Primordial Era: Reborn as a Qi Immortal, Steadily Cultivating

Chapter 151 Yin and Yang Qi (5k)
Ma Yuan's voice resounded from the depths of Yu Yi Xian's primordial spirit.

Its voice was not loud, but it contained an aura of majesty as if it were a decree from the heavens!
The terrifying figure of Yu Yixian, who had transformed into a golden stream of light and was about to tear apart Ao Xuan's primordial spirit body, suddenly froze in mid-air!
"Who dares to meddle in my affairs!"

In an instant, Yu Yixian's golden vertical pupils were filled with boundless killing intent, as if she had been provoked!
He suddenly raised his head, and in an instant, his divine sense swept across the void for hundreds of millions of miles, trying to find out the arrogant madman who dared to speak so disrespectfully!

However, wherever his divine sense reached, apart from the surging, angry waves and dark clouds, there was nothing at all!
"Hmph, a cowardly coward!"

Yu Yixian snorted coldly, her killing intent growing even stronger.

Without the slightest hesitation, he once again gathered the divine light of Gengjin and pecked down at Ao Xuan, who was already on the verge of death!

But it was at this very moment, high above the nine heavens.

A colossal hand, composed entirely of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and entwined with a mysterious and profound law of cause and effect, tore through the void without warning and slammed down on his massive body!
The Great Hand of Five Elements and Cause and Effect!

The moment that giant hand appeared, it caused the laws of heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles to become disordered!

A terrifying pressure, powerful enough to imprison time and space, suddenly descended, instantly sealing off all escape routes around Yu Yixian!
"not good!"

Even with the arrogance of the Winged Immortal, he felt a deadly crisis emanating from the depths of his true spirit at this moment!

He actually sensed a terrifying aura on that giant hand that was enough to threaten the origin of his Dao Fruit!
He dared not be arrogant in the slightest!

It let out a sharp, high-pitched shriek, and the golden divine feathers around its body, which were already dazzling to the extreme, shone brightly once again!

Two completely different profound Daoist auras, one black and one white, suddenly erupted from his wings without warning!
Yin and Yang energies!

Two mysterious yin and yang energies swirled around his massive body.

It happened at that critical moment.

It forcefully tore open a barely perceptible crack under the immense power of the Five Elements and Cause and Effect!

His figure swayed slightly.

It transformed into a streak of light and escaped Ma Yuan's supernatural powers.

"what?"

A soft exclamation filled with surprise drifted out from the void.

All that could be seen was the sea surface, which was already a river of blood.

A figure dressed in a simple blue robe appeared silently before Ao Xuan's enormous dragon head.

It was none other than Ma Yuan, who had come galloping all the way from Wuzhuang Temple!
He looked at the Golden-Winged Roc that had successfully dodged his casual strike, and a hint of understanding flashed in his calm eyes.

"So that's how it is... It was Yuan Feng's offspring born from sensing the Yin and Yang energies of heaven and earth."

Ma Yuan muttered to himself.

In an instant, he had already figured out the origins and background of the being before him.

This creature was born with unparalleled escape techniques that surpassed all others in the primordial world. Its noble origins also place it among the top among all the innate deities of the primordial world.

Later, during the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, he joined the Jie Sect and repeatedly caused headaches for the Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect with his supernatural powers.

While Ma Yuan was pondering, the Golden-Winged Roc Immortal who had narrowly escaped death was already experiencing a huge upheaval in his heart!

He stared intently at the Taoist priest in green robes who had suddenly appeared before him.

Those golden vertical pupils were filled with an unprecedented solemnity and apprehension!
He discovered that he couldn't see through the depth of the person in front of him at all!
In his perception, the Taoist in green robes was like an unfathomable, deep, ancient pool.

His body exuded no Taoist aura, nor did he reveal any spiritual energy.

It was as if they were completely isolated from this world.

Even with his arrogance, he understood that the person before him was a powerful being from the primordial era.

Ma Yuan, however, ignored his inner shock.

He simply reached out calmly and gently stroked Ao Xuan's already mangled dragon head.

A surge of boundless vitality and creative energy instantly flowed into Ao Xuan's body, temporarily stabilizing his already crumbling injuries.

After doing all this, he slowly raised his head, his gaze calmly falling on Yu Yixian, who had already given up.

