"A dragon! It's the Dragon King! The Dragon King has appeared to shelter our people."
"Lord Dragon King!"
"Dragon King!"
Cries of astonishment rose from the Human Clan of the tribe. A true dragon manifested in the heavens and spat out a bubble, instantly enveloping the entire Human Clan tribe.
It shielded them from the Primordial World's calamity.
Meanwhile, Gu Yuena came above Xu You's head and asked in utter bewilderment, "Why shelter that bunch of trash?"
To Gu Yuena, the Human Clan was despicable.
They had betrayed the Dragon God and eliminated the Dragon Clan.
Although this was a different world, the stereotype remained.
Especially since they really were a bunch of trash who could not even cultivate. What use was there in sheltering them?
"You'll know in a moment."
Xu You spoke calmly, but he felt a little envious as he looked at the figures in the heavens.
Some are born Quasi-Sages. Hmph, while others are born burdened with karmic hindrances.
It really makes a dragon furious.
The more Xu You thought about it, the more he wanted to rid himself of his karmic hindrances and advance as quickly as possible.
In fact, the current calamity was a fatal tribulation for ordinary sacred beings.
But those who had truly cultivated to the Golden Immortal realm could still protect themselves and survive.
Once the war between the Witch Clan and Demon Clan ended, however, the six great Sages would emerge.
Everything in the Primordial World would fall into the Sages' hands. They would arrange everything, keeping all matters of karma and the like firmly in their grasp.
The first half of the Primordial World's history could still be considered a struggle for supremacy between races.
Later on, it would be the strong scheming and the weak submitting.
When that time came, he would not escape it either.
I have to break through as soon as possible!
If all else fails, I'll go back to prison in the Underworld.
At this moment, the Witch Clan was panicking, while the Demon Clan was overjoyed.
Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi, in particular, had never expected something like this to happen to the Witch Clan.
Eastern Emperor Taiyi said, "After today, the Witch Clan will probably be gravely weakened, and the Primordial World will belong to our Demon Clan."
Di Jun said, "The Witch Clan really is courting death."
No one chose to intervene, because this was the Witch Clan's calamity.
Moreover, if they intervened and failed to save the situation, they might well be punished by the Heavenly Dao.
As for successfully saving it, even Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi had no idea how to do so right now.
Were they supposed to use their own bodies to fill the hole in the sky?
Empress Wa Palace.
Nüwa, who stood just a step away from becoming a Sage, gradually gained clarity in her eyes.
She had already gained tremendous providence by creating the Human Clan, yet she still lacked something.
And now, she knew!
All the Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent watched in utter bewilderment as well.
"Two gods actually punched a hole through the sky?"
"Ten gods? There are actually ten whole gods? Isn't that too terrifying?"
Even the students of Shrek Academy were discussing it animatedly.
It was at this moment that the Sea God Pavilion Elder and dean of Shrek Academy's outer court reacted.
Cai Yue'er's face was ashen.
"Nonsense! Our Shrek Academy's forefather, Sea God Tang San, is the strongest!"
"Don't be fooled by how fiercely they're fighting, or even by their ability to shatter the sky."
"The gods of our Douluo Continent are undying and indestructible, living as long as the heavens, and can even create worlds."
"Look at them. All they're doing is destroying the world. They can't save it at all."
"They cannot possibly compare to Sea God Tang San."
"That Gonggong also commands the power of the sea, yet he can't defeat a god who commands fire. If it were our forefather Sea God Tang San, he would never be so useless!"
She felt that her students' attitudes had been somewhat poor lately.
Although the world within the sky screen had indeed influenced them somewhat.
But Shrek Academy was the strongest academy, an academy that had once taught gods.
How could a mere so-called Primordial World compare to their Shrek Academy?
"Look, they punched a hole through the sky, yet they can't fix it at all. That's no divine ability."
Hearing this, the students of Shrek Academy's outer court all looked enlightened.
Indeed, those in the Primordial World had punched a hole through the sky but could not fix it. What kind of gods were they?
Their forefather Sea God Tang San, on the other hand, was omnipotent.
"The dean is right. We don't need to envy that Primordial World."
"In the end, it's just a primitive, desolate planet. Who cares about cultivating the Dao? Once we become gods, we'll naturally be immortal and invincible!"
Cai Yue'er was very satisfied. She did not want to see anyone praising anything outside Shrek Academy.
Our Shrek Academy is the strongest.
What does the Primordial World amount to?
But just then, a sudden change occurred within the sky screen.
Even though the Ancestral Witches exhausted their vast blood Qi to suppress the imperial flames on all sides, and even stabilized the shattered earth veins, they could only slow the collapse of heaven and earth.
The hole in the heavens, however, could not be mended no matter what they did.
Just then, the Demon Clan appeared.
Dijiang manifested and roared furiously, "Does your Demon Clan intend to seize this opportunity to start a war?"
The newcomer was none other than Nüwa, who did not even spare him a glance.
In her eyes, these fellows were all brainless things.
They had even managed to smash the pillar of heaven.
That was the spine of the great god Pangu, whom their Witch Clan worshipped.
Nüwa descended into the world and witnessed the suffering of all living beings.
Holding the Five-Colored Divine Stones she had refined in Kunlun, she used her Dao heart of creation to smelt the heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
She leaped into the air!
To mend the sky!
Under the gazes of tens of thousands of Primordial World creatures, that majestic figure was actually mending the sky.
Dijiang was utterly dumbfounded. "That actually works?"
The sky could be mended?
As the mending began, streak after streak of dazzling golden light poured into Nüwa.
Heavenly Dao merit!
It was all heavenly Dao merit.
An inexhaustible flood of heavenly Dao merit kept pouring into Nüwa's body.
Dijiang's eyes turned red as he watched.
Wait, what?
Heavenly Dao merit is being showered over Nüwa as if it costs nothing. What's going on?
Didn't she just mend the sky?
At the Demon Court, Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Di Jun were ecstatic when they saw the heavenly Dao merit swirling around Nüwa.
"Is this... is this a Sage?"
"Nüwa is becoming a Sage!"
The two immediately summoned the demons to guard her, without the slightest hesitation.
They also rushed to Nüwa's side at once.
Although the Witch Clan had committed a grave mistake and could not possibly strike at this critical moment.
After all, they had even done something like smashing the pillar of heaven. What if they really did lose their minds and strike at the crucial moment of Nüwa's ascension to Sagehood?
"A Sage! Our Demon Clan finally has a Sage!"
The other Ancestral Witches exchanged looks.
Now that the Demon Clan had a Sage, what were they to do?
However, this was no longer the time for them to ponder that.
Because once the Primordial World Continent began to stabilize, the reckoning arrived.
Nüwa had mended the sky and gained supreme merit.
But every cause had its effect.
Merit did not appear out of thin air. It only transferred.
And so, the very opposite of heavenly Dao merit-karmic hindrances-
Descended directly upon the chief culprit.
Gonggong.
He had been formed from Pangu's blood essence.
Even if he was connected to Pangu, he had damaged the Primordial World Continent and caused hundreds of millions upon billions of living beings to die in the calamity.
He deserved ten thousand deaths!
