Primordial Era: I really don't want to be the Heavenly Emperor!

Chapter 300 Kong Xuan's Past, Suppressing the Volcano

In the primordial south, there lies the immortal volcano of Tiannan!

Inside the volcano, Yuan Feng revealed her true form, with black hair flowing down her shoulders and dressed in a red robe. Her eyes shone with spiritual light, and the Phoenix True Fire appeared and disappeared intermittently. The aura she exuded made the heavenly fire inside the volcano obediently submit.

Beside Yuan Feng stood a red figure. The two stood together, their auras merging, causing the entire Undying Volcano to fall silent, creating a vacuum zone.

Lying in front of the two was a young man, dressed in an ice-blue Taoist robe, tall and handsome.

However, at this moment, the man's face was pale, his eyes were slightly closed, and an aura was emanating from his body, as if he would dissipate in the wind at any moment. This man was none other than Kong Xuan.

After the last great battle, Kong Xuan was seriously injured and was eventually rescued by Zhuque and taken back to the Undying Volcano.

"Sister, how is Kong Xuan's injury? Can you save him?" Yuan Feng is currently only in her primordial spirit state, her true body is still suppressing the Undying Volcano, so she is powerless to help Kong Xuan's injury and can only place her hopes on Zhu Que.

Zhuque nodded, then shook her head, and said helplessly, "Kong Xuan's injuries are not a problem. Getting him to wake up is easy for me, but Kong Xuan's foundation may be destroyed."

"This child has extremely high talent for cultivation, mainly because of his excellent character. He fought against a Quasi-Saint with the body of a Great Luo, and finally broke through and killed his opponent in the battle. It is simply a miracle. His talent in the Five Elements Dao is extremely high. He can truly be said to be blessed by heaven."

"I can awaken him, but I can't heal his Dao injury, which will affect his future breakthroughs and may even stop him from reaching his current level."

Yuan Feng fell silent upon hearing this. The Vermilion Bird's strength, aided by the power of the Heavenly Dao, had already surpassed the Quasi-Saint realm. If she couldn't do anything about it, who could?

"Can a Primordial Saint save him? Can a Primordial expert save him?" Yuan Feng asked anxiously, thinking of this.

Zhuque shook her head and said, "I don't know. I don't know what's so special about the Primordial Chaos Realm, but Kong Xuan's Dao injury is very serious. It will take a long time to recover. If he has good fortune and merit, he should be able to recover faster."

Kong Xuan's breakthrough in battle sounds cool and impressive, but it's a major taboo in cultivation, as it can easily lead to backlash from the Great Dao.

Donghua's breakthrough at Xikunlun was out of necessity, mainly because many people were protecting him at the time, including Taishang, Tongtian, Houtu, Jieyin, Zhunti, Zhurong, and others.

Moreover, Donghua is the one who pioneers the Great Dao. He first pioneers the Great Dao and then breaks through his realm. During the process of pioneering the Great Dao, the Heavenly Dao will naturally provide protection, so Donghua is very safe.

But what kind of impromptu breakthrough was Kong Xuan trying to achieve on someone else's turf? Wasn't that just courting death? Fortunately, Kong Xuan was indeed capable; otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died. It can only be said that he was young and impetuous.

Yuan Feng asked, unable to bear it any longer, "Do you have any other ideas?"

Zhuque pondered for a moment and said, "There are two solutions. The first is to make Kong Xuan suffer the same fate as me. The second is for me to heal him, and then his future Dao injuries will depend on his fate!"

Yuan Feng still couldn't accept the solution suggested by Zhu Que. After all, the Phoenix Clan had declined, and the members' cultivation aptitude was generally mediocre. Kong Xuan was her only hope, and also the hope of the Phoenix Clan.

"Sister, please keep an eye on the Undying Volcano for me. I'll go to the heavens and beg the Great Celestial Venerable to see if he would spare Kong Xuan's life for the sake of my Phoenix Clan. Even just providing a feasible solution would be appreciated."

Zhuque didn't say anything about Yuanfeng's persistence, only saying, "Sister, go in peace. I'll take care of things here. Everything will be fine!"

Just as Yuan Feng was about to leave, a voice came from behind.

"Senior Yuan Feng, you abandoned your post without authorization, disregarding the danger to the Undying Volcano. What is your punishment?"

Donghua, dressed in a purple imperial robe, stepped into the volcano with a smile on his face.

"Greetings, Great Celestial Venerable!"

"Greetings, Great Celestial Venerable!"

Yuan Feng and Zhu Que gave a simple bow. Neither of them took Dong Hua's words seriously. Judging from Dong Hua's tone, he was just joking. How could they take it seriously?

Moreover, Yuan Feng was only guarding the Undying Volcano, not actually in prison, so she still had a certain degree of freedom.

Furthermore, the Undying Volcano is not as violent as before, so it is not a problem for Yuan Feng's primordial spirit to leave the volcano for a while.

