Primordial Era: The Great Serpent of Yunmeng

Chapter 78 The Madman Taiyi

Fuxi, Dijun, and Nuwa were somewhat amazed by the battle between the two, never expecting that they had made such great progress in such a short period of time.

It's important to understand that battles within the primordial world are conducted under the suppression of the Great Dao, unlike battles in the chaos where all power can be unleashed without restraint.

Their immense destructive power has begun to rival that of the old-guard innate deities like the Four Rivers Water Gods of the previous round.

The battle between Qi and Taiyi continues, and both of them are now somewhat excited.

Taiyi then displayed another of his innate spiritual treasures, the Emerald Light Yin-Yang Lamp.

Upon its first appearance, the lamplight caused Qi a lot of trouble. The Yin-Yang energy within the lamp constantly restricted Qi's movement, forcing him to withstand the damage from the Chaos Bell.

Qi revealed his belligerent nature, returning to his true form, and his terrifying purifying divine power seemed to be returning everything to its origin.

The defenses of the innate twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus were broken more than once, but unfortunately, they did not cause much damage to Qi. The Chaos Bell, which was not fully refined, could not unleash its full power.

Qi's mouth was bleeding, and his eyes on his forehead were open, constantly scanning his surroundings. Taiyi's sinister spells were impossible for him to defend against.

Taiyi was also in a difficult situation. Without going all out, he could not break through the defense of the 12th grade Pure World White Lotus. He was attacking with all his might and had no energy left to defend.

Qi seized the opportunity to strike him several times with the World-Slaying White Jade Token, and his protective aura crumbled upon contact.

Jian Qi stood atop the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus of the Primordial Era, the White Jade Scepter of World-Opening in his hand constantly swaying, the clear light continuously accumulating, and cracks spreading throughout the surrounding space.

Taiyi continuously gathered divine power and poured it into the Chaos Bell, forcing Qi to release it ahead of schedule.

Seeing that Taiyi had made a move, Qi stopped gathering his strength and hurled the accumulated pure light at Taiyi.

Taiyi summoned the Chaos Bell, not for defense, but to condense his divine power into a concentrated sound wave and attack Qi's position before flashing away.

Qi's eyes widened in shock, and he angrily rebuked:

"You're a madman!"

Without even looking at the clash of their supernatural powers, the innate twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus shone brightly and swiftly fled into the distance.

"not good!"

Di Jun and the other two reacted a little slowly, but fortunately the distance was far enough that they still had time to set up their spiritual treasures for defense.

Nuwa's Lotus Lantern and the Boundless Umbrella shone brightly, protecting the three of them.

Di Jun and Fu Xi also used the Hetu Luoshu and Fu Xi Qin in conjunction with Nuwa to enhance defense.

The two supernatural powers collided instantly, leaving no sound.

A few breaths later, a huge white light shone and spread outwards.

Qi Tong's innate twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus was directly blown away, and its whereabouts were unknown. It was not until several days later that it returned to the battlefield.

After waiting a few more days, Nuwa, Dijun, and Fuxi returned, while Taiyi waited for a full half month.

Everyone was in poor condition at this moment, and their demeanor was somewhat listless.

Qi is now even more injured, Taiyi is covered in wounds, and Fuxi, Dijun, and Nuwa are all in low spirits.

"Taiichi, unless I've lost my mind, I'll never spar with you again. You're a battle maniac!"

Qi's voice was filled with an inexplicable meaning, and Taiyi simply explained:

"The defense of the Twelfth Grade Pure World White Lotus is too strong. Without this, it would be impossible to determine the outcome in a short time. The Chaos Bell consumes too much divine power, and a prolonged battle would be too disadvantageous."

Qi was speechless. Later on, he did indeed have such thoughts, hoping to gain victory by weakening Taiyi.

But no one expected Taiyi to be so crazy. The clash of the two Luo Tianzun gods' supernatural powers after they had gathered their strength was something he really came up with!

