#2845 - A lost era
After half an incense stick's time, Jun Wuxie, Mo Qingli, and the Xuanming Serpent stopped.
They were now situated near the summit of a mountain peak.
This mountain was relatively low compared to others on the island.
Their current location was relatively flat, with a cliff on the left, a forest on the left side, and a mountain wall in front.
"That scared me to death…"
The Xuanming Serpent plopped down beside a clear puddle, panting heavily.
"Are you alright?"
Jun Wuxie looked at Mo Qingli, whose ears still had traces of blood.
"I'm fine, just a ruptured eardrum."
Mo Qingli gently shook her head, "I didn't expect this place to be so dangerous, and there are even Primordial Chaos creatures!
That Primordial Chaos creature from before was at least at the Chaos Realm.
Fortunately, its body was too large, and its movements were restricted by the terrain.
Plus, it didn't seem willing to destroy its own territory, otherwise, we would have had a hard time escaping."
"Yeah, that was terrifying! I can't believe such creatures still exist in the world!
Weren't they supposed to be extinct?"
The Xuanming Serpent was still in shock, and the memory of what happened was still fresh in his mind.
If they had been any slower, they probably would have been done for.
The three of them wouldn't even have been enough to fill the Primordial Chaos creature's teeth.
Now that he thought about it, the place seemed to have a lot of white bones scattered on the ground.
Those bones were very thick, obviously from savage beasts, creatures that were killed and eaten by the Primordial Chaos creature.
"What bloodline are you talking about when you say Primordial Chaos creature?"
Jun Wuxie had finally encountered an area where he lacked knowledge.
"Huh? You don't even know about Primordial Chaos creatures?"
The Xuanming Serpent was surprised, finding it hard to believe that Yuanchu wouldn't know about them.
Su Qingqian knew, but Yuanchu didn't?
Mo Qingli was also taken aback for a moment before explaining, "Primordial Chaos creature is actually a general term for creatures that appeared in a special era.
That era has always been a legend, a result of ancient powerhouses' speculations based on certain clues.
Later, many beast bones were discovered, and through the study of these bones, it was inferred that very powerful creatures lived in that era, and they called these creatures Primordial Chaos creatures.
I didn't expect that we would see a real Primordial Chaos creature in this Unknown Region today…"
"The Primordial Chaos Era?"
"Yes, the concept of the Primordial Chaos Era is not widely known, and most people wouldn't know about it. Only the core figures of powerful and ancient forces would know.
It is said that the Primordial Chaos Era was a relatively short era that appeared after the disappearance of the Beginningless Epoch.
The heavens and earth of that era did not completely encompass the current heavens, but formed a special space in a corner of the heavens, giving birth to a lot of Chaos Qi, which later evolved into the Primordial Chaos World, giving rise to a group of powerful creatures.
It's just that, for some reason, that corner of the Primordial Chaos World suddenly disappeared later, and those powerful creatures also disappeared, leaving behind only some remains.
The disappearance of the Primordial Chaos Era ushered in the Immortal Ancient Epoch, dominated by the human race."
Suddenly.
Roar—
A deafening roar interrupted their conversation.
Jun Wuxie, Mo Qingli, and the Xuanming Serpent simultaneously looked towards the direction of the sound.
They stood on the edge of the cliff, with a panoramic view of the vast mountains and rivers.
This place was located on the edge of the island, offering a perfect view of the sea.
The sound came from the beach.
At this moment, there were two behemoths confronting each other on the beach.
One came from the sea, covered in cyan scales, with eight arms, exuding a Primordial Chaos aura, and surrounded by faint Chaos Qi.
On the beach, a creature resembling an ape, covered in black fur and the size of a mountain, was pounding its chest and roaring at the creature in the sea!
"It's the Eight-Armed Primordial Chaos Beast and the Primordial Chaos Demon Ape!
Judging from their realms, they should both be at the Chaos Realm!"
Mo Qingli explained that ancient powerhouses had used secret techniques to restore the appearance of some Primordial Chaos creatures based on their remains and recorded them in ancient books.
She had seen ancient books with pictures and descriptions of those creatures.
