107: Chapter 107 Cooperation with Yang Mei, Scheming Against Xuanhuang

Deep within the Inner Chaos, Yang Mei sensed that insignificant trace of power of merit.

This force was so weak that its effect on the Restriction left behind by Pangu within his body was negligible.

After all, this power of merit was simply too scarce.

The means left behind by Pangu required a massive amount of Karma to dissolve; what use was such an insignificant trace of Karma?

This fellow bringing such a small amount of things here was practically tantamount to a provocation.

For a moment, the aura on his body became even more formidable.

Jidu's expression tightened; without hesitation, he took out another remains of chaos demon gods and handed it to Daoist Yang Mei.

For reasons unknown back then, Daoist Yang Mei might have had other thoughts in mind; he had not killed those Innate Fierce Beasts, nor had he collected the remains of chaos demon gods.

Perhaps it was because he was also a Chaos Demon God, or perhaps he was afraid of other Chaos Demon Gods finding out about this matter.

Although the Chaos Demon Gods appeared to have fallen, their traces had not completely disappeared; in reality, it was nothing more than a form of slumber.

Once they returned, no matter how weak and incomplete they might be, they would still be beings at the Hun Yuan level.

Among them, there were even powerhouses at the Limitless Realm.

Yang Mei appeared extremely indifferent, but in reality, he still held some apprehension toward those beings of the same level.

If he really touched the means they had left in the Primordial World, it would undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble once they returned in the future.

He could not afford to gamble, nor was he willing to do so.

But now, he had no choice. Hongjun and the other beings would not give him any other options.

At this moment, Daoist Jidu spoke with a beaming smile:

"Hehe, Fellow Daoist, this is the remains of chaos demon gods. If you sacrifice it, you will obtain quite a significant amount of Karma, although it might not necessarily be able to lift the shackles within your body."

"I believe Fellow Daoist can still manage to erupt with a trace of Hun Yuan power for a short period of time."

"At that time, you can completely rely on the Hun Yuan power to suppress the curse."

Jidu chuckled, and Hongjun was also watching Yang Mei with a smile from the side.

The two of them were extremely vigilant toward the one before them.

The Space Demon God was, after all, an extremely ancient existence whose strength exceeded their imagination; if they were not vigilant, would they not just be courting death?

Yang Mei looked at the remains of chaos demon gods, a myriad of emotions welling up in his heart.

Within the Boundless Sea of Chaos, besides him achieving the Limitless Realm, there were also other Limitless Realm powerhouses during the era of Pangu.

He was very strong, but he had opponents.

At their Realm, it was almost impossible to truly perish.

Hongjun and Luo Hou were forcing him to make a choice, a real choice.

After all, these Chaos Demon Gods all had grudges against the Honghuang World, and now they were merely constrained by the means of Pangu.

If he were to recover to the Hun Yuan Limitless level and leave the Primordial World, would he revive those Chaos Demon Gods?

Daoist Yang Mei was very clear that he absolutely would.

If they could not die, was Pangu definitely dead?

If he really were dead, that would involve mysteries of a higher level.

As a cultivator, how could one not want to know about such mysteries?

But involving oneself in such mysteries always entailed a trace of risk and threat.

To break the deadlock, there was only one way: to let other beings wade into these muddy waters.

Reviving former Fellow Daoists was certainly necessary; otherwise, where would he find candidates to test the Honghuang World for him?

As for now, looking at the remains of chaos demon gods handed over by Luo Hou, there was a trace of hesitation in his heart.

Once sacrificed, he would indeed obtain a massive amount of power of merit, and the curse within his body would be easily resolved.

However, this matter would be known by other Chaos Demon Gods.

Their attitude toward him would certainly be filled with immense hatred and apprehension.

If he did not do so... His gaze turned toward the Incarnation of Hongjun and Jidu.

Especially that Daoist Jidu; his falling to such a state was entirely because of this one.

