Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 62, Section 61: Visions for the Future, the Demon-Summoning Banner Stirs
After finishing his cultivation, Ji Yuan's figure became solid again.

A black light flickered in and out of the chaotic light of Taiyi within the Lingtai.

Just now, he glimpsed a corner of the Heavenly Dao in the darkness and gained many insights. His primordial spirit and magical power officially entered the threshold of Quasi-Saint.

That is, he was at the early stage of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm. If he had used a magic weapon to connect with the Heavenly Dao just now, he might have already severed one of his corpses and made further progress in his magical power.

However, he never intended to take the path of severing the three corpses.

The three corpses are divided into the good corpse, the evil corpse, and the ego corpse. However, it is not simply about cutting off all kinds of thoughts and extinguishing one's nature. Rather, it is about cutting off all kinds of distracting thoughts and attachments, and realizing one's true self.

With each severance of a corpse, the quality of magical power is improved to a certain extent.

Ultimately, the three corpses merged into one, and he attained the position of a saint.

To prove one's Dao through force means to break through shackles with a powerful physical body, ultimate magical power, and the strongest understanding of the Dao, ultimately becoming a sage.

Proving one's path through force is the most difficult, but also the strongest, and it is dominant at every stage.

The most difficult of these is to comprehend the Great Dao. The concept of enlightenment is extremely mysterious. If you understand it, you understand it; if you don't understand it, you don't understand it.

However, Ji Yuan has the Record of Mythical Beasts of the Mountains and Seas, which can be called a tool for comprehending the Great Dao. If he doesn't try to prove the Dao with his strength, wouldn't he have lived in vain?
After experiencing the changes in the magical power and the Great Dao within his body, Ji Yuan smiled knowingly.

"The Great Way has been achieved! The Great Way has been achieved!"

Only then did he realize the power of the Primordial Golden Immortal. Although it did not represent a complete qualitative change, it was still far superior to the Great Luo Golden Immortal.

"That Ghost Chariot, a mid-stage Golden Immortal of the Primordial Chaos, has been unable to defeat me for so long. He must have seen the Taiji Diagram of Xuandu and noticed that I have many magical treasures. He probably guessed that we are disciples of a sage, so he dared not use his full strength."

Ji Yuan shook his head. The matter was over, and he wouldn't dwell on it anymore.

He summoned the Record of Mythical Beasts from the Mountains and Seas, glanced at the illustration, and saw a mythical beast with a dragon's head and a fish's body leaping onto it.

"Is this a Chiwen?"

Chiwen is one of the nine sons of the dragon.

Ji Yuan's thoughts began to wander.

If the four fierce beasts gathered together obtained the Great Dao of Annihilation, it means that if all the strange beasts with combined names in the Record of Strange Beasts of the Mountains and Seas were gathered together, another Great Dao would evolve.

It's important to know that the Classic of Mountains and Seas contains more than just the Four Fiends; there are also the Four Divine Beasts, the Five Plagues, the Four Evil Insects, the Nine Sons, and so on.

If you collect them all, I wonder what it would look like.

After thinking for a while, Ji Yuan threw himself back into cultivation; the calamity befell the human race was not yet over.

...............

Buzhou Mountain.

Countless demons and witches are fighting each other.

The drums beat loudly, and the shouts of battle shook the heavens.

Every second, tens of thousands of liches and demons die.

In an instant, blood flowed like a river, and a murderous aura filled the air.

Among them, the Heavenly Witch Da Yi was the most powerful; with every punch and kick, countless demons perished.

Having broken through adversity and risen from the ashes, he seemed even stronger than before.

High above the nine heavens, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, along with many powerful demons, confronted the ten Ancestral Witches.

Xihe stared in shock at Da Yi on the ground.

"Why aren't you dead yet?"

Donghuang was also quite surprised at this moment. He clearly hadn't found any chance of Da Yi surviving when he analyzed time and space, so why...?

Dijiang noticed what they were looking at.

He began to mock:

"You have to use your brain to do anything."

"you!"

The demon saint Feilian opened his mouth to refute, but was stopped by Dijun.

