Root of the Five Qi, Perfected Reincarnation

Bai Yu glanced at the Witch and Demon Clans confronting each other within heaven and earth, as well as the Heaven and Earth Mighty Ones watching the spectacle. He said nothing, entered the River of Time, and continued traveling upstream through it.

...Hongjun's sainthood...the Dao-Demon Conflict...the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation...the World-Opening Great Tribulation...

Within the River of Time, Bai Yu silently watched the giant man, standing tall as heaven and earth like a god or demon, fall.

The current point in time was the very beginning of this world's creation.

Bai Yu sought only those five Innate Spiritual Roots. He was utterly uninterested in anything else—not even the Chaos Bell of this world.

That was because Bai Yu knew perfectly well that this world's Chaos Bell contained only Origin Law.

He could mass-produce magical treasures containing Origin Law, so naturally, he did not care about it.

He raised his eyes toward the west and reached out with a grasp. The Innate Spiritual Root, the Bodhi Tree, appeared in Bai Yu's palm.

After sensing it carefully, he found its dense innate metal vital energy to be the root and origin of this world's innate metal vital energy.

The origin of vital energy differed from the origin of laws. Every world possessed only one strand of vital energy origin; it was vital and indispensable.

If Bai Yu had not beaten Hongjun up, how could Hongjun possibly have given him something so important?

If Bai Yu were going to remain in this world forever, then it would not matter how he wrecked things. As long as the origin vital energy remained in this world, there would be no problem.

Yet Bai Yu clearly could not remain in this world.

Without the Origin of Five Elements Vital Energy, this heaven and earth might not collapse outright, but with its origin incomplete, this world would have to replenish its vital energy origin before it could advance any further.

And the cost and time required to replenish that vital energy origin would be impossible to estimate.

Using the vital energy origin of a Middle Thousand World to condense the innate origin five qi was also feasible.

In the Great Thousand Primordial World where Bai Yu resided, one could roam the myriad heavens and worlds upon reaching the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, let alone the Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.

Even creating a world was extremely simple for a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

However, the more complete a world's laws were and the higher its rank, the more difficult it was to create.

Still, creating a complete, top-tier Middle Thousand World might be somewhat difficult for a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, but it posed no difficulty at all for a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

That was because a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal who had completely mastered an Origin Great Dao could command Origin Law as easily as moving an arm. Even without comprehending it, they could forcibly seize and control it.

For instance, what if a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal created a Middle Thousand World but it lacked many Origin Laws?

What else could they do? They could simply seize Origin Laws and stuff them inside, use an Origin Great Dao to control the Origin Laws, and forcibly fuse them together.

They could even incorporate an Origin Great Dao they controlled, allowing that Middle Thousand World to transform into a Great Thousand World. So long as a world bore an Origin Great Dao, even if it bore only one, it was still a Great Thousand World.

However, a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal could create only one Great Thousand World, unless that Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal controlled more than one Origin Great Dao.

Therefore, for those saint disciples, obtaining the vital energy origin of a Middle Thousand World to condense the innate origin five qi within their bodies was actually quite simple. After all, a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal could create a Middle Thousand World with a wave of their hand.

But Bai Yu did not have that privilege. He could only rely on himself.

Moreover, Bai Yu understood that even if he brought this Bodhi Tree back to the Great Thousand Primordial World, and even if he carefully cultivated and nourished it, even if its essence shared the same root and origin, it would still be impossible for it to grow into one of the Innate Spiritual Roots of the Great Thousand Primordial World.

After all, the root of a world's vital energy was unique.

"Though it is somewhat disappointing, it is still not bad."

Bai Yu was somewhat disappointed, but he also knew that forging the deepest foundation and condensing the most supreme Immortal and Indestructible Body would not be so simple.

A foundation forged from the innate vital energy origin of a Great Thousand World was the deepest, and the Immortal and Indestructible Body condensed from it was also the most supreme.

Yet how difficult was it to find a Great Thousand World? Even if he found one, with Bai Yu's current strength, he probably would not be able to defeat its inhabitants...

"Still, it does not matter. Once I attain the Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, I can simply create a Great Thousand World myself..." Bai Yu murmured softly.

With the system's Enlightenment Function, Bai Yu could now easily comprehend numerous Origin Laws. Once he reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, he would be able to easily comprehend numerous Origin Great Daos.

For others, comprehending multiple Origin Great Daos was nearly impossible.

But Bai Yu was different.

Others created a Great Thousand World and used the Origin Great Dao they comprehended to suppress it, but the Great Thousand World he created would contain more than one Origin Great Dao.

Even the current Great Thousand Primordial World would be inferior to the Great Thousand World Bai Yu would create in the future!

Bai Yu guessed that the current Great Thousand Primordial World contained only forty-nine Origin Great Daos.

Bai Yu thought that once he created a Great Thousand World containing every Origin Great Dao in the future, he would take its vital energy origin and use it to forge himself the most powerful Immortal and Indestructible Body!

Mm...

As Bai Yu thought about it, a faint smile appeared on his face. In an instant, dazzling golden lotuses bloomed everywhere throughout this world.

Though it was all merely an idea for now, Bai Yu remained confident that he could turn it into reality.

After collecting the remaining Ginseng Fruit Tree, Peach Tree of Immortality, Fusang Wood, and Huangzhong Plum, Bai Yu did not leave this world immediately.

He entered the River of Time once more and arrived at the moment of Houtu's Samsara Transformation. When this world's laws of reincarnation became complete, he directly activated the system's auxiliary Enlightenment Function and began comprehending the Origin Law of Reincarnation.

Time passed in the blink of an eye. In less than a single yuanhui, Bai Yu had comprehended this world's Origin Law of Reincarnation to the realm of perfection.

Although this world's Origin Law was far inferior to the Origin Law of the Great Thousand Primordial World, he had no choice. The reincarnation laws of the Great Thousand Primordial World were currently incomplete, so he could only settle for the next best thing and comprehend this world's laws of reincarnation.

Still, it was not much of a problem. Once the Houtu of the Great Thousand Primordial World underwent Samsara Transformation and the Great Dao of Reincarnation became complete and flawless, he could make up for it then.

Moreover, if he wished to comprehend Origin Great Daos absent from the Great Thousand Primordial World in the future, he could also go to other Great Thousand Worlds to comprehend them.

After all, Bai Yu's goal was to comprehend every Origin Great Dao!

After comprehending the laws of reincarnation, every purpose of Bai Yu's journey had been perfectly fulfilled.

With a single step, he vanished from where he stood and left this world directly.

Outer Heavens, Purple Sky Palace.

"He has finally left..."

Hongjun sat cross-legged on the cushion at the center of the high platform, his eyes lowered as he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure on him had truly been immense.

Fortunately, this Outer Realm Saint bore no ill will. Well, although he had taken this world's Origin of Five Elements Vital Energy, beaten him up, and even severed the Heavenly Dao, he bore no ill will!

Otherwise, if he truly had malicious intentions, he would probably have destroyed the world outright...

Hongjun looked at the Origin Law of Destiny in his hand and fell silent.
