Chapter 1 The Vast Beginning

The Hongmeng Divine Realm is a vast and boundless chaotic world. Since its birth, it has experienced nearly a thousand Yanjis (epochs). From its inception to the present day, there have been many powerful forces that flourished for a time, but as time passed, most of them disintegrated.

Prosperity and decline are the order and laws of heaven and earth, ordained by Hongmeng (the Creator), and no one can change them. Even Tianzun (Heavenly Sovereigns) seem powerless in the face of such great trends.

Of course, although the top powerhouses dominate the four poles of heaven and earth, they also rise from humble beginnings, just like the Ascension Alliance and the Divine Realm Alliance, either from countless weak universe spaces, or from this vast Divine Realm.

For Ascenders to enter the Divine Realm, they need to pass through the Ascension Pool. Those who ascend from the lower realms will appear from the Ascension Pool. The number of Ascension Pools in the entire Divine Realm is fixed, with only three thousand in total. These Ascension Pools existed since the birth of the Divine Realm, cannot be destroyed, and are eternally present.

It can be said that the Ascension Pool is an opportunity Hongmeng left for the creatures of the lower realms. If there are enough monstrous geniuses, after arduous cultivation, they have the hope of entering the Divine Realm through the Ascension Pool.

However, Ascenders are not so easy to appear. In the past, each Ascension Pool could only receive one Ascender every few years.

However, this day was different. In the vast Divine Realm, all three thousand Ascension Pools shone simultaneously. Within the Ascension Pools, which were only a hundred meters in radius, sacred and pure white mist rolled, as if a jiaolong (mythical dragon) was roaring in the Ascension Pool.

Before long, the surging mist had already enveloped a vast area.

"Such an amazing sight, how many Ascenders is this?!"

Ascension Pools are usually guarded by creatures, mostly of the Divine Human realm. They are responsible for receiving Ascenders, recording their identities, introducing the Divine Realm, assigning tasks, and so on.

The one speaking now was a relatively experienced guardian. After all, this kind of thing is very rare. Such a large-scale ascension phenomenon was something he had never even heard of; it's rare even in tens of millions of years!

As the white mist rolled, many figures appeared rather abruptly above the clouds.

"Chi chi~~"

Immediately afterward, streams of clearly visible dark golden energy rushed out of the Ascension Pool. Each stream of golden energy entered a figure's body, with a total of nine dark golden energy pillars.

"Nine Ascenders... how is that possible?!"

After seeing the Ascenders appear, even the previously experienced guardian was stunned. Three or five appearing at the same time was already rare, but now nine Ascenders appeared simultaneously. This had probably never happened since the existence of this Ascension Pool.

"This Ascension Pool in our Xianfeng City only corresponds to 100 universe spaces, right? Nine Ascenders ascend simultaneously from one hundred spaces, this... this has never been heard of!"

Another guardian said in surprise. Each city's Ascension Pool can only receive a fixed number of universe spaces. Even if similar-level universe spaces are derived later, they can only choose to cross over and go to an Ascension Pool in a universe space that can ascend.

Xianfeng City is just ordinary among the three thousand cities in the Divine Realm. The city lord is only a Divine King who has comprehended the first level of the Law of Time, and is not considered a powerhouse in this Hongmeng Divine Realm at all.

Especially compared to the top city lords in the three thousand divine cities, the Xianfeng City lord is undoubtedly much weaker.

But today, the weak Xianfeng City welcomed nine Ascenders at once. Anyone would find it difficult to remain calm.

However, they didn't know that the Ascenders appearing in Xianfeng City today were just a minority. In some truly large cities, the number of Ascenders was as high as dozens!

Roughly calculated, on this day alone, there were tens of thousands of Ascenders. Not to mention these guardians, even those Divine King-level city lords were horrified after learning about this.

Even several Tianzun secretly took action to investigate, but they eventually saw Jiang Xuan's Reincarnation Tower in the lower realms, guessed the cause and effect, and stopped pursuing the matter.

