The Primordial Era: Starting with Becoming a Disciple of the Queen Mother of the West

Chapter 128 The Eastern Emperor Relieves the Siege

Xuan Yao hid in the shadow of the ancient tree, his heart suddenly sinking.

It should be known that the Eastern King Duke was the head of the male immortals personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor. His cultivation had already been mastered by the Dao Ancestor through the two lectures on the method of severing corpses, allowing him to break through the Great Luo realm and reach the level of Quasi-Saint.

Such a person's presence, without even lifting a finger, was enough to freeze the surrounding void within tens of millions of miles as if it were solidified by his pure Yang Dao energy.

The innate pure energy that originally flowed freely above Phoenix Unicorn Immortal Continent was now being forced back layer by layer by the purple clouds and pure yang true fire, and even the clouds showed some disorder.

Before such a powerful being from the primordial era, Xuan Yao's meager cultivation at the early stage of Taiyi, along with Yun Ying Dao Ren's disguise, was of little use.

He felt as if his inner thoughts were being squeezed by a giant hand, making it difficult to function, and his breathing became heavy.

That overwhelming power descending from the heavens was no exaggeration; it caused his bones to creak and his blood to surge.

On the imperial carriage, the Eastern King Duke lowered his eyes slightly, his golden pupils swirling with pure Yang fire, and he only glanced at them indifferently.

This single glance was like a divine blade piercing through the fog, passing straight through layers of spiritual mist and striking Xuan Yao, who was hiding.

Even if he had some ability to conceal the secrets of heaven under the watchful eye of the Great Luo, it would be difficult to deceive such a person.

With just one glance, Xuan Yao's true and false nature was almost completely revealed.

The lingering effects of the curse were traces left behind from his previous battle with the demon god's essence in the chaotic rift.

Within the dantian and dantian, the energy of the Purple Gold Exquisite Pagoda was not yet completely stable.

A golden glint flashed in the eyes of the Eastern King, and a wave of emotion surged within him.

He came here in person for the opportunity of the birth of the Phoenix and Unicorn Immortal Continent, but he never expected that a junior would beat him to it.

What surprised him even more was that this junior not only managed to escape from the chaotic rift, but also obtained such good fortune in the Immortal Continent.

Especially that purple-gold pagoda, with its perfectly integrated restrictions and profound aura, was clearly not an ordinary spiritual treasure.

Even someone with the Dongwanggong's discerning eye couldn't help but take a second look.

When he focused his attention and saw through the disguise to understand Xuan Yao's background, the strange look in his eyes immediately turned cold.

He recognized it and even figured out the cause and effect.

During the grand gathering at Yaochi in Xikunlun, he originally intended to form a Daoist bond with the Queen Mother of the West, thereby uniting the power of Zifu Continent and Xikunlun to jointly govern the immortals.

To everyone's surprise, the Queen Mother of the West refused in public, showing no mercy whatsoever.

Afterwards, on the white jade Dharma performance platform, his prized disciple Chunyangzi was defeated on the spot by a black tiger from Xikunlun wielding a flying golden sword, causing Zifuzhou to lose face and becoming a laughing stock for all.

That black tiger was the person standing before them.

The Eastern King was very concerned about his reputation, and he had kept that grudge to himself all along.

Old grudges have not been settled, and new hatreds have been added.

What's more, this black tiger was actually disguised as a celestial official from Zifu Continent, and had seized an opportunity in his territory.

If this gets out, wouldn't it be a public slap in the face for him?

Thinking of this, the Eastern King's expression grew even colder.

"What a wicked beast from Xikunlun."

He spoke coldly, his voice like thunder, instantly reverberating throughout the entire Phoenix and Unicorn Immortal Continent. The sound waves rolled across mountains and rivers, causing trees to tremble and stones to fall in a flurry.

The Eastern King sat upright in his precious carriage, too lazy to even get up, and casually stretched out a palm.

The palm swelled in the wind, instantly covering half the sky. Pure Yang True Fire surged within its palm like a tidal wave, appearing from afar like a blazing sun pressing down upon Xuan Yao.

At the same time, his condescending tone fell again.

"This young fellow from Xikunlun has trespassed into the immortal island of Zifuzhou and stolen innate spiritual treasures. His crime deserves to be punished."

Today, I will cleanse the household of the Queen Mother of the West and let you know what the will of Heaven is.

These words were spoken in a grand and dignified manner, both securing a legitimate claim and making the robbery and murder seem justified.

For him, killing a junior at the Taiyi Realm was as easy as turning his hand.

