Chapter 550: 386

It was actually his grandmaster… Taiqing Daode Tianzun!

“Grandmaster!”

Xuanqing couldn’t help but call out.

Just like Nuwa previously, Taiqing Daode Tianzun didn’t speak and simply placed his hand on the crystal ball.

Moments later.

“Huff~” Taiqing Daode Tianzun recovered, opened his eyes to look at Xuanqing, his expression somewhat complex.

“Xuanqing, you… should go back to your own world!”

Unexpectedly.

The first words out of Taiqing Daode Tianzun’s mouth were these?

Xuanqing looked a bit astonished, then couldn’t help but continue to ask, “Grandmaster, is it that you can’t hold on any longer?”

“Yes!”

Taiqing Daode Tianzun nodded, his expression somewhat grim, and after being silent for a while, he continued to speak:

“For some unknown reason, the ten great Gods and Devils set aside their past grievances and concentrated all their power on the formless Gods and Devils. Even with us, the sages of Primordial, fighting desperately, we could only manage to repel it.”

“Several hundred years… no, perhaps within a hundred years, we will no longer be able to hold on. Along with the demise of Primordial, we will also perish.”

“So… you should go!”

Having said that.

Taiqing Daode Tianzun transformed into a streak of flowing light, disappearing into the void like Nuwa had before, clearly going to battle with the ten great Gods and Devils.

….

Once again, he watched Taiqing Daode Tianzun leave.

A hint of an inexplicable color flickered in Xuanqing’s eyes.

The ten great Gods and Devils…. within a hundred years…

From what Taiqing Daode Tianzun just said, it could be known that the Primordial World could last at least a hundred more years.

“It’s just unknown what the Time Ratio outside Primordial is compared to the Real World, but… a hundred years should be enough!”

“Let’s first try out the mettle of these Gods and Devils!”

Xuanqing’s eyes were determined, but in his heart, he had already made a decision.

As long as the function of the Immortal Cultivation Game Login Device could be used normally, he wouldn’t have to worry about dying and dissipating.

Even if he was ultimately banned, he could just start over with a new account; at most, he would lose all his current Cultivation.

The next moment.

His figure flashed, leaving the vicinity of the crystal ball, pursuing the footsteps of his grandmaster Taiqing Daode Tianzun, heading beyond the void.

Just as Xuanqing had barely left.

Buzzing~

The crystal ball radiated brilliantly.

An illusory shadow condensed above the crystal ball, revealing itself to be… the illusory shadow of Pangu.

The eyes of this Pangu illusory shadow followed Xuanqing’s retreating figure, flashing with a hint of admiration.

Immediately after.

The Pangu illusory shadow turned into specks of starlight and dissipated above the crystal ball.

If Xuanqing had seen this scene, he would have certainly doubted—had the Pangu God truly perished? Or was there another method by which he continued to exist?

….

Xuanqing would not see this scene.

At this moment.

After breaking through the void!

Xuanqing found himself on a battlefield rife with combat.

The turbulent Chaos Energy and the fluctuations left behind by the use of divine powers permeated the surrounding space, and everywhere one looked there were oddly shaped lesser demon gods.

Not far away.

Two vast powers were colliding, and the mere shockwaves from their encounter caused a great number of gods and lesser devils to perish.

On closer inspection!

It was the Sage Nuwa battling a god and devil who had two horns on its head and three tails behind its back.

Nuwa, wielding a willow branch, swept it through the air, ripples of Taoist rhyme spreading delicately, looking very graceful, yet it also contained formidable power.

But that two-horned, three-tailed monster was no ordinary foe; relying on its incredibly powerful physical body and god soul, it actually managed to withstand Nuwa’s divine powers.

Boom!

After enduring a hit, the two-horned three-tailed god and devil expelled a stream of black qi from its mouth towards Nuwa, and its horns also followed the black qi, thrusting forward.

“Not good!”

The color drained from Nuwa’s face, and as she brandished her vine, she managed to dissipate the blackness but was unable to attend to the rushing horns.

Splurt~

Golden blood surged forth.

Without a moment to think.

Nuwa swiftly retreated, entering the void as before, seeking to use the crystal ball formed by the Primordial World for recovery.

However.

