Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

The primordial world shrank, from a single, unified world into four great realms. But this did not diminish its essence; instead, it made its essence even more profound.

This shows that everyone's previous ideas have successfully become reality, and the Primordial World has truly shed its burdens and can now move forward unburdened. What remains is the essence, and what has been discarded is the burden.

"Eastern Sheng Shenzhou, Southern Zhanbuzhou, Western Niuhezhou, and Northern Juluzhou. These four great realms are probably the four continents of the Journey to the West era."

"However, according to the original history, even if the four continents had appeared, their scale could not have been as large as it is now."

Noticing the changes in the primordial world, Ao Bing pondered silently. After comparing it with his memories from later generations, he naturally discovered the origin of these four realms, which were none other than the four continents of later generations.

This undoubtedly proves that even with his intrusion as an outsider, the course of the primordial world has not deviated from its inherent history.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Ao Bing's arrival was entirely useless. As the saying goes, the general trend cannot be changed, but minor trends can be altered.

The emergence of the Four Continents was an inevitable trend, so no matter how Ao Bing tried to change things, they still appeared.

However, the Four Continents were small in scale, which could be changed. Therefore, the current Four Continents are many times larger than the Four Continents in Ao Bing's memory.

In Ao Bing's memory, the Four Continents were just four continents with extremely limited areas. But now, the Four Continents are four vast worlds, with boundless and expansive areas.

Given Sun Wukong's speed, he could travel 108,000 li in a single somersault. Even if he were to exhaust himself, he might not be able to make a round trip between the four continents.

"The general trend cannot be changed, but the minor trends can be changed. This means that the West will continue to prosper in the future. This is ordained by Heaven and cannot be changed."

"However, Heaven only desires the prosperity of the West. As for who is in charge of this prosperity, Heaven does not care."

Ao Bing vaguely grasped the deeper meaning of the overall trend. What is the overall trend? The Great Calamity is the Great Trend, so the Great Calamity can only be postponed, not eliminated.

However, how things develop after the great calamity arrives is a minor matter, and can be changed at will according to the wishes of the powerful.

The Investiture of the Gods is the best example. If the three religions had discussed and agreed on the matter in Zixiao Palace, the entire calamity would have been under the control of the Three Pure Ones, instead of being completely out of control and causing such a huge disaster.

Ok……

The example of the Investiture of the Gods may not be clear enough, but the subsequent Journey to the West tribulation is enough to illustrate everything.

The Great Tribulation can indeed be manipulated by powerful beings. Wasn't the entire Journey to the West Great Tribulation under the control of the Taoist and Buddhist sects? Everything was arranged by them.

The general trend is irreversible, but the minor trend can be changed. After the Investiture of the Gods, not only Ao Bing had a clearer understanding of this saying, but the other powerful figures also felt the same way.

"My plans to aid the West and revitalize the West are almost ready to be implemented. Since the rise of the West is inevitable, I will be the one to lead its rise afterward, and it has nothing to do with the two Western Saints."

Thinking about the future, Ao Bing felt he should make plans in advance to compete with the two Western Saints for dominance in the West.

There was nothing he could do; he didn't want things to turn out this way. But the hatred between him and the two Western Saints ran too deep. Even if he didn't want to confront them, they wouldn't let him go.

The two Western Saints suffered greatly at his hands. First, their plans in Tanggu were ruined, and then they were dragged into the vortex of the calamity of immortals and gods, resulting in heavy losses for the Western Sect.

How could the two Western Saints possibly let go of such deep hatred? Even if they said they could, Ao Bing wouldn't believe them.

Since a blood feud has been formed and cannot be resolved, there is nothing more to say. Of course, it is best to strike first and do everything possible to weaken the two Western Saints so that they do not have the opportunity to deal with us.

Boom!

Just as Ao Bing was letting his thoughts wander, another change occurred in the primordial land.

Suddenly, the Chaos Primordial Qi Sea located in the center of the Four Realms became extremely violent, stirring up endless giant waves, hundreds of millions of feet high, surging towards the Four Realms wave after wave.

"Witch Clan, what are you doing?"

Upon witnessing this scene, the powerful figures of the prehistoric world were initially shocked, then their expressions changed, and they questioned the Ancestral Witch Xuanming. It was none other than the Ancestral Witch Xuanming who had caused this turn of events.

The Chaos Primordial Qi Sea is the power that the four realms combined to draw from chaos, and it can only benefit the primordial world without causing any harm.

Its sudden outburst of rage is definitely abnormal; it must be the result of someone secretly performing magic. And with just a sweep of their divine senses, without any further investigation, everyone could see that the one causing the trouble was none other than the Xuanming Ancestral Witch of the Witch Clan.

