In the original grand course of the Primordial Wilderness.
The Hongmeng Measuring Ruler had hardly ever appeared. It had remained hidden within the Witch Clan's Pangu Hall, never revealing itself...
Few in the world knew much about it.
Yet one treasure was closely connected to the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler and well known throughout the Primordial Wilderness: the Exquisite Pagoda of Heaven and Earth!
Both were Innate Merit Supreme Treasures.
The Exquisite Pagoda of Heaven and Earth specialized in defense. It was the foremost Innate Merit defensive treasure and had fallen into Taiqing's hands; the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, meanwhile, specialized in offense, the foremost Innate Merit offensive treasure!
One for attack, one for defense.
Each had its own strength!
Both possessed the trait of killing without staining themselves with karma...
As the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler descended and entered Wu Tian's body through his spiritual platform, incomparably resplendent golden merit light immediately burst forth, instantly illuminating Wu Tian's newly born Primordial Spirit.
Wu Tian was immensely astonished as well!
He had never expected such a treasure to be within Pangu Hall, much less that it would fly out after being drawn by his aura...
But he had no time to dwell on it.
Just now, the Ancestral Witches had passed the Twelve Divine Heavens Great Sorcery Formation on to him. Following the formation, Wu Tian used the twelve laws as the Twelve Ancestral Witches, operating the great formation within his body to temporarily erase the conflicts between the laws.
Yet it still lacked a core.
A core capable of suppressing the great formation!
When the Ancestral Witches set up the Twelve Divine Heavens Great Sorcery Formation, they used Pangu Hall to suppress it. Pangu Hall had been transformed from Great God Pangu's heart, so it was naturally up to the task.
But Pangu Hall belonged to all the Ancestral Witches.
Wu Tian had no way to refine it into his own body...
At this moment.
As the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler descended.
Its might bloomed within his Primordial Spirit, directly taking the place Pangu Hall had originally occupied in the Twelve Divine Heavens Great Sorcery Formation and instantly suppressing the formation!
The next moment.
The Power of the twelve laws was activated!
The Twelve Divine Heavens Great Sorcery Formation, which had nearly come to a halt, began rumbling into motion once more. With the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler as its core, it revolved without end.
Carrying Wu Tian's power, the Twelve Divine Heavens Great Sorcery Formation continuously surged forth, washing toward the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler...
Its Innate Forbidden Restrictions were refined one after another!
The more they were refined... the denser the golden merit light radiating from the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler became, the greater the might it revealed, and the stronger its suppressive force over the formation grew.
And under the stimulation of this power.
The formation revolved ever faster!
Between the two, a delicate balance unexpectedly formed...
Continuously transforming toward the utmost limit.
At the same time.
Outside Wu Tian's body, as the formation revolved without cease and the Power of Laws cycled, his aura changed as well...
Perhaps because the Power of Laws contained within a single drop of Ancestral Witch Essence Blood was insufficient, Wu Tian did not reveal a True Form of the Ancestral Witch through these laws.
But behind him, hazy phenomena emerged!
Within the first phenomenon was a creature with six legs and four wings, chaotic and faceless. It resembled a great yellow sack, yet was crimson like cinnabar fire.
This was Dijiang's True Form of the Ancestral Witch.
Within the second phenomenon was a human head atop a dragon's body, crimson all over, with two eyes flickering with the aura of the Law of Time.
This was Zhu Jiuyin's True Form of the Ancestral Witch!
The third phenomenon, the fourth phenomenon...
As the formation revolved, one phenomenon after another emerged, circling Wu Tian's body like a murky gray rainbow thick with Killing Intent.
Once all the True Forms of the Ancestral Witches had appeared.
The gray light suddenly flashed!
"Boom!"
The incomparably massive Pangu Hall trembled.
Though it was called a "hall," it contained a world within, vast beyond measure, suffused with boundless blood-tinged Killing Intent...
With this tremor.
An immense quantity of blood-tinged Killing Intent swept forth!
Above Wu Tian's head, it formed a tangible, enormous funnel, continuously pouring this blood-tinged Killing Intent into him.
In the boundless Blood Pool beside them, this upheaval set off towering waves...
Countless streams of blood spread like ribbons, winding toward Wu Tian's body!
The Ancestral Witches stared unblinkingly at the scene before them. Even Zhurong, usually the noisiest among them, stood with his mouth open and a frozen expression, as though he had lost his voice...
After a long while, under the infusion of immense power, the twelve illusory phantoms arrayed around Wu Tian suddenly overlapped toward the center, colliding in an instant!
"Boom!"
The change came once more.
All the Ancestral Witches took a step back in unison. The shock on their faces deepened, mixed with an incomparably intense joy.
By all reason, with twelve phantoms merging together... shouldn't they have become more solid and distinct than before? Yet after the collision, they turned into a shadow so faint it was nearly invisible...
But its aura was undeniably real!
"Pangu True Form!"
Zhurong finally could not hold back a startled cry.
As soon as his voice fell, that phantom instantly dispersed, like a fleeting glimpse of a startled swan...
The next moment, Ancestral Witch Dijiang slapped Zhurong away with a single blow. Then Dijiang glared at him in extreme annoyance, his eyes seeming to say:
What, you're the only one who knows anything?
What are you shouting so loudly for!
Look what you've done... you scared Wu Tian!
The Ancestral Witches who had also wanted to shout felt their throats tighten. They swallowed their unvoiced cries of alarm and forcibly suppressed the joy in their hearts.
After warning the Ancestral Witches not to disturb Wu Tian's cultivation, Dijiang looked toward Wu Tian again. The exceedingly faint phantom from before had already vanished, but his heart was utterly certain:
That truly was the aura of Pangu True Form!
In that brief instant, he had nearly prostrated himself uncontrollably, seized by the urge to kneel before Father God...
"Pangu True Form..."
"Wu Tian actually cultivated Pangu True Form!"
Dijiang's heart surged like the tides.
He murmured to himself without cease!
In truth, they should have been prepared for this long ago. When they had given Wu Tian the twelve drops of Ancestral Witch Essence Blood to refine, had they not been filled with expectation?
But when this day truly arrived, Dijiang still felt an incomparably immense shock...
This was Pangu True Form!
Only when all twelve Ancestral Witches acted together, using the Twelve Heavenly Gods Killing Formation to link everyone's power, could they summon Pangu True Form—and even then, it could only exist for a single breath.
Yet Wu Tian, relying on himself...
could cultivate the aura of Pangu True Form!
That phantom had indeed been extremely faint, but Dijiang knew... having it and its strength were two entirely different things.
What had just happened proved that Wu Tian already possessed it.
All he needed now was cultivation, to strengthen it...
And one day, he would surely achieve it!
The instant the phantom disappeared, the blood-fiend qi within Pangu Hall also scattered at once, swiftly returning to calm. Even after absorbing so much Killing Intent, Wu Tian's entire body still lacked the fierce, baleful aura of the Ancestral Witches...
The restrained divine radiance emanating from his flesh, the powerful and well-proportioned form of every muscle—it was like a peerless divine creation wrought by heaven and earth.
Strange light rippled through Xuan Ming and Houtu's eyes...
It was not only his physical body that had changed.
Wu Tian's soul had also undergone an earth-shaking transformation. The Law imprints originally engraved upon his soul had completely fused, becoming a hazy gray shadow!
It vaguely resembled a human figure.
As the gray shadow engraved itself within him, Wu Tian's soul instantly shone with brilliance, unexpectedly gaining a trace of the true meaning of indestructibility...
