Chapter 165

The Primeval Plane.

The moment the Four Spirit Holy Beasts appeared above the heavens, all the Primeval Human Race raised their heads to gaze at the sky, their eyes showing utmost reverence.

All the Primeval Human Race understood that, before Fuxi, the Chief Deity appeared, the entire Primeval era survived solely by relying on the guardianship of the Four Great Holy Beasts, otherwise it would have been destroyed by gods and demons.

On the Holy Mountain.

Feng Yun Wuji had already awakened from receiving the inheritance at this moment, likewise opening his mouth wide, incredulously gazing at the Four Spirit Holy Beasts above the heavens.

In the earlier lecture by Senior Meng Ze, he had already understood the importance of the Four Spirit Holy Beasts to the Primeval Human Race.

What Feng Yun Wuji did not expect was that, having only just learned about the Four Great Holy Beasts not long ago, he now had the chance to truly see the Primeval era's Four Great Guardian Holy Beasts.

Feeling the sacred aura emitted by the Four Great Holy Beasts, which surpassed everything, Feng Yun Wuji's eyes shone with intense longing.

This is the pinnacle of power in this universe!

Under the reverent gaze of all the Primeval Human Race's powerhouses, the Four Spirit Holy Beasts merged directly, transforming into an intertwined yin-yang fish, then descended from the heavens and submerged into the summit of the Holy Mountain.

"Fuxi, the Chief Deity!"

Upon seeing this, many human powerhouses immediately understood that the phenomenon of the Four Spirit Holy Beasts at this moment was related to the sole Chief Deity of the current human race.

After all, the Primeval Human Race now clearly knows that the summit of the Holy Mountain is the cultivation ground of Fuxi, the Chief Deity.

Boom—

Before everyone's thoughts could fully settle, a thunderous roar that shook the heavens and earth rang out, an indescribably terrifying heavenly might descended upon the Primeval Plane, instantly sweeping every corner of it.

In an instant, throughout the Primeval Plane, all humans felt their hairs stand on end, sensing a soul‑shaking dread and tremor, their minds and spirits trembling uncontrollably.

Crack—crack

Repeated sounds of space shattering rang out; people instinctively looked up in horror to discover that the firmament of the Primeval Plane had directly shattered.

Faintly, people seemed able to see the starry universe and endless dark void through the cracked space.

"What happened?"

"Is the Primeval Plane going to be destroyed?"

"How could this happen at this time?"

One incredulous voice after another rang out, and all the Primeval Plane's human powerhouses turned pale.

This heavenly might was truly too terrifying; even compared to the Chief Deity who surpasses everything, it seemed inferior.

This is the vast heavenly might originating from the origin of the entire universe!

Hum—

Just as fear arose in everyone's hearts, a vast and ethereal qi surged skyward, like a great yin‑yang bagua diagram, silently harmonizing with the natural power of heaven and earth, instantly erasing all heavenly might.

The next moment, the shattered firmament became hazy; a tall figure in mysterious robes appeared above the heavens, directly confronting the supreme heavenly might that surpasses everything and blocking it entirely.

"Fuxi, the Chief Deity!"

Cries of astonishment rang out, and the eyes of many human powerhouses blazed with fervor.

"Is that not Fuxi, the Chief Deity, or rather Fuxi the Teacher?"

Feng Yun Wuji likewise lifted his gaze to the mysterious‑robed figure that appeared above the heavens, who alone halted the vast heavenly might, his eyes showing respect.

Having already received this Chief Deity's inheritance, in Feng Yun Wuji's heart that person is his teacher.

Feng Yun Wuji never expected that, having just arrived at the Holy Mountain not long ago, he would see this Divine Needle that Calms the Sea of the Primeval Human Race.

Above the heavens.

Feng Yi gazed with deep eyes into the depths of the universe; his vision pierced the river of time and space, seeing a terrifying white light that made even the Chief Deity palpitate.

This white light contained the universe's most fundamental grand law, transcending time and space, unbound by the river of time, past or future limits, capable of destroying anything that affects the universe's balance.

Before this white light, everything in this universe is insignificant, including the Chief Deity positioned at the universe's apex.

This is the true power of the Balance Law, maintaining the operation of countless planes in the universe, able to annihilate anyone or anything in this universe that disrupts balance.

To some extent, this white light can even be said to be the power of this universe's Heavenly Dao.

In a world where the Balance Law maintains the universe's operation, the Balance Law in some respects is not much different from the Heavenly Dao.

Now, Feng Yi, by relying on the connection between the Four Spirit Holy Beasts and the Balance Law, forcibly seized part of this universe's most fundamental Supreme Law, directly invoking a backlash of the Balance Law, and indeed it could be said to be a backlash of the universe's Great Dao.

This is the integration of the universe's entire power, a force far surpassing the level of the Chief Deity, nearly equivalent to the power of a great universe, impossible to resist.

Even if Feng Yi were to be struck head‑on by it, he would likely only end up utterly annihilated.

"Truly worthy of being the power of the Balance Law that maintains the universe's operation—it has indeed reached the utmost extremity; no wonder no person or deity in this universe dares to truly meddle with the Balance Law!"

