Chapter 571: Pangu

The lack of the Heavenly Dao lies in the endless Great Dao. The lack of all living beings lies in the increase and decrease of Dao…

Li Changshou’s situation was a little strange.

He sat cross-legged on the side of the vortex. Wisps of spiritual will entered various parts of the vortex, and most of his attention was immersed.

However, he was only observing and did not completely enter the realm of Dao enlightenment. Everything around him could be projected in his heart.

Fairy Yun Xiao, who was focused on refining the array foundation…

Perfected Taiyi, who was slacking off to practice his oral skills…

The Great Daoist Master who was studying the specific arrangements of the array formation…

At that moment, Li Changshou felt like he was a mobile hard drive that was inserted into the “port” of the Heavenly Dao. He tried his best to search for the content that he was interested in amidst the vast amount of disorder and meaningless information.

At the same time, he wanted to investigate some small problems.

For example, the essence of the Heavenly Dao, the deep connection between the Great Dao, the Heavenly Dao, and the living beings, the evolution of the Great Dao at the beginning of the world, and so on.

There was nothing outstanding about it. It was the level of comprehension of ordinary mighty figures in the Primordial World.

Of course, his Dao realm and accumulation were far from being considered an eminence.

Since the ancient times, countless living beings had left too many traces over the years. There were also too many scattered fragments hidden in the Heavenly Dao.

Li Changshou kept observing and thinking. He did not notice the changes in time.

His insights accumulated continuously and were temporarily sealed by him to avoid being taken advantage of by the Heavenly Dao and affecting his mind.

Kongming’s Dao heart remained open at all times. It was not affected by external things or personal feelings.

He was like an interrogator who had lost all feelings. He maintained his sage state and observed the countless traces left behind by the Heavenly Dao’s annual wheel…

Without any warning, Li Changshou saw chaos.

In the gray fog, there seemed to be an extremely burly figure standing there. There were intersecting Great Daos under his feet, and there was endless Chaos around him.

That figure…

The fog dissipated. Li Changshou “saw” the burly man’s back. He was wrapped in a simple leather dress and had his hands behind his back as he stared at the Chaos Sea.

That skin seemed to be some kind of Chaos living being…

Pangu?

That thought surfaced in Li Changshou’s heart. His Dao heart subconsciously trembled.

There was actually a mark of the Pangu God in the gap that the Heavenly Dao lacked?

That did not make sense!

The Heavenly Dao was born after the creation of the world. It was born from the resonance of the three thousand Great Dao of Pangu’s will. It was originally to protect the Primordial World from the invasion of the Connate Godfiends.

Three thousand was an estimation.

Since the Heavenly Dao was born after the death of the Pangu God, why would there be a “scene” of the Pangu God standing in the Chaos Sea?

Is it a huge moral imprint?

Or does the Dao Ancestor have the great mystical ability to reverse time and observe the origin of the world?

Or…

“You’re here?”

A shout filled with joy suddenly sounded in Li Changshou’s Dao heart. It was pure joy, but it carried the sound of the Great Dao.

Pangu turned his head and revealed a mighty face. At first, he did not think that there was anything strange about it. It only looked like a Connate Dao Body, but when he thought about it carefully…

The so-called Connate Dao Body was an imitation of Pangu’s appearance.

This is the real deal!

Then, Pangu said,

“Brother.”

Ahem!

Li Changshou’s clear Dao heart was almost broken. Then, he realized that the “traces” he had captured were the memories of a certain living being.

Pangu was not talking to him. It was just that his spiritual will had entered the main perspective of the memory.

He suddenly recalled that Senior Lang’s yearbook also had the term ‘Brother Pangu’…

Li Changshou’s thoughts circulated quickly. He separated himself from the traces of the Heavenly Dao and imagined a black shadow in the place where Pangu was facing. He began to observe it from the perspective of a third person.

Indeed, everything became much easier to understand.

Under the feet of the Pangu God, the Great Dao seemed to be extending, becoming complete, and trying to be perfect.

That seemed to be the cultivation method of the Pangu God.

The content of the mark carried by the Heavenly Dao was a simple conversation between the Pangu God and an unknown living being before the creation of the world and the Chaos.

When the Pangu God communicated with the unknown living being, he transmitted his spiritual will. Li Changshou automatically condensed the words that he knew.

