Primordial: From a grain of soil to the ancestor of all paths

Chapter 185 Heavenly Punishment Seal, Heart of Pangu

chaos.

Zixiao Palace.

A primordial, crystal-clear jade disc of creation hovered in mid-air.

Billions upon billions of primordial purple qi and pure primordial power of the Heavenly Dao descended, emanating an aura of supreme power and the eternity of the Great Dao, before slowly merging into Hongjun's true spiritual origin.

"Wow—"

With the continuous blessing of the Heavenly Dao's essence, Hongjun took control of the inherited 'Immortal Dao' and reshaped his true Dao body.

"Qinglian——"

"I will make you wish you were dead!"

Hongjun, who had always maintained a calm and serene demeanor, now had a somewhat ferocious expression, and his eyes emitted two incredibly terrifying beams of divine light that pierced through all dimensions of time and space.

An overwhelming rage swept out, causing the two boys standing nearby to faint from fright.

"Om-"

next moment.

The Jade Disc of Creation above their heads rotated gently.

Strands of the will of Heaven descended and entered his sea of consciousness, as if admonishing and warning him.

"God is above all——"

"Having suffered such a severe injury today, if I do not slay this Azure Lotus, how can I call myself the Primordial Dao Ancestor? What qualifications will I have to act as the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao in the future?"

Hongjun looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with anger and determination, showing no trace of 'acting' whatsoever.

"Wow!——"

The Jade Disc of Creation once again burst forth with the brilliant essence of the Heavenly Dao's will.

Within this supreme radiance of the Heavenly Dao, a ten-inch square seal slowly condensed and manifested, radiating boundless Heavenly Dao will and primordial power.

It's as if just one glance is enough to make someone understand the ultimate truth of the universe, and then be silenced and assimilated!

The seal is purplish-gold in color, with the character "天" (heaven) engraved on its top.

Even Hongjun, the first saint of the primordial world, couldn't help but feel awe and a sense of reverence upon seeing the 'Heavenly Punishment Seal'.

“Swish!——”

The Heavenly Punishment Seal, imbued with the boundless essence of the Heavenly Dao's will, actively entered Hongjun's sea of consciousness.

"I will obey the will of Heaven!"

next moment.

Hongjun's eyes changed slightly. He stood on the auspicious nine-colored clouds and solemnly bowed to the sky with utmost respect.

"snort!--"

"Qinglian, since the Heavenly Dao has issued a decree, I will spare your life!"

"The day I sacrifice myself to merge with the Dao and become the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao will be the day your soul is scattered!"

His ancient and indifferent divine eyes gazed at Qinglian, whose robes fluttered in the wind, his icy killing intent undisguised.

As the Creation Jade Disc above his head voluntarily entered his sea of consciousness, Hongjun maintained his indifferent and cold expression, but the slight upturn of his lips revealed his true state of mind.

Ever since it was confirmed that the consciousness awakened by the Heavenly Dao was inferior to that of the true innate deities, Hongjun had been plotting something.

He knew the greatest flaw in the Heavenly Dao—that was to push the Great Dao into seclusion, thereby truly dominating the primordial world!
In order to achieve its goal, Heaven can tolerate variables such as the Primordial Beginning and the Azure Lotus, and can even tolerate the alteration of the established general trend.

After discovering this flaw, Hongjun began to make his plans.

When the Three Pure Ones and the Azure Lotus clashed, they first gave Yuanshi the hope of protection, allowing them to grow stronger.

Even if the primordial world suffers great destruction, this karma will be borne by Pangu's younger sister or his primordial spirit son, indirectly consuming Pangu's legacy and control over the primordial world.

When Yuanshi formally asks for help, Hongjun will personally take action.

As he predicted—

After attaining the Great Luo Dao, Qinglian also followed the path of integrating all Daos and "proving the Dao with power," and her control over Pangu's will reached a new level.

By using Pangu's will to mobilize the primordial will of the entire prehistoric world, it is indeed possible to unleash the power to slay even a saint of the Heavenly Dao!
Hongjun could use the excuse of revenge to take revenge on the only lotus seed that the Creation Lotus had given birth to.

Heavenly Dao certainly did not want to see this scene, because the Azure Lotus inherited the fortune and destiny of the Creation Azure Lotus and Pangu. If Hongjun forcibly killed it, it would inevitably cause the primordial world to collapse and the earth to crack, and might even trigger an immeasurable calamity!
In order to appease Hongjun, the spokesperson, the Heavenly Dao had no choice but to grant him some authority and benefits in advance, passing on one of the most crucial items, the 'Heavenly Punishment Seal,' to him.

It hopes that Hongjun can sacrifice himself to make up for his own shortcomings as soon as possible, and then become the true spokesperson, so that the purpose of Heaven will naturally be achieved smoothly!
By the time--

Hongjun, this mere tool, is still completely under its control, isn't he?

However, Heaven underestimated Hongjun. It never expected that he was one of the masterminds behind the infighting among Pangu's lineage!

Now that he has achieved his goal, what changes will he bring to the future of the Heavenly Dao?

…………

Qinglian seemed to sense Hongjun's murderous gaze. She looked towards the Thirty-Three Heavens with extreme vigilance, but after waiting for a long time, she did not see Hongjun make another move.

"Could it be that the will of Heaven is interfering?"

soon--

Qinglian then realized the real reason.

“Swish!——”

She composed herself and began her journey towards Mount Buzhou.

