The Primordial Era: The Mythical Path Beginning with the Jie Sect

Chapter 13 Irreversible Timeline
The art of formations is still very important; otherwise, the formations of the Jie Sect during the Investiture of the Gods period would not have been so brilliant.

With meager strength, one can utilize the power of the Great Dao contained within the formation to fight against an enemy. If the opponent lacks innate spiritual treasures or comparable Daoist techniques and supernatural abilities, they are simply no match for them.

Zhou Chen felt he could try using an array to see if he could condense the shadow of the Zhou Tian World within the Great Acupoint.

Just as Zhou Chen was preparing to deduce the truth, the Tongtian Sect Leader stopped preaching, and the many disciples of the Jie Sect who were originally immersed in the Great Dao also woke up one after another.

Outside Biyou Palace, all the beings who had come to listen to the sermon also awoke, but they did not rush to leave; instead, they waited quietly.

The Tongtian Sect Leader opened his eyes, glanced at everyone, and then slowly spoke.

"If you have any questions, please ask, and I will answer them for you."

Upon hearing this, everyone in Biyou Palace stood up and respectfully bowed to the Tongtian Sect Leader.

"Thank you teacher."

After everyone finished speaking, they sat cross-legged again. Then, Daoist Duobao, as the senior disciple of the Jie Sect, took the lead in raising his own level of confusion.

These questions and answers were extremely simple for Zhou Chen, so he ignored them and continued to think about how to use an array to condense the shadows of the myriad worlds in his own major acupoints.

A century passed in the back and forth of questions and answers, and on this day, it was finally Zhou Chen's turn to ask a question.

Everyone looked at Zhou Chen, waiting for his question. Zhou Chen didn't hesitate and directly asked the Tongtian Sect Leader:

"Teacher, what are the heavens?"

The Master of the Heavenly Sect gave Zhou Chen a deep look and slowly spoke.

"The term 'all heavens' refers to multiple worlds. In fact, when the term 'all heavens' is mentioned, the worldview of the heavens is multi-layered. It is not composed of a single large world or a limited large world, but is composed of countless worlds, forming the so-called myriad worlds of the heavens."

Since not every world can be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao like the primordial world, there are many timelines, which leads to the infinite dimensions of the myriad worlds.

Actually, the Primordial World does have other timelines, but it doesn't allow reversing timelines or creating new ones, because…

The Tongtian Sect Leader did not say what followed, and Zhou Chen could clearly sense that the Tongtian Sect Leader was suffering a backlash.

Zhou Chen couldn't think of anything other than the Heavenly Dao that could turn against the Tongtian Sect Master. Surely it couldn't be Pangu, could it?
and many more!

Other worlds can easily reverse timelines, which means that the cost of reversing timelines is not very high, and many people can resist the backlash of time. So why can't the primordial world do the same?

Just now, the Tongtian Sect Leader said it was not allowed. Who is not allowed? Is it the Heavenly Dao? Perhaps even the Heavenly Dao does not allow it, but it is certainly not just the Heavenly Dao, because the Wu Clan does not respect the Heavenly Dao. If they could reverse the timeline and there is no master, even at the cost of annihilation, these madmen would resurrect Pangu. However, the Wu Clan in the prehistoric world did not do so, which means that the Great God Pangu did not agree. As for why he disagreed, Zhou Chen quickly figured out the reason.

Strong individuals, especially those who have cultivated their own Great Dao, possess a unique dignity. If they lose, they lose; although they have failed, their Great Dao still remains.

Sayings like "it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death" only apply to ordinary people, and only to those who haven't achieved much. Great supernatural beings wouldn't do that. "If I hear the Dao in the morning, I can die content in the evening!" This is not just empty talk.

The timeline is irreversible. Those great supernatural beings who perished in the past exist in the timeline before their demise. Trying to reverse the timeline might provoke attacks from these great supernatural beings. Just thinking about these fallen great supernatural beings makes Zhou Chen's scalp tingle.

