Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Since Ao Bing established the Sixfold World Vortex and the Sixfold Star Ring, the entire prehistoric world has changed.

Although Ao Bing only exchanged a few words with the great supernatural beings of the prehistoric world in the starry sky, not much time had passed.

But that was for them. For the outermost world, the world had long since changed beyond recognition, and countless millennia had passed.

As a result, while Ao Bing and the others were talking, many more immortals appeared in the prehistoric world, and many of them even cultivated to the Golden Immortal realm.

This is not surprising, because according to the existing cultivation system in the prehistoric world, and the current cultivation environment, the difficulty of becoming a Golden Immortal is undoubtedly many times lower than in the original prehistoric world.

Even if there is a heavenly tribulation to stop it, it can only reduce the number of Golden Immortals born, but cannot slow down the speed at which they cultivate to become Golden Immortals.

Therefore, as long as resources are sufficient, it may not even take ten thousand years for an ordinary mortal to cultivate from nothing to the realm of a Golden Immortal.

And this is basically the limit. Because the real test of cultivation lies in the mythical Taiyi realm, which is beyond the Golden Immortal level.

Becoming a Golden Immortal is easy, but advancing further to the Mythical Taiyi realm is difficult. It's not something that can be achieved through hard work and accumulating resources; one must possess either talent or good fortune.

While it's possible to cultivate to the Mythical Taiyi level by accumulating resources, that only applies to an era without Heavenly Tribulations. In this era with Heavenly Tribulations, relying on accumulating resources to improve cultivation is not something to be encouraged.

Relying on accumulating resources to improve one's cultivation level can easily lead to an unstable foundation, making it impossible to overcome the Heavenly Tribulation during a breakthrough, ultimately resulting in death and the destruction of one's soul.

Therefore, although the difficulty of cultivation has decreased, the difficulty of becoming a strong person has increased. Many shortcuts that were previously used are now restricted and cannot be used.

Simply piling up resources is no longer enough to become a powerful being. To cultivate to the Mythical Taiyi level, one must either have exceptionally strong talent, exceptionally good luck, or both.

In short, becoming a Golden Immortal in a short time is not difficult, but becoming a Mythical Taiyi in a short time is very difficult. Only those with great wisdom or great fortune can achieve this.

In Ao Bing's view, the first mythical Taiyi to ascend from the lower realm to the Lesser Primordial World was someone who possessed both good fortune and talent.

No matter how talented one is, cultivation still takes time. The time difference between the six realms is three hundred and sixty times.

This person was born in a small world, became a celestial immortal after a hundred years, and ascended to a minor thousand world. After a thousand years, he became a profound immortal and ascended to a middle thousand world. After ten thousand years, he became a golden immortal and ascended to a great thousand world.

In other words, it took this person 11,100 years to cultivate to become a Golden Immortal. Converted to the timeframe of the Lesser Primordial Era, that's probably less than a day.

One day in the Lesser Primordial World is equivalent to one year in the Four Great Realms, 129,600 years in the Great Thousand World, and over 46 million years in the Middle Thousand World.

A day is only 86.4 million milliseconds. The time it took him to cultivate into a Golden Immortal was ten thousand years in the Middle Thousand World, which is one forty-six millionth of a day in the Lesser Primordial World, less than two milliseconds.

That's too fast. Even a yawn takes more than two seconds, let alone two milliseconds.

Becoming a Golden Immortal in ten thousand years was fast enough, but what happened next was even more outrageous. He only took ten thousand years to cultivate from a Golden Immortal to a Mythical Taiyi.

One hour in the Lesser Primordial World, thirty years in the Four Great Realms, and ten thousand eight thousand years in the Great Thousand Worlds.

In other words, from Ao Bing's perspective, this person only took one hour to cultivate from a Golden Immortal to a Mythical Taiyi.

Even with time acceleration, an hour is only about ten thousand years.

As for Ao Bing, the time it took to cultivate to the mythical Taiyi level seems to be only a few thousand years, but if you take the time acceleration into account, he has cultivated for millions of years.

This person's cultivation speed is even faster than Ao Bing's.

The highest level of talent among all living beings is no higher than that of Ao Bing, so there is no one in the prehistoric world with higher talent than Ao Bing.

In this situation, the fact that this person could cultivate to the Mythical Taiyi realm at a speed exceeding that of Ao Bing can only mean one thing: this person must have received an astonishing stroke of good fortune.

"The legacy of Emperor Jun, the ruins of the ancient Heavenly Court!"

In the blink of an eye, Ao Bing realized the truth.

This person was indeed incredibly lucky. On his way to ascend to the Great Thousand World, he unexpectedly encountered the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court, the place where Di Jun and Di Jiang perished together, and obtained a wisp of the Daoist essence of the Ancient Heavenly Court from it.

