Primordial Era: Becoming the Great Emperor of Humanity from the Start

Chapter 297 The Crisis of Destruction!

Within the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, Jiang Heng became the personal disciple of Xuanhuang Venerable Chi Yuan, inheriting all the legacy left behind by the deceased Venerable.

This is an unparalleled opportunity for anyone, a chance to rise to the top in one step, its value is simply immeasurable.

The Xuanhuang Dao Palace alone is already a supreme treasure, containing various cultivation resources and magical artifacts that Chi Yuan possessed during his lifetime.

There are many magical treasures that surpass the innate supreme treasures, and various rare cultivation resources that Jiang Heng has never even heard of.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if the entire primordial world were combined, it would not amount to even a fraction of the wealth left behind by Chi Yuan.

Moreover, Chi Yuan's entire legacy is of immeasurable value; the "Xuanhuang Sword Technique" alone, which contains the law of destruction, is an unparalleled martial art.

However, compared to the various treasures left behind by Chi Yuan, what was more important to Jiang Heng was that he saw a broader horizon.

In Jiang Heng's original understanding, the realm above the Immortal Emperor was the Sacrifice Dao Realm, and the realm above the Sacrifice Dao Realm was beyond the Sacrifice Dao Realm.

However, Jiang Heng wasn't entirely clear on what realm lay beyond the Sacrifice Path, as the Desolate Heaven Emperor's experience wasn't entirely applicable to him.

But through the words of the Xuanhuang Venerable Chi Yuan, Jiang Heng not only saw a higher realm, but also witnessed a more vast world.

The Supreme World, the origin of countless worlds, the common destination of countless powerful beings in myriad worlds, holds infinite possibilities.

With Jiang Heng's current strength, although he is not at the very bottom in the Supreme World, he can at most be considered a powerful figure in his own right.

There are even higher realms waiting for Jiang Heng to climb, and a wider world waiting for him to experience.

What could be more exciting than this? For Jiang Heng, no matter what he achieves in the future, the journey itself is already worth looking forward to.

Putting aside his chaotic thoughts for the time being, after becoming Chi Yuan's personal disciple, the Xuanhuang Dao Palace had already recognized Jiang Heng as its master.

Jiang Heng wasn't really sure what level this magic weapon had reached; he couldn't even activate it in the slightest.

However, the power of the Xuanhuang Dao Palace itself is such that even if it were left unmoved, even a Celestial Emperor-level expert would find it difficult to shake it in the slightest.

Even a powerful expert at the Sacrifice Dao Realm, if they were to unleash a full-force attack on the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, would find it difficult to inflict the slightest damage.

Jiang Heng's cultivation level is still a bit low. There are many good things in the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, but Jiang Heng can't use many of them right now.

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Heng had already stored away the Xuanhuang Dao Palace. Then, Jiang Heng rushed towards the Primordial World at an extremely fast speed.

If we count to the last 100,000 years, it has been more than 400,000 years since we left the Crimson Wasteland, which is no short period of time.

Jiang Heng knew without guessing that Houtu Ancestral Witch and Taiqing Saint were probably very worried after such a long period of silence.

Just as Jiang Heng was heading towards the Primordial World, the Primordial World was facing a catastrophe.

As a terrifying aura appeared outside the primordial world, Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, and Taiqing Saint, among others, reacted instantly.

Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, once again joined the other Ancestral Witches and instantly set up the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, transforming into the true form of Pangu and wielding the Pangu Axe.

The Sage Taiqing also instantly condensed the power of the Heavenly Dao, and the strength he unleashed had already reached the level of an Immortal Emperor.

At the same time, all the saints in the primordial world gathered together, and the sight of more than two hundred saints gathered together was also incredibly spectacular.

Amidst the solemn expressions of Houtu and the others, a familiar figure appeared outside the primordial world—it was none other than the once perfect Heavenly Dao.

It still looked like a ferocious demon god, but the aura emanating from the Heavenly Dao was incredibly powerful at this moment.

In that battle, although the Heavenly Dao had reached perfection and its strength was comparable to that of a powerful Immortal Emperor, it was still inferior to Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, transformed into Pangu using the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, and was able to fight the Heavenly Dao to a standstill.

Furthermore, with the help of several other sages, Houtu Ancestral Witch eventually suppressed the Heavenly Dao, which is why Dao Ancestor Hongjun had to temporarily retreat.

Now, with the Houtu Witch Clan and the Taiqing Sage jointly overseeing the primordial world, they should theoretically be completely unafraid of the Heavenly Dao.

However, this time, the Heavenly Dao, after its appearance, displayed a strength that was even greater than that of the former Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Even with the combined efforts of Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, and Taiqing Saint, backed by the primordial world and supported by over two hundred other saints, they still felt immense pressure.