Nuwa and the others never expected that they would suffer even more injuries than during the previous five-person debate and melee, when they were merely spectators.

"Let's go back and heal our injuries first. Curiosity really killed the cat. These inhuman battles shouldn't be something we watch."

Fuxi was in poor condition. Although he was speechless and had suffered an undeserved disaster, he was not surprised. On the contrary, he felt that this was the only way things should be.

When he went to the northern continent before, he was well protected even though there were hordes of ferocious beasts. Since he met them, the two injuries he suffered were both inflicted by his own people, which made him unsure whether to be angry or amused.

The group slowly flew out of the battle area, avoiding the unstable spatial turbulence, before tearing through space and returning to the primordial continent.

Taiyi knew he was in the wrong, so he remained quiet as if he didn't exist, simply adjusting his breathing and reflecting on what he had learned from this exchange.

Meanwhile, most of the Phoenix Clan members who could return to the south also arrived near the Undying Volcano and began to collect fire energy with all their might.

They cannot release too much at once, especially since Yuan Feng had previously released most of the fire energy from the core area.

The southern continent can no longer tolerate this heat, otherwise the temperature will continue to rise significantly.

They could only refine magical artifacts that could contain fire energy, such as gourds and jade bottles, to temporarily store the fire energy within them.

Yuan Huang was also constantly inspecting the entire Undying Volcano, and she fully realized the seriousness of the problem.

The entire core area has expanded by about one-third, and the entire immortal volcano has expanded considerably, with about 40,000 new volcanoes added.

Moreover, most volcanoes contain extremely dense fiery energy and are in a state where they could erupt at any time.

Some volcanoes, having already erupted, are now relatively quiet.

However, the accumulation of fire was also far faster than before, and the entire immortal volcano had become a powder keg about to explode. Just a spark would be enough to blow the southern continent into the sky.

After confirming the state of the Undying Volcano, Luo Hou quickly returned to Mount Sumeru. Although he wanted to collect the calamity energy, the Undying Volcano was of great importance and was one of the taboos that could not be touched.

Although he had no interest in helping, he also did not want to cut himself off from the primordial world right now.

In his view, the fact that he didn't cause trouble was already a great help.

With the Phoenix Clan's strength, they are capable of sustaining the Yuan Phoenix until it awakens; there's no need for these veteran innate deities to worry about it now.

As for how Yuan Feng will solve this problem after he wakes up, that's his business.

All Luo Hou needs to do is go and harvest the calamity energy after they are unable to suppress it, causing the Undying Volcano to erupt, and then hold the Phoenix Clan accountable for their dereliction of duty.

As for Yang Mei and the others, Luo Hou thought they would probably do the same, only this time to rescue people.

The three realms of humanity are separate, each with its own responsibilities. These innate, sacred beings are tasked with educating all living beings or changing the world.

But it was definitely not to interfere with the duties of the Earth God, so he felt that Fuxi was still very naive and had been easily bewitched by him.

Fortunately, those water gods still possessed some abilities; otherwise, under the karmic consequences of heaven and earth, he would likely have been burdened with karmic debts rather than receiving merit and rewards.

Even now, Luo Hou still feels a little scared when he thinks about it. Who could have imagined that a casual move would have such an effect?

Time flies, and a century passes in the blink of an eye. Under the phoenix tree, Yuan Feng gradually awakens from his slumber.

An immortal volcano!

Upon realizing this, Yuan Feng suddenly opened her eyes.

After a moment of stunned silence, Yuan Feng stood up, thinking to himself: I should visit the water gods of the various water systems and borrow some water.

Flooding an undying volcano forcibly extinguishes its flames!

P.S.: I'm writing and saving up drafts. I'm going to sleep now at 7:00 AM!

Congratulations to Bai Yu for being the first to follow the update for two consecutive days.

It will be officially released tomorrow at 12:00 noon, and I should update around 12:15. It will be at least 10,000 words.
