"I choose option three."
Fuxi said excitedly.
[Ding, the system has confirmed. Distributing option reward.]
When the system prompt sounded, the reward for option three was gradually granted to Fuxi.
First was Pangu's Essence Blood, which directly appeared within Fuxi's heart.
Fuxi looked inward and discovered that although this drop of Pangu's Essence Blood was tiny, it radiated an extremely dense baleful aura and contained a vast amount of vital energy and blood.
Most amazingly, this drop of Pangu's Essence Blood was rhythmically contracting and expanding, emitting fluctuations and Dao essence.
Although Fuxi had not yet begun refining Pangu's Essence Blood, his body was already breathing in the same rhythm as that drop. The vital energy and blood leaking from it directly made Fuxi feel that his physical body was brimming with strength.
Once Fuxi focused on refining it, this drop of Pangu's Essence Blood would merge into Fuxi's origin, strengthening his body and physique at the very level of life itself.
After Fuxi experienced the wonder and power of this drop of Pangu's Essence Blood, he suddenly discovered that far beyond the Honghuang Continent, over the boundless East Sea, three places were calling to him.
Fuxi naturally understood that those three places should be the Three Immortal Islands of the East Sea.
The summons from the Three Immortal Islands of the East Sea was extremely powerful. Fuxi believed that if he carefully followed this call and ventured out to sea, he would certainly find traces of the Three Immortal Islands of the East Sea.
However, Fuxi still needed to guard the newly matured Chaos Gourd Vine. Naturally, he had no time to search for the Three Immortal Island, so he could only temporarily ignore the summons.
Aside from the call from the Three Immortal Islands of the East Sea, memories of a Divine Ability had also appeared within Fuxi's soul.
The name of this Divine Ability was the Heavenly Emperor Fist.
To Fuxi's surprise, he had thought that he would need to learn the Heavenly Emperor Fist from the beginning before he could use it. Yet the system seemed to have directly imparted it to him through enlightenment.
This meant that Fuxi had already mastered the Heavenly Emperor Fist.
As long as he used it often, he would be able to wield the Heavenly Emperor Fist with great proficiency.
This was naturally a good thing for Fuxi.
When those Grand Unity Golden Immortals came to this valley to fight over the Opportunity, he could also test the power of the Heavenly Emperor Fist.
At present, the entire Honghuang world should have sensed the maturation of the Chaos Gourd Vine. Sooner or later, they would come here to fight over the Opportunity.
While those Grand Unity Golden Immortals were still on their way and there was some time left, Fuxi decided to refine that drop of Pangu's Essence Blood first.
Once he refined Pangu's Essence Blood and his physical body grew stronger, he would have greater confidence in guarding the Chaos Gourd Vine against those Grand Unity Golden Immortals seeking to fight over the Opportunity.
Thus, Fuxi sat cross-legged beneath the Gourd Vine and forcefully slapped his chest.
The Pangu's Essence Blood floating near Fuxi's heart was pushed by that force and merged into his heart.
"Thump! Thump!"
Fuxi felt his heart begin to pound uncontrollably. The blood of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal throughout his body became scorching hot, surging through his veins.
Fuxi's entire body swelled with blood and vitality, and bluish-purple flames actually began to emerge from him.
Those bluish-purple flames gradually grew more vigorous, enveloping Fuxi's entire body and beginning to temper his physical form.
The Primordial Chaos Battle of Gods and Demons
Fuxi had thought that the process of Pangu's Essence Blood strengthening his physical body would be brief and swift, but he never expected this drop of Pangu's Essence Blood to treat his body like a treasure and begin refining and forging it.
Not only did this process look exceedingly strange, it also came with excruciating pain.
Logically speaking, as a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, Fuxi could easily endure ordinary pain. Yet the pain from being strengthened by Pangu's Essence Blood was truly difficult to bear.
As Fuxi's physical body was strengthened, he groaned twice in pain.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
Nuwa, who was meditating beside Fuxi, heard his muffled groans and asked worriedly.
Though Fuxi frowned in pain, he still said calmly, "Nothing. I'm just tempering my body. Hiss!"
Although Nuwa was worried for her brother's safety, she knew he was not someone who would do something foolish, so she felt relieved.
However, Fuxi was currently strengthening his body, while the Chaos Gourd Vine was still releasing divine radiance Beyond the Heavens to announce its birth. She had to come out of seclusion and stand guard for her brother.
Thus, Nuwa rose to her feet and began maintaining the many formations within the valley, doing her best to weaken the divine radiance emitted by the Chaos Gourd Vine.
Unfortunately, the Chaos Gourd Vine was one of the Ten Innate Spiritual Roots. No formation could block the divine radiance it released, and that radiance gradually drew the attention of Honghuang's living beings.
Fuxi was now wholly receiving the strengthening of Pangu's Essence Blood. His flesh and blood began to grow tough, reaching a degree of toughness that ordinary Grand Unity Golden Immortals could only envy.
His vital energy and blood became as vigorous as fire, his life origin became more powerful, and his very life was advancing toward a stronger level.
"Does this count as evolution?"
Feeling the various changes in his physical body, Fuxi grew excited. The sound of his heartbeat became like thunder.
When the bluish-purple flames on Fuxi's body began to die out, the strengthening process gradually neared its end, and golden light began to shine from his skin.
Fuxi had thought that Pangu's Essence Blood had finished strengthening him, but at that moment, he suddenly felt dizzy.
