Primordial Era: I, Wutu, govern the Earthly Dao and suppress the Heavenly Dao.

The sheer concentration of laws contained in these twelve drops of essence blood made Zhen Yuanzi several times more confident in his plan to use them to enhance his cultivation and awaken the underground passage ahead of schedule.

Without the slightest delay, he sat down cross-legged and began to comprehend the laws one by one.

By closely studying Dijiang's spatial laws, his already highly developed spatial control became several times more profound, but he was still some distance from perfection.

Although Zhu Jiuyin's laws of time are infinitely profound, they also allowed him to touch upon a wisp of something that could carry the future...

While Zhen Yuanzi was immersed in the ocean of laws,

The primordial calamity grew increasingly intense, eventually shrouding the entire world one day and erupting completely!

The reason for the outbreak of the Great Calamity was that the strength of the Beast God Shen Ni had increased once again!

Although the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans were born to face the calamity, they were simply unable to eliminate the ferocious beast clan with their own power.

Furthermore, by uniting all races and launching another counterattack against the ferocious beasts, Shenni was enraged.

In front was the White Tiger clan, and behind were three other clans.

Do they really think they're all like Zhen Yuanzi, capable of making this beast god feel inadequate and unwilling to retreat?

Unable to break Zhen Yuanzi's grand formation, Shen Ni, feeling ashamed of losing face as the Beast God, was worried about not being able to quickly improve his strength and having nowhere to vent his anger.

And just then, the three races of dragon, phoenix, and qilin were born!

For him, the appearance of the three races was like a pillow delivered to his sleepy head, a divine blessing!

The myriad races and spirits were scattered throughout the primordial land, making them extremely difficult to kill. However, the appearance of the three races perfectly suited his wishes, bringing them all together!

How could Shen Ni miss such a golden opportunity that could plunge the primordial world into chaos and even return it to primordial chaos?

So he went straight out of the Beast God Palace and personally led the three great beast kings and trillions of ferocious beasts to slaughter the dragon, phoenix and qilin clans!

After dozens of cycles of slaughter.

War raged across the primordial world, with blood flowing like a sea. The three races were utterly annihilated by the gods, and countless non-Primordial Golden Immortals perished!

Even the Ancestral Dragon, the Primordial Phoenix, and the First Qilin suffered serious injuries.

Therefore, after receiving so many "supplements", Shenni's chaotic and murderous laws greatly improved!

His strength at the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm has increased once again. He is only one step away from becoming a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal!

The powerful aura of the gods enveloped the entire prehistoric world, overwhelming the three races and plunging them into a deathly silence.

The onlookers, including Hongjun, Luohou, Yin Yang, and other demon gods, fell silent.

They also wanted to kill the god and obtain boundless merit to prove their Dao, but their strength was insufficient!

Together?

We don't have enough people!

Yang Mei has disappeared!

Severe injury to both Yin and Yang!

On the surface, only Hongjun, Luohou, and Qiankun remain. How can we kill them?

West Kunlun Mountain.

Upon hearing the news of the crushing defeat reported by his clansmen, the First Qilin's eyes filled with solemnity.

"No, this can't go on."

"With the strength of our clan and the Dragon and Phoenix clans, we can barely deal with Taotie, Chaos, and Taowu, and even if our three clans join forces, we will not be able to kill the Beast God Shenni."

"Only by upholding the divine reversal can we create an opportunity to annihilate the three great beast kings and other ferocious beasts!"

"On the contrary, it won't be long before our three races, and indeed all living beings, are annihilated!"

"What do you think is the proper way to uphold divine rebellion?"

Just then, the black jade unicorn spoke.

"Brother, I do have a plan, but I don't know if it will work."

"Oh?" Shi Qilin was quite surprised and asked in a deep voice, "Third brother, what's your plan?"

A dark glint flashed in Mo Qilin's eyes.

"While the power of Shenni is beyond the reach of our three races, there are beings in this world capable of supporting him, or even slaying him!"

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in the eyes of the fire qilin below:

"What my third uncle said is absolutely right."