This thought arose in his mind; although his heart pounded, Feng Yi's expression did not change much.

"What a pity, you rely only on instinct—that is your weakness!"

The moment that thought settled in his mind, Feng Yi's inner breath shifted slightly; his gaze swept over the entire Primeval Plane, and he calmly said, "Open!"

As the sound faded, the Holy Mountain at the center of the Primeval Plane instantly underwent a tremendous transformation, turning directly into a Chaos Azure Lotus resembling a heavenly pillar.

The Azure Lotus took root in Chaos, as if connected to the origin of the whole universe; its branches and leaves reached into the boundless void, seeming to support the universe and countless planes.

At this moment, the Chaos Azure Lotus became part of the universe itself, akin to the Lotus of the World.

"This"

On the Holy Mountain.

Feng Yun Wuji stared blankly at the Holy Mountain beneath him, his eyes showing disbelief.

I didn't feel wrong before!

The holy mountain is actually a blue lotus!

He subconsciously looked around and discovered that most of the human powerhouses showed no surprise, clearly having known this all along.

"Is this the truth of the holy mountain that Senior Mengze spoke of?"

Hum—

Fengyun Wujii's thought had not yet fully settled, the Chaos blue lotus transformed from the holy mountain burst forth, endless Chaos divine light shot up into the heavens, sweeping across the entire universe, making the whole universe seem to return to the primordial chaos at the dawn of creation.

At the same time, above the Primordial Realm, ancient cities resembling giants sat at each node, swallowing and exhaling the essence of sun and moon, radiating brilliant divine light like bright stars, connected to the endless chaotic divine light emanating from the Chaos Azure Lotus, making the entire Primordial Realm a unified whole.

In that moment, the Primordial Realm seemed to come alive, with the Chaos Azure Lotus as its core and the giant cities as its meridians, forming a supreme great formation.

Boom

As the great formation formed, a vast surge of vital energy shot into the sky and merged into Feng Yi's body.

In an instant, the vital energy of the entire Primordial Realm directly linked with Feng Yi, causing his aura to rapidly climb.

At the same time, as his vital energy merged with the Primordial Realm, countless insights arose in Feng Yi's mind, deepening his grasp of the Balance Law somewhat.

Feng Yi felt no surprise about this.

The Primordial Realm itself was derived from the power of the Four Holy Beasts, and the Four Holy Beasts are part of the Balance Law, being manifestations of that part of the Balance Law.

Now Feng Yi has both integrated the power of the Four Holy Beasts and, using the great formation he deduced, merged with the origin of the Primordial Realm, naturally equating to mastering a portion of the Balance Law.

Hum

As his vital energy merged with the Primordial Realm, in Feng Yi's eyes the transcendent white light of destruction that spanned the river of time trembled slightly, his vital energy instantly dropping a bit, as if part of his origin had been stripped away.

"Indeed, the Balance Law has only instinct, no self-consciousness; as I master more of the Balance Law, the backlash force of the Great Dao will grow weaker!"

Boom

With a stretch of his hand, an ancient, heavy stone bridge rose from the Primordial Realm and landed in Feng Yi's hand.

The Heavenly Stele Profound Law operated within his body, boundless power emerging from Feng Yi and directly merging into the Heaven-Reaching Death Bridge.

The next moment, the Heaven-Reaching Death Bridge rapidly expanded, forming a colossal stone bridge spanning the cosmic galaxy, emanating a silent, ancient, immortal vital energy, as if unchanged for billions of years.

Boom

At the moment the Heaven-Reaching Death Bridge took shape, a white light filled with endless destructive intent suddenly appeared, as if reaching out from the river of time, covering past and future, unstoppable and unblockable.

However, at this time the Heaven-Reaching Death Bridge stood like a dam upon the river of time; whether attacks came from the past or the future, none could cross this stone bridge.

At this moment, the power levels of both had already surpassed the spacetime river of this universe.

Rumble

The white light of destruction fell directly onto the Heaven-Reaching Death Bridge, endless destructive light constantly colliding with the ancient, weathered bridge body, causing all vision to vanish before everyone's eyes.

In an instant, the myriad planes of the universe continually trembled, even the river of time began to destabilize, raising towering waves.

Above the Primordial Realm.

Primordial-level human powerhouses stood upon the Holy Mountain and within the various ancient cities, solemnly gazing at the Heaven-Reaching Death Bridge beyond the Primordial Realm.

Feeling that terrifying aftershock that made one tremble, all human powerhouses became as if facing a great enemy.

They could sense that, had it not been for the supreme treasure of the Fuxi Supreme God blocking that white light, the entire Primordial Realm would likely have been reduced to dust beneath that white light.

That was a supreme attack even more terrifying than the power of a Supreme God!

Boom

After the vast fluctuations resembling the world's destruction, an endless energy storm swept across the entire universe, causing the whole universe to tremble.

In the ocean of light and the abyss of darkness, light and dark Supreme Gods glanced with flickering eyes at the collision site that made their hearts palpitate, inevitably giving rise to a hint of fear.

