Primordial Era: I, the Spiritual Stone Monkey, was born ahead of schedule to seize the throne.

Chapter 60 The Fall of Hongyun: A Desire to Seize Qitian

In fact, Hongyun was not the first Quasi-Saint to self-destruct in the prehistoric world.

In the past, the Daoist Ancestor Hongjun and the Demon Ancestor Luohou fought for the opportunity to attain enlightenment.

A fierce battle broke out between the two sides.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun invited many friends to engage in a fierce battle with Rahu.

During that great battle, both the Reversal Ancestor and the Yin-Yang Ancestor self-destructed.

That was the first time a Quasi-Saint had self-destructed in the primordial world.

The terrifying energy severely damaged the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

It also turned the surrounding tens of millions of miles into a desolate wasteland.

From that time onward, the creatures of the primordial world witnessed the terrifying power of a quasi-saint's self-destruction.

It was no less than a blow from a saint.

Therefore,

Hongyun's self-destruction has alarmed all the powerful beings in the prehistoric world.

A series of surprised and uncertain gazes peered through the void towards this place.

"That is..."

"That's terrifying!"

"Has the sage made a move?"

"Ah! It's Hongyun! Hongyun self-destructed!"

"What?!!"

As one person screamed, the others also discovered the broken fragments of the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd on the battlefield.

And the spatial law fluctuations remaining in the void.

"Whoosh!"

Everyone looked horrified.

They could hardly imagine what kind of desperate situation could force a quasi-saint to self-destruct.

When the numerous powerful beings discovered several figures thousands of miles away, they were once again in uproar:

"It's Donghuang Taiyi!"

"And there's Fuxi and Kunpeng!"

"The River Styx is here too!"

"That's... Qi Tian!"

At that moment, everyone understood.

"Primordial Purple Qi!"

However, Hongyun was a disciple accepted by the Dao Ancestor.

Now that the Dao Ancestor has been killed, he hasn't responded at all.

Doesn't that mean...?

Thinking of this, many people were immediately tempted, but looking at the five figures exuding powerful auras...

And the surrounding world destroyed by the self-destruction of the red cloud.

All the nascent thoughts were forcibly suppressed.

The stuff is good, but you have to be alive to get it.

Just then, Qi Tian's pupils contracted, and he coughed heavily.

"Ahem, um..."

Taiyi, Minghe, Fuxi, and Kunpeng immediately turned their heads to look over.

Qi Tian paused deliberately for a few moments, and only after he caught a glimpse of something disappearing silently did he tap his Adam's apple:

My throat suddenly feels a little uncomfortable!

"..."

Taiyi and the others immediately felt their forehead veins throbbing.

He snorted coldly and turned to rush towards the spot where the red cloud had self-destructed.

Seeing this, Qi Tian knew they were going to find the Primordial Purple Qi.

However, he did not follow.

It's not that just because I already have it, I no longer care about the Primordial Purple Qi.

Instead,

He just discovered a fiery red spirit orb at the site of the Red Cloud self-destruction.

That's why he deliberately coughed to attract their attention.

At that moment, the Spirit Pearl silently merged into the space and disappeared.

"Could it be that Hongyun isn't dead?"

Qi Tian muttered to himself.

At the same time, they were also extremely curious about the red spirit orb.

To be able to emerge unscathed from a Quasi-Saint's self-destruction, he must be extraordinary!

"It seems there's something else hidden about Hongyun!"

On the other side, outside Wuzhuang Temple,

"Brother Hongyun!"

Zhen Yuanzi, who was fighting a great battle with Di Jun, suddenly let out a mournful roar.

He sensed Hongyun's death.

The two had been friends for millions of years, but now their best friend had been killed by the Demon Court.

How could he not grieve? Not hate?

With cold, sinister eyes fixed on Di Jun, Zhen Yuanzi slowly raised his hands:

"Di Jun, your Demon Court forced Brother Hongyun to his death, so you shall all be buried with him! Unleash the earth's veins!"

After saying that,

The boundless power of the earth's veins surged and roared wildly at this moment.

Then it burst forth from the earth.

Countless forests turned yellow and withered instantly, and all the trees and flowers withered away.

