Feng Xi felt that this was the happiest moment since he had transmigrated.

One golden finger after another was laid out before him, waiting for him to choose... It was a little regrettable that he could only pick one.

"Can I inspect them one by one?"

Shamelessly, he fought for the greatest possible benefit within the rules.

"Of course." Great Sage Fuxi smiled faintly. "They're nothing more than toys, after all. I can create tens of millions with a wave of my hand... Take your time and carefully choose the one you want most."

"You can create tens of millions with a wave of your hand?" Feng Xi was envious. He would never be able to see through the realm of a mighty figure.

Suddenly, a doubt rose in his heart. "If that's the case, why didn't the great Ancestor Witches give every member of the Witch Clan one as standard equipment?"

"The various Ancestor Witches possess earth-shaking power. They are the most supreme Great Luo, capable of bringing all things into being or annihilating them, and creating countless wonders..."

As Feng Xi spoke, more associations came to him. "Even ordinary cultivation resources can be produced infinitely by them, allowing every soldier to become as powerful as possible in the shortest time..."

"Ha!" Fuxi sneered, his voice full of amusement. "What status do you Lesser Witches have? And what status do the Ancestor Witches have?"

"Have them serve as your basic laborers, supporting and raising you so that you can grow stronger?"

"The fact that they can give you a fair platform to improve yourselves is already quite good... And you still want something for nothing?"

Feng Xi let out two dry laughs.

"Besides, if the Witch Clan dares to do that, the Demon Clan can take similar action." Fuxi scoffed. "Believe me, when things are pushed to the end and the two sides compete by numbers, the one that suffers will definitely not be the Demon Clan."

"These are the rules of the game... The war between the Witches and Demons isn't merely about showing off their strength and fighting for supremacy over Heaven and Earth." Fuxi spoke indifferently. "The key lies in what is revealed and demonstrated behind this struggle for supremacy..."

"Whose system is more advanced? Whose system better fits the tide of the Human Dao? Who can truly lead the times?"

"This is what both sides must prove... Prove it to whom? To the Great Luo of this entire Primordial World!"

"Only those who perform outstandingly will receive more favor, prompting the Great Luo to add more stakes and place further bets."

"When two schools of thought collide, cheating may let you flaunt your strength for a moment, but in reality, it damages the greater situation."

"On the stage of this era, you countless ordinary members of the Witch Clan aren't the main fighting force, yet you bear a responsibility more important than that of the main force... The success or failure of the Human Race rests on your shoulders, not those of the Ancestor Witches!"

"After all, if your performance is too poor and you lose, the Human Race's status as the protagonist will be shaken... But what does that have to do with the Ancestor Witches?"

"Peak powerhouses possess power of their own, with all might gathered into one body. Can't they simply change their appearance and switch sides?"

Feng Xi fell silent.

Those who had attained the Great Luo Dao were no longer beings bound by mere bloodlines.

To them, refreshing their racial template and changing everything from their origin to their flesh and soul would not be difficult.

That magnificent realm had already broken free of the restraints of their clans... The only things capable of earning their recognition were spirit and ideology!

Those who followed different paths could not work together!

That saying had been demonstrated to perfection.

"The Ancestor Witches and Great Witches, these beings at the Great Luo level, all have a way out."

"Only you are pawns that have crossed the river. You cannot retreat... And you must bloom with the most dazzling brilliance during the war!"

"How many sacrifices are needed to forge an immortal monument?" Great Sage Fuxi spoke meaningfully. "If you want the status of the Protagonist of Heaven and Earth, then there can be no opportunism whatsoever during the struggle..."

"You must use the most upright edge to crush every obstacle on the road ahead, making your enemies lose with complete conviction and despair, unable to muster even the slightest will to resist."

"The Human Race is like this, and so is the Demon Clan."

"That is why there are some things the Ancestor Witches will not do publicly, and the higher-ups of the Demon Clan will not do either."

"Of course." Fuxi suddenly smiled and changed the subject. "They won't do it publicly, but what they do behind the scenes... Well, that's hard to say."

Feng Xi was stunned. Then he looked at those "golden fingers" and instantly understood.

If everyone were honest and well-behaved, how could Emperor Xi have fished up so many things here?

"From the stage to behind the scenes, one living being after another transmigrated through time by accident... Who could know which Great Luo's pawn they all were?"

Fuxi sighed softly. "Even someone like me, who is proficient in the arts of divination and heavenly secrets, is completely baffled."

"Huh?" Feng Xi blinked. "You can't tell?"

"Some things are so distinctive... With the Great Dao contained within them, it shouldn't be difficult for you to determine which divine being they're connected to, should it?"

He separately picked out dozens of golden lotuses, along with hundreds and thousands of relics glowing with golden light. After briefly examining the Dao Charm within them, an aura of Nirvana and purity circulated, seeming to make the answer self-evident.

