Primordial Era: Taking the blame to become a saint, proving one's path through eccentricity!

Chapter 380 [Cangjie Invents Characters, Double Pupils Open the Heavens]

On this day, countless Dao runes flowed within Cangjie's double pupils, learning from heaven and earth, and he finally glimpsed the wonders of the Dao from between heaven and earth.

Several eons ago, Cangjie had the idea of ​​creating human writing, but the incarnation of Taiqing Laozi asked him to postpone the creation of writing and instead study the writing of other races in the prehistoric world.

Dragon and phoenix script, unicorn script and demonic script, the Yang script of creation, the Yin script of creation, the ancient thunder pattern—even Cangjie didn't know how many kinds of script he had comprehended!

These words were all gleaned from the innate Dao by those with great supernatural powers.

Although their outward manifestations differ, the underlying consciousness and profound principles they embody are the same.

"One character, dozens of ways to write it—isn't that a betrayal of the great god Pangu?"

The thought arose in Cangjie's mind: he created the human writing system, which might allow the human race to have its own heritage.

But the primordial wilderness refers to the wilderness of all living beings, not just the wilderness of humankind. While his creation of human writing might have been of great benefit to humankind, the lack of a unified writing system ultimately meant little significance.

With the establishment of the Multiverse Trading Platform, the Universal Knowledge Space, and the Pure Land of All Heavens, trade among the various races in the prehistoric world has become increasingly frequent. However, low-level human cultivators, who generally do not know many types of writing, are unable to communicate effectively on these platforms.

In addition, some techniques may contain errors during translation.

For example, the Dragon Clan's cultivation methods are suitable for refining one's aura, the Witch Clan's cultivation methods are suitable for forging the physical body, and the Demon Clan's cultivation methods are suitable for tapping into the human body's potential.

Many insightful people among the human race are trying to modify the cultivation methods of other races and transform them into cultivation methods for the human race.

However, even after their modifications, the dragon race's cultivation methods remained in dragon script, and the demon race's cultivation methods remained in demon script, which was extremely detrimental to the inheritance of the human race.

If human writing could become the universal script of the primordial world, everything would naturally fall into place.

Of course, Cangjie did not intend to sever the writing systems of other races; he simply hoped that it would make it easier for cultivators of various races to exchange their inheritances.

In this way, cultivators in the Primordial True Realm only need to master two languages: one is the inherited language created by their own bloodline source, and the other is the common language of the Primordial Realm. This will enable them to communicate without barriers, and they will no longer need to learn the languages ​​of dozens of races!

However, how to make the universal script of the prehistoric world simple and easy to learn, so that ordinary beings could easily master it, required Cangjie to spend a lot of time figuring it out!

Furthermore, how to promote it after it is created is also a major problem!

He wanted his created script to become the universal script of the primordial world. Other powerful beings also wanted their created scripts to become the universal script of the primordial world, so that they could gather a lot of fortune for themselves!

However, he was not worried about this. Taiqing Laozi and the forces close to the Renjiao tradition would naturally find a way to promote it!

What he wants to do is to deduce a universal script that can be recognized by the Heavenly Dao!

In his eyes, everything in the world was transformed into symbols, which were then arranged and combined to form new symbols.

In the blink of an eye, three thousand characters appeared around him, possessing the elegance of dragon script, the agility of phoenix script, and the weightiness of unicorn script, but at its core, they symbolized the indomitable spirit of the human race!

"Heaven above, there is now a human being named Cangjie, who, observing the chaotic inheritance of the primordial world, wishes to establish a written language for humanity and transform it into the universal script for the primordial world!"

"May Heaven bear witness!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden dragon of fortune descended upon his auspicious cloud, which was part of the overall fortune of the human race.

Cangjie was a human, and he created the human script, so naturally he gained the recognition of the human race's fortune.

However, the Primordial Realm is not only inhabited by the human race. To gain recognition from other races, the intervention of the sage Laozi Taiqing is required.

A nine-dragon golden staff appeared in Taiqing Laozi's hand, connecting with the fortune of the Xuanmen, revealing the aura of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

This is a magical artifact he obtained during his three lectures at Zixiao Palace. It is related to the fortune of the Xuanmen sect and is a symbol of his status as the senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect.

