Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

After bidding farewell to the Ancestral Dragon, Huanglong refused the earnest invitation from Ao Qian, the Dragon King of the East Sea, and rode slowly towards Shouyang Mountain on a cloud.

Beneath our feet, the vibrant mountains resemble a giant dragon coiled up.

Great rivers meander across the land, some surging and rushing into the sea, others as calm as a mirror, reflecting the sky.

Huanglong stood atop the clouds, gazing at the vast and magnificent prehistoric world before him, yet his heart remained restless for a long time.

As he left, Zu Long's words kept echoing in his mind.

The mystery of how the universe operates lies in the fact that a small matter can trigger a tremendous change, and a seemingly insignificant action can alter the fate of billions of lives.

The Lich Wars have ended.

When Mount Buzhou was reached, the sky leaked, the Weak Water raged, and the Wu and Yao races withdrew from the stage of the prehistoric world.

These results remain unchanged.

However, there are some differences in the details.

The Ancestral Dragon is still here, the Primordial Phoenix is ​​still here, and the Sea Eye and the Undying Volcano are still operating, providing the primordial world with a continuous stream of innate spiritual energy.

So, will the future of the primordial world be different?

While I was pondering this...!

Suddenly, the heavens and earth trembled.

The tremor came without warning, yet it was extremely violent, as if an invisible giant hand was violently shaking the entire primordial world.

The auspicious clouds beneath Huanglong's feet instantly dissipated. He swayed, quickly regained his balance, and hovered in the void.

What's going on?

Huanglong suddenly looked up at the sky, his pupils contracting sharply.

At that moment, the great sun, radiating boundless light, was surrounded by countless stars that stretched across the sky, twinkling wildly.

The laws of the stars are in complete disarray.

Chaotic stellar energy poured down from the heavens, washing over the primordial land.

On the earth, billions of living beings sensed the incredibly dense power of the stars and all cried out!

They seemed to think this was a gift from Heaven.

Huanglong stood in the void, gazing at the chaotic laws of the stars and sensing the rich power of the stars. Suddenly, a strange palpitation welled up in his heart.

It was a fear that came from the depths of his soul, as if something extremely terrible was happening and he was powerless to do anything about it.

really!

The next moment, the stars began to twinkle, and the celestial stars, releasing their power, suddenly burst forth with an unprecedentedly brilliant light.

In that instant, stars of all colors intertwined to form a dazzling sea of ​​light!

The brilliance of that light was unprecedented; the stars in the sky seemed to be vying with the sun and moon for radiance!

However, in the next instant, the brilliant starlight suddenly dimmed, and the sun's radiance once again filled the sky.

One star dims, then two, then ten, then a hundred!

Like the receding tide, like the extinguishing of a lamp.

Those stars formed from Pangu's blood orifices, after shining with a light far exceeding that of the Taiyin and Taiyang stars, dimmed one by one, as if they had lost their life, and turned into lifeless stones, hanging in the nine heavens.

The starlight has vanished!

Those stars that had illuminated the primordial world since the beginning of time vanished completely from the sight of all living beings at this moment.

Only a few stars, though not extinguished, shone like candles flickering in the wind.

Huanglong stood in the void, his heart filled with unparalleled shock.

He gazed across the vast expanse of space at the dim starry sky, at the lifeless stars, speechless for a long time.

However, the changes were not over.

The next moment, the entire prehistoric world suddenly trembled.

The tremor was different from the oscillations that occurred when the laws of the stars were disordered; it was a deeper and more profound vibration.

Immediately afterwards, strange fluctuations surged from the depths of the earth, spreading towards the dim stars in the heavens.

The fluctuations were invisible and intangible, yet clearly perceptible.

It passed through the clouds, through the gales, through the void, and finally disappeared into those dim stars.

Huanglong focused his mind and sensed that as the fluctuations spread, the innate spiritual energy in the world was slowly decreasing.

That reduction is not because a particular being absorbed too much, leading to a local shortage of spiritual energy.

Rather, the concentration of innate spiritual energy throughout the entire universe is decreasing synchronously and continuously.

It was as if an invisible giant maw was devouring the innate spiritual energy between heaven and earth and transporting it elsewhere.

The power of Huanglong's primordial spirit reached out, covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of miles.

Sure enough, those inexplicable fluctuations surging from the depths of the earth each time would take away a massive amount of innate spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy traversed endless distances, eventually disappearing into the dim stars.

The primordial spiritual energy between heaven and earth is being drawn by an unparalleled power to replenish the damaged stars.

"I see!"

Huang Long muttered to himself, a vague guess forming in his mind.

He raised his hand and tore open a spatial rift, stepping into it.

Shouyang Mountain Eight Outer Gates!

When Huanglong stepped out of the spatial rift, the scene before him gave him a slight shock.

Above Shouyang Mountain, in the void, the majestic figures of the Three Pure Ones stood side by side.

Behind the Three Pure Ones, a group of disciples of the sages stood solemnly.

Everyone looked up at the extinguished stars, and all was silent.

Huanglong flashed to the front of the Three Pure Ones and bowed in respect.

"Disciple Huanglong greets Grand Master Uncle, Master, and Uncle-Master."

Upon hearing this, the Three Pure Ones lowered their heads slightly and looked at the Yellow Dragon.

The Three Pure Ones glanced at the Yellow Dragon, then looked up at the endless starry sky.

"Get up!" said the Primordial Celestial Venerable in a gentle voice.

Huang Long stood up and retreated among the disciples, waiting quietly like everyone else.

Time passed slowly.

After an unknown amount of time, the Three Pure Ones finally withdrew their gaze.

The Sage of Taiqing sighed softly, waved his sleeve, and took the lead in descending towards the Eight Views Palace. The Primordial Heavenly Venerable and the Master of Tongtian followed closely behind, their expressions varying.

Upon seeing this, the disciples quickly followed.

Inside the Eight Views Palace, the Three Pure Ones took their seats on the cloud beds in turn.

Looking at Huang Long and the others, the Sage of Taiqing turned his head, and futons immediately appeared on the ground.

"sit!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Long and the other disciples bowed to the Sage Taiqing and took their seats in turn.

After everyone was seated, the Sage Taiqing suddenly spoke.

"What questions do you have?"

His voice was calm and gentle, like an elder asking a younger person a question.

But beneath this calm, a profound meaning is subtly revealed.

What surprised Huanglong even more was that this time it was the Taiqing Sage who spoke first.

It should be known that the Sage of Taiqing is always quiet and inactive, rarely speaks on his own initiative, and would never ask his disciples if they have any questions.

Back when they were at Kunlun Mountain, whenever they preached or answered questions, it was always Yuanshi Tianzun who presided over the ceremony, while Taiqing Shengren mostly just sat quietly with his eyes closed, without saying a word.

But today, he was the first to speak.

Xuandu, Guangchengzi, Duobao, and the other disciples looked at each other but remained silent.

Today's events were too sudden and too shocking. Although they had countless questions in their hearts, they did not know how to ask them.
