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

The entire primordial world underwent another change, with the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man all moving in unison. The stars in the heavens emitted boundless starlight, and the entire universe released its radiance.

Above the heavens, a shower of celestial flowers fell, and the once clear sky, stretching for billions of miles, instantly transformed into a golden sea of ​​clouds, as if something was being nurtured within it.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the Nine Netherworld Demon Realm, all wanting to know what had happened.

Purple aura travels thirty thousand miles eastward, traversing the heavens and earth. Along with it, the four sacred beasts manifest in the primordial world. The Azure Dragon coils in the east, releasing boundless light, highlighting the figure of Emperor Shitian.

Then, true dragons soared up from the four seas, ten thousand dragons converged, and their roars resounded through the heavens.

The true phoenix of the south soared into the sky, its cry echoing through the heavens.

The Qilin emerged from Buzhou Mountain and rose from the east, traversing the heavens and earth, bringing endless auspiciousness.

A black, three-legged golden crow stood tall in the heavens.

Indra has successfully attained the Primordial Chaos!

"interesting!"

"That's so interesting!"

Looking at the three-legged golden crow image in the sky, Donghua couldn't help but murmur twice.

Because he sensed a familiar presence.

"His Majesty?"

"Is that His Majesty Emperor Jun?"

"Di Jun? How is that possible?"

"..."

Not only Donghua sensed it, but countless demons and other powerful beings also sensed Dijun's aura, and some ancient demon gods stared fervently at the Golden Crow Dharma Image.

They are waiting for the answer they have in mind!

Donghua glanced calmly at Indra in the sky, then stepped directly into the eye of the sea.

He wasn't very interested in either Di Jun or Di Jun, given the vast difference in their strength; even if Di Jun were resurrected, he wouldn't be worthy of being his opponent.

If they obey, that's fine; if they don't, they'll be reincarnated again.

Within the sea eye, Rahu had already suppressed everyone who entered and injected a black lotus into Shennong's body.

"Become a demon, young friend Hongyun!"

After the black lotus entered the body, it began to forcibly convert the red cloud's path, and the intense demonic power instantly annihilated the red cloud's path.

"Haha, young friend Hongyun, you will become another Hunyuan in my demonic path after Di Shitian."

The demonic power began to merge into Hongyun's body, which then triggered all his merits, causing his cultivation at the peak of the Taiyi realm to surge rapidly.

The river of time emerges, revealing the past, present, and future simultaneously...

Just as Shennong was about to merge his three bodies, the supreme treasure Kongtong Seal suddenly released boundless golden light, enveloping Shennong within it.

Luo Hou's expression changed, and he roared angrily, "Donghua!"

He sensed a familiar aura from the Kongtong Seal; it was the power of Donghua. He hadn't expected Donghua to have foreseen his attack on Shennong.

"Demon Ancestor, it's been a long time!"

"Or rather, since this is our first meeting, please give me your guidance, Demon Ancestor."

Donghua appeared before Luo Hou. It wasn't the first time the two had fought, but this was truly the first time they had met face to face like this.

Because this time Rahu has descended in his true form!

Luo Hou then realized that this was the first time the two had met. Although Donghua was famous in the ancient times, he was not in Luo Hou's eyes. He was just a junior with some talent.

Yet this junior has repeatedly thwarted his plans, especially after Donghua shattered all his schemes the last time he returned from the Great Dao.

Moreover, last time, Donghua actually dared to provoke me in the River of Time and the God-Slaying Spear.

"Did you come alone? Where is Hongjun? Isn't he coming out?"

Donghua laughed and said, "Demon Ancestor, times have changed. You are no longer the Demon Ancestor you once were. Are you not worthy of the Dao Ancestor's intervention?"

Luo Hou snorted coldly and said, "How dare you, junior!"

"Whether you're presumptuous or not, we'll only know after we fight!" Donghua's calm tone annoyed Luo Hou.

He recalled his conversation with Hongjun on the Blood Sea, but he never expected that this day would actually come.

Donghua truly deserves to be his rival, which is why he's furious.

The tension between the two was palpable!

Meanwhile, Shennong, enveloped by the golden light of the Kongtong Seal, successfully merged with the demonic path, and the Human Emperor's Dharma Image appeared. In an instant, his three bodies became one, and he stepped into the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

The memories of his past life as Hongyun were restored, and with the enlightenment of the Great Dao in his two lifetimes, his cultivation level increased rapidly.

Early, middle, late, and peak stages of the Great Luo!

Quasi-Saint stage: early, middle, late, and peak.

His cultivation progressed without any pause, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the peak of Quasi-Saint. The only remaining question was whether he could break through to the Primordial Chaos stage.

