Chapter 314: Yangmei Has Gone Mad with Fury, Crisis on Mount Longevity!

Chen Ku's expression changed extremely quickly.

Even the Yangmei Great Immortal on the other side could tell.

For a moment, Yangmei grew even more alarmed.

Nothing else!

At that moment, Chen Ku's entire body suddenly burst forth with an even sharper, icier aura that made one's blood run cold.

If the earlier bout between them was merely a test of skill.

Then at this moment, Chen Ku truly harbored killing intent.

Yangmei was utterly baffled, not understanding why Chen Ku had suddenly become so violent and ferocious.

In fact, Chen Ku's killing intent was not aimed at Yangmei Great Immortal.

But was aimed at the demon race within the Primordial.

That earlier mental message was from no one else but his own master, Jieyin.

"Disciple, where are you? Hurry back to the Primordial!"

"Now the demon race runs rampant, stirring up slaughter, killing hundreds of millions of humans, and even the Three Pure Ones are lending aid."

"Only if you return might there be a chance to turn the tide."

Jieyin thus summoned Chen Ku from afar.

Perhaps Jieyin also knew that Chen Ku commanded the Heavenly Ear and Heart-Reading techniques.

Therefore, left with no choice, he used this method to inform Chen Ku of everything happening in the Primordial.

The demon race slaughters humans?!

In an instant, Chen Ku understood everything.

"Is this the tide of heavenly fate?!"

"It seems the demon race has already begun forging the Wu‑slaying sword."

Chen Ku muttered to himself.

The demon race forging the Wu‑slaying sword is a heavenly fate he has long known.

The reason he brought part of humanity back to the West and had the Wu Clan care for humanity was likewise to prevent the demon race from slaughtering humans.

But Chen Ku hadn't expected that, just as he broke through to the Mixed Yuan Grand Luo Golden Immortal, the demon race had already sensed the profundity of the Wu‑slaying sword and launched a shocking slaughter.

More importantly, this has already disturbed the peace and harmony of the Western realms.

Chen Ku felt heavy‑hearted.

Only now did he finally realize that his earlier unease, or rather his ominous premonition, stemmed from this.

After all, he is the Holy Father of humanity; although far from the Primordial, he can still faintly sense the catastrophe befalling humanity.

After a moment, he came to his senses.

Right now, he absolutely cannot continue to entangle with Yangmei.

After all, returning now to the Primordial to deal with the demon race's slaughter of humans is the most important.

With this thought, Chen Ku suddenly turned, his gaze piercingly fixed on Yangmei Great Immortal.

"Slash!"

He wasted no words, once again unleashing the third form of the Three Styles of Heaven Opening.

Seeing this, Yangmei was greatly startled!

This kid just had a solemn expression—how in the blink of an eye did he launch such a violent assault?!

No time to think, Yangmei had to immediately circulate his spatial law throughout his body, trying to bluntly withstand Chen Ku's strike.

However, caught off guard, Yangmei was this time forcibly driven back hundreds of thousands of li.

Moreover, the vast power pouring forth from the Three Styles of Heaven Opening caused Yangmei's qi and blood to surge tumultuously without cease.

"Damn it!"

Yangmei let out a low shout, hurriedly regulating his condition.

However, on the other side.

One blow temporarily repelled Yangmei, achieving Chen Ku's purpose.

He no longer gave Yangmei a chance to act, instead showing a hint of mockery.

"Hehe, this time I ought to thank Fellow Daoist Yangmei."

"Without Fellow Daoist's guidance, I could not possibly have obtained the Time Tower, this Chaos Spirit Treasure."

"And the Primordial Purple Qi gifted by Fellow Daoist."

"However, I must excuse myself from further accompaniment."

"You just go play in this Chaos by yourself."

"Arrogant!"

"Haughtily!"

Chen Ku's words were as if he were casually dismissing Yangmei Great Immortal.

Even the implication of his words was that the earlier great battle was merely playing with Yangmei Great Immortal.

Upon hearing this, Yangmei first froze, then immediately understood Chen Ku's meaning.

His pupils suddenly contracted sharply.

This kid wants to run?!

Yangmei's heart gave a jolt.

"You're joking!"

I have not yet captured this brat, and many spirit treasures are still not in hand.

How could Yang Mei Da Xian just watch Chen Ku 'escape' with his eyes wide open?

Hmph, want to run?!

Not that...

Yang Mei sneered, immediately constructing a spatial barrier, intending to completely seal off this region of Chaos, leaving Chen Ku with no way to retreat.

However, before he could finish his words.

Facing him, Chen Ku stopped wasting words.

With a thought, the Gate of All Marvels opened.

Now, with a full fifty percent boost to spatial law, this divine ability, when exercised, became as easy as moving one's arm, perfectly mastered.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the Gate of All Marvels had already appeared.

Afterward, Chen Ku once again left a mocking smile.

With a single step, he directly vanished before Yang Mei's eyes.

Instantly, Yang Mei's expression froze solid; the words he had yet to finish were forcibly swallowed back down.

