Houtu is infatuated with me, so I made her lean against the wall.

The Eye of Heaven watched the creature roaring and unleashing streaks of dark lightning and corpse poison as it attacked him, a hazy light swirling in its eyes.

"It's actually a Corpse Ancestor that hasn't yet developed sentience."

The laws of the Heavenly Dao flowed, forming a beam of light that annihilated all attacks launched by living beings.

The Corpse Ancestor is a being that transcends the Three Realms and is not bound by the Five Elements.

Born to be abandoned by the Great Dao, they are unable to cultivate any of the Great Dao's laws.

Yet these creatures possess many innate supernatural abilities, including the power to control all kinds of dark energies such as corpse poison, plague, and dark lightning.

This is not the most terrible.

What's most terrifying is that this creature has no soul or spirit, exists independently of the laws of the Great Dao, and possesses an extremely strong ability to restrain the laws of the Great Dao.

This characteristic makes this creature fearless of attacks and seals from the primordial spirit, giving it an extremely strong ability to escape.

Moreover, this creature doesn't need to cultivate at all; it only needs enough blood and yin energy to grow continuously.

Legend has it that this creature has ruled over countless dimensional universes, turning them all into dead zones.

Ultimately, they angered the primordial rules that were higher than the Great Dao, and were punished by the primordial rules, which completely destroyed the chaos of these planes, returning them to nothingness.

As a result, whenever such a creature is discovered in any cosmic plane, it is completely killed before it can fully mature.

The Heavenly Dao had only glimpsed similar creatures in fragments of the Chaos Era.

Thinking of this, a strong killing intent appeared in the Eye of Heaven.

Although he wanted to destroy the primordial world and obtain the great opportunities contained within it.

However, if such a creature grows up, it will be difficult to deal with even if he obtains a great opportunity.

At that time, even this chaotic world will be ruled by living beings.

This creature has not yet attained enlightenment; if we kill it, we can avoid this danger in advance.

Thinking of this, the Eye of Heaven emitted a dazzling divine light, and the rules of Heaven transformed into countless divine punishments, condensing above the creature's head.

The immense pressure rendered the creature immobile.

But the creatures remained defiant, roaring incessantly.

"wrong!"

Just as Heaven was preparing to completely exterminate the creatures, it suddenly discovered something unusual.

Even though these creatures have not yet attained enlightenment and have not developed consciousness, their innate instincts allow them to avoid danger in advance.

Once a creature senses impending danger, it will flee in advance.

But the creature before them did not do so.

Why?

Could it be...?

Thinking of a possibility, the Heavenly Dao's eyes flashed, radiating boundless divine light that penetrated the creature's body, continuously analyzing every part of it.

"Well done, Hongjun! It seems you've already noticed the anomaly and were making plans all along."

From within the living being, the Heavenly Dao discovered a wisp of Hongjun's primordial spirit.

The reason this creature did not avoid it in advance was because it had been controlled by Hongjun beforehand and had its primordial spirit imprinted on it.

Thinking of this, Tiandao's eyes flickered.

After thinking for a while, he sneered inwardly.

Now that Hongjun has merged with him, he had previously sensed that the human race was rapidly growing, with not only four more saints but also one more saint emperor ahead of schedule.

If this happens, humanity will be completely out of control.

Humanity's power will also surge, reaching a level equal to that of Heaven.

Heaven would naturally not allow such a situation to occur.

Therefore, the Heavenly Dao, having blocked Hongjun's perception, quietly came to this place to lay out its plans.

The original intention was to enhance the strength of the zombie race, to produce more saints among them, and thus hinder the path to enlightenment of the human saint emperor.

Unexpectedly, the leader of this zombie clan was actually a zombie ancestor.

Moreover, this Corpse Ancestor was actually controlled by Hongjun.

If he were to use the primordial spirit that was intercepted by Hongjun when he merged with the Dao, and then integrate it into the Heavenly Dao Seal, wouldn't he be able to control a Corpse Ancestor?

Thinking of the legendary power of the Corpse Ancestor, the Heavenly Dao became more and more excited. Its rules rapidly condensed, combining with a wisp of Hongjun's primordial spirit to form a Heavenly Dao Seal, which was then injected into the Corpse Ancestor's body.

