Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 109, Section 108: The Summoning of Gods
"Wouldn't the ancestor of humanity have been affected by that thing?"

Xuanyuan was extremely puzzled.

Fuxi shook his head and smiled as he looked at Xuanyuan.

"You don't know how amazing the Ancestor of Humanity was. Every step he took from birth to the present was legendary. What is being sung about by the human race today is just the tip of the iceberg."

"In short, we must heed the words of the Ancestor of Humanity. His reaction suggests that he has comprehended something extraordinary, perhaps even something beyond the level of a saint!"

Upon hearing Fuxi's words, Xuanyuan was shocked. It turned out that what the Ancestor of Humanity had shown was only the tip of the iceberg.

Lingxiao Palace.

"So it's been a long time since those three holy swords merged."

As the three swords merged, Ji Yuan's entire mind was focused on them, and he did not perceive the passage of time. Only after leaving the Fire Cloud Cave did he realize that a full 333,333 years had passed.

Haotian tried to find Ji Yuan several times, but was stopped by Huoyun Cave each time. He could only leave a message and wait for Ji Yuan to come out of seclusion before discussing the matter of conferring the gods.

"Haotian, I'm here."

After greeting Venus, Ji Yuan stepped into the Lingxiao Palace and shouted loudly.

"Oh, you've finally arrived! This matter of bestowing titles upon the gods has been troubling me for so long."

Haotian looked worried when he saw Ji Yuan finally arrive.

"It's just the investiture of gods, what's there to worry about?"

Ji Yuan was puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Haotian snorted and glared.

"To examine the merits of Heaven and Earth, there must be a time limit for the examination, and there are various rules that I dare to set easily by myself."

Haotian felt quite aggrieved. The Dao Ancestor wanted the two of them to be conferred the title of god, but who knew that Ji Yuan would be in seclusion for two multi-dimensional periods.

Mr. Ji Yuan comforted Haotian, and then the two engaged in a heated discussion.

……

"That's it?"

Haotian asked.

"Ok, deal!"

Ji Yuan's tone was extremely firm.

However, Haotian did not immediately announce the investiture of the gods, but instead asked with some confusion:
“Brother Ji Yuan, why do you think Master won’t let me compete with Yaochi for the Purple Qi? We are the closest to him. Even if he doesn’t bestow the Primordial Purple Qi upon us, shouldn’t he at least give us a chance to compete, even if it means losing the position of Heavenly Emperor?”

Ji Yuan was taken aback upon hearing this. No wonder Haotian had been looking so worried; it turned out he suspected that he was no longer favored.

“You’re overthinking it,” Ji Yuan said slowly. “Now that Heaven, Earth, and Man are in a tripartite balance, the Heavenly Dao no longer only has the six ordained saints, but nine. Even if we exclude the one who has escaped and is unpredictable, there are still two saintly positions available. The Dao Ancestor has merged with the Heavenly Dao. Once the origin of the Heavenly Dao is fully restored, how could he not consider you?”

"You should trust him. The current Primordial Purple Qi is merely a means to accelerate the repair of the Heavenly Dao's origin. Once this matter is settled, a Heavenly Dao position will surely fall into your hands."

Ji Yuan's words shocked Haotian greatly, and he quickly asked:

"Really? My good brother, how do you know so much?"

Ji Yuan nodded very sincerely. He knew far more than that; it was the will of humanity that had told him.

After the emergence of the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man, the essence of the primordial world was strengthened, the number of saints increased, and the power of the saints of the three paths was also enhanced.

In general, there are currently nine saint positions in the Heavenly Dao, five saint positions in the Earthly Dao, and four saint positions in the Human Dao. When the other two origins approach the Heavenly Dao in the future, they will also generate the same number of saint positions as the Heavenly Dao. However, one saint position will be lost in the process of being destined to merge with the Dao.

