Chapter 211: Di Jun Exits Seclusion, Fury Soars to the Heavens

"Who is responsible for this?" Hongyun looked around with a dark face, his eyes full of shock and suspicion.

It was Nuwa's voice; the moment she discovered the World-Destroying Mill, she had sent a sound transmission to Tian Yuan.

Yet, even though some time had clearly passed, that transmission had only just emerged from within Mount Sumeru, as if it had been intercepted by someone.

Nuwa is a Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal and also enjoys the Saint Fruit Position of Humanity in the Primordial World; who could possibly block her sound transmission?

Nuwa, standing to the side, did not speak; she projected her terrifying Divine Sense, which rippled outward with Mount Sumeru as the center.

However, neither of their Divine Senses discovered anything.

In the distant sky, colorful light surged, and a figure fled over rapidly; it was none other than Tian Yuan.

"You two..." Tian Yuan, upon appearing and seeing the two in the sky, wore a look of suspicion.

Tian Yuan had left the matters of the Western Earth Veins and Xuanming to Gonggong and Nuwa, while he continued to focus on refining the stars that filled the sky.

But he had just suddenly received a sound transmission from Nuwa, stating that the Chaos Treasure, the World-Destroying Mill, had been discovered beneath Mount Sumeru.

The moment he received this news, he hurried over.

A Chaos Treasure, the World-Destroying Mill which represents one of the Five Supreme Laws—how could Tian Yuan not be tempted?

Yet, just as he arrived at Mount Sumeru, he saw Nuwa and Hongyun standing in the air.

The World-Destroying Mill was inside Mount Sumeru, and there were no abnormalities to be seen in the surroundings.

He had rushed over at the fastest speed possible; could it have already been taken by someone? "Fellow Daoist! Things are a bit strange." Nuwa stepped forward, her expression solemn.

Hongyun, following behind, also wore a grave expression.

Seeing their expressions, Tian Yuan frowned slightly; had an accident occurred with the World-Destroying Mill? His terrifying Divine Sense probed the surroundings immediately, but apart from sensing the many arrays within Mount Sumeru, he discovered nothing.

With one step, Tian Yuan landed inside Mount Sumeru, his figure passing through the dense arrays.

What appeared before his eyes was an endless blood-colored void; there was nothing left, and even the figures of the Western Two Sages had disappeared.

"What? Someone intercepted your transmission?" Tian Yuan turned his head abruptly, looking at Nuwa in astonishment.

So it wasn't just that there was a problem with the World-Destroying Mill; there was actually such a bizarre occurrence as well.

Nuwa did not explain, only nodding heavily.

If she hadn't experienced it herself, she wouldn't have dared to believe such a thing could happen.

Aside from the Dao Ancestor in Purple Heaven Palace, they were the ceiling of combat power in the Primordial World; who else had such ability? If it were the work of Hongjun, since he had already made a move, it made no sense for it to end there.

Regarding this strange matter, Nuwa truly could not understand it.

Tian Yuan locked his brows, his gaze sweeping around the surroundings.

He did not sense the internal space of Mount Sumeru that Nuwa had spoken of, nor was there the slightest shadow of the World-Destroying Mill.

Even the aura of that Chaos Treasure was not present in the slightest; there were only the lingering fluctuations of Jieyin and Zhunti.

Hongyun stepped forward and asked softly, "Fellow Daoist, could it be that person from Purple Heaven Palace?"

Aside from Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Hongyun really could not think of anyone else who possessed such means.

Even for the Dao Ancestor of Purple Heaven Palace, Hongyun felt it was a bit exaggerated. Nuwa's cultivation was not weak, and she held a Saint Fruit Position, yet she was still so far behind Hongjun.

If this were true, Hongjun having merged his body with the Dao, his realm might even be above theirs.

"It shouldn't be!" Tian Yuan shook his head.

Tian Yuan was still very wary of that person from Purple Heaven Palace; with his ability, if he were to make a move, it would never be just this.

"This..." Hongyun's expression went blank upon hearing this.