However, Jiang Xuan's actions also aroused the dissatisfaction of the Divine Realm Alliance. After all, Jiang Xuan initially chose to join the rogue cultivator camp, but now he has taught tens of thousands of Ascenders through some means. In their view, he is already biased towards the Ascender Alliance.

However, these Ascenders cannot even compare to Divine Humans yet, and Jiang Xuan has not deployed in the Divine Realm, nor has he interfered in the internal affairs of the Divine Realm, and has not violated the agreement, so they cannot say much.

Time flies, and more than three thousand years have passed quietly, but for the creatures of the Divine Realm, thousands of years is just a blink of an eye.

Because of this, the grand occasion of tens of thousands of people ascending on the same day is still unforgettable, but those creatures are still very weak now.

After all, when they ascended, they were not even considered Divine Humans, but only reserve Divine Humans. Under normal circumstances, reserve Divine Humans need tens of millions of years of arduous cultivation to become true Divine Humans.

Even though they had obtained considerable opportunities in the Reincarnation Tower, very few of them have truly become Divine Humans, and even fewer have reached higher levels.

Of course, there are also extremely amazing ones. In a few thousand years, they have reached the level of Intermediate and Advanced Divine Humans, and even one or two heaven-defying ones have reached the level of Lower Heavenly Gods!

Moreover, they have been inquiring about what kind of existence created the Reincarnation Tower in the lower realms, but no one has ever told them. They have only heard some rumors that it is related to a certain Tianzun.

But what kind of existence is a Tianzun? There is no way for them to see one, at least not now.

So even if they have any ideas, they cannot realize them now. They can only improve their strength first, and make plans when their strength is sufficient in the future.

……

Jun Tian Domain, within the Taixuan Daoist Temple, a young Daoist dressed in a star-patterned Daoist robe is sitting in meditation. This person is Jiang Xuan. Now his Dao practice is becoming more and more profound. Even though he has not yet broken the shackles of Tianzun, in this field, he can definitely be said to be invincible.

However, for the past few thousand years, he has been sitting here in meditation, his divine soul interacting with heaven and earth, comprehending the mysteries of this Hongmeng Divine Realm, and has long reached an unfathomable state.

As for his dharma body, it was sent by him to the lower realms to take charge of the Reincarnation Tower, using it to comprehend the rules and order, cultivation systems, and so on of endless universe spaces.

Moreover, Jiang Xuan's dharma body has not reached the Tianzun level. In the ninth level of the Reincarnation Tower, it can maintain a time flow rate of hundreds of millions of times. It has now comprehended for nearly one Yanjis, and its comprehension of the endless universes of the lower realms has long reached an unbelievable level.

As for his true body, it has also arranged a time formation, but as a Tianzun, the effect of the Law of Time on him is very small. Even if he himself takes action to maintain the time formation, he can only barely maintain it at a thousand times acceleration.

But even so, his true body has been sitting in meditation here for millions of years, and with the constant integration of the dharma body's comprehension, his understanding of the Hongmeng Divine Realm and even the entire Hongmeng universe is becoming clearer and clearer.

"This retreat of mine can be said to be the longest one among all people." Spring goes and autumn comes, Jiang Xuan himself has forgotten how long he has been sitting in meditation. He is immersed in the vast Hongmeng universe, and his divine soul and true spirit seem to be merging with this Hongmeng universe.

However, on this day, Jiang Xuan woke up from his meditation. In an instant, he seemed like a god of creation, with all things in his heart, but that feeling quickly dissipated, and the whole person seemed to have returned to simplicity, unable to see the truth, and faintly about to transcend heaven and earth.

"The Hongmeng universe, billions of spaces, although different, the initial origin is ultimately the power of Hongmeng!" Jiang Xuan smiled lightly.

As Hongmeng said, the Hongmeng universe was created by him with the power of Hongmeng, and everything here is transformed by the power of Hongmeng. Matter, energy, laws, and creatures are all born from the power of Hongmeng.

Jiang Xuan has observed the Hongmeng universe, comprehended all the Daos and laws, strengthened himself, and at the same time traced back to the origin, evolved the power of Hongmeng, and understood the essence of it.