It was similar to the way the Pagoda Master chatted with Li Changshou.

Pangu asked, “I still don’t understand why I want to wear clothes.”

The unknown living being smiled and said, “If I don’t wear clothes, won’t I be unable to be differentiated from those ugly monsters? Brother, we have to firmly believe that we are beautiful before we can treat them as ugly. This is because the Chaos Sea cannot stabilize the situation. Therefore, we have to set a standard. The Chaos Sea is boundless. They are all living beings formed from the amalgamation of True Spirits. All of them looked fearless. We have to be responsible and set an example for them.”

Pangu looked enlightened. There was a thoughtful look in his eyes.

The fellow who had tricked the Pangu God…

It must be Senior Lang. This must be Senior Lang!

Senior Lang transmigrated to the time when the world was created? Then why did the Dao Ancestor say that Senior Lang was sucked over by the turbulence when the world was created?

Alright, that’s not important. The main point is…

That’s it?

Senior Lang only has this water bottle?

He had already appeared beside the Pangu God and arrived in the Chaos Sea before the creation of the world. In the end, he still had to lose to Dao Ancestor Hong Jun!

Is the Dao Ancestor too powerful, or is Senior Lang too unrestrained in the endless years?

Li Changshou could not help but complain in his heart. Then, he reminded himself.

Don’t get involved with Senior Lang. Otherwise, you will definitely be scammed!

There was still some information about the mark.

“Everything is uncertain. We have to set a standard.” Pangu nodded slowly. “What you said makes sense.”

Then, Pangu lowered his head and looked at the Great Dao under his feet. He closed his eyes and began to think. Soon, a layer of fog appeared around him.

When the unknown living being saw that, he seemed to silently raise his hand and slap himself. He muttered, “It’s over. I wonder how long it will take for me to wake up. Ah, this must be the big boss.”

As the unknown living beings muttered, the scene disappeared.

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

At that moment, he could confirm that the Heavenly Dao mark came from Senior Lang’s “memories”.

Senior Lang really did not boast about “Brother Pangu” in the yearbook. He was probably really someone of the same generation as the Pangu God.

The real show began.

Li Changshou calmed his Dao heart and carefully comprehended for a while.

The image of Pangu’s back was imprinted in his heart. The Eight-Nine Arcane Art seemed to have been ignited, and his bloodline began to spin rapidly.

In the Xuandu City, where Li Changshou was in seclusion, a bright red stream of light enveloped Li Changshou.

Opportunity?

Li Changshou raised his eyebrows and did not open his eyes. He was not in a hurry to continue searching for other Heavenly Dao imprints related to the Pangu God. Instead, he began to think carefully.

Why have I never heard of this matter before?

Does the Dao Ancestor intend to fulfill his wish?

These Heavenly Dao imprints were not trivial. They could be visualized at all times. They could increase the Qi Refinement cultivators’ comprehension of the Great Dao. They could also understand the Great Dao in the Primordial state condensed by the Pangu Divine Body before the creation of the world.

There are two concepts here:

The Great Dao, the truth of the world, could be understood as the rules that constructed the current Primordial World.

The Heavenly Dao had deduced 98% of the Great Dao and obtained the “authority” to control the world, protect the world, and construct the order of the world.

The two were similar but completely different.

In the gap in the Heavenly Dao, he actually found the Heavenly Dao mark that came from the memory fragment of “Forbidden Senior Lang”…

Li Changshou could not help but suspect that it was the Heavenly Dao or the Dao Ancestor, or even the remnant will of Pangu in the Heavenly Dao. For a certain purpose, it deliberately revealed the “information” to him.

However, Li Changshou had already decided…

He would seize this opportunity!

The benefits were indeed huge. It was directly related to Transcendence.

There were priorities. He had to grasp every opportunity related to Transcendence with all his might!

It was not wise to lose food because of choking.

As for what the mastermind behind this would ask him to do, he had to consider carefully.

He chose to deny it.

Half a day later, Li Changshou continued to investigate the gap in the world. He searched layer by layer for the mark of the Pangu God.

After an unknown period of time, he did not know how long he had searched.

Li Changshou’s Dao heart trembled slightly. His spiritual will entered a Chaos Sea again.

The second mark!

