The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

The demon, like an immortal, successfully transcended his tribulation and joined the ranks of those who broke through barriers.

To express their gratitude for the protection of these people, the Demon Emperor's Palace held a grand banquet and invited guests from all directions.

The banquet was filled with distinguished guests, who chatted and laughed, enjoying themselves immensely.

After the banquet ended, Emperor Xuanyuan found Zheng Tuo, the Immortal Slayer.

"Is something wrong?"

Zheng Tuo understood that Emperor Xuanyuan wouldn't approach him without a reason.

"You know about the alliance between Undying Mountain and the Dark Temple."

"Yes, it was within my expectations that the two enemies would join forces."

Zheng Tuo felt considerable pressure about this.

The Undying Mountain was easy to deal with, as he knew its ins and outs, but he knew nothing about the Dark Temple.

It can be said.

Since he set foot in the Primordial Immortal Realm, he has sent people to investigate the Dark Temple, but so far they have found nothing.

The Dark Temple is like a hidden abyss, and no one but the Dark Temple itself can know what lies within it.

"What's wrong? Did they mess with you?"

Zheng Tuo couldn't help but look at Di Xuanyuan.

It seems that Emperor Xuanyuan's Imperial Clan has no enmity with these two forces.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to remind you to be careful."

After Emperor Xuanyuan finished speaking, he got up and left.

Watching Di Xuanyuan leave, Zheng Tuo felt that the guy had something to say, but didn't say it.

Forget it.

Emperor Xuanyuan is no ordinary person; when he wants to speak to me, he will naturally speak to me.

Now that they don't want to talk about it, even if I ask, they won't tell me.

"Brother Shixian, thank you very much."

Yao Ruxian walked gracefully to Zheng Tuo's side.

At this moment, Yao Ruxian's appearance was beautiful, like a blooming flower, and her whole body exuded a pink and fragrant aura.

Looking at her, so enchanting and otherworldly, Zheng Tu remained calm and composed, and was not tempted.

“I say, Fellow Daoist Ruxian, you are being unseemly.”

"Brother Shixian, why do you say such a thing?"

“I helped you through your tribulation, and even invited friends to help. I deserve credit for my efforts, so why are you attacking me now, trying to seduce me and force me to submit? That’s so rude.”

Zheng Tuo was quite helpless.

The allure that the demon, like a fairy, silently used was truly terrifying.

If he hadn't seen this technique before and been on guard, he might have fallen for it suddenly and been tempted by the demon, Ruxian, to do something improper.

"Brother Shixian, you flatter me. I have just broken through to the next level and am having difficulty controlling my power. I have offended you and hope you will forgive me."

Yao Ruxian bowed slightly, appearing quite polite.

Zheng Tuo did not continue to discuss the matter.

"Fellow Daoist Ruxian, now that you have successfully broken through, I have fulfilled my promise and will take my leave now."

Zheng Tuo clasped his hands in a fist salute, preparing to leave.

"Wait a moment."

Yao Ruxian stopped Zheng Tuo.

"Is something wrong?"

"Brother Shixian, you have helped me a lot this time, and I should thank you."

Thank me?
One of Zheng Tuo's purposes in agreeing to help Yao Ruxian was to establish a friendly relationship with her.

Look back.

When one encounters danger, one needs the help of a fairy.

Especially now that the Dark Temple and the Undying Mountain have joined forces, he needs help even more.

"I have already made it clear to Fellow Daoist Ruxian what I need. As for other thanks, there is no need, I have nothing to lack."

Zheng Tuo did not seek the other party's kindness again.

Seeing Zheng Tuo's words, Yao Ruxian steadied herself and continued, "I understand Brother Shixian's intentions. Please rest assured, if Brother Shixian is in trouble, I, Yao Ruxian, will certainly do my duty without hesitation, however..."

"What do you mean?"

"However, I still hope that Brother Shixian can do me a favor."

Looking at Yao Ruxian at this moment, Zheng Tuo already knew what the other party wanted his help with.

"It's not appropriate for me, an outsider, to interfere in your demon race's internal affairs."

"Brother Shixian, do you know that I invited you to help me unify the demon race?" Yao Ruxian was full of surprise!

“I am aware of the Fox Ancestor’s obsession. Since you have inherited the Fox Ancestor’s obsession, you will surely follow in the Fox Ancestor’s footsteps. Besides…”

Zheng Tuo suddenly had an idea.

He himself had inherited the legacy of the Demon Ancestor.

The Demon Ancestor's legacy includes a request for him to help take care of the demon race.

Now that I think about it, it seems I really should help Yao Ruxian.

"Brother Shixian, now that you know my intentions, would you be willing to help me unify the demon race?"

Yao Ruxian bowed deeply in gratitude, her sincere expression prompting Zheng Tuo to step forward and help her up.

Zheng Tuo thought about it carefully.

