On the starry sky, brilliant and silent for eons, a silver river hung high, its light flowing in myriad streams. Among the myriad stars, a particularly dazzling ball of light shone; it was the Sun Star, formed from Pangu's right eye after he created heaven and earth...
The Sun Star nurtured two three-legged Golden Crows with the bearing of emperors: Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi. They followed the Way of Gangyang, their bodies burning with True Sun Fire.
Di Jun was born holding the River Diagram and Luo Script...
Eastern Emperor Taiyi was protected by the Chaos Bell...
"Brother... listen to me."
In a sea of fire, a majestic and magnificent palace stood. Inside, two Golden Crows had taken human form, clad in emperor's robes, exuding an aura of dominance that filled the heavens with pride.
"Second Brother... speak your mind. What's there to be formal about with your elder brother?" Brother Di Jun spoke with pride, yet without any airs. It was the demeanor of an emperor, his face full of smiles, a true display of brotherly harmony.
"Brother... you possess the bearing of an Emperor." Eastern Emperor Taiyi bowed, his words shaking the nine heavens.
"Why do you say that, Second Brother? I believe my talent is extraordinary, my lineage noble. Few in the universe can match me, especially now that the Three Clans have declined and their three ancestors have vanished from the Primordial World. To speak of the bearing of an Emperor is still too soon..."
Di Jun stood with his hands behind his back, sighing with emotion. It was a display of mutual admiration between emperors. He regretted his past lack of strength, otherwise, a martial debate at Buzhou Mountain with the Ancestor Dragon, Primordial Phoenix, and First Qilin would have decided who stood supreme!
"Brother... the Three Clans have withdrawn from the Primordial World, and heaven and earth are without a master. The future great trend requires a struggle. We were born from the Sun, Pangu's right eye, illuminating the nine heavens. We bear the responsibility of ruling the cosmos. We must establish our own power..."
"This is an eternal hegemony, and it begins today..."
Eastern Emperor Taiyi looked at his elder brother Di Jun with fiery determination, his ambition vast, his aura capable of swallowing mountains and rivers, displaying a boundless supreme dominance across the nine heavens.
"Second Brother... you speak wisely. Heaven and earth are in chaos, and there must be a ruler. We two were born with the destiny of the heavens. It is only right that we should control the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and hold sway over the Primordial World..."
Di Jun ignited a flame, scorching the firmament. The entire Sun Star trembled. This was a three-legged Golden Crow at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level.
Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi's immediate agreement was filled with ambition and unparalleled pride. After exchanging another glance, they conceived an eternal plan, eager to put it into action...
"Fellow Daoists Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi on the Sun Star, Nuwa is here to visit. I hope to see you..."
As the two were plotting for the Primordial World, a voice that echoed through the nine heavens startled them slightly. They exchanged another glance. Nuwa and her brother were rare Great Divine Beings. A desire to recruit them arose.
This time, they had invited many powerful beings from the Primordial World, almost as if sending out invitations. The Sun Star was of utmost importance, requiring a personal visit...
"Hmm... and the Witch Clan, an unknown group, only at the Earth Immortal realm. Nuwa is at the Peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal level, how is that possible?"
As Di Jun appeared, he observed the visitors: Nuwa, Ancestral Witch Houtu, and a rookie named Chen Xuan. He was greatly surprised.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa... your presence on the Sun Star truly honors us. It has been a long time. I truly look forward to a discussion of the Dao. My brother and I have just discussed a major matter," Di Jun said with a smile.
"Oh! What matter is it?" Nuwa asked curiously, but remained very vigilant.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa... we are of the Demonic Race, tracing our lineage back to the same origin. We can establish a force and support each other. What do you think..." Di Jun said expectantly.
Nuwa shook her head and politely replied, "I am truly sorry, but I have other plans..."
"Hmph... what business do the three of you have on my Sun Star?" Eastern Emperor Taiyi couldn't help but interject. Even though he had considered recruiting them, he was still impolite, given the presence of Ancestral Witch Houtu and the weakling Chen Xuan...
The spirit of a strong individual should soar above the nine heavens. How could they associate with the weak? Furthermore, the Witch Clan was very powerful and would surely be an enemy in the future.
"Fellow Daoists, I am Houtu of the Witch Clan. The war between the Three Clans has caused the Primordial World to wither and all beings to suffer. Our Witch Clan bestows blessings widely and invites many powerful beings from the Primordial World to participate in our Primordial World's first God of Cooking Competition. We hope you will attend..."
Houtu's attitude was very humble. For the future of the Witch Clan, she had to show deference to others.
"God of Cooking Competition? What is this thing?" Di Jun was completely baffled. This thing seemed like something from the Savage Era. When everyone was rubbing sticks to make fire, you pull out a lighter and call it an Immortal Technique.
"What nonsense is this? State your true intentions..." Eastern Emperor Taiyi saw through the facade at a glance, his gaze sharp.
