Chapter 208: The Chaos Supreme Treasure within Mount Sumeru

Jieyin and Zhunti, who were just about to probe the space before them, suddenly felt a gaze upon them.

Startled, the two immediately looked toward Houtu at the edge of the Sea of Blood, just in time to meet a pair of indifferent eyes.

"Oh no, we've been discovered!"

"Junior brother! Retreat quickly!"

Two exclamations exploded, and Jieyin and Zhunti withdrew their probing Heavenly Dao Will at almost the same time.

Houtu had not yet become a Saint, nor had she proven the Dao to Hunyuan; they had not expected her to discover them so quickly.

As their will was withdrawn, the images rising within the blood mist vanished in an instant, leaving only the Sea of Blood with its many figures kneeling before them.

The two did not move, looking around as if facing a formidable enemy.

Houtu looked somewhat extraordinary, but what truly terrified them was, naturally, the Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain.

When they first discovered this space, they had thought Minghe was hiding inside, but they had not expected it to be the Ancestral Witch Houtu.

The Sea of Blood had birthed Minghe, and this place was his base camp, yet it had turned into such a scene.

Now, the two could be completely certain that Minghe had indeed been suppressed by Tian Yuan.

Otherwise, how could such heaven-defying fortune have fallen into Houtu's hands?

The surroundings were deathly silent, and the scene they had imagined of Tian Yuan bursting out did not occur, which made the Western Two Sages heave a sigh of relief.

Yet, as the two regained their composure, their expressions began to turn grave.

Originally, they had only been curious about Nuwa's movements, never expecting such an unexpected discovery.

The Nether Blood Sea lay beneath the Western Land; if it were controlled by Houtu, and with Tian Yuan behind her, this meant Tian Yuan's hand had reached directly from the East to beneath their Mount Sumeru.

They had not even begun to plot against the Eastern Land, yet Tian Yuan had taken the initiative to scheme against them.

The many thoughts flashing rapidly through their minds made Jieyin and Zhunti's expressions grow exceptionally solemn.

What did Tian Yuan want? Was it unintentional or done on purpose?

The West was barren and simply could not compare to the East; even if Tian Yuan were to take action, he should have targeted the Three Pure Ones first—why plot against their Western Sect?

After establishing their sect and becoming Saints, although they had always had designs on the Eastern Land, they had made no other moves besides the trip to the Demon Court last time.

Moreover, that visit to the Demon Court had only occurred after Minghe went missing.

After a long while, Zhunti was the first to speak: "Senior brother, let us return to Mount Sumeru and take a look!"

Mount Buzhou contained its own space, and the Sea of Blood also held a world of its own; Zhunti could not help but suspect that there might also be a world within Mount Sumeru.

Jieyin naturally nodded, and the two figures slowly vanished from the scene.

Although this trip had not revealed the purpose of Nuwa's arrival, it could be considered a gain; at least they had gained insight into the affairs of the Sea of Blood.

As for what exactly Tian Yuan intended, they had no way of knowing with their current strength and could only strive to cultivate.

Only when thinking of the luck shrouding the Western Sect did Jieyin and Zhunti feel a wave of gloom in their hearts.

Aside from possessing two Heavenly Dao Saints, the Western Sect truly had nothing worth boasting about.

Great Teaching Luck was related to living beings, and Humanity Luck had fallen to the Eastern Land; the two truly had no other options.

In the short term, there would be no major changes in their strength.

"These two fellows are too cautious!" Feeling the connection snap instantly, a strange look appeared in Houtu's eyes.

Although she had realized her own Dao, she was still only a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, while Jieyin and Zhunti were both Heavenly Dao Saints.

She had not expected them to flee in a panic the moment she discovered them.

Houtu understood in her heart that it was all because of Tian Yuan that the Western Two Sages were so fearful.

Putting aside the distracting thoughts in her mind, Houtu probed carefully with her Earthly Dao Will, her expression gradually turning to one of astonishment.

