Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

Chapter 371 (Please purchase after 2 AM)

Hongyun also bestowed upon Yuan Hong the Black Jade Plum Blossom and the Enlightenment Tea as a gift, and then took Yuan Hong into the Chaos Pearl, allowing him to cultivate together with Liu Er.

"Why are you so busy today?" Zhen Yuanzi glanced at the direction outside the temple with dissatisfaction, clearly unwilling to get involved with the newcomer.

Styx has returned, holding the dying six-winged cicada in his hand.

Seeing that the six-winged cicada was not behaving properly, Hongyun asked, "Has something happened?"

Styx explained, "Nothing happened, we just had a fight and that's how we captured him."

Hongyun nodded thoughtfully and used magic to wake the six-winged golden cicada.

"Could Zhenyuan bestow upon him a golden pill to help him break through smoothly?" Hongyun didn't wait for the Six-Winged Golden Cicada to regain its senses. After all, it was just a golden pill, and outsiders were flocking to it, leaving dust on the cabinets of Wuzhuang Temple.

Zhen Yuanzi nodded slightly, took out a golden pill from his sleeve, and flicked it onto the six-winged golden cicada.

The moment it came into contact with the six-winged golden cicada, the golden core melted and entered the six-winged golden cicada's body.

The next moment, thunder roared down from the sky.

The six-winged golden cicada flew out of the hall, letting the lightning wash over its body.

He had the opportunity to break through only through diligent cultivation; these lightning powers could not harm his essence at all.

After the lightning subsided, the minor wounds on the six-winged cicada's body quickly healed. The enormous cicada's body transformed.

He transformed into a young man dressed in a moon-white robe.

The boy was seventeen or eighteen years old, with rosy lips and white teeth, resembling a handsome young gentleman in a corrupt world. No one could connect him with the ferocious six-winged golden cicada from before.

Even Hongyun was surprised to see that such a fierce and malevolent demonic insect had chosen to use the power of lightning to cleanse itself of its fierceness and malevolence during its tribulation.

However, although his appearance had changed, his essence remained largely the same. He stared at the lingering calamity clouds in the sky, his mouth agape.

Immediately, he saw the rolling lightning spiritual energy flow like a long river and be sucked into his mouth.

Instantly, the spiritual energy within his body surged.

"Uh." After patting its belly, the six-winged cicada let out a burp, looking quite satisfied.

"Greetings to the two sages!" The six-winged golden cicada knelt before Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi, his arrogance completely gone.

Hongyun said with satisfaction, "Not bad. It is truly remarkable that you were able to successfully transcend the tribulation and take human form."

Six-Winged Golden Cicada: "Thank you for your help, Sage. I was able to successfully overcome this tribulation. Furthermore, thanks to the spiritual energy of the Wuzhuang Temple, I was able to cleanse myself of my fierce aura and sever my karmic burdens with heavenly lightning."

Do you have a name?

Hongyun once again considered taking on apprentices. Since he had already taken on two, he wouldn't mind taking on one more. He wanted to create a ripple effect, making them all involved.

The six-winged golden cicada remained silent for a moment: "I am a six-winged golden cicada in human form, so I shall be called Golden Cicada Child! Human names are hard to come up with and hard to remember."

Hongyun: "I'm interested in taking you as my disciple. Are you willing?"

The Six-Winged Golden Cicada hesitated for a moment. The Great Tribulation was currently underway, and all the disciples of the sect faced immense danger. He needed to think things through completely before making a decision, unsure whether joining the Wuzhuang Temple would bring more advantages or disadvantages.

If he doesn't take a sage as his master, his cultivation as a Great Luo Golden Immortal will have reached its limit. A Quasi-Saint is not something a rogue cultivator can reach.

However, if one takes a sage as a teacher, one's behavior will be restricted in many ways, and one will have to obey other people's orders, losing a lot of freedom.

And that old scoundrel from the Styx River, a dignified Quasi-Saint, actually dared to launch a sneak attack while he was breaking through. If he becomes his disciple, he'll never have a chance for revenge.

But if I don't become his apprentice, I'll never be able to beat this old cunning bastard.

This is really worrying!

Jin Chanzi was torn between the two options and frowned, sighing.

"If the Sage accepts me as his disciple, will he avenge me for the serious injury I suffered at the hands of the Styx River?"

Jin Chanzi was quite clever; since he couldn't decide for himself, he simply threw it away and let others decide.

Before Hongyun could speak, Zhen Yuanzi said, "Now that you have broken through, if you want revenge, feel free to do it yourself. As long as you can withstand a hundred moves from Styx, I can bestow upon you a golden core and spiritual fruits. You won't need to formally become his disciple; there will be no need for a master-disciple relationship."

This is naturally a great thing, as it allows one to obtain the means to break through to Quasi-Saint status for free and also stay away from the Great Tribulation.

"Then let's put on a show!"

As Jin Chanzi was speaking, his mouth opened wide in the next moment.

Ten black holes suddenly appeared above the Styx River.

Then, terrifying suction forces emanated from these ten enormous black holes.

The Styx River sensed the terrifying air currents emanating from these ten black holes; volcanoes erupted, seas boiled, and the earth cracked. All the power of the world seemed to be being sucked away by the black holes.

Styx stood still, motionless.

Although the ten black holes kept revolving around him, they couldn't even budge the hem of his clothes.

Although the Great Luo Golden Immortals are powerful, they are nothing more than ants in front of Styx, a primordial deity who has experienced the entire primordial era.

Styx glanced at Jin Chanzi with disdain: "What other tricks do you have up your sleeve? Go ahead and use them."

Seeing that Styx remained so calm and composed under his attacks, Jin Chanzi panicked. This was only a Quasi-Saint, not a Heavenly Saint, yet he couldn't even budge the hem of a Quasi-Saint's robe.

How is that possible?

He, Jin Chanzi, is definitely not that incompetent.

"Devouring heaven and earth!" Jin Chanzi, enraged by Styx's words, immediately became furious.

Then, I heard him shout loudly.

Then, his body exploded and transformed into a giant six-winged golden cicada.

He opened his mouth wide and took a deep breath into the Styx.

Immediately, Styx felt a surging, devouring force sweeping over it.

The suction force was so strong that the entire space began to shake, as if it were about to collapse under the force of its devouring power at any moment.

The six-winged golden cicada can not only devour souls, but also all things in the world.

It can be said that as long as he is given enough, he can naturally enter the Quasi-Saint realm by relying on his Devouring Divine Power.

However, all the good things on the primordial land already have owners. It will be quite difficult for Jin Chanzi to improve his cultivation simply by devouring mountains and rivers.

After all, spiritual energy these days tends to concentrate in the sacred sites of sages, and the spiritual energy in other places is thin, so even if he absorbs it, it won't have much effect.

This is why, after all these years, he has still not reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

Upon arriving at Wuzhuang Temple, with the help of the Golden Elixir, he broke through the shackles of cultivation and entered the Great Luo Realm.

If Hongyun wanted to continue nurturing him, she only needed to give him a dozen or so Jade Plum Blossoms, dozens of Golden Pills, or a few spiritual treasures. Then, his cultivation would easily reach the mid-stage or late-stage of the Great Luo realm.

"How dare the light of a firefly compete with the brilliance of the moon?" Styx smiled contemptuously, flicked his long sleeves, and all of Jin Chanzi's supernatural powers disappeared. He was also forced to kneel down by the pressure.