Donghua gestured and said, "Fellow Daoists, there's no need for such formalities!"

His gaze then lingered on Kong Xuan, and he asked, "Fellow Daoist Yuanfeng, is this your eldest son, Kong Xuan?"

Yuan Feng nodded, then bowed respectfully and said, "I beg the Great Heavenly Venerable to have mercy and save him!"

Donghua smiled and said softly, "Why are you being so formal, Fellow Daoist Yuanfeng? If I could save him, how could I stand idly by?"

After Donghua finished speaking, he stepped forward to Kong Xuan's side, and with a glance, he instantly understood Kong Xuan's physical condition.

Several kinds of Dao power fluctuated within Kong Xuan's body, but they were all suppressed, which was just a minor problem.

The most serious problem is Kong Xuan's Dao injury. Kong Xuan mainly cultivates the Five Elements Dao, but at this moment, the Dao that Kong Xuan cultivates has been shattered, resulting in a break, just like the situation Hou Tu was in back then.

Donghua frowned upon seeing this. The situation was more serious than he had imagined. It seemed that Kong Xuan's victory in the previous battle had not been so easy. But thinking about it, it was quite normal.

Donghua shook his head at Kong Xuan and said, "It's a real pity. If I'm not mistaken, Kong Xuan should have had his own opportunities. He should have obtained the inheritance of a great being from the primordial era, which is why his Five Elements Dao is so powerful."

"But he was still young and impulsive, and that's what ruined him. Even if I can save him, it will take a long time. But this period is the most critical moment for him, and also the most critical period for the primordial world."

After Donghua finished speaking, he mobilized the power of the Great Dao within his body, and the power of the Emperor Dao formed a golden river that enveloped Kong Xuan.

Subsequently, the power of the Great Dao gradually penetrated into Kong Xuan's body, suppressing the scattered Great Dao within him. Some of it was expelled from his body, while some was directly reduced to dust.

After doing all this, Donghua moved both hands together, channeling the power of the Great Dao and the power of the Heavenly Dao into Kong Xuan's body, and finally engraving it onto the Great Dao.

Donghua cultivates the Three Thousand Great Daos, including the Five Elements Great Dao, so there will be no conflict with the Dao cultivated by Kong Xuan.

The Dao traces within Kong Xuan's body were being gradually repaired by Donghua. Until a certain moment, Donghua unleashed a power of merit, combining it with the power of the Heavenly Dao to reconnect Kong Xuan's broken Dao.

Just then, Kong Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, stood up from the ground, and looked around with a cold expression.

The moment he met Donghua's gaze, there was no respect or fear in his eyes, but rather a longing.

"wild!"

This was Donghua's first assessment of Kong Xuan: this person had no sense of awe, not even towards the strong; all he had was a desire to become like them.

Perhaps this is why Kong Xuan was able to advance his spiritual realm so relentlessly, and why he later dared to confront the sages with such pride.

But when Kong Xuan looked at Yuan Feng, his eyes finally moved, and a hint of tenderness flashed across them.

This was the first time he had seen Yuan Feng!

"So this is what the stirrings of blood feel like!"

This was the first time Kong Xuan had met Yuan Feng, and it was also the first time Yuan Feng had met Kong Xuan, but both of their gazes were very gentle.

But soon after, Kong Xuan's eyes turned cold, and he couldn't help but ask, "Was the great battle back then really that intense? You sent us brothers out into the world alone, disregarding everything. Was your ambition so important? You didn't even have time to bring us back to the Phoenix Clan?"

Faced with Kong Xuan's questioning, Yuan Feng had nothing to say, her eyes filled with guilt. In her life, the people she felt most sorry for were her two sons, Kong Xuan and Qing Xuan.

At the most critical moment of the war between the three races, she comprehended the Three Thousand Great Daos, and the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements interacted with each other. Subsequently, she ushered in her final Nirvana at the Quasi-Saint realm.

It was also during this period of rebirth that Kong Xuan and Qingxuan were born.

However, as her Nirvana ended, her cultivation successfully broke through to the peak of Quasi-Saint, and she also gave birth to two phoenix eggs.

But at that time, she was focused on conquering the primordial world, making the Phoenix Clan rule the world, and finally gathering the fortune of heaven and earth to prove the Dao of Hunyuan. She had no time to care about these two children.

In the end, the only option was to inscribe an array there to attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth so that Kong Xuan and Qing Xuan could be born sooner.

Yuan Feng returned to the battlefield and continued fighting against the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan.

Until the final battle between the three races, none of them emerged victorious, and she suppressed the Undying Volcano, at which point she could not leave the volcano.

Kong Xuan and Qingxuan took human form at that time.

Donghua had nothing to say about the grudges between Yuanfeng and Kong Xuan; they were mother and son, so what business was it of his?

