Primordial Era: I, Huanglong, have refined all the heavens, and will not join the Chan Sect.

Chapter 100 Slaying Kurosawa, the First Tremor Shakes the Primordial World

In the center of the venue, on the arena created by spatial folding, Kurosawa revealed an arrogant expression.

"Young Huanglong, sometimes acting impulsively solves nothing. Today, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your dragon clan elders!"

As he spoke, an aura unique to Great Luo Golden Immortals erupted from his body, causing the void to tremble slightly.

"Unfortunately, you won't have the chance to learn from this, because..."

Before he finished speaking, Kurosawa vanished from his spot and unleashed his fastest divine power to launch a sneak attack on Huanglong.

Although he was full of confidence in this battle, as a Great Luo Golden Immortal who existed in ancient times and had experienced many battles, how could he not know the principle that even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit?

Since it's already a fight to the death, then of course we should use every means to try to kill them in one blow. Verbal interference and sneak attacks are also forms of attack.

Moreover, in his past battles, both of these methods have often been incredibly effective.

However, in the face of absolute power, all schemes seem so pale and powerless. Even among those who are both at the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, there is a huge gap between them.

Despite Kurosawa's verbal taunts and sneak attacks, Huanglong's expression remained unchanged.

He calmly took out a scroll and slowly unfurled it.

next moment.

A full moon appeared out of nowhere in the sky above this space, and wisps of primordial yin energy immediately filled the surroundings, giving people a dreamlike feeling.

"A top-grade innate spiritual treasure?!"

The powerful figures present immediately recognized the grade of the Taiyin Cold Moon Diagram and were surprised, their wariness of the Dragon Clan growing even stronger.

It seems that the dragon race's foundation is even stronger than we imagined!

Even a young dragon who has only recently become a Great Luo Golden Immortal possesses a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, demonstrating just how profound the dragon race's resources are.

At the same time, a hint of greed arose in the hearts of some Great Luo Golden Immortals.

If we could loot the Dragon Palace, the rewards would be...

But they quickly regained their senses. Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Moreover, how could the dragon race, with its many innate spiritual treasures, be plundered so easily?

If I really did that, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get out once I went in, and I might even collapse before I even entered the Dragon Palace.

However, since they couldn't go to the Dragon Palace, some lone dragons...

They glanced at Huang Long on the stage and smiled faintly.

After Huanglong took out the Taiyin Cold Moon Diagram, they knew that the outcome of this battle was uncertain, even though Huanglong's cultivation was only at the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, a small realm lower than Heize's.

However, even if one possesses a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, even if it is only a top-grade innate spiritual treasure with thirty-seven divine restrictions, one can still barely have the ability to fight beyond one's level.

Moreover, they all realized that in addition to containing the Great Dao of Taiyin, the Taiyin Cold Moon Diagram also contained the Law of Illusion and Reality, which could trap opponents in an illusion.

Kurosawa himself wasn't some powerful Grand Luo Golden Immortal, so the final outcome of the battle wasn't good.

"Luckily I was prepared, otherwise I would have been utterly humiliated!"

On the high platform.

When Dongwanggong saw Huanglong unleash the Taiyin Cold Moon Diagram, he was only slightly surprised, but not panicked. On the contrary, a faint smile appeared on his face, as if he had everything under control.

Although he was unaware that Huanglong possessed the Taiyin Cold Moon Diagram.

However, just to be on the safe side, before the Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering began, he handed over a top-grade innate spiritual treasure to Heize, just to deal with this situation.

After plundering the primordial world for so many years, the Celestial Court still has a few innate top-grade spiritual treasures in its inventory.

Even though that innate top-grade spiritual treasure was only temporarily lent to Heize, and he hadn't yet refined several divine restrictions, so he couldn't unleash its full power, it was still more than enough to deal with Huanglong, who was at the early stage of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

However, the subsequent changes on the arena caused the smile on Dong Wanggong's face to vanish completely.

After Huanglong unleashed the Taiyin Cold Moon Diagram, his skin was covered with hard, golden dragon scales, transforming him into a human-dragon battle form.

Immediately afterward, taking advantage of the brief moment when Heize was trapped in the illusion, Huanglong took a step forward and arrived in front of Heize.

He raised his right hand high above his head, his five fingers loosely clenched, and a phantom giant axe appeared in his hand, slowly slashing down towards the black swamp in front of him.

At first, the powerful figures present were quite puzzled as to why Huanglong would show such a solemn expression when this seemingly powerless move was used.

Click—!

But soon, a faint cracking sound came from the space where the arena was located.

"This is……"

"A spatial rift?!"

Everyone looked somewhat surprised, as tiny cracks appeared in the space beneath the giant yellow dragon axe.

