Primordial Era: The Giant Turtle Returning from Immortality

Guiyuan didn't say much, but his mind stirred.

The Heavenly Fiend Tower, one of the thirty-three most malevolent treasures of the Three Heavens, which was suspended beside him and shrouded in malevolent energy, trembled slightly, and the door at the bottom of the tower opened.

In an instant, tens of thousands of "Essence Pills" the size of a thumb rolled down like beads of blood, which he supported with his magic power and sent to Xuanming.

The pill floated in the air, emitting a powerful and pure essence of flesh and blood, causing the thin spiritual energy around it to fluctuate slightly.

Xuanming glanced at it, a hint of surprise flashing across her cold and beautiful brows.

She stretched out two slender fingers, casually picked up a pearl, and applied slight pressure with her fingertips.

"Smack."

The pill shattered upon impact, but instead of turning into dust, it exploded into a dense, almost tangible mass of blood-red essence, which she inhaled with a slight twitch of her nostrils.

A warm current instantly spread throughout her body, nourishing her severely damaged witch body.

The purity of this essence far surpasses any blood food she has ever consumed before, and it can directly replenish her energy without much refining.

"...It's acceptable."

Xuanming finally spoke, his voice still cold, but at least it was no longer completely rejecting.

Without further hesitation, she swallowed all the tens of thousands of Qi Pills floating in front of her.

boom!

An even greater amount of vital energy dissolved within her body, like streams of warm current, frantically repairing her cracked bones and damaged internal organs.

Her body shimmered with a dark light, and a malevolent aura spontaneously protected her. Her injuries began to heal at a visible speed.

However, she immediately shook her head, a hint of solemnity flashing in her beautiful eyes: "In his dying counterattack, the wisp of chaotic evil that he injected into my body contained a trace of the Great Luo True Power, and was extremely stubborn."

I need time to completely erase it.

Upon hearing this, Guiyuan couldn't help but sigh, his tone tinged with helplessness: "You know that guy is not easy to deal with, so why did you go and confront him head-on without being absolutely certain of success?"

Xuanming suddenly narrowed her icy, beautiful eyes, and the murderous aura around her instantly became dangerous, with a chill that almost froze the air.

If it weren't for this guy's help earlier, rescuing me from the Taotie's claws...

Based on his lecturing words alone, she was about to let him taste the power of the Ancestral Witch's fist!

Guiyuan sensed the almost tangible chill, touched his nose, and said no more.

Regarding the chaotic and malevolent energy within Xuanming's body, which was entangled with the power of the Great Luo.

He really didn't have any good solutions for the time being, so she could only rely on her own patience and perseverance to resolve the issue.

Time flies, and hundreds of years have quietly passed in these desolate northern mountains.

Xuanming remained seated with his eyes closed, his body entangled with the stubborn, chaotic malevolent energy.

His breathing was slowly but steadily returning.

On the other side, Guiyuan sat opposite Minghe, not wasting his time.

"The killer is not born to slaughter, but to purify heaven and earth and sever the blade of cause and effect. His heart harbors killing intent yet his spirit remains untainted; his will moves to kill yet his path remains unblemished..."

Guiyuan slowly shared his insights into the "Great Slaughter Technique".

What he said was not the inherent way of killing and conquest in the primordial world.

Rather, it is a perspective on killing that originates from the world of immortality and has been refined through countless battles, offering a unique angle and a higher level of understanding.

At first, Styx listened quietly, but the more it listened, the brighter its eyes became.

In the end, an astonishing brilliance burst forth from those scarlet pupils.

He never expected that this fellow Daoist Guiyuan, who had taken human form in the North Sea and seemed to have no connection with the path of killing, would be so unexpected.

His understanding of "killing" was so profound and unique that many of his views enlightened him, as if he had opened a new door.

"Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Styx clapped his hands in praise, while the phantom images of the Yuan Tu and A Bi swords behind him hummed excitedly.

