<strong><b>Chapter 19: Hou Yi Faces Tribtion! Severing the Fate of the Immortal Dao! </b></strong>


    It was not surprising that the opponent faced tribtion; rather, it was surprising that the opponent was astonished. Although Donghuang Taiyi was counterattacked by the Dao fruit, he had refined it for a period of time and devoured arge number of tribtionws. Even if the six Dao fruits were shared with others from the Yao race Da Luo Golden Immortals, it would still be impossible for him to escape quickly. Stripping away the Dao fruit would take a considerable amount of time.


    Furthermore, because too many ces in the Primordial Realm needed tribtion now, even with the burden of the six Dao fruits, they were still driven out. It was clear that for a considerable time, this Golden Crow Quasi-Saint, the second Celestial Emperor of the Yao race, would definitely be entangled in the trifles of the tribtion.


    Chu Xuan had spent several decades refining Pangu’s blood in the Pangu Pce and had just emerged. At this moment, even if the Golden Crow Emperor wanted to dy further, the Heavenly Dao would definitely not allow it, which resulted in the current scene of their meeting.


    “Fortunately, we set strict rules that do not allow the tribtion bearer to interfere with the tribtion; otherwise, he would have seeded!” Chu Xuan smiled.


    The hidden Wu Ancestor Hou Tu found it somewhat amusing to see the Golden Crow Emperor undergoing tribtion. At that moment, Donghuang Taiyi, hidden in the tribtion clouds, was indeed in a rather miserable state.


    After several decades, the Dao injuries on Donghuang Taiyi were still far from being repaired. The Twelve Ancestors of the Wu who acted were all supreme beings; theirws prated his body and left eternal marks that would be difficult to erase in a short time. Even if a projection descended, it would still be affected and would not manifest fully.


    With such injuries, he constantly transformed into countless forms to undergo tribtion in the Primordial Realm, which silenced anyone who saw it. It was even more of a humiliation.


    Many strong beings in the Primordial Realm could see through the tribtion clouds; at the very least, any Da Luo Golden Immortal could do it. Because now the tribtion could only be imposed on those who broke through the Da Luo Golden Immortal stage. Once one reached the Da Luo Golden Immortal level, they would be free from the tribtion.


    Perhaps because Chu Xuan and Hou Tu’s gazes were too bold, Donghuang Taiyi, who was in the tribtion, sensed it and suddenly turned his eyes towards them. Then, an astonishing rage erupted in his eyes.


    This was because he saw Hou Tu, one of the main culprits who caused him to fall into such a predicament. In Donghuang Taiyi’s view, if it weren’t for the sudden interruption by the Twelve Ancestors of the Wu, even though the essence of the tribtion was powerful, he wouldn’t have been seriously injured; at most, he would have just failed to refine it.


    The reason for his current predicament was entirely due to the sneak attack by the Twelve Ancestors of the Wu. Therefore, he was even angrier.


    In the past, it was a battle of Great Dao, but now it was a mix of new grudges and old hatred. He could hardly wait to seize control of the tribtion to impose it on Hou Tu.


    <em><i>It was a pity that as the executor of the tribtion, he could not escape the tribtion, no matter how furious he was.</i></em>


    The authority of the tribtion had been limited by Chu Xuan and the other Heavenly Tribtion Dao Ancestors, which left him with no power, only obligation. In the end, he could only helplessly gaze at Hou Tu, then turn to continue preparing to impose tribtion on the existence that had broken through to Senior Witch below.


    As for Chu Xuan, he didn’t care at all.


    He was just a mere Taiyi Golden Immortal.


    Because he couldn’t target Hou Tu, he could only exert all his energy to stimte the tribtion and attempt to see if he could change something. But after trying for a long time, he ultimately couldn’t change anything.


    It was still as he sensed earlier; the strength of the tribtion was much weaker.


    “The Wu race has no primordial spirit, so the tribtion is slightly weaker! How can this be reasonable?” Donghuang Taiyi sensed the various messagesing from the tribtion and was even angrier.


    He didn’t understand why the Heavenly Dao would leave such a w.


    <em><i>After all, the Wu race was stronger than the immortal cultivators before reaching the Da Luo Golden Immortal stage. Wouldn’t this allow the Wu race to easily pass through the tribtion? </i></em>


    <em><i>The Heavenly Dao is unjust! </i></em>


    Donghuang Taiyi was filled with indignation.


    But he was powerless.


    He waspletely unaware that this was not due to the Heavenly Dao, but a backdoor deliberately left by Chu Xuan, providing a reason.


    “Wouldn’t this be too weak?”


    As a Wu Ancestor, Hou Tu could also clearly see that the tribtion enveloping Hou Yi was significantly weaker at this moment.


    She frowned slightly.


    Although she should be happy that her n members were facing lesser danger, if this led to a major mishap, it would not be good.


    However, Chu Xuan smiled upon hearing this and exined to the hidden Hou Tu.


    “The Wu race has no primordial spirit, so the tribtion we face should indeed be weaker! The three disasters and nine hardships, even the lightning tribtion, are more targeted at the subtle changes of the primordial spirit! The Heavenly Dao is fair; the Wu race has no primordial spirit, so why should they undergo tribtion like those who possess primordial spirits? If they have the ability, they should refine their bodies! Moreover, facing stronger tribtions has its advantages; wind disasters can temper the primordial spirit, and fire disasters and water disasters also have simr benefits for refining the primordial spirit! Our Wu race doesn’t envy this opportunity!” Chu Xuan spoke lightly, leaving Hou Tu speechless.


    He was certainly not speaking without basis; even if the Heavenly Tribtion Dao Ancestor modified the tribtion and opened a backdoor, a reason was still needed.


