The Great Dao split the Grandmist, and Chaos was born. Three Thousand primordial violet qi evolved into Three Thousand Great Daos, and Three Thousand Demon Gods emerged alongside the Dao, inherently attuned to the Great Dao. However, "The Great Dao has fifty, Heavenly Evolution has forty-nine," and a sliver of life escaped into the formless. Pangu, the Demon God of Strength, happened to be this variable. He carried the jade disc of creation, the Heaven-Opening Axe, and the chaos green lotus, three Chaos Supreme Treasures, and secretly harbored the chaos pearl within him. Utilizing the power of the jade disc of creation, Pangu mastered all Three Thousand Laws, then integrated them into his own Law of Strength. His cultivation instantly broke through to the Hunyuan Wuji Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm, reaching the half-step Hunyuan Taiji Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm—just one step away from the Great Dao. Alas, the Great Dao's shackles were difficult to break, and his cultivation stagnated thereafter.
One day, Pangu suddenly felt a mission descend—to open the heavens and establish the Righteous Path. It turned out that the Great Dao did not wish for Chaos to remain in eternal stillness and perpetual gloom, so it brought forth the Tribulation of Heaven-Opening. Seeing Pangu understand his mission, the Great Dao bestowed upon him the top-grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, the Earth-Splitting Chisel, as a reward. Creating a new world in Chaos was originally insignificant, but the Great Dao specifically declared: the new world must be constructed with Three Thousand Laws, and those who hinder Pangu from successfully opening the heavens can attain the Great Dao.
As Pangu held the Heaven-Opening Axe and the Earth-Splitting Chisel, just about to swing the axe to open the heavens, the ten supreme Demon Gods, led by the Time Demon God Shichen and the Space Demon God Yang Mei, swarmed in with the Three Thousand Demon Gods, surrounding him. A battle that swept across the entire Chaos suddenly erupted, and when the dust finally settled, all Three Thousand Demon Gods had perished, leaving only Pangu. He was severely wounded, his cultivation falling back to the Peak of Hunyuan Wuji Golden Immortal, and his four Chaos Supreme Treasures were all broken. A mouthful of vital blood gushed from his colossal body, landing precisely where the vital blood of the Yin and Yang Demon God and the Devouring Demon God had previously converged. As the three streams of vital blood merged, a faint consciousness quietly emerged—it was Wang Lin, a young intellectual from the twenty-first century, who had Transmigrated here due to an accident.
Pangu, who was about to open the heavens, sensed this weak Divine Sense and realized it was a Primordial Spirit born from his own vital blood. Seeing its weak Divine Thought, fearing it would be devoured by the residual power of the Heaven-Opening, Pangu immediately instilled a portion of his own cultivation and Legacy into it. Taking advantage of the spiritual light of his cultivation to conceal it, he then struck the chaos pearl into Wang Lin's Sea of Consciousness—both to protect him and to guard against the Great Dao's future moves. After Wang Lin had received the Legacy and cultivation, Pangu set up a barrier to protect him on the side.
At this time, the Laws contained within the corpses of the Three Thousand Demon Gods were gradually dissipating. If the Laws completely scattered, the new world would be incomplete. Pangu no longer hesitated, swinging the Heaven-Opening Axe to cleave fiercely at Chaos. The moment the three hundred and sixty-fifth axe fell, Chaos split open with a roar: clear Qi ascended, transforming into the firmament; turbid Qi condensed and fell, transforming into the earth. The Heaven-Opening Axe and the Earth-Splitting Chisel also could not bear the immense strain and disintegrated—the axe blade of the Heaven-Opening Axe transformed into the pangu banner, possessing the power to shatter the Grandmist and crush all heavens, and its Chaos Sword Qi could tear through space-time, making it the most powerful offensive innate supreme treasure; the axe back transformed into the taiji diagram, capable of manifesting golden bridges to traverse the Void Realm, suppressing energy riots, calming the earth, water, fire, and wind, transforming the Yin and Yang and Five Elements, and even reverting space-time to the Grandmist, making it omnipotent in offense, defense, and trapping enemies; the axe handle transformed into the chaos bell, capable of suppressing the Grandmist Luck, twisting the rules of space-time, providing invincible defense, and its bell sound could both reflect attacks and imprison all things. The Earth-Splitting Chisel transformed into the four swords of immortal execution and the immortal-slaying formation diagram.
However, the nascent heaven and earth were not yet stable; the earth, fire, wind, and water raged, space-time was chaotic, and heaven and earth showed signs of collapsing. Pangu once again tore through space with the pangu banner, the chaos bell suppressed space-time, and the taiji diagram calmed the earth, fire, wind, and water. Yet, heaven and earth still threatened to close, so Pangu had no choice but to hold up the sky with both hands and step on the ground with his feet, his body standing majestically like an ancient jade pillar. His muscles bulged like the gnarled roots of ancient trees, every fiber strained to the extreme, and his veins pulsed like angry Dragons beneath his skin, bearing the endless pressure of heaven and earth collapsing. Sweat rolled from his bronze forehead, dripping onto the nascent earth, instantly transforming into surging rivers; the rising steam ascended into the high sky, condensing into vast clouds.
Tens of millions of years passed, and the tension between heaven and earth continued to tear at his body. His breathing grew heavier, each exhalation stirring up gales that swept across the four seas; his eyes gradually lost their luster, yet they remained fixed on the boundary between heaven and earth, his gaze seemingly wanting to completely sever Chaos. Suddenly, his left arm trembled slightly, bones emitting a brittle sound from the unbearable strain, and the entire arm visibly shriveled—but Pangu did not retreat in the slightest. Instead, he plunged his right leg deep into the earth's pulse, using the power of the earth's core to bear more weight, and his foot even pressed out a ten-thousand-zhang gully, which transformed into a network of valleys.
