When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Chapter 368 Evil and Greed

Three months later, Zhu Chongjiu opened his eyes.

"Fortunately, this world is not very large, about the same size as my current Yanhuang World, otherwise it would take a long time to purify it."

After saying this, Zhu Chongjiu looked at his masterpiece. Before him were green trees and fragrant flowers, high mountains and low valleys, rivers, lakes and seas, the sun, moon and stars, all within this realm.

After nodding in satisfaction, Zhu Chongjiu's figure disappeared from the spot.

When he reappeared, he had already arrived at the territory of the Wood God Immortal Palace.

"Young friend, it seems the danger inside has been completely resolved?" Sensing Zhu Chongjiu's aura, Mu Zu suddenly appeared before him and asked.

"That's right, senior, it's all done."

I also modified that place a bit, turning it into my secret base.

Therefore, Senior Mu Zu, you still cannot remove the formation of your Wood God Palace.

“No problem, young friend. Although I cannot return to the ancient gods with Ganglie and the others, you have removed such an unpredictable danger for me, which has finally put my mind at ease.”

"Since that's the case, and you know how urgent things are, then I won't stay here any longer, senior."

"Young friend, what are you saying? Go and get on with your work."

I believe we will definitely meet again someday.

After saying that, Mu Zu made a gesture as if to push Zhu Chongjiu outwards.

Seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu solemnly bowed to Mu Zu and said, "Thank you for taking me in back then, Senior Mu Zu."

"If anything happens in the future, just inform Murong Yu, the president of the Peace Chamber of Commerce, or the Human Emperor. They will do everything they can to help you, senior."

"From now on, this Proterozoic Era will be managed by your people. I trust your character, which means I also trust the people you have chosen."

Under their leadership, the entire Proterozoic Eon will surely prosper and the previous situation will never happen again.

In the days to come, I will stay here and retire here, so there will be nothing for them to worry about.

However, I appreciate your kind intentions.

After saying that, Mu Zu's figure disappeared before his eyes.

A month later, deep within the Ruins of Guixu, Shuiying was talking with Zhu Chongjiu.

"Little Jiu, do you know that this Azure God Realm was the first world formed during the Primordial Era?"

"Senior Shuiying, I had guessed that."

Previously, when I first entered the Ancient God Ruins continent, I discovered people of the same race as those on the Five Elements Continent.

But one thing I can sense is that their bloodline is not as ancient as that of the people in the Azure God Realm.

With continuous improvement in strength and a deepening understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, this is not so difficult to discover.

Shuiying did not show much surprise upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words.

It seemed she was certain that with Zhu Chongjiu's strength and intellect, he must already know some things about the entire Primordial Universe, including the ancient gods.

"Is Mu Jian done with his business?" Shui Ying asked, changing the subject.

"It's all done. The reason I came here this time was to see what's being suppressed down here."

"After all, I'm really eager to go home right now," Zhu Chongjiu replied.

"Okay, I won't hold you up any longer."

If you can handle Mu Zu's situation so easily, I'm sure you can handle mine too.

Go quickly and come back quickly!

As soon as Shui Ying finished speaking, Zhu Chongjiu bowed to her and then disappeared from her sight.

"Greed is endless greed!"

This was the aura that Zhu Chongjiu sensed as soon as he entered the passage, before he even reached the other side of the world.

"Holy crap, what is this thing?"

Just as Zhu Chongjiu's body arrived in the other world through the passage, a powerful devouring force acted upon him.

When he looked closely, there was nothing there but an endless black hole.

This devouring power emanated from this black hole.

"Trying to devour me? Do you even have the skill? Void Laws, traverse the void for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Chongjiu reappeared, already far from the black hole's swallowing range.

"The Void Beast's innate divine ability is really useful. Fortunately, after I reached the Venerable level, I learned this skill from that kid Xu Wang."

Otherwise, that massive Devouring Law would have been really hard to dodge!

Zhu Chongjiu muttered to himself as he looked in the direction where he had just been devoured.

"grass!

Could this be...?

It has a human face and a sheep's body, four eyes under its armpits, tiger teeth, and human claws.

No wonder the aura of greed is so strong, and it also possesses a powerful law of devouring.

