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

Chapter 27 Shocking Antarctica, Paying Homage to the Primordial Beginning

When the Old Man of the South Pole received the decree from the Primordial Celestial Lord and prepared to go to the mountain gate to greet him, the voice of the Primordial Celestial Lord suddenly rang out again.

“Antarctica, your uncle’s disciple is somewhat special. You must treat him with utmost respect and not be impolite.”

Yuanshi Tianzun didn't mention Zhou Chen's strength. After all, his disciple was still at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, while Zhou Chen, a disciple of the Jie Sect, had already reached the level of a Great Divine Power. This made Yuanshi Tianzun, who always valued his reputation, somewhat uncomfortable, and he was also afraid of discouraging his disciple, so he only gave a reminder.

"Yes, Master!"

"Go."

After leaving the Jade Void Palace, the Antarctic Immortal walked outside.

Although he didn't understand why his master kept repeating that he should treat the disciples of the Jie Sect with courtesy, he didn't take it to heart and followed his master's instructions, heading towards the mountain gate.

He didn't even consider the aspect of strength. After all, as the chief disciple of the Chan Sect, his aptitude and talent were exceptional; otherwise, he wouldn't have been accepted as the chief disciple by the Primordial Celestial Venerable.

He is a primordial being who has now reached the realm of Taiyi Golden Immortal, and he is very confident in his strength.

As a primordial being who studied under the Primordial Celestial Venerable, the Antarctic Immortal naturally possessed an air of arrogance.

Soon, the Antarctic Immortal arrived at the mountain gate. As soon as he arrived, the space directly in front of him suddenly cracked open, and a path formed by the laws of space stretched out from the broken space. A figure stepped out of the broken space by walking on the passage formed by the laws of space.

The Antarctic Immortal was taken aback. Shattering space and controlling the laws of space? Isn't this the method of a Great Luo Immortal? Could it be that a Great Luo Golden Immortal or a Quasi-Saint has come to pay respects to his master?
"Disciple of the Jade Void Saint, the Antarctic Immortal greets this senior!"

"Please wait a moment, senior. I will go and inform my master immediately."

Reverence for the strong is an age-old rule. Although he was a disciple of a sage, he was unwilling to offend a cultivator for no reason.

The Antarctic Immortal had already forgotten his original purpose of coming to welcome the disciples of the Jie Sect. After all, compared to those seeking the Dao, the disciples of the Jie Sect were clearly more important to the Antarctic Immortal. He believed that his master would not blame him if he found out.

Just as the Antarctic Immortal was thinking this...

The newcomer showed a look of surprise, then gave a wry smile.

"Senior brother, you flatter me. I am a disciple of the Jie Sect and I have come here to pay my respects to my second senior uncle."

Zhou Chen's tone was somewhat helpless. It was better if the Antarctic Immortal misunderstood, since the Antarctic Immortal was quite magnanimous. If it were Guang Chengzi or the other arrogant Twelve Golden Immortals, they might hold a grudge against Zhou Chen, since he had made them lose face.

The Antarctic Immortal was taken aback. A disciple of the Jie Sect? This is the person Master sent to greet?
The special thing Master mentioned was in terms of strength. No wonder Master specifically instructed us to treat him with respect! They've already entered the cultivation stage, how could we not treat them with respect?

She subconsciously looked up at Zhou Chen.

Upon discovering that Zhou Chen was actually at the peak of the Celestial Immortal realm, he rubbed his eyes. It wasn't an illusion; he really was at the peak of the Celestial Immortal realm!

Is this a sign that they're hiding their true strength?
"Junior brother, I wonder what realm you are at now?"

Unable to contain his curiosity, the Old Man of the South Pole asked directly.

The two sect leaders established their sects and accepted disciples around the same time. Although there was a slight difference in the timing of their acceptance of disciples, it wouldn't be too much of a difference. Moreover, this disciple of the Jie Sect wasn't one of the four direct disciples of the Jie Sect. He wanted to know what realm this person had reached in such a short time. Was he a Great Luo Golden Immortal? Or a Quasi-Saint?
"Hehe, senior brother, junior brother has just reached the Heavenly Immortal realm."

