Chapter 1113: 792 Duotian Shenfan and Pangu Banner_2

In order to craft his own Innate Treasure, the Saint of Taiqing had once borrowed the Tai Chi Diagram and Pangu Banner from his two elder brothers, often holding them in his hands for contemplation. Therefore, he would never mistake the Duotian Shenfan, created by the Twelve Ancestral Witches, for anything else, as it looked exactly like the Pangu Banner.

No, not only did it look alike, but the abilities it possessed were also identical.

The Pangu Banner, formed from the blade of the Pangu Axe, possessed the might to tear apart Chaos, the power to shatter the force of space-time, the function of dominating all laws, and the capability to pioneer sky and earth.

It was known as the bane of all defensive magic treasures and also had the ability to control the imposing force of Heaven and Earth. Its offensive power was deemed the first under the Heavenly Dao, with might even surpassing the Slaying God Spear.

The Duotian Shenfan crafted by the Twelve Ancestral Witches was simply a copy of the Pangu Banner! The capabilities, appearance, everything was identical, even the power was not much different. Otherwise, how could the Witch Clan withstand the other Heaven-Opening Innate Treasure, the Chaos Bell?

This matter aroused intense curiosity in the Upper Qing Saint. He could not understand how the Twelve Ancestral Witches could have crafted the Pangu Banner, an Innate Treasure of opening the heavens.

Thus, to unravel this mystery and settle the doubts in his heart, the Upper Qing Saint, disregarding his dignity, secretly hid in the shadows, silently peeping—no, observing and studying the Witch Clan.

And after long years of investigation and research, the Upper Qing Saint finally uncovered the truth.

That is, according to Pangu Great God’s original intention, the Pangu Banner, a treasure of supreme importance, was meant to be left to the Witch Clan, to stabilize the Witch Clan’s fate.

If the Demon Clan even had the Heaven-Opening Innate Treasure, the Chaos Bell, then as descendants of the Pangu Great God, the Witch Clan should not be inferior to them. Thus, the Pangu Banner was left for the Witch Clan.

Moreover, the Pangu Banner’s attributes matched those of the Witch Clan perfectly.

Wreathed in the aura of Duotian divine annihilation, within the Prehistoric World, only the Witch Clan was capable of commanding this potent energy. Thus, for the Witch Clan, the Pangu Banner was indeed their ordained providence.

As for the other Heaven-Opening Innate Treasure, the Tai Chi Diagram, it was left by the Pangu Great God to the Sanqing. According to what the Pangu Great God intended, if his bloodline could spawn a clan, then surely fragments of his True Spirit should be able to produce another.

The Tai Chi has the ability to evolve all things. If one were to operate with fragments of his True Spirit, living beings could be created out of thin air, even without parents. One could say, as long as the Innate pure Qi does not cease, with the power of Pangu’s True Spirit, the Tai Chi Diagram could continuously create an Innate race.

Pangu Great God had arranged everything beautifully—the star gods governed the Boundless Starry Sky, the Witch Clan controlled the netherworld, and the Sanqing presided over the center, balancing these two great forces.

In this way, the three clans stood together, jointly performing the drama of the Prehistoric World.

Regrettably, though Pangu Great God’s plan was sound, he perished after opening the heavens, resulting in his plans being unexecuted, leading to frequent accidents and a complete deviation from the original plan.

Later, when Pangu Great God awakened and saw how far the plan had gone astray, he did not intervene to steer it back on course, but allowed the situation to continue evolving.

Pangu Great God created the Prehistoric World to enact the Dao, using the transformative power of Heaven and Earth to glean a glimpse into the realm of Eternity of the Supreme Tao.

Since it was for enacting the Dao, adhering to a script would be meaningless. Instead, the unknown was more interesting and might bring different surprises.

Anyway, if he failed, Pangu Great God wouldn’t lose anything. At worst, he would just start over again.

No one knows which attempt at opening the heavens and pioneering the earth this was for Pangu Great God, creating the Prehistoric World. Maybe it was the first time, or perhaps it was one of many...

...

...

After learning of Pangu Great God’s plans, the Upper Qing Saint also understood why the Twelve Ancestral Witches could craft the heaven-opening Innate Treasure, the Pangu Banner. Because the Dao Rhyme of the Pangu Banner was inherently branded within the essence of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, part of their innate inheritance.

Once activated, they could naturally craft the Pangu Banner using the power of the Dao Rhyme.

Similarly, the mark of the Chaos Bell was also imprinted by Pangu Great God within the essence of the Cycle star gods.

