Both the Wu and Yao races were recuperating, and for a time, the Primordial World appeared quite tranquil.
Minghe paid no heed to any of this, focusing solely on cultivation, refining the Blood Sea. As time flowed on, Minghe's cultivation and magic power naturally grew deeper and deeper.
After all, while refining the Blood Sea and grasping its origin, Minghe was also cultivating, comprehending the various secrets of the Blood Sea. His understanding of the Law of Blood, in particular, advanced nearly every day.
His comprehension of the Law of Blood had already surpassed that of any other law, even exceeding the Law of Slaughter and the Five Elements Laws.
Thus, time passed leisurely, and in the blink of an eye, another tens of thousands of years went by. On this day, Minghe was in the midst of cultivation.
Suddenly, the system's prompt sounded in his mind: "Ding, detected that Dijun has developed feelings for Fairy Xihe on the Taiyin Star and intends to ask Nuwa to act as a matchmaker, sending a betrothal gift to Fairy Xihe. The host may make the following choices."
"Choice one: Leak this information to the Wu Clan, thereby sabotaging the Heavenly Marriage. Reward: One drop of Pangu's Essence Blood."
"Choice two: Ignore this matter. Reward: The method of Dutian Divine Thunder."
Hearing the system's prompt, Minghe's body jolted, and he opened his eyes.
The rewards this time were quite tempting. Pangu's Essence Blood, the method of Dutian Divine Thunder.
Which one should he choose?
Minghe quickly made his decision and silently said to the system in his mind: "System, I choose option two."
Although Pangu's Essence Blood was excellent, sabotaging the Heavenly Marriage would be a great hassle.
Minghe disliked trouble, especially now when his wings were not yet fully grown. He had no desire to have the Demon Race's army come knocking on his door.
Therefore, not being a turncoat and continuing to be a homebody was the right course of action.
After all, doing nothing at all would still let him freeload the method of Dutian Divine Thunder.
Dutian Divine Thunder—this was the thunder method used by the great god Pangu to split open the heavens and earth, blasting apart chaos!
Calculating it, the value of this divine thunder method was absolutely not inferior to Pangu's Essence Blood.
It might even be higher.
As Minghe made his choice, the system's reward was soon distributed.
The method of Dutian Divine Thunder appeared in Minghe's mind.
This thunder method was unique to Minghe in the Primordial World. As for others who had obtained Dutian Divine Thunder, theirs were all incomplete.
For example, among the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Ancestor Witch of Thunder and the Ancestor Witch of Lightning—these two Ancestral Witches also inherited and mastered Dutian Divine Thunder, but their versions were incomplete.
The same went for the Three Pure Ones. They also had the inheritance of Dutian Divine Thunder, but it was also incomplete. However, the Three Pure Ones combined the incomplete Dutian Divine Thunder from their inherited memories of the creation of heaven and earth with a portion of the Purple Firmament Divine Thunder they had gained from Hongjun's lectures, and created three great divine thunders of their own.
These were Taiqing Divine Thunder, Yuqing Divine Thunder, and Shangqing Divine Thunder. Although these three divine thunders could not match the world-splitting power of Dutian Divine Thunder, they were undoubtedly more suited to the Three Pure Ones, allowing them to unleash greater might.
But now that Minghe had obtained this Dutian Divine Thunder and mastered this thunder method, his thunder method was the strongest in the Primordial World.
Other thunder methods, such as the Three Pure Ones' Three Pure Divine Thunders, Hongjun's Purple Firmament Divine Thunder, and so on, were absolutely inferior to his.
Of course, the thunder method being the strongest also depended on the caster's strength. Only with great strength could the divine power be great.
Minghe deeply understood this principle. Although he had obtained the most profound thunder method, he did not become arrogant.
Instead, he quickly calmed his mind and silently began to comprehend the method of Dutian Divine Thunder.
Among the many spells, thunder methods could be said to be the most violent and fierce.
And Dutian Divine Thunder, as the ancestor of all thunders, went without saying. Thunder and lightning are born from the energy of Yin and Yang; thunder is Yang, lightning is Yin.
Dutian Divine Thunder was the thunder that burst forth when Pangu split heaven and earth, when Yin and Yang separated, and the Supreme Ultimate was opened from chaos.
Minghe closed his eyes and comprehended. As time passed, gradually, strange phenomena seemed to appear on his body.
Electric currents seemed to dart through the air, occasionally bursting with light, as if a dim chaos suddenly gave birth to its first glimmer—that was the light of thunder and lightning.
Thunder and lightning tore through the darkness, blooming with radiance.
Rumble!
A low roar of thunder seemed to sound, and streaks of lightning emerged from Minghe's body, growing brighter and more dazzling.
This also signified that Minghe's understanding of the Way of Thunder was deepening, and his mastery of Dutian Divine Thunder was growing.
However, Dutian Divine Thunder was the ancestor of all thunders, and mastering this thunder method was no easy task.
In the process, Minghe also comprehended some other thunder methods, which he created by combining his understanding of other paths.
These could be considered branches of Dutian Divine Thunder. For example, there was Yin Yang Divine Thunder, Five Elements Divine Thunder, Blood Thunder, and so on.
And just as Minghe was comprehending the method of Dutian Divine Thunder and studying various thunders, the system's prompt suddenly sounded in his mind again.
"Ding, detected that the Heavenly Marriage has already begun. Dijun has sent a wedding procession to the Taiyin Star to welcome Xihe, while the Wu Clan has also received the news. The Ancestor Witch of Water, Gonggong, and the Ancestor Witch of Fire, Zhurong, have volunteered to ambush them along the way. The host may make the following choices."
"Choice one: Pass this information to the Demon Race, ensuring the Heavenly Marriage proceeds smoothly. Reward: High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, Moonlight Treasure Box."
"Choice two: Ignore this matter, allowing Gonggong and Zhurong to sabotage the Heavenly Marriage. Reward: One drop of Pangu's Essence Blood."
After hearing the system's prompt, Minghe couldn't help but be somewhat surprised. The Moonlight Treasure Box?
However, he quickly noticed the six words preceding the Moonlight Treasure Box: High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Minghe shook his head. A High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure? That was far too inferior!
Even if it truly were that treasure, the Moonlight Treasure Box should be a spacetime-attribute artifact.
But even as a spacetime-attribute treasure, if placed in the Primordial World, it was still merely a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Thus, the Moonlight Treasure Box's effects would be greatly diminished, because the spacetime of the Primordial World was extremely stable.
It wasn't something one could casually traverse.
Especially when it was merely a single High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
"System, I choose option two." Therefore, Minghe unhesitatingly selected option two again.
One drop of Pangu's Essence Blood.
This Pangu's Essence Blood—he had coveted it for a long time. Minghe was very curious about what Pangu's Essence Blood was actually like.
It held tremendous allure for him. After all, aside from his innate affinity with the Way of Slaughter, Minghe's talent in the Blood Dao was also considerable.
He was, after all, born within this Blood Sea, and the Blood Sea contained mostly the blood of all kinds of living beings.
In fact, the vast majority of Minghe's current cultivation had been elevated precisely because of this "blood."
Refining the Blood Sea and comprehending the Blood Dao caused Minghe's cultivation and Magic Power to still grow with every passing moment.
