Primordial Era: I, Emperor Donghua, establish the Immortal Court

Chapter 1: Emperor Donghua, with Heaven-Defying Comprehension

In the primordial world, at the Purple Cloud Palace.

Among the three thousand guests of the Purple Cloud Pavilion, a young man slowly awoke, his eyes filled with confusion.

"Where am I?"

Wang Dong wondered to himself.

Just then, a sacred sound, faint and ethereal, like the voice of the Great Dao, resounded throughout the surroundings.

"...I, the Daoist Hongjun, will preach today, and all living beings of the primordial world may listen..."

Wang Dong was stunned.

Hongjun Daoist?

The primordial era?

Could it be... that I've traveled to the primordial world, to the timeline where Hongjun was just giving his sermon?!

boom!

Just then, a stream of information suddenly exploded in Wang Dong's mind.

A massive flood of memories rushed into my mind.

"call!"

After a long while, Wang Dong let out a soft breath and thought to himself, "So I really did transmigrate to the prehistoric world, and I even became the first cannon fodder of the prehistoric world, the Eastern King Duke!"

Thinking of how the head of all male immortals was tricked and killed by Di Jun and Tai Yi, Wang Dong couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This is absolutely a hellish start!

[The Heavenly Dao has detected that you are an anomaly and intends to eliminate you. However, you have been protected by the will of your home planet's universe and have gained extraordinary comprehension.]

"Huh? Is this my cheat code?"

Wang Dong, no, it should be said that Dong Wanggong was overjoyed.

With this cheat code, he finally had the confidence to fight Di Jun Tai!

"...The path of the sage involves severing the three corpses and entering the quasi-sage realm..."

Endless sacred sounds resounded, and extraordinary phenomena appeared in heaven and earth, with golden lotuses springing from the ground.

[You listened to the Dao Ancestor preach, understood the method of severing the three corpses, and from this you comprehended the cultivation method of the immortal path.]

[Observe the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, contemplate your divine thoughts, and from this you will comprehend the cultivation method for the immortality of the primordial spirit.]

[You discover that the primordial fortune is beginning to gather and converge upon the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, comprehending the laws of fortune, and you create the art of faith.]

[By listening to the sage's teachings, you learn about the Way of the Five Elements and comprehend the laws of the Five Elements.]

【…】

……

The three thousand years of preaching have come to an end.

Hongjun Daoist suddenly changed the subject and said:

"Dongwanggong, you were formed from the first wisp of primordial blue yang energy, and should be the origin of all things. Now that the primordial world has been initially settled, I hereby appoint you as the head of all male immortals in the primordial world, to govern all male immortals under heaven."

Wow!

These words caused an uproar among the great gods of the primordial world.

This Dongwanggong really got incredibly lucky!

He was personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor as the head of the male immortals.

Doesn't this mean that from now on, all male immortals in the primordial world who become immortals will be subject to the control of the Eastern King Duke?!

What power this is!

The reactions of those with great supernatural powers varied.

Among them, the most obvious is Di Jun Taiyi.

The two of them were born emperors. Over the years, they had subdued many demons, both openly and secretly. They were just one step away from swearing an oath to the Heavenly Dao to establish a Heavenly Court and rule over all the races of the prehistoric world.

Now that Dao Ancestor Hongjun has personally bestowed the title of Eastern King Duke upon them, how could they be willing to accept it!

But even though they harbored resentment, they dared not offend Hongjun, who was the first sage.

"As expected, there was no escaping it! Is this what they call destiny?"

"Since it's a predetermined fate, even Hongjun wouldn't dare to defy it. So, if I propose a condition, he shouldn't refuse, right?"

The Eastern King Duke's mind raced.

Since we can't change the decree from Hongjun Daoist, let's talk about some benefits and maximize our gains!

"Why did Di Jun and Tai Yi dare to disregard the title of the leader of male immortals and kill Dong Wang Gong? It's because this leader of male immortals is all show and no merit in the Heavenly Dao. Killing him won't incur too much karma."

"Now that I'm here, I have to get a formal title from Hongjun!"

A glint flashed in the eyes of the Eastern King Duke, then he spoke:

"Master, since it is destined that I will be the head of the male immortals, may I ask you for the title of Heavenly Emperor? This would make it easier for me to command the other immortals and manage the male immortals of the primordial world in the future."

