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

Chapter 52 Hongjun Entrusts His Orphan?

The palace gates were tightly closed, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun had descended upon the cloud bed on the Dao platform at some unknown time.

Upon seeing Hongjun descend, everyone bowed in unison:

"I've met you, teacher."

"Greetings, Master."

Hongjun said kindly, "No need for formalities."

"Now that you have all achieved something, some are rulers of a region, and some are Dao masters of a region, I am deeply gratified and have lived up to your titles of teacher and Dao ancestor."

"The heavens are in a state of great harmony, and my Way flourishes daily."

As Hongjun finished speaking, flowers rained down from the sky and golden lotuses sprang from the ground within the Zixiao Palace. The River of Time and Space appeared, and the River of Destiny was faintly visible within it.

The four celestial guardians of heaven and earth—Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—ascended into the sky, emitting bursts of sound.

The three thousand Great Daos were revealed one by one. In the primordial world, the Great Daos roared, rain fell from the sky, and ten thousand colorful rays of light rose up between heaven and earth. The eight sounds of heaven and earth resounded throughout the primordial world.

Donghua and the others sensed something and each released their own Great Dao, echoing Hongjun's Three Thousand Great Daos, leaping and jumping among themselves.

The sound of the Great Way permeates even the silence.

Hongjun is preaching the Dao once again!

Donghua quickly closed his mind and immersed himself in the three thousand Great Daos displayed by Hongjun, carefully comprehending them.

Hongjun's Three Thousand Great Daos were thoroughly engraved within the primordial world this time, and all sentient beings with spirits and those with affinity could comprehend the ultimate principles of the Great Dao from within the world.

This may be the last time Hongjun grants all beings the opportunity to cultivate the Tao.

Time passed by unnoticed. Donghua felt that the Great Dao that Hongjun was transmitting this time was obscure and difficult to understand, but he was unwilling to miss it. When he realized that he could not comprehend it...

They took out the Pure World White Lotus, the Pure Yang Sword, and other spiritual treasures and began to inscribe these great Dao principles.

But before long, none of the people in the hall were able to comprehend it any further; they all woke up.

As the last person awoke, the three thousand Great Daos emanating from Hongjun dissipated one by one.

Many people inside the hall tried to grab it unwillingly, but it was like a flower in a mirror or the moon's reflection in water.

All the strange phenomena within Zixiao Palace began to dissipate!

After everyone calmed down, they thanked them again, saying, "Thank you for your compassion, teacher."

"The Dao that I am imparting to you this time is the Dao of the Primordial Golden Immortal Realm, which I comprehended after attaining enlightenment. If one day you can attain the Primordial Dao, you will be able to understand the principles clearly. Right now, you can only comprehend one or two aspects, but even these one or two aspects will be of great benefit to your attainment of enlightenment."

Hongjun said he could comprehend one or two things, but Donghua estimated that about 90% of the people in this hall could not even comprehend one part, because many of them were still at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level.

This shows that these words were spoken to the audience members in the front row.

Sure enough, teachers always prefer students who excel academically, no matter where they are.

A pagoda appeared in Hongjun's hand, and Donghua saw that it was the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda.

"You five did a great job this time, and I am very pleased."

He pushed the exquisite pagoda forward, and it fell into the Supreme Lord's hands.

"It's all thanks to the teachings of my master/teacher!"

"Originally, I planned to resolve this calamity before going into seclusion, but I was so engrossed in the Great Dao that I missed the opportunity."

"You five have done very well. Is there anything you wish to ask for?"

Tongtian Fuxi and the others quickly said, "For the sake of the prehistoric world, we dare not take credit; we have no other desires."

Hongjun: "Since that's the case, then forget it."

Donghua said timidly, "Teacher, I have a favor to ask."

At this moment, everyone looked over, but Donghua Tai remained calm and composed.

Others thought that Hongjun's trip to Zixiao Palace was to spread his teachings, but only Donghua knew that Hongjun was about to leave for good.

It can't be said that he has completely left, but it's not far off. Once Hongjun merges with the Dao, he will be with the Dao and walk with the heavens, and will no longer care about the living beings of the prehistoric world.

Unless it concerns the primordial world and the workings of the Heavenly Dao.

