Honghuang Taihuang

The Four Divine Beasts descended around the Ziwei Emperor, with the Azure Dragon representing water, the Vermilion Bird representing fire, the White Tiger representing wind, and the Black Tortoise representing land. The power of the Four Symbols evolved once again, and at this moment, the power of the Four Divine Beasts seemed to have truly transformed into the Four Symbols Origin that evolved all things in the universe.

The Purple-Gold Emperor Sword in the palm of the Purple Emperor descended, and the starlight that permeated all the heavens and timelines tore apart the Azure Dragon Water. The White Tiger Sacred Beast roared, and an endless storm, powerful enough to affect the circulation of the primordial energy of the entire prehistoric world, howled forth.

In the raging gale, the void shattered, stars vanished, and even the countless star curtains surrounding the Ziwei Emperor shattered one after another.

The Ziwei Emperor opened his left hand, and thousands of sun and moon projections, like thunderbolts, crashed into the world-destroying storm unleashed by the White Tiger Sacred Beast. The dazzling light and the power of the sun and moon exploded, and the entire deep and dark Taixu Star Sea was illuminated by endless light for a moment.

The sun and moon clashed and exploded, extinguishing the world-destroying storm that instantly collapsed into countless wisps of mist and clouds. The Purple Emperor's gaze shifted, looking at the four sacred beasts around him, and the dense star projections on the Purple Gold Emperor Sword began to take shape one after another.

The clash of the great formations in the Taixu Star Sea became increasingly intense, while Zhuzhao and Youying in the Sun Star and Moon Star respectively had entered the final stage of advancing to the Great Luo Daojun realm.

The three tribulations that led to the advancement of the Great Luo Dao Lord had been successfully overcome by Zhu Zhao and You Ying without any major incident. Zhu Zhao possessed the Taixu Supreme Treasure, Huangtianjian, while You Ying possessed the Taixu Supreme Treasure, Dayuejian, given to her by Taiwei. With the protection of these two Taixu Supreme Treasures, the three tribulations of the Great Luo Dao Lord did not pose much of a threat to Zhu Zhao and You Ying.

At the same time that the Ziwei Emperor clashed with the Four Divine Beasts, Zhuzhao and Youying had already successfully advanced to the Great Luo Daojun realm. And at that very moment, the other powerful beings hidden in the Taixu Star Sea all chose to make their move.

At least two Grand Luo Dao Lords unleashed their full power, bombarding Zhuzhao and Youying, who had just emerged from the Sun Star and Moon Star, aiming to completely kill them in this attack!

The light from the Radiant Heaven Mirror and the Great Moon Mirror converged, and the origins of the sun and moon merged with the origins of the two supreme treasures of the Void. Zhuzhao and Youying were surrounded by surging light, trying to join forces to block this attack, but they underestimated the power of these Great Luo Dao Lords.

The newly promoted Grand Luo Dao Lords, Zhuzhao and Youying, were naturally no match for these veteran Grand Luo Dao Lords. Moreover, these Grand Luo Dao Lords who suddenly made their move also used two Supreme Treasures of the Void. Zhuzhao and Youying were absolutely unable to withstand this attack.

The overwhelming rainbow shattered all the halos emanating from the Sun and Moon stars, and the immense power of the Radiant Heaven Mirror and the Great Moon Mirror was also entangled by the two supreme treasures of the Void.

At this critical moment, a giant bronze axe cleaved down, severing the spacetime order in the Taixu Star Sea. Pangu's true form appeared in the center of the Sun Star and the Moon Star, his eyes, brighter than the sun and moon, looking down at the Great Luo Daojun hidden in the darkness.

Taiwei remained outwardly calm, but a question arose in his heart. There were only two Great Luo Dao Lords hidden in the void, but Taiwei did not recognize them and had never heard of them before, which surprised him.

There were very few Great Luo Dao Lords in the Primordial World. Although Taiwei did not recognize these two, their auras clearly indicated that they were native beings of the Primordial World. The fact that these two had remained hidden until now without making a move clearly indicated that they were either uninterested in vying for power or had much grander ambitions.

Judging from the actions of these two in stopping the Yin-Yang Holy God's destiny, they are clearly not people who are content with being alone. Taiwei has already locked onto their auras and will personally "exchange ideas" with them when the opportunity arises in the future.

