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

Chapter 21: The Three Clans' Reign Ends, Taihao Emerges as the Biggest Winner

"The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation has actually been broken!"

"Just who is Fellow Daoist Taihao? The three of us were unable to subdue the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, so how was he able to break it single-handedly?"

"And what exactly is that mysterious and ancient bell he summoned? Could it be a primordial treasure?!"

"No! Fellow Daoist Taihao seems to possess another supreme treasure! That thing surrounded by thousands of strands of primordial yellow energy, could it be the Measuring Ruler of Heaven?"

"Fellow Daoist Taihao, what good fortune! What incredible power!"

At this moment, both Qiankun and Yinyang gasped in surprise, clearly not expecting such a dramatic turn of events.

He was overjoyed.

At the same time, they were also shocked by Taihao's strength.

They're both at the late stage of Quasi-Saint, so how can there be such a huge difference in their strength?

It should be noted that neither Qiankun, Yin Yang, nor Hongjun could do anything about the Zhuxian Sword Formation. Moreover, they even risked their lives within the formation.

But at this moment, this seemingly invincible and deadly formation was broken by Taihao!

How could they not be shocked?

This includes Hongjun as well!

Hongjun realized that he had underestimated Taihao. Although Taihao broke the formation from outside, unlike them who were inside and restricted in every way, it was enough to demonstrate Taihao's strength.

In particular, that supernatural power that intertwines the laws of time and causality possesses unimaginable might!

This also means that Taihao has mastered at least two top-level laws!

Compared to the shock brought by the laws, the innate treasures were not so surprising, after all, neither Hongjun nor Luohou possessed more than one treasure.

However, at this moment, Rahu's attention was not on his supernatural powers or Taihao's treasures, but on dealing with the situation that had been reversed in an instant.

Although the Zhuxian Sword Formation was only broken for a moment, that one moment was enough for Hongjun and the others to seize the opportunity!

Therefore, even though Luo Hou spat out a mouthful of blood essence and used great strength to summon back the Zhuxian Sword through a blood sacrifice, he could no longer trap the three quasi-saints in the formation as before.

This means that Rahu will be besieged by four quasi-saints at the same time!

For a moment, Rahu was at a complete disadvantage, his hair disheveled, his robes stained with blood, and even his undying true spirit seemed to be becoming unstable.

At this moment, Hongjun's voice rang out, utterly indifferent.

"Rahu, the sword formation has been broken. Your greatest reliance is gone! The outcome of this battle is already decided!"

"Hmph! Whether I will be defeated or not is none of your business! And even if I perish here, you will not easily attain the Primordial Chaos Realm!"

Luo Hou snorted coldly, then looked at Taihao, a hint of understanding appearing in his fierce expression.

"So that's how it is. You're the extra candidate! No wonder you were able to break through my Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!"

"But if you think that defeating me will allow you to surpass Hongjun and attain the Primordial Chaos Realm, then I can only say you're incredibly naive!"

"In the end, fate may not favor you!"

Taihao's expression was strange.

What is this all about? Trying to sow discord?

"Who said I need the favor of Heaven? My ambition lies in the Chaos Realm, unlike you who would instigate a cataclysmic calamity in the primordial world just to prove your Dao!"

"What! You don't want to be the spokesperson for Heaven's Way?"

Luo Hou understood Taihao's meaning, and then his expression became even more unpleasant.

He originally thought that Taihao had the same goal as him, but he didn't expect that it was completely different.

Doesn't this mean that if he had been on good terms with Taihao, the current situation might have been completely different?

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs," and Taihao could not help Luohou.

Because the two have vastly different ideas and ways of doing things, they are even completely opposite.

One is to slaughter the common people and spread evil.

The other is one who benefits all living beings and brings blessings to the world, representing the righteous spirit of heaven and earth.

If Hongjun hadn't taken human form earlier, Taihao and Luohou might have been mortal enemies!

Therefore, there is absolutely no possibility of the two of them cooperating!

In an instant, Rahu understood everything, and his expression changed from angry and fierce to somewhat detached.

Moreover, his momentum was also rising steadily.

The malevolent energy that permeated the entire primordial world was now being drawn into his body by his own energy, through the supreme killing treasure, the God-Slaying Spear, and even his cultivation level was rising!

In a short while, he had already broken through the peak of Quasi-Saint and had one foot in the Primordial Chaos realm!

"Luo Hou, you..." Hongjun looked horrified, as if he had thought of something, but before he could finish speaking, Luo Hou's voice rang out again.

"Hmph! Although my defeat is inevitable, the two of you are not necessarily guaranteed to win!"

"I will make you all perish with me! If I cannot attain enlightenment, then you can forget about it either!"

But the next moment, Luo Hou's expression changed drastically, and he became so angry that he was almost out of control!

He looked at Taihao and said through gritted teeth.

"It's you again! You actually severed my connection with the main spiritual vein of the West!"

"Otherwise, why do you think I'd be so late?"

Taihao looked completely at ease, then retreated rapidly. The Chaos Bell, the Primordial Measuring Ruler, the Golden Lotus of Merit, the Golden Wheel of Merit, and all his magical techniques and supernatural powers unleashed their power, creating an unimaginable defensive line.

Why do this?

Is there even a question?

It's definitely about to self-destruct!

This guy is a madman. He cultivates the laws of slaughter and destruction. He not only wants to kill all things and destroy the primordial world, but when he gets ruthless, he won't even spare himself!

