46: Pangu's power

"As expected, this Pangu Force is truly formidable."

"Just a sliver of it allows me to crush experts of the same level!"

Xuan Qing's heart was not calm at this moment; he was also quite surprised by the overwhelming nature of his own strength.

After Xuan Qing was refined by Taiqing using a fragment of his Primordial Spirit combined with the blood from the Pangu Hall's Blood Pool...

...he actually awakened a terrifying power, one that felt as if Pangu were creating heaven and earth.

It possessed a crushing dominance over the Sentient beings of the Primordial Era; at the same level, anyone targeted by this power would be left utterly defenseless.

Because this power was awakened after Taiqing—one of Pangu's Primordial Spirits—refined a Clone using Pangu's blood...

...Xuan Qing named it Pangu Force.

Pangu Force was like a Bloodline suppression; as long as they were Sentient beings of the Primordial Era and at the same level, Pangu Force could suppress them.

This was the conclusion Xuan Qing had drawn while traveling toward the Eastern Continent.

When facing other creatures, he could know with just a thought whether Pangu Force would successfully suppress them.

However, if one were to truly compare them, the essence of Xuan Qing's Pangu Force was billions of times weaker than the real thing.

Although this was his first time using Pangu Force, Xuan Qing was very proficient with it.

This was because he had already simulated its use against other beings countless times in his mind.

"As expected, my intuition was correct; it can only be used twice within a short period."

"After use, it takes ten thousand years to recover."

"Furthermore, at the same level, it should only be able to suppress the opponent for three breaths of time!"

Xuan Qing hadn't stopped to wait for these nine Grand Unity Golden Immortals just to show off.

Rather, it was to test Pangu Force.

Now, he had completely grasped the mysteries of Pangu Force and understood the state of its accumulation within him.

If used well, Pangu Force would definitely be Xuan Qing's most important life-saving trump card or a hidden card for a counter-kill.

"I won't waste Pangu Force on you trash anymore. You're useless now, so you can just die!"

Having tested and gathered various information about Pangu Force, Xuan Qing stopped wasting words.

Although he was only an Early-stage Great Overarching Golden Immortal, he still had the strength to fight against Middle Stage experts of the same rank.

When the other Eight Grand Unity Golden Immortals saw the one who had been shouting the loudest suppressed by Xuan Qing in a single exchange...

...they all began to have second thoughts.

What kind of monstrous Grand Unity Golden Immortal was this? An Early Stage one-shotting a Middle Stage in a single exchange.

"No—!"

The Grand Unity Golden Immortal held in Xuan Qing's hand let out a shrill, unwilling scream before Xuan Qing directly crushed his head.

Not only that, but Xuan Qing also unleashed a Divine Fire, incinerating the other's Physical Body into ashes.

Furthermore, he dispersed both the opponent's Primordial Spirit and true spirit.

Following such a procedure ensured the opponent was as dead as could be.

"How brutal!"

Tai Yi shrunk his neck, watching Xuan Qing complete the entire process with a hint of fear.

This guy provided a One-stop service: killing, body-burning, and soul-releasing.

Such proficiency was enough to make one's heart ache just watching.

"Run! Brothers!"

Someone shouted, and the remaining Eight Grand Unity Golden Immortals immediately scattered and fled in all directions.

Xuan Qing was simply too brutal; they had no confidence to face him.

None of them wanted to be the next being to receive Xuan Qing's "one-stop soul-releasing service."

The nine Grand Unity Golden Immortals, who were only a temporary team, saw one die and the remaining eight fled instantly.

From the nine Grand Unity Golden Immortals surrounding Xuan Qing to the eight fleeing in panic...

...it took less than three breaths of time.

Xuan Qing didn't pursue them but stayed where he was to wait; The two brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi would surely come looking for him.

Moreover, he didn't want to create unnecessary slaughter and incur too much Karma.

Killing the Grand Unity Golden Immortal who had instigated the group was enough to test his Pangu Force.

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist truly has impressive methods."

"My brother and I saw those nine Grand Unity Golden Immortals gather and pursue you in the direction you left."

"We were originally planning to come and help you, Daoist Friend Xuan Qing."

"We never expected you to be this powerful; even with nine Middle Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortals joining forces..."

"...you handled them with ease. It has truly been an eye-opener for us brothers."

As expected, Dijun's hearty laughter soon came from behind.

His words were full of praise for Xuan Qing.

Dijun was determined to befriend and win over such a formidable man.

"I thank Daoist Friends Di Jun and Tai Yi for your kind intentions."

"It was just a minor trouble; there was no need for you two to intervene."

"I only needed to crush one, and the others would naturally collapse without a fight. They were nothing more than a disorganized rabble."

In reality, Xuan Qing sneered inwardly. Help him? They were more likely trying to test him or watch him make a fool of himself.

If he had truly been defeated by the nine Grand Unity Golden Immortals, these two brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi would have definitely been the first to snatch his Spirit Treasures.

Since he won, they claimed they were just a step too late to help, and he even had to thank them.

What a clever calculation.

However, Xuan Qing didn't expose them; he was just playing along. To infiltrate the Yao Race, he still needed the approval of these two.

"You are too polite, Fellow Daoist. We brothers didn't do anything; it's just a pity we arrived a step too late."

"Otherwise, we would have surely joined forces with you to kill those remaining Eight Grand Unity Golden Immortals as well."

Seeing that he had successfully built some goodwill, Dijun put on an expression of deep regret.

Xuan Qing cooperatively played along with the two brothers' performance.

The two brothers were still feeling self-satisfied with their successful attempt to win over Xuan Qing.

Little did they know that in Xuan Qing's eyes, their behavior was nothing short of a clown act.

Having dealt with the tails and finished the act with Di Jun and Tai Yi, Xuan Qing hurried toward the Eastern Continent without hesitation.

He had no time to waste here with The two brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi.

With every second of delay, he feared that Ancestor of Reincarnation would be completely misled by Hongjun.

"Big Brother, did you manage to find out exactly what power that Xuan Qing used?"

After Xuan Qing left, The two brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi remained where they were, and Tai Yi spoke solemnly.

When they were close to Xuan Qing earlier, the two brothers still felt a strong sense of threat from him.

This indicated that Xuan Qing's devastating and overwhelming power was not a one-time thing.

The two brothers appearing and approaching Xuan Qing was, on one hand, to ascertain the sustainability of his power.

On the other hand, it was to investigate exactly what that power was.

"No, Xuan Qing hid that power very well."

"This elder brother couldn't find even a single trace of it."

"Oh well, since we've already befriended Xuan Qing, there will be plenty of opportunities to test him in the future."

"For now, our main focus should still be traveling through the Primordial Era, seeking opportunities, and getting to know more Fellow Daoists."

"A person as mysterious and powerful as Xuan Qing won't be easily recruited."

Dijun didn't have the inclination to chase after Xuan Qing; the main purpose of the two brothers leaving the Sun Star was to travel the Primordial Era and find opportunities.

Along the way, they would also get to know experts of the Primordial Era and recruit some subordinates.

It wasn't worth giving up opportunities and more subordinates just for Xuan Qing.

"Big Brother, aren't those right there already available?"

"Those Eight Grand Unity Golden Immortals might not be very strong, but they are more than enough to serve as our underlings."
