Given Xiao Ning's cunning and treacherous nature, he would never get involved in these muddled calamities. Instead, he would hide on the Three Immortal Islands, spending his days comprehending the Great Dao, living a carefree and leisurely life.
Of course, his reputation as a master of courting death is well-deserved.
At the end of the Great Calamity, when Luo Hou set up the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and single-handedly attacked four innate gods and demons—Hongjun Ancestor, Yin Yang Ancestor, Qiankun Ancestor, and Yangmei Ancestor—Lao Yin was forced to leave the island.
He came to the western part of the continent and hid to watch the show.
Subsequently, Hongjun used underhanded tactics to kill Yin Yang and Qian Kun, frighten away Yang Mei, and force Luo Hou to self-destruct.
Xiao Ning, in his true form, burst forth and snatched away the two supreme treasures left behind by Luo Hou: the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus and the God-Slaying Spear.
The twelfth-grade world-destroying black lotus needs no introduction; it was transformed from the thirty-sixth-grade creation green lotus and is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure with forty-eight innate restrictions.
The God-Slaying Spear is even more extraordinary. It is the stem of the Creation Green Lotus and is combined with boundless ferocious energy. Holding it can harm even a Primordial Saint. It is a supreme innate treasure.
However, it was damaged after Luo Hou self-destructed the Western Spiritual Vein, and was downgraded to a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, still with forty-eight innate restrictions.
These two spiritual treasures never appeared in later generations. They may have hidden themselves or been taken away by Luo Hou. In any case, Xiao Ning, the original body, felt justified in taking them.
As for the Taiji diagram of the Yin-Yang Ancestor, there's no need to fight over it; it will eventually return to his clone's hands.
The Qiankun Cauldron left behind by the Ancestor of Qiankun is related to Nuwa's creation of humans and her attainment of sainthood, so even the cunning old man dares not act recklessly.
Otherwise, the human race would not be able to emerge, which would be a grave sin.
As for the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, that old schemer doesn't even look at it.
With the God-Slaying Spear, who would still need the Immortal-Slaying Sword, which couldn't suppress destiny?
Grab a piece and run, that's so exciting!
After acquiring the two treasures, he thus formed a grudge against Hongjun.
Even when forced to retreat, Lao Yin remained calm and secluded himself on the Three Immortals Island to cultivate in seclusion, attempting to attain the Primordial Chaos Realm.
To be fair, with his Eternal Great Luo Perfection realm and numerous treasures, Lao Yin fears no one except the Primordial Saint.
The so-called Great Perfection of Luo is also known as Quasi-Saint.
The Supreme Merit Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Primordial Measuring Ruler, plus the Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure, the God-Slaying Spear, and the Supreme Innate Spiritual Twelve-Petaled World-Destroying Black Lotus.
Are you scared?
It was at this time that the Three Pure Ones were born.
It is formed from the primordial spirit of Pangu, and its innate foundation is that of a top existence in the prehistoric world. Once it takes human form, it becomes an immortal golden immortal.
Fortunately, the three of them had their own lineage, and with the strong persuasion of the Taiqing Laozi, who was an incarnation of the old cunning man, the other two did not go out to cause trouble and managed to survive the Dragon-Han Tribulation.
Not only the three brothers, but also many famous supernatural beings in later generations emerged, such as the twelve ancestral witches of the witch clan, the two emperors of the demon clan, Hongyun, Zhenyuanzi, Styx, Kunpeng and so on.
Another era has passed, and Xiao Ning, having just completely refined the two supreme treasures, received news of Hongjun's ascension to sainthood.
Its power was so great that it made the old cunning man grit his teeth and hate it with all his might.
Now we're stuck!
Even a fool could figure it out: the moment he leaves the Three Immortal Islands, Hongjun will find him, and even if he doesn't die, he'll be badly injured.
Moreover, as the prehistoric world grows stronger and more complete, the Heavenly Dao of the prehistoric world also becomes increasingly powerful.
Previously equivalent to the Eternal Great Luo Realm, the Heavenly Dao now definitely possesses the strength of a Primordial Saint.
If that's the case, as soon as Xiao Ning steps out of the Three Immortal Islands, he will definitely be sought after, and if things go wrong, his life may be in danger.
There was no other way, so he had to continue to live a life of hiding.
Next, the Zixiao Palace held three lectures and conferred holy titles.
First, Nuwa created humans and became a saint; then the Three Pure Ones established religions among the eight tribes and became saints; and then two people from the West established the Western Religion and became saints.
The primordial world ushered in the era of saints.
After Xiao Taiqing Ning became a saint, he secretly colluded with the original body and frequently traveled between Kunlun Mountain and the Three Immortal Islands.
Originally, everything was going smoothly. As long as Xiao Ning survived one or two more tribulations, he would eventually attain the Primordial Chaos Realm. At that time, he would no longer fear the Heavenly Dao or Hongjun.
But, to my utter surprise...
The struggle between the Lich and Demon races for the position of overlord of the primordial world has drawn the attention of the tiny human race.
Humanity has only existed for about five hundred years. Its population is small and none of them know how to cultivate. It goes without saying that they are often eaten by ferocious beasts and monsters.
Unexpectedly, even the powerful Wu and Yao tribes, the overlords of the primordial world, have set their sights on the human race.
Demons can increase their cultivation by eating humans.
The Wu tribe used the lifeblood of humans to forge the Wu Demon Sword.
As a result, the human race was truly in deep trouble.
The already small ethnic group was immediately made even worse, and their situation became even more difficult.
The old cunning Xiao Ning, whose true form and clone Xiao Taiqing Ning both originated from the same source and were of human origin, and although they now have different backgrounds, they still consider themselves human at heart.
Seeing this situation, they were naturally so angry that their three spirits jumped up and down.
However, Xiao Ning, the main body, dared not leave the island, and his clone, Xiao Taiqing Ning, was not in a position to interfere in the matter, for fear that Hongjun would become suspicious.
