Primordial Ancient Serpent-Chapter 257: Chaos Skynet, The Stabilization of Three Thousand Dao
Chapter 257 - 257: Chaos Skynet, The Stabilization of Three Thousand Dao
Gu Chuan paid no attention to the Chaos Demon Gods controlled by the Doomsday of Slaughter. His priority was to stabilize this world and prevent its collapse.
Otherwise, all his previous efforts would be in vain, and the terrifying force unleashed by the world's destruction could even crush his Primordial Ancient Serpent body. Compared to such a catastrophe, the threats posed by the Chaos Demon Gods were insignificant.
"First, I must stabilize the fundamental forces of earth, wind, water, and fire. Then, I must regulate the power of the Five Elements—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—before dividing and refining the forces of thunder, wind, darkness, and others. Only then will true stability be achieved."

Gu Chuan's hands moved like those of a grandmaster musician, plucking the strings of existence, weaving the chaotic vitality of this Prehistoric World into order. Every strand of energy was guided and merged into the world's inner space, harmonizing with its foundation.
At that moment, a profound sensation stirred within him—he could feel the joy of heaven and earth, the rhythmic pulse of universal laws, and the very breath of creation.
Rumble—
As the elements returned to their rightful places, the Prehistoric World underwent a transformation of unimaginable magnitude. Land, sky, and ocean materialized as if sculpted by divine hands.
Majestic mountains rose from the ground, vast and boundless, resembling sleeping dragons entrenched across the land, radiating an aura of primordial earth. Expansive continents emerged, separated by endless seas. A tempestuous wind howled, carrying the resonance of dragons soaring through the heavens.
The Five Elements—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—integrated seamlessly into the land and sea, giving rise to precious minerals and spiritual materials, forming the world's structural foundation.
Although this Prehistoric World was not yet complete and devoid of life, its framework had been established. Supported by the Five Elements Pillars, its existence was now stable, immune to collapse. The power of the Five Elements Dao had become the backbone of the world.
To use an analogy, it was akin to constructing a house—the framework was complete, but it still required refinement, furnishing, and the presence of life to make it truly whole.
Yet, Gu Chuan frowned. "No, this is still insufficient. The laws of heaven and earth in this world remain chaotic and unstable."
A sharp gleam flashed in his eyes.
In his previous life, powerful beings such as the Immemorial Golden Immortals, Quasi-Sages, and Saints fought recklessly in the Prehistoric World, shattering space and nearly destroying the world in every battle.
This was because the laws of heaven and earth were too fragile, unable to withstand the power of those above the Immemorial Golden Immortal realm. As a result, every great conflict weakened the world's foundation, leading to a cycle of destruction and decline.
Over countless ages, the Prehistoric World had suffered repeated catastrophes, shortening its lifespan and diminishing its spiritual essence. What was once a realm of boundless Spiritual Qi deteriorated—first to Immortal Qi, then to Innate Qi, followed by Acquired Qi, until ultimately, all that remained was mundane air, thick with corruption.
This degeneration heralded the arrival of the Dharma-Ending Era, a time when cultivation became nearly impossible.
To prevent this tragedy from repeating, Gu Chuan had to forge a world where even the might of a Saint could not tear apart its fabric. The laws of heaven and earth had to be fortified to an unbreakable state, as solid as divine metal.
"Yes... If I wish to stabilize the laws of this world, I will require this treasure."
With a wave of his hand, Gu Chuan retrieved a powerful artifact—a Chaos Supreme Treasure known as Chaos Skynet.
Originally, this treasure had belonged to the Dark Spider Queen, but after he had seized it, it became his possession. From it, he had gained profound insights into the Chaos Sealing Technique, the Chaos Eight Trigrams, and other esoteric arts, deepening his understanding of the Dao.
This treasure was a force of unimaginable might—comparable to the legendary Sky-Opening Axe. When unleashed, it could effortlessly ensnare any Chaos Demon God, rendering them powerless.
But today, Gu Chuan did not summon the Chaos Skynet to capture an enemy. Instead, he sought to use it to weave order into the fundamental laws of the Prehistoric World, ensuring their permanence.
"Go!"
Forming intricate seals with his hands, he activated the Chaos Skynet, allowing it to merge into the fabric of reality.
Rumble—
The Chaos Skynet expanded, transforming into an immense net that stretched across the boundless expanse, enveloping the entire Prehistoric World like an all-encompassing web.
This was Skynet—
"Skynet is vast, its mesh sparse yet never failing."
Like the supreme laws of heaven, it left no room for escape. Under its influence, the Three Thousand Dao of the Prehistoric World harmonized and solidified, ensuring unparalleled stability. Even the very space of this realm became indestructible.
No longer could Quasi-Sages casually tear through space to travel the world. Even Saints, who had comprehended the nine supreme laws, would struggle to pierce the void. Most immortals and even Saints would be forced to traverse the world by flight, bound by the natural order.
Gone were the days when Immemorial Golden Immortals could rip apart space with a wave of their hands. The recklessness of the past was no more.
But this transformation was not without consequences. The Skynet's integration made the path to enlightenment far more difficult for future generations.
In the past, the fragile and chaotic nature of universal laws allowed countless cultivators to easily comprehend them, accelerating their ascension to immortality. This abundance of opportunity had once led to a golden age of rapid cultivation.
But now, such fortune no longer existed.
With the Skynet reinforcing the laws of heaven and earth, the path of Dao was obscured, and comprehending the mysteries of the world became a thousand, no—a billion times harder than before.
If the great immortals of the future knew what Gu Chuan had done, they would surely be furious. To them, this was an unspeakable crime, an act of utter cruelty.
Yet, while the difficulty of cultivation had increased, the world itself had flourished.
With the stabilization of the Prehistoric World, its landmass expanded exponentially, creating room for countless new lives to be born. Furthermore, the abundance of Heavenly and Mortal Treasures greatly increased, ensuring an endless supply of cultivation resources.
Moreover, with no Saints recklessly shattering time and space, the cycle of catastrophic destruction had come to an end. Unlike the past, where repeated apocalypses had wiped out entire lineages, the world was now a place of relative peace and stability.
In the grand scheme of things, the new Prehistoric World had both advantages and disadvantages.
But such concerns were for the future.
For now, the foundation had been set, and the path of destiny had been rewritten.