But it's not surprising. There was Xiao Hei from before, Zhu Zhenmei from Crimson Flame Planet, Hei Zhu, a giant of the Immortal Clan who was killed by the Nine Heavens Immortal Venerable, and the one that was suppressed by the Sunwood Immortal Palace some time ago.

It's not surprising that one has appeared here now.

This ferocious beast, with its gaping maw big enough to cover the entire passage, was probably bewildered because it sensed that its prey, which was just about to be caught, had vanished. It was looking around blankly.

"Hey, you idiot."

Yes, I'm talking to you, I'm right here!

Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's voice, the enormous beast, before it could even turn around, lunged at Zhu Chongjiu with its massive jaws.

"No wonder all living things in this world have disappeared; what could it possibly eat!"

Having said that, Zhu Chongjiu stopped arguing and suddenly his greatsword appeared in his hand, which he then slashed with.

Even the Nine Heavens Immortal Venerable at his peak, when Zhu Chongjiu was still an Emperor-level being on the verge of death, could sever his cultivation of billions of years with the great sword that had been refined into a Chaos Divine Weapon by Little Gold and Little Fire. Not to mention him now that he has reached the Venerable level.

A massive sword beam appeared, seemingly tailor-made for the ferocious beast opposite.

Without wasting a single ounce of energy, the sword swept down from above, instantly splitting the ferocious beast in two.

"These two angles are quite good, containing a strong law of devouring."

These four eyes are also potent; once you meet their gaze, you can plunge someone into endless greed, from which they cannot escape, and drive them mad…!

Half an hour later, looking at the ferocious beast that he had already dissected, Zhu Chongjiu sat down cross-legged.

After three months, Zhu Chongjiu opened his tightly closed eyes.

"Senior Shuiying, how is it?"

Looking at the new world before her, Shuiying only replied with one word: "Beautiful!"

Upon hearing Shui Ying's praise, Zhu Chongjiu said, "Senior, consider this world as a parting gift from me."

If possible, you could relocate some of your subordinates from the Dead Black Sea to live in this world.

"Thank you for the parting gift, Xiao Jiu. I like it very much." After thanking Zhu Chongjiu, Shui Ying asked, "Are you really not planning to stay in the Primordial Universe for a while longer?"

"No, I'm in a hurry to go home to see my child and hug my wife!" Zhu Chongjiu replied.

"Then I wish you a safe journey!"

With Shuiying's final farewell, Zhu Chongjiu arrived at Shenxu.

In fact, on the third day after Zhu Chongjiu entered the Guixu Passage, Shuiying, feeling uneasy, followed him in as well.

Although she knew that Zhu Chongjiu, who had reached the Venerable level, was terrifyingly powerful, the creature below him was something even she couldn't do anything about.

Shui Ying's plan was to hold the creature back while Zhu Chongjiu used his Chaos Divine Weapon to kill it.

Although it somewhat disobeyed the orders of the ancient gods, it was better to leave Zhu Chongjiu alone in the far reaches of the heavens than to let him die there by himself.

However, the reality was far beyond her expectations.

The moment she entered the passage, the aura of greed that had permeated the passage before began to fade away for some reason.

Everything became clear when she actually entered that world.

Zhu Chongjiu is using his myriad laws to gradually devour and erode the original greed and devouring energy in this world.

But since she had already come in, she didn't leave and stayed with Zhu Chongjiu there for three months.

This is why Zhu Chongjiu spoke to Shuiying as soon as he opened his eyes.

Of course, Shuiying did this for her own selfish reasons.

She wanted to experience the power of Zhu Chongjiu's laws within his world of laws, hoping to see if she could take a step forward in her stagnant cultivation, even if only by a little.

But things didn't go as planned. The three months of observing the Dao, which seemed vast and disordered yet were all inevitably connected by the myriad laws, left Shui Ying overwhelmed and completely confused.

Shui Ying had never even heard of the power of laws that Zhu Chongjiu used when he recreated and changed this world.

When Zhu Chongjiu said he wanted to give her this new world, she agreed without hesitation, partly because the new world had just been formed and the great paths within it were still chaotic and irregular.

She could also continue to observe Zhu Chongjiu's teachings here after he left.
