Hu Le ascended the mountain, suppressing several fragments of the true spirits of chaotic gods and demons along the way, and overcoming numerous dangers such as divine fire and lightning.

One day, he finally arrived at the last gate of the Mysterious Female.

At this moment, many powerful individuals were already standing in front of the gate.

Standing on the left was an old Taoist priest with gray hair and a bamboo cane in his hand; he was none other than Hongjun Laozu.

Auspicious clouds unfurled above the head of the Hongjun Ancestor, and a Creation Jade Disc spun above the Three Flowers, radiating immeasurable brilliance.

Behind him stood the Three Pure Ones, who also released auspicious clouds and flowers. The cloud light merged with the auspicious clouds of Hongjun, and the immortal light and auspicious energy illuminated the heavens and the universe.

Xuan Du Daoist, Antarctic Immortal, and Duo Bao each stood behind their teacher.

Not far from them, Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of earth immortals, and the Queen Mother of the West each stood on an auspicious cloud, revealing their spiritual treasures to protect themselves, and closing their eyes to concentrate.

Opposite to Hongjun Laozu, Taiyi and his wife stood side by side, each displaying their Three Flowers and Five Qi. A Chaos Bell rotated above Taiyi's head, emitting a series of melodious chimes.

Fuxi and his sister, Dijun and his wife, Houtu and Xuanming, and more than a dozen other powerful beings stood behind them.

The gods, radiating auspicious light and aura, coalesced into a single entity, standing in opposition to Hongjun and the others, each occupying a portion of the world.

Seeing this, Hu Le secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

We finally arrived in time.

"I have met the teacher and his wife."

He rode on auspicious clouds to Taiyi and his wife, bowed and greeted them.

"You should step aside and wait for the right opportunity."

Taiyi nodded slightly to Hu Le without saying anything more.

Hu Le agreed, walked behind them, and bowed to Fuxi and Nuwa beside them in greeting...

Following the example of the others, Hu Le stood still, closed his eyes, and focused his mind, secretly regulating his spiritual energy.

After a long while, several more people arrived one after another. Among them, Hu Le was not only very familiar with one of them, but had also had some dealings with him before. He was none other than the Styx Ancestor...

"Enough! The time has come, you may go now."

Hongjun Daoist suddenly opened his eyes and gave an order to Taiqing Daoist behind him.

Taiqing Daoist nodded and walked side by side with Yuqing Daoist to the gate of the Mysterious Female.

At this moment, Taiyi also went out and came to Taiqing Daoist, nodding to the two of them.

The three creation treasures—the Chaos Bell, the Taiji Diagram, and the Pangu Banner—rose almost simultaneously above the three people on auspicious clouds. After arriving in mid-air, the three treasures drew closer and closer, and the five-colored light emanating from them became increasingly intense.

As the treasures gathered together, endless waves began to rise from the depths of the River of Destiny. At the source of that river, where all time and space were frozen, a chaotic divine light suddenly flew out.

This light was incredibly thick, yet incomparably sharp, cutting through the barriers of time and space, and flowing upstream against the river of fate.

Suddenly, they appeared before the Gate of the Mysterious Female.

Taiqing Daoist stepped forward and grabbed the divine light in his hand. The divine light twisted and changed, eventually transforming into a giant axe that could split the heavens and earth.

With the three supreme treasures gathered, the three activated their secret technique and finally summoned the phantom of a heaven-opening axe from the source of the River of Destiny.

As one of Pangu's primordial spirits, Taiqing Daoren, whose cultivation of Daoist arts was closest to that of Pangu, picked up the Heaven-Opening Axe and lightly slashed at the Gate of Mysterious Female from afar.

A chaotic axe light flew out and silently struck the Gate of the Mysterious Female.

The once incredibly sturdy Gate of the Mysterious Female was now as thin as a sheet of paper, easily cleaved open by this axe.

At the same time, the Heaven-Opening Axe in the hand of the Taoist Taiqing also disintegrated, transforming back into three supreme treasures, which flew back to the heads of their respective owners.

"Walk!"

Taiyi shouted and stepped out through the door.

Taiqing Daoist and Yuqing Daoist followed closely behind. The rest of the group saw that the crack on the Gate of Mysterious Female was rapidly closing automatically, so they did not dare to delay and all rushed to the back of the gate in their escape light.

In just a few breaths, everyone outside the door had vanished.

Meanwhile, the Gate of the Mysterious Female was closed again.

Just then, Daoist Hongyun arrived late. Seeing that the gate was tightly closed, he raised his hand and emitted a red light, which was his signature divine power, the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Divine Sand.

A ball of red light, wrapped in divine sand, washed back and forth across the Gate of the Mysterious Female, yet the Gate of the Mysterious Female remained standing, showing no sign of opening.

A short while later.

Daoist Hongyun waved his hand, dispelling his supernatural powers, and sighed inwardly: This is fate's will, what can be done...?

Next, more than ten innate saints came and tried to attack the Gate of Mysterious Female, but they were all blocked outside the gate, just like Daoist Hongyun.

In the end, they could only seek their own destiny within this eighth level.

In fact, the fact that they were able to reach this eighth level already surpassed 99% of the cultivators in the primordial world.

Just like Hu Le's eldest disciple, Guan Kong, who is still wandering around the fourth level. Despite having the top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Twelve-Petaled Pure World White Lotus, he is still blocked outside the Gate of Mysterious Female on the fifth level due to his insufficient cultivation.

After Hu Le entered the ninth level, he found that Taiyi and the others had long since disappeared from his sight, and he was the only one left in the vast and boundless primordial energy.

At this moment, because the tide has truly begun, these energies are no longer as tranquil as before, and are like a storm sweeping across the ocean, stirring up endless waves.

Hu Le found himself in the eye of the storm, with countless waves of primordial energy crashing down upon him. He quickly raised the Kan Di Gen Kun Banner above his head, sending down streaks of seven-colored light to protect himself.

Just as he regained his footing, a hazy purple aura flashed by not far ahead.

He also had sharp eyes; even if it was only for a fleeting moment, he still managed to see the true nature of that thing.

It was clearly a wisp of primordial purple energy.

"Alas! What a pity!"

Seeing that it was too late to catch up, Hu Le couldn't help but sigh in regret. But what's done is done, and what's missed is missed. No matter how much he regretted it, it was useless.

Next, he rode his escape light and began to wander in the boundless tide of primordial energy.

Under the influence of the tides, the sky is nowhere to be seen above and the earth nowhere to be seen below. All directions are vast and boundless, and the secrets of heaven begin to become blurred. Everything can only be left to luck, or to one's own destiny and fate.

He flew forward for an unknown amount of time when, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a seven-colored ray of light.

He dared not delay, and quickly pointed to the right, sending out a primordial Yin-Yang chaotic divine light. In the blink of an eye, the divine light had already wrapped around that thing and rolled back.

Hu Le grabbed the object and looked at it intently. He saw a chaotic primordial embryo suspended in a cloud of misty clouds.

Within that primordial embryo, a vibrant purple Dao energy was being nurtured.

Even through the membrane of the primordial embryo, Hu Le could still vaguely sense an aura of utmost purity, supreme dignity, and unparalleled nobility emanating from that purple aura…
