Primordial Wilderness: Starting by Downloading Pangu's Cultivation

But after the battle with the Heavenly Dao and Ancestor Hongjun, he naturally understood that if he wanted to continue in peace, it was no longer possible.

The Heavenly Dao would certainly not allow him to grow, after all, the threat he posed to it was far too great.

Right!

First, refine the Taiji Diagram.

Qing Tian waved his hand, and the Innate Supreme Treasure Taiji Diagram, obtained from Ancestor Hongjun, appeared in the void.

Boom!

The moment the Taiji Diagram emerged in the void, it released a powerful pressure that tore apart all surrounding space.

"Suppress!"

"..."

Qing Tian uttered a single word, and the trembling Taiji Diagram was instantly subdued.

"This treasure..." Ancestor Qiankun was no fool; from this banner, he sensed an immensely powerful spiritual treasure aura, a hundred times stronger than his own Universe Diagram.

His Companion Spiritual Treasure, the Universe Diagram, was a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

And something a hundred times more powerful than that could only be an Innate Supreme Treasure.

Could it be?

Was this an Innate Supreme Treasure?

Boom!

In an instant, a powerful surge of will erupted from Qing Tian's body and flooded into the Taiji Diagram.

"Hiss!"

"What formidable willpower!"

"..."

Ancestor Qiankun, standing nearby, witnessed this scene, and especially felt that overwhelming will—his entire body trembled.

It was too strong; Qing Tian's willpower must have already condensed into crystal.

Will crystallized into crystal—this was the prelude to attaining the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin.

Rumble!!

Under the crushing weight of Qing Tian's immense will, the Taiji Diagram naturally refused to yield, especially with the remnants of Ancestor Hongjun's will still within it.

Bang!

In an instant, two powerful wills clashed in the void.

"Hmph, a mere remnant of will dares to resist before me? Truly ignorant of life and death."

Qing Tian snorted coldly, and his will surged forth once more.

Boom!

It swept across heaven and earth with an unstoppable force, and under this renewed onslaught, the lingering will of Ancestor Hongjun within the Taiji Diagram dissipated entirely.

At the same time, in a cave somewhere on the Wild Continent, Ancestor Hongjun's eyes turned bloodshot, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Qing Tian, I will never forgive you." Ancestor Hongjun had a deep connection with the Taiji Diagram, and when Qing Tian dispersed his will within it, he naturally suffered backlash.

"Hmph, with strength like yours, you still think of challenging Qing Tian? Even the Lord of Gods is beyond your reach."

A cold, merciless voice echoed through the cave.

Hearing this voice, Ancestor Hongjun looked up toward the ceiling of the cave, where a massive eye covered in cracks appeared.

The Heavenly Dao's Eye.

When it had led Ancestor Hongjun away from Buzhou Mountain, it too had suffered severe damage from Qing Tian's fierce assault.

"Dao of Heaven, what do you mean by that? I have already refined part of the Jade Butterfly of Creation, and my cultivation has reached the First Heaven of Quasi-Saint. Are you saying I can't even defeat Ancestor Dragon and the others?"

Ancestor Hongjun was clearly angered by the Heavenly Dao's Eye's words. Losing to Qing Tian was one thing, but if he couldn't even beat Ancestor Dragon, that would be utterly humiliating.

"Hmph, it's not that I, the Heavenly Dao, want to discourage you, but the Wild Continent is now teeming with powerful beings. All these creatures are under the control of the Great Dao, and even I cannot fully dominate them. With your current strength, you are far from enough."

The Heavenly Dao's Eye looked at the furious Ancestor Hongjun. Why had it chosen him as its vessel in the first place?

Unfortunately, it could no longer choose another, because the Jade Butterfly of Creation had already been refined by Ancestor Hongjun. From now on, only he could bear the descent of the Heavenly Dao.

At the same time, a strange light flickered in the Heavenly Dao's Eye, unreadable to anyone.

Ancestor Hongjun said nothing more and quickly resumed refining the remaining pieces of the Jade Butterfly of Creation.

"I wonder where Fellow Daoist Qing Tian intends to go next?" Ancestor Qiankun suddenly asked Qing Tian.

"Where to?"

Qing Tian thought for a moment. He had originally planned to head toward the starry sky, but then he remembered his promise to that girl, Meng Wu—that after the matter at Buzhou Mountain was settled, he would go find her.

"I plan to go to Undying Mountain," Qing Tian replied.

When Ancestor Qiankun heard where Qing Tian was headed, he said, "Undying Mountain is the Phoenix Ancestral Land. Be extra careful on your way, Daoist friend."

"Then I hope we meet again by fate, Daoist Qiankun." Qing Tian said nothing more, and vanished swiftly from Buzhou Mountain, speeding toward the Phoenix Ancestral Land.

Meanwhile.

Three days later.

Phoenix Ancestral Land, Undying Volcano.

"Phoenix Ancestor, the Ancestor Dragon's Eldest Son has come seeking to wed my Meng'er! I beg the Phoenix Ancestor to make a just ruling!" A flame-haired elder stood bowed outside a volcanic crater.

"The Eastern Sea? Ancestor Dragon?"

"That old thing has finally woken up?"

"But the Dragon Clan seeking a marriage—the Ancestor Dragon's Eldest Son matched with your daughter—isn't that a good thing? Why are you so troubled?"

A soft, seductive female voice slowly drifted out from within the crater.

"Meng'er traveled abroad recently and met a Primordial Chaos realm expert, gaining many opportunities."

"She is now a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. Given time, she will surely become a Primordial Chaos realm expert, so..."

The Phoenix Clan Elder's face was full of distress.

The Phoenix Clan was not as strong as the Dragon Clan—at least, they did not have as many peak experts.

A destined Primordial Chaos realm expert, married off to the Dragon Clan?

No Phoenix Clan high elder could accept this, and besides, Meng Wu was his own flesh and blood!

"Then spread the news. We'll stall the Dragon Clan for now and see how that person reacts."

"If he is willing to stand against the entire Dragon Clan for a woman of our Phoenix Clan, I will bless their union."

The Phoenix Ancestor's voice carried a bone-deep seductiveness.

But no one dared to refute the Phoenix Ancestor's words. As the founding ancestor of the Phoenix Clan, could her strength possibly be low?

As time passed, Qing Tian stopped to rest only when he was just one day's journey from Undying Mountain.

Then he set off again, heading for Undying Mountain.

But as he traveled, Qing Tian noticed a problem: the closer he got to Undying Mountain, the more Primordial Wilderness creatures he encountered.

When he was still half a day from Undying Mountain, he could spot, from a hundred li away, either a single creature or groups of them.

And the direction they were all heading was precisely Undying Mountain.

This made the unease in Qing Tian's heart grow ever stronger.

He quickened his pace, rushing toward Undying Mountain at full speed.

Only when he was still one day away from Undying Mountain did Qing Tian finally understand what was going on.

During this journey to Undying Mountain, he had already learned the full story from the conversations of those Primordial Wilderness creatures.

"Hmph! The Dragon Clan? I'd like to see what abilities you have, daring to demand Meng Wu marry you!"

At the same time, inside a cave dwelling on Undying Mountain.

Meng Wu looked at the two guards outside her cave, and a trace of despair rose in her heart.

As for marrying the Dragon Clan Great Elder's Eldest Son, Meng Wu naturally had no desire to do so.
