Chapter 1354: Chapter 1347: Qin Feng Achieves Top Level Strongest, Nether River Advances to Half-Step Primordial Chaos
“Cicada, Cicada!”
In the ninth layer Time World of the Demon Refining Pot, a River of Time cuts across the void, its waters flowing endlessly in one direction, surging forward!
Rooted in this River of Time is a lush and verdant tree, drawing Time Water as nutrients.
This is not the Ancient Tree of the Spring and Autumn Academy, but a tree that Qin Feng cultivated after advancing to the Creation Realm. He specially visited the Spring and Autumn Academy to request a seed from the Spring and Autumn Ancient Tree by offering rare resources, providing a habitat for the Spring and Autumn Cicada in the Time World.
The Spring and Autumn Cicada clings to the Spring and Autumn Tree, its wings rubbing with a sound of cicada chirping. Through this chirp, it comprehends its own Dao, grasping the mysteries of time’s passing.
With its ‘cicada’ calls, the River of Time cutting across the void suddenly swelled with enormous waves. Before the waves even fell, with another cicada call, they abruptly halted.
As the River of Time paused, the entire world also came to a standstill!
Though everything quickly returned to normal, with the Time River resuming its ceaseless flow and the world restored, none of the beings in this realm perceived any abnormality. Yet Qin Feng, who divided a trace of his spirit to observe, saw it all clearly.
That’s not all. As the Spring and Autumn Cicada continued its cicada calls, in the distance, two dancing Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies seemed like a replaying scene turned back in time by a great power, flying backward along their original path.
However, this was not a mere scene, but a real, existing world.
It was indeed the Spring and Autumn Cicada controlling that small fragment of time and space, reversing time!
This level of control over time is truly astonishing!
Of course, it can only limit its control to a very small fragment of time and space for a brief period, as the mana consumption for such methods is enormously massive. With each moment maintained, it’s akin to resisting the onslaught of the entire River of Time, a burden too great to bear even after advancing to the Creation Realm.
Fortunately, inside the Demon Refining Pot, the world is self-contained, differing from the outside Great Thousand Universe, and it remains the master of this layer’s world, only needing to contend with a tributary of the Time River retained from the past.
Otherwise, if truly faced with the roaring River of the Endless Universe manipulating the passage of time, the Spring and Autumn Cicada would have already sustained severe primordial injuries.
In the first layer Chaotic Sky World of the Demon Refining Pot, the Swallowing Sky Toad’s massive mountain-like body crouched in the central world. With a croak, under the gaze of numerous spiritual beasts, it felt the sun, moon, and stars in the sky suddenly plummet into its mouth, seemingly intending to swallow the entire void!
Only a few powerful Demon Immortals and Demon Gods could see clearly that the Swallowing Sky Toad did not actually devour all the sun, moon, and stars, but instead absorbed all the energies they emitted at that moment, preventing any energy leakage, thus creating an illusion of swallowing the entire starry sky.
The stars in the sky were gathered by Qin Feng from the Demon Clan’s Circulation Stars Formation as star cores, meant for cultivation by the various spiritual beasts in the Chaotic Sky World, including the Swallowing Sky Toad, which would not consume them all in one go, cutting off the foundation of this layer’s world, but rather using their vast energy to achieve an advancement.
With endless Star Power entering its body, numerous Star Lights rose behind the Swallowing Sky Toad, transforming into a Star Map Array, resembling the Circulation Stars Formation.
The Hell Three-Headed Dog let out a series of howls, its form transformed into a semi-human, semi-dog fierce figure. With a strong and ferocious body standing upright, it became a fiend reaching the clouds, with three grim dog heads looking in different directions, wielding a massive scythe seemingly obtained from a Death God in another world, and with a swing, hooked up a segment of the Netherworld, circulating in waves around its body.
This Netherworld does not strictly count as the true Netherworld, but the water extracted from the Netherworld was pooled, a trophy Qin Feng obtained from defeating the True Disciple Luo Xiao of the Ghost Dragon City, one of the ten Ghost Cities. Later, Qin Feng conquered multiple Death Worlds, using various methods to extract several Death Water Nether Rivers and fuse them together, including several independent Death Principle Nether Rivers!
Thus, in the sixth layer Death World of the Demon Refining Pot, this Netherworld already completely changed, retaining only a part of its characteristics of Netherworld River Water, now entirely qualifying as an independently owned Nether River of this realm.
At this time, the Hell Three-Headed Dog was proving its Dao and Creation, using this Nether River like a belt wrapped around it, accentuating its ferocity!
