An angry voice resounded through the Nine Heavens. Nuwa was furious—she never expected to have died a second time.
Moreover, a portion of the fortune from creating the Human Race had been knocked away.
But what shocked her even more was that the aura was unmistakably that of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, yet its intensity matched an Innate Supreme Treasure.
Could it be that Sect Master Tongtian had obtained some heaven-defying opportunity within Buzhou Mountain?
"No—pfft—"
Nuwa roared in fury, her gaze skyward, unable to accept it.
In the end, she spat out a mouthful of blood in rage.
Suddenly, Sect Master Tongtian's voice echoed across the Primordial World, piercing through the chaos.
"Junior Sister Nuwa, the Killing Calamity of the Primordial World has already emerged. Since you have died once, stay put in your Wa Huang Palace. If you dare show yourself in the Primordial World again, I, Tongtian, will surely scatter your Three Flowers and extinguish your Five Qis."
His voice rolled like thunder, resounding throughout every corner of the Primordial World.
Countless Living Beings were utterly astonished.
They all knew Sect Master Tongtian was powerful, but they never imagined he had reached such a level.
To the point where he could drive a Sage from entering the Primordial World?
"Tongtian, just you wait, This Sage will have his revenge."
Nuwa was seething with rage. She knew that after dying once, as long as she didn't enter the Primordial World, the Killing Calamity wouldn't touch her.
But every time she saw the terrifying fortune of the Human Race, she couldn't help herself.
And now, being threatened like this by Sect Master Tongtian?
Nuwa was about to go mad.
"Tongtian, you forced my hand. Fine then, let's have some fun."
You think having an Innate Supreme Treasure makes you invincible?
Then I'll take the Fortune Cauldron and repair the Donghuang Bell—no problem, right?
With a single grab, she headed straight for the Demon Heavenly Court.
"Eastern Emperor Taiyi, give This Sage the Donghuang Bell."
Before Eastern Emperor Taiyi could figure out what was happening, he felt the Donghuang Bell vanish from his hand.
"No good, my Donghuang Bell!"
His face instantly changed, but the next moment, Nuwa's voice rang out:
"Don't panic. The Donghuang Bell was originally the Chaos Bell, an Innate Supreme Treasure. Its rank dropped to an Innate Spiritual Treasure during the Dao-Demon Conflict. Today, This Sage will use the Qiankun Fortune Cauldron to restore the Donghuang Bell to its origin, returning it to an Innate Supreme Treasure. Use it well—crush the Witch Race and cripple the Human Race for This Sage."
Nuwa's voice was filled with fury and murderous intent, echoing endlessly in the minds of Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
After the shock passed, Eastern Emperor Taiyi immediately knelt in worship.
"Thank you, Sage."
Then he burst into laughter:
"Big Brother, we're about to hit the jackpot, hahaha!"
"Yes, Second Brother, my Heavenly Court finally has something to show for itself, hahaha!"
Di Jun had reforged his physical body to rival an Innate Supreme Treasure. After returning to the Heavenly Court, he compared himself to Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
The result? Eastern Emperor Taiyi was pressed to the ground and rubbed in the dirt—he couldn't even resist.
Because of this, the fortune of the Demon Heavenly Court began to recover.
A body at the level of an Innate Supreme Treasure belonging to the Demon Emperor inherently had the effect of stabilizing fortune.
And now that the Chaos Bell had once again become an Innate Supreme Treasure?
The Demon Race's fortune would grow even richer.
At this moment, at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, Sect Master Tongtian controlled the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, completely trapping the Four Sages.
Nuwa had been slain and wouldn't dare enter the Primordial World for a short time.
"Human Master, Tongtian has arrived late."
"Haha, not late at all. You've come just in time."
After Chu Yan recovered, he looked over.
Indeed, the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was different now.
"Human Master, thanks to your guidance, Tongtian obtained Father God's spinal marrow. This allowed the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation to return to the ranks of an Innate Supreme Treasure. I also reforged the Formation Diagram. Now, the formation's power has increased tenfold. Even if all the Sages attacked together, I, Tongtian, could kill them as I pleased."
