Primordial: From a grain of soil to the ancestor of all paths

Thirty-three levels of heaven!

Taiqing Palace!
"Time is too short now, and there are not many beings who are willing and qualified to join my Chan Sect."

"The countless beings of the primordial world, for fear of being listed on the Investiture of the Gods, dare not go to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion for the time being."

"But they won't easily help us deal with the demon race."

"But wouldn't this give the demon race time to recuperate?"

Upon arriving here, Yuanshi frowned slightly and spoke to Taiqing with some displeasure.

It is certainly a good thing that it can deter the creatures of the primordial world from going to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion and breaking the primordial layout.

However, the great battle against the demon race was one of the most important tasks of the Chan Sect in the Investiture of the Gods.

After all, with the help of Tai Chu and the others, Di Jun abolished the two corpses of good and evil and embarked on the path of the emperor who proved himself through the laws.

He was even more audacious than to try and seize control of humanity's destiny!

This is undoubtedly a betrayal of Hongjun and his group, and it will also harm their interests.

Fortunately, Di Jun had only recently switched to cultivation, and the demon race didn't have any Primordial Chaos level cultivators at all.

This is a good opportunity to deal with them.

Once the demon race is given time to recuperate, it will be much more difficult to deal with them again.

Moreover, the current demon race is also part of the primordial plan.

Dealing with the demon race is dealing with the Primordial Chaos.

"Yes, you're right. We can't give the demon race a chance to recuperate."

Upon hearing Yuanshi's concerns, Taiqing nodded in agreement, saying, "Since your Chan Sect disciples are insufficient, let the Eastern King Duke's Celestial Court take action against the demon race first, buying time for the Chan Sect to recruit enough disciples."

"Isn't this exactly why I resurrected them?"

Because the Eastern King Duke wanted to personally annihilate the demon race, but was worried that the Celestial Court's power was insufficient, he had been waiting for the right opportunity.

But this also gives the demon race time to become stronger.

Now, Taiqing is about to have Dongwanggong directly wage a large-scale war against the demon race.

Even if the Celestial Court were destroyed by the demon race again, Taiqing would not care too much.

As long as we can interrupt the growth of the demon race and cause them more losses, that's fine.

"good idea!"

After understanding Taiqing's thoughts, Yuanshi's eyes lit up and he exclaimed in admiration. But soon, as if he had thought of something, he worried again: "But now, my Chan Sect and the Western Sect led by Jieyin and Zhunti are both recruiting disciples on a large scale."

"Moreover, because of our previous actions of expanding the scope of the Investiture of the Gods and forcing all living beings in the prehistoric world to choose sides, many living beings are more or less dissatisfied with us."

"There aren't many beings willing to join the Chan Sect, and even fewer willing to join the Celestial Court."

"Under these circumstances, even if the Celestial Court were to launch a full-scale war against the demon race, it wouldn't be able to inflict much damage on the latter, would it?"

“Second brother, you are too concerned about the situation on the chessboard. You haven’t thought about stepping out of the game.” Taiqing’s gaze was deep as he slowly spoke: “This demon race disrespects heaven and earth and all living beings in the primordial world. Everyone has the right to kill them!”

"The Eastern King Duke and his Celestial Court only revived to restore order and destroy the demon race."

"Shouldn't the beings of the primordial world join forces with the Celestial Court to fight against the demon race?"

"I understand!" Upon hearing this, Yuanshi instantly understood.

Taiqing's meaning is very simple: to continue using the Investiture of the Gods to threaten the billions of living beings in the prehistoric world.

They were forced to join forces with the Eastern King Duke's Celestial Court to fight against the demon race.

If anyone is unwilling, then their name will be added to the Investiture of the Gods!

As for what these creatures will think at that time?
It's ridiculous. How could the sages of the Heavenly Dao, such as Yuanshi and Taiqing, who are high above and regard all living beings as ants, care about these things?
"Ok?"

"Well, how brave!"

However, just as Yuanshi was about to execute his plan, he seemed to remember something, and his expression suddenly changed, his eyes blazing with boundless fury, as if capable of destroying everything.

Taiqing's expression also gradually darkened.

at the same time!

Kunlun!

Wanbaoge!
"Can you really exchange anything here?"

"That's great! I was just trying to exchange one of my acquired spiritual treasures that wasn't quite right for me for another one that was more suitable. I thought it wouldn't work, but it actually worked!"

"Haha, these injuries have been tormenting me for a long time. I just traded a treasure I didn't really need for a bottle of healing elixir, and now I'm all healed!"

