Primordial Era: I am a treasure trove, full of magical treasures.

The chaotic ball of light, combining the essence of Xuanbao's blood, primordial spirit, and the subtle origins of the three thousand and eighty laws, spun wildly, collapsed, and expanded in the center of the Pingxin Hall, evolving into an immeasurable scene of creation and the separation of chaos! The Dao's voice boomed, resounding throughout the newly born Netherworld, even causing the Great Dao of the entire primordial world to resonate slightly! Houtu watched this scene in awe. She could clearly sense that what was being nurtured within that ball of light was a prototype of the "Heavenly Dao," something she had never seen before, yet seemingly inherently rightfully so—a concept unique to this newly born Netherworld.

Ah!

Is it not enough?

"Pfft!" Xuanbao spat out another mouthful of chaotic blood essence, his face instantly turning ashen white, his aura rapidly weakening, and even his body swaying. The consumption for Xuanbao was far beyond imagination! This was not only a depletion of his magic power, blood essence, and primordial spirit, but also an extreme exploitation of his very essence! If Xuanbao hadn't controlled so many laws and possessed such heaven-defying foundation, this would have been enough to cause him to fall from his cultivation level, or even explode on the spot! But Xuanbao's eyes remained sharp as knives, staring intently at the ball of light, his hands continuously outputting magic power, forcibly stabilizing his churning blood and turbulent primordial spirit. Although it was dangerous, it was worth the gamble. He could become the Heavenly Dao of a top-tier Great Thousand World, at least a Saint Realm cultivator. Then he would have a Saint Realm clone. It was a gamble that could turn a bicycle into a motorcycle; the risk was worth taking.

"Melt it for me!" Xuanbao shouted in a low voice, his tone carrying an unquestionable resolve.

The chaotic ball of light trembled violently, halting its disordered evolution and instantly collapsing into an extremely small singularity that seemed to contain endless worlds and immeasurable laws. Then, the singularity erupted with a deafening roar, transforming into a vast will—formless and intangible yet omnipresent, filled with order, coldness, and majesty, yet carrying a trace of the unique aura of a mystical treasure—like an invisible storm, instantly sweeping across every inch of the newly born Netherworld, every law, and every wisp of its origin!

"Whoosh—!"

The newly born Netherworld seemed to come alive instantly! The world, previously somewhat chaotic and restless due to the forced integration of the three thousand and eighty laws, instantly returned to a profound and orderly operation the moment this grand will descended! The stagnant expansion of the boundaries stabilized and expanded again, and at a faster and more orderly pace; the slightly conflicting laws harmonized and straightened out, forming a perfectly self-consistent and endlessly vital vast network; earth, water, fire, and wind arose from nothingness, the pure and turbid energies naturally separated, and the illusory images of the sun, moon, and stars of Netherworld attributes slowly condensed their outlines in the sky, while a deep pulse emanated from the depths of the earth—the heart of the world was taking shape! The aura of the entire world rose and stabilized at an astonishing speed, radiating a vast, perfect, and endlessly vital Daoist charm unique to top-tier Great Thousand Worlds!

This grand will is the "Heavenly Dao" of this newly born Netherworld!

Of course, one could also say it's a clone of Xuanbao. As for whether the clone's strength is higher than the original body, and whether it will turn around and kill the original body, Xuanbao is confident in this. He's not confident in others, but in himself. The prehistoric world is not peaceful, and he wouldn't do something like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. Besides, if a clone could kill the original body so easily, then the Styx River would have been chopped into whistles by his clone. 480 million Blood God Children, that's not just talk.

"It's done!" Houtu felt the dramatic changes in the Netherworld, her eyes bursting with unprecedented brilliance. For the first time, her eternally sorrowful face revealed a relieved and genuinely joyful smile, as if she had unloaded an ancient burden. She could clearly sense that this Netherworld Great Thousand World had been completely stabilized. Its grade, foundation, laws, and potential were absolutely at the level of a top-tier Great Thousand World, or even surpassed it! More importantly, because Xuanbao had transformed into the Heavenly Dao, this world had gained consciousness! It wasn't that the Heavenly Dao was heartless; in this way, the Earthly Dao gained another Saint-level combatant. As for whether Xuanbao would be detrimental to the Witch Clan, Houtu hadn't even considered that. It was a joke; if Xuanbao hadn't intervened several times, the Witch Clan would probably have become the common enemy of all races long ago, and how could they have this glimmer of hope now?

"Brother!" Houtu looked at Xuanbao, whose aura was weak and whose face was pale, her eyes filled with undisguised gratitude, heartache, and pride. She knew that without Xuanbao's astonishing methods, without his resolute act of using his own laws to create the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, the Underworld could never have so perfectly and so quickly advanced to a top-tier Great Thousand World, and it would never have left such a solid escape route for the Witch Clan.

