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

Chapter 288 Return to the Primordial World! Lu Yun Opens the Primordial Spirit Immortal Network! The Heavenly Dao faction is dumbfounded!

Lu Yun's figure vanished without a trace, leaving Guanyin standing there stunned, her expression uncertain.

She never expected that Lu Yun would choose to leave at such a crucial moment, thwarting all her plans.

Just then, the Buddha's light shone brightly, and Tathagata arrived at the scene. Guanyin quickly flew towards him.

Buddha scanned the surroundings but did not find Lu Yun. Somewhat puzzled, he looked at Guanyin and asked, "Where did that person go?"

Guanyin quickly reported the situation to Tathagata.

After hearing this, Buddha's expression darkened slightly. He hadn't expected that Guanyin would suffer such a great loss in front of a mysterious Great Immortal.

However, he did not blame Guanyin too much, because he knew that although Guanyin was powerful, she was indeed difficult to deal with a mysterious powerhouse like Lu Yun.

He reassured them, "Don't worry, we will definitely catch them and retrieve your jade bottle!"

Then, he used his supernatural powers to carefully investigate the surrounding situation, while Guanyin watched expectantly from the side.

"Buzz!"

The Buddha closed his eyes and concentrated, gently clasped his hands together, surrounded by a halo of light, as if resonating with heaven and earth, and began to unleash his all-encompassing supernatural power—the all-seeing eye of wisdom.

His gaze pierced through the void, scanning every inch of space around him, trying to capture any trace or hint left by Lu Yun.

However, as time passed, the Buddha's expression gradually became solemn.

He frowned, secretly astonished: Who exactly is this person, that he could so thoroughly erase his whereabouts?

After a fruitless investigation, Tathagata slowly opened his eyes, a hint of embarrassment and helplessness flashing in them.

He sighed softly and said to Guanyin, "I have used my wisdom to observe the world, yet I have failed to find any trace of that mysterious person. How strange indeed!"

Upon hearing this, Guanyin frowned, her heart filled with resentment. However, she quickly adjusted her mindset and suggested, "World Honored One, this person's strength is unfathomable, and his actions are mysterious and unpredictable. It is feared that our Buddhist sect alone will find it difficult to capture him. Why don't we go to the Heavenly Court and ask the Jade Emperor for assistance? Perhaps we can use the power of the Heavenly Court to find out this person's origins."

The Buddha nodded slightly, a profound meaning flashing in his eyes.

He naturally knew that Guanyin's suggestion was not only to find Lu Yun, but also to take this opportunity to test the Heavenly Court's attitude and see if Lu Yun was related to the Heavenly Court.

After all, in the Three Realms, a powerful figure who can conceal their whereabouts to such an extent is no ordinary person; they are likely supported by a powerful force behind them.

Then, Buddha and Guanyin transformed into two beams of Buddhist light, broke through the sky, and headed straight for the Heavenly Court.

Soon after, the two arrived at the Lingxiao Palace and were received by the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor sat high on his dragon throne, his gaze deep, as if he already knew the purpose of their visit.

However, he smiled slightly and asked, "Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, may I ask what brings you here together?"

Buddha and Guanyin exchanged a glance, and then Buddha spoke, telling the Jade Emperor everything about Lu Yun. They described in detail Lu Yun's strength, whereabouts, and mysterious methods, revealing their deep curiosity and fear about Lu Yun's origins.

However, when the two looked at the Jade Emperor with anticipation, he only shook his head slightly and sighed, "You two are unaware of this. That person's whereabouts are mysterious, and his strength is extraordinary. I have tried to deduce his origins, but to no avail. This person does not seem to belong to any known force in the Three Realms, and there may be a deeper secret hidden behind him."

Upon hearing the Jade Emperor's words, Buddha and Guanyin exchanged bewildered glances, their hearts filled with doubt and uncertainty. They hadn't expected that even the Jade Emperor, the ruler of the Three Realms, couldn't discern Lu Yun's origins, which only further proved Lu Yun's mystery and power.

For a moment, the hall fell silent.

Buddha and Guanyin were secretly planning their next move, while the Jade Emperor gazed into the distance with a deep look, seemingly pondering the various mysteries surrounding Lu Yun.

Inside the live stream, everyone was astonished when the live stream suddenly switched to Lu Yun's universe.

"Did Boss Lu Yun just grab the stuff and run?"