In the eighth layer Dark World, the Ghost-Faced Spider transformed into a thousand charming humanoid form, sitting cross-legged within an invisible web, yet still extending countless invisible silk threads, intertwined with the Heavenly Dao of the Dark World, sketching an increasingly meticulous Power of Laws.
“Hmph, that old turtle must think its Northern World Principle is the strongest, yet it doesn’t know my Dark World Power of Laws is the most intricate!
Innate Eight Diagrams, who wouldn’t understand that, having heard the master talk about how the Human Clan Heavenly Emperor Fu Xi once observed the cobweb to reach enlightenment, though I’m mainly cultivating the Dark Dao, it’s not impossible to integrate the Eight Diagrams within, evolving into the Black Heaven Eight Diagrams!”
The Ghost-Faced Spider was quite proud of itself for secretly seeking the master’s assistance.
Over the years, she remained inconspicuous among the Nine Headed Spirit Beasts, not fond of standing out, but in private she had put in a lot of effort, studying extensively the Dao Scriptures about Eight Diagrams, incorporating such Techniques into her own Dao, paving an entirely different path from the mainstream in the Cultivation World, achieving significant accomplishments.
The last to advance was the Three-Legged Death Crow!
This creature’s Curse Principle is too peculiar, whereas the Time Dao of Spring and Autumn Cicada is traceable with the River of Time, and the Space Dao of Swallowing Sky Toad can be sensed within the depths of space, the Curse Principle of the Three-Headed Hell Dog is the most mysterious and difficult to cultivate.
Due to the oddity of curses, proving this Dao requires constant exploration of the mysterious, engaging with the bizarre. Oftentimes, for cultivation, the Three-Legged Death Crow has to delve into the depths of time and space, seeking the unknown secrets.
This is extremely dangerous, and even though the Three-Legged Death Crow has become a Great Power and Qin Feng has a material world coordinate to pull it out, preventing it from being completely lost in the depths of mysterious time, the dangers remain immense, with the slightest mistake leading to irrevocable trapping.
Through years of exploration and cultivation, the Three-Legged Death Crow transformed from an omen into a peculiar existence; now, even discarding its physical body, it can survive in a mysterious way, its offensive methods impenetrable.
Though the Curse Principle is difficult to cultivate, Qin Feng has diligently collected various mysterious techniques and special resources over the years, and it is because of this that the Three-Legged Death Crow was pushed to the Eternal Peak in a relatively short time. Without this support, it would be impossible to have achieved the realm it is in now, let alone to break through and reach Creation.
At this moment, the Three-Legged Death Crow has finally pierced through the final layer of confusion, fully perfecting the Curse Principle, not only rendering the fourth layer of the world of the Demon Refining Pot more bizarre but ensuring that any being within this layer, regardless of whether they are part of the Crow Clan or other Spiritual Birds and Exotic Beasts, under the shroud of the Curse Principle, would more or less comprehend one or two Curse Techniques.
The successive advancement of the Nine Headed Spirit Beasts to Creation also promoted further perfection of the Principles of the Nine Layers World!
Once the Principles of the Nine Layers World were fully perfected, the insights and applications of the Dao Principles by the world and the Nine Main Spirit Beasts were transmitted to Qin Feng’s spirit, immediately enhancing his originally forced advancement to Strongest Cultivation Realm even further.
If it was initially considered forcibly advancing to the strongest realm by leveraging the world’s feedback, somewhat resembling power proving Dao, now his strength is more than enough. The feedback from the ascension of the nine main spiritual beasts allowed him to gain deeper insights into his main cultivation of the nine Dao paths, further progressing his Dao cultivation to truly reach the top-level strongest. He is no longer a novice in appearance.
Qin Feng, whose Dao cultivation was enhanced, could not afford to stabilize his heart’s insights at that moment. He suddenly struck the Chaos Bell, unleashing the innate treasure’s power to an even more formidable extent.
The bell’s humming instantly broke the Nightmare Ancestor’s suppression of him, and even started a counterattack.
This Nightmare avatar was not a complete Primordial Chaos, unable to suppress the overwhelming power fluctuation of the Chaos Bell. The consequence of failing to suppress it was being influenced by the bell’s sound.
Nightmare is formless and traceless, ever-changing, and the bell’s sound also lacks form and trace. Besides scattering the opponent’s body with powerful force, it attacks the opponent’s divine soul origin with sound. Therefore, the Nightmare Ancestor’s avatar failed to suppress Qin Feng again, leading to an unavoidable flaw, seized by a crowd of strongest for a counterattack.
