Primordial Era: Elixir of Qi Transforms into Form, Controlling the Pharmacology of the World

"How come this is all life force? It's as if there's no spiritual energy, no Daoist charm, no fortune here, only the purest life force!" Ling Dan was truly shocked by the endless life force emanating from the temple.

It felt as if there was only life here, and no other energy. The mountains, rivers, and endless oceans that evolved here all carried life, and there was no other matter.

Ling Dan sensed the changes in her physical body and became increasingly puzzled: "The life here is so pure and abundant, why is the Witch Clan...?"

"Why do we, the Witch Clan, rely on the Earthly Fiend Qi to temper our physical bodies? Why can't we, the Witch Clan, who were born in such a land of life, cultivate our primordial spirit?" Houtu knew what Lingdan wanted to ask, so she casually replied.

"Indeed... How could the witch race, nurtured in such a land of life, be tainted by malevolent energy? How could they not cultivate their primordial spirit?" Ling Dan wondered. Such a land of life could absolutely give birth to the most perfect physical body and primordial spirit.

Houtu's expression also darkened, a cold glint and hatred flashing in her eyes: "This brings us to Luo Hou. Back then, Luo Hou somehow found the Ancestral Witch Temple. Relying on the God-Slaying Spear, the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, and many other great artifacts, he tried to force his way into the temple, but ultimately he was unable to shake it and could only return in failure."

Afterwards, Rahu, through some unknown fortuitous encounter, was able to bypass the temple and influence us. Many unborn members of our race were affected and perished. Forced into a corner, we were born prematurely, using the temple to resist Rahu.

Although we ultimately triumphed, our Wu tribe was left with a congenital deficiency, plagued by malevolent energy, making it difficult to cultivate our primordial spirit. Therefore, our Wu tribe as a whole will fight Rahu to the death.

Ling Dan never imagined that the Witch Clan had such a past.

Ling Dan pondered for a moment, but did not continue the topic. Instead, she mentioned the vast life within the temple.

"The life force contained within the temple all originates from the heart of the Father God. Although the quality of this life force has somewhat declined with the passage of time, it is still an absolute divine object for cultivating the physical body in the primordial world. Absorbing the life energy here will definitely allow your physical body to gradually become stronger and undergo transformation," Houtu said casually.

Ling Dan nodded.

After a long while, they arrived inside the temple.

Here stand numerous grand halls, each crafted from the unique life-giving substance found within the temple.

Numerous grand halls house countless treasures. According to Houtu, the divine materials, spiritual roots, and treasures collected by the Wu clan over the years are all stored here.

At the heart of all the grand halls is a temple crafted in imitation of the Ancestral Witch Temple.

Upon entering, you'll see Zhu Jiuyin and the others!

They were discussing something, and there was some arguing between them. When they noticed Ling Dan walk in, they didn't seem suspicious at all. They didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Ling Dan, an outsider, entering the Ancestral Witch Temple.

"Brother Ling Dan...you're back, that's wonderful! Come here quickly and give me your judgment!" Zhu Rong was truly anxious and aggrieved, his anger burning within him.

He pulled Ling Dan aside and explained the cause and effect of the argument: "Brother Ling Dan... our entire Wu clan is currently facing a special bottleneck. The only way for the entire clan to break through this bottleneck is for our ancestral Wu to break through to the Hunyuan realm."

However, our Wu clan is special; we don't cultivate the primordial spirit, only the physical body. No one knows what it will be like to break through to the Primordial Chaos Realm. To stabilize the overall situation, we discussed and decided to first select one Ancestral Wu to break through to the Primordial Chaos Realm, going against the current to gather some experience.

In terms of physical body, I, Zhu Rong, am absolutely at the peak of the half-step Hunyuan realm. The Great Dao of Fire nurtured within me, when unleashed, can scorch the heavens and overturn the earth. Venturing into the River of Daos and going against the current is no joke for me. But these guys want to snatch it from me…”

Zhu Rong's rant finally made Ling Dan understand what was going on.

Di Jiang was preparing to break through to the Hunyuan realm, but the unique nature of the Wu clan made this breakthrough uncertain. For the sake of the greater good, the other Ancestral Wu were preparing to attain Hunyuan status, thus providing Di Jiang with valuable experience.

After all, Dijiang is the current patriarch of the Wu tribe, and nothing can go wrong with him.

Jumang scoffed, growling at Zhurong, "Among the Twelve Ancestral Witches, I am the most suitable to break through to the Primordial Chaos Realm. My physical body is invincible, and I have cultivated to the peak of the Half-Step Primordial Chaos Realm. My body contains the Great Dao of Wood, evolving into life, making me immortal. I am also the one among my brothers and sisters who experiences the least conflict with the life energy within the temple. Even if I fail, I can recover using the life energy within the temple!"

Upon hearing this, the many ancestral witches argued back and forth.

Ling Dan looked on, unsure of what to say.

Suddenly, Zhu Jiuyin asked Ling Dan, "Brother Ling Dan, your master, Fellow Daoist Taiqing, has entered the Hunyuan Realm. Has he had any insights?"

Ling Dan naturally wouldn't hide anything: "I have gained insights. To put it simply, entering the Primordial Chaos Realm and going against the current means..."

Ling Dan told Zhu Jiuyin and the others what she knew.

However, as they recounted their experiences, they ultimately found it difficult to confront the Witch Clan. After all, the Witch Clan was too unique; they did not cultivate the primordial spirit, but only the physical body, which served as the basis for their Dao.

The discussion went on for a long time without any results. However, it did reveal that Dijiang had gone into seclusion to prepare for his breakthrough.

After years of discussion, there's still no definitive answer.

But then a roar came from the depths of the temple, rippling with energy and profound Daoist charm, as if the space itself were folded.

