Consciousness Awakens

As the sun rose and the moon set, as white clouds shifted and the world changed, the Great Wilderness had never counted the years. In the blink of an eye, one Tribulation had passed since Pangu created Heaven and Earth.

Within Primordial Heaven and Earth, everything created from Pangu's flesh gradually finished evolving, while the remaining bodies of the Chaos Demon Gods dissolved into this land. Suddenly, a beam of white light shone forth from the depths of the Great Dao. The residual True Spirits of those Chaos Demon Gods left behind from Chaos felt their Seas of Consciousness go blank. Their cultivation insights, realms, and Cultivation Methods from their time in Chaos all vanished, and they could no longer recall even the slightest trace of them.

Thus, after a ray of Great Dao Foolish Divine Light descended, the remaining Chaos Demon Gods all fell into a deep slumber, beginning to merge with certain compatible Innate Origins within the Great Wilderness and gestate life forms suited to it.

Several hundred Eons passed after the Great Dao bestowed the Great Dao Foolish Divine Light. In the northeastern Great Wilderness, within a boundless sea filled with bloody and baleful qi, a hazy Dao Sound rang out.

"Who am I? Where am I?"

Chang Yu felt as though his mind was a mass of Chaos! Then, a realization arose in his mind from somewhere unseen, accompanied by an immense inherited memory that appeared in his Sea of Consciousness! Chang Yu felt as though his entire soul had been packed completely full.

In his previous life, he had merely been an ordinary young man enjoying the blessings of a 007 work schedule. He had only stayed up late reading a Great Wilderness novel before suddenly dying from overwork. By a stroke of fate, he had arrived in the Great Wilderness and seemingly taken Styx's place!

Several more Eons passed before Chang Yu finally sorted through the immense inheritance in his mind and regained consciousness. "Mm! The Great Wilderness! I actually came to this Great Wilderness, where Grand Unity cultivators were as common as dogs and Quasi-Saints roamed everywhere!"

Chang Yu was initially panicked, but he soon became excited. In his previous life, he had also been a novel fan and had read all kinds of stories. More than once, he had fantasized about transmigrating and becoming the protagonist.

Now, it had finally come true, and he even had a chance at immortality. Although Old Ancestor Styx's life had been rather pathetic, wasn't he here now? And he had arrived so early. He had plenty of time to change everything. After making up his mind, he told himself, My previous life is gone. From now on, let me leave behind a legend of my own in this Great Wilderness under the name Old Ancestor Styx! (From now on, only Styx will be used.)

"I don't think I've properly looked at the world I'm in yet!" Styx slowly spread out his senses. Everywhere was a sea of blood-red, and his soul was inside the placenta at the center of that crimson expanse! "Hmm~ In the novels I read before, Styx was born from the Blood Sea Placenta, formed from Great God Pangu's navel blood mixed with the essence blood left behind after the deaths of three thousand Chaos Demon Gods. It seems that was indeed correct!"

At the same time, beside the placenta stood a blood-colored Twelve-grade Lotus Platform and two strangely shaped swords. "Styx's Companion Spiritual Treasures—the Twelve-grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus, Yuan Tu, and A Bi!" The two swords could kill without accruing Karma!

All three were Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures. Among them, however, the Twelve-grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus possessed forty-eight restrictions, making it a top-tier Supreme Spiritual Treasure just one step away from becoming an Innate Supreme Treasure! Yuan Tu and A Bi, on the other hand, possessed only thirty-eight restrictions and were merely Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures!

Beyond the placenta and Spiritual Treasures, an Innate formation also enveloped the area. From his inheritance, Styx learned that this Formation was called the Sea of Blood Creation Great Array. It could not only conceal and defend, but also draw the essence qi contained within the blood of the entire Blood Sea, as well as the spiritual qi between Heaven and Earth, to nourish Styx's embryo and Spiritual Treasures within the Great Array!

(

Acquired Spiritual Treasures were Spiritual Treasures refined by people, while Innate Spiritual Treasures were nurtured by Heaven and Earth, formed from downgraded remnants of Chaos Demon Gods' Spiritual Treasures, or transformed from fragments of the Chaos Green Lotus! Acquired Spiritual Treasures were not necessarily weaker than Innate Spiritual Treasures. However, because Acquired Spiritual Treasures were artificially refined, they had to be reforged if damaged. Innate Spiritual Treasures, meanwhile, contained Innate Undying Spiritual Light and could slowly recover on their own even if shattered!)