"What's so special about these? This Wanbao Pavilion can actually directly trade cultivation points?"

"Although such cultivation is very superficial and will affect the upper limit, I have been stuck in my original realm for too long, and even thought that I would never break through."

"This Wanbao Pavilion is truly a treasure trove!"

"As long as we have the right 'capital,' we can trade anything."

"Unfortunately, I don't have anything of enough value to trade for the Primordial Dao Fruit, otherwise I would have liked to see if I could actually trade for it!"

"..."

Countless beings gathered in front of the Wanbao Pavilion, engaging in various transactions.

Moreover, it's clear that those who successfully completed the transaction were generally quite satisfied with the outcome.

These beings were either members of the Witch Clan who had not yet fully moved into the Underworld, or members of the Demon Clan with lower cultivation levels, or rogue cultivators who looked somewhat timid.

There are even a small number of humans.

"I see!"

"The Earthly Witch Clan has always stood on the side of the Primordial Beginning."

"The demon race was also the target that Yuanshi and his people wanted to destroy when they launched the Investiture of the Gods."

"They naturally have nothing to fear from any so-called Investiture of the Gods."

"And there are hundreds of millions of independent cultivators in the primordial world, it is impossible for everyone to be afraid of the Investiture of the Gods."

"There will inevitably be some bold or not-so-bright people who want to take a gamble!"

"Humans reproduce very quickly, so it's normal for some to want to take a gamble as well."

"That's why they're here at Wanbao Pavilion now."

"..."

In the primordial world, many beings were initially shocked when they discovered that someone dared to go to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, but gradually understood after discovering the identities of those people.

Although the number of these people is actually not large.

But at least it was the beginning.

All the myriad races of the primordial era possessed a herd mentality.

Most importantly, those beings who were among the first to trade at Wanbaoge did indeed receive satisfactory benefits.

If Yuanshi and his side do nothing, or even use some forceful means to curb it, then in the future, more and more beings will dare to risk being listed on the Investiture of the Gods and come to Wanbaoge.

The initial plan was still successful. Tianyuan Mountain!
"I wonder how Yuanshi and the others plan to deal with this next?" Tianyan murmured, gazing at the bustling scene at Wanbaoge.

"The establishment of Wanbaoge was recognized by both Houtu of the Earthly Dao and Nuwa of the Human Dao, and the Heavenly Dao cannot directly erase it." Qinglian said with unusually bright eyes, "Yuanshi, as a sage of the Heavenly Dao, will not easily deal with every living being who comes to our Wanbaoge to trade."

"With his Chan Sect, which has an insufficient number of disciples, and the Celestial Court, which was re-established with the support of Taiqing, what can he possibly achieve?"

"The aura of the Great Calamity has spread throughout the entire Primordial World. As long as one is in the Primordial World, even a Heavenly Dao Saint may not be able to remain unscathed." Tai Chu also slowly said, "Next, a great battle is inevitable."

"Let's see who has the last laugh."

As more and more beings began trading within the Wanbaoge (Treasure Pavilion).

Tai Chu could clearly feel that his understanding of the two great principles of trading and wealth was accelerating.

Through comprehending this Great Dao Law, he may be able to quickly comprehend all three thousand Great Dao Laws in the future and gain the qualification to challenge the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Once he can attain the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, dealing with Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao will be much easier for him.

In addition, Tai Chu had some preliminary ideas for the next steps.

However, it's not yet time for him to make his next move.

Taiqing Palace!
"These guys... they're asking for it!"

Do they really think we can't handle them?

"Hmph, in this great calamity of the conferment of gods, I will make sure to wipe out all the beings that oppose us!"

Since receiving the God-Slaying Whip bestowed by Hongjun Daozu, Yuanshi has been keeping a close eye on the situation at Wanbaoge.

Therefore, he immediately sensed what was happening inside the Wanbao Pavilion and was immediately furious.

Those ants dared to disobey his holy will and defy the will of Heaven?
"The demon race has defied the will of Heaven; their crime deserves extermination!"

"Those who disregard the warnings of Heaven and engage in transactions at Wanbaoge are guilty of the same crime as demons!"

"The Celestial Court was reborn to restore order, annihilate the demon race, and eliminate all other those who defied the will of Heaven."

"All the races of the primordial world should join forces with the Celestial Court to exterminate the demon race and all these sinners!"

"Those who violate this rule will be punished equally!"

A terrifying saintly aura erupted from Yuanshi, with three thousand Heavenly Dao Laws descending from behind him, causing the heavens and earth to tremble.

