Opening the Twelve Heavens, World Dao Field!

Su Ming ignored his two disciples' shock and bent down to pick up the Five Elements Spirit Sword.

At this moment, the remnant soul imprint within the spirit sword had been completely erased, turning it into a truly ownerless item.

Su Ming's divine sense probed into it, and fragments of memories from before the Old Ancestor of Five Elements' demise surged into his mind like a tide.

As he had expected, the Old Ancestor of Five Elements had indeed fought fiercely with Demon Ancestor Luohu during the Dragon-Han Tribulation, and ultimately perished.

However, before his demise, he had made a contingency, entrusting a wisp of his remnant soul to his 본명 (natal) spiritual treasure, the Five Elements Spirit Sword, and setting up a restriction to guard his Dao Field, waiting for a destined person.

Unfortunately, the person who arrived was not some destined individual, but the Great Venerable of the Witch Clan, Su Ming!

Su Ming chuckled and imprinted a wisp of his own Primordial Spirit into the sword.

The Five Elements Spirit Sword let out a joyful sword cry, radiating brilliant light and establishing a close, blood-like connection with him.

This top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure was now his.

"Master, that person just now..." Kong Xuan finally recovered from his shock and asked cautiously.

"Merely a remnant soul's obsession from the Old Ancestor of Five Elements, nothing to fear," Su Ming casually put away the spirit sword.

Now that the guardian was dealt with, it was time for the real treasure hunt.

The three passed through the front hall and soon arrived at the core main hall of the Dao Palace.

In the center of the main hall was not a luxurious throne, but a meditation cushion. Before the cushion, a radiant jade slip floated quietly.

"This is... the inheritance of the Old Ancestor of Five Elements!" Golden-Winged Great Peng exclaimed.

The moment Kong Xuan's gaze fell upon the jade slip, the Five Elements bloodline within his body began to boil uncontrollably!

He felt that the Great Dao contained within the jade slip was incredibly compatible with his own origin!

Su Ming saw his longing and smiled faintly.

He understood in his heart that this was likely the true opportunity from the original story that allowed Kong Xuan to cultivate to become the foremost figure below a Saint through his own efforts.

The Old Ancestor of Five Elements, with an origin comparable to that of Ancestor Dragon and Primordial Phoenix among the Chaos Demon Gods, his inheritance was undoubtedly tailor-made for Kong Xuan!

Su Ming's divine sense swept over the jade slip. Within it, the Great Five Elements Reincarnation Method and many other secret arts were profoundly mysterious, directly pointing towards the Primordial Great Dao.

If an ordinary Grand Unity Golden Immortal obtained it, they would likely be overjoyed.

But in Su Ming's eyes, it was beneath his notice.

"The cycle of the Five Elements, a give and take, always has an end. How can it compare to my Great Dao of Chaos, all-encompassing and eternally indestructible?"

His goal was to transform himself into Chaos and forge the True Body of Chaos!

The Dao of the Old Ancestor of Five Elements was ultimately too small in scope.

"Kong Xuan, Golden Peng, this inheritance belongs to both of you!"

Yin Yang and Five Elements, the two complement each other. Five Elements must incorporate Yin Yang, and Yin Yang must encompass Five Elements.

This cultivation technique could also be practiced by Golden Peng.

Su Ming flicked his finger, and the jade slip transformed into a stream of light, entering the foreheads of Kong Xuan and Golden Peng.

A massive flow of information instantly flooded their minds, and Kong Xuan and Golden Peng showed expressions of ecstatic joy.

They immediately sat cross-legged and began to digest this immense opportunity.

Su Ming did not disturb them and continued his exploration.

As expected of the Dao Field of an ancient powerful being, this Five Elements Dao Palace not only had the core inheritance but also stored many good things in the side hall storerooms.

More than a dozen Innate Spiritual Treasures, although mostly of lower and middle grade, were enough to cause a bloody storm in the outside world.

There were also mountains of various Innate Spiritual Materials and Spiritual Roots of the Five Elements attribute.

Su Ming did not stand on ceremony and took all the heavenly materials and earthly treasures of the Five Elements attribute, as well as the top-grade Innate Spiritual Root, the Five Elements Fruit Tree, into his possession.

As for the more than a dozen Innate Spiritual Treasures, he couldn't even be bothered to glance at them. With a wave of his hand, he gave them all to Golden-Winged Great Peng, making him so happy his mouth couldn't close.

After all this was done, the entire Five Elements Dao Palace was almost emptied.

Su Ming looked at Kong Xuan and Golden Peng who were sitting cross-legged, comprehending, and then at the abundant Five Elements origin items he had obtained. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

It was time to take that final step!

