Ascending Buzhou Mountain's Summit, Pangu's Inheritance, Breakthrough to Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal

But just as Red Sparrow was about to take a step forward, she could not bring herself to set foot on it.

She turned back, her brows tightly furrowed as she looked at Chi Yu with grievance.

"Master! I can't accompany you any farther. Sparrow is too weak!"

Chi Yu stroked her head.

"It's fine! Sit here and meditate while you wait for This Seat!"

Red Sparrow nodded helplessly.

Chi Yu easily continued climbing.

No years were counted in the Primordial World.

He only knew that this climb had lasted a long time, but he had no concept of exactly how long.

Chi Yu stopped and let out a breath.

He clenched his fist, feeling that his physical body had grown much stronger. Yet the shackles of the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal Peak were like an uncrossable chasm, distant and unreachable!

"Alas! Perhaps the time has not yet come!"

Gazing at the Buzhou Mountain summit not far above him, Chi Yu felt at peace.

After meditating for a while, he continued climbing toward the summit.

Meanwhile, Red Sparrow encountered a small problem.

That day,

Red Sparrow had just finished meditating and was about to get up and stretch her limbs.

At that moment, a white-haired old man brimming with Immortal Qi arrived before her.

"This old daoist is Hongjun. Greetings, Fellow Daoist!"

Red Sparrow shot him a disdainful glance and thought,

Oh! So this Old Man is the Hongjun Master always talks about? He doesn't seem like much!

"Mm."

Seeing how arrogant and impolite Red Sparrow was, Hongjun immediately felt rather displeased.

"This old daoist sees Fellow Daoist meditating here alone. Could you be an Innate God born in this place?"

"Mm."

Red Sparrow remained disdainful.

"May I ask for Fellow Daoist's honored title?"

"This old daoist has only just arrived! Seeing that Fellow Daoist possesses extraordinary talent, this old daoist's meager strength should be enough to offer you some guidance."

Hongjun saw that Red Sparrow's origins were extraordinary, and he gradually developed the intention of subduing her.

Red Sparrow burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! You old daoist are quite amusing. With your meager strength, you actually dare dream of guiding This Seat?"

Hongjun froze, then shook his head.

"I see that Fellow Daoist is merely at the Daluo Golden Immortal Peak. Why can't this old daoist, at the Quasi-Saint Peak, guide you?"

"Get lost, Old Man. Don't make This Seat beat you!"

Hongjun's anger immediately became difficult to suppress.

"I say, Fellow Daoist, this old daoist wishes to guide you out of appreciation for your talent. Isn't your behavior rather inappropriate?"

"Are you done yet? Get lost and stop disturbing This Seat's cultivation!"

Red Sparrow then stepped aside, sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes, and prepared to cultivate.

Hongjun was thoroughly enraged. He was, after all, one of the Primordial World's peak great powers and the future first Saint. When had he ever suffered such contempt?

He summoned the All Heavens Celebration Cloud and prepared to forcibly subdue Red Sparrow.

"Hmph! Since you cannot become this old daoist's disciple, you can become this old daoist's traveling mount instead!"

Hearing this, Red Sparrow hurriedly rose to her feet.

"You old daoist are completely unreasonable. Is this how you forcibly take disciples?"

"Do you know who This Seat is? You dare attack This Seat and even dream of forcibly subduing me?"

Upon hearing this, Hongjun hesitated.

"Hmph! If you know what's good for you, vanish from before This Seat's eyes at once! Move it!"

"May I ask where Fellow Daoist comes from?"

"Hmph! Saying it might scare you to death!"

Hongjun was stunned!

"This Seat is Red Sparrow, the traveling mount under the War-ending Sect's leader on Floating Pagoda Island, deeply favored by him! Are you sure you want to forcibly subdue This Seat?"

Hongjun was shocked!

"The War-ending Sect's leader?"

"Could it be the Azure Dust Battle Ancestor?"

"Who else could it be?"

Hongjun hesitated, then bowed deeply!

"I have disturbed Fellow Daoist. This old daoist shall leave at once."