But that all depends on Hongyun's fate!

At this moment, Donghua and Luohou's aura had reached its peak, their powerful presence seemingly locking down all time and space and the Great Dao, causing the entire world to fall into a state of stillness.

Donghua: Peak of the fifth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm!

Luo Hou: First entry into the sixth level of Hunyuan Heaven!

"The Battle of Chaos!"

"Come!"

The two figures vanished instantly, reappearing in the chaos.

The two stood empty-handed, their powerful aura causing the chaos to form two vacuum circles.

"boom!"

The next moment, the two attacked simultaneously, throwing a punch as if they were two mortals fighting.

But with a single punch, chaos is torn apart, all laws evolve, and the fist is the Dao.

The two could wield the three thousand Great Daos with ease; a single punch unleashed a complete Great Dao.

The booming sounds of their clashes echoed through the chaos as the two exchanged over a thousand punches in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, many Primordial Chaos beings and Sages from the primordial world also appeared in the Chaos to watch this unprecedented battle.

Hongyun, who was in the eye of the sea, had already stabilized his cultivation. He was not in a hurry to break through to the Hunyuan realm, as he was still far from it.

The true form of the Ancestral Dragon suddenly began to roll. Hongyun frowned, and seeing the state of the Ancestral Dragon, he instantly understood.

With Rahu fully engaged in the battle, he was no longer able to control the true form of the Ancestral Dragon, and the Ancestral Dragon's own consciousness was returning.

"Whoosh!"

A beam of light seemed to flash across the sea eye from the heavens above, its powerful force causing the group to retreat hastily.

"The power of Heaven's Way?"

Hongyun nodded thoughtfully, thinking that it made sense. Although he didn't know what methods Luo Hou had used to deceive the Heavenly Dao and thus control the Ancestral Dragon's true form.

But now that the power bestowed upon the Ancestral Dragon has disappeared, the Heavenly Dao has finally realized what was happening and has begun to repair the previous loopholes.

With the removal of the demonic power, the Ancestral Dragon fully regained his senses.

"Rahu, Rahu, you truly are my mortal enemy!"

After recovering, Zulong showed neither anger nor sadness, but simply sighed calmly, as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

The glorious past years floated into Zu Long's mind. Since his birth, his life had been like that of a protagonist in a story.

Create the Dragon Clan and become the ruler of the four seas.

Join the Kunwu Divine Dynasty and become the leader of the Five Insects.

Fighting ferocious beasts, surviving great calamities, dividing the primordial world into three.

At his peak, he controlled half of the primordial world's destiny, and all races submitted to him.

Later, the three races fought a great war, the heavens and earth collapsed, and all races were disgusted.

Finally, he used his body to suppress the sea eye, and his primordial spirit transformed into the Dao.

Every failure he suffered was related to Rahu. This time, Rahu stripped him of all the fortune and merit he had accumulated from suppressing the sea eye for countless eons, merging it into Indra's body and completely severing his path to enlightenment.

How could I not hate?

But more than anything, I felt a sense of powerlessness.

If he were to return from the Great Dao now, he would declare war on the Demonic Path without hesitation, but he is not qualified now, and does not even possess the most basic freedom.

But it must be said that Rahu was really ruthless, causing the Ancestral Dragon such a terrible fate twice.

"Perhaps this is my fate!"

Zu Long sighed helplessly, then turned his gaze to the crowd.

"The Human Emperor Shennong?"

Hongyun stepped forward and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Zulong."

The Ancestral Dragon's enormous head turned once, then gently shook its head and said, "I can see that you want to attain the Primordial Chaos Realm in one fell swoop, but your accumulation is insufficient, and you cannot break through to the Primordial Chaos Realm."

Hongyun remained silent, making no attempt at the final step. No one could say for sure whether it would succeed, and she would not give up because of Zulong's words.

"I can help you!"

"Hmm?" Hongyun asked in confusion, wondering what Zulong meant. How could others interfere with the path to enlightenment?

"In the ancient times, the first divine dynasty in the primordial world, the Kunwu Divine Dynasty, was established. It divided all the races in the world into five categories: snails, scaled creatures, hairy creatures, feathered creatures, and insects. My dragon race is the leader of the five insects and is also a symbol of the dynasty's fortune."

"Therefore, since the beginning of the Kunwu Divine Dynasty, the destiny of the primordial world has taken shape, which is the form of a true dragon."

At this point, Zu Long paused, looked at Hong Yun, and asked, "What do you think of the Dragon Clan and the Human Clan forming a life-and-death alliance?"

Hongyun did not answer the question, but instead asked, "What benefits would an alliance with the dragon race bring to our human race?"