Heavenly Dao Will!

Jieyin and Zhunti had actually used Heavenly Dao Will to connect to the Sea of Blood and communicate with the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space.

The Sea of Blood belonged to the Netherworld and was also shrouded by Earthly Dao Will; logically, Jieyin and Zhunti should have been unable to perceive this world, yet they had succeeded.

"Hoo!"

With a sunken face, Houtu took a deep breath, her eyes filled with gravity.

The Sea of Blood, or rather the Netherworld, still held some of Hongjun's schemes, yet she had not been aware of them.

Only by having Heavenly Dao Will remain in the Netherworld could the Western Two Sages have peered into the Consciousness Space.

"I must speed up the restoration of the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk!" Houtu whispered, closing her eyes to cultivate in peace.

Strength was the foundation of everything; Hongyun had already become a Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, and she had to accelerate her pace.

Only by proving the Dao to Hunyuan and opening the Underworld would she have the opportunity to investigate Hongjun's schemes for the Netherworld.

As for Jieyin and Zhunti, judging by the scene just now, they likely would not dare to come again.

Of course, if the two appeared in the Consciousness Space, they would not escape the fate of being crushed by Tian Yuan.

Heavenly Dao Saints had no advantage whatsoever in the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space.

Western World, inside Mount Sumeru.

Jieyin and Zhunti stared at the dense Dao Patterns rising before them, all stunned on the spot.

The moment they returned to the Western Land, they had fled into the interior of Mount Sumeru.

Their Divine Sense had passed through without finding anything, but when they shrouded it with Heavenly Dao Will, layers of folds actually rose up.

They had long known that Mount Sumeru was shrouded by an Array, but they had never discovered anything.

After they first became Saints, they had come here together, but aside from the blood mist with no known end, they had found nothing else.

Later, they simply assumed it had been set up by the Dao Ancestor to protect the Ancestral Vein of the Western World, so they had not thought much of it.

Now, probing with their will, they had made a different discovery.

"Senior brother, what is going on here?" Zhunti widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

They were among the few Innate Sacred of the West; after the Demon-Dao Dispute, Mount Sumeru had become their dojo.

As the former Western Ancestral Vein, they had long ago turned Mount Sumeru inside out countless times; almost all the treasures that could be found had already fallen into their hands.

Mount Sumeru is the premier divine mountain of the Western Region, so it is not strange that its internal space is vast, and since the Sea of Blood lies beneath the Western Land, it is also normal for blood mist to permeate the area.

After all, that fellow Minghe had long been thinking of laying his hands on the Western Land.

Yet, although the Western Earth Veins were destroyed, Mount Sumeru is no ordinary immortal mountain; how could it be easily eroded?

Although blood mist permeates the area beneath the mountain, it fundamentally cannot affect their Western Sect. This is also one of the reasons the two plotted against the Sea of Blood; that fellow Minghe is very restless.

But looking at the situation now, in this blood-colored void, there is actually a hidden world.

"Be careful!" Hidden so deeply, it is absolutely not that simple.

As Jieyin spoke, the Heavenly Dao Will simultaneously manifested on his body, and the ripples in the surrounding blood mist began to become clear, with bright light refracting out from within.

As the bright light gradually grew stronger, a thick aura of laws vaguely leaked out.

Jieyin and Zhunti, who were originally anxious in their hearts, looked at each other, and their faces were instantly filled with anticipation.

Never did they expect that beneath their dojo, Mount Sumeru, there would truly be a fortuitous encounter of their own.

Perhaps it would not be long before their strength would also greatly increase.

Through the rays of light that kept leaking out, the two could vaguely see a colossal object, accompanied by the aura of Chaos wafting out.

Upon staring for a moment, they actually felt their Primordial Spirits under a crushing pressure, startling the two into quickly averting their gaze.

