Dao Ancestor Injured, Huang Changed the Sky

"Hongmeng Purple Gold List?"

The countless billions of living beings in the Primordial Land all raised their heads to the sky, gazing at that majestic ranking.

They saw those five great characters radiating boundless Dao resonance and endless divine might, as if they possessed the very origin of the Great Dao.

Just a few words could shake the entire Primordial Land.

This was the thing that had first repelled the Three Sages of the East, then struck down the Two Sages of the West, and even forced Nuwa to retreat in defeat.

It had also mended the nearly collapsing heavenly dome.

This object was clearly a supreme treasure, wielding unfathomable divine power.

The six Sages of heaven and earth had no connection to this treasure.

Thus, it was bound to benefit the other living beings of the Primordial Land.

Whoever obtained this Hongmeng Purple Gold List would surely shake the world.

From then on, the Primordial Land would see a new sky!

In an instant, the breathing of all great powers grew heavy, and the desires within their hearts surged upward.

Above the nine heavens, there was an Eternal Immortal Palace, its aura ethereal and elusive, hidden deep within the celestial dome. This was the Heavenly Court.

Within the Heavenly Court, two peerlessly graceful great powers were gazing up at the sky.

Their gazes seemed able to pierce through illusion and see through heaven and earth.

The one at the lead was none other than Heavenly Emperor Dijun, the chief of all demons, commanding the countless demon hosts:

"What exactly is this Hongmeng Purple Gold List? Even the Sages are no match for it? Truly beyond imagination. With this object's emergence, even the Demon Race's fortune is affected... I wonder if this is a blessing or a curse for the Demon Race..."

The other was Eastern Emperor Taiyi, who commanded the war against the Witch Race. He too was now looking up at 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 be mine?"

With this thought, a fervent gleam appeared in Eastern Emperor Taiyi's eyes.

The Heavenly Emperor frowned slightly: "Transmit Our imperial decree: all demons of the Primordial Land, return swiftly to the Heavenly Court and your respective Dao fields, and await the changing situation in stillness."

At the very center of the Primordial Land stood a colossal super-hall, its aura majestic and vast, brimming with boundless fortune. This was the Ancestral Witch Grand Hall, the sacred ground of the Witch Race.

At that moment, ten massive, towering figures manifested—the twelve Ancestral Witches who held up heaven and earth.

The one at the lead was Dijiang, the chief of the twelve Ancestral Witches:

"Zhurong and Gonggong have gone too far, stirring up such a calamity... bringing disaster upon the Primordial Land... causing the Witch Race to bear so much hatred for nothing... utterly detestable!"

Another behind him spoke:

"Big brother, those two have committed such a slaughter-karma; I fear they will soon face their destined tribulation and depart. Then, with two of the twelve Ancestral Witches gone, how can we still form the Twelve Divine Demon Grand Formation? How can we still contend with the innate Demon Race?"

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

Dijiang, at the lead, wore a grim expression as he raised his head to look at the sky-obscuring Hongmeng Purple Gold List.

"Pass down the order: all Witch Race members return to the sacred land, preserve our strength, and watch the changes of heaven and earth in stillness."

Deep beneath the Primordial Land lay a special region.

This region was a wondrous underground space, hiding a vast and boundless Blood Sea.

Legend had it that this Blood Sea was formed from Pangu's navel—a place of ultimate yin and ultimate evil, where all the dark and sinister auras of the Primordial Land converged. It was truly a land of extreme wickedness.

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

This figure wore a blood-red robe, with hair and beard both crimson, seated upon an extremely bizarre blood-colored lotus platform as he slowly emerged.

This person was none other than the infamous Ancestor Minghe.

He too now looked up at the sky, his gaze seeming to pierce through illusion and reach the celestial dome, muttering to himself:

"This object is fated for my Asura Clan... The foundation of this old man's sainthood may well lie in this Hongmeng Purple Gold List..."

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

This Kunlun was immeasurably tall, nearly level with the Heavenly Pillar.

Atop the divine mountain lay an endless expanse of halls, where the great powers Queen Mother of the West and Lord of the East resided.

These two were also gazing up at the sky, their eyes revealing both shock and burning desire.

"Such a treasure—where did it come from? That it could mend the Heavenly Palace is truly beyond comprehension..."

