I, the primordial ancestor, started out as a useless cult and a useless saint.

Chapter 218 Yuan Shi: My leg cramped up, otherwise I would definitely have stepped out

In an instant, a terrifying wave swept over, and all the saints of the heavens watched as the Primordial Heavenly Venerable clashed with the Heavenly Emperor.

However, one foot was only halfway out when it hovered in the air and did not fall.

This made the saints somewhat embarrassed. Could it be that the Primordial Celestial Venerable was really frightened?

"Hmph, if it weren't for my leg cramping at the crucial moment, I would have definitely stepped out, damn it."

After speaking, Yuanshi Tianzun returned directly to Yuxu Palace and shut himself away, which shocked all the saints in the heavens. It turned out that all he did was make a lot of noise but no rain.

This completely stunned all the saints and sages in the heavens. What kind of operation is this? What does it mean?

"Hehe, it seems that the Primordial Celestial Lord is truly afraid."

"How can we not be afraid? The human race is full of madmen, the human ancestor was a madman, and this Martial Ancestor is the ultimate madman among madmen, and he is also a madman whose magical power has reached sainthood."

All the saints in the heavens were indeed afraid, and the Primordial Heavenly Venerable was even more afraid. Since the Martial Ancestor Heavenly Emperor said he would kill him a hundred times, he would definitely keep his word. The Primordial Heavenly Venerable dared not do it. Let alone a hundred times, even if he was killed ten times, the Chan Sect would likely be destroyed on the spot.

If someone else said that, it would probably just be a joke, but if Emperor Wuzu said it, it's different; he's serious.

Hongjun of Zixiao Palace was helpless when he saw this scene. He understood that the human race had grown up and was no longer afraid of the heavens.

Through the cycle of reincarnation, Ye Yang transformed into a beam of light and rushed directly into the underworld. However, the moment he stepped into the Yama King's palace, a terrifying aura emanated from him.

"Um?"

Ye Yang was taken aback and quickly prepared himself, only to hear Hou Tu's voice.

"it's me."

Looking into the deepest part of the Yama King's Palace, Ye Yang was somewhat surprised to see that the Ancestral Witch Houtu's entire body seemed to be enveloped by a series of auras.

"You've gotten stronger again?"

Ye Yang could clearly sense that Hou Tu's bloodline aura was much stronger than before, at least several times stronger.

"Yes, some opportunities."

As they spoke, a cup of calming tea was placed before them. After they sat down, Houtu said:

"Ancestor of Humanity, I remember you once said that there is an even wider world beyond the primordial wilderness. Is that true?"

Ye Yang was taken aback and suddenly looked at Houtu:

Why are you asking this question? Did something happen?

Houtu did not speak, but waved her hand, and a drop of blood appeared on her hand. In an instant, a terrifying power spread out.

Splash!

The terrifying energy surged in all directions, causing even the entire underworld to tremble.

"This is not good."

bang

Ye Yang's half-body exploded on the spot, which startled Houtu, who immediately retracted it. Although it was only for a moment, it almost caused Samsara to collapse.

"What is this?"

"I don't know. More than three hundred years ago, I suddenly sensed that there was an opportunity for me in the depths of chaos, so I rushed over, only to find a huge piece of flesh and blood."

"Huge amounts of flesh and blood?"

Ye Yang was taken aback, but after Hou Tu finished listening, Ye Yang vaguely understood.

"Could it be such a coincidence?"

"Ancestor of Humanity, do you know anything?"

Ye Yang took a deep breath before explaining the whole story. The Ancestral Witch Houtu was shocked after hearing it.

"You mean you and Hongjun joined forces to drive away the Chaos Beast? My God, is there really a vast world beyond the primordial wilderness?"

