Primordial Era: I really don't want to be the Heavenly Emperor!

Chapter 327 Chen Du, the Alliance of Saints!

Shouyang Mountain, located in the eastern part of the prehistoric world and close to the central Buzhou land, was the territory under the jurisdiction of the Qilin clan at the beginning of the creation of the world. After the war between the three clans, it became the training ground of Donghua. Now, apart from the main vein of Shouyang Mountain, it has become the ancestral land of the human race.

Humanity, relying on Shouyang Mountain, has established a vast power. This place is no longer just the land of Shouyang Mountain, but has formed a world in itself.

Humanity's conquest of the East began at Shouyang Mountain, and now the eastern lands are almost entirely under human control; to be precise, no other race can rival humanity.

Although there are myriad races in the primordial world, there are still few races with Quasi-Saints. While the human race does not have Quasi-Saints, it has many Great Luo Immortals.

Of the three thousand innate humans created by Nuwa, almost all of those who survived and remained among the human race were Great Luo Taiyi. If you count carefully, there are nearly twenty Great Luo Taiyi. This is the reason why the human race was able to defeat the Dog-Sealing Clan and dared to take the initiative.

It should be noted that when Donghua was reborn, the number of people in the entire Zifu Daluo was less than that of the human race now, which shows that the human race is indeed very strong now.

Now, the human race has unified the East, and the entire eastern land is filled with human tribes of all sizes.

Inside the main hall of the ancestral land of the human race, almost all the high-ranking members of the human race were gathered. Fuxi sat on the imperial throne, looking down at everyone.

"Gentlemen, now that the Eastern Territory is unified and our human race's influence is spread throughout the East, there is a very serious problem that we must consider."

Fuxi looked around and saw that everyone was waiting for him to say something. Then, without further observation, he spoke directly:

"Shouyang Mountain is the Daoist temple of the Heavenly Emperor, but it is also the ancestral land of our human race. However, it can only be our ancestral land, not the political center of our human race, that is, the place where our capital is located."

Upon hearing Fuxi's words, everyone began to discuss them, but almost everyone agreed with Fuxi's words, because no matter how good Shouyang Mountain was, it was still someone else's place of practice.

Although Donghua didn't mind, they still felt uncomfortable staying there. So this was indeed a problem that the human race was currently facing: finding a suitable place to establish a political center for the human race.

The Earth Emperor rose and said, "Your Majesty's words are completely agreed upon by me. Our Earth Emperor tribe is located in the far east, occupying Tianya City. Your Majesty may establish your capital in Tianya City."

Before Fuxi could say anything, Fengling stood up and said, "That's not appropriate. Tianya City is nice, but its geographical location is too remote. Our human tribes are scattered all over the east, so it's not suitable as a capital."

"In my opinion, it would be better to rebuild a city, occupy the central east, refine the myriad worlds within it, set up the Eight Directions Grand Array outside it, and make it the imperial capital of our human race."

Feng Ling, also known as You Wa Shi, is the reincarnation of Nuwa. She was first born into the Zhi Sheng clan, later learned her skills in the Ren Huang clan, and is now the leader of the Ren Huang clan.

Following Feng Ling's words, everyone started discussing it again and found it to be very reasonable.

"Your Majesty, I support Chief Fengling's opinion. Our human capital should be established by our human race, thus laying the foundation for our human race."

"Your Majesty, I agree..."

"Your Majesty, I agree..."

"..."

In an instant, everyone's voices were united: to establish a new capital, a brand new capital, a capital that belonged exclusively to the human race.

Fuxi clapped his hands and said, "Very well, then this matter is settled. Let us establish a capital city that belongs exclusively to our human race, a brand new capital!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fuxi brought out the Hetu and Luoshu, two top-tier innate spiritual treasures that were not only treasures of the starry sky, but also treasures of the earth.

As spiritual energy flowed into his abdomen, a scene of the primordial East appeared on the Hetu Luoshu. After observing for a long time, Fuxi formed a hand seal, and a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) emerged, manifesting the power of the Great Dao and bringing the profound mysteries of the Heavenly Dao to mind.

Fuxi suddenly opened his eyes, pointed to a spot on the Hetu and Luoshu maps, and asked, "What is this place called?"

The Earth Emperor looked at the place on the map, thought for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, this place is called Wanqiu. It was the site of the Kuafu tribe of the Wu clan. Later, because two great sages emerged from this place, named Taihao and Shaohao, it was also called Taihao Ruins and Shaohao Ruins."

"Taihao? Shaohao?" Fuxi felt that these two names were familiar, but he couldn't remember why.

It is quite obvious from Fuxi's situation that he is about to attain enlightenment, that is, he is about to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm and awaken his memories of his past life.

"This place is excellent. Our human race will establish its capital here, named: Chendu!"

"The establishment of the capital shall be overseen by the Dihuang clan, with the assistance of the Suiren, Youchao, and Zhisheng clans, to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"Your Majesty, we obey!"