His voice also spread throughout the entire Three Realms, resounding in the ears of all living beings.

Immediately following, a golden list of deities appeared, stretching across the sky.

On the Investiture of the Gods, one name after another gradually appeared.

Those are the names of the beings who are now participating in the Wanbaoge transactions!
"really!"

"The Heavenly Saint will not stand idly by and watch the Wanbaoge's transactions continue."

"The Primordial Sage really did record the names of all the traders on the Investiture of the Gods."

"In this way, they will not only be restrained by the God-Slaying Whip."

"Once they perish, their souls will be trapped within the Investiture of the Gods, never to be free again!"

The countless creatures of the prehistoric world who witnessed this scene were all deeply shocked.

Many creatures that originally wanted to follow the Wanbao Pavilion showed obvious fear in their eyes and dared not make any rash moves.

"But what did the Primordial Sage mean by what he said later?"

"He not only forced us to stop trading at Wanbaoge, but also forced us to join forces with the Celestial Court to fight against the demon race and those who were listed on the Investiture of the Gods?"

"If we don't obey, will we also be listed on the Investiture of the Gods for defying the will of Heaven?"

"How could this be?"

However, when the billions of beings in the primordial world noticed what Yuanshi said next, their expressions turned grim.

Now that the Investiture of the Gods has begun ahead of schedule, every action they take could have serious consequences.

The best option is to find a secluded place to cultivate oneself asceticism and sever all ties with the outside world.

Now, however, Yuanshi wants to force them into this terrifying vortex.
For countless lives, this is tantamount to forcing them to their deaths!

But if they don't obey, they will be listed on the Investiture of the Gods and punished by the Heavenly Saints!
Neither side will have a good outcome!
At this moment, countless living beings were filled with rage towards Yuanshi.

Unfortunately, all those below the level of a sage are but ants.

Who cares about the ants under their feet, or whether they resent them?
Moreover, after hundreds or thousands of years have passed, even the greatest hatred will gradually fade away over a sufficiently long period of time.

Of course, for the beings of the prehistoric world now, the most important thing is to choose sides!

Tianyuan Mountain!
"Heh, Yuan Shi and his group are getting more and more insane." Qing Lian sneered, "Their actions will certainly further damage our Wanbao Pavilion and the demon race."

"But this will also make them increasingly unpopular in the wilderness."

"Perhaps they don't care now, but as long as they show signs of defeat in the future, these things will become our help in dealing with the Heavenly Dao!"

“Yes, now we’re just waiting for the right moment.” Tai Chu nodded, as if everything was under control.

The Heavenly Court, the Lingxiao Palace!
"Yuanshi is truly hateful!"

"They actually intend to have countless primordial beings, who were originally unrelated to us, join the Celestial Court in attacking us?"

Taiyi's face looked very unpleasant.

Originally, because time was still short, neither the Chan Sect nor the rebuilt Celestial Court had yet recruited a sufficient number of independent cultivators.

The countless creatures in the primordial world would not casually attack the demon race.

Therefore, the demon race has gone through a relatively short period of stability.

But at this moment, under Yuanshi's actions, not only were those who intended to go to Wanbaoge to make a deal dealt a blow, but the threat from the demon race was also almost imminent.

"The Celestial Court?" Di Jun's eyes were filled with boundless killing intent, and he said coldly, "Since Yuan Shi and the others want to use the Celestial Court as a pawn to incite countless beings to deal with my demon race."

"Then our demon race will directly declare war on the Celestial Court!"

"Let's see what they plan to use to deal with us now that the Celestial Court is gone?"

Purple Mansion Continent!
"Dong Wanggong!"

"Immediately order your Celestial Court to take in all living beings from the primordial era, annihilate the demon race, and destroy those who defy the will of Heaven and are listed on the Investiture of the Gods!"

Taiqing's unquestionable voice also reached the ears of Dongwanggong.

"Damn it, damn it!"

The Eastern King Lord let out a roar of impotent rage.

Because he knew very well that with the current strength of the Celestial Court, even with the addition of those primordial beings who were forced to participate in the war, it would still be very difficult to wipe out the demon race.

Moreover, Taiqing clearly doesn't care about his life or death; as long as he can inflict a corresponding blow on the demon race, that's enough!

Unfortunately, the Eastern King Duke's strength was still too weak in front of the Heavenly Dao Saint.

Not to mention, he was only able to be resurrected because of Taiqing.

He was utterly powerless to disobey Taiqing's orders! (End of Chapter)