"You naive child... Don't you know there's a word in this world called counterfeit?" Fuxi sighed deeply. "Other Great Luo could study the Buddhist Sect's divine abilities, use those principles to manufacture products, and dump the blame on the Buddhist Sect. Wouldn't that settle everything?"

"A Great Luo has mastered all three thousand Great Daos and holds them in their heart... Even if each has their specialty, what is the difficulty in creating things that can assist someone in reaching the peak of the Supreme Unity realm?"

"Those proficient in this ability can even make the false indistinguishable from the true... Apart from Jieyin and Zhunti of the Buddhist Sect, the two source-stream beings, personally examining them, almost no one else could tell whether they were real or fake."

"But then there would be no evidence either way—if I went to those two and asked them to appraise them... Believe me, they would definitely say that someone else had framed them!"

"Regardless of whether they really have pawns among them—they would never admit it!"

"A thief crying 'Stop thief' isn't impossible."

Feng Xi felt that his horizons had been broadened.

At the same time, several deeply disrespectful thoughts rose in his heart.

I feel that some divine beings being vilified probably isn't entirely baseless, is it?

But the moment this thought arose, Feng Xi conscientiously snuffed it out and pretended it had never existed.

At the same time, he shifted all his attention to his curiosity about these golden fingers.

At the first opportunity, Feng Xi reached toward the pile of chaos-colored beads and picked one up.

With a movement of his mind, he read the information contained within the bead.

As expected.

This was none other than the famous—

Chaos Bead!

The most hardworking, and also most miserable, labor model in all the transmigration legends!

Hardworking because, according to legend, it had carried transmigrators into the Age of Chaos at least eight or nine thousand times.

Everyone who had used it had praised it.

It was miserable because, in many cases, it had to use its fragile body to test the edge of the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe!

Feng Xi focused his mind on this "Chaos Bead," and an indescribable feeling rose in his heart.

He seemed to see the extremely small and the extremely vast intermingled, creation and destruction overlapping... The boundless, deep, and hazy chaos made both time and space fall into stillness.

Perhaps, as long as an immensely vast force struck it and shattered this chaotic state, allowing time and space to expand, separating creation from destruction, linking everything together through creation, and using earth, water, fire, and wind to evolve the myriad phenomena of the heavens, it could create a genuine, vast universe!

Recreating Pangu Creates Heaven and Earth!

After pondering briefly, he set down the bead in his hand, picked up another, and toyed with it.

Although the sensations were slightly different, they were largely the same.

After inspecting more than three hundred of them in succession, he found them all like this... Each concealed boundless potential, waiting only for a single strike to create everything.

By the end, Feng Xi was numb. "Wholesale and clearance sales? The legendary Chaos Bead really contains a chaos, a genuine embryonic multiverse, waiting for a successor to attain the Dao through strength?"

"The embryonic multiverse is naturally real." Fuxi was unconcerned. "But as for attaining the Dao... That depends on which Dao you're talking about."

"Becoming a stronger Supreme Unity is not difficult. But Great Luo... There's no hope."

"A multiverse has no basis for comparison with a Great Luo. At best, it is merely an extremely powerful Supreme Unity."

"Isn't controlling a multiverse powerful enough?" Feng Xi clicked his tongue.

"Cultivation at the Supreme Unity stage actually has no upper limit... Why?" Fuxi smiled. "Because Great Luo represents infinity!"

"So, at the Supreme Unity level, one can approach infinity without limit, and naturally there is no upper limit."

"Let alone controlling one multiverse—even a thousand or ten thousand... You could crush those of the same level, but if you encountered a flawless Great Luo, you would still be pressed to the ground and beaten." Fuxi smiled pleasantly. "Not to mention borrowing infinite power, just the suppression of authority and the reversal of cause and effect..."

"You're proud of the number of universes you opened and control, right? No matter. In the next moment, I'll reset your origin and rewrite your life... Then everything that belongs to you will belong to me!"

An administrator was invincible!

The only one who could defeat an administrator was a higher-level administrator!

"I don't recommend that you choose this Chaos Bead." Fuxi offered some advice. "After all, if you want to open the universe within it and leap into becoming a multiversal Supreme Unity, your own strength must at least have reached the threshold of Supreme Unity. Before then, all you can do is comprehend the bits and pieces of mystery revealed by the evolution of chaos within this bead."

"It will help your cultivation, but not by much."

"Oh." Feng Xi thought about it and felt that this made sense—the things from too far ahead were indeed rather unsuitable for his current Golden Immortal cultivation.

He obediently set down the Chaos Bead and fixed his gaze on the jade fragments.

These fragments also had quite a reputation.

—Creation Jade Disc Fragments!

The slightly awkward part was that, if one carefully pieced together the fragments piled here...

Forget one complete Creation Jade Disc—even a hundred could be assembled!

"The Creation Jade Disc records the three thousand Great Daos... Although this is a counterfeit and the knowledge within is somewhat incomplete, it is genuine and real." Fuxi explained. "This is something that can help you right now."

"As for the drawback..."