Upon hearing this, the group of powerful individuals were completely stunned.

What title was bestowed by the Heavenly Emperor?

You, Lord Dongwang, really dare to dream big!

"This Eastern King has quite the appetite!"

Emperor Jun and Taiyi were filled with rage.

This Eastern King is trying to cut off their path!

Even Hongjun was taken aback.

He had previously thought that Jieyin and Zhunti were the most shameless people in the prehistoric world, but he never expected that this Dongwanggong was even more shameless!

A title for the Heavenly Emperor? He really dares to dream of that!

If it weren't for the fact that this was the will of Heaven, something he couldn't change, he really wouldn't bother with the Eastern King Duke.

But now the situation is that the arrow is on the bowstring and must be released!

Hongjun slightly pinched his fingers, calculated for a moment, and then said:

"Lord Dongwang, I hereby bestow upon you the title of Emperor Shaoyang of the Eastern Purple Mansion!"

"Damn it!"

Di Jun and Tai Yi looked extremely grim. Now that the Eastern King Duke had the title of Emperor, he was in a position of great righteousness and had a legitimate claim to the throne.

This was definitely not good news for the two who wanted to establish a heavenly court and become the Heavenly Emperor.

"Thank you, Teacher!"

The Eastern King was overjoyed and quickly bowed in gratitude.

Whether he was the Heavenly Emperor or not was secondary; what he really wanted was a title from Hongjun.

Hongjun personally bestowed the title, which was tantamount to Heaven acknowledging his identity.

If Di Jun and Tai Yi want to kill him, they will have to bear the consequences of their karma.

The title of Donghua Dijun carries far more weight than that of the head of male immortals.

Of course, the Eastern King Duke's conditions were not limited to this one.

Hongjun made him the head of the male immortals, which was clearly a huge trap. He didn't mind taking a big bite out of Hongjun!

[Host detected as meeting the requirements. Join the Multiverse Chat Group?]

"A chat group? Is it the kind of chat group I'm thinking of?"

Dong Wanggong was taken aback.

He already possessed extraordinary comprehension, and with the title of Eastern Emperor, he held the moral high ground, making him unafraid of the deadly trap brought by Emperor Jun and Taiyi.

Unexpectedly, such a big surprise awaited him!

"join in!"

Dong Wanggong had an idea and chose to join without hesitation.

Welcome to the Donghua Zifu Shaoyang Emperor group chat!

[Given the Emperor's noble status, revered by Heaven and Earth, he has automatically become the group owner!]

"!!!"

The chat group, which had been bustling with activity, suddenly fell silent.

He automatically became the group admin the moment he joined—who is this awesome big shot?!

Emperor Donghua?

He dares to call himself an emperor; he's definitely not a simple person!

The chat group quickly erupted in chaos.

[Ye Hei: Holy crap! This newbie's got guts! Daring to call himself Emperor! Could he be a Great Emperor?]

[Zhang Zhiwei of Longhu Mountain: Donghua Zifu Shaoyang Emperor! Could he be the ancient deity I know?!]

[Sword Immortal Yan Chixia: No way? Could I really be lucky enough to be in the same group as that person? This is a blessing I've accumulated over ten lifetimes!]

[The First Emperor of Qin: "??? Wait, judging from your tone, it seems you know this newcomer? He automatically became the group owner as soon as he joined, and even calls himself Emperor?"]

[Zhang Zhiwei of Longhu Mountain: If the title is accurate, this is absolutely a master among masters! A legendary figure!]

[Sword Immortal Yan Chixia: Old Zhang is right. If it really is that founder of the Quanzhen School, then he's truly divine! The Eastern Purple Mansion Lesser Yang Emperor, also known as the Eastern King Duke, is the head of all male immortals appointed by Heaven and Earth. All male immortals must pay homage to him.]

[Qin Emperor Zulong: This is amazing!]

[Ye Hei: Hahaha, if there really was such a master in the group, we could be able to rely on him! Looking forward to it!]

All four of them were very excited.

They had been in the group for a while and had gotten to know each other to some extent, including each other's identities and abilities.

But in the end, they are all still within the realm of mortals.

With a true god suddenly appearing, how could anyone not be excited!
