"BOOM!!!"

The Primordial Era trembled!

No, to be precise, all the water veins within the Primordial Era... trembled at this moment!

Countless auras evolved, divine laws boiled like a vast ocean.

With a single thought, the origin of Wish rapidly evolved, giving birth to countless phenomena that bowed in reverence.

To make a move, the momentum must first be sufficient.

Just for show?

Yes, that's right, he was indeed just for show, but his "for show" was... incredibly intimidating!!!

One, two, three...

In an instant, the Three Thousand Great Daos all descended, fully projected, as if transforming into rivers that bowed and circled around Tang Xuan.

It was as if he carried the River of Three Thousand Great Daos, as if the entire River of Great Daos had returned to Tang Xuan himself.

Magnificent! Sublime! Unfathomable! Immeasurable!

Wisps of Great Dao transformed into ethereal mist and Dao rhythm, descending like rain. In the haze, it seemed as if one could see the birth of all worlds behind Tang Xuan, and the downfall of all realms.

It was as if myriad worlds were born, and as if immeasurable universes were destroyed, as if holding life in one hand and crushing nothingness with the other.

Amidst the delineation of all laws and all Daos, a sublime, majestic, unfathomable, and immeasurable long river vaguely appeared in the void, seemingly surpassing all dimensions and concepts. Even the most eloquent language could hardly describe a single detail of this river.

The river seemed to move with Tang Xuan, flowing because of Tang Xuan, its aura identical, yet incomparably unique.

As Tang Xuan slightly raised his eyes, the status of the River of Myriad Treasures was activated. This supremely noble, supreme, and immortal river projection seemed to stir slightly, revealing a corner.

Upon seeing this, Hongjun and the other three Hunyuan realm powerhouses' pupils contracted, a sense of enlightenment dawning in their hearts.

That river, which made their hearts tremble just by looking at it, as if it were the source of all, the root of all... was this being's true body!!!

The River God senior before them was perhaps just a wisp of true spirit, a clone. Because its true body's status was too high, it could only descend as an avatar!

Standing above all Daos, soaring above the peak of time and space, all worlds and realms were as tiny as dust before it. Hiss, what level was this River God senior, and what realm was it truly in?

Could it be that he transcended all heavens and myriad worlds, transcended all concepts!?

Indeed, indeed! This being was merely playing in the mortal world!!!

No wonder this being seemed omnipotent, no wonder this being gave off an unfathomable aura. It was confirmed, finally confirmed, their Primordial Era had obtained... a supreme opportunity!

The four suddenly felt a sense of gratitude. Fortunately, the Gate of Taboo had angered this being, otherwise, how would they have known its true identity?

The Gate of Taboo... a good deed indeed!

Looking again at the Gate of Taboo, it was already stunned. At some unknown point, all sound had ceased, all whispers had abruptly stopped, as if it had fallen into deep existential doubt.

Were the special effects useless?

Who said the special effects were useless? As long as the special effects were exaggerated enough, there was no need to fear them being useless. No one, absolutely no one, could resist being intimidated!

"BOOM!!!"

An invisible roar erupted. Under the projection of the River of Myriad Treasures' status, the Gate of Taboo seemed to sense the presence of its natural enemy. It trembled slightly, and wisps of its origin were forcibly stripped away, devoured madly by Tang Xuan.

Under normal circumstances, Tang Xuan would have found it somewhat troublesome to devour it, as it wasn't incapable of resisting.

But now, it was different. The intimidated Gate of Taboo had no thought of resisting, only fear and dread remained. Only after its origin was stolen by Tang Xuan did it awaken.

"Who are you!"

"Who exactly are you!"

"How can a being like you exist!"

"Impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Vicious, resentful, frenzied, and maddened whispers emanated from the Gate of Taboo.

As if due to the emotional fluctuations of these beings, the entire Gate of Taboo was shaking, and wisps of black mist overflowed from it, containing extreme destruction and decay.

Undoubtedly, Tang Xuan's intimidation had been a complete success.

Even though limited by his cultivation, his River of Myriad Treasures' status couldn't completely devour the Gate of Taboo, only stealing a portion of its origin. No one would overthink this, merely assuming that Tang Xuan was only using an avatar and couldn't bear much power.

Even more terrifyingly.

It was just an avatar, merely wielding a portion of his authority. Didn't they see that the river only revealed a corner?

With just this, he could forcibly strip the origin of the Gate of Taboo. What would happen if this being unleashed more power?

Wouldn't the entire Gate of Taboo be annihilated???

"Provoking this seat?"

"Who gave you the courage!"

Tang Xuan ignored them and took another step forward, his expression indifferent.

He knew very well that simply bestowing favors was not the way; it would only make people lose their awe. Only by combining grace and might was the true path.

Tang Xuan had originally been wondering when to establish his authority. If necessary, he wouldn't mind secretly orchestrating a forceful display of power, though that would be somewhat beneath him.

And now, the Gate of Taboo had taken the initiative to appear?

What a stroke of luck!

If the beings within the Gate of Taboo could escape, then it would indeed be difficult for him to fight. But it was just the Gate of Taboo, and it was naturally suppressed by the River of Myriad Treasures. What was there to say?

If he didn't use this to establish his authority, then who else would he use it for?

Channeling the authority of the River of Myriad Laws!

The River of Myriad Treasures and the River of Myriad Laws merged!

The phenomenon coincided perfectly, causing the river, which was already visible in the void, appearing majestic and grand even with only a portion revealed, to flow once more, as if slowly unveiling another corner.

Half-step Primordial?

With the empowerment of his status, Tang Xuan's strength was in no way inferior to a Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal. He was even more mysterious, and with the suppression of origin, he was overwhelming!

Instantly, the Gate of Taboo vibrated, and a continuous stream of black mist poured out, transforming into pure origin that Tang Xuan rapidly refined.

If not for needing the Chaos Bead as a foundation, the resources he could have plundered from the Gate of Taboo alone would have been enough for Tang Xuan to achieve Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal!

Hongjun's eyes lit up at the sight.

Luohu's breathing quickened.

Ancestral Dragon and Qiankun rejoiced greatly!

So the Gate of Taboo could indeed be exploited for resources!

They were not as capable as the senior River God, and couldn't exploit it now, but if their strength increased, who knew if they wouldn't be able to steal from it.

This was promising, very promising!

"Scram!!!"

Tang Xuan said coldly, the myriad rivers empowering him, the origin of the Gate of Taboo draining wildly.

"The end is inevitable. River God... we don't believe that the descent of a being like you comes without limitations. We will definitely return, we will definitely return!!!"

The Gate of Taboo seemed to tremble slightly, and resentful whispers emanated from it. It uttered threats, and then the Gate of Taboo quickly retreated, completely vanishing into nothingness.
