Chapter 82: Pangu Heart Enters My Body

"In this world, I fear only the Wu Clan could endure this!"

Feeling the blood water surging madly from all sides, Tian Yuan did not feel any tension.

A faint wisp of aura overflowed from his skin, and the blood water that had been eroding him instantly became gentle.

They circled around Tian Yuan, flowing back and forth like a mischievous child.

Tian Yuan ignored them and dove headfirst toward the bottom of the Blood Pool.

Feeling the increasingly intense call from deep within his heart, Tian Yuan's eyes grew more and more expectant.

Before long, a "thump, thump, thump" sound echoed within the blood water below.

And as he continued to dive, the vaguely transmitted vibration became clearer.

The Blood Pool did not look large, but it contained a world of its own; after flying for an unknown amount of time, Tian Yuan heard a clear heartbeat.

Sensing carefully, he could even detect faint ripples in the surrounding blood water; he had approached the source.

Finally, amidst a series of slightly rapid vibrations, Tian Yuan saw the culprit behind the sound.

A withered heart, still hundreds of zhang in size, with dried-up blood vessels exposed amidst black-brown, nameless tissue.

They were soaked in the blood water, and with every vibration, faint energy rippled out.

Sensing Tian Yuan's appearance, the heart beat somewhat rapidly, and the blood vessels swayed in the air, as if welcoming Tian Yuan's arrival.

Without a doubt, this was the true Pangu Heart before his eyes.

"Those spendthrift brats of the Wu Clan!" The nearly exhausted energy within the heart made Tian Yuan unable to help but curse out loud.

It is true that the Blood Pool could nurture the Wu Clan, but it was clear that besides cultivating, the Ancestral Witches just used it to manufacture the Wu Clan.

During the Witch-Demon Calamity, as members of the Wu Clan constantly fell, the few Ancestral Witches must have been even more frantic in creating the Wu Clan, causing the energy in the heart to dry up completely.

The Blood Pool could no longer give birth to Wu people, and the Wu Clan's fertility was low; no wonder they later advocated intermarriage with the Human Race.

The residual energy in the Pangu Heart was wasted by those few Ancestral Witches in such a profligate manner.

Filled with immense expectation, Tian Yuan slowly walked forward; he reached out his right hand and gently pressed it onto the beating heart.

A familiar aura rushed toward him, giving Tian Yuan a strange sense of intimacy.

Within the Pangu Temple, this was the thing he desired most.

Just as Tian Yuan was thinking about how to take this heart away, he saw the heart in front of him tremble slightly, then rapidly shrink, turning into the size of a human head and floating before him.

"Hoo!"

Tian Yuan took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart; this trip had gone far more smoothly than he had imagined.

Just as Tian Yuan was about to grasp the heart, he saw it turn into a streak of blood light and submerge directly into his chest.

A scorching sensation flowed, and with a "bang" sound, a strong and powerful heartbeat was transmitted.

Tian Yuan's whole body trembled, and an indescribable feeling of comfort spread throughout his entire body.

At the same time, accompanied by the influx of a rich aura of laws, he was instantly able to perceive the existence of the Three Thousand Laws.

Tian Yuan stood frozen on the spot, his eyes wide open.

Extending his hands, laws were visible everywhere, dancing around his hands.

Tian Yuan could even clearly feel their emotions: excitement, joy.

This change completely exceeded his imagination. At this moment, Tian Yuan felt as if he had become the Primordial World, and the entire heaven and earth were drawing close to him.

Just as Tian Yuan was shocked in his heart, a "thump" sound came from his chest again.

A surge of vigorous blood energy poured in, and on his skin, dense dregs and gravel overflowed, annihilating in the blood water.

His originally ten-zhang-tall burly body shrank directly to six zhang in size.

The Pangu Heart had brutally tempered his physical body, and the color of his skin also tended toward mysterious yellow.

"Thump!"

Before Tian Yuan could even be excited or happy, another heartbeat exploded.

From his chest, a mysterious energy drifted out, rapidly spreading toward Tian Yuan's entire body until it enveloped him.