At the same time, the earth continued to tremble, cracking open countless ravines.

All hope was extinguished at that moment.

The power of the earth's veins within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles formed a terrifying energy tide that surged toward Zhen Yuanzi.

"The earth's veins are gathering!"

Zhen Yuanzi's face hardened, and he used the Law of Heaven and Earth to directly devour the endless power of the earth veins.

"Pfft~"

The terrifying energy entered his body, and Zhen Yuanzi's face immediately turned red, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

But Zhen Yuanzi didn't care at all and continued to devour them.

At the same time, his momentum also rose rapidly.

Looking at Zhen Yuanzi's crazy posture.

Di Jun's expression changed drastically. He tried to stop it, but was blocked by the Earth Book and could not interrupt it at all.

"Damn it, Zhen Yuanzi, have you gone mad? Do you want to invite the karmic backlash from heaven and earth and be burdened with bad karma?"

Di Jun's face was extremely grim.

He hadn't expected Zhen Yuanzi to be so crazy, actually drawing out all the power of billions of miles of earth veins.

Although he was confident that he could withstand Zhen Yuanzi's next attack with the power of the earth veins using the Zhou Tian Star Array.

But he didn't want to resist.

Because of the clash of their attacks, the earth's ley line power will be exhausted.

When the earth's veins are completely destroyed and the boundless land becomes a dead zone, it will definitely attract a backlash from heaven and earth.

Moreover, they will be burdened with endless karma.

At that time, his Demon Court will be finished!

This is far more terrifying than a quasi-saint's self-destruction.

This,

It is also Zhen Yuanzi's undefeated reliance on the earth.

Even a sage would be wary of him.

Although a sage could kill Zhen Yuanzi, what if Zhen Yuanzi went completely mad and self-destructed the Earth Book before his death, destroying all the earth vein power in the primordial world?

It is estimated that Heaven will also destroy the sage.

Because Zhen Yuanzi's supreme innate spiritual treasure, the Earth Book, was transformed from the earth's membrane.

They were born with the ability to control the power of the primordial earth veins.

It is also an important treasure for understanding the earth's veins.

Similarly, if used for destruction, it would be extremely terrifying.

"Haha, crazy?"

Zhen Yuanzi appeared frantic, yet his eyes remained remarkably calm.

He knew what he was doing.

They wouldn't be so crazy as to destroy all the ley lines in the primordial world.

It only extracts the power of the earth's veins from a region; even if it is destroyed, the Heavenly Dao will not destroy it.

At most, it will cause a backlash from heaven and earth and bring karmic retribution upon oneself.

He doesn't care about any of that anymore!

"What does it matter if the heavens and earth turn against us, or we are burdened with karmic retribution, as long as we can destroy your demonic court?"

"you"

Di Jun's expression froze. Seeing that Zhen Yuanzi was still absorbing the power of the earth veins, the proud and arrogant Di Jun had no choice but to admit defeat.

He can't afford to take that risk!

"madman!!"

Di Jun roared in frustration and anger.

Then, the Zhou Tian Star Array emitted a blinding starlight, teleporting Di Jun and many demon gods and demon kings back to the endless starry sky.

After more than ten attempts, they returned to the Demon Court!

"Di Jun! You coward!"

Seeing that Di Jun had fled, Zhen Yuanzi roared in anger.

He was just a few breaths away from completely absorbing this immense power of the earth's veins.

Then give Dijun a lesson he will never forget.

Who knows,

The emperor of the Demon Court actually fled without a fight.

They've abandoned all sense of dignity and authority!

This made Zhen Yuanzi so frustrated that he almost vomited blood.

But no matter how frustrated or angry he was, he couldn't chase after them.

This power of the earth's veins is virtually invincible on the ground, but it is greatly diminished in the starry sky.

However, the Zhou Tian Star Array can unleash its maximum power in the starry sky.

If they really chase after him, he'll be the one who suffers.

Although he wanted to avenge Hongyun, he wasn't so irrational as to risk his life for it!

He sent the power of the earth's veins back to the primordial land, restoring life to this vast expanse. Enraged, Zhen Yuanzi rushed directly towards the site of the red cloud's self-destruction.

