The Primordial War: The Symbol Emperor

Throughout the journey, Suzaku's smile never stopped.

Even Wei Chen's aging heart began to stir. Zhu Que was not only stunningly beautiful, but every smile and frown exuded elegance and composure.

With her noble and elegant demeanor, wearing a long dress with vibrant colors, she possesses an indescribable allure.

If he could, he would love to become her Daoist partner and together reach the pinnacle of the Dao.

Of course, he won't deliberately pursue it now; he'll let things take their course.

"Fellow Daoist Emperor Chen, ahead lies the capital of the ferocious beasts, home to eight beast kings and one beast emperor, the Hellfire Scythe Demon—"

Zhuque said with a solemn expression, "While we are not afraid in a one-on-one fight, we still have eight ferocious beast kings and countless ferocious beasts, at least hundreds of millions—"

Hundreds of millions of ferocious beasts... Wei Chen took a deep breath. How could they possibly fight this? The sheer number of them was terrifying.

At this point, one cannot simply rely on one's own strength to charge forward and fight. Each roar of a ferocious beast can shatter trillions upon trillions of mountains.

The roar of a million ferocious beasts had already seriously injured him; if it were hundreds of millions of ferocious beasts roaring—

Will it turn into dust? Or into powder? Or be assimilated into nothingness?

Wei Chen couldn't imagine what kind of outcome that would be.

At this moment, he was very glad to have joined the Vermilion Bird Clan. If he had wandered the prehistoric world alone, he might have been surrounded and killed by ferocious beasts one day, which would have been truly unjust.

He was very arrogant before, having obtained several treasures, and even the great boss Hongjun didn't take him seriously.

Where in the primordial wilderness can't one go?

Now that he has completely extinguished his arrogance, even if he sets up the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Formation, it will be trampled by the ferocious beasts. In the face of the absolutely ferocious beasts, no great formation can withstand their trampling.

"Let's see how things go first!"

Wei Chen didn't want to leave just like that. It would be a real shame to leave without taking one last look at such a magnificent and vast herd of ferocious beasts.

Moreover, he also had his own ideas. Although the roar of hundreds of millions of ferocious beasts was devastating, as long as he charged into the ferocious beast camp, he would not be afraid of this threat.

These ferocious beasts are like bombs. Once they charge into the camp, do you think they would dare to blow themselves up?

"Alright!" Zhuque nodded. As long as he concealed his aura, no matter how many ferocious beasts there were, they would not be able to detect him.

Of course, she was not afraid even if she was discovered. Her world-destroying black flames would kill anyone below the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, and severely injure even Taiyi Golden Immortals. It was extremely domineering, and no matter how many ferocious beasts there were, they could not stop her.

Furthermore, during this rapid journey, Zhuque realized that he had underestimated the power of the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler and the strength of Weichen.

She watched as Wei Chen stood high in the sky, the Primordial Measuring Ruler piercing through the void and instantly killing a ferocious beast at the Golden Immortal level.

This can no longer be described as having unfathomable power; it can be described as having heaven-defying power.

She coveted the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler immensely. If Wei Chen hadn't joined the Vermilion Bird Clan, she would have definitely mobilized a million Vermilion Birds to surround and kill him.

She believed she was no match for Wei Chen in a one-on-one fight. Of course, she wasn't afraid; she had her own trump cards. If it really came down to a fight to the death, it was hard to say who would live and who would die.

Every peerless master possesses an unwavering Dao heart, confident that they are no weaker than anyone else.

If you don't even have this much confidence, then you're not a peerless master.

After all, if you don't even have this much confidence, what makes you think you can compete with billions of innate gods?

Therefore, Suzaku was confident that she was no weaker than any innate deity, but she was not so arrogant as to look down on everyone.

…………

"Awooohoohoo--"

There are countless ferocious beasts here, the shortest of which are hundreds of feet tall, in groups of hundreds or tens of thousands.

They are wantonly ravaging the earth, snapping towering trees in half, wreaking havoc—

A colossal mountain reaching to the heavens was trampled and destroyed by millions, even tens of millions, of ferocious beasts, causing torrents of mud and rocks to fall from it.

There was an endless plain where countless ferocious beasts galloped. The earth trembled and hummed, churning up waves of mud.

The air was thick with malevolent energy, condensing into a black mist that obscured the entire sky.

The rampant destruction by ferocious beasts has left this place desolate.

"Roar! Bang bang bang!"

A ferocious beast, over two thousand feet long, with four python-like tails, no feet, six arms, and two heads, roared.

The fists, as large as mountains, pounded the earth, cracking it open into deep furrows.

"Roar--"

With a deafening roar, tens of thousands of ferocious beasts lined up in a row on the mountainside.

Each of these ferocious beasts is over two thousand feet tall, with only one head, eight legs, and a single horn on its enormous head.

This horn is over a hundred feet long, its cold light dazzling and its menacing aura fully revealed.

With a roar, ten thousand beasts charged toward a hill.

Rumble!

Rocks flew everywhere, and hills tumbled down.

hoo hoo hoo!

Below the mountain were hundreds of ferocious beasts. Seeing a mountain tens of millions of feet high falling down, they did not retreat at all, but rushed towards the mountain.

