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

Chapter 299 Annihilation with a Single Sword!

Although Dao Ancestor Hongjun was wary of Jiang Heng, it was only because Jiang Heng inherited the Dao lineage of Xuanhuang Venerable, not because Jiang Heng himself was particularly powerful.

Originally, Dao Ancestor Hongjun was filled with boundless anger and resentment, and now he was being mocked and despised by Jiang Heng.

Even a clay figure has a temper! What's more, Jiang Heng's cultivation is not even as good as Dao Ancestor Hongjun's, so what right does he have to mock him?

All the resentment and anger erupted completely at this moment. Dao Ancestor Hongjun wanted to kill Jiang Heng and tear him to pieces.

An incredibly terrifying power erupted instantly, and the Heavenly Dao once again condensed countless arms, engulfing the Chaos Sea and attacking Jiang Heng.

"Die!" Dao Ancestor Hongjun's furious voice rang out.

At this moment, even Houtu and the other ancestral witches, who had full confidence in Jiang Heng, couldn't help but show a hint of worry on their faces.

The power that Heaven is displaying at this moment is truly terrifying and boundless; it is undoubtedly a power that has surpassed the realm of Immortal Emperor.

Even the ancestral witch Houtu and the sage Taiqing had no chance of resisting such terrifying power.

It is no exaggeration to say that even a Celestial Emperor would likely only have one path to take in the face of the current Heavenly Dao: complete annihilation.

Although I have full confidence in Jiang Heng, can he really stand against such a terrifying Heavenly Dao given the strength he once possessed?

Just as the Sage Taiqing and the Ancestral Witch Houtu were extremely worried, Jiang Heng's expression did not change in the slightest.

Faced with the overwhelming arm, Jiang Heng raised his hand and a long sword appeared in his hand.

This is a magical treasure from the Xuanhuang Dao Palace. Its level is indeed quite high, even higher than that of a primordial treasure, and roughly equivalent to the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe.

Within the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, such magical treasures are not uncommon, though they are not considered top-tier treasures, but they are perfectly suited for Jiang Heng's current use.

Jiang Heng is currently only at the Immortal Emperor realm, so even if he had a more powerful magic weapon, he would find it difficult to unleash its true power.

This longsword is just right; not only is its level not too high, but Jiang Heng doesn't encounter much resistance when wielding it.

Moreover, Jiang Heng was about to use swordsmanship, and without a longsword in hand, its power would naturally be greatly reduced.

With his longsword in hand, facing the overwhelming arm that blotted out the sky, Jiang Heng's expression hardened, and he unleashed a sword strike that cleaved through the vast chaotic sea.

In an instant, boundless sword energy soared into the sky, shattering the vast chaos, breaking through all the heavens and spacetime, and coalescing into a colossal sword that reached the heavens.

In that instant, an indescribable yet terrifying power emerged, causing the entire Chaos Sea to tremble continuously.

Jiang Heng didn't actually use any special methods; he simply unleashed a single sword strike.

But this simple sword strike unleashed unimaginable power, because it contained the accumulation of Jiang Heng's knowledge over four hundred thousand years.

For four hundred thousand years within the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, Jiang Heng continuously comprehended the primordial imprint of the chaotic universe within the Tongtian Stele.

A full ten thousand primordial imprints of the chaotic universe—this is an unimaginable achievement, and naturally, it cannot be completely useless.

Even Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who had only comprehended three Chaos Universe Origin Imprints, was confident that he could roam freely across countless worlds because of them.

Having comprehended ten thousand primordial imprints of the chaotic universe, the strength that Jiang Heng could unleash was naturally incomparable to what it had been before.

The colossal sword that reached the heavens appeared in the chaos, instantly splitting the entire chaos in two, as did the countless arms formed by the Heavenly Dao.

But this was just the beginning. When Jiang Heng unleashed the full power of his sword, an incredible scene unfolded.

After the countless arms formed by the Heavenly Dao were cut in half, they instantly turned into ashes, leaving no trace whatsoever.

The terrifying power continued to spread, and the countless arms condensed by the Heavenly Dao vanished instantly, even the vast chaos ceased to exist.

Instead, a destructive force emerged, which was precisely the primordial imprint of the chaotic universe that Jiang Heng had comprehended.

According to the Venerable Chi Yuan of Xuanhuang, when Jiang Heng comprehends all the original imprints of the chaotic universe in the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, he will be qualified to comprehend the Law of Destruction.

The Law of Destruction is one of the fundamental forces that construct the supreme universe. It has far surpassed Jiang Heng's current level and possesses unimaginable power.

However, although Jiang Heng had comprehended ten thousand Chaotic Universe Origin Imprints, compared to the true Law of Destruction, this was naturally insignificant.

