Chapter 13: The First Person to Reach the Top is Blessed with Good Fortune
The Goddess of Longevity stands atop Mount Buzhou, her form like an ancient boulder, subtly resonating with the aura of this pillar supporting the heavens.
He carefully experienced the unparalleled sense of power brought about by the perfect fusion of the surging and boundless new magical power within his body, which was just entering the Great Luo realm, and his already powerful physical body, which had reached the middle stage of the Great Luo realm.
An unprecedented sense of power, completeness, and freedom arose spontaneously, as if one were a part of this world, and every move could trigger the laws of nature.
However, what shook him even more and made him realize something was a kind of premonition—a vast and boundless yet gentle aura of fortune, carrying supreme majesty and benevolence.
Like the Milky Way descending from the heavens, or like the rising energy of Mother Earth, it quietly bestows itself upon him, becoming closely intertwined with his own foundation of Dao and destiny.
This fortune is neither the ordinary golden light of merit, nor the condensed, liquefied spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Rather, it is a more ancient, more fundamental blessing from heaven and earth, carrying the meaning of creation and selfless nurturing.
It is formless and intangible, yet it truly exists, subtly merging into the auspicious clouds of fortune that he has not yet manifested outwardly but has already condensed.
It not only greatly solidified and expanded his spiritual foundation, but also significantly enhanced his fortune and destiny.
It can even help him avoid some calamities on his future path of cultivation, and add countless opportunities and possibilities. Its significance is profound and immeasurable.
The Supreme Lord of Longevity, her mind racing, combined her previous understanding of Pangu's will with her own inherited memories, and immediately realized:
This is the hazy consciousness of the Great God Pangu remaining on Mount Buzhou, and the primordial laws of the Great Dao permeating this newly opened primordial world.
This is a recognition and reward for the first "primordial native creature" to successfully climb Mount Buzhou by relying solely on its own pure strength, unwavering will, and the natural order of things!
This is a blessing of the highest level, coming from God the Father and from heaven and earth themselves!
He recalled the inherited memories and his understanding of his original self. After the creation of heaven and earth, not all chaotic demons perished.
Indeed, some powerful demon gods' remains or remnants escaped the final slaying of Pangu's axe and infiltrated this newly born primordial world to lie dormant.
After countless eons of slow recuperation and recovery, some of the exceptionally powerful or extremely lucky individuals may have already recovered part of their cultivation and strength, reaching the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm or even a more profound and unfathomable realm.
They hid in the hidden corners of the primordial world, either forming their own grottoes or blending into the mountains and rivers, secretly spying on this newborn world.
However, Mount Buzhou was formed from the spine of Pangu, and is his most direct and immortal symbol in the primordial world.
For these chaotic demons who were slain by Pangu in the first battle of creation, almost completely destroyed, and barely clinging to life, this was a different story.
This place contains their deepest fears and fiercest hatreds, but it is also the indelible, boundless awe of Pangu's divine power in creating the world, which is deep within their souls.
The terror that originated from the very source of their souls, the crushing feeling that was etched into the depths of their true spirits, made them dare not approach the vicinity of Mount Buzhou, let alone muster the courage to climb the mountain.
Even if they poured all the water in the world into their hatred for Pangu, it would be difficult to wash it away. But the remnants of Pangu's will were so strong that it was almost as if Pangu himself was there.
If they dare to show themselves, it will likely trigger a destructive counterattack from the remnants of Pangu's will, with unimaginable consequences; complete annihilation of body and soul will be the only outcome.
Therefore, this supreme glory of being the first to ascend Mount Buzhou after the creation of the world, along with the immense opportunities that followed, was a great honor.
By a twist of fate, or perhaps it was a predetermined destiny or will of the primordial world, that ultimately fell upon him—the Primordial Lord of Longevity, a being born from and raised here, whose form was transformed from an innate spiritual root and whose origins were pure and innocent.
Feeling the immense and profound blessing of good fortune surrounding her, which brought endless benefits, Wanshou Yuanjun's heart was filled with a peaceful and deep joy.
The gains from this summit have far exceeded initial expectations.
But he did not become complacent because of this, nor did he leave immediately.
He knew that this mountain peak area was extremely mysterious, being the place where the will of Pangu and the traces of the beginning of heaven and earth were most concentrated, and perhaps it also hid other undiscovered and even more amazing opportunities.
He calmed himself down, discarding the restlessness brought on by his recent breakthrough. His eyes shone with a blue light, as if they contained two vast blue skies.
With the aid of his newly broken-through-to-the-Great Luo realm, which made his divine sense more than ten times sharper, he began to carefully, inch by inch, explore this seemingly flat and empty mountaintop platform that was actually naturally imbued with Daoist charm.
His divine sense was like the finest comb, gently brushing over every seemingly ordinary rock, sensing any abnormal energy fluctuations or spatial folds that might be contained within.
At the same time, he was also silently circulating the "Yi Mu True Scripture," trying his best to match his own aura with the remaining Pangu will and the pulse of the earth beneath his feet, in order to more keenly perceive the deeper connection and mystery with this place.
Time flowed slowly through this strange space, as if it had lost its meaning.
Just as his divine sense swept across a seemingly ordinary, even lower, smoother, and inconspicuous bluish-black boulder in the center of the mountain peak like ripples on water, his heart suddenly skipped a beat!
Deep within the connection between the boulder and the mountain below, an indescribable, extremely restrained yet powerful resonance that made his very bloodline and primordial spirit tremble and rejoice faintly emanated!
It is a life-giving aura that originates from the same great ancestor, yet is supreme and incomparably pure!
The Lord of Longevity's expression hardened. He immediately suppressed all distracting thoughts, concentrated all his energy, and carefully condensed his divine sense into a thread thinner than a hair yet incredibly strong, slowly probing into the core depths from which the strange sensation emanated.
This process requires immense patience and precise control to avoid any unnecessary fluctuations.
The threads of divine sense penetrated the layers of indestructible Buzhou Mountain rocks, which greatly blocked the detection of divine sense, and crossed the invisible barriers formed by the remnants of Pangu's will. Finally, the view opened up in his divine sense "vision"!
It wasn't some enormous blessed land, but rather a hole, no bigger than a fist, with smooth, mirror-like inner walls, naturally formed at the very core of that giant rock by the pressure of the earth's veins over countless years and the nourishment of Pangu's will.
Inside the hole, there was no dazzling divine light, no overwhelming aura, only three drops of liquid, the size of pigeon eggs and resembling the most perfect and flawless blue jade beads, quietly suspended within, slowly and on their own following some mysterious trajectory.
Each of their slow rotations seems to be enacting the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, and at a microscopic level, they are evolving the scene of the earth, fire, wind, and water stabilizing and the separation of purity and turbidity.
Upon closer inspection, it was clear that this was no ordinary liquid, but rather the essence of the Great Dao, concentrated to its extreme and already materialized!
Inside, tiny points of light, like chaotic nebulae, flicker and fade, as if containing countless undeveloped microcosms. Moreover, a vast, magnificent, indomitable, and world-creating supreme will lies hidden within, silently guarding it!
