Chapter 164 Heaven and Earth Battle Hongjun
Two colossal beings clashed on the primordial continent.
Xu Qiankun made no attempt to conceal anything. His true form as a god and demon was surrounded by the profound mysteries formed by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Within it, one could almost see the creation and destruction of heaven and earth, the birth and death of life, and even the faint appearance of innate gods and demons being conceived. Even a casual strike possessed the power of dozens of great worlds superimposed, making it extremely terrifying.
Hongjun unfurled the auspicious clouds, and the Great Dao of Balance transformed the world. Within this world, most of Xu Qiankun's advantages were erased.
His attack landed on Hongjun, and its power was immediately suppressed to the level of a normal Quasi-Saint peak.
The abilities to deprive life force, degenerate life, and deform flesh and blood, created by comprehending the origin of life, can still be easily broken by the Great Dao of Balance.
In contrast, Hongjun stands on a golden lotus of merit, has the Haotian Mirror on his head, and holds the Pangu Banner, a supreme innate treasure.
The Golden Lotus of Merit was formed by absorbing part of the creation merit of the Thirty-Sixth Grade Chaos Green Lotus. Although its power is far inferior to the Creation Green Lotus, its protective power is extremely terrifying. Even Xu Qiankun could not break through it.
The Haotian Mirror is also a top-grade innate spiritual treasure. Moreover, it was naturally conceived by the primordial world and contains a portion of the primordial authority, possessing the power to monitor the primordial world and imprison time and space.
Not to mention the Pangu Banner, this treasure is transformed from the blade of the innate supreme treasure, the Pangu Axe. It can easily tear through chaos and shatter the primordial void. If it falls on Xu Qiankun, it can also annihilate part of his divine and demonic true form.
Under the dual pressure of these three supreme treasures and the Balanced Dojo, Xu Qiankun was actually at a disadvantage.
"Hongjun's strength is indeed not weak."
Xu Qiankun remained calm.
Buzz
Just then, a clone suddenly emerged from Hongjun's body; it was one of His Three Corpses clones.
The clone, wielding the innate merit treasure, the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, struck at Xu Qiankun.
Xu Qiankun hurriedly unfurled the Blood Sea Banner to defend himself. As the Blood Sea Banner unfolded, it formed a filthy sea of blood, causing even Hongjun to frown.
"Nine Shadows of Heaven and Earth"
Xu Qiankun thrust out his spear, and nine spear shadows disappeared into the void. Then, it seemed as if nine worlds, each no smaller than the Qiankun Great World, landed on Hongjun.
Rumble
Even the Great Dao of Balance couldn't completely negate this power. Hongjun's main body was directly blasted away, and the Balance Dao Field was broken.
"The Dharma Realm of Heaven and Earth"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Qiankun directly unleashed his most powerful divine ability, "Qiankun Dharma Realm".
A vast world descended, directly absorbing Hongjun's avatar within it. Then, the world shrank, falling into His palm and transforming into a crystalline World Pearl.
In the world of beads, Hongjun's clone, wielding the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, relentlessly bombarded the world, attempting to break it apart.
However, this Qiankun Dharma Realm is not only the strongest divine power condensed by the Qiankun Dao, but also incorporates the life origin Dao that Xu Qiankun has fully comprehended, as well as more than 70% of the Five Elements Dao and Yin Yang Dao, and more than 30% of the Destruction Dao, Creation Dao, and Space Dao.
Its power was as terrifying as the world controlled by His World Tree avatar.
Even with the strength of Hongjun's clone and the advantage of the innate merit treasure, the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, it was impossible to break it.
"Fellow Daoist Qiankun, return my avatar and the Fallen Saint Pill, and from now on, we will have no further ties."
Hongjun looked at Xu Qiankun with a gloomy expression and said in an icy voice.
"Fellow Daoist, you're dreaming."
Xu Qiankun sneered. With the Qiankun Cauldron above his head, the Void-Piercing Spear in his hand, and the sea of blood beneath his feet, he charged towards Hongjun's main body.
The two great gods and demons clashed once again.
Buzz
The Haotian Mirror shone brightly, attempting to suppress time and space, but Xu Qiankun preemptively combined the Qiankun Dao with the Qiankun Cauldron, claiming to be a great world, severing its connection with the primordial world's time, thus preventing the Haotian Mirror from affecting his divine and demonic true form.
Seeing that the Haotian Mirror had failed to achieve its purpose, Hongjun's expression became even more unpleasant.
Just then, Xu Qiankun seemed to sense something.
"aurora"
He used the Sky-Piercing Spear as the spearhead and his own divine and demonic form as the spear shaft, transforming into a point of light that was both extremely fast and extremely sharp, and then charged towards Hongjun.
"Another move that can break the limits of my Balance Dao."
Hongjun's expression changed slightly. The Great Dao of Balance has its limits. Once the critical value is exceeded, the balance effect will be broken.
An apricot-yellow flag appeared before Hongjun and Xu Qiankun, carrying an incomparably profound aura, like a world unto itself.
This is the Earth-Yellow Flag, the most defensive of the five flags.
