As a manifestation of Hongyun, the Hongyun itself moves extremely fast, and during the Daluo era, it was one of the fastest moving Primordial World in the primordial world.

Pity...

At this moment, the Kunpeng chasing him was also known as the fastest in the Primordial World.

Moreover, Kunpeng's cultivation level was far superior to Hongyun's.

Hongyun was caught up by Kunpeng before he could get very far. Relying on the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd and the Soul-Scattering Red Sand inside, Hongyun managed to escape from Kunpeng's grasp several times.

But...

"We're straying further and further from Brother Zhenyuan's Daoist abode!" Hongyun gave a bitter smile. He had originally planned to seek refuge at Zhenyuanzi's Five Villages Temple.

After all, as someone who was on good terms with Zhenyuanzi, he knew exactly how sturdy Zhenyuanzi had made Five Villages Temple.

Let alone a Kunpeng, even if the Kunpeng were to team up with the Demon Race, they could easily withstand it.

Given the difference in cultivation levels between him and Kunpeng, it was already a struggle for him to escape repeatedly; he couldn't possibly care about direction anymore.

Looking at the Kunpeng that was quickly catching up behind him, Hongyun slapped the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd.

The raging Soul-Scattering Red Sand spewed towards the Kunpeng behind it, forcing it to defend and dodge. Taking advantage of this moment, the Hongyun also increased the distance between itself and the Kunpeng.

But after Kunpeng dealt with the Soul-Scattering Red Sand, it quickly caught up.

"Damn it, where did this Hongyun get so much vicious red sand!" Kunpeng stared at the Hongyun in front of him with a grim expression.

Having fought Hongyun many times, he gained a deeper understanding of the characteristics of the Soul-Scattering Red Sand.

It not only exhibits corrosive Law Power, shakes the soul, and defiles formations at the beginning, but it can also corrode spiritual treasures and the body.

Even Innate spiritual treasures will be corroded and destroyed if they come into contact with too much of that red sand.

As for corroding the body, even his Quasi-Sage level Kunpeng body would be easily corroded.

If he hadn't acted decisively and shaved off the part stained with red sand, he probably would have been completely corroded by the red sand.

He couldn't believe that such terrifying and vicious red sand could have originated from the High-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd.

The two chased and fled, and before they knew it, they had traversed almost half of the Primordial World, alarming a large number of Divine Ability beings.

Many Divine Ability beings even wanted to intervene and capture Hongyun before Kunpeng could.

Unfortunately, putting aside Hongyun's terrifying speed, in the Primordial World, apart from a few Quasi-Sage who excelled in speed or powerful beings whose cultivation far surpassed Hongyun's, there was no one who could catch up with him.

Even those who tried to surround Hongyun in front of Hongyun thoroughly experienced the wickedness of the Soul-Scattering Red Sand.

And the sneer of the Kunpeng that swept past the other party.

"That is..."

As he fled, Hongyun suddenly spotted the crimson Blood Sea hundreds of millions of miles away, and his expression changed drastically.

"Damn it, how did I end up here?" Hongyun cursed inwardly.

The boundless Blood Sea is said to have been formed from the tainted blood within the body of Great God Pangu who created heaven and earth; whether this is true or not is another matter.

But this place is definitely the most filthy and bloody place in the Primordial World. Of the billions of living beings in the Primordial World, very few are willing to go here.

Moreover, this filthy land also harbors a powerful being who can be considered a top-tier Divine Ability even in the vast primordial Primordial World.

Ancestor Minghe!

He possesses the cultivation level of Quasi-Sage who has severed two corpses, and he also possesses a great treasure!

Hongyun thought of the sinister-looking Ancestor Minghe she had once seen at the Purple Firmament Palace.

At such a time, even those Divine Ability beings who had once received favors from Hongyun would likely be tempted by Hongyun and the Primordial purple qi.

Not to mention a powerful and ruthless figure like the Ancestor Minghe.

The other party will definitely not hesitate to attack him and seize the Primordial purple qi.

Hongyun immediately tried to turn and escape, but the Kunpeng behind Hongyun did not stop Hongyun in the slightest.

Hongyun could see the boundless Blood Sea, so naturally he could see it too.

