Big brother left behind the Chaos Pearl and the Nine-Turn Profound Origin Technique before leaving Chu Yi.

[Ding! Heaven and Earth have just opened. Please make a choice.]

[Choice one: Emerge immediately. Reward: three complete Laws.]

[Choice two: Continue to lay low and stay hidden until the end of time. Reward: ten thousand years of cultivation.]

Hearing the system's voice, Chu Yi recovered from his grief.

Three complete Laws?

Adding those to the three he already possessed, he would be able to master six Laws in total.

As for the second choice... ten thousand years of cultivation...

Brother System, playing a joke like this isn't funny.

What use is ten thousand years of cultivation?

At the dawn of the Primordial World, time was the least valuable thing in existence.

When the great beings went into seclusion, they started by counting in epochs.

Before the world was opened, I was timid and cautious, terrified that I would be targeted by those Chaos God-Demons the moment I emerged! But now that the world is open... the remaining God-Demons have already been crippled by big brother, so what do I have to fear?!

Therefore, I choose...

To emerge!

Chu Yi moved his mind, and the aura around him surged violently.

Boom!

Beyond the heavens, a powerful ripple emanated from atop an Azure Lotus.

The entire world trembled because of it.

The next moment, the Azure Lotus disintegrated and vanished into the Chaos beyond the heavens, leaving behind only a spherical embryo.

Then, cracks began to appear on the surface of the embryo...

A tall, upright figure slowly stepped out from within.

He had a well-proportioned physique with flawless muscle definition. His face was masculine yet handsome; back before he transmigrated, he definitely would have been able to charm thousands of young girls!

The aura he exuded was formidable.

Having mastered three complete Laws, refined numerous Origin Fragments, and been imbued with the merit of opening the heavens, he was at the eighth level of the Golden Immortal of Primordial Origin.

"Only the eighth level of the Golden Immortal of Primordial Origin?"

Chu Yi frowned.

To be honest, he felt a bit disappointed, but... it was enough.

At the very least, in this newly opened Primordial World, he was undoubtedly invincible!

The God-Demons who had fled were all damaged at their source, and furthermore, they had all severed their three corpses... with Chu Yi's cultivation at the eighth level of the Golden Immortal of Primordial Origin, he could absolutely crush them.

Moreover, with two Chaos Supreme Treasures in his hands, there would be no surprises.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Innate Law of Metal, the Innate Law of Water, and the Innate Law of Wood!]

"With this, the Innate Law of Five Elements is complete. Brother System, you're reliable."

The Innate Law of Five Elements only ranked in the upper-middle tier among the three thousand Laws.

However, since the five elements generated and restrained one another, using all five together would allow them to rank among the very best.

Big brother entrusted the Primordial World to me before he left, so I cannot let him down.

Chu Yi planned silently.

The Primordial World would eventually be ruled by the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun.

The period of the Investiture of the Gods was still acceptable, but especially during the Journey to the West... by that time, the hundred races had withered... and it was difficult for the Primordial World to produce another powerhouse.

Even Sun Wukong, who had excellent aptitude, was ruined by the West.

Hongjun stood alone at the top, while the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and the Two Sages of the West were merely his foils... the once-great Primordial World had headed toward decline.

He could not let things follow the path arranged by this brat Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao.

These matters can be plotted slowly; for now, I should focus on what comes next. Chu Yi thought rapidly.

After the opening of the heavens, the corpses, origins, and baleful energy of the three thousand Chaos God-Demons would transform into the fierce beasts of the Primordial World.

These beasts would slaughter one another and ravage the Primordial land, leading to the Beast Tribulation that followed the opening of the heavens.

These beasts were too cruel... there was no need to show them mercy.

The beasts are not an urgent matter; the innate sacred beings will naturally join forces to deal with them when the time comes. Right now, the most important thing is to keep an eye on the Three Pure Ones.

The Three Pure Ones were formed from big brother's primordial spirit, which makes them equivalent to big brother's sons... that makes them my nephews. I absolutely cannot let my nephews walk the path of severing the three corpses.

[Ding! Detected that the host has emerged. Please make a choice.]

[Option 1: Host travels to the Primordial World, establishes a sect, becomes an ancestor, and enlightens all living beings. Reward: 10,000 years of cultivation.] [Option 2: Establish a cave dwelling and grand hall in the Chaos outside the heavens. Reward: One complete Law.]

No... another 10,000 years of cultivation?

Damn!

Brother System... are you serious?

You are forcing me to pick the first option!

Chu Yi grumbled.

After the opening of the heavens, the world has just stabilized, and the Heavenly Dao should be about to be born. It is truly not suitable to enter the Primordial World at this time, lest I be influenced by the Heavenly Dao.

