At this moment.
Su Ming wished he could immediately charge beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens and tear the thief in Purple Firmament Palace to pieces!
Su Ming forcibly suppressed the emotions roiling within him.
He knew that anger could not solve anything.
[ Ding! The host comprehended the secrets of the Remnant Pangu True Spirit and obtained the purple entry: Sky-Opening Mark! ]
Hearing the system notification beside his ear, Su Ming's eyes lit up.
"Sky-Opening Mark..."
Su Ming carefully savored the ancient, unadorned mark deep within his soul. A soaring ambition surged in his heart.
He knew that the Three Pure Ones of later generations had been transformed from Father God's primordial spirit. They had likewise inherited part of the Sky-Opening Mark, which was why each could establish a sect and attain Sainthood.
But their marks were incomplete!
His own mark, however, was Father God's final will. It had combined the complete process of Sky Splitting with the bloody truth, condensing into... the most complete inheritance!
True Descendant of Pangu?
From today onward, he, Su Ming, was the only True Descendant of Pangu in the entire Primordial World Heaven and Earth!
As his cultivation rose in the future, he could continue comprehending deeper levels of the Great Dao from this mark. It was equivalent to carrying Great God Pangu with him as a teacher—and one who taught him personally!
This cheat was a little too ridiculous.
Su Ming slowly rose to his feet. The grief and rage he had felt upon learning the truth had now been perfectly restrained and buried deep within his soul.
His gaze was as calm as a stagnant pool, but beneath that dead water lay a volcano powerful enough to overturn the entire Primordial Wilderness!
He looked once more at the God Slaying Spear in his hand.
This Top-tier Innate Supreme Treasure that had once given him an immense headache now appeared completely clear in his eyes.
He could see the core inside the spear, formed from the interweaving of Luohu's resentment and the baleful aura of the Three Thousand Demon Gods.
"Compared to the polluted Heavenly Dao and Hongjun, your little tricks truly amount to nothing more than child's play."
Su Ming tightened his grip around the spear. The terrifying baleful aura—powerful enough to make even a Quasi-Saint lose control of his mind—surged madly into his body. Yet the instant it touched his primordial spirit, it was like snow meeting the blazing sun, instantly purified and erased by that supreme Sky-Opening Dao rhythm.
He was now completely immune to the baleful aura of the God Slaying Spear!
He could even use his own Sky-Opening Dao rhythm to refine this peerless weapon of slaughter in return!
"Hongjun... Heavenly Dao..."
He slowly uttered these four words. His voice was not loud, yet it caused faint ripples to spread across the surrounding Origin Ocean.
He raised his head. His gaze seemed to pierce through layer upon layer of obstruction and see the lofty Purple Firmament Palace.
"You stole everything belonging to Father God and turned the Primordial Wilderness into your slaughterhouse..."
"And I will reclaim everything belonging to Father God!"
A cold curve rose at the corner of Su Ming's mouth.
At the same time.
Beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, in Purple Firmament Palace.
That gaze that had pierced through endless spacetime was like an invisible sword, causing the eyelids of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, seated upon his cloud bed, to twitch almost imperceptibly.
He pinched his fingers to divine the secrets of Heaven, but the heavenly secrets were a complete chaos, shrouded by an overbearing and unparalleled force.
"Buzhou Mountain... an anomaly of the Primordial Wilderness..."
Several words escaped Hongjun's lips. His expression returned to its detached indifference, devoid of sorrow or joy. Yet deep within those eyes that contained the rotation of the Heavenly Dao, a trace of imperceptible gravity flashed.
Within Buzhou Mountain, in the empty darkness formed after Pangu's vital essence had been exhausted.
Su Ming stood silently.
He did not leave at once. His dead gaze swept across this space that had given birth to him.
He had already accepted every one of Father God's final gifts.
But was that really all?
A space capable of bearing an existence such as the origin of Pangu's spinal marrow could not possibly be ordinary.
His Divine Sense spread like mercury pouring onto the ground, instantly covering every inch of the void.
Before long, Su Ming's brows moved slightly.
At the end of this absolute darkness and void, he "saw" a speck of extremely faint light.
That light did not come from energy. It was the manifestation of a "principle," the embodiment of a "Dao." Had he not just refined Pangu's vital essence, causing his soul to faintly resonate with this world, he would have been completely unable to detect it.
He took one step forward, and his figure instantly appeared before that point of light.
