Primordial Era: I, the Thirteenth Witch, had my innermost thoughts overheard by my older siblings.

"The key to sainthood? How is that possible?"

As Yuanshi and Tongtian spoke, their eyebrows furrowed together.

Xuandu was just a primordial human, how could he possibly be the key to their attainment of sainthood?

"This is true. The human race was created by Nuwa, and they possess great fortune, making them different from all living beings in the primordial world. If we want to establish a great religion to educate all living beings in the primordial world, we will inevitably have to educate the human race."

"Therefore, he is the key to our enlightenment and sainthood!"

Lao Tzu's expression tightened slightly, and when he said the last sentence, his expression became even more solemn.

Upon hearing Laozi's words, Tongtian's expression turned slightly serious. "Brother, you mean that he is the most special one among all living beings. If we want to educate all living beings, we cannot ignore him. Only by educating him well can we attain enlightenment and become saints."

"good!"

Upon hearing Tongtian's question, Laozi couldn't help but nod.

He originally intended to establish a religion of humanity and then attain sainthood.

Ye Kai interfered and took away his opportunity.

This incident also made him realize the importance of the human race.

Therefore, his capture of Xuandu was not only to steal the human race's fortune, but also to prepare for his own path to sainthood!

"In that case, we need to understand the structure of his Dao body, then deduce a cultivation method suitable for him, and then integrate this cultivation method into our Dao methods."

"Only by establishing a great religion in this way can one attain enlightenment and sainthood!"

At this moment, Yuanshi also understood. Although he frowned, his gaze was fixed on Xuandu.

After a long while, he nodded silently, "Although the human body is weak, it is still much better than those with fur and horns."

"Second brother, you are mistaken. All things in the primordial world have spirits, and cannot be generalized in a single sentence."

Upon hearing Yuanshi's words, Tongtian was slightly taken aback, and then disagreed with Yuanshi's statement.

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi snorted lightly, "I disagree. Tongtian, I know you are straightforward and open-minded, but associating with those of different kinds will ultimately tarnish the reputation of the Three Pure Ones!"

As he said this, a hint of anger appeared in his eyes.

After all, Tongtian's relatively calm demeanor upon hearing about Laozi's matter had displeased him.

Now that Tongtian has refuted his words, he is even more dissatisfied.

Laozi didn't try to mediate the dispute between Yuanshi and Tongtian. He just pondered and said, "In that case, let's begin to study the cultivation methods of the human race. While we are studying them, you two junior brothers can also study your own doctrines and the great teachings you have established, in order to prepare for establishing your own religions."

Having said that, he said to Xuandu, "Xuandu, please sit here. Your master and your two uncles will study your Dao body and then deduce the cultivation method for you."

"It's a teacher!"

Upon hearing Laozi's words, Xuandu's eyes lit up.

He didn't know anything about any great religion or how to attain sainthood, but the cultivation method was exactly what he needed right now.

Xuandu dared not hesitate and immediately sat cross-legged, waiting for Laozi and the other two to comprehend his Dao body.

Upon seeing this, Lao Tzu did not hesitate and immediately sat down cross-legged on the spot.

Upon seeing this, Yuanshi and Tongtian ceased their argument and sat down cross-legged.

At that moment, the three of them sat cross-legged in a "品" shape, jointly comprehending the Xuandu Dao Body.

And in this process of contemplation, a hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.

On that very day, Lao Tzu seemed to have an epiphany, and his body trembled as he exclaimed, "I have succeeded! I have succeeded!"

As he said this, Lao Tzu became even more overjoyed.

Upon hearing Laozi's words, Xuandu was overjoyed and quickly cupped his hands in greeting, asking, "Master, have you deduced the method of cultivation for your disciple?"

"I have deduced it. After I establish a great sect, I will teach you the cultivation method."

Upon hearing Xuandu's question, Laozi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately nodded in agreement.

Without hesitation, Lao Tzu immediately summoned the Tai Chi diagram.

As the Tai Chi diagram expanded, wisps of purple energy gathered.

