The East Sea.
Penglai Immortal Island.
Waves surged and rolled, the sea roared, and immortal energy churned amid a sea of clouds and rosy light.
Boundless Supreme Yang Law shook the void, drawing in Innate Spiritual Qi. Purple Qi spread everywhere, and Holy Light shone without end.
"How did I end up transmigrating into the Primordial Wilderness and become the first wisp of Yang energy, Dong Wanggong? Dao Ancestor Hongjun even bestowed on me the title Head of Male Immortals, only for me to die besieged by the Yao Race and Wu Race?"
"What a disaster!"
A cry of shock rang out from within the Supreme Yang Qi. A thousand furious curses raced through Cai Song's mind.
Originally, he had been a senior at Wujiafen Royal Women's College on Blue Star.
He'd just managed to flirt his way into the good graces of a sophomore girl and had been hoping to take things further, break through the final barrier, and become a proper ladies' man.
But who could've guessed he'd transmigrate in such an absurd way?
As it happened, he'd also been a writer of Primordial Wilderness novels, so he knew all the pitfalls of the Primordial World.
In short, the waters of the Primordial World ran too deep. He couldn't handle them.
Dong Wanggong's origins were inferior to those of the Two Golden Crow Brothers, and his merit couldn't compare to the Three Pure Ones. To establish himself in the Primordial Wilderness and Prove Dao and Become a Saint was nothing but wishful thinking.
"Forget it. Since I'm here, I'll make the best of it. At worst, I'll lie low and keep a low profile."
"The Great Dao is free and unrestrained; everything exists for a reason. From now on, I'm Dong Wanggong, and Cai Song is no more!"
Dong Wanggong murmured to himself, and Dao Sound rang out in response. Clearly, the Great Dao had acknowledged him as an anomaly. From now on, he was officially a resident of the Primordial World.
[Ping!]
[The host's consciousness has awakened. God-tier Choice System loaded successfully.]
[Choice One: Emerge from seclusion and contend for supremacy in the Primordial Wilderness, suppressing the Three Races. Reward: Chaos Spiritual Root, Enlightenment Tea Tree.]
[Choice Two: Stay hidden on Penglai Immortal Island and cultivate in seclusion. Reward: Pangu's Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique and the Yin-Yang Demon God's origin.]
A seductive, mature woman's voice spoke in Dong Wanggong's divine sense.
He hadn't expected his system to have such a bewitching voice, but he liked it.
"It's the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation, and the Three Races are fighting for supremacy. Wouldn't emerging from seclusion just be asking for death?"
"Besides, I haven't fully matured yet. If I try to fight the Three Races with my Peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation, any random foot soldier could kill me."
"Better to act cautiously and focus on cultivation!"
Dong Wanggong made up his mind at once.
The Three Races were fighting for supremacy, and one great power after another was taking the field.
Ancestor Dragon, Yuanfeng, and First Kirin each ruled over the Primordial World. All three had reached the Quasi-Saint realm.
And Demon Ancestor Luohu and Hongjun were even worse: both were seasoned schemers, and utterly sinister.
The Chaos Spiritual Root, Enlightenment Tea Tree, wouldn't do Dong Wanggong much good. By contrast, the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique and the Yin-Yang Demon God's origin could make up for his shortcomings.
Yang could not exist alone, nor Yin thrive by itself.
If he wanted to become one of the foremost among the Three Thousand Innate Gods, he had to remake his origin and develop the Yin-Yang Great Dao. Only then could he endure for all eternity.
[This emperor chooses the second option: cultivate in seclusion.]
Dong Wanggong decided to remain hidden on Penglai Immortal Island. Innate Spiritual Qi was inexhaustible here, and the island was home to countless spirit herbs and roots. He wouldn't lack cultivation resources.
What was more, Pangu's Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique was an irresistible temptation.
During the Chaos era, Great God Pangu had wielded the Three Thousand Laws and fought the Chaos Demon Gods. With his own strength, he had created the Primordial World and possessed boundless power.
The Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique encompassed all things and contained the Three Thousand Laws. It was wondrously similar to the Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Jade Disk of Creation.
Though Great God Pangu was famed for the Great Dao of Strength, his mastery of the other laws was in no way inferior to that of the Chaos Demon Gods.
[Congratulations, host. You have obtained the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique and the Yin-Yang Demon God's origin.]
The system's bewitchingly sultry voice faded away, and two mysterious orbs of light appeared within Dong Wanggong's True Spirit.
"It's time to refine the Yin-Yang Demon God's origin and cultivate the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique!"
Dong Wanggong's voice was deep, brimming with boundless fighting spirit.
At once!
Billions of miles of Supreme Yang Qi contracted with a roar. The Yin-Yang Demon God's origin fused with Dong Wanggong, shaking all of Penglai Immortal Island.
A phantom of the Yin-Yang Demon God appeared, and Chaos divine patterns were carved into Dong Wanggong's soul. The once-blazing Supreme Yang Law gradually settled into calm.
The Yin-Yang Dao Intent emerged, and the Great Dao's sound echoed endlessly.
Time passed without measure in the Primordial Wilderness.
As he cultivated, Dong Wanggong's spirit wandered through the void. He comprehended the Great Dao, cultivated the Yin-Yang Law, and grasped the Dao Resonance of Strength.
Without realizing it, his origins surpassed those of the Three Pure Ones and rivaled Hongjun's. At last, he crossed the barrier and transformed into a Chaos Demon God, with origins no weaker than Great God Pangu's.