"However, this is not my path either."

Jiang Xuan chuckled. Although he needs to use the power of Hongmeng, he does not intend to transcend by cultivating the Hongmeng Body.

In fact, his body has already undergone great changes. Kinds of laws are intertwined and engraved in his flesh and blood. Each cell is like a vast world.

The Zhujie (All Worlds) Law is evolving in his body, countless laws are intertwined on his flesh, and finally, all the laws seem to be converging towards the depths of his sea of consciousness.

Crossing the boundaries of reality and illusion, in the depths of Jiang Xuan's sea of consciousness, there is a seed branded with billions of laws, and the great Dao heavenly sound is resounding, as if ancient gods are chanting scriptures.

This seed is extremely miraculous, surpassing a certain boundary. In the mysterious lines, what is engraved is the Dao and law of infinite worlds, the most essential "Dao."

"It's time too." Jiang Xuan thought to himself, and at the same time his mind sank into his sea of consciousness, and he saw the Dao seed floating in his sea of consciousness.

This is the Dao seed of the Zhutian (All Heavens) Law. After a long period of evolution, it is already different from when it was first formed. Even if it has not yet reached its ultimate sublimation, one can feel the supreme power of it, and use it to comprehend infinite rules.

However, he also knows in his heart that in his current realm, he has reached the extreme. With the help of the Reincarnation Tower and the enlightenment of the dharma body, his accumulation has long been extremely profound, reaching the limit that Tianzun can reach.

Of course, more importantly, he has communicated with the Xiaozhutian (Small All Heavens) Jiang Xuan many times, and has also discovered some mysteries, and further improved the Zhutian Law.

Their discovery is precisely the "origin" of endless space!

Take Hongmeng space as an example. The power of Hongmeng evolves everything. It is the origin of Hongmeng space. As long as one can bear this power, one can directly become a controller like Lin Lei.

And as long as one can control the origin, one can evolve various systems. Just as various world cultivation systems have appeared in Xiaozhutian, they are evolved from the origin.

This discovery also gave them a new idea, that is, from "melting the Zhutian Laws into one furnace" to "evolving the Zhutian Laws with the origin."

Both paths have the possibility of success, but the first one is too difficult. There are not so many Jiang Xuans in the Chaos space now, let alone melting the Zhutian Laws into one furnace and transforming them into his own use.

And the latter, is also very difficult. After all, to comprehend the origin, there are very high requirements in realm, and according to their speculation, endless spaces are also divided into strong and weak, but even the weakest endless space, just contacting it, requires a cultivation level such as Divine Kings or True Immortals.

And like Hongmeng space, which is a top-level one, even Jiang Xuan, who is a Tianzun, will be dissolved by the power of Hongmeng when he enters Hongmeng space. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to comprehend it.

Jiang Xuan traced back to the origin, this was originally the first path, but in the end, it allowed him to reverse the deduction of the power of Hongmeng, which can be regarded as taking a shortcut. Of course, it is not easy to take a shortcut. The true body took millions of years in retreat with time acceleration, and the dharma body took nearly one Yanjis!

At the same time, there must be Daos and laws of other worlds as a reference and reference, at least a Tianzun's peak cultivation, and it must be in the Hongmeng universe, which is created by the origin controller, to successfully deduce it through his method.

Moreover, this is just his success, others may not be able to, and in his opinion, although the Hongmeng universe is stable, especially the Divine Realm, which even Tianzun cannot destroy, the model is too rigid and lacks killing. The probability of a heaven-defying creature appearing is too small.

This is like Lin Lei, how long did it take from starting cultivation to refining the Hongmeng Body, only tens of thousands of years at most in the main world, on the other hand, the other gods in the Panlong affiliated universe have lived for trillions of years, but they still cannot compare with Lin Lei.

Therefore, if Jiang Xuan were to create the universe, he would probably choose a form similar to Perfect, creating contradictions and disputes, and no creature at any level could be spared. Creatures who grow up in desperation are more likely to break the shackles.

