#166 - Chapter 166: Opening the Heavens

Of these three thousand Innate Gods and Demons, two were the most special and incomparably powerful. One was a God and Demon nurtured from a giant egg at the very center. It surprisingly resembled a willow tree, but countless small world spaces were shattering around it. You surmised that this should be the Innate God and Demon who controlled the Law of Space. Of course, besides this powerful God and Demon, you also saw a God and Demon on the west side accompanied by a boundless river of blood. You guessed that this should be Luo Hou, who would later contend with Hongjun.

"The three thousand Gods and Demons have been born. What about Pangu?"

Just as you were thinking this, you heard a deafening roar from the east of the boundless darkness. A giant egg was also being nurtured there, even larger than all three thousand Gods and Demons combined. This shocked and enraged the three thousand Gods and Demons. They prided themselves on being the noblest and most powerful beings in the world, so how could there be something even more noble and powerful than them in this Chaos?

With a bang, the giant egg in the east shattered, and a giant ten thousand zhang tall was born! He held a giant axe in his hand and stood upon a Thirty-Three Heaven Creation Lotus Platform, radiating an unparalleled aura. If the three thousand Gods and Demons were considered noble, then the aura emanating from this person was the source of the Primordial Purple Qi, the foundation of Chaos, far more noble than the three thousand Gods and Demons.

You knew this was Pangu. You watched in awe, for this was a god who created your world. To be able to see Pangu in person was of great significance to all cultivators.

"It's Pangu! He's born! He's going to destroy Chaos and create a world! We must kill him quickly, otherwise, once he succeeds in opening the heavens, we will all be killed!"

An Innate God and Demon shouted. This person was the Great Strength God and Demon, who controlled the Law of Great Strength, was immensely large, had two giant horns on his head, and a body ten thousand zhang tall.

These Innate Gods and Demons were born with knowledge. At the moment of their birth, a consciousness informed them of the meaning of their existence: to prevent Pangu from opening the heavens.

Because the so-called opening of the heavens was to destroy Chaos and create a world with vitality.

And these Innate Gods and Demons were nurtured by Chaos. Destroying Chaos was destroying them, so they were natural enemies of Pangu.

"Kill! We control the Three Thousand Great Daos. We don't believe we can't kill Pangu!" Another Innate God and Demon shouted. This person was shrouded in poisonous mist. It was the Heavenly Poison God and Demon, who controlled the Law of Poison!

"That's right, the Great Dao nurtured us. Our existence is to prevent Pangu from opening the heavens. We are mortal enemies of Pangu." This was the Heavenly Fire God and Demon, who controlled the Law of Heavenly Fire, speaking.

Subsequently, the three thousand Innate Gods and Demons, filled with overwhelming killing intent, rushed towards the boundless darkness of the east. They were going to besiege Pangu!

"Chaos has no life. Only by opening the heavens can there be a glimmer of life in the Great Dao. The general trend is mighty. You are only seeking death by hindering me." Pangu coldly replied, looking at the Gods and Demons attacking him. Then, he drew the axe from his waist and swung it forward fiercely.

In an instant, a thousand Gods and Demons were directly cleaved to death by him!

Pangu killed a thousand Gods and Demons as if he were killing a group of ants, directly using the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe!

"How is this possible? How can you be so strong? We are children of the Great Dao, the most respected beings in the entire world. Why can you kill us so easily?" Some Innate Gods and Demons saw this scene and couldn't believe it. What noble beings they were!

But now, Pangu had cleaved and killed a thousand of them with one axe, hardly any better than ants.

Pangu didn't speak, and coldly cleaved out two more axes. These two axes directly cleaved and killed the remaining two thousand Innate Gods and Demons.

"Ah, ah, ah, ah!" Countless Innate Gods and Demons screamed miserably. They had just been born and were experiencing the greatest tribulation of death. They were killed by Pangu.

In the entire process, Pangu only swung three axes and killed all of these Innate Gods and Demons!

You were extremely surprised to see this scene, because in the myths and legends you had heard, the obstruction of the three thousand Innate Gods and Demons was a great tribulation for Pangu in the process of opening the heavens. But now it seemed that this was not the case. The three thousand Innate Gods and Demons were so easily cleaved to death by Pangu. On the one hand, you marveled that Pangu was indeed Pangu, his strength was indeed formidable and unique, but on the other hand, you felt that perhaps the ancient myths that had been passed down were wrong?

Just as you were thinking this, Pangu began to open the heavens. He raised the Heaven-Opening Axe and began to cleave at the boundless Chaos, axe after axe. His body began to expand violently, from ten thousand zhang to eighty thousand zhang, then to ten million zhang, and finally until he supported the boundless Chaos!

Each axe of Pangu was powerful enough to kill three thousand Innate Gods and Demons, but you saw Pangu cleaving axe after axe, but the entire Chaos remained calm. You felt the difficulty of Pangu opening the heavens.

In this way, perhaps it was ten thousand years, perhaps a million years, or even hundreds of millions of years, Pangu seemed tireless, mechanically cleaving forward axe after axe. Finally, after who knows how many axes were cleaved, the boundless Chaos was suddenly cleaved by him, revealing a vast expanse of white light. In the boundless darkness, white appeared, and light appeared.

A hint of joy appeared on Pangu's face. He stepped to the white light, then used his body to support the white light, and continued to cleave with the axe. Gradually, the white light became more and more, and the light became more and more. The boundless dark Chaos seemed to be cleaved open alive by Pangu, axe after axe.

"Is opening the heavens finally about to succeed?"

You thought to yourself. You observed the entire process of Pangu opening the heavens, and you sincerely felt the difficulty. Perhaps it was hundreds of millions of years of lonely years, Pangu tirelessly cleaved axe after axe, and hundreds of millions of years of persistence finally ushered in the dawn of opening the heavens.

But just as you were thinking this, an accident suddenly happened!

"Haha, Pangu! You want to open the heavens? Keep dreaming! We Innate Gods and Demons are immortal and indestructible beings. Did you think you killed us before? No! We were just temporarily dormant in the Great Dao of Chaos."

"We have been dormant in the Great Dao, waiting for this moment, waiting for your weakest moment. Now, after hundreds of millions of years of opening the heavens, you must be exhausted, right? I'd like to see how you fight me."

It was the three thousand Innate Gods and Demons who appeared. They were even more powerful than when they were first born. They were immortal and indestructible. As long as the Law of the Great Dao was not destroyed, they could not die.

After being killed by Pangu, they were resurrected in the Great Dao, but at the same time, they lay dormant and slowly grew stronger. Now, they were stronger than they were hundreds of millions of years ago. Now, they were joining forces to kill Pangu!

Moreover, Pangu had now reached his weakest moment!

Seeing this scene, you sighed. As expected, opening the heavens was not so easy. These three thousand Innate Gods and Demons were indeed Pangu's great tribulation. No one had thought that this group of people would be so cunning and insidious, and had been dormant in the Great Dao for hundreds of millions of years, coming to sneak attack at the moment when Pangu was about to succeed in opening the heavens.
