"Big Brother, are you ready to open the heavens and create a world?" Xuanxiao looked up, a trace of anticipation in his eyes as he asked Pangu.
Pangu gave a slight nod, a flicker of resolve flashing in his gaze.
"Good, then take my life however you need it, Big Brother. This body of mine was already at its last gasp anyway." Xuanxiao said without a moment's hesitation.
Hearing this, a glint of guilt passed through Pangu's eyes.
"Alright, Big Brother, it's just giving up the identity of a Chaos Demon God—it's not like I'm dying. Without that identity, I'll just start cultivating again from scratch. And once you succeed in recreating the world, that Chaos Demon God status would only become a burden to me anyway. If you really feel bad about it, after you open up the Primordial World, just send me plenty of heavenly spiritual roots as compensation."
Xuanxiao said with a smile, trying to ease Pangu's mind.
With that, Xuanxiao hesitated no more and resolutely chose to self-destruct.
As Xuanxiao fell, the Great Dao seemed to sense it all, emitting a low, rumbling sound.
The Great Dao had already perceived that all the Chaos Demon Gods had completely perished.
Pangu silently stared at the place where Xuanxiao had fallen, remaining still for a long time.
He forced down the grief in his heart, burying that emotion deep within.
Then, gripping the Pangu Axe, he swung it with all his might.
With that swing, boundless power surged forth, and the chaotic space instantly split into countless massive fissures, like a shattered spiderweb.
But Pangu was not satisfied with what he saw. He swung the Pangu Axe again.
With each swing, a part of the chaos shattered.
After who knew how many swings, Pangu finally nodded in satisfaction.
Then, with a wave of his hand, all the Great Dao laws left behind by the Chaos Demon Gods converged in that spot.
At the same time, he seized the remnants of the Chaos Demon Gods' bodies and gathered them there. These Great Dao laws and the demon gods' remains intertwined and merged, beginning to construct an entirely new world.
Under this power, a boundless new world gradually took shape within the chaos.
Pangu looked upon this newly born world, a look of relief in his eyes.
Yet this newborn world was still too fragile to withstand the crushing pressure of chaos.
At the edges of the world, signs of shattering and disintegration had already begun to appear under chaos's oppression.
How could Pangu tolerate the world he had so carefully crafted being so fragile?
Without hesitation, he split the Pangu Axe in his hand into three, transforming it into the Taiji Diagram, the Pangu Banner, and the Chaos Bell.
These three spirit treasures each possessed unique divine abilities and different functions, but all were crucial for stabilizing the world at this moment.
With a wave of his hand, Pangu sent the three treasures merging into the world, erecting a solid protective barrier for this newborn realm.
Pangu glanced at the already battered Jade Butterfly of Creation and Chaos Green Lotus, gently shook his head, and said softly, "Go."
As his words fell, these two Chaos Supreme Treasures instantly shattered into countless fragments.
At the same time, the remains of other Chaos Spirit Treasures in the chaos also merged with these fragments, scattering like brilliant stars throughout the entire world.
After arranging all this, Pangu stepped into the world, raising both hands to support the newborn realm from below.
Under his efforts, the sky of the new world rose one zhang each day, and the earth thickened one zhang each day.
Thus, after countless long years, the sky finally stopped rising, and the earth stopped thickening.
Pangu understood that this new world had reached its current limit; he could no longer increase its foundation.
Gazing at the vast new world before him, Pangu smiled in satisfaction. "I heard Little Brother say the world I opened is called the Primordial World. Then let your name be the Primordial World."
As soon as he spoke, Pangu's body began to gradually fade.
The breath from his mouth slowly turned into the winds and clouds drifting through the Primordial sky;
His voice became peals of thunder that echoed deafeningly across heaven and earth;
His left eye transformed into the Solar Star, radiant with boundless light, illuminating the entire Primordial World;
His right eye became the Great Yin Star, cool and bright, casting gentle moonlight over the Primordial;
All the hair on his body turned into countless twinkling stars, dotting the vast night sky.
His limbs and torso became the countless towering mountains of the Primordial World;
His blood flowed into surging rivers and seas, vast and magnificent;
His sinews turned into hidden spiritual veins within the mountains and rivers, brimming with endless spiritual energy;
His skin became the vast grasslands, and the hair on his skin grew into lush spiritual plants, full of life;
His teeth and nails turned into countless precious metals and spirit stones, buried deep within the earth;
His spine became a colossal mountain supporting the heavens, steadfastly bearing the immense pressure of chaos for the Primordial World.
When everything finally settled, a mysterious and dazzling purple mass of light appeared in the world—this was the Great Dao Merit.
As soon as the Great Dao Merit appeared, it began to split apart rapidly.
Three parts merged with the Heaven-Opening Pure Qi and integrated into the three parts of Pangu's Primordial Spirit;
Two parts combined with the Mysterious Yellow Qi of the Primordial World and were absorbed by the twelve drops of heart blood within Pangu's heart.
Then, Pangu's heart fused with the Mysterious Yellow Qi, transforming into a majestic Pangu Hall—this was the origin of the later-renowned Twelve Ancestral Witches;
One part continued to merge with the Mysterious Yellow Qi, taking shape as a pagoda and a ruler—these were the acquired merit defensive supreme treasure, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, and the acquired merit offensive supreme treasure, the Primordial Measure Ruler;
Another part turned into spiritual rain, nourishing the Primordial World and filling this newborn realm with vitality and vigor;
The final three parts wandered through the Primordial World for a time, then shattered the void and vanished, gone without a trace.
Once all the Great Dao Merit had been distributed, the largest fragment of Pangu's Primordial Spirit rolled up the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, then led the other two fragments as it slowly descended into the Primordial World.
The Twelve Ancestral Witches and Pangu Hall followed closely behind, entering the Primordial World together.
Finally, the Primordial Measure Ruler lingered in the void for a while before shattering the void and disappearing.
With the division complete, the world formally transitioned from the Chaos Era to the Primordial Era.