Within the refracted light, there was an inexplicable rhythm; it was the aura of the origin. The two, who were originally trembling, felt their hearts grow hot again, and their eyes became burning with desire.

A fortuitous encounter! A great fortuitous encounter! A heaven-sent fortuitous encounter!

To have Chaos Qi and be able to grind down the Primordial Spirit of a Heavenly Dao Saint—this is absolutely a great stroke of fortune.

Originally, they had only seen that a space was hidden within the Sea of Blood and thought that since Mount Sumeru was extraordinary, it might also have its own opportunities; they did not expect it to truly be so.

With excited expressions, Jieyin and Zhunti fully channeled the Heavenly Dao Will they wielded.

The wrinkles rolling in the air became increasingly obvious, finally resembling a portal rippling with waves.

Jieyin and Zhunti held their breath and stepped into the ripples together.

In a trance, the two seemed to pass through countless spaces; with the stars shifting and the world turning, they both fell into a dim world.

Jieyin and Zhunti, faces full of anticipation, immediately raised their heads to look into the distance.

On the horizon, a huge grinding disc tilted in the air, with Chaos surging all around, emitting an ancient and desolate aura.

They felt their bodies sink; there was no murderous intent, yet it was like falling into ten-thousand-year-old ice, and their Primordial Spirits trembled slightly.

Terrified, the two hurriedly looked closely, and their bodies instantly trembled, staring blankly into the distance.

On that grinding disc floating in the Chaos, a ferocious figure lay prone, emitting a cold and icy aura.

They were so far apart, yet just by staring slightly at the grinding disc, they felt such terrifying might. Now, there is actually a living being lying prone upon it; what kind of existence is this? Beyond a Saint?

Jieyin and Zhunti looked at each other; in their eyes were shock, doubt, and hesitation.

It is true that they are Heavenly Dao Saints, and their Primordial Spirits are entrusted to the Heavenly Dao, but at this very moment, both clearly understand that the Primordial World is not as simple as they imagined.

Even Minghe, who became a Saint, was suppressed; it is not impossible that there are other special existences.

Moreover, the aura leaking out from this void is truly too terrifying.

The figure in the distance is shrouded by the overflowing Chaos, so it cannot be seen clearly. Furthermore, the marvelous use of the Heavenly Dao Will makes them understand that the Primordial World may have another realm.

The two were hesitating in their hearts when their bodies suddenly stiffened, and they simultaneously raised their heads stiffly to look.

Jieyin and Zhunti's breathing hitched, and they stared at the distance in astonishment.

They met a pair of cold eyes; it was the terrifying creature lying prone on the grinding disc.

That cold figure slowly stood up, incomparably massive, with the power of Chaos circling it. At this moment, the two also saw the full appearance of the creature and recognized the other party.

"How is this possible?" Zhunti exclaimed loudly, his face full of disbelief.

Beside him, Jieyin also widened his eyes, the whole person likewise stunned in place, as if seeing an unimaginable monstrosity.

The two Heavenly Dao Saints standing in the air had nothing in their eyes but the figure slowly rising in the distance.

A towering body, covered all over with terrifying bone spurs. A cold murderous intent rolled toward them, and Jieyin and Zhunti could not help but shiver.

"Why are you here?" Zhunti could not help but roar loudly again.

This is beneath Mount Sumeru, the dojo of them, the Western Two Sages, and also a space they connected with the Heavenly Dao Will; it should belong to them.

It was one thing for the Nether Blood Sea to be taken by Houtu, but they did not expect that this place beneath Mount Sumeru would also be stolen by someone else.

Beyond the shock, Zhunti's chest was filled with soaring rage.

With the flowing Chaos Qi and the many laws wandering about, it is very clear that there is a great opportunity here, yet someone had arrived first; how could Zhunti be willing to accept this?

Beside him, Jieyin did not speak, his pair of Chaos eyes staring fixedly at that grinding disc.

A Chaos Treasure!

