Primordial Era: I, Wutu, govern the Earthly Dao and suppress the Heavenly Dao.

Book lovers are hotly debating: What exactly happened? Join the discussion!

The great calamity of the ferocious beasts ended, and the Great Dao reappeared, bestowing a powerful merit.

This merit was divided into two, one of which entered the Nine Heavens, making the awakened Heavenly Dao even stronger, and fully capable of managing the primordial world.

Another beam of golden light, however, streaked across the heavens and descended upon the desolate earth below!

Deep in the West.

Rahu, who refined the God-Slaying Spear in the deep valley, had a terrifyingly sinister face.

"The myriad spirits of the primordial world joined forces with us, the Chaos Gods, to annihilate the ferocious beast race. However, the merit of the Great Dao is not divided into ten thousand paths, but only into two!"

"Since one of the two paths has been separated into the Heavenly Path, then the other path must be..."

"The merits of Heaven and Earth! This is the merit bestowed upon the primordial Heaven and Earth by the Great Dao!" Hongjun clenched his fists on the shore of the East Sea, uttering a cry of enlightenment mixed with bitterness.

He understood, he understood completely!

"The Great Dao is supremely impartial, and intends to retire after this great calamity ends. Therefore, the merit bestowed this time is not for us demon gods and all living beings, but is distributed among Heaven and Earth!"

"If Heaven is the Way of Heaven, then what about Earth? What is its purpose?"

Although Hongjun's tone was full of questions, his eyes were filled with bitterness and he subconsciously looked towards Buzhou Mountain!

Yin Yang sat cross-legged in front of the Beast God Palace, his Dao heart no longer calm.

He never again obtained the Beast God Palace, this supreme treasure, nor experienced the joy of single-handedly annihilating billions of ferocious beasts here.

At this moment, his face was extremely pale, even more ferocious and desperate than the expression on the beast's face before he killed it.

"If merit is divided in two, then there will be no merit left for me!"

"Therefore, my understanding of the Yin-Yang Dao—is blocked."

"Countless eons of planning have come to naught! But..."

"The Great Dao bestows the merits of Heaven and Earth. The Heavenly Dao has awakened, which is why it receives these merits. However, the Earthly Dao has not yet awakened, so the only one who can receive these merits is itself!"

"Zhen Yuanzi!!"

The Five Elements Ancestor, who had failed to kill the Beast King, was already suffering greatly in his Dao heart. Now, seeing that the merit was heading towards the Heavenly Pillar, he was even more miserable.

"It's over!"

"All that I have done is in vain. Without attaining the merits of the Great Dao, how can I possibly attain the Great Dao in this primordial world?"

"Mount Buzhou, he's still at Mount Buzhou? What is he doing there?"

Who are the people at Tianzhu and Buzhou Mountain?

There are those beings that have not yet developed intelligence, and those innate energy and innate spiritual roots that have not yet taken form.

However, none of them are sufficient to bear such a vast amount of merit from the Great Dao!

There is only one being who can share in the merits of this Great Dao alongside the Heavenly Dao!

That was the Zhenyuan Ancestor, who led the stabilization of the primordial world by establishing the primordial laws of the underground passage before it had even awakened!

The greatest truths are impartial and selfless.

Because the underground passage was not visible, Zhen Yuanzi led the way to suppress and kill the beast god Shen Ni, as well as countless ferocious beasts. This act was to stabilize the prehistoric world, and he should naturally gain merit!

However, Zhen Yuanzi follows the laws of the earth, and no matter how powerful the Heavenly Dao is, it cannot bestow merit upon him!

Because of this.

The Great Dao, which should have retreated after the end of the Great Tribulation and the awakening of the Heavenly Dao, will reappear!

However, this time the Great Dao bestowed merits unlike any before.

This is the merit of ending the great calamity of ferocious beasts and bringing peace to the primordial world.