"It wasn't the Xuanming Ancestral Witch, but the Chaos Demon God and the Dao Ancestor. The Dao Ancestor really is something else, why did he have to fight the Chaos Demon God at such a crucial place of all places?"

They initially thought this was the work of the Xuanming Ancestral Witch, but upon closer inspection, they were surprised to discover that not only was it unrelated to the Xuanming Ancestral Witch, but it was entirely due to her desperate suppression.

Otherwise, if the chaotic primordial energy surges out, the newly born Four Realms would inevitably suffer severe damage if caught off guard.

It wasn't the work of the Xuanming Ancestral Witch, but rather the result of a battle between the Dao Ancestor and the Chaos Demon God. Under everyone's observation, they clearly saw that beneath the Xuanming Ancestral Witch was an ancient portal.

This is the Gate of Chaos, transformed by Gonggong, and it contains the marks of all the saints. With Gonggong and the marks of the saints, the Gate of Chaos was born as a supreme treasure, firmly suppressed in the ruins of Buzhou Mountain, blocking the chaotic gap below.

Indeed, in the center of the Four Realms, directly beneath the Chaos Sea, lies the site of the ancient Buzhou Mountain, which was also the place where Gonggong was sealed.

Because of the collapse of Mount Buzhou, without its suppression, a large hole appeared beneath Mount Buzhou, from which endless chaotic energy surged forth, threatening to engulf the entire prehistoric world.

The sages called this great hole the Abyss of Chaos, and they tried every means to block it, but to no avail.

Finally, having no other choice, they could only stuff Gonggong, the culprit who caused all this, into the Chaos Abyss, letting him use his flesh and blood to plug the gap.

Believe it or not, the powerful physical body of the Ancestral Witch, combined with the noble bloodline of Pangu, actually managed to block the Chaos Abyss.

Seeing this, the sages no longer hesitated and immediately used their divine powers. First, they placed their marks on Gonggong to enhance his strength. Then, they gathered various top-grade materials to help Gonggong block the Chaos Abyss.

Thus, the problem of the Chaos Abyss was solved. Gonggong, having been washed by the chaotic energy for many years, gradually underwent changes in his flesh and blood, mixing with various top-tier materials, and slowly evolving into the innate treasure, the Gate of Chaos.

Today, Gonggong is only a hair's breadth away from becoming a true innate treasure. Transforming from human to artifact is no good thing; if he truly becomes an innate treasure, Gonggong is doomed. Xuanming Ancestral Witch and Houtu Niangniang, realizing this, certainly don't want Gonggong to perish, but Gonggong's mistakes are too grave, and without a suitable reason, they cannot release him.

The situation reached a stalemate, but fortunately, not long after, the sudden cataclysmic event gave them hope of rescuing Gonggong.

The great sin of the battle among the saints, which shattered and nearly destroyed the primordial world, could be whitewashed. In comparison, although Gonggong's mistakes were great, they could also be whitewashed.

In short, if the sages can be exonerated and the sins of the demon race can be set aside, then the sins of the witch race can also be erased. Was Mount Buzhou really destroyed by Gonggong? I don't think so. It was definitely destroyed by the Chaos Demon God, who then framed Gonggong.

Mount Buzhou was the first divine mountain in the primordial world. At that time, Gonggong was only a great supernatural being, not even a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal. How could he have the ability to knock down Mount Buzhou?

The whole affair was strange, but at the time, everyone was too busy to investigate further in order to confirm the witch clan's guilt.

In order to exonerate Gonggong, Houtu decided to reinvestigate the matter and pin the blame for collapsing Buzhou Mountain on the Chaos Demon God.

Gonggong's strength was insufficient to topple Buzhou Mountain, but the Chaos Gods were different. If they wanted to, they certainly had a way to collapse Buzhou Mountain, and they also had the motive to do so.

In short, the idea that Buzhou Mountain was knocked down by the Chaos God sounds much more plausible than the theory that Gonggong knocked it down.

In this way, Houtu Niangniang achieved her goal of exonerating Gonggong and clearing him of his sins. As for whether the great supernatural beings of the prehistoric world would agree with this statement, they certainly would.

They dared not refute it. If they did, they would not only be enemies of the Earth Goddess, but also of all the saints and the witch and demon races.

If the saints can clear their names and the demons can escape punishment, then Gonggong can also be cleared. If Gonggong cannot be cleared, then Houtu Niangniang will definitely not let it go. At that time, she will use the saints and the demons as examples, relentlessly pursuing their mistakes, and no one will benefit from it.

That's the situation; everyone has committed the same crime. Since that's the case, either we all try to clear our names, or we all wallow in the mire together.

