The three lectures at Zixiao Palace had ended, and Hongjun had merged with the Heavenly Dao.
The various Great Powers returned to the Primordial World with their respective gains.
The next ten thousand years ushered in the quietest period the Primordial World had ever seen.
The various Great Powers stayed in their respective Dao Fields, either entering seclusion to comprehend the Heavenly Dao or refining spiritual treasures.
After Nuwa and Fuxi returned to their Dao Field, they told Qingxuan what had happened at Zixiao Palace.
Hongjun has merged with the Dao, and the Witch-Demon Tribulation has begun to unfold.
I've already reached the perfected Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm. With my various methods, even an ordinary Grand Unity Golden Immortal can't do anything to me.
It's time to go out and take a look at this Primordial World.
"Master, I'm planning to go out and travel for a while, seeking a breakthrough."
Qingxuan acted as soon as the thought occurred to him and immediately spoke to Nuwa.
After arriving in the Primordial World, he had become Jianmu. After taking human form, he had followed Nuwa to her Dao Field, and he still hadn't properly seen the Primordial World.
Hearing that Qingxuan wanted to travel, Nuwa was slightly worried.
After all, although Qingxuan cultivated quickly, the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm was still somewhat low.
But Nuwa couldn't keep Qingxuan from going out forever. After all, Qingxuan's special nature destined him never to be ordinary.
Nuwa had always understood this.
After thinking for a while, Nuwa took out the Rivers and Mountains Painting she had just obtained and handed it to Qingxuan.
"This is the Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure bestowed by the Dao Ancestor, the Rivers and Mountains Painting. It can trap people and collect objects. Keep it with you. If you encounter a powerful enemy, you can trap them inside, or hide inside yourself."
Thinking that this still wasn't safe enough, Nuwa casually plucked several strands of her hair.
The strands of hair fell into Nuwa's hand, shining with light as an aura of creation spread across them.
"Keep these strands of hair close to your body. They carry my aura, and if you encounter danger, they can unleash a full-power attack from a Primordial Origin Golden Immortal."
Seeing how concerned Nuwa looked, Qingxuan felt touched.
Qingxuan put the items away.
Then he suddenly stepped forward and pulled Nuwa into his arms.
Nuwa's body stiffened violently. She instinctively wanted to resist, but she was afraid of hurting Qingxuan.
Qingxuan buried his head beside Nuwa's neck, his voice slightly muffled.
"Thank you, Master. Don't worry, Master. I'll definitely return safely."
No one has ever cared about me like this before!
Don't worry. With me here, I definitely won't let you become the Heavenly Dao's puppet.
I'll definitely protect Master.
Listening to Qingxuan's inner voice, Nuwa gradually relaxed and slowly raised her arms to return his embrace.
Her voice was filled with deep concern and tenderness.
"Come back safely. I... I'll wait for you in the Dao Field."
After saying this, Nuwa's face flushed crimson, and she instantly vanished before Qingxuan.
A smile appeared on Qingxuan's face. He then transformed into a streak of light and left the Dao Field.
After Qingxuan left, Nuwa appeared in the same place again. She gazed blankly in the direction he had gone.
Fuxi appeared beside Nuwa at some point.
"Little Sister, this brother-in-law of ours is pretty good. I approve."
Nuwa came back to herself and glared at Fuxi with a flushed face.
Fuxi laughed heartily, then said seriously,
"Qingxuan's special nature means he's destined to stir up the storms of the Primordial World. All we can do is avoid holding him back."
Nuwa nodded. She naturally understood.
She would also do everything within her power to protect Qingxuan.
After leaving the Dao Field, Qingxuan felt that the world was vast.
"Where should I go first?"
Qingxuan stood atop the clouds and thought for a while before deciding to go to Buzhou Mountain.
After all, having come to the Primordial World, he definitely had to visit Buzhou Mountain.
The Witch-Demon Tribulation had already begun. If he didn't go now, once Gong Gong knocked down Buzhou Mountain, he wouldn't be able to visit even if he wanted to.
Having made up his mind, Qingxuan wasn't in a hurry. He rode the clouds slowly toward Buzhou Mountain.
A mountain might seem close, but the journey could wear out a horse.
