The Primordial War: The Symbol Emperor

"I, the Heaven-Splitting Rhinoceros, leader of the Wild Bull Clan, beseech the Great Dao to oversee me—"

"I, the Demon Ape, lead the Demon Ape clan. May the Great Dao bear witness—"

"I, having slain the Qiong, establish (the Qiong King's Court) and vow to protect all the beasts of this primordial wilderness. May the Great Dao bear witness—"

Three pillars of merit fell, and now the primordial Heavenly Dao is hidden from the world, with an aura of calamity permeating heaven and earth. The ferocious beasts are thriving, protected by the Great Dao of Chaos.

Wei Chen stood atop the mountain, gazing into the distance, lost in thought.

These ferocious beasts were likely chaotic beasts, slain by Pangu, and filled with boundless hatred, they rampaged and destroyed the primordial world.

Pangu killed the chaotic beasts without cause, and they became mortal enemies. This karma was punished in the prehistoric world.

"That must be it, otherwise the Heavenly Dao wouldn't stand idly by if the ferocious beasts wanted to destroy the primordial world!" Wei Chen muttered to himself.

He drew the Primordial Measuring Ruler, his fighting spirit blazing: "Let your blood forge the unparalleled glory of my great Emperor Chen!"

He comprehended three great supernatural powers: to break all laws with a single foot, to draw rivers and mountains with a single foot, and to define the boundaries of a square or circle with a single foot. Each of these powers possessed unfathomable abilities, making him confident that he was invincible among his peers.

As they flew, they would strike down any ferocious beasts they encountered with a foot's width of air. They flew for over a hundred years, slaying countless ferocious beasts below the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

A thousand-zhang ferocious beast is a manifestation of the Golden Immortal realm. Below that, a major realm lower, the beast is a hundred zhang shorter; above that, a major realm higher, the beast is three thousand zhang taller. The ferocious beast of a Great Luo Golden Immortal is thirty thousand zhang tall.

Wei Chen possessed a refined yet fierce demeanor, his killing intent solidifying into a tangible form. He had earned a fearsome reputation in a corner of the southern wilderness, sweeping away ferocious beasts along the way, all the way to the royal court of the ferocious beasts.

…………

Wei Chen stood in mid-air, looking down at the ferocious beasts below with a solemn expression. Among them, three were at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, six were at the early or mid-stages, and there were countless Golden Immortals.

Each of the primordial beasts exuded a terrifying aura. Some had one leg, some had four legs, some had eight legs, and some even had a hundred legs! Their bodies were incredibly diverse, with some having one to nine heads, and some even having one head in the front and one in the back.

These ferocious beasts, hundreds of feet tall, are no shorter than the mountains on Earth. There are millions of them here. They are densely packed together, their malevolent aura soaring to the sky, condensing into endless black light that envelops the area, their ferocity terrifying.

"Roar!" The three ferocious beasts, each over three thousand feet tall, roared, as if they were transmitting information or preparing to charge.

Millions of ferocious beasts stirred, their hooves pounding the mountains, their malevolent aura surging forth, threatening to shatter the earth and break through space itself. The earth trembled and cracked, unable to withstand the beasts' hooves.

Each ferocious beast's eyes were filled with crimson light, tinged with wisps of black glint—savage, tyrannical, vicious, and brutal.

The black light formed from malevolent energy churned and churned in the sky, unleashing a devastating force capable of shattering the earth and smashing through everything, causing the space to hum.

The trees within a radius of thousands of miles trembled under the weight of this ferocious power, and the earth itself could not withstand its power, trembling and sending down torrents of mud and rocks.

Holding the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, Wei Chen's clothes fluttered in the wind. At this moment, he had an urge to turn around and run away. He was also terrified and his soul trembled with unease.

Although he considered himself invincible, this was not a one-on-one duel; it was a battle against millions of ferocious beasts. Their murderous aura alone made him tremble with fear, and the sheer number of them was terrifying.

If he dares to confront it head-on, he will surely die. Even if he sets up the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Grand Formation, it will be crushed by this powerful and ferocious beast.