If it doesn't involve doctrinal disputes, as the senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect, he could completely be the head of the Xuanmen lineage with the Nine Dragon Golden Staff.

"I, Taiqing, wish to represent the Xuanmen (mysterious sect) in upholding the human script as the universal script of the primordial world!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a vast fortune descended upon Cangjie.

But this is not the end!

At the instruction of Taiqing Laozi, his disciple Xuanjing, the Golden-Winged Roc, and the Four-Unlikes and Yellow Dragon Immortal from the Chan Sect, representing the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans, recognized the characters created by Cangjie.

Of the three of them, only the Four-Faced Beast truly represents the fortune of the Qilin clan; Huanglong Zhenren and Xuanjing are somewhat unqualified!

However, all they need to do is speak up!

They were just a starting point. Zulong and Yuanfeng would weigh the pros and cons. In Taiqing Laozi's view, even if the two did not support the universal script established by Cangjie, they would not be the first to stand up and oppose it!

Silence is the best attitude!

Just like the Great Luo Conference in Zixiao Palace, there are supporters, opponents, and abstainers. But as long as the number of Great Luo who support the conference exceeds the number of those who oppose it, a new trend of the Heavenly Dao can be formed!

But since Taiqing Laozi has already made his stance clear, even if other Great Luo Immortals and Great Supernatural Powers have opinions, how could they openly stand up and express their opposition?

As long as the other Great Luo and Great Supernatural Powers of the Dragon and Phoenix clans remain silent, then True Man Huanglong and the Four-Unlikes can temporarily represent the attitude of the two clans!

"Good! Good!"

Immediately afterward, the Guide Daoist spoke up: "The transmission of primordial writing systems is chaotic. Since young friend Cangjie is willing to step forward and establish a universal writing system for the primordial world, then our Western Regions are also willing to support your great and meritorious act!"

Although Buddhism has its own Sanskrit script, the emergence of a universal script from the prehistoric era also benefited the two Western saints in spreading Buddhism.

They naturally wouldn't object.

In addition, there was another reason: Taiqing Laozi promised benefits.

When Buddhism and Taoism flourish in the future, Taiqing Laozi will have his disciple Da Luo enter the Lonely Garden in an incarnation, so that the fortune of Buddhism will reach a new level.

The Xuanjing and Du'e sects of the Human Teachings were originally connected with Buddhism. Taiqing Laozi's actions can be seen as restoring the original natural order of Heaven.

In addition, Donghua Dijun and Yue Shen Wangshu will also send a branch of themselves to enter Buddhism, not to mention the future third-generation disciples of the Human Sect, such as Tianpeng and Ma Lingyao, who are destined to enter Buddhism!

Although these people are not of the same mind as Buddhism, as long as they practice both Buddhist and Taoist systems, they can contribute to Buddhism, Taoism, and the Solitary Garden!

The Guide Daoist would naturally not refuse!

As the guide made his statement, a stream of Western fortune transformed into a beam of light and merged into the auspicious cloud of literature above Cangjie's head.

For a moment, the great Luo and great supernatural beings of the Primordial True Realm were all shaken to their core. It was rare for the Xuanmen and Buddhist sects to have the same attitude!

"What a magnificent Taiqing!"

The one most dissatisfied with this matter was undoubtedly Kunpeng, who created the demonic script.

Although the universal script of the primordial world will not directly replace the demon script, it will take away a share of the fortune from the being who created the demon script.

But at this moment, Canghe has the moral high ground, and both the Xuanmen and Buddhist sects have already recognized him, so he can only choose to swallow this bitter pill!

But just then, an untimely voice rang out: "Unifying the writing system of the Primordial Realm is indeed a great deed! But I observe that the characters created by Cangjie are not perfect. It would be better if we all participated in perfecting them!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked toward the source of the sound and saw Xuan Yin's Asura clone, shrouded in mist, sitting cross-legged on the Ninth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus.

Cangjie couldn't help but ask, "The characters I created encompass the wonders of all the ancient scripts. May I ask where you find them imperfect, fellow Daoist?"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Zhang burst into laughter and said, "Fellow Daoist Cangjie, are you sure that the characters you created truly contain all the wonders of the primordial writing system?"

"Could there be anything we've overlooked?"

