Primordial Era: Me, starting with the Primordial Enlightenment Tree

Di Jun had just finished speaking.

In an instant, the gazes of all living beings in the main hall of Zixiao Palace were focused on him.

Everyone present held their breath, waiting for Hongjun's response, wondering if he would appoint Dijun as the head of the male immortals.

At the same time, a deep sense of regret welled up in their hearts, regretting that they were a step too slow and that Di Jun had gotten there first.

Especially Jieyin, Zhunti, and Kunpeng, they were filled with regret.

They believed their strength was no less than that of the brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi. If it weren't for Tai Yi holding the Chaos Bell, a supreme innate treasure that suppressed the primordial world, they wouldn't have taken the two brothers seriously at all.

However, Tianci saw all of this as nothing but mockery.

"Di Jun, Di Jun, do you really think that by being the first to speak, you can seize the position of the head of male immortals from Hongjun Saint..."

"Absolutely ridiculous!"

Looking at the scene before him, Tianci smiled coldly to himself. As a transmigrator from the future, he knew better than anyone that Hongjun had already decided on the positions of the head of the male and female immortals, and it was impossible for them to fall to Dijun.

It could even be said that in the eyes of the sage Hongjun, the brothers Dijun and Taiyi were nothing more than pawns destined to be sacrificed in the future Lich War.

If it weren't for the fact that the Eastern King Duke's ambition grew too large and he couldn't wait to compete with Di Jun and Tai Yi for control of the Heavenly Court's destiny, Haotian would never have had the chance to ascend to the throne of the Heavenly Court's ruler.

Otherwise, why would Hongjun appoint him as the head of the male immortals? In fact, from the moment Hongjun made this decision, he had already secretly laid the groundwork.

Unfortunately, Dongwanggong was dull-witted and never managed to understand the deeper meaning behind Hongjun's arrangement.

If the Eastern King Duke had known how to bide his time and wait patiently until the end of the Lich War, this vast Heavenly Court would inevitably have fallen into his hands.

But he insisted on courting death, failing to see the will of Heaven and daring to defy it, ultimately meeting a tragic end with his body and soul scattered.

At this moment, on that cloud bed.

Despite Di Jun's respectful kowtow, Hong Jun paid no attention to him, not even lifting his eyelids, and never once did his gaze fall on him.

When Di Jun, who was standing below the prince, saw that Hongjun had not responded for a long time, his heart sank.

"Does the Sage Hongjun think I am unworthy of this position?"

that's it.

A few more moments passed.

Under the watchful eyes of all living beings in the hall, Hongjun slowly raised his hand, gently waved it, and pointed to Donghua, formed from the extreme yang energy of the east, and Yaochi (the Queen Mother of the West), formed from the extreme yin energy of the west, saying, "You shall all come forward!"

Ok?

Are you calling me?

Upon hearing Hongjun's words, Donghua froze on the spot!

Yaochi, sitting behind Nuwa, was the same; her exquisite face was filled with bewilderment and confusion.

Despite their doubts, the two still followed his instructions and slowly walked up to Hongjun.

"Could it be... that the Sage Hongjun intends to appoint me as the head of the male immortals?"

The thought flashed through Donghua's mind, and his heart began to pound wildly. He was instantly overwhelmed with excitement.

Could it be that the Sage Hongjun intends to appoint them as the head of male immortals and the head of female immortals?

The next second, all the living beings in the hall also reacted.

No one expected that the lucky ones would be these two seemingly insignificant individuals.

Standing beneath the cloud bed, Di Jun's face was so dark it could drip water...

This is clearly a public slap in the face to him; they don't take him seriously at all...

Di Jun roared furiously in his heart, but facing the immortal Hongjun Saint, he dared not utter a single word of dissatisfaction. He could only suppress his resentment and unwillingness deep in his heart.

In an instant, all the living beings in Zixiao Palace cast incredibly envious glances at Donghua and Yaochi.

These two people actually received the personal favor of the Sage Hongjun; what incredible fortune this is!

After Donghua and Yaochi stood under the cloud bed.

Hongjun looked at the two and slowly said, "Yaochi, your name is the same as that of the attendant under my command. Today, I hereby appoint you as the head of all female immortals in the world. From now on, you will be called the Queen Mother of the West. As for Donghua, you will be renamed the Duke of the East."

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West and the King Father of the East immediately bowed and said, "Thank you for bestowing this name upon us, Your Majesty."

Hongjun continued, "Eastern King Duke and Western Queen Mother, you both possess great fortune and great power. From this day forward, the Eastern King Duke will be the head of all male immortals in the world, managing all male immortals in the primordial realm, and the Western Queen Mother will be the head of all female immortals in the world, managing all female immortals in the primordial realm! I hereby bestow upon the Eastern King Duke the innate spiritual treasure, the 'Dragon Head Staff,' and upon the Western Queen Mother the 'Western Plain Cloud Banner'!"