Bang bang bang!

The hill was broken, and mud and rocks flew everywhere.

hoo hoo hoo!

At the foot of the mountain, millions of ferocious beasts of various shapes and sizes formed a line, their ferocity immense, constantly pounding against the base of the mountain.

The colossal mountain was shaking and cracking, constantly dropping mud and rocks.

Here, hundreds of millions of ferocious beasts gallop and trample, ravaging and destroying the mountains, crushing and pulverizing everything in their path.

This is a paradise for ferocious beasts, where they roam freely, finding pleasure in destruction and devastation.

"Roar—" A deafening roar, like that of a tiger or a demon, echoed from the center of the plain, shaking the heavens.

"Oh no, retreat quickly—"

Zhuque cried out in alarm, transforming into her true form and swiftly fleeing the beast camp with Weichen.

It was as fast as teleportation, beyond description.

"Roar roar roar—"

Billions of ferocious beasts roared to the sky, ripples spreading across the void, and the heavens and earth wailed. The sky above shattered, revealing countless black dots.

Wei Chen broke out in a cold sweat, but fortunately Zhu Que reacted quickly and instantly carried him out of the sound wave range. Otherwise, even if he didn't die, his physical body would have been shattered.

"What's going on? Could it be that a ferocious beast has discovered us? That's impossible—"

Wei Chen asked Zhu Que, completely bewildered.

"The ferocious beast did not discover us; this is merely a habit of its. Every so often, it raises its head and roars."

Zhuque patiently explained to Wei Chen, who was born with incredible luck and boundless strength.

This is also why Zhuque was willing to bring Weichen to the ferocious beast camp; otherwise, as the head of her clan, how could she possibly take Weichen around everywhere?

"I see," Wei Chen said. "Then the ferocious beast should have discovered us by now. I wonder if it will come after us?"

"No," Zhuque affirmed. "We are not ordinary people. Although there are many ferocious beasts, they cannot stop us."

He paused for a moment and then continued, "We've gotten used to this kind of thing. Countless powerful beings often come to investigate the truth. At first, the ferocious beasts did chase after us, but they weren't good at speed and couldn't catch us at all, so they eventually gave up."

"Oh!" Wei Chen nodded. There were indeed many benefits to following an experienced person.

If someone who doesn't know the details rashly barges in, they might not even know how they died.

It seems that joining the Vermilion Bird Clan was indeed a wise choice.

"I sensed the fluctuations of treasures in the beast camp. They should be either high-grade or top-grade innate spiritual treasures," Wei Chen said.

"Indeed, but so what?" Suzaku.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Fellow Daoist, you don't mean to try and seize it by force, do you?"

"Why not?" Wei Chen retorted.

"This is the capital of ferocious beasts; we have no way to seize it," said Zhuque, puzzled. Weren't magical treasures supposed to be external objects? Why are we risking our lives to steal them now?

"Yes, I still have a trump card to play. As long as you go with me, I will give you everything we obtain without taking a single penny."

Wei Chen ignored Zhu Que's thoughts and continued speaking to himself.

He had his own plans. After battling a million ferocious beasts, he understood his weaknesses: a lack of combat experience. If it weren't for the Primordial Measuring Ruler, a supreme treasure, his combat power would definitely have been reduced to half.

Now that he has such a good opportunity, how could he miss it?

Upon hearing this, Suzaku looked shocked and confused. If he didn't want the treasure, why would he risk his life to steal it?

Puzzled, he asked, "If you don't want the treasure, why risk your life to steal it?"

Since her birth, she had never heard of such a primordial deity; truly a great anomaly in the primordial world.

"Hehe! I am a new emperor and lack combat experience. I hope you will be lenient with me, fellow Daoist." Wei Chen chuckled.

"This..." Zhuque was stunned, and even her noble and beautiful temperament changed.

Her expression shifted several times; she really wanted to agree to this request that offered her all the benefits.

But is the capital of the ferocious beasts so easy to conquer?

The Hellfire Scythe Demon Beast Emperor is a powerful being of the same level as her, along with hundreds of millions of ferocious beasts and thousands of ferocious beasts at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level.

If they dared to fight head-on, they would definitely be trampled to pieces by the ferocious beast. I don't know where Wei Chen got his confidence from.

At this moment, Zhuque thought that Weichen was either an idiot or a madman. He dared to fight such a powerful and terrifying horde of ferocious beasts, and wouldn't even take the treasures; she was speechless.

Wei Chen clearly knew that Zhu Que wouldn't agree without taking some measures.

"Is this spiritual treasure enough? I will take charge of slaying the Beast Emperor. I'm sure the other Beast Kings won't be too difficult for you, fellow Daoist."

Wei Chen took out the Thunder Punishment Pearl and chuckled.

“This…” Zhuque stared intently at the Thunder Punishment Pearl, a hint of red appearing in her large, dark, bright eyes.

Although the Thunder Punishment Pearl is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, its attack power is no less than that of an innate supreme treasure.

Unexpectedly, Wei Chen, having acquired the Primordial Measuring Ruler, also obtained the Thunder Punishment Pearl. Truly, he is blessed with great fortune and favored by Heaven and Earth.