At this moment, Huanglong's body seemed to transform into a giant wielding a giant axe, which he was about to cleave the world in two!

"The Great God Pangu!"

Even the most ignorant person recognized the giant's identity at this moment and felt a deep sense of respect.

They all realized that Huanglong had received the legacy of Pangu and was the true successor of Pangu.

Even though Huanglong is still young and his cultivation level is not very high, in terms of seniority, he is a head higher than many of the powerful figures present.

At the same time, the Pangu Banner within Yuqing Daoist's primordial spirit trembled slightly, as if trying to spare a wisp of power to strengthen Huanglong's palm.

However, Huanglong is a dragon, a scaly race. Yuqing Daoren dislikes creatures with fur and horns, born from eggs and moisture. Even though Huanglong received the legacy of Pangu, Yuqing Daoren was still unwilling to lend out part of the power of the Pangu Banner.

As his thoughts raced, the Pangu Banner quickly calmed down.

On the other side, the Taiji diagram of the Taoist Taiqing also trembled slightly.

Taiqing Daoist followed the Way of Non-Action, and he also saw that the power of Huanglong's move was enough to end the battle. No matter what choice he made, he would not be tainted by karma. Therefore, he did not stop the Taiji Diagram's intention.

next moment.

A mysterious and ethereal Daoist aura emanated from the Taiji diagram and landed on the giant axe in Huanglong's hand, making the axe appear more real and its power even stronger.

Unfortunately, Huanglong's cultivation level was still too low to ignore spatial distance; otherwise, he might have been able to borrow some of the Chaos Bell's power.

Huang Long nodded his thanks to Taiqing Daoist, then gripped the axe handle with his other hand, a murderous intent flashing across his calm face, and slashed down fiercely.

Kurosawa had just broken free from the illusion when he saw the giant axe in front of him. His face immediately showed fear, and his first instinct was to flee the place.

But as soon as he had this thought, he realized that he couldn't move an inch under the lock of Huanglong's axe.

Even retrieving the top-grade innate spiritual treasure from his primordial spirit would be difficult at this moment, let alone escaping this place and dodging Huanglong's axe. That would be wishful thinking.

"stop!"

Just as Kurosawa was in despair, the Eastern King's rebuke suddenly came from the high platform.

At this moment, the smile on his face disappeared, and the look of complete control was gone.

He knew he had greatly underestimated Huanglong. When Huanglong was about to unleash his Heaven-Opening Axe, he discovered that Huanglong's cultivation was not at the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, but at the middle stage.

Moreover, he was a mid-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal who possessed a top-grade innate spiritual treasure and extremely powerful offensive techniques. This was simply beyond the capabilities of Heize.

If Huanglong were to strike with his axe, Heize would be certain to die, with absolutely no chance of survival.

Dongwanggong didn't particularly care about Heize's life or death; he never expected that a fickle person like the Blackwater Serpent would remain loyal to him forever.

However, if the Blackwater Serpent were to die at the hands of the Yellow Dragon in this place, then the Eastern King Duke would lose all face.

The effectiveness of this Fruit Fair will be reduced by at least 40% as a result.

Given such a serious outcome, how could the Eastern King Duke possibly allow such a thing to happen? He immediately stood up from his seat, intending to stop the duel.

"Huang Long, stop immediately! Peace is the best policy. Let's stop here. There should be no bloodshed at the Bai Baiguo Immortal Gathering..."

However, before he could finish speaking, he heard the Queen Mother of the West chuckle beside him.

"Fellow Daoist Huanglong, this duel is a feud between the Dragon Clan and the Blackwater Serpent Clan. It would be inappropriate for outsiders like us to interfere, wouldn't it?"

"Moreover, Fellow Daoist Huanglong so vehemently invited us to witness this duel; how can we just stop it like that?"

As they spoke, a jade pendant floated out from the Queen Mother of the West's primordial spirit and pressed down on the King Duke of the East, causing him to move slightly.

In that brief moment of delay, Huanglong's giant axe had already struck Heize.

The Scaled Armor Clan is known for its strong physique and amazing defense, and Black Swamp is no exception. With his physical strength, he can withstand the supernatural powers of some early-stage Great Luo Golden Immortals without any problem.

However, faced with Huanglong's axe, his powerful body couldn't even offer the slightest resistance.

As Huanglong swung his axe, the black scales on Heize's brow shattered instantly.

Immediately afterwards, a crack appeared on all the scales, flesh, bones, and even his primordial spirit.

When Huanglong's axe cleaved down completely, Heize's body and primordial spirit, like broken building blocks, turned into tiny fragments, disappearing into the air with an expression of disbelief and resentment.

"This matter won't just end like this..."

