The Origin of Yuan Zun, Ascending Together [Please Subscribe]

The Valley of Evil Spirits.

After the faked-death Guanghan Venerable and the Green Robe Venerable self-destructed together, the mysterious "Yuan Zun" could no longer hide himself.

The secret realm he was in was directly destroyed by the self-destruction of two Nascent Soul Venerables, and even the deep ravine outside was blown up!

The power of the white ice-elemental law and the green wood-elemental law raged across the world, freezing the earth into frost one moment and thawing the frost the next, causing vegetation to wither and die.

Besides these two great laws, an extremely domineering and strange gray power rose from the deep ravine, suppressing and crushing all other forces.

Having retreated hundreds of miles away, Venerable Changchun looked closely and saw a strange man in a gray robe flying out from where the deep ravine had been.

The man wore a gray robe, and his appearance was constantly changing. Sometimes he looked like a young man, sometimes he transformed into a refined young man, then he became a middle-aged man, and in the blink of an eye he became a weathered old man, constantly switching between the four appearances.

But the only thing that remained unchanged was the fierce intent revealed in his eyes.

His eyes glared fiercely at Venerable Changchun, and he roared, "You damned native! Do you know what a foolish thing you've done? You've ruined all the hard work I've put into this over the years! Have you thought about how I'm going to deal with you?"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Changchun did not answer but instead asked, "What is your relationship with Senior Venerable Yuantian?"

Sure enough, upon hearing the words "Supreme Lord Yuan Tian," the gray-robed man's expression changed instantly, and he sneered, "I didn't expect you, a mere native, to know his name. No wonder you dared to plot against me!"

His eyes flashed coldly as he said in a chilling voice, "But do you think that just because I'm not him, I can't kill you?"

Before the words had even faded, a gray dragon shadow rose from his body and pounced towards Venerable Changchun.

Venerable Changchun dared not be negligent and immediately waved his [Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Fan], sending a gust of wind and thunder towards the gray dragon shadow.

However, after the two collided, the aura of wind and thunder was easily annihilated and broken by the gray dragon shadow, which then rushed straight towards Venerable Changchun without diminishing its momentum.

This situation startled Venerable Changchun, who hurriedly activated his backup plan, transforming his cyan bamboo spear into a cyan snake to meet the gray dragon shadow.

The dragon and the snake clashed in the air, with the green snake clearly being severely suppressed.

"What bizarre power of the Great Dao! What kind of Great Dao law is this?!"

After repeatedly confirming that the gray dragon shadow was merely a divine power applied by the laws of the Great Dao and not some kind of spiritual treasure, Venerable Changchun also exclaimed in alarm with a face full of apprehension.

Upon hearing this, the gray-robed man snorted coldly, "Hmph, a native is a native!"

His words were full of contempt and disdain.

Then he opened his mouth and spat out a ball of gray light, which manifested as a shuttle-shaped magical treasure that shot towards Venerable Changchun.

Having witnessed his power, Venerable Changchun dared not be careless again.

Without hesitation, he immediately revealed his trump card!

Then he raised his hand and waved it, and a beam of green light shot out from his sleeve, clashing with the shuttle-shaped magical treasure.

As the two treasures collided, the true form of the emerald light was quickly revealed, which turned out to be an emerald green wooden comb!

"Oh, this is the [Azure Comb] that woman Biluo used? Wasn't this treasure destroyed back then? How did you repair it?"

Upon seeing the emerald green wooden comb, the gray-robed man was somewhat surprised, but he recognized the origin of this treasure.

But Venerable Changchun naturally wouldn't answer his question.

The power of the Great Dao Law contained in this [Azure Comb] spiritual treasure is quite unique. It is not much inferior to the power of the Great Dao Law of the gray-robed man, and it can barely be considered to be able to block that shuttle-shaped spiritual treasure.

Just as the two were locked in fierce combat, the presence of Zhou Chun and his two companions, along with a demon, who had arrived from within the Xia Kingdom, was quickly detected by the gray-robed man.

He glanced in the direction the three had come from, then sneered, "So those are the helpers you invited? What can three early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators do? Send them to self-destruct and injure the enemy?"

However, the smile did not last long, and it changed drastically after sensing the aura of the [Northern Darkness Mystic Kun].

He roared in a fit of rage, "Damn it! You actually colluded with the demon race and summoned that [Northern Darkness Black Kun] too!"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Changchun immediately laughed and said, "It's rare to see someone so exasperated!"

