"Hongmeng Purple Gold List?"

Countless billions of living beings across the Primordial Land raised their heads to the sky, gazing at the majestic list.

The five great characters radiated boundless Dao rhythms and endless divine might, as though they contained the very origin of the Great Dao.

A mere few words were enough to shake the entire Primordial Land.

This was the object that had successively repelled the Three Sages of the East, defeated the Two Sages of the West, and even forced Nuwa into retreat.

It had also repaired the heavens, which had been on the verge of collapse.

This object was clearly a supreme treasure beyond measure, possessing unfathomable divine power.

None of the six Sages between Heaven and Earth had any affinity with this treasure.

In that case, it would surely benefit the other living beings of the Primordial Land.

Whoever obtained the Hongmeng Purple Gold List would surely be able to awe the world.

From this day onward, the Primordial Land would welcome a new heaven!

In an instant, the breathing of all the great beings grew heavy as desire surged within their hearts.

Above the Nine Heavens stood an Eternal Immortal Palace, its aura ethereal and elusive as it lay hidden deep within the firmament. This was the Heavenly Court.

Within the Heavenly Court stood two peerlessly elegant great beings, both looking up toward the sky.

Their gazes seemed capable of piercing falsehood and seeing through Heaven and Earth.

The leader was none other than Heavenly Emperor Dijun, chief of all demons and ruler of the demon hosts.

"What exactly is this Hongmeng Purple Gold List? Even Sages are no match for it? It is truly beyond imagination. With this object appearing, even the demon race's fortune has been affected... I wonder whether this is a blessing or a calamity for the demon race..."

The other was Eastern Emperor Taiyi, who commanded the war against the Sorcerer Race. He too looked toward the sky.

"Why do I feel that this Hongmeng Purple Gold List is connected to me? Could it be that this object is destined to belong to me?"

At this thought, a feverish light appeared in Eastern Emperor Taiyi's eyes.

The Emperor frowned slightly. "Convey my decree. All demons of the Primordial Land are to return swiftly to the Heavenly Court and their respective Dao fields, and await developments."

At the very center of the Primordial Land stood a colossal grand hall. Its bearing was majestic and imposing, blessed with boundless fortune. It was the Ancestral Witch Grand Hall, the sacred land of the Sorcerer Race.

Just then, ten vast and towering figures manifested. They were the twelve Ancestral Witches who held up Heaven and Earth.

The leader was Dijiang, foremost among the twelve Ancestral Witches.

"Zhurong and Gonggong went too far. They actually caused such a disaster... bringing calamity upon the Primordial Land... and making the Sorcerer Race bear so much hatred for nothing... Despicable!"

Another person behind him said,

"Big Brother, the two of them have committed such a slaughtering calamity. I fear they will soon answer the tribulation and perish. When that happens, two of the twelve Ancestral Witches will be gone. How will we form the Twelve Divine Demon Grand Formation? How will we contend against the innate demon race?"

For a time, the other Ancestral Witches also sighed and gradually fell silent.

Dijiang's expression was grim as he raised his head toward the Hongmeng Purple Gold List, which covered the sky and blotted out the sun.

"Pass down the order. All members of the Sorcerer Race are to return to the sacred land, preserve our strength, and observe the changes of Heaven and Earth."

Deep beneath the Primordial Land lay a special region.

This region was a wondrous underground space that concealed a vast and boundless Blood Sea.

Legend had it that this Blood Sea had transformed from Pangu's navel. It was a place of utmost yin and evil, where all sinister and baleful auras in the Primordial Land gathered—a truly wicked place.

Suddenly, towering waves erupted from the Blood Sea, and a majestic blood-colored figure rose from within it.

The figure wore a blood-colored robe, his beard and hair crimson. Seated upon an exceedingly strange blood-colored lotus platform, he slowly emerged.

This person was none other than the infamous Ancestor Minghe.

At this moment, he too looked up at the sky. His gaze seemed able to pierce through illusion and reach the firmament as he muttered,

"This object is destined to be connected to my Asura Clan... Perhaps the Foundation of Sainthood I seek lies upon this Hongmeng Purple Gold List..."

In the western reaches of the Primordial Land stood a divine mountain named Kunlun.

Kunlun was boundlessly tall, nearly level with the Heavenly Pillar.

At the summit of the divine mountain stood an endless expanse of palaces, where the Primordial Great Beings Queen Mother of the West and Lord of the East resided.

The two of them also gazed toward the sky, their eyes filled with shock and burning desire.

"I wonder where such a treasure came from. It can actually mend the vault of Heaven—truly inconceivable..."

