Pangu Decided to Stay at Yue Sheng Palace and Help Lin Yue Protect the Primordial Wilderness

In Yue Sheng Palace's Chaos Great Hall, Azure-Gold Heaven Opening Dao Rhyme intertwined with the Five-Colored Five Ways Law. The earth veins and spirit springs surged within the hall, and the spiritual mist they formed could refine one's Dao Body and nourish one's soul with a mere touch. Thirty-six Sea-Calming Pearls hung from the ceiling, their starlight falling and merging with the Heaven Opening Dao Rhyme to form a gentle curtain of light. It protected the entire hall, shutting out the disturbances of the outside world while allowing the aura of the Great Dao to flow naturally within and nourish the spirit veins and fortune of all Yue Sheng Palace.

Pangu sat on the Heaven Opening Jade Marrow Cloud Bed, his Chaos Dao Robe fluttering lightly around him, its Heaven Opening patterns shining brilliantly along the hem. He had just finished listening to Lin Yue recount the changes the Primordial Wilderness had undergone over countless years—from the three clans' struggle for supremacy during the Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation, to the shattering of heaven and earth during the Witch-Demon Calamity, to the sectarian conflicts of the Investiture of the Gods Calamity, and finally to the current situation, with Western Teachings lying low and the Outer Realm Forces watching covetously. The emotions churning in his heart gradually settled, leaving only a weighty desire to protect, growing ever more resolute.

He raised a hand and waved lightly. A streak of Azure-Gold Heaven Opening Dao Rhyme swept across the hall, smoothing the curtain of light that had trembled from his earlier anger. His gaze fell on Lin Yue once more. This time, there was no confusion in his eyes, nor any sorrow over the calamities he had heard about—only the composure of someone tempered by countless ages, and a deep regard for this world.
