Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 30. Thor vs. Two Demons

Flying over the South China Sea, looking at the surging waves, Ji Yuan sighed with emotion.

"The once dominant phoenix of the primordial world has also fallen into great silence."

The Great Silence is not death, but for a being like Yuan Feng, it is even more painful than death.

Attaining the Great Luo Dao Fruit allows one to reserve a chance to return to the past in endless time and space.

The death of Da Luo was nothing more than the true spirit falling into an endless slumber, waiting to be awakened by the pull of great cause and effect.

But the Great Silence is different.

Great stillness is the state of emptiness and stillness at the origin of all things.

Those who are immersed in great stillness are not bound by time and space, nor are they entangled in cause and effect.

In other words, the Great Silence is a cage created by the Heavenly Dao, and Yuan Feng is trapped in it; in a sense, she is already "dead."

Unless there is a tremendous karmic pull and Heaven is willing to release her, she will never have the chance to return.

Yuan Feng's physical body became a tool of the Heavenly Dao, mechanically suppressing the immortal volcano.

This is also why Zhuque wanted Ji Yuan to bring Kong Xuan out.

After the Great Silence, it was no longer Yuan Feng who controlled Yuan Feng's physical body, but the Heavenly Dao!

To avoid danger, it was natural to take Kong Xuan out of the immortal volcano.

For the noble Yuanfeng, this punishment was worse than death, but since it had caused the destruction of the primordial world, it had to swallow the bitter fruit.

After traveling for many years, Ji Yuan deeply understood the impartiality of Heaven's way.

Doing things that benefit the primordial world brings merit, while doing things that are detrimental brings karma.

However, considering the great calamity that would follow, Ji Yuan felt doubtful again.

After the Lich Wars, humanity became the dominant force in the world.

But if Heaven's way is truly impartial, how could it designate a single race as the protagonist of Heaven and Earth?

It can't be because humans reproduce faster, can it?

If Heaven's way is truly impartial, then all living beings should coexist harmoniously.

Ji Yuan was completely baffled.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration.

"The change in the Heavenly Dao occurred after Hongjun merged with the Dao."

"What was the purpose of Hongjun's merging with the Dao?"

"In order to repair the loopholes in the Heavenly Dao."

As we all know, when you fix one vulnerability, you are very likely to create a new one.

"Could it be that Hongjun solved one loophole by merging with the Dao, only to create another?"

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

Shaking his head, Ji Yuan shook off these distracting thoughts.

"Why worry about so much? I am a human, and it would be best if Heaven favored the human race."

"Let's hurry to Buzhou Mountain; there's a great opportunity there."

After acquiring the ability to control the order of time, Ji Yuan's understanding of the Great Dao of Time steadily increased.

The advancement of the Great Dao of Time also enhanced his deductive abilities, and this time he deduced that there was an opportunity in Buzhou Mountain that was extremely suitable for him.

Just as Ji Yuan was making his way, war broke out again in the world.

……

The junction of Buzhou Mountain and Kunlun Mountain.

"Thor, join my demon race! Why waste your divine power in this small thunder pool?"

Ji Meng, who had lost an arm, was shouting towards a pool of lightning.

As soon as the words fell, a deep blue dragon head emerged from the Thunder Pool, looking at Ji Meng coldly and saying:

"I'm quite happy in this little restricted area. I'm free and at ease, at least I don't have to run around like some people who can't be free."

Upon hearing this, Ji Meng's eyes immediately filled with bloodshot veins, but he still suppressed his anger and said:
"Thor, join the demon race. Once we defeat the witch race and unify the primordial world, we will enjoy boundless fortune and our cultivation will surely reach a higher level."

Thor narrowed his eyes and gave Ji Meng a cold glance:
"I'm perfectly fine on my own in Leichi. Joining the demon race is out of the question."