Seeing that the Sage Hongjun not only bestowed high positions upon them but also personally bestowed spiritual treasures upon them, the Queen Mother of the West and the King Father of the East were overjoyed and quickly bowed again to express their gratitude.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hongjun waved his hand gently, and two dazzling innate spiritual treasures appeared out of thin air in front of the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother.

That dragon-headed staff is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure!

The Western plain-colored cloud banner is also a supreme innate spiritual treasure with immense power.

The creatures inside the hall instantly turned red with envy upon seeing these two top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

That's a primordial spiritual treasure! Of all the beings present, more than half don't even have a decent spiritual treasure!

Especially for Jieyin and Zhunti, the western land where they live has thin spiritual energy and poor resources. It is rare to even see an ordinary acquired spiritual treasure, let alone an innate spiritual treasure.

Now that the Sage Hongjun had casually bestowed two top-grade innate spiritual treasures upon them, the envy in their hearts was beyond words.

The Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother happily accepted the two magical treasures, carefully put them away, and then loudly proclaimed, "We will certainly live up to the sage's trust and fulfill our duties to the best of our ability."

"Hmm." Hongjun nodded slightly, then said to all the primordial beings in the hall, "You may all disperse."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hongjun's figure vanished from Zixiao Palace without leaving a trace.

He truly left no trace and no sound. Apart from Tianci, who could vaguely sense a trace of spatial fluctuations, no other living being present could detect his whereabouts.

Thus, the first sermon by the Sage Hongjun officially came to an end.

In this sermon, Hongjun imparted the Great Dao of Cultivation for Great Luo Golden Immortals.

The next sermon will take place 30,000 years from now.

As a time traveler from the future, Tianci naturally knew what Hongjun would say next!

In his next sermon, Hongjun will impart the supreme method for breaking through to the Quasi-Saint realm.

At this moment, inside the main hall of Zixiao Palace.

As Hongjun's figure disappeared, apart from the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin, Zhunti, Kunpeng, Zhenyuanzi, and Styx, who were all powerful beings who relied on their extraordinary origins and profound cultivation, most of the other beings whose origins and cultivation were far inferior to theirs immediately surrounded the Eastern King Duke, who had just been appointed as the head of the male immortals.

For a time, the Eastern King Duke became the most enviable figure in the eyes of the vast majority of beings in the hall.

Many creatures have even begun to approach him, trying to befriend him and build a relationship.

The Three Pure Ones, Kunpeng, and the others, who were observing all this with indifference, all revealed a mocking sneer on their faces.

Do you really think that just because the Sage Hongjun bestowed upon you the title of the head of male immortals, you can truly control all living beings in the prehistoric world?

Do you have the qualifications?

It's ridiculous!

Just then, Dongwanggong, looking smug and self-satisfied, loudly proclaimed, "Fellow Daoists, I intend to establish a Purple Mansion Continent on the shores of the East Sea. If any of you are interested, you may come to the Purple Mansion and join me in governing the immortals of the Primordial World."

"Ha, he's only just become the head of the male immortals, and his ambition is already showing... No wonder he'll die at the hands of Di Jun and Tai Yi later on; he truly brought this upon himself!"

Looking at the smug look on Dongwanggong's face, Tianci glanced at him sideways as if he were a clown jumping around on a beam.

Having just been appointed as the head of the male immortals, he couldn't wait to recruit these mortal guests who came to listen to the Dao at Zixiao Palace.

This person must have had their brain slammed in a door!

They really treated this title of the head of male immortals, which was all in name only, as some kind of immense power.

It's important to understand that his position as the head of the male immortals is only taken seriously by those with shallow origins and low cultivation levels. Top-tier beings like Kunpeng, Jieyin, and Zhunti don't even consider him a threat. If it weren't for the sake of Hongjun Saint's reputation... he probably wouldn't even have had the chance to leave Zixiao Palace.

Upon hearing Dong Wanggong's words, the creatures inside the hall each had their own thoughts.

Every being who comes to Zixiao Palace to listen to the Dao is a person with great fortune and high aspirations.

How could I possibly condescend to become a subordinate in your Eastern King's Purple Palace?

Moreover, they are all primordial beings born at the dawn of creation, possessing an innate pride that they would never easily submit to others.

In an instant, many of those beings who had just been thinking of befriending Dongwang Gong had already turned their backs and left.

At this moment, Taiyi also stood up from his futon, walked to Dijun's side, and snorted coldly, "Hmph, elder brother, so what if Sage Hongjun doesn't appoint you as the head of the male immortals? This Dongwanggong is just a petty person who has temporarily gained power."

"Well said, Second Brother!" Di Jun took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said in a deep voice, "So what if we don't have the title of the leader of male immortals! With the strength of us brothers, we will surely create an earth-shattering empire in the prehistoric world in the future!"

