Deep within the Tushita Palace!
It was not the alchemy room or treasure pavilion one might imagine, but a secluded and ancient palace.

Outside the palace.

Layer upon layer of restrictive runes flowed endlessly, emanating an aura that even quasi-saints would find unsettling, completely isolating this place from the outside world.

"Daoyou, please."

Xuandu led the way without explaining the restrictions further.

"it is good."

Zhao Feng smiled and followed Xuan Du, step by step, into the palace.

The hall was extremely empty, except for a huge and complex array engraved on the ground in the center.

Every line of the formation contains the ultimate principles of space, and countless profound runes are engraved on it, seemingly leading to another unknown space.

While walking.

Xuan Du stepped aside and explained, "This is a teleportation array leading to Xuan Du City in the Outer Heavens."

Zhao Feng was also very curious about the Outer Heaven.

He had heard Laozi and Xuandu mention this place several times; it was the first line of defense against the extraterrestrial demons, but he had never actually seen it.

Xuandu gestured for them to enter, and the two of them walked into the center of the teleportation array, one after the other.

hum!
As Xuandu made a hand seal, the entire formation instantly lit up, and the blinding white light engulfed everything.

Zhao Feng felt a tightness all over his body as a powerful spatial force enveloped him.

The light dissipated.

The two of them found themselves in a gray, chaotic area.

There is no heaven and earth, no sun and moon, no spiritual energy, only endless, violent chaotic energy surging and raging.

According to Xuandu, this place is already on the edge of the primordial world.

In this chaos, a colossal city, like an ancient behemoth, floats silently.

The city walls stood tall, shimmering with the profound light of Taoism. An extremely pure Taoist aura permeated the city, forming an indestructible barrier that completely blocked the raging chaotic energy.

“Fellow Daoist, that is Xuandu City, which is guarded by the disciples of my Human Sect,” Xuandu said, pointing ahead.

Zhao Feng looked in the direction he was pointing.

Dozens of dark cracks appeared in the sky above Xuandu City, like scars on the heavens.

Deeper into the cracks lies an even deeper darkness, from which endless chaotic energy seeps out.

What's even more shocking is that.

Every now and then, streams of intangible black energy would burst forth from the cracks, frantically crashing against the protective barrier of Xuandu City.

Each impact caused ripples to spread across the light screen.

Xuan Du solemnly explained to Zhao Feng, "Those are extraterrestrial demons. They can erode a cultivator's primordial spirit and seize their body; they are incredibly strange and impossible to guard against!"

Zhao Feng nodded and asked curiously, "Fellow Daoist, what exactly is this extraterrestrial demon?"

He could sense that these celestial demons were completely different from any other living beings in the primordial world.

Xuandu said in a deep voice, "When it comes to 'demon,' the first thing that comes to mind for all living beings in the prehistoric world is the former Demon Ancestor Rahu."

"In the battle between the Dao and the Demon, although Rahu was defeated, he did not truly perish. Instead, he transformed himself into a demon and became omnipresent."

“However,” Xuandu changed the subject, becoming serious, “these celestial demons are different from the demons transformed from Rahu.”

Xuan didn't give a direct answer, but looked at Zhao Feng and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, you are very powerful. Why don't you investigate for yourself?"

Zhao Feng understood Xuan Du's meaning.

Some things are better seen than heard about.

"In that case, I'll see what kind of evil spirit this is."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Feng had already made his move.

immediately.

Zhao Feng raised his right hand and gently grasped a black current of energy that was impacting the barrier of Xuandu City in the distant void.

hum!
An invisible force of vital energy traversed endless space and instantly appeared around the black aura, transforming into an invisible cage that firmly imprisoned it.

The whole process went smoothly.

The captured extraterrestrial demon instantly sensed a deadly threat and began to struggle frantically.

"Roar!"

An invisible roar exploded directly in Zhao Feng's primordial spirit sea of ​​consciousness.

Followed by.

Endless illusions surged toward him.

He possesses supreme power, earth-shattering strength, the allure of immortality, and the tenderness of three thousand beauties…

These are the deepest desires in the hearts of living beings, and the weapons that the Heavenly Demon is most adept at using.

Unfortunately, it chose the wrong target.

Zhao Feng's will, tempered by the laws of humanity and destiny, had long been as firm as divine iron, indestructible through countless tribulations.

These illusions didn't even stir the slightest ripple in his heart before shattering like reflections in a mirror or the moon in the water.

"Little tricks."

Zhao Feng snorted coldly, and his divine sense ruthlessly pierced into the core of this Heavenly Demon's origin.