Even though Nuwa's Dao Field was not far from Buzhou Mountain, it still took Qingxuan a thousand years to arrive.
Buzhou Mountain was the main base of the Witch Race, and traces of the Witches' lives could be seen everywhere.
Qingxuan didn't want to have anything to do with the Witch Race for now. After all, apart from Houtu, most of the other Witches were stubborn and one-track-minded.
Qingxuan possessed the concealment technique granted by the system. As long as he didn't want them to, these Witches naturally couldn't discover him.
Without disturbing the Witch Race, Qingxuan arrived at the foot of Buzhou Mountain.
Buzhou Mountain had been transformed from Pangu's spine. As the heavenly pillar supporting Heaven and Earth, its magnificence could no longer be described in words.
Pangu's pressure still remained on Buzhou Mountain. The higher one climbed, the greater the pressure became, making it an excellent place to temper the physical body.
Qingxuan possessed Great God Pangu's Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique. He had already perfected the fourth revolution and was about to enter the fifth.
For ten thousand years, Qingxuan endured Pangu's pressure and advanced step by step toward the summit of Buzhou Mountain.
Throughout this process, Qingxuan's physical body was constantly growing stronger. The bottleneck of the fifth revolution had already begun to loosen, and he needed only an opportunity to successfully enter the fifth revolution and achieve the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.
After an unknown amount of time, Qingxuan finally reached the summit of Buzhou Mountain after exhausting all his strength.
Just as Qingxuan reached the summit, he suddenly sensed an opportunity that belonged to him.
Following the guidance, Qingxuan arrived before a great formation.
Before Qingxuan could think about how to break the formation, it suddenly twisted. A tremendous suction force instantly swept him inside.
The instant Qingxuan regained his senses, he summoned the Jianmu Divine Spear and held it horizontally before him, focusing his attention as he prepared for danger.
This seemed to be an independent minor world, resembling the primordial chaos.
"Hmm, an interesting junior."
A voice suddenly rang out, seeming to come from everywhere at once.
"May I ask which senior is here? This junior unintentionally intruded into Senior's Dao Field. I hope Senior will forgive me."
Qingxuan spoke politely, placing himself in the position of a junior.
After all, being able to pull him into the formation without giving him even a chance to react was certainly not something an ordinary Great Power could do.
The moment Qingxuan finished speaking, a phantom suddenly appeared before him.
The phantom appeared without the slightest sound, as if he had been standing there all along.
The phantom's hair hung loose, and his upper body was bare. His sturdy muscles were filled with boundless strength.
Qingxuan took only one glance before hurriedly looking away.
With that single glance, Qingxuan felt as though he was about to become one with the Dao. It was the feeling of facing the Great Dao, something that made it impossible to look directly at him.
"I am the Primordial Heavenly King, of the Pangu Clan. You, junior, cultivate my technique, yet you do not recognize me."
Primordial Heavenly King? Pangu Clan? Great God Pangu?
Qingxuan's pupils contracted sharply.
He hurriedly put away the Jianmu Divine Spear and bowed respectfully to the phantom once more.
"This junior is Qingxuan. Greetings, Great God Pangu."
"This junior unintentionally obtained Great God Pangu's inheritance. I hope Great God Pangu will forgive me."
The Pangu phantom smiled indifferently.
"This is your destiny. I am merely a wisp of phantom that is about to dissipate. I only awakened after sensing the aura of the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique."
"Meeting an inheritor just before dissipating can also be considered destiny. I shall grant you an opportunity. Watch carefully and learn well."
After the phantom finished speaking, he pointed a finger. A streak of spiritual light entered Qingxuan's Sea of Consciousness.
Qingxuan froze in place in an instant, his Primordial Spirit seemingly traveling back to the moment Heaven and Earth were opened.
He saw a giant wielding a massive axe, hacking away repeatedly in the darkness of the primordial chaos.
Streaks of axe light gradually split open the primordial chaos.
Countless figures radiating powerful auras slowly emerged. They wanted to stop the giant, but they were all slain by the massive axe in his hands.
Pangu sensed something and glanced toward where Qingxuan was.
Then the axe in his hand began to swing with rhythm. Every movement contained a certain aspect of the Great Dao.