So if you don't take advantage of these deals now, you'll never have the chance again.

Hongjun, in a very humane way, said, "Tell me!"

"My teacher took pity on me and appointed me as the head of the male immortals, but I have yet to achieve anything, and I find it hard to feel at ease."

Upon hearing this, everyone assumed that Donghua had come to demand power from Hongjun, and Dijun and Donghuang wore unfriendly expressions.

But Donghua changed the subject and began to explain his plan to compile the Thirty-Six Divine Powers of the Heavenly Gang.

"Master, my cultivation is low. Although I have received support from several fellow Daoists such as Nuwa and Tongtian, I am still far from reaching the Heavenly Dipper level. For the sake of the younger generation of immortals, I beg you for your help."

Upon hearing this, Hongjun smiled slightly: "Good, good, good. It's truly commendable that you have such a heart. You are worthy of the title of the head of male immortals."

"I can easily complete the great supernatural power of this Heavenly Dipper Number, but this fortune is insignificant to me and of little use. Are you all willing to enjoy this fortune?"

Taishang, Hongjun's eldest disciple, shook his whisk: "Fellow Daoist Taiwei has done such a good deed, which is of great merit. I have the supernatural powers to turn back the sun and heavens; to summon rain and wind; to use the Five Elements Great Escape; to use the Six Jia Qimen; to use the Nine Breaths to absorb Qi; to guide the primordial Yang; and to scatter beans to turn them into soldiers."

Upon hearing this, Donghua immediately took out a golden book.

The golden book soared into the air, and with a sweep of the Supreme Being's whisk, several supernatural powers were recorded on it.

Seeing Taishang's heroic spirit, Yuanshi tapped his Ruyi a few times, recording several supernatural powers on it: standing upright without a shadow; transforming into a new form; turning the earth into steel; controlling the five thunderbolts; and overturning rivers and seas.

Subsequently, Di Jun, Tai Yi, Zhen Yuanzi, Hong Yun, Kun Peng, and others each recorded their supernatural abilities.

By the time it finally reached Donghua, it contained 108 kinds of supernatural powers.

After taking back the golden book, Donghua thanked the people in the main hall and finally bowed to Hongjun.

"Thank you for your help, teacher."

"Since you have this intention, I should help you!"

Hongjun glanced at Donghua and thought his judgment was quite good; this was an excellent choice for a male immortal.

"Haotian, Yaochi"

Two children stepped forward and addressed him as "Master".

"How long have you been following me?"

Haotian thought for a moment and said, "Reporting to Master, this disciple does not know either. I only know that at that time, the prehistoric world was still ruled by the three races."

Hongjun nodded slightly: "It's been a long time. You've served me for so long, it's time to set you free."

"master……"

"Do not say more."

Hongjun gently touched Haotian Yaochi, and the two of them quickly transformed, their magical power surging and accompanied by the laws of the Great Dao.

The two of them had already reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and now they were simply unleashing their full power.

In an instant, Haotian transformed into a middle-aged man dressed in a yellow Taoist robe, his black beard reaching all the way to his chest, adding to his imposing presence. Yaochi, on the other hand, transformed into a strikingly beautiful young female immortal.

"Haotian, Yaochi, from now on you may call me your teacher. Take these spiritual treasures for your self-defense."

Inside the main hall, some people gasped in surprise. This Dao Ancestor was truly generous, bestowing four top-tier spiritual treasures upon just two mere attendants.

"After you leave Zixiao Palace, do you have anywhere to go?"

"Please give me your guidance, teacher."

Hongjun glanced at the Three Pure Ones, then at Dijun, and finally fixed his gaze on Donghua, saying, "You were originally my disciples. Today you should be leaving to go to my disciples, but their paths are not suitable for you. So go to the Purple Mansion Penglai, what do you say?"

"I am willing to listen to the teacher's instructions."

The silent Donghua never expected his teacher to give him such a task. If these two followed him, could the Lich Queen still become the Heavenly Emperor and Golden Mother?

At this point, everyone felt that something big must be happening today. The teacher had said that he had preached three times.

But today can also be considered a preaching session.

Moreover, he was so kind today, and now that even the servants have been dismissed, how could nothing serious have happened?

All eyes were on Hongjun, listening to what he had to say.