Moreover, because he had just received the inheritance from Venerable Chi Yuan of Xuanhuang, Jiang Heng hadn't even had time to practice Chi Yuan's signature technique, the "Xuanhuang Sword Art".

Even so, ten thousand primordial imprints of the chaotic universe were enough to imbue Jiang Heng's sword with a trace of the power of the law of destruction.

This mere trace of the power of the law of destruction could easily destroy not only the primordial world, but even the entire chaotic sea.

However, Jiang Heng's own cultivation level was too low, which limited the power of this sword strike, making it impossible to destroy the entire Chaos Sea.

But it was enough to deal with just one Heavenly Dao. With this sword strike, Jiang Heng was not only aiming to destroy the countless arms that the Heavenly Dao had condensed.

In just a fleeting moment, the countless arms of the Heavenly Dao vanished into thin air, while the colossal sword reaching to the heavens continued its advance.

There was no time for the Heavenly Dao to react; the colossal sword that reached the heavens had already cleaved through the vast universe and sliced ​​through the Heavenly Dao's body.

Without a sound, the enormous body of the Heavenly Dao collapsed and gradually dissipated into the chaos.

"How is this possible? How can someone at the Immortal Emperor realm unleash such terrifying power?"

When Tiandao was killed by Jiang Heng's sword, the power belonging to Dao Ancestor Hongjun within Tiandao's body was no longer supported and naturally dissipated.

Before the power of Dao Ancestor Hongjun dissipated, he only had time to leave behind this incredible exclamation.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun could see that the sword strike Jiang Heng had just unleashed was entirely his own power, and not due to any powerful magic weapon.

This is the most terrifying thing! The reason why Dao Ancestor Hongjun was wary of Jiang Heng was only because he was wary of the legacy left by Chi Yuan.

After all, Chi Yuan was a Venerable One in his lifetime, so it's only natural that he would leave behind some powerful magic weapon or some earth-shattering method.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Dao Ancestor Hongjun is now at the Sacrifice Dao Realm; in front of a Venerable One, the Sacrifice Dao Realm is nothing at all.

But Dao Ancestor Hongjun never imagined that Jiang Heng, who was clearly only at the Immortal Emperor realm, could actually kill the Heavenly Dao with a single sword strike.

It should be understood that when Dao Ancestor Hongjun condensed his own power into the Heavenly Dao's body, the Heavenly Dao had already surpassed the level of the Immortal Emperor.

Even though he hasn't fully reached the realm of sacrificial rites, calling him a half-step sacrificial rite is absolutely no problem.

But even with such formidable strength, he was killed by Jiang Heng with a single sword strike, which gives you an idea of ​​just how terrifying Jiang Heng's strength was.

"No! We must leave this world quickly, or things will change!"

On the desolate shores of Chaos, Dao Ancestor Hongjun gazed solemnly in the direction of the Primordial World, a hint of apprehension still lingering in his eyes.

Clearly, even Dao Ancestor Hongjun had not expected that Jiang Heng, who was merely at the Immortal Emperor realm, could already pose a threat to him.

The sword strike that just killed the Heavenly Dao also posed a great threat to Dao Ancestor Hongjun, and might even have injured him.

Furthermore, since Jiang Heng inherited the Dao lineage of Xuanhuang Venerable Chi Yuan, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had no idea what kind of trump cards Jiang Heng possessed.

If Jiang Heng were to come to his door, Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not know whether Jiang Heng could pose a threat to him, but he would not be able to harm Jiang Heng in the slightest.

After all, as long as Jiang Heng hides in the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, even if Dao Ancestor Hongjun has great abilities, he cannot do anything to Jiang Heng.

If Jiang Heng were to unleash some extraordinary means, even Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who had already entered the Sacrifice Dao Realm, would likely perish.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun naturally dared not gamble, nor did he want to. After pondering for a moment, Dao Ancestor Hongjun took a step forward and walked in a certain direction.

Meanwhile, outside the primordial world, the enormous body of the Heavenly Dao had completely vanished without a trace.

A deafening cheer erupted across the primordial world, as countless creatures embraced one another, weeping with joy.

Even powerful figures like Houtu Zuwu weren't much better off; they were still shaken by what they had just witnessed.

Just now, as the primordial world was about to be destroyed, the creatures of the primordial world seemed to have already smelled the breath of death.

It was Jiang Heng who stepped forward in time to turn the tide and save the primordial world from the crisis of destruction.

Even the mighty Heavenly Dao died at Jiang Heng's hands, so who else could threaten the primordial world?

Even though Dao Ancestor Hongjun still exists, no living being regards him as an invincible being.

All living beings believed that as long as Jiang Heng remained in the primordial world, the primordial world would inevitably prosper and become strong, and there would be no more crisis of destruction.

