This is so dishonest!

Chapter 493 What is Pangu Daluo? (Bonus Chapter)

After the demons finalized their next plan, everyone dispersed.

Just then, the [Wisdom Demon God] suddenly called out to the Heavenly Dao Spirit.

"Fellow Daoist of Balance".

She looked at the Heavenly Dao Spirit, her starry eyes, which seemed to be able to see through the origin of all things, were devoid of any emotional fluctuation, and her voice was cold and direct.

"I have something I'd like to ask."

The Heavenly Dao Spirit glanced at the [Wisdom Demon God] with surprise, then adopted a humble expression and said, "Fellow Daoist, please feel free to ask me anything."

The [Wise Demon God] said, "What I want to ask is the ultimate path that we demon gods pursue—the Chaos God Plan."

Do you have any new insights into this path?

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the entire strange space instantly plummeted to freezing point.

All the demons present, even the most volatile of them all, the Fire Demon, had their flames contained and their expressions had become extremely serious.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Dao Spirit's smile faded slightly.

He knew that the moment to truly test himself, and also this fragile alliance, had arrived.

He met the gaze of the [Wisdom Demon God], which seemed to see right through people, and calmly nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Wisdom, are you referring to the final choice between the two supreme paths, the 'God of Chaos' and the 'Great Luo Pangu'?"

The figure of the [Wisdom Demon God] shifted slightly, which could be considered as acquiescence.

Back then, in the Olympus universe, the reason why many of their Chaos Gods suffered a crushing defeat was not only because of the cunning and power of Taiwei Yuan and his gang.

The deeper reason lies within their own ranks.

Their seemingly grand "God of Chaos" plan, at its core, was to emulate Pangu and attempt to reunite the Great Dao of the three thousand demon gods into one, thereby creating a new supreme being that could rival or even surpass Pangu.

However, this plan contains a fatal contradiction.

That is--

Who will become the ultimate "God of Chaos"?
Whose Great Way will serve as the core of this new existence?

Whose will governs all of this?
Initially, they placed their hopes on Gaia, the Earth Demon God, and Mnemosyne, the Memory Demon God, attempting to use their representation of "bearing" and "memory" as the foundation for merging the Three Thousand Great Daos.

But as it turns out, this path is a dead end.

It's not just because their own strength and vision are far from reaching the level of Pangu.

Furthermore, none of the proud and arrogant Chaos Gods present could truly and willingly hand over their own Great Dao essence to others, becoming resources for others to prove their path.

It was precisely this deep-rooted, fundamental barrier of distrust that ultimately led to the failure of the entire plan.

All eyes were focused on the Heavenly Dao Essence.

They wanted to see how this former "Taoist Ancestor" would evaluate the plan.

Is it a complete rejection and starting from scratch?

However, to everyone's surprise.

Upon hearing this, Tiandao Jing showed no sign of difficulty or seriousness.

Instead, he chuckled softly.

That laughter was calm, composed, and full of boundless confidence.

“Fellow Daoist Wisdom, that is an excellent question.”

He slowly turned around, meeting the gazes of all the demons, his deep eyes gleaming with a dazzling light that was almost like the "Tao".

Why did the "God of Chaos" project fail?

Instead of answering directly, he threw out a question.

"Is it because Fellow Daoist Gaia is not strong enough? Or is it because Fellow Daoist Memory's planning was inadequate?"

"Do not."

He slowly shook his head.

"These are all just appearances."

"The real failure of everyone lies not in 'technique,' but in 'principle'!"

"The problem lies in the fact that from the very beginning, your understanding of 'Pangu,' 'Supreme,' and 'Unity' was flawed!"

His voice became loud and powerful, like the imperial decree of the Great Dao, resounding in the hearts of every demon god.

“We always subconsciously regard Pangu as an independent ‘individual’ that is above us!”

"Therefore, the 'God of Chaos' we envision is also a brand new 'King' who needs to be elected from among us!"

"This is the root of our failure!"

"Because this path, in essence, goes against the very nature of us Chaos Gods!"

"It requires us to abandon our ego in order to achieve a supreme 'other self'!"

"How could this possibly succeed?!"

The words of the Heavenly Dao Spirit were incisive and hit the nail on the head.

All the demons present couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Yes.

This was precisely the biggest problem they had in mind back then.