"Father, I have learned that before our three races were even born, the Ancestor Zhenyuan, with the strength of an early-stage Hunyuan Golden Immortal, used the power of a single formation to suppress the billions of ferocious beasts led by the Beast God Shenni, causing them to suffer a crushing defeat!"

"And now, this ancestor's strength must far surpass what it was before; he might even possess the power to suppress and kill Shen Ni!"

"Sigh~"

The moment these words were spoken, a sigh echoed through the hall.

The sigh came from the white jade qilin beside the primordial qilin; it shook its head helplessly.

"The Ancestor Zhenyuan may have the power to suppress and kill Shenni, but he has disappeared without a trace since the battle at Yin Yang Wuji Mountain."

"Our clan cannot even find him, let alone ask him for help."

Upon hearing this, the Qilin clan members in the main hall showed a sense of powerlessness.

They all knew that not being able to find any trace of him was only one minor reason.

The main reason, they don't even dare to say outright.

Whether it's the Qilin clan or the Dragon and Phoenix clans, they were all born with the help of Heaven, and killing ferocious beasts is acting on behalf of Heaven!

But that Zhenyuan Ancestor was completely different from them. He was in charge of the still-unawakened laws of the earth, so how could he care about the affairs of the heavenly way?

Seeing that the other clansmen remained silent, the white jade qilin could only speak to the primordial qilin again:

"Brother, we need to get Ancestor Zhenyuan to help our clan."

"Aside from waiting until the primordial world truly returns to chaos, the only way is to proclaim to the primordial world that you were born to control the laws of the earth, and should be considered part of the earth..."

"Second brother!"

The black Qilin suddenly interrupted the white Qilin, speaking in a deep voice:

"You must not forget that our clan was able to be born because of the power of the Heavenly Dao. Even if our elder brother controls the laws of the earth and the origin of the five elements, we should not betray the Heavenly Dao."

"And what I just wanted to say is that, in the primordial world, besides Ancestor Zhenyuan, there were other ancestors who could also hold back and kill Shenni!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Qilin, who had been silent for a long time, spoke in a low voice.

"Third brother is right. Although Shen Ni is powerful, there are also Chaos Gods in the primordial world. That fellow Daoist Yin Yang whom I saved should help for the sake of our Qilin clan!"

Before the words could even finish, the First Qilin suddenly transformed into a streak of earth-yellow light and sped towards Yin Yang Wuji Mountain.

Watching his elder brother's departing figure, a glint of dark light flashed in Mo Qilin's eyes.

At the summit of Wuji Mountain.

"What did you say?"

The Yin-Yang Ancestor jolted awake from his meditation cushion, staring intently at the First Qilin before him.

"Fellow Daoist Linrui, you did save me once, but you actually want me to hold back the Beast God Shenni as repayment for your kindness, and even the karmic consequences of the primordial world. Isn't that asking too much of an unreasonable request?"

Lin Rui raised his eyes and met the gaze of the Yin-Yang Ancestor.

"Fellow Daoist, your statement is flawed."

"This is not only for our Qilin clan, but also for you, fellow Daoist."

"The Heavenly Dao has not been manifest for a long time now. Is this not the perfect opportunity for you, my fellow Daoist, to gain the merits of the Great Dao and thereby prove your Dao?"

Upon hearing this, the Yin-Yang Ancestor fell silent.

He had to admit that Shi Qilin's words were exactly what his Dao heart had always been thinking.

But how easy is it to first kill the rebellious gods and gain the merit of the Great Dao?

If he had the Taiji Diagram, even if he wasn't confident in killing Shen Ni, he would at least be confident in running away if he couldn't win. But now…

He had only just begun to recover from the injuries sustained by the demon, and now he was going to do something against the gods?

He'd have to be crazy to go by himself!

If I go, it will be with a few other "old friends"!

The Yin-Yang Ancestor knew very well that after so much time had passed, the others must also be like him, lacking any confidence or means to destroy Shen Ni on their own.

Instead of letting things continue like this, we should take action together!

After making his decision, the Yin-Yang Ancestor stood up and said:

"Fellow Daoist Linrui, you once saved my life, and I must repay this kindness in both Yin and Yang."

"I can support Shen Ni, but only if I have the help of several other fellow Daoists!"
