Fortunately, Yaoyao’s abilities allowed them to slip in without detection.
Only when Yaoyao activated the array did the surrounding guards look over in shock. They did not understand why it had suddenly activated.
Their Law Domain expert was obviously not here!
The entire Tianji Region fell into chaos. The array activated, enveloping the two figures in dazzling light as space began to warp.
As he watched the space around them slowly distort, Zhou Yuan faintly sensed a Law Domain presence swiftly rushing towards them. That was likely a Tianji Region Law Domain expert.
However, the Law Domain expert was clearly not going to make it in time.
Light flooded towards him, filling his eyeballs.
Zhou Yuan grinned.
Wanzu Heaven...you little bastard Tuntun, your little grandpa is here!
Chapter 1228 Wanshou Heaven
Even among the five heavens, Wanshou Heaven was rather unique. If the other heavens were said to be led by humans, Wanshou Heaven’s true rulers were the numerous Genesis Beast clans.
It was essentially a paradise for Genesis Beasts, the same Genesis Beasts that were both an extremely powerful faction and race in the Tianyuan World.
Wanshou Heaven’s current overall strength would place them third among the five heavens. Long ago, when the Genesis Beast clans were at their heyday, Wanshou Heaven was a dominant second among the five heavens. Back then, Hunyuan Heaven was still in its growing phase, and the strongest was Qiankun Heaven. The second ranked Wanshou Heaven could easily subdue the rising Hunyuan Heaven.
Despite their drop in rank, Wanshou Heaven was still considered a first tier heaven, and was far stronger than the two bottom rankers, Wuxing Heaven and Cangxuan Heaven.
Most importantly, the Genesis Beast race had a huge advantage in terms of lifespan, making their foundations exceptionally terrifying. Many of the great clans had several old monsters. Although these existences had not reached the Saint level and were practically at death’s door, their accumulated power could only be described as frightening. If unleashed, it would allow them to put up a fight against Saint experts.
Of course, their lives would most likely come to an end after.
Despite the fatal drawback, it was enough proof of the Genesis Beasts’ foundations. This was also one of the reasons why they could occupy an entire heaven without much objection.
In Wanzu Heaven, there were so many kinds of Genesis Beasts that it was practically impossible to count.
Of course, the true Genesis Beast clans possessed intelligence and tradition. They did not acknowledge the less intelligent brutes as fellow Genesis Beasts, and would not hesitate to hunt them for the sake of food and resources.
After countless years of natural selection, seven great clans solidified their positions as the rulers of Wanshou Heaven.
The Mystic Dragon Clan, the Spirit Phoenix Clan, the Golden Monkey Clan, the Mountain Moving Ape Clan, the Roaring Heavenly Tiger Clan, the Ancient Whale Clan and the Earth-shaking Divine Tiger Clan.
Among these seven great clans, the Mystic Dragon Clan and the Spirit Phoenix Clan were clearly a cut above the rest. Of course, this did not mean that the other five were pushovers. The others were always closely eyeing the Mystic Dragon Clan’s and Spirit Phoenix Clan’s positions, and there was definitely no lack of clashes over the years.
It was very normal. After all, the Hunyuan Heaven’s nine regions weren’t a unified force either, and only god knew how many struggles, secret or open, were ongoing between them.
Regardless, the seven clans were undoubtedly the current overlords of Wanshou Heaven.
...
“So, this is Wanshou Heaven.” Zhou Yuan peered at the land from a mountain top. Compared to Hunyuan Heaven, Wanshou Heaven had certain barbaric crudeness to it.
Mountains rose from the ground, towering over the land like giants. Their majesty was slightly greater than even Hunyuan Heaven’s mountains.
Endless mountain ranges and thick ancient forests that could cover the sky. The ancient trees were an exceptional sight to behold, and at times, the shade of a single tree could even encompass an entire mountain range.
Besides the mountains and forests, there were also numerous lakes and seas.
The entire place was filled with the sounds of the wild. From time to time, one would see the mountains seem to heave as an enormous beastly silhouette rose from the ground, causing the land to tremble.
