Pangu's Spinal Marrow, the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram Reappears, a Supreme Treasure

The Primordial World trembled, and all living beings quaked.

What was the deal with Chu Yan? He was either fighting or on his way to a fight.

Watching Chu Yan take on the Five Saints alone, countless mighty beings were filled with admiration.

"But what a pity. Chu Yan may have the complete Human Race Dao Tradition, but he hasn't become a Sage, so he can't bring out its full power. On top of that, he doesn't have a divine weapon in hand. Breaking the formation will be hard—very hard."

"Exactly. The last time he managed to cripple the Pangu Banner, it was only because he burned the Human Race Dao Tradition. But this time... sigh."

Though he had condensed the Killing Spear, it still hadn't fully taken shape.

"Right. Just managing to break through the Five Saints' suppression is impressive. As for killing them in a counterattack? Impossible."

"Hmph. Chu Yan brought this on himself by crippling his own foundation. Otherwise, he would've become a Sage long ago. These Sages wouldn't have been able to lord it over him!"

Now that Nuwa had the Qiankun Fortune Cauldron, an Innate Supreme Treasure with unique abilities, the situation had changed.

Chu Yan knew he couldn't win this battle. Still, he was doing it to help Sect Master Tongtian—and to bring more Variables into the Primordial World.

He had wagered everything the Human Race had.

Seeing the Five Saints overpower Chu Yan, countless mighty beings were frantic.

The Witch Race was especially anxious, practically burning with worry.

But at that moment, they had no power to manifest their Ancestral Witch True Bodies again. All they could do was fret.

Deep within Buzhou Mountain.

Hongjun had chased after them like a madman. When he charged into the cave, all he saw was a vast expanse of white.

At its center was a ball of warm jade, impossible to see through. Hongjun was stunned.

"This... this really is Pangu's Spinal Marrow! Hahaha! I have to get it. Then I can reshape my clone and escape the Heavenly Dao's entanglement! Hahaha! Come to me!"

With a furious roar, he reached out with one hand. But the next instant, he felt a terrifying force surge toward him.

"This..."

At that moment, Hongjun felt as insignificant as an ant.

Escape.

He didn't dare think twice. His instinct was to flee; he had sensed a terrifying killing intent just moments ago.

But then his face changed drastically.

"This... I can't move! Pangu, are you trying to imprison me?"

He roared in fury, but all he got in response was a cold snort.

Pfft—

Hongjun was struck as if by a crushing blow, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then he found himself unable to move a muscle. Even his divine sense was trapped.

"No, no—!"

He was frantic, but there was nothing he could do.

He had come here without finding Sect Master Tongtian, and had only managed to trap himself.

Rumble...

At that moment, Pangu's boundless aura filled Sect Master Tongtian's body.

It was like a dream. He seemed to have slept for billions of years, yet also as if an eternity had passed in a single second.

So tired... so very tired. Sect Master Tongtian felt as if he'd been exhausted for ages without ever closing his eyes. At last, he had collapsed and could sleep soundly.

He slept deeply. When he opened his eyes again, he felt refreshed and clearheaded.

The next instant, his face filled with shock.

"This... my Primordial Spirit has recovered?"

He immediately examined it, only to find that his Primordial Spirit had returned to its peak condition. It glowed with a lustrous light, as if pure and flawless.

It had really recovered! He had split off twelve portions of his Primordial Spirit before, then burned away more than half of it to help Chu Yan.

He had thought his Primordial Spirit could never recover, yet now it had returned to its peak.

Sect Master Tongtian felt his mind grow clear, as if he could see through so many things.

"So that's how it is. I understand now. I understand everything."

With a single glance, Tongtian saw through the Interception Sect's past and present, and even through the Heavenly Dao's schemes.

"Human Master, you didn't deceive me."

Sect Master Tongtian sighed. Chu Yan truly was a great talent. He hadn't expected him to have seen through everything long ago.

At the very center of his Primordial Spirit, a strand of purple light shimmered.

Sect Master Tongtian could see it clearly: it was the Hongmeng Purple Qi.

He hadn't expected the Hongmeng Purple Qi, which had already fused with his Primordial Spirit, to have been forcibly sealed in one spot.

He suddenly felt that he could shatter that strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi.

But Sect Master Tongtian didn't do so.

After a sigh, he reached out with one hand, and a palm-sized piece of Pangu's Spinal Marrow appeared in his grasp.

The next instant, the piece of Pangu Jade Marrow expanded rapidly, almost filling the entire cave.

"Refine!"

Blazing flames enveloped Sect Master Tongtian's soul as he began refining the Pangu Jade Marrow.

Sect Master Tongtian had considered refining something else, but he loved swords. The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation indeed couldn't suppress the Interception Sect's fortune.

Still, he couldn't bear to part with the sword formation.

"Human Master said the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation can't stabilize the Interception Sect's fortune not only because it focuses on killing, but also because it lacks the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram. In that case, I, Sect Master Tongtian, will complete the formation diagram and let the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation regain its former glory."

With a single gesture, he tossed the Immortal Slaying Four Swords into the Pangu Jade Marrow.

"Father God passed down his legacy to me, but I would rather follow my own heart. If fate allows, I'll leave this inheritance for someone with the right opportunity."

Sect Master Tongtian swept out one hand, sending this opportunity to inherit the legacy straight toward the Human Race of the Primordial World.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

The Immortal Slaying Four Swords were truly powerful.

Though he had never seen the formation diagram, he had heard Chu Yan describe it.

And after taking control of the Immortal Slaying Four Swords, Sect Master Tongtian had studied the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation and Pangu's inherited memories.

He was certain that he could craft the Zhu Immortal Formation Diagram.

Inside the Pangu Jade Marrow, the Immortal Slaying Four Swords were wrapped up. But before Sect Master Tongtian could even exert his power,

the Pangu Jade Marrow began refining them on its own.

"This... is Father God's Will helping me?"

Suddenly, a tear rolled down his cheek. Then more tears streamed down in an unending torrent.

"Father God, no—!"

At that instant, Sect Master Tongtian understood that Pangu was close to reaching his limit.

He also understood that this was the last time Father God Pangu would help him.

Hongjun had seized him and brought him to Buzhou Mountain, then joined forces with the Chaos Demon Gods to suppress Pangu's Will.

He had forced his way into the River of Destiny to win a Thread of Life for the Human Race and the Witch Race.

Every one of these deeds had consumed Pangu's Will.

Now, Pangu was finally nearing the end of his strength.

"No—!"

A heart-wrenching roar burst from Sect Master Tongtian's mouth.

Perhaps Pangu had known from the very beginning that he would lose. He had simply refused to accept being manipulated, so he had fought with all his might.

But now he was utterly spent. All he could do was help the Human Race open a Thread of Life,

then leave a glimmer of hope for his inheritance.

Buzz—

Suddenly, in an instant, a terrifying killing intent burst forth. Wild, piercing sword energy shot straight through Buzhou Mountain.

In an instant, it swept across the entire Primordial World.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom..."

Countless living beings were instantly shredded to nothing by the sword energy.

"What terrifying killing intent! What incredible sword energy! That's Sect Master Tongtian's Immortal Slaying Sword!"

"What's going on? How can it be this powerful?"

Countless living beings turned pale when they felt it.

Had something happened again?

"This is... oh no, Immortal Slaying Sword Qi! Tongtian's here!"

The Five Saints, who were fighting Chu Yan at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, turned pale.