With the establishment of the capital settled, Fuxi looked at everyone again, finally fixing his gaze on Feng Ling. After exchanging a brief glance, Feng Ling lowered her head.

Fuxi smiled upon seeing this, stepped down from his throne, came to Feng Ling's side, took her hand, and led her back to the throne. Facing the crowd, he said:

"Everyone, Feng Ling and I are deeply in love. Today, with your witness, we are to become Daoist partners. The day Chendu is completed will be the day Feng Ling and I get married."

Hearing this, everyone was very happy. After all, the union of Fuxi and Fengling represented the union of the two strongest tribes of the human race. In addition, the loyalty of the Earth Emperor to Fuxi resolved the problem that had plagued the Heavenly Emperor for countless years, and the internal conflict of the human race was instantly resolved.

"Your Majesty, we offer our heartfelt congratulations, and we offer our congratulations to Chief Fengling!"

Fuxi, holding Fengling's hand, laughed heartily. Finally, he looked at everyone and said, "Fengling and I are cultivators, and it would be fine for us to become Daoist partners. However, I have observed that marriage and wedding ceremonies among the human race are chaotic, with incestuous marriages and disordered etiquette."

"Therefore, marriage came into being. From then on, the human race established a complete marriage and wedding system, starting with my wedding to Fengling."

"From this day forward, marriage between close relatives of the human race is prohibited, and marriage between those within five degrees of kinship is also prohibited..."

"The marriage system is based on the Three Letters and Six Rites. The Three Letters are: the Betrothal Letter, the Gift Letter, and the Wedding Ceremony Letter. The Six Rites are: 1. Betrothal Ceremony, 2. Asking the Name, 3. Presenting Auspicious Gifts, 4. Presenting Betrothal Gifts, 5. Setting the Wedding Date, and 6. The Wedding Ceremony itself is the marriage ceremony!"

"The groom's family sends gifts to the bride's family to express their intention to propose marriage."

"..."

With Fuxi's speech, the marriage system of the human race was officially established, which is the marriage system of the three paths of heaven, earth and man. It was only waiting for Fuxi and Nuwa to become Daoist partners and complete this series of procedures.

Meanwhile, Donghua and Nuwa were enjoying tea and discussing philosophy in the White Lotus Cave of Shouyang Mountain.

"Congratulations, Senior Sister! It seems your cultivation in your benevolent corpse form is about to make great progress!"

Nuwa was the earliest goddess to be in charge of the creation of heaven and earth and marriage, that is, the operator of heavenly marriage, and her good corpse was the one who was killed by Dijun and Xihe after they completed the heavenly marriage.

Nuwa remained calm upon hearing Donghua's words, simply sipping a cup of spiritual tea before saying, "In the past, I might have been pleased, but now it's nothing to speak of."

Donghua thought about it and agreed. For Nuwa, a wealthy woman, the merit of human marriage was indeed just so-so.

"Junior brother, is what you just said about Rahu's imminent return true or false?" Nuwa asked Donghua. She couldn't help but care about this matter. Even for them now, the name Rahu was a huge mountain weighing on their hearts.

Don't be fooled by their current status as Primordial Saints with their rapidly advancing cultivation. Luo Hou is no pushover either. In order to break through his cultivation barrier, he willingly transformed into the Heaven of the Demon Realm, merging into the Primordial Heavenly Dao to comprehend the Great Dao.

Even Nuwa wouldn't dare to do such a thing; she has always been a bold person. But Rahu's actions were too extreme and frightening.

When Rahu transformed into the heavens, their cultivation levels were still low, so it was impossible to see what it represented. Now, from the perspective of a sage, Rahu at that time had definitely already paved the way, at least reaching the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm.

Now that Huatian has returned, he will surely make further progress, making him their strongest opponent.

"pretty close!"

Nuwa nodded solemnly, then said, "We still need to discuss this matter further. Rahu is no simple man. Since we're going to fight, we should eliminate this threat once and for all, otherwise things could get complicated."

Donghua said, "That's what I think too. This is Luo Hou's last chance, but it's also our last chance. If we let this guy escape again, it won't be easy to kill him again."

"This time, we must either completely eliminate Rahu or subdue him. We absolutely cannot let this guy continue to wreak havoc in the prehistoric world."

Nuwa asked in surprise, "Subdue them?"

"Junior brother, you really dare to dream big, actually wanting to subdue the Demon Ancestor!"

Donghua laughed and said, "There's no way around it. After being the Heavenly Emperor for so long, everyone wants to try to subdue him."

Upon hearing this, Nuwa's eyes flickered slightly, her spiritual gaze fixed intently on Donghua, though it was unclear what she was thinking.

After a long silence, Nuwa finally spoke, asking, "Junior brother, do you also wish to subdue us Primordial Saints, to serve the Heavenly Court, and to make the Saints submit to the Heavenly Emperor?"

