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

Chapter 5 Preaching

After his mind cleared, Donghua began his first cultivation journey in the primordial world.

The magical power within his body is as vast as the sea, flowing from the Purple Mansion throughout his body. During its circulation, it absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into his body and finally returns to the Purple Mansion.

The external Dao flows and transforms, with Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, thunder, earth, water, fire, wind, and other laws evolving around the Pure Yang Dao.

Donghua couldn't stop himself during his first cultivation session.

Although he inherited all the original body's strength, it can't really be called inheritance, since he was originally the Eastern King Duke. However, what was in control of everything at this moment was a "mortal heart".

So he knows how to do it, but he just can't do it; it's a classic case of having the brain but not the hands.

As the Great Dao flowed freely, it spread throughout the Purple Mansion Continent and began to spread to the Three Islands and Ten Continents, its terrifying aura pressing down upon them.

The aura was very powerful, but it had no harmful effect whatsoever.

At this moment, all living beings on the island turned their heads to look.

"What is Your Majesty doing?"

"What is the Emperor doing?"

Neither Donghua's subordinates nor the island's inhabitants could understand this move.

All living beings looked toward Zifu Continent.

The Thunder God of Yunmeng Marsh, the Lord of the Clouds, the God who dwells in the clouds.

The three gods of fortune, prosperity, and longevity, represented by Qingxiu.

Those who follow the Eastern King Duke in cultivation, represented by the Immortal Lord Taiyuan, a guest in the Purple Cloud Palace.

The native creatures of the Three Islands and Ten Continents, represented by the Barefoot Immortal, a guest of Zixiao Palace.

Some ancient tribes that fled here.

There are also the thirty-five Fate Masters and the seventy-two Divine Generals of the Purple Palace.

Shao Siming opened her cherry-like mouth in astonishment: "Is the Emperor preaching?"

His words were full of doubt and disbelief.

In the primordial wilderness.

Many great beings preach the Way, but very few spread it to all beings. In fact, apart from Hongjun, there are none.

Preaching is merely expressing one's own ideas and understanding of the Tao.

The transmission of knowledge usually takes place only between master and disciple, or between Daoist couples, in a one-on-one manner.

It's like laying out your own path directly in front of others for them to comprehend.

To put it bluntly, it means to openly reveal one's own principles.

The Grand Master of Fate slapped the Junior Master of Fate on the head: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and try to comprehend it."

After saying that, he didn't care about anyone else and flew straight up to the blue sea. He found a place and began to comprehend the Daoist laws released by Donghua.

Shao Siming also came to her senses and immediately joined in.

The Daoist aura emanates, and the closer one is to Donghua, the stronger the Daoist laws become.

At this moment, it seemed that everyone had realized what was happening and began to rush to one place, finding a spot to begin their meditation.

However, they did not enter the Purple Mansion and Azure Sea, because not just anyone can enter the Azure Sea.

Donghua had no idea that he had caused such a big commotion.

He was completely absorbed in his own cultivation.

When he returned from his time travel, he discovered that he could only unleash one-tenth of the power of the Eastern King.

There was no way around it; he had suddenly transformed from an ordinary mortal into a powerful being of heaven and earth. Although his magical power and the power of laws were all his own, he couldn't use them smoothly.

At this point, his cultivation was more like a complete retraining than true cultivation.

Their magical power and cultivation levels remain, but they are simply undergoing a complete retraining process to gain a deeper understanding of the differences between each realm.

Refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit to return to emptiness, refining emptiness to unite with the Dao.

In the current primordial world, there is nothing to cultivate in these realms; Donghua is simply trying to understand the differences between them.

Then came the Celestial Immortal realm, where Donghua carefully comprehended the Celestial Immortal Dao Fruit.

Then came the Mysterious Immortal, the Spiritual Immortal, the True Immortal, and finally, the Golden Immortal realm.

He spent the longest time comprehending this state of mind.

Because the Golden Immortal realm is extremely important.

Even the Great Golden Immortal of Primordial Chaos, whose name contains the character "gold," demonstrates the importance of this realm.

Only when one cultivates to the level of a Golden Immortal can one be said to have truly attained enlightenment.

Gold is immortal and indestructible.

The three flowers of Heaven, Earth, and Man begin to appear, and the three flowers gather at the top of the head.

The five energies in the chest fluctuate, then the five energies are subdued, and then the five energies return to their origin.

Later, the Dao Fruit evolved into the Taiyi Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, which then merged with the Pure Yang Great Dao to form an indestructible true spirit.

Then comes the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Donghua steps into the river of time, searching for the past and the present.