It was through this Daoist essence that he was able to cultivate from a Golden Immortal to the Mythical Taiyi realm in just ten thousand years.

"wrong!"

Suddenly, Ao Bing realized something was wrong.

He was merely a Golden Immortal, with such meager cultivation. It was already an incredible stroke of luck that he survived after approaching the place where Di Jun and Di Jiang perished together. How could he possibly obtain any opportunities there?

This is unreasonable!

In their lifetimes, Di Jun and Di Jiang were genuine Grand Luo Golden Immortals of the Primordial Chaos. The place where they perished together would be a place where even a mythical Quasi-Saint would have a slim chance of survival if he dared to approach, let alone a Golden Immortal.

Before they even got close, the mere sight of this place would likely have them obliterated by the terrifying Daoist aura and supreme power emanating from it, leaving no chance of survival, let alone obtaining any opportunities.

Surprising!

This whole affair is shrouded in mystery, as if some conspiracy is hidden within. But to call it a conspiracy is a stretch. Can something so blatantly undisguised really be called a conspiracy?

Curious, Ao Bing looked at the mythical Taiyi again, and then he actually discovered some clues.

"This person's origins are questionable; he is not a truly born spirit, but rather has another origin."

Ao Bing hadn't paid attention before and hadn't realized that this person's background had been altered to conceal his true origins.

The person who altered this person's origins must have possessed immense cultivation, at least at the ninth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm. Otherwise, they wouldn't have escaped Ao Bing's perception. It took Ao Bing repeated inspections before he discovered it.

"There aren't many powerful beings above the ninth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm. I want to see who is hiding in the shadows plotting against me."

With a slight thought, Ao Bing silently used his supernatural powers, preparing to unravel the mystery, find out the true origin of this person, and pinpoint the person behind it all.

There are only a handful of powerful beings above the ninth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm in the entire prehistoric world. Even if you include the Chaos Demon Gods, there are only about a dozen of them.

Therefore, as long as he can find the slightest clue, Ao Bing can easily pinpoint the person who made the move.

What kind of strength did Ao Bing possess, and what kind of strength did the Mythical Taiyi possess? It was as if the universe were dust compared to him, completely incomparable. Therefore, when Ao Bing's divine sense entered his sea of ​​consciousness and searched his true spirit, he had no reaction at all, and was completely unaware.

Judging from this reaction, it doesn't seem like an old man undergoing a major overhaul, but rather a young pawn pushed out by some old man.

With this in mind, Ao Bing began his search. He didn't need to examine his memories, but instead used his true spirit as the foundation to trace back to the source and restore his original appearance.

A person can fake everything, but not their true spirit. The word "true" in "true spirit" says it all: the physical body and the primordial spirit can be fake, but the true spirit must be real.

If even the true spirit is false, then what about this person is real? It doesn't exist at all; it's merely a figment of imagination.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Ao Bing couldn't help but utter a sound of confusion. Under his tracing back to the source, the man's true spirit had vanished into nothingness, leaving nothing visible.

His true spirit is fake, meaning that this person is fake inside and out. He doesn't exist at all; he's a product of some powerful person's imagination.

"Can a fake become real?"

After a moment's thought, Ao Bing understood what was going on. A powerful being could create a world with a single thought, and countless living beings with a single idea.

This is just like the projected world and the stars. Although we know they are fake, they are actually no different from the real ones. They have everything that the real ones have, and they don't have anything that the real ones don't have.

But a fake is a fake. It may not be noticeable under normal circumstances, but once you trace it back to its source, the fake will immediately be exposed.

Everything that truly exists has a traceable origin. But fake things are different; they have no traceable origin and are products created out of nothing.

Therefore, once you trace back to the source, all you find is nothingness. Just like the mythical Taiyi before Ao Bing, at the end of the true spirit, there is nothingness, something created from nothing, conjured out of thin air.

"It's too tragic. The whole person is fake without even realizing it. If he can cultivate to the level of a mythical Great Luo in the future, that would be better. He would be able to use his own abilities to turn the fake into the real and transform himself from an illusory person into a real living being."

"But if you can't cultivate it, then it's all over. You'll be controlled by others for the rest of your life, and with a single thought, you'll vanish into nothingness."

Ao Bing couldn't help but shake his head. Now he could confirm that this mythical Taiyi was a pawn of some powerful figure.

Although its cultivation level was weak, it was still a thought projected by a powerful being, which is why it was able to disregard the majesty of Di Jun and Di Jiang, steal the legacy of the ancient Heavenly Court right under their noses, and successfully escape.

"There's nothing wrong with setting up chess pieces, but it's very suspicious that they've placed them here without even telling me. They might be targeting me."