"Giving up oneself to achieve others"—isn't this a characteristic of the sacred and primordial world?
When did those Chaos Gods ever have such sentiments?
"but!"

Just when everyone thought that the essence of the Heavenly Dao had completely rejected this path.

His tone suddenly shifted, becoming impassioned and inflammatory!
"A misunderstanding does not mean that the path itself is wrong!"

"On the contrary!"

"The 'God of Chaos' project, with its core concept of 'unity,' is the only true path to eternal transcendence!"

"What we lack is not direction, but the right 'methodology'!"

"And this methodology was actually clearly shown to us by Pangu long ago!"

He opened his arms as if to embrace the entire strange space.

His face, which had been blurry, became incredibly clear and dazzling at this moment because of his extreme confidence and fervor!
Why was Pangu so powerful?

He posed a thought-provoking question.

"Is it because his path of power surpasses the paths of our three thousand demon gods that he is invincible?"

"Yes, but not entirely!"

He asked himself the question and answered it.

"Fellow Daoists, we have all been deceived by Pangu's 'domineering' appearance of creating the world!"

"We only saw his 'power' in killing us, but we never truly learned his 'Tao' of transforming into all things!"

"Isn't the path of Pangu Da Luo that he follows essentially a kind of 'unity'?"

"However, what he combined was not the power of three thousand demon gods forcibly condensed into one body!"

"Instead, he transformed his own 'Pangu-like' nature into countless parts and scattered them throughout the entire era he created!"

The demons whispered, "Pangu's nature?"

The Heavenly Dao Spirit nodded solemnly: "Yes, this is also where Pangu's true power lies—he can transform 'one' into 'infinite' Dao!"

"Although Pangu transformed into all things, his Great Dao, his spirit, and his 'Pangu nature' were all integrated into every flower, leaf, mountain, stone, grass, and tree in the primordial era."

“Every primordial being who, through their own efforts, continuously breaks through barriers and ultimately attains the Great Luo Dao Fruit, will, to varying degrees, possess a trace of the characteristics of 'Pangu'!”

"The Three Pure Ones are Pangu, the Twelve Ancestral Witches are Pangu, and even those Taiwei Gods who are our enemies can also be Pangu!"

The Heavenly Dao Spirit looked around at the many demons and gods, and then he delivered a passionate speech.

"The most terrifying and greatest thing about Pangu is that he turned his 'Tao' into a grand 'crowdfunding' open to all living beings!"

"The rise of every powerful figure in later generations, the progress of every era of civilization, and the development of every great path all contribute to his 'Pangu Great Path,' making it more perfect and more powerful!" "He will grow stronger and stronger as the era continues to develop!"

"Only in this way can one attain supreme transcendence!"

"Only in this way can one attain the Great Luo Path of Pangu!"

The Heavenly Dao Essence's analysis was like a bolt of lightning, completely shattering the fog that had obscured the hearts of all the Chaos Gods for billions of years, a fog that had been clouded by pride and hatred.

A look of shock crossed their faces.

It was as if, at this moment, they had truly glimpsed the tip of the iceberg of their arch-enemy.

"so……"

A Chaos God spoke, his voice trembling slightly.

"Can we never defeat Pangu?"

"of course not!"

The Heavenly Dao Spirit categorically denied it.

“I said, you shouldn’t regard Pangu as an insurmountable individual.”

"In this era, 'Pangu' is merely a direction, a supreme term composed of countless sacred paths leading forward, infinite hope, and infinite possibilities!"

"If the Chaos God truly has no hope in this era, then no one will be able to revive."

“If Pangu really intended to persecute you, then in the Olympian universe, the God of Chaos would not have attracted Pangu’s mark, and you would not have received the corresponding compensation.”

"Therefore, our enemies have always been the gods of Taiwei and all the primordial gods, not Pangu himself."

This touched the hearts of many demons and gods.

"what do you mean……"

"What I mean is that the path of the [God of Chaos] can continue, and can be taken even further."

Tiandao Jing nodded heavily. At this moment, his eyes became as deep as a black hole, as if he wanted to suck everyone's mind into them.

"We need to give it a complete upgrade and a complete overhaul!"

“Pangu has his own [Pangu Daluo].

“We must have our own [Demon God Da Luo].