While bestowing merit upon the "Earthly Way," because the Great Way is impartial and selfless, it also bestows half of the merit upon the Heavenly Way, which maintains order.

Five quintessences of the Great Dao's merits swept across the primordial sky, and under the watchful eyes of all the primordial beings, suddenly fell into Mount Buzhou!

Then, they all disappeared into Zhen Yuanzi's Dao body in front of the gourd vine!

Having gained fifty percent of the Great Dao's merit, Zhen Yuanzi smiled confidently.

"Has the great merit finally arrived?"

"In that case, my long wait here has not been in vain."

"Then... it's time for you, Tunnel, to awaken!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a vast and profound aura of Wu Earth suddenly surged from Zhen Yuanzi's body!

Within this thick aura of Wu Earth, there was an even greater and more powerful force of laws than before!

These rules are:

Earth, life, cause and effect, creation, space, devouring, time, yin and yang, five elements, chaos, slaughter, disorder, nourishment, evolution, heaven and earth, immortals and demons, etc.!

The reason why Zhen Yuanzi's Earthly Dao could once again bear so many laws is...

Besides his own comprehension, there was also the top-grade innate spiritual root, the gourd vine, right in front of him!

The reason he did not return to the Pangu Temple after suppressing Shenni was...

The purpose is to use this top-grade innate spiritual root gourd vine to comprehend more laws and await the moment when the merit of the Great Dao descends!

The difference between the top-grade innate spiritual root, the gourd vine, and other spiritual roots of the same grade lies in the fact that it contains the power of many laws in the primordial world!

And these laws it possesses,

All of these are derived from the many laws that remained in the chaos of creation, absorbed by the gourd vine from Mount Buzhou, the ancient spine of Pangu!

For example, the Purple Gold Gourd, also known as the famous Purple Gold Red Gourd.

The laws contained within include not only spatial confinement and absorption, but also causal soul locking! (If I call your name, will you dare to answer?)

A single gourd contains the power of three laws!

Crimson gourd: Annihilation of the soul, erasure of the spirit...

Purple-green gourd: the call of life, the binding of all spirits…

Purple-Blue Gourd: The Origin of Chaos, the Evolution of the World…

It can be said that each of these gourds contains the power of multiple pure laws!

And this is only the power of the laws that the gourd vine absorbed from the original Pangu spine, without adding the power of the laws that remained after the great battle under Buzhou Mountain!

The Battle of Buzhou Mountain completely changed the original site of the decisive battle against the ferocious beasts.

Whether it was the three races, the three great beast kings, or the Chaos Demon God and the Divine Rebellion, they all fought here for dozens or even nearly a hundred eons!

During the great battle, the residual laws from their fight were even greater than what the gourd vine had originally absorbed and contained!

After being absorbed and contained for dozens of eons, this gourd vine, though still a top-grade innate spiritual root, is much larger and more substantial than before!

Even though it is far from mature, its power of law is very weak.

But for Zhen Yuanzi, it was enough to allow his laws to advance further, enabling him to grasp many laws that he had not yet comprehended!

Using the gourd vine as a guide, he incorporated numerous laws into his own Wutu Dao in just a few dozen Yuanhui (a unit of time).

Having only just begun to grasp the basics of the laws, the Great Dao merit that Zhen Yuanzi had been waiting for now has entered his body and blessed him, instantly making the path of the Earth element he carries clear!

However, in less than a short period of time...

Many principles have progressed from the beginner level to the advanced level, and have now reached the advanced level!

The Great Dao of Earth carries so many great laws, and as it progresses smoothly, it reaches a state of near perfection after achieving great success!

The Great Dao of Earth is nearly perfected, making the Earth Qi emanating from Zhen Yuanzi extremely profound and vast!

At this moment, it spread throughout the entire primordial world, from the highest heavens to the deepest hells, and every living thing felt it!

This aura startled all living beings, even the Chaos God.

Because they could already sense this profound aura, which contained immeasurable laws!
