Supreme

"Was that really how it was?"

In Yi Jing Lou, Hong Yi remained dazed for a long time. The shock he had felt from Pangu battered his soul.

It had been a long time since he had been moved like this.

"So Pangu was supreme. Of course, so was the Primordial Wilderness."

Hong Yi collected himself, reached for paper and brush, and recorded all the insights he had gained this time, preparing to reorganize and rewrite the Book of Changes.

At this moment, Fang Xun had already shared everything Hong Yi had experienced with the Chat Group.

For a time, no one spoke as they sorted through their thoughts.

Hong Yi: "Everyone, be prepared. If you want to come to the Primordial Wilderness, you'll probably have to go to the Source of Time and take that axe strike."

Hong Yi: "Don't worry. I tested it myself. It doesn't hurt, and it's quite fast."

It was so fast that he had not even reacted before his identity authentication was complete. Then he had been sent back to the current point in time, with the Timeline overwritten in passing.

Ye Fan: "I didn't expect the authentication method to be like this—integrating into the Primordial Wilderness as a Chaos Demon God."

Meng Qi: "Heh, I wonder whether I'll get chopped if I go back. In terms of Yinguo, I'm practically his biological son."

Meng Qi's Three Pure Ones Unity made him more Three Pure Ones than the Three Pure Ones themselves!

He really was a biological son!

Fang Xun: "You're not even the same Three Pure Ones. At most, you're a Chaos Demon God that looks like a biological son. One chop might even let him experience what it feels like to beat his son. Maybe you'll have to take two extra axe strikes."

Ye Fan: "Haha, that's possible too."

Ji Ning: "Great God Pangu also opened the heavens in my homeland. He is likewise a Creation god revered throughout All Heavens, though the Pangu of your Primordial Wilderness is exceptionally powerful."

Ye Fan: "Just how powerful is that Great God Pangu?"

Ye Fan was even more curious about Pangu now, his fighting spirit already stirring.

Hong Yi: "From what I sensed in that instant, there were... many Chaos Demon Gods who had already grasped the true meaning of 'Nothingness.'"

But every Chaos Demon God had died, and Ye Fan was also one who had grasped the true meaning of "Nothingness"...

Hong Yi: "Pangu is supreme. So is the Primordial Wilderness."

Ye Fan returned to his own Heavenly Court. Sitting upon the Heavenly Emperor's throne and looking at Hong Yi's reply, he finally confirmed one thing.

There was still a path beyond Above Sacrificial Dao!

Anything capable of killing those who had grasped the true meaning of "Nothingness" had to have surpassed the realm of Above Sacrificial Dao.

"Pangu is supreme. So is the Primordial Wilderness..." Ye Fan pondered those words, deep in thought. Could that Pangu possibly be even higher?

The waters of the Primordial Wilderness ran deep...

Ye Fan quickly suppressed the emotions in his heart and rationally deduced the path forward.

"It was the path he attempted." He soon came to a conclusion. That Dao Friend who had once buried everything, including himself, had been right.

This was the inevitability of the Sacrifice Dao Method. At the very end, one would inevitably sacrifice oneself.

"It's just that we may be missing something here, or perhaps we've truly hit a ceiling?"

Universes were born and extinguished in Ye Fan's eyes, and the Great Dao returned to emptiness. He examined every great sacrifice throughout the ages, as well as that Dao Friend's attempt.

"The Sacrifice Dao Method is too extreme. In the end, it sacrifices oneself..."

"This path definitely can't be taken. It needs improvement." Ye Fan looked over his vast Heavenly Court. He was not a madman like that Dao Friend, tired of living. The Heavenly Court was filled with his family and friends; he simply could not bring himself to do it.

Troubled yet excited, Ye Fan began evolving his own method anew. After an unknown amount of time, he looked toward the Chat Group again.

"Perhaps there is a simpler method."

Ye Fan: "Dao Friend Hong Yi, did you see the Pangu True Body?"

Hong Yi: "That's right. I saw Pangu and gained some insights."

Hong Yi uploaded "What I Saw."

Ye Fan: "Thank you, Dao Friend."

Ye Fan downloaded it and quickly immersed himself in it.

Hong Yi's What I Saw merely described everything he had seen, without adding any of his own interpretations.

The other Group Friends also downloaded it to watch, Fang Xun included.

He was a Taiyi Golden Immortal now, after all, and could somewhat understand the concepts of "existence" and "Nothingness."

Yet as he watched what Hong Yi had seen, that dazzling, resplendent axe light flashed by and shattered all his self-satisfaction and pride with a single blow.

He was not qualified to watch it... Being able to understand the concepts of "existence" and "Nothingness" did not mean he could understand Great God Pangu.

"To watch this, you probably need to be at least a Da Luo." Fang Xun slowly shook his head and gave up. It was not something his current self could watch.

He also headed toward the human race and happened to see that Hong Yi had successfully blended into the newly born humans.

However, Hong Yi's appearance as a scholar dressed in a blue robe was far too conspicuous amid a crowd wearing grass skirts.

Of course, Fang Xun himself was also conspicuous. But he was now the Guardian of the Human Race personally appointed by Nuwa, and had long since become connected to Human Race Destiny. These humans instinctively respected him.

In truth, Fang Xun had also contributed a tenth of his origin during Nuwa's Creation of Humans. That was what had naturally connected him to Human Race Destiny. Otherwise, could just anyone enjoy the human race's destiny and merit?

Once the human race truly became the Eternal protagonist of the Primordial Wilderness, that destiny and merit would be enough to make anyone below the Sages envious.

Hong Yi mingled among the crowd, conducting field research to understand the current human race's intelligence, their progress in comprehending the world, their views of it, and more.

During this process, Hong Yi also deliberately made himself stand out.

"This is necessary," Hong Yi explained to Fang Xun as he approached. "If I want to teach them, I must first establish the authority of a teacher and display what makes me different. Clothing is only one aspect."

These newly born humans had all been personally created by Nuwa. They generally possessed good comprehension, some basic common knowledge, and learned about the world at an extremely rapid pace.

"Can you tell me your teaching plan?" As the current Guardian of the Human Race, Fang Xun had found them a teacher, so naturally he needed to ask what he intended to teach.

Of course, Hong Yi also knew how deep the waters of the Primordial Wilderness were. He would not truly do something like forcibly raising the level of civilization.

"I will be a guide. Every achievement of the human race must be completed by themselves." Hong Yi knew what Fang Xun was thinking, so he stated his position.

This way, figures such as Suiren Shi and Youchao Shi would not have their destined opportunities and fates taken from them. It was merely that the time when they achieved their accomplishments would likely be greatly advanced, and the human race's development might be exceptionally rapid.

There were still three yuanhui before the Zixiao Palace's lecture. From now on, they would have another four hundred thousand years to develop in peace.

"Four hundred thousand years..." That might be an extremely long time for an ordinary human civilization, but for an immortal cultivation civilization born in the Primordial Wilderness, it might not even produce many Golden Immortals.

They had Hong Yi now, but without forcibly accelerating their growth, it would still be impossible for them to reach a level capable of contending with the Witch-Demon race.

"The Witch-Demon calamity cannot be avoided in the end."

Fang Xun and Hong Yi looked at each other and began discussing more detailed matters concerning the human race.
