At this moment, Pangu had completely comprehended all 129,600 Laws of Power, but he was also exhausted.
Even the Pangu Axe had cracks, and the jade tablet of creation was on the verge of shattering.
In the endless Chaos, the Eye of the Grand Dao appeared, gazing at Pangu.
"I have one axe, which can open heaven and earth!" Pangu roared and surged upward, striking out with his axe.
The entire Chaos World seemed to have been split open, and Li Xinghe was shocked; he seemed to see the world outside the Chaos.
"Dig, dig, dig in the world outside Chaos, whatever treasures I dig up, I'll bring them all home."
Li Xinghe frantically urged the chaos shovel, digging a few times at the mysterious Void Realm, and finally dug up two mysterious streams of Qi.
The next second, the Chaos gap closed, and Grand Dao Divine Thunder descended from the sky, almost shattering the Pangu Axe, and he himself nearly died under the Grand Dao Divine Thunder.
"Indeed, the Three Thousand Demon Gods exhausted Big Brother's power, and the Grand Dao's punishment has arrived." Li Xinghe sighed.
Pangu seemed to sense it; a Breakthrough into Chaos was now impossible, so he could only follow his second brother's method and reopen a realm.
Thinking of this, he no longer resisted the Grand Dao but directly opened up a new world within the Chaos.
Endless earth, fire, wind, and water surged, Chaos Qi receded, and the outline of a world appeared.
Clear Qi ascended to form the sky, and turbid Qi descended to form the earth; this was the Honghuang World.
"It's too desolate!" Pangu waved his hand, sending all the flesh and blood of the Demon Gods who had fallen in the Chaos into it.
"It's still not enough!" Unable to withstand the pressure of opening the heavens, the thirty-six-grade chaos green lotus under his feet disintegrated and fell into the Honghuang World.
However, there was no support between heaven and earth, and it seemed to be merging. Pangu struck out with another axe, and finally, the Pangu Axe and the jade tablet of creation also could not withstand the pressure of opening the heavens, turning into fragments and disappearing between heaven and earth.
"Still not enough!" Pangu stepped out, his feet on the earth, his hands supporting the sky, and his Demon God Physical Body grew wildly, propping open heaven and earth.
And he finally exhausted his last shred of power and completely perished.
Afterward, his spine transformed into Mount Buzhou, supporting heaven and earth;
His left eye transformed into the sun, and his right eye transformed into the moon;
His blood transformed into rivers, nourishing the earth;
His muscles transformed into soil, and his hair transformed into plants.
In the depths of Mount Buzhou, Pangu's heart transformed into the Pangu Shrine, and the last twelve drops of essence blood were nurtured within it.
And his Primordial Spirit transformed into three clear Qi, disappearing between heaven and earth.
At this moment, in the Chaos World, Li Xinghe looked at the Honghuang World before him with endless emotion; the Three Thousand Demon Gods had thus become fertilizer for the Honghuang World.
However, he knew that many top Demon Gods had not truly perished; what was killed was merely their Physical Body, and part of their true spirit had escaped into the Honghuang World.
Soon, these Demon Gods would Reincarnation into the Honghuang World, taking human form with the help of their original flesh and blood.
However, some might forget their previous identity because there was not much true spirit remaining.
This was good too, lest they all revive and come to settle scores with him.
The only thing worth celebrating was that the old geezer Chaos had completely Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering; without the protection of the chaos pearl, he was just a small fry under the Pangu Axe.
As for Hongjun and Luohu, possessing great Luck, they probably wouldn't perish so easily.
Regardless, he should first find a Daoist temple. After some consideration, he finally chose the only shrine Pangu left in the world as his Daoist temple.
Only this place in the entire Honghuang World was left by Pangu himself, and in the future, the Twelve Ancestral Witches would also take human form here.
This was also the key to reviving Pangu in the future. In later generations, during the Witch and Demon Tribulation, the Twelve Ancestral Witches originally summoned Pangu's body, a situation that should have been a sure win, but was ultimately interfered with by Hongjun, leading to the complete decline of both the Witch and Demon races.
Hongjun used such methods to constantly influence everything in the Honghuang World, slowly making Pangu's traces disappear.