He found all of the original Dongwanggong's past, from his birth and transformation into human form, to his cultivation of the Great Dao Laws and the Divine Path.

When they were weak, they witnessed the ferocity and cruelty of the primordial beasts, but were powerless to change it. Later, some newly born innate deities launched a rebellion, including Hongjun, Luohou, Yin Yang, the Five Elements, Dian Dao, Kunwu, and others.

The First Dragon, the Primordial Phoenix, and the First Qilin led all the races of the prehistoric world in a final counterattack against the ferocious beasts.

He did not participate in the great calamity of ferocious beasts because he was in the East Sea, the lair of the dragons, where no ferocious beasts had yet come.

After the Dragon-Han Calamity, the three races slaughtered each other in their quest for enlightenment. When the Dragon Clan attacked the Three Immortal Islands, he led his people to repel wave after wave of attacks.

At that time, he had just entered the realm of Great Luo Golden Immortal, no, he should be said to have just entered the realm of God Emperor, because he had not yet cultivated immortality.

With the help of the protective formation of the three islands and ten continents, he finally managed to hold on.

Later, the three races retreated into seclusion. The Ancestral Dragon eternally guarded the four seas, the Primordial Phoenix eternally guarded the Undying Volcano in the South, and the First Qilin eternally guarded the center of the continent.

These people, the Way exists, but the people are gone.

In the struggle between the Dao and the Demon, the Demon Ancestor unified the West, founded the Demonic Cult, and with overwhelming power, swept across all living beings.

They wish to replace the Way of Heaven with the Way of Demons, and establish the world of the Demonic Way.

This time, however, these newly born innate deities became the main force.

The Three Pure Ones, Di Jun, Tai Yi, Fu Xi, Nuwa, Wang Shu, the Twelve Demon Gods, Zhen Yuan Zi, Hong Yun, Styx, Jie Yin, Zhun Ti, Le Ze, Zi Wei, and so on.

Some formed forces, while others acted alone, beginning to resist the Demon Ancestor's attack.

He also established the Purple Mansion faction.

Hongjun and the others faced off against Luo Hou.

They purged the Demon Ancestor's subordinates, such as the Heavenly Demons.

This was the first time I witnessed the power of the demon, its endless transformations and its all-pervasive nature.

They initially suffered repeated defeats.

Later, Hongjun began to teach the Dao of Immortality and explain how to deal with the demonic path.

This time, they witnessed the wonder and vastness of the Immortal Path once again, and also came into contact with it for the first time.

The appearance of the Immortal Path left a deep mark on Dongwanggong, and from that moment on, he wanted to switch to cultivating the Immortal Path.

This time, all living beings in the primordial world unleashed powerful abilities.

The Demon Ancestor was defeated and fled, but he also destroyed the final battleground, the Western Continent.

To be precise, it wasn't them who damaged it, but Hongjun and the Demon Ancestor.

They won, but many people died.

This war was led by Luo Hou Hongjun and is also known as the war between immortals and demons.

After the decisive battle, Hongjun immediately attained the Dao of Hunyuan, becoming a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal, and then departed.

He cultivated his divine path to the peak of the God Emperor realm, but still could not become an Ancestral Realm cultivator.

Because of the path to immortality, he clearly felt for the first time that the path to immortality was his true home.

Of course, this is also because the path of gods is becoming increasingly difficult to cultivate, as the Great Dao is almost in a state of decline, and the Heavenly Dao has truly begun to operate.

In the primordial chaos, there was a Dao, and the gods were one with the Dao. With the Great Dao receding, the path of the gods is destined to be difficult to cultivate.

Afterwards, Hongjun attained the position of Heavenly Sage, the Great Dao truly retreated, and the Heavenly Dao officially took the stage.

At that time, heaven and earth celebrated for Hongjun, purple aura filled the primordial world, and the sound of the Dao resounded endlessly.

For the first time, all living beings in the primordial world witnessed the power of the Primordial Golden Immortals and Sages, and came to know the Dao of Immortality.

After Hongjun attained sainthood, he opened the gates of Zixiao Palace to all beings who were destined to hear his teachings.

In the Purple Cloud Palace, all beings listened to Hongjun explain the Great Dao, the Immortal Path, and the methods of cultivating immortality.

Without hesitation, Dongwanggong switched to cultivating immortality and created his own Purple Mansion Immortal Path based on Hongjun's Immortal Path.

Later, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Zhen Yuanzi, Di Jun, and others all created their own unique methods of immortality.

The primordial world has ushered in an era belonging to the immortal path.