"This Eight-Armed Primordial Chaos Beast and the Primordial Chaos Demon Ape have not yet reached the Great Completion stage.
According to the ancient powerhouses' deduction of the bloodline potential of these creatures, the Chaos Realm doesn't even count as Small Completion.
This island is too terrifying. We've only seen three Primordial Chaos creatures above the Chaos Realm at the edge of the island!"
"Indeed, it's not even Small Completion. With the bloodline strength of these creatures, as long as they reach Great Completion, they will definitely be at the Quasi-Emperor Realm.
And the Quasi-Emperor Realm is definitely not the end. They can continue to grow.
However, although their bloodlines are extremely strong, they also have drawbacks, which is that their intelligence cannot be fully developed, so they cannot cultivate mental techniques. Therefore, there are bottlenecks in Great Completion, and it is even more difficult to reach the Emperor Realm.
But their advantage is that as long as they don't die, they don't need to cultivate any mental techniques. Just the potential inherent in their bloodlines can steadily grow to infinitely close to the Quasi-Emperor Realm without any bottlenecks.
The number of Primordial Chaos creatures on this island must be considerable.
The Unknown Region is a lost place, and also a lost era."
Jun Wuxie's gaze fell on the Eight-Armed Primordial Chaos Beast and the Primordial Chaos Demon Ape.
The atmosphere between these two Primordial Chaos creatures was already very tense, and a great battle could break out at any time.
"Let's pray that we don't encounter Primordial Chaos creatures that suck bone marrow.
Those creatures are very small, so they must be very agile, not restricted by the terrain, and they also move in groups. Once we encounter them, I'm afraid we'll have a hard time escaping…"
The Xuanming Serpent felt terrified just thinking about it.
"I didn't know they were Primordial Chaos creatures before, but now that I think about it, the ones that suck bone marrow should be a type of Primordial Chaos creature called Marrow Worms.
According to descriptions in ancient books, Marrow Worms are as thin as cotton threads, half an inch long, and resemble soft-bodied worms.
When they are not moving, their bodies are soft, and they move by crawling and wriggling. Once they enter attack mode, their bodies become extremely hard and full of toughness, shooting out like needles, piercing the bodies of creatures, breaking through bones, and sucking bone marrow."
"Ew, how disgusting!"
The Xuanming Serpent shuddered.
Jun Wuxie glanced at him, thinking, isn't your main body, that big Jiaomang, disgusting?
"The characteristics of Marrow Worms should not be limited to this, otherwise, how could they penetrate a person's body and enter the bones?
Although this island greatly restricts the abilities of cultivators and suppresses the power of secret techniques and divine powers, it also restricts the power of Primordial Chaos creatures.
Here, cultivators can use protective Immortal罡.
If Marrow Worms only have these abilities, it's impossible for so many powerhouses to have suffered."
"Yuanchu is right. Marrow Worms also have a characteristic, which is that their bloodline power grants them the power to erode laws.
The protective Immortal罡 of cultivators will be corroded by the saliva they secrete, becoming useless and unable to provide protection.
Ancient powerhouses analyzed that the power of immortal techniques and secret techniques would also be greatly reduced when used against Marrow Worms."
Jun Wuxie nodded upon hearing this, "That is to say, Marrow Worms can not only corrode immortal laws, but also have extremely strong immortal law resistance, which can greatly weaken the power of immortal laws acting on themselves.
These special creatures are indeed terrifying, especially for human cultivators.
Generally speaking, the physical bodies of humans are generally weaker compared to other creatures.
Only a very small number of ancient bloodlines possess strong physical bodies.
If the blood energy is not strong enough, encountering Marrow Worms is very troublesome, and it is easy to be breached by them."
"Actually, Marrow Worms also have a certain degree of corrosion and resistance to physical body blood energy, but the effect is much weaker compared to immortal law power."
"Are you kidding me? Are Marrow Worms all-rounders? They simply have no weaknesses!
Fortunately, my physical body is strong, and my blood energy is abundant. As long as the realm of the Marrow Worms is not too high, they shouldn't be able to break through my protective blood energy, right?"
The Xuanming Serpent initially thought that Marrow Worms could corrode law power but didn't have this effect on blood energy.
