Chapter 341: The Spirit Root Emerges

"You brat! How dare you trick me!" Master Sixth roared in fury.

Chaotic Demon Gods were nearly extinct; traces of them had vanished from the world countless millennia ago. Yet here, within the Moon God Clan’s forbidden grounds, one was sealed away. Master Sixth could never have anticipated this.

Even just a wisp of its True Spirit was beyond his resistance.

Boom!

The Chaotic Demon God’s third eye swiveled. The calamitous wind cataclysm tore all matter apart, returning it to primal chaos. Save for the Great Dao of Chaos, nearly all power of the Great Dao was erased from existence by it.

Such was the terror of a Chaotic Demon God.

"The one who wants you dead isn’t me," Ye Xu’s voice called out, instantly drowning in the Chaotic Demon God’s deafening howl.

A frown creased Ye Xu’s brow.

Dao King had obtained information about the Moon God Clan from the Heaven’s Secret Pavilion. Yet, he’d omitted the most crucial detail – the presence of the Chaotic Demon God. He hadn’t shared it with Master Sixth.

No. He hadn’t told anyone.

Why would he do that?

It remained a puzzle Ye Xu couldn’t solve.

Not that he particularly cared. Whether Master Sixth lived or died was no concern of his.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Chaotic Demon God floated amidst the chaos. One colossal hand reached towards Master Sixth, the gesture like the sky itself collapsing.

Master Sixth frantically summoned multiple Immortal King treasure, weaving them into a formidable heavenly sword formation. Yet the instant his formation manifested, the descending demonic palm corrupted all its power.

One by one, the treasures lost their immortal light, crumbling into decay.

"My life ends here," Master Sixth despaired utterly.

In a fundamental sense, Chaotic Demon Gods represented the very rules of heaven and earth. After all, the entire cosmos evolved from their essence. How could postnatal beings possibly contend with them?

Only by cultivating through the Immortal Venerable realm, standing at the end of the Great Dao, could one face such primordial horrors.

Recall, within the Everlasting City of Desolation, even an incomplete Chaotic Demon God could fight Qi Yuanchu to a standstill. What hope did anyone have against this fully awakened one?

Crack!

Master Sixth’s body was shattered with a squeeze from the giant hand. The Chaotic Demon God drew a long, deep inhalation. Master Sixth’s immense vital essence surged into the demon god’s form, causing its body to swell by tens of thousands of feet.

It could restore its power through blood sacrifice.

Ye Xu had long since made his escape.

Boom!

In the next instant, palaces of the Moon God Clan plunged into the earth. The calamitous wind swept through. The black hurricane pulverized the entire Moon God Clan, transforming the land into a roiling chaotic forbidden zone.

Amidst this newly born chaos, a ferociously hideous demon god rose. Three eyes gleaming with malevolent light, it cast a cold, piercing stare upon all living things.

From His mouth, He spoke ancient words.

"Chaotic Demon God!"

Li Ruoshui and the man in green clothes were horrified, and the two Ancestors of the Moon God Clan were also terrified.

"Di Wuyou, the Moon God Clan has sealed the Chaotic Demon God. Why didn’t you tell us?" The man in green clothes surged with killing intent, wishing he could cut Dao King with a sword.

If he had known that the Moon God Clan had sealed the Chaotic Demon God, even with a thousand guts, he wouldn’t have dared to come.

Bang!

Dao King swung his sword to knock away the Creation spiritual embryo, bursting into anger. "Master of Heaven’s Secret Pavilion is truly detestable for hiding the information about the Chaotic Demon God."

"Two Masters, this disciple does not know about the news of the Chaotic Demon God."

He did not continue to attack Nangong Zhandao, apologizing to the two.

"The master is already dead."

The Nine-headed golden lion said sorrowfully, but regarding the Chaotic Demon God, it was extremely fearful, sensing a suppression from its bloodline, unable to help but submit.

Upon hearing the death news, Li Ruoshui and the man in green clothes were deeply grieved.

"Ha ha ha ha…"

The white-clad Immortal King of the Moon God Clan laughed madly. "The Chaotic Demon God emerges. None should think of escaping. The entire Star Realm will turn into wasteland, and you will all be buried together!"

"Now is not the time to fight." Li Ruoshui said coldly. "This Chaotic Demon God has been sealed for tens of millions of years. It is no longer at its peak state. With five Immortal Kings joining forces, we may have a chance to fight."

"Nangong Zhandao, quickly take Youruo away."

