Primordial Era: Innate gourd vine, self-dismemberment

Chapter 63 Outside Zixiao Palace

The vast majority met the same fate; only a few, who did not fly far and returned in time, managed to save their lives.

Of course, there are also a very few who possess acquired spiritual treasures crafted by Great Luo Golden Immortals, or even innate spiritual treasures, which can withstand the erosion of chaotic energy before their magical power is exhausted.

They plunged headlong into the inner chaos. Some exhausted their magic power and silently perished in the inner chaos, while others sensed a mysterious pull and rushed towards the location of Zixiao Palace.

Not to mention the many beings who risked their lives to pursue the Dao, with Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling crossing the membrane of heaven and earth and entering the inner chaos.

They saw endless chaotic energy surging towards them, trying to tear them apart and erode and assimilate them.

However, as Great Luo Golden Immortals at their peak, their physical bodies and primordial spirits are comparable to mid-to-high-grade innate spiritual treasures, so they will naturally not be eroded or assimilated by mere chaotic energy.

They were surrounded by the power of the Great Dao, which firmly blocked and pushed away the endless chaotic energy.

Moreover, at this moment, a series of purifying lights rose from beneath their feet, and a twelfth-grade purifying white lotus and three ninth-grade purifying white lotuses suddenly appeared, floating beneath their feet and purifying the chaotic energy around them.

As soon as they stepped into the inner chaos, Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling all trembled. They sensed the pull from the darkness. Without words or divination, they naturally had an epiphany: that was the location of Zi Xiao Palace.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling joined forces to unleash their supernatural powers and quickly fled towards the sensed location.

Being in chaos makes it difficult to perceive the precise passage of time.

After flying for an unknown amount of time, Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling suddenly felt a bright light before their eyes. An ancient and solemn palace suddenly appeared in their senses, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

No, that's not right. It shouldn't be said that it appeared suddenly. It had always been lurking in the chaos. After they arrived here, it was Zixiao Palace that took the initiative to manifest, which is why they were able to sense it.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yuan Yan and the other three quickened their pace and fled towards Zixiao Palace.

Soon, the four landed on a platform in front of the palace gate. The platform was empty at the moment, which clearly meant they were the first to arrive.

Arriving at the location closest to the palace gate, Yuan Yan and the other three waited patiently.

Before long, a slight ripple appeared in the chaos, and the four of them looked up and saw a magnificent, dark yellow pagoda suspended above the three streams of pure energy. It was impervious to all laws and paths, and isolated from the chaotic energy. It was flying rapidly toward the platform.

"This is a treasure of acquired merit, the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda!" Yuan Yan's eyes narrowed slightly as he easily recognized the spiritual treasure.

The Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda was formed from the condensation of one-tenth of the merit of the creation of the world and the primordial primordial energy. It is the companion spiritual treasure of Taiqing Laozi. Standing on one's head, it is impervious to all evil and nothing can break it. It can be called the number one defensive treasure in the primordial world.

With the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, the identities of those three pure energies are obvious!

It is the Three Pure Ones!

"Screech!" Before Yuan Yan and the other three could turn their gaze away from the Three Pure Ones, a long howl rang out.

A giant roc, with wingspans of billions of miles and capable of blotting out the sky in the primordial world, flew rapidly through the chaos. With a flap of its wings, it dispersed all the chaotic energy, and with a single stroke of its wings, it transformed into a golden light and disappeared into the chaos, appearing on the platform in front of the gate of Zixiao Palace.

"Kunpeng is incredibly fast, truly living up to its reputation!" Yuan Yan raised an eyebrow upon seeing this.

He felt that, within the same realm, his speed would be inferior to that of the Kunpeng.

At this moment, it seems that the arrival of the Three Pure Ones and Kunpeng triggered a chain reaction.

Following closely behind, two top-tier innate deities, a man and a woman, surrounded by the Daoist aura of celestial deduction and the profound light of creation, quickly manifested their forms in the chaos and then landed on the platform.

This was just the beginning. Before long, the Chaos Bell, a supreme treasure of creation, appeared on the platform atop the heads of the two three-legged golden crows. Its resounding bell shook away the chaotic energy.

A primordial deity, surrounded by intense blood and killing intent, followed closely behind, standing on a twelve-petaled karmic fire lotus.

Thirteen great paths swirled around his body, and his figure, shrouded in malevolent energy, traversed the chaos solely with his physical form.

At this moment, many top innate deities present, including Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling, were somewhat surprised that so many top innate deities were hidden in the primordial world.

If it weren't for the grand event of a sage preaching, which drew them out, many top-tier innate saints would probably still be holed up in their own dojos, unknown to the primordial world.

Yes, Yuan Yan and the other three were also somewhat surprised, because the top innate saints present were not only those famous powerhouses from the myths of the prehistoric world, but also many they had never heard of before.

For example, Qinghua, Jinxuan, Yaojun, Shuanggu, Qingyan, Ziwei Star Lord Ziguang, Fengdu, etc.

Although they were somewhat surprised, Yuan Yan and the other three did not show it at all and continued to wait patiently.

Suddenly, Nuwa and Fuxi walked towards their location.

"Nuwa/Fuxi greet Brother Yuanyan!" Nuwa and Fuxi bowed slightly, showing proper etiquette.

He then turned his gaze to Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling: "Greetings, fellow Daoists!"

When Yuan Yan saw Nuwa and Fuxi step forward to greet him, he was slightly taken aback at first, but he quickly recovered and returned the greeting: "Greetings, fellow Daoists!"

He then gestured and introduced, "These are my three younger brothers: Yuanjie, Yuanlun, and Yuanling."

"Yuanjie/Yuanlun/Yuanling greet Fellow Daoist Fuxi and Fellow Daoist Nuwa!" Yuanjie, Yuanlun, and Yuanling also bowed to Nuwa and Fuxi.

At this moment, looking at Yuanjie, Yuanlun, and Yuanling, Nuwa couldn't help but exclaim, "These three fellow Daoists are indeed as unfathomable as Brother Yuanyan!"

The name "Four Elements" circulates in the primordial world, and she naturally knows the relationship between Yuan Yan and Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling.

Although I knew that Yuanjie, Yuanlun, and Yuanlun were Yuanyan's younger brothers and would certainly not be weak, I really didn't expect them to be so strong.

She could sense that the Yuan Realm, Yuan Wheel, and Yuan Spirit were all extremely dangerous, and they must all be at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, you flatter us. You and Fellow Daoist Fuxi have already broken through to the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. I'm afraid it won't be long before you're no weaker than us!" Yuan Jie chuckled.

"Of course! One day, I will catch up with you!" Nuwa said with a smile, but her expression was serious.

However, in an instant, her gaze shifted to Yuan Yan, her serious expression vanishing, replaced by a friendly and natural one: "Brother Yuan Yan, I remember you have already broken through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Perfection stage. Have you broken through to an even higher realm?"

"No!" Yuan Yan shook his head slightly, and when he recalled his many failed attempts to break through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

However, he relaxed in an instant and said, "The sage's teachings are a great opportunity. Perhaps I can gain something from listening to the teachings this time and successfully break through my bottleneck."

"Then congratulations in advance, fellow Daoist!" Upon hearing this, the subtle, inexplicable emotion in Nuwa's eyes dissipated, and she revealed a smile.