Faced with Nuwa's question, Donghua did not evade it. Instead, he leisurely sipped a cup of spiritual tea and then said unhurriedly:

"This is not impossible!"

"Junior brother, you really have a lot of guts and ambition. Aren't you afraid of making a scene?"

"There's nothing I can do. After being the Heavenly Emperor for so long, I've become bolder and more ambitious. But I have a good appetite and I think I can handle it all."

After some probing, the two stared intently at each other, but said nothing more.

Now that things have come to this point, Donghua no longer wants to hide his ambition, because he has the confidence and ability to do so.

He is no longer the Eastern King Duke who needed to be careful at every turn, but the Heavenly Emperor, the number one person in the primordial world, and a being of the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos!

With his current strength, even the Three Pure Ones and the Two Sages of the West combined would not be his match.

However, there is a prerequisite: the seven people—Sanqing, Jieyin, Zhunti, Nuwa, and Houtu—cannot all be combined; otherwise, he will undoubtedly lose.

The combination of the Three Pure Ones and the other six saints represents the will of Heaven. Adding Houtu, another saint, represents the will of Heaven and Earth. In other words, the combination of these seven is no longer a contest of strength, but a challenge for Donghua to confront the Primordial Heavenly Dao.

That means defying the heavens!

Even if Donghua were at the fourth level of the Heavenly Realm, he wouldn't be able to defeat the current Primordial Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, he is destined to lose!

This is why he has maintained his relationship with Nuwa and Houtu, and why he has been trying to win over Tongtian and the two Western Saints.

Because sometimes in the primordial world, strength is no longer the only factor; it's about who can seize the will of Heaven and the general trend of the primordial world.

To put it simply, it's about who can acquire more Heavenly Dao power!

Donghua wins, and the Heavenly Emperor's position is won!

Donghua is defeated, but the Sage's position is won!

……

East China Sea!

Donghua's corpse arrived at Jin'ao Island with the Three Immortals, while Tongtian was giving a sermon to several of his personal disciples in Biyou Palace.

Suddenly, Tongtian stopped, looked down, and said, "Duobao, go outside the palace to greet your Uncle Donghua!"

"Your disciple obeys!"

Upon hearing Tongtian's words, a woman in a golden Taoist robe in the hall was delighted; she was none other than Tongtian's second disciple, Jin Ling.

"It feels like it's been ages since I last saw him!"

Just as Duobao arrived outside the palace, Donghua and the Three Immortals arrived.

"Greetings, Uncle-Master Donghua!"

"No need for formalities, let's go!"

As soon as Donghua entered the hall, all eyes were on him.

"How could it be an avatar?" Jin Ling's joy turned to disappointment when she saw that the newcomer was merely an avatar of Donghua.

"Greetings, Sage Tongtian!" Donghua bowed respectfully. He was merely an incarnation, so it was fine in front of others, but he still had to pay his respects in front of a sage.

"Fellow Daoist Chongyang, please have a seat!"

After gesturing, Tongtian asked again, "May I ask what brings you here, friend?"

Donghua glanced at the people in the hall. The five direct disciples of the Jie Sect and the seven attendants were the only ones present. It seemed that Tongtian was letting his disciples slack off.

"Sage Tongtian, I, in the name of the Supreme Being, hereby cordially invite you to participate in the Alliance of Sages!"

Tongtian asked in confusion, "A gathering of saints? That's interesting. What are you thinking?"

Donghua then told him everything about Rahu!

"So you want to hold a meeting of all the saints to discuss how to deal with Rahu?"

Donghua nodded and said, "This alliance is not only about negotiating how to deal with Rahu, but also about completely resolving the calamity of the Demon Realm, the conflict between humanity and the world, and preparing for the upcoming world war!"

Tongtian thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I agree to this. The question is, where will the alliance meeting be held?"

Donghua thought for a moment and said, "What about Buzhou? This alliance is not only an alliance of the Eight Sages, but also a competition for our disciples."

"The Heavenly Court, the Human Sect, the Chan Sect, the Jie Sect, the Buddhism Sect, and the Nuwa Palace are all participating in a competition of second-generation disciples of the Xuanmen (Taoist) sect. What do you think?"

"Excellent!" Tongtian agreed without the slightest hesitation.

In fact, he did want to hold such a competition, because he really wanted to test the level of the disciples of the Chan and Jie sects.

His strength was comparable to that of Yuanshi, and unless they fought to the death, they would never be able to determine a winner. However, he really wanted to defeat Yuanshi once.

Therefore, it seems that the only way to determine the winner is in the matter of teaching disciples.

"In this world, Junior Brother Donghua understands me the most!"

Thinking this, Tongtian looked at his disciples below and said, "You all need to cultivate diligently during this time, and you must bring honor to your master during the competition!"

"Your disciple obeys!"