A wisp of true spirit flew out from the shattered primordial spirit of the Black Swamp and vanished instantly in the Celestial Court.

The Great Luo Golden Immortals have already transcended the river of fate. As long as they leave their mark in the primordial world, even if they die, they can be resurrected over time.

Even if all of the opponent's marks are erased and their true spirit is shattered, as long as the opponent has some kind of backup plan, there is still hope of them being resurrected.

Normally, after a powerful being in the primordial world kills the enemy of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, they will either suppress the enemy's true spirit to prevent the enemy from being resurrected.

If there are no means to suppress the true spirit, then when the true spirit escapes, it leaves behind a mark. This mark can be used to deduce when the spirit will be resurrected, where and how it will be resurrected, and then…

Take advantage of the opponent's weakened state after resurrection to kill them again, and repeat this process until the opponent can no longer resurrect.

Since they were currently in the Celestial Court, with many powerful beings watching, Huanglong naturally could not take out top-grade Celestial Court treasures such as the Millstone of Life and Death to suppress the true spirit of the Black Swamp.

Therefore, he could only use the second method: to leave the mark of the Heaven-Opening Axe on the opponent's true spirit, and then try to deduce the opponent's resurrection time and location.

As for whether these two key points can be deduced, Huang Long was not too worried.

Although he was not skilled in divination, with the Three Lives Stone as an aid, it was not difficult for him to deduce the time and place of Kurosawa's resurrection.

Then, Huanglong waved his sleeves, taking all the items left behind by Heize into them, and left the space, returning to the venue of the Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering.

I've already killed Kurosawa, so aren't all these things he left behind mine? Am I supposed to hand them over?

"Thank you all, seniors."

Huang Long bowed to the powerful figures around him, then returned to his seat, picked up the Huang Zhong Li on the table, and swallowed it in one gulp, completely ignoring the gloomy expression on Dong Wang Gong's face.

What does it matter to me if the Eastern King Duke is in a bad mood? I was invited here by the Western Queen Mother, so it's not too much for me to taste a few spiritual fruits, is it?

The flesh melts in your mouth, and the juice is sweet and delicious. In terms of taste, Huangzhong Plum is in no way inferior to Xiantian Renshui Flat Peach.

Immediately afterwards, a surge of energy and a profound aura of the Great Dao erupted from his body.

As Huang Long's thoughts turned, he sealed away this energy and the aura of the Great Dao, intending to refine it after returning to Yunmeng Immortal Island.

After sensing this energy and the aura of the Great Dao, Huanglong was basically certain that after refining it, he would be able to open the door to the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, condense the last Dao Flower, and step into the late-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

The scene will be quite spectacular, and he doesn't want to break through here.

The powerful figures around him, seeing Huang Long's blissful expression, finally snapped out of their shock.

Even though they had guessed this outcome after seeing Huanglong unleash the Heaven-Opening Axe, they were still quite shocked to witness Heize being instantly killed.

"It's best not to provoke this Fellow Daoist Huanglong in the future..."

They gave Huanglong a deep look, and even some powerful beings in the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm had the same thought in their minds.

All of this happened too fast. From Heize jumping out and picking a fight in public, to Huanglong showing weakness and challenging him to a duel, and then to Heize being completely destroyed, with only a wisp of his true spirit escaping, the whole thing took only about fifteen minutes.

As for the speed at which Huanglong killed Heize, that was even more terrifying. If one were to be even slightly distracted, they might not even have had time to see how Heize died...

More importantly, Huanglong possessed such formidable strength, yet at the beginning, he displayed the demeanor of a rebellious dragon youth, merely revealing his cultivation level as a Grand Luo Golden Immortal in the early stages.

He lured Kurosawa into a trap, then without saying a word, unleashed a fatal blow, leaving Kurosawa no room for regret and killing him on the spot.

On the high platform, Dong Wanggong's face was ashen. Huanglong had just forcefully killed Heize in front of everyone, which was equivalent to slapping him hard in the face.

However, as the ruler of the Celestial Court, the deed was already done, and he could only swallow his anger for the time being and settle this matter with Huanglong in the future.

The Hundred Fruit Fairy Gathering continued, but everyone seemed somewhat distracted, and it eventually came to an abrupt end after a few days.

Some Great Luo Golden Immortals sought out the Eastern King Duke, expressing their desire to join the Celestial Court, but their numbers were far fewer than he had anticipated.

Some of the Great Immortals sought out the Queen Mother of the West to express their desire to trade the Primordial Water Peaches of Immortality; the specifics of which remain unknown to outsiders.

The remaining Great Luo Golden Immortals scattered in different directions, and Huanglong was one of them.

Now that he has killed Heize and deeply offended Dongwanggong, wouldn't it be suicide to stay in the Celestial Court?
