Chapter 3: Wandering in Chaos and Encountering Pangu

  Zhang Xue moved his sturdy legs and instantly rushed towards the congenital spiritual root he had just discovered at an unbelievable speed. Wherever he passed, the chaotic air retreated to both sides, stirring up the surrounding chaotic air, which surged non-stop, leaving a long, empty passage in the middle, like someone had divided the sea in two with majestic waves.

  Before long, it had traversed billions of miles and arrived at the side of the pre-heavenly spiritual root that was discovered earlier. It was a very beautiful small tree with dense, tiny leaves on its branches. The leaves were green and transparent, and one could see the internal structure clearly with the naked eye. Inside the small leaf blades, there were countless fine, green, thread-like gas flows flowing irregularly, emitting a faint, ethereal glow on the surface, full of mystery.

  The entire tree grows on a huge clod of earth, the clod is in a chaotic color and constantly absorbs the chaotic air around it to supply the tree and make it grow.

  This congenital spiritual root looks exactly the same as the tea tree in my previous life, only more beautiful and mysterious. There is a faint fragrance all around it, which makes people feel refreshed and concentrated when smelling it. It has a mystical power that makes people forget all their troubles, just like someone who feels the breath of nature in a deep mountain bamboo forest, quiet, peaceful and full of vitality.

  Looking at everything in front of him, he was still very satisfied with the appearance of this congenital spiritual root. It also came with a large piece of land, which was unknown whether it was the chaotic soil. If so, then he had made a fortune. After all, the chaotic soil was the best soil for planting congenital spiritual roots, with the effect of nurturing and nourishing all things.

  "With this congenital spiritual root, I can use it to make tea when I'm free, and find two servant girls to massage my legs. The feeling is indescribably wonderful, haha! For the sake of my future life, I'll work even harder!" As soon as he finished speaking, his mind locked onto the congenital spiritual root, and with a thought, a huge black hole appeared in front of him, instantly sucking the congenital spiritual root and the soil block into it.

  Only to see the chaotic space in the center of the soul, a gray light flashed, and the innate spiritual root appeared earlier, quietly floating in the space. Zhang Xue's consciousness also came here with it, and all the information about the space was completely known. "This is still my first time coming to my own space!"

  Here is the translation:

  In this place, everything is under Zhang Xue's control. He is the god of all things here, and he has absolute power over life and death. Everything in this space lives or dies because of him. Anyone who enters this space will be marked with Zhang Xue's soul imprint, which will slowly influence them to become completely loyal to the master of the imprint. As time passes, the imprint will merge with their soul, making it impossible for anyone to escape. For the rest of their life, they will devotedly serve their master without any self-interest.

  Looking at the empty space, Zhang Xue's playful nature was stirred up. With a flicker of her mind, the chaotic energy within the space surged and slowly gathered into two large masses.

  In no time, Godzilla from the previous life appeared on TV, and on the other side, his old rival Ultraman came along. The two giant creatures didn't say a word and started punching each other. What a thrilling fight! You punch me once, I punch you once, you use Black Tiger Heart Grab, I use Sea Bottom Moon Catch, we're entangled in a fierce battle. And our protagonist is watching from above, what a delightful sight!

  Before long, the two of them seemed to have lost consciousness again, and the chaotic air around them began to surge once more. One by one, strange beasts and Ultramen joined in without stopping, turning a one-on-one fight into a group brawl. In the end, even Gundam from anime, space battleships, Final Weapon She, Magical Girl Warriors, Death Gods, and Naruto joined in. As a result, an epic battle royale unfolded: Gundam vs Godzilla, Magical Girl Warriors vs Ultramen, Death Gods vs Naruto, and Final Weapon She vs Space Battleships. Zhang Xue's heart was racing with excitement as the soul of an otaku burned infinitely within him, filled with lustful thoughts as he watched various anime characters engage in a massive free-for-all.

  Time flies by, and after the playful nature has faded away, I once again set foot on a chaotic journey.

  Chaos is not counted in years, and the fleeting hundred yuan will pass quickly. A moment of calculation is 1 million and 80 thousand years, and one yuan is equivalent to 12 calculations, 12 million, 9 thousand and 6 hundred years. Along the way, Zhang Xue obtained many innate spiritual roots, innate spiritual treasures, and some chaotic stones, chaotic refined iron, chaotic soil, and other materials for refining equipment. Unfortunately, he didn't know how to refine equipment, so he could only store them in his own space for now, waiting until he learned how to refine equipment before taking them out to use. It's worth knowing that the materials in Chaos are all top-notch, and after the creation of the world, it would be hard to find them even if one wanted to.

