Traversing countless worlds from the primordial era

Lei Ming seized the opportunity and quickly escaped.

At this moment, Hongjun Laozu had already caught Pingxin Niangniang's last axe blow. Several threads of his whisk broke, and his Taoist robe was torn.

Apart from that, Hongjun Laozu had no other injuries.

"We are no match for him, retreat quickly!" Lei Ming shouted. He joined up with Luo Hou and Lady Pingxin, "Together we will destroy this world and delay Hongjun's progress."

Knowing they couldn't defeat Hongjun Laozu now, Luo Hou and Pingxin Niangniang simultaneously unleashed their magic, landing on the newly created Great Thousand World. The nascent Great Thousand World immediately collapsed, unleashing a surging destructive force that pushed aside the surrounding chaos. Lei Ming and the other two used this force to quickly escape towards the Primordial World, while Hongjun Laozu was blocked by this force and unable to catch up with them.

"Unless you escape to other chaotic realms, you will eventually become provisions for the Ancestor." Ancestor Hongjun looked in the direction the three fled and smiled coldly.

During their escape, the three of them also discussed their options.

"Demon Ancestor, you said that if I cultivate the Pangu Dharma Body and obtain the Heaven-Opening Axe, I will be able to restrain Hongjun. Why is that?" Lady Pingxin asked. In order to cultivate the Pangu Dharma Body, the strength of the entire Witch Clan was weakened by more than half, and even the Ancestral Witches contributed 80% of their essence and blood. Because of this, Lady Pingxin was full of expectations for the Pangu Dharma Body.

However, the result greatly disappointed her. The powerful Pangu Dharma Body, combined with the Heaven-Opening Axe, was still no match for Hongjun Laozu.

Luo Hou was also frustrated, as he had always felt that he had grasped the weakness of Hongjun Laozu.

"It must be that Hongjun refined the Heavenly Dao and broke through his realm, otherwise he would definitely not be your match," Luo Hou said.

"Another breakthrough? Wouldn't that mean reaching the Heavenly Dao Realm?" Lei Ming said. "If Hongjun really achieves the Heavenly Dao Realm, then we might as well just wait to die. How can we possibly escape from him? In my opinion, Demon Ancestor, you've probably misjudged Hongjun. He's not so easy to deal with."

"What's the use of saying all this now?" Luo Hou said. "The most urgent thing is to escape Hongjun's pursuit. At least one thing we can be sure of is that Hongjun absolutely does not want the prehistoric world to be destroyed, so the prehistoric world is still safe for the time being, but this is not a long-term solution. Once Hongjun no longer has this concern, we can only wait to be killed by him."

"That's not necessarily true!" Lei Ming pondered. "As long as Hongjun hasn't reached the Heavenly Dao Realm, we still have a chance. Demon Ancestor, Lady Pingxin, I hope everyone can put aside past grievances and sincerely join forces to deal with Hongjun. What do you two think?"

Rahu and the Goddess of Peace immediately nodded in agreement.

"Very well, Hongjun has already refined most of the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial World. To restrict him, we would need an even more powerful world. We currently have three Great Thousand Worlds, plus one Earth Immortal Realm, making four Great Thousand Worlds in total. If we can merge these four Great Thousand Worlds into one complete world, the new world will certainly not be lower in level than the Primordial World. At that time, we can use the new world as our main arena to fight against Hongjun, which should increase our chances of victory."

While they were discussing, the three of them arrived at the edge of the prehistoric world.

"You must decide on this matter quickly, otherwise if Hongjun stops caring about the Heavenly Realm, we're finished." Seeing Luo Hou and Lady Pingxin remain silent, Lei Ming couldn't help but say.

"If the three of you are working together, who will be the leader?" Consort Pingxin asked.

Lei Ming's eyes flickered twice, and he said, "Your Majesty has now cultivated the Pangu Dharma Body and has the Heaven-Opening Axe in hand. Your strength is the strongest among the three of us, and I am willing to take Your Majesty as the leader."

Empress Pingxin was somewhat surprised, and she immediately glanced at Luo Hou. Luo Hou looked at Lei Ming, already understanding his intentions.

"Lei Ming knows he cannot become the leader of the three, and he is also wary of me, so he has chosen Ping Xin as the leader."

Luo Hou harbored resentment, but there was nothing he could do. Of course, he also wanted to become the leader, but Lei Ming didn't support him at the moment. If he really wanted to compete, it would only ruin his relationship with Consort Pingxin.

Thinking of this, Luo Hou could only say, "I agree with Lei Ming's words."

Empress Pingxin was pleasantly surprised. She knew what the two were thinking, but since this matter would only benefit her and not harm her, she would certainly not refuse.

"Since both of you fellow Daoists have put it this way, then I cannot refuse. Let us immediately summon our respective Great Thousand Worlds, and then merge the four worlds with the Underworld World as the center."

Having made their decision, Lei Ming and Luo Hou did not hesitate. After entering the Primordial World, the Time-Space World and the Demon Realm immediately descended. They had already refined their respective Great Thousand Worlds, so summoning the power of the world was not difficult.

Empress Pingxin acted decisively, immediately drawing upon the power of the Underworld. The three Great Thousand Worlds, located at different points in the river of time, could not possibly merge immediately. However, under the control of Lei Ming and the other two, the primordial power of the three Great Thousand Worlds began to merge, and gradually, a connection was established between them.

"What about the Earthly Immortal Realm?" Empress Pingxin looked at the unclaimed Earthly Immortal Realm, where Yuan Zhantian and Zhenyuan Daxian were still fighting over it.

"Drive these ants away," Luo Hou said impatiently. In his eyes, all beings that had not achieved Hunyuan were ants.

"No!" Lei Ming immediately said, "Not only should we not drive them away, but we should also help them attain enlightenment. In this way, we can gain another ally."

"By the time these people attain enlightenment, Hongjun will probably have killed us a thousand times over," Rahu said.

"How do we know it won't work if we don't try?" Lei Ming said. "The worst-case scenario is that they can't attain enlightenment, and we can simply merge the Earthly Immortal Realm into the new world."

"This..." Empress Pingxin leaned towards Lei Ming's opinion. She looked at Luo Hou, and Luo Hou finally nodded in agreement.

"Since it's a contest for the opportunity to prove one's Dao, then everyone should have a chance." With a wave of his hand, Luo Hou sent countless demons into the Earthly Immortal Realm, including the four Quasi-Saints of the demon race.

Not to be outdone, Lady Pingxin moved the Ancestral Witches and Great Witches from the Underworld to the Immortal Realm. As a result, the Immortal Realm had an unprecedented number of powerful beings, and the battles became increasingly fierce.

In the eastern part of the Earthly Immortal Realm, Yuan Zhantian and Yunxiao temporarily stopped. Lei Ming had already sent them a telepathic message, informing them of the current situation in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

"What are your opinions, fellow senior brothers?" Yuan Zhantian asked.

Yunxiao shook his head and said, "We don't even know what the opportunity to attain enlightenment is, so how can we compete with various forces?"

Zhao Gongming also said, "I still have no clue, what about you?"

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances; the so-called opportunity to attain enlightenment was far too elusive.

"Don't be discouraged, everyone. We don't know what the opportunity to attain enlightenment is, and neither do others. Let's just leave it to fate," Yang Jiao said.