Hearing Fu Zhang's confident tone, Cang Jie suddenly felt a little insecure.

"nature!"

Fu Zhang laughed and said, "Your writing contains characters from dragons, phoenixes, unicorns, witches, demons, and even Sanskrit from Buddhism. But have you forgotten that in the Primordial True Realm, there are not only the paths of immortals and Buddhas, but also the paths of gods and demons? Your writing seems to lack the true meaning of the paths of gods and demons?"

The four paths of immortals, demons, gods, and Buddhas are all complete systems, and the number of cultivators is as numerous as the sands of the Ganges. Laozi of Taiqing and the Daoist of Reception may represent the Xuanmen and Buddhist paths, but they cannot represent the paths of gods and demons!

However, Xuan Yin, as the dark side of the divine path and the second-generation Luo recognized by the demonic path, is sufficient to represent the will of both the divine and demonic paths when Donghuang Taiyi and Mozu Luo do not appear.

He didn't want to stop Cangjie from attaining enlightenment; he just wanted to take the opportunity to share some benefits and prevent the fortune of the universal script of the prehistoric world from falling entirely into the hands of the Human Sect.

Unifying the written language was an inevitable trend, and Cangjie held the moral high ground. There was no benefit in trying to stop it, but it didn't prevent others from getting a share of the benefits.

The actions of Cangjie alone were transformed into actions involving many powerful beings.

Before Cangjie could speak, golden and black divine and demonic runes appeared around the barrier.

The divine script was created by Taiyi incarnate as Dongjun, while the demonic script was created by Xuanyin. What will he, as the second-generation Luo Zong, do?

Xuan Yin had long discovered Taiqing's taking Cangjie as a disciple and Cangjie's research on writing. The reason he had remained inactive was to wait for the crucial moment to pull other powerful beings into sharing the fortune.

"and----"

Fu Zhang slowly spoke, "Fellow Daoist, is your understanding of other scripts truly sufficient? Do you dare say that your understanding of demon script surpasses that of Fellow Daoist Kunpeng? Do you dare say that your understanding of dragon script surpasses that of Fellow Daoist Yinglong, who created it? And what about the witch script created by the Ancestral Witch Xuanming?"

Upon hearing this, Cangjie was stunned. He was merely the one who organized and unified the script; how could he possibly surpass the creator in understanding other scripts?

Therefore, he had no way to refute what Fuzhang said!

Boom!

As Cangjie fell silent, his path to enlightenment was interrupted, and his cultivation level became stuck between the Taiyi Golden Immortal and the Daluo Golden Immortal realms.

For Cangjie, if he wanted to establish his doctrine through writing, he had to unify all the written characters. The sudden appearance of divine and demonic scripts caught him off guard and created new possibilities for the future.

This prevented him from converging all the timelines and completing the final leap!

"Fellow Daoist Fuzhang is right. Since it is a universal script used throughout the primordial world, it should be discussed and decided by all the heavens, just like the Great Luo Conference at Zixiao Palace!"

"How can one person make the decision?"

Seeing Fuzhang leading the charge, the demon master Kunpeng immediately chimed in, and Yinglong, Xuanming, and other beings who created the race's writing system also nodded in agreement.

If you can't beat them, join them. Since the emergence of the universal script of the primordial world is unstoppable, why not take this opportunity to share in its fortune?

Kunpeng, possessing unparalleled speed and the power of a near-sage, instantly appeared before Cangjie: "In the characters you created, fellow Daoist, some of the true meanings of the demon race are not quite in harmony. If you don't mind, I can offer some guidance to you, thus fulfilling your merits!"

"Absolutely! Absolutely!"

Yinglong and other great masters who had created a script for their race also chimed in, saying, "We are also willing to contribute our modest efforts to the birth of a universal script for the primordial world, and we hope that Fellow Daoist Cangjie will grant us permission!"

Cangjie had no choice but to nod and say, "In that case, I'll trouble you fellow Daoists!"

Now that things have come to this, he has no other choice but to involve Kunpeng and the others. Although they might share some of the fortune that led to the creation of the universal script in the primordial world, at least he can successfully prove his Dao.

But if he doesn't agree, then he will be the one who loses the moral high ground!

"What a brilliant move to strike at the heart of the problem!"