When the last trace of Divine Power was exhausted, Pangu cast a glance back at the vital blood in the barrier, and his colossal body crashed to the ground with a dull roar that shook heaven and earth. His head rolled to the east, transforming into the majestic Mount Tai, and his hair scattered into the lush forests of the mountains; his torso lay across the central plains, becoming the sprawling Kunlun Mountain mountain range, his bones forming the subterranean metallic and rocky mineral veins, and his blood flowed along the gullies, converging into lakes and oceans that nourished all things.
His left arm fell to the south, transforming into the warm Mount Heng in the south, the flesh and blood of his palm nurturing strange flowers and plants that remained evergreen throughout the seasons; his right arm landed in the north, becoming the ice-bound Mount Heng in the north, his finger bones protruding like perilous Peaks. His two legs separately transformed into Mount Hua in the west and Mount Song in the center, and with the flexing and extending of his toes, gushing hot springs emerged from beneath the earth.
Even more wondrously, his final exhalation of clear Qi ascended to become the sun, moon, and stars; his left eye transformed into the scorching sun illuminating the earth, and his right eye transformed into the bright moon nourishing all things; the turbid Qi from his mouth transformed into wind, rain, thunder, and lightning; his hair became the birds and beasts of the mountains and fields; the fine scales on his skin shed, transforming into fish, shrimp, crabs, and clams swimming in the water. Even the parasites on his body, nourished by the earth, transformed into various insects. And the corpses of the Three Thousand Demon Gods, following the evolution of Pangu's Physical Body, integrated into heaven and earth, ushering in the era of all living beings.
The moment Pangu fell, the spine that had supported heaven and earth for tens of millions of years still maintained its unyielding posture of holding up the sky and standing on the ground. It was like an azure jade pillar piercing through ancient and modern times, emerging from his chest and reaching the base of his skull. Each vertebra was heavier than a mountain, its surface condensed with the unscattered Chaos spiritual light from the Heaven-Opening, and its patterns were as profound as the cracks of the newly opened earth.
As the great god's body merged with heaven and earth, this spine suddenly shot up from the ground, crashing into the firmament with a roar. The gaps between the bones transformed into deep valleys, the prominent veins became perilous Peaks, and the flaking bone fragments fell in all directions, forming rugged strange rocks surrounding the mountain. The top of the spine, where his head once rested, rose into a Peak that pierced the clouds, perpetually shrouded in primordial violet qi, making even the sun, moon, and stars seem to revolve beneath its feet.
Even more remarkable, the unscattered Divine Power deep within the spine seeped into the earth's veins, transforming into surging magma and sweet springs, nourishing the mountains to produce the first trace of spiritual essence; the lingering Heaven-Opening pressure condensed and remained, preventing other mountains from competing, thus establishing its supreme status of "supporting the sky and propping up the earth." From then on, Mount Buzhou, formed from Pangu's spine, became the most majestic pillar between heaven and earth, carrying the undying will of the great god, standing for eternity.
Heaven and earth finally stabilized, and the great god who opened the heavens and earth, along with the numerous Demon Gods, had already integrated with this nascent world. Every inch of land, every wisp of Qi, was inscribed with their mighty power and sacrifice. A wave of pressure swept across the entire Great Desolation. The jade disc of creation and the chaos green lotus could no longer withstand the pressure and shattered with a resounding crash.

The chaos green lotus that nurtured Great God Pangu finally met its destined end.
The moment the lotus body disintegrated, a ripe lotus seed, imbued with endless vitality, evolved in the Void Realm, transforming into a 24-petal jade disc of creation green lotus.
Its petals shimmered with the aura of Chaos Origin, sacred and beyond compare.
Four other not fully matured lotus seeds, each carrying the essence of heaven and earth, condensed into the 12-petal golden lotus of merit, the 12-petal karmic red lotus, the 12-petal world-destroying black lotus, and the 12-petal world-purifying white lotus.
The four lotuses each had a distinct aura, all representing the pinnacle among Inate Spirit Treasures.
The unfurling lotus leaves of the green lotus also found their respective destinations: the five largest lotus leaves absorbed the Five Elements Qi, transforming into the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner, the Green Lotus Precious Color Banner, the Lidi Flame Light Banner, the Plain Cloud Boundary Banner, and the Xuanyuan Water Control Banner, collectively known as the "five directions innate banners."
These banners guarded the Five Elements directions, capable of concealing heaven and earth and setting up the Innate Five Elements Great Array, with power comparable to an innate supreme treasure.
The remaining five smaller lotus leaves transformed into the Precious Lotus Lamp, the Jade Void Glazed Lamp, the Eight Sceneries Palace Lamp, the Spirit Coffin Lamp, and the Emerald Light Two Forms Lamp, their flickering flames reflecting the mysteries of Yin and Yang, illusion and reality, and Reincarnation.
After the layers of lotus petals shattered, they transformed into several top-grade Innate Spirit Treasures: the Heavenly Ranking (Investiture of the Gods) to establish the order of the Heavenly Dao, the Earth Book (Classic of Mountains and Seas) to record mountains, rivers, and Spirit Monsters, the Human Register (Book of Life and Death) to control the Lifespan of all beings, the map of mountains, rivers, and the state containing a realm of its own, the River Diagram and Luo Book holding the mysteries of the Innate Eight Trigrams, and the red embroidered ball to govern marriages and Karma.
The resilient lotus stem absorbed the Killing Intent of creation, transforming into the innate supreme treasure god-slaying spear, its unparalleled sharpness specializing in breaking Primordial Spirits, its attack power even surpassing the pangu banner.
The lotus pod, which supported all things, condensed into the qiankun cauldron, its body inscribed with Chaos runes, possessing the supreme power to reverse the Acquired and re-refine all things.
Only the jade disc of creation, which recorded the great Dao truths, shattered into fifty fragments under the pressure of creation, scattering into the nascent Grandmist Void Realm.
When the dust settled, in the Void Realm, Wang Lin looked at the twelve drops of pangus essence blood suspended around him—each drop containing the immense power of creation—and the three wisps of Pangu's Primordial Spirit, swirling with an ethereal glow—the Origin of the Three Pure Ones' Dharma bodies.