"Forget it; since I have already fallen to this state, what choice is there to speak of?"

"Hehe, former Fellow Daoists... but they did not believe my words, so what if I betray them?"

Daoist Yang Mei let out a long sigh and spoke leisurely.

He had long had no choice. With the emergence of Saints, as a Reincarnation of a Chaos Demon God, how could he easily leave without paying some price?

If he truly refused, Hongjun and Luo Hou would absolutely not let him gain any advantage.

With one being who had already achieved Hun Yuan, plus a Saint of the world, he was definitely not an opponent.

A willow branch stretched out toward the remains of chaos demon gods, and in an instant, the remains were covered with runes.

The next instant, a ball of flames rose from the remains of chaos demon gods.

Those runes connected to the Primordial World, directly turning into pure Origin power, which then merged into the world.

A cluster of Karma descended, and an ethereal aura erupted from Yang Mei's body.

The curse power that had originally been raging was, at this moment, imprisoned by that inexplicable force, eventually turning into a small ball, sealed within his body.

Subsequently, Daoist Yang Mei transformed into his Innate Dao Body and spoke to Hongjun and Luo Hou:

"Speak. Now that I have betrayed my former Fellow Daoists, you should finally be at ease, right?"

There was a trace of chill in his tone; after all, anyone being schemed against like this would definitely not feel good.

Jidu and Hongjun exchanged a glance, then stepped forward. The aura on his body changed drastically, filled with chilling Devilish Qi, and he smiled faintly at Daoist Yang Mei:

"Fellow Daoist Yang Mei, I am truly sorry. Our actions were merely for the sake of the world."

"My schemes back then were because Fellow Daoist was too powerful; without borrowing external forces, this poor Daoist was simply no match for you!"

Luo Hou looked sincere, seemingly apologizing for the past.

Yang Mei's gaze looked leisurely at Jidu—no, at this moment, it would be better to say Luo Hou.

An Incarnation was, after all, just an Incarnation. Unless it was meticulously crafted, some things could not be covered up.

The current Jidu was different; his body radiated the aura of hunyuan as one.

Demonic Path Hun Yuan; in that battle back then, he not only failed but also got himself involved. The strength of the one before him, however, had progressed rapidly.

He could vaguely sense that Luo Hou's main body within the Inner Chaos was likely no longer as simple as just having stepped into Hun Yuan.

Within this Realm, he should have taken a significant step forward.

Yet, these things, under his schemes, were originally stepping stones for him to recover to his Peak.

The current apology was merely for show.

At this moment, he snorted coldly.

"Hmph, stop with the nonsense. State your purpose directly. The Opportunity you mentioned cannot just be the remains of chaos demon gods."

"Even if you add up all the remaining remains of chaos demon gods in the Honghuang World, it is not enough for me to recover to my Peak cultivation."

"Haha, Fellow Daoist is indeed wise; you saw through our purpose at a glance. Coming to find Fellow Daoist this time is to invite you to take action and join us in dealing with a world in the Outer Great Chaos."

Luo Hou said with a smile, and with a wave of his hand, information regarding the Xuanhuang World appeared before Yang Mei's eyes.

Yang Mei's expression was heavy. A powerhouse at the Late-stage Hun Yuan, plus a world at the Hun Yuan level, could be considered a formidable enemy for him right now.

After thinking for a moment, a look of determination appeared on his face, and he spoke indifferently.

"I agree to this matter. It is just that with my current strength and status, I cannot spare too much power."

Luo Hou's expression tightened, and he said in a deep voice:

"You mean you are unwilling to do your best."

"No, what I mean is to get me a few more remains of chaos demon gods so that I can recover a certain amount of combat power."

Yang Mei's tone remained cold. In any case, from the moment he sacrificed the first remains of chaos demon gods, he had already offended his former Fellow Daoists.

What difference did it make whether he offended them a little more or a little less?

"Agreed!"
