Grand Formation of the Myriad Stars

Xuanhuang sat cross-legged in a stone pavilion amidst the Taiyin's beautiful scenery, quietly awaiting Pangu.

Perhaps it was the battles of the past year that made the demon gods realize Pangu was not easy to deal with. Pangu had been comprehending the Dao for so many years, and not a single one dared to come here to disrupt his secluded cultivation.

Pangu was comprehending the Dao, while Xuanhuang guarded him. Ten thousand eight thousand years passed like this. In these ten thousand eight thousand years, Pangu had found his own opportunity. Although it was not yet perfect, he had already found his direction.

The awakened Pangu exuded a calm and peaceful aura. It was like spring, devoid of his original domineering and ruggedness. There was only a calm and peaceful aura.

As Pangu awoke, Xuanhuang noticed it instantly. He opened his eyes and looked at Pangu quietly, his eyes full of smiles.

Pangu also smiled slightly and bowed to Xuanhuang, saying, "Thank you, fellow Daoist. But there is one thing I do not understand. I still cannot see through this Chaos Green Lotus. I only feel that the Primordial Violet Qi it absorbed is being transformed by it, and it is nurturing a magical treasure."

Xuanhuang said, "Fellow Daoist, this Chaos Green Lotus was born with you and will only benefit you. I have also paid attention, especially to the twenty-four lotus leaves, which show signs of being drawn into the Green Lotus. I made a calculation, and a purple qi surrounded it, hindering my calculations. It seems that what is being formed is definitely extraordinary."

Pangu said, "You already know my Dao, which is the Path of Creation. To walk this Path of Creation, one must open up a world, use it to evolve all things, and prove the Great Dao."

Xuanhuang said, "Evolving all things may seem simple, but it is actually not easy. What kind of world is suitable for all living beings to survive in? Can these beings continue to exist? Beings that cannot perpetuate themselves are of no benefit to Creation, nor to the Great Dao."

"Yes, I saw Great Immortal Yang Mei's world in the Tai Xuan dreamscape and felt it should be like this, but it seemed to be missing many things. That is my train of thought. Perhaps by following this line of thought, it can be perfected."

Xuanhuang praised, "Great Immortal Yang Mei, born as a god of space and possessing the Chaos Bead to form a world, is indeed extraordinary."

Pangu said, "The beings in that world seem exceptionally spiritual and varied, with all sorts of strange forms. In reality, they are all the same, with no differences. It seems far from what the Great Dao requires."

Xuanhuang said, "Those were all forcibly condensed using spiritual energy, not the result of self-evolution. It seems to lack emotion, and only with seven emotions and six desires can it become perfect. This world is also too uninteresting."

Pangu said, "There are too many variables in this Chaos world. If they are not resolved, even opening the sky and evolving all things will be a major hidden danger."

After a pause, he continued word by word, "I must settle the karma with the Chaos Demon Gods! The karma of the Three Thousand Demon Gods is also something I must resolve to prevent future changes. Moreover, only by thoroughly settling the karma at the time of Sky Opening can my state of mind be perfected.

Pangu roared, and as the words "Sky Opening" left his lips, the giant axe placed beside him flashed with golden light. The words 'Sky Opening' appeared on the axe, imbued with immense power and adorned with the divine patterns of the Great Dao. Pangu stroked the Sky-Opening Axe and murmured, "So this is your true form. You will achieve great things in the future." After speaking, Pangu unleashed his domineering aura, which instantly spread throughout the Chaos. At this moment, all the remaining Chaos Demon Gods in the Chaos knew Pangu's message.

"My name is Primordial Heavenly King. Today, I wish to open heaven and earth and prove the Great Dao. I hereby inform the Chaos that I will fight to the death with all Chaos Demon Gods to completely settle our karma!" His deep, thunderous voice instantly spread throughout the Chaos. Whether they were in secluded cultivation or simply wandering, all the Chaos Demon Gods listened quietly.

The remaining less than a thousand Chaos Demon Gods were almost simultaneously terrified. Some paced back and forth in their dojos, filled with anxiety. Some could not hold back and flew directly towards Pangu and Xuanhuang.

However, a thought simultaneously arose in the minds of all the gods and demons: they absolutely could not let Pangu prove the Dao. This was the only belief in their minds at that moment.

At this moment, the usually calm Great Immortal Yang Mei also felt a pounding heart, a sense of mortal danger. He murmured to himself, "Can't avoid it?"

Dao Lord Lu Ya was also extremely panicked, "Great Immortal, what should we do? This time is different. I feel that Pangu will come to our door."

Great Immortal Yang Mei tried to calm himself and said, "The Great Dao has fifty, and the Heavenly Dao has forty-nine. One is allowed to escape, which means we still have a sliver of hope. We cannot sit idly by; we must fight to secure this sliver of hope."

Dao Lord Lu Ya said, "Yes, we should unite. We cannot be like a pile of loose sand; we will be defeated one by one."