Thor was tireless in his explanation. He had been invited by the Ancestral Dragon to join the Dragon Clan during the Dragon-Han period, but he refused and was severely injured by the Ancestral Dragon. He had not yet fully recovered.

He hadn't even slept for a few eons when another demon invited him. He clearly only wanted to sleep in the Thunder Pool and practice his thunder magic. Ji Meng, of course, was unaware of what the Thunder God was thinking. Seeing that he had been rejected time and again, he was also annoyed.

He angrily said, "If you don't join the demon race, don't blame me for using force."

Ji Meng didn't really want to do this arduous task, but he had no choice because a bit of his true spirit was in the Demon-Summoning Banner.

Thor was extremely displeased upon hearing this, for he was born to uphold the Way of Thunder and was born with the power of thunder.

Thunder is inherently violent, and Thor could no longer suppress his temper, so he immediately started fighting.

"Take this thunderbolt!"

A bolt of divine lightning erupted from Bing Fire, and before Ji Meng could react, he was instantly engulfed by the lightning.

"what!"

A flash of lightning revealed Ji Meng, whose body was charred black, with a few drops of blood spilling from his chest.

The piercing pain and the unbearable tingling sensation intertwined in Ji Meng's body.

He shouted:
"Thor!"

It then transformed into its true form, becoming a one-armed black dragon.

Without further ado, the black dragon that Ji Meng had transformed into roared and flew toward the Thunder God.

The two dragons immediately engaged in battle.

Suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder roared in the valley, accompanied by wind and rain.

It must be said that Ji Meng is very strong, but he was defeated in a sorry state last time when he encountered powerful beings like Yinglong and Zhulong.

However, the Thunder God wields the power of thunder and controls the innate thunder pool. Even though his old injuries have not healed, he is still not someone that Ji Meng can deal with.

"Thunder! Thunder! Thunder!"

"Be struck by a thousand bolts of lightning!"

With a furious roar from Thor.

Several bolts of divine lightning flew out from the Thunder Pool.

Yi Wood Divine Thunder, Bing Fire Divine Thunder, Soul-Destroying Yin Thunder, God-Extinguishing Yang Thunder...

Almost all the famous divine lightning bolts of the primordial world struck Ji Meng.

Ji Meng's smooth dragon body instantly turned charred black, dragon scales scattered and flew everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of meat.

Ji Meng let out a series of mournful howls, then raised his dragon head and roared.

Soon, a ripple came from the void.

A loud voice rang out:
"Ji Meng, I'm here to help you!"

A beast with a human face and a lion's body, its entire body covered in snow, strode over.

It was none other than Bai Ze, the strategist of the demon race.

His two horns on his head glowed slightly, and a beam of emerald green light shone on Ji Meng, whose injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing that reinforcements had arrived, Thor scoffed, "So this is the demon race, who call themselves the number one race in the primordial world?"

"Forcing others to join your camp, that's really domineering!"

"If you can't beat someone one-on-one, you call for backup. How impressive!"

"But do you think the two of you can handle me?"

Thor roared, his wild and unrestrained expression fully revealed on the dragon's head.

"I didn't stay on Buzhou Mountain for so many years for nothing!"

"Dutian Shen Lei!"

The appearance of the Heavenly Thunder, hailed as the origin of thunder, immediately put immense pressure on Bai Ze and Ji Meng.

Bai Ze activated the Great Dao, and a green barrier enveloped the two of them. However, as the Heavenly Thunder intensified, their barrier began to crumble inch by inch.

After all, this is an enhanced version of divine lightning unleashed by a quasi-saint using the authority of thunder.

Bai Ze was filled with regret. If the Heavenly Emperor and the Eastern Emperor hadn't been confronting the Witch Clan, there would have been no need for him, a mere strategist, to step in.

Seeing that the barrier was about to collapse, Bai Ze let out a helpless roar: "Donghuang!"

"Boom!"

The world was silent, save for the long, drawn-out tolling of the bells.