Upon seeing Pangu's true form, the two who suddenly attacked glanced at the torn Yin-Yang Microcosmic Annihilation Life and Death Array in the distance and chose to retreat without hesitation. Facing Pangu's true form, which had already reached the level of the Primordial Grand Luo Dao Lord, even if the two of them fought desperately, they would absolutely not be able to withstand a single blow from Pangu's true form.

Within the collapsing Yin-Yang Microcosm Illusionary Life and Death Array, the Supreme Celestial Venerable, the Primordial Celestial Venerable, and the Spiritual Treasure Celestial Venerable emerged from the shattered array, each riding their respective supreme treasures of the Great Void.

Although the Two Elements Microcosmic Annihilation Life and Death Array ultimately could not withstand Taiwei's Pangu True Body, the three of them had already gained unprecedented benefits from the Creation Lotus and Pangu True Body.

As Yuanshi Tianzun watched Zhuzhao and Youying emerge from the Sun Star and the Moon Star, he understood that the divine destiny of the Yin and Yang Saints of the Divine Path was half completed. Zhuzhao and Youying, who had advanced to the Great Luo Dao Lord, were now capable of communicating with the Yin and Yang origins of the Primordial World and fulfilling their own destiny.

The moment Zhuzhao and Youying stepped out of the Sun and Moon, Yuanhuang, Zhuqi, Xuansi, and the Great Sun Tathagata all changed their expressions drastically. The power of the Four Divine Beasts and the Ten Directions Womb Treasury Array of the Two Realms began to increase without limit.

Three metallic Qilins appeared behind Yuan Huang. The three metallic Qilins transformed into billions of armors, fusing the Azure Dragon Sacred Beast and the White Tiger Sacred Beast. A Qilin Sacred Beast covered in golden scales appeared in the Taixu Star Sea.

Covered in boundless holy light, with endless mountains appearing on its head, the Qilin Holy Beast directly smashed away the true form of Pangu who was guarding Zhuzhao and Youying as soon as it appeared.

A wisp of projection from the Four Divine Beasts, combined with the three metallic Qilin and the Qilin royal family's fortune, created this being capable of contending with Pangu's true form for a short time. The roar of the Qilin Divine Beast suppressed the boundless, overwhelming pressure surrounding Pangu's true form at this moment.

Taiwei looked at the Qilin sacred beast before him, his heart tightening. He knew that this was the final battle, and the three royal families and the Buddhist sect would no longer hide their strength.

On Yuanhuang's side, the three metal Qilin gave rise to the Qilin Sacred Beast. Zhu Qi and Xuan Si exchanged a glance and decided to stop holding back.

Three mechanical phoenixes and three steel Xuanwu appeared one after another, and the roar that shook the entire star sea rang out again. The blazing flames swept across the entire Taixu Star Sea, and the deep, dark ocean swallowed up countless stars and star seas.

With its golden-red plumage unfurled and wings obscuring the sun and moon, the Vermilion Bird, a sacred beast, descended and unleashed endless Vermilion Bird Sacred Fire.

With its back armor shaking the heavens and its four legs like pillars of heaven occupying the four poles of the Taixu Star Sea, the Xuanwu Sacred Beast also took shape in an instant. Its four legs spread apart the clear and turbid, shaking the entire Taixu Star Sea.

Within the Great Garbhadhatu Array of the Two Realms and Ten Directions, three thousand Buddhas manifested, and the six Great Luo Dao Fruits manifested by Mahavairocana Tathagata himself were all revealed at this moment.

Six Great Luo Dao Fruits—this was the largest number Taiwei knew of besides himself. The boundless incense and spiritual power burned, and eighty percent of the incense power accumulated by Buddhism over hundreds of millions of years was burned in that instant.

Mount Sumeru rose high from the Womb Treasury Array of the Two Realms and Ten Directions. The already majestic and enormous Mount Sumeru now seemed to have transformed into the center of all things in the universe.

As the great formation dissipated, the golden mountain suppressed all time and space stars. The incomparably majestic golden mountain, carrying immeasurable Buddhist light and holy flames, pressed down on Zhuzhao, who was controlling the Radiant Heaven Mirror.