Coupled with the various Innate Spirit Treasures and innate supreme treasures scattered around, a fervent light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately rushed towards the Magic Treasure cluster.
He activated his Origin power, transforming it into an invisible pull, instantly drawing the four swords of immortal execution and their formation diagram, the pangu banner, the taiji diagram, the qiankun cauldron, the five directions innate banners, the five lotus platforms, and forty-nine fragments of the jade disc of creation into his Origin space.
However, the other Magic Treasures seemed to possess sentience, transforming into streaks of light and flying away.
In particular, the departure of the chaos bell and the last fragment of the jade disc of creation made it impossible for the two Chaos Supreme Treasures, which had the potential to be reunited, to reappear in a short time.
Wang Lin was so angry he almost cursed out loud, but when he saw the twelve drops of pangus essence blood and three wisps of Primordial Spirit still remaining beside him, and thought about how his younger siblings had no Magic Treasures, the disappointment in his heart slightly eased.
Just as Wang Lin's emotions settled, a thick and pure aura of profound yellow permeated the sky—this was the supreme Karma bestowed by the Dao after the creation of heaven and earth.
Moments later, a pillar of Karma light, piercing through heaven and earth, crashed down, directly towards Wang Lin.
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and he moved, crashing into the light pillar, greedily absorbing this top-tier gift from heaven and earth.
While he was fully absorbed, a majestic, enormous eye appeared in the sky.
Its gaze was indifferent yet saw through everything, and after merely glancing at Wang Lin, it slowly receded, offering no obstruction.
Wang Lin became even more unrestrained, continuing to absorb until he had taken in fifty percent of the creation Karma, only then realizing he could absorb no more—he knew this was a restriction from the Dao, likely due to him being a descendant of Pangu and the Three Thousand Demon Gods.
The remaining fifty percent of Karma found their respective destinations: ten percent of Karma merged with the Dao's profound yellow Qi, evolving into the Acquired Karma supreme treasure heaven and earth mysterious yellow exquisite pagoda, which, when suspended above one's head, made one immune to all spells.
Another ten percent of Karma combined with a wisp of primordial violet qi left by Pangu, transforming into the hongmeng heaven-measuring ruler, imbued with Grandmist Divine Might, capable of measuring heaven and earth and dispelling illusions.
Wang Lin's mind stirred, and he brought the two supreme treasures into his Origin space.
Next, ten percent of Karma flew towards the three wisps of Pangu's Primordial Spirit.
Wang Lin actively guided eighty percent of this Karma into the Primordial Spirit of Shangqing, with the remaining twenty percent going to the Primordial Spirits of Taiqing and Yuqing, laying a deep Foundation for Shangqing's future cultivation.
Fifteen percent of Karma flew towards the twelve drops of pangus essence blood; Dijiang's essence blood received two portions, Houtu's essence blood received an additional portion for a total of three, and the essence blood of the other ten Ancestral Witches each received one portion.
The final five percent of Karma transformed into countless specks of light, scattering across the newborn Grandmist heaven and earth, nourishing this land.
With the Karma distribution complete, the three wisps of Pangu's Primordial Spirit, guided by Pangu's will, transformed into streaks of light and flew towards Kunlun Mountain, the heartland of the Grandmist, which would be the place where the Three Pure Ones would later comprehend the Dao and become saints.
The twelve drops of Ancestral Witch essence blood, following an unseen guidance, flew into Pangu's divine temple deep within Mount Buzhou, awaiting the birth of the Ancestral Witches.
As for Wang Lin, he was drawn by an invisible force towards three massive Chaos fragments.
He concentrated his gaze, and the three fragments had already evolved into the three islands of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou, but they were isolated and far apart.
Wang Lin pondered for a moment, then sent out a Divine Thought: "Father God, please merge the three islands."
As soon as the Divine Thought left him, Mount Buzhou in the distance trembled violently, and the mountain body emitted a dull roar in response.
Immediately, the three islands slowly ascended into the sky, drawing closer to each other in the Void Realm, and finally collided with a thunderous sound yet remained completely intact, merging seamlessly into a new island far larger than before.
Wang Lin's figure flickered as he flew into the new island, where he saw a vast lake at its center.
The lake water was crystal clear, emanating a rich vital Qi, and was actually formed by the purest three lights divine water.
His heart filled with joy, he took out the five lotus platforms and placed them in the lake.
He then drew a portion of the Origin from the other four lotus platforms and infused it into the 24-petal jade disc of creation green lotus—with the nourishment of the three lights divine water and the assistance of the other lotus platforms' Origins, he was confident that the jade disc of creation green lotus could grow into a Chaos Supreme Treasure before the birth of the Heavenly Dao, and the other lotus platforms could also break free from the Heavenly Dao's restrictions, using the divine water to repair their Origins and return to their 12-petal state.
After settling the lotus platforms, Wang Lin did not dare to relax.
He took out the five directions innate banners and arranged them according to the Five Elements directions to set up the Innate Five Elements Great Array, enveloping the entire new island.
The Five Elements Qi circulated continuously, capable of resisting any external invasion.
He then took out the pangu banner, the taiji diagram, and the qiankun cauldron, and arranged a second layer of protection in a Three Talents formation, firmly guarding the three lights divine water lake.
This array combined the effects of breaking spells, defense, and refinement, making it impregnable.
After completing all of this, a strong wave of drowsiness swept over him.
Wang Lin knew that absorbing a large amount of creation Karma and guiding numerous supreme treasures had greatly consumed his Origin and Primordial Spirit, and this slumber would surely be long.
His gaze fell upon the 24-petal jade disc of creation green lotus in the lake, and he ultimately couldn't rest easy.
So, he separated ten percent of the creation Karma from his body and carefully infused it into the green lotus, adding a layer of protection to prevent the Heavenly Dao from prematurely forming and sending down a Lightning Tribulation to destroy the lotus.
With the final arrangements in place, Wang Lin could no longer hold on, and his consciousness gradually sank into silence.