He maintained his clear Dao heart and quickly stripped himself away to avoid being affected by the Heavenly Dao. He continued to choose a third perspective to observe from.

This time, it was still the conversation between the Pangu God and the unknown living being.

The difference was…

A large piece of land appeared under the feet of the Pangu God. A blue sky appeared above his head, as if he was deducing the logic of turbidity.

The surrounding Chaos aura continuously corroded the small world, but it was continuously dispersed by the divine power of Pangu.

Due to his perspective, Li Changshou could not determine what the unknown living being that was suspected to be Senior Lang looked like. It was still just an imagined black fog…

The unknown living being asked, “Brother, are you really going to split open the sky? Should I think about it? It’s quite good to stay in the Chaos Sea. It’s endless. There are some interesting places that have no end.”

However, Pangu said, “The Chaos is disorderly and the True Spirit is muddled. Since we are born from nothing, the path that we have to take will naturally transform into one. We will perfect the three thousand Great Daos and will definitely exist in the void. We will divide it into the Order World and the Lawless World. The True Spirit River could not be connected in the Chaos Sea. Countless True Spirits were muddle-headed. If they did not split open the sky, these True Spirits would return to nothingness, and the True Spirit River itself would be destroyed again. If we return to nothingness again, the Chaos Sea will be dead silent again. What’s the point of our existence? I was born for the convergence of True Spirits. I entrusted the existence of the True Spirit River. I should do that.”

The unknown living being said,

“However, this… Ah, Brother, you are going to break the order in the Chaos Sea after splitting open the sky. In order to complete the Three Thousand Great Dao, you have to fight the Godfiends in the Chaos Sea.

In the Chaos Sea that we have already discovered, there are countless Godfiends who can fight you.”

“Just as you said, how can there be no bloodshed during change?”

The Pangu God smiled and opened his left hand. Flowing light crisscrossed in his palm. The world above his head and under his feet suddenly collapsed and turned into Great Dao that were like chains and had different colors.

The concept of color appeared in the Chaos Sea!

Three Great Dao were the most eye-catching. They flew to the Pangu God’s palm and intertwined with each other, forming a huge ax that was as tall as the Pangu God.

Heaven-Opening Axe!

The unknown living being’s spiritual will was trembling. Do I just do it?

“I’ll do as I say.” Pangu stood with his head held high. His long hair that was scattered on his shoulder was wrapped by Dao laws. Seven-colored light shone around him. He raised his head and roared.

The Chaos Sea suddenly boiled!

In the surrounding Chaos Sea, shadows of different shapes appeared. They were endless…

The scene stopped.

The second Heavenly Dao mark only contained that information.

Li Changshou did not have enough. However, he still suppressed his urge and closed his eyes to carefully comprehend it.

A thought flashed in his mind. He took out a blank scroll that he carried with him from his sleeve. His immortal power condensed into a divine brush and he casually drew.

The Pangu God, who was holding an ax and facing the endless Chaos Godfiends, was quickly copied by Li Changshou.

Li Changshou felt that it was not perfect. He casually burned the portrait and took out a blank portrait. He closed his eyes and focused.

This time, he did not lift his brush to write for a few days. When he raised his brush, his movements became very slow.

However, the lines that he drew seemed to have come alive. The Pangu God’s figure that he drew this time contained countless mysterious truths.

The painting was completed in three months. Li Changshou waved his hand and rolled up the scroll. It turned into a stream of light and flew towards the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du.

Then, Li Changshou did not say a word. He closed his eyes and comprehended the painting that was hanging high in his spiritual platform.

“Pangu Visualization Painting”!

The key to breaking through the limits of the Eight-Nine Arcane Art!

The Transcendence Path that he could not figure out had unexpectedly opened up a gap there. A beam of light was guiding him forward…

Who is it that is revealing these Heavenly Dao imprints to me?

Senior Lang was destroyed. Senior Lang’s memory fragments should belong to the Heavenly Dao.

The main body of the Heavenly Dao could be eliminated first. It was a ‘nomological polymer’ without emotions. It was the order itself. It could not provide him with a way to break the order.

Senior Lang could also be eliminated.

The most likely ones were the remnant will of the Pangu God and the Dao Ancestor.

However, the remnant will of the Pangu God was suppressed and sealed. It was most likely that the Dao Ancestor was giving him pointers.

The way to verify it was very simple.