Compared to blocking Hongyun at this time, it is obviously more important to eliminate the powerful competitor, the Ancestor Minghe.

Only...

"Haha, fellow Daoists, now that you've come to my Netherworld Blood Sea, why not come in and have a seat instead of turning around and leaving!"

A strange, eerie voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

At the same time, the previously calm and boundless Blood Sea in the distance suddenly surged with huge waves.

In the blink of an eye, it engulfed billions of miles of land, encompassing the area where Hongyun and Kunpeng were located into the Blood Sea.

A Daoist priest with blood-red hair and robes hovered in front of Hongyun and Kunpeng, sneering. He held two Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, Yuantu and Abi, pointing them at the two.

Without the slightest hesitation, Kunpeng's cold gaze fixed straight on the Minghe, and a Divine Ability was unleashed towards Minghe.

"Very far off, very far off!"

The Ancestor Minghe laughed heartily. With a mere wave of his hand, Yuantu and Abi unleashed the full power of their Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, easily shattering Kunpeng's Divine Ability.

At the same time, two torrents of blood-red sword light, each tens of millions of feet long, swept towards Kunpeng.

"Snort!"

Seeing the scene before him, Kunpeng snorted coldly and revealed his true form. A Peng bird that blotted out the sky appeared above the Blood Sea.

The torrent of Sword Qi, spanning millions of feet, was torn to shreds by the roc's sharp claws.

Seeing the scene before him, Minghe's gaze turned cold. He poured his Law Power into the Yuantu and Abi, and a terrifying killing intent emerged from the two swords.

Thousands, tens of thousands, or even more.

Streaks of blood-red Sword Qi, each tens of millions of feet long, surged toward the Kunpeng like rolling dragons.

"Northern Abyss Devouring Absorption!"

A gigantic black hole hangs in the sky, its endless, terrifying suction force appearing out of nowhere, causing sand and stones to fly everywhere.

The streaks of blood-red Sword Qi were drawn in by the suction force, and all of Sword Qi disappeared into the black hole, leaving no trace.

Minghe's eyes narrowed slightly, and the blood-red, bewitching flames on his Yuantu and Abi quietly enveloped the two longswords.

Then, the Sword Qi unleashed by the Minghe burned with bewitching flames, and as the flames occasionally leaped up on the Sword Qi energy, red lotuses quietly bloomed.

Red Lotus Karmic Fire!

In this world, there is merit, and naturally there is karma.

Doing good deeds and accumulating virtue benefits the Primordial World and thus brings merit; killing and committing evil deeds destroys the Primordial World and thus incurs karma.

Normally, karma is not apparent, but during Immeasurable Tribulation, it is the time for heaven and earth to settle karma.

The Red Lotus Karmic Fire uses the karma accumulated throughout a person's life as fuel. This flame ignores all defenses and ignites upon contact.

Without burning away all karma, no amount of effort can resolve it.

Even Minghe himself only dared to regard this terrifying karmic fire as his trump card because he relied on the protection of the Twelfth-Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus.

As for Kunpeng, Minghe didn't need to think much to know that the karma on its body was absolutely terrifying.

"Die! Forgive me for the sins you have committed!" Minghe looked up at Kunpeng with the same gaze as a dead man.

"What kind of flame is that?!"

In mid-air, Kunpeng sensed the extremely dangerous aura, and his expression changed drastically. Looking down at the Minghe, his eyes immediately revealed a deep sense of fear.

Just when Minghe had already regarded Kunpeng as a dead man, and just when Kunpeng was preparing to fight to the death.

Thump!

A bell suddenly rang out, resounding throughout the heavens and earth.

Where the bell tolls, all things fall silent.

Those blood-red Sword Qi burning with the Red Lotus Karmic Fire vanished without a trace.

"This is..."

"Chaos Bell!"

The name of this magical treasure, capable of possessing such power with just a single bell chime, involuntarily came to mind for both the Minghe and the Kunpeng.

Kunpeng's face was somewhat gloomy. Although Eastern Emperor Taiyi now, the fact that the other party appeared at such a convenient time made him wonder.

"How dare you, Minghe! You dare to attack my Heavenly Court, the Demon Master!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi emerged from the void, gazing at the Minghe before him and roaring. The Chaos Bell in his hand surged with divine power, radiating a terrifying aura.