"You beast, you have injured my mount! Do you know your crime?"

His voice was calm, yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.

"Humph!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Yixian suppressed her apprehension.

He snorted again, his innate arrogance making him unwilling to bow his head before anyone.

"I am the Golden-Winged Roc, and it is only natural for me to eat dragons. What is wrong with that?"

Having said those words, he no longer hesitated for a moment!

Its wings suddenly flapped, and the Yin and Yang energies that had been gathering power burst forth, about to transform into a stream of light and completely escape from this place of right and wrong!

Although he was arrogant, he was not stupid.

He knew that the person in front of him was someone he could not possibly defeat!

"Want to go?"

Seeing this, Ma Yuan simply performed another profound incantation on the spot.

With a slight sway, it transformed into an invisible and intangible crimson cloud.

In the blink of an eye, they caught up with the golden streak that had already fled hundreds of millions of miles away!
Red Cloud Escape Technique!
"what?!"

Yu Yixian was terrified!
He never imagined that the mysterious Taoist's escape technique was in no way inferior to his own innate supernatural ability!
It was precisely in that instant when his mind went blank!

Ma Yuan's calm voice resounded once again from the depths of his primordial spirit.

"Since you do not know your guilt, then you need not leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying aura that could make the heavens and earth change color erupted from the crimson cloud!
From the depths of the clouds, a ferocious giant hand, entirely bluish-black in color and covered with mysterious Dao patterns, silently reached out!

With this move, the world lost its color, and all laws groaned in despair!
The chaotic laws of the East Sea solidified instantly the moment this giant hand appeared!
The Divine Hand of Cause and Effect!

This is Ma Yuan's innate supernatural power!
The causal laws contained within it far surpass the Five Elements Causal Hand created by Ma Yuan himself, and are one of his true strengths.

"boom--!!!!!"

That dark blue giant hand ignored the distance in space and the obstacles of the laws.

In the blink of an eye, it appeared above the head of the Winged Immortal!

Yu Yixian felt that her primordial spirit was completely locked in by an irresistible and vast power at this moment!
No matter how hard he tried to activate the Yin-Yang wings, he could not move them even an inch!
That was an absolute suppression stemming from the level of cause and effect!
"No--!!!!"

The Winged Immortal let out a mournful cry filled with endless terror!
He could only watch helplessly as the giant, bluish-black hand slowly descended.

In the end, it was easily grasped in the palm of that giant hand and could no longer move!

No matter how much he struggled or how much he used his magic, he could not budge that giant hand even a fraction!

At this moment, he finally understood just how terrifying a being he had provoked!

He was a top-tier expert in the mid-stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

Its profound foundation is only a step away from the late stage of Taiyi.

With his innate talent and supernatural abilities in the art of escape, he believed that he was no less than the guest of Zixiao Palace, the demon master Kunpeng!

The only difference is that he was born too late and missed the supreme opportunity to preach at Zixiao Palace.

Otherwise, he might not be inferior to that Kunpeng Ancestor!

Unexpectedly, today, on this East Sea, I was captured by an unknown Taoist priest!
Ma Yuan's figure reappeared in the void.

He calmly watched the Winged Immortal struggle frantically in his palm, but ultimately to no avail, a knowing glint in his eyes.

"The Golden-Winged Roc, a rare species from the primordial era, is born extraordinary."

"Considering the difficulty of your spiritual practice, I will give you two paths to take today."

Ma Yuan's voice was flat and cold.

"Firstly, since you have a fondness for eating dragons, today I, the humble Taoist, will punish you by making you the protector of my unworthy disciple for the Three Yuan Festival, so that you may repay your karmic debt. When the term is up, you may leave."

"Secondly, I will personally send you on your way, so that your extraordinary cultivation will be completely returned to this world."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yixian's sharp eyes instantly turned blood red!

"Don't think about it!"

It let out a disdainful hiss!
"I am the Golden-Winged Roc, born to soar through the nine heavens, devouring dragons and phoenixes! This is ordained by the Heavenly Dao, a bloodline inheritance!"

"Even the lofty and supreme Primordial Saint could not easily subdue me! Let alone an unknown rogue cultivator like you hiding your face!"

The Golden-Winged Roc is born proud.

Although it was Yuan Feng who was born from comprehending the two energies of Yin and Yang.