He gave Feilian a wink, and Feilian could only retreat. Dijun didn't want to fight the Witch Clan right now; the scene of the Dao Ancestor calling a halt was still vivid in his mind. He would never go all out unless he was confident.

Once the human race has collected enough souls and forged the Witch-Slaying Sword, the outcome will be decided.

This was merely a normal clash between the Wu and Yao races. A group of Yao were sent to the human race, but the brainless Wu race didn't even notice.

Thinking of this, Di Jun silently glanced at Zhu Jiuyin.

If we were to say who he most wanted to kill among the Wu tribe, it would undoubtedly be Zhu Jiuyin. His methods of deduction and calculation were far superior to what they were a few decades ago, and he had now firmly surpassed Fuxi.

With Zhu Jiuyin's calculations and deductions, they have successively disrupted many of the demon race's plans and killed several Great Luo demons. If they were to go directly to the human race, Zhu Jiuyin would probably discover something else.

Di Jun's gaze was completely undisguised, and Zhu Jiuyin naturally sensed it.

Just then, Dijiang transmitted his voice to him:
"Second brother, what do you think Di Jun is planning? It's been several years and he hasn't made a move yet."

Zhu Jiuyin shook his head. He didn't understand either. Although a few years was meaningless to them, it was still extremely strange that they hadn't fought after meeting for so long.

However, we will not act unless the enemy moves; the Wu tribe can no longer act recklessly as before.

And so they remained locked in a standoff for centuries.

At this moment, the strange movement coming from the Demon-Summoning Banner stirred Emperor Jun's mind, and he probed into it with his primordial spirit.

"Why is this happening?"

Within the Demon-Summoning Banner, the true spirit light representing the Great Luo Golden Immortals has dissipated by thirty-six times, and the true spirit light of two more Demon Saints has also dissipated.

"They're just a bunch of humans, why would something like this happen?"

The two quasi-saints he sent, along with thirty-six Great Luo demons, couldn't even defeat a single emerging race.

Although the Supreme Being established a religion among humans, all indications suggest that he will not interfere with the life and death of the human race, as long as the human race is not completely wiped out.

He seemed to have benefited more from the human race's educational efforts.

Di Jun was truly baffled and transmitted his voice to Donghuang Taiyi:
"Taiyi, the two demon saints and the Great Luo I sent to the human race are all dead."

Upon hearing this, Donghuang Taiyi was startled, but his expression remained unchanged. He transmitted his voice to Dijun:
"Didn't Kunpeng go too?"

Di Jun then suddenly remembered that Kunpeng had also gone along, so he searched for a trace of Kunpeng's true spirit in the Demon Summoning Banner.

The light of Kunpeng's true spirit continued to flicker, clearly indicating that it was injured.

Di Jun immediately told Donghuang Taiyi about the strange phenomenon in the Demon-Summoning Banner.

Donghuang Taiyi was getting impatient. Kunpeng was one of the few quasi-saint level powerhouses in the prehistoric world. If it weren't for him and his brother forcing him with force, Kunpeng would never have joined the demon race.

Few in the primordial world could injure him, not to mention his speed was arguably the fastest in the entire primordial world, so why...?

So he transmitted his voice to Di Jun:
"Brother, let's go. We'll take the human souls as quickly as possible. The witch clan shouldn't be able to react in time."

Di Jun responded silently.

He felt a pang of regret; if he had known he would have to take such a risk, he wouldn't have sent the demons.

The two demon saints, especially the demon saint Qin Yuan, have connections with several primordial beings.

It was precisely because Qin Yuan had some connections that Di Jun assigned her to this cushy job.

But there's no other way now, so we have to...

"Golden Flame of the Great Sun!"

Suddenly, Di Jun roared, and boundless divine light condensed into a brilliant golden flame, its intense heat seemingly capable of scorching through the universe.

The golden flames crashed straight down on the ancestral witches.

"Di Jun, you're playing dirty tricks!"

Zhu Rong roared, his hands moving swiftly, unleashing a divine fire from the heavens that clashed with the golden flames.

The two fires vanished without a trace.

"Boom!"

The Chaos Bell hummed deeply.
