Pangu Creates the Heavens, Daoist Hongjun, the Mystery of His Origins

Opening his eyes, Lu Changsheng was somewhat dazed. He couldn't remember who he was or why he was there.

It's as if I can't remember anything at all.

The world was shrouded in a gray haze, devoid of any living beings; a deathly silence that was terrifying.

In such a place, time seems to have no meaning; everything appears to be still, yet everything also seems to be in motion.

However, at that moment...

As a rumbling sound rang out, a scene appeared before Lu Changsheng's eyes.

In a chaotic world, normally nothing can be seen.

However, the Heavenly Dao Mark condensed in his eyes, allowing Lu Changsheng to see some images.

At this moment, there was boundless chaos, which should have been shrouded in darkness, with no concept of time or space.

But at that moment, figures suddenly appeared.

Each figure exuded an aura of invincibility, surrounded by a supreme Dao, standing atop the River of Time, possessing unparalleled power.

One! Ten! One hundred! Five hundred! One thousand! Two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine!

A total of 2,999 such terrifying figures appeared.

Each of these figures wields a power of the Great Dao, and each can be considered a Great Luo- level expert.

Moreover, he was definitely not an ordinary Great Luo level expert; he was Great Luo expert with one foot in the Creation Realm.

Their bodies were so large that they defied description, and each figure was not human-shaped, but rather strange and bizarre.

Some resemble beetles, some are covered in tentacles, and some are even vast oceans of blood, all strangely shaped like demons. Even if you were an immortal emperor, you would be terrified if you saw their true forms!

It wasn't that they were ugly, but rather that the aura they exuded was terrifying.

Nearly three thousand figures were gathered around a giant blue egg.

They were whispering to each other, not communicating with words or thoughts, but with an ancient form of vowel communication. A single character represented all the thoughts in their minds, achieving a state of perfect understanding.

Just then, the giant blue egg began to shake violently, and in its place, a beam of axe light appeared.

Then an unparalleled figure appeared in this Chaos World.

This is a human figure, not some strange or unusual figure.

This figure stood tall and immeasurably high, with limbs and eyes, exuding an aura of chaos.

He held a divine axe in his hand, gazing at the two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine figures.

This being, who was like a demon god, stared at this person as if facing a formidable enemy.

Boom!

Finally, a great battle was about to break out. The man wielding the divine axe, with invincible strength, went to slay the Three Thousand Devil Gods.

With a single axe strike, the heavens and earth shattered, and countless stars turned to dust. Fortunately, apart from these demons and gods, there were no other living beings in the Chaos World.

The great battle between the two lasted for countless years, because in the Chaos World, there was no concept of time; it could be a breath, a day, or even a trillion years.

Chaos knows no time.

But the man wielding the divine axe was invincible, like the master of heaven and earth. His divine axe rippled with axe light that spanned trillions of miles, possessing the Power of Principle chaos. With each swing of his axe, several demon gods would die under his blade.

But these demons are not to be trifled with.

Various terrifying Principle erupted, engulfing the Chaos World. The most powerful of them all was a demon god who stood on the River of Time.

Time flowed through his hands; he seemed to control the power of time, condensing a celestial blade that could actually fight against a man wielding a divine axe.

Lu Changsheng witnessed this unprecedented battle.

Although his consciousness was clouded, Lu Changsheng had memorized every move and technique of this unprecedented battle.

This is a battle of epic proportions.

Moreover, it's not just a simple suppression of realms, but a true contest between martial arts, Divine Ability, beliefs, and Primordial Spirit.

It can be said that it fully demonstrates the strength of a powerful being.

If it were a mortal, just one glance, even a single glance, would be enough to achieve the Immortal King Arts Emperor level, and within a hundred years, he could become a Celestial King; at most, within five hundred years, he could become a Celestial Emperor.

That's right, it's that terrifying. Just one glance is enough to make someone a martial arts emperor.

Lu Changsheng witnessed all of this. Lu Changsheng memorized every move of the Six Realms Ancestral God, as well as the methods by which the two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Demon Gods manipulated the Principle.

It can be said that Lu Changsheng gained unparalleled improvement simply by watching this great battle.

His martial arts consciousness, his combat consciousness, his use of the Primordial Spirit, his use of the Principle, and his use of heaven, earth, sun, and moon have all been enhanced to an unprecedented degree.

In other words, Lu Changsheng used to rely on simple realm suppression in battles. However, after mastering the Heavenly Emperor Law, he used it to gather other great Divine Ability to suppress his enemies.