"court death!"

Enraged, the gray-robed man immediately moved, transforming into a gray phantom and lunging directly at Venerable Changchun.

And Venerable Changchun soon tasted the price of angering this person!

This gray-robed man did not seem to have a true physical body. When he attacked, the unique power of the Great Dao Law had a strong suppressive effect on the wood element Great Dao Law power that Venerable Changchun had mastered, causing him to be eroded every time he fought him.

Fortunately, Venerable Changchun, who truly displayed the strength of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, was no pushover. Even though the gray-robed man's methods were strange, it was impossible for him to take him down in a short time.

After less than fifteen minutes of fighting, Zhou Chun and his two companions arrived at the battlefield first.

"Fellow Daoists, please be careful. The power of the Great Dao Laws that this fiend wields is extremely strange, possessing powerful destructive and corrosive force. It's best to avoid letting its attacks get close and refrain from directly competing with it in the power of the Great Dao Laws!"

Venerable Changchun was very conscientious. As soon as the group arrived, he immediately informed them of the information he had personally gathered.

After being reminded by him, Zhou Chun and the others were alert and did not rush to join the battle. Instead, they discussed tactics among themselves.

Then, Tai Geng Divine Venerable and Ye Qingxuan each activated their Heavenly Treasure Flying Swords to slash at the gray-robed man, while Zhou Chun and his servants used their respective supernatural powers to assist in the attack, saving their treasures to help the two defend!

It is worth mentioning that, in order to ensure the success of this battle, the Tai Geng Divine Venerable gave the [Heavenly Crystal Spirit-Slaying Sword] to Ye Qingxuan for refinement in advance, allowing this true Nascent Soul stage sword cultivator to unleash his full power.

However, because the gray-robed man did not seem to possess a true physical body, the attacks from the two sword cultivators were not particularly effective against him.

The power of the Great Dao of Destruction that he possessed was extremely domineering. Even the powerful sword intent of two Nascent Soul sword cultivators could hardly tear it apart and annihilate it!

However, with the addition of two more attackers to restrain him, and the flanking maneuvering by Zhou Chun and his servants, the pressure on Venerable Changchun was somewhat reduced, making the situation less dangerous than before.

Moreover, just a few hundred breaths after Zhou Chun and the others joined the battle, the enormous body of [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] also appeared on the battlefield.

"Fellow Daoist Lingzun, your arrival is timely! This fiend has already been injured by me and is now in a weakened state. If we join forces, we will surely take his life!"

Venerable Changchun's eyes lit up, and he immediately called out loudly to [Beiming Xuankun].

Upon hearing this, the gray-robed man also said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist Lingzun, don't be fooled by these natives. You and I both come from the Upper Realm, and we will both return to the Upper Realm sooner or later. Why fight to the death over these lower realm natives? If that happens, we'll become a laughing stock in the Upper Realm!"

After hearing their conversation, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] turned its massive eyes to the gray-robed man and said in a deep, thunderous voice, "The aura emanating from you disgusts me! If my inherited memories are correct, you are a malevolent clone created by a Void Refinement stage human cultivator using a secret technique!"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Changchun and Zhou Chun and the others were slightly moved, finally realizing the true identity of the gray-robed man.

In contrast, the gray-robed man's eyes darkened immediately after [Beiming Xuankun] revealed his true identity, and he said coldly, "As expected of a descendant of a divine beast from the upper realm, you even know this!"

Seeing that he did not deny his words, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] immediately continued, "That's right! A malevolent clone like you is not allowed to return to the Upper Realm. If you dare to take the ascension passage back to the Upper Realm, your main body will arrange for a fellow Daoist to banish you!"

"Therefore, if you wish to return to the Upper Realm, you must break through to the Void Refinement stage upon your return, so that you will not be easily banished!"

"Now that you are cultivating the Great Dao of Extreme Yin Destruction, the fastest and most practical way to break through to the Void Refinement stage is to destroy all living beings in a world, and in the process, comprehend the true essence of the Great Dao of Destruction!"

At this point, ignoring the gray-robed man's increasingly unpleasant expression, he continued in a deep voice, "Although I am not a being of this realm, I was born and hatched here, and received some of the spiritual essence of this realm's Great Dao. If I hadn't discovered you, that would have been fine. But since I discovered you before my ascension, I naturally had to stop you!"