He was no longer the vanished Red Cloud Daoist, but the Human Emperor Shennong, whose thoughts and considerations naturally prioritized the interests of the human race.

"The Four Seas are the territory of the Dragon Clan. As long as the Sea Eye exists, the Dragon Clan will never perish, so the human race will never be able to set foot in the Four Seas."

"I wish to use the dragon race as the totem of the human race, to provide the human race with the fortune of the four seas, and from then on, the human race will also be one of the masters of the four seas. What do you say?"

Hongyun fell silent. The conditions offered by Zulong were too tempting. The dragon race was the totem of the human race, so it naturally represented submission to the human race and a life-and-death contract. Most importantly, it represented the fortune of the four seas.

However, the conditions mentioned by the First Emperor were not enough, because there was also the Heavenly Court. It was precisely because of the existence of the Heavenly Court that the benefits mentioned by the First Emperor were greatly diminished.

It should be understood that the Heavenly Court is the true master of the Four Seas and the Dragon Clan. The majority of the benefits mentioned by the Ancestral Dragon belong to the Heavenly Court, so it is not enough to tempt Hongyun.

"not enough."

Dragon whiskers danced in the air, and the Ancestral Dragon nodded gently, saying, "Therefore, I will help you attain the Primordial Dao!"

Hongyun stared wide-eyed at Zulong in disbelief. He hadn't believed it before, but now that it was said, it was true.

"Fellow Daoist Zulong, why is this?"

Zulong sighed, "Back then, the three of us transformed into Dao to suppress the earth, fire, water, and wind. Although Yuanfeng was restricted, her consciousness was still intact, and she could even fight with the help of her incarnation. The First Qilin was seriously injured, so he never appeared in the prehistoric world. Only the original body was unable to appear in the prehistoric world."

"Because this is my plan, a plan concerning the attainment of enlightenment."

"When the world is shattered, the elites of the three races are all killed or wounded, and the boundless killing intent flows to the west, I will know that my era has come to an end."

"But I know I will eventually return, so I completely transformed into the Dao, leaving only my true body to suppress the sea eye, gathering merit and fortune, while I wait, waiting for a great change in the world."

"I don't know if this great change will come, or if it will be during an immeasurable eon, but I'm taking the gamble."

"I won my bet, and I lost my bet!"

"The great changes in heaven and earth have indeed occurred, and my consciousness is gradually awakening from the Great Dao, but at this moment Rahu appears."

"Countless years of planning have come to nothing!"

Zu Long's eyes reddened. Although regret was useless now, he was still unwilling to give up. This was the path to enlightenment, the pursuit of his entire life.

"I don't know how Rahu managed to deceive the Heavenly Dao and tamper with my true form, but I imagine it must have happened after Rahu first returned from the Great Dao in the ancient times."

"It is impossible to deceive the Heavenly Dao with cultivation alone. No matter how high Luo Hou's cultivation is, it is impossible. Therefore, the only way is through a supreme treasure."

"The only treasure that can conceal the Heavenly Dao and has not yet appeared in the primordial world is the Great Millstone of Annihilation, whose power of annihilation is precisely the nemesis of the power of the Heavenly Dao."

Hongyun exclaimed in surprise, "The Great Millstone of Annihilation? How is that possible? This supreme treasure has never appeared since the beginning of time. Even Shen Ni back then did not obtain it."

"According to Dao Ancestor, the World-Destroying Millstone in Shen Ni's hands is merely an evolution of the power of world destruction; it is not the treasure itself. Moreover, what makes Luo Hou capable of obtaining this treasure?"

Zu Long shook his head. This was just his guess. After all, the Great Millstone of Annihilation was too special. In terms of power, it was no weaker than the treasure of creation, and in terms of function, it was no less than the Jade Disc of Creation.

It's simply an all-around treasure!

The group stopped discussing the matter, as there was no point in continuing. Rahu was not someone they could deal with. Even without the Great Millstone of Annihilation, Rahu could kill them with a flick of his wrist.

"So, how will Fellow Daoist Zulong help me attain enlightenment?"

The true form of the Ancestral Dragon trembled and transformed into a Daoist body, appearing before everyone.

"Although Rahu has taken away all my accumulated wealth over the years, he is not me after all. I still have fortune and merit, which, although not enough for me to attain enlightenment, can help you take another step forward."

"My path to enlightenment is now severed, leaving me only with reincarnation. But my only concern is for the dragon race, so I will give you all my strength."

Zu Long didn't continue speaking; they were all intelligent people, and there was no need to explain too clearly.

Hongyun's eyes flickered for a moment, then she said directly, "Okay, I agree!"

"Then it's a pleasure to cooperate!"

"It's a pleasure working with you!"

The two immediately agreed to form an alliance.