"Sister... I have not failed you." Xuanbao managed a weak smile, his voice slightly strained, but his eyes remained bright. He subtly connected with the newly formed will of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao. In an instant, the laws of the entire Netherworld Great Thousand World rippled slightly. Endless, pure, and gentle Netherworld primordial energy and Reincarnation Purple Qi surged from all directions, like rivers flowing into the sea, frantically pouring into Xuanbao's body, nourishing his damaged essence and primordial spirit, and repairing his turbulent Dao foundation. This was the Heavenly Dao of this world feeding back to Xuanbao's physical body, its efficiency far exceeding that of absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world.

After a short while, Xuanbao's complexion regained some color, and his breathing stabilized. Although the damage was still immense and would take a long time to fully recover, he was no longer seriously injured. He felt the profound connection between himself and this vast, dark world, as if with a single thought he could mobilize a portion of the world's power and vaguely perceive everything happening within it. This wasn't because Xuanbao directly controlled this world, but rather because it was a natural authority and perception inherent in the Heavenly Dao.

Unexpectedly, not only the clone can mobilize the power of heaven and earth, but the main body can also mobilize the power of heaven and earth. Doesn't this mean that the main body can also unleash upgraded combat power?

An unexpected delight.

However, this world cannot withstand Xuanbao and his clone Tiandao simultaneously mobilizing the power of heaven and earth. After all, it is still a new world. But Xuanbao was not discouraged at all. He could unleash saint-level combat power in a short time. What more could he ask for?

"Brother, how are you feeling?" Houtu asked with concern, and with a wave of her hand, a stream of pure holy power flowed into Xuanbao's body to help stabilize him.

"It's alright, sister. A little damage can be easily recovered with the nourishment of this realm's origin." Xuanbao waved his hand, his gaze sweeping over the newly transformed Netherworld, a look of satisfaction in his eyes. "Now that this realm is complete, it can be named the 'Netherworld Realm.' Its vast territory is enough to accommodate the entire Witch Clan, and even more beings. Its laws are perfect, its spiritual energy abundant, forming a self-contained cycle. Here, the Witch Clan's progress will not be much slower than in the Primordial World. More importantly, this realm is stable, its world barrier is resilient, and with my Heavenly Dao avatar and sister guarding it, even if the Primordial World outside is in chaos, it will be difficult to shake the foundation of this realm, making it sufficient as the Witch Clan's last resort."

However, such a grand commotion as opening up the vast world in the underworld could not be concealed.

"boom--!!!"

The instant Xuanbao finished speaking, the most violent and profound tremor since the creation of the world erupted without warning throughout the entire primordial world! This was not just a local tremor, but a tremor that shook the entire primordial world, causing violent fluctuations and resonances in the most fundamental network of laws that constituted the primordial world! It was like a calm lake being splashed with chaotic stars, or like a giant net stretched to its limit being violently struck!

Throughout the entire primordial world, from the Thirty-Three Heavens and the Four Seas and Eight Desolations to famous mountains and caves, all sentient beings whose cultivation had reached the Golden Immortal level or above experienced a violent tremor in their hearts and minds, their Dao hearts wavering, and a sense of immense terror and unease arose as if the heavens were about to collapse and the earth was about to be overturned! Countless cave restrictions activated on their own, spiritual veins became disordered, rare birds and beasts prostrated themselves and cried out in anguish, rivers flowed backward, and mountains trembled! Even those reclusive great beings who had long since withdrawn from worldly affairs and secluded themselves for countless ages were forcibly awakened from their deepest meditation by this violent upheaval originating from the very source of the world, and stared in horror at the source of the turmoil—the Netherworld, on the shores of the Sea of ​​Blood!

There, a pillar of light, its color indescribable, seemingly embodying all concepts of "darkness," "profundity," "end," and "destination" since the beginning of chaos, rose fiercely from the depths of the Blood Sea and the core of the Underworld, reaching beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens and disappearing into the unknowable depths of chaos! The pillar of light was as thick as a pillar supporting the heavens, its diameter unknown, spanning hundreds of millions of miles, enveloping the entire Netherworld Blood Sea and even the endless void surrounding it! The brightness of the pillar surpassed all other lights in the world, yet strangely, it was not dazzling; instead, it radiated a "dark" brilliance that devoured everything and froze the soul into silence!

Under the illumination of this dark pillar of light that pierced through heaven and earth, the once surging, scarlet, and malevolent Netherworld Blood Sea instantly became "docile" and "dimmed." Endless purple aura of reincarnation and dark Daoist runes rose from its surface, evolving into a vast spectacle of the six realms of reincarnation, the birth and death of all beings, and the cycle of creation and destruction! Even more astonishingly, at the core of the pillar of light, a "world phantom"—its boundaries imperceptible with divine sense and its entirety unfathomable with the Dharma Eye—radiating the unique, perfect, vast, and ever-renewing Daoist charm of a top-tier Great Thousand World, was rapidly solidifying and expanding above the Blood Sea and within the Netherworld void, like ink spreading on rice paper, at a speed surpassing the passage of time!