When the dizziness passed, the Chaos Gourd Vine was no longer before Fuxi. Instead, he saw a scene that left him utterly shocked.
This scene took place in the chaos before heaven and earth were opened. A giant stood within it.
The giant held a massive axe, while countless Chaos Gods and Demons stood around him.
Every one of those Chaos Gods and Demons looked fierce and terrifying, possessing boundless might. Fuxi could not see through the strength of a single one.
Moreover, these Chaos Gods and Demons had gathered together, surrounding the axe-wielding giant before charging at him.
Yet in the face of so many Chaos Gods and Demons, the giant showed no fear. Roaring in fury, he swung his enormous axe and fought against more than three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons.
Fuxi was stunned by the sight of the battle.
Though the giant did not use any Dao techniques, he merely swung his great axe against the spells, Divine Abilities, and various weapons of the surrounding Chaos Gods and Demons. He blocked all their methods and even slew quite a few weaker Chaos Gods and Demons.
One force broke ten thousand techniques!
Even though Fuxi had never seen this scene before, he still guessed the giant's identity.
This giant was Pangu, the great god who opened heaven and earth in Honghuang!
Fuxi guessed that because he had absorbed the essence of Pangu's Essence Blood, strengthened his physical body, and had his soul influenced by the essence blood, he was able to witness this epic battle before the creation of heaven and earth.
The sight of Pangu battling three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons made Fuxi's blood boil. Moreover, the various moves and methods Pangu used in battle greatly expanded Fuxi's understanding of combat.
For Fuxi, watching Pangu's battle against the Chaos Gods and Demons was also a tremendous fortune, perhaps not inferior to the fortune of strengthening his physical body.
Originally, Fuxi had thought that a single drop of Pangu's Essence Blood was somewhat too little. Now, he only felt that every reward given by the system was immensely worthwhile.
Watching Pangu swing his great axe, Fuxi even wanted to find someone and engage in a battle of physical bodies.
While Fuxi was still immersed in the scene of Pangu battling gods and demons, most of the Grand Unity Golden Immortals in Honghuang sensed the divine radiance illuminating heaven and earth from Buzhou Mountain.
Among them, the ones who sensed it most strongly were naturally those who had obtained the opportunity of the Gourd Vine in Honghuang's mythological history.
At Wanshou Mountain Five Villages Temple.
Hong Yun had been tasting the flavor of the Ginseng Fruit with Zhenyuanzi when he suddenly felt his heart stir and his mind grow restless.
Seeing that something was wrong with Hong Yun, Zhenyuanzi asked, "Brother Hong Yun, what happened?"
Hong Yun raised his head, looked toward the distant horizon, and said, "I sensed it. There is an Opportunity belonging to me within Buzhou Mountain."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing that Hong Yun had an Opportunity at Buzhou Mountain, Zhenyuanzi immediately rose to his feet and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let us go to Buzhou Mountain together and seek your Opportunity, fellow Daoist."
Hong Yun nodded and immediately transformed into two streams of immortal light with Zhenyuanzi, flying toward Buzhou Mountain.
Meanwhile, within Kunlun Mountain.
The Three Pure Ones, who had just broken through to the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, were consolidating their cultivation as they waited for Hongjun's second lecture several hundred years later.
Suddenly, all three raised their heads.
"You felt it too?"
Taishang Laojun said in surprise.
Sect Master Tongtian replied, "Mm. That Opportunity is still within Buzhou Mountain. This time, it seems to have truly emerged."
"There is no time to lose. Let us go seize the Opportunity together!"
Yuanshi Tianzun rose to his feet impatiently.
"Good. The divine radiance this time is so dazzling that we will definitely be able to find where that Opportunity is. This time, we certainly will not return empty-handed."
Sect Master Tongtian said confidently.
At present, all three of them had reached the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm. With the Three Pure Ones joining forces, no one in the entire Honghuang could stand against them.
The Three Pure Ones were determined to seize this Opportunity!
At the same time, two cries suddenly rang out from the Sun Star.
From within that boundless fireball flew two Golden Crows, each stretching ten thousand li in length.
"Father, bring me back a treasure this time!"
A young boy shouted at Di Jun from a great hall within the Sun Star.
Di Jun replied, "Don't worry. There must be a great Opportunity and great treasure within Buzhou Mountain this time. Once I seize the treasure, I'll bring it back and give it to you."
After saying that, Di Jun and the Eastern Emperor flapped their wings and flew toward Buzhou Mountain.
Although the Sun Star was extremely far from Buzhou Mountain, Di Jun and the Eastern Emperor were both confident in their chances of seizing the Opportunity, because the Golden Crow clan also possessed an extremely swift Dao technique.
Hong Yun and Zhenyuanzi rode the clear wind into the region of Buzhou Mountain.
Buzhou Mountain was immensely majestic. It had more than ten thousand peaks and stretched for countless millions of li.
Even with their powerful cultivation as Grand Unity Golden Immortals, they would need to spend some effort searching for the Opportunity amid the vast Buzhou Mountain.
Fortunately, the divine radiance was still shining toward the sky, providing them with guidance in their search for the Opportunity.
However, just as the two rushed toward the place where the divine radiance shone, they suddenly discovered tremors from battle coming from a mountain ahead.
When they went forward to look, they found that Gong Gong and Zhu Rong, the two ancestral shamans, were engaged in a great battle.
