Facilities and Associated Treasures

Abilities and Functions

Deduction and Concealment of Heavenly Secrets

The hall supports Lin Yu’s work of uncovering hidden information while concealing heavenly secrets 1 4.

• Its rankings expose concealed cultivators, faction foundations, racial information, and special physiques 55 72 132 297.
• Its concealment prevents Lin Yu’s early cultivation breakthrough from alarming the Eastern Wasteland and protects him from the consequences of revealing heavenly secrets while inside 4.
• Xu Ziyue publicly claims that the hall can deduce the ancient past, present events, and even the Heavenly Dao. She demonstrates its reach by revealing a secret from Gu Mingxin’s time in the womb 283.
• The Primordial Platform can directly analyze the vast majority of treasures Lin Yu encounters in the era of the Three Thousand Immortal Worlds 602.

Primordial Platform Authority

Within the platform, Lin Yu controls restrictions and can greatly enhance his divination abilities 9.

• Potential enhancement: Given sufficient time, even an ordinary secret manual can have its potential raised by as many as two grades 9.
• Control over objects: Lin Yu halts twelve Great Emperor inheritance stones in midair, preventing them from acting without his permission 61.
• Creation: Living beings created on the platform benefit from later hall upgrades 136.
• Limit: The platform’s strength depends on Lin Yu’s own power. Bringing a vastly stronger cultivator onto it does not guarantee that he can subdue them 9.

Rankings and Fortune Exchange

The Primordial Rankings provide tangible benefits rather than merely recording strength 109 143.

• Cultivator rankings: Improve cultivation speed or grant strength according to placement and ranking type 109 143.
• Racial rankings: Can improve racial talent 143.
• World rankings: Can strengthen a world’s origin power 143 184.
• Faction rankings: Can strengthen an organization and increase its fortune 143.
• Return to the hall: Ranked factions and races supply part of their increased fortune to nourish the Primordial Platform 114.
• Dynamic challenges: Figures of light reproduce ranked cultivators’ strength, physiques, techniques, and tactical choices, allowing challengers to compete against accurate counterparts 221.

Protection and Concealment

• Local perception: Lin Yu can sense changes throughout the hall and nearby mountains, including arriving visitors 17.
• Stealth mode: After leaving the Xuanxuan Plane, Hongmeng Mountain becomes undetectable to most observers; Lin Yu and a few exceptionally powerful cultivators can still perceive it 93.
• Containment: The hall’s formations restrain Lin Yu’s presence during his breakthrough to late-stage Immortal Official 251.
• Distant protection: A formation left in the Vast God Domain continues protecting its inhabitants after Lin Yu’s departure 117.
• Disciple intervention: Murong Liu’s Primordial token summons Xu Ziyue when a Half-Step Primogenitor Realm demonic shadow attempts to capture him 355.

Public Realms and Tournaments

Twelve Primordial Secret Realms

Lin Yu opens twelve worlds to every being in the Southern Heaven Great Domain 185.

• Entry: Call upon the Primordial Rankings and wait ten breaths 185.
• Cost: No admission fee; the hall claims none of the treasures obtained by entrants 185.
• Resources: Cultivation techniques, Saint- and Emperor-grade medicines, magical treasures, and twenty-four strands of Immortal Qi distributed through treasures and artifacts 184 185.
• Cultivation environment: Dense spiritual power improves entrants’ bodies and innate abilities, enabling some to advance several levels or an entire major realm 186.
• Special reward: Gathering a complete strand of Immortal Qi earns a Primordial Token permitting one entry into the Land of the Extreme Dao 185.
• Dangers: The realms contain powerful monsters, including Half-step Immortal creatures. Mountain Guardian Guards also prevent interference with the realms’ skies 190.

Arena Events

• Primordial Hegemony Tournament: An early contest on the Primordial Platform draws attention from major and secluded Eastern Wasteland sects because of its connection to the Heavenly Dao 10.
• Star Combat Ability Rankings: Supported by 1,926 arenas that qualify as Immortal-level treasures, forged from materials donated through the Star Beauty Ranking 219 221.
• Spectator opportunities: Broadcast battles allow viewers to observe from multiple angles and gain insights from leading cultivators’ techniques 238.
• Sequence Disciple selection: An announced route to the title requires slaying the demonic beasts guarding the various Primordial Spaces 249.
• Primordial Investiture of the Gods Arena Tournament: Restricted to the Immortal Spirit Realm; Xu Ziyue warns outsiders that disguises will not evade the hall’s deduction 283.

