Chapter 149 Zhen Yuanzi's Journey Through the Primordial World
This perfected version of the "Hidden Universe in the Sleeve" has undergone a qualitative leap in power:
By reconstructing the framework with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and strengthening the barrier with the chaotic origin of the earth, its spatial strength is sufficient to trap a Quasi-Saint (Primordial Golden Immortal) cultivator for a period of time.
Even for a mid-stage Primordial Golden Immortal, without special techniques to break through restrictions or a supreme treasure, escaping in a short time is by no means easy.
The interior forms a small, self-contained world, where earth, water, fire, and wind evolve, and chaotic energy permeates the air, continuously draining the trapped person's magical power, eroding their primordial spirit, and suppressing their Dao heart. The longer it goes on, the worse the trapped person's condition becomes.
Its destructive power may not be enough to immediately cripple a powerful being of the same level, after all, at this level, there are countless ways to save one's life.
However, its powerful ability to trap, harass, and exhaust enemies, as well as the suffocating and powerless feeling of being "taken into someone's sleeve," is undoubtedly extremely insulting to the proud and arrogant primordial beings.
This supernatural power is closely connected to Zhen Yuanzi's fundamental Dao, the "Great Earth Chaos Scripture".
As his understanding of the evolution of chaos and the mysteries of the universe deepens, the internal space of this "universe within a sleeve" can continue to expand and improve, and may even evolve into a small world in the future, at which time its power will be immeasurable.
Combining the "returning to the origin" ability of the Qiankun Cauldron, he could even consider decomposing some of the less important spiritual treasures he had confiscated in his sleeve Qiankun, replenishing their origin, and accelerating their evolution.
Zhen Yuanzi knew that the perfection of this supernatural power marked that he had truly entered the ranks of the top-tier masters in the primordial world, not only in terms of cultivation level but also in terms of practical combat skills.
With this hidden universe within his sleeve, combined with the Earth Book's defense, the Apricot Yellow Banner's invulnerability to all laws, the Flame Light Banner's chaotic Yin and Yang, and the mysterious "Great Earth Reincarnation Crossing," his methods of fighting became increasingly rich, multifaceted, and unfathomable.
He slowly withdrew his supernatural powers, his sleeves returned to normal, and the powerful aura around him was completely contained, revealing the chaotic and cosmic meaning flowing in his deep eyes.
Having fully perfected the "Universe in the Sleeve" supernatural power, Zhen Yuanzi felt his cultivation was complete and his vision for the future was becoming increasingly clear.
Thinking of Hongyun, who was still in seclusion in Huoyun Cave to cultivate his Dao, he got up and went to the entrance of the cave to investigate.
However, the entrance to the Fire Cloud Cave, which was integrated with the aura of the protective array of Longevity Mountain, still steadily flowed with crimson clouds and primordial yellow Daoist charm.
The inner aura was as deep as the sea, intertwined with the origin of the cave, indicating that Hongyun was still in a deep state of enlightenment and his fusion with the Fire Cloud Cave had reached a critical moment, making it difficult for him to emerge from seclusion for the time being.
"Fellow Daoist, you have great fortune. You must have gained a lot from this seclusion."
Zhen Yuanzi paused for a moment, a look of satisfaction on his face. He did not speak to disturb him, nor did he use his divine sense to investigate further, so as not to interfere with his close friend's cultivation.
He knew that such a blessed land, perfectly aligned with his own Dao, was a rare and precious opportunity.
With his home grounds settled and his close friends in seclusion, Zhen Yuanzi conceived the idea of traveling.
Since the day he fought the Qiankun Daoist and returned with the cauldron, he had been in seclusion refining the Qiankun Cauldron and perfecting his supernatural powers. Although he had a vague sense of the passage of time and the changes in the primordial world, he had never witnessed them firsthand.
Now, his premonition of an impending catastrophe is growing stronger, and he needs to go and see for himself what this primordial world has become.
