At this moment!
Tongtian's body surged with unparalleled sword intent, yet due to the abruptly intensified Heavenly Dao Power, he was instantly gravely wounded, spitting out a mouthful of Origin Essence Blood.
Tongtian dropped to one knee, using the Azure Purity Sword to support his body, barely steadying himself.
A chilling aura swept over him.
Tongtian lifted his head with difficulty, only to see a pair of emotionless eyes staring down at him.
Hongjun of the Heavenly Dao!
Blood trickled from the corner of Tongtian's mouth, but he curled his lips into a faint, mocking smile.
"Hongjun, even you have things you cannot control."
"I will shatter this Zixiao Palace!"
"Leave this place!"
Hongjun's expression turned even colder.
"Arrogant fool!"
He was about to obliterate Tongtian's soul.
But at that very moment, Boom!!!
The void of the Primordial Wilderness erupted with violent tremors, as if the world itself was rebooting in a cataclysmic shock.
The rumbling continued without pause.
The Heaven and Earth Membrane of the Primordial Wilderness expanded violently, devouring endless chaos with reckless abandon.
The entire world seemed to turn upside down, undergoing astonishing transformations.
The Thirty-Third Heaven's curtain suddenly soared upward!
New celestial towers materialized out of thin air!
The thirty-three layers of foundations also thickened and strengthened!
New earthly rings were born as well!
The four seas churned and surged!
Expanding to their utmost limits!
The shattered Heavenly Pillar, Buzhou Mountain, rumbled loudly!
It, too, began to rise!
Both Hongjun and Master Tongtian were drawn to the spectacle!
They stared at the Primordial Wilderness in disbelief!
Hongjun's eyes narrowed sharply!
His expression shifted drastically!
This Primordial Wilderness—
was transforming once more!
More violently than before!
The Taiqing Realm!
Daluo Heaven!
Immortal mists swirled!
Ethereal Daoist chants drifted through the air!
Supreme sacred radiance filled the holy domain!
In the void, immeasurable Great Dao Laws flickered into being and faded away, manifesting all phenomena, encompassing the truths of every realm!
Signs appeared one after another, refusing to cease!
Countless spiritual beings across the entire Daluo Heaven benefited from this.
The Chaos Spiritual Root on Breathing Earth Divine Island even released endless profound meanings!
Its fluctuations coalesced into the form of clouds and mist!
And within Daluo Heaven!
At the location of Eight Sceneries Palace!
Above hung an infinite star river, cascading like a waterfall.
Boundless Xuanhuang Mother Qi swirled around, its momentum vast and majestic.
High above Eight Sceneries Palace, the phantom of a supreme Daoist sat between heaven and earth, illuminating all heavens.
Countless starlight surrounded him, while the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws interwove and flowed.
The phantom wore a Taiqing Ruyi Crown, draped in a Xuanhuang Taiji Robe, with Seventy-Two Colored Lights blooming atop his head, and Great Dao Golden Lotuses blossoming around him.
His left hand lightly pinched, his right hand gently held, his face hazy and impossible to gaze upon directly, as if bearing the supreme Great Dao.
This was the phantom of Grand Pure One Laozi, radiating an endless aura of origin, as if it were the source of all things' paths.
If any saint were present, they would surely be utterly shocked.
After a moment, The Grand Pure One slowly opened his eyes, revealing worlds being born and dying within his pupils, the mysteries of the Great Dao manifesting.
With a shift of his intent, he returned to simplicity, and all signs vanished.
At that moment, the system's voice rang out:
Ding! Congratulations on the Primordial World's level upgrade!
Current World Level: Elementary Taiji World!
A faint smile appeared at the corner of The Grand Pure One's lips.
The Primordial World's ascension to an Elementary Taiji World greatly enhanced its Origin Force, and as the binder of the Primordial Origin, he too reaped immense benefits.
His Origin Force reached unprecedented heights, surpassing that of a Primordial Saint.
Even so, although The Grand Pure One's Dao Realm had reached the peak of Primordial Saint, it was still not complete.
Though The Grand Pure One had yet to break through to the Primal Unity Limitless realm, he was close.
He did not rush to cultivate, instead quietly awaiting the full evolution of the Primordial World.
The system rewards were about to be distributed, and then achieving Primal Unity Limitless would be effortless.