This grinding disc leaking Chaos Qi must be a Chaos Treasure; this is an opportunity he had never imagined.

If they could wield a Chaos Treasure, they, the Western Two Sages, would absolutely be the strongest existences in the Primordial World.

Jieyin withdrew his gaze and looked with a solemn expression at the violent figure on the grinding disc.

"This is beneath Mount Sumeru; this treasure shall belong to us!" Jieyin shouted, leaping forward, actually being the first to rush over.

Beside him, Zhunti surged forward at almost the same time.

Two rays of light, one gold and one silver, streaked across, attacking the ferocious giant beast.

Such a heaven-shaking great opportunity—no matter how dangerous it is, they must go and investigate.

Setting aside other fortuitous encounters, that Chaos Treasure alone is worth them taking action.

That is a Chaos Treasure; I fear even the Dao Ancestor in Purple Heaven Palace might not possess one.

If they could obtain a Chaos Treasure, never mind the Three Pure Ones, even the Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain would not be in their eyes.

At that time, they, the Western Two Sages, would be the strongest existences in the Primordial World!

Now, as long as they drive back that figure in the distance, the Chaos Treasure and the opportunities here will all belong to them!

Jieyin understood this clearly, and Zhunti was equally aware of it in his heart, so they took action without the slightest hesitation.

For such a heaven-sent opportunity, even if Tian Yuan were standing in front of them, the two would still act without looking back.

"Hmm?" Nuwa, who had just landed on the Eastern Land, looked back in confusion.

A moment ago, a sharp fluctuation had come from the Western Region; it was the aura of Jieyin and Zhunti.

Nuwa did not move her figure, quietly sensing the movements on Mount Sumeru.

After waiting quietly for a moment, Nuwa muttered, "Strange, what are those two fellows doing?"

She had clearly felt the aftershocks of Jieyin and Zhunti's momentum, but it had returned to calm in an instant.

Sensing carefully again, there was no movement at all.

Withdrawing her gaze, Nuwa strode toward the banks of the Weishui.

She had already sensed the aura of Fuxi, who was currently shrouded in thick Dao Rhyme.

Her brother Fuxi had realized his own Dao, and this was a major event.

Her figure broke out from the void, and in the distance, a figure sat quietly; it was indeed Fuxi.

Just as she had thought, Fuxi was in the midst of enlightenment and would soon be Proving the Dao to Hunyuan.

Looking at the many members of the Human Race in the distance, a sense of pride rose in Nuwa unconsciously.

The Human Race she created was truly extraordinary! She had Proved the Dao to Hunyuan by creating the Human Race, the Three Pure Ones had attained Merit Sanctification by establishing their sects through the Human Race, and now her brother's Dao also rested upon the Human Race.

In the future, even if the Human Race were to become the protagonists of heaven and earth, they would be no ordinary protagonists.

Sending a sound transmission to Tian Yuan, Nuwa waited on the scene; she wanted to protect Fuxi.

In the Northern Land, Gonggong's figure suddenly sprang up, his eyes filled with surprise.

Without the slightest hesitation, he tore through the void and fled, following the resonance within his bloodline.

"How could it be on Mount Sumeru?" Gonggong looked at the sacred mountain before him, his face filled with astonishment.

Just now, he had sensed the bloodline aura of the Ancestral Witch Xuanming and flown here at top speed, never expecting it to be the Western Ancestral Vein.

Mount Sumeru was the dojo of Jieyin and Zhunti; how could Xuanming be involved with these two?

Gonggong did not understand, and he was too lazy to rack his brain, so he dove straight into the mountain.

When it concerned Xuanming, Gonggong did not care about any Heavenly Dao Saint.

Moreover, now that he had Tian Yuan as his backing, he feared the Western Two Sages even less.

As Gonggong landed, he saw a dense golden light bloom, and a huge Lotus Platform appeared, steadily covering Mount Sumeru.
