Three Thousand Demon Gods Are Born

In the years that followed.

Three Thousand Demon Gods were born one after another. The Three Thousand Demon Gods did not mean there were only three thousand Demon Gods; it was a general term referring to the strongest three thousand Chaos Demon Gods.

The number of Chaos Demon Gods was far greater than three thousand.

During this time, Hong Yuan also fell asleep countless times.

Whenever he awoke, he would chat with Pangu and tell him stories from his previous life.

Pangu listened with great interest.

The only thing that dissatisfied him somewhat was that Hong Yuan's stories were too short.

As Chaos Demon Gods who had lived through who knew how many kalpas,

the passage of time seemed especially powerless before them.

Even if Hong Yuan gathered countless stories together and tried his best to prolong the time, to Pangu, it still felt like no more than an instant.

As Pangu watched Hong Yuan sink into slumber, his mind continued to revisit the stories Hong Yuan had told him.

In particular, he could never forget the story of Snow White transforming into Ultraman and battling the Seven Calabash Brothers.

From what Hong Yuan had said, Snow White should have been the Law of Snow, while Ultraman was the Law of Giants.

But as far as he knew, the wielders of the Law of Snow and the Law of Giants were not those two.

Still, he was curious about where Hong Yuan had heard those stories.

Hong Yuan had never gone outside either, had he?

While asleep, Hong Yuan also unconsciously continued absorbing the surrounding Chaos Qi and laws, constantly strengthening himself.

Though he did not actively absorb them, that Chaos Qi and those laws still continuously flowed into his body.

Even so, Hong Yuan still felt that Form Transformation remained far beyond his reach.

And not only that, his cultivation had never been able to break through to the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Realm.

(Realm divisions: Earthly Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Mystic Immortal, Golden Immortal, Grand Unity Golden Immortal, Grand Unity Golden Immortal, Primordial Origin Golden Immortal (Quasi-Saint), Primordial Origin Golden Immortal (Heavenly Dao Saint), Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal (Heavenly Dao Realm), Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal (Great Dao Realm))

Hong Yuan did not know why, but his path always seemed shrouded in a layer of fog.

And he was unlike the other Chaos Demon Gods.

They were born with a mature Great Dao Law accompanying them.

He did not know whether it was because he was an outsider.

As for the other Chaos Demon Gods, from the moment they were born, each of them clearly knew which Great Dao Law suited them best.

Like his elder brother's Law of Strength, and Shi Chen's and Yang Mei's Time Law and Space Law.

What about him?

He had all these laws within his body, and he could use every one of them, but what gave him a headache was that every law had stalled at the peak of the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Realm, unable to advance any further.

Not only that, he also possessed several other Great Dao Laws within his body.

Whenever he tried to break through to the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Realm,

he always ended in failure.

It had been like this since several kalpas ago.

There had not been the slightest progress.

Even when he asked his elder brother, Pangu merely shook his head and said that he did not know either.

He merely said that perhaps the time had not yet come, and Hong Yuan's path had yet to reveal itself.

Could my path lie in the Primordial Wilderness?

Hearing Pangu's words, Hong Yuan fell into deep thought.

As time passed, more than ten Great Dao Laws were added to Hong Yuan's body.

Every one of those laws, like the ones before them, stalled once they reached the peak of the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Realm.

Vaguely, Hong Yuan could sense that the day his elder brother emerged was not far off.

After several dozen more kalpas passed,

a notification suddenly startled Hong Yuan awake.

"Ding—System repaired."

Hearing the voice ring out in his mind, Hong Yuan froze.

I actually have a system?

But the next moment, Hong Yuan's face darkened. "Why did you only appear now, System? It has been so many years. Do you know how I got through them? Do you know how terrified I have been all these years?"

With his current strength, if not for Pangu's protection, forget about those Chaos Demon Gods wandering through Chaos.

Even the turbulent currents within Chaos could kill him.

After all, Pangu had not yet opened the heavens, and all of Chaos remained in a violent state. Those terrifying Chaos currents were enough to grind all living beings below the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Realm into nothingness.

After all, even Great Dao Father probably had not expected there to be someone below the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Realm here.

After all, every Chaos Demon God in Chaos possessed the strength of a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal the moment they were born.

Not to mention the innate treasures of the other Demon Gods, even those who had only just developed consciousness possessed at least the strength of a Primordial Origin Golden Immortal.

Someone like Hong Yuan, with neither an innate treasure nor cultivation above the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Realm, was unprecedented.

Hearing Hong Yuan's complaints, the system's voice gained a touch of humanlike helplessness.

"In order to transform the host and place him inside the Chaos Green Lotus, this system previously entered dormancy."

Before Hong Yuan could react, the system's notification rang directly in his mind.

