"Your might is awe-inspiring, Senior."

"Your might is awe-inspiring, Senior."

Hongjun and the others immediately offered their congratulations.

"Thank you all for your efforts."

Tang Xuan clasped his hands behind his back, his unusual aura dissipating. He glanced at the Wish Origin, noting that it had only cost a few hundred Dao marks.

Now that's what you call spending a little to achieve a lot!

"It is our honor to have the opportunity to serve you, Senior," Hongjun said hastily.

Luohu inwardly thought, This son of a bitch really knows how to butter someone up. However, since he wasn't as eloquent as Hongjun, he could only add, "Me too."

"Senior River God's brilliance illuminates our path forward."

"The world was originally in chaos. Because of your appearance, Senior, all realms have been stabilized. It is truly our honor to have the chance to serve you," Ancestral Dragon and Qiankun Ancestor said one after another.

"..."

Luohu.

Seriously, guys? Are you all this good at flattery?

Doesn't that make me look insincere? Not even flattering them?

No, Luohu is determined. After he goes back, he'll study how to flatter people properly.

Yes, the Novel Collection!

He remembered that in various novels, people always flattered others. When he gets back, he'll study and learn from them.

Even if it's just flattery, Luohu will absolutely not be outdone!

"Hongjun, how are your preparations with the Heavenly Dao coming along?" Tang Xuan asked Hongjun, speaking slowly.

"Senior, the Heavenly Dao's deductions and improvements are almost complete. In about ten thousand years, we can initiate the first phase of the 'All Beings Create' plan," Hongjun replied quickly, understanding Tang Xuan's intention.

"Ten thousand years..."

Tang Xuan nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Then, ten thousand years from now, we will clear out the Gate of Taboo. I want all the rats hiding in the gutters of the Primordial Continent to surface then."

One cannot tolerate others sleeping soundly beside their own bed.

If he lacked strength, it would be one thing. But with strength, why would Tang Xuan wait?

Ten thousand years is enough time for him to break through to Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Do you like hiding? Do you like making moves behind my back? Then I'll make you all appear in the open!

It's time... to flip the table!!!

"Understood, Senior's command."

Hongjun's spirit surged. The other three also felt a jolt and bowed in unison.

"Buzz!!!"

Tang Xuan reached out and grabbed the Chaos Bead, taking it into his hand. After putting away the Chaos Bead, Tang Xuan's figure gradually dissipated.

"We respectfully see off our Senior."

"We respectfully see off our Senior."

The four spoke in unison. After exchanging glances, they departed one after another.

An imperceptible roar suddenly erupted. The Eye of the Heavenly Dao looked towards the Three Immortal Islands. In an instant, dark clouds gathered, and divine purple lightning converged. Countless bolts of divine lightning struck down, directly obliterating the Three Immortal Islands.

The Three Immortal Islands?

In the Primordial Era, there were no longer Three Immortal Islands!

Deep within the East Sea.

Tang Xuan's figure reappeared.

Without rushing to take out the Chaos Bead, Tang Xuan first reviewed the events that had transpired on the Three Immortal Islands.

"No traces of Pangu were found."

"However, given that the Three Immortal Islands were completely contaminated and there was a Gate of Taboo, Pangu's connection to the Gate of Taboo is likely extremely close."

"If we assume that Pangu did not perish, or that Pangu left behind some contingency, what would be his contingency for resurrection, revival, or recovery?"

"The Witch Clan? The Three Pure Ones?"

With his eyes narrowed, a multitude of thoughts flashed through Tang Xuan's mind. He let out a light chuckle and dismissed them all.

No rush.

The longer I drag this out, the more the advantage will shift to my side. After all, the difficult part of accumulating Wish Origin is in the early stages. Once I get past that, it'll snowball.

As long as my strength is sufficient, I'll naturally be able to suppress any schemes, tricks, or insignificant individuals with ease.

He flipped his palm, and the Chaos Bead appeared in Tang Xuan's hand. He immersed his consciousness into the Chaos Bead, and before his eyes unfolded an endless expanse of chaos.

The Three Thousand Great Daos flickered in and out of existence, along with myriad creations rising and falling, evolving. Inside it was like a miniature chaos was evolving.

