Primordial Era: If I remain in Longevity Mountain, I will steadily attain sainthood.

Chapter 33 Zhen Yuanzi's suggestion was a wake-up call.

Although the two fledglings were still small, they had already developed intelligence, but had not yet taken human form. Hongyun coaxed them and accepted them as disciples, and then named them.

Kong Xuan should still be called Kong Xuan, but Da Peng Hongyun felt that the name should be changed, so it was changed to Xuan Peng.

Although both of them possess the inheritance left by Yuan Feng, Hong Yun, as their teacher, naturally had to pass on her own skills to them.

Therefore, he also organized some of his own Taoist methods and passed them on to the two of them. The key point was to guide them to cultivate their innate essence and turn it into supernatural powers.

As for Kong Xuan's Five Elements Origin, he naturally needs to refine it into Five-Colored Divine Light. As for Xuan Peng's Yin-Yang Origin, Hong Yun has no experience with it.

However, a preliminary analysis suggests that it shouldn't be a problem.

After Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi jointly deduced the power, they also emitted five-colored divine light and successfully deduced a divine power of Yin-Yang Divine Light, which they then taught to Xuanpeng.

Afterwards, the two took the two back to Longevity Hill.

Upon returning to Longevity Mountain, the monkey first summoned Xuanfeng, who was overjoyed to see that he had gained two more junior brothers.

Hongyun simply handed Kong Xuan and Xuanpeng over to him to take care of.

In the backyard of Wuzhuang Temple, Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi were exchanging ideas and discussing what they had learned from listening to the teachings at Zixiao Palace.

Hongyun also took the opportunity to propose a perfect version of the method to sever the three corpses, saying, "According to Master's method, one uses a spiritual treasure to sever the three corpses. However, I feel that it is not necessary to do so. Rather than seeking the Dao through external things, why not seek the Dao within?"

Hongyun's eloquent speech left Zhen Yuanzi both surprised, delighted, and bewildered. Was his younger brother really that audacious?

They even want to change the teachings passed down by the sage teacher?

However, the more Zhen Yuanzi listened, the more shocked he became, because according to Hongyun's words, the Three Corpses Severing Technique could really be modified in this way.

After listening, Zhen Yuanzi remained silent for a long time.

"How is it?" Hongyun asked, her mouth dry. She picked up a ginseng fruit, took a bite, and moistened her throat.

Zhen Yuanzi then came to his senses and looked at Hongyun. He no longer thought his younger brother was a carefree and irresponsible person; he was clearly a model of high moral character.

Silently giving Hongyun a thumbs up, Zhen Yuanzi said, "I think you can talk to Master Hongjun about this next time you give a sermon. He will definitely praise you."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Hongyun was taken aback and asked, "You really want to tell me?"

Zhen Yuanzi asked疑惑地问道, "Aren't you going to tell me?"

"Let me think about it."

Hongyun had never really thought about this question: why would he tell Hongjun the perfect version of the method to sever the three corpses?

Hongyun had no doubt that this would cause a great sensation and have a profound impact on the entire prehistoric world.

Can it change the overall trend?

Hongyun thought about it and felt that it was still a bit difficult, because even if he changed the original method of severing the three corpses so that everyone could sever the three corpses without relying on innate spiritual treasures.

But the difficulty remains unchanged. In fact, it's even more difficult. Using the three flowers of essence, energy, and spirit to sever the corpse through obsession is even more difficult than using an innate spiritual treasure to do so.

It also requires higher qualifications and comprehension.

Therefore, even if Hongyun were to pass on this perfect version of the Three Corpses Severing Technique, it wouldn't make much of a difference.

Proving one's faith remains difficult.

However, there was still a glimmer of hope.

"There's nothing wrong with revealing this method."

Hongyun said to Zhen Yuanzi, "But I can't just say it alone, shall we say it together?"

Zhen Yuanzi asked, "Why?"

"I'm afraid that if I show off like this, I'll be targeted."

Hongyun said, "We brothers share joys and sorrows. Besides, isn't this a way for you to gain favor with the teacher? How about it?"

Zhen Yuanzi felt a warmth in his heart. He had naturally misunderstood Hongyun's meaning, reversing the order of importance and thinking that Hongyun was trying to share the credit with him.