The origin of the Heavenly Demon is a pure, chaotic mass of energy filled with destructive and devouring desires.

Zhao Feng's divine sense traveled through it, carefully sensing every single component.

After a while.

Zhao Feng withdrew his divine sense. The original core of the imprisoned Heavenly Demon had been completely exposed, and it had lost all its power, turning into a wisp of green smoke and dissipating.

Zhao Feng's expression was solemn. He turned to look at Xuan Du, his voice filled with surprise: "The origin of this thing does not belong to the primordial world."

"What you say is correct, fellow Daoist."

Xuan Du nodded, pointed to the dark cracks in the void, and slowly said, "These cracks appeared right after the Great Tribulation of the Gods ended."

"At that time, the primordial world was in turmoil, and the rules of heaven were unstable, which caused these openings to be torn open at the edge of chaos, connecting to the world outside the primordial world."

"At present, the barriers of the primordial world are still stable, and only these incorporeal demons can pass through."

"But the strength of this barrier is closely related to the origin of the primordial world."

"If the primordial origin continues to weaken, the world's barriers will also thin. At that time, it is unknown whether true beings from other worlds will descend upon the primordial world."

After hearing Xuan Du's words, Zhao Feng instantly connected all the clues.

The great calamity of the Journey to the West is upon us, and the aura of calamity envelops the heavens and earth.

Haotian has returned, wielding the power of a sage.

Buddhism, Heaven, demons...

The entire primordial world was engulfed in battle, and countless lives were being lost.

The fall of living beings replenishes the power of Heaven, strengthening Hongjun, who governs Heaven.

However, the massive death of living beings will inevitably deplete the very essence of the entire primordial world!

An incredibly terrifying thought arose in Zhao Feng's mind.

"Hongjun..."

perhaps.

Hongjun unleashed this great calamity, causing the demise of all living beings, perhaps to strengthen himself as well.

His true purpose was to weaken the world's barriers by consuming the very essence of the primordial world!

When the primordial essence is depleted to a certain extent, the barriers between worlds will become as thin as a cicada's wing. At that time, countless powerful beings from other worlds will flood into the primordial world like locusts.

When that time comes, what role will Hongjun, as the "guardian" of the primordial world, play?
Is it to unite with other worlds and completely destroy the world created by Pangu?

Or will he use this as leverage to force all living beings in the primordial world to completely submit to his Heavenly Dao?

Either way, it would be a catastrophe for the primordial world!
This scheme is far too grand.

It was so vast that it treated the entire primordial world and countless living beings as a chessboard and chess pieces.

"What a magnificent Hongjun! What a magnificent Dao Ancestor!"

Zhao Feng finally understood just how terrifying an opponent he was facing.

He finally understood why Lao Tzu had sent him to this place.

Only by witnessing this otherworldly realm with one's own eyes and personally experiencing the threat from this alien world can one truly understand the viciousness and terror of Hongjun's schemes.

At this moment, Xuandu suddenly bowed deeply to Zhao Feng: "Fellow Daoist, now you have seen it."

"This place is the first and last line of defense in the primordial world."

"Although my master is a saint, he is still subject to the constraints of the Heavenly Dao and cannot personally intervene for long periods of time. Although my Human Sect has many disciples, they are still a drop in the ocean when facing this endless array of Heavenly Demons."

“This protective barrier is constantly draining the fortune of our Human Sect and the magical power of our disciples.”

"In the future, the unification of the prehistoric world by the Great Qin is an inevitable trend, and humanity will surely flourish."

"I humbly request that you, my fellow Daoist, also shoulder the responsibility of protecting the primordial world and sheltering all living beings in this world in the future."

Done.

Xuandu bowed deeply to Zhao Feng again.

Zhao Feng quickly raised his hand to help Xuan Duxu up: "Fellow Daoist, please rise. Protecting the primordial world is simply humanity's duty."

"Once the Great Qin Dynasty has pacified the world, it will send an elite army to this place to guard this outer heaven together with the disciples of the Human Sect!"

Upon hearing this promise, Xuan Du's tense face finally broke into a smile.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

Xuan didn't offer many pleasantries. With a flick of his wrist, a miniature array platform, about the size of a palm and made entirely of space crystals, appeared in his hand. He introduced it, saying, "This is a portable teleportation array. Fellow Daoist, you can take it back to the Great Qin and set it up anywhere you like."

“In the future, fellow Daoist will be able to use this formation to travel between the Primordial World and Xuandu City at any time without having to go through the Doushuai Palace.”

Upon seeing this treasure, Zhao Feng was shocked.

