"I've been waiting for you to show up!"

Cao Ya had been keeping an eye on things. After the Ghost Spirit Mother was suppressed by the Guide and taken away by the White Lotus Child, she didn't rush to appear.

Firstly, the White Lotus Boy had not yet returned to the Western Sect's mountain gate, and there were plenty of opportunities to strike along the way.

Secondly, the two leaders of the Western Sect are currently traveling east to participate in the Great War of Saints. Furthermore, the Western Sect is not yet strong and has few members. Moreover, Mount Ling is in the Heavenly Realm, not on the Primordial Continent. Even with experts like the Medicine Buddha at the peak of the Quasi-Saint level, they are confident that they can take advantage of the situation and rescue the Holy Mother of Ghost Spirit before the White Lotus Child returns to the Western Sect.

The White Lotus Child is only a Great Luo Immortal; his strength is passable, but not enough to withstand Cao Ya.

Even the Medicine Master Wang Fo and others could hardly have predicted that Cao Ya would make his move at this time.

Without being prepared and losing the initiative, how could Cao Ya's plan not succeed?

Besides, he wasn't going to kill the White Lotus Child. He had no enmity with the Western Sect, so why would he want to completely offend the Primordial Saint?

He believed that neither the Holy Mother of Ghosts nor the Guide of the Way or the Cundi of the Way would particularly value her.

Besides, if one is to repay a debt of gratitude, taking risks is only to be expected.

Of course, if given a choice, Cao Ya would still want to be absolutely sure and ideally let someone else take the blame for the biggest mistake!

Mosquito Taoist is undoubtedly the best candidate!

Even after eating the giant tortoise, it went to the Western Sect and gnawed off three of the twelve lotus petals!

"If Mosquito Daoist doesn't appear on this timeline, I will intervene to save the White Lotus Child when he arrives at the Western Sect's mountain gate. If he does appear... I will ambush and kill him in the end!"

As expected, the Mosquito Taoist appeared out of nowhere, accompanied by a buzzing swarm of insects, and launched a deadly attack!

Cao Ya immediately understood that his time to reveal himself had come!

"Keeper of the Stars? That's quite a meal." A strong appetite emanated from within the insect cloud.

"Oh, you want to eat me too?" Cao Ya raised an eyebrow. According to his divine sense, the Mosquito Daoist was not only the first mosquito in ancient times, but also the ancestor of a race, and was also related to one of the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods who died.

In the chaotic era, three thousand demon gods roamed freely. Later, when Pangu separated heaven and earth, all the demon gods who blocked his way were killed and merged into the newborn universe, perfecting heaven and earth, and the laws and rules woven the universe.

In the end, Pangu died from exhaustion, but a small number of chaotic demons survived, such as Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Demon Ancestor Luohou, and the Great God Yangmei.

Most of the Chaos Gods perished, with only a portion remaining as weapons or corpses in the primordial world.

In the ancient, prehistoric, and ancient times, these wondrous objects were almost entirely consumed.

However, it is not surprising that Mosquito Taoist has a unique background, originating from ancient times, and has great opportunities.

"I can feel it. If I eat you, I can try to prove the weak Hunyuan Dao." The thirsty voice echoed in the sky. Mosquito Daoist's attention was no longer on the giant tortoise, but locked onto Cao Ya.

The White Lotus Boy, using his magical powers to support the giant tortoise, was on the verge of tears.

Master, you didn't tell me that this mission would involve encountering two peak Quasi-Saints!

Moreover, they are ferocious demons like Mosquito Taoist and monsters like Ketu Star Lord!

A hint of worry and apology appeared in the giant tortoise's eyes.

She also knew why the Star Lord of Ketu, "Cao Ya," had come to this place.

She was grateful for the advice she received on Turtle Spirit Island back then, but no matter how many times she had to do it again, she would never regret it!

But at this moment, the Holy Mother of Ghosts has been suppressed, and even if she wanted to speak to Cao Ya and ask him to leave so that he wouldn't have to save her, she couldn't do it.

"That's a real shame. Killing you won't help my path to becoming a weak Mixed Yuan cultivator..."

