The Primordial Era: Starting from Being Forced to Become an Apprentice of the Three Pure Ones

Upon returning to Kunlun Mountain, Taibai did not waste any time but went directly back to Taibai Palace to enter seclusion.

This journey abroad has saved humanity from peril, witnessed the beginning of reincarnation, and personally drawn into the grand scheme of the primordial world.

What one sees, hears, feels, and understands all transforms into a profound foundation.

In addition, he received a great deal of merit from the Great Dao, which made his perception of the laws clear and transparent.

The merits of the Great Dao are far more precious than those of the Heavenly Dao.

Even if absorbed directly, it will not shake the foundation; on the contrary, it can help with cultivation.

This is the perfect time for him to go into seclusion and cultivate.

Taibai sat cross-legged on the cloud bed, surrounded by the Five Directions Flags and the Fire Spirit Orb, forming a flowing array that protected him in the center.

The merits of the Great Dao flowed between the laws and the Dao's rhythm, making the principles of the Five Elements readily accessible.

He does not deliberately favor any particular flag, nor does he focus solely on any one industry.

The power of the Five Elements flowed into his heart simultaneously, advancing in unison.

Under the continuous nurturing and catalysis of the power of merit, he gained a deeper understanding of the subtle balance and endless transformation between the five elements.

The inner world within his body, which grew stronger with cultivation, became increasingly stable, its boundaries subtly expanding, and its foundation deepening day by day.

……

Taibai's mind was completely absorbed in comprehending the laws of the Five Elements, and he completely forgot about the passage of time.

His seclusion lasted for thousands of years.

"Click...click..."

It was as if some invisible constraint within him had quietly shattered.

He silently stepped into the mid-stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

At the same time, his overall understanding of the Five Elements principle suddenly became clear, approaching the 30th level.

The five magical treasures surrounding him gradually faded in luster and slowly disappeared into his body.

The original lingering Xuanhuang merit energy had been mostly consumed, with the remaining part sinking into the depths of the primordial spirit.

Taibai slowly opened his eyes, a five-colored light flashing briefly in his pupils before returning to a gentle and calm state.

He gently exhaled a breath of stale air, his aura becoming more harmonious and restrained than before his seclusion, and his connection with heaven and earth became clearer and more acute.

Taibai let out a long sigh of relief, his face beaming with joy:

"At the mid-stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, I have also comprehended 30% of the Five Elements Laws, which is a significant step forward."

However, with chaos now erupting in the primordial world, it is certainly not the time for prolonged seclusion.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from the three palaces on the Sanqing Peak of Kunlun Mountain:

"The war between the Lich King and the Demon King is about to begin. Disciples are not permitted to leave Mount Kunlun unless absolutely necessary!"

As soon as the voice fell, a bright light flashed across the Three Pure Peaks, and the next moment all three streams of light flew towards the chaos.

Taibai stood quietly in front of the palace, gazing at the three streaks of light disappearing into the sky. After a moment of silence, he finally let out a soft sigh.

A storm is brewing, but the sage has already departed.

I wonder how long this tranquility of Kunlun Mountain can last.

Taibai saw things clearly. Even though the Wu and Yao races fought to the death, it was still a calamity within the realm of all living beings, and was not enough to attract the attention of a sage.

The Zhou Tian Star Array and the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Array are indeed incredibly powerful, capable of changing the landscape and even restraining and troubling the two Western Saints.

However, in the eyes of sages like the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa, such formations are ultimately the pinnacle of technique, not the subversion of the Dao, and cannot truly shake the dignity of sages.

All six sages acted, their gazes piercing through the chaos, but their true focus was only on Donghuang Zhong.

This treasure was transformed from the handle of Pangu's axe that created the world. It is ranked alongside the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner as one of the three great treasures of creation, possessing the supreme power to evolve time and space.

For a sage, a powerful innate treasure is enough to enhance their strength.

Even the two Western Saints, whose strength is generally considered to be the weakest among the Six Saints, wanted to obtain this treasure.

Although they have become saints, they are not like the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who is in harmony with the Dao.

A top-tier treasure is enough to give them more confidence and more options in future calamities and struggles.

However, the ending was completely unexpected by all the voyeurs.

In the end, the Eastern Emperor Bell mysteriously vanished without a trace in the center of the battle, right before everyone's eyes. No matter how the saints searched, they could not find a single trace of it.

Taibai pondered to himself that there was probably a deeper sense of apprehension behind this.

Perhaps, some unseen force or being does not wish to see the Three Treasures reunited and the Heaven-Opening Axe reappear in the world.

If such a forbidden object were to truly appear, its power might have already surpassed the realm of defying the heavens.

Even the stability of the Primordial Heavenly Dao itself could be disrupted or even damaged by its attack.

"Alas, the scheming among sages is ultimately no match for the changing nature of destiny."

It seems that the three teachers will likely return empty-handed from their cross-disciplinary journey, as the Eastern Emperor Bell ultimately does not belong to anyone.

But where did the Eastern Emperor Bell end up?

……

Tens of thousands of years ago, after the Demon Court's Slaughtering Sword was completed and the Witch Clan had perfected the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation to an unprecedented level, both clans began to be eager to try it out.

The Wu tribe also pushed the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation to an unprecedented level of perfection, and the two tribes began to be eager to try it out.

However, if the two races were to wage war in the primordial world, it would inevitably plunge all living beings into misery and suffering.

The people of both races will also suffer from the karmic consequences, which is not something either race wants to see.

Therefore, the two races decided to go to the Chaos Realm during the decisive battle.

In this way, one will not be eroded by karma, and will be able to completely eliminate the other party. Why not do it?

However, neither side expected that they each had a trump card up their sleeve.

No matter how hard these two races try to improve themselves, they can only perish together in the end.

Soon after, the Lich Wars began, following the predetermined course.

In the vast chaos, malevolent energy surged skyward first.

Although the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation of the Wu Clan was missing Houtu, the presence of Xing Tian meant that the last piece of the puzzle was barely complete.

The demon race camp also instantly formed the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array.

Moreover, the demon race has set up the Hunyuan Heluo Grand Formation. The two formations are superimposed and their energy is linked, making their power far greater than a simple sum of their individual strengths.

What's even more terrifying is that the Zhou Tian Star Array, which was improved by Donghuang Taiyi, is now exhibiting bizarre characteristics.

It not only frantically absorbed spiritual energy, but also absorbed the malevolent energy of the Dutian Divine Fiend Array.

As one side gains and the other loses, the illusory image of Pangu's true form, which the Wu Clan has condensed, begins to show signs of instability in its light.

"Brother, something's wrong! There's something strange about this demon race's formation! Not only is it devouring spiritual energy, it's even sucking away our Heavenly Divine Fiend Qi!"

Zhu Jiuyin was the first to notice the anomaly. In his eyes, which could see the flow of time, he saw the strange trajectory of the disappearing evil energy of his own side.

"That's right, brother, the malevolent energy of our formation is constantly weakening."

If this continues, we might die from exhaustion before we even manage to harm that scruffy bird.

"Shut up! What's the use of being anxious! Everyone be quiet and let your brother think of a solution!"

Dijiang Zuwu's face was solemn, and the power of space rippled slightly around him.

He also felt that targeted devouring power.
