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

Chapter 131 Zhunti: Holy crap, Hongjun Daozu is gone?

When Taihao descended, everything in the entire underworld, whether it existed or not, came to a standstill!

However, to be honest, what arrived first was not Taihao's physical body, but a wisp of his aura!

This aura was incredibly terrifying.

This single thread brought everything in the underworld to a standstill!

This also abruptly calmed down the three corpses that were already on the verge of exploding!

It was as if everything was frightened by this aura.

All of this naturally includes Jieyin and Zhunti.

At this moment, when the divine sense swept over the two of them along with that aura, their pupils shrank and their backs felt cold, as if they were facing Taihao before they had even attained enlightenment.

This feeling left both of them feeling powerless.

It seemed that this mere aura was enough to render the two powerless to resist, and even made them want to flee in panic.

Pingxin is also very strong, surpassing either of the two of them, but at least he still has weaknesses, and the gap between them is not that big.

However, the owner of this aura filled Jieyin and Zhunti with despair, and they could not muster any will to resist.

"With just a wisp of power, there could be such a terrifying being. Besides Master Hongjun, there is no one else who could possess such power..."

Zhunti's mind was in turmoil; the word "horrified" was insufficient to describe it.

Jieyin appeared calm on the surface, but he wasn't much better off in reality. There was fear in his eyes, and his inner thoughts were similar to those of Zhunti.

Clearly, they were also shocked by this momentum.

At this moment, the three-corpse clones that the two were preparing to self-destruct not only stopped abruptly, but also reverted to their original state due to some inexplicable changes.

That is, just before it was about to self-destruct.

Even so, Zhunti and Jieyin's three corpses were unable to move.

More importantly, their physical bodies were also unable to move, clearly intimidated by the aura.

Although Taihao has not yet broken through to the peak of Hunyuan, his spirit and energy have improved after defeating Hongjun. Although his cultivation level has not increased, it is obviously different from other times.

As for mastering laws such as the laws of destiny, that's not that important.

At the same time, there is another reason.

This reason is also related to Hongjun.

Because Hongjun had already been defeated, his main body had collapsed and he had fled, regardless of the Lesser Primordial World.

Its influence on the Taihao Realm has also decreased to an extreme level.

Before this, the Taihao Realm would always be affected to some extent, no matter what.

After Hongjun's defeat and retreat, this influence vanished without a trace.

Naturally, Taihao's power and prestige became even stronger.

After all, there's less interference.

How strong was Taihao's aura?

It was so powerful that even a mere wisp of its aura was enough to separate the chaotic energy into two distinct energies: clear and turbid.

Now, Taihao's spirit and energy have improved once again, and his aura has grown even stronger, reaching an extremely terrifying level!

Therefore, it is quite normal that Jieyin and Zhunti could not withstand it.

But Pingxin's reaction was completely different from the two of them.

Although Pingxin wasn't as calm as before, she wasn't indescribably shocked either; instead, her pretty face showed obvious joy.

"senior!"

Pingxin shouted it out.

Right after she finished shouting, Taihao's figure slowly emerged from the void.

With each step he took, his aura grew stronger, and his posture became more solid.

Correspondingly, the fear in the eyes of Jieyin and Zhunti was even greater.

They all shouted out the name of the newcomer in unison.

"Taihao Daozun!"

Who would have thought that when they thought they had it all figured out, Taihao would suddenly appear and put so much pressure on them?

And when they realized who it was, Taihao suddenly emerged from the void.

Along with it came his voice.

"So it was you who caused trouble in my Taihao Realm's Underworld?"

The sound was incredibly vast and powerful.

When it appeared, Jieyin and Zhunti had a faint feeling that the Great Dao had descended. Although the two knew that this feeling was probably an illusion, since no matter how strong Taihao was, he could not be on the same level as the Great Dao, at least not now.

But this is enough to illustrate how terrifying Taihao was.

After all, if he weren't strong, Taihao would never have given the two the illusion of facing the Great Dao.

In this situation, the two of them had no idea what to say when Taihao asked them questions, and they wanted to respond with silence.

However, the pressure from Taihao was too great, so even if the two didn't want to speak, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and talk.

"Daoist Master, my senior brother and I have come here not to cause trouble, but rather..."

"But what?"

Taihao raised an eyebrow, suddenly curious about what Zhunti would say.

After all, with such an obvious fact right in front of him, if he could still blatantly lie, even Taihao would have to admit his mistake.

What are you sighing about?

I'm amazed at how shameless Zhunti is.

The next moment, Zhunti gave his answer.

His answer, just as Taihao had expected, could only be described in three words.

That is……

shameless!

Zhunti didn't hesitate for long before answering.

"It's to help the wandering souls here find peace and lighten the burden on the underworld. However, Fellow Daoist Pingxin seems unwilling to accept this. In that case, my senior brother and I will depart now!"

Taihao almost laughed out of anger at Zhunti's words.

How shameless must one be to say something like that?

He clearly coveted the underworld, but he insisted on claiming it was for the good of the underworld.

Whether he said it or not is no longer important.

