The Might of Da Luo

At the mountainside of Buzhou Mountain, the Innate Divine Saints kept one another in check. No great battle over treasures broke out, and each took a gourd.

After all six Innate Divine Saints had taken their gourds, the remaining blue gourd turned into a streak of white light and vanished.

"This is the seed of a spiritual root; it cannot all be taken." Grand Pure Daoist performed a divination with his fingers. Da Luo Divine Saints in the present Primordial Wilderness were nearly omniscient.

Of course, there were far too many omniscient people in the Primordial Wilderness. If someone deliberately concealed something, it came down to each person's abilities.

"This Gourd Vine and the Innate Five-Colored Breathing Soil seem fated for me, so I shall take them." Nuwa looked toward the other Innate Divine Saints.

Everyone performed their own calculations and found that the Gourd Vine was indeed destined to fall into Nuwa's hands. As for the Innate Five-Colored Breathing Soil, though it was the best choice for cultivating spiritual roots, it was not worth offending Nuwa over it.

Nuwa raised her hand and put away the two items, joy appearing on her face. Who did not like opportunities that fell from the heavens?

Yet in a certain instant, Nuwa's expression changed, and she sharply turned to look east.

At that moment, through the Great Luo Divine Mystery, she directly crossed the endless Primordial Wilderness and arrived on Penglai Immortal Island.

"Teacher." Fang Xun stood off to one side with an innocent expression.

Nuwa shot Fang Xun an irritated glare. On her way over, she had already learned the course of events through the Yinguo connection between herself and Fang Xun.

Fine then. I let you travel the Primordial Wilderness so you could witness its horrors and cruelty firsthand, so you would stop entertaining all those wild thoughts and stay home to cultivate honestly until Taiyi before going out again...

But this journey through the Primordial Wilderness of yours was a little too exciting—finding an immortal island, fighting Randeng, undergoing the Golden Immortal Tribulation...

And how was Randeng Daoist this weak? He was simply a disgrace to the Innate Divine Saints!

"Ahem, Teacher, Penglai Immortal Island is quite good. It is more than sufficient to serve as your New Dao Field."

Fang Xun also took out the Pure Yang Immortal Sword and pointed at the Pure Yang Immortal Tree and the branch of the Sky-Connecting Jianmu Tree.

"It has an Innate Spiritual Treasure, as well as these two Innate Spiritual Roots."

"...Not bad." Nuwa glanced around and nodded slightly. Xuansu had a good eye; Penglai Immortal Island was also one of the foremost blessed lands in the Primordial Wilderness.

"Let me deal with East King Duke first." Nuwa gave a light snort and reached out, drawing over the Realm Bead that Fang Xun had already refined. Looking outside, her voice turned cold.

"East King Duke? Why have you trespassed into my Dao Field?"

With his Opportunity for Enlightenment stolen and fury rising in his heart, East King Duke's brow twitched as an ominous feeling welled up within him.

"Dao Friend Nuwa?!"

Looking at Nuwa before him, who had manifested her Innate Dao Body, he suddenly felt that he had come too hastily.

Yet his gaze shifted, and he spotted the Pure Yang Immortal Sword.

His breathing hitched slightly. The sword exuded Dao Rhyme as blazing as the Sun Star, perfectly matching his own Dao. Though he had already become Da Luo, obtaining this sword would still make him even more formidable!

After that, he sensed the Pure Yang Immortal Tree, which suited him even better. So long as he refined that Innate Spiritual Root, he was confident that he could contend in Dao with any Innate Divine Saint other than Nuwa!

His instincts had not been wrong. This truly was his Opportunity for Enlightenment!

"Dao Friend Nuwa, Heaven's secrets have revealed that this immortal island is my Opportunity for Enlightenment. Why do you occupy my Dao Field?"

East King Duke ultimately could not bear to give up the opportunity within reach, and his status as a Great Luo Supreme did not permit him to retreat.

