Dan Jing: If I Showed Off Before That Old Sage, He Wouldn't Beat Me to Death, Would He?

Thirty thousand years later.

Outside the Sun Star—

Dan Jing calmly saw off Xi He and Chang Xi, the two sisters who had been his guests for thirty thousand years.

He did not rush back into seclusion either.

He simply sat cross-legged amid the starry sky—

Although the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Witch Race had already burst onto the scene, Dan Jing, who had resolved not to enter the Calamity Cycle, paid no heed to the many matters concerning them.

As a Primordial Divine Being,

he had long since claimed the divine office of the "Sun God."

Dan Jing also had his own duties and tasks to fulfill!

For instance—

sorting out, regulating, and governing the entire starry sky!

"It's about time I got the Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation going!"

Countless thoughts flowed through Dan Jing's golden eyes.

He continuously deduced possibilities in his heart.

At this moment,

having clearly understood the path he needed to take and what he ought to do now, Dan Jing planned to begin the next step of his actions.

And while he was at it, he would give himself another astounding trump card!

That was—

to set up a Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation throughout the entire starry sky, one that he alone could control!

This was not impossible!

It was merely somewhat difficult.

But was Dan Jing the sort of person who feared hardship?

No.

Facing hardship, scaling hardship, crossing hardship, surpassing hardship—

that was the mindset commonly possessed by great cultivators like him who sought the Dao!

Of course.

His choice to set up a Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation that he alone could control was both Dan Jing's sincere desire and a helpless necessity.

There were two reasons—

First.

With a trump card like this, Dan Jing felt more at ease keeping it firmly in his own hands!

Second.

Dan Jing had neither people nor resources, and he had no intention of recruiting people or gathering resources!

Di Jun and Taiyi, those two brothers, had not considered setting up a Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation that one person could control.

That was because they had manpower when they needed manpower, and resources when they needed resources!

Thus, they could easily create a world-protecting grand formation through that simpler method.

Of course.

Simple as it was,

its flaw was equally obvious—

when the final battle came, if that old fellow Kunpeng saw that things were going badly and fled, the entire Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation would immediately collapse.

Therefore.

Dan Jing still preferred to keep the entire formation under his own control.

After all, he was someone with a strong desire for control.

Only by keeping such a trump card in his own hands could he use it with complete confidence!

Such a grand formation

could not possibly possess only the function of mobilizing the power of the starry sky to unleash slaughter.

It would certainly have other functions as well.

For example—

basic capabilities such as harmonizing the celestial phenomena, sorting out the stars, maintaining the entire starry sky, and so on should also be included!

It might even possess the function of refining Chaos qi.

Dan Jing raised his golden eyes and looked toward the Primordial World Membrane, which stood between the world and the Chaos beyond the heavens, blocking the dangers of Chaos from pouring into heaven and earth.

The Primordial World Membrane was like a filter—

it kept the countless killing intents, dangers, and other perils within the Chaos beyond the heavens outside the world.

At the same time,

it allowed Chaos qi that was not overly dangerous to flow into the world!

And that Chaos qi which entered the world—

after undergoing its first settling and differentiation within the starry sky, would fall into the firmament, be broken down once more, and then seep downward.

Thus,

after layer upon layer of settling and differentiation, Chaos qi would transform into all manner of essence of heaven and earth, nourishing all things and strengthening the foundations of the Primordial World and the Universal Realms.

Ding—

A soft chime, like the ringing of a bell, sounded out.

The Chaos Bell, shrunk to the size of a little bell, appeared in Dan Jing's hand.

He looked at the Chaos Bell—

all the profound mysteries of the Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation were hidden within it, awaiting his careful comprehension, deduction, and refinement.

Now,

Dan Jing had completely refined the Chaos Bell.

Of course.

This was not because Dan Jing's strength and realm were sufficient to refine the Chaos Bell, a primordial treasure!

The main reason was that Dan Jing currently—

had Heavenly Dao Merit, that all-purpose miracle cure!

With the convenience provided by the qi of Heavenly Dao Merit, he easily opened the final divine restriction of the Chaos Bell and completely refined this primordial treasure.

At this moment.

Dan Jing gazed at the Chaos Bell in his hand, his eyes filled with contemplation.

He silently thought:

"If the Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation can directly refine Chaos qi into essence of heaven and earth, then scatter it across the Primordial World and the Universal Realms, Heavenly Dao Merit will definitely be unavoidable."

"More than that—"

"If the Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation could even turn around and draw in Chaos like a whale swallowing the sea, using it to nourish the Primordial World..."

At that thought,

a fierce radiance flowed through Dan Jing's golden eyes:

"Damn—"

"If this succeeds, wouldn't my contribution to the Primordial World and the Universal Realms be absolutely enormous?"

By then—

if Dan Jing went straight to Violet Cloud Palace and showed off before that old Sage... cough, cough, cough, that venerable Sage, he would probably have to greet him with a smile and be unable to do anything to him!

"Hiss!"

Dan Jing drew in a sharp breath, seriousness and drive flashing through his golden eyes.

His interest surged:

"This matter... I need to treat it as a real matter!"

For no other reason.

Just so that he would have the capital to show off before that venerable Sage, he had to take the Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation seriously.

Another point worth mentioning was—

the Heavenly Circumference Stellar Formation was said to be a trump card, but it was also a duty!

This duty had been destined for Dan Jing to bear from the very moment he was conceived within the Sun Star after arriving in the Primordial World and the Universal Realms.

Setting aside the goals he wished to achieve.

Simply its ability to maintain the starry sky alone—

as the handsome fellow born from the Sun Star, His Excellency the Sun God, one of the representatives of the starry sky, Dan Jing could not escape this responsibility.

Smack!

Tossing the Chaos Bell in his hand, Dan Jing rose directly to his feet.

"Let's go!"

"Gotta hurry up—"

"Maybe in a few more epochs, Nuwa and Fuxi will start fighting the Twelve Ancestral Witches."

"This spectacle... can't be missed."

As for this—

most of the powerful figures in the Primordial World could deduce it!

There was no helping it.

The location of Pangu Divine Hall and that of Fengqi Mountain's dojo were simply too close.

If the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Witch Race truly began conquering the Primordial World, Nuwa and Fuxi, the sister and brother of Fengqi Mountain, would absolutely be the first powerful figures caught in the storm!

These two sides—

would sooner or later come to blows!

The Twelve Ancestral Witches were not easy to get along with.

But Nuwa and Fuxi, that sister and brother, were no saints either.

They would fight—

they would definitely fight!

Time passed swiftly.

In the blink of an eye—

four epochs slipped by soundlessly.

At this time.

The atmosphere throughout the Primordial World gradually became strange because of the sudden emergence of the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Witch Race.

Calling it drawn swords and bent bows would be going too far.

But calling it tranquil and peaceful would be even further from the truth.

Of course.

Setting the atmosphere aside!

As time passed—

the powerful figures from every corner of heaven and earth began turning their eyes again and again toward Fengqi Mountain!

Each and every one of them carried a hint of anticipation for a good show.

Among them—

none hid their gaze and attention more openly than that Sun Star madman and spectacle-lover from above the Nine Heavens, within the boundless starry sky.

The other powerful figures merely cast an occasional glance.

That madman and spectacle-lover—

his gaze had not restrained itself in the slightest, much less ever withdrawn!!!
