Amid the thunderous roar of Pangu’s beating heart, the parchment of the Chaos Contract unfolded spontaneously in the void. Yang Jian’s silver blood flowed along the lines of the contract, each droplet reflecting the image of three thousand demon gods gripping heavy chains. Xiaotian Hound transformed into a youthful boy, his sharp claws tearing through the solidified space, his black robes whipping in the turbulent currents of chaos: "Master, the core of the contract lies within Lady Yaoji’s Mending Heaven Seal!"
Sun Wukong rode his Somersault Cloud, surging against the current, the "Prison-Breaker" inscription on his Ruyi Jingu Bang burning crimson. The Chaos Primordial Stone, a transformation of the Mending Heaven Stone, hovered above his head; upon its rough skin, the handprints of Nuwa grappled with the Dao patterns of Hongjun. "A fine Ancestor of Dao indeed! Branding the Divine Opener of Heaven as a prisoner, and disguising the jailer as a demon god!"
The star of the emperor, formed from the remnants of Nezha’s soul, suddenly detonated, and a Twenty-Four-Grade Lotus bloomed from its core. The fragments of the Wind and Fire Wheels transformed into two fire dragons, coiling around the lotus stem. Within the flames, hieroglyphs emerged—they were the original text of the contract, inscribed in Pangu’s blood-tears when the chaos first parted.