Countless flying creatures soared in the skies, the occasional savagery starting a rain of blood.
Amidst the violence, a shadow would suddenly swoop down from above, wings blotting out the sun as a giant mouth opened, devouring both sides such that nothing remained.
This entire world seemed to bathe in a strange chaos.
In a world like this, even Zhou Yuan could not help but wet his lips. Wanshou Heaven clearly worshipped strength. It was a world where the strong preyed on the weak.
Although other heavens were similar, they would have rules to at least maintain some order. The only law here, however, was the law of the jungle.
Without power, it would be very difficult to survive in Wanshou Heaven.
Zhou Yuan watched for a few more moments before suddenly turning towards Yaoyao and asking, “By the way, what’s Tuntun’s origin?”
Yaoyao continued to observe the new world around them with some interest as she casually replied, “Tuntun is one of the original sacred beasts, and does not belong to any race or clan. It is the only one of its kind, and a new one will only be born into the world when it dies. Of course, it takes an extremely long time for one to be born again, and conditions required are also exceedingly stringent.
“On another note, its true name is the Ancestor Taotie and it has the ability of devouring.”
“Ancestor Taotie?” Zhou Yuan was taken aback. “I met someone in Hunyuan Heaven who has the Taotie blessing. His materialized blessing looked quite similar to Tuntun.”
“Oh? Taotie Blessing?” Yaoyao raised her eyebrows in surprise. “His blessing is indeed from the Ancestor Taotie. Those with the Taotie Blessing will gain some devouring power. If he is capable, he will become someone noteworthy in the future.”
Zhou Yuan clicked his tongue in admiration. To think that Zhao Mushen’s blessing originated from Tuntun.
Soon after, his expression turned a little strange. If I bring Tuntun to meet Zhao Mushen, I wonder what look he will have?
Yaoyao seemed to read Zhou Yuan’s thoughts and said, “If a person with the Taotie Blessing meets Tuntun, a feeling of reverence will rise from his blood. Hmm, it will feel as if you suddenly find your ancestor standing before you…
“Moreover, his devouring power will have zero effect on Tuntun. If it wants to, it can even temporarily remove the devouring power.”
Zhou Yuan could not help but chuckle. That scene would really be amusing. In other words, Tuntun was basically Zhao Mushen’s nemesis.
I wonder if he will want to see his ancestor appear before him?
“Tuntun is at the Golden Monkey Clan?” Yaoyao’s words interrupted Zhou Yuan’s thoughts.
Zhou Yuan nodded and retrieved a scroll. A bright glow emerged as he unfurled it, revealing a large map. Light swam on the map, gradually converging into dots at certain locations.
“We’re currently in the northwest sector and are actually quite close to the Golden Monkey Clan. If we rush, we should be able to arrive at their territory in about ten days.”
“Let’s get going then.” Yaoyao wasted no time. With a wave of her sleeve, Genesis Qi surged over and wrapped around the two of them. The space in front of them shattered and they shot in.
Ten days later.
The Golden Monkey Clan territory border.
Zhou Yuan’s and Yaoyao’s figures appeared.
After ten days of travel, Zhou Yuan once again witnessed the violence and chaos in Wanshou Heaven. He had already lost count of how many fights he had seen on th
e way here.
“Let’s wait here for a while. I’ve already notified Jin Linger,” said Zhou Yuan.
He had already shattered the bone-shaped jade Jin Linger had passed to him in Guyuan Heaven when they were nearby. As such, Jin Linger should already be aware of their arrival.
Yaoyao naturally had no objections.
The two made themselves comfortable. A day later.
The sound of rushing wind was heard. Zhou Yuan raised his gaze and saw several streaks of light shooting towards them.
“Finally here?” Zhou Yuan smiled.
However, Yaoayo, whose eyes were still lightly shut, nonchalantly said, “They’re here, but they aren’t friendly.”
Zhou Yuan’s brows knitted together.
The golden lights arrived, appearing in the sky above them.
Zhou Yuan looked over and found that the leader was not Jin Linger.
It was still an exceptionally sexy young lady with dainty features. Her eyes were currently filled with disdain as she looked down at Zhou Yuan from above.
