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

Chapter 50 Heavenly Divine Power (Please continue reading)

Looking at the two people in front of her, Nuwa felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. It was truly a bit eerie.

When it was Donghua's turn to preach, he first explained his understanding of the supernatural power of "major and minor powers at will," and then he spoke about the Pure Yang Great Dao. He finished speaking very seriously about his understanding of the Dao.

After Donghua finished speaking, west Wangmu explained the Great Dao of Taiyin, and then Tongtian explained the Great Dao of Shangqing Taixu. At this time, Tongtian had not yet comprehended the Dao of Intercepting Heaven, but after listening, Donghua felt that Tongtian had already grasped a trace of the rudimentary form of Intercepting Heaven.

The innate saints of Donghua's generation are advancing at an unparalleled speed, gradually approaching the Hunyuan realm.

Ultimately, they will shine in the primordial world, just like Hongjun, Luohou, Zulong, and Yuanfeng during the Longhan era.

……

Several days have passed since the last discussion, during which the five of them have been practicing together.

Sometimes, when the mood strikes, they'll even have a friendly spar.

Donghua and Tongtian have spent the last few days discussing formations. They are particularly interested in the great formation at the Undying Volcano and often discuss it.

The two often sparred in swordsmanship, and Donghua always lost by a narrow margin. In order to save face, he would talk about many sword cultivation methods from novels from his previous life.

Some cultivation methods seem incredibly powerful and promising, while others are directly rejected as utter nonsense and mere window dressing.

Finally, the two discussed the techniques with each other, and sometimes even fought directly to verify the methods of sword cultivation.

Donghua's swordsmanship improved by leaps and bounds. Based on his insights in this life and some theories from his previous life, he eventually formed his own swordsmanship.

It is divided into three levels: seeing heaven and earth, seeing all living beings, and seeing oneself.

The three different levels of swordsmanship also represent the three manifestations of the Way.

Tongtian scoffed at Donghua's understanding of the sword path, believing it to be a grand path disguised as the sword path, not a pure sword path.

Under Donghua's ingenious ideas, Tongtian's swordsmanship also achieved a new breakthrough.

This has formed a sword style that is unstoppable, cutting through the sky, the earth, and people. Tongtian has already gained some understanding of the realms of cutting through people and the earth, but he still has no clue about the realm of cutting through the sky.

Donghua also looked down on Tongtian's sword path, believing that it was a deviation from the true path and would ultimately harm both himself and others.

The two disliked each other and fought from time to time, yet they also seemed to have a mutual respect for one another.

"Fellow Daoist Taiwei, I find you much more pleasing to the eye these past few days than when I listened to your teachings at Zixiao Palace."

Tongtian took a sip of Da Hong Pao tea and commented with lingering enjoyment.

Donghua was stirring the tea leaves with pure Yang divine fire nearby, and soon a pot of fragrant tea leaves was ready.

"Can't you even speak properly? If you can't speak properly, are you just selling your mouth?"

Nuwa and Taizhen, who were standing nearby, chuckled upon hearing this, as if they had seen this kind of scene many times before and did not care.

Instead, he was sipping fragrant tea, holding a Go stone condensed from his magic power in his hand, and playing Go.

Tongtian and Fuxi, standing nearby, were playing chess, but instead of the Chu River and Han Border, they were playing the Heaven and Earth Border.

Having nothing to do these past few days, Donghua recreated the two games from his previous life, which were immediately well-received, especially by Fuxi, who was amazed by Donghua's talent.

While playing chess, Fuxi suddenly exclaimed, "If only the Wu and Yao tribes could determine a winner like this game of chess!"

The group ignored it, fully aware of the imp and demon races' impending actions; a life-or-death battle was inevitable.

Especially the demon race, after suffering a great loss last time, will definitely seek revenge.

Fuxi, still unaware of his own predicament, asked again, "Tell me, which court, Heaven or Earth, will prevail?"

The group did not answer this question.

Donghua thought to himself that Fuxi was now wholeheartedly devoted to the Heavenly Court, and all his ambitions were also in the Heavenly Court. As the current Emperor Xi of the Heavenly Court, Fuxi could be said to be absolutely qualified.