Given Hongjun's temperament, he would never easily let this grudge go.

Moreover, in front of billions of living beings in the primordial world, he controlled his brother's will and cleaved him to death with an axe.

Not only did it shatter the great maxim he had passed down, "All those below the sage are but ants," but it also completely destroyed the prestige he had accumulated over countless eras, making him a laughingstock among billions of living beings.

"Greetings, Auntie!"

When the twelve ancestral witches saw Qinglian descend upon the ancestral hall, they all came to greet her with great joy.

"You needn't stand on ceremony!"

With a casual wave of her sleeve, Qinglian stepped into the ancient and majestic Pangu Palace. Throughout the entire primordial world—

If there were a place that was absolutely safe.

Aside from the place where the elder brother's will resides, there is the Pangu Palace right before our eyes.

As a transformation of Pangu's head, its grade is comparable to a Chaos Treasure. Even if Hongjun, controlling the will of Heaven, were to take action, he would not be able to break through this palace, let alone seek revenge against himself!

Qinglian came here to see if her brother had any other tricks up his sleeve.

"Wow!——"

As soon as I stepped into the main hall, a profound and mysterious Taoist aura permeated the air.

What she saw at first glance was the towering stone statue in the center of the main hall, a statue that seemed to look down upon the ages.

"Qinglian greets her elder brother!"

Upon reaching the stone statue, she solemnly stepped forward and bowed.

"Boom!—"

As the profound and mysterious Daoist aura grew stronger, a peculiar, deep sound began to resonate throughout the hall, like the beating of a heart.

“Swish!——”

The twelve Ancestral Witches all turned their gazes toward the Blood Pool in the secret realm on the left.

All along——

Legend has it that the Heart of Pangu exists in the Blood Pool of this secret realm, providing immense energy for the birth of members of the Wu Clan, but none of the Ancestral Wu have ever seen it.

However, the moment Aunt Qinglian stepped in, the Father God's heart manifested on its own initiative.

Isn't this incredible?

"Wow!——"

The heartbeat became increasingly rapid.

A purple-gold passage appeared within the blood pool.

A huge, purple-gold heart floats above the main hall, corresponding to the Pangu stone statue.

It was like a vast universe, exuding an aura of supreme power, timelessness, and eternal dominance, causing all the ancestral witches present to tremble with fear.

In front of him—

While all the ancestral witches felt connected by blood, they also felt an immense sense of insignificance.

"Boom!—"

The purplish-gold heart slowly shrank, and when it reached about twelve feet, it seemed to have truly manifested itself from that distant dimension, with a vast and majestic Daoist aura permeating the air.

The wisps of the essence of the 'Great Dao of Power' emanated, causing Qinglian's expression to suddenly change.

In an instant——

The Pangu stone statue standing in the center of the main hall exuded a divine aura, which stirred the heart of Pangu before him, and slowly condensed on it an invincible figure that was supreme and had been dominating the ages.

"Brother?——"

"Greetings, Father God!—"

Upon seeing this towering, majestic phantom, the Twelve Ancestral Witches solemnly stepped forward and bowed, while Qinglian showed a look of closeness and curiosity, even taking the initiative to move closer.

However, He and the heart seemed to exist in different dimensions of space and time. Even though the Azure Lotus was incredibly close, they were still separated by endless dimensions, making it impossible to touch or fathom them.

Be aware of this.

Qinglian activated her own innate Great Dao origin, then looked at the Twelve Ancestral Witches and instructed them to circulate the "Nine Revolutions of Primordial Chaos" technique passed down from their elder brother.

"Om-"

"Woo——"

The primordial essence of the Creation Lotus permeated the air, and together with the immense power of blood and qi emanating from the twelve Ancestral Witches, it guided the 'Great Dao of Power' emanating from the Heart of Pangu, and slowly merged with it.

"Wow—"

This towering, majestic phantom slowly solidified, its eyes, which had been like black holes, instantly opened, and two dazzling golden rays of primordial energy pierced through all dimensions of time and space, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime.

"Brother——"

"Your plans for the prehistoric world have been disrupted by the Heavenly Dao. Even your former subordinate, the ghost Hongjun, has become the Dao Ancestor of the prehistoric world and has taken your primordial spirit son, the Three Pure Ones, into his fold, thus disgracing your reputation."

The originally aloof and arrogant Qinglian, upon witnessing this scene, seemed to have found true support and spoke to the phantom of Pangu about the current state of the primordial world.

He also denounced the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun, as well as the three unfilial sons who acted as accomplices!

“Swish!——”

The phantom of Pangu moved its lips as if it were saying something, but it made no sound and transmitted no energy fluctuations.

It was as if some special rule was hindering or isolating all of this.

"call out!--"

next moment.

The phantom of Pangu held a heaven-opening axe in his hands, as if he were reversing the future, and the endless void was shattered.

“Swish!——”

A dazzling ray of divine light entered the Azure Lotus's sea of consciousness.

At the same time, twelve drops of purplish-gold essence blood shot out from Pangu's heart, heading straight for the twelve ancestral witches behind her.

Once all this is done—

Everything in the center of the main hall remained the same, as if nothing had ever happened.

However, the divine light of the Great Dao in the Azure Lotus Sea of Consciousness and the essence blood of Pangu in the Sea of Consciousness of the Twelve Ancestral Witches can clearly prove that everything that just happened was real!
　I've reached 500,000 words, and I've never missed a single day of updating. A little something to commemorate that!
