Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

From the perspective of Heaven, this was all Ao Bing's own doing. The Primordial World was so vast; of all places, why did he choose to locate the Lesser Primordial World on the territory of the Witch Clan?

Isn't this just handing over benefits to the Wu tribe? They didn't force you; you offered it willingly, so who can you blame?

Therefore, in this matter, Heaven felt no remorse towards Ao Bing. It did not feel that it had done anything wrong, nor did it feel that it was taking advantage of Ao Bing.

Ultimately, it was Ao Bing's own miscalculation that led to this. Knowing how important the center of the prehistoric world was, why didn't he occupy the entire area beforehand, instead leaving a piece of land for the Wu tribe?
This was his own mistake, and he has no one to blame but himself.

"Is it fate that the Witch Clan is destined to prosper?"

Gazing into the chaotic abyss, Ao Bing fell into deep thought. The general trend of Heaven was something even he could not change.

Therefore, the rise of the Wu tribe was inevitable. But how and when this rise occurred is a matter worth discussing.

The general trend focuses on the result; as long as the result remains unchanged, the process is unimportant.

Therefore, Ao Bing felt that since the rise of the Witch Clan was related to him, he had to get involved no matter what. Even if he didn't gain much advantage, he at least had to make up for his losses.

The fact that he was taken advantage of cannot be changed, and no amount of regret or remorse will change that. Therefore, what Ao Bing should do now is to minimize his losses while trying every possible way to make up for them.

The Netherworld is quite good. Given the current situation, Ao Bing feels that he should make a deal with the Witch Clan, tacitly allowing them to take advantage of him in exchange for the support of the Goddess Houtu, who will help him dominate the Netherworld and ascend to the position of the Netherworld Supreme.

The Netherworld Supreme is one of the top positions in the primordial world, second only to the Heavenly Emperor, and on par with the Star Lord, the Lord of Time and Space, and the Human Emperor.

Although the Wu Clan gained a great advantage from Ao Bing, this loss was nothing compared to becoming the Supreme Being of the Netherworld.

If Ao Bing can become the Supreme Being of the Netherworld, then he will be revered by all three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man. The benefits he gains will far outweigh these losses.

"Once I've finished dealing with my current matters, I'll go and have a chat with the Goddess Houtu. I, Ao Bing, don't take advantage of people so easily."

Having made up his mind, Ao Bing put the matter aside for the time being and decided to discuss it later.

Don't think that the Witch Clan got away with it just because they took advantage of him. Don't forget that the Witch Clan's territory is located directly below the Lesser Primordial Wilderness. Moreover, the signs of the Witch Clan's revival also appeared because of the Lesser Primordial Wilderness.

In other words, Ao Bing, as the ruler of the Lesser Primordial World, has plenty of ways to control the Wu Clan.

The main reason he didn't take action was that he didn't want to offend Houtu Niangniang, and in addition, he had a good relationship with the Wu tribe before, so he didn't want to turn against them directly.

Let's talk first. What if Houtu Niangniang can offer him something he can't refuse? If we turn against each other before we even talk, it will be difficult to meet again later.

Let's talk first, and if we can't reach an agreement, then we can take action.

…………

With the advancement of the ancestral veins of the Primordial World, the Lesser Primordial World undoubtedly benefits the most, as it is filled with the essence of Pangu, making the cultivation environment even more favorable.

Besides the Lesser Primordial World, the Chaos Creation Sea surrounding it, as well as the Four Realms connected to the Primordial Ancestral Vein, also gained some benefits to varying degrees.

To put it simply, of the Pangu essence emanating from the ancestral vein, only 50% remained in the Lesser Primordial World, while the remaining 40% was distributed among the four great realms, one-tenth of which went to each realm.

Another ten percent scattered throughout the world, transforming into various treasures, waiting for those with the right destiny.

Well, the one percent given to the Witch Clan is extra and not included in this.

Although Xiao Honghuang obtained 50% of Pangu's essence, he could only keep half of it. The other half poured into the Chaos Creation Sea, merging with the seawater there and giving birth to all sorts of treasures.

In the starry sky, the Second Star Domain Origin Realm nurtures all kinds of treasures, and the earth is no less so, with the Chaos Creation Sea surrounding the Little Primordial Wilderness nurturing all kinds of treasures, waiting for those with the right destiny.

Only half of the Pangu essence from the Lesser Primordial World can remain; similarly, only half of the Pangu essence obtained by the Four Realms can remain.

The remaining half will flow into the endless world to support the development of those large, medium, and small worlds.

Since it is the ancestral vein of the primordial world, it must take care of all places in the primordial world. Therefore, Pangu's essence exists in various places.

