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

On the edge of chaos.

The void churned, and fierce winds raged.

A figure in green robes slowly emerged from the ripples, standing with his hands behind his back.

Her green robe fluttered slightly, and her black hair cascaded over her shoulders.

Xuan Du raised his eyes and gazed at the surging chaotic energy in front of him.

The aura was ancient and vast, with billions of years of deathly stillness flowing within it.

He didn't rush in, but just stood there quietly.

His gaze pierced through layers of chaos, landing in that endless depth.

"Fellow Daoist Yangmei."

He spoke in a low voice, not loud, but clearly penetrating the chaotic energy and spreading towards that unknowable depths.

"The disciple has arrived."

As the three words fell, the surging chaotic energy suddenly calmed down.

It was as if the eternal stillness trembled slightly for a moment upon hearing those three words.

Xuandu stood on the edge of chaos, waiting patiently.

A moment later, the void rippled silently.

A bluish-gray figure slowly materialized from the surging chaotic energy.

With a slender face and tall stature, he wore a gray-blue Taoist robe that hung down his back. He exuded no aura of power, yet the void beneath his feet automatically solidified.

Yangmei Daoren.

He stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at Xuan Du. Deep within his calm eyes, however, lay a faint trace of gentleness.

"You've arrived."

Xuan Du bowed slightly.

"I said I would come to express my gratitude."

"By the way, let's see where the Dao Ancestor Hongjun is now."

"Thank you for your trouble, fellow Daoist."

Yang Mei looked at him, remained silent for a moment, and then a smile appeared on her lips.

"He is deep within chaos."

"The Eye of Heaven has been frozen in place by me and cannot return on its own."

"His essence is burning, his power is draining away."

"His breath grew weaker and weaker, more and more scattered, and fainter and fainter."

"Within a single cycle, it will completely dissipate into chaos."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Du's eyes flickered slightly.

"Completely dissipated?"

"He is a supreme being at the peak of the half-step Heavenly Dao, wielding the Jade Disc of Creation."

"Even if the Heavenly Dao collapses, it should not dissipate so easily."

Yang Mei gently shook her head.

"Precisely because he is half a step into the Heavenly Dao."

"It is precisely because he embodies the Way of Heaven."

"The moment the Heavenly Dao collapsed, his foundation was severed."

"When he burned his source to break through, he had already consumed most of his foundation."

"In addition, when you and I dragged him into the chaotic rift, the spatial power tore away most of his remaining essence."

"Now he is nothing more than a candle flickering in the wind."

"It will surely disperse within the Yuanhui period."

Xuandu remained silent.

He looked at Yang Mei, at that lean yet resolute face.

The huge weight that had been hanging over my heart for so long finally lifted.

Hongjun Daozu is truly about to disappear.

The Way of Heaven has collapsed, all the sages have perished, and Hongjun is about to disperse.

From this moment on, the Heavenly Dao will no longer be the sole supreme Dao among the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

The three-way balance was officially established.

"Thank you for informing me, fellow Daoist."

Xuandu bowed again.

Yang Mei waved her hand.

"No need for thanks."

"You calculated the cause and effect for me, and I sent Hongjun away for you."

"We're even."

He paused, his gaze deepening slightly.

"However, there is one thing I must remind you of."

Xuandu looked up: "Fellow Daoist, please speak."

Yang Mei looked at him and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Although the Heavenly Dao has collapsed, its origin has not completely disappeared."

"It is still in the primordial wilderness, sleeping deep within the Purple Cloud Palace."

"If someone awakens it, the way of Heaven will be restored."

"At that time, although Hongjun will die, the Heavenly Dao will not die."

"The destiny of that billion-dollar gathering will return."

Upon hearing this, Xuandu smiled slightly, a faint smile that conveyed a profound understanding of all things.

"I am already aware of this matter."

"The ways of Heaven may be restored, but so what?"

