Chapter- 9 (This Primordial World is Too Dangerous)
Chapter 9: Kill The Beast! Where Is The Heavenly Merit Reward?
The ferocious beast, cut into two halves, thrashed violently, one half on left and one on the right. Jet black blood flowed, and black flames ignited on its body.
At this moment, its power was increasing crazily; moments later, it exploded with a terrifying power that was close of a late-stage Golden Immortal.
It was a lethal attack!
“So ruthless!” Yuan Lian’s eyes twitched slightly.
‘If a normal creature comes across invincible opponent, then first thing it considers is escaping.’
‘Unlike this one.’
‘It seemed like this beast didn’t have any intelligence at all. The beast’s sole purpose seems to be destruction, whether of itself or of whoever it faces.’
‘I can only see a primal urge for destruction in its ferocious eyes.’
“Let’s see how many times you can resist, Zhen! Slash!”
Yuan Lian did not choose to clash head on. Instead, he cast a space shield and instantly appeared on the other side of the beast.
The Sea Calming Pearls smashed down, and then traveled through the space to strike from another direction. Followed by torrent of spiritual energy imbued with Law of Purification struck down.
Despite the beast’s flesh and bone were separated and its body had collapsed, looking extremely miserable, the blood turned into black flames and burned the surrounding space.
But even so, it still didn’t die. In its head, a single drop of blood shone with a strange bright light that maintained the beast’s life force.
Yuan Lian watched it from a distance, feeling an extremely vast and terrifying resentment emanating from that single drop of blood.
There was no doubt that this drop of blood was the source of beast’s power.
“Roar!!”
The terrifying roar continued. The ferocious beast’s two halves of the body fused, forcibly combining torn flesh and inserting broken blood in cruel and bloody spectacle.
The black flame used beast’s flesh and blood as fuel, burning brighter still.
The extremely blazing flame had traces of Dao of Chaos. Though only an extremely shallow trace, it granted the black flame the power to burn the world itself.
In the flames, the aura, the space, the wind in the empty sky- everything had been turned into fuel, as if it would burn forever, until this world ends.
With raging black flames, the ferocious beast rushed towards Yuan Lian as if committing suicide.
“I can’t hide; the space has been locked by the black flame.”
Indeed, it wasn’t the beast itself that locked his energy, but the burning black flame.
Yuan Lian took deep breath. He never imagined that a ferocious beast at the early stage of Golden Immortal would force him into such a predicament.
He once again felt the horror of the Primordial World, which had raised the level of danger to new extreme.
“I don’t believe it! How can a mere early-stage Golden Immortal beast be able to withstand me!”
Since there was no way to hide, Yuan Lian was filled with unyielding resolve.
He begun absorbing the spiritual energies, the Laws of the Heaven and the Earth, and the vast amount of spirit energy was poured into the World Purifying White Lotus platform.
The infinite light was blooming, the infinite Law was shining, and the Supreme Primordial Spirit Treasure was erupting with supreme power.
Boom!!!
Like two ancient stars colliding, the terrifying impact made Yuan Lian stagger.
The ferocious beast hit the aura shield of the World Purifying White Lotus, and the vast and majestic aura instantly began to purifying it.
‘What is purification?’
‘Purification is alteration of matter’s root essence- transforming all corruption back into something acceptable to Heaven and Earth’s Dao.’
‘And why are Fierce Beasts corrupted?’
‘It was that drop of blood.’
‘Therefore, under the light of the pure world, the ferocious beast turned into ashes, leaving only a drop of strange blood burning with black flames.’
The stalemate continued, the Black Flame seemed to never give up until it was destroyed.
Yuan Lian’s face turned pale, and he quickly took out a globule of the Lake of Three Glories and swallowed it drop by drop.
The lotus platform was like a bottomless abyss, devouring Yuan Lian’s spirit energy.
As soon as the black flame recovered, it was swallowed up again by light, and the cycle repeated.
Yuan Lian knew that it was the drop of blood that was too terrifying, and the power of the black flame was beyond his imagination.
Not until he swallowed three drops of 20th globule Lake of Three Glories, the Lotus Platform finally sated the flame.
“Purification! Purification!”
Yuan Lian shot out two streams of Light of Purification, completely wiped out the dimmed black flame, leaving only a solitary drop of blood fluctuating in front of his body.