"I... hate it!"

Luo Hou looked up at the sky and sighed, because Taihao had severed his connection with several major spiritual veins in the west, so that he could no longer use the spiritual veins to introduce more evil energy into his body in order to improve his cultivation.

His idea was simple: to truly enter the Primordial Chaos realm before he died and experience just how terrifying that realm was.

But with the arrival of Taihao, all of this vanished.

But only half a step into the Primordial Chaos realm...

That should be enough to drag a few people down with it, right?

"All Heavenly Evil Aura, Explode!"

The next instant, the entire area returned to chaos!

At the same moment, just as Rahu self-destructed, in another battlefield in the distant primordial world, the ancestors of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin races simultaneously stopped fighting and looked up.

What are you looking at?

Heaven!

To be precise, it is the vague and elusive will of Heaven.

Although they could not see the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao, nor could they communicate with it, they could still sense the existence of the Heavenly Dao's will thanks to their peak Quasi-Saint cultivation and their boundless fortune.

But at this moment, something happened that silenced the ancestors of the three races.

They suddenly realized that the will of Heaven, which they could vaguely sense before, had become blurred and even more elusive!

What does this mean?

Is the will of Heaven fading away?

of course not!

Even if all three races were wiped out, the Heavenly Dao would not be affected in any way.

It can only be...

The fortunes that belong to their three clans are fading away!

And it flew away at breakneck speed!

The three ancestors were all extraordinary beings who could govern the world. Although their fortunes were waning, their realms had not declined. Therefore, as long as one was willing to investigate, one could easily calculate what had happened without expending much effort.

Not to mention the three progenitors of the races, who were still in perfect harmony at this moment.

Before long, the three clan ancestors were fully aware of the reason why their fortunes were rapidly diminishing.

"Not only did Rahu self-destruct, but he also 'ignited' the primordial evil energy?"

"The raging, malevolent energy is so overwhelming that no one below the Great Luo level can withstand it! Once this malevolent energy enters the body, one will instantly transform into a ferocious beast, a mindless monster that only knows how to kill. Even our three races are not immune!"

"If this continues, even if we manage to determine a victor, there won't be many of our people left!"

Moreover, at this moment, there is absolutely no possibility of a winner being decided.

Because everyone wants to win.

This can continue, and the outcome is predictable.

"The mandate of heaven is not in my hands. I, the First Qilin, wish to lead the Qilin clan to eternally guard the primordial Central Plains, transforming into auspicious omens to pray for the heavens and earth and dispel the evil aura! I hope the heavens will bear witness!"

After he finished speaking, thunder rumbled in the sky, but no thunderclouds appeared.

Clearly, Heaven has already granted its request.

However, a great oath to Heaven is not something that can be made at will, especially without great fortune or merit. If one does not pay a price, Heaven will not respond.

At this moment, the Qilin's original fortune had long since vanished, and it could no longer be called a great fortune.

As for merit...

He has no idea how much he has incurred; he must have immense karmic burden!

The next moment, the Yuanfeng unfolded its true form and let out a cry that resonated throughout the heavens.

"By the will of Heaven, I, Yuan Feng, vow to lead the Phoenix Clan to eternally guard the Southern Immortal Volcano to suppress the evil energy. May Heaven grant my decree!"

On the other side, when Zu Long saw this scene, he also sighed deeply, knowing that the matter was beyond saving.

He ultimately lost!

The Dragon Clan may just be as Taihao predicted, falling from its position as the most powerful clan in the primordial world into the abyss!

"That's enough!"

"Our ancestral dragon, I vow to lead my dragon race to eternally defend the four seas and the primordial world, to purify the evil energy and restore peace to the primordial realm! May Heaven grant our judgment!"

Similarly, after the two progenitors swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao, their magical power, cultivation, and true spirit began to dissipate along with their destiny, in order to fulfill their great oath.

The difference is that before dissipating, the Ancestral Dragon spat out his Dragon Pearl and made it transform into a stream of light that flew away into the distance, along with his collection of dragons stored within the Dragon Pearl.

"Fellow Daoist Taihao, our Dragon Clan does not ask for your constant assistance, but only hopes that when we are desperate, we can have someone to talk to. Please!"

Immediately, three sounds, some roaring and some howling, resounded throughout the heavens and earth. The souls of the ancestors of the three races returned to the primordial wilderness, and the malevolent aura gradually subsided and then faded away.

The great tribulation is almost over.

Thus, the era of the three races came to an end!

As for the fortune that was separated from the three races, where did it go...?

"What's going on with this incredible fortune? Why has my luck suddenly increased dozens of times?"

The west.

Before Taihao could recover from the aftermath of the explosion, he suddenly received a message that left him completely bewildered and shocked Hongjun.

As for Qiankun and Yin Yang...

They were no longer able to express their opinions, because they, already wounded by the Tao, had been dragged into the mess by Rahu.

In other words, he was killed in the explosion.

Taihao was completely bewildered to discover that his luck was increasing rapidly!

In just this short time, he has already achieved dozens of times more than before, and there is no sign of him stopping. It is as if the entire fortune of the primordial world is about to be temporarily bestowed upon him!

It gave him the feeling that he could step into the Primordial Chaos Realm at any time.

What?

Is this my way of attaining enlightenment?

How could this happen?

"I really don't want to become a Heavenly Saint!"