At this moment, The Grand Pure One was deeply intrigued by the changes in the Primordial World.
The Primordial World's evolution continued, accompanied by deafening Dao sounds, as tides of spiritual energy poured down like an inverted star river, covering the entire land.
Heavenly signs appeared: celestial flowers drifted down, golden lotuses surged from the earth, auspicious clouds filled the sky, and purple qi came from the east.
Countless cave heavens and blessed lands, Innate Spiritual Roots, and Innate Spiritual Treasures emerged one after another. Trillions of beings were born, took form, became immortals, broke through realms, and attained the Dao.
The number of Primordial World Beings doubled, and the world displayed an unprecedented scene of prosperity, with countless beings benefiting from the tide of spiritual energy.
The Primordial World once again underwent a great transformation, with the laws of heaven and earth constantly evolving.
After The Grand Pure One transmitted the Dao, the number of immortals in the Primordial World surged. Now, with its ascension to an Elementary Taiji World, the Origin Force was greatly enhanced, and the number of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals skyrocketed.
This grand spectacle far surpassed the glory of the Ancient Wu and Yao era.
Even more exhilarating was the scattering of countless ownerless Law Fragments across the Primordial World, giving birth to innumerable Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and cave heavens and blessed lands, offering unprecedented opportunities to all beings.
One must understand that after stepping into the Zenith Heaven realm, comprehending the Dao laws was extremely difficult.
But now, such a great opportunity lay before them.
In the Northern Abyss, Kunpeng fused several Law Fragments, his comprehension skyrocketing, and his Great Dao cultivation advanced another level. He could not help but be overjoyed. "These Law Fragments all belong to me. One day, I too will attain the Dao."
In the Blood Sea, Styx's eyes flickered with light, as if turbulent waves churned within his heart.
The appearance of the Three Thousand Law Fragments shocked everyone.
"What kind of supreme fortune is this?"
Styx acted swiftly, beginning to gather these fragments with all his might.
At this moment, it concerned the breakthrough of his own Great Dao; perhaps through this, he could attain sainthood.
Spirit Mountain Buddhist Sect.
Numerous gods and Buddhas were stirred with excitement, all joining the ranks in searching for Law Fragments.
This was undoubtedly a heaven-sent opportunity.
As the leader of Mahayana Buddhism, Duobao deeply understood the importance of this chance.
According to The Grand Pure One's teachings, the more prosperous Buddhism became, the greater the benefits it could reap in the future.
Thus, Duobao decisively ordered everyone to go out and collect Law Fragments.
Boundless East Sea.
Though the Dragon Race bore the weight of sin, they would never let such an opportunity slip by.
East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang dispatched countless clansmen to search for Law Fragments.
Countless mighty figures and factions across the Primordial World clashed fiercely, sparking endless strife.
Yet amid this chaos, the beings of the Primordial World discovered a startling truth—the space of the Primordial Heaven and Earth had grown far more stable.
Five Villages Monastery.
Zhen Yuanzi's heart trembled with shock.
"Such an earth-shattering feat—which great power could have wrought it?"
Law Fragments meant nothing to a Sage.
As the master of the Earth Book, Zhen Yuanzi focused far more on the changes within the Primordial Heaven and Earth themselves!
This vast realm now stretched wider and higher, its world strength vastly enhanced.
Even Buzhou Mountain seemed to be recovering!
Sensing the Earth Book, Zhen Yuanzi gazed into the distance at the broken peak of Buzhou Mountain, overcome with emotion.
If the Witch-Demon War had occurred now, even two Ancestral Witches might not have been able to shatter the Heavenly Pillar.
Within the Underworld, in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Houtu sensed the changes in the earth, her heart filled with deep emotion.
The power of the Earth Dao had grown so profound that even she could feel the joy of the Earth Dao Divine Seal.
"I wonder which Dao Venerable drove this evolution of the Primordial World. If fate allows, I must offer my sincere thanks."
A smile spread across Houtu's face.
In ages past, the Primordial Heaven and Earth had collapsed and shattered, even destroying its own disciples.
Now, not only had it been restored, but it had advanced even further!
The beings of the Primordial World flourished more than ever.
Houtu, with her boundless compassion, felt her heart brim with joy.
