Since Pangu split open Chaos and created the Primordial Land, several more Measure Calamities had passed.

First, Dao Ancestor Hongjun attained sainthood and merged with the Dao. Later, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Jieyin, and Zhunti followed the will of the Heavenly Dao and became saints.

After enduring countless calamities, the Primordial Land had finally gradually settled into peace.

Yet one day, the entire heaven and earth of the Primordial Land suddenly began to tremble violently. Darkness fell, and the sun and moon lost their light.

In an instant, the aura of the Primordial Land rapidly withered away... The entire world turned ash-gray.

The Primordial Great Beings sensed something and looked up, only to see a ten-thousand-zhang Heavenly Hole torn deep within the Heavenly Palace. Heaven tilted, earth collapsed, and destruction loomed as though the end of days had arrived.

It turned out that Gonggong and Zhurong had fought. After losing, Gonggong struck the Heavenly Pillar in rage, punching a ten-thousand-zhang hole through the heavens.

At that moment, countless chaotic energies poured down from beyond the Nine Heavens. The living beings of the Primordial Land were caught unprepared, and more than half were instantly killed or wounded!

The survivors struggled desperately in despair. The scene was truly horrific.

At the critical moment between life and death, a holy maiden with a human body and serpent tail appeared, dressed in Phoenix Coronet and Cloud Robes and radiating seven-colored light.

She was Nuwa.

At that moment, she held a ten-thousand-zhang Seven-Colored Divine Stone in her hands and flew with all her strength toward the Heaven-Covering Hole.

She intended to mend the Heavenly Palace.

Yet the closer she drew to the Heaven-Covering Hole, the more difficult it became. Endless turbid qi of the Primordial Land continued to gush forth, preventing Nuwa, who held the Seven-Colored Divine Stone aloft, from successfully Mending the Heavens.

Just as Nuwa remained locked in a stalemate with the Chaotic Turbid Qi, while the other saints could only anxiously protect the common people without being able to intervene—

A violet-golden ray suddenly flew through the air from the depths of the Primordial Land.

Blinding streaks of violet-golden light bloomed across the heavens, illuminating the endless Chaos.

After the violet-golden radiance that lit heaven and earth dimmed slightly, the saints finally saw that it was a scroll that covered the sky and blocked out the sun.

This violet-golden scroll seemed to possess the mystical power to suppress eternity and span all heavens.

At that moment, the sky-covering scroll opened by the slightest sliver, releasing an indescribably vast divine might.

The endless Chaotic Turbid Qi was utterly shattered the instant it encountered that mighty heavenly power.

Nuwa, holding the ten-thousand-zhang divine stone, immediately felt the burden lighten. She activated her divine power, rose against the heavens, and carried the stone into the hole in the sky, perfectly filling the Heaven-Covering Hole.

Nuwa then wielded immense divine power and melted the stone to mend the heavens.

At last, she completely repaired the Heaven-Covering Hole.

Endless Merit then descended, a reward from the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth for the saints' repair of the heavens.

Sage Zhunti, Guiding Sage of the West, Primal Sage, Grand Supreme Sage, and Sage Tongtian each received one-tenth of the fortune for protecting all living beings, while Saint Nuwa, who refined the stone to mend the heavens, alone received half of it.

Yet the saints who had received this fortune showed not the slightest joy.

Six sky-covering figures gathered together, their gazes fixed tightly upon the violet-golden scroll above.

Since they had been born in ancient times, they had never seen such a magic treasure.

This mysterious scroll was clearly an unparalleled supreme treasure.

It had merely opened by a sliver, yet it had completely destroyed the endless chaotic currents.

It was truly inconceivable.

The saints looked at one another, unable to conceal the surging excitement in their hearts.

At the same time, their eyes gradually reddened.

Even though they had already become saints and attained a state of mind untouched by worldly stains—

At that moment, towering waves still surged in their hearts.

Because as far as they knew, aside from their teacher's Creation Jade Tablet, no magic treasure possessed such power.

This scroll had only opened by a sliver, yet it had broken through the endless power of Chaos. It was undoubtedly far stronger than supreme treasures such as the Pangu Banner and Taiji Diagram.

How could this not stir their hearts?

Besides the six sky-covering saints, the violet-golden scroll in the heavens also drew the attention of many other Primordial Great Beings.

After all, the emergence of this violet-golden scroll had caused an immense commotion.

Its vast divine might, in particular, stunned the countless billions of beings in the Primordial Land.

All surviving Primordial Great Beings fixed their gazes upon it.

They watched every movement there.

The Three Pure Ones were originally one entity, their minds connected. At that moment, endless divine light bloomed in all three of their eyes, their gazes seemingly containing the Heavenly Derivation Dao.

This was a unique divine ability of the Three Pure Ones.

