Omniscience! Peak Great Luo! The Time is Ripe! Luohu, Aren't You Coming Out Yet?

On a river near the East Sea in the Primordial Continent.

Tang Xuan, who had been in seclusion for a hundred million years, slowly opened his eyes.

Dao Principles rippled around him, and runes cascaded down, divine light and rainbow hues swirling like mist about his form.

"Foreknowledge of the Future... done!"

A sharp gleam flashed in his eyes as Tang Xuan murmured to himself.

After spending a hundred million years, he had finally fully deduced and perfected the Great Dao divine ability, Foreknowledge of the Future.

Yes, a Great Dao level divine ability!

Tang Xuan didn't know what level the Foreknowledge of the Future from the mythical Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Techniques was, but he knew that the divine ability he had deduced was at the Great Dao level!

"Thankfully, over these hundred million years, Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Feng, and Shi Qilin have been scheming and preparing in secret, continuously providing me with an endless stream of Wish Origin. Otherwise, deducing this divine ability would have been utterly impossible."

Tang Xuan couldn't help but sigh, a smile spreading across his face.

For this divine ability, he had burned nearly a million strands of Wish Origin—just imagine how terrifying it was.

"As long as my cultivation is sufficient, I can peer into any length of the future, including all possible branches across countless timelines, ignoring any shielding or concealment of Heavenly Secrets. This is nearly omniscience!"

Tang Xuan clicked his tongue in amazement.

Nearly omniscience!

Just those four words alone painted an unimaginably exaggerated picture.

"Over these hundred million years, while This Seat was in seclusion, my Avatar hasn't been idle either. The number of rivers I've absorbed has reached over ten thousand, and all the rivers near the East Sea have become my main body. My cultivation has also reached the peak of the Great Luo Realm."

"As long as I break through to Hunyuan Golden Immortal, I'll be able to peer into most possibilities within the next One Hui Yuan, at the very least!"

Tang Xuan thought to himself.

As the saying goes, one Hui is eighteen thousand years, one Yuan is twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty years, and one Hui Yuan is the product of the two, totaling thirteen billion nine hundred ninety-six million eight hundred thousand years.

Well, at least in this Primordial Continent where Tang Xuan resided, that was how time units worked.

"The time is ripe, everything is ready. It's time to start placing pieces on the board of Dao and Demon and overturn this game!"

Counting on his fingers and confirming that Luohu was already lurking in the shadows, Tang Xuan's smile grew even brighter as he stood up.

Not bad. As expected of the Devil Ancestor—after sensing something was off, he thought to lie in wait and check the situation. Since everything was proceeding according to his plan, this chess game was officially beginning!

"Buzz!"

Tang Xuan waved his hand, and a divine light vanished into the void.

Inside the Immortal Volcano.

Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Feng, and Shi Qilin seemed to sense something, their bodies trembling as they all suddenly rose to their feet.

The three exchanged glances, each seeing the joy in the others' eyes.

The River God had contacted them!

"Quick, to the Tongtian River!"

Ancestral Dragon said in a deep voice.

As his words fell, Ancestral Dragon transformed into a rainbow and departed first. Yuan Feng and Shi Qilin naturally didn't hesitate and followed immediately.

The three tribal leaders were heading to the Tongtian River, where part of Tang Xuan's main body resided!

Just as the three tribal leaders left the Immortal Volcano, Luohu, who had been hiding in a void layer outside the volcano resting with his eyes closed, immediately opened them.

A sharp gleam flashed in his eyes, and joy appeared on Luohu's face.

He had thought he'd have to wait quite a while, but it turned out there was a result this quickly?

"Hehehe, something's wrong, definitely something's wrong."

"Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Feng, and Shi Qilin—those three old bastards—are actually together?"

"It seems the place they're heading to is the source of all these anomalies!"

"Hah, trying to conceal their auras? If This Seat hadn't been lying in wait here, I might not have noticed their tracks at all."

Luohu chuckled excitedly, overjoyed, and followed without a second thought.

