Chapter 1403 Slaughtering Gods and Demons Emerge
Why didn't Xiao Sheng examine that familiar power? Did he lower his guard? No, it wasn't that Xiao Sheng let his guard down. Throughout this immeasurable calamity, he had maintained a vigilant attitude. He knew that even a small oversight could cost him his life. The only power that could be familiar to him, and that he couldn't recall immediately, was the Chaos God and Demon. Against such an enemy, trying to investigate everything about him in such an environment was impossible and would only be a waste of his precious time.

This is an immeasurable calamity, a time when even one's life is in danger. Only a fool would risk such a futile endeavor. Regardless of the source of that familiar power or the other party's schemes, Xiao Sheng believes that ultimately, life and death will be decided by strength. In the final stage of this immeasurable calamity, the contest will not be about stances, but about true strength. Strength is paramount and the foundation of everything. Without strength, there is only death—that is reality!
Time was far more precious to Xiao Sheng than any of the Chaos Gods and Demons; he understood its importance in this immeasurable calamity even better than the Chaos Gods and Demons themselves. However, Xiao Sheng had no way to influence the course of events, as even the slightest misstep could threaten his life. When the Cursed Gods and Demons unleashed their madness, the entire Primordial World descended into utter chaos and frenzy. Whether it was the Primordial Great Dao or the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons, they all went mad, fighting for their lives!
Xiao Sheng, who was also caught in the midst of this calamity, was also threatened with death and had to face this life-or-death crisis. It was precisely because he understood all this that Xiao Sheng did not want to waste his precious time and energy!
Just as Xiao Sheng was still sighing faintly, a voice suddenly rang out in his primordial spirit. It was the voice of the Dark King: "My lord, the obsession of the Great God Pangu has become too volatile. He is grasping the origin of the primordial world. He wants to reclaim the power over the primordial world. What should we do?"

When that voice rang out, Xiao Sheng's brows furrowed even more. This was something he hadn't expected. He hadn't anticipated that Pangu would finally intervene under these circumstances, finally entering the game. In many people's eyes, Taiyi, evolved from Pangu's obsession, was an independent life form, unaffected by Pangu. But in Xiao Sheng's view, things weren't so simple. Taiyi was a part of Pangu. Even if Pangu severed cause and effect, the essence of life wouldn't change. It could only be said that this was a way out Pangu had left for himself.

"Well done, Pangu! It seems he's finally reached his limit. If the primordial world were to be destroyed at this moment, and all living beings perished, the boundless karma would turn against him. We don't need to worry about danger because we've severed all karma, but the karma between Pangu and the three thousand chaotic gods and demons isn't so easily severed. You've forgotten an important point: they created this primordial world themselves. If it's destroyed, and all living beings perish, won't they suffer a backlash?"

Xiao Sheng shook his head. This was an inevitable outcome; otherwise, the Great God Pangu wouldn't have taken action, wouldn't have sent Taiyi to stabilize the prehistoric world. When the Three Pure Ones intervened, Xiao Sheng had already considered this problem. Under such circumstances, Pangu couldn't possibly watch the prehistoric world and all living beings perish. The consequences would be dire, and perhaps once the prehistoric world was destroyed, Pangu's backup plan, Taiyi, would perish!
"Pangu was afraid, so he had to let Taiyi take action to stabilize the situation in the prehistoric world and prevent it from heading towards destruction? But isn't he being too crazy? This is not a good thing for him. As long as Taiyi takes action, he will bear huge karma and may even face pressure from all living beings in the prehistoric world?"

The Dark King found this hard to accept. He was well aware of the immense impact this situation would have on Pangu and the terrifying shock it would cause to all living beings in the primordial world. But everything was happening, and even if he didn't want to accept it, the facts were the facts and could not be changed. Even if the Dark King couldn't accept it, everything was already set in stone!

