Chapter 315: Chapter 299: I Was a Billion Years Earlier Than Hong Jun

Legend speaks of a mysterious old Taoist who, having lost Wukong, was greatly vexed and retreated into seclusion to comprehend further.

One day, he suddenly opened his eyes and quietly tore a gap in the Chaotic World, a gap not merely ripping through chaos but seeming to traverse the bounds of space and time, spanning billions upon billions of light-years, no, even trillions! He glimpsed a thread of profound mystery and finally tore a gap in chaos.

A stream of golden gas drifted out, which he promptly swallowed into his belly.

"Creation Qi! This is Creation Qi! With a bit more Creation Qi, I could truly break the shackles of the Great Dao, control the Great Dao, and annihilate all beings! I could even compete with those like the Creation Immortal King, Creation Great Emperor, Creation Ancient Emperor, and Creation Divine Monarch," the mysterious old Taoist exclaimed after inhaling the golden gas, his aura surging like the rebirth of the Great Dao Principles, his feet on the ground and hand covering the sky.

Creation, creation!

This word is often spoken by cultivators, but none can truly grasp its intricacy.

"Whether you can achieve it depends on your creation!"

"Go forth! Fate will take its course."

When disciples asked what creation was, even the master could not answer; it was a perplexing concept. Wukong thought creation was about fortune, some thought it was mana, and others believed it was about the realm. Indeed, opinions varied widely.

The mysterious old Taoist stole the power of creation, absorbing it into his body, his mana surging, becoming incredibly formidable. If he could get a bit more, devouring the Great Dao and mastering the principles was not out of the question. His cultivation level had already reached a peak, and though the Creation Qi might not sound like much, it contained fragments of a mysterious principle.

Just like a thirsty person drinking water becomes thirstier, but drinking salt water quenches thirst quickly.

To the mysterious old Taoist, the Creation Qi was indeed like salt water, the best tonic!

"Who dares, lowly being from the Lower Realm, to steal and blaspheme creation!!!" A furious roar erupted as a Great Dao Sage burst out from the rift, aiming a punch at the mysterious old Taoist.

"Creation World is indeed full of formidable figures, as easy to encounter as street dogs, and out comes a powerful Great Dao Sage! But good, having absorbed that strand of Creation Qi, if I devour this saint now, my mana will surge even more! However, this being also possesses the means to truly kill a saint; I must remain cautious, not underestimate him," said the mysterious old Taoist, forming a Dharma Seal with his hands, manifesting a ninety thousand zhang tall willow.

The Three Thousand Great Worlds spun on three thousand strands of willow silks, then shattered, transforming into the force of annihilation. This was the true shattering of worlds, several hundred times more potent than the Great Dao Demon God’s Great Destruction Technique. In such a short period, this old Taoist’s progress was astonishing, having merged the Three Thousand Great Paths with Three Thousand Great Worlds to enhance the brutality of the Annihilation Technique.

"Great Destruction Technique! Three Thousand Worlds, all shattered; all origins, turned to ultimate ash! Annihilation, annihilation, all to annihilation!"

Upon the unleashing of the Great Destruction Technique, the Great Dao Sage was instantly enveloped and violently assaulted, his vestment robe tearing apart, his body bleeding profusely.

"Incredible, to think that such a formidable person exists under the Creation World! Such Divine Skills can only be controlled by the Supreme Creation, this is a true ’Great’ Dao Technique!" The Great Dao Sage was immensely shocked as he spat out a massive portal to shield himself.

Nobody recognized the two characters written on the portal, but a single glance at them caused headaches.

The characters were enormously distorted, constantly changing, known to the people of the Creation World as — Creation!

"This is the shadow of the Gate of Creation linking with the Creation World, evolved out of it, possessing infinite power! Yet, it’s just a shadow after all; I might have been somewhat concerned if it was an incarnation, but a mere shadow cannot stir up much trouble," the mysterious old Taoist slightly frowned but showed no fear.

As the Gate of Creation manifested, it instantly held off the Great Destruction Technique. Three thousand willow strands continually lashed down, the force of annihilation surging like tidal waves, one wave after another, even more tumultuous and grand!

"This is not good, I am no match for him! I never thought such a powerful figure would emerge from this insignificant Lower Realm. I must report to the Immortal Venerable quickly, or else who knows what he could stir up," thought the Great Dao Sage, his mind whirling like lightning.

In fact, this mysterious old Taoist had encountered people from the Creation World while hunting Great Dao Sages and Great Dao Demon Gods in the Lower Realm, who were refining Great Dao Principles to achieve Great Dao Sage status. He had hunted and devoured them, thereby discovering that above the Chaotic World, there lay a Creation World!

The Creation World truly ruled the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, a realm above the Great Dao Sage known as the Supreme Creation!

Having comprehended creation, defying the heavens and changing fate, he could grant great fortune to anyone, even reversing the will of the Great Dao, controlling the Great Dao, annihilating Great Dao Sages with a flip of the hand!

Only then did the mysterious old Taoist realize the true meaning of creation!