He sat down cross-legged.

With a thought, two supreme treasures appeared out of thin air.

One was the Universe Ruler, and the other was the twelve Sea Calming Divine Beads, radiating immeasurable divine light!

"Today, I shall emulate Daoist Burning Lamp and create the Twelve Heavens within the Sea Calming Divine Beads!"

Su Ming held the Universe Ruler and gently slashed it towards one of the Sea Calming Divine Beads!

"Boom!"

The ruler fell, and heaven and earth opened!

Inside that tiny bead, a vast and boundless small world was instantly created!

Earth, fire, water, and wind surged, and Yin Yang and Five Elements were born!

But this wasn't the end!

Su Ming's eyes blazed with divine light; what he intended to do went far beyond this!

He took a deep breath, unleashing the terrifying physical and Primordial Spirit power of a Witch Clan Great Venerable simultaneously. An invisible, immense force enveloped the entire area where the Five Elements Dao Palace was located!

"Rise!"

With his low shout, the Dao Palace, which had existed for countless eons, began to shake violently!

Then, to the Golden-Winged Great Peng's horrified gaze, it was forcefully ripped from the void by an unimaginable power!

In the next moment, Su Ming flicked his wrist. The portal to the Lesser Thousand Worlds he had just created opened wide, swallowing the colossal Five Elements Dao Palace, along with the immortal island itself!

From then on, this ancient Dao Field became his personal portable abode!

Having accomplished this, Su Ming let out a long sigh. Looking at the Sea Calming Divine Beads in his hand, which had transformed into a Lesser Thousand Worlds, a satisfied smile curved his lips.

"Rumble!"

Inside the Sea Calming Divine Beads, the newly created Lesser Thousand Worlds shook violently.

The Five Elements Dao Palace, forcibly uprooted by Su Ming's supreme power, along with the entire Five Elements Valley, was swallowed by the portal of the Lesser Thousand Worlds and then slammed heavily onto the land of the nascent world.

For a time, the earth convulsed as if reenacting the scene of creation!

But Su Ming's expression remained unchanged. His Primordial Spirit power suppressed downwards, and he softly commanded, "Still!"

One word, and it became law!

The earth, fire, water, and wind, which had been raging wildly moments before, instantly calmed. The violently shaking earth also stabilized.

The Five Elements Dao Palace settled firmly in the center of the Lesser Thousand Worlds, as if it had always belonged there.

What surprised Su Ming even more was that as the Dao Palace integrated, the five top-grade Five Elements Spiritual Veins, which had been brought along, instantly burrowed deep into the earth like five giant dragons, completely merging with the ley lines of this Lesser Thousand Worlds.

"Buzz—"

In an instant, the spiritual energy concentration of the entire Lesser Thousand Worlds surged!

The world, which had been slightly barren, began to sprout greenery at a visible rate. Between the mountains and rivers, Five Elements Spiritual Energy intertwined and flowed, transforming into brilliant clouds and mist. The entire world was filled with vibrant life.

This Lesser Thousand Worlds had come alive!

Just then, a cold, mechanical voice sounded in Su Ming's mind.

[Ding! Detected host successfully opening up and integrating a Dao Field, activating special Trait: World Dao Field!]

[World Dao Field Level Classification: Lesser Thousand Worlds, Lesser Thousand Worlds, Middle Thousand Worlds, Great Thousand Worlds, Primordial World, Chaos World, Primordial Chaos World!]

[Current Dao Field Level: Lesser Thousand Worlds!]

[Special Ability Activated: Time Acceleration!]

[Time flow within this Lesser Thousand Worlds Dao Field is ten times that of the outside world!]

Ten times the time flow!

Su Ming's breathing hitched slightly, and his eyes erupted with unprecedented brilliance.

Ten times!

What did this mean?

One year passed in the outside world, and he could cultivate for ten years in this Lesser Thousand Worlds!

For the Primordial World, on the brink of a Great Tribulation with time running short, this was a heaven-defying, fate-altering divine skill!

He had been worried that the Witch Clan, lacking Primordial Spirits, could not comprehend the Heavenly Dao, and their cultivation speed was far inferior to the Demon Clan.

But with this tenfold time flow, everything would change!

He could completely open up an area here, allowing the Witch Clan's warriors to enter and use ten times the time to temper their physical bodies and cultivate the Nine Revolutions Primordial Art!

At that time, what kind of terrifying, explosive surge in strength would the Witch Clan experience?

Su Ming's heart surged with excitement.

He could already see the scene in the near future: an army of billions of Witch Clan members, having cultivated the Pangu True Body, sweeping across the Primordial World, invincible!
