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

As he watched this vast world crumble, Xuanbao felt a pang of regret.

Although the Demon Realm is in ruins, it is still a vast world, and it would be a waste to destroy it like this. Moreover, the Demon Realm still contains fragments of Rahu's Daoist essence and laws. If we can make them our own, they might become a great help in the future fight against the Chaos Demon God.

"The World Tree...!"

A flash of inspiration struck Xuanbao, and he immediately took out a tree from his sleeve that was entirely green and emitted a soft glow.

This World Tree is the supreme sacred tree in the Western fantasy world. At its peak, it connected the nine realms. I wonder if it would be possible to connect this Demon Realm with this World Tree!

"If it were truly possible to connect this collapsing Demon Realm to the World Tree..."

Xuanbao's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he immediately stopped hesitating.

"Since that's the case, let's give it a try. We don't have any other options anyway!"

Xuanbao took a deep breath and tossed the World Tree into the air. The World Tree hovered in mid-air, its emerald light rippling outwards, enveloping the entire Demon Realm. The spatial rifts that had been collapsing began to slowly heal under the World Tree's light!

"efficient!"

Xuanbao was overjoyed and immediately activated his Primordial Chaos Power, continuously pouring it into the World Tree. With Xuanbao's support, the World Tree shone even brighter, and its roots and tendrils grew wildly, like countless silvery-white tentacles, piercing deep into the ravaged earth of the Demon Realm!

"Buzz—!!!"

The World Tree emitted a deep hum, and the entire tree began to expand rapidly! What was originally a sapling of about three feet tall grew to hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of feet in just a few breaths! Its trunk was as thick as a mountain, its branches and leaves blocked out the sky, and its roots and tendrils, like giant dragons, traversed the earth, firmly grasping the entire Demon Realm!

The collapse of the demon realm has actually stopped!

The expanding spatial rifts began to slowly shrink and heal under the intervention of the World Tree's power. The shattered earth reformed, new springs began to emerge from the dried-up demonic sea, and new buds sprouted from the withered demonic trees. The dark red clouds in the sky were gradually replaced by the World Tree's emerald green light.

Xuanbao stood under the World Tree, looking up at the towering tree, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.

"This is... the power of the World Tree?"

Xuanbao could sense that the World Tree was merging with the laws of the Demon Realm in a profound way. Fragments of the Demon Realm's laws were being absorbed, sorted, and reorganized by the World Tree, ultimately becoming part of the World Tree itself. In turn, the power of the World Tree was nourishing the Demon Realm, repairing its damaged laws, and stabilizing its collapsing space.

The two are forming a perfect symbiotic relationship.

Xuanbao closed his eyes, his divine sense following the roots of the World Tree, penetrating every corner of the Demon Realm. He could clearly "see" that the Demon Realm was recovering its vitality at an astonishing speed—the earth was becoming solid again, the sky was becoming clear again, and wisps of spiritual energy were beginning to appear in the air.

Although it's still far from returning to its peak condition, at least this vast world has been preserved.

"Not bad, not bad."

Xuanbao nodded in satisfaction. He raised his hand, and the World Tree slowly shrank, transforming back into a small tree about three feet tall, landing in his palm. But unlike before, the World Tree now had a faint layer of black lines on its leaves—the imprint of demonic laws.

The World Tree trembled slightly in Xuanbao's palm, and the black patterns on its leaves moved slowly as if they were alive, emitting a strange rhythm that was somewhere between life and destruction.

Furthermore, Xuanbao sensed that the quality of the World Tree had actually improved! This World Tree could actually improve its quality by connecting worlds!

Xuanbao muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming with excitement, "If it could absorb the essence of a few more great worlds, the World Tree might truly be able to transform into a Chaos Spiritual Root!"

A Chaos Spiritual Root is comparable to a Chaos Spiritual Treasure! Moreover, its value surpasses that of Chaos Spiritual Treasures. Otherwise, most of the Chaos Demons and Gods possess Chaos Spiritual Treasures, but none of them have been known to have a Chaos Spiritual Root.

Even Pangu was born from the Chaos Spiritual Root, the Chaos Green Lotus. The value of that goes without saying!

"Unfortunately, the world isn't like a cabbage by the roadside; it's not so easy to find another broken one..."

Why not create your own world?

Now that his cultivation has reached the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal and he has mastered 3000 laws, it is not impossible for him to create a Great Thousand World. However, the consumption involved is too great. After all, even Pangu, who was trying to prove the Great Dao, had to give up. Xuanbao felt that he should not create it himself unless absolutely necessary.

