Chapter 65: Plotting Against the Three Clans

  A serene mountain valley, where dark clouds surge from time to time. From the dark clouds, a large black hand stretches out and grabs the drifting soul, pulling it deep into the darkness.

  Luoyun Pan sat in the midst of the grand formation, muttering to himself, "Still not enough, over ten million years have passed again, and I've only just recovered to the state of the Grand Luo. At most, I can be considered a top expert now that I possess the Golden Jiao's prenatal spiritual treasure. For ordinary living beings, it's definitely nothing to worry about. In these tens of millions of years, the ancestors of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin tribes should have been born by now. If I were to face them, I would probably lose more often than not."

  Luoyan endured the restless and eager heart, continued to cast the soul-gathering spell, still gathering the scattered souls between heaven and earth, and the primordial spirit would have a chance to fight back.

  Time flies slowly in cultivation, but Luo's heart becomes more and more quiet, feeling more and more powerless. When will he have a chance to turn things around? The three pre-heavenly clans are incredibly powerful, how can he swallow them cleanly? If he's not careful, he'll only become someone else's meal.

  Above this world, there is another Heavenly Way, that despicable Xuan Huang Daoist, I don't know if he has transformed into the Heavenly Way or not.

  A strange aura appeared between heaven and earth, and suddenly the entire Honghuang fell silent. All living beings' souls were shocked by a sudden scene: a nine-clawed golden dragon soared into the sky, with the head of a deer, the body of a snake, the horns of a deer, the eyes of a turtle, the scales of a fish, the paws of a tiger, the claws of an eagle, and the ears of a cow. Its presence filled the sky with wind and clouds, exuding an aura of great majesty that spread throughout Honghuang. All living beings felt an overwhelming urge to kneel down in reverence. The ten thousand beasts pay homage to the heavens!

  Today, the Ancestral Dragon emerged into the world, revealing its true form and proclaiming its dominance over the Primordial Chaos. The dragons of the dragon tribe also revealed their true forms, letting out loud roars to display their might. At this moment, the Phoenix soared high above the Undying Fire Mountain, its true form manifesting as it spread its wings to cover the sky. With a snake-like neck and fish-like tail, dragon scales, turtle shell, swallow jaw, and chicken beak, it floated above the endless paulownia trees, facing the sun and letting out a majestic cry. Its body emitted five-colored radiant light, its aura piercing the heavens. Surrounded by auspicious clouds and countless flying birds, the phoenix's voice shook the firmament, its clear and melodious song unlike any beastly roar. The hundred birds paid homage to the phoenix! For a moment, it rivaled the dragon tribe for attention.

  The Qilin clan cannot be defeated. The true body of the Qilin appears under the cliff, with a dragon head, deer horns, lion eyes, tiger back, bear waist, snake scales, horse hooves, and pig tail. It is as high as ten thousand feet, standing on four legs, leading the people of the tribe to face east and stand upright, looking up at the sky and roaring loudly. In the vast wilderness, countless mountains change their direction towards the central region, and there are also beasts serving by its side. The majestic momentum fully reveals the Qilin's thick and heavy nature. The three clans simultaneously reveal their mighty appearance, shocking all the hundred tribes, and the heavenly phenomenon appears, causing the heaven and earth of the vast wilderness to shake continuously.

  "Ha! Dragon and phoenix cry out in unison! Qilin shows its might! Hmph, what a big show! Just because they've transcended the mortal realm, they think they can flaunt their powers like this? Don't they fear heavenly retribution? Whatever, they're just a group of powerful fertilizer after all."

  He let out a sigh in his heart, these guys are incredibly powerful. The aura they're releasing now has already reached the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal's full circle. This is practically a quasi-sage in the world! Most importantly, they were born with innate divine abilities bestowed upon them by the Heavenly Dao. The dragon clan has the divine ability of water, the phoenix clan can control fire, and the qilin has the power of earth. They already have a hint of the shape of the law. His own little Great Luo realm is not even enough to withstand a single slap from others.

  The three tribes of the Primordial Chaos are incredibly powerful and cannot be defeated by brute force, so I can only outsmart them. Hehe, then I'll turn your world upside down.

  The soul flag continuously absorbs souls, spews out spiritual energy, and the surface of the flag becomes dark and shiny, emitting a faint glow. A captivating aura surrounds the soul flag, giving off an illusion that it can snatch away the innate soul from others' bodies.

  Suddenly, a black cloud surged in the Soul Banner's great array, and the soul power within the banner churned like straight water arrows shooting towards the center of the array.

  The Naraka Vajra dynamic mantra gathered the infinite and pure primordial spiritual energy around him, under the effect of which a vague dragon-shaped body quickly appeared.

  The dragon-shaped body slowly solidified, and the black scales on its surface were visible to the naked eye, reflecting a faint glow, which was actually the appearance of the Netherworld Demon Dragon.

  At this time, Lu E burst out with a loud shout, and a ray of light flew out from one of the awakened heads. As the light was extracted, the head fell back into slumber. This ray of light instantly flew into the dragon-shaped flesh body.

  Luóu yǐn dòng hún fān zhōng de hún lì, bù duàn de dǎ chū fǎ jué, yī dào dào wú xíng de bō tén zài kōng zhōng màn yán, nà tiáo mó lóng měng de zhēng kāi yī shuāng lóng yǎn, shè chū yāo yì de mù guāng.