Cao Ya sighed. His path, though partly involving devouring, was one of his own.

But that's drawing upon the essence of heaven and earth, the energy of the universe!

Furthermore, mosquitoes don't taste good no matter how they're cooked—fried, roasted, boiled, or steamed.

"Buzz." The insect cloud trembled, its ferocious aura dissipating, followed by countless insect shadows that flashed across the sky and swarmed towards Cao Ya.

Cao Ya also swayed slightly, revealing his "three heads and six arms". He formed a sword finger with one hand and used the [Dao Spreads Throughout the Universe] technique. In an instant, countless sword lights filled the universe!

"Swoosh!!!" The sword light and the insect shadows clashed fiercely.

The insect shadows were ferocious; with a single peck of its mandibles, it would even devour and swallow sword energy!

However, the Dao Transmitted Throughout the Universe is too special, and Cao Ya's own sword intent is also extremely powerful. Although Mosquito Daoist is also a top-tier six-star expert and a powerful being at the eighth or ninth level of Quasi-Saint, he still has no power to swallow his sword light.

Seeing this, the Mosquito Taoist flapped his wings, emitting a special wave that shook the space!

"The Way of Void? I'm probably more familiar with it than you are!" Cao Ya grinned. Among the many systems, he himself specializes in space, and there are many more that have secondary cultivation, including himself!

His head was chanting incantations, and the fluctuations in the void became increasingly pronounced, enveloping all directions.

In the end, a large portion of the insect shadows collapsed, and the Mosquito Taoist was defeated on the Void Path.

"As expected of a 'Primordial Dao Seed,' such talent and comprehension truly make him a super prodigy!"

"But the more you act like this, the more I want to eat you up!"

"Refining you would not only make you a weak Primordial Chaos cultivator, but also potentially a Primordial Chaos Saint!"

Mosquito Taoist's voice was extremely passionate, and he began to take any action, regardless of the cost!

Immediately, the insect cloud spread out, and countless insect shadows appeared from all directions, surrounding Cao Ya!

Each insect shadow seemed to exist between reality and illusion.

Both of their mouthparts were incredibly sharp, comparable to divine swords and immortal blades, capable of piercing through the world!

As Bai Lian Tongzi swept his divine sense over the demon, he couldn't help but shudder. Even some quasi-saints within the Western Sect, subdued by the sect leader, did not possess such a ferocious spirit!

But whether it was Mosquito Taoist or Cao Ya, they both, without prior agreement, targeted White Lotus Boy during their battle!

The message was very clear: if you dare to run, we'll kill you!

Although he is a child of a saint, there are quite a few primordial beings in the [Primordial] Universe, numbering in the double digits.

Hunyuan was feared by all sorts of powerful beings, but not by their disciples and disciples.

In particular, Mosquito Taoist has a way out; he can always seek refuge with Demon Ancestor Rahu.

Cao Ya has the identity of "Ketu Star Lord" and belongs to the Heavenly Court, so he can be considered to have the backing of the Dao Ancestor.

If either of them had the intention to kill, they could have smashed the White Lotus Child to pieces on the spot!

You should know that Mosquito Daoist dares to target even a direct disciple of Hunyuan like the Holy Mother of Ghost Spirit, so why would he be afraid of a Hunyuan Daoist boy?

However, the White Lotus Child is only a Great Luo Immortal, not yet a Quasi-Saint, and his true form is not a flesh-and-blood being, so he cannot be regarded by Mosquito Daoist.

In reality, how many disciples and attendants of Hunyuan have died over the millions of years?

"Buddha, Bodhisattva, save me!" The White Lotus Child had no choice but to use his divine sense to seek help from the Western Sect.

Medicine Buddha and the others realized that they could not sit idly by. Because of the instructions given by the two leaders before their departure, someone had to stay and guard the mountain gate, and they could not all go out. So they simply sent out Medicine Buddha alone.

Both being at the peak of Quasi-Saint level, Medicine Master Buddha was not afraid of Mosquito Taoist or Ketu Star Lord.

"We need to speed things up! I don't want to have too much contact with Western religions, lest they target me!"

