Chapter 371: Infinite Tribulation, Opportunity for Transcendence
The Witch Clan became the orthodox in the Primordial World, while the Taoist sects, Buddhist sects, and the Human Race retreated and perfected their own Great Dao within the "Chaos Pearl."
This Chaos Treasure contains a complete Chaotic Universe, but its Three Thousand Great Dao are slightly weaker than that of a true universe. Below the level of Saints, it is more than sufficient for comprehension; however, above Saints, one must obtain the approval of Fu Min, the Governor of this "Chaos Pearl," to gain insight.
Currently, the Taoist and Buddhist sects, the Human Race, along with Primordial Daluo Golden Immortals like Minghe and Kunpeng, are all linked by the same fate, sharing weal and woe. Naturally, Fu Min will not make things difficult for them in this regard.
After some discussion, it was decided that the other Saints would be responsible for establishing a new order within the "Chaos Pearl," while the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin, Kunpeng, and Minghe, the supreme powerhouses who had comprehended more than a thousand Principles, aimed to quickly elevate their cultivation of the Great Dao to the level of the Great Dao General.
Among the Primordial Saints, without anyone having achieved the Great Dao General, the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortals of various factions chose to temporarily lie dormant.
"Alas!"
The Minghe Daoist couldn't help but sigh.
His cultivation of the Killing Great Dao made it difficult for him to calm down like the others; only through constant slaughter could the Killing Great Dao potentially transform.
Seeing the continuous progress of the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin, and Kunpeng, he felt helpless, knowing that it would be challenging to achieve the Great Dao General in this era and then compete for that slim chance of transcendence.
Of course, he had also attempted to engage in battles with Chaos Demon Gods simulated by Kunpeng's Dream Dao, but he never found that real intent of slaughter.
Although Jieyin Daoist achieved the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal through the Silent Annihilation Great Dao, he was aware of its limited potential, choosing to break and rebuild, integrating various Daos and evolving the Supreme Buddha's Dao.
He originally had a foundation for this, and the process was quite smooth, but the fall of Zhunti Daoist left a small flaw in his Buddha Heart.
After endless years, he too had comprehended the Three Thousand Great Dao, but because of that flaw, he could not complete the final transformation of the Buddha Tao.
The Three Pure Ones were quite successful in this regard, especially Taiqing Master, who in a state of tranquility and inaction, used the Taiji Great Dao as a guide to reverse the state before Taiwu, comprehending the Taixu Great Dao, Tai Shi Great Dao, Tai Chu Great Dao, and Taiyi Great Dao, bringing his own essence closer to nothingness. Indeed, he resembled the demeanor of the Daoist Ancestor Hong Jun of yesteryear.
He was also pursuing the path of seeking emptiness through reduction.
As for Yuanshi Tianzun, before integrating the various Daos, he chose to again slash the Three Corpses, abandoning the original Three Corpses, and then using the Heavenly Creation Three Treasures as a base, he slashed out new Three Corpses, and subsequently refined a complete "Heavenly Creation Divine Axe!"
Taiqing Master and Tongtian Sect Master didn't hesitate. After pondering for a moment, they handed over the "Tai Chi Diagram" and the "Chaos Bell" to Yuanshi Tianzun.
Yuanshi Tianzun aspired to replace Pangu. Naturally, he had to ensure he wasn't contaminated by Pangu's Dao. With the Chopper Soul of the "Heavenly Creation Divine Axe" in Pangu's hands, he might as well become the new Chopper Soul himself, letting his own Great Dao seamlessly merge with this Chaos Treasure.
Tongtian Sect Master, having achieved Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal status through the Sword Dao, is inherently a Chaos Spirit Root, possessing the highest destructive power and the deepest foundation among the Three Pure Ones.
Additionally, due to his symbolic meaning as the "end of all things," as the Infinite Tribulation approaches, his power increases daily, inexplicably bolstered by the power of the End of Tribulation.
Kunpeng's strength, with the continuous improvement of the Dream Dao, also advanced by leaps and bounds.
At this moment, even if Xuanqing retracts the three Chaos Treasures he loaned, Kunpeng could still use the Dream Dao to manifest the power of the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Paths.
However, like Jieyin Daoist, he's stuck at the final step; although he has comprehended the Three Thousand Great Dao, he hasn't transformed it into the Great Dao General.
Meanwhile, within the Primordial World, the Witch Clan governs everything, leveraging the entire Primordial World's resources, leading to the birth of over a hundred Primordials over countless eons.
Unprecedented in strength!
Many reincarnations of the Chaos Demon Gods have been absorbed into the Witch Clan, and those unwilling to join have completely integrated into the Primordial True Realm.
Under such circumstances, those reincarnations of the Chaos Demon Gods naturally know... what choice to make?
However, the Witch Clan's complete dominance also made the Primordial World lose its former energy of contending Daos, which fueled the vigorous development of billions of Primordial beings.
This is not a good thing!
During billions of kalpas, the Primordial World became like stagnant water, only producing a few ripples when the Witch Clan beings attained the Dao.
The Tribulation Qi in the world grew denser, and without external enemies, various Witch Clan tribes and Ancestor Witches began sparking various conflicts.
Yet, with Pangu's will present and Houtu and others strongly suppressing them, these struggles did not cause much disturbance in the Primordial World.
On this day, in the "Pangu Temple," countless Principles intertwined, outlining Pangu's Taoist Body, exuding an infinite and boundless aura.
"Father God!"
Houtu and others were incredibly excited.
This was not the true Pangu, but a Taoist Body that Pangu evolved using the Power Great Dao, indicative that Pangu was about to return!
And this Taoist Body did not communicate with Houtu and others, only slightly nodded before breaking through the void, disappearing into the vast Primordial True Realm.
With Xuanqing's interference, expecting Houtu and others to slay the Three Pure Ones and recover Pangu Primordial Spirit is somewhat unrealistic, so he could only take action personally.
