Back Then, I Couldn't Even Sleep Well

Chapter 4: Back Then, I Couldn't Even Sleep Well

Shen Gui was utterly confused.

He had no idea what was going on.

Didn't I transmigrate into the Chaos and become a Chaos Demon God?

How could the Chaos be gone after just one sleep?

However, Shen Gui didn't have time to think too much before he felt something strange with his primordial spirit.

Sinking his consciousness into his sea of consciousness, a semi-transparent Small Turtle floated in mid-air.

It was his primordial spirit.

Directly above Shen Gui's primordial spirit, a thirty-six-story Mysterious Yellow Small Pagoda slowly rotated. Streams of Mysterious Yellow Qi cascaded down from the pagoda, enveloping his primordial spirit and nourishing it.

This was also the source of the strangeness Shen Gui felt.

Before Shen Gui could ponder what that small pagoda was, a flash of spiritual light suddenly appeared on the pagoda and then merged into Shen Gui's primordial spirit. At the same time, a piece of information appeared in Shen Gui's mind.

It was a message left by Pangu.

Scenes unfolded like slides in Shen Gui's mind. Watching these scenes, Shen Gui's expression was numb.

So, all those years, I was sleeping right by Pangu's feet?

How reckless could I be!

He had been thinking about how to survive the Great Tribulation of Heaven Opening, but before Pangu could even open the heavens, he had already sent himself to his doom.

However, since he was still alive now, it meant things weren't that bad. So, Shen Gui patiently continued to watch.

Next was Pangu fighting the Three Thousand Demon Gods alone.

Although it was just a memory, watching those Chaos Demon Gods, whom Shen Gui felt he could easily crush, fall under the Pangu Axe, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

It was truly a stroke of luck that he was still alive.

Then, as he watched further, he understood the reason why he had survived.

After finishing all the information with a speechless expression, so, I had actually died once?

I can only say, thankfully I transmigrated into the Great Desolation World. As long as the primordial spirit is not destroyed, it's not a complete fall. Otherwise, someone like me who got a lunchbox after just one sleep would definitely bring shame to transmigrators!

He let out a light sigh. No matter what, it was good to be alive.

Although he had lost the demon god body he had cultivated for who knows how many years in the Chaos, it wasn't without gains.

With that thought, Shen Gui looked up at the small pagoda above his primordial spirit.

After digesting the message left by Pangu, he naturally understood what that small pagoda was.

The first acquired supreme treasure of merit, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Pagoda.

Formed from three layers of Pangu's world-creation merit, it was said that standing with it above one's head meant standing in an invincible position, impervious to all methods.

Originally, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Pagoda should have been obtained by Laozi, the foremost of Pangu's Three Pure Ones. However, in this life, he had not joined the Chaos Demon Gods in attacking Pangu. Instead, he had accompanied Pangu for countless eons. In the end, Pangu had used his own demon god body to supplement the deficiencies of the Great Desolation, thus owing him a karmic debt.

If Pangu had directly annihilated his primordial spirit and true spirit, the karma would have naturally vanished. But Pangu was, after all, not that kind of evil Chaos Demon God.

Therefore, although Pangu destroyed his demon god body, he left his primordial spirit and chose to use the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Pagoda to repay this karma.

This could be considered a blessing in disguise.

With the foresight of a transmigrator, coupled with the natural advantage of being a Chaos Demon God in comprehending certain Great Daos—though Shen Gui still hadn't figured out which of the Three Thousand Great Daos he controlled—and now possessing the defensive supreme treasure, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, as long as he didn't court death, he should be able to protect himself in the Great Desolation.

After all, in a sense, Shen Gui had also become part of the Great Desolation, and thus possessed a share of its merit.

In other words, he was what people often called someone with great merit and great destiny/fortune.

Unless there was a mortal enmity, no one would be willing to kill such a person.

Because killing someone with great merit and great destiny/fortune would lead to being forsaken by the Heavenly Dao.

Understanding this, Shen Gui became very calm.

Ever since he transmigrated, he knew the Pangu Axe was hanging over his head, ready to strike at any moment. He had lived in constant fear, unable to even sleep soundly. Now, he could finally relax.

Regardless, where was he now?

After Pangu created the heavens and earth, he seemed to have fallen into the Northern Great Desolation.

With that thought, Shen Gui's consciousness left his sea of consciousness and returned to the outside world.

In the north of the Great Desolation.

On a Giant Mountain.

Two slopes of the mountain suddenly began to shake.

Immediately after, the entire Giant Mountain started to tremble.

Countless rocks and soil shattered and scattered, and the creatures living on the Giant Mountain fled in all directions.

After an unknown amount of time, the Giant Mountain finally stopped shaking.

At this moment, if someone were to look down from above, they would suddenly realize that it was not a Giant Mountain at all. It was an Enormous Head. The two slopes were actually its eyelids. It had only been mistaken for a Giant Mountain because rocks and soil had accumulated on its surface while it was sleeping.

Now, it had awakened.