Thus, he began to even more frantically hunt Great Dao Sages, refine worlds, and hunt Great Dao Demon Gods, making his power grow stronger and stronger! To take control of the Great Dao and then enter the Creation World from the Chaotic World, he needed enough Power of Creation to become an even more powerful Creation Supreme.

At the end of the mountain and river, one doubts there is a path ahead, but suddenly, amid dark willows and bright flowers, a new village appears!

Who could have imagined that above the Chaotic World, there was a Creation World, or that above the Great Dao Sages, there could be a Creation Supreme!

Great Dao Sages are merely frogs in a well too!

The mysterious elder’s eyes were cold, and he said indifferently, "You want to escape and report to the higher Creation Supreme? It’s impossible, today you will be devoured alive by me! I’ll also take this phantom of the Door of Creation; it contains some Power of Creation and can suppress a Great Dao Sage. Very good, very good indeed!"

"Great Destruction Divine Fist!"

The mysterious elder struck down with a punch, causing the Door of Creation to tremble and nearly fly out.

The Great Dao Sage’s eyes turned blood red, in a desperate moment, his Primordial Spirit Thoughts burned crazily. Given even a slight chance, he could directly escape and then return to the Creation World, where he could report to the Creation Supreme. The multiple Creation Supremes would certainly not allow such a powerful Great Dao Sage to wreak havoc in the Lower Realm and would surely annihilate him with thunderous measures.

"Hong Jun came after the heavens, but I existed a billion years before him! Hong Jun, that worthless being, was already a master among the Great Dao Sages, and I am even stronger than him! You ant, inferior to Hong Jun, watch how I annihilate you in an instant! Just give me an hour, and I will devour you!" the mysterious elder screamed madly.

"You... are you really that Immortal Yang Mei? It is rumored that last time, when the Heavenly Dao Saint of the Peak Realm came down for training, you hunted them all down? But it was said that you encountered the wrath of the Supreme, how could you possibly have survived!" the Great Dao Sage roared.

"I, the old ancestor, have many tricks up my sleeve, he has his schemes, and I have my ways over the wall! Haha, hahaha! The wrath of the Supreme only annihilated half of my Primordial Spirit Thoughts, and now, I have cultivated back to form. Sooner or later, all the Creation Supremes will die by the hands of the old ancestor! Let me annihilate you, with the Great Destruction Technique, the Great Sacrificial Technique, the Great Refining Technique, the Great Burning Heaven Technique!" He unleashed four terrifying "Great" Dao Techniques in succession, intending to refine and devour this Great Dao Sage alive.

"Great Devouring Technique!"

"Rumble!"

Suddenly, a black hole emerged, exerting a massive suction force, and the origin connected to this black hole was none other than the true form of Immortal Yang Mei! By devouring him, he could completely refine him and claim his origin, meaning he would die forever, never to be revived.

The Door of Creation held by this Great Dao Sage was the same, containing the Power of Creation, disturbing the Great Dao and fate. Once killed, there could be no revival.

When considered carefully, even the Great Dao Demon Gods are mere ants!

Immortal Yang Mei’s black hole enveloped the Great Dao Sage in an instant, and then flames rose, immediately melting his physical body. The Primordial Spirit Thoughts that contained a trace of the Power of Creation were also devoured by Immortal Yang Mei! Then, with a wave of his hand, he repaired the rift that had just been torn, to avoid alerting the Creation Supremes in the Creation World— that would spell disaster.

"Another trace of the Power of Creation! Very well, very well! If I managed to control the Great Dao Principles, I could pass through the Door of Creation and enter the Creation World, where I could then fuse the Power of Creation into my body and achieve the status of Creation Supreme!" Immortal Yang Mei, having devoured this Great Dao Sage, was spirited and buoyant.

He sat down cross-legged and refined everything that belonged to this saint—his essence, spirit, energy, fragments of the Great Dao Principles, and fragments of the Power of Creation.

It took a full eight hundred years to completely digest it all!

His methods were truly too fierce, too terrifying, to have thus devoured a Great Dao Sage who was eternally indestructible under the Great Dao Principles and to have completely killed him! Not only were his methods fierce, but he was also ruthless and cruel. After killing a person, his face instead showed a relieved smile, which looked somewhat scary.

"This Great Dao Sage is still not comparable to that Intelligent Stone Monkey! It is said that within the Creation World, there is a Creation Supreme who was once an Intelligent Stone Monkey." Immortal Yang Mei slowly ground his teeth, wanting to devour Wukong, but he could not find his traces at the moment.

"Creation Supreme, Creation Supreme! One day, the old ancestor will achieve it! Then, you all must endure the wrath of the old ancestor. The old ancestor’s numerous Primordial Spirit Thoughts were not given to you merely for practice and to be killed for fun!" Immortal Yang Mei spoke viciously.

He stood up, his aura deeper, already at the Peak Realm of a Great Dao Sage, yet to control the Great Dao Principles then enter the Creation World was the only way to truly advance further!

Otherwise, for all his life, he would be nothing more than a frog in a well.
