Chapter 4689: Three Million Years

The Ordos Mountains stretched for tens of trillions of miles, serving as the ancestral land of the Ordos Tribe.

Deep within the mountain range, a colossal ten-colored human-shaped Chaos Beast and a nine-colored Chaos Beast with a human body and bird wings stood atop a high peak, gazing at distant thunderclouds. Lightning flashed and thunder roared, as massive bolts of nine-colored immortal lightning struck down.

A quarter of an hour later, a deafening thunderclap echoed. The thunderclouds swirled and converged, transforming into an enormous nine-colored lightning dragon that plunged from the sky, hurtling directly towards a beast-shaped nine-colored Chaos Beast.

Fine cracks appeared on the nine-colored Chaos Beast's chaotic armor. It roared, its body erupting in dazzling nine-colored spiritual light. It unleashed a punch, and a giant fist encased in magma flashed out, meeting the descending nine-colored lightning dragon.

The giant fist struck the lightning dragon's head. The massive nine-colored lightning dragon twisted violently, then exploded, transforming into a colossal surge of nine-colored lightning that shot skyward. The ground shook, air currents surged like tides, and numerous cracks appeared in the void, creating an alarming spectacle.

Before the nine-colored lightning dissipated, a loud roar erupted. As the lightning cleared, a bleeding, charred nine-colored Chaos Beast was revealed, emanating a terrifying spiritual pressure.

"Haha, I've finally advanced to Dao Ancestor."

The nine-colored Chaos Beast burst into wild laughter, its body radiating blinding nine-colored spiritual light. The cracks on its chaotic armor healed at a visible rate.

"Congratulations, Chen! Two Dao Ancestors in one tribe—tsk, tsk, the title of the largest tribe is well-deserved."

The nine-colored Chaos Beast offered its congratulations, its voice filled with envy.

Mo, the Dao Ancestor of the Tumet King Tribe.

"Yuan is a good lad. After all these years, our Ordos Tribe finally has a second Dao Ancestor."

Chen's voice was filled with excitement.

"Including Xiao from the Yi Chief King Tribe, we now have two additional Dao Ancestors, totaling fourteen. Our vitality has largely recovered."

Mo said with a smile.

"After so many years of recuperation, the Immortals should also have new Dao Ancestors. We just don't know what law they used to achieve enlightenment. If it's an ordinary law, there's nothing to fear, but if it's a special law, they will be difficult to deal with."

Chen's voice was grave.

"We won't know until the Immortal-Chaos War begins. Hmph, the Qilin clan killed the successor of our Tumet King Tribe. I've long wanted to settle that score with them."

Mo exuded a murderous aura.

It didn't know the true culprit, but was certain it was an Immortal.

"No rush. Without Lord Teng's command, it's not good for us to rashly start a war. Speaking of which, Lord Teng's recuperation this time has been too long! He never rested this long during previous Immortal-Chaos Wars."

Mo said.

The Immortal-Chaos War requires orders from the Ten Directions Mother-Child Pagoda. In previous wars, the Ten Directions Mother-Child Pagoda, a Dao artifact responsible for countering Immortals, never recuperated for such a long time. This time, its recuperation has been exceptionally lengthy.

"Lord Teng was ambushed by a Dao artifact and sustained serious injuries; otherwise, the Immortal-Chaos War would have started long ago. The Eight Great Tribes attacked the Qilin clan because Lord Teng sensed this Dao artifact appearing in their territory."

Chen said.

"Is that Dao artifact so powerful? Powerful enough to make Lord Teng recuperate for years..."

Before Mo could finish speaking, a nine-colored Chaos Beast flew over and reported to Chen: "Lord Chen, Lord Teng sent word that the Dao artifact has appeared in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. We are to track its whereabouts."

"The Nine Heavens Immortal Realm? It certainly can move. Understood. You can instruct the subordinates to handle it."

Chen commanded.

"Yes, Lord Chen."