He considered himself a born deity, not an acquired being. Even the Phoenix Clan cultivators, who were also birds, were often hunted by him. In his eyes, only the top races of the primordial world, such as dragons and phoenixes, were worthy of being regarded as food.

It is clear that with such a violent and arrogant nature, how could he possibly submit to anyone?
"Pity."

Upon hearing this, Ma Yuan simply shook his head calmly.

Those deep eyes held neither joy nor sorrow.

He knew that the golden-winged roc in front of him was a fairly good piece of rough jade.

Ultimately, they are unruly and difficult to tame, and cannot be molded.

He no longer had any intention of persuading him.

His massive, dark blue hand, which was gripping the Winged Immortal, slowly rotated in the void.

With your palm facing down, press down gently.

Buzz—! ! ! !

In an instant, the entire East China Sea trembled violently!
Deep within that dark blue palm, a millstone entirely woven from five-colored Daoist principles slowly emerged without warning!
The millstone may appear to be no bigger than the palm of your hand, but what flows on it is the innate Five Elements Great Dao, which is already perfectly harmonious and endlessly regenerating!
The millstone slowly turned, and a terrifying force, enough to obliterate all life and cause and effect, crashed down from the millstone!

The winged immortal, imprisoned in the palm of the hand, saw this five-colored millstone the instant...

Deep within his primordial spirit, an unprecedented and extreme fear finally surged forth!
Beneath that millstone, he could clearly feel that his Taiyi Golden Immortal primordial spirit had long been tempered to be indestructible and impervious to all harm.

Fine cracks began to appear inch by inch!
Its physical body still exists, but its primordial spirit is about to be forcibly and completely erased from this world under the slow rotation of this five-colored millstone!
"No...no!!!!"

The Winged Fairy let out a shrill, terrified scream!
He couldn't understand how he could have simply hunted down a small Golden Immortal Dragon in the East Sea.

To think that I would inexplicably provoke such a terrifying being who is ruthless and decisive, and whose cultivation is so profound that it is beyond comprehension!
He regretted it.

However, there is ultimately no cure for regret in this world.

"Snap—!!!!!"

Accompanied by a shattering sound originating from the deepest part of the primordial spirit.

Yu Yixian's already cracked Taiyi primordial spirit was crushed under the five-colored millstone.

It completely transformed into countless points of light, vanishing into nothingness!

His cultivation, which had already reached the Taiyi realm, was now entirely returned to this primordial world.

Finally, the last trace of Yu Yixian's primordial spirit was completely obliterated under the millstone.

The dark blue-green divine hand of cause and effect slowly dissipated into nothingness from the void.

A massive, still radiant with precious light, roc-like demonic body slowly descended from the high sky.

Each of its feathers seemed to be forged by divine metal, exuding a powerful aura of metal.

Seeing this, Ma Yuan simply raised his right hand and casually waved it in front of him.

The enormous, mountain-like Peng bird demon body was easily stored in his sleeve in a flash of light.

The body of this Golden-Winged Roc contains precious innate Yin and Yang energies.

Whether used for refining weapons or for refining pills, it is a top-tier divine material that is extremely rare and hard to come by in this primordial world.

For him, it was a rather unexpected gain, neither too big nor too small.

After doing all this, Ma Yuan slowly turned around.

His gaze fell on Ao Xuan, who had already transformed into human form and whose aura was extremely weak.

"You worthless disciple, what has caused you to provoke such a wicked star?" Ma Yuan's voice returned to its usual calm.

Upon hearing this, Ao Xuan's pale face was instantly filled with shame.

He respectfully bowed to Ma Yuan.

"This disciple...this disciple is incompetent and has brought shame upon Master!"

His voice was hoarse and filled with self-reproach.

He immediately recounted the whole story of his feud with Yu Yixian.

Having found an opportunity deep in the East Sea and greatly improved his cultivation, he couldn't help but feel a bit arrogant and complacent, and acted ostentatiously on his way back.

Finally, on a fairy island, a few words of argument led to a dispute.

And thus, they formed a feud with the Winged Immortals who had long been entrenched there.

Ma Yuan listened quietly, his face remaining completely expressionless.

Only after Ao Xuan finished speaking did he slowly nod.

“Every failure is a learning experience.”

"The vast wilderness is teeming with hidden dragons and crouching tigers, far beyond our imagination. In the future, we must remember the lesson of today and never again be arrogant or complacent."