"What revelation of Heaven's Dao?" Nuwa tilted her head, as though sensing something. "It seems Dao Friend has sensed incorrectly. This is ownerless land, and I merely arrived by chance and incorporated this immortal island into the scope of my Dao Field."

"You!" East King Duke's pupils contracted sharply. In the instant Nuwa tilted her head, Heaven's secrets changed!

Nuwa had altered reality through her own Great Luo Divine Mystery!

After Innate Divine Saints attained the rank of Great Luo Supreme, their Dao became part of the Primordial Wilderness Heavenly Dao. This granted them a certain degree of "Heavenly Dao authority."

Nuwa had used her Heavenly Dao authority to forcibly alter Heaven's secrets, completely severing East King Duke's connection with Penglai Immortal Island!

Altering reality and changing Heaven's secrets were methods possessed by all Great Luo Supremes, but as always, it ultimately depended on one's ability.

The current situation was that Nuwa had directly crushed East King Duke's reality with her own Heavenly Dao authority!

"You go too far!" East King Duke had only just attained the Great Luo Dao Fruit. When had he ever suffered such humiliation?

An Innate Spiritual Treasure-grade longsword suddenly appeared in East King Duke's hand, and he unleashed his Great Luo Dao Rhyme without further restraint.

In an instant, it was as though the Sun Star, formed from Great God Pangu's eye, had descended upon Penglai Immortal Island. Boundless heat surged in from every corner of Time-Space; whoever touched it would be burned away through past and future alike!

Before the true might of a Great Luo Supreme, even the boundless, vast heaven and earth of the Primordial Wilderness had to pale!

Taiyi Golden Immortals possessed their own "raft to cross the world" within the endless Sea of Suffering, while Great Luo Supremes were those who had truly reached the shore. Their Great Dao merged with the Primordial Wilderness, and their wills truly possessed Heavenly Dao Majesty.

To a Golden Immortal like Fang Xun, still struggling in the Sea of Suffering and able only to find the Purity of "a single boat," a Great Luo will was equivalent to the Heavenly Dao.

East King Duke's rage was likewise equivalent to the Purple Sky Divine Thunder from before!

"Are you scared now?" Nuwa turned to Fang Xun.

Under such might, Fang Xun's body had tensed, his thoughts nearly completely frozen, locked in Time-Space.

After Nuwa spoke, the abnormal state upon him dissipated, and his face was full of the relief of having survived a calamity.

"I understand." Fang Xun obediently satisfied his Teacher Nuwa's sense of accomplishment as a teacher.

"Since you understand, do not provoke Great Luo Supremes next time. I may not be able to protect you in time." Nuwa nodded in satisfaction before finally turning toward East King Duke.

With Nuwa's interference, Fang Xun's thoughts could now even keep up with Great Luo Supremes, allowing him to fully experience the profundity and terror of the Great Luo Dao Realm.

The other Great Luo Supremes also sensed the enormous commotion here.

These Great Luo Supremes who had departed Purple Sky Palace discovered the battle at once and watched with considerable curiosity.

Since the last Tribulation, this was the first battle to erupt between Great Luo Supremes.

"Why are you so stubborn, Dao Friend?"

Nuwa seemed to sigh softly. She completely ignored East King Duke's Great Luo might and slowly beckoned, causing the Yin Yang Creation Mirror to fall into her fair jade hand.

"Yin Yang Creation Divine Light."

In Nuwa's hands, the Yin Yang Creation Mirror presented an entirely different sight. The black-and-white Yin-Yang Fish upon it came fully alive, circling Nuwa at high speed before entering another layer of heaven and earth.

Yin-Yang reached its ultimate limit, and the Dao of Creation was born!

The Yin Yang Creation Mirror became resplendent and razor-sharp. A misty divine light shot into the heavens, tearing apart the Dao Domain formed by East King Duke's Great Luo might.

Misty Clear Light began to evolve. All things were born through it, perished through it, flourished through it, and declined through it. It covered the River of Time!

"Creation, creation..." Nuwa's admiring voice seemed to echo beside the ears of every Great Luo Supreme.