“Accept!”
He carefully took out a jade bottle and sealed the blood within.
Afterwards, Yuan Lian raised his head to sky, his arms wide open, as if waiting for a response.
Woohoo~~
After a few breaths, a gust of wind blew past, bringing out bursts of whimpering.
After that, everything remained silent.
Yuan Lian lowered his head in embarrassment, folded his arms, and quickly scanned the surrounding hundreds of millions of miles with his spiritual senses.
“Fortunately, no one saw that.”
“Miscalculated.”
“Didn’t the text say that the killing Fierce Beasts is a good deed for Heaven and Earth, and comes with merit rewards?”
“This is different from what is written in the book, alas!” Yuan Lian was a little disappointed.
Since Yuan Lian didn’t find any merit reward, he immediately turned into long rainbow and flew away.
After flying for a hundred years, he disappeared between the Heaven and the Earth in a flash.
More than a hundred years later, on the original battlefield, an extremely fast rainbow light manifested.
“What a terrifying power! At least two late-stage Golden Immortals clashed here?” Kun Peng looked solemnly at the remaining battlefield.
Looking around he found that the surrounding space was completely shattered, and endless void winds swept out from the space, blowing into the Primordial World.
As the broken Laws of the Heaven and the Earth collided with each other, slowly repairing the ruptured fabric of Heaven and Earth.
“Was it a white dragon? No, there’s no traces of the law of Water, here.”
“As far as I know, only the white dragon of the dragon clan is the strongest in the late-stage Golden Immortal realm, but he didn’t reside at West Sea.”
But after careful consideration, Kun Peng dismissed the idea.
“After all Dragon Clan’s signature Law of Water was missing from this battlefield. On contrary there were traces of Law of Destruction.”
“Not to mention, there’s also traces of another law, one that is extremely pure, and feels like it purifies the soul.”
Kun Peng observed it carefully, and suddenly, he turned his head to look in opposite side.
Immediately, he used his spirit energy to erase the remaining traces of the Law of Purification.
Above the vast sea, a man in a white robe with a dragon pattern and an elegant face quickly approached.
Within a moment, he appeared beside the Shattered World.
“Kun Peng, as expected of cultivator of Law of Speed,” the man nodded towards Kun Peng without any surprise.
He could only sigh in his heart, as Kun Peng’s speed was truly unprecedented.
Coming all the way from the North Sea to the West Sea, Kun Peng was actually one step faster that the man who was already situated in the West Sea.
“Ah.”
Kun Peng responded lightly, as a greeting, accepting Bai Long’s praise frankly.
“This seems to have a clash involving a Late-stage Golden Immortals. Does fellow Daoist Kun Peng know what happened here?”
Bai Long looked at Kun Peng thoughtfully.
‘There was only one breath left, and its strength is about the same as that of the late-stage Golden Immortal, so the combatant must be a late-stage Golden Immortal.’
‘One must know that, Dragon Clan which dominates the endless world only possesses a dozen of Late-stage Golden Immortals. Each of them, treated with great respect, and each powerhouse occupy important role within the clan.’
But here above the West Sea, there was actually battle between two such power, and judging by the state of the battlefield, one of them must have fallen.
How could this not surprise Bai Long.
‘If I find this strong cultivator and introduce him to the Dragon Clan, it will greatly benefit to my own status and as well as for my cultivation.’
“Oh, wasn’t it a strong dragon?” Kun Peng asked knowingly. Bai Long thought so, but Kun Peng clearly didn’t.
For the Innate Great Power, cultivation is difficult, and the path ahead is uncertain.
It is a blessing to find like-minded friends who are in the same realm to practice together and testify to Dao for each other.
As far as he knew, in such a primordial world, the number of Daluo Golden Immortals could be counted on one hand.
But no Daluo Golden Immortal was willing to teach his cultivation path and experience. If one wanted to learn, he could join them and become their subservient follower.
However, Kun Peng himself was unwilling to stoop so low.
“Heh! Fellow Daoist Kun Peng is just joking.” Bai Long said in self-deprecatingly, and then added:
“Fellow Daoist Kun Peng, meeting here is fate, how about going to the Dragon Palace for get together?”
