Primordial Era: My father is Hongjun, who dares disobey!

"Above Taiyi is Daluo. Daluo is where all time and space are eternal, without entering reincarnation, without birth or death." Hongjun spoke loudly, word by word, from his high seat.

The instant he finished speaking, he clearly sensed that the power of the Heavenly Dao was increasing, and his own Dao techniques were gradually being perfected. Perhaps, after passing on the Dao of the Sage three times, he would be able to merge with the Dao.

However, upon thinking of this, Hongjun couldn't help but worry about Jiang Daoxuan. The three sermons had spanned a total of 15,000 years. Even if he delayed further, it seemed that with Daoxuan's good fortune and background, he would not be able to reach the Quasi-Saint realm within those 20,000 years.

"It seems we need to prepare in advance."

Without much deliberation, he secretly intended to leave some contingency plans for Jiang Daoxuan.

After he merges with the Dao, he will inevitably reside in the primordial abode of the Heavenly Dao deep within the chaos, and will be subject to its constraints. It will be difficult for him to enter the primordial world again.

So he decided to leave Jiang Daoxuan some means of survival beforehand.

At this point in time,

Hongjun once again achieved perfect harmony of mind and body, uttering eloquent words and witnessing numerous extraordinary phenomena.

"My way lies in the five elements and the three flowers. The five elements are heart fire, liver wood, spleen earth, lung metal, and kidney water. When the five elements converge and permeate the whole body, yin and yang are in harmony."

Everyone was immediately struck by the sound of divine music, the humming of the Great Dao resounded in their ears, and golden light flashed around them as they all entered a state of enlightenment.

Seeing this, Hongjun nodded slightly and continued, "When the five elements are perfected, they can condense into the three flowers of Heaven, Earth, and Man, which correspond to the cultivator's spirit, qi, and essence in turn. The three flowers bloom at the top of the head, and when they are combined into one, they can form the Dao Fruit and give birth to the golden lotus, which is called the Great Luo."

"When the golden lotus flower blooms to the seventh grade, one can enter the Quasi-Saint realm; when it blooms to the ninth grade, one can attain the Primordial Chaos realm and become a Heavenly Saint."

"..."

The golden light emanating from everyone grew even brighter, and Hongjun continued to explain how to gather the five elements and condense the Dao fruit.

In a blink of an eye,

Three thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Until one day, several cries of phoenixes and roars of dragons suddenly echoed from the chaos. Immediately, all the beings of the primordial world seemed to sense something and looked up into the depths of the chaos...

At this moment, in the Purple Cloud Palace,

The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and even Jieyin, Zhunti, Dijun, and other beings with great fortune all possessed powerful auras, with three flowers blooming on their heads, just one step away from condensing their Dao Fruit.

"Freeze!"

As Tongtian finished speaking, the three flowers of Heaven, Earth, and Man merged into one, and a nine-grade golden lotus slowly floated beneath him, its golden light dazzling and radiating boundless power.

At this moment, Shangqing Tongtian's cultivation level actually stepped from the late stage of Daluo to the perfect stage, and his cultivation aura was completely different from before.

"Elder brother, I've broken through."

Tongtian looked at Laozi with a face full of joy. He thought he would be the first to condense the Dao Fruit and break through to the Great Luo realm, but he did not expect that Laozi had already condensed a ninth-grade golden lotus under his body, and its aura was stronger than his own.

Helpless, he could only chuckle softly, realizing that he had been arrogant and hadn't expected his elder brother to always be one step ahead of him.

Then, not long after,

Yuanshi, Nuwa, Dijun, Donghuang, and other mortals among the three thousand guests have all condensed Dao Fruits, with their blossoms reaching the eighth or ninth grade, and many of them possess the potential to become quasi-saints.

"good!"

Upon seeing this, Hongjun was about to praise him, but unexpectedly, he suddenly frowned, then closed his eyes slightly, and his expression became serious.

He then did a quick calculation and understood the situation.

Before anyone could ask, Hongjun snorted coldly, and then a vast golden light shot out from between his fingers, shattering the void and covering tens of thousands of miles in an instant.

