Chapter 13 The Correct Way to Explore the Primordial World (Two Chapters Combined, Please Recommend and Vote for Further Reading)

Outside the settlement of the tribes at the foot of the mountain, Taiyi and Liujia stopped in their tracks.

Ahead, Mu Heng appeared with a group of divine generals and soldiers.

"Mu Heng greets the Left Inspector of the Mountain!"

Mu Heng first greeted Taiyi, then smiled and said to Liujia, "Fellow Daoist Liujia, what brings you here!"

Liu Jia smiled and said, "I came here to accompany the Left Envoy."

"Oh?"

Mu Heng looked at Tai Yi and smiled, "Is the Left Envoy perhaps on patrol of the mountain?"

"If there is any order, Muheng will certainly obey!"

Taiyi said, "Fellow Daoist Muheng, I have not come here in my capacity as the Left Envoy of the Mountain Patrol."

He didn't mention the matter of Ju Jiang and the others from yesterday. Instead, he took out his Heavenly Golden Sky-Splitting Divine Sword and casually tossed it into the air. With a clang, it stuck into a boulder not far away.

"I have come today to exchange skills."

Taiyi said, "Anyone below the Divine Realm who defeats me will have this Heavenly Golden Sky-Splitting Divine Sword as their own."

"This sword was forged by a god-king, and contains a great gate to the Dao!"

Glug!

Liu Jia and Mu Heng couldn't help but swallow hard, their eyes fixed on the divine sword stuck in the boulder.

As for the divine generals and soldiers under Mu Heng's command, their eyes were almost entirely fixed on the divine sword.

It is a divine sword forged by the God-King, and it also possesses a great Dao Gate.

This is only a little bit away from becoming a legendary acquired spiritual treasure.

"Fellow Daoist Taiyi, you're not joking, are you?"

Liu Jia composed himself and asked.

He had only just entered the realm of true gods, and he didn't even have a single true divine artifact, let alone a divine king artifact.

He now wishes he were a demigod!

Mu Heng also withdrew his gaze, but a divine artifact did not make him completely lose his mind.

Feng Luo Ke has only been dead for a few years!

"Left Envoy, please don't joke. If it's a friendly spar, my divine soldiers and generals will certainly be ready to accompany you."

Wood Constant Path.

He also wanted the divine sword, but he was certain that the Taiyi clan had ill intentions.

If I don't handle this well, I might incur the wrath of the Giant Spirit Clan.

Feng Luo relied on his powerful backer in the Divine Court, but even that backer couldn't save him in time, and he died in the desolate mountains.

But Mu Heng didn't have any powerful backers.

They're not idiots!

Tai Yi sighed inwardly, then realized he had been too polite.

Immediately, with a thought, a divine talisman shot out from between his eyebrows.

This is a talisman representing his three divine positions.

Once the divine symbol is removed, he is no longer a deity.

The divine talisman descended upon Liu Jia, and Taiyi said, "Fellow Daoists of Liu Jia, may you bear witness?"

Looking at the divine soldiers and generals under Mu Heng's command, Tai Yi said calmly, "The divine sword is right there. Do any of you dare to take it?"

Someone swallowed hard, glanced at Mu Heng who hadn't said anything, and asked loudly, "Taiyi Clan, if we're to decide a winner, I'm afraid casualties are inevitable."

"Excuse my bluntness, but if you are harmed, or if we accidentally kill you, I fear the Giant Spirit Mountain God will hold us accountable!"

Taiyi said calmly, "Fellow Daoists Liujia, with Heaven above as witness, this was a fair duel. Who would dare to seek revenge for personal reasons? Under the rule of the Divine Court, in the Three Realms and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, there is no place for such a person to hide!"

As soon as these words were spoken, some people were immediately intrigued and all looked towards Liu Jia.

Liu Jia's eyelids twitched. He glanced at the divine talisman before him and said, "Under the rule of the Divine Court, nothing can be hidden from His Majesty the Human Emperor. A fair duel, life and death are in the hands of fate!"

Mu Heng glanced at the divine sword again, and finally couldn't help but say, "Feng Chi's death was due to a sneak attack from behind; he deserved it."

"Fellow Daoist Taiyi has now challenged me to a duel. The outcome, whether I live or die, depends solely on my strength. If you are interested, let's fight!"