Personnel and Affiliates

• Lin Yu — Hall Master, owner, and controller of the hall’s system-granted functions 1 164.
• Xu Ziyue — Lin Yu’s sole personal disciple and the Sequence Disciples’ Eldest Senior Sister. Acts as the hall’s representative and protector 273 283 355.
• Twelve Primordial Sequence Disciples — Disciples permitted to pursue independent paths under the hall’s protection. Lin Yu later sends them to obtain Heaven-Mending Fragment inheritances in preparation for entering the Dark Rift 273 405.
• Primordial Guards — Guards whose cultivation improves through hall upgrades. They have no ordinary realm barriers, although their growth initially lags behind Lin Yu’s 85 135.

• Lin Baigu — The first member of the hall to enter the Great Emperor realm, reaching its middle stage 88.

• Baili Xuelian — Sequence Disciple involved in developing the Primordial Merchant Guild into a leading merchant organization 273 320.
• Supreme Sword Sect — Its ancestor offers the sect’s obedience after Lin Yu defeats it. Lin Yu instead reiterates the hall’s neutrality and warns against further provocation 26.

History

Establishment in the Eastern Wasteland

The Hongmeng System gives Lin Yu the hall and Hongmeng Mountain after his transmigration from Blue Star. Initially an ordinary mortal surrounded by dangerous wilderness, he remains at the mountain rather than attempting to travel. Yu Hongyan reaches the plaza while fleeing pursuit and becomes an early visitor 1.

The Eastern Wasteland Heaven’s Chosen Ranking introduces the hall to the public through saint-grade white jade steles in ten cities. Investigators cannot discover its location or membership, but battles among ranked cultivators establish the ranking’s accuracy. Yu Hongyan’s defeat of Yin Rushe helps bring the hall to its first documented level-up 7 8.

The hall’s reputation expands beyond rankings when cultivators learn that Cui Ranqing and Ancestor Qingyan visited it before attaining Sainthood. Their emergence prompts substantial offers for information about its location 33.

Conflict with Established Powers

The Supreme Sword Sect’s attempt to investigate the hall ends with the deaths of two elders and the Sword Saint Ancestor’s apology. Lin Yu declares that the rankings are impartial and that the hall will neither form alliances nor tolerate attacks 25 26.

Rankings covering the human race’s four domains expose information about the Four Domains Alliance, prompting an investigation by Saint King-level experts. Their subsequent encounter leaves the alliance’s elders acknowledging the hall’s terrifying strength 55 66.

The Demon Race rankings provoke a larger campaign. The Golden Peng Clan recruits ninety-eight other races, while the True Dragon Race refuses involvement. The resulting procession grows to millions of demons. After their defeat, Lin Yu spares the survivors but removes two cultivation levels from each; the confrontation supplies enough fame for the hall’s fourth level 72 73 84.

Expansion into the Star Domains

After leaving the Xuanxuan Plane, Lin Yu travels through the Mortal Star Domain aboard the concealed Hongmeng Mountain 93.

The Aurora Race offers an enormous bounty for the hall’s location and confirmation that the Great Dao has restricted its talent. The Darkness Clan follows with its own bounty, turning the search into a star-domain-wide craze. The Aurora Race even offers to place itself at the hall’s disposal if a solution can be provided 97.

The Special Physique Rankings extend the hall’s influence into the Wind and Cloud, Big Dipper, and Southern Heaven star domains. Their reception supplies the Fame Points for level five 132 134.

Southern Heaven Great Domain and the Immortal Worlds

The twelve public secret realms and arena events establish the hall as a source of cultivation opportunities throughout the Southern Heaven Great Domain. Entrants offer thanks and pledge service, while spectators also benefit from watching tournament battles 186 238.

Following the conflict with the Three Great Immortal Sects, the twelve Sequence Disciples leave to pursue their own paths. Lin Yu supplies protective communication tokens and promises the hall’s continued support 273.

In the Three Thousand Immortal Worlds, the disciples’ performances draw attention to their previously mysterious faction. Xu Ziyue’s display of numerous Origin Techniques and Lin Yu’s appearance against the Heavenly Dao establish its reputation on a much wider scale. The hall remains a major topic of discussion for three months, then releases the Great Dao Rankings across the worlds 363 369 370 376 377.

Its influence is not initially uniform: Feng Shenlang later observes that recognition remains concentrated in the Clear Void Immortal Domain when the Divine Sword Race bars his entry into the Weapon Immortal Realm’s forge 405.

Reputation in the Youming Immortal Realm

During Lin Yu’s travels in an earlier era, the local Hongmeng System lacks supporting treasures such as the hall and platform. The Primordial Hall’s name is correspondingly unfamiliar to cultivators there 602 711.

After the Twelve True Palaces disappear, Lin Yu leaves the hall’s name on the emptied land. Cultivators connect it with rumors involving the Archaic Phoenix Clan and the vanished Barren Desert. With the system unable to release the Primordial Rankings, the inscription becomes another means of spreading the hall’s reputation 717.