"That's great! Fortunately, Your Majesty, you returned in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable!" said the Supreme Saint, still shaken.

After slaying the Heavenly Dao, Jiang Heng had already put away the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, and Houtu Ancestral Witch and others naturally came to Jiang Heng's side.

Jiang Heng and Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, exchanged a glance. No words were needed; everything was understood without being said.

"I never expected that Dao Ancestor Hongjun would be so ruthless. Fortunately, I returned in time!" Jiang Heng said in a deep voice.

Jiang Heng truly hadn't expected that Dao Ancestor Hongjun would set his sights on the Primordial World, and even nearly cause its destruction.

"Hmph! Dao Ancestor Hongjun still harbors treacherous intentions towards the prehistoric world; keeping him alive will always be a scourge!" Tongtian Jiaozhu said in a deep voice.

After what just happened, everyone no longer considered Dao Ancestor Hongjun a threat, but they could not ignore him.

After all, Dao Ancestor Hongjun was in the shadows, while the primordial world was in the open. How can one guard against a thief for a thousand days if one is a thief for a thousand days?

If one is not careful and Dao Ancestor Hongjun finds an opportunity, it would not be difficult for him to destroy the prehistoric world.

"Don't worry! Dao Ancestor Hongjun will never have this opportunity again!" Jiang Heng said in a deep voice.

Jiang Heng naturally understood the seriousness of the situation and knew that as long as Dao Ancestor Hongjun existed, the prehistoric world would not be safe.

However, Jiang Heng was also well aware that, given Dao Ancestor Hongjun's cautious nature, he must have already become wary after witnessing what had just happened.

Based on Jiang Heng's understanding of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Dao Ancestor Hongjun is probably both shocked and somewhat fearful, and is likely preparing to flee.

"Does the Human Emperor know where Dao Ancestor Hongjun is right now?" The Sage of Taiqing asked solemnly.

The Sage Taiqing knew very well that if Dao Ancestor Hongjun had appeared in person, the primordial world would have been destroyed before Jiang Heng could even return.

Even under such circumstances, Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not appear, which shows how cautious he was.

Given Dao Ancestor Hongjun's strength and cautious nature, finding him would not be an easy task.

"Although I don't know where Dao Ancestor Hongjun is now, I know he must have gone back to a certain place!" Jiang Heng said with a smile.

Since they knew that Dao Ancestor Hongjun wanted to escape, leaving this world was the only option and the safest path.

After all, as long as Dao Ancestor Hongjun is still in this world, no matter how careful he is, there will be a day when Jiang Heng discovers him.

Moreover, isn't Dao Ancestor Hongjun afraid that after some time, Jiang Heng will also be able to break through his realm and enter the Sacrifice Dao Realm?

By then, Dao Ancestor Hongjun would have absolutely no advantage over Jiang Heng, and his demise would be his only fate.

Therefore, Dao Ancestor Hongjun will inevitably choose to leave this world and hide in the myriad worlds. How could Jiang Heng still find Dao Ancestor Hongjun?

In the past, Jiang Heng would not have known how Dao Ancestor Hongjun would leave this world, but from Chi Yuan's words, Jiang Heng learned of a path.

Within the Chaos Sea lies a void, which, according to Chi Yuan, leads to a forbidden zone within the Supreme World.

Through Yang Mei's words, Jiang Heng learned the secret of Dao Ancestor Hongjun: Dao Ancestor Hongjun was not actually a being born from the Chaos Sea, but came from the Void.

Based on what Chi Yuan said, it's not hard to see that Dao Ancestor Hongjun was probably injured in an accident and eventually fell into the Void.

After drifting in the void for a long time, Dao Ancestor Hongjun finally arrived at the Chaos Sea and entered the primordial world.

Since Dao Ancestor Hongjun knew that the Void Land led to the Supreme World, he would inevitably choose this path when leaving.

According to Chi Yuan, the Supreme World was the first universe to be born, the origin of all worlds, and is itself connected to all worlds.

Once you reach the Supreme World, it won't be difficult for Dao Ancestor Hongjun to go to any other world he wants.

"Human Emperor, are you preparing to settle things with Dao Ancestor Hongjun?" said the Sage Nuwa.

"We must settle this once and for all. I cannot rest easy until Dao Ancestor Hongjun is dead!" Jiang Heng said in a deep voice.

From the moment Dao Ancestor Hongjun wanted to destroy the primordial world, Jiang Heng had already resolved to kill Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Moreover, now that Dao Ancestor Hongjun has left, who knows if he will ever return to this world?

Jiang Heng could not stay in the prehistoric world forever. Only by killing Dao Ancestor Hongjun could Jiang Heng truly feel at ease.
