Primordial Era: The Great Serpent of Yunmeng

Chapter 86 The Great Millstone of Annihilation, Rahu Injured

Upon hearing this, Zu Long remained silent. Yes, people always make choices with an answer in mind, and he never expected that he would also fall into the same old trap.

"Feel sorry."

Zulong turned and left the sea eye, no longer waiting for Qinglong's response, and silently departed.

The Azure Dragon remained silent within the sea eye, simply watching the departing figure of the Ancestral Dragon.

The loss of the dragon clan members was already expected. Informing the prehistoric world was simply a matter of proceeding according to the original plan, and they did not need to rely on such means to achieve their goal.

That shouldn't be the style of the dragon race, much less the behavior of the Ancestral Dragon. Just as he asked in his previous question, how can someone who doesn't care about the primordial world inspire confidence in his rule?

Mount Sumeru.

Rahu sat under the Bodhi tree, his divine light resonating with the tree. Suddenly, the Great Millstone of Annihilation turned, attracting his attention.

"Another calamity is imminent. Why is the primordial world so fraught with disasters? Is the impact of the Great Dao's impending departure truly so profound?"

Rahu extracted a strand of human destiny from heaven and earth and threw it into the Great Millstone of Annihilation.

A moment later, the Great Millstone became much wetter, with water droplets clinging to its surface.

Luo Hou wiped away the water droplets with his hand on the millstone, looking somewhat puzzled.

"The crisis is clearly the one facing the immortal volcano, so how can it be related to water vapor? Given what happened in Yunmeng Marsh, those water gods shouldn't be causing any more trouble."

"Could it have come from chaos? Did the primordial membrane of heaven and earth absorb too much chaotic energy and transform it into water vapor? That doesn't make sense."

"Moreover, the entire millstone was wet, so the calamity must have affected the entire prehistoric world, but why did I not find anything in the West?"

Rahu then gathered a wisp of the earthly energy representing the earth's essence from the heavens and earth and threw it into the Great Millstone of Annihilation. The result was no different from before.

"It's the same as before; it seems this calamity has even affected the land."

This made Luo Hou even more puzzled. What kind of calamity could affect both humans and the earth, yet he hadn't discovered it?

"It seems the problem lies with the Heavenly Dao, otherwise I wouldn't have been completely without any information."

Currently, only the Phoenix Clan can represent the destiny of Heaven, but unfortunately, the destiny of the Phoenix Clan is not easily collected.

After a moment's hesitation, Rahu turned his gaze to the southern continent, gathered his divine power in his hand, and gently plucked something from the air.

The phantom of the colorful phoenix in the Undying Volcano instantly became extremely angry, pecking fiercely at the outstretched hand, but before it could be captured, the phantom of the hand escaped.

The change in fortune instantly alerted Yuan Huang. She was in the Undying Volcano and rushed over, discovering the fleeing phantom.

Unable to catch up, it could only exhale yin and yang energies from its mouth and swat them fiercely at the phantom. Although it hit, the phantom still managed to escape.

After a long while, Rahu's face turned pale, and a phantom of a phoenix feather appeared in his hand.

Rahu placed his hand in front of him and discovered that his entire palm was covered in blood, with divine blood dripping onto the ground.

A moment later, his entire hand seemed to lose its color, turning ashen gray, and the phoenix feather in his hand fell to the ground.

Luo Hou tried to clench his fist, but found that his entire hand seemed to have lost all feeling, disappearing from his senses.

Even the divine blood flowing on his palms had lost its color and was devoid of any vitality.

Despite the change in his hand, Luo Hou was not angry. He simply picked up the phoenix feather with his other hand and threw it into the Great Millstone of Annihilation.

In his view, he was the one who made the first move, so it was only natural that he was injured. He just didn't expect that it would be Yuan Huang who made the move.

Seeing that the injury on his hand had not subsided, Luo Hou could only use his divine power to suppress it, stopping the flow of divine blood, and said:

"These Yin and Yang energies are truly troublesome. It seems we have all underestimated Yuan Huang's power. Her current cultivation level is probably already above Yuan Feng's."

"However, this is to be expected, since Yuan Feng also needs to manage the affairs of the Phoenix Clan, and has much less time for cultivation than Yuan Huang."

The millstone of destruction kept turning, but Rahu paid no attention. The Phoenix Clan's fortune was solid, and as long as there was a result within ten thousand years, there was no need to rush.

What he needs most right now is to go into seclusion for a period of time to heal the damage caused by Yuan Huang. Fortunately, Yuan Huang's cultivation level is still too low for him, otherwise the injuries would be difficult to treat.

As Rahu's figure disappeared, only the sound of the world-destroying millstone turning continuously remained on Mount Sumeru.

Suddenly, as if a gust of wind had come, the Bodhi tree trembled, and then returned to silence.

Yunmeng Marsh.

Qi and Taiyi played chess in the pavilion in the center of the pond, and the Taoist spirit flowed between their moves.

Now, the only two people in the entire dojo are idle, so they can only play chess to pass the time.

Qi remained calm and composed, while Taiyi frowned deeply. Playing chess was already mentally taxing, and since he was not good at it, he was being relentlessly pressured by Qi.

Whenever he was in dire straits, Taiyi could only break the deadlock by gathering more Daoist energy, but this was not a long-term solution, as Qi Daoxing was not much worse than him.

This resulted in a situation where one person was calm and collected, while the other had a furrowed brow.

"Taiyi, if you rely solely on brute force to break through the stalemate, you probably won't be able to hold out for long after the battle drags on."

Seeing Taiyi in such a state, Qi couldn't help but make a joke.

Upon hearing this, Taiyi did not hesitate, scattered a handful of chess pieces, and resigned defeat.

"Qi, do not be arrogant. This is nothing but a minor skill. If we were to truly fight and compare our abilities, I would surely defeat you."

Taiichi changed the subject, not wanting to talk about the game any further.

"Someone got angry out of spite. I won't say who it is; you can guess for yourself."

Qi's smile deepened. Even though it was a minor skill, the chance to beat Taiyi was rare. If he didn't seize the opportunity this time, it might be difficult in the future.

Taiyi rolled his eyes at Qi, and was about to speak when he suddenly looked in another direction, where the gate of Qi's dojo was located.

Qi also sensed something and looked towards the mountain gate. A stream of light flew from afar, stopped at the mountain gate, and transformed into a jade bead that floated in the air.

Bai Ling stretched out her hands, took it in her hands, and flew towards the Pond Pavilion.

Qi and Taiyi stopped joking and wanted to see who was sending the message.

Bai Ling placed the jade bead on the stone platform and slowly retreated, returning to the mountain gate without lingering in the lotus pond.

He still had a few immortal herbs waiting for him to taste, and he didn't want to add unnecessary work to his schedule by staying at the lotus pond.

Having served for so long, he has accumulated a lot of experience and has come to understand many things. Most of the time, as long as he doesn't appear in front of Qi and the others, he won't have much work to do.

As long as he stays at the mountain gate, his master may not call him once for thousands of years, allowing him to slack off without worry.

P.S.: There will be another chapter tonight.
