Chapter 2143 The Ring
"Because the 'Heavenly Evolution Temple' on the other side of Chaos is far more powerful than this one."
The bottle spirit gave the answer directly, and then explained in detail:
"The Tianyan Temple on the Taichu side is merely a place in the Immortal Realm that possesses a first-grade immortal artifact."
On the other hand, the forces of Chaos spread throughout the Chaos World, and they possess a supreme treasure of origin!
The bottle spirit's words directly confirmed one of Luo Hong's previous guesses:
There are also organizations similar to the Heavenly Evolution Temple on the other side of Chaos!
That's easy to understand. After all, no matter what the reason, whether it's the Chaos Demon Lord or the Primordial Immortal Lord, they are both the culprits who destroyed the world.
Any living being in either world who knows the truth will do everything in their power to stop it!
Since the Primordial Immortal Venerable on the Primordial side changes every era, the corresponding power will be weaker.
However, the Chaos Demon Lord on the other side of Chaos is already eternal. His oppressive aura has accumulated with each epoch, and the resistance he has gathered is far beyond what the Primordial side can compare to!
"That's the second Origin Treasure of Chaos?"
Luo Hong never expected that the second Origin Treasure of Chaos would be in the hands of the forces that were resisting the Chaos Demon Lord.
"That's right, that guy is called 'Demon Ring', and he has the supernatural power to amplify everything and divide infinitely."
Pingling immediately began to explain in detail to Luo Hong.
It turns out that this magic ring is naturally attracted to demon gods of the Dao Ancestor level.
Whenever a new Dao Ancestor-level Demon God is created, she will create a treasure ring that is exactly the same as herself and go to it.
Each time the Chaos Demon Lord recovers from a wisp of true spirit to the point where he can devour the world, it takes him a very long time.
During this period, a demon god of the Dao Ancestor level will definitely be born, so the Demon Ring will definitely be born!
"The Four Desires Furnace and the Ring of the Demon, so these are the two origin treasures of Chaos."
Luo Hong nodded slightly, feeling as if much of the fog before her eyes had been lifted.
"It seems that the magic ring is intentionally suppressing the Chaos Demon Lord. Could there be some kind of grudge between them?"
"Where did this grudge come from? Fellow Daoist Luo, you don't actually think that Venerable Demon would help those Demon Ancestors for free, do you?"
She was merely using those demon ancestors to quickly recover from the losses of the last era's end, thus ensuring her own existence.
As for those demon ancestors using her power to suppress the Chaos Demon Lord and keep him in a slumber, that's none of her business.
The bottle spirit immediately said with a hint of disdain.
Luo Hong understood; the Ring of Power had no bias whatsoever, it only cared about its own existence.
"If that's the case, then wouldn't the initiative in the many past epochs have always been in the hands of the Primordial Beginning?"
Luo Hong suddenly realized that the Chaos Demon Lord had indeed achieved true immortality with the Four Desires Furnace, but because his goal was too great, he ended up in a passive position.
It can be said that for every gain, there is a loss!
"Fellow Daoist Luo, don't be too happy. After all, when all those Demon Ancestors unite, their suppression of the Chaos Demon Lord is extremely limited."
Rather than calling it a seal, it's more accurate to say they merely appeased the Chaos Demon Lord.
He will wake up immediately if he is stimulated in any way!
Moreover, among the Demon Ancestors, there were a few madmen who wished to be devoured by the Chaos Demon Lord.
Although Pingling agreed with Luo Hong's words, she did not think it was an advantage.
Because the biggest source of stimulation is Luo Hong herself.
Luo Hong clearly understood this as well, and frowned before asking:
"I wonder to what extent Luo needs to go before he can awaken it? Also, is there any way to strengthen the seal?"
"As long as Fellow Daoist Luo refines more than nine medium-sized interfaces or three large interfaces, the Primordial Power he obtains will be sensed by the Chaos Demon Lord. At that time, he will surely awaken, devour the chaotic heavens, and start the Great War of the Era."
The bottle spirit immediately replied with great certainty.
After all, the Chaos Demon Lord has remained in power for several eras, so some of his actions have become predictable.
How could they be so sensitive!
Luo Hong was secretly alarmed.
It should be noted that when he first became the Primordial Avatar, he did have the idea of refining some realms that had no life or were already on the verge of collapse.
I was just afraid that in his state at the time, once he took the first step, there would be no turning back, so I held back.
In retrospect, he really did have a brush with death!
"As for methods to reinforce the seal, there are naturally ways, but Chaos itself cannot do it alone."
Because as long as the Chaos Demon Lord's true spirit remains intact, any Chaos Demon God who cultivates the Three Laws will establish a connection with him the moment they come into contact with the Great Dao.
