I am submissive in Journey to the West, I strike hard at the gods

Chapter 754 The Chaotic and Abnormal Land!

"With the Lord's strength, he could easily suppress Pangu by simply showing himself. Why go through all this trouble?"

Jiang Wang turned around, his gaze falling on Luo Feifei, his eyes deep, as if he could see through people's hearts.

"What I want is not to defeat Pangu."

"What I want is for the Great Dao's will to personally nurture Pangu."

"Only Pangu was qualified to activate the origin of the Great Dao."

"Only Pangu can give me an excuse to legitimately devour the power of the Great Dao."

"If I were to kill Pangu directly, the will of the Great Dao would surely be desperate and would do anything to take me down with it."

"Right now, I don't want to completely break ties with the Great Dao."

Luo Feifei suddenly realized what was going on, and felt even more awe for Jiang Wang's scheming.

"Your Majesty's scheming is unparalleled; I truly admire you."

"Pangu was still kept in the dark, thinking himself the savior of the primordial world, unaware that he had already become a pawn on the master's chessboard."

Jiang Wang sneered, turned around again, and looked towards the direction of the Primordial Heaven Realm. His gaze pierced through layers of space, as if he could see the fearful and uneasy appearance of the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and others.

"The gods of the primordial world thought that I destroyed the heavens for the purpose of slaughter."

"They don't understand that the Celestial Realm is the foundation of the Heavenly Dao. Destroying the Celestial Realm would sever Hongjun's connection with the Heavenly Dao."

"Without the protection of the Heavenly Dao, even the primordial saints are no different from ants before me." Just then, from the depths of the Ruins of Return, a faint Daoist voice came, seemingly the remaining will of an ancient powerhouse resisting Jiang Wang's devouring.

Jiang Wang raised an eyebrow, casually grabbed the will in his hand, and with a gentle twist, it instantly turned into ashes.

"A few remnant souls dare to be so presumptuous."

"This Ruins of Return is a place where the Yin energy of the primordial world gathers, which is perfect for my cultivation."

"Once I have completely taken control of the Ruins of Return, this place will become my base and the starting point for conquering all worlds."

Luo Feifei stood respectfully to the side, not daring to say anything, and simply watched quietly as Jiang Wang devoured the origin of heaven and earth, his cultivation level rising at a terrifying speed.

Within the Great Dao Space, Pangu's refining speed of the Primordial Fragrance Pear increased rapidly. The second Primordial Fragrance Pear had already entered his mouth, and his physical body shone brightly, with Pangu's true form showing signs of a breakthrough.

"The Nine Extremes Primordial Technique is indeed profound."

"In a short while, I had already reached the peak of Quasi-Saint, and was only one step away from becoming a Saint."

The voice of the Great Dao's will resounded once more.

"Don't be impatient."

"The more solid the foundation, the greater the future achievements."

"Although Jiang Wang has a strong foundation, he relies entirely on plunder, and his weaknesses are numerous."

"You need to proceed steadily and surely, taking the Great Dao of Creation as your foundation and integrating the Dao of Nine Extremes Primordial Chaos, in order to truly surpass him."

Pangu nodded in agreement.

"I see."

"I won't rush things."

"But there was always a sense of unease in my heart, as if Jiang Wang had already seen through our plan."

The Great Dao's will remained silent for a moment, then slowly spoke.

“Jiang Wang is intelligent and may have noticed something.”

"But he's too arrogant and definitely won't take you seriously."

"This is his weakness, and your only chance."

Pangu took a deep breath, stopped thinking, and devoted himself to cultivation. The phantom of the Heaven-Opening Axe continued to condense above his head, and chaotic light flickered on the axe blade, as if it were about to cleave this Great Dao space.

Time passed slowly, and a thousand years passed in the Great Dao Space, while a day had passed in the outside world.

Pangu's aura surged once again, and the third Hunyuan Pear was completely refined. He had cultivated the Nine Extremes Hunyuan Technique to the seventh level, only two levels away from mastery.