"Pangu is about to be born. Due to the host's unforeseen involvement, Pangu's Origin has suffered minor damage. Please choose—"

[One: It has nothing to do with me. Better a fellow Daoist die than me. Let Pangu be born like this—Reward: cultivation successfully breaks through to the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Realm, 50 drops of Pangu's Essence Blood, 50 portions of marrow essence, Time Law, Chaos Supreme Treasure—Chaos Green Lotus]

[Two: That is my elder brother. I must save him!—Reward: one portion of Pangu's Origin, Chaos Supreme Treasure—Chaos Bead]

[Three: Sorry, Pangu. We are not close. I will join the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods and deal with Pangu together!—Reward: immediate birth, first level of the Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm, Chaos Supreme Treasure—World-Opening Axe]

Looking at the three choices in his mind, Hong Yuan fell into thought for a moment.

First, he eliminated option three. Pangu was his elder brother.

For such a paltry reward,

the system wanted to drive a wedge between him and his elder brother?

Who was it looking down on?

Besides, a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal was, at best, comparable to the other Chaos Demon Gods.

And not even one of the strongest ones.

For all he knew, his elder brother might go red-eyed and split him in half with a single slash.

Now only two choices remained. Without question, the rewards for the first choice were far more generous than those for the second.

And with his elder brother's strength, killing those Chaos Demon Gods would be like destroying dry weeds and rotten wood, without the slightest pressure.

He just did not know how the system intended to obtain this Essence Blood and marrow essence.

It would not directly draw his elder brother's Essence Blood and marrow essence, would it?

After hesitating for a moment, Hong Yuan sighed.

"I choose two!"

After all, his elder brother had been harmed because of him, and his elder brother also bore the mission of opening the heavens and creating the Primordial Wilderness.

If possible, he still wanted to make it up to his elder brother.

Once Hong Yuan made his choice,

a portion of Origin and a bead suddenly appeared within Hong Yuan's Primordial Spirit.

Elsewhere in Chaos,

a Chaos Demon God suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale. An incomparably terrifying aura instantly erupted from his body and spread in all directions, causing all of Chaos to shake violently.

He let out a hoarse roar.

"Where is my bead?"

"Where is my enormous Chaos Bead?!!"

Just moments ago, his innate treasure, the Chaos Bead, had actually vanished from his Primordial Spirit.

This was the Chaos Bead he treasured beyond measure, one he wished he could worship.

Had he not been formed from Chaos Qi and occupied a share of Causality merit, he would never have obtained this Chaos Bead.

With this Chaos Bead, he had leapt into the ranks of the strongest Chaos Demon Gods.

Apart from Shi Chen and Yang Mei,

the rest of the Chaos Demon Gods were nothing but marked goods waiting to be beheaded, utterly beneath his notice.

This was entirely thanks to the Chaos Bead, one of the five great Chaos Supreme Treasures.

Thus, he usually treasured the Chaos Bead dearly.

But now, his Chaos Bead had vanished.

Not only that, his connection with the Chaos Bead had been erased in an instant.

With his cultivation, he could not even sense who had done it.

Hearing the Chaos Demon God's hoarse roar echoing throughout all of Chaos,

many people immediately frowned.

What was Chaos going mad over?

But the Chaos Demon God showed no sign of letting up. His aura became ever more terrifying as it swept across many people with an incomparably frenzied momentum.

Feeling the Chaos Demon God's violent aura, many people's frowns deepened.

Was Chaos pretending they did not exist?!

The Chaos Demon God scanned countless light-years around him, yet he still could not sense the presence of his Chaos Bead.

This only drove him further into madness.

"Who?!!!"

"Who stole my supreme treasure?!!!"

Upon hearing this, the Demon Gods who had still been angry were all stunned.

The Chaos Demon God's supreme treasure had actually been taken?!

For real?!

Was that a joke? Who could take his supreme treasure?

With Chaos's strength, coupled with his one-of-a-kind Chaos Supreme Treasure, even Shi Chen and Yang Mei would not dare claim they could defeat him with absolute certainty within all of Chaos.

And now, his Chaos Bead had been taken?

This was simply too absurd. (Aside from Chaos, the innate treasures of the other Three Thousand Demon Gods were all Chaos Spirit Treasures. I originally considered making everyone's innate treasure a Chaos Supreme Treasure, but after thinking about it, that would have been too absurd. No matter how powerful Pangu was, he could not defeat them all. Even if he could, there should not be so many ridiculously powerful treasures in the Primordial Wilderness.)

Pangu also sensed the Chaos Demon God's frenzy from countless light-years away and became somewhat confused.

"That aura seems to be Chaos? It sounds like someone stole his Chaos Bead?"

Hearing his elder brother muttering beside him, Hong Yuan's pupils contracted. He unconsciously edged a little closer to Pangu.

He could not help feeling somewhat guilty.
