After regulating his breath for a time, Emperor Jun's complexion finally regained its color. He opened his eyes, though lingering shock remained in them.
The Heavenly Dao was simply too chaotic!
He had thought that his inability to comprehend the Heavenly Dao stemmed from insufficient cultivation. Now, it seemed that was not the only reason. The chaos of the Heavenly Dao might have been a major factor.
Even under the protection of the Hetu Luoshu Diagram, he had still failed to find a path toward breaking through to the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm from the Heavenly Dao.
Though he had already been mentally prepared for this. After all, breaking through to Grand Luo Golden Immortal was not so easy.
Unless one encountered a fortuitous opportunity, it was impossible to find the direction on one's first attempt at comprehending the Heavenly Dao.
Still, the current Heavenly Dao differed from what he had imagined. It was unexpectedly chaotic.
Suddenly, Emperor Jun seemed to think of something, and his mind began racing with deductions.
Originally, he had believed that since he had already been born, the Primordial World should have reached the period after the Dao-Devil Conflict. He merely needed to wait for the first Sage of heaven and earth to emerge.
The Primordial World should have been relatively peaceful at this time.
But now, he began to doubt whether the Primordial World was truly in that era.
Emperor Jun could not help looking toward Taiyi, who had yet to be fully conceived. The Heavenly Dao is so chaotic. Could it still be within a calamity?
He could not help recalling the legends of later generations. Whenever a great calamity descended, the Primordial Heavenly Dao would become incomparably chaotic and difficult to deduce.
The current situation was exceedingly similar. Of course, Emperor Jun was not entirely certain, since he was only a Golden Immortal.
Though his foundations were excellent, his cultivation was low, and his understanding of the Heavenly Dao was exceedingly shallow.
Even so, Emperor Jun could not help guessing what stage the Primordial World was currently in.
The Dao-Devil Conflict?
Or the Dragon-Han Calamity?
Could it be the Ferocious Beast Calamity?
Surely I can't be the first living being in the Primordial World?
After speculating for a while, Emperor Jun set aside those chaotic thoughts. They were merely guesses, after all.
The legends of his previous life were ultimately just legends. They could only serve as references. Otherwise, in this real Primordial World, he might not even know how he died.
Besides, if he wanted to know what the current Primordial World was like, could he not simply go and see for himself?
Emperor Jun naturally knew that if the Primordial World was currently in the midst of a great calamity, it would certainly be extremely dangerous.
But he knew even better that he could not hide in the Sun Star forever without ever setting foot in the Primordial World.
That way, he might have a high chance of surviving, but was such a state of mind truly suitable for cultivation?
Cultivation was like rowing against the current: if one did not advance, one retreated. If it truly came to that, it would likely mark the end of his path.
Though the original Emperor Jun had perished body and soul, he had never given up on the path of Dao.
Now that he possessed the memories of later generations and could avoid many dangers, how could he be afraid?
Moreover, when he used the Hetu Luoshu Diagram to deduce the Heavenly Secret, although he had not found a direction for breaking through to Grand Luo Golden Immortal, he had sensed one of his own fortuitous opportunities.
He would seize that opportunity and, while he was at it, see what the current heaven and earth of the Primordial World looked like.
The thoughts in Emperor Jun's heart were actually persuading himself. In his previous life, he had simply "laid flat."
But now that he was in the Primordial World, he could no longer face life with the mindset of his previous life. Even if he did not become the Demon Emperor, he still had to witness the sights along the path of Dao.
Of course, Emperor Jun also knew that this change in mentality was not solely due to his own thoughts. The instincts of this Primordial Being were also driving his mindset to change.
Thinking this, Emperor Jun began silently sorting through his own abilities.
After spending such long years comprehending his inherited memories, although he had not broken through to Grand Luo Golden Immortal, he had created quite a few divine abilities and spells.
Among them, the one he was particularly proud of was the Rainbow Transformation Art. It was excellent for escaping...
No, for traveling.
Only by living long enough could one see more scenery and pursue one's own path of Dao.
Thus, a movement divine ability was extremely important, even indispensable.
Besides that, Emperor Jun had already learned to freely control the imposing and domineering aura he possessed.
Given his current cultivation and personality, Emperor Jun felt that this aura truly did not suit him.
Yet what surprised Emperor Jun was that although it did not match his personality, this aura was innate and unchangeable. He could only conceal it.
All he could do was sigh. No wonder the original Emperor Jun had been able to become the Demon Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor.