"Not only is Pangu afraid, but the Great Dao of the Primordial World is also uneasy, and even the Great Dao of Chaos is unwilling to see such a situation occur. Do you think the existence of the Primordial World only affects Pangu and the Great Dao of the Primordial World? No, it affects all living beings in the world and the Great Dao of Chaos. If the Primordial World is destroyed, how can Pangu and the Great Dao of the Primordial World learn from its evolution? The Great Dao of Chaos is no exception. When this Primordial World was born, it was already very important to the Great Dao of Chaos; it was the best model to learn from. Therefore, no one wants to see the Primordial World headed for destruction!"

At this moment, both the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoist sighed, understanding Xiao Sheng's current feelings and realizing that what was happening before them was not as simple as they had initially thought. Given the current situation, how could the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons be unaware of their predicament, or the powerful Boiling Yuan Daluo Golden Immortal born from a Chaos Beast not understand what was happening? They were all perfectly clear about the situation, but deep down they clung to a sliver of hope, even believing that they wouldn't be the ones to suffer!

What the beings of the primordial world thought was not Xiao Sheng's concern, but the environmental concerns they faced did put considerable pressure on him. If the primordial world were to fall into crisis at this time, or even face a backlash from the world's origin, then even the Great Luo Golden Immortals and Chaos Gods and Demons would likely face a catastrophe. They would all be confronted with a more terrifying threat, and they would all be affected and schemed against!

"Then how should we deal with this?" The Dark King asked Xiao Sheng again, a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Respond? Do you think we need to respond to all of this? What does all this have to do with us? We don't need to care about any of this. After all, we don't need to face this kind of pressure. Now that Pangu has made his move, how long do you think it will be before the great battle? Instead of wasting time on those trivial matters, we should focus our energy on our own cultivation. Strength is the foundation of everything. Don't worry about changes in the outside world. Your most important task is to plunder the source to strengthen yourselves. Only with strength can you survive!"

With the wisdom of the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoist, how could they not understand the importance of strength? But knowing it was one thing, but he had no control over everything. And while the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoist were worried, and while Xiao Sheng himself had a little bit of realization, he couldn't help but sigh. Everything was developing in a direction that was unfavorable to him.

Before the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoist could advance any further, reality became so perilous that even he himself, if not for his injuries, would likely be dead! Faced with the great calamity of heaven and earth, Xiao Sheng could only feel that he was also one of the 'ants', and had to face the suppression from the Primordial Great Dao!
"Die!" Just as the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoist were somewhat puzzled and unable to understand, a sense of crisis surged into their hearts. An enemy had attacked them, and it all happened so suddenly that before they could react, Xiao Sheng and the Dark King were both threatened with death.

"Damn it, it's the God-Slaying Arrow!" Sensing the imminent danger, Xiao Sheng sighed. He sensed the source of the attack's power—the aura of death, the most destructive force. But understanding it was useless. Even if Xiao Sheng wanted to do something, it was too late. This momentary lapse in attention had plunged him into crisis!

"Yes, this is the sneak attack of the God-Slaying Arrow. Xiao Sheng is very familiar with the God-Slaying Arrow. I thought I needed to be more vigilant against external threats, but I didn't expect the danger to come so suddenly, and everything to happen so frighteningly!" "I understand now, this is the power of the God of Slaughter. No wonder everything happened so suddenly, and no wonder everything is so crazy. The God of Slaughter is hiding much deeper. He thinks he can use this little bit of power to scheme against us? He's overthinking it!" When the Dark King discovered all this, he couldn't help but feel worried!

In fact, it wasn't just Xiao Sheng and the Dark King who were attacked at this moment; there were also many more Chaos Gods and Demons. After all, the Killing God and Demon didn't want to conceal the secrets of heaven, and he could completely withstand these guys' sneak attacks and ambushes.

"Slaughter? You think you can kill me with this little power? You're too naive. You really think I haven't discovered anything? You're far too naive and arrogant. Even the cursed gods and demons were forced to self-destruct. What are you? Seal me!"