  Most of the congenital spiritual roots found had more or less soil on them, and Zhang Xue put them all together to connect the soil. Then, she used all the soil she found to expand the area of the land. In the center, a large pit was dug and filled with the obtained Chaos Water, thus creating a super miniature continent with an area as large as the Earth. Although this continent may be smaller than an ant in Zhang Xue's eyes now, there is no way around it since her body is too big. However, after transforming into a human form and carefully modifying it by finding more spiritual roots, this place will become a perfect home - a world entirely composed of congenital spiritual roots, with rivers, land, mountains, and everything else being products of Chaos, simply a perfect home.

  As of now, there are only thirty or so congenital spiritual roots on the mainland, scattered and sparse, making it seem desolate. However, fortunately, there are many varieties, which can be carefully cultivated in the future to make them flourish. For example, congenital purple bamboo can be cultivated into a purple bamboo forest, chaotic purple gold grapes can be cultivated into a grape plantation, congenital seven-color rainbow lotus can fill an entire pool... and so on. With time, these congenital spiritual roots can all be nurtured into something magnificent. Furthermore, with the continuous addition of new congenital spiritual roots, this small world will become more and more beautiful. At that time, eating congenital spiritual fruits every day and drinking wine brewed from congenital spiritual roots will truly be a life like that of the gods.

  Among these spiritual roots, Zhang Xue liked the innate Starry Sky Grass and Chaotic Moonlight Tree the most. These two innate spiritual roots were discovered together, without any special location, and can be said to have no use for Zhang Xue's current foundation. The reason he likes them is because they are extremely beautiful. The Starry Sky Grass and Moonlight Tree live up to their names, emitting faint starlight and hazy moonlight that is very beautiful. Especially at night, it's like countless small sprites flashing with faint starlight flying around the earth and forest.

  Zhang Xue was shocked by their beauty when he first saw these two innate spiritual roots in the chaos. In the gray and misty chaos, countless starlight particles flew back and forth between the earth and trees, how beautiful is that? How shocking is that?

  Moreover, later discoveries made Zhang Xue like them even more. These two congenital spiritual roots were extremely easy to cultivate. Just find a place to plant them and they would grow into a patch after some time had passed. Their reproduction speed was so fast that it didn't seem like congenital spiritual roots at all. Compared to other congenital spiritual roots, the time they took to cultivate was much shorter. Of course, this was also because they were faster than congenital spiritual roots. If compared to non-congenital spiritual roots, then they would be much slower. After all, they were still congenital spiritual roots! So there was no need to worry that they would become rampant. This might be the reason why they couldn't compare to other congenital spiritual roots. But in exchange, they had obtained a reproduction speed that other congenital spiritual roots found hard to match.

  As for the congenital spiritual treasure, Congenital Treasure, Zhang Xue had refined a few more just now. However, due to the long refining time and her eagerness to find the Congenital Spiritual Root, she put them all away in her space and didn't plan on touching them again until later when she was free to slowly refine each one.

  Zhang Xue wandered aimlessly in the boundless and endless chaos, going wherever he pleased, and whenever he saw anything, he would pick it up. Every place he walked was spotless, without even a speck of dust. In his mind, wasn't dust also a product of chaos? Hadn't he heard that everything produced by chaos is a masterpiece? If this were to be passed down to future generations, they would have to shed blood and tears for the sake of this single speck of dust.

  As time passed, the chaotic aura around Zhang Xue grew thicker and more abundant, and the heavenly treasures he obtained also increased in number. The small world within his soul became increasingly vibrant with life energy. The original pre-heavenly purple bamboo had transformed into a small bamboo forest, while the pre-heavenly seven-colored lotus had already filled half of the pool. Most astonishing was that the chaotic moonlight tree had developed into a large forest, and the pre-heavenly starry grass grew everywhere. With the continuous absorption of pre-heavenly spirit roots, the life energy of the small world became increasingly abundant.

  As he delved deeper into the chaos, Zhang Xue suddenly felt a faint ripple coming from ahead, and the chaotic energy around him also began to fluctuate. With curiosity in his heart, he quickened his pace towards the center of the ripples.

  As it got closer to the center of the fluctuation, the Chaotic Air grew thicker. Before long, the dense Chaotic Air parted, and the truth finally appeared before their eyes. In front of them stood a gigantic egg, with a huge green lotus under it. The surrounding Chaotic Air was constantly being absorbed by the egg. Of course, this egg's enormity was only relative to other gods and demons; in Zhang Xue's eyes, it was only about the size of her palm. Now she could confirm that this egg must be Pangu, and she might also be one of the largest gods and demons in the Chaos. Haven't you seen that Pangu is now only the size of my palm?

  Met Pangu, Zhang Xue no longer had the mood to continue traveling and treasure hunting, wanted to stay and wait for Pangu's birth to get familiar with him, so that when Pangu opens the sky, he can avoid me. After all, I don't know how powerful Pangu is now, whether he can crack open my turtle shell or not. So, next to Pangu, I lay down, cultivating and refining the pre-heavenly treasures I had received before.