The other spoke: "The six Sages retreated before this Hongmeng Purple Gold List. Could it be that beyond the Great Luo Sage realm, there is..."

The first quickly covered his mouth, not letting him continue.

In the far northern reaches of the Primordial Wilderness lay a vast ocean called the Northern Abyss.

Within the Northern Abyss dwelled a colossal creature—none other than the Demon Master Kunpeng, famed for soaring ninety thousand li on a single updraft.

At this moment, the behemoth raised its head from the Northern Abyss, its gaze fixed straight upon the heavens.

Excitement flickered in its eyes as it stared at the Hongmeng Purple Gold List hanging in the sky. A faint sense of familiarity stirred within it, yet it could not recall where it had seen it before.

This left it deeply perplexed...

In the far southern reaches of the Primordial Wilderness lived an extraordinarily magnificent creature—the First Peacock born between heaven and earth.

Though not an Innate Lifeform, this peacock possessed the ability to obscure the workings of fate, making it a true anomaly.

This peacock also lifted its proud head, gazing at the dazzling golden list that spanned the sky.

A look of shock filled its eyes:

"Perhaps the chance to return to the ancestral lineage lies upon this golden list... Since the sages have no part in it... then there is a thread of hope for the rest..."

Countless billions of beings across the Primordial Wilderness were stirred to the core.

As the saying goes, treasures of heaven and earth belong to those with virtue. If the sages had no claim... then others had a chance...

Just as the hearts of the Primordial beings were wavering, a giant hand that blotted out the sky suddenly appeared deep within the heavens.

The moment this heaven-spanning hand emerged, the entire Primordial Wilderness seemed to explode.

As the giant hand appeared, the endless void appeared to collapse under its weight.

Its vast, majestic aura flooded heaven and earth, leaving countless beings in the Primordial Wilderness stunned and gaping.

Both were hands that covered the sky and obscured the sun, yet the Dao Ancestor's hand was infinitely more powerful than Sage Zhunti's—by millions upon millions of times.

Once this giant hand appeared, an overwhelming pressure enveloped the Primordial Wilderness. Every living thing along its path trembled uncontrollably.

The boundless energy made the void itself quake, as if it could barely withstand the immense Dao Intent.

Under the gaze of countless billions of beings, this sky-covering hand reached directly for the Hongmeng Purple Gold List that filled the heavens.

Every great power understood that such majestic heavenly might could only belong to the Dao Ancestor, who had long since merged with the Dao.

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

Now it was clear that was not the case.

Since the Dao Ancestor had made his move, it seemed this heaven-spanning treasure would fall into his hands.

But just then.

The vast golden list that filled the sky suddenly blazed with brilliant purple-gold light, illuminating heaven and earth as its immense aura spread outward.

This aura seemed in no way inferior to the Dao Ancestor's.

The endless energy appeared ready to devour the heavens and swallow the earth, erasing everything in its path.

Boundless purple-gold light began to evolve within the void, eventually manifesting into a Purple-Gold Giant Hand.

The scale and might of this hand seemed ten or even a hundred times greater than the Dao Ancestor's—spanning countless tens of thousands of miles.

Its sky-covering, sun-obscuring posture seemed capable of annihilating heaven and earth. The commotion was so immense that countless billions of beings were terrified.

Heaven and earth trembled; the universe quaked.

"Boom!"

A thunderous roar like a mountain collapsing and the sea overturning.

It directly shattered the Dao Ancestor's giant hand. The Purple-Gold Giant Hand did not stop there, carrying the vast and boundless rhythm of the Great Dao as it struck deep into the heavens, intent on sweeping away everything.

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

Then came a muffled groan.

It seemed some being had been wounded by this heaven-spanning hand...

All living beings were utterly shocked; some even turned ashen-faced.

The Dao Ancestor had been wounded...

What a horrifying revelation this was!

Countless billions of beings were stricken with terror.

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

At that moment, the Hongmeng Purple Gold List that filled the heavens blazed with purple and gold light, spreading across the sky and extending through the entire void.

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

The faces of countless beings in the Primordial Wilderness changed drastically.

The Hongmeng Purple Gold List had actually obscured the will of Dao Ancestor Hongjun... replacing it with the will of the Purple-Gold Divine List...

This meant... that in this moment, the heavens of the Primordial Wilderness had been exchanged.
