I start by marrying Yunxiao, who's in a vegetative state; I'm invincible in the primor

Sometimes I wonder, what is the purpose of a cultivator's entire life?

"Fellow Daoist, are you finished?"

"Just finished."

"The great calamity is without danger; the Great Dao itself will be the judge. Tell me! What if! What if I become the champion of this great struggle!"

"Wouldn't that mean... the next sage of the primordial world?"

"Hey! Classic hindsight!"

"Fellow Daoist Yang Ju, are you there? What do you think?"

"Don't ask. Fellow Daoist Yang Ju has been very busy lately. I wonder what he's been up to. It's been a long time since he's come for tea."

Yang Ju Daoist: "Actually, I was watching it while lying down, and I was watching it while sitting."

"With humanity at its core, all races and beings have the opportunity to participate. This is an opportunity given to all beings by the most impartial and just path, so why not participate?"

"Cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall behind!"

"In this age of great contention, we must contend!"

"The Great Dao is above! This is a fair and just opportunity for all living beings to change their fate!"

"Got it! Fight! We must fight!"

Beyond the realm, at the Heavenly Demon Palace.

Luo Hou sat quietly on the black lotus of destruction, remaining silent for a long time.

"By the Great Dao above! This humble Daoist Luo Hou inquires of the Great Dao: Can the Demonic Sect, which has retreated to the outer realms, also participate in this great struggle?"

The will of the Great Dao responded: "As long as they belong to the Primordial World, all living beings may participate!"

Luo Hou laughed, "Hongjun, you brat! You beast Li Yu! I've arrived!"

"This calamity! I will recoup it all, with interest!"

Deep within chaos.

Raising eyebrows, the Time God, and the God of Cause and Effect questioned the Great Dao, "We were wounded by Pangu, yet Pangu created the primordial world!"

In short, the primordial wilderness is our second home!

"In a sense, we too have an inseparable connection with the primordial world!"

"We are about to face calamity! We beseech the Great Dao to judge us!"

The Will of the Great Dao: "...Alright!"

Pangu Palace, a miniature world!

The remnant soul of Pangu hovered above the heart, smiling calmly, "I too can enter the tribulation."

"If I were to enter the tribulation and attain the top position, with the assistance of the Great Dao's fortune, I might be able to recover even one percent of my peak strength!"

……

Mount Sumeru.

Both Jieyin and Zhunti's eyes turned bloodshot.

"The titles of champion, runner-up, and third-place winner are truly destined for the West!"

"It rightfully belongs to the West!"

"If the West were to receive so much good fortune, wouldn't it be able to achieve great prosperity ahead of schedule?"

"The West cannot afford to miss this opportunity!"

The primordial wilderness, the netherworld.

Houtu sensed the will of the Great Dao, and even her calm Dao heart was stirred.

"All things and all living beings can participate..."

"The Great Dao is above..."

The will of the Great Dao descended: "Houtu... you're out of the question. After the calamity, the Great Dao will reward you for guarding the Netherworld, with a reward no less than that for the second-place finisher..."

Houtu opened her mouth as if to speak but then stopped. What Houtu wanted was not a reward.

Rather, it is an opportunity to participate in a world of great strife!

At that time, the Great Way will retreat into seclusion!

Amidst the fierce struggle... a glimmer of hope lies hidden.

Houtu wanted to fight for a sliver of hope, a sliver of hope to revive the eleven ancestral witches!

Houtu sighed softly, "This is a matter of great importance... Ordinary cultivators absolutely cannot do it... Nor would they dare to do it..."

Houtu hesitated, wondering if Li Yu would agree to help her...

Speaking rashly would greatly damage the relationship between humanity and the local community.

Houtu was still hesitating...

The ancestral home of humankind.

Small courtyard.

The Styx River cried out, its voice brimming with eager anticipation, "Emperor Qin Shi Huang, take us on another charge!"

"I, Styx, swear to follow the First Emperor to the death, my loyalty unwavering!"

Li Yu smiled calmly, "No rush, it hasn't even started yet."

Time is like quicksand, slipping away unnoticed!

Another century has passed, and the Shang Dynasty has declined even further!

The once peaceful and clear wilderness has once again become noisy, chaotic, and bustling!

The most discussed topic is the era of great strife!

However, how exactly to participate in this great struggle was a complete mystery to the cultivators.

We had no choice but to wait quietly.

During this period, Hongjun frequently held meetings at Zixiao Palace, but he only summoned Taiqing, Yuqing, and Nuwa.

Nuwa had barely finished her meeting when she immediately sent Golden Phoenix to the ancestral land to report the news in real time.

