No armor was impervious to flattery. With Pangu Father God as such a thick thigh to cling to, life could not be any sweeter.
Was it not just praising Pangu Father God a few times? Taiqing had plenty of energy to heap on the praise.
After paying his respects to the Pangu Marrow, Taiqing finally approached the first piece of Pangu Marrow.
Pangu Marrow possessed endless wondrous uses: rebuilding one's foundation, condensing the Pangu True Body, breaking bloodline limitations, and countless more.
"With this Father God Marrow, we Sanqing can also cultivate the Pangu Father God True Body.
The Twelve Ancestral Witch brothers and sisters can likewise break their limitations and possess Primordial Spirits.
When fifteen Pangu True Bodies emerge, who in the Primordial Wilderness could stand against us?
With the Dutian God-Demon Great Formation, we can summon the Pangu Father God True Body.
Even Old Thief Hongjun after integrating with the Dao would likely have to keep his distance."
Taiqing immediately sat cross-legged and began refining the Pangu Marrow.
"It is truly too massive. If I refine it completely, who knows what level my physical body will reach."
A single piece of Pangu Marrow was equivalent to a Lesser Thousand World.
To completely absorb and refine it, with Taiqing's current cultivation, he did not know how many Eons it would take.
Taiqing could only absorb a portion for now, strengthen his physical body, and condense the Pangu True Body first.
As for the rest, he would save it to refine slowly in the future.
Within the Innate Great Formation, Taiqing steadily refined the Pangu Marrow.
Outside the formation, Old Ancestor Wuxing, who had been lying in wait all this time, was becoming anxious.
"Why has that ant not come out yet? Could he have left through some other exit?"
Having waited outside the formation for nearly an Eon, Old Ancestor Wuxing had still not seen Taiqing emerge.
He was growing somewhat anxious.
For nearly an Eon, Old Ancestor Wuxing's cultivation atop Buzhou Mountain had progressed slowly.
Affected by Pangu's Pressure, neither his comprehension of Laws nor his accumulation of magic power had gone as smoothly as he wished.
With his cultivation stagnating, how could Old Ancestor Wuxing not be anxious?
If he kept waiting here, Yang Mei might attain the Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm before him.
"Forget it. Since that ant can draw forth the Will of Pangu, he must have its protection.
Trying to capture him in the Primordial Wilderness will be extraordinarily difficult, let alone here on Buzhou Mountain, transformed from Pangu Spine.
Poor Daoist shall leave first. Cultivation is what matters most.
As for the secrets that ant knows, once I attain the Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, I can naturally uncover them with ease."
With a cold snort, Old Ancestor Wuxing transformed into a streak of light, left his temporary Daoist Arena, and headed toward his own Five Elements Daoist Arena.
Rather than wasting time on Buzhou Mountain, it was better to return to his Daoist Arena, cultivate in peace, and attain the Dao sooner.
In the end, the Primordial Wilderness still respected strength above all else.
Ever since its manifestation that time, the Will of Pangu had made no further move. There was no need for Old Ancestor Wuxing to dwell on the matter.
Within the Innate Great Formation, the moment Old Ancestor Wuxing left, Taiqing's tightly shut eyes abruptly opened.
Boom!
An immensely powerful and terrifying force of the physical body erupted from Taiqing.
Even the surrounding void twisted beneath that physical force.
"I did not expect that refining just a tiny bit of marrow would bring my physical body to the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.
This marrow is simply far too powerful.
Even my foundation has been strengthened somewhat.
Most importantly, the Origin I absorbed from my second and third brothers has actually fused completely.
Even the suppressive force of the Heavenly Dao has weakened somewhat.
As long as I find a place that can evade the Heavenly Dao's suppression, I can smoothly advance to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm."
Taiqing inspected himself in delight. After coming into existence, his physical body had only been at the peak Golden Immortal level.
Even after arduously cultivating his physical body, by the time he reached Buzhou Mountain, it had only reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level.
As one transformed from Pangu's Primordial Spirit, he seemed naturally unsuited to physical strength.
Yet now, after absorbing the Pangu Marrow, this weakness had been completely remedied.
His physical body and Primordial Spirit had reached the same realm, both advancing to the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.
