The first disciple of the Three Pure Ones, Little Sizi's immortal brother

"Seniors, what's going on here...?"

Seeing that none of the surrounding innate deities were willing to speak first, Shi Ming had no choice but to speak first.

He was confident he could escape from a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, but this group of people before him were all Grand Luo Golden Immortals, and not just ordinary ones. They were all equipped with powerful magical treasures, and Taiyi likely even possessed a Primordial Treasure…

How can he escape now?

The only thing we can do now is to find out why they've gathered here, and if possible, we can only try to escape by clinging to their coattails.

"Elder brother, this..." Tongtian looked at his elder brother, Taiqing Laozi.

"Interesting." Lao Tzu stroked his beard and laughed. "The background of this junior is not much different from ours."

None of those present were ordinary people, so they could naturally see that Shi Ming had already reached the cultivation level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal as soon as he stepped out of the Innate Grand Formation. Apart from the Three Pure Ones, no one present dared to say that they could surpass him in terms of background.

After all, the Three Pure Ones were originally Pangu's primordial spirit, which was divided into three parts. This origin is unique in the prehistoric world.

"Since you have already taken human form, there is no point in us fighting over you. Why don't we let you choose for yourself?" At this moment, Hongyun, the benevolent man of the prehistoric world, stepped forward. The yellow-robed Taoist behind him silently took a step forward, seemingly intending to take sides.

"Good." Lao Tzu, representing the Three Pure Ones, made the choice and agreed.

They were originally drawn here by the aura of opportunity and fortune emanating from this place after listening to the teachings. Now that what they were fighting for has taken form, their struggle is meaningless.

"Alright." Di Jun pulled back Tai Yi, who had a slightly more volatile temper, and nodded as well. Although he was confident that his second brother was invincible, there were so many people present...

Thinking of this, Di Jun looked warily in the direction of the Three Pure Ones.

"I..." Seeing that Zhundi still wanted to say something, Jieyin quickly pulled him back. So many people present had already agreed, and even if they were shameless, they couldn't possibly gain any favor in front of so many people.

Although he vaguely sensed that there was something about the other person that was connected to him, he had no choice but to keep quiet and pray that Shi Ming would choose the West.

Nuwa and Shi Ming remained mostly silent throughout the entire meeting. Nuwa, however, kept looking Shi Ming up and down with a curious gaze. She recognized a familiar aura about him, which was one of the reasons she had come here.

Seeing that the big shots had reached a consensus, some of the unwilling cultivators around could only leave. After all, it was said that the other party had the choice, but Shi Ming, who was standing in the middle, was not stupid. How could he possibly choose these people with low strength?

"Young friend, you've heard it too. The right to choose is in your hands. Of course, no one will blame you if you don't choose," Hongyun said with a smile as she stepped forward.

Shi Ming glanced at Hong Yun. It was true that this kind-hearted man thought that way, but the others around him might not.

Especially those two shameless Westerners, if they really didn't choose either of them and chose to leave on their own, they would probably be lured away by these two guys before they even took a few steps.

At best, he was converted to Buddhism and became a disciple in the West. If he had been worse off, he would probably have been refined into a magic weapon along with the bitter bamboo.

"Esteemed seniors, before making this choice, I have another question in my mind, and I hope you can enlighten me." Shi Ming bowed to those around him and said, "I am but a humble bamboo in human form, how can I bear the kindness of you seniors? What is the reason behind this..."

"You've only recently taken human form, so it's normal that you don't understand some things yet. Do you know anything about destiny?" Seeing Shi Ming's politeness, Yuan Shi nodded in satisfaction and unusually took the initiative to explain, his words tinged with emotion, "The destiny you possess is something even we have never seen before..."

Shi Ming was taken aback for a moment, then understood.

Luck is mysterious and profound, yet it is a tangible thing in the primordial world.

Those with high fortune can avoid death and prolong life, have endless opportunities, smooth spiritual practice, and be free from all taboos.

Those with low fortune suffer from clouded spirits, are beset by calamities, stumble in their spiritual practice, and find it difficult to accomplish anything.

If a power is at its zenith, then those who join it will have divine assistance in their cultivation; conversely, if a power is in decline, not only will their cultivation be hindered, but they will also risk death.

If one has enough luck, the leader of a power can even reach that legendary realm and become a saint directly in the primordial world!

Although this is just a legend, Shi Ming believes that it is definitely not a baseless rumor.

Thinking of the various magical treasures he possessed and the bitter bamboo on his wrist, Shi Ming seemed to have found the reason for his exceptionally good luck.

The surrounding innate deities probably all thought that what was being nurtured in the innate grand formation was some kind of treasure of fortune, or some kind of spiritual treasure that could suppress fortune. When Shi Ming came out, they were probably all dumbfounded.

"Thank you for your explanation, senior." Shi Ming bowed again, and Yuan Shi nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing this, the group of powerful figures felt annoyed. Why didn't they speak up for Shi Ming earlier to clear things up? That way, they could have at least increased Shi Ming's favor and made him more inclined to choose them.

Shi Ming looked around and began to silently consider things.

"Young friend, I sense a glimmer of opportunity within you. I suppose you are destined to be connected with the West. Perhaps..."

"You're talking nonsense! You two bald monks think everything is related to the West!" Before Jieyin could finish speaking, Taiyi, who had a rather volatile temper, interrupted him.

Although the powerful figures standing nearby did not speak, they inwardly agreed with Taiyi's words to some extent.

They had already witnessed the shamelessness of these two Westerners during their first sermon...

Shi Ming glanced at Jieyin, who was probably referring to the bitter bamboo wrapped around his wrist. However, now that he was here, he had no reason to let his companion be refined into a magic weapon. He had never considered those two bald monks from the West from the beginning.

Hongyun's personality is good as a friend, but not so good as a backer. Although Zhen Yuanzi is there, he is not the best choice.

Although Di Jun and Tai Yi will have their peak moments, they are the protagonists of the next great calamity. Shi Ming doesn't think he has the ability to change the general trend of the prehistoric world.

Nuwa... she's quite beautiful.

After much thought, Lao Tzu, one of the Three Pure Ones, seems the most suitable.

The future number one in combat power among sages, a direct disciple of Hongjun, and the senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect...

"Disciple Shi Ming greets Master." With that thought, Shi Ming bowed to Taiqing Laozi without hesitation.

"Get up. From now on, you will be my first disciple, Taiqing." Taiqing nodded with satisfaction and used his magic to lift Shiming up.

"Congratulations, elder brother, on the arrival of such a fine disciple." Although Yuanshi and Tongtian had some regrets, the Three Pure Ones were now as close as family, so they were naturally happy for Taiqing as well.