If he saw the subsequent Heavenly Dao imprints again, and the image of the Dao Ancestor and the Pangu God appearing in the Heavenly Dao imprints…

The person who gave him such an opportunity must be the Dao Ancestor.

Li Changshou heard the exclamation in the distance and smiled faintly. He continued to split a portion of his attention around him and immersed himself in the Heavenly Dao’s “year wheel”.

He counted the past of the world and searched for the Heavenly Dao mark formed by Senior Lang’s memories.

This time, he spent a relatively long time. However, his efforts did not disappoint. Soon, he found the third and fourth Heavenly Dao mark.

Unfortunately, there was very little information left.

He could barely condense a few images. They were also scenes of the battle between the Pangu God and the living beings in the Chaos Sea. He split the living beings into Chaos auras and exploded countless True Spirits.

The powerful living beings in the Chaos Sea could be understood as living beings formed by countless True Spirits gathered on the Great Dao.

Therefore, every Chaos Godfiend’s death released their True Spirits.

The True Spirits gathered behind Pangu’s God and condensed into a river again. Pangu’s God was like riding the wind and breaking through the waves. Wherever he passed, he was invincible!

Interestingly, the original perspective of the images was on the shoulder of the Pangu God.

At that moment, Senior Lang seemed to be standing on the shoulders of the Pangu God and witnessing the entire Heavenly Tribulation.

After settling down for half a month, Li Changshou began to search for the fifth Heavenly Dao mark.

This time, Li Changshou finally confirmed his thoughts.

The Dao Ancestor had appeared!

That was when the Heavenly Tribulation was about to end. Pangu’s God had already reached his strongest form. In the battle, he suddenly discovered a Connate Dao Body that was similar to his.

The ax hesitated for a moment. The Pangu God had spared the Chaos Godfiend’s life. However, the Heaven-Splitting Divine Ax shot out a stream of light and knocked off a corner of the jade plate that the Chaos Godfiend was protecting.

The three spiritual wills intertwined and had a simple conversation.

The unknown living being suspected to be Senior Lang: “Someone familiar! Brother, this is someone familiar!”

The handsome young Daoist who was suspected to be Dao Ancestor Hong Jun said, “Why don’t you kill me?”

“You’re too weak.”

The Pangu God’s spiritual will explained calmly, “It’s not easy for a single True Spirit to survive in the Chaos Sea until now. Moreover, in the world that I want to open, every True Spirit can grow on their own. I have proof. You happen to be proof that a single True Spirit can exist on its own. You can enter the world that I will open later. I don’t have to destroy you. Hong Jun nodded slowly and turned to escape into the Chaos Sea. The Pangu God muttered to himself, “That jade disc is interesting.”

“It’s a Creation Jade Disc.” Senior Lang chuckled.

Creation. Pangu’s gaze pierced through the entire Chaos Sea. He stopped and rested for a while. A green lotus floated in front of him.

Senior Lang asked, “Are you going to open it?”

“Yes, I’ll try.”

The Pangu God slowly exhaled and held the huge ax in his hand. He leaned his back against the thirty-six-grade azure lotus and slashed forward!

The scene stopped. The creation of the world behind could not be recorded or comprehended.

Li Changshou’s spiritual will left the mark. Even though he maintained his clear Dao heart, his thoughts could not calm down for a long time.

The meeting between the Pangu God, Dao Ancestor Hong Jun, and Senior Lang…

Li Changshou did not delay this time. He continued to search and felt a sense of urgency. He thought of a possibility.

Li Changshou did not know how long he had been searching for the Heavenly Dao’s rings. He finally saw the last mark.

The mark carried the mark of the Heavenly Dao and had a familiar Dao rune.

Dao Ancestor Hong Jun’s Dao runes.

Li Changshou’s spiritual will condensed into a shadow and bowed to the sixth mark. Light appeared in front of him, and his spiritual will rushed to an almost endless world.

At that moment, a huge amount of information attacked Li Changshou’s Dao heart!

Fortunately, after the Grand Pure One fell asleep, Li Changshou had gone through decades of targeted tempering. At that moment, the amount of “information” his mind could withstand was far greater than before.

After enduring it at the beginning, the nearly endless comprehension began to surge in the depths of his Dao heart.

