Space-Time Heavenly Curtain, Alarming the Primordial Wilderness!

The first to sense this Heaven and Earth Phenomenon and aura was Jade Pool.

She had been sitting cross-legged outside the main hall in Dharma Protector position, and when she looked up to see the Space-Time Heavenly Curtain in the sky, her eyes snapped open.

A joyful smile instantly bloomed on her elegant face, and even a hint of glistening moisture appeared in her eyes.

She rose and gazed toward the main hall, her hands unconsciously clenching as she murmured to herself.

"Senior Brother... has truly broken through! Such a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon—this is indeed the bearing of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin!"

This excitement far surpassed any advancement in her own cultivation, for ever since they were born together from chaos.

She and Haotian had long shared a bond of heart and mind; every step of his growth brought her more peace than her own breakthroughs.

"This... this is the aura of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin! And such a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon..."

On the other side of Penglai Immortal Island, Taibai Jinxing was tallying the roster of newly ascended cultivators.

When he looked up and saw the Space-Time Heavenly Curtain and the pillar of spiritual light on the sea surface, the peachwood whisk in his hand suddenly dropped to the ground.

His aged face was filled with disbelief and excitement, then he quickly recovered and called out loudly.

"Fellow Daoists! Quickly, follow me to congratulate the Sacred Lord! Such a phenomenon is the fortune of the Primordial Wilderness!"

The news spread through Penglai like thunder. Hundreds of Great Luo Golden Immortals set aside their tasks, leading a host of Taiyi and Golden Immortals, and spontaneously lined up to bow toward the main hall.

One of them, a former rogue cultivator who had reached Great Luo, spoke with a trembling voice: "That we can follow a Zenith Heaven mighty one who stirs such a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon—I have no regrets in this life!"

The others echoed in agreement, then shouted in unison: "Greetings to the Sacred Lord! Congratulations to the Sacred Lord on attaining the Zenith Heaven Dao!"

"All may rise." Haotian's voice reached everyone's ears through the laws, gentle yet carrying an undeniable authority.

As the words fell, everyone felt a gentle force lift them up, deepening their reverence for this newly ascended Sacred Lord.

A mighty one who could summon the Space-Time Heavenly Curtain and make the stars resonate was no ordinary Zenith Heaven.

At this moment, the Primordial Wilderness was already in an uproar over this phenomenon and aura.

On the battlefield of the Witch-Demon Two Clans, the fighting had been raging fiercely moments before.

The Great Witches of the Witch Clan swung bone staffs, drawing on the power of the earth to smash the Demon Clan's formations.

The Star Generals of the Demon Clan manipulated starlight, condensing it into arrows that shot toward the Witch Clan. Corpses littered the ground, Sha Qi surged to the heavens, and even space was cracked from the battle.

But when Haotian's aura and the residual waves of the Space-Time Heavenly Curtain spread here, the dense Sha Qi was instantly suppressed.

The soldiers of both Witch and Demon clans, locked in slaughter, suddenly froze as if an invisible hand had gripped their throats.

A few Demon Clan soldiers with lower cultivation even experienced a brief stasis in their forms from contact with the Time-Space Law in the residual waves, only returning to normal after a long moment.

Dijiang had already gathered Space Law, preparing to use spatial tearing to cripple the Demon Clan's rear.

But feeling the familiar spatial fluctuations in the aura and catching a glimpse of the faint two-colored curtain on the distant horizon, the law fluctuations around his body suddenly became chaotic, and his movements froze in place.

He abruptly looked up toward the East Sea, his six legs trembling slightly, shock filling his eyes.

"This... this is a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin? And he controls Time-Space Law? How is that possible!"

Taiyi gripped the Eastern Emperor Bell tightly, intending to activate the power of the Innate Supreme Treasure to break through the Witch Clan's defenses.

But the moment the aura descended, the Eastern Emperor Bell emitted a buzzing sound.

Even cracks appeared on the bell's surface. Following Dijiang's gaze toward the East Sea, though he couldn't see the complete Space-Time Heavenly Curtain, he could feel the bone-deep pressure of the law. His face turned pale, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and for the first time, a sense of powerlessness arose in his heart.

Just one realm apart, and the gap was this vast? Even Heaven and Earth had sent down a phenomenon for him!