But Lu Changsheng is different now. After watching this battle, his combat awareness has been enhanced a billionfold. Now, Lu Changsheng can draw on everything in heaven and earth and use everything in the world to fight.

In his hands, a single grain of sand could destroy a sun.

In his hand, a single leaf could rival a magical treasure.

Furthermore, it can take advantage of favorable timing, location, and everything else it may need.

As for the Power of Principle, he can work with it like a fish in water, making full use of each Principle without any waste.

The great battle between the Six Realms Ancestral Gods and the Three Thousand Devil Gods was unprecedented in history, and this great battle overturned Lu Changsheng's understanding of martial arts.

The Three Thousand Great Daos Divine Ability are unleashed.

All sorts of Law Technique were unleashed at once.

From the simplest to the most complex.

One move can evolve into a myriad of moves.

One method can eliminate all other methods.

Then it went from the most complex to the simplest.

The Three Thousand Great Daos Divine Ability condensed into a single fist, a single palm, and a single sword.

Lu Changsheng carefully memorized these things.

He was in a state of confusion, and it was precisely because of this state that Lu Changsheng remembered every scene, as if someone had given him a sudden enlightenment, allowing Lu Changsheng to comprehend this supreme skill.

From simple to complex.

From complex to simple.

One sword is 108,000 swords.

One hundred and eight thousand swords are one sword.

This level of battle should have been beyond Lu Changsheng's reach, but due to this fortuitous fortuitous opportunity, Lu Changsheng obtained this supreme fortune.

"Roar!"

Finally, under the roar of the Six Realms Ancestral Gods, the divine axe rippled with billions of divine lights, piercing through countless planes, and finally cleaved the last demon god to death.

Immediately afterwards, the Six Realms Ancestral God devoured all the Principle of the Demon God, refining each Principle into his body. But at that moment, one of the Demon Gods suddenly moved, transformed into human form, and disappeared into the Chaos World.

Of the 2,999 demon gods, only he escaped. It is unknown which demon god he was. The other demon Principle died and left their Principle here, including the demon god who escaped.

The Six Realms Ancestral Gods watched all of this silently.

His expression was calm as he sat cross-legged, refining all the Power of Principle.

It was still a timeless chaos, and he didn't know how long he had been refining it. In the end, he had refined all 2,999 Great Dao Principle.

After he finished refining it, he seemed to be deep in thought, as if he had encountered some problem.

He kept thinking, kept thinking.

It may have been pondered for trillions of years, or perhaps only for a day and a night.

Finally, he stood up.

A terrifying aura swept across the entire Chaos World, and all the violent energy quieted down at this moment, with the earth, fire, wind, and thunder completely still.

"I am Pangu, and I was the one who created heaven and earth."

His voice rang out, echoing throughout the entire Chaos World, and at that moment he held the divine axe in his hand.

With a single axe stroke, he cleaved the heavens and the earth in two.

This axe strike transcends all descriptions of power; it cannot be described by ordinary reason. It surpasses time, surpasses space, surpasses everything.

Under the axe's flash, Lu Changsheng felt a chill run down his spine.

This is truly immeasurable power.

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom!

The scene of creation appeared, and light appeared in the Chaos World. Heaven and earth were no longer a chaotic mess; there was light, stars, galaxies, the universe, and Myriad Realms.

Those who are pure become heaven.

The primordial chaos transformed into the earth.

The vastness of heaven and earth is the vastness of the universe.

Pangu stood tall between heaven and earth, constantly separating the two realms, and in the process of separation, countless galaxies were born.

Lu Changsheng witnessed all of this.

The scene of the birth of heaven and earth appeared behind him like a divine picture.

This is a divine image depicting the creation of heaven and earth.

After countless years, Pangu completely separated heaven and earth.

But at that moment, a figure appeared in the world. This figure was a powerful being of the Creation Realm, whose aura was no weaker than that of Pangu.

However, after he appeared, he did not take immediate action. Instead, he held a child in his arms and handed the child over to Pangu.

Pangu shrunk his body to its normal size and then held the child in his arms.

The two exchanged a few words, and then the Daoist priest disappeared from the spot.

But after a long time, the Daoist returned, covered in blood and severely injured. He was on the verge of death, so Pangu intervened and injected streams of chaotic Principle into the Daoist's body.

Finally, the Chaos World trembled, and an even more terrifying powerhouse appeared.

Pangu entrusted the child to the Daoist priest and went to meet the enemy alone.

After an unknown amount of time, Pangu finally returned, wounded, but the Chaos World fell completely silent.

However, after Pangu returned, he always looked very serious, and it was unclear what he was thinking about.

