Yang Mei felt somewhat disinterested.

Just as Yang Mei turned to leave, he suddenly thought of something and halted.

He took out an item and tossed it to Di Jun.

"This belongs to your master. It should be returned to its rightful owner."

With that, Yang Mei rode away on an evasion light.

In the blink of an eye, Yang Mei had traveled far beyond the horizon.

Di Jun carefully examined the item Yang Mei had given him. It was an irregular piece of metal, with Chaos Divine Script flowing across it. It appeared to be a fragment of some treasure.

It should be a fragment of some Innate Supreme Treasure from the Primordial Chaos Era, Di Jun thought.

During the Primordial Chaos Era, there had been quite a few Innate Supreme Treasures, along with Chaos Supreme Treasures.

Chaos Supreme Treasures contained fifty Innate restrictions.

The Pangu Axe, for example, had been a Chaos Supreme Treasure.

During Pangu's Creation, not only had many Chaos Demon Gods been slain, but many supreme treasures had also been destroyed.

In the end, even the Pangu Axe could not withstand it and split into three.

The Pangu Axe became three Innate Supreme Treasures. Yet even if the Three Creation Treasures were gathered, they could no longer be fused into a Chaos Supreme Treasure.

When a Chaos Supreme Treasure divided into three Innate Supreme Treasures, more than half of its origin was lost.

The same applied when an Innate Supreme Treasure split into several Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures, or when a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure split into several High-grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures.

This fragment must have come from the Innate Supreme Treasure of the Time Demon God.

Yet even if all the fragments were gathered, the restored treasure would at most be a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure. Restoring it to an Innate Supreme Treasure would be extraordinarily difficult.

It was merely a fragment, barely qualifying as a Low-grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure.

Although it contained the power of time, it held no Law of Time.

Still, it could aid in comprehending the Law of Time.

After studying it for a moment, Di Jun released his divine sense.

As his divine sense entered the fragment, he immediately received some scattered information.

After sorting through the fragmented information and carefully analyzing it, he gained some understanding.

The four directions above and below were called space. Though space had substance, no fixed location could be found. From ancient times to the present was called time. Though time increased, none knew where its beginning lay.

During the Primordial Chaos Era, the Space Demon God Yang Mei possessed the Innate Supreme Treasure Universe Light Wheel, while the Time Demon God Shi Chen possessed the Innate Supreme Treasure Cosmic Light Wheel. When the two supreme treasures were combined, the power of space-time surged forth, unmatched in might.

Pangu's cultivation had simply surpassed Yang Mei and Shi Chen by far. Otherwise, the two working together might not have been unable to contend with Pangu.

When Pangu created the world, Yang Mei and Shi Chen had joined forces. Yet their all-out power of space-time had only managed to block one strike of Pangu's axe. When Pangu swung his great axe again, Yang Mei perished. Another axe strike slew Shi Chen.

The Cosmic Light Wheel was shattered into countless pieces. Some fragments scattered across the Primordial World, while others drifted into the chaos.

After so many Cosmic Epochs, the Cosmic Light Wheel Fragments that had fallen into the chaos had likely all been ground away.

The Space Demon God reincarnated, but unfortunately, the Time Demon God lacked such fortune, Di Jun thought.

He had impersonated Shi Chen and deceived Yang Mei. If Shi Chen were alive, that would have formed karma between them.

But Lu Yang had not formed karma with Shi Chen.

This showed that Shi Chen had failed to reincarnate in the Primordial World.

Surely Shi Chen had not cultivated back into a Chaos Demon God and left the Primordial World before Lu Yang transmigrated here!

As for Yang Mei discovering the deception in the future, Lu Yang was not worried.

Once Yang Mei became a Chaos Demon God, he would have no choice but to leave the Primordial World.

No matter how great the karma formed with a Chaos Demon God, it would not be "acknowledged" by the Heavenly Dao.

As for gathering every Cosmic Light Wheel Fragment, Lu Yang had no such intention.

As long as even one fragment had been erased by chaos, they could never all be found.

Besides, even after expending tremendous effort to gather them all, he would only restore a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Not worth it!

"If I comprehend the Law of Time, Yang Mei will deserve some credit as well." Lu Yang smiled.

In truth, the Sun Star itself possessed quite a few laws.

The circulation of the sun and moon represented the changes of time in the Primordial World.

Thus, the laws possessed by the Sun Star naturally included the Law of Time.

However, although the Sun Star was Lu Yang's body, he had yet to gain complete control over it.

This was because his Body Cultivation far surpassed his Primordial Spirit Cultivation.

Another reason was that his comprehension of the Dao was too low.

Unless Lu Yang followed the example of the Ancestral Witches and completely merged his soul into his body, he could easily control the laws his body possessed. But then he would be unable to cultivate his Primordial Spirit or comprehend the Great Dao.

The "Dao" was the foundation, while "laws" and "arts" were merely applications.

Without being able to comprehend the Great Dao, one could only muddle about with "laws" and "arts."

Of course, that did not mean there was no path forward.