As for his own 36 heavens, they were created by relying on innate spiritual treasures, which is incomparable to creating them in chaos, and the two great worlds are also incomparable.

After all, one can give birth to life, while the other is just a tool.

Before Xuanbao could finish speaking, suddenly—

He was jolted!

That treasure-hunting talent, dormant for countless years, was unexpectedly triggered at this moment!

A mysterious and profound feeling emanated from the depths of chaos, like an invisible thread gently stirring Xuanbao's mind.

"It has the aura of a treasure!"

"How can there be treasure within chaos?"

Xuanbao has always had a hobby of treasure hunting, but the primordial world has basically been plundered long ago.

But who could have imagined that such a treasure could exist in this chaotic world where there is no distinction between superior and inferior?

Xuanbao's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Without the slightest hesitation, he moved swiftly, following the sensation, and sped towards the depths of the chaos!

The chaos was boundless, without direction or distance. But with Xuanbao providing navigation, it was like a beacon, guiding him through the endless fog of chaos. Xuanbao pushed the speed of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal to its limit, his figure transforming into a faint golden streak, weaving and leaping through the chaos.

Suddenly, a huge shadow appeared in the chaos ahead.

That was a world! And a world far more complete and vast than the Demon Realm!

From afar, that world resembled a giant blue gem, suspended in the chaos, radiating a soft yet vast light. The world's barriers were intact and sturdy, its surface flowing with rich spiritual energy, clearly indicating that this was another great world, and unlike the Demon Realm, it did not appear to be on the verge of collapse.

Xuanbao stood amidst the chaos, gazing at the magnificent world before him, which shone like a blue gemstone, his pupils slightly contracting.

"Yet another...vast world!"

Xuanbao took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart. The world before him had a complete and solid barrier, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was so dense that it was almost tangible, flowing endlessly on the surface of the barrier. Its scale and the vastness of its aura, while not comparable to the primordial world, were far stronger than the Demon Realm he had just encountered!

"Interesting...really interesting!"

Xuanbao's lips curled into an excited smile. He moved, transforming into a faint golden light, slowly approaching that world. The closer he got, the more he could sense the world's grandeur—countless profound laws flowed across its barriers, containing the heat of flames, the cold of frost, the fury of thunder, the vitality of life… all these laws intertwined, forming a magnificent and vast tapestry.

Xuanbao floated in the chaos, its gaze sharp as it carefully examined the vast world before it. Its divine sense, like invisible tentacles, cautiously penetrated the barriers of the world, probing every inch of its interior.

In order not to attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao, Xuanbao was particularly careful in his actions. In addition, he already had a Heavenly Dao clone, and his body carried a trace of Heavenly Dao aura, so he did not arouse any suspicion.

……

"The laws are extremely perfect, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is abundant, and living beings are thriving..." Xuanbao muttered to himself, a trace of solemnity flashing in his eyes, "The master of this world is no ordinary person."

Xuanbao could sense that the will of Heaven in this world was extremely active, clearly controlled by a master behind the scenes. Moreover, that master was at least at the third level of the Saint Realm—stronger than himself, if not weaker, of course, without using any trump cards. If the master were to go all out, Xuanbao would show him what it meant to be overwhelmed by sheer power.

……

Of course, since he was already there, Xuanbao naturally wanted to scout things out first. However, barging in rashly might alert the enemy, as the arrival of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal would cause this great world to react. Xuanbao stroked his chin, a sly smile playing on his lips. "But... who said I had to go in in my true form?"

Xuanbao raised his hand and waved, a golden light flew out from his sleeve, transforming into a palm-sized golden talisman. Profound runes flowed across the surface of the talisman, emitting a faint yet pure aura—it was an avatar that Xuanbao had condensed with his Primordial Dao Power. Its cultivation was only at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, but its strength lay in its excellent concealment and its connection with Xuanbao's true body.

"Go." Xuanbao flicked his finger, and the talisman transformed into a stream of light, silently merging into the world barrier.

After the talisman clone entered the world, the main body of the Xuanbao hid in the depths of chaos, concealing its aura, like an ordinary chaotic rock, quietly waiting for the clone's feedback.

……

The talisman clone passed through the world barrier, and a clear view suddenly appeared before it.

This is a vast and boundless continent. The sky is a clear, deep blue, with drifting white clouds and warm, bright sunlight. On the land, mountains rise and fall, rivers crisscross, forests are dense, and grasslands stretch far and wide. In the distance, one can see cities standing tall, with wisps of smoke rising from their chimneys and the sounds of bustling activity filling the air.