Clearly, the system had played a part in this.
Meanwhile, the Primordial World underwent countless upheavals and transformations.
The Dragon Clan, Phoenix Race, and Qilin Clan plunged into war. Blood stained the skies, and their people were slaughtered almost to the last.
Ancestor Dragon and Candle Dragon died in battle, their bodies nowhere to be found. The sole surviving Dragon Empress, Ying Long, retreated to the East Sea Abyss, where she suppressed the East Sea Eye, cleansed the Tribulation Karma, and bore the Heavenly Dao Shackles.
First Kirin transformed into Qilin Cliff, protecting the remaining members of the Qilin Clan before disappearing into Chaos.
The Phoenix Race suppressed the Buzhou Mountain volcano. Before her death, Yuanfeng laid two giant eggs, but in the end, she failed to be reborn in flames and perished on the East Sea Coast.
Of course, whether these three leaders had left themselves a way back remained unknown.
After the Three Races' struggle for supremacy ended, the War of Dao and Demon began.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun joined forces with Old Ancestor Yangmei, Yin-Yang Ancestor, and Daoist Qiankun to ambush Demon Ancestor Luohu in the Western World.
Demon Ancestor Luohu used the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation and a Heavenly Dao treasure to detonate the Western World's Earth Veins, slaughtering Yin-Yang Ancestor and Daoist Qiankun. Old Ancestor Yangmei escaped into the Primordial Wilderness to seek another path.
At the critical moment, Dao Ancestor Hongjun deployed his Three Corpses Incarnations and defeated Demon Ancestor Luohu once and for all.
In the end, Demon Ancestor Luohu accepted the Heavenly Dao's offer and became an Outer Realm Heavenly Demon. The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation fell into Dao Ancestor Hongjun's hands, while the God-Slaying Spear and Twelve-Petal World-Destroying Black Lotus disappeared without a trace.
As the Dao waned, the Demonic Path waxed; as the Dao waxed, the Demonic Path waned.
From then on, Dao Ancestor Hongjun became the Heavenly Dao's representative and took complete control of the Primordial World.
Time flowed on, fleeting as a white horse glimpsed through a crack.
The Three Thousand Innate Gods gradually awakened to consciousness and emerged into the world. Dong Wanggong, too, finally awoke.
"From Chaos comes Yin and Yang; from Yin and Yang come the Five Elements. Thus, life endures without end."
"After cultivating for so long, it's finally time to emerge."
"Boom..."
The Yin-Yang Law swept across heaven and earth as the Great Dao of Strength flowed on.
Innate Spiritual Qi surged toward Dong Wanggong, and the dense Yin-Yang Law began to transform.
Cracks split open in the void, and Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water appeared.
The East Sea Abyss erupted. Waves surged across an immeasurable stretch of sea, though this was only the tip of the iceberg.
Great Dao Divine Marks appeared out of thin air, and a purple Dao Resonance stained the firmament.
In an instant!
Dong Wanggong stepped out of the clouds, each step bringing forth a lotus as the Great Dao rippled around him.
He wore a Crimson Gold Dao Robe etched with the Yin-Yang Taiji Divine Pattern, its defense peerless and its bearing imposing.
A Purple Gold Divine Crown rested on his head. The might of an Immortal Emperor made all living beings bow before him.
His brows were like swords, his eyes like stars, and starlight seemed to glimmer in them.
Terrifying energy and mist swirled around him. He was strikingly handsome and elegant.
Dong Wanggong had transformed into an Innate Dao Body, taking the form of a young man. He was imposing and remarkably handsome.
"With Peak Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal cultivation, I'm now the strongest of the Three Thousand Innate Gods. Even if the Three Pure Ones joined forces against me, they'd still lose."
"Grand Unity Three Flowers Twelve Petals! Even a mighty figure like Dao Ancestor Hongjun only has nine petals. My origins and comprehension have reached the utmost limit, on par with Great God Pangu."
"The only pity is that, despite having the origins of a Chaos Demon God, my body still can't reach their level. I'll need countless years of tempering."
Dong Wanggong spoke slowly, a trace of regret in his eyes.
Only the flesh and bones of a Chaos Demon God, or cultivation with Pangu's Blood Essence and Pangu Marrow, could strengthen his body further.
Otherwise, even if he broke through to the Quasi-Saint realm, his body would make no further progress.
After all, he had started too high.
Of course, with his current combat strength, he was more than worthy of the title First Under Saint.
"I've just begun to comprehend the Yin-Yang Law, and I've only touched the slightest trace of the Great Dao of Strength. It looks like I'll still have to act cautiously and strive to Prove Dao as soon as possible."
Dong Wanggong gently clenched his fists, shattering space as Chaos Qi Flow ran wild.
Just then,
countless sacred visions appeared in Dong Wanggong's eyes.
Purple Qi Comes from the East for millions of miles. Heavenly Flowers Scatter, and Golden Lotuses Spring from the Earth.
Across the Primordial Wilderness, the Four Seas, the void, and the distant stars, immortal energy rose in a spectacle of splendor.
Suddenly!
A mysterious pressure descended upon the Primordial World. All living beings fell to their knees and bowed their heads. Even the Three Thousand Innate Gods were forced to lower their proud heads.
Dong Wanggong's shoulders sank, and he bent slightly, but he did not kneel.
He lifted his head a little and gazed up at Outer Heaven Chaos.
"Dao Ancestor Hongjun... has he become a Saint?"