The other said,

"Even the six Sages were defeated before the Hongmeng Purple Gold List. Could it be that above Daluo Sages, there is still..."

The other hurriedly covered his mouth, preventing him from continuing.

At the far northern edge of the Primordial Land lay a vast ocean known as the North Nether.

Within the North Nether was nurtured a colossal creature: Demon Master Kunpeng, said to soar ninety thousand li in a single ascent.

At this moment, the colossal creature raised his head from the North Nether, his eyes fixed directly upon the sky.

Excitement seemed to flicker in his eyes. As he looked at the Hongmeng Purple Gold List above the firmament, it felt somewhat familiar, yet he could not recall where he had seen it before.

It left him utterly perplexed...

At the far southern edge of the Primordial Land was an exceptionally magnificent creature: the First Peacock between Heaven and Earth.

Though this Peacock was not an Innate Lifeform, he possessed the ability to obscure the secrets of Heaven. He was truly an anomaly.

The Peacock also held his head high, staring at the incomparably dazzling golden list in the sky.

His eyes revealed shock.

"Perhaps the opportunity to return to the ancestral bloodline lies upon this golden list... Since the Sages have no affinity with it... then there is still a sliver of hope..."

At this moment, the countless billions of living beings in the Primordial Land were all aflame with excitement.

As the saying went, treasures of Heaven and Earth belonged to the virtuous. Since the Sages had no affinity with it... others had a chance...

Just as the hearts of the Primordial Land's living beings began to stir, a giant hand that reached the heavens suddenly appeared in the depths of the firmament.

The moment they saw this heaven-reaching giant hand, the entire Primordial Land erupted.

As soon as the giant hand appeared, the endless void seemed to collapse beneath its pressure.

Its vast and majestic aura filled Heaven and Earth, leaving countless living beings of the Primordial Land dumbstruck.

Both were hands that covered the sky and blotted out the sun, yet the Dao Ancestor's hand was stronger than Sage Zhunti's by countless millions of times.

The moment this giant hand appeared, endless pressure shrouded the Primordial Land. Every living being in its path trembled in terror.

Its incomparably immense power made even the void quiver, as though it could barely withstand that vast Dao Intent.

Before the eyes of countless billions of living beings in the Primordial Land, this sky-covering giant hand reached directly for the Hongmeng Purple Gold List that filled the entire firmament.

All the great beings understood that such mighty heavenly power could only mean that the Dao Ancestor, who had long since merged with the Dao, had made his move.

Some had originally suspected that the Hongmeng Purple Gold List was the Dao Ancestor's magical treasure.

Now, it was clear that it was not.

Since the Dao Ancestor had acted, this heaven-spanning treasure would likely fall into his hands.

Yet at that moment,

the massive golden list filling the firmament suddenly blazed with purple-gold light, illuminating Heaven and Earth as a vast aura spread outward.

This aura did not seem any weaker than the Dao Ancestor's.

That endless aura seemed ready to devour Heaven and Earth and erase all things.

Endless purple-gold light began to evolve within the void, then formed into a Purple-Gold Giant Hand.

The scale and might of this giant hand seemed tenfold, even a hundredfold greater than the Dao Ancestor's, spanning an unknown number of billions of li.

Its sky-covering, sun-blotting presence was like the destruction of Heaven and Earth. The sheer commotion left countless billions of living beings horrified.

Heaven and Earth trembled, and the cosmos shook.

"Boom!"

A thunderous roar like mountains collapsing and seas overturning rang out.

The Dao Ancestor's giant hand was directly shattered. The purple-gold hand did not stop there; carrying boundless Great Dao rhythms, it struck straight into the depths of the firmament, intent on sweeping away everything in its path.

Moments later, the giant hand vanished into the depths of the sky.

Then a muffled groan rang out.

It seemed that some living being had been injured by that heaven-spanning giant hand...

All living beings were aghast, and some even turned ashen-faced.

The Dao Ancestor had been injured...

What a shocking thing was this?

Countless billions of living beings were terrified out of their wits.

The Dao Ancestor was no match for the Hongmeng Purple Gold List...

At that moment, the purple-gold colors of the Hongmeng Purple Gold List filling the firmament flared brilliantly, spreading across the heavens and through the entire void.

It directly obscured the Innate Pure Qi, replacing it with Purple-Gold Qi...

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

The Hongmeng Golden List had actually obscured the will of Dao Ancestor Hongjun... In its place stood the will of the Purple-Gold Divine List...

This meant that... at this moment, the Primordial Land had changed heavens...