"Hmph... our intention is very simple. The Primordial World is without a master, and we need to select one to temporarily manage heaven and earth and mediate the conflicts between various factions. What do you think?" Houtu got straight to the point.
In the future, Hongjun, this troublemaker, the culprit behind pushing the Primordial World's Calamities, might be the final boss, but no one knows for sure. They had to plan carefully.
"Haha..." Eastern Emperor Taiyi threw his head back and laughed. Just moments ago, the two brothers had been plotting for the Primordial World, and now someone claimed one of them had the bearing of an Emperor. How could they let someone else be king?
"What do you mean by jointly recommending someone to temporarily manage the Primordial World? That's laughable. Who in the Primordial World isn't an unparalleled powerhouse? Why should your Witch Clan host this?"
"And another reason: only we two brothers can rule the Primordial World. You are not qualified..."
Eastern Emperor Taiyi was arrogant and looked down on everyone, because they had enough self-confidence. Why should they be controlled by others?
"Di Jun... what do you think?" Ancestral Witch Houtu took a deep breath, suppressing her anger. The two emperors of the Demonic Race were choosing to oppose them. In the end, it was the general trend, and there was nothing they could do to change it, right?
Di Jun swept his gaze over the three of them and said, "If one person is to be recommended to control the Primordial World, it can only be me, Di Jun. Do you dare to accept?"
This statement completely stunned Chen Xuan...
Was this guy a transmigator?
"Hmph... Di Jun... Taiyi... everything is up to fate. The price you two will pay for your schemes in the future will not be tenfold, but a hundredfold, or even more..."
"Good advice is wasted on deaf ears. Our Witch Clan can only find its own path. We hope you will not regret this..."
Ancestral Witch Houtu sighed. The general trend was irreversible, but minor trends could be changed. Everything was up to fate. This was the direction of the Primordial World. She had wanted to change many things, but others were too self-important.
"Let's go!" Nuwa also felt helpless. As a member of the Demonic Race, she could only regret it.
"These two fellows are indeed difficult to deal with. We can only do this. Let's go to the Taiyin Star and see how the Three Goddesses are arranging things. If possible, I want to take them away..."
Chen Xuan spoke. After all, the Three Goddesses had caused a stir in the Primordial World, and even in later generations, they were famous. They were no less than Nuwa and Houtu themselves.
Without Xihe's marriage, the future scenario of ten suns scorching the sky would be a mere illusion.
"You, with your scheming mind, are truly a disgrace to your ancestors. If you have any filthy thoughts, I don't mind twisting your dog head off and kicking it around like a ball..."
Nuwa gritted her teeth. He was clearly eyeing other options while still having one.
"Sister Nuwa... how are scum like that dealt with?" Ancestral Witch Houtu was very curious, not paying attention to him.
Nuwa thought seriously for a moment and said, "In the past few thousand years, the most outstanding punishment has been dunking in a pig cage, you scumbag..."
"Hey, hey... I'll sue you for defamation, believe it or not? I'm still a single dog, isn't it normal to want a goddess as a wife?" Chen Xuan tried hard to refute.
"Little Xuanzi... don't worry, this palace will make one for you." Nuwa's voice seemed to come from between her teeth.
"I... I don't need it..." Chen Xuan sighed, the wrath of a great being was not something an Earth Immortal could bear.
The three of them quickly arrived in an ice-cold world. From afar, they saw a desolate scene with a giant Laurel Tree blooming with flowers...
Below it, three goddesses were swinging. Their white robes were as pure as snow, and their ethereal presence brought a touch of grace to the frigid world, making them impossibly beautiful.
"My three sisters... you live such carefree lives. It's been a long time since you visited Buzhou Mountain to see me..."
A celestial voice rang out, it was Nuwa's joyful tone. Indeed, she had a wide circle of friends, from Houtu on the surface to the three sisters of Taiyin in the nine heavens, all were good sisters.
A true social butterfly...
"Nuwa... how do you know so many goddesses?" Chen Xuan asked cautiously.
Nuwa said proudly, "There are very few female cultivators in the Primordial World, so we naturally cherish each other. We met during our travels and became sisters, but we rarely interact as we pursue the Great Dao."
The three descended onto the Taiyin Star, a world of ice and cold. It was worthy of being the Guanghan Palace, evoking endless loneliness. Especially with the three goddesses present, it felt like an iron gate sealed for eternity, with no escape.
It was said that within Taiyin, there was a Taiyin River. Once it erupted, the heavens and earth would freeze over, and endless cold energy would sweep across the Primordial World, requiring someone to guard it...
The three goddesses on the Taiyin Star were born from the Taiyin River and naturally had control over it.
"We did not expect the arrival of Nuwa, please forgive our lack of welcome..." The eldest of the three goddesses, Wangshu, was serene and elegant, her voice clear and resonant, naturally noble.
"Actually, this guy wanted to abduct you all..." Nuwa pointed at Chen Xuan.
