Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 19.19. A Second Journey
As for warding off evil spirits, we have to talk about the current primitive environment.

There is no reincarnation; after death, living beings either return to heaven and earth or become spirits.

However, there is malevolent energy in the world, and most souls, tainted by resentment, will turn into evil spirits.

This is one form of evil.

The warding-off-evil technique can make these evil spirits subconsciously stay away from Ji Yuan, and it even greatly enhances his ability to harm evil spirits.

Some evil spirits couldn't even withstand a single word from Ji Yuan and would be utterly destroyed.

Ji Yuan looked at the next picture in the catalog.

It has a dragon's head, wears armor, and has strong limbs.

"This is... Baxia?"

……

A streak of light flashed through the air; it was Ji Yuan.

Having made arrangements for the future development of the human race, Ji Yuan headed towards the East Sea.

He needs to go to the Jie Sect first.

Upon arriving at the Jie Sect, Ji Yuan first paid his respects to the Tongtian Sect Leader, and then gave him three of the most delicious Golden Crow legs, hoping that he could pass on two of the chicken legs to Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun.

Although they, as saints, look down on this thing, whether or not to want it is another matter entirely.

The Tongtian Sect Leader praised Ji Yuan for his filial piety.

After bidding farewell to the Tongtian Sect Leader, Ji Yuan went to see the Three Immortals of Sanxiao and Zhao Gongming. The four of them were still cultivating in the Innate Gui Water Pool.

Then they went to the cave where Ao Guang had entered, but Ao Guang hadn't come out. After some calculation, they concluded that Ao Guang was unharmed.

Ji Yuan then went to find Daoist Duobao and gave him the remaining Golden Crow Feathers.

This made Daoist Duobao extremely happy, as the Golden Crow Feathers were excellent materials for refining weapons.

Instructing him not to let outsiders see him, Ji Yuan headed towards the East Sea Dragon Palace.

They found Ao Run and told him that Ao Guang had a great opportunity and that he didn't need to worry.

Ao Run not only wasn't worried, but also gave him a large amount of magical herbs and precious gold.

Ji Yuan didn't think too much about it, only that the old Dragon King was really rich and powerful.

While appreciating the scenery of the North, we hurried towards the North Sea.

The North is actually quite barren, cold all year round, and has very few living creatures.

He traveled leisurely all the way and finally arrived at Beihai.

He had already sensed that an opportunity was waiting for him.

The North Sea is much quieter than the East Sea, where various creatures can often be seen in the Jiyuan of the East Sea.

After traveling in the North Sea for several years, all he saw were monsters formed from accumulated resentment.

They couldn't communicate at all, but with Ji Yuan's ability to ward off evil, anyone who came would die.

As for the dragons, they were hidden within the formation. Ji Yuan could sense where they were, but seeing their reclusive nature, he didn't intend to disturb them.

Another century has passed in the blink of an eye.

Ji Yuan walked into a place shrouded in mist.

Ji Yuan saw that there was an illusion array covering tens of thousands of miles within the mist.

However, the illusion array had no effect on Ji Yuan, who possessed several abilities and was burdened with the great fortune of heaven and earth.

A mere illusion array is no match for him.

After wandering through the fog and illusion for months, finally, the view opened up before us.

The sea here is completely different from the North Sea. Unlike the murky and gloomy North Sea, this sea is clear and pure, exuding a spiritual aura.

Putting all that aside, a huge dragon head was staring intently at Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan was discovered by Xuanwu as soon as he entered the North Sea. After all, Ji Yuan's luck was too intense, so it was hard not to notice him.

He originally didn't want to pay any attention to this human with amazing luck.

However, this human came straight to his place of cultivation, with a very clear purpose and without any detours.

He concealed himself at this moment to see what this human was up to.

Ji Yuan was puzzled. Such a beautiful and spiritually rich place should have living beings, but there was nothing here.

Ji Yuan exerted all his strength to activate his innate ability, and finally, a faint shadow appeared in his field of vision.

He quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord Xuanwu."

"Ok?"

"You, a mere junior of the human race, actually managed to detect my presence." The enormous tortoise-snake form of the Xuanwu Divine Lord slowly manifested before Ji Yuan.

Xuanwen was somewhat surprised that a human who was a Taiyi Golden Immortal could see through his concealment technique. Although he had not used his full strength, it was still quite astonishing.

Xuanwu's voice was powerful and resonant:
"Young man, you are indeed exceptionally talented. Where did you come from?"

Ji Yuan bowed again and said, "I am Ji Yuan, the eldest disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master. I came here because I have encountered a great opportunity."

"If this has caused any disturbance, I hope the deity will forgive me."

Xuanwu's heart stirred:
"So he is a disciple of a sage. We must not ruin our relationship. I still need to accumulate merit by suppressing the sea eye in the North Sea."

So he spoke:

"The North Sea is barren and suffered another blow during the Dragon-Han Calamity. There are many wronged souls and lingering resentments here. As for opportunities? That's hard to say."

"This……"

Ji Yuan was also somewhat uncertain. He had always had great confidence in his abilities, and since the direction pointed to this place, there should be a result.

Seeing Ji Yuan deep in thought.

The patterns on the Xuanwu's carapace flowed slowly, the tortoise and snake intertwined, a yin and yang force interwoven, and he suddenly understood:

"I know what it is."

Ji Yuan looked up.

Then, a flag emanating an ominous aura appeared in Xuanwu's hand.

Upon its appearance in the world, it exuded waves of resentment.

"Ancestor Dragon!"

"Dragon clan..."

"Damn it!"

"Could this be the lingering regret of Yu Jiang?"

Ji Yuan suddenly remembered that there was a sea god in the North Sea.

With a human face and a bird's body, it controls the wind and snow.

During the Great Calamity of the Dragon and Han Dynasties, the First Emperor of Dragons sought to unify the four seas and nine provinces.

As the sea god of the North Sea, Yu Jiang naturally became a thorn in the side of the First Emperor.

Thus, a great battle broke out between the two, resulting in Yu Jiang's death and the destruction of his spirit, which wreaked havoc in the North Sea.

"That's right, this is the lingering remnant of Yujiang."

Xuanwu's voice carried a hint of sorrow.

“Yu Jiang and I have known each other since the beginning of time. He is one of my few good friends.”

"He died at the hands of the Ancestral Dragon, and his resentment lingered after his death, finding its place in this Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag."

"If you can resolve Yu Jiang's resentment, then this Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag will naturally be yours. This is indeed a stroke of luck."

Ji Yuan pointed to himself and asked in confusion:
"Resolve resentment?"

"I?"

"Divine Lord, how can I, a mere Taiyi Golden Immortal, possibly resolve the lingering resentment of a Quasi-Saint?"

Ji Yuan hadn't expected Xuanwu to ask him to resolve the resentment. Asking him to resolve the resentment of a quasi-saint at the peak level would likely result in him being assimilated by the resentment.

Xuanwu's body trembled, waves rippled on the sea, and he said with a smile:

"Resolving resentment is not only about suppressing it with force, but also about purifying it with good deeds and good fortune."

"If one can purify Yujiang's resentment and restore peace to Beihai, one will gain a considerable amount of merit."

"I see"

Ji Yuan then realized what was happening.

"Then may I ask, Your Majesty, is my fortune sufficient to resolve the resentment of the Great God Yujiang?"

Ji Yuan knew that his luck was very strong, but he didn't know exactly how strong it was, as no living being in the world could observe his luck.

The saying "a doctor cannot heal himself" applies here as well.

Xuanwu shook his head and said:
"As a disciple of a sage, would I dare let anything happen to you in my monastery?"

"Take it!"

The next moment, the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag floated to Ji Yuan's side, and Ji Yuan reached out and grasped it.

In an instant, the world turned upside down!