It was a palm-sized jade fragment, chaotic in color and utterly unremarkable. It was even somewhat damaged, quietly suspended there as though it had existed since time immemorial.
The jade fragment was covered in dense, spiderweb-like Dao patterns. Each line seemed to expound one of the world's profound principles. A single glance was enough to make one's mind sink into them.
Su Ming extended his hand, and his fingertip was about to touch the jade fragment.
Buzz—!
An indescribably profound sensation followed his fingertip and instantly surged into his sea of consciousness!
In that instant, Heaven and Earth vanished from Su Ming's perception.
He seemed to have transformed into the first strand of Dao when Heaven and Earth had first opened, personally witnessing the separation of the clear and turbid, the surging of earth, fire, water, and wind, and the emergence of countless laws from nothing. They wove together into a net, ultimately forming the magnificent blueprint of the entire Primordial Wilderness.
Time, space, yin and yang, the five elements...
The laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos became clearer than ever at this moment, as though they were within reach!
Above his head, an Auspicious Cloud emerged, and three lotuses swayed gracefully.
His essence, energy, and spirit lotuses frantically absorbed that profound Dao rhythm at this moment, becoming solid and brilliant at a visible speed!
The petals that had originally been mere illusions now seemed carved from the finest divine gold and colored glass. Every petal bore engraved upon it profound marks of the laws.
"This is... a Creation Jade Disc Fragment!"
Su Ming tore his mind free from the ocean of the Great Dao, and unprecedented brilliance erupted from his eyes!
The Sky Splitting Axe governed slaughter, the Chaos Bead evolved chaos, while the Creation Jade Disc bore the Three Thousand Great Daos!
The reason Hongjun had been able to merge with the Dao and become the Dao Ancestor was precisely because he had obtained most of the Creation Jade Disc Fragments!
The fragment before him possessed a pure and ancient aura, untouched by even the slightest trace of acquired cause and effect. It was clearly the most fundamental portion that even Hongjun had failed to find!
This was not merely a treasure. It was an originally forgotten, most pristine part of the "Heavenly Dao" itself—the symbol of the authority of the Heavenly Dao!
A flash of brilliance passed through Su Ming's eyes.
With this object, his speed of comprehending the Great Dao would surpass that of any living being in the Primordial Wilderness!
When he faced Hongjun in the future, he would also have more confidence to pry at the Heavenly Dao!
Without hesitation, Su Ming's thoughts stirred, and he directly merged the Creation Jade Disc Fragment into the core of the three flowers above his head.
Boom!
The three flowers trembled violently and completely fused with the fragment, transforming into an even more mysterious Lotus Platform. It floated within the Auspicious Cloud, cascading ten thousand streams of auspicious radiance and setting off Su Ming like an supreme divine being who wielded the Great Dao.
After finishing all this, Su Ming did not linger any longer.
He sensed the spatial barriers. His strength was now more than ten times greater than before, and the restraints of this space had become meaningless.
"Open!"
He uttered only one word before throwing a punch!
There was no earth-shaking boom, only silent annihilation.
The spatial barrier before him was like fragile glass. It was instantly punched open by the Pangu True Force condensed to the utmost extreme within his fist.
He took one step forward, and the stars shifted.
The dazzling light made Su Ming narrow his eyes slightly.
He discovered that he had not appeared outside the body of Buzhou Mountain. Instead, he was in a deep and secluded valley.
Immortal energy filled the valley, and spirit herbs grew everywhere. Even the least mature ones had grown for more than a hundred thousand years. In the outside world, they would have been enough to make countless immortals and gods fight desperately.
What surprised him even more was that the entire valley was shrouded by an immensely powerful Innate Restriction, cutting off all heavenly secrets between the inside and outside.
Had he not broken through space from within, it would have been impossible to discover this place.
"Hmm?"
Su Ming's gaze was instantly drawn to a spot in the center of the valley.
There was a Blood Pool a hundred zhang wide.
The pool did not contain filthy blood. Instead, it was filled with a viscous Crimson-Gold Liquid resembling fine jade nectar, radiating vast and surging life force.
At the center of the Blood Pool, a gigantic Blood Cocoon slowly pulsed. Every beat was like a heartbeat, causing the spiritual energy throughout the valley to rise and fall with it.
An aura at the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm seeped from the Blood Cocoon. It was powerful, yet carried a hint of instability, as though it might collapse at any moment.