He never expected that those things actually had a certain degree of corrosion and resistance to blood energy!
"They probably can't break through you in the same realm. If you encounter Marrow Worms above the Creation Realm, the skeletons in the Land of No Return will be your epitaph."
Jun Wuxie deliberately scared him.
In fact, he wasn't exaggerating. If he wasn't here, the Xuanming Serpent would have no chance of survival if he encountered Marrow Worms.
"Yuanchu, I'm still young, still a baby, don't scare me!"
The Xuanming Serpent felt a chill all over his body, and his hair stood on end.
At this moment, a roar came from afar, like thunder, immediately attracting their attention.
It was at the edge of the island, where the coast and the sea met.
The Eight-Armed Primordial Chaos Beast and the Primordial Chaos Demon Ape had started fighting.
The two Primordial Chaos creatures, which had been confronting each other for some time, had finally broken the stalemate and launched a fierce attack.
The seawater rose thousands of feet high, like a tsunami, and the scene was terrifying.
It should be known that in this Unknown Region, due to the suppression of order and rules, the abilities of cultivators are greatly restricted, and it is very difficult to create such a scene. Human cultivators can hardly do it.
At least Jun Wuxie and the others cannot do it, and even a powerhouse at the Chaos Realm cannot do it.
Unless a powerhouse at the Hongmeng Realm arrives, this is possible.
But the Primordial Chaos creatures at the Chaos Realm did it.
The waves raised during the battle reached a height of thousands of feet.
It was only because their bodies were too large, hundreds of feet tall!
In this special world, such a huge body contains terrifying power, which is evident.
The battle between the Eight-Armed Primordial Chaos Beast and the Primordial Chaos Demon Ape didn't show any special phenomena.
Only the flashing patterns between the collisions of the two sides, and the immortal power and blood energy surging like a tsunami, spread out, expanding in all directions, covering hundreds of meters.
Compared to their bodies, the aftermath radius of several hundred meters was actually very small.
However, in this special unknown domain, it was already terrifying.
“Two Great Wilderness creatures are fighting!
Yuan Chu, do you think the Great Wilderness creatures will fight to the death?
If that's the case, can we be the mantis stalking the cicada, and give them a fatal blow when they're on their last breaths!
These creatures are treasures from head to toe! The Great Wilderness beast core inside their bodies is the source of all their power!
If we can get one… … ”
The Xuanming Flood Dragon began to fantasize, rubbing its hands excitedly.
“You can go if you want to die, I won't stop you.”
Jun Wuxie glanced at the Xuanming Flood Dragon indifferently.
This guy really dared to think.
Even if they were on their last breaths, a dying blow from a Great Wilderness creature of this realm would be enough to take the Xuanming Flood Dragon's life.
Great Wilderness creatures mainly derive their power from their physical bodies and blood, not mana.
This means that their vitality is extremely tenacious.
Even if they fall, they can still rely on their stubborn vitality to complete a final blow, which is very deadly.
“I didn't say I was going, you go!
Your strength is stronger than mine, if you go, you might succeed!”
The Xuanming Flood Dragon vigorously encouraged Jun Wuxie, “Look, this is a great opportunity, isn't it?
A Chaos Realm Great Wilderness creature's beast core, the source of power, doesn't that tempt you?
If you get it, you will definitely be able to break through your realm and become stronger with the beast core.
If you miss this opportunity, I'm afraid you won't have another chance to encounter such a good thing in the future, you will regret it!”
Seeing that Jun Wuxie didn't speak, but just looked at him, the Xuanming Flood Dragon patted his chest, “When the time comes, you go and deal with the badly injured Eight-Armed Chaos Great Wilderness Beast and the Great Wilderness Divine Demon Ape, and I'll keep watch for you, making sure no other Great Wilderness creatures approach.
I only want half a beast core, I'm very generous and easily satisfied, not greedy at all.”
Jun Wuxie's expression was a non-smile, he reached out and grabbed his collar, lifting him up, “Trying to get something for nothing, you're really generous, wanting to divide half a Chaos Realm Great Wilderness beast core without contributing a single bit of strength.”