"Kong Xuan, you broke through in battle and later suffered a Dao injury. Although I have healed you, it was done by using my Five Elements Dao. Therefore, you need a long time to comprehend my Five Elements Dao and eventually make it your own."

Donghua then looked at Kong Xuan and asked, "Who is your master?"

Upon hearing Donghua's question, Kong Xuan hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "He is not my master; I merely inherited his Dao, but I still regard him as my master."

"The Five Elements Ancestor?" Donghua asked tentatively.

"Yes, it is the Five Elements Ancestor!"

Kong Xuan was lost in his memories. After a long while, he slowly said, "That was when I had just taken human form and was born. At that time, the war between the three races had entered its final decisive battle."

"After my birth, I was lost and confused, not knowing where to go. In the end, I headed towards the place where my bloodline led me, which was the battlefield of the three races!"

"But by the time I arrived, the great battle was over. The Ancestral Dragon suppressed the four seas, the First Qilin suppressed the spiritual veins of the world, and she also guarded the Undying Volcano."

"I wanted to find a member of my clan, but I couldn't find a single one. I could only rely on my own exploration to cultivate, and I devoted myself to comprehending the innate divine powers and the Five Elements Great Dao, until later when the Demon Clan invaded the prehistoric world, and I was not able to escape it either."

"Fortunately, I was lucky and was saved by the Five Elements Ancestor at a critical moment. He saw that I had good aptitude and was a primordial deity who cultivated the Five Elements Great Dao, so he wanted to take me as his disciple."

"Unfortunately, before he could accept me as his disciple, he received an invitation from the Dao Ancestor to join forces in annihilating the demon race."

"We had agreed that he would take me as his disciple when he returned, but after that trip, he never came back. I never saw him return in the cave."

"Fortunately, his cave contained many cultivation scriptures and golden strategies for the Great Dao. I consulted those books and focused on cultivating the Five Elements Great Dao, which is why I have achieved what I have today!"

After listening to Kong Xuan's words, Donghua nodded. This was normal; otherwise, it would have been difficult for Kong Xuan to have reached his current cultivation level on his own.

This wasn't because he looked down on Kong Xuan, but because it was the truth. In the primordial world, those who could achieve the Quasi-Saint realm were all exceptionally talented, blessed by heaven, and possessed extraordinary fortune.

So what virtue or ability did Kong Xuan possess to achieve what he has today?

However, if Kong Xuan were to begin cultivating the Great Dao based on the foundation laid by the Five Elements Ancestor, he could understand it. After all, the master leads you through the door, but the cultivation depends on yourself.

But this also demonstrates Kong Xuan's extraordinary nature!

"After leaving the cave world, I began to travel through the primordial wilderness, which was still the domain of the Lich Kings. It was only through continuous cultivation that I achieved what I have today!"

Upon hearing Kong Xuan's words, Yuan Feng tried to reach out and stroke him, but Kong Xuan dodged her. In the end, Yuan Feng could only say, "I'm sorry, it's my fault for being so incompetent!"

"However, I am truly gratified by the achievements you two brothers have made. You are now at the Quasi-Saint realm, and Qingxuan has become a disciple of the Great Celestial Venerable. I need not worry about your future development."

Perhaps these are the two things that make Yuanfeng most gratified right now: that both of her sons are successful.

Seeing the two talking, Donghua didn't say anything, but instead focused his gaze on the inside of the volcano. His divine eyes pierced through the void and finally arrived inside the volcano.

Wherever the eye can see, that's where Donghua goes!

Donghua's figure vanished instantly, arriving inside the volcano.

Inside, the formation they had set up together was still in operation, with the power of the Great Dao suppressing the Undying Volcano and preventing it from erupting.

With a flick of his finger, Donghua unleashed a surge of primordial energy, channeling all the power of the Great Dao into the formation, its boundless power illuminating the volcano.

The formation started operating at an extremely fast speed, a hundred times faster than before!

The Primordial Taiji, Yin and Yang, the Three Powers, the Four Symbols and Five Elements, the Six Harmonies and Seven Stars, the Eight Trigrams and Nine Palaces, and the boundless power of the ten directions!

Donghua completed the grand formation here based on the original formation. It could even be said that the formation here is a microcosm of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.

Under this great formation, the volcano was suppressed once again, and even began to divide its power. If time were long enough, the volcano's power could indeed be divided into nothingness.

Now, with the operation of the great formation, the power of the volcano has begun to be divided into pure spiritual energy to nourish the heavens and earth.

"It seems that the four great killing formations of the primordial world are not only infinitely powerful, but also quite usable. I really look forward to seeing what it would be like to refine the power of chaos using the Zhou Tian Star Formation."

"Does the Heavenly Array have other uses as well?"

Having accomplished this, Donghua smiled with satisfaction, then flew out of the volcano. At this time, Kong Xuan and Yuan Feng had also finished their conversation.