If it wasn't Hongjun, then it was someone else; could there really be such a powerful figure in the Primordial World? Having come into contact with the interior of Mount Sumeru and the Chaos Treasure, the World-Destroying Mill, Hongyun knew the world was not simple, but this was a bit too exaggerated.

They were Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortals; who else could be stronger than them... As Hongyun thought this, a sudden idea flashed through his mind, and coincidentally, Nuwa's exclamation sounded from the side: "Are there other Chaos Demons in the Primordial World?"

Aside from Chaos Demons, Nuwa could not think of any other possibility.

Xuanming obtaining an opportunity within Mount Sumeru must certainly be related to a Chaos Demon.

Otherwise, with Xuanming's ability, it would be impossible to come into contact with a Chaos Treasure.

This was the interior of Mount Sumeru, the dojo of the Western Two Sages; neither Jieyin nor Zhunti had discovered it first.

Xuanming's strength was not particularly outstanding, and more importantly, her Primordial Spirit was weak, almost negligible; it was even more impossible for her to have discovered this place.

That left only one conclusion: there was someone behind the other party.

"It must be Demon Ancestor Luohou without a doubt!" Tian Yuan also nodded slightly.

The Western Earth Veins were related to both Xuanming and Demon Qi, and Xuanming was hidden within the World-Destroying Mill; more importantly, this was the Western Land. All the information pointed to that one person.

As one of the very few Chaos Demons who survived the Opening Heaven Tribulation, it was indeed not so easy for him to perish.

"Luohou?" Nuwa and Hongyun exclaimed in low voices.

When they guessed it was related to a Chaos Demon, this figure had flashed through their minds. Now that Tian Yuan spoke in this manner, it was undoubtedly Luohou.

"Fellow Daoist, this matter is not simple then." Nuwa looked around, her face heavy with gravity.

Among the three thousand Chaos Demons, Luohou's prestige was far above Hongjun's. It was only because of the Demon-Dao Dispute that Hongjun was able to come to the fore.

Now that the Western Earth Veins were related to Luohou, the matter of the Earth Veins was likely to be troublesome.

"It's fine! You two go back first; I will investigate here a bit more!" Tian Yuan waved his hand, not paying much mind to it.

The appearance of Luohou had long been within his expectations; the only surprise was the World-Destroying Mill.

That this former Demon Ancestor used such means and still dared not appear meant his injuries had not yet recovered.

Moreover, Tian Yuan faintly suspected that Luohou was not targeting Nuwa; he was guarding against the Dao Ancestor of Purple Heaven Palace.

He did not want the news of the World-Destroying Mill to be known by Hongjun immediately, so he locked down Mount Sumeru; Nuwa could only be considered an accident.

These Chaos Demons were indeed arrogant; he had already achieved such accomplishments, yet he was still not taken seriously by them.

No wonder there were so many changes in the Primordial World, and even when he passed down the Hunyuan Dao, Hongjun had no reaction.

It was indeed very correct that he did not choose to rashly head to Purple Heaven Palace.

Nuwa and Hongyun nodded, bowed to Tian Yuan, and their figures disappeared from the scene.

Since Tian Yuan had come in person, there was no point in them staying.

Hongyun had just broken through and needed to calm his mind to gain insights, and Nuwa was busy going to the banks of the Weishui to protect Fuxi.

A thick will rose up and quickly probed toward the blood-colored void, but just like before, it discovered nothing.

As for the Chaos Treasure, the World-Destroying Mill, its whereabouts were also unknown.

After searching carefully, Tian Yuan murmured softly, "It seems I must wait for Houtu to refine the Earthly Dao Will that shrouds the Sea of Blood."

This void was filled with dense blood mist; it originated from the Sea of Blood, and perhaps one could learn a thing or two by utilizing the Sea of Blood.

After taking a deep look at the space before him, Tian Yuan appeared on Mount Sumeru.

His Divine Sense had long since scanned Mount Sumeru inside and out, and there was no sign of Jieyin or Zhunti.