However, even within the primordial world, there were distinctions of closeness and distance. Therefore, the amount of Pangu's essence obtained by each place varied.

It can be said that it exists in every place, but how much you can get depends on how close you are to the ancestral vein. The closer you are to the ancestral vein, the more Pangu essence you will get, and vice versa.

In short, no matter what, all places are blessed by their ancestral veins.

This means that, with the blessing of the ancestral lineage, the overall trend of the prehistoric world is getting better and stronger, and the cultivation environment is becoming more and more favorable.

Thus, the changes in the primordial world came to an end. Just when everyone thought everything was over, another change occurred.

At the summit of the starry sky, Ao Bing made his move once again, and dazzling beams of guiding divine light shone forth from the center of Ziwei Star and the Little Primordial World.

Like bridges, they span the vast void, establishing connections with all the great, medium, and small worlds in the endless universe.

The Divine Bridge of Reception guides all the immortals!
Upon seeing this, the powerful cultivators who had just entered the secluded training ground and were not yet fully in the zone abandoned their training and rushed out, glaring angrily at Ao Bing.

"Star Lord, don't you think this is going a bit too far?"

While everyone was wary of Ao Bing and dared not speak up, the two Western Saints, who were the strongest, were the first to question him.

"How can this be considered excessive?"

"If my guiding divine light were to forcibly guide all the Innate Dao Lords and above to the Third Star Region and the Lesser Primordial World, that would indeed be excessive."

"But the problem is, my guiding light is not like that. It only provides a channel, a bridge, to give those powerful people who are not in the Lesser Primordial World and the Starry Sky another option."

"This will allow them to travel through this guiding light to the Lesser Primordial World and the starry sky, and then to a better future."

"I can't say that it's too much to offer a better future to the powerful outside the Lesser Primordial World, can I?"

Faced with the questioning from the two Western Saints, Ao Bing chuckled and retorted.

At this moment, he made his move, setting up countless guiding divine lights, connecting all the great, medium, and small worlds in the endless world to the Lesser Primordial World.

Its purpose is to allow the powerful individuals and top geniuses in these places to travel to the Lesser Primordial Wilderness for cultivation after they have reached a certain level of cultivation.

In later times, Ao Bing's behavior would be called "cherry-picking," a common practice in prestigious schools where top students from various regions are gathered together for training. Even if the Lesser Primordial World is vast, it cannot compare to the entire Primordial World. Therefore, to maintain its leading position, a superior cultivation environment alone is not enough; a sufficient number of powerful individuals are also needed to safeguard it.

The strong here certainly do not refer to the strong of the old era, but to the strong of the new era.

How could recruited experts compare to those cultivated by oneself? Therefore, Ao Bing deliberately set up a guiding divine light to select the best talents in all worlds.

In terms of cultivation environment, apart from Ziwei Star and Zixiao Palace, there is no other place that can compare with the Little Primordial Wilderness, not to mention the great, medium and small thousand worlds located in the endless world.

Those who can cultivate to the Mythical Taiyi level are all peerless geniuses who amaze an era. Those who can cultivate to the Mythical Daluo level are undoubtedly the most powerful overlords, shaking the long river of time.

As for surpassing the Great Luo of Mythology and cultivating to become a Quasi-Saint of Mythology, it is no exaggeration to say that the difficulty of cultivating to this level in the Great, Medium, and Small Thousand Worlds is almost the same as the difficulty of cultivating to become a Great Supernatural Being in the old era.

From the beginning to the end of a great world, it is not possible for even one such genius to be born, which shows how rare they are.

Such a prodigy, if he were to go to the Lesser Primordial Wilderness to cultivate, would surely become a Primordial Golden Immortal in the future.

To put it simply, given the same talent, cultivators in the Lesser Primordial World have at least one or two higher potential realms than cultivators in the Greater Thousand Worlds.

In other words, cultivators who can only reach the Mythical Taiyi level in the Great Thousand Worlds, if given the opportunity to cultivate in the Lesser Primordial World, are guaranteed to reach the Mythical Daluo level, and may even have the potential to become Mythical Quasi-Saints.

This disparity means that the Lesser Primordial World is a coveted cultivation paradise for cultivators from the greater, medium, and lesser worlds. Given the opportunity, they would certainly go there at any cost.

Ao Bing seized upon this psychology and, with the help of the guiding divine light, established an ascension channel between the Lesser Primordial World and the Greater, Middle, and Lesser Thousand Worlds.

The requirements for ascension are also very simple. In the great, medium and small worlds, if a cultivator has reached the realm of the mythical Taiyi, he can ascend to the Lesser Primordial World through the guiding divine light.

In addition, if a prodigy meets the test set by Ao Bing, he can ascend to the Lesser Primordial World without needing to cultivate to the Mythical Taiyi level.