Houtu was terrified. According to Ye Yang's description, the Chaos Beast was made entirely of Chaos Spiritual Treasures, and she must have accidentally eaten a piece of flesh that fell from the Chaos Beast, thus allowing her body to reach the level of a Primordial Treasure.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and Houtu said to Ye Yang:

"Ancestor of Humanity, since I can consume the flesh and blood of the Chaos Beast to enhance my own strength, then..."

The Ancestral Witches are the inheritors of Pangu's essence blood, which is already a top-tier bloodline in the prehistoric world. However, in the context of the entire Chaos, they are much weaker. Even the three thousand demon gods in the Chaos are far stronger than them.

"Houtu, do you intend to devour the Chaos Beast to strengthen your body and enhance your bloodline?"

"Yes."

Houtu stood up and slowly walked around, saying:

"The Ancestral Witches do not cultivate the primordial spirit. Although I possess the primordial spirit of Pangu, I am ultimately more skilled in physical cultivation. The Nine Revolutions Profound Technique is also a method of body refinement."

He turned around and looked at Ye Yang:

"The Father God proved the Dao through force, which is the most terrifying of the three thousand Great Daos. The Primordial Ancestral Witches could not cultivate the Primordial Spirit, so they had no other way but to prove the Dao through force."

Houtu sat down again in front of Ye Yang, appearing quite impatient.

"Ye Yang, you must help me. Although I have been cultivating continuously since I became the Earthly Dao Ancestor, I have not made any progress. I want to rely on the Earthly Dao Saint to prove the Dao and improve my cultivation. This is too little, not even enough to fill Hongjun's teeth."

Houtu gripped Ye Yang's hand tightly:

"Find a way to help me. I've found my way forward. You have to help me. I know you're special."

Looking at Ye Yang with such affectionate eyes, Ye Yang felt as if he was about to break down. After a while, Ye Yang came back to his senses and let out a long breath, understanding the urgency of the Ancestral Witch Houtu.

However, the path Houtu chose was far too arduous. Body cultivation is the most difficult, and proving the Dao through force is even more difficult.

Are you really sure about it?

"Okay, I've decided."

Houtu nodded repeatedly. Having finally found her own path, how could she let go?

"I cultivate my physique, I prove the Dao with strength, and I transcend with strength. Ye Yang, after I ate that piece of the Chaos Beast's flesh and blood, my body has reached the limit of a Primordial Treasure. I'm just one step away from taking that final step. I know you have a way to help me."

thud

Ye Yang was shocked. Was this the limit of a supreme innate treasure? Ye Yang immediately freed his hand and grabbed it. It didn't matter where he grabbed it. After a long while, Ye Yang withdrew his hand in shock.

Looking at Houtu, whose face was flushed and who was panting heavily, he said:

"This is truly the limit of a Primordial Treasure, but why hasn't it broken through to the level of a Chaos Spiritual Treasure?"

Ye Yang vaguely sensed something:

Could it be...?

"Could it be?"

Houtu hurriedly squatted down in front of Ye Yang, her posture was a bit... well, you know.

"Could it be that this is the primordial wilderness, where chaos transformed into the primordial wilderness after Pangu separated heaven and earth, and only the innate realm remained?"

Looking at Houtu, Ye Yang recalled his Ancestral Scepter and then said:

"Perhaps we can try going into the Chaos; maybe we can break through to the Chaos Spiritual Treasure realm there."

Ye Yang briefly described the battle scene from back then, but the Ancestral Witch Houtu shook her head:

"That's impossible. I reached the limit of the innate treasure in the deepest part of chaos back then, and I couldn't improve it any further, so I came back."

Damn it.

Why is it that I can't break through to the level of Chaos Spiritual Treasure?

"Could it be a problem with the fit?"

"What do you mean?"

Ye Yang said:

"Houtu, if my guess is correct, the innate treasure is the limit for your ancestral witches."

Upon hearing this, Houtu seemed to have been struck by lightning.

"How could this happen? Is there really no way to fix it?"

Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, and Ye Yang sighed, saying:

"Perhaps... there really is no other way."
