The Primordial World disregards the passage of time.
Since Pangu created heaven and earth, this realm has revolved for countless eons.
It has endured myriad tribulations in between.
The Primordial World's tribulations began with the Three Tribes' struggle for dominance during the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation, and have now evolved into the conflict of the Witch-Demon Tribulation.
Currently, nearly ten thousand years have passed since the first major battle between the Witch and Demon tribes concluded.
The Six Sages have long since attained the Dao and become Saints.
The Primordial World has temporarily returned to peace.
Although the Witch and Demon tribes occasionally engage in localized conflicts, a full-scale war is unlikely for the time being.
Ten thousand miles beyond Buzhou Mountain, there lies Wuji Peak.
This mountain is a blessed land, long occupied by a cultivator.
At the summit of Wuji Peak, before Changsheng Palace, a young and handsome cultivator emerged.
His name was Lu Changsheng. Gazing at the Primordial World, he couldn't help but sigh:
"Alas—I still transformed too late!"
Lu Changsheng was not native to the Primordial World;
he was a transmigrator.
Fortunately, unlike other transmigrators with ordinary foundations, his fortune was quite good.
He had transmigrated as an Innate Deity, his true form being the Innate Enlightenment Tree.
His current cultivation was early Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Even so, he couldn't help but lament:
"If I had transformed during the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation, I would at least be a Quasi-Saint powerhouse by now."
Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng shook his head again:
"With this foundation, even if I transformed a bit late, I will definitely reach Quasi-Saint in the future.
It's a pity the Saint positions are full;
my path forward is ultimately limited!"
In the Primordial World, even a Quasi-Saint, hailed as the strongest below a Saint, is merely an illusion.
Below Saints, all are ants.
Those who have not become Saints can never escape the status of ants.
Upon this thought, Lu Changsheng felt a sense of melancholy in his heart.
Where his path forward led was still unknown.
Just as Lu Changsheng was feeling lost about the future, a mechanical voice sounded in his mind without any warning.
"Ding—Host detected, Great Dao Spendthrift System is initiating binding!"
The moment that "Ding" sounded, Lu Changsheng's confused expression vanished instantly.
The corners of his mouth turned up, his face filled with joy.
As a transmigrator, how could he not know what a "System" was?
However, when the System announced its name, Lu Changsheng's smile froze on his face.
Several dark lines appeared on his forehead.
"What is this? A spendthrift system? Can this thing even be used in the Primordial World?"
As a transmigrator, Lu Changsheng was all too familiar with systems.
There were all sorts of systems: flashy, spendthrift, suicidal, and face-slapping systems.
But the compatibility between a system and the world it was in was extremely important.
Using a spendthrift system in a modern urban world would be like having a divine setup.
But in the Primordial World... how could one be a spendthrift?
Just as Lu Changsheng was filled with confusion, the system binding was finally complete.
"Ding--Congratulations to the host, the Great Dao Spendthrift System has been successfully bound."
"Rewarding the host with ten quadrillion Merit, please spend it freely."
"After spending all ten quadrillion Merit, you can become a Saint on the spot, achieving the supreme Great Dao Saint."
After hearing the system's introduction, Lu Changsheng was shocked.
"I can directly achieve Great Dao Saint!"
One had to know that the current Six Sages of the Primordial World were merely Heavenly Dao Saints.
Even Dao Ancestor Hongjun was merely a spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao.
And what the system promised was a Great Dao Saint that surpassed the Heavenly Dao and reigned over chaos!
Recalling the ancient Overgod Pangu, who annihilated three thousand Chaos Demon Gods comparable to Heavenly Dao Saints with a single axe, he was only at the half-step Great Dao realm.
He was still far from becoming a true Great Dao Saint.
Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng's smile grew even brighter.
Looking at the ten quadrillion Merit in the system, he chuckled:
"If I use all this ten quadrillion Merit on myself, can I directly become a Great Dao Saint?"