In an instant, the Corpse Ancestor clutched his head, struggling frantically, his roar causing ripples to spread through the surrounding space.

At the same time, the surrounding corpse poison and blood energy became increasingly violent, and the vast power collided continuously, causing a series of explosions.

A burst of divine power erupted, turning this space into a complete mess.

After an unknown amount of time, the Corpse Ancestor stopped roaring, calmly knelt on both knees, and repeatedly kowtowed to the Eye of Heaven.

Upon seeing this, the Eye of Heaven let out a series of delighted smiles.

"From this day forward, you shall be a general. I, the Lord of Heaven, bestow upon you the fortune of Heaven and the essence of the Demon God."

As he spoke, the Heavenly Dao rapidly condensed its fortune and channeled it into the Corpse Ancestor's body.

At the same time, a drop of essence blood, exuding immense power, was forced out and entered the Corpse Ancestor's body.

The Corpse Ancestor, having received the Heavenly Dao's fortune and the essence of the Demon God, grew increasingly powerful.

A powerful force emanated from the Corpse Ancestor and spread outwards.

"roar!!!"

The Corpse Ancestor roared to the sky, its sharp claws tearing through space, creating a pitch-black passage.

The zombie clan, which had been rampaging through the primordial wilderness, immediately stopped their cultivation upon hearing the roar of the Corpse Ancestor and returned to the underground space through the dark passage.

At the same time, the coffins floating in the underground space opened simultaneously, and zombies exuding profound auras flew out and knelt behind the Corpse Ancestor.

"I am Jiang Chen, the progenitor of zombies!"

"Follow this ancestor to conquer the human race!"

As he spoke, Jiang Chen's scarlet eyes shot out a divine light that pierced through tens of thousands of miles and shot straight toward the newly built Corpse-Suppressing Pass.

"Boom!!!"

As the divine light reached the gates of Zhenshi Pass, a golden canopy suddenly appeared above the pass, accompanied by a violent explosion.

"Enemy attack!"

The human cultivators guarding the Corpse-Suppressing Pass immediately issued a warning upon seeing this scene.

Upon hearing the sound, one after another, the innate human race flew to the front of the Corpse-Suppressing Pass.

Even the Suirenshi, Ziyishi, and Youchaoshi, who were stationed at Zhenshi Pass, should have flown into the sky with solemn expressions and looked out over Zhenshi Pass after sensing the vast divine power of the previous attack.

If it weren't for the Twelve Zodiacs Protecting Clan Formation, that attack would have likely caused heavy losses to Zhenshi Pass.

This is absolutely not something a Primordial Golden Immortal cultivator could utter.

Could it be that a saint has also been born among the zombie race?

But why did the primordial world not show any unusual phenomena?

It should be known that whether a sage or a Primordial Golden Immortal is born, the primordial world will display auspicious signs to celebrate.

At the same time, the aura of a person who has just attained enlightenment will involuntarily spread, using the power of the three paths of heaven, earth, and humanity to permeate every corner of the primordial world, thus announcing to all living beings in the primordial world that a new life has been born.

If a saint or a Grand Luo Immortal were to be born among the zombie race, such an anomaly should occur.

Why didn't they sense it at all?

Or is it that the saint of this zombie race has already attained enlightenment?

Regardless of the situation, the zombies have come with ill intentions this time.

Thinking of this, Suirenshi roared, "Xuantian, go and inform His Majesty the Holy Emperor that the zombie clan is about to launch a large-scale invasion, and that the enemy may have a saint among them."

"The rest of you, follow me to fight off the zombies."

"Heaven and earth are boundless, the universe borrows its power, and the celestial and terrestrial talismans are condensed!"

"The sacred flame of humanity burns eternally, consuming all things; the fighting spirit never dies, the sacred flame never dies!"

As Suirenshi looked at the dark mass of zombies attacking Zhenshi Pass, he rapidly circulated his magic power, and the law of fire quickly condensed, forming one hundred and eight talismans arranged in the positions of the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends, which floated in the air.

At the same time, he unleashed the Innate Merit Treasure, the Staff of Fire, which transformed into a raging holy fire that shot towards the vanguard of the zombie clan.
