Thirty-Six Epoch Cycles, Imminent Manifestation

Three Epoch Cycles passed, and the firmament returned to normal speed for only a brief moment.

The Innate Divine Being within the vision still had not been born.

Inside Buzhou Mountain, the Qi of Chaos flowed slowly, and the Innate Grand Formation showed no changes compared to the beginning.

For the Primordial World, three Epoch Cycles did not seem particularly long.

Gu Xuan was immersed in the Origin of the Chaos Pearl, gradually losing his perception of the passage of time.

The gestation of an Innate Divine Being differed from the secluded cultivation of acquired living beings.

He did not need to create a cultivation technique, nor did he need to repeatedly break through a certain realm.

The remaining origin of the Chaos Pearl was his foundation.

When this origin became completely consummated, it would be the day of his true physical manifestation and birth.

The endless Creation of Buzhou Mountain continuously converged along the Innate Grand Formation.

The traces of the Great Dao remaining within Pangu's coercion also slowly melted into Gu Xuan's innate spiritual light over the long years.

[Primordial Time Elapsed: Five Epoch Cycles.]

The Qi of Chaos surrounding Gu Xuan grew increasingly dense.

The originally incomplete and dim gray orb had completely merged into that piece of Innate Origin currently being gestated, leaving behind only a faint, illusory, yet consummated projection.

That was not the Chaos Pearl regaining its completeness.

Rather, the remaining origin of the Chaos Pearl was using Gu Xuan as its center to gestate a brand-new life.

[Primordial Time Elapsed: Nine Epoch Cycles.]

The sound of the Great Dao resounded within the Innate Grand Formation for the first time.

The sound was not grand, yet it seemed capable of piercing through endless years.

The Qi of Chaos around Gu Xuan changed accordingly.

A hazy world phenomenon unfolded within it.

At first, there was only a boundless, murky gloom.

Gradually, heaven and earth separated, mountains and rivers appeared, and the projections of the sun, moon, and stars slowly circulated in the depths of the world.

Gu Xuan did not deliberately create these sights.

The Chaos Pearl inherently possessed the ability to form a realm of its own.

Even though the orb had shattered, the World Dao engraved in the remaining origin had not completely vanished.

Along with Gu Xuan's gestation, this Dao likewise became his innate Dao.

There was no need to search, nor was there any need to choose.

He was born in harmony with the World Dao.

[Primordial Time Elapsed: Eighteen Epoch Cycles.]

The world phenomenon became increasingly distinct.

Mountain ranges undulated, the Four Seas surged, the sun and moon alternated, and the myriad stars flowed.

Although it was merely a projection manifested by the Great Dao, it already held the outline of a complete realm within it.

Gu Xuan's innate spiritual light resided at the center of the world.

All phenomena revolved around him.

The Origin of the Chaos Pearl and his True Spirit had long since become indistinguishable from one another.

Gu Xuan still retained his original memories and remained well aware of who he was.

Yet in terms of his life foundation, he was completely different from the person who had once come from Blue Star.

He was a brand-new Innate Divine Being born from the gestation of the Chaos Pearl's remaining origin.

Time continued to flow relentlessly.

Twenty Epoch Cycles.

Twenty-five Epoch Cycles.

Thirty Epoch Cycles.

The firmament automatically skipped over the vast majority of unchanging years, leaving behind only the sights of the Innate Origin undergoing transformation time and again.

The Qi of Chaos, which could initially cover only a small area, now filled the entire Innate Grand Formation.

The world phenomenon also gradually transitioned from hazy and obscure to grand and vast.

Yet Gu Xuan's aura did not grow violent as a result.

Quite the contrary.

As the gestation gradually neared completion, all the qi mechanisms that had previously permeated the Innate Grand Formation began to retract toward the center.

Chaos grew silent.

The Great Dao fell soundless.

That mass of Innate Origin which had existed for millions of years also gradually grew calm.

[Primordial Time Elapsed: Thirty-Five Epoch Cycles.]

The acceleration speed of the firmament began to slow down.

Inside Buzhou Mountain, countless Dao patterns lit up simultaneously.

The Innate Grand Formation shrouding this place operated of its own accord, converging the Creation of Heaven and Earth, which was far more majestic than ever before.

The Qi of Chaos transformed into a boundless tide, surging toward the place where Gu Xuan resided.

The world phenomenon manifested once more.

Yet this time, that vast world did not continue to expand outward.

The sun, moon, stars, mountains and rivers, and the Four Seas simultaneously transformed into streams of Dao marks, merging into Gu Xuan's innate spiritual light.

The Qi of Chaos that had permeated the entire grand formation was also rapidly diminishing.

It was as if all the power accumulated over millions of years was waiting for the final moment to arrive.

Time on the firmament continued to tick forward.

[The Thirty-Fifth Epoch Cycle Ends.]

[The Thirty-Sixth Epoch Cycle Begins.]

Another Epoch Cycle quietly slipped away.

Until at a certain moment, that mass of Innate Origin which had never possessed a specific form finally underwent a change.

A slender human-shaped outline slowly condensed in the depths of Chaos.

The Innate Grand Formation trembled gently.

The sound of the Great Dao, which had lain dormant within Buzhou Mountain for endless years, also fully awakened at this moment.

The acceleration of the firmament ceased accordingly.