These purple wisps condensed into a purple glow, enveloping the entire Kunlun Mountains.

"I, Laozi of Taiqing, today establish Taoism, taking Tao as its foundation, to enlighten all living beings in the primordial world, and to suppress the Taoist destiny with the Taiji Diagram. Taoism, established!"

As Lao Tzu made this announcement, the Tai Chi diagram began to operate even more rapidly.

A surge of powerful energy converged, causing Lao Tzu's aura to rise even higher.

As the three flowers appeared, three illusory figures materialized behind Laozi.

These three figures resembled Laozi in appearance, but some had kind and gentle eyes, some had a slightly sinister look, and some had deep obsessions. They were undoubtedly Laozi's Three Corpse Gods!

After the Three Corpse Gods materialized, a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi appeared.

The Primordial Purple Qi absorbed the Taoist fortune, and then, with the blessing of the Three Corpse Gods, condensed into a Primordial Dao Fruit.

Upon sensing this, Laozi focused his mind, merging the three corpses into one, then fusing with the Primordial Dao Fruit, before falling into the Three Flowers and returning to his body.

Then, Lao Tzu's body trembled, and an even more surging aura of a sage burst forth.

"Laozi has attained enlightenment and become a saint?!"

"I never imagined I'd achieve sainthood so quickly?!"

"Taoism? Lao Tzu established a great religion and became a saint. Could establishing a religion be the key to becoming a saint?"

"..."

Sensing this scene, the people of the prehistoric world couldn't help but tense up and began to discuss it among themselves.

Although Ye Kai had already established a great sect, he founded the Human Sect of the Human Race and returned the sect's fortune to the human race. Therefore, although he successfully established the sect, he did not absorb the fortune to improve his cultivation, let alone use this fortune to prove his Dao and become a saint.

Therefore, even if some powerful beings in the primordial world saw the opportunity within, to the billions of living beings in the primordial world, it was merely the creation of a human sect and the taking away of Laozi's opportunity.

But now,

After his opportunity was taken away, Lao Tzu quickly re-established a great religion and thus attained sainthood, which allowed them to see more and clearer things.

Founding a great religion is very likely the key to attaining enlightenment and sainthood.

Even if one cannot become a saint, one can still gather and refine fortune to improve one's own cultivation.

and,

And it was at this moment!

"I did it! I did it too!"

From the Kunlun Mountains, another voice filled with surprise rang out.

Then Yuanshi ascended to the sky above Kunlun, declaring, "Today, I, Yuqing Yuanshi, also establish a great religion, named Chanjiao, to elucidate the true meaning of the Heavenly Way, to enlighten the world, and to suppress the destiny with the Pangu Banner. Chanjiao, established!"

With this announcement from Yuanshi, he immediately summoned the Pangu Banner, which suppressed the fortune of the Chan Sect.

Then the five elements circulated, the three flowers gathered at the top, and the three corpse gods and the primordial purple qi emerged one after another.

However, unlike Lao Tzu, Yuan Shi severed both the good and evil corpses at this moment.

Therefore, after his Three Corpse Gods manifested, his aura was slightly weaker than Laozi's.

However, he didn't care about these things. Instead, he activated the Primordial Purple Qi and forcibly fused the Three Corpse Gods together, and then fused with the Primordial Dao Fruit.

"boom--"

As the Primordial Dao Fruit entered his body, a powerful aura of a sage immediately rippled outwards.

"There is yet another saint, and one who founded a great religion and attained sainthood."

"It seems that establishing a great religion really works!"

"Now, let's see what Shangqing Tongtian intends to do."

"..."

Sensing this, the people of the primordial world became even more focused.

At this moment, all their eyes were focused on Kunlun.

Not only them, but even Ye Kai was taken aback when he sensed this and looked over at Kunlun as well.

"I never imagined he could establish a religion and become a saint like this. If that's the case, then Tongtian should also..."

Before Ye Kai finished speaking, a sharp sword intent burst forth.

Soaring straight to the sky!