The Xuanming Flood Dragon laughed awkwardly twice, “Hehe, um, let go first, and let me quibble for you… … no… … let me explain to you… …
The energy contained in the two Great Wilderness beast cores is too vast.
You are only in the Eternal Life Realm, you can't bear it at all.
Besides, who knows if there will be backlash when refining the beast core?
I want to share the backlash force for you, I'm afraid you and Su Qingqian won't be able to suppress it… …
Ah! Hey, hey, hey, Yuan Chu, what are you doing!
No, no, I was wrong, isn't it okay to be wrong?”
Before the Xuanming Flood Dragon could finish speaking, it screamed.
Just because Jun Wuxie was about to throw him off the cliff.
“I didn't realize you had so many bad ideas, but you admit your mistakes pretty quickly, you have a strong desire to survive?”
Jun Wuxie pulled him back, let go of his collar, “Be honest with me, don't cause trouble, you still want to take the beast core, is your brain broken?”
He pointed to the vast island, “The Eight-Armed Chaos Great Wilderness Beast and the Great Wilderness Divine Demon Ape are fighting, with such a big commotion, do you think it won't alarm the other Great Wilderness creatures on the island?
Right now, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching.
Even if they die together, it won't be your turn to pick up the scraps on the beach!”
“I'm just not willing… … ”
The Xuanming Flood Dragon muttered.
“You have to be willing even if you're not willing, if you're really not willing, you can go yourself, I won't stop you.”
“Oh, then forget it.”
“Alright, keep quiet, you were a bit loud just now, if you attract the Great Wilderness creatures, I'll throw you over.”
As Jun Wuxie spoke, his gaze returned to the Eight-Armed Chaos Great Wilderness Beast and the Great Wilderness Divine Demon Ape fighting on the edge of the island.
At this time, the battle was very fierce, and blood splattered on both of them.
Obviously, both sides were injured.
However, the injuries were not very serious, just some skin injuries, and for their huge size, the wounds were not deep.
His pupil technique could see clearly.
“Lord, are we going to watch them fight to the end here?”
Mo Qingli communicated through divine sense.
“No, our purpose is not to watch them fight, but to try to wait for a certain Great Wilderness creature to appear.”
Mo Qingli was stunned, “Which Great Wilderness creature?”
“The first Great Wilderness creature we encountered when we came.”
Mo Qingli heard this and showed a thoughtful expression, “Lord is thinking?”
“That Great Wilderness creature is not a mammal.”
“Ah? How does Lord know?”
“Of course, I saw it with my eyes, mammals must have mammary organs, but it doesn't have them.
Therefore, is it possible that there are Great Wilderness creature eggs in its cave?
I think it looks a bit like a different kind of Demon Dragon from the True Dragon Clan, if there are Great Wilderness different kind of Demon Dragon eggs in its nest, it would be an excellent resource, it must contain vast life essence.”
After hearing this, Mo Qingli couldn't help but lower her head and glanced at her towering peaks, and then seemed a little surprised why she would have such a reaction, and couldn't help but pause.
“Lord means, when that Great Wilderness different kind of Demon Dragon is attracted by the Eight-Armed Chaos Great Wilderness Beast and the Great Wilderness Divine Demon Ape, and leaves its nest to go to the seaside, we take the opportunity to sneak into its nest and take its dragon eggs?”
“That's right, it depends on whether that Great Wilderness different kind of Demon Dragon will pick up this bargain.
After all, devouring the beast core of a Great Wilderness creature of the same realm can make it grow faster.
For a Chaos Realm Great Wilderness creature, this is an opportunity.
Fortunately, its nest is not too far from the place where the Eight-Armed Chaos Great Wilderness Beast and the Great Wilderness Divine Demon Ape are fighting, it should be able to alarm it, so we are not without a chance.”
After hearing this, Mo Qingli began to look forward to it.
That is the egg of a Chaos Realm Great Wilderness different kind of Demon Dragon, containing its life essence, which is the life energy of the Chaos Realm level!
This kind of life energy is beneficial to both Lord and herself.
It can be used to strengthen one's physical body and increase physical strength.
It is even more beneficial for a body cultivator like Lord, it is exactly what he needs!