Taiqing Laozi's expression remained unchanged, but his tone of voice betrayed him; he had not anticipated this situation at all.

However, it's not a big problem; it just means a smaller share of the luck!

Under Fuzhang's leadership, Kunpeng, Xuanming, Yinglong, and others joined in. Even the Daoist Jieyin, who had previously spoken out in support of Cangjie, couldn't help but get involved himself.

He was the creator of Sanskrit in Buddhism!

As one of the basic cultivation paths in the primordial world, in order to distinguish Buddhism and Taoism from immortality, the Guide Daoist would naturally create a script specifically for Buddhism!

After an unknown period of time, the universal script of the primordial world, perfected by dozens of powerful beings, manifested in the primordial true world accompanied by a sky full of purple aura.

This time, no one objected. Even the Dragon and Phoenix clans, who had previously chosen to remain silent, expressed their support at this moment.

Fu Zhang then took out a divine stele that had been prepared long ago and inscribed the universal script of the primordial world, which was jointly deduced by Cangjie, Kunpeng, and others, on it.

This action filled the Guide Daoist with regret: "Why didn't I think of this? Even if the universal script of the primordial world were deduced, it would still need a medium, a suitable object to be inscribed upon it!"

Boom!

This is a matter of education and enlightenment, and also a matter of great merit; Heaven bestows merit upon us instantly.

Four-tenths of his merits fell into Cangjie's body, three-tenths fell into the divine stele made by the barrier, and the remaining three-tenths were divided up by other powerful beings.

With the matter of the universal writing system in the primordial world settled and Heaven bestowing merit upon him, Cangjie's breakthrough to the Great Luo realm can be said to be a natural progression.

As Cangjie began his tribulation, everyone's gaze fell upon Fuzhang.

To be precise, it was on the golden, gleaming stele of merit in Fuzhang's hands.

A quasi-sage who called himself the Great Evolution True Man immediately spoke up: "Fellow Daoist Fuzhang, the universal script of the primordial world on this merit stele was deduced by us all. You don't intend to monopolize it, do you?"

This merit stele is a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure crafted by Fuzhang. After receiving the blessing of merit, it has become a merit spiritual treasure.

If it spreads with the common script of the primordial world, and endless fortune gathers, it may very well become a treasure of acquired merit in the future.

Holding this treasure would bring endless good fortune, so naturally, no one wanted to miss it.

"Of course not!"

With a thought, Fu Zhang split the merit stele into thirty-three smaller steles, which fell into the hands of Da Yan Zhenren and the other participants. Fu Zhang even reserved one for Cang Jie.

"Since you all participated, you should naturally receive a share of the fortune. As for the mother monument, it would be better to place it within the origin of humanity!"

With a wave of his hand, the Merit Mother Stele, inscribed with the universal script of the primordial world, transformed into a golden stream of light and vanished before everyone's eyes, falling into the Gate of Myriad Wonders, symbolizing the origin of humanity.

As for the sub-steles, all thirty powerful beings involved in this matter possessed one, while the remaining three belonged to Fuzhang, Cangjie, and Taiyi, respectively.

no way!

Since Cangjie was the mastermind, the demonic path and the divine path also got involved.

"good!"

Kunpeng nodded in satisfaction.

As for the others, although they coveted that Mother Stele of Merit, none of them had any way to retrieve it from the source of humanity!

Having obtained a memorial tablet and received the blessing of literary fortune, this trip has already been worthwhile!

On the other side, Cangjie also successfully survived the Heavenly Tribulation and broke through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. He then directly used his double pupils to create his own Great Luo Heaven!

It is interwoven with Taoist texts, permeated with merits, and has the foundation of moral purple energy.

Divine light flashed continuously in his double pupils. With a thought, the merit tablet left to him by the barrier became the object of suppression in the Great Luo Heaven.

Other powerful beings, including the Guide Daoist, all left one after another. Fu Zhang did not linger either, but only gave Cang Jie a meaningful look!

"Fellow Daoist Cangjie!"

"You'd better just do nothing!"

"Otherwise, even if you have the merit of creating a universal script for all time, you will inevitably be caught up in the sage's schemes and the great calamity to come!"

"I certainly don't want my next appearance to be to send off your primordial civilization ancestor!"
