Primordial Era: A man at the mouth of the Guanjiang River marries the Third Holy Mother.

Inside the Purple Cloud Palace, the chaotic energy surged violently.

Hongjun Daozu steadied the cloud bed, a rare look of astonishment flashing across his usually placid face.

His eyes, which seemed to see through the past and present of the three realms, narrowed slightly. The Jade Disc of Creation spun rapidly above his head, and endless laws of heaven intertwined to form a net, instantly enveloping the primordial land.

In just a moment, Hongjun's gaze pierced through the endless void and locked onto the depths of the East Sea.

Deep within that shattered island shrouded in chaotic mist, a familiar figure stood in a bottomless pit, cradling a broken box radiating nine-colored divine light.

Chen Changsheng!

It's that kid again!

Hongjun Daozu's lips twitched involuntarily.

He had barely left Penglai Island when this kid caused such a huge uproar.

This extremely pure source of power even made him, a Dao Integration cultivator, feel his heart pound with fear; it was as if the great god Pangu had come back to life.

"What a troublesome little brat."

Hongjun shook his head helplessly and muttered something under his breath.

He knew very well that if this aura was allowed to run rampant in the prehistoric world, the six restless saints below would definitely come out in full force, and the East Sea would surely be sunk.

The Investiture of the Gods calamity has not yet officially begun. If the chessboard is overturned now, the order of Heaven will surely be thrown into chaos.

Thinking of this, Hongjun raised the large sleeve of his blue Taoist robe and gently pressed it into the void.

"Disperse."

A mysterious and unfathomable primordial energy of the Heavenly Dao traversed endless time and space, silently descending upon the skies above the East China Sea.

This power transformed into a giant, transparent net, completely sealing off the void within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles around Penglai Immortal Island.

The dazzling pillar of light that had soared into the sky and tore through the thirty-three heavens vanished instantly under the suppression of this force.

The chaotic laws governing the universe returned to calm in the blink of an eye.

All causes and effects, all phenomena, were completely wiped clean.

……

Shouyang Mountain, Bajing Palace.

The magnificent Heaven and Earth Pagoda above the Supreme Sage's head shone brightly, fully deducing the secrets of heaven.

Suddenly, the river of time that had been condensing before him collapsed violently, turning into specks of white light and dissipating into the air.

"Um?"

The Supreme Sage frowned deeply, and the whisk in his hand suddenly stopped.

Gone!

That domineering and unparalleled power of creation vanished completely just before he was about to touch it.

No matter how much he activated the power of the sage, the result of his calculations was always nothingness.

"How could it just vanish into thin air?"

The figure of Yuanshi Tianzun appeared from the void, his face extremely grim.

He, a dignified Heavenly Saint who wielded a portion of the Heavenly Dao's authority, couldn't even find a trace of the other party.

"Brother, even you can't figure this out?"

The tone of the Primordial Celestial Venerable was full of resentment.

This power is too special. If it is the birth of a supreme treasure or the awakening of an ancient being, the Chan Sect must seize the initiative.

The Supreme Sage remained silent for a moment, then slowly raised his head to look at the outer heavens, and said in a low voice, "The secrets of heaven have been erased by the supreme being. It is not something that you or I can force. Let's disperse."

Jin'ao Island, Biyou Palace.

The four swords of Zhuxian behind the Tongtian Sect Leader rang out, their sword energy stretching across ninety thousand miles.

"Strange, truly strange!"

The Tongtian Sect Leader withdrew his divine sense and rubbed his temples in frustration.

He had originally planned to go and join in the fun, and was even prepared to fight with the other saints.

In the blink of an eye, all the clues disappeared.

"Could it be that the teacher intervened?"

A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the Tongtian Sect Leader. Apart from the one from Zixiao Palace, no one in the prehistoric world could hide the commotion so cleanly under his nose.

Mount Sumeru in the West.

The Taoist Master Zhunti was so anxious that he kept stamping his feet and rubbing his hands together inside his monk's robe.

"It's broken! It's completely broken!"

"Senior brother, this was absolutely a peerless divine artifact! How could it just disappear like that!"

Zhunti Daoist beat his chest and stamped his feet, his face full of pain, as if he had lost a supreme innate treasure.

The guide closed his eyes, chanting Buddhist mantras. His face was more pained than usual. He just sighed softly and didn't say anything.

……

At this very moment, deep beneath the Penglai Immortal Island.

Chen Changsheng was naturally unaware that the Dao Ancestor had secretly cleaned up his mess, and even less aware that the six great saints outside were almost driven to madness by his actions.

The soaring divine light slowly receded under the suppression of the Dao Ancestor, and in the deep pit 99,999 feet underground, the intense white light gradually became gentle.

Xuan Gui Dao Ren crawled out of the distant mountain ruins, covered in dust, and flew back to the edge of the pit.

He looked down at the bottom of the pit, his throat bobbing involuntarily.

"Young friend... who... who is behind this treasure?"

The voice of the Xuan Gui Dao Ren was noticeably trembling.

The moment that aura burst forth, he felt as if his soul was being torn apart.

He had only ever felt that kind of power that transcended all living beings in one being when the world was first created.

Pangu!

Did this kid dig out the coffin lid of the great god Pangu?

Chen Changsheng did not answer the Xuan Turtle's question.

He was now completely focused on the level nine treasure chest in front of him.

The lid of the box had been completely opened, and the nine-colored divine light inside rippled like water, finally revealing the true appearance of the treasure at its core.

Chen Changsheng's eyes widened, and he craned his neck, eagerly looking towards the very center of the box.

The light gradually faded.

The violent air currents in the deep underground pit completely subsided.

Chen Changsheng's heart was in his throat, and he held his breath completely.

This is a level nine treasure chest!

The highest-level chest in the system!

If an eighth-level treasure chest yields a God-Slaying Spear capable of harming a Saint's Dao Fruit, what can a ninth-level treasure chest contain?

A complete thirty-six-petaled Chaos Green Lotus?

Or is it the true form of the Heaven-Opening Axe?

Or perhaps the legendary Chaos Pearl that vanished?

Countless unparalleled treasures that would shake the world flashed through Chen Changsheng's mind, his eyes gleamed with a green light, and he trembled with excitement.

however.

The moment the nine-colored divine light completely faded, revealing the true scene at the bottom of the box.

The expression of ecstasy on Chen Changsheng's face froze completely in an instant.

There was no malevolent or demonic energy capable of destroying the world.

There is no supreme divine light that illuminates all the heavens.

There were no imposing divine weapons or sharp blades.

In the very center of that huge, ancient box, lay a small, lonely object.

It was a small, round ball about the size of a longan, milky white in color, with a pitted and uneven surface.

It looks like an ordinary, immature plant seed.

There wasn't even the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy; it was all dusty and gray, and no one would bother to pick it up if it fell on the roadside.

The pit was deathly silent.

Only the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the soil could be heard.

Chen Changsheng rubbed his eyes and then pinched his thigh hard.
