The primordial era began with the Upper Cave Man.

Chapter 462 Refining the Four Directions' Qi, Waiting Only for the Five Qi to Form

At this moment, everyone must marvel at the Queen Mother of the West's skill; the fierce Kunpeng was easily subdued by her.

In that instant, the primordial world fell into complete silence, without a sound emerging.

Standing in the Kunlun Mountains, Luo Zu and the others were so surprised that their mouths were agape.

But they had no time to be surprised, because the situation in the heavens changed again.

A large, reddish-yellow sun suddenly emerged from the void.

The chirping of birds echoed through the sky.

A three-legged golden crow hovers in the midst of the sun, as if expounding all the principles of the sun in the human world.

"What a magnificent prince!"

Just then, a shout fell from the void, and a nine-fingered monster hand stretched across the sky and grabbed the three-legged golden crow.

The three-legged golden crow tried to escape, but it couldn't break through the void and couldn't get away.

"Is the Eastern Emperor actually the Golden Crow Crown Prince in disguise?" Luo Zu seemed to understand the reason why this great battle had come to this point.

Why doesn't the Eastern Emperor show up, and why doesn't the Heavenly Emperor take action?

They actually sent the Golden Crow Crown Prince to fight the Eastern King Duke.

Although the Golden Crow Crown Prince has considerable cultivation and has already broken through to the Great Luo realm, he is no longer a Taiyi Great Power and can now be called a Great Divine Power by the masses in the prehistoric world.

However, this was not enough to impress the Eastern King Duke. But the Golden Crow Crown Prince's momentum just now was not much less than that of the Great Luo Wuji. Perhaps he had obtained a bit of the Eastern Emperor's power, which enabled him to fight against the Eastern King Duke and even exude the power that only the Eastern Emperor possessed, almost corrupting the rogue Golden Immortals like Luo Zu.

But what is the purpose of the demon race sending the Golden Crow Crown Prince?

Is it to humiliate the Eastern King Duke? Or is there something else more important?

But the Eastern King was now furious, as the previous "evenly matched" situation had made him lose face.

Doesn't this mean that the Eastern King is far inferior to the Eastern Emperor?

In this way, how can the immortal sects maintain their foothold in the primordial world?

How can one remain calm with such powerful subordinates under their command?

Enraged, the Eastern King Duke took drastic measures, directly suppressing the life of the Golden Crow Prince, preventing him from escaping or returning at any other time.

Then, the Eastern King Duke used his great supernatural powers to tear apart the Nine Heavens and went directly to the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court.

The images captured by the Antarctic Immortal then disappeared.

"The Heavenly Court is no ordinary place, and I cannot see it even if I try to explore it," the Antarctic Immortal said helplessly.

He was merely a Taiyi, how could he possibly see through the Heavenly Court protected by its many heavenly rules?

Moreover, it is said that the Heavenly Court is suppressed by the Chaos Bell, which stands outside of time and space and is not in the same dimension as all living beings.

The Eastern King Duke went to the Heavenly Court, but the other great immortals were entangled by the great immortals of the demon and dragon races and were unable to follow him to the Heavenly Court.

At the same moment, the silver thread drawn by the Queen Mother of the West was also broken by the demon master Kunpeng.

However, instead of chasing after the Queen Mother of the West, Kunpeng exhaled a wisp of dark light, revealing a layer of void and exposing the Golden Crow Prince who was being suppressed inside.

Rumble.

The Kunpeng moved with incredible speed. Before the Queen Mother of the West could even react, it had vanished without a trace, shattering a path of spacetime. With its enormous size, it created a chaotic flow of spacetime fragments in the sky, affecting all the great Daos of the primordial world.

Even Luo Zu, the master of the Great Dao, felt that the Great Dao was in turmoil, and the principles were instantly chaotic and unclear, as if it would be destroyed in the next moment and its existence would cease to exist.

The other independent cultivators in Kunlun also had similar experiences.

Only the Antarctic Immortal remained calm and composed, maintaining his own stability and not being affected by this chaos in the Great Dao.

Regardless of whether it has any impact, the demon master Kunpeng's plan has already succeeded.

He broke through the formation that was suppressing the Golden Crow Prince and rescued him.

"Greetings, Demon Master." The Golden Crow Crown Prince left only these words before his figure vanished without a trace.

After doing all this, Kunpeng abandoned the magic of the Queen Mother of the West who had caught up with him, and went straight into the Northern Abyss, never to emerge again.

Subsequently, the images captured by the Antarctic Immortal became hazy and gray, and the view of the East China Sea was no longer visible.

"Is it over?" a fellow cultivator asked.

The war is certainly not over, but the part that they can see has ended.

The war has now escalated to a higher level.

Above the Heavenly Court.

As for the war in the East China Sea, it was clear that a powerful being did not want outsiders to see the situation there again, so the Antarctic Immortal could no longer observe it.

"It must have been the Queen Mother of the West who used her powers to break my magic," the Antarctic Immortal explained.

The scattered cultivators were even more surprised.

Since the Queen Mother of the West has already resorted to such methods, any attempt by them to watch the spectacle would inevitably displease her. Even if they were in Kunlun and had a sage backing them up, it wouldn't work.

Therefore, Luo Zu and the others did not discuss the battle they had just fought. They each found their own cave dwellings and went back to continue their secluded cultivation.

However, there were some advantages to watching this match.

That means they have gained a better understanding of the dangers below the mountain and will no longer have the idea of ​​going down.

In addition, they were quite worried about the Crane Boy and the other three fellow Daoists who were traveling with him.

After all, even the son of the Heavenly Emperor would be in danger of losing his life in this great calamity.

However, they still had many doubts in their hearts.

Why didn't the Heavenly Emperor and the Eastern Emperor show up? Instead, they sent the Golden Crow Crown Prince to fight the Eastern King Duke.

Could it be that they are testing the abilities of the Eastern King Duke?

But if that's really the case, it seems they haven't been able to test the strength of the Eastern King Duke.

However, these are not things that Luo Zu is considering. He has been in seclusion in Kunlun Mountain for 16,000 years, and has already mastered the first step of the Golden Immortal, the Five Qi Gathering at the Origin, by cultivating four of the five directions and five elements of Qi.

They are respectively the Qi of Eastern Wood, which was used to refine the Wood Azure Thunder.

The energy of metal from the west forged the light of the metal sword.

The fire energy of the south was refined into the Southern Bright Fire.

The mysterious energy of the northern Xuan Shui (a type of water) was refined into the Xuanming Divine Light.

The presence of these four directions and five elements of Qi, along with the supernatural powers that arise within them, greatly pleased Luo Zu.

However, the final result from the central Earth element remained elusive.

If successful, one can immediately achieve the Five Elements Gathering at the Origin.

At this moment, Luo Zu looked back on his days of cultivation in Kunlun Mountain and reminisced about his time of cultivation in the Golden Immortal Realm.

This takes several times longer than the time required to reach the Golden Immortal realm.

Just as he had predicted, the higher the cultivation level, the slower the cultivation speed became.

It took him nearly 20,000 years to complete just the first step of becoming a Golden Immortal, and he hadn't even mastered that first step yet. As for the second and third steps, it would probably take him more than 100,000 years.

But Luo Zu did not become timid because of this long period of time.

He suddenly turned around and discovered...

"I am now a qualified immortal."

Yes, he has already passed the test in terms of the word "immortal".

To live forever, to view time as flowing water, and to be indifferent to the passing years.

That's what "immortals" are like; that's just how "immortals" are.

Only mortals lament the fleeting nature of time.
