As Hong Yuan's voice fell, three more Laws appeared within him: the Law of Martial Arts, the Law of Demons, and the Law of Command.
They were not entirely useless; they were merely better than nothing.
Other than strengthening his origin, there was nothing particularly praiseworthy about them.
Hong Yuan did not immediately choose to absorb that portion of origin. Instead, he turned his gaze toward Pangu.
This was World Creation.
Shouldn't he watch it properly?
At this moment, Pangu had also adjusted himself. Holding the Sky-Opening Divine Axe, he wasted no words and swung it straight at Chaos.
This strike contained all of Pangu's strength. The violent Law of Strength wrapped around the axe light as it cleaved directly toward the edge of Chaos.
A heaven-shaking crack rang out.
Chaos was actually split open.
A trace of delight appeared on Pangu's face at the sight.
Without the slightest hesitation, Pangu swung another axe strike.
A third strike, a fourth strike...
Pangu unleashed one hundred and seven strikes in a single breath.
"Open for me!!!" Pangu roared. His hair stirred without wind, boundless Mana surged from his body, and the Law of Strength stood behind him like a divine pillar.
He resembled an endless divine demon, possessing an indescribable domineering aura.
"Boom!!"
As the final axe strike fell—
Chaos finally split apart!
At that moment, the World-Opening Axe in Pangu's hand shattered with a bang, dividing into three pieces.
The axe blade became the Pangu Banner, the axe back became the Taiji Diagram, and the axe handle became the Chaos Bell.
Hong Yuan knew of these three treasures as well.
They would later become the renowned three Innate Supreme Treasures.
All of them would resound throughout the Primordial Wilderness in the future.
"Boom!"
With a thunderous crash, the three Innate Supreme Treasures scattered at once.
They shot off in all directions.
Even though Hong Yuan wanted to keep them behind—
He had yet to undergo Form Transformation, and could not bring much of his strength into play. Stopping them would not be easy.
Nor could he ask his elder brother to act, since this was a critical moment for him.
Forget it. I already have the Chaos Bead and the World-Destroying Millstone. If necessary, I can look for them after undergoing Form Transformation!
Pangu had just unleashed his one hundred and eighth strike and had not yet caught his breath.
Then, with a boom—
The newly separated Chaos actually attempted to fuse back together.
"This is bad. Chaos has only just divided; it is not yet stable!" Pangu's expression turned somewhat grim.
He no longer hesitated. His body suddenly expanded, and he used his hands to support the upper half of Chaos.
At the same time, Pangu directly activated the four Chaos Supreme Treasures on his body, placing them at the four corners of Chaos.
This stopped the upper and lower halves of Chaos from joining together.
"Hah! Rise for me!!!"
As Pangu shouted, veins bulged across his arms, and the Law of Strength poured from his body without restraint.
He forcibly held up the upper half of Chaos.
Hong Yuan was so excited by the sight that he was nearly speechless.
Although he had long heard of his elder brother's deeds in his previous life, some things could never truly be understood without witnessing them firsthand.
Chaos was boundless, without an edge, and it was even continuously expanding.
With Hong Yuan's current strength, even if he rushed toward the edge of Chaos, he might not move faster than Chaos expanded.
Yet Pangu had directly held up such an incomparably vast Chaos.
One could only imagine how absurdly powerful Pangu truly was.
At this time, although Pangu's face had flushed red from the strain, he still looked toward Hong Yuan.
If you can't find the book by searching its title, try searching for the author instead. It may simply have been renamed!
Clenching his teeth, he joked, "Little... brother, do you think... your elder brother... looks... commanding?"
"Commanding? You're fucking awesome!!"
Hearing Hong Yuan's praise, Pangu immediately burst into laughter. "Heh... heh."
But that laugh caused him to lose a trace of strength.
He staggered beneath his feet.
Hong Yuan was so frightened that he nearly jumped, cold sweat streaming down his back.
"Elder Brother, steady yourself. Don't get distracted."
Hong Yuan feared that a moment of distraction from his elder brother would make him explode on the spot. That would be utterly disastrous.
Still, he could not help regretting teaching his elder brother too much knowledge from his previous life.
Now, his elder brother no longer seemed as simple and honest as he had at first.
"It's... nothing. Mere... Chaos is... easy... to handle!" Pangu gritted his teeth and took a long while to force out those words.
Hong Yuan immediately rolled his eyes at Pangu's desperate need to save face.
If Pangu's teeth were not grinding audibly, he might have pretended to believe him.
And so, Hong Yuan chatted with Pangu while continuously comprehending and absorbing the remaining Laws and rules.
As time passed, Chaos gradually began to change.
The entirety of Chaos began to divide into two kinds.
The light and clear Qi rose to become Heaven, while the heavy and turbid Qi condensed below to become Earth.
Heaven and Earth began to take shape at this moment.
Pangu stood silently in place, holding up the sky.
Heaven rose one zhang each day, while Earth thickened one zhang each day.
Whenever Heaven rose one zhang, Pangu's body grew one zhang along with it.
No one knew how much time had passed, but Hong Yuan discovered that his elder brother's aura was gradually weakening.
Whenever Hong Yuan asked about it, Pangu would always bare his teeth in a stubborn grin.
"This little Heaven... and Earth are... easy... to handle!"
Despite Pangu's words, Hong Yuan could still sense his elder brother weakening.
Several more Kalpas passed. Looking at Heaven and Earth, Hong Yuan could no longer see their limits. Heaven and Earth had completely taken shape, and the changing laws between them had emerged.
But his elder brother had also declined to the extreme.
He could no longer even remain conscious at all times.
It was not as though Hong Yuan had never considered giving his elder brother the origin-strengthening power he had obtained earlier, but his elder brother had always refused to absorb it.
Hong Yuan and Pangu shared the same origin. Not only could Hong Yuan absorb this portion of origin, but Pangu could as well.
That was why Hong Yuan had not chosen to absorb it: he had intended to save it for Pangu.
Yet Pangu had always refused. Even when Hong Yuan tried to force that origin-strengthening power into Pangu's body, he could not do so.
Because Pangu was unwilling.
This made Hong Yuan somewhat worried. Could it be that his elder brother truly would end up as before?
Several more Kalpas passed.
One day, Pangu suddenly awakened.
With a thought, he merged the bodies and Laws of the Chaos Demon Gods he had slain into the Primordial Wilderness. Then he recalled the four Chaos Supreme Treasures that had stabilized the four directions of Heaven and Earth.
Looking at the four supreme treasures, Pangu chuckled softly. "Go."
As Pangu's words fell, the remaining fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation suddenly merged into the sky.
The Chaos Green Lotus also began to break apart. One fully mature lotus seed, four immature lotus seeds, the lotus petals, stem, and leaves all vanished into the void, scattering in every direction.
Hong Yuan's eyes burned with desire.
He knew that the Chaos Green Lotus would transform into more than ten magical treasures.
Even the worst of them would be Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.
Although he had no use for them, who would ever complain about having too many treasures?
He could always give them away when he took in mounts or attendants in the future.
Just as the lotus pod of the Chaos Green Lotus was about to disappear—
Hong Yuan finally spoke. "Elder Brother, I want that!"
Upon hearing Hong Yuan speak, Pangu immediately tossed aside his original plans and handed it to him, smiling foolishly. "Here, Little Brother. If you want it, then take it!"