As for the Zhutian Law, Jiang Xuan himself knows that it is not a complete cultivation system, after all, the required foundation is too high, and low-level creatures cannot cultivate it at all. It can only be said that there is a prototype, and there will be opportunities for transformation again in the future.

"Ultimate sublimation!"

In the dojo, Jiang Xuan is sitting cross-legged, and in his sea of consciousness, the Zhutian Dao seed is not peaceful.

"Rumble~~"

The Dao seed was originally peaceful, with the chanting sound of the supreme existence, but now it has changed. The Zhutian Dao seed actually has cracks, and the chaotic energy is surging, and it seems to be breeding a boundless ancient world.

At this moment, the sound of the Great Dao trembles, the heavens are trembling, the Daos and laws of various systems are intertwined, and kinds of laws are evolving. The entire sea of consciousness seems to be setting off a monstrous wave.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the Zhutian Dao seed exploded in the sea of consciousness, turning into a piece of chaos. However, everything did not end. In that constant annihilation, in the seemingly endless chaos, there are actually dots of starlight, countless, like stars scattered in the universe. Although the light is weak, it illuminates the dark sea of consciousness!

"Chi!"

I don't know how long it has passed, the countless stars, like nutrients, are absorbed by that piece of chaos, and finally dim.

But everything did not end. In destruction, there is also life. A golden sapling rushed out of the dead chaos, like a plant sprouting and breaking through the soil, but it took root in the chaos, and the nutrients also came from the boundless chaos.

"Guide!"

Jiang Xuan gave a soft shout. In the Hongmeng Divine Realm, infinite divine power is surging wildly. Various laws, spiritual treasures, substances, and even various energies are now surging towards Jiang Xuan.

But in this process, everything is dissolving, returning to the most primitive state, turning into the origin, and constantly evolving into the power of Hongmeng, constantly pouring into Jiang Xuan's sea of consciousness.

And Jiang Xuan's flesh body also cannot withstand the power of Hongmeng. It is dissolving, but it has not dissipated, but it has also turned into the power of Hongmeng and poured into his sea of consciousness, falling into that piece of chaos.

"Chaos is the soil, and the power of Hongmeng is the nutrient, nurturing the Zhutian Dao and law, and turning it into the supreme Dao tree!"

"Rumble~"

As Jiang Xuan's voice fell, the golden sapling began to absorb the power of Hongmeng, and grew rapidly, from the initial sapling, growing to ten zhang, hundred zhang, thousand zhang, ten thousand zhang...

This Zhutian Dao tree can be said to be the transformation of Jiang Xuan's Dao fruit. It uses the origin of an endless space to evolve the laws of the Zhujie. No matter which world's law, it can be evolved with the origin of the endless space.

This is equivalent to bypassing the Hongmeng Gold List to become a controller. Even in a world without a special existence like the Hongmeng Gold List, you can use this Dao to become a controller of an endless space!

Time flies, and the Zhutian Dao tree finally stops growing.

Now, the Zhutian Dao tree is as high as 108,000 zhang, each golden leaf is branded with a kind of cultivation system, and on the branches, mysterious lines explain endless laws. All the rules seem to be in it.

Moreover, Jiang Xuan knows that this has not ended yet. As he continues to learn the Daos and laws of the heavens and worlds and integrate them into the Zhutian Dao tree, this Dao tree will continue to grow, and perhaps one day, it can reach the level of one leaf per heaven.

"Condense!"

The true spirit gave a soft shout, and Jiang Xuan's flesh body condensed again, but the difference is that now his flesh body is condensed by the power of Hongmeng, which is equivalent to the Hongmeng Body, and it is more pure, comparable to Hongmeng's natural creatures.

"Senior."

The flesh body reappeared, Jiang Xuan transformed into a star-patterned Daoist robe, standing in the dojo, just like that day, the first one standing in front of him when he woke up, is still the controller Hongmeng as he is now.

But the difference is that at that time, Hongmeng was just curious about Jiang Xuan, but now, he is very shocked, but also extremely happy!
