Primordial Era: I, Yuan Hong, am solely focused on stability; humanity remains clear-headed

Chapter 213 Unrivaled Among Peers, Yet Still Cautious

As Yuan Hong advanced to the early stage of Quasi-Saint in terms of physical body, countless extraordinary phenomena unfolded around him under the powerful impact of his blood and qi, appearing both dazzling and dreamlike.

At the heart of all the strange phenomena, Yuan Hong, however, was too lazy to care about what was happening around him. He clenched his fist slightly, closed his eyes, and sensed the dramatic changes in his physical body. He looked like a newly born Chaos God King.

His physical body has increased dramatically in all aspects compared to before, reaching another level and becoming a truly top-tier body.

His physical body radiated divine light, and even possessed a fragrance that could attract all living beings. Just smelling it was enough to sweep away the gloom in one's heart and bring a sense of comfort.

The place where he is located is enough to naturally form a Taoist temple!

In later versions of Journey to the West, all the demons in the world knew that eating Tang Sanzang's flesh would grant them immortality, as well as greatly increase their magical power and strength.

The reason for this is simply that Tang Sanzang's previous incarnation, Jin Chanzi, was a quasi-saint and a powerful being.

There is no doubt that Yuan Hong's physical body is far superior to that of Jin Chanzi at his peak.

It could even be said that Yuan Hong's physical body at this time was among the best of the twelve ancestral witches!

Just kidding, he refined two drops of Pangu's essence blood, surpassing the Twelve Ancestral Witches and becoming a low-level Chaos Demon God!

The cultivation techniques he uses are the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique and the Demonic Ape Undying Battle Body, both top-tier physical cultivation techniques, and they are flawless.

The only thing he lacked, along with Dijiang and the others, was his cultivation level.

Even though Yuan Hong has just broken through to the early stage of Quasi-Saint, his physical strength is probably enough to surpass the average of the Twelve Witch Clan!

Perhaps he is still a bit behind Dijiang and Zhujiuyin, who are at the Quasi-Saint level, but he is probably no less than the Ancestral Witches such as Zhurong, Gonggong, and Shebishi, and at least he is not at the bottom.

In the primordial world, this level of physical strength was enough to be considered monstrous.

During the Lich Wars, and even before, many powerful beings had a great headache dealing with the Lich Clan, and what they feared most was their indestructible and unkillable physical bodies!

Even top-grade innate spiritual treasures can be withstood by the physical body, let alone any supernatural powers or techniques. How can we possibly fight against that?

In terms of consumption, it is almost impossible for us to compare with others.

Even a powerful figure like Donghuang Taiyi, who unleashed the innate treasure Chaos Bell, could not instantly inflict fatal damage on the Ancestral Witch!

The best outcome would be to severely injure it, and even then, it would require multiple consecutive attacks to pose a life-threatening risk.

As for wanting to kill quickly in a short time, even if you use your most precious treasure, it is impossible to do so at the Quasi-Saint level!

It could even be said that even a Primordial Saint would be delusional to think he could destroy the body of an Ancestral Witch with a single blow.

The physical body of the Ancestral Witch is just that powerful.

Yuan Hong's physical body has now reached this level, truly deserving the title of "immortal".

The indestructible golden body of Western religions, the Dao body of Eastern Xuanmen, the Asura battle body of the Blood Sea Asura, the bodies of ancient beasts, etc., are almost as thin as paper compared to Yuan Hong. There is no comparison at all.

"boom!"

Yuan Hong suddenly unleashed a punch, devoid of any magical power, consisting solely of pure physical strength. This punch formed an endless beam of light that stretched for hundreds of millions of miles, utterly destroying everything in its path, leaving not even a trace behind.

With the slightest movement of his body, a feeling of omnipotence surged into Yuan Hong's heart, as if he could shatter the sky and reduce the Thirty-Three Heavens to dust with a mere wave of his hand if he so desired!

Of course, Yuan Hong also knew that this was an illusion caused by the sudden increase in power.

However, in reality, his physical body was indeed capable of directly breaking through part of the boundary wall of the Thirty-Three Heavens!

Conquering the entire world was a piece of cake for him.

However, the Thirty-Three Heavens are too vast and enormous to be easily shattered with a single blow.

"Quasi-Saint, Quasi-Saint..."

"I wonder how many punches an ordinary quasi-saint could withstand from me?"

A wild, unrestrained laugh gradually spread across Yuan Hong's lips. There was no way around it; the strength he gained from breaking through his cultivation level was far greater than he had originally imagined!

Although his primordial spirit has not improved and his realm of laws has not broken through, he is still able to dominate the world with just his physical body!

No matter how complex or bizarre the opponent's magical abilities are, he can break them with a single punch; with his strength, he can destroy all the laws under heaven.

Although, in terms of cultivation level, he was only equivalent to the early stage of Quasi-Saint who had just severed one of his corpses.

However, with his unparalleled strength among his peers, even with only his physical strength, without needing any spiritual treasures or supreme artifacts, he could easily crush those of the same level.

Even a mid-stage Quasi-Saint might not be his match!

As for something even stronger...

"It's better to play it safe and not be too flashy."

"When my primordial spirit realm is also improved, the power of spiritual treasures will increase dramatically. Moreover, when the laws are also improved, then I will truly be able to act without restraint."

Yuan Hong was ultimately a cautious person and wouldn't be too reckless; he felt it was better to play it safe.

Previously, he had even considered going to the Blood Sea immediately to challenge the Styx Ancestor.

But reason told him that now was not the time, far from it.

After all, he was powerful, but the Styx Ancestor was no pushover either.

Even with the help of a supreme treasure, he was unable to break through the Blood Sea Array set up by the tens of thousands of Blood God Sons released by the Styx River, and could only struggle to hold on.

Even with his current strength, it's still uncertain whether he can even exchange a few blows with the Styx's true form!

A being of Styx's level should not be treated as an ordinary quasi-saint. If he seizes an opportunity, it's no joke.

After all, Yuan Hong probably understood that in the Quasi-Saint realm, each time a corpse is severed, one can advance to a minor realm, and one's magical power and strength can be greatly improved!

Just like the top shaman of the Wu clan, the God of War Xing Tian, ​​who has already advanced to the early stage of Quasi-Saint, he can definitely be considered one of the best among his peers.

However, according to the original timeline, in order to support Chi You, he fought with Haotian of the Heavenly Court and was actually beheaded by Haotian, which greatly reduced his strength!

Haotian was only a mid-stage Quasi-Saint who had severed his two corpses, just one small realm higher than Xingtian!

Even with Xing Tian's strength, indestructible body, and the characteristic of becoming stronger with each battle, he could only flee back in a sorry state in the end, which shows just how great the gap between their cultivation levels really is.

To put it bluntly, those who can reach the level of Quasi-Saint are all rare and unparalleled beings in history. Even most innate saints do not have the qualifications to advance to Quasi-Saint!

Everyone here is basically invincible at their level, or even capable of fighting above their level. Who is weaker than whom? Why should someone at the same level be defeated?

Yuan Hong was confident, but he was not blindly arrogant.