Only when she looked back did she realize that outside the empty space, apart from those densely-packed monsters, there was now a young man wearing a Taoist robe.

“Is that the extra-territorial creature who can save the Primordial, the disciple of Taiqing Daoist Friend?”

Nuwa cried out in alarm.

Nonetheless.

Feeling the presence of the two-horned gods and devils approaching from behind, she couldn’t afford to ask any questions and swung her vine again.

“Danger, run quickly!”

Swish~

The vine wrapped around Xuanqing, pulling him into the void space where the crystal ball was, finally arriving beside the crystal ball.

Just like before.

Nuwa closed her eyes and placed her hand on the crystal ball.

Accompanied by the motion of the Origin from within the crystal ball of the Primordial World, all her injuries were healed.

“Her Highness Nuwa, I, humble…”

“Do not go out, danger lurks!”

Just as Xuanqing was about to say something, he saw that the Sage Nuwa had already recovered. With a twist of her serpentine body, she disappeared on the spot, leaving Xuanqing alone beside the crystal ball.

…

At this moment.

Beside the crystal ball.

Xuanqing was a bit dumbfounded.

What’s happening here, he had just stepped out to take a look and, once again, had been pulled back by Her Highness Nuwa.

“Let’s take another look!”

Xuanqing sighed and changed direction, then he manipulated the Rule of Law to tear open the void and entered the Endless Chaos.

…

Once more appearing.

The scene that came into view was still the battlefield.

Only, due to the change in direction, this time he did not appear next to Nuwa but beside his grand tutor, Taiqing Daode Tianzun.

“Xuanqing lad, you…”

Seeing his disciple emerge from the void space where the crystal ball was, Taiqing Daode Tianzun was extremely surprised.

“Did I not tell you to leave this place and return to your own world?”

Taiqing Daode Tianzun scolded him.

As he spoke.

He swung his duster, killing a large number of lesser demon gods and incidentally engaging in a bout with an oddly-shaped god and devil.

On the surface, Taiqing Daode Tianzun seemed much more powerful than Nuwa, but in reality… the gap between these two Sages wasn’t so large.

Firstly, that two-horned and triple-tailed demon god was the second strongest existence among the ten great demon gods, besides Wu Tian.

Secondly, Taiqing Daode Tianzun, a divine thought left by Pangu, was indeed somewhat stronger than a native of the Primordial World like Nuwa.

“Grand Tutor, do not forget that your disciple possesses an Undying Body, so let me try these gods and devils!”

This time.

Xuanqing hurriedly began to explain.

He was afraid that if he were too late, his Grand Tutor would, just like Her Highness Nuwa before, directly throw him back into that empty space.

Upon hearing this.

Taiqing Daode Tianzun was stunned, and then uncertainly asked: “In this Endless Chaos, can you also die and be resurrected, even if your True Spirit is annihilated?”

This was somewhat too inconceivable for him.

In fact.

He had known from his avatar’s memories about Xuanqing’s affairs in the Primordial and that the other could resurrect within the Primordial World, even explosively sacrificing his God Soul and still managing to come back to life.

But having such a divine power of resurrection within the Primordial World was not too strange, as many innate holy beings were capable of it.

For example, Ancestor of the Styx River from the Blood Sea deep in the Netherworld could resurrect as long as the Blood Sea did not dry up, even if his God Soul was ground down.

Furthermore, even these Sages, whose Divine thoughts were entrusted to the Heavenly Path of the Primordial, could effortlessly achieve resurrection.

But there were significant restrictions to these abilities.

For instance, Ancestor of the Styx River could only claim this as long as the Blood Sea did not dry up; if the Blood Sea were to wither, then his death would be final.

Even these six Sages, to always have the ‘undying’ attribute, must stay near the void space around the crystal ball transformed from the Primordial World.

If they strayed too far or the Origin Power of the Primordial World was exhausted, these immortal Sages would likewise perish!

While Taiqing Daode Tianzun was lost in thought.

A few lesser demon gods had already charged over, among them one that had disguised itself, attempting to use this ruse for a stealth attack.

However.

“Vile beasts, you dare attempt an ambush in the presence of this Venerable!” Taiqing Daode Tianzun bellowed in anger.
