"I've wandered through Primordial Wilderness for countless ages. Only today do I finally know who I am. My True Spirit... has finally awakened!"
Sensing the memories and information surfacing in his mind, Di Jun wore a complicated expression, his gaze somewhat unfocused.
His True Spirit had awakened!
He had once been a Transmigrator from Earth. After arriving in Primordial Wilderness, its plane was simply too exalted, and his True Spirit had fallen into slumber. He had been reborn as Di Jun, who had only just begun to gestate. Now that he had reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, he had finally recovered his past-life memories and understood the events of his former life.
"The Dao Ancestor's third lecture has ended, and he has already joined with the Dao. The Witch-Demon Tribulation is about to begin."
Thinking of the current state of Primordial Wilderness, Di Jun couldn't help the twitch at the corner of his mouth.
As an avid reader of webnovels in his previous life, how could he not have read plenty of Primordial Wilderness stories about Di Jun? He knew all too well about the Witch-Demon Tribulation and how he himself would meet his end.
Heavenly Court would fall. He and Taiyi would both perish, and the Witch Clan would become a thing of the past. The Witch and Demon races would decline, paving the way for the Human Race to become the protagonist of heaven and earth.
"Change things? No. The general course of Primordial Wilderness can't be changed. This is a path already laid out by the Dao Ancestor and Heavenly Dao. If I try to change it, I'll die even sooner."
"Grow stronger and turn the tide? That's even harder. It would take surpassing Heavenly Dao or Hongjun, which is completely impossible. So, I'm doomed?"
Di Jun's expression turned bitter. His vision nearly went black.
Change the course of events and die. Grow stronger and he couldn't do it. What was the point of any of this? He might as well laugh and announce GG.
Damn it!
"Ding! Host's True Spirit detected awakening. System activation commencing."
"Ding! Strongest Dynasty System successfully bound."
"Ding! Main quest activated. Host, please survive the Witch-Demon Tribulation. Completing the quest will grant generous rewards."
Mechanical voices rang out in Di Jun's mind. He froze, and his expression shifted slightly.
A system?
The standard Golden Finger for Transmigrators?
"If I could survive the Witch-Demon Tribulation, would I even need you?"
Seeing the main quest, Di Jun's mouth twitched. At the same time, a thought stirred in his mind.
When the system had just activated, hadn't he sensed a faint ripple deep within his True Spirit?
He closed his eyes slightly and sank his consciousness into his body. Before long, he sensed a seal deep within his True Spirit.
Whoosh!!!
His eyes snapped open, a flash of brilliance passing through them.
This system's level... didn't seem very high.
At least, compared with his current power and cultivation, it seemed rather low.
"You didn't activate when I first transmigrated and give me time to grow. Now you activate when the Witch-Demon Tribulation is about to begin? What use are you? There's no way I can count on the system slowly growing stronger."
"But what if I refine the system and seize its source, then use that source to uncover its mysteries? It's a system, after all. It must have something extraordinary about it."
His eyes brightened, and Di Jun smiled.
Then let's give it a try!
Buzz!!!
With a single thought, the vast magical power within Di Jun surged into motion. His immortal sense became a great net, spreading over the depths of his True Spirit. Rules transformed into Order Divine Prohibitions, sealing heaven and earth and binding everything in place.
As if sensing danger, the system's seal glimmered, then burst into an even brighter radiance. Before it could resist, Di Jun's terrifying power enveloped and subdued it.
A moment later, Di Jun opened his eyes again. He turned his hand over, and a rune appeared and vanished in his palm.
It was the system's core!
Di Jun had directly subdued and refined the system!
"The Great Dao of Dynasty?"
Murmuring the words, Di Jun drew on the wisdom he had gained over countless ages in Primordial Wilderness. One thought after another flashed through his mind. As if he had realized something, his gaze gradually brightened.
He seemed to know what to do now!
"A fragment of the Great Dao of Dynasty, containing the Method of Dynasty. No wonder it's called the Dynasty System. An ordinary Heavenly Court can't escape Destiny or control its own life and death. It can't escape the control of Heavenly Dao and Hongjun."
"But what about a Heavenly Court that's an Imperial Dynasty? Gather its fortune into one, and so long as Heavenly Court endures, its fortune will flourish forever!"
"And what's more, what if it were... a Mythological Imperial Dynasty?"
"Compared with this life in Primordial Wilderness, my experiences and memories from Earth are indeed insignificant. But many of the ideas and things I witnessed are invaluable."
"Mythological Law? A Mythological System? Using the Great Dao of Dynasty as a reference, combined with my own insights and the descriptions I made up in my past life... It might actually be possible!"
Di Jun's emotions gradually surged.
This might not necessarily let him escape his fate, but at least it offered him a way forward, a possible solution.
If he did nothing, he would certainly die. If he tried, there was still a chance. Having lived a second life and set foot in Primordial Wilderness, how could Di Jun have no ambitions of his own? He didn't seek eternal life; he only wished to... live a life of blazing glory!
Only then would this life have been worth living!
"First, I'll comprehend the Great Dao of Dynasty and work out the Method of Dynasty. As for the vague notion of a Mythological Imperial Dynasty, I'll leave it aside for now. One step at a time. You can't get fat in a single bite."
Taking a deep breath and steadying his emotions, Di Jun's expression softened. He slowly closed his eyes, and with a clench of his hand, he put away the fragment of the Great Dao of Dynasty.
Then, let us begin!
Time meant nothing in Primordial Wilderness. In the blink of an eye, countless ages passed; several million years had quietly gone by.
After several million years of effort, Di Jun had fully comprehended the Great Dao of Dynasty. One divine pattern after another took shape in his sea of consciousness, forming innate divine scripts that shone with brilliant golden light and radiated majestic heavenly might.
The Method of Dynasty was complete!
Whoosh!!!
As soon as he opened his eyes, brilliant divine light flashed through them. Countless thoughts raced through Di Jun's mind. He lowered his eyelids and murmured, "The Method of Dynasty is complete. It's time to take the first step!"
Just as he was about to act, he suddenly sensed something. Di Jun looked toward the entrance of the palace and swept his hand through the air. The palace doors rumbled as they slowly opened, and a young man hurried in from outside.
It was Taiyi!
"Elder Brother, how is your cultivation going? East King Duke established the Purple Mansion nearly one Kalpa ago. I've already gathered many powerful figures to our side. If we don't establish a faction soon, I'm afraid it'll be too late."
Taiyi looked at Di Jun, who was seated cross-legged, respectfully bowed, and spoke anxiously.
"East King Duke..."
The man had been appointed Head of Male Immortals by the Dao Ancestor during his first lecture and was said to govern all male immortals in Primordial Wilderness. Apart from the Witch and Demon races, he was the only mighty figure—or perhaps one might say cannon fodder—to perish in the Witch-Demon Tribulation. A thought stirred in Di Jun's mind. He smiled faintly and slowly rose to his feet.
"Then let's establish our faction!"
Di Jun spoke with ringing conviction.
"Yes!"
Taiyi's spirits lifted, and he replied excitedly.
Primordial Wilderness time: One Yan Record: six thousand trillion years One Yuan: one billion three hundred and ninety-nine million six hundred and eighty thousand years One Kalpa is ten thousand eight hundred years; one Yuan is one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred years. One Kalpa-Yuan is the product of those two numbers.
