Planning the Final Battle of the Witch-Demon War and Refining the Chaos Restrictions with All His Might

Lingyun Peak, Xuandu Cave Mansion.

Xuandu stood alone atop the peak, his green robes fluttering slightly, his gaze calmly fixed on the golden glow of merit in the direction of the Netherworld.

Houtu sainthood, established the Reincarnation, and awakened the Earth Dao...

All of this was within his expectations.

" Earth Dao Sage..."

Xuandu muttered to himself, a slow smile creeping onto his lips:

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Houtu."

He could clearly sense that at the moment Reincarnation was established, the Great Wilderness Law System underwent subtle changes.

The Heaven Earth Human Three Daos finally began to truly coexist.

The absolute dominance of Heavenly Dao was thus broken.

This is a good thing for the Great Wilderness World, and for Xuandu... it's an incredible opportunity!

"In that case..."

Xuandu muttered to himself, a cold smile slowly curving his lips:

" The Heavenly Dao is restrained by the Earth Dao, Dao Ancestor Hongjun's vision is largely diverted, so I..."

"That will give us more time."

The voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable certainty.

A century-long plan, proceeding step by step.

He deposed Laozi, beheaded Nuwa, Gather Fortune, awakened humanity, and now, with the help of Houtu, he is accelerating the revival of the Earth Dao...

All of this was not for the purpose of dominating the Great Wilderness, nor for surpassing Saints.

It was to buy time!

Hongjun Body Merged with Heavenly Dao, overlooking the Great Wilderness for billions of years. Within his sight, no variable could escape his notice.

If the Heavenly Dao is supreme and Hongjun's will covers all the heavens, then even if Xuandu's fortune is abundant and his martial arts are strong, he is nothing more than a slightly larger piece on the chessboard. His life, death, honor, and disgrace are all in the hands of the Dao Ancestor.

But things are different now.

The Earth Dao awakens, Reincarnation is established, Houtu wields power over the Nine Netherworlds, gaining the Great Dao Recognition and becoming Earth Dao Sage.

The Heaven Earth Human Three Daos are beginning to coexist, the Primordial Law Foundation is complete, and the Heavenly Dao can no longer suppress everything as recklessly as before.

As the Dao Ancestor, Hongjun needed to maintain the balance among the three paths and needed to sit in the Purple Heaven Palace to regulate the overall situation.

His vision, his calculations, his energy... will inevitably be largely consumed by the various variables brought about by the revival of the Earth Dao.

And this is exactly the time Xuandu needs.

" The Zenith Heaven First Heaven is ultimately not enough."

Xuandu's gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at his palm.

There, the phantom of the Chaos Bead quietly appeared.

The crack that pierced through the pearl was still clearly visible, but the Chaos Dao Rhyme flowing within it had already subtly merged with his martial arts origin.

Of the forty-nine Chaos Restriction, he had only refined two.

Too slow.

"It must be done before the Witch-Demon War..."

A cold glint flashed in Xuandu's eyes:

"Completely refine this pearl!"

The Witch-Demon Tribulation are nearing their end.

Houtu Merged with Samsara, Du Tian Divine Fiend Great Array was incomplete, leaving the Witch Clan without its greatest reliance.

Di Jun Taiyi will not let this opportunity slip by.

The demon race will surely come out in full force, Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array Fully Open, determined to annihilate the Witch Clan in one fell swoop and establish themselves as the Great Wilderness Overlord.

This battle... marked the end of the Great Tribulation and the beginning of a reshaping of the Great Wilderness world's order.

At that time, the Calamity Qi will be at its strongest, the Heavenly Secret will be in complete chaos, all the Saints will be able to intervene, and all Karma will be settled.

Yuanshi, Jieyin Zhunti, Nuwa, Laozi... these Sage have a blood feud with him will surely join forces at that moment to lay a trap!

" The Chaos Bead..."

Xuandu slowly closed his five fingers, grasping the Chaos Phantoms into his palm:

"This treasure contains Chaos World, capable of concealing Heavenly Secret and obscuring the Great Dao, and also contains the boundless True Meaning of the Chaos Law..."

"If I can completely refine it before the final battle of the Great Calamity, with the power of this pearl, I might be able to..."

He paused, then a sudden burst of Chaos Radiance flashed in his eyes:

"To stand against Saints!"

With this in mind, Xuandu no longer hesitated.

He took a step forward, his figure as swift as lightning, and instantly returned to the depths of the cave.

Inside the cave, Chaos Energy Flow flowed down like countless ribbons, its fluctuations in laws profound and indescribable.

Xuandu sat cross-legged on the futon, his green robes fluttering slightly, Hunyuan Dao Rhyme flowed naturally, enveloping the entire cave in absolute tranquility.

He slowly closed his eyes.

Deep within the Purple Mansion, the Chaos Color Martial Dao Origin rune shone brightly.

Around the runes, the newly integrated Blood God Son Method, Devour Divine Ability, and even the Fortune Blessing of the Jie Sect Myriad Immortals and Myriad Human Race, all mingled and rotated with the Martial Dao True Meaning, evolving into an unprecedentedly profound foundation.

"Buzz..."

Xuandu's thoughts stirred slightly.

Between the eyebrows, in the Purple Mansion, the Chaos Bead True Body slowly manifested.

The bead is about the size of a fist, with a Chaos color. Forty-nine Restriction Patterns are faintly visible on its surface, exuding the Primal Dao Rhyme that existed before the World Creation.

Within the crack on the pearl, Chaos Light flowed slowly like a thin stream, barely maintaining its origin.

"Using the Devour Divine Ability as a blade, the Chaos Light as a bridge, and the Hunyuan Dao Rhyme as a foundation..."

Xuandu muttered to himself, his aura suddenly erupting:

"This time, I will refine this treasure in one fell swoop!"

The words had barely left his mouth.

"Laugh!"

A wisp of Devouring Force, sharp to the extreme yet as faint as a hair, quietly emerged from the depths of his Martial Dao Rune, like an invisible tentacle, and slowly disappeared into the third restriction of the Chaos Bead.

The Devour Divine Ability can devour all things and absorb all laws.

"Click..."

A soft yet distinct cracking sound echoed deep within the Purple Mansion.

The light of the third Chaos Restriction dimmed slightly!

Although the dimness was extremely faint, it resembled a candle flame flickering gently in the wind.

Xuandu could clearly sense that the foundation of that restriction... had been devoured, creating a gap!

"Continue!"

Xuandu made up his mind and held nothing back.

"Boom!"

The vast and boundless Hunyuan Dao Rhyme surged towards the Chaos Bead like Breaching Dam Flood!

Chaos Light burst forth from his palm, like a warm current, flowing into the cracks in the bead, stabilizing its origin and helping it resist the impact of the Devouring Force.

The Devour Divine Ability Power transformed into billions of tiny tentacles, frantically gnawing at every inch of the third restriction's structure!

"Click... click... click..."

The sound of shattering rang out one after another.

The radiance of the third barrier dimmed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!

In less than half a day.

"Buzz!"

The third restriction... completely refined!

The Chaos Bead trembled slightly, its radiance intensified, and the Chaos Dao Rhyme contained within became clearer, resonating more closely with the origin of Xuandu martial arts.

"Continue!"

Xuandu's eyes flashed sharply, and his Devouring Force continued unabated as he fiercely pounced on the fourth restriction!

Time flowed silently deep within the cave.

One day.

Two days.

Three days.
