Transmigrating to a chat group: After heeding advice, I became the ruler of the primordial world.

Chapter 266 All Forces in the Primordial World Mobilize! The Choice of the Qilin Clan!

In fact, not only was Hongjun bewildered, but even the humans in front of Lu Yun did not understand what Lu Yun meant.

Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, Lu Yun smiled slightly and explained, "The Primordial Genius Competition is a grand event that brings together geniuses from all realms of the Primordial World. Whether they are human, witch, demon, or any other race, any young talent under the age of one thousand can register to participate."

"The competition will be divided into multiple stages, starting with preliminary rounds in various regions, with each stage selecting the most outstanding geniuses to go to the Path of Humanity to prove their Dao for a formal showdown. Only those who have opened up the Path of Humanity can go to Buzhou Mountain for the final battle."

"The rewards for the competition will be extremely generous, including not only rare spiritual treasures and cultivation techniques, but also the opportunity to gain recognition from the human and the earthly, and to obtain more resources and opportunities on the path to enlightenment."

Everyone who heard this was tempted.

The younger members of the race, especially Fuxi, all had flushed faces.

They knew this was not just an ordinary game, but a chance to change their destiny.

Fuxi was even more excited, his heart filled with fighting spirit. He knew that although he was exceptionally talented, the primordial world was full of hidden talents and geniuses. He longed to prove himself in this competition and bring glory to the human race.

Looking at the light gleaming in Fuxi's eyes, Lu Yun's heart was filled with anticipation.

Following Fuxi's original path of growth, he could naturally have become the Human Emperor, but because humanity was suppressed, such a Human Emperor could only be considered a Quasi-Saint, not a true Saint.

Humanity is not being suppressed now, and since he is the one who is cultivating the Human Emperor, he naturally needs to achieve more than the original Fuxi should have!

This Primordial Genius Competition is a stage he prepared for Fuxi!

In the following period, Lu Yun, Nuwa, and others became busy preparing for the first Primordial Genius Competition.

Meanwhile, Lu Yun also secretly communicated with the members of the time-traveling chat group, listening to their suggestions and opinions on the competition. The group members offered many valuable suggestions for the preparation of the competition.

Subsequently, they jointly announced the matter to the Three Realms of the Primordial World, and released detailed competition rules, registration methods, and reward system, which immediately attracted the attention of countless beings in the Primordial World.

The Primordial Genius Competition has become the hottest topic of discussion in the Primordial World!

After some observation, Hongjun finally understood the general purpose of Lu Yun's plan.

This was actually an action similar to his deification ceremony!

In Hongjun's view, the powerful figures selected in the so-called Primordial Genius Competition are similar to the Heavenly Court Gods selected by his Heavenly Dao camp. They can enjoy the fortune of the human race and many resources, and quickly grow into the backbone of the human and earthly Dao camps!

However, this action differs significantly from his efforts to establish deities.

First of all, according to Lu Yun's idea, this is the first session, and more sessions will be held in the future, which means that each session is creating a new "god"!

Moreover, judging from this selection method, the geniuses of the Human Path and Earth Path camps will be very active in participating, unlike the Heaven Path camp where several saints will only shirk their responsibilities.

Thinking of this, Hongjun's mood suddenly turned sour.

He immediately checked the Investiture of the Gods list floating above the South Gate of Heaven and found that there were indeed many more names on it. However, most of them were beings who had ascended to Heaven from the primordial land in recent years. At most, they could serve as many insignificant miscellaneous gods, and there were very few who were suitable to be the true gods of Heaven!

Without a doubt, after Yuanshi and the others returned, they would not only fail to persuade their disciples to be included on the Investiture of the Gods list, but they might even try to persuade their disciples not to be included!

Hongjun was very suspicious that by the time Lu Yun had finished holding this year's Primordial Genius Competition, the 365 Heavenly Gods on the Investiture of the Gods list still wouldn't be all gathered.

"Looks like we need to put some pressure on them!"

Hongjun's expression darkened, and he directly transmitted his voice to the saints of the Heavenly Dao camp.

After receiving the message from Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the saints of the Heavenly Dao camp each felt different emotions.

They all noticed the commotion Lu Yun had caused on the prehistoric land and naturally understood that Hongjun Daozu wanted them to increase their efforts in promoting the Investiture of the Gods in order to solidify the position of the Heavenly Dao in the prehistoric world.