Cao Ya pondered to himself, and used all kinds of magical power. In an instant, all sorts of profound techniques were unleashed, surging and boundless!

The bright light engulfed the insect cloud, and its cyclical expansion caused countless insect shadows to perish!

Sword energy, lightning, flames, and other attacks all caused damage, overwhelming Mosquito Taoist!

Finally, Cao Ya's own energy, like a starry sky, suddenly collapsed inward, with immense gravity, enough to tear apart the laws of the Great Dao!

"Cosmic phenomena-related supernatural powers?" Mosquito Daoist was surprised and doubtful. How could Ketu Star Lord have cultivated so many laws to such an extremely profound level?

“This is my path,” Cao Ya simply replied. In fact, this was also his reflection on embracing all sorts of extraordinary systems.

After reaching the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, in order to prove himself as a Great Luo Immortal, he still practiced the "Complete Version of the One Yuan Golden Elixir" perfected by Grand Master Xuandu, and also obtained the "Ghost Spirit Immortal Method" for reference. However, he had already begun to ponder his own path.

Later, ideas gradually emerged and were slowly perfected, resulting in the "Cosmic Alchemy Classic"!

The universe is the elixir, and the stars are the dantian, encompassing all things, including the tangible and the intangible, all gathered within it!

This represents an in-depth attempt to explore how so many individuals within the system space, each following a different system, can truly integrate various magical powers.

Metal, Wood, Earth, Fire, Water, Wind, Light, Darkness, Lightning, Reincarnation, Space, Time...

No matter how many laws there are, they can be easily absorbed by any universe.

Although different universes share the same laws, they are not always consistent. Vastly different star systems are influenced by celestial bodies such as black holes and supermassive stars. Even within the same star system, the environment on different planets varies greatly depending on their distance from the star!

Moreover, by dividing the vacuum zone, no light can escape!

The universe is boundless; what is observable is vast and immense, and what is yet to be observed is even more expansive, which is perfectly normal.

"Swoosh!!" Cao Ya himself seemed to transform into a giant source of energy, capable of twisting all paths and shattering the laws!

Even the insect cloud couldn't withstand it and began to disintegrate one after another, finally causing the Mosquito Taoist to feel fear.

"Hoo." Mosquito Daoist wanted to escape, but under the effect of "Giant Source", his escape speed was not enough to get rid of it. Moreover, the laws of the void were ineffective in this area.

All these mysteries surged and converged into the depths of the "Giant Source," increasing its mass even further, swallowing the heavens and earth!

If a weak Hunyuan arrives, and the Great Dao is solidified, it will easily counter Cao Ya.

But it's clear that Mosquito Daoist, at the peak of Quasi-Saint level, couldn't do it.

"Ah!!" With a roar, the insect cloud dissipated, and the Mosquito Daoist was utterly destroyed, leaving only his proboscis. Cao Ya did not destroy it, casually collecting the spoils of war.

After killing Mosquito Taoist, Cao Ya dispersed his cultivation technique, leaving only a portion of its profound mysteries remaining.

With a "whoosh," he took a step forward and arrived beside the White Lotus Child. With a light flick of his finger, the White Lotus Child's magic power completely collapsed, and the bound giant tortoise fell into his powerful hand.

Cao Ya glanced at the trembling White Lotus Child, and then at the Medicine Buddha, who was unable to move due to the broken spatial laws and had to fly to the horizon. Cao Ya smiled and then left in the opposite direction.

Soon, the Medicine Buddha landed, watching Cao Ya leave without stopping him.

The defeat and death of Mosquito Taoist, his divine sense, observing from afar, possessed a kind of awareness.

"A Quasi-Saint is extremely powerful! I'm afraid he could even put up a fight against a weak Primordial Chaos cultivator, and even if he were to lose, it wouldn't be an instant kill!"

The Medicine Buddha exclaimed, "Lord Ketu is indeed an extraordinary genius!"

Immediately afterwards, he took the White Lotus Boy and returned to the Western Sect.

