Chapter 97: Stop pretending!
Di Jun said, "That's why we need to find more people. Don't worry, Feng Bo, He Bo, Hou Tu, and Queen Mother of the West are all contacted, and they too are willing to take a gamble."
Tai Yi frowned and said, "Tell me honestly, is the Pangu world really just a world that simple?"
Di Jun shook his head and replied, "Of course not… There are countless beings born out of Chaos, but have you seen any Chaos beings that have only awakened recently?"
Tai Yi shook his head, "Those that should have awakened have done so already. Those who are late, I've only heard of this one."
Di Jun nodded and said, "Yes, just this one. Do you know why Pan Gu was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for the sake of everyone?"
Tai Yi shook his head again.
Di Jun said, "Back then, I gazed at the divine gate from deep within the Chaos. I saw an embryo fly out from the gate and land in this Chaos."
"Pan Gu?!" Tai Yi exclaimed in shock.
Di Jun nodded and said, "Exactly. While Pan Gu was gestating, I sat by his side and communicated with him. He said he came from the other side of the divine gate and wanted to go home... but he could no longer return. His body was damaged, the energy within the Chaos was mixed and impure, unable to support his recovery to a fully empowered state. Moreover, once hatched, he would have a lifespan of no more than three years... three years is not enough to do anything.
Therefore, he decided to sacrifice himself and forge the most powerful warship in this world.
As long as we help him fix the ship's flaws, he could take us through the divine gate, to the far shore of Chaos."
"The far shore of Chaos, does Chaos really have a shore?" Tai Yi murmured.
He and Di Jun were different; they were not among those who had simmered in Chaos for the longest time but were instead among the earliest to awaken within Chaos.
When they were born, they were not particularly powerful, but over the years, both men, with their extraordinary talents and wisdom, had reached the end of the road for the strong in Chaos.
They were well aware that if they could not leave Chaos, everything would come to a standstill.
Ultimately, Tai Yi decided to follow Di Jun, and the brothers joined hands to enter the Pangu world, fixing that rickety cosmic ship within Chaos.
Later on, Di Jun, Tai Yi, and a large group of old friends, totaling three thousand, entered the Pangu world. Each took on a role, each controlled one pathway, and the Three Thousand Great Dao were actually three thousand flaws. The day that the Three Thousand Great Dao were established, the whole world was reborn amidst resounding humming sounds, within the resonance of the Dao, and burst forth with endless divine radiance.
On that day, the collision of the Three Thousand Great Dao sparked the evolution of countless Dao in the cosmos, and many small worlds were born from these collisions...
Di Jun and the others formally became part of this world, the Three Thousand Saints!
And Tang Sanzang was one of those who entered the Pangu world at that time.
Back then, he was clueless and followed them in. After hearing Di Jun and others call themselves Primordial Chaos Demon Gods, he too started calling himself a Primordial Chaos Demon God...
Later on, Tang Sanzang's unique abilities erupted, and he harnessed various unforeseen powers that overwhelmed the Three Thousand Demon Gods, thankfully he was only slightly mischievous and a bit selfish, and did not commit great evils.
Importantly, everyone discovered that Tang Sanzang's thought processes were different from the people of this world. Things that others believed should not be done, he did with ease, and what everyone thought was permissible, he often found too excessive. Because of this, many conflicts arose.
At the same time, some bad characters began to take advantage of this situation and started duping Tang Sanzang into doing things he thought were acceptable, but the locals deemed impermissible.
Consequently, there were incidents like him entering to take the inner garments of Queen Mother of the West while she was bathing...
Who took advantage of Hou Tu's absence to run off with her palace...
Who replaced the walking stick of the Eastern Prince with a little twig...
Who plucked out the River God's beard...
And so on, a series of pranks kept happening, leaving everyone so frustrated they were practically grabbing sticks to hit some bald guys every single day. What was even more depressing was that they couldn't even beat the bald guys. Even when the bald guys realized they were in the wrong and didn't fight back, they still couldn't catch up!

This made the Three Thousand Demon Gods both love and hate him...
It wasn't until the arrival of All Saints that the Pan Gu World faced a major crisis, and then people took turns persuading Tang Sanzang, tricking him into the River of Time as the so-called savior, a backup plan.
Thus, Tang Sanzang embarked on his journey to the West...
And then he arrived at today.
All his memories burst forth in his mind like a tide and then roared back, merging into Tang Sanzang's soul...
At that moment, Tang Sanzang remembered everything.
...
Meanwhile, outside.
Hum!
The fleeing River God suddenly stopped, turned his head sharply toward Tang Sanzang's direction, and frowned, "Damn it, who unsealed him!"
Qiang Liang, who was playing hide-and-seek, also looked in Tang Sanzang's direction with a gloomy face and said, "Crap, all that busywork for nothing, here we go again!"
On the Blue Star, a little girl looked up at the stars and sighed, "I told you, instead of sending him away, I should have just beaten him to death!" After speaking, the little girl's face turned crimson...
In Chaos, with a serene pace, Laozi rode his green ox, followers yelling and chasing behind him but never catching up. Laozi suddenly looked back toward Tang Sanzang's whereabouts and sighed, "Ah... I had just relaxed for a few years... And now this!"
Somewhere in Chaos, the Leader of Tongtian glanced in the direction of Tang Sanzang, then drew his sword: "The game is over!"
The next moment, Sword Qi swept across a million miles, a scroll unfolded in Chaos, screams were heard non-stop, and Holy Blood dyed Chaos red.
The Great River God King wailed in despair, "You are not Twelve-Star Saints, you deceived us, you tricksters!"
The Leader of Tongtian, sitting on the Kui ox, said indifferently, "I am Pan Gu, the splendor of the Pan Gu World is beyond what you rabble can comprehend? The gap between us, you've never understood it."
Some asteroid in the Pan Gu World trembled, blood gushing out, Nether River Ancestor walked out, "I feel it, the Saints are back... Damn it, what about the great calamity? Not one died, is it that hard to become a Saint?" Then he charged into a nearby Star Domain. The people roaming the Chaos world looking for Sage's Dao Fruits suddenly filled with wailing...
In the depths of the starry space of the Pan Gu World, atop a floating mountain range resembling a gigantic earthworm stood a huge worm with a wide mouth chattering, "Whoa, look who's joined us. Good of you to come. I'm telling you guys, we really don't have any grudges. You see, from the birth of Chaos, I've watched you all hatch.
Back then, you were just a tiny chick with eyebrows. Don't glare at me, I'm telling the truth... Whoops, you're angry now.
Hey little demon, don't laugh. Where were we? Oh right, thirty trillion years ago... I was saying, what are you doing? Why are you getting mad? Why are your eyes turning red?