And the inevitable result was that it ruthlessly devoured them!
"So, it's impossible for three Demon Ancestors to appear in the Chaos realm?!"
Luo Hong immediately grasped the key point and couldn't help but interrupt the bottle spirit to ask.
"That's right. Neither the Space Demon Ancestor, nor the Time Demon Ancestor, nor the Reincarnation Demon Ancestor could appear in the Chaos World, because their source has always been occupied by the Chaos Demon Lord."
Conversely, if Chaos were to obtain the three Demon Ancestors through certain means, along with the Demon Ring, it would undoubtedly greatly strengthen the seal on the Chaos Demon Lord.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, judging from your expression, you must already know who Chaos's target is, right?"
Pingling chuckled softly, seemingly quite satisfied with Luo Hong's performance.
"Thank you for your explanation, senior. I now understand the whole story!"
Without a doubt, the Time Demon Ancestor that Chaos has its eye on is none other than Gu Huo Jin!
According to the bottle spirit, Luo Hong had even guessed the conditions offered by Chaos.
First of all, there must be a place for the Time Demon Ancestor.
Secondly, there must be a promise of an origin treasure.
But it's obvious that Chaos will never tell Gu Huojin that there's no need to fight for the Time Demon Ancestor's position, and that Origin Treasure is something that every one of their Demon Ancestors already possesses.
Good heavens, this is practically free stuff!
"Now that you understand, is there anything I can do to help?"
Although the two did not say it explicitly, Han Li had already vaguely guessed who they were talking about.
And coincidentally, the past or present is also a tribulation he has to go through on his path to immortality, so he wants to know more and participate in it.
Upon hearing this, Luo Hong looked at Han Li, a hint of hesitation appearing in her eyes.
Based on the situation in the original timeline, it can be known that Gu Huojin, in order to transcend, has now completely sided with the Chaos. If it weren't for the intervention of Han Li and the Lord of Samsara, he would definitely have become the Time Demon Ancestor.
From the perspective of the primordial order, however, this action by either the ancients or the present was a good thing, but at a cost.
Luo Hong was unwilling to accept it.
Therefore, he didn't know how to reply to Han Li for a moment.
"Junior brother, don't rush. I need to think this over carefully."
"I see you've reached the point where you must sever your 'good corpse' (spiritual body). Take this jade slip; it contains my insights on this process."
"Thank you, senior brother. I will go and study it now."
Han Li accepted the jade slip, assessed the atmosphere, and then proactively cupped his hands in greeting.
After saying that, he fled from the main hall without taking the Heavenly Bottle with him.
He wasn't worried about the gains or losses of the Heavenly Bottle, since the bottle spirit had just proposed to acknowledge him as its master.
"Hehe, Han is still as clever as ever. Knowing too much about the Primordial Beginning and Chaos won't do him any good. It's better that he's gone."
After chuckling softly, the bottle spirit turned the Heavenly Bottle around and spoke again:
"I wonder what Fellow Daoist Luo's plans are next? Are you going to let the ancient or the present fall into chaos?"
"The past or the present can turn towards chaos, but never at the cost of the immortal realm!"
Luo Hong has a very clear understanding of this.
While the Chaos Gods appear to be doing their utmost to seal the Chaos Demon Lord, their actions are undoubtedly also eroding the Primordial Chaos!
In other words, it's not that they don't covet the Primordial World, but rather that instead of swallowing it whole like the Chaos Demon Lord, they adopt a gradual, step-by-step approach.
"Even if it were a ready-made Demon Ancestor, with the blessing of a Demon Ring, I don't believe it could withstand the devouring of the Chaos Demon Lord."
It is highly likely that these three Demon Ancestors are the very flames that ignited their own power, and that one day they will be extinguished!
Imagine if the Chaos Gods kept tempting the three Dao Ancestors from the Primordial World to fill the positions and pass on the flame, and each time it would consume a large interface.
After countless ages, the balance between chaos and the beginning will inevitably be broken by them.
The ultimate victor will not be the Chaos Demon Lord, nor will it be Luo Hong, the Primordial Immortal Venerable, but rather all the Chaos Demon Gods!
Therefore, the ideal situation for Luo Hong is to let Gu or Jin buy time, but without causing too much damage to the Immortal Realm.
And from then on, the three Dao Ancestors had to be under his watchful eye in order to thwart the Chaos Demon God's plans!
Of course, all of this is predicated on the fact that Chaos is missing a Time Demon Ancestor.
If two or more are missing, then choosing to let it go would be a losing proposition.
"Although the method you mentioned is a bit clumsy, it does have the potential to break the balance."
Ping Ling wasn't too concerned upon hearing this, because this method spanned too long a period of time and involved the uncontrollable factor of the Primordial Immortal Venerable.