The Eastern King Duke of the Celestial Court, the Demon Clan's Rahu, Qiankun Ancestor, and Yin-Yang Ancestor from the Dao-Demon War, and then the Ancestral Dragon, Ancestral Qilin, and Ancestral Phoenix from the Three Races' Struggle for Supremacy. Next is the Beast Emperor Shenni from the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts. The most outrageous are Pangu and the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons from the Great Calamity of Creation. With these powerful figures guarding the timeline, who would dare to reverse it? Wouldn't that be courting death?

After figuring it out, Zhou Chen's lips twitched slightly as he shook the jumbled thoughts out of his mind. He then thanked the Tongtian Sect Leader and withdrew.

The members of the Jie Sect were completely bewildered by the question and answer between Tongtian Jiaozhu and Zhou Chen. Some people, seeing that Zhou Chen was only at the Heavenly Immortal realm, asked such questions and mentally labeled him as unrealistic.

Only the Golden Spirit Mother frowned. Although she hadn't interacted much with Zhou Chen, she knew her master well. If Zhou Chen had asked irrelevant questions or questions beyond his capabilities, her master wouldn't have explained in such detail, and would have even given him a warning not to be overly ambitious. But her master hadn't done that, which meant that this question was either something Zhou Chen urgently needed to know, or that he was qualified to understand it. Only in this way could it be in line with her master's usual temperament.

Golden Spirit Mother took a deep breath and looked at Zhou Chen, who was only at the Heavenly Immortal realm. A complex look appeared in her eyes, and the pride she had just gained from breaking through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm vanished without a trace.

After recovering for a moment, the Tongtian Sect Leader spoke directly.

"After this sermon concludes, you should all return home and diligently study and cultivate the Great Dao that has been taught. By the way, when I listened to the Dao in Zixiao Palace years ago, the Dao Ancestor bestowed upon me many magical treasures, which I have no use keeping to myself. Today, I will bestow them upon you."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Jie Sect was extremely excited.

Every cultivator in the primordial era desires a powerful magical artifact.

However, the number of innate spiritual treasures is limited, and they are something that can only be encountered by chance.

Most people don't have the ability to forge a powerful acquired spiritual treasure themselves.

Zhou Chen also felt a sense of anticipation. Although he knew the effects of innate spiritual treasures, he also wanted one for protection. However, he knew that there were far more monks than porridge, and he might not get one. Moreover, he had even asked the Tongtian Sect Leader for one, but the Sage had not granted him one. He didn't know if he would get one this time.

"Duobao, as the eldest brother, I bestow this innate spiritual treasure, the Golden Cloud Crown, upon you."

With a flick of his sleeve, the Tongtian Sect Leader sent a golden crown flying to Duobao's front.

"Thank you, Master."

Duobao reached out his hands to receive it and bowed respectfully.

Duobao Daoren was a disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu before he became a saint. He had been bestowed with many spiritual treasures before, but this time Tongtian Jiaozhu only symbolically bestowed upon him a golden crown.

"Jin Ling, this time I'll give you a celestial sword!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Tongtian sent a celestial sword imbued with the aura of an innate spiritual treasure flying to the Golden Spirit Mother.

"Thank you, Master."

The Golden Spirit Mother calmly put away the magical treasure. She was still caught up in the speculation about Zhou Chen's strength, otherwise she wouldn't be so calm. Even if she wasn't too excited, she would still be somewhat happy. How could she be so calm now!
"No good."

"Turtle Spirit."

"dark clouds."

"Golden hoop."

"."

The Tongtian Sect Leader then transformed into the Treasure Distributor and continuously took out innate spiritual treasures, bestowing them upon his two direct disciples, Wudang and Guiling, as well as the seven attendant immortals, including Wuyun Xian.

The disciples of the Jie Sect can be divided into four levels.

The first place naturally belongs to the four direct disciples: Daoist Duobao, Holy Mother Jinling, Holy Mother Wudang, and Holy Mother Guiling.

Next are Wuyun Xian, Jingu Xian, Pilu Xian, Qiushou Xian, Jinguang Xian, Lingya Xian, and Dingguang Xian, these seven attendant immortals. Although they do not have the title of direct disciples, they can still follow Tongtian Jiaozhu and listen to his teachings.