Only a cluster of Origin power, emitting a soft glow, floated on the surface of the lake.
Meanwhile, the 24-petal jade disc of creation green lotus in the lake had already developed sentience.
Seeing Wang Lin's meticulous care for it, its petals gently unfurled, emitting a warm halo, and it actively guided that cluster of Origin power into its lotus heart for protection, entering into a long period of nurturing and nourishment together.
The seas turned into mulberry fields, and the years revolved. Three epochs passed like sand through fingers, silently flowing through the Chaos ruins at the dawn of the Great Desolation.
Deep within Three Immortals Island, the misty Chaos Spiritual Qi perpetually swirled, tightly enveloping this pure land.
Wang Lin's consciousness had been dormant for three full epochs, nourished by this Spiritual Qi, like a sleeping Chaos treasure pearl.
Finally, at a certain moment, accompanied by a faint but firm tremor, he slowly awakened.
The instant his consciousness returned, the twenty-fourth-grade Jade Green Lotus of Creation that had accompanied his slumber suddenly burst forth with light.
Over these three epochs, this lotus had absorbed the Origin essence of the other four Innate lotuses, integrated half of the great dao merit bestowed by Wang Lin, and was further nourished day and night by the unique Chaos Spiritual Qi of Three Immortals Island, completing an astonishing transformation.
Its petals, layered upon layer, now numbered thirty-six grades, each inscribed with the profound patterns of the primordial Chaos.
It had clearly become a thirty-sixth-grade chaos green lotus, exuding the suppressive Aura of a Supreme Treasure that could hold the universe in check.
Seeing Wang Lin awaken, the green lotus petals unfurled even more, and a clear lotus fragrance permeated the air, as if silently welcoming him.
Nourished by the chaos green lotus, Wang Lin felt his Origin power surge like a vast river, many times more potent than before his slumber.
Even more to his delight, due to prolonged nourishment by Chaos Spiritual Qi, rather than the common Innate Spiritual Qi of the Great Desolation, his foundation had been reshaped.
He now possessed the Bloodline of a Chaos Demon God, 親和 to the Great Dao, with subtle Great Dao rhythms flowing around him.
Once the green lotus petals were fully spread, Wang Lin slowly rose and walked to the three lights divine water lake nearby.
The lake surface was like a mirror, clearly reflecting his appearance: his Innate Dao Body was tall and slender, over seven feet in height, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, sharp yet handsome lines.
His skin was as white as snow, almost translucent under the spiritual light.
His brows were like distant Peaks, and his eyes like peach blossoms dewy, exuding an extraordinary and refined handsomeness with every glance, such that even those of the same gender would likely feel admiration.
Realizing he was naked, Wang Lin slightly raised his hand, activating the newly awakened Magic Power within him to draw in the Tai Yin moonlight from the sky.
Strands of silver radiance converged, solidifying around him into a black robe, subtly embroidered with Chaos cloud patterns, fitting his body and further accentuating his Dao charm and demeanor.
His fingertips brushed the fabric as Wang Lin introspected, clearly perceiving his stable Grand Unity Golden Immortal Peak Realm, and a surge of ecstasy filled his heart.
Such a starting point was already a rarity in the Great Desolation.
"Thank you, chaos green lotus," he said, turning to look at the blooming Supreme Treasure, his voice clear with newfound awakening.
"You're welcome," a gentle thought directly entered Wang Lin's Sea of Consciousness.
"You also helped me greatly. If not for your gift of Origin and Karma, I would never have been able to advance to the thirty-sixth-grade and achieve the status of a Chaos Supreme Treasure."
Wang Lin was startled, surprise flashing in his eyes: "chaos green lotus, you have actually given birth to consciousness?"
"Indeed," the lotus's thought carried a hint of a smile.
"I know you transferred the Origin of the other lotuses to me, and helped me transform with the Karma of creation.
I keep this kindness in my heart.
Therefore, for these three epochs, I actively nurtured you with Chaos Spiritual Qi, helping you purify pangus essence blood, and further transforming the remaining Origin of the Devouring Demon God and Origin of the Yin and Yang Demon God within you into direct insights into the Devouring Dao and Yin and Yang Dao.
Furthermore, the jade disc of creation in your Sea of Consciousness has recovered under the dual nourishment of your Origin and my Spiritual Qi, though the fragments you previously obtained were not complete, lacking a corner.
Even so, it is now a High Grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, and once the missing fragments are collected, it can return to the Realm of a Chaos Supreme Treasure."
Wang Lin was overjoyed.
He immediately probed his Sea of Consciousness and indeed saw the jade disc of creation suspended within it, its jade warm and smooth, engraved with profound Dao patterns.
The previous cracks had disappeared, and the Restrictions upon it had been completely refined.
What surprised him even more was that the Grandmist Heaven-Measuring Ruler and the heaven and earth mysterious yellow exquisite pagoda were quietly suspended in his Sea of Consciousness.
All three had become his accompanying Magic Treasures, requiring no mental effort to refine and directly usable.
Suppressing his excitement, he asked again, "Green Lotus, how long has it been since Pangu created the heavens?"
"Approximately three epochs," the lotus's thought carried a hint of vastness.
"Time is too long; I cannot be entirely certain."
Three epochs...
Wang Lin pondered, calculating that the Fierce Beast Calamity at the dawn of the Great Desolation should not have arrived yet.
His gaze swept around; Three Immortals Island was silent and empty, save for the chaos green lotus, the gurgling divine water, and abundant spiritual trees.
A thought suddenly flashed: could he be the first living being to take human form in the Great Desolation?
If so, according to the rules of the Great Dao, he might inherit most of the current Luck of the Great Desolation!
With his mind set, Wang Lin immediately acted.
He first recalled the few Magic Treasures he had used to set up a simple Formation, then raised his hand and summoned the pangu banner from his Sea of Consciousness.
It felt heavy in his hand, its surface imbued with the sharpness of creation.
His gaze fixed on a lush, verdant High Grade Spiritual Root tree nearby.
