Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I am the Ancestor of Stars.

Chapter 125 The Destiny Demon God, the Chaos Earthworm

When Hongjun revealed his backup plan, Taihao's heart skipped a beat, thinking that Hongjun was about to use some ultimate move.

Unexpectedly, Hongjun's so-called backup plan was actually to run away!

This was something Taihao hadn't expected.

Even if Hongjun wanted to escape, Taihao did not want to let him go, or rather, he did not want to let him go so easily. If he could make him perish completely, that would be the best thing.

If things are beyond saving and Hongjun cannot be stopped from escaping, he must be made to pay an extremely heavy price, otherwise Taihao will not stop.

It's not that Taihao was afraid of Hongjun.

However, Hongjun was too mysterious. His origins and his plans had always been a secret, and everything was just Taihao's speculation.

Although Taihao made many guesses, very few of them were actually confirmed.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Taihao did not want to spare Hongjun's life.

If possible, it would be best to let it perish here completely.

Therefore, before Hongjun's secret technique was activated, Taihao suddenly increased his magical output, and the Law of Power began to roar and resound in an instant!

Moreover, in the next instant, Taihao's twelve-grade essence, energy, and spirit blossomed, and a drop of crimson-gold blood slowly oozed from it.

This is the essence and blood of Taihao!

And it's his very essence!

This blood, even Taihao only had three drops of, which was formed from the condensation of his Dao Fruit cultivation since he took human form, and he had never used it since taking human form.

Clearly, Taihao spared no expense in order to kill Hongjun.

The essence of the heart is a higher form of essence than ordinary essence.

While cultivators occasionally use their essence blood in combat, their heart essence blood is extremely rare.

Firstly, very few cultivators can condense their heart essence blood. It is basically impossible for cultivators below the Quasi-Saint level, and even among cultivators above the Quasi-Saint level, not everyone can condense it.

The three elements of essence, energy, and spirit cannot be fully formed if any one of them is not up to standard.

Taihao's essence, energy, and spirit are beyond doubt.

Although the primordial spirit is relatively weaker than the blood and physical body, it is still not comparable to that of ordinary cultivators.

Therefore, he was able to condense his heart's essence and blood.

In contrast, Hongjun was unable to condense his heart's essence.

However, although he failed to condense it, it does not mean that he was unaware of the power of the essence of the heart.

On the contrary, Hongjun, who survived from the creation of the world by Pangu, knew very well how terrifyingly powerful the divine abilities would be amplified with the blessing of this blood.

Because the essence and blood of the heart are obtained through the condensation of vital energy and spirit.

It is almost equivalent to the cultivator himself, and is also the transformation of his Dao fruit.

Therefore, in a sense, using the mind to continue is not much different from self-destruction!

Furthermore, because the essence of one's heart and blood is used for supernatural powers, it can amplify those powers, unlike self-destruction which is uncontrollable.

Therefore, it can even be said that using one's life essence is more powerful than simply self-destructing!

That's why Hongjun's expression turned terrified at this moment, and he even gasped.

Then, the speed at which the secret technique is activated becomes even faster.

In the next instant, Hongjun's aura and presence weakened to an extreme degree, but this was not due to Taihao's divine power, but rather his own choice.

Is Hongjun intentionally making himself weaker?

Taihao, whose doubts had just arisen, quickly discerned the clues from Hongjun's changes.

He wasn't weakening himself, but rather using a secret technique to divide himself into countless selves.

Is Hongjun actually splitting apart?

Taihao suddenly realized.

At the same time, he also had a vague suspicion in his mind.

If nothing unexpected happens, the parts that he split off should be able to be recovered. Although they won't be fully restored, it's still better than being completely destroyed by Taihao here.

Moreover, if one splits off and escapes to various parts of the chaos, the survival rate will be much higher.

Soon, Taihao understood Hongjun's thoughts.

Then the flow of magical power changed, unleashing a completely different supernatural ability.

This supernatural power is based primarily on reincarnation, with time and cause and effect serving as secondary considerations.

With the added blessing of the Great Dao of Power, its power was terrifying beyond measure.

But mere power was not what Taihao desired; he also wanted the effect of this divine ability so that he could use it to see through Hongjun!

It only takes a moment.

Taihao discerned Hongjun's true form, unraveling the mystery that had puzzled him for many years.

"His true form is actually... an earthworm?"

