On the jade couch.
East King Duke battled West Queen Mother; the two had cultivated for a thousand years.
During their Dual Cultivation, West Queen Mother comprehended the Supreme Yin Law, breaking through to the Peak of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm.
As for East King Duke, he perceived the wonders of the Great Dao Yin-Yang Art, elevating his Yin-Yang Law to the Minor Achievement level, multiplying his combat power several times over.
Now, there were still five thousand years until the Second Lecture at Purple Cloud Palace.
Opening his eyes, East King Duke took out a jade pot. Within it, Pangu Marrow shimmered with the light of life, and infinite Dao rhythms swirled around him.
"Five thousand years. This Emperor hopes his Law of Strength can break through!"
"Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique, refine!"
Instantly!
East King Duke consumed all the Pangu Marrow. Vast life force and the Great Dao of Strength surged through his meridians and flesh, ceaselessly tempering his physical body.
Closing his eyes, the World Creation vision emerged within East King Duke's Primordial Spirit.
In the Chaos Era, the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods were born.
Great God Pangu, with the Jade Disk of Creation above his head, the Chaos Green Lotus beneath his feet, and the Pangu Axe in his hand, used his immortal Dao might to battle the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods.
His cultivation had stepped into the Half-step Primordial Great Dao Realm.
Only by World Creation, evolving Chaos into a new world, could one Prove Dao through Strength and attain Dao Eternity.
A bloody war erupted; demon blood stained the Void red.
Great God Pangu, with his own strength, stirred up a terrifying tribulation. Whether it was the Time Demon God Shichen, the Space Demon God Yangmei, the Immortal Dao Demon God, or the Demon Dao Demon God Luohu, all were defeated and fell within Chaos.
Only a wisp of Primordial Spirit escaped, fleeing into the newborn Primordial World.
Within the Void, the giant axe in Great God Pangu's hand split Chaos, evolving the world. Every move shattered space, causing Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water to run rampant.
"Is this the might of the Half-step Chaos Great Dao Realm?"
"Before Great God Pangu, This Emperor's Law of Strength is utterly insignificant. His Great Dao of Strength is the true annihilation of all laws!"
In the depths of his being, East King Duke let out a long sigh.
As the World Creation vision faded, East King Duke opened his eyes, a hint of lingering satisfaction in his gaze.
His spirit roamed the Great Void, awakening to the Great Dao.
It felt like a mere moment, yet five thousand years had passed.
"The Law of Strength has reached Minor Achievement, and the Chaos Demon God Body is also fully perfected. Unless a Saint-level power makes a move, no one can harm This Emperor in the slightest!"
"Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Second Lecture is imminent, but before that, This Emperor should break through to the Quasi-Saint Realm as soon as possible!"
Before the Second Lecture at Purple Cloud Palace, none of the Three Thousand Innate Gods had a method to prove Dao and become a Quasi-Saint.
When East King Duke broke through, it would surely shock everyone.
[Ding, God-Tier Selection Mission refreshed. The host now has two choices.]
[Choice One: Immediately break through to Early-stage Quasi-Saint. Reward: One drop of Pangu's Blood Essence.]
[Choice Two: Break through to Early-stage Quasi-Saint before the Purple Cloud Palace gates, slapping the faces of many petty villains. Reward: Twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls.]
A seductive, mature female voice rang out within East King Duke's Primordial Spirit.
"System, your conscience is truly wicked. Breaking through to Early-stage Quasi-Saint before the Purple Cloud Palace gates—aren't you forcing This Emperor to show off and slap faces?"
"But, I like it! Although This Emperor walks the path of stability, if I don't display the might of This Emperor as an Immortal Emperor, I would seem cowardly and weak!"
"So, This Emperor chooses option two!"
East King Duke said slowly. He chose to break through to Early-stage Quasi-Saint before the Purple Cloud Palace gates.
The effect of Pangu's Blood Essence was not as good as Pangu Marrow, and that single drop of blood wouldn't allow East King Duke's Law of Strength to advance in the slightest. Therefore, it was better to choose the Twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls.
In the Primordial World, there were a total of Thirty-six Sea-Calming Pearls. Every twelve were a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, and twenty-four already possessed the might of a Half-step Innate Supreme Treasure.
During the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, Zhao Gongming of the Intercepting Sect used twelve Sea-Calming Pearls to crush the Heavenly Origin Sect Disciples. Their offensive power was evident, and each Sea-Calming Pearl also contained the power of a small world, extremely profound.
If one could gather all thirty-six, it would be a genuine Innate Supreme Treasure.
[Choice successful. Congratulations, host, for obtaining the Twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls!]
As the system's voice fell, the Twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls landed in East King Duke's hand, shimmering with an exceptionally brilliant, deep light.
"Wife, refine these Twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls carefully. They can become your life-bound treasure to Prove Dao and Become a Saint!"
Hearing this!
West Queen Mother's expression wavered. But when she saw the firm look in East King Duke's eyes, she took the Twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls into her Primordial Spirit and began refining them with gentle mana.