They could deduce the Heavenly Dao, perceive heavenly secrets, and see the origins of all things in the Primordial Land. There was nothing they did not know or understand.

Yet the moment their gazes touched the violet-golden scroll—

The violet-golden scroll seemed to contain endless Dao Intent. Its divine might was immense, majestic, and inviolable.

In an instant, it shattered the divine light in the Three Pure Ones' eyes. Their eyes stung, and bloody tears actually streamed down their faces.

At the same time, their three towering bodies could no longer hold on. They staggered backward in utter humiliation and misery.

The Three Pure Ones' state instantly caused an uproar among the great figures of the Primordial Land.

Three saints had actually been wounded and forced back by this violet-golden scroll at the same time?

This was simply unimaginable and directly overturned everything they knew.

Who were the Three Pure Ones? They had been formed from Pangu's primordial spirit and Innate Pure Qi.

They gained the fortune of the merit from creating heaven and earth, cultivated for countless years, founded great teachings, and received the merit of transforming countless living beings. Only then had they achieved the status of saints.

Even across the entire Primordial Land, the Three Pure Ones, bound together as one, were unquestionably the strongest!

Yet even such powerful Three Pure Ones had been wounded and driven back by this violet-golden scroll?

What exactly was going on?

Countless billions of living beings in the Primordial Land all sucked in a cold breath.

Their minds could barely process it.

Seeing the Three Pure Ones forced back, the Guiding Sage of the West's expression brightened with delight.

"The Three Sages of the East were forced back? Could it be that this violet-golden scroll is fated with The West?"

As he spoke, his eyes turned crimson.

Sage Zhunti beside the Guiding Sage of the West also nodded, delight flashing in his gaze.

"It seems that the opportunity for The West's rise lies with this violet-golden scroll..."

As he spoke, Sage Zhunti reached toward the heavens. His hand instantly transformed into a Heaven-Covering Hand.

Bearing radiant heavenly might, the Heaven-Covering Hand directly seized toward the violet-golden scroll.

Yet the violet-golden scroll merely released a faint violet-golden aura, and the Heaven-Covering Hand immediately collapsed.

Not only that, Sage Zhunti's true body suffered a backlash as well.

His right arm exploded out of thin air, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

His enormous body staggered and crashed to the ground.

He even implicated the Guiding Sage of the West beside him. The Guiding Sage of the West also spat blood and fell to the ground.

Everyone stared blankly at the sight, their eyes nearly popping out.

Of the six saints of heaven and earth, five had been wounded by the violet-golden scroll in an instant?

This was simply too unbelievable.

What exactly was this thing?

How could it emit such overwhelmingly powerful aura? It was far too terrifying!

Of the six saints, only Nuwa remained standing.

Nuwa, whose Phoenix Coronet and Cloud Robes outshone the entire Primordial Land, glanced at the violet-golden scroll and very consciously retreated several steps. She did not believe herself stronger than the Three Pure Ones.

At this sight, countless billions of living beings in the Primordial Land erupted in uproar!

The Three Pure Ones had been driven back, the Two Sages of the West had been knocked down, and Nuwa had voluntarily withdrawn.

Were the saints too weak?

Or was this violet-golden scroll too strong?

Everything that had happened today far exceeded their imagination, leaving behind an impression that could never be erased.

Yet at that moment, another anomaly appeared in the skies.

The expressions of the six Heaven Dao Sages suddenly turned grim.

The Heaven-Covering Hole seemed not to have been repaired securely. Amid strange sounds, numerous spatial cracks appeared across the vast heavens.

These spatial cracks continued to expand at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Like a spiderweb, the cracks spread across half the sky in the blink of an eye.

At this sight—

The expressions of countless billions of living beings in the Primordial Land changed drastically.

Although Nuwa had successfully repaired the great hole in the Heavenly Palace, it was no longer perfect.

It could no longer withstand the power of Chaos beyond the heavens. The sky was about to shatter.

The Primordial Land would likely be completely overturned in an instant.

At the very brink of destruction, the sky-covering scroll suddenly released violet-golden light once more.

It then slowly unfolded across the heavens, actually blocking and concealing the continuously shattering cracks.

Like a patch, the scroll was affixed to the heavens, completely repairing the cracks in the sky.

As the scroll unfolded, endless violet-golden qi bloomed over the Primordial Land, spreading throughout it.

Countless phenomena manifested one after another, filling the entire Primordial Land with endless auspicious signs. The slightly withered spiritual qi erupted once more.

Only after a long while did the violet-golden scroll finally unfold completely.

The fully unfurled scroll became incomparably enormous. It stretched across the Azure Void, covering the sky and spanning the heavens, its length unknown by hundreds of millions of zhang.

Several large characters appeared on the violet-golden scroll:

Hongmeng Purple Gold List!