Taiyi leaped with incredible speed, arriving at a mountain peak in the blink of an eye. He tore off his cotton-linen robe, revealing leather armor and bronze skin. Looking down, he roared, "Who dares to challenge me?"

At that moment, many demigods roared in from other places.

At this moment, within the human settlement, many humans climbed onto rooftops and treetops to watch from afar.

Someone was incredibly excited: "That's Taiyi!"

"Is he the great sage who came to our tribe to teach us planting, animal husbandry, and weaving? He is indeed extraordinary!"

"Those fellow clansmen who wanted to teach us cultivation methods yesterday were also sent by him!"

……

Among the human tribes, there are quite a few people who can recognize Taiyi.

It took Taiyi ten years to travel all over the Longmen Mountains and teach planting, animal husbandry, breeding, and weaving techniques.

"I, White Hook, will fight you!"

A loud shout rang out, and a figure rushed out—a young man dressed in black armor.

He was incredibly fast, like a wisp of black smoke, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the mountaintop. He opened his mouth and spat out a jet of black smoke that shot straight toward Tai Yi's face, carrying a foul stench.

This is highly poisonous.

The surrounding vegetation rotted before it even touched the ground.

Black water light appeared on Taiyi's body, rippling and colliding with the black energy dozens of times in an instant. At the moment the black energy collapsed, the water light rolled and gathered the black energy, and the water flowed like a sword, piercing straight into the white hook.

"Hahaha, using my deadly poison against me, how foolish!"

Bai Gou laughed loudly, and shrouded in black mist, he raised his hand to grab at the incoming stream of water.

At the same time, black energy gathered on his body, resembling giant pythons, coiling towards Taiyi from both sides.

Taiyi ignored the attacks from both sides and instead used the Five Dragons Burning Evil Technique, causing flames to burst forth from his body.

Ahead, the water-light sword energy suddenly split into thin, long sword energies, as thin as hair, which pierced through Bai Gou's palms and then riddled his chest with holes.

Strands of sword energy flowed freely within his body, like thousands of ants tearing at him.

"what!"

The white hook let out a piercing roar and scream, sending a chill down the spines of all the onlookers.

The more arrogant they were just now, the more pathetic they are now.

His supernatural powers collapsed, and Bai Gou fell to the ground, rolling around and screaming in agony.

Taiyi glanced at them, then looked down at the people below: "Next!"

Mu Heng's eyelids twitched slightly, and he reached out and grabbed Bai Gou to treat him.

Seeing Bai Gou's pitiful appearance, the scene fell silent. After a few moments, someone stepped forward: "I am Feng Sheng!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the tall man, who was no less imposing than the Giant Spirit and wore bronze armor, strode forward. His exposed muscles were like solid rocks, with distinct layers.

Boom boom boom!

The earth was shaking, and the mountain where Taiyi was located was trembling.

Holding a giant axe, Feng Sheng suddenly accelerated after taking more than ten steps, creating a rumbling sound and billowing dust, leaving deep footprints in his wake.

As they charged to the mountainside, Feng Sheng suddenly roared, and with a collapse of rocks, his tall body rose from the ground, soaring over the mountain peak. He wielded a giant axe and cleaved down at Taiyi at an incredible speed.

The air was cut open, and the broad axe blade plowed a line through the air.

Golden light emanated from Taiyi's body as he enveloped his entire body with the Five Dragons Golden Light Technique, forming a thin layer of armor.

Then he looked up and raised his hand.

clang!

Boom!

Taiyi grabbed the blade of the giant axe that was about to strike, while his feet sank directly into the rocks, and terrifying cracks spread outwards, as if the entire mountain was about to collapse.

In mid-air, Feng Sheng stared wide-eyed, as big as copper bells, in disbelief that Taiyi could catch his terrifying, charged attack with his bare hands.

You should know that with this one axe stroke, he could easily split open a mountain hundreds or even thousands of feet high.

Within Camel Peak, no demigod could withstand such a powerful attack from him.

"Not bad strength!"

After Taiyi finished speaking, he twisted and pulled his hand, snatching the giant axe from Fengsheng's hand with lightning speed. He grabbed the handle and casually swung it at the falling Fengsheng.

Boom boom boom!

Feng Sheng flew horizontally, crashing through the air and creating rings of white energy. Then, with a loud bang, he crashed into the mountainside, his fate unknown.

"Is this the identity you're so proud of?"