"I feel like I'm about to lose control of my power."

"The soul of the Heaven-Opening Axe has already been mostly condensed. Give me a little more time and it will be fully formed."

The Great Dao's will was pleased.

"very good."

"At this rate, you will be able to leave the pass in less than ten thousand years."

"At that time, even if Jiang Wang refines the origin of the Lu Ya Realm, he will still be no match for you."

But at that moment, Jiang Wang, who was beneath the abyss, suddenly chuckled, his voice piercing through space and entering the Great Dao Space.

"Pangu, stop practicing."

"Even if you train for billions of years, you will not be my match."

"The will of the Great Dao, do you think that by hiding in the space of the Great Dao, I cannot find you?"

"When I emerge from seclusion, the first thing I'll do is dismantle your Great Dao Space, causing you to completely dissipate into the primordial chaos."

Upon hearing this, Pangu flew into a rage, his battle intent soaring to the heavens.

"Jiang Wang!"

"How dare you provoke me!"

"Once I emerge from seclusion, I will tear you to pieces, suppress your soul to the netherworld, and condemn you to eternal damnation!"

Jiang Wang's laughter grew even more unrestrained, echoing throughout the myriad realms.

"I'll wait."

"I hope you won't let me down."

"After all, there aren't many people who can be my nourishment."

The aura of the Great Dao's will deepened, and a trace of anger lingered within its Daoist essence.

"Jiang Wang!"

"Don't be so arrogant!"

"The vast and boundless world will not tolerate such insolence from you!"

Jiang Wang responded calmly.

"The Primordial World?" "From this day forward, I will rule the Primordial World."

"What about the Great Dao? What about the Heavenly Dao?"

"Anyone who blocks my path will be killed without mercy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the power of the world surged wildly within the Ruins of Return. The primordial Daoist aura faintly appeared around Jiang Wang, clearly indicating that he was one step closer to breaking through.

Within the Great Dao Space, Pangu gripped the illusory image of the Heaven-Opening Axe, his gaze resolute, showing no sign of retreat.

"I will definitely stop you."

"For the sake of the primordial world, for the sake of all living beings, I will surely slay you!"

The Great Dao's Will spoke in a deep voice.

"Focus on your cultivation."

"Don't let him disturb your peace of mind."

"Your path is to create heaven and earth and protect all living beings."

"His path is to plunder and devour, and to be the only one who is supreme."

"Good and evil cannot coexist; you will prevail."

Pangu stopped responding and became completely immersed in cultivation. The light around him grew brighter and brighter. The Great Dao of Creation and the Dao of Nine Extremes Primordial Chaos were constantly merging within him. A power powerful enough to shake the heavens was quietly awakening.

Beneath the Ruins, Jiang Wang closed his eyes and concentrated, accelerating his devouring of the world's origin once more. The last remaining power of the Lu Ya Realm was completely absorbed into his body.

"Almost there."

"When I break through, the world will be reshuffled."

"Pangu, the Great Dao, all the sages of the heavens..."

Are you all ready for your doomsday?

Luo Feifei stood aside, feeling the increasingly terrifying aura emanating from her master. She felt only awe and dared not harbor any disloyal thoughts.

The entire primordial world seemed to have fallen into an eerie calm.

The celestial realm shattered, the dragon race declined, the ancestral witches perished, and the sages went into hiding.

The Great Dao was nurturing Pangu, and Jiang Wang was accumulating power.

An ultimate war that will determine the fate of the primordial world and the fate of all realms is quietly brewing.

No one knows where the primordial world will go after this great war breaks out.

No one knows whether Pangu or Jiang Wang will have the last laugh.

But everyone knows that once the great war begins, it will inevitably cause the heavens and earth to collapse and all worlds to be overturned.

The mastermind behind all this, Jiang Wang, who came from another world and used Flower Fruit Mountain as a cover to stir up the primordial chaos, is standing quietly in the abyss of Guixu, waiting for the final showdown to arrive.