At the same time, he whispered the order:

"From then on, throughout the myriad realms, this teaching was not to be passed on to more than six ears."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was taken aback and began to discuss it amongst themselves.

"Six-eared? Is it the Six-Eared Macaque?"

"That must be true, but I wonder what wrong the Six-Eared One did to provoke such wrath from the Daoist Master?"

"Alas, have you all forgotten the supernatural power of the Six-Eared Man? The Six-Eared Man is a divine being, skilled in hearing sounds."

Everyone suddenly realized what was going on.

At the same moment,

In a celestial cave somewhere in the primordial world

A macaque with a monkey-like face and six ears suddenly knelt down and begged for mercy, exclaiming in surprise:

"Daoist Master, spare my life! This little monkey is the reincarnation of the Chaos Demon Ape, born with six ears. He is naturally good at listening and discerning reason, and unintentionally used his supernatural powers to steal the teachings of the sages."

The Six-Eared Macaque, who only possessed the cultivation level of Taiyi, was filled with terror at this moment, and his already short stature suddenly shrank.

However, Hongjun did not listen to his explanation. Once the decree of the sage was issued, there was no possibility of it being taken back.

Thus, the decree resounded throughout the primordial world, and countless beings, intimidated by the saint's majesty, fled to Liu Er.

Seeing this, Hongjun finally regained his composure and was about to announce that the next sermon would be held three thousand years later when a commotion came from Daoxuan beside him.

Everyone turned to look, their gazes all falling on Jiang Daoxuan, whose eyes remained tightly closed.

At this moment, everyone saw that his cultivation level had decreased rather than increased, but his aura was stronger than before.

"What happened?"

Nuwa, who was closest to Jiang Daoxuan, spoke first, her beautiful eyes revealing undisguised shock.

Everyone was also surprised, because the power emanating from Jiang Daoxuan at this moment was different from before, and seemed to be a power equivalent to the cultivation of the Heavenly Dao.

At this moment, Jiang Daoxuan's mind was tense, and he was in the vast void, with his thoughts directed towards the path ahead.

Indeed, he was in a state of enlightenment at this moment. He could cultivate and comprehend the Dao simply by taking a step forward, and create a completely new cultivation system.

However, at this moment, he was not confident that he could cultivate to the end, or even surpass the path of sainthood, despite the countless temptations before him.

He stood there silently for a long time.

In the end, he stepped out of the Enlightenment Realm on his own, and slowly opened his eyes amidst the astonished gazes of everyone.

Upon seeing this, some sighed, some lamented, but many more gloated.

Of course, he didn't care.

"Daoist Venerable".

After rising slightly, Jiang Daoxuan respectfully bowed to Hongjun.

Seeing this, Hongjun smiled and gestured, his eyes showing no disappointment or confusion at Jiang Daoxuan's abandonment of enlightenment. In his view, his own path of severing the three corpses was inferior to that of Pangu's path of proving himself through the laws, and contained many flaws.

Since Jiang Daoxuan was able to forgo the temptation of recreating a system and becoming a supreme being, he might one day be able to glimpse the Primordial Chaos Supreme Realm, in short:

Transcendence!

……

Before long, the sermon ended, and the crowd, their minds returning to normal, were about to bid farewell to the Daoist Master and return home when, unexpectedly, the figure who had been waiting for so long suddenly stepped forward, asking fervently:

"May I ask the Venerable One, is it possible for the Witch Clan to cultivate the primordial spirit?"

Everyone looked over and saw a stunningly beautiful woman with bronze skin, covered by withered branches and green leaves, standing tall in the hall, her gaze firm and devout.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Daoxuan was immediately startled. Looking at the woman's stunningly beautiful figure, brimming with explosive power, he thought to himself:

"Houtu, one of the twelve ancestral witches, was formed from the essence and blood of the great god Pangu. She is the most wise and benevolent being among the witches."

Hongjun did not answer directly, but instead looked at Jiang Daoxuan and said loudly:

"Dao Xuan, you two share the same path, so you should go with her to the Witch Clan."

"Yes, Daoist Master."

Jiang Daoxuan immediately agreed.