"Hahaha, even Guanyin is probably furious!"

"Lu Yun's move was truly unexpected!"

"Lu Yun, you're amazing!"

"You even managed to trick Guanyin out of her jade vase!"

"Hahaha, this is going to be a real headache for Buddhism!"

……

Lu Yun simply grinned and said to everyone, "My incarnation is already the limit for dealing with Guanyin. If we add Tathagata to the mix, we'll probably have to resort to even more methods. Let's leave it at that for now."

After a slight pause, he continued, "Let's consider this a preliminary greeting to the Journey to the West world, leaving them with some suspense before we go and have some fun later! Next, let's deal with the Primordial World's Genius Competition first!"

As he spoke, he first turned off the live stream, and then took out the Illustrated Compendium of All Heavens, temporarily sealing off the passage to the Journey to the West world, preparing to play with it slowly later.

Even his avatar, which he originally arranged in the Journey to the West world, has now been temporarily sent to other worlds.

Then, while playing with the jade bottle he had just acquired, he looked at the transmigration chat group.

Lu Yun: "@Everyone, how are you all preparing for the Genius Competition? It's about to start!"

Qiu Wanli: "No problem!"

Lin Chen: "I'm ready to compete anytime!"

Qin Ling: "Hehe, I can't wait to have a good match with the geniuses of the primordial world!"

Jiang Ye: "Enough! You three big shots arrived in the Primordial World ahead of time, so of course you've made ample preparations!"

Liu Chongxiao: "To be honest, I think I can still improve a bit more, but it would be great to continue improving during the competition!"

Lu Yun watched the lively discussion in the group chat and felt a surge of anticipation.

This competition is not only a test of the group members' abilities, but also an important step in his future planning.

"Now that everyone is ready, I'll head back and begin the competition."

Lu Yun sent a message in the group, then closed the chat and refocused his attention on the jade bottle in front of him.

Without much hesitation, he made his decision: "Let's take this as one of the prizes for this competition!"

Afterwards, Lu Yun sent his avatars to continue conquering more worlds, while his true self left his universe and returned to the primordial world.

On the vast land, in the Wucheng city at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, the top experts of the Humanity faction and the Earth faction have gathered together.

They have made all the preparations for this Primordial Genius Competition and are just waiting for Lu Yun's return to officially start the competition.

Nuwa, Houtu, the Xihe sisters, Zhen Yuanzi, Hongyun, Dijiang and other powerful figures stood on the high platform of Wucheng, gazing into the distance with expectant light in their eyes.

"Why hasn't Lu Yun arrived yet?" Hongyun asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, His Majesty the Holy Emperor said he would come, and he definitely will," Zhen Yuanzi reassured him.

Just then, a beam of light pierced the sky and landed directly on the high platform of Wucheng. Everyone looked over and saw Lu Yun's figure slowly appear, smiling at them.

"Your Majesty the Holy Emperor!" Everyone bowed, their eyes filled with respect and excitement.

Lu Yun smiled and nodded, saying, "Is everyone ready? The Genius Competition is about to begin."

"Everything is ready, awaiting only His Majesty's command!" the crowd responded in unison.

Lu Yun nodded in satisfaction, then announced loudly, "Alright! Now, the Primordial Genius Competition officially begins!"

He casually took out the Kongtong Seal and projected it directly onto the sky above Wucheng, revealing all the participants who were preparing to participate in the competition on the primordial land.

Looking around, the figures of humans, witches, ghosts, demons, and countless other geniuses from various races of the prehistoric world appeared before everyone's eyes.

Nuwa, Houtu, and the others discovered that none of the participants they had prepared had been missed!

This surprised them all.

Because while they were preparing for all of this, Lu Yun was busy with other things, yet he still managed to know everything perfectly, which made them admire him.

Lu Yun's actions were just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, he activated the Kongtong Seal again, mobilizing the power of humanity.

next moment--

"Buzz!"

In the primordial Three Realms, countless beings suddenly heard Lu Yun's voice.

Lu Yun solemnly declared to all beings of the Three Realms: "All beings of the Primordial World, I am Lu Yun, the Holy Emperor of Humanity. Today, the Primordial Genius Competition is about to officially begin, and I'm sure everyone is eagerly anticipating it! However, I also know that it's not easy for everyone to watch the competition, so before the competition officially begins, I will create a new world in the Primordial World, named the Yuanling Immortal Network, to facilitate everyone's viewing!"