The bronze giant axe slashed down, its power of opening up the Dao that divides Yin and Yang, purity and turbidity, cleaving apart the central Holy Emperor Cannon blasted out by the Qilin Holy Beast.

Amidst the explosion of boundless light and flame, the Qilin sacred beast took a step back, its four hooves shattering thousands of nearby stars. Pangu's true form also retreated ten thousand miles, its majestic body clad in armor trembling slightly.

The four divine beasts—the Qilin, the Vermilion Bird, the Black Tortoise, and Mount Sumeru—represent the strongest trump cards of the Qilin royal family, the Phoenix royal family, the Black Tortoise royal family, and the Buddhist and Taoist sects.

Whether it's the three sacred beasts or Mount Sumeru, which has absorbed the incense and spiritual power of Buddhism for hundreds of millions of years, they have all reached the profound realm of the Primordial Great Luo Dao Lord, and are no weaker than the true body of Pangu evolved from Taiwei.

No matter how powerful Pangu's true form was, it was impossible for him to fight against four divine beings alone. Fortunately, at this moment, the Great Emperor of the North Pole, Ziwei, arrived with the Purple Gold Emperor Sword.

The Ziwei Emperor, who contained the power of countless cultivators of the divine path and billions of stars, was even stronger than the true form of Pangu. The Chaos Bell rang, and the Purple-Gold Emperor Sword fell, the Purple-Gold sword light carrying billions of stars cleaving away the Mount Sumeru that was suppressing Zhuzhao.

The Ziwei Emperor stood amidst the sea of ​​stars, watching the Vermilion Bird Sacred Beast unleash a world-destroying flame storm. Behind him, countless stars transformed into thousands upon thousands of star swords, tearing apart the Vermilion Bird Sacred Fire that had ignited the Taixu Star Sea.

Pangu's true form confronted the Qilin Sacred Beast, the Ziwei Emperor resisted the Vermilion Bird Sacred Beast, and the Xuanwu Sacred Beast stomped its four legs, charging towards Youying amidst the tremors of the entire Taixu Star Sea.

Within the Great Zhou Celestial Star Array, Fuxi and Nuwa flew out of the array upon seeing this. The celestial rules and earthly order merged with the energy of the Great Luo Heavenly Palace, and the pure Yang limitless ultimate Yang source and the profound Yin limitless ultimate Yin source fused together.

Fuxi and Nuwa each evolved five opposing Great Luo Dao Fruits, which were thrown into the vortex of Yin and Yang origins. The vast and boundless power of the Great Dao's birth and death intertwined and evolved, and an extremely magnificent array transformed into a twelve-colored shimmering light shield, supporting the towering giant foot of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast.

The rules of heaven and earth connect the origin of heaven and earth. The Great Luo Heavenly Palace draws upon the power of the Great Void Star Sea. The three Great Void Treasures and the ten Great Luo Dao Fruits give rise to a supreme array that is no weaker than the Great Zhou Tian Star Array: the Hunyuan Yin Yang He Luo Array.

The creation of heaven and earth gave rise to the Hetu diagram, and the destruction of heaven and earth gave rise to the Luoshu diagram. The Hetu diagram is the mechanism for the creation of all things, and the Luoshu diagram is the ultimate secret of heaven and earth. When the two are combined, they form the Hunyuan Yin-Yang Heluo Grand Array, which represents the life and death of all things and the birth and death of heaven and earth.

Bright and dazzling black and white light spots appeared below the Xuanwu Sacred Beast. As the fifty-five black light spots flickered, the Xuanwu Sacred Beast's formless yet majestic body trembled slightly, as it was forced back by the infinite power of life and death within the Hunyuan Yin Yang Heluo Grand Formation.

Fuxi and Nuwa looked solemn as the Heavenly Rules and Earthly Directions burst forth from the Hunyuan Yin-Yang Heluo Grand Array, with endless circles and squares covering the body of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast.

From the infinite circle, the vast will of heaven descended; from the endless square, all things surged forth; a terrifying power, almost as if heaven and earth were merging, tightly imprisoned the Xuanwu Sacred Beast.

