The Primordial Path of Kong Xuanming

The Treasure Dividing Rock houses three thousand spiritual treasures, three great chaotic treasures, and more than ten innate treasures. Its main body is naturally enormous, measuring three thousand meters in both length and width, and weighing trillions of tons. Kong Xuan released chaotic primordial fire to burn the Treasure Dividing Rock. The Treasure Dividing Rock can devour any energy and assimilate countless rules, but after two hours of burning, there was no reaction. Kong Xuan thought it would take a long time to refine it. He then summoned his other seven avatars (the Heavenly Soul Daoist guarding Kunlun Mountain, and the Earthly Soul Daoist traveling the prehistoric world preaching and not yet returned) to take turns refining the Treasure Dividing Rock.

In the blink of an eye, more than a billion years passed. Because Hongjun only appeared during the Great Calamity, and the gods of Kunlun Mountain might not emerge even once every few billion years, the demon race and the witch clan, believing they were no longer a threat, began their conquest of the prehistoric world. The two powers focused their efforts on recruiting rogue cultivators from the prehistoric land. In the more than a billion years since Hongjun, the Dao Ancestor, merged with the Dao, over 80% of the thousands of Great Luo Golden Immortals and above who listened to the Dao at Zixiao Palace had been subdued by these two powers. The remaining cultivators were either near-peerless experts or had gone into hiding to live a secluded life.

The expansion of both forces was extremely rapid. The Demon Clan's Heavenly Court already had nearly two trillion cultivators, while the Witch Clan had gathered over a trillion fighting groups. Several battles were fought near Buzhou Mountain as they vied for supremacy in the prehistoric world. Although the Twelve Ancestral Witches of the Witch Clan were all quasi-saints, the Demon Clan also had many powerful figures. Furthermore, Donghuang Taiyi, wielding the Chaos Treasure, the Chaos Bell, could fight four opponents at once. The Heavenly Emperor Dijun, possessing the innate treasures Hetu and Luoshu, could hold off four to five Ancestral Witches with his Zhou Tian Star Array, which consisted of 365 Great Luo Golden Immortals. The Demon Master Kunpeng could hold off one, the Demon Queen Xihe one, and the Southern Emperor Fuxi one. The Demon Clan also had over a thousand Great Luo Golden Immortals.

Thus, the two sides fought several rounds, and those who died or were injured were all low-level combatants, which did not have much impact on the strength of either side! However, during the battle, Kong Xuan's clone, the Earth Soul Daoist, happened to be on the highest peak of Buzhou Mountain. The Earth Soul Daoist did not stop the battle between the two sides. When the two sides finished fighting and were preparing to withdraw,

With his immense divine sense combined with spatial abilities, the Earth Soul Daoist imprisoned hundreds of billions of cultivators from both sides. His gentle, soothing voice resonated in the ears of Donghuang Taiyi, Tiandi Dijun, Yaoshi Kunpeng, Yaohou Xihe, Nanhuang Fuxi, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches: "We will not concern ourselves with your struggle for supremacy in the primordial world, but you cannot use the Buzhou Mountains as the battlefield. This is where Pangu's Heavenly Pillar is located. If you carelessly destroy the pillar and incur divine punishment, both your races will face annihilation! Remember! Remember!" His voice then vanished.

The demon leaders and the twelve ancestral witches looked at each other, remaining silent for a long time. The boundless supernatural power of the one who had just spoken had frightened all the gods, but the most important thing was the last sentence: it would bring divine punishment and the calamity of extermination. The leaders of both sides hurriedly gathered their armies and returned to their camp to discuss countermeasures.

In the palace of the thirty-three heavens of the Heavenly Court, on the imperial throne, Donghuang Taiyi and Tiandi Dijun sat on either side, with the other leaders of the Heavenly Court below them.

The Heavenly Emperor Di Jun, with a solemn expression, said: "Do you all know which great being from the primordial world spoke up on the battlefield just now?"

Demon Master Kunpeng stepped forward and said, "There are few in the primordial world with such supernatural powers. Hongjun Daozu has already attained Dao and can be ruled out unless a great calamity occurs. The Three Pure Ones might have it, but they are likely in seclusion preparing for sainthood. Nuwa Daoist and the two from the West are only about as strong as us. The only possibility is Kong Xuan Daoist, who was also listening to the Dao at Zixiao Palace. His supernatural powers are unfathomable. During the war between East and West, he single-handedly trapped and killed four quasi-saints. Billions of years have passed since then; who knows how far his cultivation has progressed!"