Seeing Ji Yuan's certainty, Haotian felt greatly reassured. Holding the Investiture of the Gods, blessed by the Heavenly Dao, the barrier between the Heavenly Realm and the Human Realm instantly vanished. His voice, imbued with the authority of Heaven, resounded throughout the Three Realms:

"By decree of the Dao Ancestor, the position of Heavenly Saint is vacant. For the sake of the primordial world, those who enter the Heavenly Court to be conferred a divine position, regardless of their cultivation level, will be examined for their Heavenly Dao merits after 9,999 Yuanhui. Those who achieve the first two will be granted Primordial Purple Qi! Our Heavenly Emperor Haotian is in charge of conferring divine positions, and Human Ancestor Jiyuan is in charge of the merit assessment, in accordance with the Heavenly Rules and Precepts!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the barrier was restored, causing an uproar throughout the Earth and Human Realms and even beyond the Primordial Wilderness.

The Styx River, which had been hiding in the chaos, could not resist the temptation and quietly entered the primordial world, but it did not discover that there were several deeply hidden auras in its sea of ​​blood.

At the eye of the sea, a mysterious aura quietly slipped into the primordial world. In countless hidden places, powerful beings opened their eyes, looked up at the sky, and sought to vie for ownership of the purple aura.

And on Mount Sumeru.

"Brother, Fellow Daoist Houtu, aren't you afraid that the Dao Ancestor's actions will lead to other Heavenly Dao Saints following our example?"

Zhunti was very puzzled. Daozu's method seemed to be able to strengthen the origin of the Heavenly Dao very quickly, but in reality, it was very easy to raise some ungrateful people.

Jieyin shook his head and smiled slightly:
“Second brother, we have no choice but to side with the underground path. We can’t repay the karma we’ve accumulated. But those who join later won’t have to repay karma, so why would they think of betraying us? The Heavenly Dao is ultimately the strongest. Besides, how do you know if there are any pre-selected candidates?”

Jieyin doesn't believe that the Investiture of the Gods is so simple, but they could try to imitate this method.

The Heavenly Way can recruit people with the title of Saint, and so can the Earthly Way. However, they cannot arbitrarily allow the Earthly Way to bestow the title of Saint. Those who can receive the title of Saint are those with great supernatural powers and have made great contributions to the Earthly Way. But it is not impossible to use the title of Saint of the Earthly Way to deceive people.

Zhunti's eyes darted around, and he came up with a variety of plans. Countless clones scattered and went to various parts of the prehistoric world.

It wasn't just the Sages of the Earthly Path who reacted; the Chan Sect, the Jie Sect, the Dragon Clan... countless sects and races all had different thoughts. Who wouldn't want a Saintly position?

Countless powerful beings have already rushed to the South Heavenly Gate, waiting for Haotian to open the gate, hoping to obtain the Primordial Purple Qi.

Ji Yuan had already returned to the Jie Sect. As soon as he arrived at Jin'ao Island, he was summoned into the hall by the Tongtian Sect Leader.

May our Master's Great Dao endure forever, and may his Dao fruits remain eternally.

He gave a practiced bow.

"You little rascal, after all these years, you still know how to talk."

The Master of the Heavens laughed heartily and then gestured for Ji Yuan to sit down.

Are you sure you want to take this route?

The Master of Heaven was extremely serious.

Ji Yuan nodded; there was nothing to be afraid of.

"This path is not so simple. When you attain enlightenment, you will suffer tribulations. Every great path you comprehend will be subject to tribulations. You must overcome these great tribulations before you can attain enlightenment."

The Tongtian Sect Leader's words were full of worry. He was transformed from the primordial spirit of Pangu, so he naturally knew some of the scenes of the Father God's enlightenment. Ji Yuan's path was very similar to his, and even more dangerous. If he were to perish under the calamity, the probability of returning would be zero.

"Haha, Master, have you forgotten the teachings of my Intercepting Sect? To seize a sliver of life, I believe I can take that step!"

Ji Yuan, however, appeared extremely confident, simply because he had a cheat code.

The Master of Heaven patted him on the shoulder:

"Alright, go ahead. I know you have something to discuss with Duobao and the others."

Ji Yuan bowed and left Biyou Palace.

"How difficult is the tribulation that obstructs the path, Father God! Is Ji Yuan a continuation of your will?"

The voice of the Tongtian Sect Leader echoed in Biyou Palace, stirring ripples in time and space.