Hmm, I will open a grand hall in the Chaos outside the heavens first.

The heavens and earth had just separated, and the land was murky and chaotic.

Although the Primordial Continent had established Yin-Yang and possessed the powers of space, time, and the five elements...

The corpses of the Three Thousand God-Demons, whom Pangu had slain, had all fallen upon the Primordial Continent.

Consequently, the land was permeated with soaring baleful energy.

As time passed, the fierce baleful energy and the corpses of those God-Demons gave birth to ferocious beasts!

These ferocious beasts were incomparably savage, devouring one another to increase their strength.

Ten thousand years later, the number of ferocious beasts reached hundreds of millions.

They wantonly destroyed the Primordial land and its mountain ranges, reaching a near-peak of devastation.

It is said that before the birth of Chaos, there was a period known as the Primordial Beginning.

The Great Dao was born from this Primordial Beginning.

Since Pangu opened the heavens, the Great Dao had manifested, evolving the acquired five elements and the Yin-Yang duality, giving all things their opposites.

The Great Dao harmonized with the will of the Primordial World, and through invisible operation, slowly formed an order to govern the Primordial World.

But no matter how the Great Dao evolved, it could never fully dominate the Primordial World... and so it gradually lost something.

Thus...

The Great Dao numbers fifty, the Heavenly Dao utilizes forty-nine, leaving one to escape.

The will of the Primordial World... the Heavenly Dao was born.

From then on, the Heavenly Dao began to exert its power, influencing all living beings in the Primordial World.

The Slaughter God-Demon's physical body had been destroyed, and he wandered endlessly through the Chaos outside the heavens, searching for Origin Fragments to re-condense his body and restore his origin.

He had indeed found some Origin Fragments of the God-Demons.

For instance, the Destruction Origin Fragment of the Destruction God-Demon, and the Origin Fragment of the Anger God-Demon.

I wonder if that little embryo has been born yet... If that brat were born and ran into me, what chance would I have of survival? Secluding myself in Chaos is too dangerous; I might as well flee into the Primordial World...

With a flicker of thought, he vanished from where he stood.

In the far west of the Primordial Continent, there was a mountain range that stretched on without end...

This mountain was known as Mount Sumeru.

The Slaughter God-Demon wandered the Primordial World for a long time before finally choosing to settle here.

Hmm, the baleful energy on Mount Sumeru was dense, and he liked it very much.

After ten thousand years of seclusion...

Suddenly, a cold aura of slaughter bloomed from Mount Sumeru.

The massive fluctuation caused the newly born heavens and earth to shake incessantly.

The Slaughter God-Demon had not fully healed his origin, but he had already condensed a new physical body.

Boom!

At this moment, a long spear permeated with baleful energy shot toward him.

The Slaughter God-Demon was quick-witted and caught the handle of the spear in one grasp.

This was the stem of the Primordial Chaos Azure Lotus, combined with the most ferocious baleful energy between heaven and earth—the Heavenly Dao fierce baleful treasure, the Godslayer Spear!

The moment Luo Hou grasped the Godslayer Spear, he knew that this spear had been tailor-made for him.

It was also at this time that endless baleful energy surged from the Godslayer Spear, pouring into the Slaughter God-Demon's body.

The Slaughter God-Demon did not resist... he allowed these powers to drill into his body.

A few years passed.

He opened his eyes... for some reason, he had forgotten more than half of his previous memories.

"Heavenly Dao bestows upon me the name: Luo Hou. From this day forth, I shall prove the Dao through slaughter! Henceforth, I shall reside at Mount Sumeru and establish the Demon Clan!"

It is said that before the Creation of Heaven and Earth, there existed a strand of innate Dao-Qi, shaped like an earthworm... After being tempered by Chaos for many years, it took form and became the Dao-Qi God-Demon.

During the great war to slay the Gods and Demons, his physical body was shattered by the axe-light of the great god Pangu, and his primordial spirit escaped into the depths of Chaos!

After Pangu's Creation of Heaven and Earth, his primordial spirit arrived in the Primordial World.

Finally, he reconstituted his physical body upon the land of the Primordial World.

However, he was also influenced by an invisible force, and a portion of his previous memories vanished.

"From this day forth, my name is Hongjun."

Hongjun, dressed in a Daoist robe, raised his hand to calculate.

A moment later, his eyes widened abruptly: "Hahaha, this Western Kunlun is destined to hold a stroke of fortune for me."

Having said that, Hongjun hurried toward Western Kunlun.

The region of Western Kunlun was vast and filled with abundant spiritual energy.

As soon as Hongjun arrived, he was drawn to a radiant treasure within Western Kunlun.

"That is... the Fortune Jade Disc?"