[Cumulative Gestation Time: Thirty-Six Epoch Cycles.]

[Equivalent Primordial Time: 4,665,600 Years.]

[The Anchor Innate Origin is Consummated.]

[Important Event Detected.]

[Event Name: Manifestation.]

The moment the final prompt appeared on the firmament, the power accumulated within Buzhou Mountain for thirty-six Epoch Cycles erupted completely at this very moment.

The Innate Grand Formation fully revived.

A myriad of Dao patterns intertwined with one another, drawing in the boundless Creation of Buzhou Mountain.

The tidal wave of Chaos that had already begun to subside stirred once more, rushing toward the center of the grand formation.

Gu Xuan's innate spiritual light suspended amidst it.

A grand world manifested behind him.

The sky was high and the earth was wide, with endless mountains and rivers.

The sun and moon hung high above the nine heavens, the celestial stars revolved in the depths of the firmament, and the waves of the Four Seas encircled the continent, evolving the weather proper to a complete realm.

As the Qi of Chaos continuously converged, that world phenomenon also began to retract inward.

The sun and moon transformed into a pair of eyes.

The stars merged into the acupoints.

The mountains and rivers forged an innate Dao body.

Amidst the surging currents of the Four Seas, the boundless World Dao Resonance converged entirely into his physical form.

The sound of the Great Dao within the Innate Grand Formation grew increasingly grand.

For the first time since falling into slumber thirty-six Epoch Cycles ago, Gu Xuan truly opened his eyes.

In an instant, it was as if a world had been cleaved open within the depths of his gaze.

Chaos parted, and heaven and earth were newly born.

Countless visions appeared for merely a fraction of a second before returning to peace once again.

Gu Xuan stepped forth from the tide of Chaos.

His hair, dark as ink, draped casually over his shoulders.

A suit of azure Dao robes naturally manifested, devoid of excessive adornment save for a few dark-gold Dao patterns slowly flowing along the hem.

His appearance seemed to be only around seventeen years of age.

His brows were refined, his features handsome, and his frame slender.

Yet after experiencing the gestation of thirty-six Epoch Cycles, no trace of the greenness belonging to an ordinary youth could be seen within those eyes anymore.

Calm and profound.

It felt as though even the greatest tempests would struggle to make him truly lose his composure.

The chaotic qi surrounding his body gradually dispersed.

Gu Xuan did not deliberately release his might.

Yet the moment he truly took human form, the entire innate grand formation still trembled along with it.

The sound of the Great Dao resounded.

A phantom of the world hung behind him.

The boundless magic power accumulated over more than four million years circulated naturally within the innate dao body.

There was no cultivation technique running, nor were there any shackles during a realm breakthrough.

For an innate divine being, the moment gestation reached perfection and they took human form to emerge into the world meant they already possessed a cultivation level that acquired beings could hardly hope to reach.

Early Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Gu Xuan quietly sensed his connection with this heaven and earth.

The remaining origin of the Chaos Pearl had completely become his foundation.

Even though the supreme treasure of the past was no longer complete, the world dao engraved within its origin had not vanished.

The sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and Four Seas that had manifested over thirty-six epoch cycles were all external manifestations of this dao.

As for himself, he was the very root of this world's dao.

Gu Xuan raised his hand, and above his palm, chaotic qi gathered on its own.

A miniature phantom of the world unfolded accordingly.

The opening and closing of heaven and earth happened within a single thought.

Mountains, rivers, the sun, moon, and the stars of the heavens all manifested, only to return once more to chaos in an instant.

Gu Xuan glanced at it, then made it dissipate.

He did not lose his composure over this power, nor was he in any rush to test more methods.

He had already slumbered within Buzhou Mountain for thirty-six epoch cycles.

Since he had already taken human form, what era the Primordial World outside was currently in would naturally receive an answer once he walked out of the innate grand formation.

Only, walking the Primordial World still required a dao title.

Gu Xuan did not intend to discard his own name.

That was the name he had used across two lifetimes, and it was also the only trace that could prove he had once existed in those two worlds.

However, starting today, he was no longer just an ordinary student on the Blue Star preparing to enter the Douzhe Continent for trials.

Gu Xuan pondered for a moment, his gaze crossing the churning chaotic qi to look beyond the innate grand formation.

"Great Dao is above, I am the origin of the Chaos Pearl. Today I take human form, and my dao title is Qing Xuan."

His voice was not grand, yet it clearly reverberated throughout the entire grand formation.

Countless dao patterns lit up in response.

It felt as though even this heaven and earth, which had nurtured him for millions of years, was responding to this newly appeared name.

The world phenomena within the innate grand formation completely withdrew; the sun and moon hid themselves, and the stars vanished.

The mountains, rivers, and Four Seas all converged behind Qing Xuan.

Only a wispy, profound world dao resonance surrounded his body, lingering for a long time without dispersing.

At the same time.

The Primordial World Firmament, which had consistently observed the interior of Buzhou Mountain, captured the form of the anchor point for the very first time.

The information that had originally displayed an unknown lifeform changed accordingly.

[The anchor point has taken human form.]
[Life Level: Innate Divine Being.]
[Dao Title: Qing Xuan.]
[Practiced Dao: World Dao.]
[Current Realm: Early Taiyi Golden Immortal.]
[The Primordial World Firmament has returned to normal observation.]
