Chapter 102 Hongjun's Defeat and Escape
Due to the Qilin clan's voluntary retreat, the fortune carried by their clan was inevitably affected to some extent, showing some slight signs of decline.
Although this change is subtle, it is a signal that cannot be ignored by various races that place great importance on the rise and fall of their fortunes.
In stark contrast, the Phoenix Clan's fortunes were somewhat restored due to the Qilin Clan's concession, like a long-awaited rain after a drought, slightly replenishing the vitality that had been severely damaged by the loss of many powerful figures.
Meanwhile, the Dragon Clan received a team invitation from the Primordial Qilin at this time. The Primordial Qilin hoped that the Dragon Clan could send people over now to join forces with their Qilin Clan to annihilate the Phoenix Clan while their strength was weakened.
However, the dragon race hesitated briefly upon hearing this proposal.
After much deliberation and discussion, Zulong ultimately decided to decline Shi Qilin's invitation.
the reason is simple.
Since you, Qilin, have already conceded a step, it doesn't matter if you concede a few more steps.
After all, the Qilin had come to the East Sea alone before, and the Qilin clan's strength had not diminished in the previous battle with the Phoenix Clan.
However, the situation of the Dragon Clan is quite different. In their previous fierce battles with the Phoenix Clan, they suffered heavy losses and countless deaths.
If they were to go to war with the Phoenix Clan again, the Dragon Clan's fortune would likely be completely unstable.
More importantly, no one knows for sure when this primordial calamity will end.
If the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan join forces to defeat the Phoenix Clan, but the Great Calamity continues, and if the Qilin Clan suddenly changes its stance and turns its attention to the Dragon Clan after defeating the Phoenix Clan, then the Dragon Clan will surely face annihilation.
In such a complex, ever-changing situation filled with unknown risks, the dragon race had to act cautiously in order to ensure the survival and development of their own race.
Therefore, the First Dragon also asked the First Qilin to wait a few days, allowing the experts in his dragon clan to recover some of their injuries before proceeding.
When the First Qilin heard that the Ancestral Dragon had rejected its request, it couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
But he also knew that the dragon race had indeed suffered many casualties in the previous battle in the East Sea.
After thinking about it, he realized that he could only ask his subordinates to be more tolerant for a while longer.
And in Yujing Mountain.
Rahu and Hongjun were still locked in battle.
At this moment, the two not only used the treasures they had, but also took out the fragments of the Creation Jade Disc they had obtained.
The fragment of the Creation Jade Disc above Hongjun's head was a full size larger than the one on Luo Hou's body.
It was almost twice the size of the fragment of the Creation Jade Disc on Luo Hou's body.
Even with such a clear difference in magical treasures, Hongjun's signs of defeat were gradually becoming apparent.
Even now, they seem to be struggling to withstand Rahu's attacks.
Although Hongjun was in a state of utter defeat, apart from his disheveled appearance, there was not a trace of panic on his face.
Hongjun also had his own plans. Although he was no match for Rahu, he was not without a chance to escape.
After all, he still had three corpses outside.
The reason he hadn't summoned the Three Corpses back yet was precisely so that even if he were to be defeated by Rahu.
Surely we can escape alive, right?
All he had to do was find a way to get rid of the two innate treasures and the fragments of the Creation Jade Disc that he possessed.
But unless absolutely necessary, Hongjun did not want to perish here.
After all, he can be resurrected by severing his corpse, but in doing so, it is inevitable that his cultivation level will decline, and it is unknown how long it will take for him to recover to the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm.
At this moment, Luo Hou did not expect that Hongjun could withstand him for so long.
He underestimated this old mudfish in front of him.
Although the process took a little longer, he will be able to catch this old mudfish soon.
I'll see how Hong Yuan reacts then.
Could it be that you're reluctant to part with that Chaos Spiritual Root?
However, at that very moment, Hongjun suddenly mobilized all his magical power and law inscriptions, as if he had lost his mind. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he fell into a state of madness, rushing towards Rahu ahead without regard for anything else.
The three peerless treasures—the Pangu Banner, the Heavenly Auspicious Clouds, and the fragments of the Creation Jade Disc—appeared simultaneously.
The oppressive aura and power emanating from these three supreme treasures intertwined, forming a devastating torrent that swept towards Rahu with overwhelming force.
However, faced with such a terrifying offensive, Rahu merely smiled slightly.
In his eyes, Hongjun's actions were nothing more than a trapped beast's struggle, posing no real threat to him whatsoever.
Even when he saw Hongjun's crazed appearance, a hint of contempt involuntarily appeared on his face.
"It seems this old mudfish knows its days are numbered and is preparing for a last-ditch struggle," Luo Hou thought to himself.
After thinking it over, Rahu also brandished the God-Slaying Spear in his hand, as if countless wronged souls were roaring and gods and demons were wailing, fully displaying the name of the supreme weapon of slaughter.
The next second, a cold glint flashed from the tip of the God-Slaying Spear, as if it could pierce through endless space and time.
Under the sharpness of this spear, even a Grand Luo Golden Immortal would probably have to vomit blood and retreat in defeat.
The twelve-petaled black lotus of destruction and the fragments of the Jade Disc of Creation standing atop Rahu also unleashed endless divine light in an instant. In that instant, the world seemed to lose its color, the sun and moon lost their light, and wherever its power reached, everything shattered into dust.
The already fragmented Jade Capital Mountain could no longer withstand the six supreme treasures on these two people, and at this moment it completely turned into nothingness and dissipated into the void.
"boom!!"
In an instant, the light stretched for countless light-years.
A deafening roar was heard.
At this moment, the God-Slaying Spear in Luo Hou's hand actually pierced through Hongjun's primordial spirit.
Even his body exploded at that moment.
There is no trace of Hongjun anymore.
But Luo Hou's expression changed.
This is not Hongjun!!
The three treasures on Hongjun's body vanished into thin air the next second.
Seeing this, Luo Hou also quickly exerted his perception to the fullest extent.
Not long after, Rahu also noticed Hongjun fleeing from hundreds of billions of light-years away.
At this moment, the three treasures that had just escaped had returned to his hands.
This prompted Rahu to unleash a furious curse.
"You old mudfish, trying to outwit me, the Demon Ancestor? Let's see where you run!"
Having said that, Luo Hou hurriedly began to chase after him.
Hongjun noticed the commotion behind him and his expression changed slightly.
He quickly used all his strength.
During this process, he did not forget to activate the fragments of the Creation Jade Disc, trying his best to conceal his whereabouts.
Seeing this, Luo Hou sneered, "So you think you're the only one with a fragment of the Jade Disc of Creation?!"
Suddenly, Rahu felt a blur before his eyes, and when he came to his senses, he found that Hongjun had completely disappeared from his sight.
Not only that, he couldn't even detect a trace of Hongjun's legacy.
Luo Hou was in disbelief upon witnessing this scene.
After a long while, Luo Hou suddenly raised his head, his voice as cold as if it were being scraped out from between his teeth.
"Heaven... Dao!!!"