He swung the banner, and several sharp Chaos Sword Qi flew out, precisely severing a thick branch.
Then, using Magic Power as a blade, he carved the branch into suitable wooden pieces according to his design, and then assembled them using the mortise and tenon structure, which was just appearing in the Great Desolation.
In no time, a magnificent offering table, exquisitely carved and radiating a grand Aura, was formed.
Next, he took spiritual soil from Three Immortals Island, kneaded and molded it with Magic Power, and fired several smooth pottery plates and a three-legged incense burner.
Having finished these tasks, Wang Lin walked all over Three Immortals Island, finding many spiritual fruits: High Grade Spiritual Root huang zhong li, with plump, golden-hued fruits; High Grade Spiritual Root Ren Water Flat Peaches, pink and white, exuding powerful Spiritual Qi; High Grade Spiritual Root Purple Jade Grapes, a bunch with dozens of dark purple, translucent berries.
He placed four huang zhong lis and four Ren Water Flat Peaches into two separate pottery plates, then filled another plate with Purple Jade Grapes, arranging them one by one on the offering table.
He then picked three tender leaves from the huang zhong li tree, infused them with his own Spiritual Qi, and the tender leaves instantly transformed into three spiritual incenses exuding a clear fragrance.
With everything ready, Wang Lin held the three spiritual incenses and stood solemnly facing the Void Realm, his expression extremely serious.
He took a deep breath and declared in a clear voice: "Great Dao above, Father God Pangu above! Pangu's descendant, Wang Lin, takes human form and emerges today.
I thank the Great Dao for its compassion, protecting all living beings in the Great Desolation; I thank Father God for his self-sacrifice, creating the heavens and earth, and giving rise to all things.
Today, I specially set up this altar, offering meager spiritual fruits to the heavens and Father God, to express my gratitude.
May the Great Dao bear witness, and Father God bear witness!"
The moment his voice fell, a majestic vertical eye suddenly lit up in the sky—the eye of the great dao manifested!
Immediately after, brilliant light converged across the sky, and a vast and magnificent power of Karma took shape, surging and flowing like a golden river.
Moments later, the power of Karma suddenly divided: eighty percent surged like a torrent towards Wang Lin, merging into his body and Primordial Spirit, further stabilizing his Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm and intensifying the Dao rhythm around him.
Wang Lin then felt an invisible power added to him, deepening his understanding of the Great Dao, and Wang Lin knew this was the Luck of the first living being.
One and a half percent surged towards the offering table, causing it to glow with a warm golden light.
Four percent flowed towards the severed spiritual tree, helping it heal quickly and even showing signs of advancement.
The last percent drifted towards the huang zhong li tree, making its fruits even plumper.
After the Karma was distributed, the eye of the great dao did not immediately depart.
An even larger power of the Great Dao poured down, enveloping the offering table.
The altar, originally made of ordinary wood, was tempered by the power of the Great Dao, its wood grain gradually replaced by Chaos Dao patterns, and its Aura rapidly ascended.
It transformed from a Low Grade Acquired Spirit Treasure to a Medium Grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, surrounded by a profound power that could suppress Luck.
It was not until the altar was fully formed that the eye of the great dao slowly closed, receding into the Void Realm.
Just then, Mount Buzhou, at the center of the Great Desolation, suddenly trembled violently, and a blue light pierced the sky, landing directly in front of Wang Lin.
It was a banana tree with lush green leaves and rich Spiritual Qi, precisely the Innate Spiritual Root left behind by Pangu.
Wang Lin gazed at the banana tree before him, warmth surging in his heart, and once again bowed to the Void Realm, saying, "Thank you, Great Dao and Father God, for your grace."
He carefully put away the Medium Grade Chaos Spirit Treasure altar, and then planted the banana tree beside the three lights divine water lake.
Under the lake's nourishment, the banana tree instantly took root, its leaves unfurling even more.
Having completed all this, Wang Lin extended his consciousness, sensing the entire Great Desolation.
However, a dense and heart-palpitating Evil Qi suddenly flooded his perception.
It was the lingering resentment and Evil Qi from the demise of the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods, permeating the heavens and earth of the Great Desolation.
His heart tightened: The Ancestral Witches were formed from pangus essence blood, and at this moment, they were probably being disturbed by this Evil Qi.
What should be done?
"Green Lotus, this Evil Qi in the Great Desolation is so dense, is there a solution?" Wang Lin hastily asked the chaos green lotus.
The chaos green lotus glowed, and misty Spiritual Qi converged, forming a plump lotus seed in its core.
Immediately after, three lights divine water gushed out, merging into the lotus seed.
The lotus seed rapidly expanded and bloomed, transforming into a gray lotus, with twelve grades, exuding an Aura that absorbed filth, and slowly flew towards Wang Lin.
"This is the twelve-grade calamity gray lotus," the lotus's thought conveyed.
"It can absorb the resentment, malevolence, Evil Qi, and Killing Intent in the Great Desolation, and advance by doing so.
The excess 'four Qi' it absorbs will condense into lotus seeds, which can be used to refine Magic Treasures or for Body Tempering."
Wang Lin took the gray lotus; it felt warm and smooth in his hand, and he could clearly feel its characteristic of absorbing Evil Qi.
He immediately nodded with a smile: "Thank you, Green Lotus, this treasure has come at just the right time."
Wang Lin stood on the clouds, gazing at the Three Immortals Island, which was shrouded in ethereal mist all year round, his heart burning with anxiety.
The images of his younger siblings' Primordial Spirits being corroded flashed repeatedly in his mind, and their terrified, pained cries seemed to still echo in his ears.
However, this Three Immortals Island was an Innate spiritual island, its body majestic and vast like a mountain, surrounded by a spiritual light shield formed from Innate Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Ordinary Magic Treasures could not even hold a fraction of it.
If he were to abandon the island by force now, it would be extremely difficult, perhaps even impossible, to find such a Heaven and Earth-nurtured spiritual island again in the future, possibly missing it forever.
