"Who?" Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, and Tang Seng all felt a jolt in their hearts and summoned their respective spiritual treasures. Divine light surged and intertwined to form a strange net of Taoist charm.
In the land of creation, even the weakest beings are at the peak of Quasi-Saint level!
If it's not a living being... then it's the Dao traces left by various powerful figures, which are equally terrifying!
Neither of these should be underestimated! Any negligence could lead to serious consequences!
We cannot let our guard down just because Sun Wukong and Cao Ya are both there.
They also had their own pride, and even though they were weaker, they didn't want to be a burden to those two!
They had to concentrate fully in order to minimize the burden on Cao Cao and Sun Quan!
"It's...him!!"
Sun Wukong and Cao Ya, on the other hand, had a clear sense of awareness and remained much calmer.
There's no way around it; even a peak Quasi-Saint of the Ninth Heaven is ultimately no match for a Saint!
Although Cao Ya is only at the weak Saint realm, his combat power is already infinitely close to that of a true Primordial Chaos!
"The Monkey King, Ketu Star Lord, Golden Cicada, Crimson Pearl Fairy, Cold Fragrance Goddess, Heavenly Wounded Star, Heavenly Lone Star..."
Accompanied by leisurely words, a figure with white hair and a white beard appeared.
The man wore a blue Taoist robe, his hair was completely white, but his face was ruddy and showed no signs of aging or wrinkles.
His eyebrows were extremely long, hanging down to his waist, and were completely white, without any hint of darkness.
However, this person's aura was unfathomable, and even Sun Wukong and Cao Ya had difficulty pinpointing it accurately.
Without a doubt, he is an unparalleled Primordial Saint!
"The Great God Yangmei!!!" The seven recognized the newcomer's identity. With such distinctive features, there was no one else but the Great God Yangmei.
"It seems that the Great God Yangmei is probably similar to the Three Pure Ones and the Two Elders, all at the limit of the middle level of the Seven Stars, just one step away from the high level of the Seven Stars," Cao Ya thought to himself.
The Seven Stars Advanced level is extremely rare and very difficult to achieve in any universe!
In fact, those at the initial level of the Seven Stars are all giants in their respective universes.
The Great God Yangmei was one of the surviving Chaos Gods who never reincarnated.
He is hailed as the strongest being in the void realm throughout the entire history of the primordial world!
Legend has it that the true form of the God of Raising Eyebrows is a hollow willow tree.
"Both are divine tree roots born from chaos, but the Chaos Divine Tree seems to be slightly stronger!"
Cao Ya then realized how terrifying the Chaos Divine Tree was.
No wonder that divine tree never ventured into the primordial universe, but only dwelled in chaos.
The Great God Yangmei gazed at the distant imprint of the Chaos Divine Tree, sighed twice, and said:
“Brother Divine Tree, you are the most composed. The only time I remember you taking action was during the creation of the world, when the Great Dao was moved and you were forced to fight against the Great God Pangu.”
Lu Zhishen asked in surprise, "During the Chaos Era, you never fought against any other demon gods?"
It would not be surprising if the Chaos Tree had not engaged in any battles with powerful beings since the creation of the world.
After all, the Chaos Tree resides outside the universe, does not vie for a Heavenly Dao position, and has no fundamental conflict with various powerful figures. Why would anyone offend such a super Chaos Tree for no reason?!
In the chaotic era, many demons and gods wandered in the void and primordial chaos, seeking the Great Dao and the path of sainthood. How could they not have conflicts with others and then fight each other?
“Brother Divine Tree is very steady and never seeks help from outside sources,” said the Great God with raised eyebrows with a smile. “This brother has never interfered with the treasures we competed for in the past.”
"Even we don't really understand Brother Shenshu's methods."
"The only one who has a clear understanding, besides himself, is the Great God Pangu."
"Unfortunately, the great god Pangu has been extinct for countless years."
As he spoke, the great god Yangmei sighed with emotion.
The great god Pangu reached the pinnacle of sainthood as early as the Chaos Era, attempting to surpass it...
The creation of heaven and earth and the evolution of the primordial world were the explorations of the great god Pangu. However, the interference of countless great paths attracted demon gods to block the way, ultimately leading to failure!
Of course, the primordial universe, thanks to the painstaking efforts of the great god Pangu, successfully evolved.
Even the surviving demons generally fled into the primordial universe and settled there.
This is much more interesting than staying in the depths of chaos.
Only a very few beings, such as the Chaos Divine Tree, can endure countless eras of desolation without wavering or changing their Dao heart!
Demons, past and present, have always interacted with their like-minded companions, and even fought each other!
"Lu Da, if you want to eat the fruit of Brother Divine Tree... it all depends on whether you can catch his eye." The Great God Yangmei chuckled, and without any noticeable fluctuation in space, he vanished.
"The Great God Yangmei's manipulation of the void is unprecedented and unlikely to be surpassed in the future."
Cao Ya was amazed. He had created the "Cosmic Alchemy Classic" and perfected it to this extent. He had also deeply understood the laws of time and space. Therefore, he could barely see a trace of the great god Yang Mei's magic. But it was precisely because of this that he felt even more awe and reverence!