    Indeed, disaster tribtions were beneficial for the growth of immortals.


    But that benefit waspletely negligible for the Wu race because they were inherently a supreme race. No matter how much the tribtion was refined, it could neverpare to the countlessws innate to the Wu race.


    Furthermore, the establishment of the tribtion was to obstruct the Heavenly Court’s momentum; regardless, the momentum had already been severed. The Heavenly Court had umted infinite karma and the resentment of all the races would burst sooner orter.


    “Of course, now that the Heavenly Court has already lost a leg, the next step should indeed target the Immortal Dao. If I proceed with my next n and cooperate with the tribtion, I’m afraid we could really sever half of the Immortal Dao’s fate!”


    “Hongjun wants to open the Quasi-Saint Realm? Let’s see who has the superior skills!”


    A sense of ambition naturally arose within Chu Xuan, and a certain gleam flickered in his eyes.


    Beside him, Hou Tu watched Chu Xuan, who was clearly different from the rest of the Wu race, her beautiful eyes moved slightly, and she did not speak again.


    Before long, the distant tribtion was finallypleted.


    Donghuang Taiyi, who had been waiting anxiously, was filled with joy.


    He finally struck.


    He was determined to impose the tribtion without reservation.


    Unfortunately, the rules were too detailed; even with all his strength and limited power cooperating with his battle techniques, he could not threaten the Wu race.


    The Wu race was already powerful, not to mention the tribtion was so weak.


    In the void, a wind disaster that could turn space to dust blew through, yet it could not shake the true form of the Wu race.


    Water disasters and fire disasters surged from the Wu race but could not corrode or burn.


    It was easily crossed by the sturdy man carrying arge bow, who was none other than Hou Yi.


    As for the nine hardships of the tribtion, they could not shake the strong true form of the Wu race at all.


    The blood and Qi surged slightly, copsing space, and the fierce energy swept away the nine hardships of the tribtion.


    Donghuang Taiyi was beside himself with rage.


    It was not until the nine heavens’ lightning tribtion descended that Hou Yi became a bit more serious.


    He bore faint scorch marks on his body.


    But before Donghuang Taiyi could rejoice, Hou Yi almost immediately drew out therge bow on his back and shot out a series of astonishing divine arrows.


    It seemed as if he wanted to tear apart the tribtion clouds!


    “Not enough, not enough!”


    “Too weak, too weak!”


    Hou Yi, the newly promoted Senior Shaman, towered with a massive form, which possessed boundless divine power. He wielded arrows ofws that directly tore apart mountains and rivers and even genuinely shattered the tribtion clouds!


    This revealed the broken silhouette of a Golden Crow behind him. Donghuang Taiyi was stunned but quickly filled with rage.


    “How presumptuous!”


    Hou Yi was also momentarily stunned but quickly burst intoughter.


    “Turns out it’s you, little bird! I was wondering who would be so weak. Today, I shall aplish what the Ancestors failed to do! I will y you with my arrows!”


    Arrows ripped through mountains and rivers, tore the space around them into a tangled mess, and scattered the tribtion with the terrifying power of archery. Donghuang Taiyi darted around to evade them, enraged.


    It was no surprise he was forced to react this way; he was not present in his true form but through an avatar, simultaneously descending tribtion upon countless beings and thus limited in power. Most of his strength relied on the force of the tribtion itself, making it impossible to resist Hou Yi’s sharp edge at this moment.


    Atst, Taiyi missed and took seven or eight arrows that nearly shattered his avatar. He was furious!


    Above all, he could not bear the insult from Hou Yi.


    “A Quasi-Saint should not be disgraced! You deserve to die!”


    <strong><em><b><i>Boom!</i></b></em></strong>


    High above the Nine Heavens, within the Heavenly Court of the Yao race, a faintly glowing Golden Crow spread its wings in a sh.


    <strong><em><b><i>Boom!</i></b></em></strong>


    Half of the Heavenly Court was torn apart.


    Its cold gaze fell in Hou Yi’s direction. The aura of a Quasi-Saint descended, seeming intent on striking Hou Yi down with a single blow!


    The sudden action from a Quasi-Saint-level being sent tremors through countless entities across the Primordial Realm and caused many to cast their gazes toward the Heavenly Court.


    “The Donghuang Taiyi has taken action!”


    “Does he still have strength to spare?”


    “Hmm, that’s in the direction of Mount Buzhou—it’s Hou Tu’s Tribe!”


    Yet before Taiyi could truly make his move, a clear, angry shout suddenly rang out.


    “Impudent! Donghuang Taiyi, this is Wu territory!”


    A towering goddess stepped forward, shattering space itself. The boundless true form of the Wu Ancestor stood on thews of existence, her eyes cold, directly shing with the wing Donghuang Taiyi had extended.


    <strong><em><b><i>Boom!</i></b></em></strong>


    The might of a Quasi-Saint shattered and dispersed; Donghuang Taiyi’s face twisted as he finally retreated. His injuries had not yet healed, and with his power split into countless avatars to descend tribtion, he was in no position to overpower Hou Tu.


    Retreating further would only risk him losing more face.


    With Taiyi’s withdrawal, the various deities across the primordial realm paused for a moment before casting interested nces in the direction of Mount Buzhou, curious to see what had provoked this Quasi-Saint.


    Then, they saw it: a Senior Shaman who had just ovee the tribtion, still shouting defiantly.


    “You’re running away so soon? One day, I’ll make sure you fall to my arrow!”


    Many powerful figures were momentarily speechless and shook their heads.


    “As expected, the Wu race still carries that same arrogant nature.”


    With that, they each dispersed.


    Meanwhile, atop Mount Buzhou, two powerful figures thought for a moment, then began descending the mountain.
