Shamate Pangu

"Sigh. If anyone ever tells me again that the Chaos World is littered with treasures, I'll have words with them!" Xuanxiao grumbled, utterly speechless.

Although he had long stopped obsessing over finding treasures, after countless eons of wandering, his cultivation had already reached the Sixth Heaven of Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Yet in all his travels through the Chaos World, most of what he encountered were nothing more than Chaos Rough Stones—a fact that still left Xuanxiao somewhat disappointed.

He had heard that in later ages, Haotian and Yaochi were said to be enlightened by Hongjun from Chaos Rough Stones.

But Xuanxiao had no intention of enlightening any child servants. Besides, even if he did, they simply couldn't survive in this chaotic environment.

In this Chaos World, treasures were hard to come by, but dangers lurked everywhere.

Chaos Storms that struck without warning, Space Rifts and collapses that appeared out of nowhere—risks like these were utterly unendurable for anyone below the Golden Immortal realm.

Even Golden Immortals could barely hold on for a short while; any longer, and death was the only outcome.

Only Chaos Grand Luo Golden Immortals had the ability to survive in this chaos.

But in truth, the most dangerous beings in the Chaos World were the Chaos Demon Gods themselves.

Struggles among the Chaos Demon Gods played out every moment in this Chaos World, making them the greatest source of instability.

Just as Xuanxiao was grumbling to himself, a faint aura drifted from ahead, as if calling out to him.

Xuanxiao instantly sensed this aura, and his eyes lit up. "Could it be that my opportunity has finally arrived?"

How could Xuanxiao hold back now? With a flicker of his form, he vanished from his spot like a bolt of lightning.

"This... this is actually the Chaos Pearl!!!"

Xuanxiao could hardly believe his eyes. The orb before him, radiating a faint purple glow, floated silently in the void.

"But this is too much of a coincidence. I just finished complaining about not finding any treasures, and the Chaos Pearl shows up. Could it be that Father Dao has finally acknowledged me as His second son?" At this thought, an uncontrollable surge of excitement welled up in Xuanxiao's heart.

He eagerly reached out and took the Chaos Pearl into his hand.

"It really is the Chaos Pearl... only, how did it degrade to a half-step Chaos Supreme Treasure? I wonder what caused it." Xuanxiao looked at the Chaos Pearl in his hand and shook his head helplessly.

Though it fell short of the Chaos Supreme Treasure he had originally hoped for, Xuanxiao still felt deeply satisfied.

After carefully stowing away the Chaos Pearl, Xuanxiao looked expectantly at the void and called out, "Father Dao, how about sending me a few more treasures? I'm not greedy—just give me the World-Destroying Millstone, and I'll be content."

But after he spoke, the Chaos World showed no reaction at all.

Seeing this, Xuanxiao curled his lip. "Fine, how stingy. It's just one Chaos Supreme Treasure—can't even spare that?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a chill ran through his body. A purple whip lashed out from the void, striking Xuanxiao repeatedly.

"Sss! Here we go again!" Xuanxiao shuddered from the whip's blows.

"I won't dare! I swear I won't dare next time! Father Dao, have mercy!" Xuanxiao quickly begged for forgiveness.

At his words, the purple whip finally vanished.

Sensing that Father Dao had left, Xuanxiao Sighed in Relief. He was nearly developing a psychological shadow from that whip.

Then he swiftly departed from the place, continuing his journey of wandering.

And so, who knew how many more long ages passed. By now, Xuanxiao's strength had climbed to the Eighth Heaven of Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

"Sigh. Advancing any further with my current cultivation is probably incredibly difficult. I've already reached the Eighth Heaven, yet I still can't fully control the Sea of Lightning within my Sea of Consciousness. Do I have to reach the Dao realm to master it completely?" Xuanxiao felt the Sea of Lightning in his Sea of Consciousness, his heart full of frustration.

Over these years, he had tried countless times to control that Sea of Lightning, but each attempt ended in failure.

During this long stretch of time, Xuanxiao had also visited many Chaos Demon Gods, including the top nine among them.

He was confident he could defeat the others, but the top three—Time Demon God Shichen, Space Demon God Yang Mei, and Fate Demon God Fate—truly made him uncertain.

The formidable strength of the first two kept Xuanxiao from letting his guard down, while the Fate Demon God was notoriously cunning; no one knew how many backup plans he had hidden away.

These three had all reached the Eighth Heaven of Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal as well, but Xuanxiao had reason to suspect they were concealing their true power.

"Forget it. I've been out long enough—time to head back." Xuanxiao shook his head helplessly, carefully sensed Pangu's current location, and his figure gradually faded into the void.

"Big Brother, I'm back!" Xuanxiao's voice brimmed with joy.

At that moment, he was like a wanderer who had finally returned home after drifting far away for so long.

Hearing Xuanxiao's voice, a figure instantly appeared before him. "Little Brother, you're finally back! If you hadn't returned, I was about to go looking for you." His voice was equally filled with delight.

"Big Brother, you've already been born!" Xuanxiao stared at the figure before him and couldn't help exclaiming in surprise.

In the past, Pangu had always communicated with Xuanxiao as a phantom, but this time, the Pangu before him was clearly no phantom—it was a solid Dao Body.

"Hahaha, not officially born yet. This is a Divine Ability I developed over these ages." Pangu laughed heartily.

"By the way, Big Brother, how did you come up with this look?" Xuanxiao hesitated for a moment, then asked, looking at Pangu's appearance.

At this moment, Pangu wore a simple, honest expression, but what stood out most was his head of yellow hair, identical to that of a Saiyan.

"You told me about it. No matter how strong you are, you need to play the fool, and didn't you say this was the most popular look in later ages? What do you think? Not bad, right?" Pangu said, reaching up to touch the striking yellow hair on his head.

Xuanxiao couldn't help swallowing silently. "It looks great. Really great. But Big Brother, could you change your hair? It's way too flashy."

Xuanxiao had never expected that Pangu would take a joke he'd made earlier so seriously.

He simply couldn't imagine what it would look like for Pangu, sporting that head of yellow hair, to fight other Chaos Demon Gods.

Hearing Xuanxiao's words, Pangu said with a hint of regret, "Alright, I'll switch to another style."

The moment he spoke, Pangu's hair instantly turned a lush green, so green it seemed to glow.

Seeing that glaring green, Xuanxiao quickly said, "Big Brother, I think pure black looks best on you."

Though a bit reluctant, Pangu heeded Xuanxiao's advice and changed his hair to black.