And at this moment, with heaven and earth initially settled, the Grand Dao appeared, finally bestowing the Merit of Opening the Heavens.
Among them, the Three Pure Ones, as Pangu's Primordial Spirit, exclusively received 30% of the Merit of Opening the Heavens, while the Witch Clan, formed from Pangu's essence blood, received 10% of the Merit of Opening the Heavens.
Of the remaining 60%, 10% condensed with the Profound Yellow Qi formed during the opening of the heavens into the Acquired Merit Supreme Treasure, the Heaven and Earth Linglong Profound Yellow Pagoda.
Another 10% transformed into the Acquired Merit Supreme Treasure, the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, which allowed killing without incurring Karma, making it a killing Supreme Treasure second only to the Pangu Banner.
Another 20% belonged to the Primordial World, benefiting all things in heaven and earth.
The last 20% fell upon Li Xinghe; everything was as he had expected. He had convinced Pangu that he had contributed to the opening of the heavens, and thus he had a share of the Merit of Opening the Heavens.
"The Three Pure Ones only got 30%, and I alone got 20%; the advantage is with me." Li Xinghe thought smugly.
Moreover, there was a reason why he chose the Pangu Shrine as his Daoist temple, because the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler was born within the Pangu Shrine.
As for the other Heaven and Earth Linglong Profound Yellow Pagoda, it probably hadn't appeared yet; according to the original trajectory, it should eventually fall into Taiqing Laozi's hands.
If he added the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, it meant he alone possessed 30% of the Merit of Opening the Heavens; one must know that the entire Primordial World only received 20%.
Most importantly, the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, which allowed killing without incurring Karma, was the ability he valued most.
He still remembered when he used to read Primordial World novels, what he found most annoying were those things like Karma and Karma; killing someone still required nagging, fearing Karma entanglement.
And most importantly, as an Acquired Merit Supreme Treasure, it could be used directly without refinement.
Otherwise, with the chaos shovel, chaos pearl, and Old Ancestor Qiankun's Qiankun Cauldron, he didn't know how long it would take to refine them to unleash some power.
Fortunately, he now had 20% of the Merit of Opening the Heavens, which would last him a long time.
According to his estimates, by the time this Merit was consumed, his treasures should be mostly refined, and his strength would greatly increase.
According to the Primordial World's setting, Immortals are divided into Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Golden Immortal, Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
After that came Quasi-Saints, and finally Saints.
The cultivation Ranks in Chaos were similar in the beginning, the difference being that after Grand Unity Golden Immortal, they were called Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal (Quasi-Saint), and then Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal (Saint).
For example, those Demon Gods among the Three Thousand Demon Gods were all at the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal Rank, and a small number of top existences above them were even Hunyuan Grand Ultimate Grand Unity Golden Immortal (Heavenly Dao Realm), while Pangu was an even more powerful Hunyuan Limitless Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
However, Li Xinghe was not in a hurry to absorb those Merit of Opening the Heavens now. The Primordial World was just established, there were no living beings yet, and treasures were everywhere.
Even if living beings were born, they would all be weaklings. He, a dignified Grand Unity Golden Immortal, wielding multiple Chaos Supreme Treasures, could be said to be invincible in the world.
Before that, he wanted to walk around the Honghuang World; perhaps he could obtain some Opportunity.
After all, in his memory, there were quite a few Heaven-Defying treasures in the Honghuang World.
Especially the great unfortunate chaos green lotus, apart from the three Innate Supreme Treasures transformed from the Pangu Axe, all the renowned treasures in the Honghuang World were transformed from the chaos green lotus.
For example, the God-Slaying Spear,
The Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus,
The twelve-grade karma fire red lotus,
The Twelve Grade Purified White Lotus,
The twelve grade world-destroying black lotus,
And the weapons of the Three Pure Ones were all transformed from the lotus flowers, lotus roots, and lotus leaves of the chaos green lotus.
Some treasures might not be ready to appear yet, but who was Li Xinghe? He possessed the two great Laws of Time and Destiny, and even had Chaos Supreme Treasures that came with Luck. He was sure to dig up treasures with a casual dig.
Thinking of this, he stepped out of Mount Buzhou, then used the power of time and destiny to deduce, and flew in a chosen direction.