Just then.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Houtu suddenly detected a faint yet powerful beating sound from deep within the earth!
Like a weak but vigorous heart pulsing!
Houtu's gaze sharpened!
What was this?
Sage power instantly flooded the entire earth!
Soon, her Sage power locked onto a place she knew all too well—
Buzhou Mountain!
When her Sage power reached that spot, the beating sound had already vanished.
Houtu's expression shifted dramatically, a complex glint flashing in her eyes.
Deep within Buzhou Mountain lay a site most familiar to the Witch Race—the sacred Pangu Hall.
Houtu's heart trembled with shock: "Could that heartbeat have come from Pangu Hall?" she murmured to herself. "Is it possible that Pangu's Heart still beats?"
This thought furrowed her brow, deepening her confusion.
Could Pangu's Heart still beat? It was utterly inconceivable—never in the billions of years of the Witch Race's existence had such a thing occurred.
Was it due to the ongoing evolution of the Primordial World? Or was it all under the control of that mysterious great power driving the evolution?
Houtu shook her head gently. Such secrets were beyond even a Sage's reach.
Perhaps only Grand Pure One Laozi might know.
She longed to investigate further, but she could not enter Buzhou Mountain, let alone Pangu Hall.
That place could even block the Heavenly Dao's secrets—even with her cultivation, she could perceive nothing.
"I must complete the opening of the Earth Dao as soon as possible," Houtu resolved silently. "Then I can leave the Underworld and go to Buzhou Mountain to uncover the truth."
She instinctively looked toward Daluo Heaven. Perhaps only Grand Pure One Laozi could unravel this mystery.
Inside Wa Huang Palace in Grand Simplicity Heaven, Nüwa saw the flourishing Primordial World Beings and felt deep relief in her heart.
Her path had always been one of creation and transformation, so she naturally held a fondness for all living things.
But Nüwa was equally astonished by the current level of evolution in the Primordial World.
This had likely already surpassed the limits of the Primordial World!
"Who exactly is driving such a drastic transformation in the Primordial World?"
"Hongjun? Absolutely impossible. How could Hongjun possess such boldness?"
Nüwa shook her head, her gaze shifting toward Purple Cloud Palace.
She wondered how the Dao Ancestor would react to the changes in the Primordial World.
Purple Cloud Palace.
Hongjun's expression shifted unpredictably.
This evolution of the Primordial World had completely exceeded his expectations!
Who was behind it all?
Tongtian couldn't help but throw his head back and laugh wildly.
"Hongjun, there are some things you never saw coming, aren't there?"
"Is this Primordial World truly under your control?"
Even wounded and trapped, Tongtian showed no fear of Hongjun.
His laughter carried a hint of boldness.
And even a trace of contempt for Hongjun.
Hongjun cast a cold glance at Tongtian.
His form vanished in an instant.
Entering the void of the Heavenly Dao.
At this moment, he had no time to tangle with Tongtian.
His current priority was not to uncover the cause of the Primordial World's evolution.
But to fully master the upgraded authority of the Heavenly Dao.
Otherwise, as the Primordial World advanced and the Heavenly Dao grew stronger, his process of merging with the Dao would be hindered.
This was something Hongjun could not tolerate.
As for the Heavenly Court still locked in fierce battle and the nearly insane Haotian, Hongjun couldn't be bothered to pay them any mind.
Though Haotian was incompetent, he had his own schemes.
The Human Emperor Ying Zheng was doomed to die!
Daluo Heaven.
Inside Eight Sceneries Palace.
The Grand Pure One paid no attention to Haotian of the Heavenly Court.
Ying Zheng's campaign against the Heavenly Court was already a foregone conclusion.
Even with the intervention of the Buddhist Sect and the aid of sages, it would make no difference.
At this moment, The Grand Pure One was focused on the system reward.
Just then, the system prompt rang out again:
The Primordial World has fully upgraded!
Detected: Primordial World's first evolution into a Five Tai World!
Host's essence has transformed!
Primordial Origin Authority upgraded to intermediate level!
Host will receive a super-tier reward!
Super-tier reward?
The Grand Pure One was momentarily stunned.
Then his heart surged with excitement.
The Primordial World's ascension to a Five Tai World would inevitably trigger massive changes.
This reward was bound to be astonishing.