"That's... the Underworld?! No! It's... a Great Thousand World! A newly born, top-tier Great Thousand World! Right above the Sea of ​​Blood, connected to the Underworld?!" Countless powerful beings probed with their divine senses, only to be violently repelled as if they had struck an invisible barrier containing the supreme laws of reincarnation and the netherworld. They were even injured by the backlash. Only the most elite beings could barely "see" the blurry outline and sense the heart-palpitating, flawless Three Thousand Great Dao Laws within it, as well as the cold and majestic, yet mysterious and vibrant, "Heavenly Dao" will hidden at the core of the world, as if it had just been born!

"How is this possible?! The Underworld... has been promoted to a Great Thousand World?! And a top-tier one at that! This... this is about to open up a new world!" Countless gasps of astonishment echoed in the hidden corners of the prehistoric world.

At Kunlun Mountain, the Three Pure Ones, who were originally in seclusion on the Three Immortal Islands, sensed the changes in the primordial world and came to the Three Pure Ones Hall at the same time.

"A top-tier Great Thousand World... the laws of reincarnation and the Netherworld are perfected, all three thousand Great Daos are complete... even..." Laozi's usually calm face was now deeply furrowed, his fingertips frantically calculating, "Sure enough, it's that little guy again, capable of doing so many earth-shattering things." However, as he began to calculate! In fact, it was because Xuanbao hadn't hidden anything at all. Just as Laozi started calculating, Xuanbao sensed the fluctuation of his own causal lines, and after sensing it, he discovered it was his master, so he didn't conceal it.

Hmm! Xuanbao actually created a Heavenly Dao clone?!

Upon seeing the whole story, the Three Pure Ones all gaped in astonishment. Is this reasonable?

You should know that Hongjun wanted to become the Heavenly Dao, but he has not yet succeeded completely. Unexpectedly, Xuanbao has become the Heavenly Dao of a Great Thousand World without making a sound. Although the Great Thousand World cannot be compared with the Primordial World, it has the combat power of a Saint. How many Saints can there be in the Primordial World?

"Based on its own laws, it severed an avatar, transforming into the Heavenly Dao of a realm?!" The eyes of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable burst forth with Jade Pure Immortal Light, his voice filled with disbelief, "How many laws does this Mystic Treasure control?! It can actually support the complete operation of the Heavenly Dao of a top-tier Great Thousand World!"

"Haha! Good! Well done!" The Tongtian Sect Leader was initially shocked, then clapped his hands and laughed, his eyes flashing with sword light, full of excitement and pride. "This is truly my good disciple! Quietly creating such a commotion! The Netherworld has transformed into a Great Thousand World, and even produced an incarnation of the Heavenly Dao! This is going to be interesting. Those feathered beasts of the demon race, and those old schemers plotting in the shadows, are probably going to have sleepless nights! Eldest brother, second brother, shall we go take a look? Let's support Xuanbao?"

Laozi pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "At this moment, the Netherworld is newly formed, its laws are not yet stable, and the Heavenly Dao is newly born. It is the most sensitive and vulnerable time. Let us observe for a while." As he spoke, he pointed to the sky, his meaning clear: the three of them should first guard against the Heavenly Dao's intervention, which could be detrimental to the current Xuanbao and cause unforeseen changes.

In the West, at Mount Ling. The sorrow on the faces of Jieyin and Zhunti was now so intense that it could not be dispelled, and even carried a trace of fear and... a deep sense of jealousy.

"A top-tier Great Thousand World!" Zhunti Daoist nearly crushed the prayer beads in his hand, his voice hoarse. "Senior Brother, how exactly did that Xuanbao manage to do that? Has he perhaps attained the Primordial Chaos Realm? No, even at the Primordial Chaos Realm, it's unlikely that one could so easily create and support a top-tier Great Thousand World. Such methods are unheard of!"

The Guide Daoist's face was ashen, and the extinguished Buddhist light around him fluctuated violently. He sighed bitterly, "Amitabha... Xuanbao is beyond our ability to scheme against. Junior brother, please don't do anything foolish. I know that ever since Xuanbao robbed his junior brother, Zhunti has been looking for an opportunity to take revenge, but unfortunately, the enemy is too powerful and there is no chance at all. Now that Xuanbao has the ability to create a great world, I am very worried that my foolish junior brother will do something stupid."

Of course, this was only because they didn't know that Xuanbao already had a Heavenly Dao clone with the battle power of a Saint; otherwise, there would be no need for Jieyin to say anything more!

Zhunti naturally wanted to stay as far away as possible. What a joke! They were brothers. Although they were now among the few saints in the prehistoric world, their strength was really only that of the younger brother.

There's absolutely no human rights here!