Zhou Chen chuckled and answered truthfully.

The Antarctic Immortal's lips twitched. He knew the other party had no reason to deceive him. But could a Celestial Immortal shatter the void and control the laws? He was at the Taiyi realm, how could he only be touching upon the laws? Had he cultivated a false immortality?

Seeing the Antarctic Immortal's bewildered expression, Zhou Chen quickly explained, "Senior brother, my situation is somewhat special. By chance, I gained control of the laws, but my true realm is indeed that of a Celestial Immortal."

The Old Man of the South Pole was even more distressed. Why didn't I have such a fortunate encounter? Was it because my blessings weren't deep enough? Or was it because my aptitude was lacking?

After a moment of random thoughts, she remembered her mission, quickly suppressed her chaotic thoughts, and spoke to Zhou Chen.

"Junior brother, I'll take you to Jade Void Palace to see the sect leader."

"Thank you, senior brother!"

After bowing respectfully, Zhou Chen followed the Antarctic Immortal toward the Jade Void Palace.

When they entered the Jade Void Palace, they met the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

"Master, Junior Brother has arrived."

The Old Man of the South Pole respectfully bowed to the Primordial Heavenly Venerable and said.

"I've met my uncle."

Zhou Chen also bowed to Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Hmm, Zhou Chen, you're quite good! Among the third-generation disciples of the Xuanmen, you were the first to embark on the path of cultivation. You haven't disgraced the Three Pure Ones."

Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Zhou Chen and nodded in satisfaction. Although he didn't particularly like some of the disciples of the Jie Sect, he had to admit Zhou Chen's excellence. In a short time, he had embarked on the path of cultivation, and for some reason, he had more than one path. Although he didn't know if cultivation would be difficult in the future, Zhou Chen's current strength was enough to place him among the great supernatural beings of the prehistoric world.

"Senior Uncle, you flatter me. Zhou Chen only took the first step by chance. With the aptitude of the senior brothers of the Chan Sect, it was only a matter of time before they embarked on the path of cultivation."

Zhou Chen also showed some modesty and took the opportunity to praise the disciples of the Chan Sect.

These words struck a chord with Yuanshi Tianzun. If it were anyone else, Yuanshi Tianzun might not have felt anything, but Zhou Chen was not only a disciple of the Jie Sect, but also the first great supernatural being among the three generations of Xuanmen. With all these identities, Yuanshi Tianzun was somewhat pleased.

His relationship with Tongtian Jiaozhu (the Master of the Heavens) was strained because of this. Although the division of the Three Pure Ones wasn't solely due to this, it did stem from this incident. Now, Tongtian's disciples acknowledged their own disciple's aptitude, which meant they agreed with his philosophy of accepting disciples! Although a sage doesn't need others' approval, this person's philosophy differed from his own. What his younger brother's disciple said felt somewhat different; although there was an element of flattery, Yuanshi liked to hear it!

"Hehe! Your senior brothers are still far from being good enough! You should exchange ideas more often when you have time."

Yuanshi Tianzun chuckled, looking quite satisfied with Zhou Chen, and casually asked him a question.

"Zhou Chen, how's your teacher doing lately?"

He was really just asking about the recent situation of Tongtian Jiaozhu. After all, they had been brothers for so many years and had just separated, so there wasn't as deep a conflict as there would have been later. However, he was very concerned about his reputation and didn't want Tongtian to look down on him, so they basically had no contact after the separation.

"Oh, teacher, you must be refining a spiritual treasure recently."

Zhou Chen guessed, after all, he had just exchanged the Primordial Measuring Ruler and the Pure World White Lotus with them, so he would definitely need to refine them.

Yuanshi Tianzun: ...

Sorry I was a little late today, there will be another chapter later.
