Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

And so it went. After forty-nine days of being enveloped by profound energy, the Primordial Profound Stone, which had been completely unresponsive, began to show signs of awakening once more.

However, this sign was not enough to truly unseal it. It wasn't until the two people's profound energy continuously impacted the eighty-one-day-old stone that the previously lusterless stone burst open, its five-colored golden light almost blinding the two of them.

After a crisp sound, the dark stone had become crystal clear, shimmering with iridescent colors, and exceptionally beautiful.

The two gods, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tianmo Xuansheng, finally used its profound power to begin using the Hunyuan Xuan Stone.

"Fellow Daoist, we have succeeded!" said the Divine Venerable Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Yes, let's quickly recover our profound energy so we can witness its splendor." The Heavenly Demon Sage was thinking of waiting until the two of them recovered their profound energy before investigating further.

Unexpectedly, the Primordial Mystic Stone seemed to understand their conversation, and spiritually regarded the two as its saviors and the people who had been unsealed and awakened.

Therefore, in the next second, without saying a word, Hunyuan Xuanshi threw out a stream of seven-colored Xuan power. The two gods, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tianmo Xuansheng, immediately understood Xuanshi's intention.

Without further hesitation, he completely relaxed and immediately absorbed the feedback from the mystic stone to replenish what he had consumed over the past eighty-one days.

After a short while, when he felt his body full of energy, the Divine Lord Yuanshi Tianzun said, "This is indeed a rare treasure above all innate treasures. Its effect is truly beyond expectations."

The Heavenly Demon Sage greedily savored the seven-colored profound energy: "Yes, this profound energy is profound and wondrous. I don't think it will be long before the two of us recover our cultivation. When that time comes, we must take a good look at what other wonders this profound stone has!"

"Fellow Daoist is absolutely right. Let's hurry, let's hurry!" The excited Divine Venerable Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't wait to use all the wonders of his Xuan Stone.

Chapter 965 The Origin of the World

The Primordial Stone silently released its profound and powerful Xuan energy between the two. After recognizing its master, the Xuan stone was almost completely devoted to the two, repaying them as if it possessed a spirit.

The Xuan energy consumed over the past eighty-one days was unexpectedly recovered in less than a day. Moreover, it was observed that the Xuan stone had almost no consumption, or that its consumption rate was negligible compared to its replenishment rate.

It is still dazzlingly colorful, as if the profound energy supplied to the two of them earlier was nothing to it.

For cultivators, the profound energy is the key to releasing their own power or using their magic and martial arts techniques. If they lack this profound energy, or if their profound energy is insufficient, or if they don't have enough of it, then this is their weakness.

This Primordial Mystic Stone can provide a continuous stream of profound energy, and the density of this energy is so powerful that it is unimaginable. Therefore, it truly deserves to be called a supreme treasure.

The two deities, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tianmo Xuansheng, slowly withdrew their hands, opened their tightly closed eyes, and felt an unprecedented sense of comfort and excitement.

They took the Hunyuan Xuan Stone with them and left the area of ​​the black hole, arriving at a fairyland where birds sang, flowers bloomed, grasses grew, the wind was gentle, and the sun shone brightly. They took out the Hunyuan Xuan Stone, which they had been carefully preserving, and began to delve into the wonders of the Cangwu Xuan Stone.

The exploration above the Heavenly Dao is still the same. The Heavenly Demon Sage looked at the Primordial Profound Stone in his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist, you said that this stone witnessed the existence of the Great God Pangu in creating the world, but why don't I feel its power?"

The Celestial Venerable Yuanshi stared at the unresponsive stone, racking his brains but still unable to figure out how to activate its profound power.

And so, time gradually passed as the Divine Lord Yuanshi Tianzun and the Heavenly Demon Xuansheng meditated.

For creatures like them who have lived for tens of thousands of years, time is something that flies by. The world here is constantly changing, with the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, repeating itself again and again, and the tides rising and falling repeatedly.

Eighty-one years have passed. Fortunately, the scenes here are very spiritual. Otherwise, if Long Xiangtian, who couldn't contain himself, had been watching here for eighty-one years, even if he invited the Heavenly King himself, there would be no way to stop him.

The Heavenly Demon Saint was the first to open his eyes and re-experience the existence of this world.

A bird perched on the Heavenly Demon Sage's shoulder sensed the sudden movement of the spot where it was standing. Startled, like a frightened bird, it flew away.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Demon Sage smiled compassionately, as if he had already figured out a way to activate the Primordial Mystic Stone.

Following closely behind, the Divine Lord Yuanshi Tianzun also sensed his fellow Daoist's awakening and opened his eyes as well.

The Heavenly Demon Sage said, "Fellow Daoist, you're awake. You missed a beautiful moment."