He turned to look at the chaos green lotus floating beside him.
The green lotus was entirely lustrous like jade, with faint golden Dao patterns coiling around its body.
The patterns on each petal seemed to contain the ultimate truths of Heaven and Earth, and as it gently rotated, streams of Chaos Qi slowly emanated.
Wang Lin took a deep breath, laying out the dilemma in his heart.
As soon as his voice fell, the chaos green lotus trembled slightly, and a soft yet immensely powerful green light suddenly shot out, heading straight for the bottom of the three lights divine water lake not far away.
The lake water churned violently, and golden, purple, and silver waves of divine water surged skyward.
Twelve sea-calming pearls, entirely lustrous and radiating a brilliant, star-like glow, slowly rose from the lake bottom.
Each precious pearl seemed to envelop an immeasurable ocean, with deep blue light flowing around its body, faintly revealing surging waves within, containing immense spatial power and the Law of Water.
As soon as they appeared, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi became agitated.
Wang Lin reached out and took the sea-calming pearls, feeling them cool to the touch.
A pure Law of Water surged into his body through his fingertips, causing the magic power in his Dantian to tremble slightly.
He immediately sat cross-legged, a faint golden light emanating from his body, and circulated the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Art, inherited from Pangu, to begin refining one of the sea-calming pearls.
As the Cultivation Technique operated, countless golden runes flew from his body, coiling around the sea-calming pearl and continuously permeating it.
The Restrictions on the surface of the precious pearl lit up layer by layer and then slowly dissipated.
In just a few years, all thirty-six Restrictions on the sea-calming pearl were refined, and the precious pearl became completely connected to his mind.
He could clearly perceive the vast space within the pearl.
Wang Lin suddenly stood up, gripping the hongmeng heaven-measuring ruler floating behind him.
The heaven-measuring ruler was entirely purplish-gold, its body inscribed with ancient and obscure runes.
Now, under the urging of his profound magic power, it instantly erupted with ten thousand feet of golden light, dyeing the entire sky purple.
"Open!" Wang Lin lightly shouted, his voice shaking the surrounding clouds into dispersion.
The hongmeng heaven-measuring ruler, with the might to tear apart Heaven and Earth, fiercely cleaved into the space within the sea-calming pearl.
With a thunderous roar, the Void Realm was torn apart like cloth, and a pitch-black spatial crack slowly opened.
Inside the crack was utter nothingness, with the four Origin forces of earth, fire, wind, and water colliding chaotically, as if to devour everything.
Wang Lin was prepared; he quickly conjured the taiji diagram, and as black and white Qi flowed, he steadily stabilized the earth, fire, wind, and water—a brand new Middle Thousand Worlds had taken shape, with the embryonic form of a world fully evident and Spiritual Qi gradually emerging.
He then enveloped the Three Immortals Island with his magic power, and with a thought of his Divine Thought, the massive spiritual island transformed into a stream of light, steadily falling into the Middle Thousand Worlds and perfectly merging with that realm.
The Innate Spiritual Qi around the spiritual island intertwined with the Spiritual Qi of the new world, forming a natural protective shield.
Having settled the Three Immortals Island, Wang Lin dared not delay for a moment.
He held the calamity gray lotus in his left hand and the world-purifying white lotus in his right.
The gray lotus was as black as ink, with tiny yet tyrannical Calamity Evil Qi flickering on its petals, as if it could corrode all things; the white lotus, in contrast, was pure and flawless, surrounded by Holy Light that purified all things, and wherever it passed, even the dust in the air was purified.
He stepped on auspicious multicolored clouds, his body surging with magic power, transforming into a stream of light, and sped towards the pillar of Heaven and Earth—Mount Buzhou.
A hundred years passed in a flash, and Wang Lin finally arrived at the foot of Mount Buzhou.
He gazed at the sky-supporting pillar, stretching across Heaven and Earth for hundreds of millions of miles.
The entire Mount Buzhou was filled with the lingering pressure of Great God Pangu, and the mountain rocks still bore the Dao rhyme from the time of creation.
Even though Wang Lin was at the Peak of Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation, under this pressure, he couldn't help but feel his mind tremble, filled with reverence.
He straightened his robes, took out the three lights divine water and Innate spiritual fruits he had prepared—the spiritual fruits were brightly colored, exuding rich Spiritual Qi, rare treasures in the Grandmist.
Then, he used his magic power to condense earth and stone, meticulously building an altar, and then used his own essence blood to draw a sacrificial tablet, upon which was carved the phantom of Great God Pangu.
After placing the offerings one by one on the altar, Wang Lin held incense and bowed to Mount Buzhou, burning incense and offering sacrifices, his movements pious and solemn.
After three bows and nine kowtows, Wang Lin looked up at Mount Buzhou, his voice respectful and earnest: "Wang Lin, greets Father God.
Father God, currently the Grandmist is filled with the Evil Qi of creation, and my younger siblings, as pangus essence blood descendants, are surely deeply troubled by this Evil Qi and in grave danger.
I have come to Mount Buzhou to find them and help them dispel the Evil Qi, and I hope Father God will guide me in the right direction."
As his voice fell, the Pangu phantom on the sacrificial tablet suddenly burst forth with a dazzling golden light.
The phantom slowly solidified, pointed towards the middle of Mount Buzhou, and then dissipated into specks of light.
At the same time, the pressure from Mount Buzhou that enveloped Wang Lin suddenly lessened considerably, as if it were a response from Great God Pangu.
Wang Lin's heart filled with joy, and he bowed to Mount Buzhou again in thanks, then followed the guidance and quickly flew up Mount Buzhou.
Before long, a majestic palace appeared before his eyes—it was Pangu Hall.
As soon as he stepped through the palace gates, a thick, pungent Evil Qi assaulted him.
The Evil Qi was as black as ink, carrying the violent power of creation, causing Wang Lin to frown involuntarily.
The hall was filled with dense Evil Qi of creation, and the central pangus essence blood pool glowed with a dull blood-red hue.
