After merging the Number of Zhou Heavens Pangu Origin into Zhou Mountain, Taichu stopped paying attention to it.
"Once Zhou Mountain is completely stabilized, the remaining Original Source will slowly spread throughout the Primordial World with Zhou Mountain at its center, gradually strengthening it! This will not be accomplished in a day. The groundwork has been laid; all that remains is to wait for the right time!"
"Let me forge the strongest Primordial World and slowly push it, step by step, to the level of the True Realm!"
As Taichu's words fell, a ripple passed through the Void, followed by a streak of red light shooting straight toward his chest.
Seeing this, Taichu summoned Hun Yuan Power and directly drew it into his hand.
Once he saw the item's true form, an abnormal smile appeared on Taichu's face.
"A Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Red Embroidered Ball. Could it be that I really have to take Nuwa as my disciple?"
A sharp gleam flashed through Taichu's eyes. He immediately made up his mind and quietly put away the Red Embroidered Ball.
Then Taichu raised his head and looked into the Void, the corners of his lips curling upward as his eyes narrowed slightly.
He extended his right hand and beckoned at the Void.
"Little brother, you're here. Your big brother was just about to look for you. Looks like we really are of one mind!"
Apparently unaccustomed to Taichu's enthusiasm, the Power of Heavenly Dao within the Void around Zhou Mountain froze for an instant.
Only then did it send Taichu a message.
After reading it, Taichu frowned slightly.
"Oh, little brother, you sensed traces of a different aura appearing between heaven and earth? It seems someone has already made a move against the Primordial Wilderness. I just don't know whether it was those fellows in Chaos, or..."
As Taichu spoke, a sharp glint flashed through his eyes. He looked straight toward the Eastern Lands, his gaze falling upon Jade Capital Mountain in the Void beside Kunlun.
He merely glanced at Old Daoist Hongjun, who was immersed in comprehending the Dao, before quickly withdrawing his gaze.
It had better have nothing to do with that fellow. Otherwise...
Then Taichu received another message from Heavenly Dao.
"Oh, you have your eye on the Core of the Jade Plate of Creation in his hands? That thing came from Father God's shattered Jade Plate of Creation. Do you know how he obtained it?"
As though recalling something, Taichu suddenly asked Heavenly Dao Brother.
"Oh, right. Do you know that fellow's Background? Earthworm? Do you think I need you to tell me that? With my level of cultivation, could he hide even that from me?"
"What I want to know is whether he is an Innate Divine Being born and raised in the Primordial Wilderness, or the reincarnation of a Chaos Demon God!"
Upon hearing Taichu's question, Heavenly Dao in the Void immediately fluctuated, and Taichu sensed the confusion it conveyed.
Taichu's brows furrowed, and the crease between them deepened.
"You don't know either?"
"Oh, I see. You had not yet been conceived into existence back then, and Great Dao Grandfather was managing things, so you had no way of knowing."
After understanding this, Taichu could not help feeling that the matter was rather troublesome.
Great Dao is Impartial. He did not concern himself with unnecessary matters. Whether it was an anomaly or some other factor, all existed within Great Dao, and he fully tolerated their existence.
Such matters could not be asked of Great Dao.
Because in his view, they were entirely normal—the natural principle by which all things operated.
This was also why Taichu had gained Great Dao's acknowledgment in the first place. So long as one did not provoke Great Dao, He truly did not care.
"Then this is troublesome."
Taichu could only suppress the matter for now and see whether he could obtain an answer later.
He then spoke with his little brother about the abnormality in heaven and earth that He had detected.
"The Primordial Starry Sky? That place is closest to Chaos, so it truly is the place most likely to have problems."
"Right, I wonder whether the Primordial Star Gods of old truly all perished?"
Hearing of the Primordial Starry Sky again, Taichu could not help forming a few guesses.
However, Taichu recalled that during the Fierce Beast Tribulation, a group of Innate Divine Beings had been born in the Primordial Starry Sky. They were the Primordial World's earliest Star Gods and bore the responsibility of organizing the Primordial Starry Sky and governing the Zhou Heavenly Stars.
They were also the beings closest to Star Origin.