"Yes, disciple will remember Master's teachings!" Ao Xuan kowtowed again.

It was at this time.

"Boom—!!!!!"

The sea below, which had become turbulent due to the battle just now, suddenly parted from the middle to both sides without warning!

A sacred and majestic dragon's might soared into the sky, its aura far surpassing that of Ao Xuan by countless degrees!

A golden dragon, several times larger than Ao Xuan and covered in ancient dragon scales, burst forth from the deep sea!

As soon as the dragon emerged from the water, it transformed into a middle-aged man dressed in a magnificent dragon robe with a dignified face.

The newcomer was none other than Ao Guang, the master of the East Sea Dragon Palace!

The earth-shattering battle just now had already swept across the seas spanning hundreds of millions of miles.

As the ruler of the East Sea, he naturally noticed it immediately.

He sensed that an extremely pure aura of dragon bloodline had been robbed, and concerned for the safety of his clan, he rushed over.

As soon as he appeared, he was terrified by the terrifying Daoist aura that had not yet completely dissipated in the void!

His gaze swept across the area, and when he saw the heavily injured Black Dragon Ao Xuan, and the green-robed Taoist who felt extremely familiar to him, he was struck by the sight.

In an instant, his majestic dragon eyes were filled with unbelievable shock!

"Master Ma... Master Ma Yuan?!"

Ao Guang cried out in surprise, his voice filled with astonishment and uncertainty.

Although Ma Yuan's aura and appearance had changed drastically, he did not try to conceal his identity, so Ao Guang still recognized him.

How could he forget that several eons ago, it was this mysterious immortal who called himself Ma Yuan of Skull Mountain who visited the Dragon Palace with a black dragon of mixed bloodlines, offering a great treasure in exchange for the opportunity to leap over the Dragon Gate?

At the time, he felt that this person was extraordinary and had accumulated merit.

However, he only regarded him as a True Immortal of Fortune and Virtue at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, someone worth befriending.

Unexpectedly, the other party's cultivation level has now reached a point where he can no longer see through it.

"Dragon King, how have you been?" Ma Yuan smiled calmly and returned the greeting.

"Daoist Master!" Ao Guang hurriedly stepped forward and solemnly bowed to Ma Yuan, his respectful demeanor far surpassing that of his younger days!

"What powerful beings were fighting here just now? They left behind such terrifying killing intent! And nephew Ao Xuan, what are you doing…?"

Looking at Ao Xuan's miserable injuries and recalling the lingering terrifying aura, his heart was filled with turmoil.

Ma Yuan did not hide anything, but calmly said, "It was just a blind, hairy beast that offended my unworthy disciple. I have already killed it with a few blows."

"A hairy beast?" Ao Guang was taken aback upon hearing this.

Suddenly realizing something, his expression changed drastically!
He could clearly feel that what remained on Ao Xuan's wound was an extremely domineering innate Geng metal energy, as well as a faint trace of Yin-Yang Dao charm!

Such an aura can only be found in this primordial world by the Golden-Winged Roc, which feeds on dragons.

"Could it be the Golden-Winged Roc?" Ao Guang's voice trembled slightly, unable to be concealed.

Seeing this, Ma Yuan understood and calmly said, "It seems that the Dragon King knows that beast very well."

"It's more than just profound knowledge!" Upon hearing this, Ao Guang's face revealed a hint of bitterness and resentment.

"To be honest, Daoist Master, since its birth, that monstrous beast has been entrenched in the East Sea. Relying on its unparalleled escape techniques and powerful supernatural abilities, it has wantonly preyed on the descendants of my dragon race. Over tens of thousands of years, countless dragon sons and grandsons have died tragically under its claws!"

"Our dragon clan has launched several campaigns to besiege and suppress him, but he has always managed to escape easily with his incredible speed, resulting in the loss of many soldiers and generals. Over time, he has become a stubborn problem in the East Sea that is difficult to eradicate!"

Upon realizing this, Ao Guang solemnly bowed deeply to Ma Yuan.

"Ao Guang of the East Sea pays respects to Immortal Ma Yuan! Immortal Ma Yuan has slain this fiend, removing a great threat to our East Sea Dragon Clan. Ao Guang and the millions of aquatic creatures of the East Sea will never forget this great kindness!"
