time, she activated the Great Dao Earth Law, forming a shield before them with the power of mountains.

The bell's toll crashed against the shield, sending ripples spreading outward. In the end, both the toll and the shield vanished at once, leaving neither side the victor.

At the same time, Lu Xuan reached into the void and grabbed, and an iron rod appeared in his hand.

This iron rod was not the Compliant Iron Rod that the Six-Eared Macaque would wield in later ages. It was the left arm of the Chaos Demon Ape.

Back when Pangu split the Chaos Demon Ape into four, the portion that became the Six-Eared Macaque had been the Chaos Demon Ape's left half.

That part of the body contained the Chaos Demon Ape's heart. Thus, among the Four Chaos Monkeys, the Six-Eared Macaque possessed the greatest spiritual intelligence.

After Lu Xuan transmigrated here, he had refined a portion of his true body—the Chaos Demon Ape's left arm—into his own accompanying spirit weapon.

Though Lu Xuan had still named it the Compliant Iron Rod, its might was worlds apart, possessing the true power to destroy heaven and earth.

With a thought from Lu Xuan, the Compliant Iron Rod instantly expanded and slammed straight toward the Eastern Emperor Bell in Taiyi's hand.

Taiyi had never expected a mere Primordial Unity Golden Immortal to dare attack him—let alone attack the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Eastern Emperor Bell.

He immediately thrust the Eastern Emperor Bell forward, intending to use its rebounding force to suppress and kill the ant before him.

Houtu's heart lurched at the sight, but it was already too late to stop Lu Xuan.

Everything happened in the span of a spark. The Compliant Iron Rod had already struck heavily against the Eastern Emperor Bell.

Yet the tremendous crash everyone expected never came. Instead, the Compliant Iron Rod changed shape and seized the Eastern Emperor Bell like a giant hand.

Then, catching Taiyi off guard, it yanked the Eastern Emperor Bell toward Lu Xuan, as though he intended to snatch away Taiyi's Innate Supreme Treasure.

Taiyi had not expected such a turn of events and stood stunned for a moment. He hurriedly reached out to seize the Eastern Emperor Bell.

The Eastern Emperor Bell was Taiyi's accompanying spiritual treasure. Even if it fell into another's hands, he needed only a thought to summon it back.

Thus, Lu Xuan had never truly believed he could take Eastern Emperor Taiyi's Eastern Emperor Bell. Everything he had done was merely a feint.

So, the instant Taiyi acted, a cold smile rose at the corner of Lu Xuan's lips. He pushed his right hand forward, and the other end of the Compliant Iron Rod blasted directly toward Taiyi's chest.

It had originally been an iron rod, yet in Lu Xuan's hands, it moved like a strand of noodles. It changed freely with his will.

But when it struck Taiyi's body, it was nothing like noodles in softness. It truly carried the force of mountains.

Taiyi felt a sharp pain erupt in his chest. His blood and qi churned violently, while Solar True Fire spewed from all seven of his orifices.

If Lu Xuan's cultivation had reached the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, that single blow would have been enough to make Taiyi spend several thousand, perhaps even ten thousand, years recovering.

Unfortunately, Lu Xuan's cultivation was simply too low. The damage he had inflicted now was only possible because of his formidable physical body.

After delivering that blow, Lu Xuan secretly thought, This is probably my limit. If you, Dijiang, still don't come, you'll be collecting the bodies of your little brother and little sister.

Sure enough, Taiyi transformed into a Three-Legged Golden Crow. Surging Solar True Fire burned across his entire body as he hung over Wuyi Mountain like a blazing sun.

In mere moments, the mist within Wuyi Mountain was instantly evaporated, revealing its true appearance to the heavens and earth of the Primordial World.

At the same time, the Eastern Emperor Bell floated above the Three-Legged Golden Crow's head as the power of the stars was drawn forth in succession.

In the blink of an eye, sun and moon shone together in the sky, and stars emerged. It was clearly a simplified Celestial Star-Dome Formation, with the Eastern Emperor Bell as its formation eye.

A complete Celestial Star-Dome Formation required not only the Eastern Emperor Bell as its formation eye, but also three hundred and sixty-five Star Lords stationed throughout the formation.

Even the simplified Celestial Star-Dome Formation was not to be underestimated. For Lu Xuan and Houtu to retreat unscathed would not be easy.

However, Lu Xuan was not worried in the slightest. At worst, he could pull Houtu into the Pangu World-Opening Map. By then, even if Taiyi possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth, he would not be able to harm them in the least.

Just as the situation hung by a thread, space suddenly rippled. Then Dijiang stepped out from a spatial rift.

"Taiyi, you feathered beast dare bully my, Dijiang's, little sister? Do you truly think my Witch Race has no one left?"

Dijiang was the first to arrive above Wuyi Mountain, immediately activating the Great Dao Space Law. He completely sealed off the space within a radius of ten thousand li around Wuyi Mountain.

This severed the connection between the Eastern Emperor Bell and the Celestial Star-Dome Formation, causing the stellar phenomena in the sky to vanish at once.

After all, this was only a simplified Celestial Star-Dome Formation. If three hundred and sixty-five Star Lords had been stationed within it, then no matter how powerful Dijiang's Space Law was, he could not have severed the formation's connection to the stars.

When he heard that Dijiang had arrived, Lu Xuan finally let out the breath he had been holding. At the same time, he did not forget to turn his gaze toward Kunpeng nearby.

"Dijiang, Taiyi is yours. If possible, try to capture him alive."

After speaking, he headed straight for Kunpeng. At the same time, the Pangu World-Opening Map floated above Lu Xuan's head.

However, the Pangu World-Opening Map was not unfurled at this moment. It remained in the form of a scroll, slowly rotating above Lu Xuan's head.

Even so, countless streams of chaos qi poured down from the Pangu World-Opening Map, directly sheltering Lu Xuan within them.

"It was clearly the Western Two Sages who stole your seat. You did not dare seek revenge against them, yet you turned around and caused trouble for Fellow Daoist Hongyun instead. Looks like you are nothing but a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong."

A powerful pressure descended directly upon Kunpeng, making him groan inwardly, You're telling me this is a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal?
