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

Xuan Du opened his palm, and in the center of his palm floated a dark palace the size of a palm.

Although the palace was small, one could still see the flowing demonic patterns and the chilling Daoist aura unique to the Northern Underworld.

It was the Demon Master's Palace.

"Since you have decided to go to Jin'ao Island, you may take this."

Xuan Du looked at the Golden-Winged Roc standing respectfully to the side and gently pushed out the miniature Demon Master Palace.

The Golden-Winged Roc instinctively reached out and took it.

It feels cool to the touch, and its heavy texture penetrates to the very soul.

He looked down, and his pupils suddenly contracted!

"This...this is Kunpeng's Demon Master Palace?"

The Golden-Winged Roc let out a low cry, its face filled with disbelief.

Although he had never personally witnessed Kunpeng activating this palace to defend against enemies, he was certain that the unique aura of the Northern Darkness was genuine!

The Demon Master Palace is a treasured cave dwelling crafted by Kunpeng with endless effort, and it is also a symbol of his illustrious status and control over the North Sea.

This item is always carried by Kunpeng and is never separated from him.

How could Xuandu so casually hand him over at this moment?

The Golden-Winged Roc was deeply shaken, and an even more terrifying thought surfaced in his mind:

"Could it be... that Kunpeng also... joined the Jie Sect?!"

Xuan Du remained calm and nodded slightly.

"good."

"Junior Brother Kunpeng has just set off to visit Master on Jin'ao Island."

"If you hurry there now, you might still be able to travel with him for a while."

Upon hearing this, the Golden-Winged Roc was completely stunned.

Demon Master Kunpeng...

That ancient powerhouse who reigned supreme in the North Sea, and whom even the two Demon Emperors of the Demon Court had to show respect to...

He actually gave up his position as a demon master in the Demon Court and was willing to join the Jie Sect?

This is simply...

The Golden-Winged Roc took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his turbulent emotions.

His gaze toward Xuandu was no longer one of simple awe, but rather one of indescribable shock and conviction.

It could make even the arrogant Kong Xuan and the profound Kunpeng willingly become his disciples...

What kind of earth-shattering charm does this Senior Brother Xuandu, and the Jie Sect behind him possess?

"Junior brother understands."

Without further hesitation, the Golden-Winged Roc solemnly took the miniature Demon Master's Palace into its bosom.

He bowed deeply to Xuandu:

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother. I will now proceed to Jin'ao Island to pay my respects to the Sage and reunite with you!"

Xuan Du smiled:

"good."

"Be careful on your journey. If anything goes wrong, send a message immediately."

The Golden-Winged Roc nodded and said no more.

His Yin and Yang energies erupted suddenly, and his crimson-gold battle robe fluttered wildly!

"Buzz!"

His figure blurred, transforming into a streak of intertwined black and white light, soaring into the sky!

The streak of light was incredibly fast, like lightning tearing through the void, instantly piercing through layers of chaotic air currents and disappearing into the horizon of the North Sea.

The direction is the East China Sea, towards Jin'ao Island!

Xuandu watched the Golden-Winged Roc depart before withdrawing his gaze.

The matter in Beihai has come to a temporary close.

Burning Lamp was executed, Black Tortoise joined the sect, Kunpeng surrendered, and Great Roc submitted...

The trip was much more fruitful than expected.

But Xuan Du was not at ease.

He stood on the shore of the frigid North Sea, his gaze piercing through the vast ice plains, looking eastward.

That place is the coast of the East China Sea, the land where hundreds of millions of people have lived and thrived, and the foundation of his martial arts heritage.

"The feedback from cultivation... though continuous, has its limits."

Xuan Du murmured to himself, his eyes swirling with a chaotic light as his thoughts raced.

The peak of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm is the highest state of transcending the Heavenly Dao and forming its own laws.

Above that lies the legendary Primordial Golden Immortal!

However, breaking through to the Hunyuan Daluo realm is not simply a matter of accumulating magical power and strengthening one's primordial spirit.

There are only three known paths to enlightenment in the primordial world:

He proved the Way with force, using supreme power to forcefully break the shackles of the Heavenly Way and transcend to the highest level.

This method is the most difficult; throughout history, no one has succeeded in it.

He severed the three corpses to attain enlightenment, eliminating the three corpses of good, evil, and self. Ultimately, the three corpses merged into one, and he relied on the Primordial Purple Qi to entrust himself to the Heavenly Dao, thus achieving sainthood.