“The pinnacle of the second level of the Holy Realm…” Sun Wukong murmured.
"Perhaps, if the Great God Yangmei is moved by this journey, he will have an epiphany and immediately advance to the strongest level of the Saintly Path!" Tang Seng said.
“We don’t seek the third level of the Saintly Path, and we don’t even dare to dream of the Great Saintly Path for the time being… As long as we can become weak saints, that will be enough to satisfy us!” Wu Song said.
"Mm." Both Daiyu and Baochai nodded gently.
In this way, the Dream of the Red Chamber Cave and the Water Margin Cave can be considered as secure as Mount Tai.
It's not that they all underestimate themselves; it's just that the difficulty of becoming a saint is unimaginable!
When I attain the weak Primordial Realm and reach the limit of this realm... then I'll consider the issue of becoming a saint!
“The remaining traces of the Chaos Divine Tree can still threaten us…” Cao Ya shook his head.
Even a tiny bit of something revealed between the fingers of someone at this level could crush anyone below the Saint Realm!
The saying "below the sage, all are ants" is indeed true.
Even a weak sage seems inadequate.
"The fruit of the Chaos Divine Tree..." Lu Zhishen scoffed. What merit did he possess to be favored by the Chaos Divine Tree?
As for the great god Yangmei... he was a hollow willow tree, so naturally he bore no fruit.
“Let’s go around this place!” Cao Ya said. Even the Great God Yangmei did not directly confront the mark of the Chaos Divine Tree, let alone the seven of them.
The six people had no objection to this.
"Buzz." Cao Ya raised his hand, and spatial magic enveloped the group, teleporting them away.
After leaving the imprint of the Chaos Tree, the group of seven traveled several light-years, only to encounter a strange law that permeated all directions, rendering their Void Shift impossible.
Even the space itself was quite stable, so much so that the seven people's escape speed was restricted, unlike their incredible speed in the Three Realms!
"Waaah..." Suddenly, a sob echoed in the ears of the seven people.
A wisp of gray mist spread out, revealing a hazy, indistinct scene, like an altar, worshipping an unknown entity.
"Watch out! Star Lord, let's go around this place!" Sun Wukong was on guard, his fiery eyes watching out for any potential danger.
"This is the great divine power of a Saint Realm Demon God!" Cao Ya exclaimed in alarm, realizing the terrifying nature of the gray mist.
If that were all, with his and Sun Wukong's magical powers, they would have nothing to fear.
But for some unknown reason, a strange influence permeated the area, causing even that great supernatural power to mutate in a way that was chilling.
“It must be the resentment of the deceased!” Sun Wukong said.
"The demon god of the sacred realm, is this his burial place?" Xue Baochai asked, looking around.
"No!" Sun Wukong shook his head and said, "I, Old Sun, have not sensed any corpse energy deep within the gray fog."
"Furthermore, if it were truly a sacred corpse lying here, those veteran saints with abundant intelligence and well-informed connections would surely have come here!"
"The remains of a saint... in some respects, are even more valuable than a first-class spiritual treasure!"
The group nodded in agreement. First-class spiritual treasures, inscribed with holy patterns, were highly sought after, but holy corpses were the rarest of all, being the true manifestation of the holy path!
"Huh?" Cao Ya and Sun Wukong suddenly narrowed their eyes.
Then, the other five people also made their own discoveries.
"Whoosh." From the depths of the gray fog, a blurry figure appeared.
"That's... the Chaos Thousand-Tentacle Octopus?!" Sun Wukong raised an eyebrow, chuckled, and said, "This guy actually wants to devour the gray mist here and forcibly comprehend the great divine power of another Saint Realm Demon God!"
Cao Ya smiled and said, "He might achieve his goal this time, but it certainly won't be easy!"
As he spoke, Cao Ya flew out, holding the Xuanyuan Sword, aimed at the Chaos Thousand-Tentacled Octopus, and slashed out with his sword!
This chaotic demon god is an enemy of humanity, and has committed numerous atrocities.
Even if the Thousand-Tent Octopus is extremely powerful, Cao Ya could not possibly kill it if he waited for an opportunity.
There might be some obstacles, making them reconsider their actions, and it won't be so easy to achieve their goals, even if they do.
"Swoosh." Cao Ya's swordsmanship was extremely sharp. This move even activated the "Slaying the Dao to See Me," which was the sword technique of the Dao Venerable in the "Supreme Being of an Era" universe.
With a casual gesture, the Xuanyuan Sword slashed out, and in an instant, boundless sword light rose up from all directions, pointing directly at the Chaos Thousand-Tentacled Octopus!
Even the constantly wailing gray fog seemed to be infected, undergoing new mutations.
"What profound swordsmanship!" The group watched as the Chaos Thousand-Tent Octopus roared.
"Lord Ketu, you're courting death!" The Chaos Thousand-Tent Octopus, with its countless tentacles, kept waving, annihilating the sword light, but the abnormality of the gray mist was giving him a real headache.
"Chaotic Thousand-Tent Octopus, you can digest this slowly." Cao Ya laughed, then with a flick of his Void Dao, he and the others quickly disappeared into the distance.