He could accumulate the mana of an Immeasurable Calamity and prove the Dao by force. If he succeeded, he would become a Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Since Lu Yang cultivated his Primordial Spirit, and his Primordial Spirit Cultivation was far inferior to his Body Cultivation, naturally it was difficult for him to completely control his body.

But the laws possessed by the Sun Star would certainly be easier for Lu Yang to comprehend.

A flash of fire appeared. Using fire escape, he sent the fragment in his hand into the Sun Core Space, and Di Jun returned to the Primordial Great Earth.

When he had previously discovered Yang Mei arriving at the Sun Star, Di Jun had directly teleported from the Primordial Great Earth to the Sun Star by using sunlight.

The moment Yang Mei addressed him as Fellow Daoist Shi Chen, Di Jun had played along.

However, Di Jun had never said that he was Shi Chen's disciple. Yang Mei had merely regarded him as Shi Chen's disciple, and he had not denied it.

Setting the facts aside, it was mainly Yang Mei's "mistake."

Directly teleporting from the Primordial Great Earth to the Sun Star consumed a considerable amount of mana.

Now that Di Jun was returning to the Primordial Great Earth, he did not teleport directly. Instead, he used Golden Crow Transformation into Rainbow and short-range teleportation.

Inside the Sun Star.

Within the Core Space was a golden sea of fire, the Great Sun Golden Flame. There was also a massive cluster of black flames, the World-Ending Blaze.

A golden light sphere with a diameter of billions upon billions of miles appeared. This was Lu Yang's Primordial Spirit.

Lu Yang's Primordial Spirit could be large or small.

When large, it surpassed Mount Sumeru. When small, it was subtler than a mustard seed.

The fragment containing the power of time was wrapped by Lu Yang's Primordial Spirit.

The fragment was only palm-sized.

Next, time within this space began to fall into disorder.

Rahu hid in the void, looking coldly down at Ancestor Dragon on the ground.

Ancestor Dragon was currently in human form, with a pair of chi-length wooden horns on his forehead.

The Primordial World was vast, and there were countless creatures with scales and horns, but only Dragon Horns were called chi-length wood.

Without chi-length wood, a Dragon could not ascend to heaven.

At this moment, Ancestor Dragon stood upon the ground. Beneath his feet lay a winding earth vein stretching several million miles.

Dragon Qi continuously seeped from Ancestor Dragon into the earth vein.

At present, some dragon veins had already appeared throughout the Primordial Era.

If Ancestor Dragon continued, the number of dragon veins would only keep increasing.

Once all earth veins became dragon veins, it would be impossible for the Dragon Clan not to flourish.

Even if no great powers had noticed at first, by now there were few great powers in the Primordial World who did not know.

Ancestor Dragon's actions had already touched the bottom line of many great powers.

"Courting death." Rahu narrowed his eyes and sneered inwardly.

Rahu was not the only one who had begun making plans.

There were surely many other great powers plotting as well.

As for directly attacking Ancestor Dragon, Rahu believed the timing had not yet come.

If he acted now, it was not as though Rahu lacked confidence in defeating Ancestor Dragon, but the losses would outweigh the gains.

One who did not plan for ten thousand generations was not fit to plan for a single moment.

The Dragon Clan's Fortune was at its peak, and Ancestor Dragon was no weakling. Rahu could only avoid his edge for now.

Beneath Buzhou Mountain, First Kirin remained in seclusion.

Far away at Immortal Volcano, Yuan Feng was also busy cultivating.

In terms of mana, both First Kirin and Yuan Feng were close to one Calamity.

But being close to it and reaching it were entirely different matters.

A tiny difference often led to a vast disparity.

One Calamity's worth of mana made one a Quasi-Saint. Being close to one Calamity's worth of mana only made one a Da Luo.

It was precisely because neither First Kirin nor Yuan Feng had broken through to the Quasi-Saint realm that Ancestor Dragon had been allowed to act so arrogantly.

Although Quasi-Saints supported the Kirin Clan and Phoenix Clan, they were unwilling to engage Ancestor Dragon in an all-out battle.

For instance, the Quasi-Saint aiding the Kirin Clan cultivated using the Kirin Clan's Fortune on one hand, while on the other, he served to make the Dragon Clan wary.

Without such deterrence, the Dragon Clan would likely have started a war long ago.

And within the Four Seas, fewer and fewer living beings were resisting the Dragon Clan.

Now, the Dragon Clan's Fortune far surpassed that of the Phoenix Clan and Kirin Clan.

At this rate, in at most several dozen Cosmic Epochs, the combined Fortune of the Phoenix Clan and Kirin Clan would no longer compare to that of the Dragon Clan.

Thus, both First Kirin and Yuan Feng felt a sense of urgency.

As for submitting beneath the Dragon Clan, it was not within the considerations of either First Kirin or Yuan Feng.

Suddenly, every Da Luo and Quasi-Saint in the Primordial World sensed that time seemed to have changed slightly.

Somewhere, Yang Mei looked toward the Sun Star.

Yang Mei had many considerations as well. He needed to obtain the Hunyuan Dao Fruit as quickly as possible, so that he could help his old friend.
