World-Opening Merit Blinds the Eyes! Xuanzheng: It's All Father God's Love for Me!

Xuanzheng couldn't help but let out a long roar to the sky!

This batch of beginner's benefits, let's take off!

Just then— "Rumble!"

The doors of Pangu Hall were blasted open by a monstrous force!

Twelve figures, wreathed in overwhelming killing intent and scorching aura, charged in like tornadoes. It was the Twelve Ancestral Witches, returning after their departure!

They had sensed the earth-shattering, terrifying changes within Pangu Hall the moment they were outside.

The fluctuations of Primordial Ancestral Qi, so pure that it made their hearts pound, and Xuanzheng's wildly surging aura, made them unable to hold back any longer!

Then, they witnessed a scene they would never forget in their lives!

Xuanzheng sat cross-legged in the center of the hall, surrounded by Primordial Chaos Qi so dense it was almost tangible.

And behind his head, a purple-gold Auspicious Cloud, about an mu in size, was showering down myriad rays of auspicious light, making him appear like a deity who had emerged from the chaos!

Sacred, majestic, and unfathomably profound!

The entire Pangu Hall had its spiritual energy liquefied, with Mysterious Yellow Qi raining down like threads. Phantom images of pale golden lotuses emerged and vanished on the ground, life and Dao rhythm intertwined, more exaggerated than the legendary Blessed Lands!

This... was this still their dilapidated Pangu Hall?

This was clearly a top-tier cultivation sacred ground!

"Te... Thirteenth Brother... You... You... you emptied out Father God's entire stash?!"

Zhurong, with the hottest temper, had his voice cracking at this moment. He pointed at the purple-gold Auspicious Cloud behind Xuanzheng's head, his eyes wider than copper pots, his face filled with disbelief and... fervent envy!

"Merit Auspicious Cloud?! And this aura... is it World-Opening Merit?!"

Zhujiuyin, who was knowledgeable and usually composed, had a trembling and hoarse voice now, his eyes fixed on the Auspicious Cloud!

Their Witch Clan did not cultivate the Primordial Spirit, did not revere heaven and earth, and did not understand the Laws of Heaven, thus they were naturally destined to have no connection with merit.

This was a cognition etched into their very bones!

But now, this thirteenth brother, who should have been weak, not only "fixed" his "minor ailment" and surged in aura to a level they had to take seriously, but he had actually... produced the legendary World-Opening Merit Auspicious Cloud?!

This was clearly Father God stuffing all his hidden savings to this younger brother!

The Twelve Ancestral Witches looked at Xuanzheng, their gazes incredibly complex: shock, dread, envy, jealousy... finally transforming into deep affirmation, ecstatic joy, and... a trace of heartfelt reverence!

This thirteenth brother was extraordinary! He was the biggest trump card Father God left for our Witch Clan to defy fate!

Xuanzheng chuckled inwardly, but on the surface, he deliberately put on an expression of "just finished breaking through, a bit dazed, but feeling good."

He scratched his head, his tone carrying the purity of a young man and affection for his elder brothers, appearing honest yet with a hint of smugness.

"Brothers, I... I don't know exactly what happened. I just followed Father God's guidance, felt like fixing this place, patching up that spot... and then... it became like this."

He paused, his tone sincere, his eyes clear.

"Father God... truly favors us of the Witch Clan the most! These benefits are definitely proof that Father God wants our Witch Clan to become stronger and stronger!"

As soon as he said this, the Twelve Ancestral Witches believed him wholeheartedly, moved to tears!

Father God really hadn't abandoned us!

Dijiang, the Spatial Ancestral Witch, took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart. He stepped forward, carefully sensing Xuanzheng's powerful aura, which was firmly at the peak of the Early Ancestral Witch stage, even faintly touching the threshold of the Mid stage, as well as the boundless, life-giving energy within Pangu Hall. His eyes shot out brilliant light, and he said "Good" three times in a row: "Good! Good! Good! Thirteenth Brother, you are indeed the Kirin Child of our Witch Clan! Father God's blessings! From today onwards, you shall be the thirteenth rightful Ancestral Witch of our Witch Clan—Ancestral Witch Xuanzheng! Your status will be no different from ours!"

"We congratulate Ancestral Witch Xuanzheng!" Dijiang was the first to solemnly declare, nodding slightly at Xuanzheng.

The other Ancestral Witches also reacted, suppressing their shock and excitement, their voices filled with sincere affirmation: "Congratulations, Ancestral Witch Xuanzheng!"

Xuanzheng was overjoyed inwardly, but on his face, he appeared "overwhelmed with favor, trembling with fear," and quickly waved his hands.

"You elder brothers flatter this junior! Xuanzheng is new here, and I will need much guidance from you all in the future, so we can work together for the glory of the Witch Clan!"