He expected Chu Yan to be happy for him, but instead saw him sigh.
"What a pity, what a pity."
"Hm? Human Master, why do you say that?"
Chu Yan said:
"Sect Master, no matter how good the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation is, it's still an external object. Only strengthening oneself is the true path."
Chu Yan explained:
"Sect Master, you were born from Pangu's Primordial Spirit. If you could absorb Pangu's Spinal Marrow yourself and refine a Pangu physical body, how could your strength be limited to this? Not only would your power skyrocket, but you could also reforge the Pangu Demon God Bloodline. Even breaking free from the Heavenly Dao's shackles would be possible. But you... ah."
Chu Yan sighed. Perhaps this was fate.
"Forget it, forget it. It's my fault for not making it clear back then. What a pity..."
Hearing this, Sect Master Tongtian also felt awkward, but since things had come to this, regret was useless.
"Human Master, rest assured. Tongtian has no regrets. Though I failed to reforge my physical body, my Primordial Spirit has fully recovered. It's just a pity—I'm afraid Father God can no longer reappear in the Primordial World. His will has weakened to the extreme, perhaps..."
Hearing this, Chu Yan's heart ached. Was it still impossible to change the outcome of Pangu's complete fall?
Once Pangu fell entirely, the entire Primordial World would become Hongjun's private garden.
At that point, would the Human Race still have any hope of transcendence?
"By the way, Human Master. Father God used his terrifying will to forcibly seal the Hongmeng Purple Qi within my soul. I can break free from the Hongmeng Qi's control at any time."
Sect Master Tongtian immediately transmitted this news to Chu Yan.
Chu Yan was greatly shocked.
"What? You're saying Pangu's Will forcibly pulled out the Hongmeng Purple Qi, and you can collapse and abandon your Saint Position at any time?"
"Yes, Human Master. But Tongtian hasn't abolished it yet. I wanted to ask if you have any plans."
Tongtian also wanted to escape being a Variable.
"Good, this is excellent."
Chu Yan was overjoyed. Originally, tricking Sect Master Tongtian into abandoning his Saint Position was part of his plan.
He never expected it to be accomplished so quickly.
"Sect Master, no rush. Now that the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation can fully suppress the Jie Sect's fate, I imagine someone will start to grow anxious."
Chu Yan looked up at the sky and said:
"Don't make this public for now. Didn't Hongjun say that in ten thousand years, all Variables would become Fixed Numbers? Then I'll give him a big gift when the time comes."
"Good."
Sect Master Tongtian cooperated fully, then said:
"By the way, Human Master. Hongjun is currently trapped at Buzhou Mountain by Father God. We should hurry and take care of your business. If we wait until Hongjun breaks free, it will be troublesome."
With that, Sect Master Tongtian prepared to move.
But Chu Yan was stunned.
"Wait. You're saying that old bastard Hongjun is trapped?"
"Yes, trapped. But it won't hold him for long. Time is tight, let's go."
"No."
Chu Yan immediately rejected the idea.
"Sect Master, wait."
Chu Yan felt like he had grasped something. A flash of inspiration struck him—he sensed this was an opportunity.
It was very likely the last chance Pangu had fought for him.
Suddenly, Chu Yan made up his mind.
"Sect Master, don't rush to Buzhou Mountain. Since Hongjun is sealed and can't break free for a short time, then Sect Master—you can't kill these Saints, but dare you directly suppress them?"
"I can suppress them. This Sect Master will suppress them for ten thousand years."
Now that the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation had reached the level of an Innate Supreme Treasure.
And all of Sect Master Tongtian's old injuries had fully healed.
His sword dao insight had reached a new level.
Using the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation to trap the Four Saints was completely within his ability.
"Human Master, what exactly do you intend to do?"
Chu Yan only gave a cold smile and said:
"The Five Saints of the Heavenly Dao have bullied my Human Race too much. This opportunity is rare—how could I let it go? This must be a chance given to me by the Great God Pangu."
A surge of murderous intent erupted from his body:
"Sect Master, I, Laozi, am going to raze Kunlun Jade Void Palace to the ground and shatter Western Mount Sumeru right now."