The Divine Lord Yuanshi Tianzun said, "What? Have you already figured out a way to activate this Heavenly Demon Mystic Stone?"

"No, but I felt the beauty of this world and the wonder of life." The Heavenly Demon Sage looked into the distance, feeling refreshed and relaxed.

The Heavenly Demon Sage slowly opened his mouth again and said, "This world is full of vitality, don't you think it's wonderful? How about we create a world here?"

The Celestial Lord of Primordial Beginning was truly puzzled as to what was wrong with his fellow Daoist. The things he was saying were simply incomprehensible to him.

If Li Xiuyuan were here right now, he would definitely understand this deeply.

The Heavenly Demon Sage's words implied that he wanted to use his profound power to create a world here, the very place where Long Xiangtian and Li Xiuyuan currently exist.

This is what Li Xiuyuan has been striving for: after mastering the laws of time and space, he needs to do something to create a world of his own.

In the depths of his mind, Li Xiuyuan sensed that one reason his cultivation was progressing so slowly was that while he had a certain understanding of the laws of time, he lacked understanding of the laws of space.

There must be some necessary connection between these two, so it's really not good to specialize in one subject. The laws of space must open the heavy door of the Great Dao.

Long Xiangtian saw that the Heavenly Demon Profound Saint, relying on his profound profound power, began to establish the Three Realms.

However, what surprised them even more was that the two gods, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tianmo Xuansheng, accidentally discovered that they could comprehend the laws and principles contained in the divine stone from this Hunyuan Xuan Stone.

Initially, it was the Heavenly Demon Sage who wanted to create a new world by relying on his own laws of time. He wanted to combine the laws of space of the God Venerable Yuanshi Tianzun, so that the fusion of these two great elements could be successful.

However, one's own profound energy is ultimately limited, making it difficult to complete such a large-scale operation in one step.

The Heavenly Demon Sage recalled that when he and the Divine Venerable Yuanshi Tianzun were near the black hole, they had exhausted all their profound energy in order to retrieve the Primordial Profound Stone.

However, in just a short time, the Primordial Profound Stone was able to release Qi Profound Power to nourish the two of them. Therefore, the Heavenly Demon Profound Saint believed that as long as he and the Divine Venerable Primordial Heavenly Venerable worked together with the help of the Primordial Profound Stone, they could accomplish this great undertaking and create a new world.

The profound energy surged forth continuously, like flowing water constantly constructing this world. Gradually, the place began to brighten, filled with vitality, the laws of sound, the realm of gods, and even the realm of demons and the human world.

This balance of the three realms has been maintained according to the ideas of both the Heavenly Demon Sage and the Divine Lord Primordial Heavenly Lord.

Heavenly Demon Sage: "It's finally done. This was really difficult."

The Celestial Lord of the Primordial Beginning wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Yes, brother, why did you suddenly think of doing such a thing? I still don't understand."

Chapter 966 Reaching Cooperation

"I don't understand, but you still helped me. If it were just my time law, it definitely wouldn't be enough," the Heavenly Demon Saint said, panting.

The Divine Lord Yuanshi Tianzun said, "That's because the two of us are traveling through the universe together, so of course we have to do everything together. Do you think I'm just going to watch you work while I watch the show from the sidelines?"

Upon hearing this, the two burst into laughter. Looking at the now perfect world, they felt an indescribable feeling, a feeling that was like a combination of words such as freedom, vastness, power, and strength.

This is the goal that Li Xiuyuan wants to achieve at this moment, but the only difference is that this guy wants to accomplish such a great thing by relying on his own strength.

It's less about being great and more about wanting to experience that feeling, that feeling of having absolute power, of no longer being under someone else's feet.

The reason why the laws of time and space resonate with each other, complement each other, and promote each other's progress is that Li Xiuyuan has always believed that the two are separate entities. Therefore, even after spending a lot of time, he still cannot understand the mystery behind them.

Inside the Pangu Palace, Li Xiuyuan had his eyes tightly closed, just like Long Xiangtian, trying to recall everything he had seen and heard in the ancient ruins.

The ruins that made him abandon such important things as the laws of time and space to come to the human world, the creation of the world by the great god Pangu, as long as he can comprehend even a little bit of it, will be a great help to his cultivation.

This is why what Li Xiuyuan saw here was not the same scene as what Long Xiangtian saw, because what they differed from each other was what they needed most at the moment.

Although the Heavenly Demon Sage and the Divine Venerable Primordial Heavenly Venerable are still far stronger than Li Xiuyuan, it would be incredibly heaven-defying if Li Xiuyuan were to complete the cultivation of the laws of time and space in this way. With just a glance, it would be easy for Li Xiuyuan to break through with his strength.