Rumble
The light fell on the Earth-Yellow Banner, shattering vast swathes of the primordial void, yet it was still blocked by the Earth-Yellow Banner.
However, before Hongjun could show any joy, a subtle spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared behind him, and then an unassuming cane landed on his head.
Buzz
Xu Qiankun seemed to see time and space shatter, and endless space transforming into countless dimensions.
Before the Golden Lotus of Merit could react, Hongjun's powerful divine and demonic true form shattered like glass. Most of his divine and demonic power was annihilated by the Great Dao of Space, while a small portion of his divine and demonic power re-condensed, transforming into a smaller version of Hongjun with a height of less than ten million kilometers.
However, Hongjun paid no attention to his own injuries; instead, he looked at the newly appeared powerful figure.
"Fellow Daoist Yang Mei, I didn't expect that you, who clearly do not have the ability to create clones, would still have a backup plan."
The newcomer was none other than Yang Mei.
"I must thank Fellow Daoist Hongjun for his painstaking efforts in leading me into this tribulation."
Yang Mei looked at Hongjun with an icy expression.
As a hollow willow tree with a top-grade innate spiritual root, it not only has an extremely long growth cycle, but also a lazy and inactive nature. If it were not for Hongjun's deliberate guidance, it probably would not have been born after this great calamity ended.
It's a pity that Hongjun was not a human being, constantly seeking to discuss the Dao with Him, and continuously revealing his cultivation to seduce Him.
He thought he had made a good friend, but he didn't expect that what he valued was friendship, while Hongjun valued his merits and fortune.
"It turns out that you did not take form like the Five Elements, but instead hid your true body, leaving your true spirit within it, and then nurtured your true form as a god or demon with your true body."
"Since the physical body has no will, it is like an inanimate object, and naturally it will not be affected by the calamity energy. Fellow Daoist, you have a well-thought-out plan."
Hongjun's head was covered in auspicious clouds, and he soon learned how Yang Mei had escaped the great calamity.
On the contrary, Xu Qiankun's method of avoiding calamity was something He couldn't predict.
Because no matter how you calculate it, the Ancestor of Heaven and Earth should not have been able to avoid this calamity.
Another clone emerged from Hongjun's body, replacing the original body, which was now only tens of millions of kilometers long.
"Since you two both want to make things difficult for me, then you may both stay."
Hongjun's eyes hardened, and auspicious clouds surged above his head. Xu Qiankun immediately sensed a great crisis.
"This guy's going to use the Jade Disc of Creation."
Xu Qiankun instantly understood. Before Hongjun's auspicious cloud could unfold, he unhesitatingly activated the secret technique of will, "Purple Heaven," once again.
A flash of purple light appeared in His eyes, and Hongjun immediately froze on the spot.
"Innate Five-Colored Divine Light"
A beam of five-colored divine light swept across, and the golden lotus of merit that Hongjun Ancestor was standing on disappeared, the apricot-yellow flag of the Earth element in front of him disappeared, the Pangu Banner in his hand disappeared, and even the Haotian Mirror above his head was swept away.
Xu Qiankun's comprehension of the Five Elements Dao is not limited to the Five Elements Avatar. He has also mastered the Five-Colored Divine Light and the Five Elements Great Realm, but he has never used them.
Today, however, they dealt Hongjun a harsh blow.
Under normal circumstances, the Five-Colored Divine Light could sweep away the Golden Lotus of Merit, the Apricot Yellow Banner of Earth, and the Haotian Mirror, but it would never be able to sweep away the Pangu Banner, a supreme innate treasure.
However, since Hongjun's will was controlled by the "Ziluotian," his body was like a puppet. Without Hongjun's restraint, the Pangu Banner really couldn't block its five-colored divine light.
Xu Qiankun wanted to take the Creation Jade Butterfly with him, but just as he was about to make his move, he immediately felt a sense of dread.
"The Jade Disc of Creation must not be touched, otherwise there will definitely be problems."
Xu Qiankun thought to himself, and then without hesitation used his teleportation technique to arrive next to Rahu's enormous corpse.
The five-colored divine light swept over and collected Rahu's corpse.
Then, Xu Qiankun teleported away without looking back.
With the Jade Disc of Creation in hand, He certainly cannot kill Hongjun now, and may even lose this clone.
It wasn't that he couldn't bear to part with a clone, but rather with the treasures on that clone.
"This fellow Daoist Qiankun just ran away?"
Seeing Xu Qiankun's disappearing figure, Yang Mei raised an eyebrow, glanced at the stiff and motionless Hongjun, and sensed the danger, so she quickly teleported away.
"Hongjun has already gained power, so I can't stay in the prehistoric world anymore. I should go to the Chaos to settle down," Yangmei Immortal thought to himself. "Anyway, with this Chaos Hollow Willow Heart, I can completely transform into a Chaos Spiritual Root."
Not long after Yang Mei left, Hongjun immediately woke up.
Looking at his empty hands, then at his empty feet, and then at his empty head, Hongjun let out a roar.
"Qiankun, Yangmei, when I become a saint, I will surely kill you."
"Just impotent rage"
Xu Qiankun's mocking voice faintly echoed from the surrounding void.
