Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Kunpeng appeared silently behind Hongyun, dressed in dark green feathers, with a gaunt face, and surrounded by the dark Northern Dark Water, which caused all things to wither wherever it passed.

The piercing Northern Dark Water and the blazing Solar True Fire formed a dual world of water and fire, with a Chaos Bell that solidified space above, tightly surrounding the red clouds!

All three stared intently at Hongyun, their eyes filled with longing for the Saint Realm. The scene of Yuanshi Tianzun suppressing them all with just a wisp of his aura was still vivid in their minds.

The saying "below the sage, all are ants" is not just a figure of speech.

For Hongyun, this was a dead end! Three of the top quasi-saints of the primordial world, one of whom possessed a supreme innate treasure, had been secretly watching Hongyun for countless years for the chance to become a saint, and finally, their opportunity had arrived!

Even if they surrender the Primordial Purple Qi, they will still not escape this calamity!

Hongyun was doomed from the moment he left Wuzhuang Temple.

The innate treasure, the Chaos Bell, along with the Hetu and Luoshu, treasures for deduction, obscured the secrets of heaven, making it difficult even for sages to perceive, let alone Zhen Yuanzi.

Choosing to strike in this place, far from Wanshou Mountain and close to his lair, is to ensure he dies without a burial place!

Hongyun was, after all, a quasi-saint. It was absolutely impossible for him to just sit and wait to die. Even if he died, he would never let Dijun and the others easily obtain the Primordial Purple Qi.

"Whoever wants the Primordial Purple Qi, let's see if they have the ability!" Hongyun let out a sharp cry, his fighting spirit rekindled in his eyes.

He suddenly slapped his waist, and a dark red light shot into the sky!

"Buzz—!"

The red light blazed brightly, and it instantly transformed into a giant gourd the size of a small mountain, its entire body a dark red, fiery red!

The gourd's surface was covered with dark red patterns, exuding a fierce aura. From within the pitch-black mouth, a wave of energy that could confuse the mind rippled outwards.

It was Hongyun's natal spiritual treasure, the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd!

Hongyun formed hand seals, his beard and hair bristling, and poured all his magical power into the gourd with reckless abandon.

"Scattered Soul Red Sand! Go—!"

"boom!!!"

Like a dormant volcano that could no longer be suppressed, Hulukou erupted with a torrent of dark red sand and gravel!

A grain of sand, reddish-black in color, fine as dust, yet heavy as a mountain, carrying a strange power that corrodes bones and scatters souls!

Billions of dark red sand blotted out the sky, colliding and emitting a terrifying, ghostly scream that instantly filled the space frozen by the Chaos Bell!

It flew straight toward Di Jun and Kunpeng.

"Useless struggle!" Di Jun sneered, flames flickering in his eyes.

His body erupted with light as bright as the sun. "Screech—!"

A cry that ripped through the heavens and earth!

As the light faded, a colossal golden crow, its body ablaze with intense solar fire, suddenly appeared.

The golden crow spreads its wings, scorching the sky and boiling the sea!

Endless streams of golden fire, carrying terrifyingly high temperatures that scorch everything, collided violently with the sky full of scattered red veils!

"Zzzzzzz—!!!"

There was no explosion, only the piercing sound of corrosion and evaporation! The red sand melted rapidly in the real fire;

The true fire of the sun was also extinguished by most of the scattered red sand.

Just as Hongyun was using all his strength to activate the Soul-Scattering Gourd to fight against the True Fire of the Sun, a sinister killing intent erupted from behind him!

"die!"

The Kunpeng roared like a night owl.

His figure transformed into an almost invisible streak of dark blue light, moving so fast that Hongyun didn't even have time to react!

A divine power forged from the Northern Dark Ice and the fierce wind transformed into the tip of a spear, with a point of dark green cold light at the tip, which pierced straight into the heart of the red cloud!

The Northern Darkness's malevolent energy, which had frozen the primordial spirit, instantly froze half of Hongyun's body and rapidly spread throughout his entire being.

