Ancestral Dragon
Little did they know that although the battle at Mount Buzhou ended quickly, it still alarmed some important figures.
For example, Old Ancestor Qiankun, one of the Chaos Demon Gods, sensed something the moment Li Xinghe used the Qiankun Cauldron.
"Li Xinghe, you've finally shown yourself!" Old Ancestor Qiankun snorted coldly.
If Li Xinghe hadn't specifically demanded the Qiankun Cauldron back then, Old Ancestor Qiankun wouldn't have perished so quickly. This Karma was formed.
As one of the top Demon Gods in the Chaos World, Old Ancestor Qiankun's strength was beyond doubt.
Later, even Hongjun invited him to deal with Demon Ancestor Luo Hou together, but unfortunately, he was tricked by Hongjun and died at Luo Hou's hands.
During the Calamity of Creation, Old Ancestor Qiankun perished, and a wisp of his true spirit Reincarnated into the Honghuang World.
To his surprise, this Reincarnation even came with a companion Spirit Treasure, and it was a Qiankun Cauldron, formed from the lotus pod of the chaos green lotus, the great scapegoat.
In terms of Rank, it was also a Supreme-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Although not as good as the original Qiankun Cauldron, given the current cultivation level in the Honghuang World, it was already the most powerful treasure available.
His greatest regret was the Chaos Spirit Treasure Qiankun Cauldron that Li Xinghe had snatched away.
Pangu Great God killed the Three Thousand Demon Gods during the creation of the world, but Li Xinghe, as Pangu's sworn brother, certainly didn't die.
As long as he found Li Xinghe, reclaimed the original Qiankun Cauldron, and combined it with the current replica Qiankun Cauldron, even if it wasn't a Chaos Supreme Treasure, it would far surpass the Innate Supreme Treasure of the Honghuang World. At that Time Law, who in the Honghuang World could contend with him?
In the Honghuang World, Magic Treasures are categorized from strongest to weakest as Supreme Treasure, Supreme-Grade, High Grade, Medium Grade, and Low Grade.
Besides these, there's also a distinction between Innate and Acquired.
In terms of power, for Magic Treasures of the same Rank, Innate is stronger than Acquired. For example, an Innate Supreme Treasure is stronger than an Acquired Treasure, and a Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure is stronger than a Supreme-Grade Acquired Spirit Treasure.
Chaos Supreme Treasure, however, surpasses both Innate and Acquired, being the strongest existence.
Furthermore, the most special are the Chaos Spirit Treasures, which are the companion Spirit Treasures of some Demon Gods from the beginning of Chaos.
Some powerful Chaos Spirit Treasures even far exceed Innate Supreme Treasures, such as the Time Wheel of Daoist Time Law and the Destiny Wheel of the Master of Fate.
At this moment, Li Xinghe had already entered the shores of the East Sea, which was the territory of the Dragon Clan.
Relatively speaking, the Dragon Clan was much stronger than the Qilin Clan, but with Tao Tie and Tao Wu, two of the four Fierce Beasts, leading the charge, they had almost leveled the East Sea.
At this moment, Ancestral Dragon was struggling to cope. Although he was already a Grand Unity Golden Immortal Middle Stage, the two opposing Fierce Beasts were at the same Rank as him. Fighting one against two, he was no match at all.
"Ancestral Dragon, the Fierce Beast Clan is wreaking havoc in the Honghuang World. I, representing Pangu Great God, hereby bestow upon the Dragon Clan the title of commander of the Scaled Armor Lineage in the Honghuang World, to resist the Fierce Beasts." Li Xinghe arrived, stepping through the air.
Ancestral Dragon was first stunned, then, like Shi Qilin, he made a grand vow. Instantly, countless Karma descended, and Ancestral Dragon directly Broke through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Late Stage.
The entire Dragon Clan also received immense benefits and began to counter-attack the Fierce Beast Clan.
Tao Wu and Tao Tie, seeing the unfavorable situation, immediately turned and fled.
This Time Law, Li Xinghe did not intervene. Ever since he was warned by the Dao for digging the Chaos Bell last Time Law, he had become much more low-key.
Killing Chaos earlier was purely because he ate dumplings without soy sauce; otherwise, Li Xinghe wouldn't even bother to act.
"Who are you, divine being?" Compared to Shi Qilin, Ancestral Dragon was considerably more arrogant.
Among the myriad races of the Honghuang World, excluding the Fierce Beasts, his cultivation was the highest. Now that he had Broken through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Late Stage, he was naturally incredibly proud.
"I am the brother of Pangu Great God. Today, I have come specifically to help you resist the Fierce Beasts." Li Xinghe frowned. This fellow was putting on airs. Wasn't he just a Grand Unity Golden Immortal Late Stage?
No wonder the Dragon Han Calamity later caused him to provoke the Phoenix Clan and Qilin Clan to unite against him.
"So, you are one of the Three Thousand Demon Gods, but merely a failure." Ancestral Dragon wore an arrogant expression, seemingly with a hint of disdain.
