"Your guess was indeed correct. As long as the world feels a clear and substantial benefit and a spark is ignited, the rest will proceed on its own even if I don't intervene."
At this moment, fully aware of what had transpired and feeling the immense benefits he had gained, the Yin-Yang God and Demon wasn't overly worried about the subsequent roars from the Clear Qi God and Demon and the Turbid Qi God and Demon. He had already anticipated numerous scenarios and prepared countermeasures, including a suitable excuse for the current situation.
What truly surprised him was this outcome, which he had previously considered highly improbable.
He never expected it to be the actual reality.
Initially, the Yin-Yang God and Demon had considered infusing the Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Light into the primordial origins of Clear Qi and Turbid Qi. This would not only resolve the fundamental issue of Clear and Turbid Qi merging into Chaos Qi but also expand the influence of his Yin-Yang laws, thereby enhancing his authority.
However, as soon as this idea was proposed, it was met with strong opposition from the Clear Qi God and Demon and the Turbid Qi God and Demon, nearly causing an outright confrontation. Consequently, the Yin-Yang God and Demon had to temporarily abandon this plan and jointly agree with the other Gods and Demons to initially infuse the Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Light only into ordinary Clear Qi and Turbid Qi, to see if it would work. If it did, great; if not, at least they would have tried.
It was at this point that Ding Yun offered a new conjecture.
He suggested that even if the world lacked self-awareness, it naturally gravitated towards benefits and avoided harm. As long as the world could perceive a significant advantage in something, and a starting point was established, it might proceed autonomously.
Driven by an unwillingness to give up and the minimal risk of failure, the Yin-Yang God and Demon eventually adopted Ding Yun's suggestion, which involved a slight deviation from the plan agreed upon with the Clear Qi God and Demon and the Turbid Qi God and Demon.
Their original plan was to fuse the Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Light only with ordinary primordial Clear Qi and Turbid Qi.
The deviation was to surreptitiously fuse a trace of Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Light with a wisp of primordial Clear Qi and Turbid Qi origin. By fusing only a single wisp, even if Ding Yun's conjecture proved wrong, he could claim it was a misunderstanding or an oversight due to excitement, exceeding his authority.
He figured the Clear Qi God and Demon and the Turbid Qi God and Demon would not escalate the situation to an irreparable break over such a minor issue.
Furthermore, if only a single wisp of origin was fused, it would be a simple matter for them to either negate the Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Light in that wisp with other origins or to simply strip away that wisp of origin. It would incur minimal loss for them and certainly fall within their tolerance, making it worth a try.
Precisely because this additional step was not excessively audacious,
the Yin-Yang God and Demon was willing to take the gamble.
As for the result...
It not only validated Ding Yun's conjecture but also brought the Yin-Yang God and Demon an incredibly bountiful harvest.
An immeasurably generous one.
Everything that had just occurred, up to the point of infusing a trace of Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Light into a wisp of primordial Clear Qi and Turbid Qi origin, was the doing of the Yin-Yang God and Demon. The rest was the world's spontaneous action. At that moment, the Yin-Yang God and Demon himself was somewhat stunned, in a state of shock.
Moreover, with his own abilities, it was impossible for him to bypass all the primordial Gods and Demons of heaven and earth and completely integrate the Yin-Yang laws into all beings and all things in the world.
With this confidence, when the Clear Qi God and Demon and the Turbid Qi God and Demon roared and swarmed towards him seeking retribution, the Yin-Yang God and Demon remained unfazed. He first protected himself with the Primordial Yin-Yang Diagram before lamenting and hastily presenting his excuses.
He didn't say much, primarily stating that he had no idea why these events had occurred, that the subsequent actions were not his doing but rather the world's inexplicable spontaneous progression. The Yin-Yang God and Demon also presented facts and reason, asserting that he lacked the capability for such actions.
Following his appeasement and defense, the Clear Qi God and Demon and the Turbid Qi God and Demon calmed down slightly.
They began to recall the events that had transpired.
The more they thought about it, the more it seemed that the subsequent events were indeed not orchestrated by the Yin-Yang God and Demon. This was because, previously, when the Yin-Yang God and Demon infused large amounts of Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Light into the primordial Clear Qi and primordial Turbid Qi, he had required the assistance of the Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Cycle Array and their help.
By the time countless Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Lights suddenly materialized and forcefully integrated into the origins of Clear Qi and Turbid Qi, the array had already been destroyed. They had also quickly activated their prior contingency measures to stop it but ultimately failed. In their previous rage and frustration, they had not considered the rationality of the situation. Upon reflection, this aspect indeed exceeded the capabilities of the Yin-Yang God and Demon.
Most importantly, when those subsequent Yin-Yang Limitless Divine Lights directly merged with the primordial origins of heaven and earth, radiating throughout all of creation and most of the laws, other primordial Gods and Demons also failed to prevent it. This further reinforced that it was beyond the Yin-Yang God and Demon's capabilities; he was nowhere near that powerful.
However, understanding did not entirely quell their anger, especially since the Yin-Yang God and Demon was the primary beneficiary. Therefore, after his defense, although he gained a brief respite, he was ultimately beaten by the Clear Qi God and Demon and the Turbid Qi God and Demon. This was not to say the Yin-Yang God and Demon could not defeat them at that moment, but rather that they were not fighting to kill. They likely intended only to vent their anger, and the Yin-Yang God and Demon genuinely felt he was in the wrong.
If he were to retaliate, or even kill one or two of them, his reputation would be irrevocably tarnished. Thus, he could only endure the beating.
A beating was worth such immense gains.
Concurrently, other top-tier primordial Gods and Demons in this world had largely come to understand. They realized that although the Yin-Yang God and Demon was involved in the profound changes occurring in heaven and earth, he was not entirely responsible. He had merely initiated the process; the subsequent transformations were likely the world's spontaneous actions.
However, these transformations were undeniably positive and beneficial.
And the originator of these changes reaped the greatest rewards.
Thus, top-tier primordial Gods and Demons such as Time, Destiny, and the Five Elements quickly began analyzing the reasons, trying to figure out if they could use their own primordial laws to
initiate similar events.
The Yin-Yang God and Demon had already forged ahead of them. If they didn't catch up quickly, the gap would widen, and the Yin-Yang God and Demon might even become the first in heaven and earth to achieve the perfection of his laws. How could primordial Gods and Demons who believed their own primordial laws were no inferior, or even superior, to the Yin-Yang God and Demon's, tolerate this?
Therefore, while the Yin-Yang God and Demon was being beaten, most of the top-tier primordial Gods and Demons were already engaged in analysis and learning.
