After collecting another fragment of Pangu's primordial spirit within Buzhou Mountain, Hu Le rode away on auspicious clouds.
Only after Hu Le had completely disappeared from sight did those people breathe a sigh of relief.
They looked at each other, and in the blink of an eye, they all realized what was happening and rushed towards the fragments of enlightenment.
Although the Enlightenment Stone exploded, the fragments did not scatter too far, nor were they reduced to dust. Judging from the appearance of the fragments, they seemed capable of being pieced back together.
They immediately got to work, and it took them several days to barely piece the rubble back together to its original shape.
At first, they were quite pleased to see that the Tai Chi symbol was still there.
However, after the stones were pieced together, and looking at the pattern again, it was quickly discovered that the picture seemed to have lost some of its original charm, just like a person who had lost their soul.
They hurriedly focused their divine senses on the pattern and finally discovered that it had indeed become an ordinary pattern, no longer possessing its previous mystique.
"Damn it!"
Some were furious, while others were devastated...
Hu Le arrived at a mountain peak, sat down cross-legged, and began to refine the fragment of Pangu's Primordial Spirit.
With his previous experience and his already sufficient cultivation level, and since this fragment was not large, refining it was quite simple.
He quickly integrated it into the incomplete primordial spirit imprint in his sea of consciousness.
With the addition of this fragment, the Pangu Primordial Spirit Imprint became one step more complete.
When this mark is fully perfected in the future, he can completely refine it and become the Primordial Spirit of Pangu.
By then, he would truly be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Pangu and the Three Pure Ones, and might even be able to compete with Taiqing Daoren for the title of Pangu's leader...
After Hu Le refined this fragment, his connection to the Pangu Primordial Spirit fragment strengthened once again.
He completely released the aura of Pangu and focused his mind on the imprint of Pangu's primordial spirit. In the darkness, he sensed the existence of a fragment of the primordial spirit.
He immediately rushed there without stopping.
After flying for a while, a long, rolling river appeared below the auspicious clouds. The river meandered and twisted, with its waters flowing and waves churning.
He had already arrived above the Yellow River.
In the darkness, a fragment of Pangu's primordial spirit was hidden in the Yellow River.
He descended on auspicious clouds and began to fly upstream along the Yellow River, heading towards its source.
Before long, he arrived at the top of a canyon.
This is the most turbulent section of the Yellow River, with steep cliffs on both sides. The cliffs are as smooth as mirrors, as if carved by a knife and axe. No vines grow here, only a layer of damp moss. Even monkeys and apes would find it difficult to climb.
And just below the water lies the largest water eye in the Yellow River, a bottomless abyss that is said to lead directly to the Four Seas and the Ruins of Guixu.
The fragments of Pangu that Hu Le sensed seemed to be in the water eye below.
Hu Le dispersed the auspicious clouds, stepped onto the surface of the Yellow River, raised his hand and pointed, and the river water immediately parted to both sides, revealing a path leading directly to the water eye at the bottom of the river.
Hu Le arrived at the water's edge and discovered a crystal palace standing above it.
Hu Le was not surprised by this situation.
Every water eye in a river is a place with the most concentrated spiritual energy, and it is often occupied by some enlightened aquatic creatures who use the spiritual energy in the water eye to cultivate.
Hu Le arrived in front of the Crystal Palace, but without knocking, he flicked his sleeve, and the enormous Crystal Palace moved smoothly away from above the water eye, instantly revealing the water eye below.
The aquatic creatures inside the Crystal Palace felt a jolt, and some even lost their balance and fell to the ground.
The master of the Crystal Palace was a yellow dragon, the thirteenth son of the North Sea Dragon King, named Ao Yong, whose status was considered noble among the aquatic creatures.
After all, the Yellow River is one of the largest rivers in the ancient world, and it's really hard to control a river that has a bad origin.
Ao Yong was cultivating in the palace when the Crystal Palace moved, which startled him awake. He quickly ended his cultivation and stormed out of the palace.
He thought someone was coming to cause him trouble, so he grabbed a sword and rushed out of the Crystal Palace.
The Turtle Prime Minister and the Shrimp and Crab Generals followed suit.
A group of people walked out of the Crystal Palace and soon spotted Hu Le standing by the water eye.
"Hey! Where did this scoundrel come from! How dare he cause trouble for this prince!" Ao Yong shouted.
Hu Le turned around at the sound, and Ao Yong also saw Hu Le's face clearly at the same time. Suddenly, he felt a shiver run through his body and stood there dumbfounded.
Clearly, he had already recognized Hu Le's identity.
Of course, he never actually met Hu Le in person.
The reason he was able to recognize Hu Le was mainly because he had also traveled through the prehistoric world and had seen Hu Le's statue among the human race.
"Emperor... Your Majesty..."
Ao Yong's voice trembled slightly, mainly because Hu Le's status was far too noble. Not to mention him, even his father, the Dragon King of the North Sea, would have to be extremely respectful to Hu Le.
However, he quickly realized what was happening, forced his trembling legs to move, and jogged over to Hu Le, where he knelt down on the ground.
"Little Dragon greets Your Majesty, may Your Majesty enjoy boundless blessings and peace!"
Hu Le glanced at Ao Yong. "You actually recognize me. You do have some sense. I'm going to venture into this water eye. Are you going to stop me?"
Ao Yong shook his head repeatedly: "How dare I! How dare I... Your Majesty, please do as you please..."
Hu Le nodded slightly, took a step, and entered the water eye.
After Hu Le's figure disappeared from everyone's sight, it took Ao Yong a long time to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and get up from the ground.
The Turtle Prime Minister led the group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals to approach.
"Your Highness! May I ask who that person was just now?" Prime Minister Turtle, as Ao Yong's confidant, stepped forward to ask on behalf of everyone.
In the North Sea Dragon Palace, everyone knows that the thirteenth prince, Ao Yong, is the most arrogant and domineering one in the palace.
In the past, even in front of the Dragon King of the North Sea, he had never been so humble and respectful.
Ao Yong then realized that his actions just now seemed to have caused him to lose face in front of his subordinates, so he coughed twice to try to save face.
"Hmph! Who else could he be? Of course, he is the master of the Heavenly Court, the current Human Emperor, known as the Dongxuan Emperor, the true successor of Pangu!"
"Ah! It's him!!!"
The Turtle Prime Minister and his companions were not some ignorant mountain demons; of course they had heard of the name of the Mysterious God.
They also understood why Ao Yong had been so humble just now.
It turns out it was this person all along!
Let alone Ao Yong, the Dragon King's crown prince, even the Dragon King himself would probably have to behave himself and not dare to act recklessly in front of this man.
"Haha... I never thought I'd live to see the Emperor in person, this is truly..."
One of the Yaksha generals suddenly laughed.
He seemed quite proud of himself, judging from his words.
The shrimp soldiers and crab generals standing to the side were stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded repeatedly, as if they too felt a sense of pride...
