(This is my first time writing a Primordial Wilderness story. I hope all you Dao Ancestors will be understanding. Everyone may have a different Primordial Wilderness in their hearts, so the author kneels here to wish all Dao Ancestors of China swift riches and a new bride every night.)
The chaos was vast and boundless, its turbid waves churning.
Pangu's muscles knotted across his body like countless ancient divine dragons coiling around him. With supreme divine power, he forcibly held apart the chaotic heaven and earth that kept squeezing inward, trying to heal once more.
Clear Qi rose while Turbid Qi sank. A nascent Primordial Wilderness, born from Primordial Judgment, struggled to endure beneath his towering, heaven-supporting body.
Just as the world had first opened, a faint and illusory remnant soul, as though it might dissipate completely at any moment, was quietly swept into this newly born Primordial World by Spacetime Turbulence.
He curled up and fell into a deep slumber, utterly unaware of the overwhelming power around him.
Pangu's eyes, which saw through chaos and pierced the River of Time, instantly fell upon that tiny remnant soul.
With one glance, he knew its past life, present life, and future.
As Heaven-Opening tore through chaos, it also stirred up terrifying vortices of space and time.
It was he who had forcibly dragged this remnant soul, which did not belong to this world, across distant time and space.
"Very well..."
A sigh that spanned eternity echoed within Pangu's heart, carrying an understanding of the Karma binding them.
"It was I who opened heaven and earth and disturbed the River of Time, drawing you, a soul from another land, into this calamity. Since you have come, I shall grant you a Thread of Life!"
With a slight thought, he turned his gaze toward the enormous Lotus Platform that held up his body in the chaotic void—the Chaos Green Lotus.
At this moment, more than half of the Green Lotus's petals had already withered from the immense expenditure of Heaven-Opening. Its Lotus Platform was covered in cracks, and its origin power was rapidly draining away. Clearly, it had reached the end of its strength.
Without hesitation, Pangu drew upon the last remaining origin at the heart of the Green Lotus.
It was a Chaos Undying Spiritual Light containing the complete laws of the Great Dao!
This spiritual light contained an entire Great Dao law. Whether used for comprehension or to enhance a spiritual treasure, it possessed endless wondrous uses.
"With this spiritual light, I shall alter your fate. In the future... you shall no longer perish!"
Pangu's deep Dao Sound rumbled through the chaos.
With a sweep of his hand, that brilliant and pure spiritual light, like a meteor flowing with the traces of the Great Dao, tore through the newly opened world and landed precisely in a corner of the nascent Primordial Wilderness—
There stood an ancient, vigorous tree, yet it had neither leaves nor branches.
Beside the Undying Spiritual Light, the sleeping remnant soul seemed to answer the call of its origin. Drawn naturally by the ancient tree's vast, majestic vitality and spiritual essence, it silently merged into the massive trunk as seamlessly as water blending with milk.
Rumble—!
At the very instant Pangu cast out the Chaos Undying Spiritual Light and the remnant soul merged with the ancient tree, it was as if the final straw had broken the camel's back.
The three Chaos supreme treasures, already shattered from Heaven-Opening, finally exhausted the last of their origin power that sustained their forms!
The Chaos Green Lotus's final few resilient petals completely withered and scattered, while its enormous Lotus Platform collapsed with a thunderous crash!
The profound scriptures recording the supreme Great Dao upon the Jade Plate of Creation instantly dimmed, and the jade plate itself shattered into countless streams of light!
The Sky-Opening Divine Axe split directly into three!
The collapse of the three great Chaos supreme treasures was not a silent passing, but like the first thunderclap at the birth of the universe!
Fragments of the shattered treasures, mixed with fragments of the Three Thousand Demon Gods' spiritual treasures and their broken remains, shot across the sky like a rain of fiery meteors. Carrying an unstoppable, majestic force, they flew toward every corner of the newborn Primordial Wilderness, across the nine heavens and ten lands!
At this moment, the three thousand Innate Spiritual Treasures of later legends were born, accompanied by Great God Pangu's final gift and the lingering waves of creation!
Some of these spiritual treasures hid within famous mountains and great rivers, some sank into the deep seas of the netherworld, and some hung among the stars of the nine heavens, quietly awaiting those fated to find them in the future.
The Primordial Wilderness knew no years!
Chaos turned, and an unknown number of Kalpas passed.
At the foot of the towering Buzhou Mountain, within a deep valley.
The enormous tree that had stood bare since ancient times now quietly sprouted four tender leaves from its branches.
The leaves were huge as fans and perfectly oval, broad, thick, and sturdy. Their veins were as clear as the markings of the Heavenly Dao, flowing with the luster of primordial chaos.
Each leaf seemed like a miniature world, respectively containing the four great origin powers from the beginning of Heaven-Opening.
The broad and heavy earth, the formless wind, the gentlest yet most resilient water, and the violent, destructive fire.
Dense, mixed spiritual energy churned around the tree, forming a natural veil of illusion, while its chaotic energy field isolated the inside from the outside.
Even stranger, Yin-Yang Qi, symbolizing the foundation of all things, tightly coiled around the thick trunk, nourishing the life origin of this extraordinary tree.
"Uh... where is this?"
A confused consciousness awakened deep within the giant tree's core.
"Ah—!"
Suddenly, intense pain pierced his mind like countless steel needles stabbing in at once!
Zhou Yang's consciousness curled up painfully within the tree's heart. His illusory face twisted grotesquely, and his invisible teeth nearly shattered from clenching.
A massive flood of information crashed violently into his consciousness. Fragments of memories that did not belong to him, yet were connected to him, flashed wildly through his mind.
Ten thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
His consciousness condensed once more, and unprecedented clarity swept over him.
"Heavens... heavens!"
"I... I... I... transmigrated into the Primordial Wilderness?!"
The immense shock froze Zhou Yang's consciousness for a moment. The expression he conjured was incomparably complicated, carrying both an absurdly bitter smile and the bewilderment of facing the changes of ages.
He had only been an ordinary person who had just graduated from university.
A sudden car accident had ended his brief life.
After death, what virtue or ability had he possessed to escape reincarnation and cross the barriers of time and space, only to be born at the beginning of Heaven-Opening in this Primordial World, where deities filled the land and killing intent lurked everywhere?!
However, after digesting those immense memories, Zhou Yang quickly grasped the key information.
The good news was that his true body was the Banana Tree, one of the Primordial Wilderness's renowned Ten Innate Spiritual Roots! His foundation was extraordinary, and his potential limitless!
The bad news was that, as an Ultimate Innate Spiritual Root, his path to Transformation was perilous, with nine chances of death for every one chance of survival!
Even though the Heavenly Dao was still in its gradually improving nascent stage, it would never allow such a heaven-defying being to be born so easily.
The Transformation Thunder Tribulation it sent down would surely be terrifying beyond measure, enough to annihilate the souls of ordinary Golden Immortals or even Taiyi Golden Immortals!
Once the Heavenly Dao's rules were fully perfected, the power of that Thunder Tribulation... was simply unimaginable!
According to what he knew of the Primordial Wilderness, the only Ultimate Innate Spiritual Roots to successfully undergo Transformation were Daoist Zhunti of the West and Great Immortal Yang Mei.
And those two had only succeeded by sheer luck during the "lenient period," before Dao Ancestor Hongjun had attained Sagehood and while the Heavenly Dao's rules still contained many loopholes.
If it had been during the era when the Heavenly Dao was complete, they likely would not even have had the chance to be born!
What chilled Zhou Yang even more was that his situation was far more dangerous than Zhunti's or Yang Mei's!