The Hunyuan Yin Yang Heluo Grand Array transformed into a scroll and draped over the Xuanwu Sacred Beast. Black and white light points flashed alternately, and with each flash, the Xuanwu Sacred Beast's massive body shrank little by little, representing the contraction and collapse of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast's own power.

The three sacred beasts, Qilin, Zhuque, and Xuanwu, were blocked by the true form of Pangu, the Ziwei Emperor, and the Hunyuan Yin-Yang Heluo Formation. However, no one could spare the time to defend against the Mount Sumeru that was transformed by the Great Sun Tathagata.

The colossal Mount Sumeru, radiating unparalleled brilliance, blasted the Heavenly Mirror and the Great Moon Mirror away. Even the two fully unsealed supreme treasures of the Void could not stop Mount Sumeru for even a breath.

Mount Sumeru, having absorbed the boundless incense and spiritual power of Buddhism, has reached the level of a Primordial Great Luo Dao Lord in terms of rank, and in terms of combat power, it has already possessed one-tenth of the mighty power of a Primordial Great Luo Dao Lord.

Currently, it is only illuminated by the Great Luo Daojun, and Youying and the other two cannot possibly unleash the full power of the Taixu Supreme Treasure, so naturally they cannot withstand the terrifying power of Mount Sumeru.

The Sun Star and the Moon Star trembled simultaneously. Zhuzhao and Youying, who had advanced to the Great Luo Dao Lord level, were now able to mobilize the power of these two supreme stars to a greater extent. However, even so, it was still impossible for them to destroy Mount Sumeru unless Zhuzhao and Youying could completely control the Sun Star and the Moon Star.

Taiwei, wielding the true form of Pangu, forced back the Qilin Sacred Beast with a single axe strike. Taiwei glanced at the precarious Zhuzhao and Youying, and then at the three Supreme Heavenly Venerables who were watching coldly from afar.

"How long are you three going to wait and see? If you don't act now, when will you?"

With a clear shout from Taiwei, the three Supreme Celestial Venerables immediately looked towards Taiwei. The Supreme Celestial Venerable and Lingbao Celestial Venerable remained silent, while Yuanshi Celestial Venerable flung out the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his hand, and the originally shattered Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Illusionary Life and Death Array began to evolve anew.

The Taiji Diagram, Pangu Banner, Jietian Sword, Huotian Demon Banner, Jiuli Heavenly Demon, and Holy Evil Lord—six supreme treasures of the Great Void—transformed into rainbows and merged into the six gates of life and death of the Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Illusionary Annihilation Array.

The six supreme treasures of the Void merged into the six great array gates. At this moment, the Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Illusionary Annihilation Life and Death Array was almost perfected. Amidst the incredulous expressions of Yuan Huang, Zhu Qi, Xuan Si, and the Great Sun Tathagata, the reconstructed Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Illusionary Annihilation Life and Death Array blocked the way in front of Mount Sumeru.

Within the Great Array of Yin and Yang Dust, where black and white intertwine, thousands upon thousands of Yin-Yang Chaos Holes appeared, piercing through the countless Pure Land Buddhist Kingdoms surrounding Mount Sumeru.

The Two Elements Dust Array, radiating across the endless starry sea, and Mount Sumeru stood facing each other across the deep starry sky. The Great Sun Tathagata looked cold and stern as he watched the rising energy of Zhuzhao and Youying behind the Two Elements Dust Array, his eyes burning with the raging fire of the Bright King.

"The Xuanmen sect has the most cultivators involved in the Yin-Yang Dao. Why would they turn against the Divine Dao at this time and help it? Once the Divine Dao completes its Yin-Yang Sacred Mandate, can the Xuanmen really stand idly by?"

Upon hearing the question from the Great Sun Tathagata, the Primordial Celestial Venerable slowly shook his head: "The Xuanmen has rarely participated in the struggles of the primordial world. However, this time the Yin-Yang Sacred Mandate of the Divine Path involves too many things, and my Xuanmen will naturally not stand aside. It's just that the price offered by the Divine Path this time is too high, and my Xuanmen cannot refuse."

The moment Yuanshi Tianzun finished speaking, wisps of the Taiji Yin-Yang essence suddenly appeared on Zhuzhao and Youying in the distance, and the Taiji Diagram, a supreme treasure of the Void, appeared beneath them. (End of Chapter)