That terrifying aura, that immense power, was almost enough to drive people to despair. For Houtu and the other Ancestral Witches, it was an overwhelming force.

Houtu and the other Ancestral Witches were naturally unaware that Dao Ancestor Hongjun had broken through to the Sacrifice Dao Realm, and his strength had undergone earth-shattering changes.

However, because of his experience in the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, even though Dao Ancestor Hongjun had broken through his cultivation level, he was still very wary of Jiang Heng.

In fact, Dao Ancestor Hongjun felt a great threat from Jiang Heng, and even went so far as to distance himself from this world.

But Dao Ancestor Hongjun was naturally unwilling to leave like this, so he prepared to leave Jiang Heng with a great gift before leaving this world.

It's not surprising that the Heavenly Dao's strength has increased dramatically, because the Heavenly Dao possesses the power of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Although Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not appear and was at a great distance from the primordial world, he was still at the Sacrifice Dao Realm.

Even if a powerful expert at the Sacrifice Dao Realm is separated by a great distance, by concentrating their power on the Heavenly Dao, they can still cause the Heavenly Dao's strength to increase dramatically.

At this time, although the Heavenly Dao was still at the level of an Immortal Emperor, it had already stepped halfway into the Sacrifice Dao Realm, so its strength was considerable.

The assessment of Xuanhuang Dao Palace has ended, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun knows very well that Jiang Heng will soon return to the Primordial World.

Therefore, after arriving outside the primordial world, the Heavenly Dao did not hesitate at all and immediately unleashed its full power.

The Heavenly Dao roared, and purple light condensed into countless arms, which swept across the primordial world like a blot out the sun.

"The Heavenly Dao has actually appeared at this moment. I wonder what the situation is like now!" The Supreme Sage said solemnly.

Not only has the Heavenly Dao's strength increased dramatically, but it has also appeared outside the primordial world, which is naturally not good news for Taiqing and the others.

On the one hand, it is because the power of the Heavenly Dao has increased dramatically, which is undoubtedly a huge calamity for the entire prehistoric world.

On the other hand, the Heavenly Dao has appeared, but Jiang Heng has not yet appeared. Is Jiang Heng also in a dangerous situation at this time?

"There's no need to think about such things now. Let's block the Heavenly Dao first!" Houtu Ancestral Witch said in a deep voice.

How could Houtu, the ancestral witch, not care about Jiang Heng's situation? But she knew very well that now was not the time to think about such things.

The Heavenly Dao arrived with overwhelming force, unleashing such terrifying power that if it is not dealt with properly, the entire primordial world may be destroyed.

At this juncture, the more crucial matter is how to defy the will of Heaven. As for Jiang Heng, he can only consider that later.

The Sage Taiqing nodded. In such a critical moment, in the entire primordial world, only he and the Ancestral Witch Houtu were able to stand up and resist the Heavenly Dao.

As the Heavenly Dao condensed countless arms and enveloped the primordial world, the Ancestral Witch Houtu and the Sage Taiqing also unleashed their full power.

Houtu, the ancestral witch, transformed into Pangu, wielding the Heaven-Opening Axe, and gathered all her power to unleash a devastating attack that split the heavens and the earth.

With a single axe stroke, chaos is shattered! The power concentrated in this axe is so terrifying, it seems capable of splitting the primordial chaos and creating the world.

After all eleven Ancestral Witches attained sainthood, the power of the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation also increased significantly.

If Houtu, the ancestral witch who transformed into Pangu, were to face the once perfect Heavenly Dao, she could even defeat it single-handedly.

The Sage Taiqing instantly gathered the power of the Heavenly Dao, and the endless power of the rules of the entire primordial world condensed on the Sage Taiqing.

This time, the Sage of Taiqing became the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao, having already reached the realm of perfecting the Heavenly Dao.

Moreover, because the sages have been refining chaos over the years, the primordial world has grown much stronger than before.

A more powerful world origin and more complete world rules can naturally generate more powerful forces.

Although the Sage Taiqing himself had not yet reached the realm of Immortal Emperor, after condensing the power of the Heavenly Dao, he undoubtedly possessed the strength of an Immortal Emperor.

Behind Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, and Taiqing, the newly born saints in the primordial world, under the leadership of Tongtian Jiaozhu and Nuwa, unleashed their full power.

Compared to powerhouses at the level of Immortal Emperors, Saints are undoubtedly insignificant beings, and their strength is simply not on the same level.

Therefore, although these saints of the primordial world unleashed their full power, it was not directed against the Heavenly Dao.

