But actually, they did not have any choice. Even the Taoist Jun Tian and the other eight experts of Origin could not practice the Air of Chaos unless they possessed Magic Weapons just like the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, which could turn the Air of Chaos into the Primordial Spiritual Air. Otherwise, they could hardly survive in the Chaos leaving the World of Five Elements.
Every Cultivator needed Spiritual Air for cultivation. The Air of Chaos was a special Spiritual Air, and only the Rakshasa could use it. Once the Taoist Jun Tian and other people left the World of Five Elements, they would lose alimentative Spiritual Air. They would die if they could not find a place to supplement supernatural power before running out of it.
It was really dangerous to traverse the Chaos. But the supernatural power of the Realm of Origin was so strong that they would never would not run out of it, even in hundreds of thousands of years if they did not engage in frequent battles. However, it was only the best situation. In the Chaos, there was lots of danger. At any moment, the Omnious Beast of the Chaos, a chaotic storm, and even the crack of the space might occur. Once they met them, their supernatural powers would be lost, and the end of their powers would come.
Abandon the World of Five Elements? It was obvious that the Taoist Jun Tian and others would never do it unless there were no other choices. How could they abandon the place where they were born and raised? The beast tide of the Chaos this time was really scary, but they still had hope. They might still win when the Way of Heaven controlled the partial power of these Omnious Beasts, especially those at the Origin.
“Hoo…Hoo…” A burst of the roaring voices of beasts echoed in the Chaos. When they all showed up, all Cultivators of the World of Five Elements were terrified. With a closer look, there were more than 20,000 Omnious Beasts, 23 at the Origin, six at the Middle Stage, one at the Late Stage, and the rest were all at the Early Stage of Origin. It was really a strong lineup.
With the roaring of the Rare Beast of Chaos, a killing air formed in the Chaos near the World of Five Elements. When it reached a certain extent, all Ominous Beasts took actions as the howl of the leading one at the Late Stage of Origin, which was a earthshaking powerful army heading to the World of Five Elements.
Facing Ominous Beasts, the Taoist Jun Tian and others did not confront them head-on. They would definitely die if they had had direct confrontation with those beasts. The Taoist Jun Tian said calmly, “Retreat!” In the World of Five Elements, the Taoist Jun Tian had authority. In this critical moment of the World of Five Elements, it was natural that someone stood out as the leader.
Hearing that, everyone was confused, but they still followed his order and began to withdraw. As for the seven people of the Taoist Yan Xuan who were also at the Realm of Origin, they had naturally known what the Taoist Jun Tian’s plan was and would never reject it. They withdrew, together with Taoist Jun Tian, up to the border between the World of Five Elements and the Chaos. At that time, the Taoist Jun Tian issued another order, “Stop!”
Everyone stopped with sombre looks on their faces, since they had witnessed the coming beast tide of the Chaos. At this moment, a mighty force came between the Heaven and the Earth. In fact, to be precise, there were five. Here came the Way of Heaven of the World of Five Regions. Many weird powers began to criss-cross in the border, like a weird special tactical formation.
When Ominous Beasts were about to rush to this weird area, something magical took place. All beasts slowed down, as if they were stuck in the mud. Seeing it, the eight persons of the Taoist Jun Tian were very happy. They knew that it was the Way of Heaven, which could strongly restrain the power of Ominous Beasts of the Chaos.
It was the right time to fight. The Taoist Jun Tian said immediately, “All people less than the Origin, listen to me: the Way of Heaven has already taken action to heavily restrain the power of these beasts. You should cooperate with each other to kill Ominous Beasts at your level. We, the Origin, will handle with those at the Realm of Origin.”
The arrangement of the Taoist Jun Tian was quite reasonable. As the saying goes, soldiers fight with soldiers while generals fight with generals. Even though Ominous Beasts at the Early Stage had been weakened by the Way of Heaven, they were still at the Realm of Origin with the human body of the Origin, which the Sage-to-be could not handle. But in this way, the five Taoists at the Early Stage of the Origin alone could be against many in the World of Five Elements.