With Taiyi's words of comfort, all the dissatisfaction and resentment that had accumulated in Dijun's heart vanished instantly.

After a while.

Before long, these worldly travelers who had been listening to the teachings at Zixiao Palace left one after another, transforming into streaks of light and flying towards the primordial land.

"Alright, second brother, third brother, fellow Daoist Nuwa... it's time for us to set off."

Taiqing Laozi glanced at Nuwa and the others beside him and slowly spoke.

"Um!"

"Um!"

Nuwa, Houtu, and the others all nodded slightly.

The group soon left Zixiao Palace and arrived in the chaos outside the palace.

Just then.

"Hmph, Zhunti, you shameless bastard, stop right there!"

Kunpeng stared coldly at Jieyin and Zhunti, who were about to turn and leave, and shouted angrily.

Zhunti, who was speaking in hushed tones with Jieyin, heard Kunpeng's angry shout and slowly turned around. Looking at Kunpeng with a forced smile, he said, "I wonder what brings Fellow Daoist Kunpeng to stop this humble Daoist?"

"Hmph! What is it?" Kunpeng laughed angrily and said sternly, "Don't you know what it is? How dare you steal my futon seat! I will never let you live under the same sky."

Just now, with the Sage Hongjun present in Zixiao Palace, he dared not act recklessly.

But now that we've left Zixiao Palace, in this vast and boundless chaos, can't we still make a move?

As Kunpeng's angry roar subsided.

Those creatures that were preparing to return to the primordial world immediately stopped in their tracks and turned their gazes toward Kunpeng and Zhunti.

Everyone was there to watch the show, ready to see what would happen!

"Master, shall we watch this spectacle before we go back?"

Tianci, held in Nuwa's arms, looked up at the Tongtian Sect Leader and said.

"Alright! Since my good disciple wants to watch the excitement, then we'll stay a little longer."

"Big brother, second brother, what do you think?"

The Master of Heaven asked.

"Well, then I'll do as my junior brother Tianci says."

Taiqing Laozi nodded slightly. They would naturally not refuse their junior disciple Tianci's request. If they displeased Tianci and he refused to help them with their cultivation doubts when they returned, it would be a great loss.

the other side.

Facing Kunpeng's furious roar, Zhunti remained unperturbed, still smiling as he asked, "Then, Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, how do you intend to settle this matter?"

Kunpeng flew into a rage and roared, "What? Of course, I'll take your dog's life!"

The moment the words left his mouth!

Swish!

In the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, a sharp claw gleaming with a cold light appeared out of thin air, its tip wreathed in the brilliance of stars. In an instant, it tore the surrounding void to shreds, as if it were a fatal blow that had crossed over from the ancient past billions of years ago.

The Kunpeng's claw struck down fiercely, tearing several nearby star rivers to shreds.

Rumbling--

A deafening roar suddenly resounded from the chaos, and the entire void trembled violently. On that claw, brilliant starlight and pitch-black light intertwined and swirled, constantly erupting with terrifying energy fluctuations.

He watched as the powerful claw of the Kunpeng came hurtling towards him.

Zhunti showed no fear whatsoever, and he walked across the primordial land for millions of years.

He has faced countless formidable opponents.

Why would they fear a mere Kunpeng?

"Hmph, Kunpeng, you want to take my life? You'd better see if you have the ability!"

Zhunti also shouted angrily.

As soon as a thought crossed his mind, a divine tree appeared out of thin air behind him.

Hanging on the divine tree were seven of the world's most precious treasures: gold, silver, lapis lazuli, giant clam shell, agate, pearl, and rose.

The divine tree currently suspended behind Zhunti is none other than the famous Seven Treasures Tree.

This is a supreme innate spiritual treasure with immense power, capable of both offense and defense, combining both.

A dazzling seven-colored divine light emanated from the Seven Treasures Tree. After Zhunti unleashed this supreme treasure, he swung it fiercely at Kunpeng without hesitation.

In an instant, the seven-colored divine light swept across a star field spanning millions of miles, distorting and disrupting space and time wherever it passed.

In the blink of an eye, the Seven Treasures Tree forcefully knocked the Kunpeng's sharp claws back.

"what……"

Sweeping head-on by the seven-colored divine light of the Seven Treasures Tree, Kunpeng was immediately unable to withstand it, letting out a mournful cry. Then, it leaped into the air and transformed into a giant roc with wingspans that blotted out the sky, disappearing into the vast chaos without looking back.

In fact, Kunpeng's true strength is no less than that of Zhunti. His defeat this time was purely due to the inferiority of his magic weapon.

Moreover, he had previously fought a great battle with the Tongtian Sect Leader and was severely injured by him, and his injuries have not yet fully recovered.

Ok?

How could the Kunpeng escape so easily?