They transformed their own power into the rules of Heaven, merging them into the Heavenly Dao, instantly making the Heavenly Dao even more powerful.

As a result, the power controlled by the Sage Taiqing was also enhanced, barely reaching the level of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun back then.

This is almost the limit of an Immortal Emperor. Even if he were to face the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the Taiqing Saint could still put up a fight.

Clearly, during these hundreds of thousands of years, Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, and Taiqing, the Sage, though presiding over the primordial world, never slackened in the slightest.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun has always been a great enemy of the prehistoric world. Faced with the threat of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Houtu Ancestral Witch and Taiqing Sage are also thinking about countermeasures.

After hundreds of thousands of years of effort, the power that Houtu Ancestral Witch and Taiqing Saint can unleash has significantly improved.

Despite the terrifying power unleashed by Houtu Ancestral Witch and Taiqing Saint, the Heavenly Dao remained completely unmoved.

Countless arms, glowing with purple light, had pierced through layers of time and space, descending upon the edge of the primordial world.

"Boom!"

When the three terrifying forces collided, a tremendous roar resounded throughout the Chaos Sea, and the vast primordial world began to shake continuously.

Throughout the entire primordial world, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the seas flowed backwards, one after another, as if the whole world was facing its end.

If it weren't for the intervention of Heaven to protect the Primordial World, it would probably have been destroyed in the collision just now.

This was merely the aftermath of the battle; the power of Heaven had not truly descended upon the primordial world, but was blocked by the Ancestral Witch Houtu and the Sage Taiqing.

However, the situation of Hou Yu, Zu Wu, and Taiqing Shengren was not optimistic at this time, because the countless arms of the Heavenly Dao still existed.

Houtu, the ancestral witch, unleashed a devastating attack that cleaved the heavens and the earth, but instead of severing the arm of the Heavenly Dao, she herself was forced to retreat several steps.

The enormous body of Pangu was trembling continuously, as if it had just endured a tremendous force and had not yet recovered.

The Supreme Saint was not much better off. After colliding with the Heavenly Dao, he also retreated several steps, almost reaching the primordial world.

On the contrary, the Heavenly Dao seemed to be unaffected, with countless arms still waving and enveloping the primordial world.

Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, and Taiqing, the Sage, exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of horror in each other's eyes.

It was just a single collision, but it was enough for Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the Taiqing Saint to understand just how terrifying the power of the Heavenly Dao truly was.

It is no exaggeration to say that the power of the Heavenly Dao has reached an extremely terrifying level, far surpassing that of Houtu Ancestral Witch and Taiqing Saint.

Both the Sage Taiqing and the Ancestral Witch Houtu were well aware of what would happen once the arm of the Heavenly Dao fell into the primordial world.

Heaven and earth cracked, the world collapsed, countless lives perished, and the entire primordial world may cease to exist.

The Sage Taiqing and the Ancestral Witch Houtu were right; the Dao Ancestor Hongjun's move this time was precisely to completely destroy the primordial world.

For the Dao Ancestor Hongjun in the past, the value of the Primordial World was immeasurable, but after his breakthrough in cultivation, the value of the Primordial World has been greatly reduced.

Moreover, Dao Ancestor Hongjun was well aware that after obtaining the inheritance of the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, he no longer had the opportunity to compete with Jiang Heng for the Primordial World.

Since he couldn't have it himself, he might as well destroy the primordial world. How could Dao Ancestor Hongjun possibly leave the primordial world to Jiang Heng?

Moreover, as long as the primordial world is destroyed and Houtu and the other ancestors are all killed, Dao Ancestor Hongjun can also get some relief.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun really wanted to see what kind of expression Jiang Heng would have when he returned to the Primordial World and saw Houtu and the other Ancestral Witches perish and the Primordial World destroyed.

Therefore, after the attack, Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not give Taiqing Saint and Houtu Ancestral Witch much time to breathe.

Faced with the overwhelming arm, the Sage of Taiqing and the Ancestral Witch Houtu exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with determination and resolve.

Even if they fought with all their might, even if they fought to the death, how could Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, and Taiqing, the Sage, just stand by and watch the primordial world be destroyed?

Without holding back, Houtu Ancestral Witch and Taiqing Saint began to burn everything they had, unleashing all that they could.

Behind Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, and Taiqing, the saints in the primordial world did not hesitate and merged into the Heavenly Dao.

Everyone knew very well that there was no room for luck in this battle; it was either victory or destruction along with the primordial world.

Terrifying forces clashed once again, one side comprised numerous powerful beings from the primordial world fighting with all their might, and the other side represented the terrifying power of the Heavenly Dao.

A tremendous roar once again echoed through the Chaos Sea, and at that moment, Jiang Heng also sensed this enormous commotion.