Emperor Jun looked toward Taiyi once again. Protected by the Chaos Bell, Taiyi was still being conceived, and he would need an exceedingly long time before being born.
He could not help marveling at Taiyi's fortune. The Primordial Treasure Chaos Bell had actually become his accompanying spiritual treasure. Even the Three Purities did not possess such fortune.
After confirming that Taiyi's conception would still require a long time, Emperor Jun arranged a layer of formations around him. It was linked to his divine sense and could serve as a warning.
After all, the protection of this formation truly could not compare to the Chaos Bell's protection.
Only after finishing this did Emperor Jun nod in satisfaction.
He had actually considered Preaching the Dao to Taiyi and helping Taiyi emerge more quickly.
But when he thought of his own cultivation, merely Golden Immortal, and the barrier he had encountered in breaking through to Grand Luo Golden Immortal, he feared leading Taiyi onto the wrong path and abandoned the idea.
Then, under the control of his divine sense, the aura he naturally possessed gradually receded. The Golden Crow patterns on his Gold-Flow Robe also gradually faded until they vanished.
Under Emperor Jun's efforts, he gradually became ordinary, like an ordinary living being of the Primordial World as he had imagined.
After disguising himself, Emperor Jun checked himself over once more. Once he was sure he had overlooked nothing, he directly left the Sun Star.
He headed east, making straight for the location of the opportunity he had deduced.
As he traveled, Emperor Jun continuously tested the Rainbow Transformation Art that he valued so highly.
At the same time, he continuously adjusted the divine ability according to his own insights, making it more suitable for himself.
This caused his traveling speed to grow faster and faster.
By now, Emperor Jun had confirmed that he was not the first living being in this primordial heaven and earth, for he had encountered many living beings of the Primordial World.
He had also confirmed that this was not the era of the Ferocious Beast Calamity. Although he had seen beasts that had not developed intelligence, they were not particularly powerful.
If the Ferocious Beast Calamity had truly been like this, it would have been far too simple.
After seeing them, Emperor Jun put the matter out of his mind. He did not think too deeply about it or spend too much emotion on it.
His primary focus remained on traveling, refining his divine abilities, and strengthening himself.
While traveling, whenever he encountered other living beings fighting—whether powerful or weak—Emperor Jun did not meddle. He did his utmost to conceal his traces and hurried past.
Even when clans and tribes perished before his eyes, Emperor Jun felt no compassion.
After all, at this stage of the Primordial World, a Golden Immortal truly amounted to nothing.
Furthermore, he did not know the current situation in the Primordial World, so he dared not act rashly.
Traveling at full speed, Emperor Jun soon arrived at the East Sea.
As he approached the East Sea, Emperor Jun carefully concealed his aura while moving forward swiftly and cautiously.
Only after Emperor Jun saw the state of the East Sea did he finally relax. A thought could not help flashing through his mind.
It seemed this was not the Dragon-Han Calamity either. Along the way, he had not seen many descendants of the Dragon Clan.
Now it seemed that either it was the Dao-Devil Conflict, or the Dao-Devil Conflict had already ended.
Emperor Jun crossed over the East Sea and arrived at a small island.
Valley of Tang.
Feeling the spiritual charm of this place, Emperor Jun immediately knew the island's name.
Emperor Jun stopped before the island. Valley of Tang.
He already had a guess regarding the opportunity here.
He remained fully vigilant, holding the Hetu Luoshu Diagram in hand and ready to mobilize his Magical Power at any moment.
Only after doing all this did Emperor Jun enter the island.
What Emperor Jun did not know was that shortly after he entered the island, a middle-aged man dressed in magnificent robes also entered this island known as Valley of Tang.
After entering Valley of Tang, Emperor Jun could clearly feel the intense heat within.
He sensed the aura of fire, an aura different from the Solar Trueflame.
As he proceeded, Emperor Jun encountered all kinds of spiritual materials, such as spiritual ores and spiritual plants. They all possessed one kind of aura: the aura of flames.
The true fire within Emperor Jun was the Solar Trueflame, and he could sense these similar auras.
He paid no attention to these spiritual materials. On one hand, they were of little use to him now.
On the other hand, Emperor Jun knew that these spiritual materials were merely accessories to his true target this time.
He cautiously advanced toward the place where the flame aura was strongest. He could feel that the opportunity was not far from him.
As he continued deeper, flames had already appeared across the earth and in the air, burning without cease.