Great Immortal Yang Mei nodded, "That's right. No one can match Pangu's individual strength. Only a powerful formation can harm him. For many years, because I knew my immortal spirit world was incomplete, I have been searching for opportunities and have deduced a great formation, the Grand Formation of the Myriad Stars."

Lu Ya asked, "What is the Myriad Stars?"

Great Immortal Yang Mei said, "My world has an upper heaven and a lower earth. The heavens should have the sun, moon, and stars, which sprinkle stellar power for the growth and cultivation of all living beings on earth."

Dao Lord Lu Ya said, "Brother, you already know this great formation, why haven't you perfected it for this world?"

Great Immortal Yang Mei sighed, "Condensing these stars is simple, but generating stellar power is not so simple. The sun and moon need the energy of the sun and the energy of Taiyin to be nurtured. And the stars should also have the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, as well as elements like wind, rain, thunder, and lightning. Only the Great Dao can do this; I am still far from it."

Dao Lord Lu Ya said, "Isn't it possible to implement the Grand Formation of the Myriad Stars?"

Great Immortal Yang Mei said, "Not necessarily. After all, this is a formation. We can unite all the gods and demons, and based on their attributes, simulate stellar power. Although it is very different from true stellar power, it is not impossible to fight against him."

Lu Ya said, "I will contact a few friends and announce to the Primordial Era that we will unite to deal with Pangu."

"Dao Lord is right, we must stop Pangu from proving the Dao. Once Pangu proves the Dao, where will there be a place for us Chaos Demon Gods to survive?"

For survival, all the Chaos Demon Gods went mad.

"We will do whatever the Dao Lord commands. Please instruct us."

Great Immortal Yang Mei looked at the eager crowd and nodded deeply. He carefully explained the Grand Formation of the Myriad Stars. The heavens and earth should have stars, and the stars execute according to a certain trajectory, divided into four dimensions: east, west, north, and south. Each dimension has seven mansions corresponding to the sun, moon, gold, wood, water, fire, and earth; the Eastern Seven Mansions are Jiao, Kang, Di, Fang, Xin, Wei, and Ji; the Northern Seven Mansions are Dou, Niu, Nü, Xu, Wei, Shi, and Bi; the Western Seven Mansions are Kui, Lou, Wei, Mao, Bi, Zi, and Shen; the Southern Seven Mansions are Jing, Gui, Liu, Xing, Zhang, Yi, and Zhen.

Each dimension has seven leaders, and each leader leads 13 gods and demons, totaling 364 people. In the center, a formation eye or a pivotal figure is set up, totaling 365 people, corresponding to the 365 stars of the universe, simulating the stellar power of the universe to attack enemies or defend oneself.

One person said, "What are the magical uses of this formation?"

Great Immortal Yang Mei said, "The Myriad Stars shine upon each other. The terrifying aspect lies in the Great Dao rules contained within the stars. They are a part of the evolution of the Great Dao, and no one can stop the evolution of the Great Dao."

Lu Ya frowned, "But now there is only chaos, and that star domain has not yet appeared. Are we Chaos God Demons just a process of the Great Dao's evolution?" He then said in fear, "Is... is our destruction destined?"

Great Immortal Yang Mei lowered his head and pondered, "Perhaps, but there is still that sliver of hope."

Lu Ya sighed, "This sliver of hope may be difficult to grasp, but for now, we must resolve this battle with Pangu. Please instruct us, Great Immortal."

All the gods and demons also roared, "Everything is as Great Immortal instructs!"

Great Immortal Yang Mei also looked up and let out a long cry, concentrating his mind and saying, "To set up this formation, we need to refine 365 Great Zhou Tian Star Banners, condense 365 main stars, and then infuse them with the power of us gods and demons. Each person represents a star, and then the Grand Formation of the Myriad Stars with unparalleled power can be formed. However, even with the stellar power simulated by all of you fellow Daoists, if there is no four-dimensional power to maintain it, it will be difficult to last, and the mutual radiance between the stars will not form. Although you will have stellar power, it will only be individual combat among everyone."

Everyone was bewildered and involuntarily asked, "Is there no way?"

Great Immortal Yang Mei pondered, "There are four elements in Chaos: earth, water, wind, and fire, which are extremely violent. The Four Spirits should be born in response, and if these Four Spirits are willing to merge into my world, it is not impossible to achieve."

A fierce man bared his chest, holding an eight-cornered bronze hammer in both hands, and leaped out, saying, "What needs to be done, I will not frown even once."

Everyone looked at the person before them and marveled. He seemed ordinary, but unexpectedly, he was one of the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth. Not a single person recognized him, and they couldn't help but guess his origin.

His voice was like thunder. As he spoke, a gust of black wind erupted, like a surging torrent. Countless small tornadoes swirled around him. Each seemed weak, but their spiritual sense, used for probing, was sucked into a boundless black hole, and some even let out a scream.

Those who wanted to observe the opponent's cultivation realm all suffered some punishment from the wind.

Everyone was greatly surprised and said, "Wind, this person must be the Wind Spirit!"
