Chapter 1027: Primordial Energy
"Nothing is impossible. This is my giant nine-colored tree," Xiao Nanfeng declared coldly.
The Superior seemed to have witnessed something horrifying. "No—impossible! We chopped down the giant nine-colored tree back in the past. We cursed and sealed it. Over the years, I've been draining its energy. It's impossible for it to revive, let alone return to its complete form. This has to be fake!"
The Superior was terrified. The giant nine-colored tree had left an indelible shadow of fear in his heart.
Xiao Nanfeng hadn't expected the Superior to react quite so intensely, but this development worked in his favor. Rather than explain himself further, he threw another punch, with the weight of a mountain range behind it.
This time, however, the Superior didn't attack furiously. Rather, he used a simple strike to propel himself backward and avoid Xiao Nanfeng.
"Why are you running? Come at me!" Xiao Nanfeng shouted, rushing forward.
The Superior continued to avoid Xiao Nanfeng, only for his eyes to narrow. "This isn't the same nine-colored tree from the past. It can't be. If it were, given my injuries, I'd already have been torn apart by its mastery over space."
Xiao Nanfeng snorted.
He hadn't expected to deceive the Superior for long. It didn't matter even if he had figured it out. The fight would continue.
Suddenly, the Superior's eyes widened as he figured out precisely what Xiao Nanfeng had done. "You recreated the giant nine-colored tree based on the laws and star maps of the Heavenly Dao Scroll, didn't you? You must have incorporated all the stars from the scroll into your domain!"
Xiao Nanfeng didn't respond. He continued to fly toward the Superior, who eyed the giant nine-colored tree even as he ran.
In the past, when Xiao Nanfeng formed his Deific Yin realm, the Superior had laughed at him for attempting to integrate all the stars from his Heavenly Dao Scroll within, rather than focusing on a small section that he could control. It now seemed that he was the fool.

"Impossible. How could you have condensed those star maps into the giant nine-colored tree? Without any primordial energy, it'd be impossible to nurture a new one. Just how did you do it?!" the Superior demanded.
"Primordial energy?"
"I remember now—the gray energy within the Divine Seal of Dazheng was able to restore the Heavenly Dao Scroll. That had to be primordial energy! But how did you—just how did you come into possession of it?!"
"Is it rare?" Xiao Nanfeng frowned.
"There are countless types of energy in the universe, and several can repair the Heavenly Dao Scroll. Primordial energy is the oldest, the one from which all others are derived. How could it have been hidden within that unremarkable purple crystal? Even a single trace of primordial energy can spark wars between civilizations, and even the Darkborn possess only a few traces of it. How did you manage to secure such treasure? How could you be so lucky?!" The Superior seethed.
Xiao Nanfeng frowned, falling into deep thought. He had heard of primordial energy before. In his past life on Earth, there were many myths and legends about chaos. The god Pangu was said to have been born out of that primordial soup—perhaps this primordial energy referred to the same thing.
"For you to have replicated all the star maps from the Heavenly Dao Scroll, your talent is truly terrifying. Not only that, you've managed to recreate the giant nine-colored tree. Fortunately, it hasn't materialized in full yet, or you would indeed be a formidable opponent," the Superior spat out.
He launched another palm strike at Xiao Nanfeng. Their attacks tore through the void as they collided. The Superior's initial interest in Xiao Nanfeng had turned to fear. If this dragged out any longer, Xiao Nanfeng would grow to a point where even he couldn't handle him. He was determined to kill him today at any cost.
The two cultivators continued to clash, each strike more violent than the last.
The giant nine-colored tree frantically absorbed the spiritual aether unique to the white life hidden realm. Most of it came from the earth. The tree's roots were deeply embedded in an island, drawing the aether directly from the ground and channeling it into Xiao Nanfeng's body, pushing his strength to its limits.
Although the Superior's golden tree was severely damaged, this was ultimately his domain. His golden tree likewise absorbed the energy of the hidden realm and continuously fed it into his body.
The two cultivators abandoned their flashy techniques and relied solely on their raw power as they continued to fight each other.
They were evenly matched; neither could gain the upper hand.
"The giant nine-colored tree is truly a calamity. To think it would be this powerful even in its incomplete form..." the Superior spat out.
With a hum, a bright silver moon appeared behind the Superior's head, casting blinding light at Xiao Nanfeng. A chilling aura surged toward his Deific Yin body.
