"The Mythological Law suited to you is called the Mythical Race Law."
"It takes your race as its core and its source. Expand your race, extend its lineage, strengthen its bloodline, and raise the purity of its blood."
"In other words, Return to Origin: continually purify and strengthen your own bloodline. As your bloodline improves, not only will your cultivation speed increase, but your innate talent will improve as well, making you stronger."
"One person must take charge and serve as the source, gathering the race's origin into himself and leading the race to grow stronger. This creates a cycle in which each side complements the other."
"This law is also the Mythical Totem Law, and serves as the preliminary cultivation for it. Once Ancestor Dragon, Ancestor Phoenix, and Ancestor Qilin return to life, the Mythical Totem Law can be fully opened. When the three of them are revived, you can ask them about it."
"You need not dwell on it or think too much. Simply help your races grow stronger, and help your clans improve and strengthen their bloodlines. That is enough. As for the rest, wait until Ancestor Dragon, Ancestor Phoenix, and Ancestor Qilin return to life. For now, remain hidden behind the scenes and serve as My Hidden Pieces."
Di Jun's voice was calm, every word like the Celestial Pivot, every sentence filled with profound meaning. Each word seemed to reveal the truths of the Great Dao, and each utterance appeared to embody the Dao. As the words reached their ears, countless principles unfolded and strands of Dao Rhyme spread out, as though all the mysteries within each character had been laid bare before their eyes.
"The Mythical Race! The Mythical Totem!"
"Purify our bloodlines? Right! Why hadn't I thought of that before? Strengthening our bloodlines can naturally improve our cultivation. Bloodlines are the core of our races, so why seek a distant solution when the answer is right before us?"
"Is the Mythical Totem Law connected to Elder Brother? Bloodline... Totem... Elder Brother..."
After listening to Di Jun, the three of them stood stunned for a long while before finally coming to their senses as if waking from a dream. Their eyes shone brightly as countless thoughts and ideas raced through their minds. All three felt their hearts surge, and they had begun to suspect that the Mythological Law was connected to their Elder Brother.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for bestowing this law."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for bestowing this law."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for bestowing this law."
Candle Dragon, Yuanfeng, and Ink Qilin bowed deeply to Di Jun, thanking him from the bottom of their hearts.
Since the Dragon-Han Tribulation ended, their three clans had begun to decline, and they had lost their way. Their existence had been little different from muddling through life. Now, Di Jun had shown them a path forward and given them limitless possibilities. How could they not be grateful to him?
"There is no need for such formalities. If I need anything from you, I will let you know. Until then, stay hidden and do everything you can to strengthen your respective clans. Do not expose yourselves."
"Remember, the day the three clans return to the Primordial Wilderness will mark the beginning of the Great Era. What position your clans will hold in this new age will depend on your own fortunes."
Before his voice had even faded, Di Jun's figure had vanished. Only his mighty, majestic voice remained, rolling like thunder throughout the entire Minor World.
"A new age..."
The three of them were stirred by the thought. Reflecting on Di Jun's mystery and the Mythological Law, they could not help but feel an endless swell of emotion. Their eyes blazed with ambition and determination. "He's playing a grand game..."
And perhaps they, too, could claim a small place on this board?
Candle Dragon and the others felt their excitement rising. They exchanged glances, and their expressions suddenly turned somewhat odd.
Back during the Dragon-Han Tribulation, their three clans had been bitter enemies, locked in a fight to the death. Now they had suddenly become allies?
Truly, fate played strange tricks.
"Go and carry out what His Majesty told us. Remember, if anyone exposes His Majesty's plans, I'll make sure he regrets it, even if His Majesty says nothing."
Candle Dragon spoke in a low voice.
"Keep your own clan in line. Since the Dragon-Han Tribulation, the Dragon Clan has been the most active of the three. The Kirin Clan has stayed in the Endless Void without showing itself, while my Phoenix Clan guards the Undying Volcano. You're going to lecture us? Hah."