There is no situation where some people have been exonerated while others are still mired in trouble.

Your saints are powerful, but my witch clan is not weak either. The demon clan is not made of clay. We are all bound together, and no one can get rid of the others.

Houtu Niangniang's plan was well-thought-out and executed smoothly, but at the crucial moment, an unexpected incident occurred.

Houtu Niangniang (Goddess Houtu) planned to replace Gonggong with a Chaos Demon God. Then, she would rewrite history, transforming Gonggong into the Chaos Demon God who destroyed Buzhou Mountain.

It was when the great war ended that a chaotic demon god suddenly appeared while everyone was off guard and crashed into Mount Buzhou, which caused Mount Buzhou to collapse.

In order to make up for the losses, the saints joined forces to seal the Chaos Demon God and use it to block the Chaos Abyss in order to save the primordial world.

It was a perfect plan, but unfortunately, at the very moment of its success, an unimaginable force came from the other side of the Gate of Chaos, nearly shattering it.

Impacted by this, Houtu Niangniang's plan was ruined. Not only did she fail to exchange the Chaos Demon God for Gonggong, but in order to ensure that the Chaos Gate would not be shattered by that force, she had to sacrifice the Chaos Demon God she had obtained to reinforce the Chaos Gate.

However, the power was too strong. Even after sacrificing a Chaos Demon God to greatly enhance the power of the Chaos Gate, it still couldn't stop the surging force.

In just a short while, the surface of the Gate of Chaos was covered with spiderweb-like cracks, and it was on the verge of shattering.

Left with no other choice, the Ancestral Witch Xuanming personally intervened, doing everything in her power to reinforce the Gate of Chaos, but it was still not enough. Under the impact of this powerful force, not only the Gate of Chaos, but even the Ancestral Witch Xuanming, who had lent a helping hand, became precariously vulnerable.

Upon seeing this, Houtu Niangniang was both shocked and furious. She quickly mobilized some of the power of the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc to further reinforce the Gate of Chaos.

Thus, the Gate of Chaos was barely preserved. However, some of that powerful force managed to penetrate the barrier of the Gate of Chaos and reach the primordial world.

Although it was only a portion of its power, it was still extremely terrifying, nearly overturning the entire Chaos Sea. That's how the endless waves that crashed against the Four Realms took shape.

The first thing everyone saw was the Xuanming Ancestral Witch, followed by the Chaos Gate that she had suppressed beneath her.

Then, through the tiny crack in the door, everyone could vaguely see two incredibly terrifying beings locked in a fierce battle within the Great Chaos.

The force that struck the Gate of Chaos was the aftershock of their battle.

Of the two people engaged in the great battle, one was very familiar to everyone—undoubtedly the Dao Ancestor. While the others were unfamiliar with the powerful figure fighting him, they could easily guess that he was none other than the Chaos Demon God.

In the present primordial world, besides the Chaos Demon God, who else can rival the Dao Ancestor?

"Hurry and act! We must not let this Gate of Chaos shatter, otherwise, the chaotic energy will surge out and the newly born Four Realms will inevitably be submerged and gradually perish."

Everyone snapped out of their daze and realized the gravity of the situation, exclaiming in alarm. The Four Realms were newly formed and not yet stable; they could not withstand any turmoil.

If the Gate of Chaos were to shatter, causing the chaotic energy from the outside world to surge into the primordial world, the four realms would not only face destruction, but would also suffer severe damage.

The damage to the world will inevitably disrupt the nascent signs of revival in the primordial world. The yet-to-be-born Primordial Era will thus perish prematurely.

This is something no one can accept, so they must stop it no matter what.

"trouble!"

Upon seeing this, Ao Bing knew that the Chaos Demon God who was fighting the Dao Ancestor had done it on purpose, deliberately choosing this place as the battlefield so that the Dao Ancestor would hesitate to use his full strength.

Indeed, with the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, the Dao Ancestor could easily suppress even a Chaos Demon God at his peak.

However, despite fighting for a long time, Yang Mei Daxian has still not been able to defeat him. This is not because the Dao Ancestor is holding back, but because he is hesitant and dares not go all out, which has led to the stalemate and the inability to determine a winner for a long time.

"town!"

Fearing problems might arise in the primordial world, Ao Bing had no choice but to take action. He moved Dragon Continent, filling it into the center of the Four Realms, directly above the Chaos Abyss.

Since the Gate of Chaos cannot suppress the Abyss of Chaos, then let Dragon Continent do it. Dragon Continent is, after all, the former Mount Buzhou, making it the most suitable place to suppress the ruins of Mount Buzhou. (End of Chapter)