Moved, Zhen Yuanzi said, "Then I'll ask the teacher together with you."

Hongyun nodded, and the two continued their exchange and discussion. Another thousand years passed, and the two finally sorted out the gains from their discussion at Zixiao Palace, absorbing them one by one.

This second sermon at Zixiao Palace was about the Primordial Chaos Dao, which was many times more profound than the Great Luo Dao of the previous one.

Therefore, the time spent on this exchange and discussion was quite long.

However, it was worth it. After the conversation, the two brothers looked at each other and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Hongyun stood up first and said, "Let's go, let's go into seclusion. I've been stuck at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Perfection stage for a long time, it's time to break through."

Zhen Yuanzi also laughed and said, "Go ahead, but my dear brother, although you have many ideas and your mind is more agile than mine, I still think I should remind you."

As Zhen Yuanzi finished speaking, his tone became somewhat serious.

This made Hongyun stop in her tracks and ask, "Brother, what advice do you have for me?"

"Um."

Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said, "Hongyun, your aptitude and talent are both strong, so you will be very good at whatever you learn. But a person's energy is ultimately limited, and you are distracted too much."

"You said you would use the Great Dao to sever the corpse. Although, according to you, the chances of success are high, it is also possible that it will not succeed. Not to mention that you also need to cooperate with the world's method of proving the Dao and advance together, which makes it even more difficult."

Upon hearing this, Hongyun frowned and said, "Brother, please continue."

"I think we mainly have two paths to enlightenment right now. The first is to sever the three corpses, which is the most likely to succeed, so we should focus our energy on this. The second is to prove the Dao of the world we created. After all, there are still many uncertainties on this path. We can actually use it as a supplement to our cultivation, focusing on severing the three corpses. If we don't succeed in severing the three corpses, wouldn't it be better to then pursue this path?" Zhen Yuanzi said.

After listening, Hongyun pondered for a long time and then solemnly said to Zhen Yuanzi, "What you said, brother, has truly enlightened me."

"Indeed, I was overthinking things, and I was being a bit too greedy."

Hongyun thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I still want to try the Great Dao to sever the corpse. I will use the Five Elements to sever the good corpse, the Four Symbols to sever the evil corpse, and Yin and Yang to sever the self. If it fails, we will take another step back. As for proving the Dao in the world, we can let it take its natural course. If we fail to sever the three corpses, then we will go all out and take this path."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi burst into laughter and exclaimed, "Excellent!"

Hongyun nodded, said nothing more, and turned to go to her palace. Zhen Yuanzi also returned to his palace to go into seclusion.

They used different palaces for seclusion and cultivation. Zhen Yuanzi's palace was called Mingde Palace, while Hongyun's was called Mingdao Palace.

In Mingdao Palace, Hongyun sat down on the cloud bed and thought about Zhen Yuanzi's words again. She had to admit that Zhen Yuanzi was right.

I have always been too greedy.

Subconsciously, he felt that he was a time traveler, which made him extraordinary and omnipotent, but in reality, there were still many things he couldn't do.

Proving the truth is of utmost importance; it should not be taken lightly.

There are now two paths to enlightenment, so one must walk both paths simultaneously. But what if there are three? Three paths at the same time? Four paths?

Four routes advancing simultaneously? ...

Hongyun felt a cold sweat break out at the thought. What if everyone else had already attained enlightenment, while she remained stuck, unable to achieve it?

He can only rely on his strong foundation to compete with Donghuang Taiyi for the title of the number one below the sage.

That's just ants fighting.

Without attaining enlightenment and becoming a saint, one is ultimately just an ant in this primordial world, with one's fate controlled by others. What kind of feeling would that be?

"Luckily, I found a good elder brother who pulled me back from the brink in time. Is it still not too late?" Hongyun smiled.

He certainly wouldn't pay lip service to what he said to Zhen Yuanzi; he truly intended to do what he had just told him.

From now on, he will focus on severing the three corpses to attain enlightenment, while attaining enlightenment through the world will be secondary. Of course, there is another thing he did not tell Zhen Yuanzi.

That is to attain enlightenment through merit. Hongyun didn't really intend to attain enlightenment through merit, but he could still take some merit that he could and was entitled to.

After all, it's good to accumulate good deeds; this is a valuable thing.