In his eyes, there was no fear, no hesitation, only endless indifference and a thirst for power.

"The primordial world will eventually be mine."

"All worlds will eventually grovel at my feet."

"Lord Jiang Wang has emerged!"

The ancient Qilin at the very front, pure white with shimmering scales, took a step forward. As its four hooves landed, the void trembled slightly. Its enormous beastly eyes were fixed on the white light emanating from the teleportation array. Its voice was deep and respectful, filled with undisguised awe.

"Congratulations, sir, on successfully passing the final trial of the Secret Realm Tower!"

Following closely behind, the other seven Qilins, each with a different shape and color, bowed their heads. The red Qilin's voice was like a booming bell, reverberating throughout the void: "My lord, your talent is unparalleled throughout the ages. We have guarded the Secret Realm Tower for thousands of years and have never seen anyone pass through all levels with such ease!"

The azure Qilin followed up with a heartfelt exclamation: "Countless geniuses have ascended the Secret Realm Tower, but all have been trapped at the Saint level, unable to advance even half a step in their entire lives. You, sir, have swept through the entire tower, crushing all the Saint slaves within. Such strength is unmatched among the younger generation of the Auspicious Realm!"

The black Qilin raised its eyes and looked down at Jiang Wang, who was slowly appearing in the teleportation array. It said in a deep voice, "Especially the battle in which you defeated the Purple Gold Sacred Dragon. The power of the old sacred beasts of the Xuanhuang Realm was so strong, yet they were easily suppressed by you. We watched from afar and are still shocked to this day."

The golden Qilin nodded slightly and added, "The Purple-Gold Sacred Dragon possesses the original Dao of Xuanhuang and is a top-tier bloodline from ancient times. Its foundation far surpasses that of the native divine beasts of the Auspicious Realm. The fact that you were able to defeat it shows that your cultivation technique is heaven-defying and your combat power is unparalleled."

Jiang Wang lightly lifted his foot and slowly stepped out of the teleportation array surrounded by flowing light. His clothes fluttered without wind, his face was indifferent, and his gaze swept lightly over the eight-headed Qilin bowing in greeting. He said softly, "It was just a lucky victory. It's a minor trick and not worth mentioning."

The white Qilin quickly looked up, shook its head repeatedly, and said in an extremely earnest tone: "My lord, please do not be modest. The layers of the Secret Realm Tower are all corresponding to the ultimate combat power of the geniuses of all realms. The guardians of each layer are top experts who have been tempered over countless years. They are by no means ordinary people, and the word 'luck' cannot be used to describe them."

The crimson Qilin replied, its eyes full of doubt and confusion: "To be honest, I have always had a question in my mind, and I hope that you can enlighten me, sir."

"May I ask what kind of supreme Dao technique you cultivate, sir? When you were challenging the tower, your attacks seemed effortless, without any earth-shattering phenomena or world-destroying power, yet every strike precisely defeated your enemy, crushing opponents of the same or even higher levels. Such methods are unheard of and unseen by us."

Jiang Wang's eyes flickered slightly as he pondered the profound mysteries of the Nine Extremes Primordial Art. His expression remained calm as he said, "It is merely a primordial art where the physical body and the Great Dao originate from the same source. Its emphasis is on a solid foundation and following the natural flow. There are not many fancy tricks."

Upon hearing this, the azure Qilin's eyes widened with even greater doubt, and it couldn't help but ask, "Primordial Chaos Technique? In the myriad realms, there are very few techniques at the Primordial Chaos level. Most of them are in the hands of Chaos Great Powers and Realm Lords. In the Auspicious Realm, they have long since disappeared."

"How could someone so young have mastered such a supreme skill?"

Jiang Wang smiled faintly, and instead of answering, asked, "You have guarded the Secret Realm Tower for many years. Do you know the original origin of the Secret Realm Tower? Do you know which realm the many powerful guardians in the tower come from?"