On the other hand, they rescued the Holy Mother of Ghosts, but unfortunately, the seal of the Guide Daoist, though set up casually, was still of extremely high quality, basically at the level of weak Hunyuan.

It's not that Cao Ya can't crack it, but it will be a long and arduous process that will take a lot of time.

If the Guide Daoist used his unique magic... unless another Primordial Chaos Realm expert intervenes, he will never be able to undo it in his lifetime!

"Let's try this thing." Cao Ya suddenly had a brilliant idea and used the sharp mouthparts left behind by the Mosquito Taoist after his death. It has to be said that this thing was indeed unstoppable. If Cao Ya hadn't been careful to keep his distance when fighting the Mosquito Taoist, his body would not have been able to withstand it!

Of course, it's unrealistic to think that this would break the Guide's spell.

It only accelerated the progress to a certain extent.

Soon, the Holy Mother of Ghosts was able to speak, but she still couldn't move.

"Thank you, Lord Ketu." The Holy Mother of Ghosts expressed her gratitude. Who could have imagined that the transmission of her skills in the past would yield such abundant "fruits"?

"The debts are settled." Cao Ya smiled slightly, still using his mouthparts to break the spell.

However, at this very moment, the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation" in Tongguan changed.

One after another, the immortals of the Jie Sect died, and even the Tongtian Sect Leader himself was in a sorry state under the siege of the Four Sages.

On the other hand, the Chan sect also suffered some casualties, though the overall number was still very small.

It was precisely because he restricted the Tongtian Sect Leader, preventing him from rescuing the disciples of the Jie Sect, that the Guide Daoist was also restricted in return. In addition, he did not anticipate the Mosquito Daoist's sudden appearance.

“When the great calamity begins, the secrets of heaven are in chaos, and even quasi-saints cannot calculate it clearly.” The Guide Daoist shook his head.

He showed no particular attitude towards Jidu Xingjun, who killed Mosquito Daoist and rescued Ghost Spirit Mother.

Furthermore, the Guide Daoist had a vague feeling that Ketu Star Lord's actions had actually helped the Western Sect recover a great loss!

Naturally, he had no intention of pursuing the matter further.

Ordinary people fear the consequences, while bodhisattvas fear the causes.

Ideally, one should avoid both cause and effect.

Meanwhile, in the center, the Tongtian Sect Leader, his Taoist robes disheveled, was happy that the Ghost Spirit Mother had survived the ordeal and praised Jidu Star Lord as a man of honor and loyalty. However, his situation and the state of the Jie Sect were becoming increasingly dire!

"Long-eared Immortal Dingguang, quickly fetch the Six Soul Banner!" the Tongtian Sect Leader transmitted his voice swiftly.

However, the Tongtian Sect Leader clearly miscalculated. Chang Er Dingguang Xian suddenly had a dark glint in his eyes, put away the Six Soul Banner, and lightly walked out of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.

No matter what quasi-saints from the Chan or Jie sects they were, even those who directly inherited magic from the Hunyuan realm, they could not touch him.

"Hmm?" Even the Supreme Lord of Morality, the Primordial Lord of Heaven, the Guide of the Way, and the Cundi Daoist were slightly surprised by this scene.

Then, Chang Er Ding Guang Xian arrived outside the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation" and bowed slightly to Tong Tian Jiao Zhu.

Then, he raised his head, his eyes filled with a dark, eerie light.

“Lingbao Tianzun, I will accept your ‘Six Soul Banner’.”

"This kind of chaotic spiritual treasure is exactly what we Primordial Chaos cultivators desperately need!"

A faint smile graced the face of the long-eared Dingguangxian.

"It's you! The Eight-Eared, Eight-Armed Chaos Demon Rabbit!" The Tongtian Sect Leader's gaze was icy cold.

The other four saints also frowned.

In the distance, Cao Ya and the Ghostly Mother, who were also watching the battle, were both suddenly enlightened.

"So it was this Hunyuan!" Cao Ya murmured.

The eight-eared, eight-armed Chaos Demon Rabbit is not a primordial creature, but one of the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods!

He is also one of the very few survivors among the Chaos Gods after Pangu created the world!