Without a doubt, these two types of people are the cream of the crop, the most outstanding beings in the world, both large, medium and small.

This is what it means to "cherry-pick the best." If they choose to ascend to the Lesser Primordial World, without their own Great, Medium, and Small Thousand Worlds, it will be virtually impossible for them to achieve better development.

With their addition, Little Primordial World will undoubtedly become stronger and stronger, maintaining its leading position.

As for cultivators in the great, medium, and small worlds, whether they are willing to go to the Lesser Primordial Wilderness to cultivate, they are definitely willing.

In later times, this would be equivalent to someone offering you a Beijing residency permit and a villa within the city's first ring road, asking if you'd like to move there.

Who could refuse that? Absolutely no one could.

Whether they are prodigies or mythical Taiyi cultivators, those who can reach this level are definitely intelligent people who know how to make choices to go further.

Instead of going to the sacred cultivation ground of the Lesser Primordial Wilderness, if they continue to stay in their hometown, then forget about reaching the supreme Hunyuan Realm, whether they can even cultivate into a mythical Great Luo is another matter entirely.

While one's hometown is important, one's own development is undoubtedly more important. Besides, even if one cannot forget their hometown and insists on contributing to it, one must first be strong enough.

If you're not strong enough, you can't even contribute to your hometown.

Take the fire out of the cauldron!

Ao Bing's move was tantamount to cutting off the lifeline of the great supernatural beings of the prehistoric world. He did indeed keep his previous promise and did not preach in the endless world.

But what he did was even more outrageous than preaching. He directly selected the best talents, using their opportunity to cultivate in the Lesser Primordial World as a price to wipe out all the geniuses of the endless worlds.

With his actions, although the powerful beings of the prehistoric world could still spread their teachings in the endless world, they could only spread their teachings and seek merit and fortune in education, and could not cultivate successors who were capable of standing on their own.

What is the purpose of spreading the teachings? Besides seeking merit and good fortune, it is also to cultivate a disciple who is exceptional enough to inherit the teachings and spread the philosophy.

However, after Ao Bing selected the best disciples, his merits and fortune remained the same, but it became very difficult to find outstanding disciples again.

A power without enough strong individuals to hold its ground will ultimately benefit outsiders. What use are abundant resources if they cannot be defended?

Ao Bing's selection of the most outstanding talents, bringing all the geniuses under his wing, will have little impact in the short term.

But once time goes on and these prodigies grow up, in the endless world, whatever Ao Bing says will be the truth, and who would dare to contradict him?

The powerful beings of the primordial world were all farsighted, and naturally they immediately perceived Ao Bing's intentions. Therefore, they were all very displeased with Ao Bing's actions and wanted to step in to stop him.

But it's easy to think about stopping Ao Bing, but difficult to say it out loud.

Because Ao Bing's reasoning was perfectly justified. As he had said before, sending cultivators from the Great, Medium, and Small Thousand Worlds to the Lesser Primordial Wilderness would give them better opportunities for development.

Even if the powerful beings of the primordial world were unwilling, they could not publicly stop the cultivators of the great, medium, and small worlds from striving for a better future.

If they were to actually do that, wouldn't the cultivators of the great, medium, and small worlds who learned of it hate them to death? How could they then spread the teachings?

"Star Lord, the Great, Medium, and Small Thousand Worlds are all weak, and it is not easy to nurture a genius. The birth of each genius consumes countless blessings. If you take people away directly, it may be detrimental to the development of these worlds."

"If creation only gives out and never takes in, even the most powerful world cannot last long."

The one with great supernatural powers thought for a moment and used the fact that it was not easy for the world to raise such a prodigy as a reason to persuade him.

That makes sense. Every genius or powerful figure born devours countless blessings from the world.

As long as they stay, it's like the meat rotting in the pot—it doesn't matter what happens to it. But once they leave, it's a real loss of the essence, and the impact on the world is huge.

One or two won't matter, but if there are too many, the world's ranking will drop at best, and the world will be destroyed at worst.

"It is not easy for the world to nurture geniuses. Do you think it is easy for the ancestral veins to release the essence of Pangu, for the Ziwei star to release the primordial energy, and for the stars in the heavens to endlessly cascade down their light?"

"You've taken so many benefits from me, you have to pay them back eventually. Otherwise, do you think you can just take advantage of me for nothing?"

Upon hearing this, Ao Bing frowned and replied with considerable displeasure. It was the Endless World that benefited from his acquisition first, which is why he was so eager to claim the spoils. This order needs to be clarified.

Otherwise, it would sound like he only benefits from the endless world without giving any compensation. (End of Chapter)