That was a terrifying attack capable of truly annihilating these Supreme Gods!

At this moment, the light and dark Supreme Gods gave rise to an unprecedented destructive intent toward the Primordial Realm's Supreme God.

After an unknown period, the endless destructive fluctuations subsided, and the Heaven-Reaching Death Bridge spanning the cosmic void returned to its original size, standing atop Feng Yi's head.

At this time, Feng Yi's aura was somewhat wan, yet his eyes shone unusually bright, with yin-yang fish intertwined at the depths of his pupils constantly shifting, his comprehension of the Balance Law advancing another notch.

Boom

Just then, a roaring sound rang out again; from the origin deep in the universe, a vast law rose, accompanied by another white light radiating endless destructive intent.

Seeing this, the black-and-white yin-yang fish in Feng Yi's eyes shifted, and his aura began to undergo subtle adjustments.

Hum

The Chaos Azure Lotus flew to Feng Yi's head, linking with his vital energy and simultaneously connecting with the origin of the entire universe, as if supporting the whole universe.

Roar!

Chant!

Cry!

Howl!

Four beast cries—either deep and resonant, clear and lofty, distant and mournful, or fierce and violent—rang out; the figures of the Four Spirit Holy Beasts emerged from Feng Yi's body, surrounding his sides and blending with his aura.

At the same time, the ancient cities across the Primordial Realm lit up with brilliant divine light, forming a supreme great formation that also linked with Feng Yi's vital energy.

In an instant, Feng Yi's whole being seemed to become part of the Balance Law, his aura perfectly merging with the origin of the universe.

With the aid of the Chaos Azure Lotus, the Four Spirit Holy Beasts, and the Primordial Realm together with his understanding of the Balance Law, Feng Yi now mastered a portion of the Balance Law, becoming part of the universe's operation.

Hum

As Feng Yi's aura changed, the white light filled with endless destructive intent trembled and then remained stationary, for a moment seeming to have lost its target.

Although the Balance Law is the fundamental operation of this universe and can be called the supreme law within it, it cannot be overcome.

But it possesses only the instinct of the Great Dao, lacking self-consciousness and subjective judgment.

Now Feng Yi, by various means, seems to have become part of the Balance Law, thus depriving it of a target for backlash.

After an unknown period, the universe shuddered as if hearing an unwilling roar; the next moment, the white light of endless destructive intent dissipated into nothing, as if it had never appeared.

Seeing this, a hint of smile appeared in Feng Yi's eyes, then his heart stirred and his figure vanished directly.

At the summit of the Holy Mountain.

The heavens and earth blurred for a moment, and Feng Yi's figure stepped out from the void.

At this time, his temperament continually shifted—sometimes gentle and natural, sometimes cold and ruthless—as if his very spirit had split.

Seeing this, the White Tiger Supreme's eyes showed a hint of worry, and he hurried forward a step, saying: "Supreme God, are you alright?"

"No problem!"

Feng Yi shook their head and said in a calm tone: "It's merely that I have not yet fully mastered the balance law, resulting in a stalemate. In the coming time I will enter seclusion to fully master the balance law; you will temporarily take charge of the primordial affairs."

Yes, Lord God!

Upon hearing Feng Yi's words, the White Tiger Supreme hastily performed a salute, saying: "Lord God, please rest assured in your seclusion; we will handle the primordial affairs, so you need not worry."

The White Tiger Supreme fully understood that the foundation of the primordial era now lay before them in the form of Fuxi, the Lord God, and naturally knew what they should do.

Hmm.

Feng Yi nodded, then with a thought, their figure vanished from the spot.

Inside the cave dwelling.

Feng Yi sat cross-legged in place, their mind sinking into the obscure, with the balance law penetrating the essence of the cosmic origin, as if connected to the myriad Dao origins of the entire universe, continuously enduring the scouring of billions of years of Great Dao information from the universe.

For now, he has temporarily achieved balance with the universe's balance law, having neither fully mastered the balance law nor lost his own will from being directly scoured by the cosmic origin.

In the coming time, Feng Yi will fully master the balance law of this realm, become the controller of this universe, thereby turning the universe into a city and completing his Stone Person King's path.

"Am I now a special united Dao state?"

As thoughts turned in his mind, a name suddenly surfaced in Feng Yi's mind: Hongjun!

Of course, not the Hongjun of the Realm of Longevity, but the Dao Ancestor Hongjun from the Investiture of the Gods Universe.

Now Feng Yi's state is somewhat similar to that Hongjun, except that what he needs to suppress is not the Heavenly Dao, but this universe's unique balance law.

"Fortunately, with the aid of the Chaos Azure Lotus and the Four Sacred Spirit Beasts, otherwise it would truly not be easy to fully master this realm's balance law!"

As thoughts turned in his mind, Feng Yi sank his mind completely into his body, connecting with the cosmic origin law of the entire universe, both comprehending the mysteries of the balance law and fully mastering it, while also contemplating his own unique Stone Person King's path of turning the universe into a city.