Hongjun knew of Chi Yu's strength. He was only at the Quasi-Saint Peak now; going against a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal would be no different from courting death.

With so much time ahead of him and his dream still unfulfilled, he did not dare act so rashly.

Regarding the Primordial World's first Saint, he had previously asked the Heavenly Dao. Since Chi Yu had attained the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm, no merit had descended upon him. Hongjun, who had originally given up completely, immediately felt relieved.

This old daoist is still the Primordial World's first Saint.

"Wait!"

Hongjun, who was about to leave, froze and turned to look at Red Sparrow.

"May I ask what else Fellow Daoist requires?"

"What? You think you can just leave after offending This Seat? Shouldn't you offer some compensation?"

She then looked toward Hongjun's All Heavens Celebration Cloud!

"This Seat thinks that thing is quite good. Give it to This Seat as compensation, and this karma will be settled."

Hongjun's face darkened, but an idea suddenly struck him.

"Fellow Daoist does not know that this is this poor Daoist's companion treasure. Even if I gave it to you, you would not be able to use it!"

Red Sparrow bit her finger and nodded.

"How about this? This old daoist will give you an innate spiritual root instead."

Hongjun took out the Ren Water Peach Tree and handed it to Red Sparrow.

"Hm? You think a mere innate spiritual root is enough to dismiss This Seat?"

"Fellow Daoist does not know! This is a top-grade innate spiritual root. Once it bears fruit, its peaches have miraculous effects on both cultivation and vitality."

When Red Sparrow heard that it had miraculous effects on cultivation, she relented.

"Mm! Fine! You may leave!"

Hongjun nodded, turned around, and vanished from before Red Sparrow.

"Hongjun? That's it?"

What she did not know was that, if Hongjun had not feared Chi Yu, with his temperament, he would have long since taken her in.

And she still dared to prattle on here with that arrogant face.

After putting away the Ren Water Peach Tree, Red Sparrow continued cultivating cross-legged with her eyes closed.

Time Light flew by.

Chi Yu finally reached the summit of Buzhou Mountain.

The place was filled with mist. It lacked the sacred majesty he had imagined and instead gave off a faintly eerie air!

He waved his hand, intending to disperse the mist, but it could not be fully cleared. Moments later, it gathered again.

Chi Yu's brows furrowed tightly!

He was a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal mid-stage expert, yet he could not even disperse this trifling mist?

Suddenly, he thought of something.

"Has This Seat entered an array the moment I stepped onto the top level?"

He carefully sensed it and found that it was indeed so!

"Good grief! This Seat's luck...!"

After studying it for a while, he found this array exceptionally powerful. It might take many days before he could break it!

It was several times stronger and several times more complex than both Hunyuan Heaven-Filling and Hunyuan Perception-Trapping!

"But This Seat has a system!"

He waited for a long time, yet the system made no sound at all!

Chi Yu smiled helplessly.

"Perhaps the time has not yet come again, or perhaps my cultivation is insufficient!"

The same thing had happened back on Floating Pagoda Island, so he accepted it calmly.

He no longer relied on the system and quickly entered meditation to study the array!

No years were counted in the Primordial World!

This period of comprehension lasted roughly three thousand years.

Chi Yu had comprehended only ten percent of it.

That day,

The system's voice, silent for a long time, finally rang out.

Ding! Detected that the host is currently in battle with a hostile enemy!

Enemy: Chaos Subduing Heaven Grand Array

No matter how strong he is, you are stronger!

Congratulations to the host for obtaining 20% control over Chaos Law

Law of Force 30%

Slaughter Law 50% (currently 60%)

Formation Dao Laws control 30% (currently 35%).

Chi Yu froze, then burst into laughter!

"Hahahaha!"

"This Seat finally has the Law of Force!"

Feeling the Law of Force on his fist, Chi Yu instantly felt that, at this very moment, he could shatter half the Primordial World with a single punch.

After his excitement subsided, Chi Yu continued studying the array.

Another thousand years passed in an instant!

Bang!