If he helps the demon race to unify, he can bring the entire demon race under his command and make them a force under his control.

This way.

This naturally adds to their strength when facing the Dark Temple and the Undying Mountain.

To know.

He inherited the legacy of the four celestial spirits, whose legacy included the responsibility of protecting the primordial immortal realm.

The Dark Evil Emperor has disrupted the entire Primordial Immortal Realm more than once, and I have a responsibility to eliminate the Dark Temple.

After much thought, you know what? He actually decided to cooperate with Yao Ruxian.

But?

He was not a demon; he was merely an outsider.

As an outsider, even if he obtained the inheritance of the Demon Ancestor, what reason would he have to participate?

It seemed that he had seen through Zheng Tuo's most fundamental hesitation.

“Brother Shixian, I have a way to allow you to participate as a human.”

After Yao Ruxian finished speaking, her pretty face flushed slightly. Her delicate appearance stirred Zheng Tuo's heart.

"what do you mean?"

"That's right, it is Brother Shixian who married me. In this way, given our relationship as husband and wife, it is only natural that we can participate in the internal affairs of my demon race."

"this!"

Zheng Tuo never expected this.

Yao Ruxian not only asked him to help unify the demon race, but also took a liking to him and planned to make him her subordinate.

Logically speaking.

The Demon Emperor's Palace was no match for him. He had the support of the Blade Sect, the Sword Sect, and dozens of Breakers as allies.

Such a terrifying force is far beyond what the Demon Emperor's Palace can compare to.

Looking at Yao Ruxian, who was practically wielding her abacus against his face, Zheng Tuo seemed to be deep in thought.

He didn't dislike Yao Ruxian, but he didn't like her either; they were just friends.

“Brother Shixian, I possess the inheritance of the Fox Ancestor, and so do you. We can cultivate together to accelerate our cultivation. Wouldn’t that be twice as effective with half the effort?”

Yao Ruxian desperately wanted to ensnare this powerful man, so that she would have the confidence to unify the demon race.

but.

The man in front of her didn't seem interested in her beauty.

Even though she was a nine-tailed fox spirit, the most alluring woman, she could not shake his heart.

“Fellow Daoist Ruxian, I have thought of another way.”

"any solution?"

Zheng Tuo raised his hand and flipped it over, revealing a delicate little pot in his hand.

"Demon Refining Pot!"

The Demon Refining Pot is the most precious treasure of the demon race, crafted by the demon ancestor using his own blood essence.

The moment this thing appeared, it was as if the Demon Ancestor himself had arrived.

"As long as I hold this pot, no matter who I am, I can manage the affairs of the demon race." Looking at the ancient and majestic Demon Refining Pot, Yao Ruxian's eyes were filled with disappointment.

She truly loved this Immortal-Slaying Brother.

What woman in the world wouldn't admire a peerless figure like Shi Xian, a man of extraordinary talent and brilliance?

Besides, she is a nine-tailed fairy fox.

Thinking about it, only a man like Brother Shixian is worthy of me.

pity.

The fact that the other party had no interest in her left her feeling somewhat frustrated.

But she quickly rallied, for she now had something more important to do: unify the entire demon race.

"Brother Shixian, since you are willing to help my demon race unify, what are your plans?"

"A plan?"

Zheng Tuo thought about it carefully.

"The demon race itself reveres strength above all else. To unify the current demon race, it would probably require an absolute powerhouse among the demon race to preside over it, preferably someone at the level of a fifth-level Breaker."

"Ancestor Bai Ze!"

The strongest among the demon race today is naturally Ancestor Bai Ze.

"Senior Bai Ze is strong enough, but he probably doesn't care whether the demon race is unified or not, much less step forward to unify the entire demon race."

Based on Zheng Tuo's understanding of Bai Ze, if Bai Ze wanted to, he would have made a move long ago, and wouldn't have waited until now.

"Without Ancestor Bai Ze taking action, there are no fifth-level demon race experts in the current Primordial Immortal Realm."

"Therefore, if you want to unify the entire demon race, relying solely on methods and wisdom is useless. The most crucial thing is only power. Only absolute power can make the demons submit and enable the entire demon race to achieve unification."

Yao Ruxian seemed to be pondering this.

She is very powerful now, a Breaker-level existence, and has a lifespan of ten thousand years.

But she suddenly realized that the stronger her cultivation became, the weaker she felt.

She was merely a first-level Breaker, so she couldn't do anything.

"Cultivate diligently. Only by constantly becoming stronger can you do what you want to do. As for unifying the demon race, there is no need to rush. Take it slowly. You have the inheritance of the Fox Ancestor, and your future is limitless. Once you reach a higher realm, you will only need to say a word, or even lift a finger, and the entire demon race will naturally submit to you."

Upon hearing this, Yao Ruxian indicated that she understood.

Zheng Tuo got up and left. Yao Ruxian watched Zheng Tuo leave, wondering when they would meet again.