This is not just a teleportation array; it represents Laozi's absolute trust in the Qin Dynasty!

Zhao Feng didn't stand on ceremony, reached out and took the array platform, and nodded, saying, "Okay."

And just then!
A sudden change occurred!

In this desolate land filled only with chaos and demonic energy, a sacred, vast aura, completely different from the demonic energy that permeated the land, suddenly appeared.

This aura was completely different from that of the extraterrestrial demons, and it did not belong to the primordial world.

This... is a group of newly emerged auras!
The moment this aura appeared, Zhao Feng and Xuan Du's gazes were simultaneously drawn to it.

"Hmm?" Xuan Du frowned, surprised, and asked, "What... kind of power is this?"

He had guarded the outer heavens for countless eons, and had only ever seen endless extraterrestrial demons. This was the first time he had sensed an existence other than demonic energy.

Zhao Feng didn't speak, but simply stared quietly in the direction where the light was shining.

Do not know why.

This so-called "sacred" aura felt familiar to him.

next moment.

Under the watchful eyes of the two.

From the void passage torn apart by dark cracks, a figure slowly emerged.

That's a man.

He was dressed in a flawless, close-fitting white battle armor, which was engraved with intricate and sacred patterns.

What's most eye-catching are the twelve pairs, a total of twenty-four huge white wings on his back!

With a gentle flap of its wings, holy light shone down.

It actually purified all the violent chaotic air currents around it.

He held a holy sword with a cross burning with white flames, his face was handsome, and his expression was arrogant.

I saw this figure.

Xuan Du was completely stunned.

It has a physical body?
They are not ethereal energy entities like demons, but living beings with real flesh and blood!

"alert!"

Almost simultaneously with the appearance of this creature, urgent alarm bells rang within the Xuandu City, which was suspended in chaos.

On the city wall, countless cultivators of the Human Sect appeared, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Several streaks of light shot into the sky from the city, transforming into several Great Luo Golden Immortals dressed in Taoist robes. They instantly ascended into the air and surrounded the twelve-winged man.

They were very cautious.

Being able to cross realms using only flesh and blood, this unfamiliar being's strength is probably even greater than that of the extraterrestrial demons!
"Take him down, alive."

Xuan Du regained his senses and immediately gave orders to the powerful figures in the city.

In his view, although the intruder had a powerful aura, his cultivation level seemed to be only at the initial stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and he was not worth fearing.

After giving the order, Xuandu turned to Zhao Feng and said, "Fellow Daoist, this is the first time a being with a physical body has come through the passage. This being seems to have been nurtured by light, and its aura is pure, yet it is not a being from our primordial world. I wonder what its origin is."

However, Zhao Feng showed no surprise whatsoever, calmly uttering only two words, "Angel."

Angel?

Upon hearing these two words, Xuandu was slightly taken aback.

Is this the imperial messenger who delivers the imperial edict to the Heavenly Emperor?
But the aura of this being before them was completely different from that of the celestial gods and immortals of the Heavenly Court; it seemed more like some kind of alien deity.

He looked at Zhao Feng curiously, about to ask more questions, but Zhao Feng just smiled calmly and didn't seem to want to explain.

Although Xuandu had doubts in his heart, he wisely refrained from asking any further questions.

He realized that the secrets surrounding this Crown Prince of Qin were far more numerous than he had imagined.

at this time.

Outside Xuandu City, in the midst of chaos.

The twelve-winged angel, surrounded by several Great Luo Golden Immortals, showed no sign of panic.

He arrogantly surveyed the Taoist monks in their robes around him, his eyes filled with contempt and disdain, as if looking at a group of uncivilized natives. "In the name of my Lord, I, the Archangel Uriel, have come to purify this sinful land shrouded in darkness!"

He raised the Fiery Holy Sword high in his hand, his voice booming, but he used a strange language that was not commonly used in the primordial world.

But for a Great Luo Golden Immortal...

Language is no longer a barrier.

They could easily understand the meaning behind the angel's words.

One of the Great Luo Immortals of the Human Sect, his anger blazing, roared, "Insolence! What kind of monster dares to spout such nonsense here!"

He was about to take action immediately.

"Wait!" The leading Taoist priest raised his hand to stop him, and asked the angel in a cold voice, "Who is your master? This is the primordial world, what does it have to do with you?"

"My Lord is the one true God who created heaven and earth and holds the power of light!" Uriel exclaimed fanatically. "You false gods who have stolen the power of the world will soon face my Lord's judgment!"

"The glory of God will surely shine upon this world, and all heresies will be reduced to ashes in the holy fire!"

Without another word, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes, and he shouted, "Attack!"
