Primordial Era: Cultivation level equals the sum of the Jie Sect's total; the Three Pure Ones a

The causal thunderclouds slowly dissipated.

Xuan Du stood in the void, his blue robes completely shattered, revealing his true martial form, which was covered in chaotic runes.

The purplish-gold primordial blood seeped from the ruptured wound, its breath slightly disordered, yet its eyes... shone ever brighter, ever more resolute.

The eight tribulations have passed.

Only... the final calamity remains.

The Great Judgment!

"Buzz..."

The entire primordial world fell into complete silence at this moment.

The chaotic thunderclouds ceased to churn, and the chains of law ceased to intertwine.

Only an indescribable and unfathomable supreme will slowly descended from the void.

That will was formless and intangible, yet it caused all living beings, from ants to saints, to feel it and involuntarily... kneel down!

The Great Dao... has descended.

"Finally...it's here."

Xuan Du slowly raised his head, looking at the invisible supreme will, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

A century of cultivation, a century of planning, a century of conquest.

Today... the outcome will finally be revealed.

The Great Judgment.

If one can overcome this obstacle, the position of Hunyuan Daluo will be completely secured, martial arts will be immortal, and the human race will prosper.

If one cannot overcome this... one will die and one's spiritual path will vanish, never to be recovered, and all will become nothing.

"bring it on."

Xuan Du spoke softly, his voice like a murmur, yet carrying an undeniable resolve:

"Let me see... what this Great Dao truly... judges!"

The words fell.

"boom!!!"

An indescribable, unpredictable, and irresistible... invisible calamity descended fiercely from the void!

It was not thunder, not fire, not anything tangible.

Rather... it is the Great Dao itself, the final judgment upon those who transcend!

Judge its principles, judge its heart, judge its meaning of existence!

Xuan Du's body trembled violently!

The martial arts true body crumbled inch by inch, the chaotic runes flickered wildly, and the original rune of the martial arts law deep in the Purple Mansion... began to slowly fade and dissipate!

Under the judgment of the Great Dao, all laws and all existence must... return to nothingness!

"Xuan Du!!!"

At the summit of Jin'ao Island, the Tongtian Sect Leader's eyes were bloodshot with rage. The phantom of the Qingping Sword suddenly erupted, and he was about to attack without regard for anything else!

however!

"Master."

Xuan Du's voice, however, rang out clearly at this moment, calm and undisturbed:

"This calamity... I will end it myself."

The words fell.

Xuandu slowly closed his eyes.

His mind sank completely into the depths of his Purple Mansion, into the martial arts rune that was about to dissipate.

Martial arts is a path he created himself.

People-oriented, strength-based, and combat-focused.

This path does not rely on external things, nor on the ways of heaven; it only relies on self-confidence and is invincible in battle.

And now...

The Great Judgment will erase this path, and erase him, the ancestor of martial arts.

How could he possibly agree to that?

"Martial Arts..."

Xuan Du whispered to himself, completely merging with the rune:

"I will establish you for a hundred years, pass on the human race, gather your fortune, and solidify your laws..."

"Today, the Great Dao judges, and intends to erase you..."

"Are you... willing to accept this?"

The runes trembled slightly.

As if in response.

Unwilling!

"Then..."

Xuan Du's mind suddenly sharpened:

"war!"

"With my blood, I will temper your blade!"

"With my soul, I forge your soul!"

"With my way, I will prove your...immortality!"

"boom!!!"

Deep within the Purple Mansion, the martial arts rune that was about to dissipate suddenly shone brightly!

The chaotic martial will erupted like a volcano, fiercely breaking through the invisible suppression of the Great Dao Judgment!

Outside Xuan Du's body, the shattered martial arts true body began to heal rapidly, the chaotic runes became more and more brilliant, and the primordial Dao charm became more and more refined!

What shocked everyone even more was...

That invisible power of the Great Dao's judgment was actually forced back by the martial will!

"Martial arts...immortality!"

Xuan Du suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with chaotic light that flowed like a galaxy, and his voice shook the primordial world:

"Even the Great Dao... cannot be judged!"

The four words, uttered, were like a decree from the Great Dao!

"Buzz..."

In the darkness, that supreme will of the Great Dao... slowly receded.

The trial... is over.

Xuan Du... held on.

Having survived the nine tribulations, the Primordial Grand Luo Realm is now completely stable!

"boom!!!"

The entire primordial world resonated with it at this moment!

On the shore of the East China Sea, the Martial Dao Stele suddenly trembled violently, and the two characters "Martial Dao" on the stele shone brightly, with faint patterns of the Great Dao appearing, echoing the martial Dao runes around Xuan Du!

