Tai Yi did not pause. His voice suddenly rose, carrying the resolve to sever all things and the fervor of describing the supreme realm.
"Taiyi manifests billions of avatars, and once sufficient accumulation is achieved, everything will fall into place, allowing one to break into the realm of Great Luo."
"It means gathering together all those billions of avatars scattered across All Heavens and Myriad Worlds, across past and future!"
"Along with their experiences, insights, and even the spacetime imprints and karmic connections contained within their very existence, all of it must be gathered, smelted, and returned to one!"
"The projections of every 'self' in the past, present, and future, every possibility of every 'self,' must be completely unified into one!"
Every word Tai Yi spoke seemed to contain a Great Dao True Word, making the space within the quiet chamber tremble faintly.
"Those who attain this realm will undergo an ultimate leap in the essence of their True Spirit! From then on, they will truly transcend the River of Time and look down upon eternity!"
"The past is fixed; the essence of their existence cannot be altered! No matter how one returns to the past, one cannot erase the cause of their birth!"
"The future is unfixed, yet it cannot bind the fruit of their transcendence! Their figure exists in every branch of the future, yet none can shackle them!"
"One Attainment, Eternal Attainment! Once attained, their Great Luo Dao Fruit will be acknowledged across the past, present, future, and every dimension of spacetime!"
"Eternal and Undying! Unless every trace of their existence throughout All Heavens and Myriad Worlds, past and future—including the cause of their birth and the fruit of their gathering and return to one—"
"Can be completely erased from every dimension of spacetime at the same time."
"Otherwise, even if the Prehistoric World shatters and Chaos is reborn, their True Spirit can still gather anew from nothingness and return in a new era!"
"This is true transcendence—unaffected by Cataclysmic Tribulations, unbound by the birth and destruction of worlds—the true Great Luo!"
Tai Yi's voice was like a great bell, echoing endlessly in the depths of Lu Jun's soul.
So that was how it was!
Taiyi manifested billions of avatars!
Great Luo meant Unity of All Selves!
One Attainment, Eternal Attainment!
Eternal and Undying!
This was the true path of cultivating Great Luo!
Even merely cultivating as a Grand Unity Immortal was vastly, vastly stronger than cultivating the Five Qi in the Chest as they did now!
Under the current cultivation system for Grand Unity Immortals, once the Five Qi in the Chest were sealed, one would fall in realm.
But if one manifested billions of avatars, then even if the Five Qi in the Chest of one avatar were sealed, countless other avatars would still remain.
Unless one could seal the Five Qi in the Chest of all the endless Grand Unity Immortal avatars at once!
But that... was far too difficult!
At that thought, Lu Jun suddenly recalled someone.
Ancestor Minghe!
Four Hundred and Eighty Million Blood God Sons avatars. If the avatars were not destroyed, Minghe would not perish; if the Blood Sea did not run dry, Minghe would not die.
If anyone's path was closest to this method of cultivating a Grand Unity Immortal, it was undoubtedly Minghe!
At that thought, endless inspiration flashed through Lu Jun's mind.
Perhaps he truly could try walking this path of the Grand Unity Immortal.
After all, he had the system!
More importantly, the system could evolve endless stars!
If he could obtain Minghe's method of manifesting the Four Hundred and Eighty Million Blood God Sons, perhaps he too could manifest billions of avatars.
He could entrust his True Spirit to the endless stars!
Then, as long as the stars remained, he would remain!
At the thought of it, Lu Jun's breathing grew several degrees heavier.
But immediately afterward, he sensed something was wrong.
This cultivation method posed no problem for becoming a Grand Unity Immortal, but cultivating to become a Grand Unity Golden Immortal was nearly impossible!
"Uncle, this cultivation method may be powerful, but its difficulty must be unimaginable, right?"
"Just gathering together every timeline of oneself across the past and future is nearly impossible."
"At the time of the Creation of Heaven, Pangu would attack anyone attempting to cultivate through that moment as though they were Chaos Demon Gods."
"If one cannot gather the past and future, and cannot pass through the moment of the Creation of Heaven guarded by Pangu, then wouldn't Great Luo forever remain unattainable?"
As he said this, realization suddenly dawned on him. "So that's it. So that's it!"
Seeing Lu Jun's expression, a faint smile appeared on Tai Yi's face.
"It seems you understand as well. Precisely because many people once walked this path but were unable to see it through, the current path of cultivating the Five Qi in the Chest and the Three Flowers on the Crown eventually came into being."
"But even so, we have never given up on walking the Great Luo path of One Attainment, Eternal Attainment once more."
"This time, Empress Wa and several other Saints went to the end of the River of Time to witness Pangu's Creation of Heaven. That too is an attempt."
At this point, he paused briefly, his gaze carrying a trace of expectation.