As the head of the Three Pure Ones, Laozi, upon receiving the order, set off for Zixiao Palace without hesitation. After all, he had even sent out his benevolent self to substitute for his disciple on the list; surely the Dao Ancestor couldn't ask him for anything more!

Although the other sages felt somewhat helpless, they understood that this was the will of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, which they could not disobey. Therefore, they quickly emerged from their respective Daoist temples and headed towards Zixiao Palace.

Just as the sages were heading to Zixiao Palace again, in Shouyang City on the primordial land...

The three ancestors of the human race—Suiren, Youchao, and Ziyi—stood on a high platform in the center of the city, their gazes sweeping over the more than ten thousand cultivators at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level below.

These cultivators were the best among the human race, selected to handle the preliminary selection activities in various regions for the first Primordial Genius Competition.

Suirenshi cleared his throat and said in a loud voice, "Everyone, the reason I have gathered you here today is for the upcoming inaugural Primordial Genius Competition. This competition is of great significance, not only concerning the future of our human race, but also serving as a comprehensive test of our human race's strength."

Youchao took over the conversation, his expression serious, and said, "The competition will be divided into multiple stages, starting with preliminary rounds in various regions, selecting the most outstanding geniuses to go on the path of human enlightenment to compete. This is not only a test for the participants, but also a challenge for us organizers."

Ziyi added, "To ensure the smooth running of the competition, we require everyone to be conscientious and responsible in handling the preliminary events in various locations. No detail can be overlooked, and every step must be done to perfection."

The more than 10,000 Taiyi Golden Immortals below all stood solemnly, knowing the importance of this competition and understanding the responsibility they bore.

They shouted in unison, "We will do our utmost and live up to your expectations!"

The sound was deafening, echoing throughout the entire city of Shouyang.

at the same time--

In the outer starry sky, Xihe and Changxi personally dispatched their respective benevolent corpses to summon the leaders of the demon race and held an emergency meeting. Following Lu Yun's instructions, they began to mobilize the young talents of the demon race to participate in the first Primordial Genius Competition.

Within the Nine Netherworld, Emperor Jiang personally summoned the great shamans of various tribes of the Witch Clan to discuss how to select the most outstanding young members of the Witch Clan to participate in the competition.

In the boundless sea, the Dragon Clan also received Lu Yun's notification. Zhulong personally summoned the clan's strongest members to discuss countermeasures. They understood that although the Dragon Clan's status in the primordial world was not what it used to be, this competition was still a rare opportunity for them.

Leaders of various factions sprang into action, either personally inspecting the preparations for the primaries in different regions or dispatching their capable subordinates to oversee the execution.

The entire prehistoric world was bustling with excitement because of the upcoming first Prehistoric Genius Competition.

Within Leize City.

After seeing off the congratulatory guests, Fuxi returned to his residence alone, his heart filled with anticipation and longing for the upcoming Primordial Genius Competition.

Afterwards, he calmed his mind, took out the "Hun Yuan Jing" given to him by Lu Yun, and began to cultivate diligently.

As the cultivation technique circulated, a mysterious power surged around Fuxi. This power seemed to originate from the heavens and earth, intimately connected to his bloodline, giving him an unprecedented sense of strength and confidence.

"Buzz!"

The spiritual energy within Leize City seemed to be summoned by some force, converging and flowing into Fuxi's body to aid his cultivation.

Above Leize, thunder rumbled and lightning flashed, but Fuxi seemed to be in a state of tranquility, his mind completely immersed in cultivation.

His aura grew stronger and stronger, and a faint light emanated from his body, as if he had merged with heaven and earth!

As his cultivation deepened, Fuxi's strength increased rapidly. He could clearly feel his meridians expanding, his magical power growing, and his understanding of heaven and earth becoming increasingly profound.

"This technique is simply too powerful!"

Fuxi was incredibly excited. However, he quickly calmed himself down.

Fuxi also understood that improving one's cultivation level was only the foundation; to become a true powerhouse, he needed more practical combat experience.

After much deliberation, he decided to bid farewell to his mother and venture out to gain experience.

When he told his mother about his decision, she was worried, but she also understood that this was a necessary step in Fuxi's growth. She tearfully bid farewell to Fuxi and told him to be careful.