As Lu Changsheng muttered to himself, the system prompt sounded again.
"Ding--The ten quadrillion Merit gifted by the system cannot be used to improve the host's own cultivation and strength."
"Nor can it be given to others without reason; it can only be given based on the principle of equivalent exchange."
It would be great if these ten quadrillion Merit could be used to indulge himself.
Why bother racking his brains to fiddle with other things.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng suddenly recalled the "Bihu" forum he used to frequent before transmigrating.
A sudden impulse surged within him, and he really wanted to post a question immediately:
"I'm in the Primordial World, with ten quadrillion Merit. How can I spend it all in the shortest possible time?"
Just as Lu Changsheng was grumbling inwardly, the system prompt sounded again:
"Ding--Detected that the host has bound the system for the first time, a mysterious gift package is specially presented, please claim it promptly!"
Hearing the prompt, a flash of surprise appeared in Lu Changsheng's eyes, and he whispered to himself:
"As expected of a spendthrift system, it just gave me ten quadrillion Merit, and now it's giving a gift package!"
With a thought, he clicked on the system panel and chose to receive it.
Immediately, a golden gift package appeared in his mind.
Lu Changsheng opened it without hesitation.
"Ding--Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Great Dao: Primordial Creation Art x1"
"Ding--Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Innate Supreme Treasure: God-Slaying Spear x1"
"Ding--Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Great Dao divine ability: Sacred Azure Tribulation Light x1"
"Ding--Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Chaos Spirit Fruit: Ascending Dao Profound Spirit Fruit x1"
Listening to the continuous system prompts and browsing the rewards displayed on the panel.
Even as a transmigrator who already had some understanding of the Primordial World, Lu Changsheng's heart raced and his breathing quickened.
The rewards in this mysterious gift package were truly shocking.
"As expected of a spendthrift system, these rewards are beyond imagination!"
Lu Changsheng gazed at the rewards on the system panel, his heart filled with excitement.
Taking the first reward, "Primordial Creation Art," as an example.
This Great Dao can condense three thousand Dao Seeds within the body and evolve three thousand Laws.
When facing enemies, the blessing of the three thousand Laws makes one invincible.
If all the Laws can be fully comprehended, the combat power will increase by more than ten thousand times, with astonishing power.
More importantly, cultivating this Great Dao can automatically deduce the three thousand Laws.
No more bottlenecks or obstacles on the path of cultivation.
It allows one to directly reach the supreme realm of a Great Dao Saint naturally.
This is the true value of the Great Dao.
In contrast, others in the Great Desolation World.
Even the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique cultivated by the Three Pure Ones.
Being able to cultivate to the Quasi-Saint realm is already considered top-tier in the Great Desolation.
On a higher level, there are Primordial Unity realms like Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
Being able to cultivate to the extent of severing the three corpses is enough to make countless cultivators in the Great Desolation yearn for it.
The realm of the Great Dao, one can imagine how unattainable it is.
"Unfortunately, due to the system's rules, I will never be able to attain the realm of a Great Dao Saint until I have spent all my trillions of Merit."
Lu Changsheng looked at the Primordial Creation Art and whispered helplessly.
After a sigh, Lu Changsheng shifted his gaze to the second reward--
The Innate Supreme Treasure, God-Slaying Spear.
In an instant, his mood brightened again.
After all, this was a Magic Treasure once wielded by the Demon Ancestor Rahula, known as the most ferocious supreme treasure in the Great Desolation. Its power was astonishing, and its malevolent aura could even corrode the Primordial Spirit of a Saint.
After recalling the records of the God-Slaying Spear, Lu Changsheng took it out without hesitation.
Instantly, a malevolent aura permeated the area outside Changsheng Palace, the spear tip glinting with a cold light. Its sharpness was so immense that even without being directly struck, the sheer edge was enough to easily shatter a physical body.