At this moment, the leader of the Moon Goddess Clan transmitted a voice message.

"Okay."

Nangong Zhandao did not hesitate at all. He retrieved the Creation spiritual embryo and immediately flew towards the Sea of All Realms.

"Let’s leave too."

Dao King’s gaze flickered. He took Yan Duxing and the others, transforming into a beam of light to fly away.

Yan Duxing looked at Dao King, feeling only fear in his heart.

The master of Heaven’s Secret Pavilion keeps his word and values reputation the most. As Yan Duxing knew, he would never conceal the news of the Chaotic Demon God from Dao King.

Then, why did the master conceal it?

Knowing that the forbidden land sealed the Chaotic Demon God, he still sent Master Sixth to his death?

What does he gain from this?

Boom rumble!

The Chaotic Demon God roared. The Star Realm began to assimilate at a visible speed into chaotic areas. Hurricanes swept through the Star Realm, and the entire Star Realm was continuously collapsing.

In an instant, countless living beings died unexpectedly, turning into streams of spiritual energy, which were devoured by the Chaotic Demon God.

His power became increasingly stronger.

At this moment, in the Chaotic Demon God’s third eye, the figure of Nangong Zhandao was reflected.

"The aura of Pangu… and the Ziwei Spirit Root…"

To everyone’s astonishment, it spoke in human language.

After absorbing countless vital essences and memories, it had already mastered the languages of all races.

"Give it to me!"

Even for the Chaotic Demon God born before the creation of the heavens, the Ziwei Spirit Root remained immensely precious, containing an ultimate origin between heaven and earth, which could be called a rule.

This power was actually of the same root and origin as that of the Chaotic Demon God.

Devouring the Ziwei Spirit Root could help it restore to its peak state in the shortest time possible.

The Chaotic Demon God reached out its hand toward Nangong Zhandao. Where it passed, everything turned into chaos, countless living beings disintegrated, and their flesh and blood essences were absorbed by it.

"It’s targeting me!"

Nangong Zhandao’s face underwent a great change. Although he didn’t understand why the Chaotic Demon God would target him, being targeted by it was undeniably an extremely bad thing.

Dao King frowned deeply.

"Why would this Chaotic Demon God target Nangong Zhandao?" Dao King wondered. "Could it be because of the luck of the Yuan Realm on Nangong Zhandao?"

Pangu created the heavens and destroyed the Three Thousand Chaotic Demon Gods.

For the Chaotic Demon Gods, they bore an irreconcilable hatred toward Pangu.

Nangong Zhandao was the inheritor of the luck of the Yuan Realm, so naturally, he was considered a successor of Pangu.

Of course, he never thought that the Ziwei Spirit Root, one of the Nine Great Spirit Roots of Heaven and Earth, was also within Nangong Zhandao.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the power of the Chaotic Demon God enveloped Nangong Zhandao. The world around him was assimilated, and it seemed Nangong Zhandao couldn’t escape death.

But at that very moment,

from Nangong Zhandao’s Purple Palace, a purple light filled the sky. A towering vine extended out, its branches swaying and wrapping around his body.

The mysterious purple light was filled with an incredibly miraculous power, which unexpectedly halted the assimilation by the Chaotic Demon God’s power.

"The legendary Ziwei Spirit Root!"

Li Ruoshui, the man in blue, and the two Ancestors of the Moon God Clan all looked appalled when they saw that purple beam.

Then, boundless envy surged up in their hearts.

A mere Great Emperor, an existence like an ant—how was he worthy of bearing the luck of the Yuan Realm?

And he even possessed the Ziwei Spirit Root!

This was the fundamental reason that drove them mad with jealousy!

"Hehe…"

A mocking laugh came from the Chaotic Demon God’s mouth. How similar was the not fully formed Ziwei Spirit Root to it?

It let out a low growl, and its hand descended. Yet the purple light was as unyielding as steel, unexpectedly remaining unbroken.

But the Chaotic Demon God didn’t give up.

It had to obtain the Ziwei Spirit Root.

…

Meanwhile,

in a distant void, a white-robed boy walked amid the scars of the heavens. His footsteps abruptly halted.

"The Ziwei Spirit Root? The Chaotic Demon God?"

The white-robed boy almost without hesitation locked onto the direction of the Star Realm.

"I’ve searched everywhere to no avail, and now it comes to me effortlessly."

"This Ziwei Spirit Root is mine now."

Before his words had faded, he vanished from the spot.