The nine-colored Chaos Beast acknowledged and flew back the way it came.

"The Immortal Realm is vast. Lord Teng can only sense its approximate location, and soon loses the sensation again. It moves around so much that it's difficult for us to find it. If only we could pinpoint its exact location, that would be great."

Mo said with a tone of regret.

"The spirit of a Dao artifact can sense other Dao artifacts' approximate positions upon acting. Otherwise, during every Immortal-Chaos War, the three Dao artifacts from the Qiankun Pagoda would come to assist. Without their help, Lord Teng would have long ago eliminated the other Dao Ancestors, especially those of the human race."

Chen said with a contemptuous tone.

When the Ten Directions Mother-Child Pagoda takes action, the three Dao artifacts can sense it and will quickly come to provide support. Otherwise, the Chaos Beasts would have an even greater advantage.

"Both current human Dao Ancestors achieved enlightenment through ordinary laws. Only the Old Ancestor of the Daoist Lin family achieved enlightenment through the law of ice, but he has already perished. In the next Immortal-Chaos War, we'll eliminate them first. Without Dao Ancestors, the human race won't amount to much, and the Four Great Demonic Clans will be easier to deal with."

Mo said.

"This isn't something we can decide; it depends on Lord Teng's wishes. Alright, you should go back. And remember, don't spread the news about Yuan advancing to Dao Ancestor."

Chen instructed.

"Understood. I look forward to the coming of the Immortal-Chaos War."

Mo nodded and departed.

In Gus King City, within a magnificent palace, a beast-shaped nine-colored Chaos Beast sat on the main seat, its gaze cold.

Lu Yue was reporting, her expression respectful.

"What? The Immortal Slayer Dao Ancestor's legacy has already been taken? So quickly?"

The nine-colored Chaos Beast said.

You, the Dao Ancestor of the Gus King Tribe.

"Absolutely true. The other party departed on an Earth-grade Immortal Warship. We have no clear information about them, only that one individual mastered the law of space, possessed a high cultivation level, and could easily restrain three Grand Luo Golden Immortals."

Lu Yue said.

"Hmph, send people to investigate for me. Find out the truth."

You commanded.

"Yes, Lord You."

Lu Yue acknowledged and withdrew.

Time flew by, and three million years passed.

Chaos Continent, Qinglian City.

The city was filled with buildings, and the streets teemed with people.

At Qinglian Peak, the door to a secret chamber opened, and Wang Changsheng emerged, his brows furrowed.

Wang Changsheng had refined a set of top-grade defensive immortal artifacts called the Nine Star Beads, incorporating a Primordial Spiritual Treasure, making their defense exceptionally strong. This was thanks to acquiring the Immortal Slayer Dao Ancestor's legacy; otherwise, merely collecting the materials would have taken tens of millions of years.

Wang Qingbai had refined ten ten-colored crystal cores into Snow Amber Ice Ganoderma Pills, with Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan each receiving five.

After Wang Changsheng consumed the Snow Amber Ice Ganoderma Pills and opened 1,600 immortal apertures, he could no longer open another. He clearly understood that he had encountered a bottleneck, which was not surprising.

Grand Luo Golden Immortals getting stuck at a bottleneck is troublesome; it's quite normal to be stuck for tens of millions of years, and some even for hundreds of millions of years. Consequently, there are many Grand Luo Golden Immortals in the Immortal Realm who are hundreds of millions of years old.

With the threat of the Hunxie King Tribe, it was inconvenient for Wang Changsheng to be away for too long. Wang Qingshan and others had already cultivated their bodies into top-tier immortal physiques. Wang Changsheng had also obtained many rare artifact-refining materials from the Immortal Slayer Dao Ancestor's cultivation grounds, which he used to upgrade the innate immortal artifacts of Wang Qingshan, Ye Haitang, Wang Yingjie, and others to top-grade immortal artifacts, greatly enhancing their strength.