This was passed down by the Daoist patriarch Hongjun, and the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Jieyin, and Zhunti all followed this path.

The third is the proof of the Way through laws.

Comprehend the laws!

Why is the Chaos Demon God so powerful?

Because they are born with a complete law of chaos, they are the embodiment of the law!

Although Xuandu possesses the background of a mid-level Chaos Demon God and has unlimited potential, his understanding of the laws still needs to be accumulated, refined, and sublimated step by step.

"My cultivation has now reached the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm. My accumulated magical power has received feedback from the martial arts of hundreds of millions of humans, flowing inexhaustibly and naturally."

"But the understanding of the laws... cannot be achieved overnight."

Xuan Du frowned slightly.

He possesses a system that can gather the cultivation, background, techniques, supernatural powers, and even fortune of the myriad immortals of the Jie Sect and the human race.

As for the sum of laws, the sum system will likely also exist, but it hasn't been unlocked yet.

"Although I have a system, I can gather the cultivation, origins, techniques, supernatural powers, and even fortune of all the immortals of the Jie Sect."

"Perhaps in the future, we can also unlock the sum of laws."

"But... the laws are as vast as the sea, and every living being's understanding of them is different. Even when they are fed back to me, they are complex and chaotic, and difficult to unify."

Xuan Du frowned slightly.

Cultivation level, background, techniques, and supernatural abilities can all be accumulated, and quantitative changes can lead to qualitative changes.

But the rules are different.

Although it is said that there are three thousand laws, the actual number of laws is far more than three thousand.

Even when feedback is given to oneself, the effect is minimal.

It is far from reaching the level of breaking through to the Hunyuan Daluo realm.

"unless......"

A sharp glint suddenly flashed in Xuan Du's eyes!

An unprecedented thought popped into my mind!

"Unless... I create a law myself!"

"A law that belongs only to me, and also to billions of people."

"The Laws of Martial Arts!"

The moment this thought came to mind, even he was shaken to his core!

The Law of Creation?

What an arrogant and outrageous idea!

Since the beginning of time, all laws have been derived from the Great Dao and have existed since time immemorial.

Even the Heavenly Sage only wields partial authority by borrowing the power of the Heavenly Dao, rather than creating it.

But Xuan Du... actually wants to create his own laws?

However, once the thought arose, it could no longer be suppressed!

"Martial arts...entering the Dao through martial arts, tempering oneself, exploring the great secrets of the human body, and ultimately achieving physical sainthood and breaking through all laws with power."

"Although this path did not exist in the primordial world, it shares similarities with proving the Dao through force!"

"Billions upon billions of humans cultivate martial arts, their blood and qi resonate, their wills converge, and they have already formed an unprecedented force!"

"This momentum is the nascent form of the laws of martial arts!"

The more Xuandu thought about it, the clearer it became, and the chaotic light in his eyes almost burst forth!

Yes!

The laws do not arise from nothing, but are the product of the interweaving of the Great Dao, the will of all living beings, and the rules of heaven and earth.

Although martial arts were established not long ago, the practice of hundreds of millions of humans has already condensed a faint trace of laws in the dark.

However, the traces are too faint and too scattered; they haven't taken shape yet.

If one could use supreme power to condense, refine, and sublimate it...

That is the true law of martial arts!

If he succeeds, Xuandu will become the ancestor of this path!

At that time, with the feedback from the total system... it will be enough to support him in breaking through the shackles of the Primordial Golden Immortal and stepping into the supreme Primordial Daluo realm!

"Proving the Way through martial arts...creating laws through martial arts..."

Xuandu slowly clenched his fist, a clear, ethereal light flowing from his fingertips, and the primordial Daoist essence naturally coalesced.

An unprecedented surge of pride and determination rose within him!

No one has ever walked this road.

It might even anger the will of Heaven and bring about unknown calamities.

But...so what?

From the moment Xuandu decided not to join the Human Sect and stepped out of Shouyang Mountain, he embarked on a path against the heavens!

He gathers billions of humans, spreads martial arts, slays Burning Lamp, captures the Xuan Turtle, and takes in the Kunpeng...

Which step wasn't groundbreaking? Which step wasn't a challenge against the heavens?

If that's the case, why fear creating another unprecedented law?

Xuan Du no longer hesitated. With a flicker, he transformed into a stream of chaotic light and soared into the sky!

"Whoosh!"

The streak of light tore through the cold winds of the North Sea, pierced through layers of void, and sped eastward!

Our destination is the shores of the East China Sea, the ancestral homeland of humankind!