Hearing it, all Cultivators of the World of Five Elements took action together. Facing so many Ominous Beasts, the most effective way was to join forces with each other. They had never encountered this size of beast tide. But in the past, there had been some Ominous Beasts attacking the World of Five Elements. Despite fear, they had tacit understanding and would not be in a mess.
The Taoist Jun Tian could not stand by since all Cultivators had taken actions. The Ominous Beast of the Chaos less than the Origin was easier to defeat. But no one knew what damage beasts at the Realm of Origin would cause after they entered the World of Five Elements. So they could only stand out to stop those beasts at the Origin.
There were the full 23 Ominous Beasts at the Origin. The eight of the Taoist Jun Tian could only work in cooperation with a due division of labour. The five Taoists at the Early Stage of the Origin took charge of the 16 Early-Stage beasts who had been partially weakened by the Way of Heaven. These five Taoists could fight against them with the help of the Primordial Five Elements Formation. Even they could not defeat those beasts, they could still stall for time.
The Taoist Jun Tian was going to fight the Ominous Beast at the Late Stage of Origin. Now this beast had been weakened and just been at the Middle Stage. The Taoist Jun Tian was enough to battle with him with the Magic Weapon. As for the Taoist Tong Hua and the Taoist Xun Yuan, they combated six beasts at the Middle Stage of Origin. A stunning war began to break out.
It looked like both sides were well-matched in strength. The side of the World of Five Elements had the help of the Way of Heaven while the Ominous Beast of the Chaos was superior in numbers. In this moment, the key was which side would gain a little advantage first, and then turn the advantage into a priority.
When they were engaged in the fierce battle, a person suddenly appeared in the empty World of Five Elements. Looking at the strong Power of Five Elements and Spiritual Roots of Five Elements everywhere in the World of Five Elements, he praised, “No wonder it’s the World of Five Elements. It doesn’t enjoy undeserved fame. All powers of the World of Five Regions meet here, forming this special place: it’s definitely a paradise for people who cultivate the Tao of Five Elements!”
This person was Minghe. He turned around and looked at the Chaos border of the World of Geng Metal in the World of Five Elements. He naturally knew about the shaking battle there. To be precise, this battle was his creation. Before he backed to the Out-of-Law Area, what he wanted was not merely taking back the beast nest found before. Leading a group of Ominous Beasts to attack the World of Five Elements had also been one of his purposes.
There was all medium dichiliocosm in the World of Five Elements. Among them, the Way of Heaven was relatively powerful. Not to mention that the World of Five Regions had already formed a natural Primordial Five Elements Formation. With the mingled Way of Heaven, its power had boomed. Just now, the Way of Heaven had together suppressed Ominous Beasts, and Minghe could reckon the power of the Way of Heaven in general.
The “Fate” in “The Half Fate” referred to the Fate Golden Immortal of the Origin, which was also the strength Realm of the Way of Heaven in Untainted Land and the Realm when Hongjun had combined Tao. Though there was also the Way of Heaven in the World of Five Elements, it was incomparable with that of Untainted Land, and each region might only have the power at the Late Stage. But when they banded together, they would possess the power of the Half Fate.
Reckoning the general power of the Way of Heaven in the World of Five Elements, Minghe was much at ease. He could still handle the Half Fate. But he had to come up with other plans if the Way of Heaven together could surpass the extreme of the Da Luo Golden Immortal of Origin. What’s more, it had taken him a lot of effort to invite so many “helpers”.
The combination of the Way of Heaven was powerful and even Minghe could not defeat it. But since it had diverted its attention to weaken Ominous Beasts, it could not display fully. Facing the incomplete Ways of Heaven of Five Regions, Minghe was confident. Otherwise, he would never rashly intrude into the World of Five Elements.
Not long after Minghe’s arrival, changes had taken place in the World of Five Elements. Five giant eyes suddenly appeared in the World of Five Elements. Those were eyes of the Way of Heaven. They had felt the intruder Minghe, and been here without prior consultation for frightening him.
The endless prestige of H eaven was like devil hell. However, such coercion had not worked on Minghe. Though it was also called the Way of Heaven, it was far cry from that in Untainted Land. Minghe had never feared it in Untainted Land, not to mention in the World of Five Regions. It would never be so easy to beat him into a retreat in the face of such coercion.