Xuan Yao looked up and saw that the giant palm of pure yang covered the sky and the sun, and the surrounding void had already been sealed off by the will of the Great Luo.

The Taiyi Escape Technique is utterly ineffective against such a figure.

He felt as if his magical power was trapped in a quagmire, making it extremely difficult to even raise his hand.

Before the pure Yang true fire could even land, its scorching intent had already arrived, constantly eroding the pure Qi of virtue on his body. Even the Yin-Yang water and fire guardian generals in his sea of ​​consciousness began to stir with agitation.

Xuan Yao stared intently at the massive, pressing palm, his spiritual energy surging rapidly within him, barely managing to suppress the instinctive fear within the black tiger.

He knew in his heart that he was now in a hopeless situation.

The difference between Taiyi and Daluo is not just the depth of their magical power, but also the level of their Taoist cultivation.

Ordinary magical treasures and ingenious methods are simply not enough to bridge this insurmountable barrier.

But he cultivates the method of warding off evil with good fortune, which emphasizes survival in desperate situations. Even if there is only a sliver of hope left, there is no reason to give up and wait for death.

At the critical moment of life and death, Xuan Yao's dantian and qi sea suddenly trembled.

The incompletely refined purple-gold pagoda seemed to sense its master's danger and spontaneously burst out of his body, hovering above his head.

The pagoda grew taller in the wind, instantly becoming about ten feet high. Forty-three innate restrictions on the pagoda's body circulated in unison, emitting a large amount of purple-gold light.

Layers of precious light descended, finally managing to create three feet of space for Xuan Yao under the pressure of the giant pure yang palm.

However, Xuan Yao ultimately failed to refine this top-grade innate spiritual treasure to perfection, and the power of the pagoda was far from being fully unleashed.

Even before a Great Immortal like the Eastern King Duke, the three-foot-long precious light was still suppressed and gradually shrank.

The tower trembled incessantly, emitting a low hum, as if it were about to be shattered at any moment.

Xuan Yao gritted his teeth and activated the Taiyi Five Qi, pouring all his magical power into the tower, but he could only barely sustain it.

In the eyes of the Eastern King, such a struggle was tantamount to a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Just as the giant, pure yang palm slowly closed, about to capture Xuan Yao along with the tower, it was about to do so.

At this critical moment, a bell suddenly rang out from the depths of the void.

when.

The bell tolled softly, as if it had come from the beginning of time, spanning countless ages.

Wherever the sound waves pass, everything in the world comes to a standstill.

The churning sea of ​​clouds calmed down, the howling gale stopped, and even the ball of pure yang true fire in the palm of the Eastern King Duke was frozen for several breaths in that instant.

The purple clouds that had been billowing over Phoenix Unicorn Immortal Island then dispersed.

Immediately afterwards, a chaotic-colored ancient bell slowly appeared in the sky.

This bell has a profound ancient meaning. On the outside of the bell, there is the image of the sun, moon and stars flowing together, and on the inside of the bell, there seems to be the mechanism of earth, water, fire and wind. It is a perfect whole and has its own unique atmosphere.

The moment it appeared, a Daoist aura that suppressed the primordial chaos spread out.

It is one of the most precious treasures created in the primordial world, the Chaos Bell.

After the Chaos Bell appeared in the world, it immediately lowered an incomparably thick pillar of chaotic light, protecting both Xuan Yao and the Purple Gold Exquisite Pagoda within it.

The Eastern King Duke's massive, pure Yang palm slammed down, crashing heavily into the pillar of light.

With a muffled thud, the palm strike, though powerful, only rippled across the surface of the pillar of light before failing to advance any further.

The fierce pure yang true fire, once it fell into the chaotic energy, vanished without a trace, like a clay ox entering the sea.

The Eastern King's expression changed instantly, his shock and anger mixed with a hint of fear. He immediately withdrew his palm and looked up at the sky.

Where the Chaos Bell hovered, the void, like a mirror, cracked inch by inch.

From the rift, a majestic figure clad in an imperial robe embroidered with sun patterns stepped out into the air, starlight swirling beneath his feet, his imperial aura pressing down on all sides.

The newcomer was tall and imposing, exuding an aura of dominance, as if a primordial sun had descended upon the world, dimming even the purple clouds above Zifu Continent.

With each step he took forward, the void trembled slightly. The sound was not loud, but it carried a sense of suppressing the entire world.

Once he stood still beside the Chaos Bell, he looked down at the Eastern King on the chariot, a slight smirk playing on his lips, his expression cold and sharp.

The newcomer was none other than the demon emperor, Donghuang Taiyi.