Chapter 45: The Lich Leaders All Go into Seclusion; Kong Xuan Refines the Chaos Treasure

Di Jun nodded and said: What the Demon Master said is very likely, but what is the purpose of Kong Xuan Daoist's intervention in the Lich War? Is it really true, as he said, that he will not interfere in the conflict between the two races?

Demon Master Kunpeng interjected: "Since his debut, Daoist Kong Xuan has only intervened once, when breaking the Western Demonic Sect's Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation. This time, it was likely just a coincidence. He merely warned us not to damage the Heavenly Pillar of Buzhou Mountain, since the Pangu Heavenly Pillar is the manifestation of the creator god Pangu. The disciples of Kunlun Mountain are all devoted to cultivation; they would likely not intervene unless a great calamity were imminent."

Donghuang Taiyi also agreed, and the demon gods finally decided to follow Kong Xuan's advice: the battlefield between the two sides would be far away from Buzhou Mountain, and the entrance of the Heavenly Court in Buzhou Mountain would be moved away from the Heavenly Pillar of Buzhou Mountain.

Stay away from the Buzhou Mountains. Stay away from mortal danger! This saying spread far and wide, eventually being adapted into countless versions, until it became known throughout the entire prehistoric world, making the Buzhou Mountains almost a forbidden zone for all living beings!

After returning to the Pangu Palace, the Twelve Ancestral Witches discussed the events of that day and ultimately made a decision similar to that of the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court. Furthermore, after their discussion, the Twelve Ancestral Witches decided to follow the same plan as the Demon Clan leaders, immediately embarking on a seclusion lasting billions of years. Alas! There was nothing they could do; Kong Xuan had truly dealt them a devastating blow!

Thus, peace was restored to the primordial world. All cultivators of both races worked tirelessly to improve their cultivation levels and widely disseminated their cultivation techniques to their subordinates. When the leaders of the Lich King and Demon King achieved significant advancements in their cultivation, the number of high-level cultivators in both races increased countless times. Truly, every cloud has a silver lining!

Time has reached the 230 billionth year since Pangu created the world, and the fourth great eon is fast approaching. The life forms of the primordial universe have returned to the prosperous state they were during the time of the three great primordial races. Thanks to the preaching of Kong Xuan's avatar and the gathering of countless cultivators by the Wu and Yao races, who passed down countless cultivation techniques, a large number of cultivators have broken through to the Immortal Path and achieved immortality. The number of beings in the primordial universe has reached tens of trillions, of which more than twenty trillion have broken through to the Immortal Path. The Wu and Yao races have built tens of millions of large cities and countless markets trading cultivation supplies in their respective territories.

Great masters of supernatural powers rarely appear before ordinary cultivators anymore; the mainstream of the primordial world has become the domain of cultivators below the Great Luo Golden Immortal level. Those above the Great Luo Golden Immortal level are mostly in seclusion seeking breakthroughs.

What was Kong Xuan busy with? He was sleeping in the martial arts world! It turned out that after nearly three billion years of refining, Kong Xuan had finally forged the Treasure Dividing Rock into a supreme treasure of immense power. For countless eons, Kong Xuan's biological intelligence had designed the most advanced warships, using sages as hypothetical adversaries. This design had existed for countless years, but because no material could withstand the attacks of sages, it had never been manufactured. The appearance of the Treasure Dividing Rock fulfilled Kong Xuan's dream of creating it. (Kong Xuan's spatial teleportation ability has reached 10570.8 light-years per teleportation.)

Kong Xuan designed the warship's shape to resemble a sword, minimizing spatial resistance. The bio-intelligent brain transformed Kong Xuan's billions of years of understanding of chaos, space, energy, and rules into technological achievements. The core power of the sword ship can absorb various cosmic energies and convert them into the energy required by the sword ship. The hull of the sword ship can absorb various energies, including chaotic energy, as well as attacks from rules, and can also absorb various forms of spiritual energy detection.

The sword-ship can travel at speeds of up to 10,000 light-years per hour during spatial jumps. If Kong Xuan were to control it using his divine sense, the speed could reach 3000 light-years per second (over 283 trillion kilometers). Furthermore, the sword-ship's powerful detection technology can capture even the smallest images within a 100 million light-year radius. The sword-ship was forged by Kong Xuan using chaotic matter, possessing the power of a chaotic spiritual treasure. On the day it was completed, 30,000 bolts of chaotic destructive divine lightning descended from the sky, but were all absorbed by the sword-ship's hull. Having been tempered by countless bolts of chaotic destructive divine lightning, the sword-ship's power has greatly increased, its attack power alone reaching the level of a top-tier innate supreme treasure!