"If Empress Wa and the others truly gain Pangu's acknowledgment, they will have a chance to withstand the axe strike of Creation of Heaven and truly return to the eternal past."
"They could then leave behind their own imprints at the beginning of the Creation of Heaven and attain the Chaos Demon God's Foundation."
"Then, if they find a way to gather together the Chaos Demon God's Foundation, they may have a chance to attain Eternal Grand Unity."
Lu Jun silently licked his lips upon hearing this.
At this moment, he finally understood everything.
So this was the reason Tai Yi had spoken of gaining Pangu's acknowledgment!
Return to before the Creation of Heaven!
Attain the Chaos Demon God's Foundation!
Then achieve Unity of All Selves and One Attainment, Eternal Attainment!
But even though he understood this, he still knew just how difficult it was.
Even if Nuwa and the others successfully returned to before the Creation of Heaven, they still could not attain Great Luo.
Because once they returned to the past and acquired the foundation of Chaos Demon Gods, they would be struck dead by a single blow of Pangu's axe upon returning!
This was simply not a path that could be completed.
Unless their strength was enough to withstand Pangu's Heaven Opening Divine Axe and return to the present!
But... could they truly withstand that strike?
"Uncle, so the reason Empress Nuwa and the others have not appeared for these three hundred years is that they have already fallen at the time of the Creation of Heaven?"
Lu Jun finally understood why Nuwa had not returned.
Because she had fallen at the time of the Creation of Heaven!
Tai Yi nodded, then shook his head. "I do not know either."
"You do not know?"
Tai Yi spread his hands. "The Saints returned to the past of the River of Time, where there is endless primordial Chaos. I would not dare take even one look!"
At the end of the River of Time, after the Creation of Heaven!
Violent vortices of energy tore at the Spacetime Structure, while shattered fragments of laws shot in every direction like deadly meteor showers.
The Chaos Qi was so dense it seemed tangible, and every surge carried the primordial might of Opening of Heaven and Earth, of resetting Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind.
Near this violent "sea of origins," six figures radiating eternal and indestructible light were struggling to anchor themselves.
They were the six Heavenly Dao Saints—the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Jieyin, and Zhunti—who had traveled upstream from the future, seeking to glimpse the secrets of the Creation of Heaven and attain Eternal Grand Unity.
Their current location was still some distance from the core of the "Battle of Creation of Heaven," that earthshaking battle which determined the Destiny of the Prehistoric World—a distance that seemed short, yet was actually separated by endless dangerous Chaos.
Yet even at this relatively "safe" observation point, Great God Pangu's unmatched, heaven-opening terrifying pressure—
Pressed down upon every Saint's heart like hundreds of millions of jun of divine mountains, heavy and real.
Even their Saintly Bodies felt increasingly sluggish, while the light of their primordial spirits wavered under its weight.
As far as the eye could see, in the depths of Chaos—
That colossal figure standing between heaven and earth was the only "Dao," the only "power"!
Every swing of his Heaven Opening Divine Axe was no mere physical slash. It was a judgment upon the entire era of Chaos.
It was the end of "nothingness," and the birth of "existence"!
Where the axe light passed, Chaos burst apart like boiling soup. Clear and turbid separated, while Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind surged and took form in a frenzy.
And for Chaos Demon Gods who dared challenge this world-creating might, their fates could only be described as tragic.
A streak of axe light spanning eternity flashed past. An ancient Demon God of unknown size and breadth, shaped like a colossal turtle and bearing a map of Chaos stars upon its back—
Did not even have time to cry out before its indestructible shell, together with its immense primordial spirit, silently vanished like fragile glass.
Only an enormous void vortex remained in place, madly Devouring Chaos.
Pangu's figure seemed to grow slightly larger, and his Dao seemed to become slightly stronger!
On the other side, a Demon God that controlled the fires of annihilation was surrounded by black flames capable of burning a Great Thousand World to ashes.
It roared and charged toward Pangu, attempting to snuff out the fire of creation.
Pangu did not even turn around. He merely made a casual backhanded sweep.
The axe light was as elusive as an antelope hanging its horns, leaving no trace, yet it precisely severed the root law of those annihilating flames.
The Demon God's roar stopped abruptly. Its immense body, along with the world-burning black flames, instantly became specks of ash and scattered amid the surging axe light.
The fire of creation burning around Pangu grew ever more intense!
"ROAR—!!!"
A roar of utmost brutality, filled with an unyielding will to battle heaven and earth, tore through Chaos!
A gigantic ape, crimson as blood and covered in knotted muscles, wielded a black iron staff that stirred the winds and clouds of Chaos. It charged fiercely toward Pangu at a speed beyond time and space!
Its eyes were blood-red, and battle intent boiled around its body. It was none other than one of the supreme beings among the Chaos Demon Gods, renowned for its battle instincts and savage strength—the Chaos Demon Ape!
"What a Demon Ape!"