Hongjun knew, but pretended not to.

Because Hongjun himself did not know how to participate in the Great Struggle, he also wanted to try to gather information from Li Yu!

A mere century!

The primordial world seemed to be becoming increasingly treacherous, filled with cunning and deceit.

The authentic, prehistoric world is back!

To fight against the heavens, to fight against the earth, to fight against all living beings—the joy is boundless!

……

On this day, the remnant soul of Pangu transmitted a message to Li Yu!

Li Yu visited the Pangu Temple and met Pangu.

The remnant soul of Pangu did not mince words, stating directly: "I wish to participate in the great strife and chaos."

"Young friend, there's no need to feel pressured. I've won first place; the runner-up spot is yours."

Li Yu: "?? Pressure? What pressure could I possibly have?"

The remnant soul of Pangu chuckled, "Young friend, aren't you afraid of not winning the championship?"

Li Yu laughed, "The leader of trash only has one Chaos Spiritual Treasure and five hundred million strands of Great Dao Luck. He's actually just average."

Pangu's remnant soul widened its eyes: "??? What are you talking about? That's the destiny of the Great Dao, not the destiny of Heaven! The destiny of the Great Dao is unaffected by cause and effect!"

Li Yu wanted to say that he had not wasted his time in the past ten thousand years!

Concentricity Points, you'll never run out!

I can exchange luck points from the system shop almost every day!

Little by little, it adds up to hundreds of millions of strands. This fortune is also untouched by cause and effect, even more advanced than the Great Dao, and safe!

and so!

Li Yu said with a serious expression, "I'm not interested in luck rewards or anything like that, really not interested!"

"This era of great strife is so interesting, we should definitely enjoy it first!"

Li Yu even bluntly stated, "Everyone has two chances!"

"Then in my first life, I'll reluctantly be 'King Fuchai of Wu' and enjoy myself for a lifetime first."

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, the remnant soul of Pangu was taken aback. "Why does Li Yu seem so confident... does he know some inside information?"

The remnant soul of Pangu chuckled, "Young friend, I wish to be reincarnated. What are your thoughts?"

"Let's accumulate experience in this first life, and enjoy ourselves first."

Pangu seemed to be deep in thought.

Li Yu returned to his ancestral homeland, awaiting the onset of a great calamity.

Kong Xuan sat on the crater, "An opportunity! I have a premonition! This great calamity will be my once-in-a-millennium opportunity to attain enlightenment!"

"But... I have absolutely no clue."

then!

Kong Xuan stared at the falling volcanic ash, gritted his teeth, and made up his mind. He smeared his face with volcanic ash, deliberately creating a disheveled appearance, "I'm not pretending anymore! The First Emperor is indeed peerless in his elegance and handsome appearance, only 0.00001 points behind me!"

Kong Xuan arrived at the ancestral land of the human race and paid his respects to the principal.

Li Yu opened the door and saw Kong Xuan, who was covered in dust and dirt. "What happened? Why do you look like this?"

Kong Xuan hesitated and stammered.

"Never mind, it doesn't matter. Come in. The first training course of the Great Contradiction Era will start in a couple of days."

Kong Xuan was thrilled upon hearing this, exclaiming, "That's wonderful! I'm back to being one of the principal's top students!"

Kong Xuan entered the courtyard and found that Styx had already arrived.

Tongtian Shengren, Zhen Yuanzi, Duobao, Zhao Gongming, and others were also present.

Even the lamp-lighting monk has come...

"broken!"

A sense of crisis loomed over Kong Xuan.

"Brother Styx, why didn't you call out to me when you came?"

Styx: "Do we even need to shout? Shouldn't we have arrived immediately?"

Kong Xuan: "Ah, right, right, right!"

Seeing Kong Xuan's face covered in dust, looking weathered and worn, Styx smiled with relief. "Kong Xuan, oh Kong Xuan, you've finally figured it out! You know how to avoid the First Emperor's wrath!"

"Not bad, Kong Xuan."

Kong Xuan: "Brother Styx, why don't you put it more clearly?"

Styx smiled and said, "Let me ask you, who is more handsome, the First Emperor or you?"

Kong Xuan smiled calmly, "Is that even a question?"

Styx nodded knowingly, "Alright! Finally..."

However, Styx had not finished speaking.

Kong Xuan: "Emperor Qin Shi Huang was exceptionally handsome and dashing, but he still lost to me by 0.00001 points in elegance and refinement! Who is more handsome? The bag is mine!"

The smile on Styx's face vanished abruptly. "Damn you, Kong Erlengzi! No wonder you'll never become a sage!"

"This is truly infuriating!"
