Honghuang: The Golden Crow Emperor, starts by robbing the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 916 Sinful Monster
Meanwhile, in a small world far beyond the primordial heavens.

Ancestor Yangmei opened his eyes, a smile playing on his lips.

"That old codger Hongjun is probably going to be furious, just thinking about it makes me happy!"

The Space Demon God stood up and stepped into the deepest part of this world. In a short while, he found the two demon gods who were reconstructing their physical bodies—the Qiankun Demon God and the Yin-Yang Demon God!

The two sat cross-legged, and the Heavenly Ruler and the Yin-Yang Refining Furnace resonated with them, unleashing their power to help them fuse with their physical bodies!

Qiankun and Yinyang were both powerful Chaos Gods, but they were incredibly unlucky. They were tricked by the combined forces of the Primordial Heavenly Dao and Hongjun, resulting in the destruction of their physical bodies!

"Fellow Daoists," Ancestor Yangmei sighed and shook his head, then offered them a helping hand.

After a long while, Yin Yang and Qian Kun raised their heads and looked at Ancestor Yang Mei with curiosity.

"How are the talks going?" Yin Yang asked.

"As long as they can persuade Hongjun, we are confident," Yangmei Patriarch replied calmly.

"I see." Qiankun sneered. "Even if he doesn't want to suffer this injustice, he has no choice but to swallow it! After all, we are in control now, not Hongjun!"

Qiankun Yinyang was quite confident about this. After all, tempted by the three Chaos Treasures, even if Hongjun was unwilling, the other powerful beings of the prehistoric world might force him to agree! Because even if those three treasures were returned, they would still return to Hongjun's hands. But if it were the other two, the situation would be different—perhaps other prehistoric saints would also have the opportunity to wield the Chaos Treasures.

Just then, Ancestor Yangmei raised an eyebrow: "They sent a letter."

"how?"

"Of course I agree." Ancestor Yangmei nodded with a smile. "I'll be right back."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ancestor Yangmei stepped forward, and his figure suddenly disappeared from this small world.

Almost instantly, Ancestor Yangmei appeared at the edge of the primordial world. In his hand was a treasure that seemed to be forged from lava—an iron rod, its blade engraved with gilded runes resembling lava, radiating an extremely terrifying aura. Just looking at that rod was like seeing a chaotic, ferocious figure battling against heaven and earth!

It was none other than the Chaos Demon Ape's natal treasure—the Heavenly Battle Staff!

As Ancestor Yangmei appeared, three figures also emerged from the distant chaos—Lingxiao, Luohou, and Hongjun.

"Fellow Daoist, you've arrived quite early." Ling Xiao said with a smile, his gaze immediately falling on the staff. He cupped his hands and said, "This must be the Heavenly Battle Staff, isn't it? It's indeed extraordinary."

"That's natural, after all, it's one of the few remaining Chaos Treasures in the world." Ancestor Yangmei chuckled. "Back then, when we all besieged Pangu, the Chaos Demon Ape was the most fierce and domineering, even taking the initiative to attack Pangu. Unfortunately, his strength was far inferior to Pangu's, and he was quickly killed. Fortunately, Pangu's last axe only severed his arms. And he held this treasure tightly in his arms, and in the end, this treasure, along with the remains of his arms, drifted into the Chaos."

As he spoke, Ancestor Yangmei took out two golden hand bones from his sleeve, as if they were forged from gold! The bones exuded a terrifying aura of the Great Dao realm!
The remains of the Chaos Demon Ape!

Ling Xiao's pupils contracted slightly. His mind raced; if he could obtain this item, and later fuse it with his four monkeys, their power would undoubtedly increase significantly!
"Ancestor, how much are these two hand bones?" Ling Xiao immediately stepped forward and examined the hand bones carefully.

"Not for sale." Ancestor Yangmei shook his head.

"Not for sale?" Ling Xiao was immediately in a dilemma. These two hand bones were extremely useful to him, and it would be a real pity if he couldn't get them.

However, the next moment, Ancestor Yangmei said, "Although I won't sell it, I can give it to you directly. Consider it an apology for my previous trespassing in the prehistoric world."

"Alright, alright! Then this matter is settled!" Ling Xiao quickly put the two bones into his pocket, but secretly thought to himself, "This old guy has been scavenging in the Chaos Sea for countless years with his spatial abilities; he must have a lot of good stuff..."

