CHAPTER 1706: CHAPTER 1706: DADDY

"But where should we go to find Li Huahun?"

The Grandmaster of Heaven said helplessly, "The Hongmeng universe is so vast. It’s almost impossible to find Li Huahun without special means."

Hongjun and the Twelve Ancestors of Wu returned to Qin Jun. At this moment, the Twelve Ancestors of Wu were full of excitement; the Twelve Heavenly Fiends Formation had boosted their confidence immensely.

Taiyi Everlasting had been subdued by them so easily. Could it be that they now possess the power to challenge the divine spirits of Hongmeng?

Thinking of this, they became even more excited, but dared not show it in front of Qin Jun.

"You should be able to find him."

Qin Jun looked at Ren Woxiao and asked, recalling Li Huahun had mentioned some special connection with Ren Woxiao.

Upon hearing this, Ren Woxiao nodded and said, "He is at the Spirit Suppressing Stele of Western Primordial."

Spirit Suppressing Stele!

Qin Jun squinted, wondering if Taiyi Everlasting had already obtained the Origin Essence?

And where is Taiyi Everlasting’s Origin Essence?

Earlier, the battle was so swift, he forgot about this point.

"Thank you for your assistance. When you come to the Western Primordial universe, I will certainly treat you with the highest honors in the future."

Li Fan approached Qin Jun, clasping his fists with a solemn expression.

Qin Jun smiled and nodded, speaking with depth, "Cultivate well, for you are a son of the Hongmeng universe. This should be your weapon, not your cause of disaster."

All sons of Hongmeng have the protection of the Primordial Emperor’s qi movement, akin to the descendants or disciples of the Primordial Emperor; Qin Jun naturally has favorable feelings towards them.

Li Fan said gravely, "Next time, I will definitely be stronger."

The matter of Taiyi Everlasting had also taken quite a toll on him, making him deeply realize his own weakness.

Even Taiyi Everlasting couldn’t withstand a punch from the Pangu Giant God; what about him?

"Hmm, let’s go now directly to the Spirit Suppressing Stele."

Qin Jun turned to Ren Woxiao and spoke, meanwhile, the Extreme Emperor and Zun Mingyun in the distance had quietly left, which Qin Jun did not prevent.

It seemed the Extreme Emperor’s opportunity came from Zun Mingyun, and no matter what Zun Mingyun’s purpose was, Qin Jun believed the Extreme Emperor could escape.

If the Extreme Emperor had dull wits, how could he survive until today?

After all, the Extreme Emperor was notorious for being a battle maniac, enemies everywhere he went.

The group swiftly left.

Li Fan glanced back at the site where the battle between the Twelve Ancestors of Wu and Taiyi Everlasting took place; the Primordial Qi and Chaos Qi still floated there, covering trillions of miles, like the scene after a tornado burst.

Faintly, Li Fan could still feel the lingering oppressive aura of the Pangu Giant God.

"Is this the legendary Pangu of creation?"

Li Fan muttered to himself, complexity brimming in his eyes.

...

In the Hongmeng starry sky, the Extreme Emperor and Zun Mingyun dashed side by side.

Their faces were both grim; the Extreme Emperor was struck by the Twelve Heavenly Fiends Formation, while Zun Mingyun was thwarted in seizing a son of Hongmeng, resulting in foul moods.

Uncertain of how much time had passed.

Zun Mingyun spoke, "You must continue to grow stronger, stronger until you surpass Taiyi Everlasting."

"Hmm," replied the Extreme Emperor.

Their atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

Previously, they pledged to capture Li Fan and trample Taiyi Everlasting, only to end up fleeing miserably, feelings only known to them.

Meanwhile, news of Taiyi Everlasting’s fall continued to spread wildly, even sparking a frenzy thereafter.

That is, the gathering of beings challenging the top ranks of the Becoming a God list!

As long as those powerful figures fell, beings behind could rise in the rankings even if unable to replace their positions.

