Primordial Era: The Great Serpent of Yunmeng

Chapter 42 The Power of the Chaos Bell

The five of them joined forces to tear through space and traveled for over a thousand years, arriving at the mouth of the river in the northern continent.

The scene of the ferocious beasts rushing in was long gone, replaced by desolation and ruin.

"Let's go and find out what's going on from the three clans. These are things we still need to pay attention to."

Taiyi and the others followed Qi to the outside of the Dragon Clan's camp. After announcing their arrival, they were invited into a tent.

The soldiers brought tea, drinks, and fruit, and asked them to wait quietly for a while, as they needed to inform their superiors, before leaving.

The group chatted casually for a few minutes about the might of the Dragon Clan army. The disciplined Dragon Clan legion amidst the surging tides was truly awe-inspiring.

Before long, Qinglong arrived with Chaofeng, Suanni, and Bian.

"Azure Dragon (Chaofeng, Suanni, Bian) greets fellow Daoists."

The five people raised their hands in return.

"The Dragon Clan is aware of the purpose of your visit. Our clan leader has investigated the matter of your sorrow and has also made some guesses about the changes in the innate divine fortune."

Qinglong revealed the question that Qi and the others were most concerned about at this moment: in recent years, many innate saints have come.

They have explained many times that each time, Qinglong would bring Chaofeng, Suanni, Bian, and several others, as this was a rare opportunity to get to know so many innate deities.

Even though the dragon race has four innate deities, they still don't know enough about this group.

Without exception, they were all people chosen by Heaven and Earth.

To know is already a treasure.

"I hope Fellow Daoist Qinglong can enlighten me."

"A thousand years ago, a primordial deity ascended to the Dao, causing blood rain to fall from the sky and the Great Dao to grieve."

"As far as the clan leader knows, this is the first innate deity to depart from the primordial world since its birth, and the reason for the changes in fortune must be due to this."

Qi paused for a moment, then replied:

"I understand now, thank you for your explanation, Fellow Daoist Qinglong."

Qinglong didn't say much, but after staying for a while, he bid farewell to the group:

"Fellow Daoists, I have important matters to attend to and cannot stay to entertain you for long. If you are interested, you may have the soldiers in the camp show you around. After I finish my business, I will hold a banquet and drink wine to apologize."

Everyone said they dared not, as official business was more important.

Having resolved their doubts, the five had no intention of staying in the dragon camp any longer, so they took their leave and headed further north.

Five flashes of light from the Jade Snake's Light Scissors pierced through the air, instantly slicing a ferocious beast into several pieces.

"The density of ferocious beasts is too high now. I encounter two or three almost every day, and there is also a small beast tide not far away."

Nuwa's voice held a hint of surprise, considering that their daily progress was even faster, and they had not ventured deep into the north.

Qi's expression was solemn. In the present day, the northern continent was almost visible to the naked eye, with corpses everywhere, spiritual energy thin, and almost no signs of life.

The further north you go, the more severe this phenomenon becomes; the world is nothing but a desolate expanse of white corpses.

This is truly a desolate place on earth.

As the group approached the beast tide, Taiyi suddenly said:

"Charge them?"

"it is good."

Pray was the first to respond.

Di Jun and Fu Xi remained silent, while Nuwa was excited but also had a hint of reminiscence in her expression.

Taiyi, holding the Chaos Bell, cleared the way, with Qiwei on the left. The White Jade Token of Bishi shimmered with clear light, while Dijun, on the right, continuously released the true fire of the sun.

Fuxi was calculating the optimal path to reduce the time wasted traversing the beast tide, striving to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Nuwa, just like last time, went to kill the fish that had escaped the net. The Five Elements Spirit Pearls flew around the battlefield, and ordinary ferocious beasts would have their heads explode when they touched them.

Or perhaps it was the Five Jade Beasts that cut the hair with their radiant light, leaving behind corpses everywhere.

Qi was utterly shocked to see Nuwa so ferocious. Even though they fought against the ferocious beast together last time, Nuwa had never shown such cruelty.

Fuxi noticed Qi's gaze and felt that his image as his sister had been completely shattered.

There are other magical treasures that would prevent such brutality in battle, but I don't understand why my sister is so fond of these two.

However, Nuwa is no longer needed to provide protection this time. Firstly, the ferocious beasts have become much stronger, and secondly, their scale is different from before.

Using Nuwa's magic weapon to withstand the damage might lead to oversights, not to mention that if the damage is severe and affects the magic weapon's spiritual power, that would be extremely undesirable.

Although the innate twelve-grade pure white lotus was at Qi's feet, the spiritual light it cast protected the five people.

The drums of the Water Blossom Awakening resounded, and countless divine thunderbolts from the Purple Heaven spread across the battlefield.

Those who are not at the level of a Golden Immortal will be injured upon contact with it, and will die upon touching it.

However, Qi and the others' crossing also disturbed the ferocious beasts of the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm in the beast tide.

Seven ferocious beasts at the Taiyi Realm arrived immediately, but before they could even roar, one of them was destroyed and reduced to ashes in the path cleared by the Chaos Bell.

The remaining six ferocious beasts stopped immediately and were about to turn and run away, but before they could, the clear light of the World-Slaying Jade Scepter had already fallen.

A bull-headed beast watched helplessly as its body gradually disappeared without a trace.

What followed was a barrage of attacks from the Five Elemental Pearls, which left the five ferocious beasts dazed and confused, hindering their escape.

Seeing that they were still among the beasts, Qi immediately shouted:

"Chase after them! Don't let them get away!"

"it is good."

Taiichi was also very excited. Sure enough, only during battle could he truly get excited.

For him, the thrill of battle was second only to enlightenment.

The Chaos Bell turned around, aimed at the five ferocious beasts, and gently struck it.

In an instant, the sound waves swept across the entire world, illuminating everything.

The massive sound waves spanned tens of thousands of miles, almost piercing through the entire beast tide.

With this attack, the five Taiyi ferocious beasts were killed without a complete corpse.

The other ferocious beasts also stopped gathering and began to scatter and flee in all directions, fearing that if they were even a little slow, they would be wiped out.

Qi and the others also stopped moving and looked at Taiyi in unison, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Qi was even more surprised. With the World-Slaying Jade Token, considering the attack range and effect, he could only achieve one-tenth of the effect at most.

"This is the power of the Chaos Bell, and you have all been affected by it. It's just that your defensive measures are quite good, so you can't produce such an effect."

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Taiyi explained.

"Especially Qi, the time you were injured during the Dao debate was an extraordinary performance, with power more than three times that of this time."

"It's just that you have the protection of the innate twelfth-grade Pure White Lotus, so the effect isn't apparent."

Qi didn't know how to answer, and after a long while, she finally said:

"Taiichi, did you intend to kill me before?"

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.

Qi realized that without a direct comparison, he had no idea that he could withstand such a powerful attack.

He even wondered if the defense of the innate twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus had been weakened.

Who would have thought that if it weren't for the innate twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus, he would have long since vanished into nothingness amidst the tolling of the bell, just like those ferocious beasts.

P.S.: Please vote and read on! I hope everyone will support me. Also, I have to complain about how bad the second round was.