With Xiao Sheng's deep shout, the origin of the primordial world was stirred, and rays of light bloomed wildly, with their influence on the primordial world becoming increasingly intense. Under such intense circumstances, many people would be affected!

"Heh, of course I know I can't kill you, but you're too naive and too arrogant. Do you think I haven't thought of all this? It's as if you've forgotten everything from back then. Fine, let me awaken you then. Unleash the power of god-slaying!"

As the voice of slaughtering gods and demons rang out, terrifying power was gathering in Xiao Sheng's hands. It was the power of the Great Dao of Life. However, as Xiao Sheng gathered his power, the enemy's scheme also erupted, and the power in his body was dissipating!
"God-slaying power, so this is why you frantically tested my backup plan back then! Gather the Great Dao of Life, annihilate me!" Xiao Sheng unleashed the god-slaying power within himself—the power of the Chaos Gods and Demons, this was his scheme!

"What a Xiao Sheng! What a killing god and demon! No wonder this guy is as steady as an old dog. He's so stupid that he would choose to launch a fatal counterattack under these circumstances!" The God and Demon of Destiny sighed, dissatisfied with the current state of the prehistoric world.

"Damn it, that madman Xiao Sheng actually suppressed my power!" In an instant, the Slaughtering Demon God sensed the changes in the天地元气 (heaven and earth energy), but unfortunately, his knowledge was limited. The power of slaughter was suppressed by Xiao Sheng with a single move, demonstrating the brutality of the current situation and the terrifying power of those three thousand Chaos Demon Gods!
"It's that guy, Slaughter. This guy can actually draw upon the God-Slaying Power within the God-Slaying Arrow. It seems our initial thought was correct. Now we realize that escaping won't be easy; it requires cause and effect!" The God of Destiny sighed softly, a faint trace of disappointment flickering in his eyes. After all, the God of Slaughter had drawn upon the God-Slaying Power within Xiao Sheng's body, and the fact that this could happen was enough to show that there was a problem back then!
"Yes, our guess back then was right. The God-Slaying Arrows were deliberately released by that guy, but he didn't expect that the power of so many God-Slaying Arrows would remain in Xiao Sheng's body without delivering a fatal blow, and instead give Xiao Sheng such terrifying power. We can only say that everyone was wrong, and very wrong at that!"

"Using someone else to do the dirty work, I never imagined that this guy, Slaughter, would be so ruthless, even more vicious than before. We weren't prepared at all, and could only watch helplessly as everything unfolded. I wonder how many backup plans he had prepared back then. It's a pity he still failed. He shouldn't have targeted Xiao Sheng, shouldn't have focused on Xiao Sheng's Dao of Life Source. If he's like this, and the Cursed Gods and Demons are like this, how many more like him are there among the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons!" At this moment, Hongjun Dao Ancestor of the Creation God and Demon let out a sigh of relief. Under such circumstances, he was also under immense pressure!

"Yes, we all underestimated the God-Slaying Demon. How many God-Slaying Arrows have circulated throughout the entire Primordial World, and how many still exist? The changes in Xiao Sheng are the best proof of that. His God-Slaying Power has been obliterated by the Origin of the Great Dao of Life. Who knows what will happen next? Those fellow Daoists hiding in the shadows are probably already getting restless, after all, no one wants to see this happen!"

Yes, from this moment on, all three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons frowned, staring intently at the void, waiting for the outcome. After all, this battle was no simple matter, and it was perfectly normal for someone to want to cause trouble under such circumstances. However, no one knew when these guys would make their move or what changes would occur in this great battle. Everything was too dark!

If more chaotic beasts and powerful beings were to become involved this time, the entire world's situation would fundamentally change. Unfortunately, no one dared to intervene easily. After all, wise people understood that at this point, without the machinations of an enemy, no one knew what the outcome would be. Even the Demon God of Slaughter had his own contingency plans, and the God-Slaying Arrow was part of his scheme. But would knowing this be of any use? Everything would change; could everything be changed? Difficult, extremely difficult!