"These two fellows really run fast!" Tian Yuan muttered, his expression somewhat sullen. Taking advantage of the opportunity of being out, he had intended to capture Jieyin and Zhunti to complete the laws of his Consciousness Space, but he hadn't expected these two to be so cautious.

A Heavenly Dao Saint's Primordial Spirit is entrusted to the Heavenly Dao; if they were determined to hide, Tian Yuan truly had no way to find them.

It is true that Merit Sanctification is a shortcut, but they still enjoy the Saint Fruit Position and retain some advantages in the Primordial World.

Mount Sumeru held quite a few of Jieyin and Zhunti's possessions, but Tian Yuan only glanced at them and paid them no mind.

Although this was the dojo of the Western Sect, it was still a part of the Primordial World; furthermore, the Western Region was already thin in spiritual energy, so Tian Yuan had no reason to take anything away.

If Jieyin and Zhunti were focused on improving the Western World, Tian Yuan wouldn't mind helping them, but these two fellows only thought about robbing Peter to pay Paul and were nothing but opportunists.

His Divine Sense, centered on Mount Sumeru, quickly swept toward the surroundings.

After a long while, Tian Yuan opened his eyes, a flash of disappointment crossing his face.

With his current strength, while he couldn't cover the entire Western Land, the vast majority of it was under his Divine Sense.

Yet he did not discover the aura of Xuanming, nor did he feel the fluctuations of the World-Destroying Mill.

Supreme treasures have spirits; without the necessary fortune, others likely cannot find them.

With a hint of regret, he looked at Mount Sumeru beneath him and Tian Yuan leaped toward the Starry Sky.

If it weren't for the matter concerning the Chaos Treasure, he would never have come to the Western World. Now that there were no discoveries, he should naturally return immediately to refine more stars.

Compared to the Western Earth Veins, Tian Yuan was more thirsty for the Heavenly Dao Will.

If he could revive the Heavenly Dao Will in his Consciousness Space, Mount Buzhou would surely undergo a great transformation.

After Tian Yuan left, two rays of light, one gold and one silver, streaked across the air and manifested on the peak of Mount Sumeru; they were none other than the secretly departed Jieyin and Zhunti.

Standing in the air, the two scanned Mount Sumeru beneath them, then looked in the direction Tian Yuan had left, both of their faces filled with confusion.

Zhunti asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother, is this Tian Yuan really so kind-hearted?"

Previously, in the internal space of Mount Sumeru, the moment they sensed Tian Yuan's aura, the two had fled in a panic.

In front of Nuwa and Hongyun, they had the strength to escape, but they had no confidence at all in Tian Yuan's hands.

Therefore, the moment they sensed the other's aura, the two fled without a second thought, not even taking their belongings.

They had originally thought that Mount Sumeru would surely be looted by Tian Yuan, and they had felt a wave of heartache.

To improve the spiritual energy on Mount Sumeru, the many Spiritual Roots they had collected were all planted on the mountain.

Who would have thought that upon returning, the other party hadn't touched a single blade of grass or tree, which truly left Zhunti astonished.

"I do not know either!" Jieyin shook his head, also unable to understand.

Although their Mount Sumeru could not compare to Mount Buzhou, it was still a rare immortal mountain and blessed land in the Eastern Land, and there were many Spiritual Roots and spiritual plants, yet Tian Yuan had turned a blind eye to them.

After the first sermon at Purple Heaven Palace, they had formed a grudge with Tian Yuan on Mount Buzhou, and more importantly, because of the Dao Ancestor, their relationship with Tian Yuan was even more delicate.

Tian Yuan's actions were truly difficult for them to comprehend.

Looking at the still-weak Zhunti, Jieyin said softly, "It would be best to make a trip to Chaos and recover your Saint Body as soon as possible."

A Heavenly Dao Saint's Primordial Spirit is entrusted to the Heavenly Dao, making them almost immortal, but the Saint Body is also no ordinary thing.