"Fellow Daoist Guiyuan's words directly address the essence of slaughter; Styx has learned a great deal!"

He no longer kept his secrets, revealing himself as born from a sea of ​​blood, witnessing the killing intent of heaven and earth and the end of all things.

Thus, the primordial path of slaughter, which he comprehended, was fully expounded.

That is a more primal, more direct, and solemn principle that embodies the will of heaven and earth.

The two discussed the Dao, and their vital energies resonated with each other.

Guiyuan felt that Styx's pure and majestic killing intent was like the sharpest whetstone, constantly sharpening the runes of the "Great Slaughter Technique" in his heart.

The divine talisman representing the origin of slaughter trembled violently within his true spirit, as countless mysteries of slaughter flowed, merged, and sublimated.

After an unknown amount of time, Guiyuan's mind was suddenly jolted.

A dark red, heart-shaped, pulsating illusory rune suddenly materialized deep within his consciousness!

A heart set on killing!

Once this thought was formed, the wisps of killing intent that Guiyuan naturally carried due to years of battle instantly vanished without a trace, becoming simple and unadorned.

With a thought, one can unleash overwhelming killing intent at any moment, as easily as controlling one's own arm, without any hindrance.

At their peak Taiyi level, their spiritual senses are incredibly sharp, and their perception of killing intent is terrifying.

Having this "heart of killing" is equivalent to having an excellent means of controlling one's own energy.

It is highly beneficial for both surprise attacks, concealment, and resisting the murderous intent of others.

Guiyuan slowly opened his eyes, looked at Minghe opposite him who had also gained something and whose aura had become increasingly sharp, and smiled slightly:

"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. You have helped me to refine my killing intent."

Styx smiled broadly: "Likewise!"

Discussing the Dao with fellow Daoists is better than ten thousand years of arduous cultivation in the Styx River!

Once this matter is settled, I will surely seek out my fellow Daoists again for a hearty drinking session and a battle of wits!

Just then, another icy and powerful aura surged into the sky, interrupting their conversation.

Xuanming, who had been sitting quietly healing her injuries, stood tall. Her body was surrounded by a harmonious and flowing aura of malevolence.

That troublesome chaotic and malevolent aura has been completely eradicated.

Although she had not yet recovered to her peak, her beautiful eyes shone with a cold light, and her fighting spirit had been rekindled.

She looked at Guiyuan and Minghe, and said succinctly:

"We can get started now."

"Walk!"

With a low shout, Guiyuan sent three figures flying like meteors tearing through the gray sky, making no attempt to conceal their auras as they charged straight toward the core of the Changbai Mountain ancestral vein!

The overwhelming malevolent aura boiled instantly, like stagnant water thrown with a boulder!

"roar--!!!"

A furious roar erupted from the mountaintop, shaking the heavens and the earth.

The massive, mountain-like figure of the Taotie King suddenly stood up, its crimson eyes instantly locking onto the three uninvited guests.

Especially that one that had just escaped its claws not long ago!

When enemies meet, their eyes are filled with intense hatred!

"Proceed according to plan!" Guiyuan shouted telepathically.

The three figures flashed, and in an instant they formed the "Three Talents" formation, surrounding the Taotie in the center.

Xuanming occupies the main position, facing the sharp edge of Taotie directly.

Guiyuan and Minghe are positioned on the flanks, their energy interconnected.

The strategy was decided in an instant.

Xuanming, with the strongest physique and best combat skills, took the lead in the attack, while Guiyuan and Minghe used their spiritual treasures and supernatural powers to suppress and kill from the side!

"kill!"

Xuanming took the initiative and, without any fancy moves, directly revealed his true form as an Ancestral Witch.

With a human face and a beast's body, and green snakes in its ears, a powerful icy aura condensed in its fists, like two ancient, unmelting icebergs, and it slammed fiercely towards the huge, still unhealed blood hole in the chest of the Taotie!

Simple, direct, yet extremely effective!