Upon hearing this, the gray-robed man said in a cold voice, "The enmity of obstructing our path is one of life and death. You'd better think it over!!"

Faced with such a threat, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] sneered and replied, "What? You think you can scare me? Don't even mention that you have little chance of successfully refining your Void Realm. Even if you did succeed, would you dare to go to the Northern Sea of ​​the Void to cause trouble for me after you reach the Upper Realm?!"

These words left the gray-robed man speechless and unable to utter a word!

In the end, all he could do was roar in anger, "Then I'll kill you right here in the mortal realm!"

After saying that, he took the initiative to attack [Bei Ming Xuan Kun].

Although he was powerful enough to defeat either Beiming Xuankun or Venerable Changchun alone, he was struggling when facing two opponents at the same time, along with several early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators like Zhou Chun.

As a divine beast from the upper realm, the [Beiming Xuankun] is inherently stronger than ordinary cultivators of the same level. Moreover, it has thick skin and strong recovery ability. Therefore, it is far less afraid of the gray-robed man's extreme yin destruction law power than Venerable Changchun.

With him acting as a giant meat shield to draw fire, Venerable Changchun became much more relaxed, not to mention Zhou Chun and the others!

Although the gray-robed man was at a significant disadvantage in their attack, his unique nature still made it difficult for them to truly eliminate him.

After all, he was an evil clone created by the Void Refinement stage expert "Yuan Tian Shang Zun". Even though he was limited by his cultivation level and could not use Void Refinement techniques, he was still essentially related to Void Refinement stage cultivators.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have survived for tens of thousands of years and still be alive today!

Therefore, after fighting for some time, seeing that the gray-robed man was impossible to kill, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] transmitted his voice to Venerable Changchun: "Fellow Daoist Changchun, this fiend possesses the indestructible primordial spirit of a Void Refinement stage cultivator. With our strength, there is virtually no chance of truly killing him. You should stick to your original plan and leave this realm with him to ascend!"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Changchun immediately replied, "Fellow Daoist Lingzun is right, but since this fiend is an incarnation of evil thoughts severed by Senior Yuantian Shangzun, even if it leaves this realm with me, I'm afraid it won't be willing to set aside past grievances and ascend together with me!"

[Bei Ming Xuan Kun] understood his meaning perfectly after hearing his answer.

After a moment's thought, he continued, "It's not impossible for me to ascend with you, but how can you guarantee that after we leave, your human race won't annihilate the dragon clan?"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Changchun quickly replied in a deep voice, "I can persuade the other fellow Daoists present to swear an oath that as long as these few Daoists do not make a move, even if the other Daoists do, they will not be able to pose any threat to the Flood Dragon Clan!"

"Alright, let's see if you can convince them!"

[Bei Ming Xuan Kun] glanced at Zhou Chun and the other two. He had previously learned from the Golden Horned Dragon Saint that these three were the most promising cultivators among the human race. If the three of them could swear not to attack the Dragon Abyss Flood Dragon Clan, there would definitely be no problem with the Golden Horned Dragon Saint.

After gaining his approval, Venerable Changchun immediately communicated with Zhou Chun and the other two via telepathy.

As for the reasons to persuade Zhou Chun and the other two to agree, those were readily available.

Now that they have become enemies with the gray-robed man and know his true identity and purpose, if they cannot force him to ascend, who will be his opponent once Venerable Changchun and [Beiming Xuankun] ascend?

Unwilling to listen to Venerable Changchun's words, Zhou Chun replied telepathically, "Senior Changchun, we sincerely congratulate you and this fellow Daoist Lingzun on your ascension to the Upper Realm. We are also willing to set aside our grudges with the Flood Dragon Clan to save the beings of this realm. However, before you two ascend, could you perhaps leave us with some thoughts for our own future ascension?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Qingxuan replied, "Indeed, with your departure, the path to ascension in this realm is practically severed. This is far too cruel to us younger generations!"

Both of them were still young and had just entered a new era, so they naturally had expectations for ascending to the upper realm.

However, their conditions undoubtedly put Venerable Changchun in a difficult position.

After hesitating for a moment, he replied in a low voice, "I'm afraid I can't be of much help with this matter. Let me ask Fellow Daoist Lingzun!"

After saying that, he transmitted Zhou Chun and the other person's conditions to [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] via telepathy.

