Mu Jizi and Kunpeng began their secluded cultivation, utterly unaware that the Primordial Wilderness was becoming lively because of them!
The Beast Clan's First Elder and Second Prince, Qi Yu, failed to find Mu Jizi and Kunpeng at Mount Buzhou. Instead, by chance, they encountered Ancestor Yangmei. After some persuasion, they recruited Ancestor Yangmei into the Beast Clan as a guest elder! Then, through Ancestor Yangmei's connections, they visited mountains and rivers, drawing in many reclusive experts at once. The Beast Clan's strength soared as a result!
The Scale-Clad Tribe and the Winged-Beast Tribe could no longer sit still. They followed suit, traveling through mountains and rivers to recruit experts!
For a time, the Primordial Wilderness became bustling. The innate great divinities no longer remained in seclusion to cultivate the Dao, instead joining the three clans one after another and enjoying the pleasures of the world. Among the renowned great divinities were Firmament Ancestor, formed from innate pure qi; Ancestor Qiankun, formed from innate turbid qi; Inversion Ancestor, formed from yin and yang qi; and Five Elements Ancestor, formed from the innate five elements!
All of them possessed immense magic power and great divine abilities. Even the weakest among them had entered the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, while the strongest stood shoulder to shoulder with the chiefs of the three clans, having reached the Daluo Golden Immortal realm!
With these great experts joining them, the three clans grew bolder. After another five thousand years of development, each clan reached the height of its power. All of them plotted to devour the others, but each feared making a wedding dress for someone else, so they limited themselves to minor skirmishes and repeatedly suppressed any true war!
Even so, it was enough to provoke the wrath of Heaven and man. Countless living beings died unjustly, their intense resentment gathering above the Primordial Wilderness!
After developing for some time, this unjust death resentment unexpectedly gave birth to a renowned great divinity: Rahu Ancestor!
Rahu Ancestor was a renowned great divinity of later generations. He had competed with Dao Ancestor Hongjun for the role of protagonist in the calamity at the beginning of Creation. From birth, he possessed Daluo Golden Immortal cultivation, along with the legendary Four Swords of Immortal Slaying Formation, which commanded slaughter, and the supreme defensive spiritual treasure, the Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus!
The moment this devil was born, countless sinister fiendish qi surged with joy and bowed before him, as though they knew he was the progenitor of the demonic path!
The Demon Ancestor Luohu was born in accordance with fate. As the protagonist of this calamity, everything went smoothly for him. Following the guidance of the Heavenly Dao, he established the Demon Sect. Using the merit from founding the sect, he severed his Good Corpse and attained the position of Quasi-Sect Master!
With the cultivation of a Quasi-Sect Master, Luohu feared no one in the entire Primordial Wilderness. Yet while he feared nothing, he still guarded against the unexpected. As the progenitor of the demonic path, not only was his cultivation and understanding of the Dao peerless, but his intelligence was beyond the reach of most!
He first disguised himself as a reclusive expert and joined the Winged-Beast Tribe, taking the opportunity to slowly control the entire tribe...
He then infiltrated the Beast Clan and Scale-Clad Tribe as well. Slowly, the Primordial Wilderness entered an era ruled by Luohu!
Had that been all, it would have been one thing. But Rahu Ancestor himself had been formed from the resentment of unjust deaths, and he seemed to harbor hatred toward everyone beneath heaven. At the slightest provocation, he slaughtered without restraint. No one among the three clans could withstand even a single exchange with him, and they could only struggle on in miserable survival!
Even then, he was not satisfied. He wished to use the Primordial Wilderness to break open the Heavenly Dao and achieve his own ascension, but his magic power was insufficient!
However, he was a man of great wisdom. Since his own magic power was not enough, he borrowed external strength and created a method to gather the resentful spirits of heaven and earth, condensing supreme fiends. Every one of these fiends was formed from unjustly slain resentful spirits, and they could devour one another!
He intended to refine hundreds of millions of fiends, then have them devour one another until the strongest fiend emerged. He would then use that fiend to break open the Heavenly Dao in a single stroke and achieve his own ascension!
Luohu truly deserved to be called the progenitor of the demonic path. His wisdom surpassed that of ordinary people, and the method he conceived was earth-shaking! Yet once he truly created the fiends, he discovered that matters were far from as simple as he had imagined!
Though the fiends had been created and possessed the traits he expected, they were exceptionally savage and loved to feast on human essence and blood. Without essence and blood to consume, their power greatly diminished!
Thus, he seized great numbers of members from the three clans to feed the fiends. But this was merely a drop in the bucket, so in the end, he simply allowed the fiends to develop on their own.
Luohu was cunning. Knowing these fiends were things that defied Heaven and would certainly displease the Heavenly Dao, he first used the Four Swords of Immortal Slaying to lay down the Immortal-Slaying Formation in the Western Realm, concealing the secrets of Heaven. Only then did he release endless fiends to develop within the Zhuxian Sword Formation!
When the Heaven-Connecting Cult Master of later generations set down the Four Swords of Immortal Slaying Formation, its power was immense. The heavens and earth spun, and an aura of disaster filled every corner.
This was the world formed by the Immortal-Slaying Formation: a bleak world, a dim heaven and earth. Even when the sun and moon shone down from above, everything remained deathly still, like an elderly man in his twilight years, standing at death's threshold.
Rumble!
Countless volcanoes erupted without cease. Thick dust and dark clouds filled the sky, while volcanic lava stretching thousands of feet flowed everywhere, like a tragic scene of the apocalypse descending.
In some places, volcanoes erupted. In others, violent hurricanes rose from the earth and swept across thousands of miles. Elsewhere, unending snow fell, freezing everything for ten thousand miles, while vast black swamps spread across other regions, thick with poisonous miasma.
This world was filled everywhere with such harsh environments. If there were no volcanic eruptions, there were endless earthquakes; if not raging hurricanes, then ice and snow that never melted. Swamps, bogs, and poisonous gases spread throughout, while the sky remained forever gloomy and gray. Disaster lay everywhere, without a single inch of land or space that was peaceful.
What kind of world was this? Countless fiends plundered without restraint. The Western Realm, once rich in spiritual qi and resembling an immortal paradise, became incomparably barren in only a few years.
Countless living beings of the Western Realm were sucked dry and killed by the fiends. The resentful spirits born from their unjust deaths then became fiends themselves. The cycle continued again and again, producing hundreds of millions, even billions, of vicious fiends within just a few years.
At this moment, among the living beings of the Western Realm, only the two sages of the Western Realm destined by Heaven in later generations escaped. Everyone else became food for the fiends!
This was not the end. When the countless fiends eventually ran out of food, they began devouring one another. In the end, a fiend with immense magic power emerged. Not only was it profoundly powerful, but it was also exceptionally vicious. Luohu was overjoyed when he saw it. He then used the External Avatar Method to refine the fiend, severing his Evil Corpse and attaining the cultivation of a Quasi-Sect Master who had severed two corpses!
How could the Heavenly Dao fail to notice such a Heaven-defying act? It was simply that this calamity had arrived, and the Western Realm was destined to suffer this tribulation!
By this point, Luohu's confidence had swelled to the extreme. With the cultivation of having severed two corpses, he wanted to contend against the Heavenly Dao!
Yet he had not been blinded by his suddenly increased strength. He knew that his Evil Corpse fiend still had enormous potential, so he began slaughtering members of the three clans on a massive scale to increase his Evil Corpse's magic power!
Thus, the three clans welcomed a devastating catastrophe...