After a long time, Pangu communicated with the Daoist priest. The Daoist priest kept shaking his head, but Pangu's expression was extremely solemn. In the end, he seemed to have made up his mind.

Holding the Pangu Axe, he left the Chaos World to suppress his enemies, waging war for hundreds of billions of years.

He eventually returned, battered and bruised, but he had done what he was supposed to do.

After returning to the Chaos World, Pangu spoke some words to the old Daoist priest, and then he collapsed with a thud.

His eyes transformed into the sun and the moon.

His physical body transformed into countless mountains and rivers, his blood into rivers, and his breath into wind and thunder.

This is Pangu creating heaven and earth.

After Pangu transformed heaven and earth, all things instantly revived, birds sang and flowers bloomed, and all kinds of living beings were born.

Within that Sun Emperor Star, several Golden Crow were born.

True Dragon were born from the ocean.

One after another, True Phoenix were born in the Azure Sky.

On land, one after another, Qilin were born.

Furthermore, Pangu's Primordial Spirit transformed into three beams of azure light, and twelve beings resembling demon gods were born from his blood.

All things are born, and everything appears vibrant and full of life.

The old Daoist priest also disappeared from the spot.

A very long time passed.

Suddenly, a voice appeared behind Lu Changsheng.

"Fellow Daoist, have you finished reading?"

A sound rang out.

Lu Changsheng was jolted awake.

He woke up from his dream.

Upon opening his eyes, he quickly saw an old Daoist priest sitting cross-legged in front of him.

The scene of the beginning of all things has disappeared, replaced by another world.

An old man sat cross-legged in front of him.

There was a blue lotus under the old man's seat, and a blue lotus also appeared under Lu Changsheng's seat.

"May I ask who you are, senior?"

Lu Changsheng asked slowly. He could sense that the person in front of him was beyond his imagination and was definitely not a guardian or anything like that.

"This humble Daoist, Hongjun, greets fellow Daoist."

The other person wore a calm smile, his tone was very calm but full of vicissitudes, and there was an indescribable wisdom in his eyes.

Lu Changsheng was completely stunned.

Hongjun.

In ancient Chinese mythology, the teacher of the Three Pure Ones was an being who was one with the Dao of Heavenly Dao.

"Are you the progenitor of the Hong clan?"

Lu Changsheng couldn't help but ask.

No.

Hongjun shook his head and said calmly, "However, the ancestor of the Hong Clan was my disciple, and he took my surname."

Daoist Hongjun's words shocked Lu Changsheng.

The progenitor of the Hong clan was his disciple, so wouldn't the Three Pure Ones be his grand-disciples?

However, upon closer reflection, this is the realm of immortals, and it's impossible for me to use ancient Chinese mythology to understand all of this.

Many myths contain exaggerated elements, so Lu Changsheng didn't find it particularly surprising.

"And who is this senior?"

Lu Changsheng continued to ask.

Daoist Hongjun smiled slightly and said, "You saw me in your dream."

This is what I mean.

Lu Changsheng instantly understood.

This is also a stroke of luck.

In the dream, I was on equal footing with Pangu.

At this moment, Lu Changsheng finally understood.

The other person of good fortune that Bai Yuan mentioned is probably this person.

Clearly, after Pangu Creates the Heavens, this Primordial World was guarded by Daoist Hongjun.

But Lu Changsheng still had many doubts.

Daoist Hongjun could also see that Lu Changsheng had many doubts. He waved his hand, and in an instant, a tea set appeared in front of the two of them.

The jade tea set is exquisitely beautiful. Every drop of water used to brew the tea is Nine Heavens Divine Water; even Immortal King could break through to become a celestial emperor after drinking just one drop.

As for tea, it is tea formed from the condensation of the Principle of the Great Dao. The tea of the Great Dao, just by smelling it, is enough to improve a person's aptitude and physical body.

This is the most divine of all divine objects.

However, Daoist Hongjun personally brewed a pot of tea for Lu Changsheng and then spoke.

"There is no concept of time here. From the outside perspective, no matter how long you stay here, it will not exceed the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. So, if you have any questions, just ask them. I have been waiting for you here for so many years to answer your questions."

"Fellow Daoist, please ask whatever you wish. I can answer all your questions."

Daoist Hongjun said with absolute confidence.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng was overjoyed, for he did indeed have something to ask.

"May I ask, Senior Hongjun, do you know my identity?"

This is Lu Changsheng's first question.

This was also a question that had puzzled him for many years.

However, the sound faded away.

Daoist Hongjun's expression inexplicably became somewhat strange.
