Chapter 150 Demon
"It's you!"
Upon seeing Feng Zichen, the face of the World-Destroying Daoist instantly darkened, his eyes filled with cold light, and killing intent surged from his body, directly attacking him.
"Fellow Daoist, it's been a long time. Your temper has grown even more!" With a light smile, a purple light appeared on Feng Zichen's body, extinguishing the attacking killing intent.
"Hmph! I've searched for you for years without finding a trace of you. I didn't expect you to appear before me today. You're truly courting death!"
With a cold snort, the World-Destroying Daoist's killing intent intensified. If it weren't for the two Wu Clan members before him, he probably would have already attacked Feng Zichen.
Since the Battle of Thunder Swamp, the World-Destroying Daoist had been searching the entire prehistoric world for Feng Zichen's whereabouts, seeking revenge for the theft of his origin.
Unfortunately, Feng Zichen was extremely cautious, leaving no trace whatsoever, even completely concealing the heavenly secrets within him.
After exhausting all calculations, searching for someone of unknown origin in the primordial world was like finding a needle in a haystack—how could the World-Destroying Daoist possibly find them! Moreover, given the Xuanmen's power in the primordial world, how could the Demonic Sect dare to conduct a large-scale search for someone? They would only dare to search within a small area, making it even more difficult to find them.
The World-Destroying Daoist was almost ready to give up, but now, Feng Zichen suddenly appeared before him, filling him with a mixture of joy and surprise.
Old grudges surged back, filling him with murderous intent, making him want to skin Feng Zichen alive. If he hadn't retained some reason, he would have already rushed forward.
"Fellow Daoist Kuafu, long time no see!" Ignoring the World-Destroying Daoist, Feng Zichen turned around and greeted Kuafu on the other side.
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Zichen!" Nodding, Kuafu said with emotion, "Since our parting at the Battlefield of Ferocious Beasts, we haven't seen each other again. It has indeed been a long time."
"I still remember that we were all at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level back then. I never imagined that in the blink of an eye, we would meet again, and we would all have attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal level!"
Compared to the World-Destroying Daoist, Kuafu's attitude was undoubtedly much better. After all, Feng Zichen carried the Pangu inheritance, and the Wu Clan naturally had a good impression of him.
"Not at all, how can my Great Luo Dao Fruit compare to yours, Fellow Daoist? Let's not talk about it!" Waving his hand, Feng Zichen said helplessly.
He knew his own situation; his Great Luo Golden Immortal level was too much of a stretch. How could it compare to the Great Luo Dao Fruit that others had painstakingly cultivated!
"And who is this Fellow Daoist?" Looking at the burly man holding a giant axe beside Kuafu, Feng Zichen had a guess in his heart, but he still asked.
"I haven't introduced him to you yet, Fellow Daoist. This is Xing Tian, the Great Shaman of my Houtu tribe!" Pointing to Xing Tian beside him, Kuafu introduced him.
"Greetings, Great Witch Xingtian!" Indeed, it was Him. Confirming his suspicions, Feng Zichen bowed and said.
"Fellow Daoist Zichen, there's no need for such formality. Just call me Xingtian. Since you have the Father God's approval, you are a friend of my Witch Clan. No need for formalities."
Pangu's name was even more useful than Feng Zichen had expected. Before he had done anything, Xingtian had already expressed goodwill.
"What happened here? Why did you and your companions clash with the demonic cultivators?" Feng Zichen asked curiously, glancing at the demonic cultivators ahead.
"Hmph! Those wicked creatures have such audacity! They dared to plunder our clansmen and refine magical treasures while we were in seclusion! They truly deserve to die!" Before Kuafu could answer, Xingtian said hatefully.
"Killing people to refine treasures?" Surprised, Feng Zichen glanced at the demonic cultivators with slight astonishment. These people really knew how to choose their timing.
Not long ago, the birth of the Five Sages caused a great upheaval in the world. The concentration of primordial energy increased, the laws of order became clearly visible, and the world was bathed in clarity, ushering in a golden age of cultivation.
Many powerful beings seized this opportunity to go into seclusion, seeking further advancements, and the primordial world welcomed a long-awaited peace.
At this time, the Sages were busy creating the Great Thousand Worlds in the outer chaos, unable to oversee the primordial land, while many powerful beings remained in seclusion.
This gave the Demonic Sect an opportunity to emerge from the shadows of the primordial world and stir up trouble in various places.
Unlike the Profound Sect, the Demonic Sect cultivates by absorbing malevolent energy and calamity energy; the more chaotic the primordial world, the faster the Demonic cultivators progress.
This is why, at the end of the ancient era, the Demon Ancestor Rahu instigated the three races to ignite a war. Destroying the primordial world was only one aspect; more importantly, he wanted to use this opportunity to advance further.
Now, the Demonic Sect has re-emerged, and its target is the Witch Clan and the Wu Clan.
They intended to emulate the Demon Ancestor's past deeds, assassinating members of the Witch Clan and framing the Demon Clan to incite a war between them, filling the primordial world with malevolent energy and ushering in a golden age
for the demonic path. However, shortly after they killed the Witch Clan members, before they could frame the Demon Clan, they were discovered by Xing Tian, who was traveling, which triggered the subsequent series of events.
"Let's go!" On the other side, seeing Feng Zichen and Kuafu chatting happily, clearly quite familiar with each other, two of the demonic cultivators exchanged a glance, pulled the World Destroyer Daoist, and slowly retreated, intending to leave this place.
Originally, they hadn't gained the upper hand against two opponents, and now with the arrival of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, they were even less likely to gain the upper hand against three opponents. If they didn't leave now, when would they?
"You wretch, where do you think you're going?" Xing Tian, who had been distracted by the movements of the demonic cultivators, saw the three about to escape and immediately roared, swinging his giant axe to strike.
That axe was no ordinary axe; it was formed from a section of the blade of Pangu's Axe, containing a portion of the true essence of creation. Although it was only a high-grade innate spiritual treasure, its power surpassed that of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.
Rumble!
As if the heavens and earth were splitting open, a massive rift opened in the void, within which earth, fire, water, and wind surged, like a gigantic maw swallowing the three demonic cultivators—terrifying beyond measure.
"Do you really think I'm afraid of you?!" The three demonic cultivators, who were retreating, noticed the change behind them, and their faces turned cold. They turned around in unison, unleashing their divine powers to strike behind them.
Xing Tian was strong, but it was only a hasty attack; how much power could it possibly have? Three streams of innate malevolent energy flew from their hands, directly striking the rift in the void, shattering the void, and obliterating the earth, fire, water, and wind energy.
However, that was enough!
In the instant the three demonic cultivators turned to defend, Feng Zichen and the others moved, each unleashing their divine powers to attack the three demonic cultivators.
Knowing he was the weakest, Feng Zichen didn't dare choose the other two demons; instead, he directly targeted the World-Destroying Daoist, unleashing his divine powers to battle him.
Feng Zichen understood that the World-Destroying Daoist's essence had been devoured by the World Tree, and without millions of years of accumulation, it would be impossible for him to recover.
Although he didn't know how the World-Destroying Daoist had attained enlightenment with such a depleted essence, Feng Zichen believed that even if he had managed to become a Great Luo Golden Immortal by chance, his strength among Great Luo Golden Immortals would be at the bottom.
