Why was that? Because aside from the Three Pure Ones, no one in the Primordial World possessed such extraordinary talent.
In truth, even the Three Pure Ones lacked sufficient talent. However, each of them possessed ten percent of Creation Merit, making up for that deficiency and allowing them to cultivate this technique.
Yet even though the Three Pure Ones could master it, they would not. They would never consider their own techniques inferior to Lady Nuwa's.
Those capable of mastering it would not practice it, so naturally, no one in the Primordial World could cultivate this technique.
Therefore, in theory, the strongest way to cultivate the Creation Scripture could only begin from the fourth step—condensing an Innate Gods and Devils incarnation.
Someone like Jiang Yuan, who directly began from the final step, was truly defying the heavens. If word got out, even Sages would take notice and marvel at it.
For throughout the entire Primordial World, only the Three Pure Ones, due to each possessing ten percent of Creation Merit, dared claim they had a one-hundred-percent chance of becoming Sages.
As for the rest, even Lady Nuwa, who had already become a Sage, had not possessed such confidence before obtaining the Grandmist Purple Qi.
Moreover, even Sages remained Innate Divine Beings in terms of their life level. They had not transformed into the more perfect Chaos Demon Gods.
Yet according to Jiang Yuan's cultivation path, not only did it point directly toward the Hunyuan Realm, but even his life level was beginning to transform toward that of a Chaos Demon God.
How should one put it? Transforming into a Chaos Demon God was even harder than becoming a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.
As the saying went, a Chaos Demon God would certainly become a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal, but a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal might not necessarily transform into a Chaos Demon God. That alone showed which was more difficult.
Jiang Yuan's cultivation method gave him a chance to transform into a Chaos Demon God. How could that fail to draw a Sage's attention and amazement?
This was true defiance of the heavens, unique in all the Primordial World.
At this point, a question arose.
Since cultivating the Creation Scripture from the final step was so difficult that theoretically no one could succeed, why had Lady Nuwa not warned Jiang Yuan after seeing him cultivate this way? Why had she encouraged him instead?
The reason was simple: Lady Nuwa had seen a trace of the possibility of success in Jiang Yuan.
This did not mean Lady Nuwa had discovered the Creation Jade Disk hidden within Jiang Yuan. Rather, she had seen the future.
In her vision, as time passed, more and more Merit gathered upon Jiang Yuan, nearly filling his future.
With so much Merit, even if Jiang Yuan's talent proved insufficient, he would most likely be able to complete the final step of the Creation Scripture solely by refining it.
That was why Lady Nuwa had not stopped Jiang Yuan from cultivating this way. Instead, she had guided him and sent him to the Heavenly Court to seek assistance.
Of course, Lady Nuwa had also considered the possibility that Jiang Yuan might fail. But failure was simply failure. At worst, he would be unable to break through; he would not die.
It was like hitting a wall. He would merely need to face reality, abandon this method of cultivation, and return to recultivate the Creation Scripture properly in its normal order.
If he succeeded, everyone would be happy. If he failed, he would only have wasted some time before turning back and recultivating.
The price was so negligible that it was practically nothing. Since that was the case, why would Lady Nuwa play the villain and prevent Jiang Yuan from taking a gamble?
What harm was there in letting him try? What if he succeeded?
Even if he failed, the lesson would make him put away his rebellious streak and obediently follow his master's arrangements from then on.
Whether he succeeded or failed, it would benefit Lady Nuwa. She had even less reason to dissuade him.
"Even if I don't know how powerful Chaos Demon Gods are yet, it doesn't matter. As long as I continue growing stronger, I'll learn sooner or later."
Jiang Yuan's imagination was limited. He could not imagine just how powerful Chaos Demon Gods, beings stronger than Innate Divine Beings, truly were. But he knew that as long as he continued growing stronger, he would eventually transform into a Chaos Demon God.
Then, he would naturally learn just how powerful Chaos Demon Gods were.
Skipping the first four steps and directly beginning the Creation Scripture from its final step was a path Jiang Yuan had chosen for himself. How could he not understand its difficulty?
Yet even so, he did not regret it. He had the Creation Jade Disk and an endless supply of Merit. With such overwhelming advantages, of course he would choose the strongest path.
Otherwise, was he supposed to squeeze into the same lane as everyone else? Wouldn't that squander all his advantages? It was like being born into the top tier of the second generation, only to go compete with ordinary people. Wouldn't that be completely insane?
The facts also proved that Jiang Yuan had chosen correctly. If he had not cultivated this way, how could he, while merely in the Heavenly Immortal realm, possess the ability to freely transform into any Innate True Spirit?
Do not underestimate this ability. It meant that as long as Jiang Yuan's opponent was an Innate True Spirit, he only needed one glance to replicate all of their abilities.
And that was not even the most astonishing part. If the two sides knew each other well enough, Jiang Yuan could even replace them without anyone noticing, leaving no one able to detect anything amiss.
Was that not terrifying enough?
Following the normal steps to cultivate the Creation Scripture, one would need to reach Creation Daluo before gaining this ability. Yet Jiang Yuan possessed it while still only a Heavenly Immortal, putting him ahead by who knew how much.
After fully adapting to the power of the Heavenly Immortal realm, Jiang Yuan withdrew his Innate Divine Being Dharma Image and continued cultivating.
He had said before that during this seclusion, he would condense all seven Innate Divine Being Dharma Images in one go. He had only condensed one so far, with six remaining. Naturally, he had to continue his seclusion.
After the Emperor Xi Dharma Image came the Ancestral Dragon Dharma Image.
Jiang Yuan was exceptionally well prepared for this. With the help of the Nine Sons' Essence Blood, the Nine Sons Incarnation had long since reached completion. Now, to condense the Ancestral Dragon Dharma Image, he only needed to fuse them into one.
It was so simple that Jiang Yuan could accomplish it with his talent alone, without activating the Creation Jade Disk. Still, to guard against any accidents, he activated the Creation Jade Disk.
Boom!
The Nine Sons of the Ancestral Dragon manifested one after another, circling continuously around Jiang Yuan. Then, drawn by an inexplicable force, they suddenly fused together and transformed into a supremely divine and sacred Great Dao Divine Fetus.
The Ancestral Dragon Dharma Image was being nurtured within it.
Jiang Yuan opened his mouth and took a fierce gulp of Three Lights Divine Water. In the next instant, the power of creation surged forth, shattering the Great Dao Divine Fetus. The Ancestral Dragon Dharma Image emerged with the wind and manifested behind Jiang Yuan.
Roar—
A majestic dragon's roar rang out and spread across the entire East Sea, terrifying countless dragon descendants until they trembled uncontrollably. They could not help but prostrate themselves and worship.
The more powerful members of the Dragon Race were unaffected. However, the Ancestral Dragon's might contained within that roar left them bewildered and uncertain. They had no idea what had happened for the Ancestral Dragon's roar to echo through the East Sea once more.
"Could some treasure related to Father Emperor have appeared?"
The Dragon Emperor frowned and released his divine sense to search the entire East Sea, yet found nothing. Of course he found nothing. Jiang Yuan was cultivating in seclusion within the Sacred Temple, concealing all heavenly secrets. How could outsiders possibly peer inside?
Jiang Yuan knew nothing of the changes outside. After condensing the Ancestral Dragon Dharma Image, he began condensing the Savage Dragon Dharma Form. This, too, was an Ancestral Dragon, but not the Ancestral Dragon of the Primordial World—it was the Ancestral Dragon of the Fierce Beasts.
The process was identical to condensing the Ancestral Dragon Dharma Image, but at the moment of success, an accident occurred.