As that energy submerged into his body, a domineering aura dissipated from Tian Yuan's skin.

Tian Yuan widened his eyes and exclaimed in a low voice: "Ancestral Witch Body! I actually have an Ancestral Witch Body too!"

This kind of might, he had personally felt it from Ancestral Witches like Gonggong; there could be no mistake.

This... this... Tian Yuan stood dazed on the spot, staring blankly at his own chest.

Sneaking into the Pangu Temple to steal the heart was merely a spur-of-the-moment decision; he had not expected such a massive stroke of fortune.

The first vibration deepened his compatibility with the Three Thousand Laws, which meant that cultivating laws in the future would be twice the result with half the effort.

The second sound once again tempered his physical body.

The final sound directly bestowed upon him an Ancestral Witch Body.

The current Tian Yuan's physical body would be no weaker than any Ancestral Witch.

The Ancestral Witch Body was not only manifested in a powerful physical body, but it was more like a great momentum granted by the recognition of heaven and earth, a power of control that transcended all things.

At this moment, Tian Yuan inexplicably felt that the Primordial World belonged to him alone, and no one could snatch it away.

No wonder the Ancestral Witches did not worship heaven or respect earth, only honoring Pangu; that was truly not wrong at all.

Only after three vibrations, the Pangu Heart had no more movement, not even a single beat.

Tian Yuan gently stroked his chest and could still feel a warmth.

Swallowing his saliva, Tian Yuan muttered softly: "What on earth am I?"

Previously, Tian Yuan thought he was just a stone man who had obtained a heaven-defying fortune and possessed this avatar of Mount Buzhou.

But given the current situation, how could it be as simple as being a stone man? That was Pangu's heart; ordinary living beings could hardly even approach it, let alone press the heart onto their bodies and have it vibrate three times inside.

If it were any other Innate Sacred, they might have exploded and died, yet he had no discomfort at all.

Although Mount Buzhou was his avatar, there was no reason for it to be so favored by the Pangu Heart.

Tian Yuan was too lazy to rack his brain over things he couldn't figure out; in any case, there was no harm in it for now.

This trip to Pangu Temple was absolutely a massive stroke of good fortune. Just by coming here once, his strength had undergone a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering change.

The Pangu Heart had completely quieted down; it was very clear that the other party was not looking for a body.

Even if it wanted to move to a new place, the probability was high that it would be Mount Buzhou, which was also Tian Yuan's original intention for coming here.

With a 'whoosh', Tian Yuan escaped from the Blood Pool.

Glancing at the Blood Pool before him, Tian Yuan stepped out of the temple.

Lacking an energy source, if the few Ancestral Witches did not cherish it, the Blood Pool would not last long.

However, these things had nothing to do with him; perhaps before long, the Ancestral Witches would be able to reunite within the Earth Vein.

Carrying immense anticipation, Tian Yuan exited the valley; the aura representing Gonggong on the horizon still had not moved.

"A bunch of cute fools!" Tian Yuan rubbed his chest and escaped toward Mount Buzhou.

Upon reaching Mount Buzhou, Tian Yuan's figure vanished, and he had already arrived in the Consciousness Space.

Tian Yuan, having just appeared, had not yet had time to observe his surroundings when he felt a heat in his chest, and the Pangu Heart slowly flew out.

As expected!

The withered heart grew in the wind, transforming into the size of several hundred zhang as it was when they first met.

It began to float toward the sky until it stopped at the peak of Mount Buzhou.

At the same time, the Mount Buzhou beneath him trembled slightly, and the Mysterious Yellow Qi shrouding the mountain body surged out wildly.

They circled the heart floating above the peak, transformed into energy blood vessels that extended toward Mount Buzhou, and then pierced into the mountain body.

More and more blood vessels condensed, connecting the Pangu Heart to Mount Buzhou.

Tian Yuan could clearly see energy within Mount Buzhou flowing against the current, pouring into the heart.

