As Minghe made his choice, the System's reward was quickly distributed.

The Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Brush were both top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, and they formed a set, collectively known as the Human Book.

They were items used to establish the Underworld and manage Reincarnation. Combined, they formed a supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Together with Zhenyuanzi's Earthly Scroll, and the Heavenly Book, which had not yet appeared and was likely in Hongjun's possession, namely the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip, they constituted the so-called Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man. These three books governed Heaven, Earth, and Man respectively, each possessing its own might and purpose.

Now that Minghe had obtained the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Brush, they would prove immensely useful to him in the future.

However, Minghe had no time to refine the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Brush. He simply cast them out, piercing through the void and landing deep within the Sea of Blood.

In a certain spot deep within the Sea of Blood, a giant mosquito was lying dormant, absorbing blood energy to cultivate.

This mosquito was Minghe's avatar, the Primordial Exotic Species Blood-Winged Black Mosquito. The mosquito had already taken human form.

However, Minghe was solely focused on his cultivation and did not wish to create any unnecessary complications, so he merely allowed the mosquito to grow within the Sea of Blood.

Fortunately, the Sea of Blood was the most suitable place for the mosquito to grow. As long as it continuously absorbed blood energy, the mosquito would become stronger and more ferocious.

By awakening its Primordial bloodline, the mosquito would eventually become a great fiend!

Now, since Minghe had no time to refine the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Brush, he entrusted them to the mosquito, letting it handle the task.

Minghe himself, meanwhile, gradually immersed himself in cultivation, entering seclusion.

This time, Minghe would not emerge from seclusion until he attained Dao.

This meant that Minghe's seclusion would be exceptionally long.

It was unknown whether Minghe's failure to create the Asura Clan would impede the grand momentum of the Primordial Era.

Would it cause the timeline to stall at this point, preventing Houtu from embodying the Six Paths of Reincarnation?

After all, this was an incomplete set of Six Paths!

However, Minghe did not concern himself with these matters. If his inaction in creating the Asura Clan truly led to such consequences, then Minghe would accept those consequences. His arrival had already predetermined that the Primordial Era would no longer remain unchanged.

Whether the impact came early or late, it would still have an impact.

Especially this time, it concerned his Attainment of Dao. Once he truly succeeded in Dao Proving Through Laws, the entire Primordial Era would likely be affected by the slightest ripple.

Because—

the true variable had appeared.

Previously, Minghe had stayed hidden in the Sea of Blood, minimizing his movements, which greatly concealed him.

He had avoided causing significant interference with other events.

But this time was different. Once Minghe attained Dao, and moreover, through Laws, the impact on the Primordial Era would be immense.

After all, the original Primordial Era only had the Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao, but now, Minghe would be added.

A Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal who could stand on equal footing with the Heavenly Dao Saints would be added.

How could this not have an impact?

However, all of that was for later. For now, Minghe gradually immersed himself in cultivation and comprehension.

His realm was already at the peak of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, with the next step being Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Minghe was wholeheartedly comprehending the Way of Slaughter. In his comprehension, the Way of Slaughter was not independent.

Instead, it was intricately connected with all Daos, closely linked, coexisting, and unified.

This was the essence of the Three Thousand Great Daos: different paths leading to the same destination. Dao itself was nameless; names were imposed upon it. Thus arose the appellations of Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Creation, Destruction, Reincarnation, Slaughter, Time, Space, and so on.

However, Minghe had not yet reached the realm where he could directly comprehend "Dao." In his eyes, "Dao" still possessed these numerous differing properties: the Way of Yin and Yang, the Way of Five Elements, the Way of Creation, the Way of Destruction, the Way of Reincarnation, the Way of Slaughter, the Way of Time and Space, and so forth.

Yet, based on this concept and understanding, Minghe could forge a completely different path of Attaining Dao and cultivating Dao.

Not only for his current goal of Attaining Dao and advancing to Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, but even after becoming a Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, he could continue to walk this path.

This path had virtually no limits. Because in Minghe's concept and understanding, infinite Daos could be integrated into his core Way of Slaughter.

All Daos could become Slaughter. Any Dao could evolve into the Way of Slaughter, and could be a part of the Way of Slaughter.

Time flowed ceaselessly. Within the Sea of Blood, the Blood God Palace where Minghe resided remained tightly shut.

More than a hundred thousand years had already passed.

During this time, even Great Peng had emerged from seclusion several times. Each time Great Peng emerged, he saw that the doors of the Blood God Palace were still closed.

It was evident that Minghe was still in seclusion inside. While this made Great Peng speechless, he couldn't help but admire him.

After all, he lacked the temperament to remain so patient, to stay in seclusion for over a hundred thousand years without even stepping out for a breath of fresh air.

Was this how powerful beings cultivated, with such dedication?

Looking at his own cultivation, still at the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, Great Peng gritted his teeth and secretly resolved to also seize his time.

He would strive to reach the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm as soon as possible. If he became a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he would not only have completed his mission but also be considered a powerful being in the Primordial Era.

At that time, he could also apply to return to the Undying Volcano and bring back the Innate Phoenix Tree.

After all, if he had the cultivation of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, then with his speed, it shouldn't take too long to make the trip, right?

Great Peng returned to his palace and continued his arduous cultivation in seclusion. Meanwhile, in the Blood God Palace, Minghe had fallen into a deep state of cultivation.

Gradually, Minghe's cultivation became more and more unfathomable. Although he was still at the peak of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, the aura emanating from his entire being became increasingly vast and profound.

For these past hundred thousand years, Minghe had been pushing forward his Way of Slaughter, merging it with other Daos, such as the Way of Yin and Yang, the Way of Five Elements, the Blood Dao, the Way of Reincarnation and Life-Death, and so on.

And after more than a hundred thousand years, Minghe had indeed succeeded. His Way of Slaughter had successfully merged with all the other Daos he had comprehended.

This also validated Minghe's realization: the Three Thousand Great Daos all originated from the same source, converging to the same destination, and could be completely merged into one.

"Boom!"

And so, after an unknown amount of time had passed, Minghe's body suddenly trembled. Behind him, a five-colored radiance gradually rose.

This was the Five-Colored Divine Light.

Furthermore, it wasn't just the Five-Colored Divine Light. Not long after, black and white Yin-Yang Divine Light also rose behind Minghe.

The two divine lights intertwined, evolving into Chaos Divine Light.

Even this wasn't the end. After the two divine lights merged and became Chaos Divine Light, streaks of lightning appeared within the divine light.

This lightning was the Dutian Divine Thunder, which Minghe had also merged into it.

With three great divine abilities merged into one, one could imagine how powerful the Chaos Divine Light was.