Chaotic earthworm!

After Taihao understood Hongjun's plan, he changed his mind and altered the supernatural power he was preparing to use.

He originally planned to use the Dao River and his heart's essence to activate the divine power of the laws, so as to deliver a fatal blow to Hongjun.

Let it disappear completely into nothingness.

But doing this is just too difficult.

Even though Taihao had already offered up his lifeblood, he could not be completely certain of success.

Because who knows how many trump cards Hongjun still has to use to escape?

And even if every one of Hongjun's clones were to perish.

Taihao himself would probably have some doubts.

There was nothing we could do; our opponent was Hongjun.

It was with this in mind that Taihao changed his mind.

He decided to use the power of reincarnation as the main force to unleash his supernatural abilities.

At the same time, it is supplemented by time and causality.

The sole purpose was to take advantage of Hongjun's weakened divine defenses after splitting into countless individuals, in order to use these three laws to gain insight into Hongjun's past.

Since we cannot completely eradicate it, let's investigate its past, understand our enemy and ourselves, and then find another opportunity to completely eliminate it in the future!

It was fine if we didn't investigate, but what we found was quite shocking.

Taihao was shocked by the first piece of information he had received.

Taihao rarely showed the emotion of "shock".

This reveals Taihao's true feelings after discovering Hongjun's true form.

Perhaps even the word "shocking" is insufficient to describe it.

Because Hongjun's true form was truly astonishing to Taihao.

He never imagined that Hongjun's true form was actually an earthworm!

What is an earthworm?

It's an earthworm!

Hongjun's true form is actually an earthworm?

Of course, that's not quite accurate, but he was an existence that lived from chaos until the beginning of creation, so he must have some mysterious aspects.

So to be precise, it should be called Chaos Cricket Wax.

"No wonder this thing could still be alive and kicking after splitting into countless parts; its original form was actually this thing?"

"That makes sense!"

"If it were any other living being, it would probably have been completely annihilated, body and soul by now!"

After all, not every living being can maintain its consciousness from being divided even after splitting into so many parts.

It must be said that being able to divide oneself into so many forms without suffering too much damage is a talent.

How many parts did Hongjun divide himself into?

Even Taihao himself couldn't count them all, because the number was simply too great, outrageously so.

It should be noted that Taihao's current cultivation level is at the late stage of Hunyuan, approaching the peak of Hunyuan.

With a mere flick of his divine sense, he could pierce through the chaos between the Taihao Realm and the Lesser Primordial World, and even have ample energy left to investigate the situation of both primordial worlds.

Therefore, he can detect an extraordinary amount of information in a single thought.

Even so, he still couldn't find out how many clones Hongjun had.

This shows just how terrifying the number of clones Hongjun created was!

Understanding Hongjun's true form was only the first piece of information that Taihao discovered.

This information is certainly important, because only after understanding its true nature can Taihao prescribe the right remedy.

In addition, other information is equally important.

For example, Hongjun's experiences before the creation of the world!

Hongjun divided himself into countless small parts. Although this could increase the survival rate and preserve his strength as much as possible, it also gave Taihao an opportunity to investigate Hongjun's past.

This includes his experiences before the creation of the world.

Although the experience was incomplete and had many omissions, it still yielded a lot of useful information.

"Hongjun isn't actually the God of Destiny? Instead, after the creation of the world, he seized the essence of the God of Destiny, which is why he's so powerful and defies the laws of destiny!"

"Indeed, it would be far too bizarre if the God of Fate were an earthworm!"

"So, Hongjun's Law of Destiny advanced by leaps and bounds after absorbing the essence of the God of Destiny?"

Taihao gradually sorted out the information and pieced together a relatively obvious clue.

Before the creation of the world, Hongjun was probably also a Chaos Demon God, but not a top-tier Chaos Demon God.

They weren't even high-level Chaos Gods.

But he was extremely lucky and cultivated his true spirit into a primordial spirit.

Thus, he had the possibility of surviving an immeasurable calamity. In addition, his survival skills were first-rate, and he actually accomplished something that even the top-level Chaos Demon God could not do.

Thus, they lived from the beginning of time until the primordial era.

Not only that, he even took the opportunity to devour the essence of the God of Destiny when it died, which is why he was able to comprehend the laws of destiny so dramatically and quickly.

So much so that by unlocking this law, one can control the river of destiny!