"Ahem! Let's just call them people for now."

After all, they can only be described as humanoid, since they come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, with many having six or eight arms.

However, it must be said that it is indeed a scene of prosperity.

Immediately, the clone transformed into an alternate-world version of Squidward and successfully infiltrated the nearest city.

This city, named "Tianyuan City," is a medium-sized city in the eastern part of this world. The city's inhabitants are primarily beastmen, mixed with some demons, spirits, and other alien races, living together harmoniously and maintaining order. The streets are lined with shops selling elixirs, magical artifacts, and spiritual materials, creating a bustling and lively atmosphere.

The clone found a corner in a teahouse, ordered a pot of spiritual tea, and listened intently to the discussions around it.

"Have you heard? Something's happened again in the Demon Abyss!"

"That's right! It's said that a demon at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal broke through the seal and slaughtered three cities! The city lord had to personally intervene to suppress it."

"Sigh... The seal on the Demon Abyss is becoming increasingly unstable. I wonder how much longer it can hold out."

"What's there to be afraid of? With the Divine Emperor here, these mere demons can't cause any trouble!"

"That's right! The Divine Emperor is the most powerful person below the Heavenly Venerable! As long as he's here, our world is as stable as Mount Tai!"

The clone held a teacup, raising an eyebrow almost imperceptibly.

"God Emperor?" He murmured the name to himself, continuing to listen without showing any emotion.

From the casual conversations of the tea drinkers, the clone gradually pieced together the basic structure of this world—

This world is called the "Cangxuan Realm," a vast expanse with four continents in each of the four cardinal directions, and an endless sea at its center. The ruler of the Cangxuan Realm is a being known as the "God Emperor," said to be a direct descendant of the world's creator. His cultivation is unfathomable, but Xuanbao's perception reveals that this God Emperor already possesses the strength of a mid-stage Quasi-Saint.

Below the Divine Emperor are four Divine Generals, all at the early stage of Quasi-Saint level, each guarding one of the four continents: East, South, West, and North. Below them are various feudal lords and city lords, whose cultivation levels range from Great Luo Golden Immortal to Taiyi Golden Immortal.

What interests the clone the most is the "Demon Abyss" mentioned by the tea drinkers.

"The Abyss of Demons... it sounds like something extraordinary." The clone put down his teacup, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

Xuanbao's clone put down his teacup and turned his gaze to the window, looking in the direction of the "Demon Abyss" that the tea drinkers were talking about. He could sense a hidden yet powerful aura emanating from that direction, like a sleeping behemoth lurking deep within the earth. More importantly, that aura had a subtle connection to the source of the treasure energy that Xuanbao's main body sensed.

"interesting."

The clone stood up and vanished from the teahouse in a flash. He transformed into a faint streak of light, skimming the ground as he flew towards the Demon Abyss without alerting anyone.

The Demon Abyss is located at the eastern edge of the Cangxuan Realm, a pitch-black rift valley stretching for millions of miles. The valley is bottomless, and dense demonic energy rises from its depths like mist, staining the surrounding sky a gloomy gray. At the edge of the rift, an elite army is stationed. The soldiers, clad in heavy armor and wielding spears, are at least at the Golden Immortal realm, vigilantly watching for any movement within the rift.

The clone didn't alert the guards, but silently bypassed the defenses and crept down the cliff face of the rift. The deeper it went, the denser the demonic energy became, and the lower the temperature dropped. The cliff face was covered with moss and strange runes, which emitted a faint glow, clearly part of some kind of sealing formation.

After descending approximately ten thousand miles, the clone finally reached the bottom of the rift valley.

At the bottom of the valley was a wide, flat area paved with huge bluestone slabs, covered with densely packed sealing runes. In the center of the flat area stood a black stone monument a hundred feet tall, its surface shimmering with an eerie light and radiating a chilling sense of oppression.

The clone approached the stone tablet and reached out to touch its surface. In an instant, a torrent of information surged into his mind—

"The remains of a demon god are sealed here, never to be released again!"

"Throughout the ages, the divine emperors of the Cangxuan Realm have used their own blood essence to reinforce the seal and maintain peace in the world!"

"Any descendant who trespasses on this land will surely be punished by Heaven!"

The clone withdrew its hand, a knowing glint in its eyes.

"So that's how it is... Could the remains of a chaotic demon god be sealed beneath this abyss?!"