Hongyun's body paused briefly!

In that brief moment of hesitation, the Chaos Bell above their heads suddenly trembled!

"when--!"

The connection between Hongyun and the Three Souls Gourd was severed, causing Hongyun to lose control of the spiritual treasure.

"puff--!"

Hongyun felt as if he had been crushed by Mount Buzhou, blood spurted from his seven orifices, and his face instantly twisted and deformed!

"You want the Primordial Purple Qi? Dream on!"

Hongyun's voice suddenly turned mad as he ignited his body, primordial spirit, and the Great Dao he controlled, unleashing a destructive energy that made even top-tier experts like Dijun and Kunpeng pale in comparison!

"Oh no! He's about to self-destruct his Dao Source! Retreat!"

Taiyi's angry roar rang out, reminding Dijun and Kunpeng. The Chaos Bell instantly unleashed its full power, attempting to suppress Hongyun's self-destruction.

boom!!!

An indescribable burst of destructive light exploded!

"Madman!" Kunpeng screamed, trying to get away.

Di Jun also activated the Luoshu Hetu with all his might, and its radiance cascaded down like a waterfall to protect himself.

But it was too late!

"Boom—!!!"

The destructive shockwave from the explosion destroyed everything in its vicinity.

That was a powerful being who had cultivated for countless lifetimes and reached the level of a Quasi-Saint. He ignited his own magic power, physical body, primordial spirit, and even the laws of the Great Dao, and the explosion caused by all of these at the same time was no exaggeration to call it earth-shattering!

Space was torn apart layer by layer like thin paper, forming countless black cracks that devoured everything.

The terrifying shockwave, like a raging chaotic tide, swept wildly in all directions!

The first to be affected were Di Jun and Kun Peng. Neither of them had any innate treasures to protect them, and their cultivation was still a step behind Tai Yi. Their own spiritual treasures could only offset a small portion of the power, and their protective divine light shattered in an instant. Their true bodies were shattered in this violent energy, like two broken porcelain pieces.

His figure was thrown out like a kite with a broken string, his aura weakened!

When a quasi-saint ignites everything within himself, the power is truly terrifying!

Space shattered like a mirror, creating a black hole tens of millions of feet in size!

The raging spatial power completely spiraled out of control, tearing and devouring everything in its path!

Right at the heart of this destructive storm, a purple gas appeared, emitting a subtle yet clear "crack" sound!

Under the incredulous gazes of Di Jun, Kunpeng, and Taiyi, three Quasi-Saints!

The foundation of that Great Dao, the key to the realm of sages, should be the indestructible Primordial Purple Qi, which has broken like shattered glass!

It broke into three sections of purple aura of varying lengths!

"No--!"

Di Jun let out a wild roar.

"How could it break?!"

Kunpeng's face was contorted with shock and rage.

The three sections of purple energy, along with the cracked Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd, were swallowed by the enormous black hole and vanished instantly from the dark rift churning with chaotic energy, leaving no trace!

Too fast! From the moment Hongyun self-destructed to the moment the Primordial Purple Qi broke and disappeared, it was only a blink of an eye!

The expressions on Di Jun, Tai Yi, and Kun Peng's faces instantly transformed into astonishment, rage, and a hint of inexplicable regret.

They stared intently at the closing spatial rift, unable to believe their eyes. A cooked duck…split into three pieces? And it flew away?

"Chase!"

Taiyi was the first to regain his senses, golden flames erupting from his eyes as he roared. At the same time, he activated the Chaos Bell, attempting to stabilize the chaotic space.

However, at that very moment!

"Red Clouds—!!!"

A piercing cry that seemed to tear the sky apart, filled with endless sorrow, roared like divine thunder, spreading from afar and instantly throughout this shattered world that had just been destroyed!

An extremely angry roar, tinged with a hint of sorrow, came from the west. Its sound was like a thunderclap, startling the weakened Kunpeng!

A streak of light pierced through the numerous spatial rifts and rushed towards them!