In his heart, perhaps only Pangu Great God could be considered a true powerhouse, after all, the Honghuang World was created by him.
"What the hell! Giving you face!" Li Xinghe stepped forward and gave him a hard slap across the face.
Ancestral Dragon didn't react in Time Law and was sent flying by the slap.
"How dare you!" The Dragon Clan members were enraged and immediately rushed forward.
Li Xinghe didn't tolerate them either. He slapped again, and all the Dragon Clan members were struck half-dead.
Ancestral Dragon was furious. He had just managed to Break through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Late Stage, only to be slapped in public by someone.
"You're courting death!" Ancestral Dragon immediately brought out his companion Spirit Treasure, the legendary Ancestral Dragon Pearl.
This treasure was formed by the creation of heaven and earth, and it was said to be infinitely close to an Innate Supreme Treasure, ranking among the top treasures in the Honghuang World.
However, after Ancestral Dragon's demise, this treasure's whereabouts became unknown.
"It seems you won't learn without a lesson." Li Xinghe snorted coldly. A mere Ancestral Dragon Pearl was nothing in his eyes.
A ruler appeared in his hand; it was precisely the Karma Supreme Treasure, the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.
Ancestral Dragon angrily charged forward, but was beaten bloody by the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler. Even the Ancestral Dragon Pearl showed some cracks.
"Innate Supreme Treasure!" Ancestral Dragon was greatly astonished.
He had always believed that the Dragon Clan was uniquely blessed and that the Ancestral Dragon Pearl was a rare treasure in the Honghuang World. He never expected this person to possess an Innate Supreme Treasure, just like Shen Ni.
Li Xinghe snorted coldly, "If it weren't for your meritorious service in destroying the Fierce Beasts, this Venerable One would have annihilated you already."
Ancestral Dragon was not afraid. He had received the Karma of Heavenly Dao, and destroying the Fierce Beasts was a mandate of Heaven.
Like Hongjun and Luo Hou, for now, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans were the favored ones of the Heavenly Dao in the Honghuang World. He didn't believe Li Xinghe would dare to kill him.
"The shame of today, my Dragon Clan has noted it down. We will certainly seek guidance another day." Ancestral Dragon turned and entered the depths of the ocean.
Li Xinghe frowned deeply. Ancestral Dragon had clearly also received some favor from the Heavenly Dao. After the Fierce Beast Tribulation ended, the three clans would receive more blessings from the Heavenly Dao.
At that Time Law, the three clans would become even stronger, and Ancestral Dragon, as the strongest among the three clans, would at least be at the Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal (Quasi-Saint) level by then.
No wonder he was so arrogant, showing no fear even in the face of the powerful Li Xinghe.
"Then just wait and see. If you anger me, perhaps the Dragon Han Calamity will begin prematurely." Li Xinghe was also preparing to leave.
Just then, he suddenly had a premonition. After a quick calculation in secret, a peculiar smile appeared on his face.
He was proficient in the Destiny Law and Time Law, and could foresee what was about to happen.
In the Void Realm not far away, a powerful aura rapidly rushed over.
"Li Xinghe, return my Qiankun Cauldron!" It turned out to be Old Ancestor Qiankun who had arrived.
As one of the top twenty Chaos Demon Gods in the Chaos World, he didn't put Li Xinghe in his eyes at all.
At the beginning of the Calamity of Creation, Li Xinghe had only barely Broken through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Rank.
Now, it hadn't been long since creation, so he was probably only at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Middle Stage or Late Stage.
Even if he possessed a Supreme Treasure, with his Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation, he probably couldn't fully unleash the Supreme Treasure's power.
And Old Ancestor Qiankun had long ago refined the replica Qiankun Cauldron, and had just Broken through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Late Stage.
"Old Ancestor Qiankun, don't you have a new Qiankun Cauldron?" Li Xinghe said with a half-smile.
Old Ancestor Qiankun was greatly astonished, thinking, 'How did he know?'
But then anger surged in his heart. Li Xinghe was clearly mocking him.
He, the dignified Old Ancestor Qiankun, was holding a replica Qiankun Cauldron, while the genuine article was in the opponent's hands. It was an utter humiliation.
"Enough nonsense. Return the Qiankun Cauldron to me, and I can spare your life today." Old Ancestor Qiankun snorted coldly.
"Is that so? Just you?" Li Xinghe burst out laughing, revealing his Da Luo Golden Immortal Peak aura.
Old Ancestor Qiankun was greatly astonished, never expecting Li Xinghe's cultivation speed to be so fast. For Chaos Demon Gods like them, a hundred thousand or eighty thousand years passed in a blink of an eye, and each Realm advancement was calculated in Yuanhui.
According to the Honghuang World's calculation method, one Yuanhui is equivalent to 129,600 years. Now, only about one Yuanhui has passed since the Calamity of Creation, yet Li Xinghe had gone from Grand Unity Golden Immortal Early Stage to Da Luo Golden Immortal Peak.
