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

Xuan Du was overwhelmed with indescribable emotions.

He originally thought that after taking Cangxuan and Qingmu as disciples, Ji Ju would directly break through to the Great Perfection of Chaos Demon God.

However, even with the combined feedback from the two half-step Hunyuan Taiji practitioners, there was still a slight difference.

That thread was so fine that he could barely perceive it.

But that one thread blocked all his paths to Hunyuan Taiji.

He had already prepared himself for Taixu's return, but he never expected Shenni to give him such a huge surprise.

On the central floating continent, tens of thousands of cultivators are continuously pouring into the threshold of the Jie Sect's branch sect.

Some of those cultivators possessed profound cultivation and extraordinary backgrounds.

Some have low cultivation levels and mediocre backgrounds.

Regardless of whether one is highly skilled or mediocre, as long as one joins the Jie Sect, the system will provide feedback.

Even the smallest amount, if accumulated, is enough to fill that tiny, thread-like ravine.

Xuan Du closed his eyes, letting the overwhelming feedback force surge through his body.

He sensed that his foundation was undergoing a qualitative change.

That barrier, so thin it was almost nonexistent, was being relentlessly assaulted from all directions by countless tiny forces.

The cracks are becoming more numerous and denser.

It was like an ice wall covered with a fine, spiderweb-like crack.

Then... click.

A very faint cracking sound rang out from the depths of his Purple Mansion.

The sound was very soft, so soft that it was almost imperceptible.

But in his perception, the sound was like the first great roar at the beginning of creation.

The barrier that held them firmly in place has shattered completely.

The threshold of the top-tier Chaos God level collapsed before him.

Xuandu felt an immense power suddenly explode from the depths of his being.

That power was different from the improvement of cultivation level, different from the understanding of laws, but a deeper qualitative change.

It was a transformation that occurred at its very core.

His foundation has shifted from a top-tier Chaos Demon God to an even higher level.

Low-grade Hongmeng footwork!

That's a level that only the most elite beings in the chaos before Pangu created the world could reach.

At this moment, he stepped into that realm.

Xuan Du suddenly opened his eyes.

Deep within those eyes, a chaotic energy surged like a tide, as if containing the primordial power of the beginning of heaven and earth.

His aura surged dramatically.

The surge was violent and turbulent, like a volcano that had been dormant for millions of years suddenly erupting.

The bottleneck of the half-step Hunyuan Tai Chi peak was instantly shattered by the feedback from the breakthrough.

The Primordial Supreme Ultimate Golden Immortal!

The gate to the highest realm opened completely before him.

The aura of Xuandu has risen to a new level, vast as an abyss, unfathomable.

The entire void of the North trembled.

The surging chaotic energy solidified within a hundred miles of him.

Those floating chaotic landmasses trembled slightly in the face of that oppressive force.

Those chaotic beings who were in seclusion lay prostrate on the ground, unable to even lift their heads.

Xuan Du slowly stood up.

He stood on the stone platform, his blue robes fluttering slightly, his black hair flowing over his shoulders.

Deep within those calm eyes, golden light now swirled, like a great sun sinking into an abyss.

He looked down at his hands.

A brand new power was flowing in his palm.

That power was more than a hundred times stronger than before, carrying a weight and profundity that even a Primordial Grandmaster could not match.

He clenched his fist lightly, and the void within a hundred miles around him suddenly collapsed, as if even the laws of nature were twisting and deforming in his palm.

Hunyuan Taiji Luo Jinxian.

He crossed it.

Xuan Du took a deep breath, suppressing the surging emotions in his heart.

He gazed at the vast emptiness in the distance, a slow smile creeping onto his lips.

The smile was faint, yet it carried a sense of relief and ease.

"This kid, Shen Ni, has given his master a wonderful surprise."

He murmured to himself, his voice drifting away on the wind.

"If it weren't for his extensive recruitment of disciples on the Central Floating Land, and if those tens of thousands of disciples hadn't simultaneously joined the Jie Sect, I'm afraid I would have had to wait for who knows how many more eons."

"Those faint feedback forces, when gathered together, actually bridged that narrow gap."

He turned his gaze southward.

Above that sky, the chaotic energy continued to surge endlessly.

"Qingmu, Cangxuan, Xueyuan, plus the thousands of disciples recruited by Shenni."

"The breakthrough in foundational skills has been completed, and the realm of Hunyuan Taiji has been stabilized."

"Next, we should go find Taixu."

"If he can join the Jie Sect, my foundation can be further strengthened."

"At that time, we will have the strength to fight even those more ancient beings."

Just as he was pondering, countless strange phenomena began to surge in the sky above.

Those strange phenomena did not arise spontaneously, but were drawn by the will of some being.

That will was profound and ancient, as if it had been dormant for countless eons, and was now awakened by his Hunyuan Taiji aura.

"interesting."

Xuan Du spoke in a low voice, which was not loud, but carried a weight that was not yet fully expressed.

As soon as he finished speaking, a silvery-white light suddenly shone in the northern sky.

The light was initially very faint, like a thin thread suspended in the chaos.

In the blink of an eye, the wisp of silk rapidly expanded, transforming into a massive rift that stretched across the sky.

From within the crevice, countless stars cascaded down like a waterfall.

Those stars were not ordinary celestial bodies; each one retained the remnants of the laws of the Chaos God.

Countless stars converged into a galaxy, cascading majestically down upon the northern floating continent.

Xuan Du's gaze narrowed slightly.

"A galaxy descended from the sky?"

He had never seen this phenomenon before.

However, the residual laws contained within that galaxy were extremely pure, without a trace of killing intent, and instead resembled some kind of ancient blessing.

"Is this... a gift from the Path of Chaos?"

A thought flashed through his mind, and he had already guessed a few things.

The Primordial Taiji Realm is a realm that Chaos Gods are born with. In the depths of Chaos, this world itself will bestow extraordinary phenomena upon those who attain enlightenment to show its recognition.

Now that he has attained enlightenment in the Primordial Taiji, Chaos itself has shown him goodwill at this moment.

The falling starlight suddenly solidified the moment it touched the floating land of the Northern Territory, transforming into countless silvery-white points of light suspended in the void, like thousands of stars surrounding Xuandu.

Those points of light contained pure primordial chaos power, posing no threat whatsoever. Instead, they slowly seeped into his body, consolidating his newly broken-through realm.

Xuan Du raised his hand, and his palm touched a point of light.

The moment the light entered his body, he sensed the fragments of laws contained within it.

That was the remaining Daoist essence of a fallen Chaos Demon God. Although it was broken, it still carried a method that even he found unfamiliar.

"It seems that the opportunities in the chaos are far greater than those in the primordial world."

He withdrew his hand, gazed at the starry sky, and the smile on his lips deepened.

But this is just the beginning.

The Milky Way had just condensed and taken shape when a very faint hum came from the south.