Beneath the monument, billions of humans simultaneously felt a surge of emotion and roared to the heavens in unison:

"Congratulations, Master... on attaining the Great Luo Primordial Dao!!!"

The sound waves surged like a tide, the blood and qi surged like a dragon, and the will was like a sword, piercing through heaven and earth!

Outside Jin'ao Island.

The five sages had different expressions.

The Celestial Lord of the Primordial Beginning's face was ashen, and the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his sleeve trembled with a buzzing sound, but in the end... he did not make another move.

Lao Tzu's eyes were gloomy as he slowly closed them, his body surrounded by flickering purple energy.

Nuwa's eyes shone brightly, the Creation Stone in her hand was as warm as the sun, and she sighed softly:

"The primordial world... is truly about to change."

Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance, both seeing the... gravity and calculation in each other's eyes.

Xuan Du attained the Dao of Hunyuan Daluo, having survived nine tribulations, achieving immortality in martial arts.

From this point onward... the entire primordial order will be completely rewritten.

And this moment.

Xuandu stood in the void and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

His body was surrounded by chaotic light, martial arts runes were hidden, and the primordial Daoist charm was contained within.

He looked up at the gradually dissipating chaotic thunderclouds, and a smile slowly crept onto his lips.

A century of planning has finally come to fruition today.

The Primordial Golden Immortal... has been achieved.

The immortality of martial arts... is achieved.

The human race is destined to rise... and so it has come to pass.

"Buzz..."

Deep within the void, an unparalleled Daoist aura, more vast, profound, and ineffable than the will of Heaven, quietly descended.

There was no oppressive force, no unusual phenomena.

There wasn't even any real perception.

Yet countless beings in the primordial world, from ants to sages, all felt something at this moment and involuntarily looked up at the sky.

Looking towards that... ineffable existence.

Avenue.

It has not completely left.

It reappears after the thunderclouds have dispersed.

"This is......"

The Tongtian Sect Leader's gaze suddenly sharpened as he stared intently at the seemingly empty void above Lingyun Peak.

He sensed it.

A pure and unparalleled power was quietly gathering in that void.

That is not spiritual energy, not laws, and certainly not any primordial energy.

That is... the origin of the Great Dao!

"The Great Dao...merit?!"

Lao Tzu's pupils constricted sharply, and for the first time, a clear look of horror and...jealousy appeared on his ancient and unadorned face!

Yes, jealousy!

As the head of the Three Pure Ones and the senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect, he was born at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth. He achieved the position of Heavenly Saint by virtue of the creation of heaven and the fortune of establishing the sect, and enjoys endless years of respect.

Even he had never seen such pure and magnificent Great Dao merit!

In the past, when the Father God Pangu created the world, he transformed into all things. The Great Dao favored him and bestowed upon him the merit of creating the world.

The Three Pure Ones were transformed from the primordial spirit of Pangu. Each of them received a portion of it, and through this they established their religion, became saints, and laid the foundation for the Xuanmen (Taoist) sect.

But that merit... had long been exhausted over the endless years, becoming the foundation of their saintly achievements, and could never be reproduced again.

And now...

Xuan Du had not even reached the Transcendental Grand Luo Realm, yet the Great Dao bestowed such a massive amount of merit?!

"The Great Dao's merit... it really is the Great Dao's merit..."

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning's face turned ashen, and the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his sleeve trembled with a buzzing sound, almost slipping out of his hand.

He stared intently at the void, golden flames flickering wildly in his eyes, jealousy and resentment nearly overwhelming his Dao heart.

On what grounds?

Xuan Du, a mere junior, has only cultivated for a hundred years, yet he defied the heavens and created his own martial arts. Now, as he transcends the tribulation to become a Grand Luo Immortal, he is able to draw down merit from the Great Dao.

As for Yuanshi, who was in charge of the Chan Sect and taught all living beings, he could only rely on the last remaining merit of the creation of the world to maintain his holy position.

This is unfair!

Nuwa's eyes were filled with complex emotions, and the Creation Stone in her hand shimmered with light, subtly resonating with the accumulated merits of the Great Dao.

She could clearly perceive the immense vitality and the origin of the Great Dao contained within that merit.

If she can receive this blessing, her path to destiny may be able to advance further.

pity......

This merit belongs to Xuandu.

"This child... has an exceptionally strong destiny."

As he chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice, the look of suffering in his eyes deepened.

"With the merits of the Great Dao bestowed upon him, from then on, no one in the primordial world could easily harm him."

Zhunti's expression was also grim, and the Seven Treasures Tree in his hand flickered with light.

"Senior brother, is it truly impossible for us in the West to have such an opportunity?"