East King Duke's Grand Unity Three Flowers Twelve Petals made his Background and talent unmatched. West Queen Mother, by his side, was far inferior. To keep pace with East King Duke, she had to accept her husband's gifts.
After all, the two had spent a thousand years in Dual Cultivation together.
"Thank you, Husband!"
West Queen Mother kissed East King Duke, and then the two were entangled once more.
A moment later.
Thunder rolled, and the dragon's might was boundless.
West Queen Mother nestled in East King Duke's arms, the two of them stepping on Qiongqi's Dragon Body, heading toward Outside the Chaos.
At the same time.
On the Four Directions' Earth and the Other Shore Starry Sky.
Many Innate Deities shot up into the sky, wielding divine abilities, intending to go to Purple Cloud Palace to Listen to the Dao.
This time, Dao Ancestor Hongjun would lecture on the Path to Quasi-Saint—that was a supreme opportunity, and no living being was willing to miss it.
Of course, the Wu Race was an exception.
Among the Twelve Ancestral Witches, only Houtu could grasp a shred of insight, so she ignored the attempts of Dijiang and the others to stop her and resolutely set off for Purple Cloud Palace to listen to the Dao.
Boundless Chaos, before Purple Cloud Palace.
Shoulder to shoulder, a sea of heads.
The great powers who could reach Purple Cloud Palace were at least at Mid-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal in cultivation.
Figures like the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and Eastern Emperor Taiyi, the top Innate Deities, had reached Peak Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, and even the Ten Great Yao Saints were at Late-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.
The Primordial World's forces were tangled and chaotic, with various great powers banding together for warmth.
But the only one that could truly stand on the stage was probably the Yao Race Heavenly Court. Dijun led hundreds of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals as they descended upon Purple Cloud Palace, their momentum extraordinary.
Even the Three Pure Ones had to yield three points of respect before the Yao Race Heavenly Court.
"Roar roar roar..."
Suddenly, Dragon Roars echoed, howling through the Void.
An overwhelming dragon might surged out from the Chaos, sweeping toward the many great powers at Purple Cloud Palace.
It was Qiongqi!
On the Dragon Head, East King Duke held West Queen Mother's willow waist with his right hand, the Myriad Heavens Celebration Cloud floating above his head, Righteous Qi spreading out, and faint Immortal Music lingering without end.
A Mysterious Light flickered faintly, and Green Lotus Sword Qi trembled.
East King Duke stepped on the Twenty-Four Petal Creation Green Lotus as he descended before Purple Cloud Palace. As for Qiongqi, it tempered its body in the Chaotic Turbulence, evolving Chaos Divine Thunder.
"So East King Duke got there first and took the Twenty-Four Petal Creation Green Lotus, which should have belonged to us Three Pure Ones—this is an Innate Supreme Treasure no less than the Chaos Bell!"
Old Master Taiqing let out a long sigh, staring at the faintly glowing Creation Green Lotus, a trace of unwillingness appearing in his eyes.
Although East King Duke was very strong, seizing another's opportunity was an irreconcilable enmity.
Now, the Three Pure Ones were all at Peak Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, and with Old Master Taiqing's Heaven and Earth Mysterious Exquisite Pagoda protecting them, their combat power might not necessarily be inferior to East King Duke's.
"Ten thousand years—fortunately, East King Duke hasn't broken through to Quasi-Saint, or else we Innate Deities would have no face left. Now we're all at Peak Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, on the same starting line."
"What a pity that a beauty like West Queen Mother was taken by East King Duke. Truly, the Heavenly Dao is unfair!"
"Don't say that. West Queen Mother is already at Peak Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, and we're still at Mid-stage—damn, what trash we are!"
"..."
For a moment, the Innate Deities present showed expressions of shock, resentment, or wariness, all clearly on guard against East King Duke's appearance.
Sensing the unusual emotions, East King Duke remained extremely calm, making no move at all.
Especially when he saw the flames in Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi's eyes, he merely cast a light glance at them, then found a spot and sat cross-legged on the Creation Green Lotus.
"Brother, East King Duke's opportunities are too deep. First, the Dao Ancestor bestowed the Myriad Heavens Celebration Cloud, then he refined the Chaos Gourd at Buzhou Mountain, and now he has the Creation Green Lotus to protect himself."
"How about we find a chance to contact him and probe East King Duke's background?"
Nuwa said slowly, a hint of profound meaning in her eyes.
East King Duke was too mysterious.
But it was precisely this mysterious aura that drew Nuwa's mind, involuntarily stirring in her the thought of having an in-depth exchange with East King Duke to study the Great Dao.
"With the Primordial World's situation in turmoil, how about I, as your elder brother, play matchmaker and have you marry East King Duke? What do you think?"
"I've already declined the Yao Race Heavenly Court's invitation. If East King Duke is willing to form an alliance with us, then we siblings won't have to suffer being caught between the Wu Race and the Yao Race!"
Fuxi looked at Nuwa with interest, and her ears and cheeks instantly flushed peach-red.
Jade-like skin and bones, a beauty that Outshines the Moon and Flowers, Nuwa's breathing quickened, and the rise and fall of her chest became pronounced.
What Fuxi said—she was actually tempted!
