13: Pangu Chalcedony

"The Five Elements information was suddenly cut off here."

"There are three possibilities: either that ant was rescued by an existence with a Realm higher than mine,"

"Or he possesses a Five Elements supreme treasure that erased the Five Elements information,"

"Or he entered some strange land that isolated the Five Elements probe."

Old Ancestor Five Elements immediately began his analysis, speaking with great logic, which indeed showed his vast experience.

He actually managed to guess the reason for Taiqing's disappearance.

While Old Ancestor Five Elements was analyzing, Hongjun quickly caught up from behind.

Seeing that Old Ancestor Five Elements had not caught that ant, he was quite disappointed in his heart.

"Fellow Daoist Five Elements, what exactly did you discover? A mere Grand Unity Golden Immortal ant actually caught your attention so much."

Hongjun caught up, his brow slightly furrowed as he looked at the Void Realm ahead.

That Grand Unity Golden Immortal definitely had a great secret; otherwise, an existence like Old Ancestor Five Elements would never have pursued him.

"Hmph! It's nothing, I just sensed something that has an Opportunity with Me on his person."

Old Ancestor Five Elements gave a cold snort, clearly dissatisfied with Hongjun.

He was about to succeed, but then Old Thief Hongjun intervened.

If Old Thief Hongjun hadn't intervened, he would likely have caught that Grand Unity Golden Immortal by now and learned the secret of Pangu's Will.

Old Ancestor Five Elements had no hobby of sharing secrets with others.

He casually found an excuse to brush off Old Thief Hongjun.

"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, could it be that you want to snatch the item that has an Opportunity with Me?"

Old Ancestor Five Elements' Late-stage Hunyuan Golden Immortal cultivation erupted, his gaze locking onto Hongjun with ill intent.

"Oh? Is it merely an item with an Opportunity with Fellow Daoist?"

Hongjun didn't believe a single word of Old Ancestor Five Elements.

Secretly, Hongjun was communicating with the Heavenly Dao, attempting to use the Power of the Heavenly Dao to sneak into the Innate Great Formation.

Unfortunately, no matter how he communicated with the Heavenly Dao, there was no feedback.

He couldn't even draw upon the slightest bit of the Power of the Heavenly Dao.

"Forget it, there's no need to offend Old Ghost Five Elements too deeply."

"It's better to leave first and fully prepare for the Dao struggle with that fellow Luo Hou."

"Perhaps, at that time, I'll even need to use Old Ghost Five Elements' hand, making him my cannon fodder to test Luo Hou."

"Offending this cannon fodder to death now for an unknown item on a Grand Unity Golden Immortal is not worth the loss."

"In case he helps Luo Hou during my Dao struggle, it would be quite problematic."

Unable to communicate with the Heavenly Dao to draw upon the Power of the Heavenly Dao, Hongjun's plan to sneak into the Innate Great Formation fell through.

To avoid offending the Primordial Golden Immortal Mighty Being cannon fodder Old Ancestor Five Elements to death, Old Thief Hongjun already felt like retreating.

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Five Elements, please don't be angry. This old Daoist was just curious for a moment."

"After all, Pangu's Will just woke up, and Fellow Daoist was chasing a Grand Unity Golden Immortal ant."

"It inevitably made me suspicious, but it's not that I want to snatch your Opportunity."

"This old Daoist will apologize to Fellow Daoist here."

"This is the Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Purple Electric Hammer. Take it as an apology. I hope Fellow Daoist won't take this to heart."

"Don't let this damage the friendship we've had for countless Yuanhui."

Hongjun cupped his hands in a salute and took out a hammer flashing with endless purple lightning, the Purple Electric Hammer.

Its grade was actually a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

In order to prevent this powerful cannon fodder Old Ancestor Five Elements from holding a grudge, Hongjun paid a heavy price.

Now it was Old Ancestor Five Elements' turn to feel awkward. Looking at the Purple Electric Hammer, he didn't know whether to take it or not.

However, immediately thinking of Old Ancestor Hongjun's actions at the peak of Mount Buzhou, he sneered in his heart and took the Purple Electric Hammer.

"Hmph! Old Thief Hongjun, you think a mere Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure can make me let go of my grudge against you?"