Taiqing had originally intended to walk the path of cultivating the Primordial Spirit, physical body, Laws, and magic power together.
Within the Primordial Wilderness, magic power was the easiest to accumulate, so most cultivators followed the Magic Power Path.
Yet cultivators who followed only the Magic Power Path were the weakest.
Next came the Primordial Spirit Path. Most cultivators followed the Magic Power and Primordial Spirit Path.
Only then came the Physical Body Path.
The most difficult was the Law Path.
Because once cultivated to the depths, the Law Path could rival the Chaos Demon Gods of old, or even surpass them.
To prevent uncontrollable cultivators of the Law Path from appearing in the Primordial Wilderness, the Heavenly Dao naturally suppressed the Law Path.
Thus, the Law Path was the hardest to cultivate, but also the most powerful.
The Twelve Ancestral Witches were born with control over Laws and also followed the Physical Body Path.
Furthermore, they were Pangu's descendants, so the Heavenly Dao naturally sought to destroy the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
That was the true reason behind the evolution of the Witch-Demon Calamity.
Now, Taiqing had embarked upon the path of cultivating Laws, Primordial Spirit, physical body, and magic power together.
The Heavenly Dao would certainly plot against him.
However, even if Taiqing did not cultivate the Law Path, the Heavenly Dao would still plot against him.
Since that was the case, he might as well rebel against the Heavenly Dao and make himself the strongest and unmatched among those of the same realm.
"This Primordial Wilderness was created by Pangu Father God. We Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches ought to inherit the family estate.
You, Heavenly Dao, are merely a steward.
For daring to scheme against the estate of us Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches, your crime is unforgivable.
Once we Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches attain the Dao, we will settle accounts with you, Heavenly Dao, sooner or later."
The Heavenly Dao was too powerful, and it was in cahoots with Dao-Integrator Hongjun.
Taiqing would not engage in any foolish lone-wolf tactics.
He would unite every force that could be united.
The most reliable ones had to be his own brothers and sisters first: the Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
As Pangu's descendants, they should have stood united to protect the Primordial Wilderness and inherit this vast family estate.
Who would have thought that the Sanqing and Twelve Ancestral Witches of old would turn against one another and become mortal enemies?
In the end, the Three Pure Ones were forced to swallow the Saint-Slaying Pill and imprisoned within the Purple Cloud Palace.
The Twelve Ancestral Witches also suffered devastating casualties, leaving only Xuanming Ancestral Witch to retreat and defend the Northern Continent.
Buzhou Mountain was also broken by Gonggong, while the Sanqing shattered the Primordial Wilderness during the Investiture of the Gods Calamity.
This allowed Heavenly Dao and Hongjun to completely seize control of the Primordial Wilderness and take the estate of the Sanqing and Twelve Ancestral Witches.
"The estate of us Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches cannot be taken by anyone!
Even the Heavenly Dao should not dream of touching a single fraction of our estate.
It is also time to head to the Eastern Sea in search of the Three Immortal Islands. Advancing to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm sooner will provide another measure of security."
After putting away the fifteen pieces of Pangu Marrow, Taiqing immediately felt weighed down.
Fifteen pieces of Pangu Marrow the size of Lesser Thousand Worlds were naturally heavy.
"I wonder whether Old Ancestor Wuxing is still waiting outside. I should check first."
This Innate Great Formation had originally been prepared by Pangu for Pangu's descendants.
As Pangu's descendant, after refining a tiny portion of Pangu Marrow, Taiqing gained control over this Innate Great Formation.
He controlled the core of the Innate Great Formation and examined the surroundings.
"It seems Old Ancestor Wuxing and Old Thief Hongjun have already left. I must leave quickly as well.
Otherwise, if Old Ancestor Wuxing or Old Thief Hongjun returns, it will become difficult to escape."
After making several rounds of inspection, he saw no sign of Old Ancestor Wuxing within the temporary Daoist Arena he had erected.
Nor did he sense the presence of Old Thief Hongjun around the formation.
Taiqing left the Innate Great Formation, activated the World-Opening Supreme Treasure, the Taiji Diagram, concealed his aura, and sped toward the foot of Buzhou Mountain.