Within the chaos, inside the Purple Cloud Palace.

In the midst of chaos, within the Purple Cloud Palace, the Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the various saints of the Heavenly Dao camp gathered together, awaiting the start of the Primordial Genius Competition.

At this critical moment, a melodious and grand voice suddenly echoed within the Zixiao Palace. It was Lu Yun's voice, piercing through the chaos and reaching everyone's ears.

"Lu Yun..."

Laozi frowned slightly, a profound and indescribable shock welling up within him. "This child's supernatural powers have reached such a level, actually able to transmit his voice across the chaos to this place!"

The other sages, upon hearing this, also displayed varying expressions: some were surprised, some were solemn, and most were wary. They all looked at Hongjun, awaiting his instructions.

Hongjun closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then slowly opened them and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, please listen carefully and see what Lu Yun's plans are."

Upon hearing this, everyone focused their attention and listened carefully to Lu Yun's voice.

"...Today, the Primordial Genius Competition will officially begin...I will create a new world in the Primordial World, named the Yuanling Immortal Network, to facilitate everyone's viewing..." Lu Yun's voice continued, causing the saints in Zixiao Palace to look at each other, their doubts deepening.

"Yuanling Immortal Network? What kind of place is this?" Laozi muttered to himself, his brows furrowed.

"Could it be that Lu Yun is also going to establish a Daoist temple?" Yuanshi Tianzun guessed, but then shook his head. "But the name sounds quite different from the Daoist temple we're establishing."

"Moreover, he said it was for the convenience of watching the battle..." A hint of curiosity flashed in the eyes of the Tongtian Sect Leader, "What exactly is so mysterious about this Yuanling Immortal Net?"

Hongjun did not rush to answer everyone's questions, but continued to listen patiently to Lu Yun's explanation.

"The so-called Yuanling Immortal Network is a spiritual world that covers the primordial land, or you could say it's another illusory primordial world..." Lu Yun's voice was clear and firm, as if he were unveiling a brand new chapter for all the creatures of the primordial world.

"The spiritual world? A phantom primordial wilderness?"

Upon hearing this, the saints in Zixiao Palace were all shocked. They began to realize that what Lu Yun was talking about seemed to be far beyond their imagination.

"As long as one is on the primordial land, with a thought, one's consciousness can enter the Primordial Spirit Immortal Network..." Lu Yun's voice continued, making the saints even more shocked. "Even those with only the cultivation of refining essence into qi can enter it and roam the primordial world."

"This..." The saints in Zixiao Palace looked at each other, their hearts filled with disbelief.

They never imagined that such a being existed, capable of breaking the limitations of cultivation and allowing all primordial beings to have a glimpse of the vast and boundless primordial world.

Hongjun Daozu pondered for a moment, a trace of solemnity and apprehension flashing in his eyes.

He knew that Lu Yun's actions were not simply for the convenience of watching the battle, but also to further consolidate and expand the influence and status of his humanity in the prehistoric world.

"We'll explore the many other wonders later! Today, let's join together to witness the grand spectacle of the inaugural Primordial Genius Competition!"

As soon as Lu Yun finished speaking, countless beings in the Three Realms heard a crisp "ding" sound, as if some mysterious being had been born!

The next moment, everyone had a feeling that they could enter another new world with just a thought!

Several Heavenly Saints were itching to try it out, but dared not act rashly, and could only look to Hongjun.

To their astonishment, they saw Hongjun suddenly stand up, his face filled with shock and anger!

The sages were all taken aback for a moment, but they soon realized why Hongjun had lost his composure.

Because they were all horrified to realize that the fortunes of the three realms in the primordial world had suddenly undergone a drastic change at this moment.

It seems that the birth of Lu Yun's so-called Yuanling Immortal Network has caused the human race's fortune to suddenly surge!

At the same time, they were even more shocked to discover that the three world rules of Heaven, Earth, and Man all manifested on their own, and all of them gave Lu Yun in Wucheng a huge amount of merit rewards!

The scale of the merit far exceeded anything they had ever seen before, to the point that they all lost their composure!

"How is this possible?" Jieyin exclaimed, his eyes wide.

"How could this be?" Yuanshi was stunned.

"This reward is just too amazing!" Tongtian couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

"What on earth did Lu Yun do?!" Zhunti exclaimed in shock.