Simply.

He caught up with Zheng Tuo, summoned his Dao Body, and left it within Zheng Tuo's Nine Cities of the Heavenly River. In this way, the two could stay in contact and communicate at any time.

In this regard.

Zheng Tuo did not object.

Yao Ruxian is a very important pawn in his game, and he has no objection to maintaining effective communication and promoting a better relationship between the two sides.

The matter of Yao Ruxian undergoing tribulation has come to a temporary end. For Zheng Tuo, although this matter is over, the impact it brought is enormous.

The alliance between the Dark Temple and the Undying Mountain filled him with anxiety.

He didn't know what these two forces were up to, and in such a fog of uncertainty, how could he not be worried?

No.

I cannot sit idly by and wait for my doom; I must make adequate preparations.

Can't help but.

He thought of his own chaotic form.

The Chaos Body's cultivation is now proceeding in an orderly manner.

His original intention was to let the Chaos Body refine the primordial Dao patterns, thereby breaking through his own limitations and reaching the level of a Breaker.

original.

He wanted the Chaos Entity to follow the path of a self-breaking entity.

But this road is too difficult.

Even though the Chaotic Body is considered the most unique physique in all of history, it is still extremely difficult to obtain.

Today, the primordial immortal realm appears peaceful on the surface, but in reality, undercurrents are surging.

Perhaps, at this time, the Chaos Body should complete its breakthrough and join the ranks of those who break through barriers.

The potential of chaotic entities is virtually limitless.

If the Chaos Body could join the ranks of the Breakers, it would be a great help to him.

Yes.

The Dark Temple and the Undying Mountain are currently plotting something, and it's believed they won't have time to interfere with the Chaos Body's breakthrough.

Look back.

If the Dark Temple and the Undying Mountain complete their conspiracy, he will no longer have time to allow his Chaos Body to break through.

Think of this.

He then arrived at the Ancient Land of True Immortals, where the Chaos Body was cultivating.

The Chaos Divine Array in the Ancient Land of True Immortals remains stable; this naturally formed Chaos Divine Array is a truly terrifying place.

now.

He descended to this place in the form of a wallbreaker, which made him even more aware of the terrifying and extraordinary nature of this divine array.

They descended upon it.

They found a house that looked extremely dilapidated.

Inside the house, Zheng Tuo, the Chaos Body, sat cross-legged, looking like a stone sculpture, devoid of any life.

Even if a powerful figure were to pass by this place, they would not know that this stone sculpture is actually a Chaos Body cultivating.

Zheng Tuo, now in his Chaotic Body form, has merged with the Chaotic God Array and become part of it.

He can use the power of the Chaos God Array to continuously help himself cultivate and improve his own power.

It can be said.

Zheng Tuo, now in his chaotic state, has long since reached the critical point where he can break through.

It only needs to refine the original Dao patterns to complete its own breakthrough and reach the realm of the Breaker.

In this regard.

Zheng Tuo hesitated greatly.

The Chaos Body is known as the strongest physique throughout history.

With such potential, he originally intended to pursue the path of a self-disruptor.

In his view, the original wall-breakers belong to someone else's path, and following someone else's path will eventually come to an end.

Those who break through their own barriers forge a new path for themselves, and walking their own path seems to have a longer and more sustainable future.

That's where his hesitation lies.

He once possessed the Chaos Mother Mud, thus cultivating a Chaos Body, but was eventually taken away by his own inner demons, embarking on the path of cultivation known as the Road of No Return.

now.

Having obtained the Chaos Body again by chance, should I let it follow the path of others?

He sat upright in front of the large stone in the house, pondering the matter.

He had already analyzed the pros and cons, but now he was hesitant and found it difficult to make a decision.

Everything is because we can't see the future clearly.

He seems to like being in control, as this gives him peace of mind.

but now.

He couldn't see his future clearly. Even though two of his Dao bodies had already broken through and reached the level of a Wall Breaker, he still felt it wasn't enough.

The reason, of course, is that he has seen even more powerful beings.

Senior Bai Ze, the Dark Evil Emperor, and the King of Hell are three genuine fifth-level wall-breakers.

That terrifying power filled him with despair; there was absolutely no chance of victory.

Even though he was confident that he would surpass these people in the future and become a more powerful being, he needed time, a very, very long time.

But he had a premonition that his time was running out.

Because it inherited the legacy of the Four Spirits of Heaven.

He could vaguely sense some fluctuations of the primordial heavenly Dao.

It was a reminder that a storm was brewing and he needed to be prepared.

After thinking for several days, he slowly got up.

In any case, the current Primordial Immortal Realm is the best time for a Chaos Body to break through.

Since this is the best time, we shouldn't miss it.

And he believes it.

Even if one follows in the footsteps of others, with the potential of a Chaos Body, one can eventually surpass predecessors and forge one's own path. (End of Chapter)