The array shattered, the mist dispersed, and the inheritance appeared!

At the center stood four enormous pillars. Strange phenomena surrounded them, and the power of laws was several times stronger than elsewhere, making him feel as though he were within Chaos.

Suddenly,

Four holy beams of light shone upon Chi Yu at once. He felt warm and comfortable all over, letting out a faint strange sound as he tightly closed his eyes and his consciousness entered an unfamiliar space.

Outside,

Chi Yu returned to his true form of dust and drifted toward the center of the four enormous pillars.

If Chi Yu woke at this moment, he would surely be greatly shocked.

What was going on? Where was This Seat's Innate Dao Body? Where was This Seat's handsome Innate Dao Body?

Before long,

The consciousness within the Special Space suddenly opened its eyes.

"Where is This Seat?"

"Young man, you're awake!"

A majestic, empty, and deep voice entered Chi Yu's ears, causing him to freeze!

"Who?"

Then, the phantom of a towering, mighty giant with two horns on his head and a sacred, imposing aura appeared before Chi Yu.

Thinking of Pangu's image from the Primordial World novels of his previous life, he was instantly shocked.

"Y-You are Great God Pangu?"

The Pangu Phantom smiled faintly and nodded.

Chi Yu composed himself, then bowed deeply!

"Junior Chi Yu pays respects to Great God Pangu!"

"Hahaha! Not bad! You are quite polite! Rise!"

Chi Yu then looked at the Pangu Phantom in confusion.

"If you have any questions, little brother, ask away!"

The Pangu Phantom had seen through Chi Yu's confusion.

"May I ask, Great God, have you not fallen?"

The Pangu Phantom nodded meaningfully, then shook his head.

"I have fallen, yet I have not fallen!"

Chi Yu froze!

"What does that mean?"

"Hahahaha! What fell was merely one of This Seat's avatars within Chaos! My true body has not fallen!"

Chi Yu stared at the Pangu Phantom in shock.

"This... this... this..."

"Hahahaha! No matter! You simply have not reached my realm yet. Once you do, you will naturally understand!"

Then the Pangu Phantom looked at Chi Yu and nodded in satisfaction.

"Mm! Not bad! A Chaos Godfiend Peak root grade, yet you have comprehended over two thousand Dao Laws and mastered several of them! Your cultivation has even broken through to the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal mid-stage, while your physical body is about to break through to the Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal."

Panic rose in Chi Yu's heart!

Could he have seen that I have a system?

"Hahahaha! Little brother, do not panic! Everything follows cause and effect, and everyone has their own opportunities. They cannot be forced. Besides, with This Seat's current cultivation, an opportunity like yours is of no use to me."

"Was that really so?"

In truth, Chi Yu had misunderstood. What the Pangu Phantom sensed were the Void Bracelet and the Three Lights Divine Water on him. As for the system, with Pangu's current cultivation, he was still a hundred and eight thousand miles away from detecting it!

"Little brother, This Seat's phantom is about to dissipate, so I will not speak much more with you!"

"Next, watch carefully!"

Chi Yu widened his eyes, staring at the Pangu Phantom as though unwilling to miss a single detail.

"Cha!"

"Cleave!"

"Hook!"

"Open!"

Pangu Splitting Heaven, Dancing Wind!

~

A moment later,

The Pangu Phantom pointed a finger, and a beam of divine light shot into Chi Yu's mind.

Chi Yu was overjoyed, then bowed once more!

"Thank you, Great God, for bestowing this technique!"

"Hahahaha! No matter! Young man, I think highly of you."

"I will await your arrival in that Primordial place~"

"Hahahaha!"

Then the Pangu Phantom dissipated!

Chi Yu's consciousness returned to his body.

But as he sensed his own body, Chi Yu felt that something was wrong.

At that moment, the system's voice rang out!

Ding! Detected that the host is currently in battle with an enemy!

Enemy: Pangu Phantom (Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal Peak.)

Chaos Grand Heaven Array

Pangu Axe Phantom

He may be strong, but you are stronger!