Knowing this person's origins only fueled Ao Bing's curiosity. He then used his supernatural powers to traverse time and space, arriving at the place where this person was originally born, wanting to see who had manifested him.

Even something created from nothing leaves traces, though they are extremely faint, requiring immense skill to find even the slightest clue.

Fortunately, Ao Bing possessed extremely high cultivation. Therefore, if he were to focus on the investigation, unless a powerful figure of the level of Pangu intervened, there would be no trace he couldn't find.

……

After nothingness, there is still nothingness. The first layer of investigation failed, which means that the person behind the scenes is even stronger than Ao Bing thought, a being above the Primordial Chaos Realm, at the Limitless Creation Realm.

"Could it be the work of the Dao Ancestor?"

Ao Bing was somewhat surprised and uncertain. Although there were few powerful beings above the ninth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm in the Primordial World, there were still more than a dozen. However, there was only one powerful being at the Limitless Creation Realm in the Primordial World, and that was Hongjun Daozu.

The current findings make it hard for Ao Bing not to have many thoughts. But having investigated this far, there's no way he can stop now. Even if it's not the work of the Dao Ancestor, or even if it's the arrangement of the Great God Pangu, he has to grit his teeth and continue investigating.

Breaking through another layer of nothingness, Ao Bing finally saw some clues. It was the cycle of nothingness and existence, the manifestation of reincarnation on the outside.

A powerful force of reincarnation envelops the void, causing it to endlessly repeat itself. Unless this layer of reincarnation is broken, no matter how much Ao Bing investigates, behind the void lies more void, creating an endless cycle.

"The Six Paths of Reincarnation is the work of the Goddess Houtu. What is she plotting?"

Upon seeing this, Ao Bing immediately guessed who was behind it all. In the entire prehistoric world, only the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc possessed such power. And the only one who could control the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc was the Goddess Houtu.

"The Goddess Houtu wouldn't scheme against me, so she must have someone else in mind, and I just happened to get caught in the crossfire?"

Ao Bing seemed to be deep in thought. He didn't believe that Houtu Niangniang would scheme against him. Because it wasn't a question of whether she would do it, but whether she would dare to.

The greatest opportunity for the Wu Clan right now, and the foundation of their rise, lies in the Chaos Abyss, and their very lifeline is in Ao Bing's hands.

At this point, was Houtu Niangniang plotting against Ao Bing because she was afraid he wouldn't target the Wu tribe? So, let alone that Houtu Niangniang didn't have a chance to plot against him, even if she did, she wouldn't.

While turning against Ao Bing wouldn't necessarily lead to the extermination of the Wu Clan, it would certainly cut off their path to rise. Houtu Niangniang could never afford such a price, therefore, she would never intentionally antagonize Ao Bing.

In that case, the person who was plotted against by the Goddess Houtu was definitely not him, but someone else.

Thinking of this, Ao Bing couldn't help but wonder who it was that could make Houtu Niangniang go to such lengths to scheme against him.

It's important to understand that the Earth Goddess's strength will undoubtedly be among the top three in the primordial world. If she wants to deal with someone, she won't need to scheme; she can simply strike. Apart from the Dao Ancestor and Ao Bing, who in the primordial world can rival her?

The Six Paths Reincarnation Disc is a supreme treasure of chaos. Even if it only recovers one-tenth of its power, it is enough to threaten a Creation Realm expert. It can easily defeat a Primordial Grand Luo Golden Immortal and sweep them away.

This is why Ao Bing initially misjudged the situation, believing the attacker to be a Creation Realm expert. The power of the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc is comparable to that of a Creation Realm Perfection expert.

"Break the Buzhou Cauldron!"

Acting on impulse, there are few things Ao Bing can afford to hesitate about these days. So, he directly activated the Buzhou Cauldron, forcefully breaking through the power of reincarnation.

Although the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc was powerful, it was clear that the Buzhou Cauldron was superior. Therefore, when the power of the Buzhou Cauldron swept over, the power of reincarnation was immediately suppressed, revealing the hidden truth.

"This is……"

When all the disguises were removed, what appeared before Ao Bing was an incomparably blazing sun. However, although this great sun was blazing, it was not as domineering as the sun star; instead, it exuded the Daoist charm of endless creation.

The Great Sun is limitless, giving rise to endless creations; this is the path upheld by Emperor Jun!
This great sun is the manifestation of Emperor Jun!
The person that Empress Houtu went to such great lengths to scheme against was actually Emperor Jun!
This answer surprised Ao Bing, yet it made perfect sense. After all, besides Di Jun and Tai Yi, who else in the prehistoric world was worth Hou Tu Niangniang's elaborate schemes?

Ultimately, the feud between the two tribes was so deep that it bordered on genocide, with no possibility of resolution. Therefore, it was entirely reasonable for Houtu Niangniang to seek revenge. (End of Chapter)