After observing him for a few breaths, she slowly said, “You’re Zhou Yuan?
“Please return to where you came from. Our Golden Monkey Clan does not welcome you.”
Zhou Yuan indifferently gazed at her and said, “Who are you? Where is Jin Linger?”
His attitude made the girl’s brows furrow slightly in anger, likely because she usually had her way. Iciness flashed in her eyes as she said, “I said that the Golden Monkey Clan does not welcome you. If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for showing no courtesy!”
Zhou Yuan’s expression remained impassive. A split second later, he suddenly stepped forward.
Rumble!
Astonishing Genesis Qi unfurled like a storm, causing the entire world to faintly tremble around them. An alarming pressure surged forth like the tide.
Zhou Yuan’s ice-cold voice rang out, “Showing no courtesy? Who do you think you are?”
A giant scaly Genesis Qi hand took shape and mercilessly slapped towards the girl.
Chapter 1229 Don’t Panic
Rumble!
The giant Genesis Qi hand viciously swiped through the air. Space warped, faint cracks appearing around the target even before the attack landed.
The ground below rapidly crumbled.
The dainty beauty’s expression changed, shocked at Zhou Yuan’s ruthlessness. Did he not know that this was their Golden Monkey Clan’s territory?
To think that he actually dared to attack her!
Such arrogance!
“Impudence!” The beauty’s face turned white with rage as she sternly shouted, “Capture him!”
The four imposing figures behind her moved without hesitation at her command. They were likely Golden Monkey Clan experts.
All four were Nascent Source experts. However, there was currently no trace of arrogance on their faces. Instead, they wore grave expressions.
They could sense how powerful Zhou Yuan’s attack was.
His Genesis Qi foundation was terrifying!
Roar!
Roars erupted from the four as their bodies began to swell, growing into four giant hundred-feet-tall golden beasts. They looked like some kind of mix between a lion and a tiger and gave off savage auras. Long golden tails whipped through the air, shattering even space itself.
These four Golden Monkey Clan experts had immediately brought out their true bodies. From this, one would see just how wary they were of Zhou Yuan.
They roared at the sky. Golden light poured from their mouths, flooding the area, space crumbling inch by inch wherever the golden torrent passed.
However, everything they did was useless. The giant Genesis Qi hand continued its descent and smashed apart the golden torrent. The four golden beasts wailed as their enormous bodies tumbled from the sky, flattening several mountains when they crashed into the ground.
The four Golden Monkey Clan experts were at best advanced Nascent Source experts. How could such strength possibly stop Zhou Yuan?
In the sky, the dainty girl’s expression turned exceedingly ugly. However, she was unafraid and angrily shouted, “Zhou Yuan, do you want to die? How dare you attack in my Golden Monkey Clan’s territory?!
“Do you think this is the Tianyuan Region?!”
She was in disbelief and never expected Zhou Yuan to be so arrogant. It did not matter how famous he was in Hunyuan Heaven, because he was now in Wanshou Heaven’s Golden Monkey Clan territory!
Wasn’t Zhou Yuan’s actions basically a slap in the face to the Golden Monkey Clan?
Moreover, why the hell was he so powerful?!
From the information they had, he should have recently advanced to the Nascent Source stage. Although he had directly ascended to the advanced Nascent Source stage, the four opponents he had faced earlier were no weaklings among the Golden Monkey Clan’s advanced Nascent Source experts.
Zhou Yuan coldly gazed at the girl. Of course he knew this was the Golden Monkey Clan’s territory, but so what? He wasn’t alone, there was a really big shot at his side!
That’s right, it was due to Yaoyao’s existence that he dared to use such a blatant display of force. Without her presence, he would have to engage in a more roundabout tactic against the Golden Monkey Clan.
But there was obviously no need for such a tactic.
This was the power of connections!
Zhou Yuan said, “Get Jin Linger here, I have no interest in wasting my time with you.”
He frowned slightly, somewhat confused as to why this girl was so hostile towards him. He did not recall ever offending the Golden Monkey Clan, and could even be said to be on pretty good terms with Jin Linger.