If the Primordial Immortal Venerable initiates a great war, whether intentionally or unintentionally, all their previous efforts will be in vain!
"By the way, senior, you mentioned earlier that there are demon ancestors in the chaos who could be devoured. What actions do they usually take?"
Luo Hong suddenly remembered that there was another force that could not be ignored in the chaos.
"Their influence in the Chaos is small, and they can't cause much trouble, but they can't be completely ignored, because they will do everything they can to find the lost Origin Treasures, and they might even come to the Primordial World for it."
And once they gain anything, they will inevitably offer it as a sacrifice to the Chaos Demon Lord.
Although the chances of these demons finding the Origin Treasures are extremely slim, they possess the power to decide the overall situation, so when the Bottle Spirit talks about them, his tone becomes serious.
"I can't control the Chaos side for now, but I will cut off all their claws that have reached into the Primordial World in the future!"
Luo Hong also felt that these people had to be guarded against, otherwise it would be ridiculous if they really caused something big!
"Please describe the characteristics of the three Origin Treasures, including the Taiyi Sword, in detail, senior."
"Of course, it is the Taiyi Sword."
Pingling immediately began to tell her story in a very detailed way.
First is the Taiyi Sword, a staunch supporter of the Primordial Era. Although it originally concealed its true nature, it still appeared to be a divine weapon.
However, due to the numerous battles it participated in, the sword's blade has accumulated many battle scars, making it look somewhat broken and extremely inconspicuous.
Its greatest supernatural power is that it can transform all power into Taiyi sword energy, with no upper limit!
Therefore, even if a Qi Refining stage cultivator obtains the Taiyi Sword, he can continuously infuse it with power and eventually achieve the power to kill a Nascent Soul stage cultivator with a single strike!
Upon learning this, Luo Hong immediately knew how to find the sword.
With such formidable killing power, its master will inevitably be tempted to fight enemies of higher levels; just keep an eye out for news in this regard.
If it doesn't have a new owner yet, then there's really nothing that can be done.
Next is the Infinity Bracelet. This Origin Treasure is a golden bracelet with countless tiny, mysterious patterns on it. It doesn't look particularly unremarkable, but it's not much better.
This treasure's supernatural power is a kind of sealing ability. It can seal away living beings and treasures indefinitely, extracting their supernatural powers or characteristics and bestowing them upon its master.
For example, after sealing the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, which possesses the power of creation, its master can also possess the power of creation, turning trees into forests and molding clay into people!
It can be said that as long as its owner can withstand the surge in power, this treasure can bring infinite possibilities, hence its name.
Obviously, given the characteristics of the Infinite Bracelet, finding its owner would be extremely difficult, since the magical powers it brings can be ever-changing.
The only thing Luo Hong could do was to make people pay attention to those who had particularly many tricks up their sleeves.
The last Origin Treasure is extremely special.
It should be noted that, including the Palm Heaven Bottle, the other five Origin Treasures all participated in the Epoch War to varying degrees.
But this last item has no record of ever participating in a battle!
Its name is Dream Mist, but it is not a real fog. Instead, it generally appears as fog, and its color, density, and size are not fixed.
The greatest power of this treasure is that it can create a dream world that cannot be entered by ordinary means.
These worlds leave no trace in the normal world, so they are impossible to find.
However, in return, anyone who takes actions near these dream worlds that meet the entry requirements will be drawn into them.
Only by experiencing enough dream worlds and obtaining enough dream gems can one become the owner of this treasure.
Although there were others who became masters of the Dream Mist in the past, as long as they hid in the countless Dream Worlds, even the Primordial Immortal Venerable and the Chaos Demon Venerable could not force them out.
"In other words, the only things we can hope to find are the Taiyi Sword and the Infinite Bracelet."
After pondering for a moment, Luo Hong decided to focus his search on these two Origin Treasures in the future. He then cupped his hands towards the Heavenly Bottle and said:
"Thank you for your help, senior. Please also pass on a message to Junior Brother Han, asking him to keep an eye on Jin Tong's situation."
When he prepares to return to the position of Dao Ancestor, he must send me a message.
"No problem, then Fellow Daoist Luo, I'm off."
The bottle spirit was still a little afraid of being forcibly conscripted by Luo Hong, so after observing Luo Hong's expression, it turned into a green light and left.
"Finding the Origin Treasure is not something that can be done overnight. The most urgent task is to find out how many Three Demon Ancestors there are on the Chaos side."
Only a Chaos God would know such information, and there must be a place where a Chaos God exists right now.”
As Luo Hong muttered to herself, she looked up at the ceiling of the main hall, her gaze seemingly able to penetrate everything!