The huge world looked like an egg from afar. Countless complete Dao laws formed a barrier that isolated the Chaos aura in the Chaos Sea.

A colorful river of True Spirit flowed through the world. The flow of the True Spirit River produced traces of time.

After the Primordial World was created…

Li Changshou did not see the Dao Ancestor. At that moment, the Dao Ancestor should be cultivating in the Primordial World.

Some light spots floated in the world and condensed into a few living beings. At first, they looked strange and blurry. They did not have intelligence and followed the Dao.

That was the first batch of Connate lifeforms formed by the True Spirit in the Primordial World.

At that moment, he could already see the shadows of the dragon and phoenix.

Just as Li Changshou had seen in the previous imprints, the Ancestral Dragon and the Primordial Phoenix were once followers of the Pangu God. They were born in the Chaos Green Lotus and were personally created by the Pangu God.

The giant who was supporting the world smiled in relief.

He looked extremely tired. He slowly closed his eyes and left his spine to continue supporting the world. His body collapsed on the empty ground.

That mark still originated from Senior Lang’s memory fragment.

At that moment, Senior Lang was running on the ground. He seemed to be extremely weak. He rushed to the side of Pangu’s Divine Body and flew to the indescribably huge head, rushing to the heart of Pangu’s Divine Body.

At that moment, Senior Lang’s spiritual will was sobbing.

“Brother! Brother, what are you doing? You f*cking created the world, but you don’t even enjoy it?”

“Don’t mess with me, okay? Brother, don’t be like this! I’ve been accompanying you in the Chaos for so long. I’m almost bent by you! Now, you’re telling me that you want to self-destruct!”

“Who can kill you!?!”

“I don’t believe that anyone can stop you from living!”

“I’m formed from countless True Spirits. Pangu’s spiritual will was transmitted back. I don’t belong to this new world.”

“You are the Creator, you are the Creation God! If you don’t belong to this world, who does? Who is qualified to stand here!?!”

“Later.”

The Pangu God’s spiritual will transmitted laughter. The huge arm wanted to raise it to comfort the “little one” on its forehead, but it could not move after losing its spine.

Pangu replied calmly, “If I live, the living beings in this world will respect me, worship me, and treat me as the peak of living beings. They will work hard to move forward on the path that I have walked. I will instead become an obstacle and become a shackle that locks down the fate of the world. They could choose their own paths, sense their Dao, and condense their Dao fruits. How carefree. In fact, I only dissipated the consciousness called Pangu. I still exist. However, I will condense it into my True Spirit and disperse it so that they can live freely in the world. Your injuries are too serious. Go and recuperate. In the future, some of the living beings you see in this world will naturally be me.”

“That’s different. They’re all different… If I die, everything will be over. My consciousness is the original me…”

“Then it’s over. I have no regrets.”

Pangu slowly closed his eyes. His spiritual will smiled freely. “I did it.”

“Brother…”

“Leave quickly. Don’t be hurt by me again. There’s also some divine power. I’ll make some decorations for this world.”

“Ah.”

Senior Lang did not say anything else. With a strong sense of sorrow, he lowered his head and ran away.

Daoist Hong Jun, who was still a young Daoist, stood quietly in the distance and bowed deeply to Pangu’s body.

“The embodiment of Pangu on the verge of death. His Qi is like the wind and clouds. His voice is like thunder. His left eye is like the sun, his right eye is like the moon, his four limbs are like the four poles and five mountains. His blood is like the rivers, his tendons are like the geography, his muscles are like the soil, his beard is like the stars, his fur is like grass, his teeth are like metal, his essence is like jade, and his sweat is like the Yuze…”

Thunder and dark clouds appeared in the world. Drops of water fell from the sky and turned into rain.

With the reflection of a drop of rain, Li Changshou saw Senior Lang’s current form.

A groundhog?

Then, Li Changshou watched the final evolution of the Pangu Divine Body. He saw the countless points of light emitted by the Pangu Divine Body and the twelve figures that jumped out of the Pangu Divine Necklace.

He also saw three streams of light fly out of the Pangu God’s forehead and condense into three old Daoists…

The Heavenly Dao imprint was slowly retracted. Li Changshou sat there for a long time and could not speak. His mind was blank. His clear Dao heart was also tainted by the sorrow of the world. Two drops of tears streaked across his face.

God Pangu.

How carefree.
