Hongjun's Ambition! The Myriad Heavens Simulator's Cooldown Is Over! [Please Bookmark and Send Flowers]
On the other side of Buzhou Mountain, Daoist Tongtian's cave dwelling.
Thousands of years passed, and Daoist Tongtian still remained in the exact spot where he had entered the Myriad Worlds Simulator back then.
Just as he told Laozi and Yuanshi at the time, he truly built a Dao field right here.
With his realm and strength as a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, conjuring up some mountains and rivers and then setting up a formation was practically effortless for him.
Therefore, his Dao field looked quite decent nowadays.
However, Daoist Tongtian temporarily chose to give up on the matter of searching for the Innate Supreme Treasure.
He genuinely could not find it, as this Innate Supreme Treasure was far too crafty!
Tongtian stayed behind simply to wait for a rabbit by a tree stump, as he certainly had not forgotten that after the last assessment ended, the prompt mentioned there would be another one.
It was only ten thousand years of time, and he could afford to wait!
During the next assessment, he would definitely capture this Innate Supreme Treasure!
Over these past few thousand years, Tongtian either strolled around to see if he could bump into the Innate Supreme Treasure coming out for fresh air.
Or he casually enlightened some ignorant postnatal beings just to amuse himself, cultivating casually in his leisure time, and living quite a pleasant life.
During his cultivation, however, Daoist Tongtian also discovered a problem.
That was, the Sword Soul Primordial Spirit method created in the God's Tomb World could not be practiced by him, its very creator!
This made Tongtian furious; it simply defied all reason!
Consequently, refusing to take this lying down, Daoist Tongtian created yet another Sword Soul Primordial Spirit technique—a Primordial Spirit method that could be practiced within the Primordial World!
By sheer coincidence, the train of thought behind his new Sword Soul Primordial Spirit method was almost identical to Shen Lang's.
Not only did it transform the Primordial Spirit into a sword shape, but it also stacked Primordial Spirits within the sword soul primordial spirit!
By now, Tongtian had actually condensed and stacked five sword soul primordial spirits, having even one more than Shen Lang!
After all, this was a technique he created himself, so he naturally had to be somewhat more proficient at it.
Just as Daoist Tongtian condensed the five sword soul primordial spirits, he successfully advanced to the realm of the peak Great Principle Golden Immortal, and his sword soul transformed into a Grand Unity Sword Seed!
If it were placed in the past, Tongtian would have been incomparably excited, but now it was just so-so.
A Peak Great Principle Golden Immortal without an Innate Supreme Treasure was meaningless!
Only by acquiring this Innate Supreme Treasure in the next assessment would it be called perfection!
Shen Lang was cultivating, Nuwa was waiting, and Tongtian was waiting; all was well with each of them.
Yet other places in the Primordial World were far from calm.
Under Di Jun and Tai Yi's unremitting efforts, great demon kings like Bai Ze, Ji Meng, Shang Yang, and Jiu Ying all submitted to the Demon Court.
The ten great demon kings, Demon Master Kun Peng, coupled with the twin emperors Di Jun and Tai Yi, meant the Demon Court had grown to a considerable scale.
In terms of high-end battle power, the Demon Court was already no weaker than the Twelve Ancestral Witches!
This gave the Demon Court a certain level of confidence, and they organized multiple counterattacks against the Witch Race's ferocious swallowing and slaughter.
Consequently, the warfare between them grew increasingly intense, and calamity qi spread across heaven and earth.
At this moment, inside a certain Daoist temple on a mountain called Jade Capital Mountain, a certain gray-robed Daoist suddenly opened his eyes... Seeking flowers and evaluation tickets...
Hongjun's Ambition! The Myriad Worlds Simulator Cooldown Reached! [Seeking Collection and Flowers]
The gray-robed Daoist sat upright on a cattail futon, the Jade Disk of Creation hovering above his head while three thousand laws rippled around his entire body.
He was in Jade Capital Mountain, yet he seemed to be in another dimension, his whole person seemingly merging with the three thousand laws and becoming one with heaven and earth.
When he opened his eyes, a starry sky rotated within them, yin and yang alternated, and creation flowed endlessly.
This gray-robed Daoist was naturally the future master of the Primordial World, Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
Ever since the end of the Dao-Devil War, Hongjun had practically never left Jade Capital Mountain, bitterly cultivating in seclusion right up to the present.
The Three Clans War and the slaying of Luo Hou had earned him a massive amount of great merit.
Great merit coupled with the Jade Disk of Creation—a fragmented Chaos Supreme Treasure bearing three thousand laws—allowed him to step almost into the realm of Primal Grand Unity.
Only a sliver remains.
It is a pity that because my Three Corpses Method is affected by Heavenly Dao, it still falls slightly short, otherwise this seat should have long since become a Primal Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Hongjun sighed softly, his rosy, lustful face showing neither joy nor sorrow.
