Primordial Era: I, Hongyun, take charge of the literary path

"Phew, it's time for me to transform into human form too."

Huoyun looked up at the sky, and a rumbling sound appeared, as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged forth instantly.

At the summit of the heavens, the winds and clouds swirled, and spiritual energy gathered into a storm, involuntarily converging upon them.

A surge of spiritual energy, a myriad of rosy clouds, auspicious clouds, and golden flowers blooming everywhere—it was as if heaven and earth were celebrating for him.

Boundless spiritual energy poured into Huo Yun's body, and rays of divine light descended from the sky. Huo Yun felt as if he were bathed in a spring breeze, and waves of comfort emanated from his body.

The next moment, celestial music began to play.

This sound is mysterious and profound, a melodious and ethereal sound, carrying a noble and majestic quality, and is truly beautiful.

The spiritual energy converged even more frantically.

At this moment, a ball of nine-colored light descended, transforming Huoyun's body; this phenomenon lasted for over a thousand years.

As the light faded, the fiery cloud condensed into an innate Dao body, exuding an overbearing aura.

An overwhelming pressure rose from Huo Yun's body; his cultivation had reached the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

"In this primordial world, I am the Fiery Cloud!"

Xueyun looked at the phoenix tree. "Huoyun, put the phoenix tree away so that no one can see it."

"Haha, that's exactly what I was thinking!"

Huo Yun replied loudly, and with a wave of his hand, red magic power poured down onto the phoenix tree like a torrent.

The phoenix tree could not resist the power of the fiery clouds; its branches and leaves swayed, actively cooperating with the fiery clouds to collect the fire.

Then, Huoyun slapped his forehead, and the three flowers gathered at the top of his head, the five energies converged, and the three flowers of essence, energy, and spirit slowly bloomed.

Like Water Cloud, Fire Cloud also has an eighth-grade flower, and its three-flower grade is one grade higher than Blood Cloud.

Huo Yun made a hand seal, his expression solemn, and a golden beam of light shot out from the golden flower above his head.

Golden light fell on the phoenix tree, drawing it towards the fiery cloud. It grew smaller and smaller until it finally landed in the fiery cloud's essence flower, making the essence flower even more stable.

Huo Yun breathed a sigh of relief after successfully acquiring the phoenix tree; it seemed the phoenix tree was quite happy to go with him.

"Fire Cloud, you've just taken human form and don't have a single spiritual treasure to protect you. I'll give you this one!"

After Huoyun took human form, he had no magical treasures to his name, so Xueyun gave Huoyun the Huoyun Banner.

A banner with fiery clouds is like adding fuel to the fire.

Huo Yun was not one to stand on ceremony and directly accepted the Huo Yun Banner. Because Xue Yun had withdrawn the primordial spirit imprint of the Huo Yun Banner in advance, Huo Yun refined it with ease.

Next, Hongyun, Xueyun, and Huoyun exchanged the spiritual treasures they owned. Hongyun gave the Judge's Pen to Xueyun, and Xueyun gave Hongyun the three innate spiritual treasures: the Yimu Pot, the Life Pearl, and the Jade Dew Bottle.

Hongyun gave Huoyun the Phoenix Thorn Feather (obtained from Bifang) and the Burning Heart Pine.

Xueyun gave Hongyun the top-grade acquired spiritual root Golden Coral, and Hongyun reciprocated by giving Xueyun ten Nine-Turn Golden Pills and Huoyun three Nine-Turn Golden Pills.

Huo Yun mainly cultivates alchemy, and giving him two or three Nine-Turn Golden Pills was meant to encourage Huo Yun to continue innovating.

Besides exchanging spiritual treasures, the three of them also divided up some rare spiritual roots and herbs.

Huo Yun definitely benefited the most; after the three of them finished distributing the profits, Huo Yun became rich overnight.

"Everyone, let's go hiking!"

After distributing the treasures, Hongyun and Huoyun climbed Mount Buzhou to begin their long ordeal.

How high is the sky? How thick is the earth?

Hongyun had never known before, but standing at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, he knew. This great mountain gave him the clearest answer. The majestic and towering pillar of heaven left him in awe and wonder.

