Chapter 989: 724 pioneer sky and earth

Simply put, Jiang Chen had found a better treasure and somewhat looked down upon Di Jun’s Original Source.

Although Di Jun was strong, the distance between him and a Chaos Demigod, especially the Demonic Power of Destruction, was still immensely far. Compared to his arms, his Original Source indeed lacked many tiers.

"I have been somewhat carried away recently. Although Di Jun is nowhere close to the Demonic Power of Destruction, for me, he is still an unattainable existence. His Original Source is still of great use to me, a treasure hard to find in the whole world,"

"To belittle his Original Source like this was not right, I indeed got carried away."

Jiang Chen began to self-critique, feeling that he had been carried away recently by disregarding Di Jun’s Original Source, which was improper.

One should always stay grounded. A Chaos Demigod or such was too far removed from him, whereas an existence like Di Jun was much closer, looming over his head, looking down on him, and placing tremendous pressure on him.

The meaning of Di Jun’s existence was the motivation for Jiang Chen’s diligent cultivation. Should he not practice diligently and swiftly enhance his strength, once Di Jun recovered, his own outcome would be absolutely miserable. Even if he didn’t die, he would live in constant dread, always having to hide.

"Cultivation!"

"Chaos Demigod and such are too far from me. I should first resolve the matters of the Prehistoric World, then think about the affairs of Chaos,"

Jiang Chen shook his head, cutting off the distractions in his heart.

He had yet to have the strength to solve the affairs of the Prehistoric World and was already contemplating the matters of Chaos; it was like a mortal spending their days pondering how to stop the destruction of the universe, truly an overthought.

Moving his gaze upwards, Jiang Chen looked at the seat of the Chaos Green Lotus. There, quietly lay a Divine Fetus of Chaos, with Great Dao runes swirling around it and the light of creation and transformation enveloping it, exceedingly sacred as if nurturing a Supreme God.

Indeed, a Supreme God, for what was being nurtured within this vast Divine Fetus was Jiang Chen’s foundation, as well as the Supreme God of this Chaos, the incarnation of Chaos, Pangu Jiang Chen!

All of Jiang Chen, including his Innate Indestructible True Spirit, were concentrated in this Great Dao Divine Fetus, nurtured by the surrounding Chaos Qi and even the Chaos Green Lotus, constantly metamorphosing and moving towards perfection.

Jiang Chen’s spirit fixated on this Great Dao Divine Fetus for a long time and could clearly see that within, a Supreme God was being nurtured, its face identical to his, lying inside and soundly asleep.

As he slept within the fetus, it seemed indeed as if everything in the outside world was unrelated to him.

Once this god was born, pioneering sky and earth within him and then destroying the newly born heaven and earth, Jiang Chen would have achieved his breakthrough.

This was Jiang Chen’s Tao, to understand the true essence of reincarnation between the opening and destroying of heaven and earth, thus transcending and directly attaining the realm of eternity.

This was Jiang Chen’s own path, drastically different from the path of Pangu, and this path was proof that Jiang Chen had stepped out from under Pangu’s influence.

He had already carved out his own Tao and only needed to walk it resolutely; in the future, he might be able to achieve Pangu’s realm or even surpass him.

Whoosh~~

At a certain moment, Jiang Chen’s spirit shook, suddenly disappearing from where he was and entering into that Great Dao Divine Fetus, merging with the nurturing Supreme God, Pangu Jiang Chen, inside.

In an instant, this Pangu Jiang Chen, who had still been soundly asleep, seemed to awaken with an intelligence, coming to his senses, and opened his eyes.

Those eyes were incredibly pure, devoid of the slightest impurity, like a newborn baby just arrived in this world, curiously observing everything around.

Alas, that pure gaze did not last long before it faded away, replaced by a pair of resolute eyes. Jiang Chen’s spirit had completely mastered this divine body.

Pangu Jiang Chen’s body, being nurtured by the Chaotic Spiritual Treasure, the Chaos Green Lotus, inherently carried the breath of Chaos. However, since his essence ultimately originated from Jiang Chen, it was inevitable that his being would bear a trace of the aura of the Prehistoric World.

The combination of the two resulted in Pangu Jiang Chen’s body not being perfectly immaculate; it could not be considered a pure creature of Chaos but existed between Chaos and the Innate.

This was an exceptionally unique state, allowing Jiang Chen to feel the difference between Chaos and the fabric of Heaven and Earth more directly. In a sense, this was also a stroke of fortune, for not everyone had the opportunity to comprehend the distinctions between Chaos and the cosmos.

When Pangu Jiang Chen created and destroyed worlds, it was also a process of self-purification. With each cycle of creation and destruction, the Chaos Qi within him grew stronger, until at last, it would completely eradicate the Innate Qi within him, transforming him into a being of Chaos.

Even further, he might metamorphose into a Chaos Demigod like the Pangu Great God, becoming the most perfect creature in this world.

Heavenly Dao is flawed; thus, the creatures it creates are naturally imperfect. But the Great Dao is flawless, so the Chaos Demigods born of its will are the most perfect beings in the world.

Born an Innate Taoist Master, with just a bit of cultivation, one can step into the realm of the Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial, or even ascend to higher realms.

Jiang Chen’s Tao is about transformation, continually evolving oneself, defying destiny, graduating from a common postnatal creature to an Innate Divine Demon, Innate Saint, and even a Chaos Demigod, until at last transforming into an eternal and undying practitioner of the Great Dao.

...

"Open!"

When Pangu Jiang Chen opened his eyes, it was time to pioneer sky and earth, while when the Pangu Great God closed his eyes, it was the moment to destroy Heaven and obliterate Earth.

At this moment, Pangu Jiang Chen opened his eyes, naturally to create sky and land. He lifted his right hand, and a purple axe appeared quietly in it. With his action, he ferociously split the Dao Divine Fetus nurturing him into two.

Thus, Pangu Jiang Chen was born.

The axe in his hands, known as the Open Sky Divine Axe, was his accompanying spiritual treasure. It was born with the opening of the sky, and with it, would perish.

Boom!

Understanding his heavenly mandate, Pangu Jiang Chen swung the Open Sky Axe, cleaving through Chaos, performing the act of opening sky and earth.

Jiang Chen’s strength naturally fell short of Pangu, but the Chaos within him was also not as vast as the true Great Chaos beyond this realm. Moreover, no Chaos Demigods came to obstruct his path when he was creating the world.

Therefore, his path to opening the sky was exceptionally smooth. With each swing of the axe, Chaos was split open, and a domain gradually took shape within it.

And with each swing of the Open Sky Axe, Jiang Chen’s cultivation increased, and his understanding of Divine Abilities became even more profound.

Every axe blow was a summary of his Great Dao, containing all his heart and soul, transforming into the power to pioneer sky and earth and to create the world he envisioned.

Those streaks of light from his axe were, in fact, transformations of various Divine Abilities. With every parting of Chaos, Jiang Chen’s cultivation grew, and his Divine Abilities ascended, becoming stronger.