He extended a finger and pointed at each of the demons present.

"We no longer need to elect a new 'king'!"

"Because each and every one of us will become a part of the [God of Chaos]!"

"The Great Dao of our three thousand Demon Gods will together constitute the supreme Heavenly Dao Law of our [True Realm of Demon Gods]!"

He then pointed to the newly born demon gods that were in the process of being conceived.

"These young people we are nurturing, the rising stars of this new era, will also be part of the [Gods of Chaos]!"

His gaze seemed to pierce through endless time and space, looking towards that incomparably prosperous primordial true world.

“In the future, every primordial creature we will ‘infect,’ every rebel who defies the Pangu order, and every one of those who will be ‘corrupted,’ turn against, or support.”

"They will all be an indispensable part of the [Gods of Chaos]."

“We will no longer be isolated, powerful ‘individuals’.”

"We will together form a vast, all-encompassing, and great 'collective of demons and gods' that is in opposition to 'Pangu'."

"Each of us is an independent self."

"But the will of all of us and the Great Dao, when combined, become the supreme and unique [God of Chaos]."

"By then!"

The voice of the Heavenly Dao Essence had taken on a sacred tremor.

"He is Pangu, and he has his 'Pangu Team'."

“We have our own ‘Avengers’.”

"Two supreme entities, two great civilizations, are about to engage in their final, destiny-bound showdown."

"This is the true path of transcendence that we, the Chaos Gods, should take."

"This is the ultimate path that I have planned for all of you fellow Daoists."

After he finished speaking, the entire strange space fell into a deathly silence.

Immediately, an unprecedented wave of will erupted!
"Excellent! What a magnificent [Demon God Great Luo]!"

"What a magnificent ultimate path!"

The Fire Demon God was the first to stand up. The flames of the end around him burned fiercely due to extreme excitement, almost setting the entire space ablaze!

"This is the spirit and path that we demon gods should have."

"Everyone is a god of chaos!"

"Hahaha, brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"

The other Chaos Gods also gradually recovered from their shock.

The fear and doubt in their eyes disappeared.

Instead, the flames of hope and ambition were ignited!
The Daoist theory of the Heavenly Dao Essence solved the pain points of all of them.

It fulfilled their ultimate dream of pursuing "unity" and fighting against Pangu.

They also preserved the dignity and pride of each of their demon gods as independent individuals.

This is practically a golden road tailor-made for them, the Chaos Gods!
The Wise Demon God gave the Heavenly Dao Spirit a deep look.

Her figure, shrouded in starlight, bowed to the Heavenly Dao Spirit.

"The return of Fellow Daoist Balance is truly a blessing for the Chaos Demon God!"

The Heavenly Dao Spirit smiled slightly.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to praise me so much."

"As I said, our relationship is mutually beneficial and win-win."

"Helping everyone resolve their doubts and remove obstacles to progress on the path is also helping myself."

Deep within the Heavenly Dao Essence's sea of ​​consciousness.

The Primordial Incarnation largely agrees with the Heavenly Dao Essence's discussions on the "God of Chaos," especially on the "Pangu Daluo."

After all, this is the current state of the Great Dao deduction in the Primordial True Realm—Pangu is for all living beings, and all living beings are for Pangu.

This is also the essence of Xuanqing's "Five Great Dao Attainment" method.

Everyone is searching for "existence" and "non-existence" on their own paths, isn't the goal to become a unique Pangu?
"As expected of a being created by Taiwei and Hongjun together."

[Primordial Incarnation] Looking at the Heavenly Dao Spirit that was increasingly resembling Hongjun, he couldn't help but nod:
"This guy's understanding of the Great Dao is truly extraordinary."

"Under such circumstances, it actually helped the demons correct their path and find a direction to move forward?"

The existence of the Heavenly Dao Essence is very special.

He is a spirit born from the primordial Heavenly Dao.

He not only received Hongjun's inheritance but also absorbed the wisdom of the Great Dao from the Taiwei Gods. At the same time, he could also possess the vision of the Chaos God as the [Balance Demon God].

It is no exaggeration to say that the current Heavenly Dao Essence possesses the foundation of both the old and new eras.

That is why Xuanqing made an exception for him and let the Heavenly Dao Essence go.

This guy is practically the perfect candidate to push forward the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods.
