Lin Tian paused, a smile spreading across his face, then quickly waved his hand and said with a laugh, "We merely wished to witness the Demon God's emergence and observe from the sidelines—no other intent!"

Lin Tian's aura was calm and unremarkable, carrying no killing intent.

Pangu, seeing this, scrutinized Lin Tian with piercing eyes. Only after confirming that the other party truly did not seem to be seeking trouble did he nod and slowly retract the Spiritual Treasure in his hand.

Then, he threw his head back and let out a hearty, booming laugh: "Hahaha! I never imagined that upon my birth, I would attract so many Demon Gods to come and watch—truly amusing!"

Lin Tian stepped forward with a smile, first cupping his hands in greeting to Pangu, then beginning to introduce himself.

After the two had exchanged names, Lin Tian turned and pointed to the Chaos Demon Ape and Yang Mei in turn, introducing them one by one to Pangu: "This is the Chaos Demon Ape, my younger brother; and this is the Space Demon God Yang Mei, also no one to underestimate."

Pangu studied the Chaos Demon Ape and Yang Mei with keen interest, a flicker of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Then, the group exchanged pleasantries, the atmosphere warm and harmonious.

At this point, Pangu's mood grew even brighter. He abruptly turned his head, swept his gaze across the surrounding Demon Gods, and called out loudly, "Today, I have just arrived in this world and am in excellent spirits, so I will not bother settling scores with you lot.

Disperse at once! If any of you still harbor resentment and wish to challenge me again, by all means, come at me!"

Hearing Pangu's words, the Demon Gods exchanged glances, momentarily at a loss.

But soon, they realized Pangu genuinely intended to let them off the hook, and one by one, they breathed sighs of relief.

Without further delay, the Demon Gods each unleashed their divine powers and fled the scene as fast as they could.

After all, in today's battle where hundreds of Demon Gods had ganged up on one, the result was their own side being thoroughly routed and humiliated.

Though their hearts burned with fury and resentment, faced with Pangu's unfathomable strength, they were utterly helpless!

At that moment, Yang Mei spoke up, "I see that you, fellow Daoist, have only just emerged and yet your cultivation has already reached the peak of the Heavenly Dao Realm—truly terrifying and enviable!"

He himself had cultivated painstakingly to this day and only reached the mid-stage of the Heavenly Dao Realm.

Demon God comparing to Demon God—tears welled up in both eyes!

Beside him, the Chaos Demon Ape's eyes were also filled with envy!

Though Pangu's current cultivation level could not match that of his elder brother, Pangu's strength had already surged ahead of all the other Chaos Demon Gods.

How could this not stir envy!

Pangu laughed heartily, unconcerned, and said, "This little bit of strength of mine is nothing before the Great Dao. I only advanced so quickly thanks to the Supreme Treasure in my hands."

At this, Lin Tian proposed that since they had gathered by fate, why not discuss the Dao together?

Lin Tian's suggestion was accepted by all without hesitation.

Pangu had no objections—newly born as he was, he naturally wanted to make more friends.

Yang Mei, on the other hand, seemed eager, clearly showing his thirst for power.

Then, right there, Lin Tian brought out his architectural Spiritual Treasure—the Lin Dao Pavilion!

The Spiritual Treasure promptly enlarged and settled onto the ground.

"Everyone, please enter!"

Lin Tian warmly invited them inside.

Pangu and Yang Mei looked up at the plaque before them. "Lin Dao Pavilion? A fine name—'Lin' meaning to tower above the Great Dao. Haha, it seems your ambitions, fellow Daoist, are lofty indeed!"

"This name reflects your state of mind. We cultivators should indeed achieve the Great Dao and roam free and unfettered!"

Lin Tian, a bit embarrassed by the praise, waved his hand. "Fellow Daoists, do not mock me. Please, go on in!"

Seeing this, Pangu and Yang Mei said no more and entered.

As they walked, they looked around, clicking their tongues in wonder.

Their admiration was plain on their faces—pavilions, towers, lofty mountains, flowing waters—everything one could wish for.

"Fellow Daoist Lin Tian's skill in artifact refinement is also unparalleled—it puts this old Daoist to shame!"

Yang Mei sighed. Since his birth, he had only focused on his own cultivation, letting external things take their course without much care. Now, seeing that Lin Tian was not only profound in cultivation and formations but also skilled in artifact refinement, he felt truly ashamed!

"Ah, Fellow Daoist Yang Mei, I merely tinker idly in my spare time—nothing worth mentioning!"

Lin Tian quickly comforted him. If he kept going, Yang Mei might actually cry.

Was this really the Space Demon God Yang Mei? His tolerance was far too poor!

He was practically acting like a little grudge-holder!

Lin Tian shook his head sharply, dismissing the thought.

Pangu then added his praise, "My inherited memories also contain knowledge of artifact refinement, and I can see that your skill, fellow Daoist, is indeed high. Though it only reaches the level of an Innate Supreme Treasure, that is still quite impressive."

Lin Tian smiled faintly. "You flatter me, you flatter me!"

Then, the group arrived at a pavilion to rest.

Lin Tian waved his hand, and a table appeared, laden with many Spiritual Fruits and a pot of Spiritual Wine!

"Fellow Daoist Lin Tian, what is this? It smells wonderful?"

Pangu, catching the scent, looked at the wine jug beside him, puzzled.

Lin Tian explained, "This is a Spirit Fruit Wine I brewed from many spiritual fruits—it's absolutely delicious!"

He then took out cups and filled them for everyone.

The Chaos Demon Ape couldn't wait to pick up his cup and down it in one gulp.

"Big brother, the Spiritual Wine you brew is way too good. Every time I drink it, I feel like I can never get enough, hehe!"

"Yes, indeed, Fellow Daoist Lin Tian. This old Daoist tried it once before and found it quite excellent, but I simply don't understand how it's brewed. Otherwise, I'd want to make some myself."

Yang Mei lifted his cup and slowly savored its taste.

Smooth on the entry, rich in flavor, with a fragrant aroma wafting from the wine!

Pangu watched the two of them, their expressions utterly entranced, so he raised his cup and drained it in one go.

A moment later, his eyes lit up, and Pangu praised, "Fellow Daoist, this Spiritual Wine of yours is truly not bad, haha! I am fortunate in my palate today."

Thus, he had Lin Tian pour him another cup.

Lin Tian said nothing, merely urging everyone to eat and drink.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill.

Lin Tian, Pangu, and Yang Mei began their discussion of the Dao.

The Chaos Demon Ape, however, had no interest whatsoever. He cultivated the Law of Battle and grew fastest only through combat.

The Chaos Demon Ape wanted to go sleep, but Lin Tian pressed him down and forced him to listen to the preaching.

Under the threat of his big brother's glare, the Chaos Demon Ape sat reluctantly to the side, his expression helpless.

"I cultivate the Great Dao of Strength. What is strength? It is the foundation of all things. Though there may be ten thousand transformations, I break them all with a single force..."

"I cultivate the Great Dao of Space. Close at hand, yet far in chaos. One step, one chaos. Shuttling through space, free and unfettered..."

"I cultivate the Great Dao of Chaos. Chaos embraces all things: one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, three gives birth to the ten thousand things..."

The three took turns expounding their respective Daos, releasing their Celebration Clouds.

In an instant, Dao Rhythm permeated the entire Lin Dao Pavilion. Golden Lotuses covered the ground, and an exotic fragrance assailed the nose.

At first, the Chaos Demon Ape was distracted, but as the three preached the Dao, he unknowingly became immersed in it.

The auras of the four of them also shifted continuously.