At that moment, Hongyun and the other two seemed to see a towering giant who supported the heavens and the earth.

The indescribable overwhelming momentum brought a strong sense of shock to Hongyun and the other two.

Looking at the towering Buzhou Mountain, Hongyun and the others felt as insignificant as ants. Heaven knows how powerful the Great God Pangu was.

Mount Buzhou is vast, with countless branches and valleys, but there is only one Mount Buzhou.

Upon entering the area of ​​Buzhou Mountain, an inexplicable pressure enveloped the space, as if imprisoning everything and preventing cultivators from using any supernatural powers.

Elsewhere, the Pangu bloodline possessed by Hongyun and the others weakened Pangu's oppressive aura to the extreme.

But on Mount Buzhou, that oppressive aura returned, and it was even more terrifying. Despite being a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he couldn't even fly normally.

Not to mention spatial teleportation; the space here is stable enough that attacks seem to be weakened.

Previously, Hongyun and his group could shatter a mountain range with a single strike, but now at Buzhou Mountain, they can only destroy a small mound. This suppression is enormous.

As Hongyun and his companions walked to the foot of Buzhou Mountain, they felt that Buzhou Mountain was even more majestic and towering.

"Mount Buzhou truly lives up to its reputation as the number one divine mountain in the primordial world; its height is immeasurable, its size boundless, its name is well-deserved!"

Huo Yun was deeply shocked. Only after seeing Buzhou Mountain with his own eyes did he realize how insignificant he was.

Xueyun nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, I have cultivated here for hundreds of thousands of years, and this experience is the most profound for me."

Mount Buzhou was formed from the spine of Pangu.

If Mount Buzhou alone possesses such power, how powerful must the great god Pangu be?

This was the second time Hongyun had expressed such sentiments. With things on their minds, they continued climbing Buzhou Mountain.

The majestic Buzhou Mountain, the towering Tiandi Pass.

Inheriting the will of the great god Pangu, this pillar of heaven supports the entire primordial universe.

Mount Buzhou, towering into the sky, stands upright and reaches the heavens, like an eternal and immortal deity overlooking the entire universe, the primordial world, and all living beings.

The three of them climbed upwards step by step with great difficulty, enduring the pressure of Mount Buzhou. Every step required tremendous effort, and their minds and wills were also tested.

While climbing Buzhou Mountain, Hongyun recalled an ancient legend: it is said that Buzhou Mountain was broken by Gonggong, the ancestor of water, and then the heavens and earth collapsed.

The primordial world almost collapsed because of this.

But now that I think about it, how could that be?

Gonggong actually smashed Buzhou Mountain with his head.

That's simply a fantasy!

Hongyun didn't believe that Gonggong had the power to break Buzhou Mountain. The Ancestral Witch was at most a perfected Hunyuan Golden Immortal, how could he possibly break Buzhou Mountain?

However, the legend of Gonggong hitting Zhou Mountain and Nuwa patching up the sky is just like that, perhaps there is some secret in it.

While pondering silently, Hongyun observed the surroundings of the mountain and discovered that it was different from the legends; Buzhou Mountain was not covered with immortal herbs and spiritual roots.

There are no powerful restrictive barriers here.

Apart from the terrifying pressure created by Pangu's will, everywhere was bare, hard rock.

In legends, this place was once abundant with divine herbs and spiritual roots, and rare treasures were everywhere. But now, they are gone, perhaps due to the influence of the might of the great god Pangu.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Hongyun's mind, and he realized a possibility: could it be that Gonggong broke Buzhou Mountain because the pressure there had disappeared?

Mount Buzhou with the power of Pangu and Mount Buzhou without the power of Pangu are two different concepts.

It's understandable that the latter could be collapsed by a collision.

Having figured out the legend of Gonggong hitting Buzhou Mountain, Hongyun focused his mind on climbing Buzhou Mountain.

Hongyun, Xueyun, and Huoyun climbed Buzhou Mountain step by step, but as time passed, the three gradually separated, with Hongyun in front and Huoyun at the back.