Having withdrawn his thoughts from the illusion, Long Xiangtian now saw that Yang Jian and the others were gradually recovering their power. At this moment, within the Long Mansion, the forces from all four sides were still mutually restraining each other.

Yang Jian and Xiaotianquan are naturally without any problems; they would never betray each other, even if it meant death.

Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng in the Demonic Sect were naturally like brothers, supporting each other.

However, just as Long Xiangtian was controlling his relic, Zhu Bajie seemed to remember something important. He stopped focusing on restoring his own power and even stopped helping Sha Wujing recover from his injuries.

He said, "Junior Brother Sha, wait for me a moment, Second Senior Brother will be back soon."

At this moment, Sha Wujing unconditionally trusted his second brother. Seeing how nervous the other brother looked, he knew that the other brother must have his reasons, otherwise he would be acting this way.

Pigsy approached Long Xiangtian, who had just opened his eyes, and said, "Hey kid. You know I mean no harm. Let's be honest with each other, okay?"

Although Long Xiangtian knew that Elder Pig had no intention of harming him, he was still somewhat uneasy because Elder Pig had broken into his Long family.

However, if the two can overcome their mutual misunderstandings, they can still cooperate.

At this point, as long as Long Xiangtian, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing cooperate, they will be invincible.

The reason it's not a position of invincibility, but rather a position of victory, is because of their opponents. These are the Demonic Sect and the Heavenly Court. Although there's no explicit cooperative relationship between them, they have cooperated before, so it's possible they might cooperate again for the sake of the situation.

In order to prevent such a thing from happening and having too much impact on the changing situation, Pigsy thought of the guy who could help him at this time, namely the young master of the Dragon family, Long Xiangtian!

Pigsy whispered, "Kid, I know you have a golden bead inside you, don't you?"

Long Xiangtian saw that the other party had seen through his secret in one sentence, but considering that this was his behavior, which was done secretly and with good intentions, and that this Pigsy had not harmed him, he put aside his grudges and said, "Yes, so what? No, so what?"

Knowing that he hadn't completely convinced the other party, Pigsy said, "To be honest, my fellow disciple and I each have 70% of our power left, while I have 90%. If you don't mind, we can cooperate. If you think I'm the kind of person who can't be trusted, then forget it, pretend I didn't say anything."

Pigsy knew the other person was a genuine person, so he stopped using his usual tricks and beat around the bush. This guy was smarter than anyone else!

Long Xiangtian naturally understood what the other party meant. In the current situation, the other party was targeting him, and there was no possibility of him cooperating with one of them or both of them.

Even if the other party were willing, Long Xiangtian would not allow himself to cooperate with wolves and tigers like this, as it would only send him, a weakling, into their jaws.

He didn't want to be a cute little lamb, just someone else's lunch.

Long Xiangtian immediately chuckled and said to Zhu Bajie, "What nonsense are you spouting, Elder Zhu? I know you well enough to know you. You are a kind and compassionate Buddhist. Look, I am a Buddhist too."

Looking at Long Xiangtian's beaming face, Pigsy naturally understood what the guy was thinking. So he had to take advantage of the moment when the other party was relaxed to reach an agreement. Therefore, he said, "Then I'll be frustrating for you, old Pig. Actually, I've never been able to remember the bead inside your body, but now I know, that's a relic!"

Chapter 967 The Smiling Pig Brother

Long Xiangtian was startled: "How does this guy know that the relic inside his body is a relic?"

Looking into Zhu Bajie's eyes, he couldn't help but become wary. This matter was known only to him and Li Xiuyuan. Even that so-called Howling Celestial Dog seemed unaware of the details.

Seeing Long Xiangtian's posture, Pigsy seemed to have already guessed that this guy would have such an expression, and laughed loudly: "Brother, you don't need to be so nervous, I'm not a bad guy." He looked extremely lewd.

Long Xiangtian couldn't bear to look at the pig-headed man's shifty eyes and thought, "Who knows if you have any good intentions? You just don't look like a nice guy."

"Oh ho ho, look at what you're saying. Although I'm a pig brother, I'm still quite clever. There are too many secrets about you, which makes me very suspicious." Pigsy stared at Long Xiangtian without blinking.

"Mi Mi? What Mi Mi?" He pretended not to understand.

Long Xiangtian thought to himself, "Could it be that this guy knows I witnessed the duel between two Heavenly Dao experts, or is he eyeing my relic?"

“Brother, don’t hide it from me anymore. I know your unspeakable difficulties, but I’m really not a bad person. I know the reason for your relics. It’s because I know that you have the bloodline of our Buddhist sect in you, that’s all.” Pigsy said confidently, as if he had figured everything out.