To his surprise, after hearing his telepathic message, [Beiming Xuankun] directly said, "This is easy to resolve. I can leave them a bit of my primordial blood. If I successfully return to the Upper Realm, I can advance to the seventh rank in two or three thousand years at most. At that time, under the echo of the Great Dao, this bit of primordial blood will naturally guide them to the location of my true body!"

If it points to the location of the [Northern Darkness Mystic Kun], isn't that leading Zhou Chun and the others to the lair of the demon race in the upper realm?

Although Venerable Changchun thought this to himself, he did not point it out. Instead, he replied with gratitude, "Since Fellow Daoist Lingzun possesses such abilities, then I will thank you on their behalf!"

After saying that, he explained the meaning of [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] to Zhou Chun and the others.

Zhou Chun and the others were not fools, and they knew the drawbacks of the guidance of the [Northern Darkness Profound Kun] Origin True Blood.

But compared to having no hope at all, at least this is a glimmer of hope.

Therefore, they didn't hesitate much and quickly agreed.

So, the [Northern Darkness Profound Kun] quickly opened its mouth and spat out seven beams of blue spiritual light that flew towards Zhou Chun and the others.

After Zhou Chun caught the blue spiritual light, he looked closely and saw that it was actually a fist-sized ice crystal, inside which was sealed a drop of blue true blood, which had transformed into the shape of the [Northern Darkness Mystic Kun].

In addition to giving them this so-called primordial blood, [Beiming Xuankun] also gave them a secret method to refine the primordial blood and sense the location of their own bodies.

Such "good intentions" truly left Zhou Chun and the others at a loss for words.

This is a blatant and overt conspiracy by the other side!

But even though they know this, they still obediently take the bait!

After obtaining the original blood and secret techniques of the [Northern Darkness Profound Kun], Zhou Chun and the others immediately swore an oath, vowing that they would not take the initiative to attack the Dragon Abyss Flood Dragon Clan within their lifetimes.

The gray-robed man was startled by this sight and shouted angrily, "What do you want to do?"

"Haha, Senior Yuan Zun, since you so wish to travel to the Upper Realm to find Senior Yuan Tian Shang Zun, then let this junior escort you on your journey!"

Venerable Changchun laughed heartily and immediately used all his strength to activate the power of the Great Dao Laws, attracting the attention of the Great Dao Will of this world.

On the other side, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] did the same thing, but with an even greater momentum!

Such powerful beings usually try not to fully activate the power of the Great Dao's laws, because doing so would easily attract the attention of the Great Dao's will and forcibly banish them from this realm.

But now they are doing it on their own initiative, and the gray-robed man is also forcibly taken away.

As a result of their actions, a seven-colored vortex quickly appeared in the sky, and at the same time, an incomparably majestic and immense pressure acted on everyone's hearts, as if they were being watched by some powerful being.

Then, as Zhou Chun and the others witnessed, the gray-robed man, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun], and Venerable Chang Chun, all of whom had reached the limit of this world's capacity, were forcibly sucked into the seven-colored vortex and disappeared without a trace!

"This could barely be considered ascension to immortality!!"

In the sky, watching the gradually dissipating seven-colored vortex, Zhou Chun couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Perhaps! We must leave some hope and motivation for future cultivators!"

Tai Geng God responded with a sigh, then looked at the ice crystal in his hand and fell silent.

[Bei Ming Xuan Kun] gave out seven ice crystals. He got two, Ye Qingxuan also got two, and Zhou Chun got three.

Although these things could cause endless trouble, in a sense they could be considered the most precious things in this world!

Ye Qingxuan, however, didn't seem to share the same sentiments as the two. Seeing that they remained silent, he said softly, "This matter is settled; we can leave now."

Upon hearing his words, the Divine Lord Tai Geng seemed to come to his senses and immediately sighed, "Withdraw! From today onwards, this realm will enjoy ten thousand years of peace!"

The three then left the Demon Spirit Canyon together and headed straight for Changchun Valley.

They hadn't forgotten that Venerable Changchun had promised to leave everything in Changchun Valley to them.

When the three arrived at Changchun Valley, "Li Niang" seemed to have been instructed in advance and took the initiative to open the formation to welcome them in.

After welcoming the three into the valley, she bowed to them and said, "The master said that everything in Changchun Valley belongs to the three seniors. This is the bill for all the spiritual items inside. Please take a look!"

He then took out a bill and handed it to the three of them. (End of Chapter)