The Nether River Ancestor shouted fiercely, simultaneously unleashing the Avici and Yuan Tu, two innate killing treasures, emitting an incomparably fierce killing aura, leaving two dark space rifts in the void, slashing towards the Nightmare Ancestor’s avatar.
“Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!”
The Nether River Ancestor shouted ‘kill’ seven times in succession, and with each shout, the fierce killing aura on the Avici and Yuan Tu swords increased a notch. By the time all seven shouts were completed, the killing aura on the two innate killing treasures condensed from virtual to real, forming a short, several feet long, directly slashing towards the Nightmare Ancestor’s avatar.
“Clang!”
Nightmare Ancestor used spells to block this sword, but immediately the second sword followed.
The third sword, the fourth sword, until the seventh sword!
The Nether River Ancestor executed seven swords, each stronger than the last, the power of the seven swords accumulated, immediately merging into an overwhelming force. One sword slashed out, heaven-shattering, earth-crumbling, Dao collapsing, inducing terror in all beings within the Nightmare world!
The killing Dao created by this ancestor is boundless and fierce, killing heaven, earth, and all beings, aiming to prove Dao by slaying Primordial Chaos!
And since he set such a grand ambition, if he didn’t possess heaven-defying methods, how could he continue along this killing Dao path!
At this moment, the Nether River Ancestor leveraged the momentum of previously killing heaven and earth and all beings, fully accumulating the power of the first six swords into the final Saint Slaying sword, instantly displaying boundless might.
One sword slashed out, immediately cutting the Nightmare Ancestor’s avatar in two!
Moreover, where the sword Qi passed, life extinguished, Dao vanished, and laws collapsed. Even with the Nightmare Ancestor avatar being empowered by Primordial Chaos power, it started collapsing under the overwhelming killing aura, the Nightmare power originally unstable on his body dissipating into black smoke under the boundless killing aura.
The Nightmare Ancestor avatar’s remaining divine sense looked incredulously at the Nether River Ancestor, utterly stunned that this guy could indeed slay him.
But he has no chance to speak, as the overwhelming killing aura instantly enveloped all of him, both form and primordial spirit, completely extinguished by this killing aura!
Originally he wouldn’t have been so easily slain by the Nether River Ancestor, although the seven-kill Dao is formidable, it might not have necessarily killed him.
But he was first suppressed by Qin Feng’s Chaos Bell, his primordial spirit shaken, and coupled with the containment and strong attacks from several strongest, his strength couldn’t exert even half, allowing the Nether River Ancestor to reap the benefits!
“Hahaha…”
The Nether River Ancestor suddenly laughed aloud, the sound revealing endless joy.
Simultaneously, his aura surged violently, originally a top-level strongest, now further advancing, his aura exuding traces of everlasting Primordial Chaos Saint presence!
“Gasp…”
A group of great powers were shocked upon witnessing this.
What’s going on, is the Nether River Ancestor intending to prove Dao as Primordial Chaos?
If he truly confirms Primordial Chaos through the killing Dao, then the future of primordial will be lively!
Many great powers’ expressions shifted, especially those from primordial origins, feeling heavy-hearted. If the Nether River Ancestor truly achieved the everlasting Primordial Chaos Dao, then the entire primordial structure might change, potentially triggering unprecedented calamity, which many great powers are reluctant to face, and are unwilling to combat such a killing Dao powerhouse!
Otherwise, the bloody wars of ancient and remote times would repeat, and if the Nether River Ancestor’s Asura tribe gained momentum, another massive group of primordial beings might venture to the starry sky for survival.
Fortunately, this surge of power quickly came to a halt; the Primordial Chaos power didn’t completely cover him but allowed him to possess war power comparable to a Primordial Chaos Saint avatar. In terms of strength, he was not weaker than the avatars of the Yin Yang Ancestor and Nightmare Ancestor, the creation strong experts.
Of course, the Nether River Ancestor isn’t a World Master, lacking the profound great world principles to summon. Thus in true comparison, he was somewhat inferior, but if fighting outside the world in the cosmic void, victory could go either way.
“Half-Step Primordial Chaos!”
The Ancestor Dragon gazed at the Nether River Ancestor’s figure, unable to resist saying this.
Although the Nether River Ancestor did not actually slay the true Primordial Chaos, preventing him from successfully proving Dao, his mere presence now was enough to alarm numerous great powers!
The Nether River Ancestor was originally a top-level strongest, an almost invincible existence unless Saints emerged, yet there were still a few elder strong individuals capable of contending with him.
Now, after becoming a half-step Primordial Chaos, he’s completely an invincible existence below a Saint. Who can challenge him now?
