Chapter 165 The Primordial Qi of Xuanhuang
"Floating Pagoda, go!"
The World-Destroying Daoist summoned the Floating Pagoda, intending to seize Feng Zichen's true spirit, tormenting him day and night, and completely severing his life force.
However, the Floating Pagoda spun in the air for a moment, but failed to find Feng Zichen's true spirit.
"Something's wrong, where is his true spirit?"
Realizing something was amiss, the World-Destroying Daoist quickly looked towards where Feng Zichen was. He saw that Feng Zichen's shattered body suddenly transformed into wisps of chaotic energy, dissipating into the world and disappearing without a trace.
"Damn it!"
"It's an avatar!"
Roaring angrily, the World-Destroying Daoist suddenly summoned the Floating Pagoda again, blasting it into the surrounding void, shattering the surrounding space.
"Phew!"
"Luckily, I was cautious enough not to rush out recklessly. Instead, I created an avatar and sent it out to test the waters."
"Otherwise, I might not have been able to withstand those three attacks."
Ten thousand miles away, in a certain void, Feng Zichen, through the Chaos Pearl, saw the avatar's fate and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Knowing that everyone would be present when the treasure appeared, and mindful of his enmity with the World-Destroying Daoist, he dared not show himself. He had instead created an avatar to investigate, but as he witnessed, it was blasted to pieces, soul and body, by the three demonic cultivators in the blink of an eye.
The avatar was created by using the Chaos Pearl's properties to capture a fragment of his own past self and infuse it with chaotic energy.
Therefore, the avatar's aura was identical to Feng Zichen's, enough to deceive anyone.
Just as the World-Destroying Daoist was enraged, a new disturbance occurred in the center of the ancient ruins, where the treasure was hidden.
Boom!
Deep within the earth, beams of dark yellow light soared into the sky, painting the heavens in a dazzling, radiant hue.
A resounding melody echoed, the Great Dao manifested, spiritual rain fell, and order appeared amidst these magnificent phenomena.
A ball of dark yellow light slowly rose from the earth's depths, radiating a dazzling light like the sun, enveloping the entire ancient ruins.
Instantly, the collapse of the ancient ruins halted.
The moment this object appeared, a fragrant aroma permeated the air—the essence of life—causing flowers to bloom, all things to regain their vitality, and patches of green to appear on the earth.
The aura of heaven and earth flowed around this ball of dark yellow light, making it appear as high as the sky and as solid as the earth.
Furthermore, countless phenomena arose from its body, seemingly encompassing everything in the world.
"That is…"
"The Primordial Qi of Dark Yellow?!"
Upon seeing this, everyone was first stunned, then overjoyed, recognizing the object's origin.
"Xuan" represents Heaven; "Huang" represents Earth.
Xuanhuang is the mixture of Heaven and Earth; Heaven is Xuan and Earth is Huang.
The Xuanhuang Mother Qi is the origin of all things, the root of Heaven and Earth, mysterious and unpredictable. It is of great use whether for refining weapons or enhancing cultivation.
The full name of merit is Xuanhuang Merit Qi, which shows how extraordinary the Xuanhuang Mother Qi is.
"Go!"
Exchanging glances, the three demonic cultivators jointly activated the Floating Pagoda, first sealing off the area layer by layer to conceal all auras, before simultaneously reaching for the Xuanhuang Mother Qi.
"Not good!"
Seeing the Xuanhuang Mother Qi about to fall into their hands, Feng Zichen was extremely anxious, but dared not make the slightest move.
Alone, how could he be a match for three? He feared that the moment he showed himself, he would be blasted to pieces and reduced to ashes by their combined attack.
"How dare you!"
"Leave the treasure behind!"
Just then, Kuafu and Xingtian arrived from afar, raising their weapons and striking fiercely at the floating pagoda in the air.
"You're courting death!"
Noticing Xing Tian and Kua Fu's actions, Mi Tian and Mo Luo immediately abandoned the Xuanhuang Mother Qi, turned around abruptly, and jointly activated the Floating Pagoda to attack Xing Tian and Kua Fu, holding them firmly back.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the World-Destroying Daoist immediately summoned the World-Destroying Black Lotus and tried to retrieve the Xuanhuang Mother Qi.
"Hmph!"
Seeing that his helpers had arrived, Feng Zichen no longer concealed himself and suddenly leaped out of the void, summoning the Chaos Pearl to attack the World-Destroying Black Lotus.
"It's you again!"
Seeing Feng Zichen, the World-Destroying Daoist, was filled with rage. He immediately disregarded retrieving the Xuanhuang Mother Qi, summoned back the World-Destroying Black Lotus, and engaged him in battle.
On the other side, seeing the World-Destroying Daoist blocked by Feng Zichen, Mi Tian and Mo Luo used all their strength to push aside Xing Tian and Kua Fu, immediately retreating and rushing towards the Xuanhuang Mother Qi.
"Trying to leave?"
"Did you ask the axe in my hand?"
Xing Tian suddenly swung his Xing Tian Axe, its light distorting space and time, appearing before the two demonic figures and forcing them back.
"Kill!"
Turning around, Mi Tian's killing intent surged, and the Mi Tian Mirror above his head shone brightly, revealing the figures of three innate ferocious beasts, swirling with terrifying chaotic evil energy, attacking the two.
Mo Luo flipped his hand, taking out several long arrows, nocking them on the God-Slaying Bow, and firing them at the two in succession. These arrows were acquired spiritual treasures, not as powerful as acquired supreme treasures, but still incredibly terrifying.
Having spent thousands of years in the Primordial Ruins, everyone had their own experiences, and their strength had improved considerably. The slight gap from back then has not widened now.
For a time, no one could gain the upper hand, and the battle gradually reached a stalemate.
"Buzz!"
Just as everyone was deadlocked, the Xuanhuang Mother Qi suddenly moved, as if sensing something, and suddenly flew towards the Primordial World.
"Not good!"
Seeing this, everyone disregarded each other and stopped fighting, each using their own methods to grab at the Xuanhuang Mother Qi.
Feng Zichen unleashed a sweeping attack of the Five Elements Divine Light, sweeping away one-tenth of the Xuanhuang Mother Qi.
The World-Destroying Black Lotus spun, taking away another one-tenth of the Xuanhuang Mother Qi.
Xing Tian's Axe crashed down, severing one-tenth of the Xuanhuang Mother Qi.
Kuafu brandished his wooden staff, Mi Tian summoned the Mi Tian Mirror,
and Mo Luo continuously drew his bow, each taking one-tenth of the Xuanhuang Mother Qi. The remaining Xuanhuang Mother Qi trembled in the air for a moment before shattering, transforming into countless strands of Xuanhuang Qi that scattered in all directions.
"Condense!"
The World-Destroying Daoist pointed at the Floating Pagoda, its supreme Daoist aura permeating the air, forcibly fixing the scattered Xuanhuang Qi and re-condensing it into Xuanhuang Mother Qi, which he then absorbed.
However, despite the World-Destroying Daoist's swift reaction, half of the Xuanhuang Qi still merged into the void and disappeared.
"Go quickly!"
Having collected the Xuanhuang Mother Qi, the Extinction Daoist shouted to Mi Tian and the other two, then turned to leave.
"Don't go!"
"Mount Buzhou, suppress them!"
Having obtained the treasure, they wanted to leave. Feng Zichen wouldn't let them have their way. Without a second thought, he directly unleashed the Buzhou Seal, suppressing the three.
Beside him, Kuafu and Xing Tian quickly activated their bloodline power, pouring it into the illusory image of Mount Buzhou to amplify its power.