  Luó suddenly felt a wave of weakness, and after expending a huge amount of energy, he managed to condense a dragon-shaped clone. This clone was also a manifestation of his own thoughts, with a realm that was only at the initial stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal. It was just a small role, but it was an important chess piece in his chaotic three-clan game.

  When will that self-devouring Qilin's primordial spirit be able to condense into the form of a flying bird? If it can, it would perfectly complement my plan. That branch emitting intense flames is unknown what it is, but using it to disguise one's identity should be quite good.

  Luoyi pointed with one hand, and the black dragon suddenly shook its head and tail, rushing out of the valley.

  This demon dragon was condensed from the primordial spiritual energy of the universe, and its innate physical body could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on its own. However, its growth was limited because it lacked a deep understanding of the Tao, and it could only have a slight advantage in terms of spiritual power. Its cultivation could only remain at the level of its current nascent soul. In other words, this clone could at most reach the level of Mahayana Golden Immortal, but its overall spiritual power could increase infinitely. As long as it could grow rapidly on the vast lands of the universe, it would definitely be able to secure a certain position within the dragon tribe, and that was enough.

  Luohua transformed into a nine-headed lion-like creature, stretched his waist, and sat cross-legged for tens of thousands of years. It's time to move around now. With this form, joining the beast clan should be easy, but he didn't know what excuse to use.

  Luo Yu set up a large array of concealment and hiding in the entire valley, letting eighty-one soul flags operate automatically to condense and refine his soul. He himself transformed into a black cloud and flew towards the Hongyuan Continent.

  Billions of vast and desolate mountains stretch endlessly, with majestic mountain ranges, misty fog, and frequent sightings of spiritual beasts frolicking and playing. Peonies, reishi mushrooms, and rare herbs bloom in profusion, filling the air with an otherworldly fragrance. The mountains are densely forested, with towering trees that pierce the clouds, and waterfalls cascade down sheer cliffs, their melodic sounds echoing unceasingly, like a celestial music performance.

  All the way, I've collected some rare and exotic fruits. After nearly a million years of development in this vast world, the primordial spiritual energy fills the entire space, giving birth to countless spiritual roots, which is expected. These rare and exotic fruits contain extremely pure heavenly and earthly spiritual energy, with some even having traces of the Great Dao. Luo Hou took a bite of the red fruit filled with fiery spiritual power, and suddenly a warm spiritual energy spread throughout his body. Looking at the distant mountain peaks tens of billions of miles away, he muttered to himself: "These are all good things, I wonder how powerful those primordial spiritual roots in the Kunlun Mountains must be. They must be against-the-heavens objects."

  A strange feeling arose in Luo's heart, as if someone was watching him from the side. Following this feeling, a golden dragonfly burst out of his body and snapped in mid-air, leaving behind a thick, dark red branch that fell to the ground. The broken end oozed a dark red liquid with an unbearable stench. The branch twisted once and suddenly burrowed into the earth.

  Luoyu's heart moved, and it turned out to be a spiritual creature born from plants. Although the Honghuang world is rich in spiritual energy, plants and trees are naturally soulless and only have simple consciousness. To awaken spiritual intelligence and cultivate into a spirit, one must be extraordinary, either born with a spiritual root or possessing a unique divine ability. This guy looks like a ferocious and evil creature at first glance.

  With a swift rotation of his divine consciousness, he executed an abstruse hand seal, and the land within a hundred miles was sealed off by him. The blood-red long vine let out a sharp whine, twisting its soft body, with a huge spiritual power circle on it, pulling the long vine to burst out of the ground.

  A divine sense entered the long vine body, and Luo Yu nodded: "It's a blood-sucking ghost vine, with tiny thorns all over its body, which can absorb the flesh and spiritual energy of the Honghuang creatures."

  Vampire Vine, this plant is normally just like an ordinary vine, without any eye-catching features. However, when it senses spiritual energy and blood, it reveals its true ferocious appearance, tightly entwining living beings with its branches. Those ordinary-looking vines instantly stand upright with countless tiny suckers, each surrounded by numerous dense, menacing thorns that pierce the skin of living beings like needles, sucking out their blood and spiritual energy until dry. The suckers on its body have strong adhesion, and its main body is extremely tough, making it almost immune to attack-type spirit treasures. Once entwined, it's a nightmare!

  Luóu faintly smiled and withdrew his spiritual power. The black-red ghost vine let out a sharp cry and hid into the ground.

  Luó Huì's heart skipped a beat as he realized he had made a fatal mistake, these guys wouldn't let him off because of his mercy.

  A vine as thick as a giant tree burst out, with faces basin-sized suckers on the branches. These vines were like demons with sharp teeth and claws, stretching out their huge mouths, carrying a sky full of sand and stones towards Luo Yu. Luo Yu shook his head, and with a flash of golden light, the incredibly powerful vine was instantly cut into two segments. Countless suckers opened up, revealing the fine, inverted thorns wrapped inside, numbering in the billions, extremely terrifying.

  These vines seem to be fearless of death, constantly bursting out of the ground, but cannot change their fate of being cut off at the waist.

  Luó Hù felt that the entire sky was starting to darken, and when he looked up, a huge net woven with countless thorns surrounded him.

  Luoye smiled in his heart, this blood-sucking vine was indeed cunning. The branches that had been cut off by himself had taken root on the ground and had already set up a dense thorny lockdown net without him noticing. This thorny net was made up of more than a hundred thick and thin branches, each with sharp thorns, ferocious beyond compare.