All his methods were utterly ineffective against millions of ferocious beasts, like an egg hitting a rock, and he was ultimately crushed by them.

But deep down he didn't want to leave; he wanted to conquer the ferocious beasts and hone his supernatural powers and techniques.

Of course, he had the confidence to face all of this alone. His Self-Cultivation Technique had reached the second level of perfection, and even a Great Luo Golden Immortal at perfection couldn't defeat him in one move.

If he couldn't defeat a million ferocious beasts, surely he could escape? With this thought in mind, he gritted his teeth and stayed.

The ferocious beasts reached a consensus, all raising their heads to face Wei Chen and roaring, "Roar!"

"Bang bang bang!" The mountain shattered, the giant tree turned into countless dust, the void hummed, and a layer of water ripples appeared.

Wei Chen was forced back hundreds of miles, his face slightly pale, a single thought flashing through his mind: "Escape—"

At that moment, he understood a principle: that there is strength in numbers.

If one day you lead a large group of people and find that your strength is not enough, it proves that you don't have enough people.

"唳——"

A phoenix cry resounded through the heavens, but upon closer inspection, it didn't seem like it.

Wei Chen looked up at the sky, where a dark cloud approached from afar—that was—

Wei Chen was terrified. The black cloud, like a falling meteor, carried boundless, world-destroying black flames as it hurtled towards the horde of ferocious beasts.

"Boom!" Like a scene of world destruction, boundless black flames raged, instantly reaping tens of thousands of ferocious beasts.

"Awooo—" The ferocious beasts scattered, letting out mournful howls.

The ferocious beasts struck by the world-destroying black flames turned to ashes, and the malevolent energy in the void retreated, accompanied by crackling sounds.

"Screech!" The Vermilion Bird, carrying boundless black flames, charged towards the ferocious beasts. Wherever it passed, ashes were left behind, and in the blink of an eye, it slaughtered tens of thousands of ferocious beasts.

"Roar!" The three beast kings joined forces to attack the Vermilion Bird.

One was an eighteen-year-old demonic ape wielding eighteen long staffs, with eight eyes on each of its four sides. Its beastly body, over three thousand feet long, unleashed a dense, impenetrable barrage of staff shadows.

There was another ferocious beast with a head at both the front and back, eight legs, a relatively long body, and a small node between its four legs, one side green and the other blue.

It was incredibly fast, moving back and forth like a shadow, charging towards the Vermilion Bird.

The last one resembled a rhinoceros, with four legs and three horns on its head forming a sharp, pointed triangle. Its mane was black and white, and its tail was hundreds of feet long, like a python, covered with shiny scales.

It was not afraid of the world-destroying black flames, but it still charged recklessly without regard for death.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!" Countless ferocious beasts at the Golden Immortal level shattered the void. Even if the world-destroying black flames burned them to ashes, they would still charge towards the Vermilion Bird!

"Screech—" The Vermilion Bird spread its wings, which were tens of thousands of feet long, carrying world-destroying black flames, like a black cloud, swirling in a beautiful arc.

"Boom boom boom!"

One black sphere after another crashed into the ferocious beast, burning it to ashes and causing the void to tremble.

The ferocious beasts charged wildly and fearlessly, filling the void with phantom images of their attacks.

The world-destroying black flames at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level are so powerful that even Daluo Golden Immortals must retreat and dare not confront their sharpness, for even a trace of them can incinerate an immortal's body.

Even if Wei Chen's Self-Crossing Technique reaches the second level, a Great Luo Golden Immortal cannot destroy it in one go. If he gets hit by the World-Destroying Black Flame, he will be severely injured even if he doesn't die.

It is utterly domineering and tyrannical, capable of burning anything and fearless of all laws and supernatural powers—

"Screech—" The Vermilion Bird, with its rich combat experience, dodged the charging bull and unleashed a torrent of world-destroying black flames. Wave after wave of these flames, like raging tides, burned the ferocious beasts, pulverizing some of the Golden Immortal-level beasts that charged forward.