The shocking effect of this "super beginner's gift package" had earned him initial trust, respect, and influence!

After exchanging pleasantries with the Twelve Ancestral Witches and "assuring" them again that his condition was stable and he just needed to "consolidate his realm," Xuanzheng finally "persuaded" them out of Pangu Hall.

He immediately communicated with the Manual, and with a thought: "Manual, scan my current status and see if there are any more wool I can shear... ah, no, any bugs I can fix!"

[Scan complete! Host's current status: Perfect! Unjudged Primordial Chaos · Innate Ancestral Witch Dao Embryo forged, Potential: Unfathomable!]

[Detected that due to the excessive complexity of the Pangu Essence Blood inheritance, there are 7 subtle conflicting bugs in the host's comprehension and application of certain Laws. Fixing them can enhance combat effectiveness and Law compatibility.]

[Bug List:]

[1. A 0.03 nanosecond delay BUG exists in the connection between the Law of Strength and the Law of Speed during extreme bursts... Reward for fixing: A small amount of Pangu Origin (affinity towards Strength and Speed), a slight increase in physical burst power, and faster attack speed.]

[2. Subtle desynchronization BUG exists between Spatial Perception and Time Flow Prediction in high-speed movement or complex battlefield environments... Reward for fixing: A small amount of Pangu Origin (affinity towards Spacetime Perception), a slight increase in soul perception and battlefield insight.]

[...]

"Heh, as expected! Although they are all minor bugs, they add up!" Xuanzheng's eyes lit up.

He glanced at the [Myriad Heavens Script Mirror] on the back of his right hand, and with a thought: "Use the Script Mirror to perform an 'optimal solution' deduction for the process of fixing these bugs."

[Script Mirror (Junior Permission) prompt: ...Attempting deduction... Deduction complete. It is recommended that when fixing bugs, the host first visualize Father God's scene of creating heaven and earth, and then draw upon the power of the purple-gold Auspicious Cloud of World-Opening Merit to assist. This can increase the efficiency of Pangu Origin absorption by about 5%, and there is a very small chance of comprehending a sliver of the profound mysteries of the corresponding Law.]

"Oh ho? There's such a good thing!" Xuanzheng was overjoyed.

"Batch Fix (Junior) module, activate! Consume a portion of World-Opening Merit, execute according to the Script Mirror's deduction plan!"

He didn't hesitate to expend a small portion of the newly acquired World-Opening Merit.

In an instant, a series of crackling sounds emanated from Xuanzheng. Seven wisps of subtle yet pure Pangu Origin merged into his limbs, his body, and the depths of his soul.

As he visualized, he guided the power of the Auspicious Cloud, and indeed, he felt the Origin energy being absorbed more smoothly. His understanding of the Laws became clearer by a sliver, and his physical body grew more coordinated, rounded, and filled with explosive power!

His realm hadn't broken through, but his true combat strength had climbed another small step!

"Awesome!" Xuanzheng felt the more condensed and surging power within him, his heart filled with soaring ambition.

"My own little BUG has been resolved. Next up is this Pangu Hall!"

He cast his gaze toward the Manual, where a series of new BUGs related to Pangu Hall's overall defense, spirit gathering efficiency, and even the nurturing of future Witch Clan descendants' bloodlines had appeared after the core energy BUG of Pangu Hall was repaired.

Repairing these BUGs would yield rewards that were just as mouth-watering!

Especially one BUG marked as [High Risk]—[BUG ID Pangu_002: Pangu Hall's defense system is severely lacking. Its structural stability is insufficient to withstand sustained attacks from Grand Unity Golden Immortal level or above. Furthermore, its ability to purify malevolent energy and calamity qi from outside the Chaos is weak. If subjected to a siege by powerful enemies or the erosion of calamity qi during a Calamity, there is a significant hidden danger of the Hall being destroyed and its inhabitants perishing!]

The repair plan required using the Buzhou Mountain Dragon Vein Ancestral Source as the core formation eye to construct the Pangu World-Suppression Mysterious Yellow Great Array!

Repair Reward: A massive amount of Heavenly Dao Merit, and a special building upgrade blueprint for [Pangu War God Hall (Imitation - Nascent Stage)]!

"Pangu War God Hall... My goodness, the name alone sounds formidable!" Xuanzheng's eyes gleamed.

"Using the Buzhou Mountain Dragon Vein Ancestral Source as the formation eye, what a grand gesture! As expected of Father God's legacy!"

He could almost envision the future Witch-Demon War, the demons' frustration at being unable to breach Pangu Hall's gates.

"Hehehehe... you little demon brats, and that old man Hongjun hiding behind the scenes plotting against all beings, just you wait!"