Yuanfeng scoffed. Ink Qilin chuckled softly.
"..."
Candle Dragon.
He was at a loss for words, unable to refute her.
There was no helping it. The Dragon Clan was lecherous and left offspring everywhere. It seemed they really would have to be careful.
Heavenly Realm, Heavenly Emperor Palace.
Returning to himself, Di Jun opened his eyes and looked west. His gaze crossed boundless distances, seeming to fall upon the western lands of the Primordial Continent. After a moment's thought, he furrowed his brow and looked away.
"Never mind. I won't approach Luo Hu for now. He's entangled too deeply with Hongjun, and Hongjun's reputation as the Primordial Wilderness's greatest boss and schemer is no joke. There's no guarantee Luo Hu isn't one of Hongjun's pieces, too. My wings aren't fully grown yet. Better to be cautious."
Di Jun exhaled and thought to himself.
Hongjun's cunning and skill at scheming had been clear ever since the Dragon-Han Tribulation. He had also had a hand in the Witch-Demon Tribulation and the God-Sealing Tribulation. There was no doubt about his capabilities. No matter how wary Di Jun was of him, it could never be excessive.
"With insights from the three clans, deducing the Mythological Cultivation System should be much easier. I've already had a few ideas. Let's see whether they work."
After a flurry of thoughts, Di Jun slowly closed his eyes and began deducing the Mythological Cultivation System once more.
In an instant, the Heavenly Emperor Palace fell quiet again. Only obscure currents of energy flowed through it, carrying a deep and unfathomable power. The atmosphere was solemn and exalted, as though it held the origin of everything and all its mysteries.
Meanwhile, in the Purple Mansion, at Donghua Palace.
Boom!!!
A terrifying aura erupted from the main hall of Donghua Palace. In an instant, boundless azure light poured down, and streams of purple qi surged through the air. The firmament seemed to churn as brilliant radiance rose, while the Great Dao appeared in one manifestation after another, shaking the heavens.
In the next instant, all the surrounding auras and strange phenomena receded like a tide.
"Quasi-Saint Middle Stage!"
East King Duke suddenly opened his eyes. Feeling the power within him, he smiled with delight, but his expression quickly darkened.
"Di Jun! Heavenly Court! Hah. Just wait. Just wait. Soon, I'll make you realize the price you'll pay for underestimating me. I paid so much to break through—how could I possibly gain nothing in return?"
A shadow of malice appeared in his eyes. East King Duke took a deep breath, and the memory of their previous battle surfaced in his mind. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little timid and uneasy.
His cultivation had improved greatly, but what about Di Jun?
Di Jun had already been unfathomable before. How could he have failed to improve since then?
"Still not enough. Still not enough."
"My cultivation is still insufficient, and the Purple Mansion hasn't recovered enough either. Looks like I'll have to seek them out again..."
"If they want me as a chess piece, they'll have to offer me enough benefits."
His eyes flickered. East King Duke lowered his eyelids and murmured to himself.
Hum!!!
With a thought, East King Duke waved his hand. A streak of divine light shot into the void and disappeared. Watching it vanish, he closed his eyes and resumed cultivating.
Under the surface, undercurrents swirled.
The winds were rising, and the clouds were gathering.
As time passed, the atmosphere in the Primordial Wilderness did not ease. Instead, it grew more subtle and strange. The Karmic Tribulation Qi gathering in the heavens and earth grew denser by the day, making all living beings uneasy. It was as if a gray mist had settled over their minds, leaving even their thoughts faintly restless.
And so, time flew by. In the blink of an eye, tens of millions of years passed.
Then, suddenly, a dramatic change occurred.
As if sensing something in the unseen depths, as if drawn by a thread of Vital Energy, one Primordial Great Power after another slowly opened their eyes. Countless gazes turned toward the depths of the Four Seas.