If all the Cycle star gods, or rather the Cycle stars, were gathered, then even if the Demon Clan did not possess the Chaos Bell, they could still craft a Chaos Bell by utilizing the power of the Cycle stars.

For the Sanqing, it was similarly so. The supreme Dao rhythm of the Tai Chi Diagram, an Innate Treasure of the pioneer sky, was branded into the very essence of the Sanqing by Pangu Great God. By combining the power of the three, they could also refine a Tai Chi Diagram.

This was Pangu Great God’s gift to them.

Regrettably, the first to discover this were the Witch Clan, who were regarded by others as ignorant of the Heavenly Dao. Even more ironically, the Sanqing, renowned for their proximity to the Tao, would not have uncovered this if not for the clues gleaned from the Witch Clan.

Had the Demon Clan not yet been established, or rather, had the Sanqing not yet received the Innate Treasure, the Upper Qing Saint would have been exceedingly surprised to uncover this secret.

However, he discovered the secret only after becoming a saint, and by then it was too late. Even if he knew that the Sanqing could refine a Tai Chi Diagram, and that the stars of the Cycle could refine a Chaos Bell, what use would it be?

The Saint of Taiqing, already in possession of the Tai Chi Diagram, would not agree to let the Upper Qing Saint to refine another one. Similarly, all the stars of the Cycle had fallen under the control of the Demon Clan, so even if the Upper Qing Saint wished to refine a Chaos Bell, he would be powerless to do so.

It was this discovery that left the Upper Qing Saint utterly disheartened, causing him to abandon his plans to refine an Innate Treasure. To glimpse hope only to be plunged into despair was a blow not even a saint could easily endure.

However, after giving up, for reasons unknown, the Upper Qing Saint left this matter in his legacy, which is how Jiang Chen came to know of it.

Otherwise, how could Jiang Chen, with his current strength, have access to such secrets regarding Pangu Great God?

"Comparable to the Pangu Banner, the Duotian Shenfan can be said to be a super killing weapon of unimaginable power."

Jiang Chen had personally witnessed the power of the Pangu Banner. While he was cultivating the Way of Pangu, he saw glimpses of Pangu Great God opening heaven.

In it, there were scenes of Pangu Great God holding the Pangu Banner and pioneering sky and earth.

The opening of heaven by Pangu Great God can be divided into two stages. The first stage involved fighting a great battle with the three thousand Chaos Demigods. During this stage, Pangu Great God cleaved the Chaos with the Heaven-Opening outfit.

The second stage was when all three thousand Demon Gods had perished, and Chaos had been completely split apart; Heaven and Earth were already taking shape.

It was in this stage, under the unbearable burden, the Heaven-Opening Axe shattered into three Magic Treasures, and Pangu Great God continued to pioneer sky and earth using these three treasures.

It can be said that the Heaven-Opening Axe split the Chaos, and the later creation of Heaven and Earth was done with the three Magic Treasures. This is also the origin of the Innate Treasures’ name, as Pangu wielded them to open Heaven and Earth.

In those scenes, Jiang Chen saw clearly that the Pangu Banner had the capability to destroy Chaos, rightfully making it the number one killing weapon in the Prehistoric World. Even the Slaying God Spear, known as the world’s foremost killing treasure, was inferior to the Pangu Banner in terms of the power to kill.

However, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign rarely used the Pangu Banner, which caused its abilities to be underestimated, appearing far less formidable than the Slaying God Spear.

But Jiang Chen knew!

With the Duotian Shenfan in hand, if one could restore it to its peak state, then these so-called Great Divine Transcendents could be instantly killed, each becoming "little brothers" with a single move.

No matter how powerful a Great Divine Transcendent is, can it be mightier than the Great Chaos? If even the Great Chaos can be split open to form Heaven and Earth, not to mention the Great Divine Transcendents, it would be easy to break their bodies and annihilate their True Spirits.

The Pangu Banner, or to say the three great Innate Treasures of opening heaven, if unleashed to their full might, could even injure the Heavenly Dao.

The heaven opened might refer to the Heavenly Dao itself, implying the power to split the Heavenly Dao.

...

As for how to repair the Duotian Shenfan, this was not difficult for Jiang Chen, similar to reviving the Ancestral Witches. Killing was all that was needed - the more power devoured, the quicker the recovery.

While his mind was on the matters of the Duotian Shenfan, Jiang Chen’s footsteps were not slow. After leaving the Reincarnation Hall, he briskly moved on, soon arriving in front of a grand divine hall.

This divine hall seemed incredibly ancient and simple, constructed entirely out of stones, without any hint of the opulence of the modern era. From a distance, one could even feel the primitive aura emanating from it.