When the giant octopus burst out, the group of seven had already vanished.
No matter how powerful he was at the second level of Hunyuan, he could not cross the vast expanse of time and space to strike the group of seven!
Moreover, the Chaos Thousand-Tent Octopus was unwilling to abandon the gray mist in order to hunt down Cao Ya and the others.
"If I could obtain the Gray Mist and have it enhance my supernatural powers... that would be an effect greater than the sum of its parts!" The Chaos Thousand-Touch Octopus was envious, but after glancing at the Gray Mist, which had been provoked by the swordsmanship of the Star Lord Jidu, it couldn't help but start cursing again.
"Don't let me catch you!"
In the end, the giant octopus stretched out its thousands of tentacles and disappeared into the gray mist, extending in all directions. It gradually mastered the mysterious gray mist, making the Chaotic Thousand-Tentacled Octopus also more sinister.
On the other side, the group of seven left, and when they talked about the Chaos Thousand-Tentacled Octopus and the Gray Mist, they all expressed some regret.
They are not strong enough; otherwise, if they joined forces, they would have surely been able to kill the giant octopus!
However, the Chaos Thousand-Tent Octopus represents the second level of the Sacred Path, and its essence is far too profound.
"Oh no!" At that moment, Cao Ya's expression changed, and he quickly canceled the Void Dao magic power.
The seven-person group materialized, only to find themselves enveloped in a stream of light.
"Swoosh!" The light was dazzling, the white light covered the sky, and it was also extremely sharp, capable of piercing through spiritual treasures!
"The Great Dao Shatters the Void..." Sun Wukong swung his golden cudgel, shattering the surrounding flowing light.
"The legendary great Dao echoes, causing spatial decay and creating a special perilous situation?" Tang Seng, Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, Lin Daiyu, and Xue Baochai all held their breath.
The Great Dao Shattering Void Flow is a calamity that can cut through spiritual treasures and sever the bodies of quasi-saints!
Any spell from the Void Path cannot be used freely near the Shattered Void Flow.
You're lucky if you don't die from the backlash on the spot!
"Cough cough." Cao Ya couldn't help but cough, as streams of light were actually flowing through his body, attacking his internal organs.
Fortunately, Cao Ya's body-refining technique was also very powerful. Combined with the mysteries of the "Cosmic Elixir Scripture," the black hole swallowed everything but crushed the flowing light, preventing it from continuing its rampage.
"It seems that we can only fly this distance," Cao Ya said helplessly.
"It's alright!" Lin Daiyu said gently, "Anyway, we have plenty of time."
"It's a pity that none of the strange phenomena we've encountered along the way are suitable for us," Tang Sanzang sighed.
Even at the peak of Quasi-Saint level, he's still a bit lacking; he needs the protection of Wukong and Jidu Xingjun.
If they find the right opportunity, achieve a breakthrough, and reach the level of a weak sage...
That would not only greatly reduce the pressure on Cao Ya and Sun Wukong, but also enhance the strength of the entire seven-person team!
“These things can’t be rushed. The land of creation spans billions of light-years. Who knows how many traces of divine powers, the remains of saints and weak saints are inside…” Cao Ya said.
"As we venture deeper into the land, we're bound to encounter rare and precious treasures that suit our needs," Sun Wukong said.
Upon hearing this, Daiyu, Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, and Tang Seng exchanged glances and nodded silently, determined to break through their current realm and attain the status of a weak saint as soon as possible!
However, this was not easy, even for them who were at the peak of Quasi-Saint level, there were still many difficulties.
"Whoosh." The group of seven used their escape techniques to traverse the Great Dao Shattered Void Stream.
Suddenly, a clear, ethereal sound echoed from the core of the Shattered Void Stream.
"This sounds familiar... It's the Chaos Blue Whale?!" Sun Wukong exclaimed in surprise. How did this blue whale end up in the Shattered Void Stream?
"The Chaos Blue Whale? A being that rivals the Chaos Thousand-Tentacle Octopus!"
Cao Ya knew that hundreds of Chaos Demon Gods had survived, the worst of whom were weak Saints, and there were quite a few True Primordial Chaos Gods!
Creatures like the Chaos Thousand-Touch Octopus, the Chaos Blue Whale, the Chaos Black Crow, and the Great God Yangmei are all at the second level of the Primordial Chaos realm!
Of course, at the top of the list are Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Demon Ancestor Luohou, and the Chaos Divine Tree!
It must be said that even in the primordial universe, various demons and gods often held a dominant position.
Of the many life forms born in and out of the universe, there are many who are truly primordial beings or weak saints, but to say that they have overwhelmed demons and gods... is simply a joke.
"Look!" Xue Baochai pointed her delicate finger into the distance.
The seven-member group all turned their gazes in that direction.
Within the boundless, shattered void, light surged and boiled, while a gigantic blue whale swam freely and unrestrainedly, displaying an air of carefree elegance.
The Shattered Void Flow, which posed a significant threat to the seven-person group, was completely unable to harm the Chaos Blue Whale, allowing it to roam freely!
