Chapter 24: Ancestor Hongjun Appears!
"Ugh~"
"Roar~"
The Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin unleashed their most precious treasures, revealing their true forms and emitting dragon roars and furious cries.
Now that the First Dragon Qilin has nowhere to escape, they are preparing to fight to the death with the Ancestor Rahu.
The strongest fighting force of innate divine beasts has never been their innate Dao body form.
For innate divine beasts, the innate Dao body form can actually suppress some of their combat power.
Only in their true form can they unleash their full combat power.
However, the innate Dao body is much more convenient in daily life than the physical body.
After all, the physical bodies of most innate divine beasts are terrifyingly large, and even a unit of measurement like a million feet is insignificant in front of them.
Bai Chen is an exception!
After the First Dragon and the First Qilin revealed their true forms, their bodies blotted out the sky and the sun.
As the Ancestral Dragon unleashed the Ancestral Dragon Pearl from its jaws, and the First Qilin unleashed the Qilin Seal before it, the world lost its color the instant countless Dao techniques were unleashed.
"break!"
Ancestor Rahu unleashed his Divine Spear, its innate malevolent energy soaring into the heavens. With a single thrust, he severed the attacks of the Ancestral Dragon and the Primordial Qilin, sending them into nothingness.
The innate malevolent energy of the God-Slaying Spear transformed into black light, landing on the Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin. In an instant, the bodies of the Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin were already riddled with wounds and tattered beyond repair.
The injuries on the bodies of Zulong and Shiqilin were the lightest; the most serious injury was that their cultivation had been reduced by Ancestor Luohou.
Now, both the Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin have been knocked down from their cultivation levels by Ancestor Rahu, and are no longer at the half-step Dao attainment stage.
"How boring!"
Ancestor Luo Hou shook his head as he looked at how weak the Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin were.
He hadn't even used his full strength, yet neither the First Qilin nor the Ancestral Dragon could withstand it.
With their cultivation reduced, the Ancestral Dragon and the Primordial Qilin were filled with despair, having reached the end of their road.
"Zulong and Shiqilin, if you had half the intelligence of Yuanfeng, you could live a little longer."
"Because of your foolishness, the strength of the scaled and armored races and the beast races has been reduced to less than one-tenth. Today, the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan should also repay this karmic debt and help me attain enlightenment!"
Ancestor Rahu unleashed his God-Slaying Spear, and the First Dragon and the First Qilin had already resigned themselves to their fate, preparing to die.
"Fellow Daoist Rahu, spare his life!"
With a shout, a golden lotus with twelve petals appeared before the Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin, blocking the attack of Ancestor Rahu.
Hongjun Laozu, holding a whisk, revealed himself with a twelve-petaled golden lotus of merit.
"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist."
The First Dragon and the First Qilin transformed into innate Dao bodies and bowed to Hongjun, their savior, to express their gratitude.
"Hongjun, you survived the great calamity that created the world back then?"
Others may not recognize Hongjun, but Luohou recognized him at a glance, after all, they were both among the three thousand chaotic gods and demons back then.
However, Ancestor Rahu was still somewhat surprised that Ancestor Hongjun was not dead.
"Fellow Daoist Luo Hou is joking. We were not the only ones who survived the great calamity that created the heavens."
Hongjun Laozu stroked his beard and smiled, appearing quite composed.
It can be said that of the top-ranked three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons, apart from the Chaos Demon Ape, who was mad and cut into four pieces by Pangu, none of the others died completely; they all escaped at the last moment.
"Hongjun, get out of my way now. I can spare your life for the sake of our friendship when we fought against Pangu together during the creation of the world."
Ancestor Luo Hou knew Ancestor Hongjun's background; the fact that the other party could withstand his attack just now meant that he must be quite powerful.
Therefore, he is now unwilling to cause any more trouble and does not want to be enemies with Hongjun Laozu.
Once I attain enlightenment, I'll have plenty of time to deal with the other party.