The heart floating in the air began to sink slowly, as if it wanted to drill entirely into the body of Mount Buzhou.

The residual blood energy in the heart drew numerous Free-roaming Wills in the air to pounce toward it.

Before Tian Yuan could even make a move, he saw the heart above his head vibrate gently, and an invisible wave of air swept out.

A piercing roar sounded, and the chaotic wills within a radius of ten thousand li were all crushed to pieces.

The remaining residual wills all fled frantically in all directions, accompanied by terrified screams, never daring to approach even slightly again.

Tian Yuan widened his eyes, and the smile on his face grew even brighter.

Overjoyed in his heart, he slowly calmed his mind.

After a while, he opened his eyes, filled with excitement.

Just as he had thought, the Pangu Heart wanted to merge with Mount Buzhou.

The Pangu Heart had only vibrated three times while borrowed in his body, yet it had brought such a great stroke of good fortune.

Once it merged with Mount Buzhou, for this world, it would absolutely be a heaven-shaking great blessing.

And for himself, it was likewise a heaven-defying harvest. With the heart now in Mount Buzhou, Tian Yuan was very expectant.

As for the Witch-Demon Calamity, the current Tian Yuan had long since ceased to fear it; what he was thinking about was purifying and repairing all the Earth Veins, and then managing his own Primordial World well.

Tian Yuan had a vague feeling that the repair of the other three Earth Veins could not be done without the Pangu Heart.

Retrieving the Pangu Heart was far more worth celebrating than purifying the Earth Veins.

In the Earth Vein, Kuafu and the other Great Witches all raised their heads, looking toward the firmament in confusion.

Unknown when, at the peak of that brilliant sacred mountain, a large mass of Mysterious Yellow Qi was shrouding it, like a Mysterious Yellow-colored precious pearl, blooming with dazzling radiance.

After looking closely for a moment, Kuafu turned his head to look at Houyi not far away: "Houyi, that fluctuation just now?"

Just now, he seemed to have felt the call of the Father God, but it vanished in an instant.

Houyi shook his head, his eyes filled with bewilderment. As a Great Witch, he had likewise sensed it.

It was just that Mount Buzhou had no unusual movement, and since no Earth Vein had been cleared, what was that massive mass of Mysterious Yellow Qi?

He flew out of the Earth Vein and could only see countless Mysterious Yellow Qi hanging down, covering the entire peak.

As for what was inside, he was unable to see clearly.

However, when looking at Mount Buzhou, which emitted the vast will of the Father God, Houyi always had a strange feeling, yet he could not put it into words for a moment.

Just at this time, Xingtian's voice of surprise came from the side: "The Father God's will seems to have come alive."

Houyi's whole body shook, and instantly, golden light flared in his eyes.

He hurriedly examined Mount Buzhou carefully; that was right, it was exactly this feeling. At this moment, Mount Buzhou seemed to have gained life.

Earlier, Mount Buzhou had emitted an ancient, thick aura, but it lacked a trace of spirituality.

But now, the towering Mount Buzhou before him had already taken on a trace of spirituality.

Mount Buzhou was going to take human form? This... how could this be possible?

Houyi opened his mouth wide, his expression somewhat dazed.

Then, without the slightest hesitation, Houyi flew up and escaped toward Mount Buzhou.

Xingtian in the air scratched his head, somewhat unable to understand Houyi's actions.

After seeing Kuafu and the others escape, he also immediately followed.

Many Great Witches stood under Mount Buzhou; Houyi reached out and touched Mount Buzhou, and vaguely, he felt a faint pulse.

But when he tried to sense it carefully, there was no perception at all, as if it had just been an illusion.

Greatly alarmed in his heart, Houyi turned his head to look at Kuafu and the others on the side.

But he saw they were only looking at the sacred mountain piously, without any abnormality.

Houyi knew the personalities of his few good friends; none were as meticulous as him, so they definitely hadn't sensed anything.

At this very moment, Houyi only wanted to know where Houtu was.

Aside from Tian Yuan, perhaps only this Ancestral Witch could explain it to him.