Let This Seat see just what's going on here. Why did these three suddenly stop fighting, and why does it look like they've formed a secret alliance? There's definitely a huge problem here!

East Sea, Tongtian River.

Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Feng, and Shi Qilin stepped out of the void.

Arriving by the Tongtian River, the three tribal leaders wasted no time and immediately threw all the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures they had secretly gathered over the past hundred million years into the river.

Luohu, who was hiding in the shadows and secretly watching the scene, was momentarily stunned. He frowned, unable to make sense of it.

What's going on?

These three sneaked all the way here just to dump resources into the river?

Are they burning money out of boredom?

Then he saw Tang Xuan's phantom appear above the river.

Can't find the book by title? Try searching by author—maybe it just changed names!

After hearing Tang Xuan call them the young Ancestral Dragon, the young Yuan Feng, and the young Shi Qilin, Luohu nearly burst out laughing.

It wasn't that his humor threshold was too low; it was just too ridiculous. These three old relics, reincarnations of Chaos Demon Gods, being called "young"—how was that even acceptable?

Tsk, tsk, and those three old things didn't even bat an eye.

Huh, asking whether it's the left or the right? Interesting.

"Hm?"

Luohu's expression subtly shifted.

Senior?

Just who is this person, to have Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Feng, and Shi Qilin calling him senior!?

So, the resources thrown in earlier were a gift?

Getting the Three Tribe leaders to give gifts!?

"I... can't deduce this person's origins?"

Luohu's pupils contracted.

Tang Xuan: Want to learn about Reverse Knowing the Future?

Don't forget, this divine ability involves time. With this great Dao divine power, Tang Xuan didn't even need to use the Wish Origin to conceal himself—Reverse Knowing the Future alone let him hide from any deduction or tracing.

"It seems you've made your decision."

Following the procedure, Tang Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, speaking with a smile.

"Yes, Senior."

"We beg Senior to guide us."

Ancestral Dragon bowed respectfully, then looked up at Tang Xuan with longing eyes alongside Yuan Feng and Shi Qilin.

They said nothing, but their eyes said everything.

They truly wanted to advance!!!

"If you want to strike back, you first need to decide who you're striking back against. The Heavenly Dao? Hongjun? Or perhaps... Luohu?"

Tang Xuan said leisurely.

Leaving aside the Three Tribe leaders, Luohu, hidden in the shadows, felt his eyelids twitch.

Wait, how did this involve him?

Strike back?

Strike back at him?

Damn, have I become a pawn of Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Feng, and Shi Qilin?

When he saw Ancestral Dragon and the other two exchange glances and then say they wanted to strike back at Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao, Luohu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't know why he felt relieved or why he was wary of these people, but inexplicably, he was just relieved.

As long as they weren't coming for him.

"Senior, though Luohu schemed against us, the true players are Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao."

"Luohu is just a pawn of Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao."

"So, we will take revenge on Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao."

Ancestral Dragon said solemnly.

Did they want revenge on Luohu?

Of course they did.

But they knew what mattered most.

Luohu might seem active, but he was just that—active. What use was revenge on Luohu alone? Without dealing with Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao, it was meaningless.

"So they really knew I was scheming behind the scenes."

Luohu's pupils contracted again, and he was furious.

What talk, what kind of talk was this? Me, a pawn?

A pawn of Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao?

Bullshit!

I am the Great Annihilation Demon God, about to annihilate the world—how could I be a pawn of Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao?

In a fit of rage, Luohu chose to endure it.

Let's see how things play out—he had already caught a whiff of something off.

"Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao, is it."

Tang Xuan nodded slowly. "In that case, Fellow Daoist Luohu, won't you come out now?"

As he spoke, Tang Xuan turned his gaze toward where Luohu was hiding.

Given Luohu's cultivation, if he wanted to conceal himself, Tang Xuan truly couldn't detect him—but that was fine. At the current node, he couldn't find him, yet just now, using his reverse knowledge of the future, he had already learned where Luohu was hiding.