He did not disturb any living beings within the Wuzhuang Temple, whether it was Qingfeng and Mingyue tending the herb garden, Emperor and Zhenwu in seclusion, or the Nine-Headed Lion and the Four Divine Beasts patrolling the mountain boundary.
With just a slight thought, his figure seemed to merge into the void, silently passing through the resilient innate earth-guarding array's light barrier, and appearing in the vast world outside Longevity Mountain.
As soon as you step out of the mountain gate, a completely different atmosphere from the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere inside Longevity Hill hits you.
The air was filled with a restless, chilling, and wildly untamed atmosphere. As the spiritual energy flowed, it seemed to carry a subtle hint of malevolence and calamity.
Zhen Yuanzi did not use any earth-shattering escape techniques. Instead, he acted like an ordinary wandering cultivator, taking a single step and his figure was already tens of thousands of miles away, leisurely walking among the primordial mountains and rivers.
He deliberately concealed his powerful aura as a mid-stage, perfected Golden Immortal, appearing as a gentle breeze or a drifting cloud, untouched by dust or disturbing anything.
However, within his double pupils, the left eye reflects the mountains and rivers, the right eye perceives the laws of space, and the deepest chaotic meaning senses the general trend and calamities that permeate the world.
What he saw along the way moved even this ancient being who had witnessed the beginning of time and the sprouting of all things.
He traveled to the shores of the East China Sea, where he saw a vast expanse of sea, with countless aquatic creatures patrolling beneath the waves in perfect order.
Amidst the fluttering banners, dragon totems could be seen. Huge patrol ships cleaved through the waves, upon which stood shrimp soldiers and crab generals clad in golden armor, exuding a fierce aura. Occasionally, dragons would soar through the air to patrol, their sharp eyes scanning the sea and the coastline.
Along the river mouths, dragon outposts and checkpoints were set up, guarded by yakshas skilled in water magic, who inspected aquatic creatures and collected offerings, demonstrating the dragons' absolute control over the waters.
Some of the originally independent river spirits and sea monsters either disappeared or submitted to the dragon clan, becoming part of its vast water system governance network.
The aura of the First Dragon was like an invisible ocean, covering almost all the waters of the primordial world, and none of the scaled creatures dared to disobey it.
Turning south, approaching the area of influence of the immortal volcano, the scenery in the sky is different from that at sea. Flocks of birds can often be seen soaring across the sky, their plumage magnificent and their formations orderly, unlike the scattered behavior of wild birds.
With powerful feathered creatures such as the Azure Phoenix, Fire Crow, and Bifang as vanguards, and countless birds of prey such as eagles and hawks as claws and teeth, they patrol the airspace belonging to the Phoenix Clan.
Some towering mountain peaks have been transformed into observation points or palaces for the Phoenix Clan, guarded by the Feathered Clan.
Deep within the clouds, one can occasionally sense the powerful aura of flames, which is the presence of the Phoenix Clan's own elite members patrolling.
Yuan Feng's will, like an invisible net, covered most of the sky in the prehistoric world, and all birds obeyed its commands.
With the virtue of the Qilin, the ruler of all beasts stepped into the primordial inland land, and the vast land became the domain of the Qilin clan.
You can see herds of animals, like a well-trained army, migrating or patrolling along specific routes.
Lions, tigers, leopards and other ferocious beasts served as soldiers, wolf packs as scouts, elephants and rhinoceroses as transport or assault forces, and even some herbivorous animals such as deer and sheep formed a huge logistical support group.
At certain spiritual vein nodes and major transportation routes, settlements or fortresses directly governed by the Qilin clan were established, characterized by their ancient and profound style, connected to the spirit of the earth.
The benevolent aura of the Primordial Qilin, mixed with unquestionable majesty, was like the thick earth itself, covering the main landmass of the primordial world, and all beasts and races revered it as their leader.