Not only the Witch-Demon Two Clans, but mighty figures across the Primordial Wilderness were stirred by this phenomenon and aura.

On Kunlun Mountain, Laozi, Venerable Yuanshi, and Sect Master Tongtian stood side by side.

The three, not yet separated, shared the same Dao field, their bodies surrounded by the same Mystic Gate Dao Rhythm.

All three looked up toward the East Sea. Though separated by a vast distance, they could clearly sense the fluctuations of Time-Space Law on the curtain.

Grand Pure One Laozi slowly opened his eyes, the Taiji Diagram in his hand turning slightly, emitting a soft white light that offset the pressure from outside, and he sighed softly.

"Junior Brother Haotian has attained the Dao first, and even stirred such a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon... A blessing for the Mystic Gate, and also for the Primordial Wilderness."

Yuanshi frowned slightly, his gaze piercing through the Dao field's barrier toward the East Sea, a trace of complexity in his eyes.

"Able to control Time-Space Law and stir the resonance of the stars—with such exceptional talent and our master's regard, Junior Brother's future is boundless."

As for Tongtian, he burst into loud laughter. "Good! What a fine Junior Brother Haotian! Breaking through so decisively, even Heaven and Earth cheer for him!"

In Wa Palace, Nuwa set down the yellow clay she was kneading, looked up toward the East Sea, and a hint of relief showed in her eyes.

"With a mighty one like Junior Brother Haotian, who can stir Heaven and Earth Phenomenon, guarding the Primordial Wilderness, it should usher in a period of peace."

In the barren lands of the West, Jieyin and Zhunti stood side by side.

Zhunti clenched his Prayer Beads tightly, gazing at the faint spiritual light on the eastern horizon, his eyes full of envy and resentment.

"Both disciples of the Mystic Gate, yet Senior Brother Haotian attained the Dao first and received such favor from Heaven and Earth... When will the West's opportunity come?"

Jieyin sighed, his voice low. "The Heavenly Dao has its fixed course; we need only hold fast."

Zhunti nodded, and the two then calmed their minds and continued their contemplation.

Across the Primordial Wilderness, aside from the thick-skinned Witch Clan who revered only Pangu, all other races bowed toward the East Sea and shouted in unison: "We pay homage to the Saint Lord, and congratulate the Saint Lord on attaining the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin!"

Even the Witch Clan reined in their edge at this moment.

The flames around Zhurong dimmed considerably, Gonggong ceased stirring the river waters, and the cold breath exhaled by Xuanming quietly dissipated.

Though they were unwilling to bow their heads, they understood clearly that any being capable of stirring such a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon, if they chose to act, would leave the Witch Clan unable to gain an advantage even with their hidden trump cards.

Inside the main hall of Penglai Immortal Island, Haotian slowly opened his eyes, the flowing light of the Time-Space Law within them gradually calming.

He raised a hand to feel the surging power within his body, then looked out the window at the Space-Time Heavenly Curtain that had yet to fully dissipate, a faint smile curling at the corner of his lips.

So this was the power of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin—stronger than he had imagined, with even Heaven and Earth responding to it.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother, on your breakthrough! Such a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon—it's truly astonishing!"

The hall's door was gently pushed open as Jade Pool lifted her skirt and hurried in, her tone brimming with joy she couldn't hide, her gaze toward Haotian full of admiration.

Haotian rose, reached out, and gently rubbed the top of her head, his voice warm.

"Junior Sister, there's no need to envy me. Your talent is extraordinary, and with the nourishment of the Ren Water Flat Peach."

"In time, you will surely break through to the Zenith Heaven. When that day comes, your Heaven and Earth Phenomenon may not be inferior to mine."

"Mm!" Jade Pool nodded firmly, a fighting spirit igniting in her eyes.

Just then, a streak of emerald light flew in from the direction of Chaos, slowly descending to the center of the hall.

It was a Purple Bamboo Staff, entirely verdant, its body wrapped in a dense Dao Rhythm—one of Hongjun's companion spiritual treasures.

Immediately after, Hongjun's aged and authoritative voice echoed through the hall.

"Disciple, this farce between the Witch-Demon Two Clans must come to an end."

"Go in my stead and have the two clans return to their proper places. Within ten thousand Yuanhui, no further conflict shall arise."