Even without its power fully unleashed, one could feel the world-suppressing, time-bending might contained within this bead.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier Chaos Supreme Treasure, on par with the Jade Plate of Creation, the Sky-Opening Axe, and the Thirty-Six-Petaled Green Lotus of Creation!

And it's the only top-tier Chaos Supreme Treasure in the current Primordial Era that remains undamaged!

"It's time to break through to the Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal realm."

A flicker of fervor appeared in his eyes. Taking a deep breath, Tang Xuan waved his hand, integrating the Chaos Bead into his body. The authority of the River of Myriad Treasures rapidly refined the Chaos Bead.

With everything in place, Tang Xuan closed his eyes and began his breakthrough.

Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal!

Once he broke through, combined with his status, Tang Xuan would truly be fearless of anyone!

And his plans could proceed without any further obstacles, all of them!

Breakthrough, commence!

BOOM!!!

The Primordial Era does not count years; ten thousand years pass in the blink of an eye.

In the boundless chaos, Tang Xuan sat cross-legged, illusory river shadows crisscrossing and coiling around him.

As Tang Xuan's breath rhythmically flowed in and out, each river merged into the chaos.

Divine prohibitions evolved, runes illuminated, like the profoundest of profundities, the most wondrous of wonders, the womb of all creation.

Gradually, Tang Xuan's aura became increasingly obscure, unfathomably deep. In the unseen depths, the entire chaos seemed to tremble and roar with Tang Xuan's exhalations.

Boundless chaotic energy converged, and Tang Xuan abruptly opened his eyes.

In an instant, the entire chaos shuddered.

Innumerable origins rapidly condensed, and a mystical, ethereal Dao Fruit, radiating an indescribable, faint dao light, began to take shape.

As the Dao Fruit merged into Tang Xuan's body, the entire chaos let out a thunderous roar.

"BOOM!!!"

Ultimate sublimation!

Infinite ascension!

In that moment, heavenly flowers rained down, golden lotuses sprang from the earth, radiant light blazed, purple qi soared, auspicious clouds billowed, dao rhythms descended, divine laws overflowed, dao sounds echoed, immortal music swelled, and infinite phenomena erupted instantaneously.

It was not condensed from Wish Origin, but naturally born, resonating with the Great Dao!

"The realm of Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal... achieved!!!"

Using the Chaos Bead as the core, gathering the endless rivers of his body as tributaries, supporting himself, proving himself through strength.

Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal?

Breakthrough!

After traversing the endless eons of the Primordial plane, Tang Xuan had finally achieved the Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal realm at the end of the Dragon-Han Tribulation!

"With my status and this Dao Fruit, even though I've just achieved Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, I can be considered invincible in this realm."

"Let alone the first heaven of Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, even the ninth heaven, or even the peak of Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, I can suppress them. Even the Hunyuan Luosheng Golden Immortal realm, I can still contend with!"

Tang Xuan's eyes shone as he murmured to himself.

Although fighting across realms was a common trope in fantasy novels, it was virtually impossible in the immortal dao world. However, for Tang Xuan, it was a reality.

The River of Myriad Laws gathered all laws, the River of Myriad Treasures collected all treasures, and all spirit treasures, including the Chaos Bead, poured their origins into bolstering Tang Xuan himself. The terrifying extent of his power was beyond words.

"The Great Dao of Water has already been mastered. Whether I want to continue cultivating or ascend to the River of Time, I must master all Three Thousand Great Daos."

"Moreover, I need to create a Dao that is most suitable for myself. This is what I will do next."

Tang Xuan thought to himself.

Just as Hongjun established the Immortal Dao, Luohu cultivated the Demonic Path, and Qiankun and Ancestral Dragon delved into the Dao of Chaos, Tang Xuan, similarly, needed his own Dao!

He glanced at the space within the Chaos Bead. Tang Xuan pointed a finger, imprinting his body's mark onto the chaos, transforming it into a river that flowed endlessly through the chaos, its source and end unknown.

With his physical body spread throughout the Primordial Continent and his imprint within the Chaos Bead, as long as his physical body and imprint remained, Tang Xuan would be immortal and indestructible!

"It's time to make the Gate of Taboo vanish from the Primordial Continent."

Tang Xuan stood up, his gaze sharp.

Provoke me? Reach out your claws at me? Then I'll chop off all your claws. You don't think I'll need to be cautious or search for those who possess the Gate of Taboo, do you?

No, I don't need to. I'll just flip the table!