In addition, he had a favorable impression of the Golden Monkey Clan due to Tuntun.
However, the recent turn of events were really pushing his buttons.
The sexy and dainty girl was clearly even more enraged by his attitude. However, she did not dare to provoke him again due to the ferocity he had just displayed.
Flashes of gold suddenly appeared in the horizon and swiftly flew towards them.
Powerful Genesis Qi surged around each golden flash as an ominous pressure spread.
“The clan’s law enforcement squad!” The girl was overjoyed. She sneered at Zhou Yuan and said, “I said that if you think you can do as you please you’ve come to the wrong place!”
Zhou Yuan indifferently gazed at the approaching golden lights.
He did not reply the stupid girl because he had already sensed Jin Linger’s Genesis Qi undulations.
Swoosh!
After a dozen breaths, the golden lights landed from the air.
They were led by Jin Linger.
Jin Linger quickly took in the mess. Her face immediately turned white with rage as she looked towards Jin Ya and thundered, “Jin Ya! Zhou Yuan was invited by Little Ancestor. How dare you come here to obstruct him! Do you think you can do whatever you want because your grandfather is the clan’s first elder?!”
She had received Zhou Yuan’s signal earlier and immediately informed the clan elders. After all, although Zhou Yuan was a Nascent Source expert, his identity was very special.
As a Tianyuan Region grand elder, he was basically equal in status to the key clan elders. In addition, he was invited over by Little Ancestor, making him an important guest of their Golden Monkey Clan.
Jin Linger never imagined that Jin Ya would dare to secretly bring others to obstruct him upon hearing the news.
Jin Ya coldly snorted, ignoring Jin Linger. Instead, she berated the clan law enforcement squad, “This person has already broken the rules by daring to attack our clan members. Quickly take him in!”
However, the law enforcement squad did not move. An imposing, tall and muscular middle-aged man with claw scars on his face indifferently said, “Miss Jin Ya, the elders have ordered us to invite grand elder Zhou Yuan in.
“On another note, you’ve flouted the rules by taking action against an important guest a
nd will receive punishment later.”
Jin Ya nearly lost herself to anger. “Very good Jin Gui. My big brother is the law enforcement squad captain. Let’s see how you’ll explain this to him!
“Moreover, my big brother is the Golden Monkey Clan’s strongest Nascent Source expert, making him the best partner for Little Ancestor. Why are we finding an outsider? Which part of him can possibly compare to big brother?”
She glared venomously at Zhou Yuan before turning around to leave in a huff.
The atmosphere finally softened somewhat after her departure.
Jin Linger descended from the air and apologetically looked at Zhou Yuan. “I’m really sorry. I did not expect something like this to happen and I hope you will not take it to heart. Jin Ya has been spoiled too much and she does not represent our Golden Monkey Clan.”
Zhou Yuan unhurriedly said, “I’m an old friend of your Little Ancestor, who used to follow me in the past. I’ve come this time to take it away. If you guys really do not welcome me, you only need to inform it of my arrival so we can quickly be on our way.”
Jin Linger was stunned as she said in disbelief, “Little Ancestor used to follow you?”
Although she could tell from Little Ancestor and Zhou Yuan were very close, Jin Linger could not comprehend why an esteemed sacred beast would follow someone like Zhou Yuan. Let alone his past self, even his current Nascent Source cultivation was essentially not even worth mentioning to a sacred beast. After all, even an ordinary Saint expert would not dare to challenge a matured sacred beast.
Zhou Yuan and Little Ancestor were existances that belonged to two completely different worlds. Even if Little Ancestor was still young back then, the pride of a sacred beast would not allow it to follow anyone.
Zhou Yuan did not explain because this matter involved Yaoyao. From her languid appearance, she obviously did not care about the Golden Monkey Clan.
Jin Linger felt that Zhou Yuan was probably just bragging and did not take his claims too seriously. She guessed that he might still be angry because of Jin Ya’s earlier transgressions and tried to appease him. “You’re definitely the more mature one, so please don’t be too angry at her.”