"Fellow Daoist Rahu, you have committed countless acts of slaughter. I, in accordance with the will of the Great Dao, have come to stop you!"
Hongjun Laozu rejected Luohou Laozu's "goodwill." He wasn't stupid; not to mention that he had also sensed the opportunity to attain enlightenment.
Even if we let Ancestor Rahu attain enlightenment today, once he succeeds, he will definitely be punished by Ancestor Rahu for saving Ancestral Dragon and First Qilin.
"Hongjun, back when Pangu proved the Great Dao, you were courting death."
"Now that I'm attaining enlightenment, you're courting death. Since that's the case, I'll grant your wish."
Ancestor Luo Hou was furious. Did little Hongjun really think that by taking that attack he just received, he could contend with him?
You should know that your attack just now was just a casual strike with the God-Slaying Spear.
If I were to unleash the God-Slaying Spear with all my might, how could Hongjun's Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit possibly withstand it?
……
"Shi Qilin, it seems we've all been outmaneuvered."
Zu Long, who was standing nearby, also guessed the true nature of the two elders by listening to the conversation between Ancestor Luo Hou and Ancestor Hong Jun.
He never expected that these two were actually transformed from chaotic gods and demons who hadn't quite died during the Great Calamity of Creation.
Losing to such an existence, Zu Long's defeat was not unjust.
"Ugh!"
The First Qilin sighed, then said:
"Back when we were attacking the ferocious beast clan, I sensed something was amiss. The fall of the Beast King Shen Ni was too suspicious."
"It seems that the fall of the Beast Emperor Shenni back then was inextricably linked to them!"
During the great calamity of the ferocious beasts, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans were able to lead all races to victory against the ferocious beasts, and there were many strange circumstances surrounding this.
The biggest mystery is the fall of the Beast King Shen Ni.
Back then, it was the Beast King Shen Ni who failed to attain enlightenment and perished, which gave the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans the opportunity to lead all races to defeat the ferocious beast clan.
But no one knows how the Beast Emperor Shenni failed to attain enlightenment.
Today, Shi Qilin has probably guessed the truth.
Perhaps the Beast Emperor Shenni was also transformed from a chaotic god or demon. As for his failure to attain enlightenment, it is highly likely that he was killed by figures like Hongjun Laozu.
Indeed, that was the case. In order to kill the Beast Emperor Shenni, many powerful beings from the primordial world were lost.
The First Dragon and the First Qilin bowed to Hongjun, the Ancestor, and said:
"Fellow Daoist, we are both seriously injured, so we won't hold you back."
The Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan are still being slaughtered, and the Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin want to go down to rescue them.
Of course, they had no desire to interfere in the affairs of Ancestor Rahu and Ancestor Hongjun; they only wanted to save their own lives.
"It's alright!"
Hongjun Patriarch agreed, after all, the Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin had already had their cultivation reduced by Rahu Patriarch and were seriously injured, so they couldn't cause any big trouble or be of much help.
Just as the First Dragon and the First Qilin were about to leave, the Ancestor Hongjun called them back and said:
"However, I must remind you two fellow Daoists of something. The Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans led all races in fighting against the ferocious beast clan, which was a meritorious act."
"But your three races should not have used force to suppress all races, and should not have started a war for your own selfish desires, causing all races to suffer. Perhaps you should give an explanation to the myriad races of the prehistoric world."
Hongjun Laozu reminded Zulong and Shiqilin, then waved his robe to signal them to get lost.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"
After the First Dragon and the First Qilin bowed to each other, they disappeared into the battlefield below.
"Ugh!"
Hongjun sighed helplessly at the behavior of Zulong and Shiqilin. It seemed that the two were still unrepentant and would not let him off the hook even after he had warned them.
You won't learn from God's teachings, but you'll learn from God's teachings.
Hongjun Laozu believed that when the karmic consequences descended, the First Dragon and the First Qilin would become sensible.