Because no matter what he said, Taihao was not prepared to let him go.

So in the next instant, Taihao let out a soft snort, displaying unparalleled power, causing Jieyin and Zhunti to vomit blood simultaneously in an instant.

The two were already overwhelmed by just a cold snort.

However, this is just the beginning.

In the next instant, Taihao's magical power flowed, and he didn't even display any supernatural abilities. He simply used his magical power to conjure a golden handprint.

They were completely subdued and unable to move!

It was only then that the two realized how vast the gap was between themselves and Taihao.

It's so big that it can only be described with one word.

A world apart!

The difference between a cultivation level approaching the peak of the Primordial Chaos realm and the initial stage of the Primordial Chaos realm was vividly demonstrated at this moment.

Whether you use your aura or your magic power directly, there is no difference in the result, since neither Jieyin nor Zhunti can switch hands.

The difference lies only in the process.

It's just that one is fast and the other is slow.

Taihao clearly didn't want to waste any more words with them, so he directly used his magic to conjure a giant hand, and then with a gentle flip, he suppressed Jieyin and Zhunti.

Throughout the entire process, neither of them offered any resistance.

It wasn't that they didn't want to resist, but that they couldn't. They were not only intimidated by Taihao's power, but also by the power of laws contained within Taihao's magic!

To say that Taihao is the "Dao" itself might be a bit of an exaggeration.

But it is absolutely possible to say that it is the embodiment of "Tao".

Since it is the embodiment of the Dao, then every corner of its body, every place, and even the magical power within its body should bear the shadow of the Dao.

In concrete terms, this manifests as laws!

Now, if Taihao wants to unleash any law, he doesn't need to go through the trouble of using magic power to simulate it. The composition of his magic power is even the law itself!

The golden blood flowing through his body, the water plants can be said to be the long river of Daoist energy!

Under such circumstances, it would only take a thought for Taihao to decide which law to use.

When magical power arises, the laws manifest!

At this moment, the golden hand seal that simultaneously trapped Jieyin and Zhunti was composed entirely of magical power based on laws!

Moreover, there is not just one such rule, but many.

More importantly, among these laws, there are five top-level laws and one supreme law!

Leaving aside the other laws, even just considering these six laws, or any one of them, one can say that they possess unimaginable power.

Looking at the entire history of chaos, perhaps only Taihao and Pangu could have achieved this.

Pangu needs no introduction; he is undoubtedly the one closest to the Great Dao in the chaos of ancient and modern times.

However, apart from him, no other cultivator could comprehend so many laws as Taihao, and many of them were advanced laws.

Similarly, if someone could reach this level, their strength would be incredibly terrifying.

For example, the Taihao Kingdom today is like that.

With just his magical power, he was able to suppress two powerful beings of the Primordial Chaos Realm.

In fact, let alone two, even if there were three more, including the Three Pure Ones, that would be five Hunyuan, Taihao could still suppress them with his magic power.

Not to mention Zhunti and Jieyin.

These two alone could not possibly withstand it.

Even if Taihao only used a single strand of magic power.

However, on the other hand, magical power containing laws is actually no different from supernatural powers.

With this magical power present, it's normal for the two to be suppressed; it would be abnormal if they weren't!

The moment the golden handprint descended, Zhunti and Jieyin felt as if they were covered by the laws, completely unable to move.

These laws are extremely complex, covering the two of them from every angle.

For example, time, space, and causality.

There was even a fate that shocked the two of them!

fate?

Isn't this the signature move of Dao Ancestor Hongjun?

When did Taihao learn this skill?

As they were suppressed by the golden handprint, a question arose in both of their minds: the law of destiny!

With their cultivation levels, Jieyin and Zhunti naturally could not know what was happening in the chaos.

However, when Hongjun was defeated, the two of them still sensed something in the darkness.

What the two sensed was not the news of Hongjun's defeat, but the changes within themselves.

As Hongjun fled into the outer chaos, the two of them simultaneously felt a lightness on their bodies, as if the things that had been surrounding them had vanished in an instant.

That change was extremely subtle.

If the two hadn't possessed cultivation levels reaching the Mixed Origin realm, they probably wouldn't have noticed the change.

Furthermore, if the two of them are even slightly distracted, it will be difficult for them to notice.

Because the change was so subtle, the two who were still engaged in a battle of wits with Pingxin didn't think about it too deeply or take it to heart.

But at this moment, after discovering the laws of fate within Taihao's magical power, the two first looked puzzled, and then their puzzled expressions turned into extreme fear.

Further calculations led to an even more terrifying conclusion.

What conclusion?

Hongjun has been defeated!

The laws of destiny are not so easily comprehended, especially in the long river of destiny, where one is also influenced by Hongjun, making it even more difficult.

Adding to that slight change, and considering their calculations of the Lesser Primordial World and Hongjun's situation, the two concluded that Hongjun had already been defeated.

Doesn't this mean...?

Hongjun is gone?

At the same time, this also means that the two may continue to be suppressed by Taihao in this way.

Should the suppression continue indefinitely?

Thinking of this, the two couldn't help but feel terrified.