As someone who possessed nearly half the authority of the Primordial Wilderness, Taichu naturally knew of the Innate Star Gods' existence.
They were unlike the Zhou Tian Star Gods of later legends, who were formed from compatible members of the Demon Race after the Demon Court emerged.
Taichu even suspected that Tai Bai Jin Xing of later times, the legitimate eldest son of the Zhou Dynasty who had been granted the title Zi Wei Great Emperor by humans, might have been the reincarnation of an Innate Star God.
Otherwise, how could a prince of a Human Race dynasty bear the status of Zi Wei Great Emperor?
In the Primordial Wilderness, Fortune and status were the most peculiar things. It was not enough for someone to simply push you into a position!
Your status had to match.
Upon hearing Taichu's question, the Power of Heavenly Dao in the Void began to circulate, vast and obscure.
It seemed even more majestic than Taichu, a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Not long afterward, the Power of Heavenly Dao emerged, and Taichu directly received some information.
"Oh, some Primordial Star Gods really still exist? Then they can be put to use. Even if they are on the verge of collapse, I cultivate the Creation Great Dao. When it comes to reconstructing Original Source, no one is better than me!"
As Taichu's words fell, Divine Thunder faintly appeared in the Void, seemingly intending to make Taichu abandon the matter.
Taichu raised a brow at the sight, then spoke casually, with a hint of reprimand in his tone.
"Little brother, you really don't know how to adapt. Just like that Core of the Jade Plate of Creation—since it is useful to you, just take it!"
"Karma? Let him come find me if he dares. Enough, don't be so overly cautious. When the opportunity arises, your big brother will take it for you!"
Taichu suddenly remembered what he had wanted to ask his little brother.
He immediately spoke.
"By the way, little brother, as the Primordial Heavenly Dao, do you have something like a Heavenly Dao Grand Trend?"
This matter concerned many of Taichu's future plans, so he had no choice but to treat it seriously.
Although his identity was special—he was Pangu's biological son, and in principle stood on equal footing with Heavenly Dao—Pangu had even personally granted him the authority to instruct and manage the other party.
Still, if they could get along peacefully and communicate properly, Taichu had no need to force the issue and turn easy mode into hell mode.
Yet upon hearing Taichu's words, Taichu suddenly noticed that the Power of Heavenly Dao had instantly frozen.
It was as though it had lagged for a moment. In an instant, Taichu understood the seriousness of the matter.
As he listened, he also understood the situation, and his heart trembled with fear. Although he was ostensibly the elder brother, Taichu's strength had yet to recover.
If he did not use the authority in his hands, he could not compare with the current Heavenly Dao. Even a newly born Heavenly Dao was a Half-step Hunyuan Taiji Daluo Golden Immortal.
That had already entered an entirely different realm.
Not to mention that the current Heavenly Dao was already at the level of a Hunyuan Taiji Daluo Golden Immortal.
However, Taichu also understood that although Heavenly Dao held a status equal to Hunyuan Taiji, He could not act like a normal living being.
Taichu also understood that perhaps the original legends of the Primordial Wilderness had never been about Heavenly Dao having selfish motives. Heavenly Dao was Dao, so how could Dao possess selfishness?
The selfish one was merely the guide!
"Alright, little brother, I understand now. Return to the Heavenly Dao Origin Space."
Then Taichu reminded Him again.
"Also, the Heavenly Dao Space is of utmost importance. You must reinforce it with multiple layers of stability, just in case!"
Hearing Taichu's words, Heavenly Dao immediately conveyed a displeased aura, mixed with a touch of haughty pride.
"Your big brother knows you have transformed now, but you were still born too late, so you must remain on guard. Besides, there are still so many beings in Chaos eyeing the Primordial Wilderness covetously. You agree with that, don't you?"
Only after hearing Taichu put it that way did Heavenly Dao reluctantly agree, sending a message that He would return to the Heavenly Dao Space and strengthen its defenses several times over.
Watching the Power of Heavenly Dao completely dissipate, Taichu's eyes were filled with gravity.
"To think that someone has already begun meddling with the Primordial Heavenly Dao by some unknown means... Whoever is behind this is truly something. They had better not let me find them, or else..."