When Fuxi left Leize City, he was surprised to find that the young human race members who had passed the selection process all expressed their desire to follow him on his training journey.

Clearly, these young men had realized the gap between themselves and Fuxi, and were inspired by Fuxi's unwavering faith and courage. They longed to train with him to improve themselves and bring glory to Leize City.

"In that case, let's work hard together!"

Fuxi gladly accepted their request and led a group of passionate youths on a journey of trials. They traversed mountains and rivers, challenged various perils, and each battle helped them grow stronger.

Months later, Fuxi led a group of passionate youths to a mysterious volcanic land. The volcano stood majestically, its lava churning within its crater, its flames raging as if to devour the entire world.

Fuxi and the others stood at the foot of the volcano, gazing at the magnificent sight before them. Their hearts were filled with awe, but they were not deterred by the volcano.

Just as they were crossing a scorching lava field, suddenly, a group of fire-type beasts rushed out from the depths of the volcano. These beasts were enormous, their bodies engulfed in raging flames, and their eyes gleamed with a ferocious light.

They roared and launched a fierce attack on Fuxi and the others.

A fierce battle was about to break out, and Fuxi and the others fought back with all their might. However, the strength of the fire-type beasts far exceeded their expectations. The flames they breathed seemed capable of burning everything, plunging Fuxi and the others into a bitter struggle.

As time went on, Fuxi and the others gradually felt overwhelmed. Although they tried their best, the fire-type beasts were numerous and powerful, and they were simply unable to resist them.

Fuxi's companions fell one after another. Although Fuxi was capable of discussing the matter alone, he did not do so. Instead, he chose to protect his companions and continue fighting against these strange beasts.

Just as he was about to exhaust his strength and be killed by the alien beast, suddenly—

"roar!"

A deafening roar echoed from the depths of the volcano.

Fuxi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a Qilin rushing out from the depths of the volcano.

It was covered in flames and looked small, but its eyes gleamed with intelligence and it exuded a powerful aura that instilled fear in the surrounding fire-type beasts.

The Qilin let out a long roar, which caused the fire-type beasts to retreat.

Then, it actually walked up to Fuxi and bowed its head in submission.

"this"

Fuxi was surprised, but he also felt the Qilin's goodwill and powerful strength.

However, he did not immediately accept the Qilin, but instead asked, "Why have you chosen to submit to me?"

Qilin's answer was straightforward: "Because I have high hopes for your future!"

"This Qilin actually thinks so highly of me?" Fuxi thought to himself in amazement.

He felt that this was a significant turning point in his journey of growth.

If he could get the help of this Qilin, it would be of great benefit to his future training or his participation in the Primordial Genius Competition!

After much deliberation, he finally accepted the qilin as his mount.

Just as Fuxi had anticipated, with the help of the Qilin, Fuxi and his companions thrived in this volcanic land. The Qilin not only possessed immense strength but also had an intimate knowledge of the volcanic terrain.

Under its guidance, Fuxi and the others successfully weathered the crisis and obtained many precious cultivation resources, resulting in a significant increase in their strength.

Nuwa, who had been silently observing Fuxi's growth, naturally noticed the Qilin immediately. She promptly told Lu Yun about it.

To this, Lu Yun simply smiled and said, "Has the Qilin clan finally lost their temper?"

The Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans, once the three overlords of the prehistoric world, have all declined since the Dragon-Han Calamity. The Dragon clan still has a strong presence in the prehistoric world due to its rapid reproduction. The Phoenix clan is slightly inferior, but it submitted to Nuwa early on and is doing quite well now.

As for the Qilin clan, they disappeared for many years, lying dormant deep within the primordial earth veins. Even when Lu Yun caused such a commotion in the past, they were never seen showing up.

Unexpectedly, he couldn't resist coming out now and chose to invest in Fuxi.

Judging from the bloodline concentration of that little Qilin, it clearly holds a prominent position within the Qilin clan. In a sense, if Fuxi truly grows up, it would be tantamount to the Qilin clan directly submitting to him!

In this way, the Qilin clan will naturally become one of the forces of humanity in the future!

Therefore, Lu Yun was quite happy to see things turn out this way.

However, Yuanshi, who was in charge of the Heavenly Court's investiture of gods, was rather displeased!