"Eastern Emperor Taiyi!"

Minghe's eyes narrowed.

Although both are Two-Corpse-Severing Quasi-Sage, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, who wields the Innate Supreme Treasure Chaos Bell, is far more dangerous than Kunpeng.

But...

Minghe sneered. Surrounded by the boundless Blood Sea, he was not afraid of anything, not even the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, or even if the Demon Race brought the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation.

Meanwhile, on the side of the three who were facing off, Hongyun looked at Eastern Emperor Taiyi who had appeared and felt despair.

Originally, Hongyun was quite pleased to see Kunpeng attack the Minghe.

After all, if the two fought, he would have had a chance to escape in the chaos, but... the appearance of Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

Especially at the moment the Chaos Bell, Hongyun felt his body freeze for a split second, and he understood.

He had absolutely no hope of escaping.

Even with just one Kunpeng, he was chased relentlessly, with nowhere to run in the sky or on the ground. Add to that the Ancestor Minghe and the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

Even if the three of them were at odds, he... was doomed!

"This time, I am doomed!" Hongyun smiled bitterly, but at this moment, his gaze toward Kunpeng, Minghe, and Taiyi calmed down.

"Fellow Daoist Hongyun, what calamity could you possibly face? Simply hand over the Primordial purple qi, and I promise to spare your life, how about that!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi looked at the Hongyun and said in a deep voice.

"Hand over the Primordial purple qi!"

Upon hearing Taiyi's words, Hongyun instinctively felt a urge to hand over the Primordial purple qi, but she immediately cut it off.

Although he faced a dead end, Hongyun had dedicated his life to seeking the Dao and had never feared death.

On the contrary, for Hongyun, giving up the Primordial purple qi in exchange for a chance to live was something even more painful than death.

"What is there to fear in death! It's a pity I never got to see the true view from the pinnacle of the Dao in this lifetime!"

Hongyun shook his head and said softly, closing his eyes and imagining the scenery he longed for, a smile involuntarily appearing on his lips.

At this moment, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Kunpeng, and Minghe all changed their expressions drastically. Looking at the ever-expanding red gourd in front of Hongyun, they hurriedly retreated away from Hongyun.

"Boom--"

A deafening roar that shook the heavens and the earth suddenly erupted from this remote Netherworld Blood Sea.

Above the Netherworld Blood Sea, a crimson sun seemed to appear, and the terrifying explosion's effects spread for hundreds of millions of miles.

But the most terrifying thing was not the explosion, but the Soul-Scattering Red Sand that filled billions of miles of the sky and earth.

In the instants following the explosion, within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles, there was nothing left but the Soul-Scattering Red Sand.

In the distance, the three Two-Corpse-Severing Quasi-Sage all had grim expressions as they looked at the billions of miles of world shrouded in endless Soul-Scattering Red Sand, their eyes filled with disbelief.

They believed they had lived long enough.

I've seen people use explosives, I've seen people self-destruct, and I've even heard of someone detonating the entire Western Spirit Vein in an attempt to perish together with others.

But to self-destruct Innate Spirit Treasure?

They never even considered it.

Not only the three of them, but all the powerful beings in the Primordial World who were watching this scene were stunned, for that was Innate Spirit Treasure.

"How is this possible? Hongyun self-destructed his Innate Spirit Treasure?"

"How did he do that!"

In the Primordial World, all Innate Spirit Treasure are supreme treasures born Innate and earth; they can be refined and used.

But self-destruction?

Even Quasi-Sage wouldn't allow a low-grade Innate Spirit Treasure to self-destruct, let alone a High-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure that Hongyun self-destructed.

"Whoosh--"

From within the vast expanse of red sand, a figure suddenly darted out.

"Hongyun? He's still alive?"

"Don't run away!"

Kunpeng and Minghe had no time to think. They roared in unison and chased after the figure.

To the astonishment of Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Kunpeng, the Hongyun that fled out actually headed straight for the depths of the Blood Sea.

"Was he stunned by the explosion?" Kunpeng roared inwardly. The depths of the Blood Sea were the territory of the Minghe.