He had to go collect Hongyun's body; he couldn't let his friend's corpse lie exposed in the wilderness.

"Demon Court, this is not over between us!"

At this moment, at the site of Hongyun's self-destruction,

Taiyi, Minghe, and the other three searched the site of the self-destruction several times, leaving no place unchecked.

But there was no trace of the Primordial Purple Qi.

Not only was the Primordial Purple Qi absent, but Hongyun's supreme spiritual treasure, the Azure Lotus Banner, was also nowhere to be found.

"No! How could there be no one?"

The men's faces turned grim.

All that effort for nothing—wasn't that a waste of time?

Of course, among the four, only Taiyi, Fuxi, and Minghe were truly in a bad mood.

Kunpeng was even a little pleased.

He was willing to join the Demon Court for the sake of the Primordial Purple Qi. When Styx arrived before, Dijun and Taiyi completely disregarded his thoughts and directly agreed to help Styx seize the Primordial Purple Qi.

This made him very unhappy.

but,

He initially negotiated with the Demon Court that if he destroyed the Immortal Court and the Witch Clan, Di Jun and Tai Yi would help him seize the Primordial Purple Qi.

He could only say that the Celestial Court had been destroyed, but the Witch Clan still existed, so he couldn't use that as an excuse.

This made Kunpeng somewhat regretful!

We should have made more demands back then.

Moreover, Kunpeng is currently somewhat anxious.

The strength of the Witch Clan is comparable to that of the Demon Clan.

It's unclear how long it will take to wipe out the Witch Clan.

In particular, the Dao Ancestor also decreed that the two races must not go to war for 100,000 years.

He was very worried that during this period, all those who possessed the Primordial Purple Qi had become saints.

Then what's the point of him even robbing it?

Originally, he intended to seize Hongyun's Primordial Purple Qi, but now Dijun and Taiyi have agreed to Styx's request.

No wonder Kunpeng is happy.

But now, looking at Styx's face, which was as black as charcoal, he felt a little happy.

"If I can't have it, neither can you!"

Styx was unaware of Kunpeng's displeasure with him, and he had no interest in knowing.

All he knew was that the Primordial Purple Qi he was about to obtain was gone.

"Was it destroyed by Hongyun's self-destruction?"

Styx's face turned pale and then blue, looking extremely unpleasant.

Just one step away!

Just one step away again!

Previously, he was one step away from becoming a saint when he created the Asura race.

Now, if you try to steal the Primordial Purple Qi, you might kill someone, but you won't be able to find the Primordial Purple Qi.

Still one step short.

Could it be that Heaven truly does not want him to become a saint?

"My fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven!"

Styx's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he suddenly turned his head to look at Qi Tian in the distance.

The primordial purple aura of Hongyun has vanished.

but,

Here's one more.

"Um?"

Qi Tian, ​​whose eyes were darting around, seemingly plotting something, was suddenly taken aback by Minghe's gaze.

"What do you mean?"

However, when he saw the look in his eyes, he immediately understood.

Unable to find the Primordial Purple Qi, they turned their attention to him.

They wanted to steal it from him!

Qi Tian was immediately delighted.

He was just thinking of an excuse to snatch this treasure, but now he doesn't need to look anymore; it's been delivered right to his door.

He slung the golden cudgel over his shoulder and beckoned to the Styx River with one hand.

His face was full of provocation.

Styx was furious. Was this a disrespect to him?

However, he did not rush over immediately.

Because he wasn't absolutely certain he could defeat Qi Tian.

So he transmitted his voice to Taiyi and the other two:

"The Primordial Purple Qi of the Crimson Clouds is gone, so help me seize the Qitian!"

As soon as this word comes out,

Kunpeng, already displeased, turned completely gloomy.

Hongyun's Primordial Purple Qi is gone; now, the only one left to snatch is Qitian, who is alone.

What will he do if he gives it to the Styx River again?

Therefore, before Taiyi and Fuxi could speak, Kunpeng directly transmitted his disdainful voice:

"Minghe, you're too arrogant! We promised to help you deal with Hongyun, and now that we've killed him for you, you're not only breaking your promise and joining the Demon Court, but now you're pushing your luck. Do you really think we're your subordinates?"