At the same time, three moons—red, purple, and blue—appeared behind Xiao Nanfeng's head, radiating their own brilliant light to counter the Supeerior's.
The two forces collided, each trying to suppress the other.
"Your silver moon has grown stronger," Xiao Nanfeng remarked, glowering.
When he first split the Superior's soul from his, his three moons had barely been able to suppress the Superior's. Now, however, it seemed that they were struggling to keep up. The three moons trembled as though they were being influenced and controlled by the Superior himself. The only reason they had lasted this long was because he had melded them with the red rope cursed king, blue lotus, and purple mirror. Even so, his situation was growing more and more precarious.
The Superior smirked coldly. Having devoured numerous Heaven's Hands in the outside world, he had naturally purified and strengthened his silver moon.
"The three Qing Grandmasters have completely subdued their three moons and can still suppress me together, but yours are far from that level. Now!"
With a hum, beams of white light shot toward him from a distance. Countless silver moons in the periphery channeled their energy into the moon above the Superior's head.
The Superior's silver moon, bolstered by this influx of energy, instantly shone dozens of times brighter. With a deafening crash, it overwhelmed Xiao Nanfeng's three moons and bathed him in its white light.
A layer of frost rapidly formed over Xiao Nanfeng's body as the silver moon's power began to erode his Deific Yin form.
Even with the giant nine-colored tree continuously replenishing his energy, Xiao Nanfeng was struggling to hold on.
"You won't be able to last against me. This is my domain! Prepare to die, haha!" the Superior crowed.
Just then, three beams of light—red, purple, and blue—shot down from the sky and struck the Superior's moon with tremendous force. The moon shuddered violently, and its white light scattered.
Xiao Nanfeng took advantage of the opportunity to disengage from the Superior with a powerful palm strike.
"Who's there?" the Superior demanded, looking up at the sky.
Three women stood in the air—Zhang Lingjun, Xia Yu'er, and Lan Yaoguang. Each had a moon floating behind her head.
As soon as the three women entered the white life hidden realm, they had seen the intense battle in the distance. They had initially planned to hide and wait for the right moment to act, but when they saw Xiao Nanfeng in danger, they couldn't hold back.
They exchanged glances, silently agreeing on their course of action, before striking simultaneously.
Each woman activated her moon. Beams of bright light struck the Superior's silver moon and saved Xiao Nanfeng from his predicament.
"How did you enter the white life hidden realm?!" the Superior demanded. The next moment, he roared, "Take them down!"
The white-furred monsters surged into the sky and charged toward the three women. Even the Superior abandoned his fight with Xiao Nanfeng and rushed toward them.
Upon seeing the three women, Xiao Nanfeng's eyes lit up with joy.
He activated his candleflame powers and teleported over to them.
The women were about to rush forward when Xiao Nanfeng urged, "Quickly, enter my divine seal!"
He pulled them into the interior of his seal.
Though they instinctively wanted to resist, they quickly suppressed those urges and allowed Xiao Nanfeng to pull them in.
Then, activating his candleflame powers again, Xiao Nanfeng vanished. Where he and the women had been, countless blades and techniques whizzed by.
The giant nine-colored tree in the distance flickered and disappeared as Xiao Nanfeng fled in a certain direction.
"Hold it right there!" the Superior roared, chasing after him.
A horde of white-furred monsters followed closely behind as they joined the pursuit.
The Superior, now in a frenzy, was determined to kill Xiao Nanfeng at any cost. However, at his full speed and with the help of his candleflame powers, Xiao Nanfeng left no traces behind. It was impossible to track him down, and he quickly shook off the white-furred monsters.
Within the hour, Xiao Nanfeng had vanished from sight.
The Superior cursed at the empty sky. "Don't you dare run! If not for my wounds, I'd already have captured you—just you wait! The next time we meet, I'll kill you!"
Unfortunately for him, Xiao Nanfeng was already far away.
"Search the realm! Find him!" the Superior demanded.
"Understood!" the white-furred monsters responded in unison.
By then, Xiao Nanfeng had hidden himself deep within the sea. He stepped into the Divine Seal of Dazheng, where he was reunited with the three women he had missed so dearly.
The women, who had been worried about Xiao Nanfeng's safety, breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him unharmed.
"Nanfeng!"
"Nanfeng!"
"Nanfeng!"
Their voices were filled with joy, and their eyes shone with deep affection.