"Tsk tsk, this is the most ferocious supreme treasure in the Great Desolation, comparable to the Immortal-Slaying Sword?"
Lu Changsheng gazed at the sharpness of the God-Slaying Spear, exclaiming repeatedly.
In the Great Desolation, it was comparable to the Immortal-Slaying Sword, which required "the Four Saints to break," and was a top-tier supreme treasure of the Great Desolation.
After a careful examination, Lu Changsheng began the refinement process.
As an Innate Supreme Treasure, the God-Slaying Spear required eighty-one restrictions to be fully refined.
A thousand years passed in the blink of an eye, and he finally refined this ultimate killing treasure of the Great Desolation for his own use.
After playing with it for a while, Lu Changsheng continued to look at the third reward--
Great Dao divine ability: Sacred Azure Tribulation Light.
He was not familiar with this divine ability, so he directly checked the relevant introduction in the system.
Sacred Azure Tribulation Light: Upon activation, it unleashes a tribulation light. Wherever it passes, yin and yang are reversed, space and time are annihilated, and heaven and earth return to silence!
Lu Changsheng was deeply shocked by the description.
"What a terrifying divine ability!"
Although the divine ability's power was boundless, his current cultivation was only that of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. He probably couldn't even unleash one ten-thousandth of its power.
Amidst his shock, Lu Changsheng turned his gaze to the final reward--
Chaos Spirit Fruit: Ascending Dao Profound Spirit Fruit.
Just the name alone made his heart surge with excitement.
After all, Chaos Spirit Fruits were supreme spiritual roots that had vanished since the beginning of the world.
Currently, the highest grade in the Great Desolation was only the top-grade Innate Spiritual Root.
As for Chaos Spirit Roots, beings in the Great Desolation had never even heard of such chaotic items, let alone seen them with their own eyes.
Even those Saints of the Great Desolation had only heard of their names and never seen the actual fruit.
"Tsk tsk, they even directly gifted this thing. This system is too generous!"
While surprised, Lu Changsheng eagerly looked at the effects of the Ascending Dao Profound Spirit Fruit.
Although the effect was simple, it was extremely astonishing--
It could transform one's origin.
This ability was truly astounding.
Seeing such generous rewards, Lu Changsheng could no longer hold back.
He immediately took out the Ascending Dao Profound Spirit Fruit and began refining it.
As the spirit fruit was refined, three thousand Great Dao prophecies appeared around Lu Changsheng, swirling ceaselessly, exuding supreme pressure.
At the same time, the myriad acupoints within his Purple Mansion, each evolved into a world.
Upon closer inspection, the acupoints contained their own universes, It formed its own realm, within which the starry sky was vast and brilliantly radiant.
As ten thousand acupoints simultaneously bloomed with dazzling light, a terrifying aura belonging to a top-tier Chaos Demon God erupted, breaking through the acupoints around his body and piercing straight into the heavens, drawing the attention of countless powerful beings in the Primordial World, who looked on with surprise.
They attempted to investigate, but found the aura had already vanished without a trace.
The transformation was complete. Lu Changsheng let out a long breath, "Hoo—it's finally done. I wonder what level my foundation has been elevated to?"
As he spoke to himself, he used his divine sense to observe himself internally, discovering that his foundation had risen from an Innate Deity, all the way to the realm of a top-tier Chaos Demon God.
Witnessing this result, even Lu Changsheng, a transmigrator, couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this the power of a Chaos Spirit Root? It's simply incredible!"
One must know, his foundation was already considered top-tier, currently, the Six Sages of the Primordial World only possessed the foundation of Innate Deities, while he himself was now comparable to Pangu, a top-tier Chaos Demon God.
With the elevation of his foundation, Lu Changsheng's cultivation also made a significant leap, advancing from the early stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal to the late stage.
After refining the Chaos Spirit Fruit, Lu Changsheng began his cultivation of the Great Dao.