Upon hearing this, the eight Qilin exchanged glances, all looking bewildered.

The black Qilin pondered for a moment before slowly speaking: "My lord, since we were born with intelligence, we have guarded this place and have been stationed here for generations in the Secret Realm Tower. We only know that this tower is a supreme innate treasure of the Auspicious Realm, which suppresses the fortune of a realm and controls the invasion of myriad realms, but we have never known its specific origin, let alone the origins of the holy servants in the tower."

The golden Qilin echoed, "That's right. Over the years, through countless seasons, countless predecessors and geniuses have explored and investigated, but none have been able to uncover the origin of the Secret Realm Tower. They only know that this tower connects all the heavens and myriad realms, and can attract the remnant souls and origins of powerful beings from all realms to reside in it, transforming them into guardians of the tower, providing a place for the disciples of my Auspicious Realm to test and break through."

Jiang Wang's eyes brightened slightly, and he slowly asked, following the words, "Have you ever heard of the Xuanhuang Realm? Do you know the origin of the Xuanhuang Dragon Clan?"

Upon hearing this, the aura around the eight-headed Qilin solidified, and their expressions instantly became solemn.

The white Qilin spoke solemnly, "Xuanhuang Realm! This junior knows of this realm! It is one of the most ancient primordial realms among all the heavens and myriad worlds. Legend has it that it was one of the first great worlds to be born at the beginning of the creation of the world, with a vast and boundless foundation, far surpassing my Auspicious Realm!"

The crimson Qilin continued in a deep voice: "The Xuanhuang Dragon Clan is the supreme bloodline of the Xuanhuang Realm. They are born with the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao fortune. Those with pure bloodlines can be born to become saints without having to cultivate hard. They are uniquely blessed by heaven."

The purple-gold sacred dragon that appeared in the tower earlier was a direct descendant of the Xuanhuang Dragon Clan, possessing terrifying power and resources.

The azure Qilin looked puzzled and bowed to Jiang Wang, asking, "Why did you suddenly ask about the Xuanhuang Realm, sir? Do you know about the connection between the Secret Realm Tower and the Xuanhuang Realm?"

Jiang Wang gazed into the distance, looking at the towering Secret Realm Tower that seemed to reach straight into the chaotic sea of ​​clouds. He spoke calmly and slowly: "When I was exploring the tower, the guardian I encountered on the second floor was that purple-gold holy dragon. Its body was surrounded by a rich aura of the Xuanhuang Origin, none of which belonged to the Auspicious Realm. This is enough to prove that the Secret Realm Tower has long been connected with the Xuanhuang Realm."

The black Qilin's pupils constricted slightly, and it exclaimed in surprise, "Is this really true? So, the Secret Realm Tower of my Auspicious Realm is not limited to trials in one realm, but is connected to the ancient Xuanhuang Great World?"

Jiang Wang nodded and said, "That's right. Not only the Xuanhuang Realm, but the realms connected by this Secret Realm Tower are probably far beyond your comprehension."

The golden unicorn frowned and said in a deep voice, "But this is completely illogical! My Auspicious Realm is only in the middle of the tens of millions of realms, with limited resources. How can it be connected with a top-level Great Thousand Origin Realm like Xuanhuang? From ancient times to the present, there has never been any record of the two realms ever communicating with each other."

Jiang Wang said calmly, "There are countless secrets in the world. Just because your vision is limited and you are unaware of them does not mean they do not exist."

The white Qilin bowed immediately: "What you say is absolutely right, sir. We are just like frogs in a well, with limited knowledge and understanding."

Jiang Wang's gaze narrowed slightly. He casually inquired, his tone calm and even: "You have guarded the Secret Realm Tower for generations. Have you ever discovered traces of interdimensional passages within the tower, or in the void outside? Or any unusual places with weak spatial barriers and chaotic void folds?" (End of Chapter)