However, Ling Xiao had no intention of robbing Yang Mei Ancestor. This wasn't because he couldn't defeat him, but simply because he couldn't catch up to him! The title "Space Demon God" was no joke. If he were truly in danger, there was probably nothing in the world that could trap him!

Hongjun, watching from afar, was ashen-faced, his heart churning with resentment: "Outrageous! That old thief clearly came to attack me, steal my treasures, and even nearly flattened my Zixiao Palace! Now he's apologizing not to me, but to that Lingxiao?" He felt a surge of anger rising in his chest, almost impossible to swallow! Lingxiao, seeing this, was greatly pleased. To him, Yangmei Ancestor's last intrusion into the prehistoric world had a clear objective; he attacked and fled, causing no widespread destruction. As for the other powerful beings of the prehistoric world, it was none of his business: "He attacked Hongjun, what does it have to do with me?"

After accepting the treasure, Ling Xiao gave Hongjun in the distance a look that made his meaning clear: "Dao Ancestor, you don't want to break the agreement and fail to retrieve the Tower of Annihilation, do you?"

Hongjun took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and retrieved the Time-Space Wheel that had almost been taken from him. Lingxiao took the treasure and immediately said, "How about I keep it for now?"

"Well..." Ancestor Yangmei pondered for a moment, then nodded. "Hongjun is absolutely untrustworthy. As for Rahu?" He glanced at the Demon Ancestor, "He is also untrustworthy. Last time, those who trusted his Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Phoenix, and Ancestral Qilin fell into a pit and couldn't climb out."

A moment later, Ancestor Yangmei nodded and tossed the Dutian Battle Staff in his hand to Ling Xiao: "Alright, now it's time to proceed with the second transaction. I'll take you to retrieve the Tower of Annihilation."

Ling Xiao exchanged a glance with Luo Hou and Hong Jun, then followed closely behind Yang Mei Ancestor.

The four powerful figures vanished instantly. A streak of light shot into the chaos, traveling at breakneck speed!
The Chaos Sea is extremely chaotic, and only a Chaos God like Ancestor Yangmei can pinpoint its location.

Amidst the flowing light, Ling Xiao sat cross-legged, deep in thought, seemingly comprehending the spatial techniques employed by Ancestor Yang Mei.

After about a day, Ancestor Yangmei stopped what he was doing.

“Right here,” Ancestor Yangmei pointed.

Lingxiao, Luohou, and Hongjun gazed intently and saw a vast world floating in the distance!
"Oh? It's actually a world of its own?" Ling Xiao's interest was immediately piqued. If he could devour this world and share its fortune, it would be an immense benefit to the prehistoric world.

The three exchanged a glance and, without prior arrangement, rushed toward that other world.

"Sigh, even if it's not a trap, we still have to be careful." Ancestor Yangmei shook his head slightly and followed closely beside Ling Xiao.

A moment later, the four stepped into this world. Ling Xiao frowned slightly: "Something's not right, there's no sign of life!" He looked at Ancestor Yang Mei with a strange expression.

“Don’t look at me,” Ancestor Yangmei shook his head and said, “It was not my doing. When I arrived here by chance, the battle was already over, and there was no sign of life here.”

"A battle?" Ling Xiao and the other two were all taken aback.

"Follow me." Ancestor Yangmei quickened his pace and arrived at the center of this world in a short while.

There stood a bizarre altar. Its surface was carved with countless twisted patterns, and upon it slept a massive, distorted figure. The monster possessed dozens of strange faces, each radiating a distinct aura of the Dao. Even in its slumber, Ling Xiao could sense the astonishing hatred and rage contained within it.

"What is this?" Ling Xiao wondered, vaguely sensing that the aura was somewhat similar to that of Luo Hou beside him.

"Such a thing actually exists!" Luo Hou gasped.

"What? Do you know something?" Ling Xiao pressed.

"I know a little about it, and I recall some ancient legends," Luo Hou said in a deep voice. "This thing was born from the overwhelming evil thoughts, hatred, and resentment left behind by the three thousand demon gods when Pangu killed them, combined with the enormous sins that arose from the creation of the world!"

"Such a peculiar composite monster?" Ling Xiao exclaimed in amazement.

"If that's the case, why don't you destroy it instead of leaving it here?" Rahu asked, turning to Yangmei Ancestor.

"I did not raise it, but merely imprisoned it here," Ancestor Yangmei explained. "It contains the Tower of Annihilation within its body. Releasing it or killing it would surely alarm that scoundrel Shen Ni. I still need to use the tower as a bargaining chip, so naturally I cannot act rashly."