"Oh no... Big Brother is about to break through..." Zhu Rong suddenly said.

"What's going on? Wasn't it agreed that we would break through first and accumulate experience before he broke through?" Zhu Jiuyin was also curious and rushed over instantly.

A short while later, at Buzhou Land, Dijiang's physical body underwent a transformation, his qi and blood soaring to the heavens, and endless Dao flourished, spreading throughout the boundless heavens. With a single glance, the heavens evolved. With another glance, the heavens were annihilated.

With a single step, he broke free from the shackles of the boundless Great Dao. A cold snort shattered the Great Dao itself.

His deep gaze fixed on Zhu Jiuyin and the others: "Second brother...you've arrived..."

"Big brother, didn't we agree that we would go first, you..." Zhu Jiuyin shouted, looking at his elder brother's aura and appearance, as if he was about to enter another level.

"I am the patriarch of the Witch Clan, and also your eldest brother. Now, the heavy responsibility of the entire Witch Clan breaking through the bottleneck and finding the path to the future naturally falls to me. Currently, my physical body has already reached the limit of the half-step Primordial Chaos Realm. Under the True Body of the Great Dao, with the help of the Father God's Dao Rhyme, it is comparable to the Primordial Chaos Realm. So leave everything to me." Di Jiang shouted, and stepped forward, crossing everything, and charged into the long river.

At that moment, the wind and clouds changed color, and endless pressure descended upon the Great Dao River.

Countless Dao Fruit cultivators who had been sleeping were instantly awakened. They turned to look at Di Jiang's figure, their expressions filled with astonishment.

"What, what's going on?"

"Good heavens... Ancestral Witch Emperor Jiang is going against the current, he's going to break through to the Primordial Chaos Realm!"

"The Witch Clan doesn't cultivate their primordial spirit, only their physical body. How can they go against the tide and break through to the next level?"

"Unprecedented. All known Primordial Chaos cultivators have cultivated their primordial spirit and condensed their Dao fruit. This is absolutely the first time a cultivator with such an immortal primordial spirit has broken through to the Primordial Chaos realm!"

Countless powerful beings were clear-headed, looking at Dijiang who stood on the long river of the Great Dao, and they were very clear about his choice.

His choice has astonished and drawn the attention of all living beings in the primordial world.

Whether they were cultivators of the Taiqing or Shangqing realms, or even the Demon Court's Emperor Jun, and countless other powerful beings, all gazed at the Great Dao River. They watched as Emperor Jiang, relying solely on his physical body, attempted to break through to the Hunyuan realm.

Dijiang arrived at the edge of the Great Dao River, gazing at the surging, cascading torrent of the Great Dao, his entire body entwined with the Great Dao: "Come... Today, I, Dijiang, will go against the current and achieve the Primordial Chaos Realm. I will forge a new path for my Wu Clan!"

With that, Dijiang rushed toward the great torrent before him.

The torrent of the Great Dao flowing downstream swept across the divine might and oppressive power of the Great Dao, unparalleled in its might.

Within that terrifying torrent, the endless changes of time are intertwined.

"Get out..." Di Jiang shouted, his domineering aura overwhelming, as he stepped into the torrent.

That single drop of torrent could suppress all the heavens, heavier than countless intertwined universes.

Now, countless water droplets have transformed into a torrent, a tsunami, rushing towards us, truly vast. It is estimated that in the primordial world, ninety percent of the Dao Fruit cultivators would find it difficult to withstand the onslaught of such a torrent.

But now, Dijiang neither intertwines with the Great Dao nor engages in battle; he merely shouts and pours out endless sound waves.

When the sound waves met the torrent, an explosive sound instantly reverberated.

With a deafening roar, the mighty torrent shattered, surged, and dissipated, transforming into countless droplets that vanished into the past and present, into the years, and into all the heavens…

This scene caused many powerful figures to gasp in astonishment and many strong individuals to freeze in disbelief. Countless powerful figures, countless half-step Primordial Chaos cultivators, or those who had previously broken through to Primordial Chaos, all faced a torrent that required considerable effort to withstand. Yet, it was easily shattered by Di Jiang's roar—this was simply unbelievable.

Many cultivators gasped in astonishment, gazing at the Emperor River flowing upstream.

Dijiang continued to march forward, his roars dispersing the torrents as he moved with ease. After a short distance, the dispersed torrents gradually regrouped, sweeping up waves that surged towards Dijiang once more.

At this moment, Dijiang, looking at the surging waves, neither roared nor resisted, but simply relied on his physical body to move forward.

Now, as time has passed, the Dijiang battle has raged for countless years.

The boundless, powerful artifacts, transforming into a torrent, had caused him considerable harm. Now, his specially tempered body had also been slashed by numerous powerful artifacts, leaving several scratches. These scratches were, in a sense, scars of the Great Dao. Without clearing away the Great Dao contained within them, they would be difficult to heal.

Even so, Dijiang still managed to break through the torrent and arrive at the middle of the great torrent.

A loud "bang" rang out, and then Dijiang smashed many great artifacts.

Dijiang swept across numerous powerful artifacts, gazing at the vast torrent: "Although I don't know what's going on, I have a feeling of hostility watching me. Who is it, and what do they want? Come on..."

Being in the midst of the great torrent of the Great Dao, and feeling the erosion of this immense flow, Di Jiang naturally sensed far more than any bystander. Therefore, he clearly felt that the torrent carried a kind of inexplicable hostility.

The discussion went on for a long time without any results. However, it did reveal that Dijiang had gone into seclusion to prepare for his breakthrough.

After years of discussion, there's still no definitive answer.

That hostility made him feel a sense of danger and also a strange feeling.

But no matter what, he will never give up.