He stared blankly at the empty scene before him.

Impossible!

Chen Ku just disappeared like that?!

Even though I master spatial law, I previously couldn't see it—what kind of divine ability is the Gate of All Marvels, exactly?!

Damn it, damn it!

Kid, get out here at once!

With such an illusion, don't even think of hiding it from this venerable one!

Regaining his senses, Yang Mei went completely berserk.

His hair flew wildly, his eyebrows extending like swaying willow branches.

Yang Mei's eyes nearly burst as he gritted his teeth and roared in all directions.

But after his words fell, a long time passed with no response at all.

After all, with the Gate of All Marvels' aid, Chen Ku had already returned to the Primordial World; it was not the illusion he thought.

Now, speaking of spatial divine abilities, Chen Ku, even if weaker than Yang Mei the Great Immortal, would not be far behind.

In the end, Yang Mei the Great Immortal had no choice but to accept this fact.

His face turned even darker, his eyes nearly bursting, his hatred and rage threatening to drive him mad.

A loss!

A bloody loss!

Damn it!

He himself, in order to lure Chen Ku into action, did not hesitate to throw out a bait like the Primordial Purple Qi.

Who could have imagined that, in the end, the Time Tower would be taken by Chen Ku, and the Primordial Purple Qi would be gone for good?

His scheme failed, instead causing him a huge loss!

At this moment, Yang Mei almost felt the urge to vomit blood.

After a long silence, he finally could no longer hold back, erupting completely.

Ah...

Yang Mei stared at the spot where Chen Ku had vanished, his furious roar like a thunderous explosion, akin to the roar of a Chaos beast.

Afterward, his gaze dark, he muttered to himself:

"Chen Ku, you can't escape!"

"This venerable one will surely retrieve you."

"Today's affair will make you repay a thousandfold, to the point of wishing you were dead."

In addition to his impotent fury, Yang Mei's heart held only a deep sense of unwillingness.

Needless to say, after today's events, Yang Mei truly bore a grudge against Chen Ku.

In the future, endless calamities will surely arise again!

At the same time!

In the Primordial World!

Beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, a sun‑shadowing shroud emerged, bringing immense pressure that made all beings tremble in awe, their scalps bursting.

Led by Di Jun and Taiyi, the various demon sages followed.

Moreover, there were countless elite troops of the Demon Race, a mighty and imposing force.

The Demon Race members halted not a moment, marching straight toward Mount Ten Thousand Longevity.

Watching this scene, all beings also understood the reason behind it.

"Hiss... Senior Zhen Yuanzi's generous protection of humanity has already thoroughly provoked the Demon Court, making him a top‑level powerhouse."

"Not bad, not bad—Di Jun, Taiyi and the others coming with such fury clearly intend to call Zhen Yuanzi to account!"

"Um... Zhen Yuanzi's involvement in this affair likely bodes more ill than good."

Some great beings whispered privately, sighing or exclaiming in this way.

Earlier, when Zhen Yuanzi acted powerfully to protect humanity, countless beings witnessed the scene.

Furthermore, nearly all of humanity now is converging toward Mount Ten Thousand Longevity.

Needless to say, anyone can see that Zhen Yuanzi's move is practically tantamount to opposing the Demon Court.

Di Jun and Taiyi's reaction, coming with such fury, is therefore quite understandable.

Moreover, some great beings showed worried expressions, believing Zhen Yuanzi's fate leans more toward misfortune.

After all, Di Jun Taiyi and the others are each existences barely different from Zhen Yuanzi.

Now, the strong ones of the Demon Court have all emerged, causing trouble at Ten Longevity Mountain.

How can Zhen Yuanzi alone possibly resist?!

Anyway, if it were ordinary beings, they would completely not know how to respond.

And this is all under the attention of all beings.

Finally, Di Jun Taiyi, leading endless elite troops of the Demon Race, finally descended upon the skies above Ten Longevity Mountain.

As Di Jun Taiyi looked down, his eyes burst with cold lightning, seizing people's hearts and souls.

A feeling that makes one's hair stand on end also spread out.

"Zhen Yuanzi!"

Taiyi opened his mouth with a cold shout, his voice shaking the universe, high above, his mighty aura overwhelming.

"How dare you interfere in the affairs of my Demon Race?!"

"Today, quickly hand over these humans here, and we may still not hold it against you."

Taiyi continued speaking.

His words were indeed like giving orders, commanding Zhen Yuanzi.

Below, seeing the Demon Race's strong ones arriving with ill intent, the human beings felt their scalps go numb and their livers and gallbladders about to burst.

One after another, figures shrank back, looking in terror at the Demon Court's people.

It is not that the human beings are overly timid.

Rather, it is the suppression of their qi that leaves only fear for the humans.

The aura of a quasi-sage expert is not something they can bear.

Upon hearing Taiyi's words, and then seeing the humans' fearful appearance,

Zhen Yuanzi at this moment, however, had a solemn expression, yet was extremely resolute.

