"What? Nuwa has established the Demon Race?"

Ling Xiao was stunned. The system's notification was somewhat beyond his expectations; he hadn't expected that his mere hint to Baize would actually lead Baize to persuade Nuwa to step forward and integrate the Ten Thousand Races.

Looking at it this way, Nuwa and the Demon Race were truly destined; even without his interference, she would still have become entangled with them.

According to the original plot, the reason Nuwa joined the Demon Race was due to the invitations from Di Jun and Tai Yi.

Nuwa and Fuxi were innate divine beings, so it was quite baffling that they could be invited by Di Jun and Tai Yi to join the Demon Race.

Fate, it can only be called fate, Ling Xiao thought, then looked at the three choices.

He dismissed the first option almost without consideration. Running over to offer congratulations just to curry favor with Nuwa—wasn't that the behavior of a total sycophant?

Moreover, he didn't want to get involved with the Demon Race; if he rushed over to congratulate them, wouldn't that invisibly create a connection?

As for the third option, it was even more ridiculous. Who would walk straight into the line of fire?

He hadn't even been willing to establish the Demon Race when Baize came to ask him, so why would he run over to snatch it now? Was he brain-damaged?

He was desperate for someone else to take the Demon Race off his hands; he was dodging it as fast as he could.

Go and snatch it?

Although the reward was decent—a Chaos Spirit Treasure—it still couldn't move Ling Xiao.

If it were a Chaos Supreme Treasure, perhaps I could consider it for a fleeting moment, Ling Xiao thought, and decisively chose the second option.

Hmm... the second option it was.

"Let me see what kind of law fragment this is..."

Ling Xiao accepted the reward and absorbed the law fragment. Soon, a look of shock appeared in his eyes, and his mind was shaken.

"The Law of World!?"

He hadn't expected that the random law fragment rewarded by the system would actually be the Law of World.

Among the three thousand Great Dao laws, some were strong and others weak.

The Law of World absolutely belonged to the top-tier Great Dao laws; those that could surpass it could be counted on one's fingers.

Perhaps only the ethereal and elusive laws, such as Fate or Causality, could firmly suppress the Law of World.

This was because the Law of World was not a simple, singular law; it contained a fusion of many others, including Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Yin-Yang, and even Space and Time.

The Law of World encompassed all the fundamental laws required for a complete world.

It was like a grand hodgepodge, all-encompassing. Its power was beyond doubt, but it was equally difficult to comprehend and cultivate.

If an ordinary person lacked the opportunity, they could exhaust their entire life and endless years without ever comprehending the Law of World.

However, now that he possessed this fragment of the Law of World, he could take a shortcut.

"First, gain entry into the hall, then slowly comprehend and cultivate it..."

Ling Xiao made up his mind and sank his consciousness into the law fragment. Suddenly, he felt as if he were standing in a vast, boundless world.

Before his eyes, countless rays of law-light resembled a web, filled with profound mystery.

"The foundation of the Law of World requires a portion of the Law of Space for support—to give birth to space, and with spatial barriers, only then is it the initial form of a world."

"It is just like building a house; you need the surrounding walls, as well as the foundation and the roof, to form a three-dimensional state. Only then is it the basic structure of a house..."

At this very moment, Ling Xiao was immersed in his comprehension. As the fragment of the Law of World was consumed, his understanding of it grew increasingly profound.

Because he was comprehending the Law of World, his original Law of Space was also advancing. Ling Xiao sat cross-legged in the treasure hall, as if situated in the endless void, with terrifying spatial power surging around his body.

Just as Ling Xiao was quietly cultivating, the Primordial Land was no longer peaceful.

A grand, vast, and ethereal voice resonated throughout the heavens and earth of the Primordial Land.

"Heavenly Dao above, today I, Nuwa, establish the Demon Race. All grass and wood spirits, those born of moisture or eggs, and those with fur or horns, all fall into this category."

"I hereby establish the Demon Sect, and I am the Sect Leader of the Demon Sect. All who belong to this category may enter my sect and receive my protection!"

"Rumble!"

The endless void shifted and changed; auspicious clouds gathered, and a golden river rolled forth, spanning the space between heaven and earth.

At this moment, a terrifying fluctuation spread across the Primordial Land. Billions of living beings felt it in their hearts, all looking up at the golden river above the void.

Heavenly Dao Merit!

Mount Buzhou.

Nuwa, Kunpeng, Fuxi, Baize, and a host of other great powers stood in succession, all gazing excitedly at the vast Heavenly Dao Merit in the sky.

After nearly a thousand years of planning, the Ten Thousand Races had finally integrated into one. From this day forward, they shared a common race name: Demon.

Initially, some great powers suggested that Nuwa take the opportunity to establish a Demon Court, but Nuwa remembered the Purple Heaven Palace and Hongjun's intention to establish a Heavenly Court.

The Saint had not told her to establish a Heavenly Court, and she dared not do so casually, so she took a step back and established the Demon Sect based on the Demon Race.

Nuwa became the Sect Leader of the Demon Sect, while Kunpeng and Fuxi became the Deputy Sect Leaders. As for the ten great demons—Baize, Jimeng, Jiuying, Guiche, and others—they were appointed as the Ten Great Protectors of the Demon Sect.

Several pillars of mysterious yellow light shot down from the golden river in the void. Nuwa, Kunpeng, Fuxi, Baize, and the other ten great demons, along with many other Demon Race powers, were all bestowed with merit.

The one who received the most was naturally Nuwa. The vast merit added to her body caused her cultivation and Dao techniques to advance as well.

Countless great demons traversed the void, whistling and galloping as they rushed toward Mount Buzhou.

Over these tens of thousands of years, they had been suppressed by the Witch Clan to the point where they could not even lift their heads; now that they finally had an organization, they naturally rushed over to seek protection.

The Primordial World was thoroughly shaken.

Many great powers had not expected that Nuwa would suddenly establish the Demon Race, integrating the billions of races of the Primordial World together.

Furthermore, vast Heavenly Dao Merit had descended; the Sages had once mentioned that there were two methods to achieve Sainthood: one was to sever the Three Corpses, and the second was through great merit.

They had not expected that establishing the Demon Race would yield such immense merit.

"Nuwa has united the ten thousand races to establish the Demon Race; this move is surely to oppose the Witch Clan!"

"Nuwa was already a Quasi-Sage, and now that she has absorbed so much Heavenly Dao Merit, who in the current Primordial World is her match, aside from the Sages? The days of the Witch Clan are likely not going to be so easy anymore!"

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa has established the Demon Sect; we should go and offer our congratulations..."

At the same time.

Mount Yujing.

The former dojo of Hongjun.

At this moment, Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian were cultivating; after being hunted by the Twelve Ancestral Witches, they had hidden themselves here.

Feeling the Dao sound of Nuwa in the dark, their expressions changed instantly.

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa has established the Demon Sect, and the Heavenly Dao has actually bestowed such vast great merit." Laozi gazed into the endless void, speaking with a hint of envy.

"Nuwa's cultivation level likely already surpasses our own." Yuanshi Tianzun said with a solemn expression.

With his Pangu orthodox bloodline stirred once more, his pride could not bear to see such a thing happen.

"Heh, establishing the Demon Race and creating the Demon Sect—this Heavenly Dao Merit is not easy to take; doing so means having to face the onslaught of the Witch Clan."

Laozi said with a faint smile; having frequently dealt with the Twelve Ancestral Witches, he naturally knew that the Ancestral Witches were not so easy to handle.

"Let us go. Fellow Daoist Nuwa has established a sect; for such a major event, we must naturally go and offer our congratulations!"