"A demigod? Too weak!"

Taiyi shook his head and casually threw away the giant axe.

Such disdain enraged many demigods who were initially shocked by his strength.

"Stop your arrogance!"

"I, Muqing, will fight you!"

A man wearing blue rattan armor roared and charged out.

Mu Heng's gaze sharpened slightly. This was his son, and the most outstanding one at that.

Although Taiyi has demonstrated great strength, he has not yet surpassed the realm of demigods and reached the level of a god. Therefore, Mu Qing has a chance to win.

Among the many demigods of Camel Peak Mountain, his son Mu Qing was the most powerful.

Taiyi also sensed Muqing's powerful aura.

Wherever this person went, the grass and trees swayed.

As he climbed the mountain, the vegetation on the entire mountaintop immediately began to grow wildly, driven by him.

The grass is like a sword, the trees like giants, and the vines like a python.

At that moment, enemies were everywhere, and in the blink of an eye, Taiyi was swallowed up by grass and trees.

"good!"

"I knew it! He was bound to lose the moment Mu Qing made his move!"

"Indeed, this person is far too arrogant. Hmph, doesn't he know there are always people more powerful than him!"

……

The many demigods cheered with joy.

However, Mu Qing himself showed no sign of pride.

He stood halfway up the mountain, surrounded by lush vegetation that lifted him high, making him level with the mountain peak.

Suddenly, a hissing sound rang out.

Mu Qing's pupils dilated as he saw the vegetation that had been continuously shrinking around Taiyi suddenly explode, forming countless wood chips.

Standing atop the mountain, Taiyi opened his mouth and unleashed a torrent of flames that ignited the wood chips, creating a sea of ​​fire that served as a protective barrier.

"As expected, he wasn't that easy to defeat!"

Mu Qing hummed softly, and with a thought, the vines intertwined, like giant pythons whipping the air with crackling sounds, tearing through the sea of ​​fire, and lashing down on Taiyi from different directions.

Then, a giant tree-man, several dozen feet tall, formed its branches and leaves, which entwined and solidified like long spears, piercing through the wall of fire and stabbing down towards Taiyi.

This attack was a pre-emptive strike by Mu Qing, and there was no way to avoid it except to meet it head-on.

So what if someone has a greater strength than Feng Sheng?

So what if it has sharp sword energy?

Can it withstand such an attack?

Mu Qing looked at Taiyi Clan on the mountaintop and sneered inwardly.

But at that moment, a loud splashing sound was heard.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that the water around Taiyi on the mountaintop was surging and growing, growing larger and larger in an instant, like a raging torrent, surging outwards.

"Water-based techniques cannot withstand my divine power!"

Mu Qing laughed loudly.

However, Mu Heng and Liu Jia at the foot of the mountain had a slight change in expression.

That's not a water-based magic technique!

In an instant, the tree vines, like giant pythons, lashed against the surging waves, and the tree-man's arm and spear collided with the water curtain.

But instead of the loud noise Mu Qing had predicted, the vines and the tree-man's arm silently turned to dust upon impact.

"How is that possible?"

Mu Qing found it hard to believe. How could the Water Element Technique achieve such a level of skill?

At the mountaintop, Taiyi suddenly had a thought, and the water that was swirling around him suddenly split into many streams, pouring outwards like great rivers. Wherever they passed, grass, trees, and rocks turned to dust.

This is certainly not some kind of water-based magic.

It's sword energy!

Sword energy is like water, gathering to form a river.

At this moment, the sword energy flowed like a river, vast and mighty, instantly washing away the tree-man and vine python controlled by Mu Qing, turning them into dust.

Then, with a light step, Taiyi swooped down from the mountaintop towards Muqing like an eagle.

Mu Qing's expression changed, and he immediately fell down. Meanwhile, the vegetation around him grew wildly and surged toward Tai Yi, who was pouncing down.

However, with wisps of sword energy swirling around him, any grass or trees that approached him would be torn to pieces, making him completely defenseless.

The two landed on the mountainside one after the other, and Mu Qing used all her strength, employing all sorts of methods.

Grass swords, tree men, vine snakes, and giant pythons launched a continuous barrage of attacks, yet none could stop Taiyi's advance.

Mu Qing jumped around frantically, but was defeated step by step.

"You're the strongest demigod of Camelhump Mountain?"