The twelve drops of Great God Pangu's heart essence blood in the pool had turned black, with a large amount of Evil Qi entwined within the essence blood, spreading like ink in the blood.
The Ancestral Witches' Primordial Spirits, which should have been nurtured within the essence blood and radiated brilliant light, now appeared ethereal and weak, as if they could be swallowed and dissipated by the Evil Qi at any moment.
Wang Lin investigated with his Divine Thought and found that the power of their Primordial Spirits was only forty percent of their original strength.
"Younger siblings, do not panic, I have come to help you!" Wang Lin said in a deep voice, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.
Then, he raised both hands, and the world-purifying white lotus and the calamity gray lotus simultaneously rose into the air, hovering above the blood pool.
The white lotus slowly bloomed, and a soft white light, like spring rain, sprinkled down, gently enveloping the Ancestral Witches' Physical Bodies.
The pitch-black Evil Qi clinging to their Physical Bodies instantly hissed when it encountered the white light, continuously dissipating, yet also ceaselessly surging from the essence blood.
The Evil Qi of creation was like maggots clinging to bones; to completely purify it was by no means easy.
The divine light of the world-purifying white lotus continued to purify for a long time before barely managing to turn a wisp of Evil Qi into a plume of black smoke that dissipated.
Meanwhile, the calamity gray lotus hovered above the Ancestral Witches' Primordial Spirits.
Its lotus heart slowly opened, emitting a strange yet powerful suction force, continuously drawing the Calamity Evil Qi mixed within pangus essence blood, as well as the Evil Qi permeating the hall and overflowing into the Grandmist, into the lotus.
Once absorbed into the lotus, the Evil Qi was transformed into the gray lotus's own energy, and the blackness of its body grew even deeper.
Wang Lin gazed at the Ancestral Witches' Primordial Spirits in the blood pool, resolving in his heart: no matter the cost, he must preserve the Primordial Spirits of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
An epoch slowly passed, and under the combined action of the world-purifying white lotus and the calamity gray lotus, the Evil Qi within the Ancestral Witches' bodies was finally completely removed.
However, their Primordial Spirits remained weak, their light dim, as if a gust of wind could extinguish them.
Wang Lin unhesitatingly took out the heaven and earth mysterious yellow exquisite pagoda.
The pagoda body glowed with a mysterious yellow light, exuding a profound defensive power.
He opened the pagoda lid, and the three lights divine water stored within poured out.
Golden, purple, and silver divine water intertwined, cascading like a waterfall onto the Ancestral Witches' Primordial Spirits.
This three lights divine water contained rich life Origin, which could not only repair physical injuries but also had miraculous effects on Primordial Spirit injuries.
The moment the Primordial Spirits touched the divine water, they were like a parched land meeting sweet rain, greedily absorbing the energy from the divine water.
They visibly solidified at a rapid pace, and their originally weak light gradually became brilliant, with the vitality in the hall slowly recovering as well.
Wang Lin gazed at the twelve drops of pangus essence blood suspended in the Pangu Blood Pool. The originally dark red liquid, once imbued with chilling Evil Qi, had now shed all its gloom, regaining a translucent, fresh red like morning dew. The Primordial Spirit phantom, nurtured within the essence blood, had not only fully recovered from its previous depletion due to the continuous nourishment of the three lights divine water but was also slowly expanding under the immersion of the spiritual liquid, emitting an increasingly powerful life force, clearly in a state of steady growth.
Perceiving that both pangus essence blood and the Primordial Spirit had fully recovered, Wang Lin knew that the core objective of his trip to Pangu Hall had been achieved. He no longer lingered, forming a hand seal to retrieve the world-purifying white lotus suspended within the hall, and leaving the calamity gray lotus, which could absorb calamity Evil Qi, in its original place—this lotus needed to continue being nurtured by the calamity Evil Qi from Pangu's creation of the world, and it would surely become a great help in the future. After completing all this, Wang Lin solemnly bade farewell to Great God Pangu, then turned and left Pangu Hall, bowing once more towards the towering Mount Buzhou before flying in the direction of the Netherworld Blood Sea, as remembered.
As the inheritor of Pangu's complete Legacy, the "Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Art," Wang Lin not only possessed the top-tier method for tempering the Physical Body but also the supreme secret for cultivating the Primordial Spirit. He had long set the grand aspiration of "cultivating three thousand Laws simultaneously," and the jade disc of creation he carried with him was precisely the most powerful aid for comprehending Laws—this disc recorded the Three Thousand Great Daos and could deduce the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, allowing him to comprehend Laws at a speed far exceeding other Cultivators of the same level. As Wang Lin sped towards the northwest, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: the Wuyi Mountain Dahongpao Mother Tree was a rare treasure for comprehending the Dao in the Primordial World, second only to the jade disc of creation. If he could obtain the assistance of this tree, coupled with the effects of the jade disc of creation, the efficiency of comprehending Laws would undoubtedly reach a higher level.
With a thought, Wang Lin immediately stopped, forming hand seals to activate the jade disc of creation. The jade disc floated in mid-air, its surface covered with flowing runes, and beams of profound light shot towards the sky, deducing the precise location of Wuyi Mountain in mere moments. Following the guidance of the jade disc, Wang Lin transformed into a streak of light and soared through the air, and before long, he saw a range of mountains shrouded in mist—the Spiritual Qi here was so dense it was almost tangible, far beyond what ordinary mountain ranges could compare to, clearly indicating that this was Wuyi Mountain.
To avoid acting like a headless fly, Wang Lin did not rush in. Instead, he circulated his Primordial Spirit to carefully sense the heaven and earth, only to discover that the entire Wuyi Mountain was enveloped by an invisible Formation, with extremely subtle spatial fluctuations. He no longer hesitated, fully activating the jade disc of creation. The jade disc emitted a soft yet highly penetrating Divine Might, striking directly at a hidden corner on the mountainside of Wuyi Mountain. As the Divine Might descended, subtle ripples appeared in the space there, and the outline of the Formation faintly emerged.
