Primordial Era: Innate gourd vine, self-dismemberment

Yuan Yan was not interested in the Nine Phoenixes' ability to foresee the future, as revealed by Xihe, Changxi, and Ziguang, because he already knew it, and in fact, he knew more than Ziguang, Xihe, and Changxi did.

On the contrary, Yuan Yan was more surprised and interested in the powerful beings and secrets of the great beast calamity revealed by Xihe, Changxi, and Ziguang.

Although he had already broken through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm and subsequently attained sainthood, he still didn't really know much about the powerful beings and secrets of the era of the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts.

After all, the Heavenly Dao had not yet been born at that time, and there were not many records of it.

As for going against the flow of time to see that era?

Any Great Luo Golden Immortal can conceal themselves. Unless one has a precise time point and coordinates, and is prepared to offend the powerful beings of the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts, and forcibly break through their concealment, there is no secret that can be seen.

Even if you do see it, it might not be real; it could be fake.

For example, someone might travel back in time to the point before their birth.

What he saw first was a blurry chaos. If he tried to break through it by force, unless his cultivation level was much higher than his, he would definitely sense it and provoke a counterattack from across time and space.

Even if the methods are amazing and can be broken silently, what one can see is only four clusters of innate Yin-Yang and Five Elements origins growing with the innate gourd vine, not that his main body is the innate gourd vine, and that the Yuan Realm, Yuan Wheel, and Yuan Spirit are the three selves he cut off and entrusted a section of the innate gourd vine to emerge.

If he has the means to make some small moves in the river of time, other powerful people may not be able to do the same!

As for why Xihe, Changxi, and Ziguang knew about some powerful beings and secrets from the era of ferocious beasts?

That is because during the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts, Star Gods also emerged in the boundless starry sky.

Taiyang Zhuzhao, Taiyin Wangshu, and Ziwei Doumu Yuanjun are all top-tier innate gods and demons.

Although they all perished in the calamity of ferocious beasts, they all left behind some inheritances and messages on Taiyin Star/Ziwei Star, which were obtained by Xihe, Changxi, and Ziguang after they broke through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm.

However, at this moment, they saw that more than fifty star gods were frozen in time and space, falling into a state of ignorance and unconsciousness.

Although Xihe, Changxi, and Ziguang had many questions to ask, they did not linger too long and did not ask all of them, but only some of the more important ones.

Before long, Xihe, Changxi, and Ziguang finished their consultations, and Yuanyan also freed the more than fifty star gods from the frozen space-time.

At this time, seeing that Xihe, Changxi, and Ziguang had also chosen to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage, six more star gods changed their minds and expressed their willingness to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage.

In the end, only eighteen Star Gods did not intend to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage.

They are either preparing to join the demon race, or to join the Earthly Court, or to go into seclusion and cultivate in seclusion.

Among them, the majority intend to seek refuge with the Earthly Court!

The reason they preferred to rely on the Earthly Court, the demon race, and live in seclusion rather than join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage was not because the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage did not offer them good treatment.

Rather, the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage has too many rules. If they joined the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage, they would not be able to do as they pleased. They were unwilling to be subject to too many restrictions, and might even be suppressed or killed by the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage according to the rules.

The Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage is too powerful. Even if they join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage, they will not be valued and will not receive much resources or fortune. They want to take a chance and join the Earth Court or the Demon Clan to cultivate and break through to Quasi-Saint and then to Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

……

Of course, although Yuan Yan could see into people's hearts, he did not do so, nor did he know why these star gods were unwilling to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage.

However, Yuan Yan didn't care. His most valued Xihe, Changxi, and Ziguang had already joined the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage, and he would surely be able to use their identities to control the boundless starry sky in the future.

The remaining dozen or so Star Gods were not important to Yuan Yan, and he naturally didn't care whether they were willing to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage or not.

Seeing that no more Star Gods changed their minds, Yuan Yan didn't linger. With a wave of his hand, he sent back the many Star Gods who were unwilling to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage.

He then gave instructions to the thirty-odd Star Gods who were willing to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage:

If Di Jun wanted to extract the essence of the stars and mobilize its power using the Zhou Tian Star Array, they could not stop him. They could ask Di Jun for some compensation, but not too much. After they returned, they were told to go to the Yingzhou Immortal Island lineage and follow Fu Xi's instructions. Then they were sent back as well.

After seeing off the many star gods, Yuan Yan took a step forward, traversing the endless chaotic void, and returned to the location where he had previously set up the Yin-Yang Chaos Array and was consuming and exhaling chaotic energy.

It once again manifested the true form of the Chaos Gourd Vine, connecting with the Dao array patterns left behind, and continued to use the Yin-Yang Chaos Array to devour and release chaotic energy to protect itself.

Immediately, he took out the Creation Jade Disc borrowed from the Heavenly Dao Hongjun. While studying the Creation Jade Disc, he entered a deep level of enlightenment under its blessing, and at the same time, he inhaled and exhaled chaotic energy to replenish his own original power and supply his body for transformation and sublimation.

As for summoning the Primordial Realm, the Primordial Wheel, the Primordial Spirit, Fuxi, and Nuwa to come together to comprehend the Jade Disc of Creation and to attain enlightenment and cultivate under its blessing?

Now is not the time!

Seven or eight Yuanhui ago, he separated a divine thought avatar and returned to Yingzhou Immortal Island, where he gave instructions to the five people in the Yuan Realm, discussed the Dao with them, and guided their cultivation.

After the discussion and guidance concluded, his divine avatar returned to his original body, while the five people from the primordial realm entered a deep state of enlightenment and cultivation.

After several eons of enlightenment and cultivation, they had thoroughly digested the gains from that divine blessing and the strange, ethereal state of enlightenment they had experienced. Since their cultivation levels could no longer make significant progress in the short term, they all emerged from seclusion and temporarily suspended their cultivation.

Prepare to go all out to thoroughly purify the innate earth veins of the Northern Continent as soon as possible, relocate and reconstruct the earth vein network of the Northern Continent, and use it to set up the Heaven and Earth Returning to Origin Array, once again proclaim to the heaven and earth, obtain immeasurable merit and fortune, and take the opportunity to fall into a strange state of ethereal enlightenment again, so as to break through the cultivation realm once more.

Yuan Yan was very supportive of this!

Even now, Yuan Yan felt that they should go all out to first thoroughly purify the innate earth veins of the Northern Continent, relocate and reconstruct the earth vein network of the Northern Continent, and use it to set up the Heaven and Earth Returning to Origin Array, once again proclaiming to the heavens and earth that they would obtain immeasurable merit and fortune, and then use the Creation Jade Disc to cultivate after their cultivation realm breaks through.

Because the higher one's cultivation level, the more efficient one's enlightenment and cultivation become.

Take him as an example!

He listened to the Dao at Zixiao Palace three times; he repeatedly obtained massive amounts of Heavenly Dao merit, and under the blessing of merit and fortune, he entered a strange state of ethereal enlightenment; he occasionally burned some merit to aid his cultivation; he received the blessing of the lineage of Yingzhou Immortal Island; he consumed many treasures that aided his cultivation; and he was able to comprehend the Great Dao rules contained in many innate spiritual treasures and innate spiritual roots...