"I'll take this Purple Electric Hammer. Let's see how you'll survive your Dao struggle with Luo Hou in the future."

The matter of the Dao struggle between Hongjun and Luo Hou was no longer a secret; all these Chaos Demon God Reincarnation powerhouses knew about it.

Taking the Purple Electric Hammer could weaken Old Thief Hongjun's strength a bit, and Old Ancestor Five Elements was happy to do so now.

"Then, Fellow Daoist Five Elements, this old Daoist will take his leave. Please don't take this matter to heart."

Seeing Old Ancestor Five Elements take the Purple Electric Hammer, Hongjun sneered in his heart, though his face was full of smiles.

He cupped his hands in a salute and turned into a streak of light, heading toward Jade Capital Mountain.

"Hmph! Old Ghost Five Elements, my Purple Electric Hammer is not that easy to take."

"Since you took the hammer, consider our Karma settled. Otherwise! Hmph hmph, the Karma will be hard for you to bear."

"Once your value is squeezed dry, won't this Purple Electric Hammer just return to my hands anyway!"

Hongjun's calculations were very good, using the Purple Electric Hammer to bind his Karma with Old Ancestor Five Elements.

Later, during the Dao struggle with Luo Hou, Old Ancestor Five Elements would settle this Karma by acting as Hongjun's cannon fodder and perishing.

The Purple Electric Hammer would then return to Hongjun's hands exactly as it was.

It was a perfect strategy of getting something for nothing.

"Hmph, Karma? You think I, Old Ancestor Five Elements, am that easy to fool?"

"You, Hongjun, are but a cricket, only favored by the Honghuang Heavenly Dao."

"During the Chaos Period, I was among the top ten Chaos Demon Gods."

"If you want to use Karma to plot against me, you're still an era early (five thousand Yuanhui)."

Feeling the Karma entangling him, Old Ancestor Five Elements snorted coldly, having his own plans for the Karma of the Purple Electric Hammer.

Storing the Purple Electric Hammer, Old Ancestor Five Elements built a simple Immortal Cave at the spot where Taiqing disappeared and began his stakeout.

Inside the Innate Great Formation, Taiqing had been completely shocked by the scene before him ever since he entered.

Inside the Innate Great Formation, it was like a Major Thousand World.

Within it, immortal cranes flew and Auspicious Beasts roamed.

Countless Immortal Plants and Spiritual Roots breathed out innate spiritual qi.

Lakes of spiritual liquid, formed by the liquefaction of innate spiritual qi, were scattered within the Innate Great Formation.

Most importantly, there were fifteen suns hanging high in the sky of the Major Thousand World within the Innate Great Formation.

The gentle light shone upon the entire Major Thousand World, its Spirit Beasts, Spiritual Roots, and spiritual liquids.

All of them were derived from those fifteen bright suns high in the sky.

Basking in the light of those fifteen suns, Taiqing only felt his Physical Body strength slowly increasing.

He swept his Divine Thought over those fifteen gentle suns.

Taiqing was even more astonished; his entire body even trembled because of it, and he began to dance with joy.

Those high in the sky weren't fifteen suns at all, they were clearly fifteen pieces of pangu marrow essence!

It was no wonder Taiqing was dancing with joy, his body trembling with excitement.

Anyone who encountered such a Heaven-Defying Opportunity would behave just like Taiqing.

Some might even be less composed than Taiqing.

"This... this is just too much happiness!"

"Father God, I simply love you to death! You really didn't forget us."

"You arranged marrow essence for all fifteen of us siblings."

"Rest assured, Father God, Taiqing will definitely make my younger brothers and sisters cultivate well and protect the Honghuang you created."

Taiqing was joyful in his heart; that act of playing the victim on Mount Buzhou had not been in vain.

Fifteen pieces of pangu marrow essence—Taiqing didn't even need to think to know that this was designated for each of the Three Pure Ones and Twelve Ancestral Witches.

Moreover, each being could only absorb one piece of pangu marrow essence; absorbing a second one would not have the slightest effect.

Absorbing a second one would be a pure waste.

"Father God, you are simply too great, opening the Honghuang World, transforming your body into all things in Honghuang, and creating all races."

"You also took good care of us fifteen brothers and sisters."

"Father God, in the future, Taiqing will definitely offer incense to you regularly."