The path of laws was harder than ascending to heaven.
As early as when the Three Clans pursued attaining the Dao through karmic luck, Hongjun had already created the astonishing Three Corpses Method, stepping into the realm of the peak Primal Golden Immortal.
This path was capable of attaining the Dao, but Hongjun had long since cast this path aside.
Slashing the three corpses had flaws and must not be practiced!
Even if one ultimately attained the Dao of Hunyuan Grand Luo, one would still be constrained by the Heavenly, Earthly, and Human Daos, existing in reliance upon the Primordial World.
Hongjun rose by the grace of Heavenly Dao, and at that time he would inevitably be restricted by Heavenly Dao.
Under the influence of Heavenly Dao, it could be said that what this method of attaining the Dao by slashing the three corpses ultimately proved was a fake Primal Grand Unity Golden Immortal!
A true Primal Grand Unity Golden Immortal ought to transcend the world, heaven, and earth to endure eternally, remaining undecaying even if heaven and earth perished.
However, attaining the Dao by slashing the three corpses could not do this; this method could only ultimately entrust the spirit to Heavenly Dao in order to attain the Dao!
Entrusting the spirit to Heavenly Dao was equivalent to handing one's life over into the hands of Heavenly Dao.
If Heavenly Dao were destroyed, he would also perish along with it!
If the Primordial World perished, he would likewise perish, failing to truly transcend heaven and earth!
Hongjun had plotted extensively; by now his greatest adversary Luo Hou was dead, and the great supernatural beings of his same era had also been tricked by him to the last man.
In the present Primordial Land, he was the undisputed number one powerhouse, the one closest to a Primal Grand Unity Golden Immortal!
Would he be willing to become a fake Primal Grand Unity Golden Immortal?
Would he be resigned to suffering constraints from Heavenly Dao henceforth?
Of course not!
Therefore, Hongjun had long since abandoned the Three Corpses Method and was instead forcibly breaking through the Dao.
He wanted to attain the Dao through himself, attaining the Dao via the three thousand laws, and become a true Primal Grand Unity Golden Immortal!
Furthermore, by means of this he would wield the Heavenly, Earthly, and Human Daos, becoming the Heaven and Earth Will himself!
To put it in more colloquial terms—
Hongjun simply wanted to turn the Primordial World, which Great God Pangu had split open with his life, into his own back garden!
Such a grand scheme was utterly unprecedented.
And now, he was about to take the first step, needing only to first advance to Primal Grand Unity Golden Immortal before he could proceed to the next step!
Heavenly Dao? Simply a stepping stone for this seat!
The corners of Hongjun's mouth curled up slightly as his gaze overlooked the Primordial Land.
Within his field of vision, heaven and earth were returning to their origin, and wisps of calamity qi were spreading everywhere.
Especially for the Witch Race and the Demon Race, the calamity qi of the two clans was all the more dense, and they were likewise the source of the calamity qi.
When the time comes, I shall still have to rely on your two clans.
Calamity qi is newly born, Heavenly Dao is benighted, and an opportune moment has arrived—it is time for this seat to break through the Dao into Hunyuan!
As he pondered, Daoist Hongjun closed his eyes once more.
The three thousand laws fell down from the Jade Disk of Creation, and the laws lay almost clearly before him for comprehension.
At the same time, the two Innate Supreme Treasures, the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner, also manifested and flickered around him, isolating the Heaven and Earth Will on his behalf.
Aside from these two Innate Supreme Treasures, there were also the Four Immortal Slaying Swords and the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, which similarly concealed his aura.
For no other reason than that Heavenly Dao was equally unwilling to see the spokesperson it had fostered transcend its control!
Once Heavenly Dao learned that its own spokesperson intended to rebel, he, Hongjun, would likewise become an outcast discarded and slain by Heavenly Dao!
To a certain extent, Hongjun and Shen Lang's situations were actually quite similar.
It was just that one side was in the open and stronger, while the other was in the shadows and weaker!
Five thousand years later—
Buzhou Mountain, the Innate Spirit Array, the Three Lights Deep Water Pool.
Within the pool water, the Green Lotus of Creation that had always been present was now gone.
Only a cyan lotus seed the size of a fist hovered upon the surface of the water, its aura having nearly returned to the most primordial state.
It was just like an ordinary lotus seed, with only wisps of lingering Chaos Qi.
This was the Chaos Qi carried along from Chaos when the Chaos Green Lotus shattered back then and the lotus seed fell into the Primordial World.
Apart from the Chaos Qi, the cyan lotus seed no longer possessed any spiritual qi or spiritual power fluctuations.
Clearly, Shen Lang within the lotus seed had completely sucked dry all the energy that the Green Lotus of Creation had accumulated over countless years.