"The Way of Earth and the Way of Humanity are now stable, and the balance of the three paths has been initially established. The power of the Way of Heaven is less than 30% of its peak."

"Even if someone were to awaken it, it would only mean reopening those gray eyes."

"At that time, the Earth Goddess will be in charge of the underground world, the Nine Sages of the Human Realm will be in charge of the human race, and the Ten Thousand Immortals of the Intercepting Sect will guard the prehistoric world."

"Even if the laws of nature are restored, it is nothing more than a prolongation of life."

"Even if a fixed order is established, it cannot suppress the principles of humanity and the way of nature."

"not to mention......"

He paused, his gaze deepening slightly.

"This disciple will not allow it to revive easily."

Yang Mei looked at him, at his young yet composed face, and at his calm yet determined eyes.

A moment of silence.

Then, he sighed softly.

The sigh was soft, yet it carried a sense of melancholy that billions of dollars would eventually be lost.

"I was overthinking it."

"You have calculated everything perfectly, proceeding step by step with meticulous care."

"Even something as simple as the restoration of the Heavenly Way, you probably already had plans for it."

"This humble Taoist priest truly needs no further explanation."

Xuan Du bowed slightly.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me."

"I was merely going with the flow."

"The Heavenly Way has collapsed, and the Three Ways are now in balance; this is the inevitable trend."

"All I can do is ensure that this trend proceeds steadily and for a longer period of time."

"As for the restoration of the Heavenly Way..."

He raised his head, gazing at the surging chaotic energy, at the endless depths.

"As long as the disciple is still here, it cannot overturn the heavens."

Yang Mei gazed at him for a long time before slowly nodding.

"it is good."

"In that case, I am relieved."

"Things have come to this, it's time for this humble Taoist to leave."

He turned around, stood with his hands behind his back in the chaos, his gray-blue Taoist robe fluttering slightly in the gale.

The figure appeared and disappeared amidst the surging chaotic energy.

"Xuan Du, do you know why I am leaving?"

Xuan Du looked at him, his eyes flickering slightly.

"Fellow Daoist, are you seeking an opportunity for a breakthrough?"

Yang Mei nodded.

"good."

"In the primordial world, the three balances were initially established, and order gradually stabilized."

"But the primordial world is just the primordial world; it is ultimately just one world."

"I am a Chaos Demon God who attained enlightenment. I was born in chaos and grew up in chaos."

"For me, the primordial wilderness is merely a temporary dwelling place."

"The true path lies in the depths of chaos."

He paused, his voice deepening.

"Moreover, you are now at the peak of the ninth level of the Primordial Great Luo Realm, and your cultivation has reached the limit of the Primordial World."

"Even with the blessing of the Eye of Humanity and the Eye of Earth, it is still only the threshold of half a step into the Chaos Taiji."

Your breakthrough opportunity is not in the primordial chaos.

"In the midst of chaos."

"In that wider world."

Xuan Du was shocked upon hearing this.

A sudden burst of light shone from the depths of those calm eyes.

An opportunity for a breakthrough.

Not in the primordial wilderness.

In the midst of chaos.

He fell silent, gazing at Yang Mei, at that lean yet profound face, at those calm yet all-seeing eyes.

"What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"

Yang Mei looked at him and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Do you know about the Xuanji Heavenly Domain?"

Xuan Du's pupils contracted slightly.

He certainly knew about the Xuanji Heavenly Domain.

That was the Heavenly Domain where Shen Ni once resided.

After he subdued the four ferocious beasts, Shenni chased after him from the depths of chaos.

That ferocious beast king came from the Xuanji Heaven Domain.

That is the dwelling place of the Chaos Gods, a realm that only Primordial Golden Immortals can set foot in.

It is a vast and expansive world beyond the primordial wilderness.

"This disciple understands."

Xuan Du spoke, his voice low and deep.

"Shennie came from the Xuanji Heavenly Domain."

"I only managed to subdue him by using the karma of the four ferocious beasts to lure him out of that celestial realm."