"Too weak!"

"I haven't even used half of my strength yet!"

Amidst the lush vegetation, Taiyi strolled leisurely towards Mu Qing, hands behind his back, and said calmly, "Anyone else who wants to fight, come at me all at once!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Qing was so angry that his chest almost exploded. He roared repeatedly, wanting to counterattack, but was nearly torn to pieces by Tai Yi's sword energy.

Down the mountain, the sound of the trees echoed.

Immediately, shouts rang out.

More than twenty demigods charged out simultaneously, leaping and flying like the wind, attacking Taiyi from different directions.

Liu Jia couldn't help but chuckle, secretly transmitting his thoughts: "Fellow Daoist Mu, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by other Daoists if word gets out?"

Mu Heng scoffed, "What's a joke?"

"Is it as precious as that divine sword?"

You're just jealous that you don't have that opportunity!

Mu Heng sneered inwardly.

Liu Jia was speechless for a moment, but then smiled and said, "However, Fellow Daoist Taiyi probably won't lose!"

"Not to mention his sharp Taoist skills, his abundant essence is also rare among demigods. You can't defeat him by sheer numbers."

Mu Heng remained silent. He had only reached the True God realm before the sixth level of cultivation, so how could he not see it?

But even if there's only a sliver of a chance, we should seize it, since we've already taken action.

As for losing, so what?

Although it enhanced Taiyi's reputation, it did not cause him much harm.

Perhaps Taiyi should even thank him for making things happen!

On the mountain.

As Rokuga said, numbers cannot change the course of the battle.

Taiyi, however, changed from his previous leisurely pace to a more expansive and powerful style. He was surrounded by five rings of divine light, and with every move he made, he could split mountains and shatter rocks. Moreover, his sword energy crisscrossed, making him invincible.

Someone is hiding inside the mountain, concealing their presence, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

But Taiyi seemed to have sensed it beforehand. He stomped his foot, causing the mountain beneath him to collapse, and screams of agony rang out.

Someone attacked him from behind, but as if he had eyes in the back of his head, he turned around and casually threw a punch, smashing the enemy's head into his chest.

Swordsmanship, Five Dragons Daoist Arts, Mighty Strength, Immobilization Technique, Sprout Technique... He could conjure up one Daoist art after another with ease, and what supported the astonishing power of these Daoist arts was his seemingly inexhaustible vast essence.

Even when facing more than twenty powerful demigods, he still seemed to be handling them with ease.

In a short time, they defeated Mu Qing and his men, causing heavy casualties.

Mu Heng's eyes twitched. Seeing his son and daughter dead, and his most beloved son Mu Qing severely injured and nearly killed, his face turned ashen. He hurriedly shouted, "Fellow Daoist Taiyi, stop!"

Taiyi stopped.

The once lush mountain is now completely bare, riddled with potholes and huge cracks, as if the entire mountain would collapse at the slightest pressure.

Of those demigods, fewer than ten were still able to stand.

The rest were either dead or seriously injured.

At this moment, whether it was the demigods standing like Mu Qing or the demigods lying on the ground, their gazes toward Tai Yi were filled with fear and awe.

Looking into the eyes of these demigods, Taiyi was certain that this was the correct way to experience the primordial world!

Meanwhile, the humans watching the battle in the human tribes stared wide-eyed, excited, and some even had tears in their eyes.

So... humans can be this powerful!

Donning his robes and descending the mountain, Taiyi reached out and grasped the Heavenly Golden Sky-Splitting Divine Sword. He then said to Liujia, "Fellow Daoist Liujia, why don't we go and visit the other fellow Daoists?"

Liu Jia was shocked. "Is this guy going to smash through the entire Longmen Mountain Range?"

But then he was delighted, since he wasn't the one who would suffer and lose face, and the Taiyi family certainly wouldn't challenge him to a duel on his territory.

"Of course I'm willing!"

Liu Jia laughed heartily, then returned the divine talisman to Tai Yi Shi. He then raised an eyebrow and winked at Mu Heng, a thought suddenly occurring to him. He said, "Fellow Daoist Mu Heng, why don't you accompany the Left Envoy to visit the other fellow Daoists?"

"If you embarrass yourself, but make others embarrass themselves too, then it's not really embarrassing!"

Liu Jia secretly transmitted his voice.

Mu Heng was taken aback; it seemed to make some sense.