Wang Lin's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He approached, guided by the Divine Might, while simultaneously circulating the "Law of the Great Dao of Formations" recorded in the jade disc of creation. As the Law power flowed, the originally hidden Formation patterns gradually became clear. With the deductive power of the jade disc, he quickly pinpointed the core Formation eye. Without any extra movements, Wang Lin channeled the Magic Power within his body, transforming it into a condensed pillar of light that blasted towards the Formation eye. With a soft "buzz," the Formation barrier shattered, and a blessed land radiating Innate Spiritual Qi appeared before him.
The moment he stepped into the blessed land, dense Innate Spiritual Qi rushed towards him. Wang Lin looked around and saw lush vegetation within the Small World, with several Low Grade innate spiritual root growing quietly, nourished by the Spiritual Qi—one must know that after the end of the Lich Calamity, innate spiritual root had become almost extinct. After the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, even Acquired High Grade Spiritual Roots were extremely rare, making these Low Grade innate spiritual root truly precious treasures.
Wang Lin did not rush to collect the Spiritual Roots. Instead, he followed the source of the denser Spiritual Qi and saw an ancient-looking tea tree growing on the mountaintop in the center of the blessed land—it was the Dahongpao Mother Tree he had come to find. He flashed before the tea tree, his gaze suddenly drawn to an object hanging from its branches: a jade basin carved with cloud patterns, within which lay a golden-yellow copper coin.
Wang Lin reached out and picked up the jade basin and copper coin. As his spiritual power entered them, he instantly understood their Origins. The jade basin was actually the High Grade Innate Spirit Treasure "treasure gathering basin," possessing the Divine Might to gather and suppress the wandering Luck of heaven and earth; and the copper coin was the High Grade Innate Spirit Treasure "Treasure Dropping Golden Coin," which displayed great Divine Might during the Investiture of the Gods—with the Luck gathered by the treasure gathering basin, one could activate the Treasure Dropping Golden Coin without burden, specifically to drop others' Magic Treasures. Any Magic Treasure below an innate supreme treasure could be dropped, making it a supreme Sharp Weapon for combat. Unexpectedly obtaining these two Supporting facilities Magic Treasures, Wang Lin could not hide his joy and carefully placed them into his Sea of Consciousness space for safekeeping. Although these two Magic Treasures were of little use to him personally, the treasure gathering basin could be used to suppress the Luck of the Witch Tribe or Tongtian.
Gazing at the Dahongpao Mother Tree before him, radiating dense Dao charm and fragrance, his Primordial Spirit instantly became clear. Wang Lin knew that this tree was highly spiritual, and even a slight mistake could damage its Origin. After a moment of thought, he decided to move the entire mountaintop. Wang Lin took out the refined sea calming divine pearls, and after injecting Magic Power, the treasure pearls floated above the mountaintop, emitting a powerful spatial suction that slowly drew the mountaintop, bearing the mother tree, into the Middle Thousand Worlds within the treasure pearls. "For now, you will have to endure growing here. When I gather the Origin of the Great Yin and Great Yang and the Five Elements Spiritual Pearls in the future, and with the help of the four symbols banana tree, I will evolve complete Yin and Yang and Five Elements within the Middle Thousand Worlds of the sea calming divine pearls, and I will surely find a more suitable residence for you." Wang Lin whispered to the treasure pearls, then turned to begin collecting the other Low Grade innate spiritual root within the blessed land—although these Spiritual Roots were not of High Grade, Wang Lin gazed at the Low Grade innate spiritual root within the sea-calming pearls' space. Although their grade was not as high as top-tier Spirit Treasures, their purpose was already clearly planned in his mind. These Spiritual Roots were excellent material for decorating the Middle Thousand Worlds within the sea-calming pearls—in the future, transplanting them to the mountains and lakesides of the Small World would not only make the space more vibrant but also further nourish the Small World with the Spiritual Qi from the Spiritual Roots. More importantly, they also held a key role in restoring the Western Continent.
One must know that even Low Grade innate spiritual root inherently possess the Innate characteristic of suppressing earth veins. Wang Lin had long foreseen the future Conflict between Dao and Demon. In the future, Rahu would be defeated by the combined forces of Hongjun, Yin Yang, Qiankun, and Old Ancestor Yang Mei. Rahu would self-detonate, destroying the earth veins of the Western Continent, and massive Karma would descend. Since Yin Yang and Qiankun were already dead, and Yang Mei had fled into Chaos, Hongjun would bear all the Karma. The Karma was too great, preventing his Three Corpses from merging and him from achieving the Dao of Hunyuan. He could only become a Saint by leveraging the Heavenly Dao Karma and Luck from the Dragon-Han Calamity's Conflict between Dao and Demon. At that time, he could take the Ancestor Witches, Sect Master Tongtian, and Zhenyuanzi, among others, to the West. With Zhenyuanzi's Earth Book, they would sort out the earth veins, and then plant these innate spiritual root on the damaged Spiritual Vein nodes—where the Spiritual Roots took root, the damaged earth veins would gradually stabilize, and the depleted Spiritual Qi would also revive, allowing the desolate West to regain its vitality.
Thinking of this, a cold arc appeared at the corner of Wang Lin's mouth. The Two Sages of the West, Jieyin and Zhunti, could only become Saints because they were the last hope for the Western Luck after the West was shattered, bearing the Luck and Karma of the entire West. But if the vitality of the Western Continent was restored by him and his younger siblings, and the earth veins were re-suppressed by these innate spiritual root, then what right did the so-called "Western Saint position" have to fall into the hands of Jieyin and Zhunti again? The vast majority of the Western Luck would undoubtedly be bestowed upon the Pangu Lineage. In this game concerning the Luck of the Primordial World, he had quietly laid a crucial piece.
After thoroughly sweeping through the blessed Small World and confirming there were no omissions, Wang Lin put away the sea calming divine pearls, and his figure once again transformed into a streak of light, speeding towards the Netherworld Blood Sea.