Of course, that’s another story.

...

In a certain great world, on the edge of the boundless sea, Laozi slowly opened his eyes and rose.

"It seems something is approaching."

Laozi frowned, gazing at the edge of the horizon, talking to himself.

"Quick! Quick escape! Quick escape!"

Just then, a voice rang in his ear, filled with boundless panic, making him frown deeply, immediately turning to fly out of this great world.

However, he had not flown for long when a streak of red light appeared behind him, chasing relentlessly.

Instantly, Laozi felt a chill of horror, turning to look, the red light rapidly closing in.

"What is this?"

Laozi was terrified, and before he could react, the red light suddenly accelerated, crashing into his body.

Immediately following, Laozi stopped abruptly, eyes shut, as two gas masses seemed to quarrel within him.

"Why? Why won’t you tolerate me!"

The previous voice echoed inside Laozi, filled with despair.

Soon, the voice ceased, and Laozi’s aura gradually stabilized.

Laozi slowly opened his eyes, with eyes reddened and face slightly ferocious, sleeves billowing, his aura growing stronger.

"This feeling... so powerful..."

Laozi twisted his neck, muttering to himself, clearly in a state unlike before.

"Origin Essence... Hongmeng’s son..."

"The mission you bestow upon me is truly immense."

...

Western Primordial, Spirit Suppressing Stele.

Qin Jun and others rushed to arrive, and Taiyi Everlasting’s split body was about to act but was swiftly dealt with by Hongjun, dissipating soul and spirit.

They arrived atop the Spirit Suppressing Stele, and at a glance, saw Ling Emperor, Li Huahun, and Jiugong Supreme lying on the ground.

"It’s the Heavenly Emperor!"

Ling Emperor called out joyfully, while Jiugong Supreme merely snorted coldly, turning his head away.

Ren Woxiao walked to Li Huahun, waved to release his seal, then snorted, "You brat, you’ve disgraced me, Ren Woxiao."

Li Huahun slowly stood, twisting his wrists, and said, "It’s none of your damn business."

Ren Woxiao’s smile froze instantly, prompting laughter from the Twelve Ancestors of Wu, the Grandmaster of Heaven, and Cheng Yaojin, even Hongjun couldn’t help but show a hint of a smile.

"Release them too."

Qin Jun ordered, finding Ren Woxiao purposefully ignoring Ling Emperor and Jiugong Supreme, quite petty.

Hongjun immediately waved, relieving Ling Emperor and Jiugong Supreme with a sense of relief.

"How to search for the Origin Essence next?"

Di Jiang curiously asked, remembering Emperor Shiwei mentioning the Origin Essence was hidden here.

Qin Jun smiled slightly, immediately standing.

The Spirit Suppressing Stele bore his soul imprint; he only needed to inject his magic power, allowing the Spirit Suppressing Stele to recognize him anew.

BOOM—

Just then, a colossal blue hand reached for them, taller than the Spirit Suppressing Stele, its surface intricate like rivers and mountains, flowing with immense magic power.

Hongjun waved his dust to envelop it, preventing further advance.

"Who are you! Show yourself!"

Gonggong roared, causing the surrounding Primordial Qi to surge wildly.

Qin Jun turned to look, narrowing his eyes, focusing his gaze through the rolling Primordial cloud sea on a figure hundreds of billions of miles away.

The man was clad in a white robe, with a golden chair embroidered on his back, a cold expression, white hair slicked to his head, with eyes lacking pupils, only a pitch-black void, his complexion extraordinarily pale, chillingly gazing at Qin Jun and others.

"Courting death!"

Fire God shouted, thrusting his hands forward.

Rolling flames transformed into a fire wall, sweeping forth and clearing the Primordial cloud sea, with an unstoppable force crashing toward the white-robed man.

"Perish."

The white-robed man softly uttered a word, instantly dispersing the fire wall that seemed to divide the Hongmeng starry sky in two.