He gestured to the human beings that they need not be overly frightened.

Then, he stepped out, manifesting outside the Five Zhuang Temple, facing off against Di Jun Taiyi and the others across the void.

"Di Jun Taiyi!"

"This Ten Longevity Mountain is where my Dao resides."

"You today bring Demon Race beings to trespass my Dao field—do you think I am weak and can be bullied?"

Zhen Yuanzi's words were equally forceful.

Without needing more words, ignoring Taiyi's demand that he hand over the humans, Zhen Yuanzi directly disregarded it.

He too spoke sharply, opening his mouth to directly counter-question Di Jun Taiyi and the others.

The other side's descent upon Ten Longevity Mountain is in itself an offense and provocation against Zhen Yuanzi.

Upon hearing his words, Di Jun's face turned grim.

"Zhen Yuanzi, don't play the victim and accuse first!"

"Hmph, you know very well that if you do not interfere in our Demon Race's affairs, we naturally will have nothing to do with you."

"I, the Emperor, am here; I hope you consider this carefully."

"To offend my Demon Court over these ant-like humans is truly unwise."

Di Jun said thus.

His words were even more ruthless and merciless, every word and sentence calling the humans "ants," his contempt evident.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi's face also sank.

"Di Jun, you, who unjustly dwell beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, still boast of unifying heaven and earth."

"All beings and things in the world are equal."

"Yet you are so violent and ferocious, slaughtering countless human beings."

"No matter how strong your strength or great your reputation, it is merely a case of virtue not matching position!"

Upon these words being spoken,

The beings could not help but secretly grin.

What a formidable Zhen Yuanzi.

To openly scold the Demon Court of "virtue not matching position" is indeed astonishing.

Indeed!

Upon hearing this, Di Jun Taiyi also immediately flew into a rage.

"Zhen Yuanzi, even if you are sharp-tongued now, it is useless."

"A mere war of words cannot change the fate of these humans."

"I, the Emperor, ask you once more: will you hand over these human beings or not?!"

This time, Di Jun stared fixedly at Zhen Yuanzi, having already lost most of his patience.

On the other side, Zhen Yuanzi's response was equally swift and decisive.

"You want me to hand over these humans? That's a foolish dream!"

After a pause in his words, Zhen Yuanzi gazed at Di Jun and said meaningfully:

"Di Jun Taiyi, you must not forget."

"Daoist friend Chen Ku is the Holy Father of the human race."

"If today these humans suffer calamity in this western heaven and earth, Daoist friend Chen Ku will certainly not let it rest."

Zhen Yuanzi, using their own methods against them, thus threatened Di Jun Taiyi and the others in return.

Asking himself, he perhaps is not enough to make Di Jun Taiyi and the others wary.

But Chen Ku is different.

That is an existence that once nearly severed Di Jun's head.

Could Di Jun Taiyi possibly ignore Chen Ku?!

But obviously, having received Fuxi's prior instructions, Di Jun Taiyi is utterly fearless and unscrupulous.

Even the name Chen Ku cannot make them retreat.

"Hah... what does it matter if it's Chen Ku?!"

"All this today is the great trend of the Heavenly Dao, and also the fate of the Human Race."

"They ought to be slaughtered by my Demon Race and become part of the Great Calamity."

"Such a great trend cannot be altered by anyone; otherwise it's merely a mantis trying to stop a chariot, seeking one's own death."

Arrogantly looking down!

Di Jun's response fully shows the Demon Race's strength and tyranny.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi furrowed his brows.

The Human Race becoming part of the Great Calamity?!

The deep meaning of these words, Zhen Yuanzi still cannot comprehend.

However, before he could speak again.

At this moment, Di Jun Taiyi's arrogant, commanding demeanor, as if casually deciding the lives of the Human Race, finally made the Human Race's beings unable to endure.

"Damn it!"

"You hateful Demon Race, why do you relentlessly pursue and slaughter my Human Race?!"

"We Human Race have never offended you."

A Human Race being shouted loudly, staring directly at Di Jun Taiyi.

Although they still felt fear, the anger and resentment in their hearts made them want to confront the Demon Race.

To this, Di Jun simply paid no attention, merely casting a cold glance at the Human Race's beings.

"The weak are prey to the strong; it has always been so!"

"With you lot, you dare to question this venerable one?!"

Facing the Human Race, Di Jun became even more arrogantly unmatched, looking down on everything.

Such an attitude also made the Human Race even more indignant.

"If so, we Human Race hereby swear an oath!"

"From now on, my Human Race and the Demon Race cannot coexist; we will fight to the death!"

Suddenly, a Human Race being shouted loudly.

Obviously, Di Jun Taiyi's appearance of vowing to slaughter the Human Race also thoroughly aroused the Human Race's fighting spirit.

Even if regarded as ants, the Human Race must display an unyielding spirit.

Upon hearing these words, Di Jun Taiyi's eyes turned cold.

"Hmph, brazen boasting!"

"If so, then this emperor cannot let you remain!"