"Then we need to see whether it's Xi Huang asking this question, or you, fellow Daoist, asking it?"

Fuxi: "What's the difference?"

Donghua smiled and said, "If it were Emperor Xi asking, then the Heavenly Court would naturally win. But if it were Fellow Daoist Fuxi asking, then there would be no winner."

Fuxi fell silent, his hand holding a chess piece for a long time without making a move, and finally sighed.

Tongtian shook his head helplessly: "You've ruined a perfectly good game of chess!"

"Is there really no victor? Or can the two races live in peace and jointly govern the world?"

"Fuxi, that's enough. If you can't speak properly, at least use your mouth. If you're not going to play chess, then step aside and let Tongtian and I have a game of chess."

As soon as Donghua finished speaking, he waved his right hand, and a chessboard was formed. He then began to play chess with Tongtianxia.

Queen Mother of the West: "Brother Taiwei, when I leave, please bring me some Da Hong Pao tea. I like to drink it."

"Yes, that's not a problem. I've prepared one for each of you. Take it with you when you leave."

Upon hearing this, Taizhen was not happy. She stopped paying attention to Donghua and silently began playing chess. She felt that everyone had it, so she was no longer special.

Nuwa smiled meaningfully, but said nothing.

The group began to enjoy tea and play chess.

"Fellow Daoists, Donghua wishes to compile a book called 'Heavenly Divine Powers,' corresponding to the thirty-sixth of the celestial numbers, which will include thirty-six great divine powers from the primordial era. I wonder if any of you would be willing to support it?"

Tongtian threw down the chess piece and said jokingly, "You, Donghua, are trying to use our supernatural powers to enhance your reputation? How can you be so shameless?"

Several people also pointed fingers at Donghua, showing their shamelessness.

"Oh dear, fellow Daoists, you have truly misunderstood. When compiling this book, I will definitely indicate the source of each supernatural power in each volume, so that it may serve as the fundamental supernatural power of our immortal path."

"After the compilation is completed, each person named in the scroll will be given a copy. Even if you fellow Daoists do not need it, you can pass it on to your disciples."

"My teacher appointed me as the head of the male immortals, yet I have made no contribution to the development of the immortal path, which is extremely shameful. That is why I am seeking help from fellow Daoists."

The group then nodded in approval.

Tongtian: "That's more like it."

Fuxi: "Fellow Daoist, your actions are of the highest virtue."

Nuwa: "It has made great contributions to the path of immortality."

Taizhen: "Brother's actions are worthy of a sage."

Donghua sighed inwardly, thinking that these guys were still too naive. Although he would share the book with them once it was successfully compiled.

But in the end, it was compiled by Wu Donghua, so naturally I will enjoy a share of fortune. The more people cultivate, the more fortune I will have, and it will accumulate.

Nuwa then provided assistance in manipulating creation, mending the sky and bathing the sun, and bringing the dead back to life; Tongtian provided assistance in reversing yin and yang and controlling the spirits; Fuxi provided assistance in predicting the future; and Taizhen provided assistance in the instant flowers bloomed, and so on.

Donghua felt completely numb from winning!

At this moment, Prince Changqin, Qianyu, Duobao, Qingniao, and Jinfeng walked up from the mountain peak.

These past few days, Donghua and the others have been discussing the Dao and cultivating, with these people serving them, but they have also gained immense benefits.

After exchanging greetings with everyone, Crown Prince Changqin said, "Your Majesty, I have come today to take my leave. My father has ordered me to return."

Donghua hummed in agreement: "Go, go. All things arise and cease due to causes and conditions. All phenomena arise from causes and conditions, and cease when those causes and conditions cease."

"Changqin, although you are a member of the Wu tribe, you have a compassionate, kind, and upright heart. Sometimes you should not blindly listen to your father's words. You can bring your own ideas to the Wu tribe and benefit the world and all living beings."

Changqin bowed deeply and said, "I will remember the Emperor's teachings."

He then bid farewell to Qianyu, Qingniao, and the others, and left Tiannan.

Fuxi: "He really doesn't seem like a member of the Wu tribe."

Donghua smiled and said, "He is a true sorcerer."

Fuxi was stunned for a moment, and remained silent for a long time.