Zhunti's Saint Body had been destroyed and required a vast amount of magic power to re-condense; the Western Region was already thin in spiritual energy, and if he were to absorb it, the situation would likely become even worse, so he could only go to Chaos.

"Yes! Senior Brother, please protect me!" Zhunti nodded.

After Tian Yuan left, they had rushed over just to see the state of Mount Sumeru; now that there were no losses, their priority was naturally to recover their strength.

The two said no more, disappeared from the scene together, and fled into Chaos.

At this moment, in the Primordial Starry Sky, Tian Yuan arrived at the depths of the Zhou Tian Star Formation once again, familiar with the path.

Although he had not yet taken control of the Heavenly Dao Will, having refined quite a few stars, he could already easily enter that space.

Just as Tian Yuan was about to flee toward a star, he abruptly stopped his movement and turned his head to look in the direction of the Sun Star.

There, a powerful aura surged up, shrouding a vast area of the void.

"Di Jun's aura; he is about to break through." Tian Yuan's eyes lit up, his face showing joy.

If it weren't for the fact that Di Jun, Taiyi, and the others were at a critical juncture in their cultivation, he would have captured the three of them long ago and thrown them into the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space.

Now that Di Jun had successfully broken through, there was no need for further hesitation, and it was the perfect time to test the power of a Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal.

He had previously fought with Nuwa, but after all, they were acquaintances, and many methods were difficult to employ; this Di Jun, however, was different.

While beginning to refine stars, Tian Yuan waited for Di Jun's breakthrough.

Amidst the rolling Great Sun Golden Flame, Di Jun let out a loud cry, then opened his mouth and took a fierce breath.

Immediately, the numerous Great Sun Golden Flames shrouding the surroundings were all poured into his mouth, and a more powerful momentum surged up at once.

A terrifying momentum swept out, and Di Jun spread his pitch-black wings, with dense golden flames falling down and descending across the entire void.

"Hahaha, Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal! I have finally stepped into the Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal realm!" Di Jun laughed toward the sky, his voice filled with joy.

To take this step, he had cultivated for how many years, and now he had finally done it.

Tian Yuan, that detestable Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain, he must burn him to ashes.

Sensing that Taiyi and Wangshu were still in deep meditation, a flash of arrogance crossed Di Jun's eyes, and he immediately spread his wings and flew out of the power of the Taiyin and Sun that were intermingling.

The three in the field were all extraordinary, and being able to be the first to break through, Di Jun was still somewhat pleased.

But just as he flew out of the shrouding energy, Di Jun's figure shook, his eyes filled with disbelief, followed immediately by monstrous rage.

Luck, the luck shrouding the Demon Court had actually drained away by more than half, with only wisps remaining.

He and Taiyi had only been in closed-door cultivation, not fallen; why had so much luck drained away?

What great event had occurred in the Demon Court?

With a face full of shock and rage, Di Jun immediately calmed his mind and began to sense the situation of the Demon Court through Heaven and Earth Luck.

In almost an instant, Di Jun understood the state of the Demon Court.

It was over, the Demon Court was completely finished; not to mention those various Demon Gods and Demon Saints, even the Demon Race at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm had hardly any left.

Those countless members of the Demon Race had also been lost by more than half, and they were almost all those with weak strength.

Di Jun learned everything: during the time he was in closed-door cultivation, Tian Yuan had forcibly broken into the Thirty-Three Heavens, captured all the Demon Gods and Demon Saints, and shattered the Heaven and Earth Luck gathered by the Demon Court.

"Tian Yuan!!!!!" Di Jun roared hoarsely.

Beyond his rage, there was also deep shock and suspicion; the Demon Court had vast luck gathered, yet Tian Yuan had not suffered any backlash.

But none of that mattered now; he had stepped into the Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal realm and would definitely make that Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain pay.

In the ears of the furious Di Jun, a gentle voice arrived. "Why does the Demon Emperor summon me?"

Di Jun, whose entire body was rolling with flames, stiffened and immediately turned his head to look.

He saw not far away, a figure walking over with a smile; it was precisely that Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain.
