Primordial Era: Becoming the Great Emperor of Humanity from the Start

Chapter 128 The Beginningless Sutra!

Emperor Xin, the contemporary human emperor, instantly became a prominent figure in the primordial world, remembered by countless powerful individuals.

Not many people actually know about the battle between Emperor Xin and the Sage of Reception; they are mostly quasi-sages and disciples of the Sage.

However, at the wedding of the current Human Emperor, all the powerful beings in the prehistoric world witnessed just how much face the current Human Emperor had.

In any case, a human emperor who can command the congratulations of both the Chan and Jie sects, and who can receive congratulatory gifts from the sage Nuwa, is definitely not to be underestimated.

The human race was already powerful enough. Most of the great beings in the primordial world with a brain would not dare to provoke the human race.

Within the Shang Dynasty, the various feudal lords who had been somewhat restless instantly fell silent and continued to obediently submit to the Shang Dynasty.

Jiang Heng was aware that Yun Zhongzi was still in Chaoge City. However, he had no intention of paying attention to Yun Zhongzi for the time being.

Having just finished his grand wedding, Jiang Heng neither wanted to enjoy the comforts of his new home nor would he pay any attention to Yun Zhongzi before figuring out what Yuanshi Tianzun was thinking.

Yun Zhongzi was unusually anxious. He had visited Jiang Heng several times, but was turned away each time with the excuse that "the Emperor is too busy with affairs."

Having failed to complete the task assigned by Yuanshi Tianzun, Yun Zhongzi naturally could not leave. However, as time went on, Yun Zhongzi feared that something might go wrong.

The disciples of the Jie Sect have already returned to Biyou Palace. If the news is told to the Tongtian Sect Leader, it's hard to imagine what his reaction will be.

Just as Yun Zhongzi was extremely anxious, Taiyi Zhenren, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, suddenly arrived.

"Senior Brother Yun Zhongzi, I just sensed that my disciple has been born into the human race. I should go and accept him as my disciple!" said Master Taiyi.

Yun Zhongzi nodded. He naturally knew who Taiyi Zhenren was referring to, as Yuanshi Tianzun had already given instructions on this matter.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun handed over the Investiture of the Gods to Yuanshi Tianzun, so Yuanshi Tianzun could not possibly be unaware of the several protagonists destined by fate in the Investiture of the Gods calamity.

This is also where the Chan Sect has an advantage over the Jie Sect. Throughout the entire Investiture of the Gods, all the main characters with their own destiny are members of the Chan Sect.

Whether it's Jiang Ziya, Shen Gongbao, Nezha, Yang Jian, Lei Zhenzi, etc., they were all disciples of the Chan Sect.

Originally, during the Great Tribulation, the world was shrouded in a dense aura of malevolent energy, and even sages could not deduce the secrets of heaven.

However, the Chan Sect was able to accurately identify the protagonists of the Investiture of the Gods calamity, and thus recruit these protagonists one by one in advance.

Is this because the Primordial Celestial Venerable possessed profound cultivation? Even amidst the great calamity, he was still able to see through heavenly secrets and thus plan ahead?

Not only would Jiang Heng not believe it, but even the Tongtian Sect Leader wouldn't believe it. If we really get down to it, Dao Ancestor Hongjun is definitely involved.

This shows that the outcome of the struggle between the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect during the Investiture of the Gods was already predetermined.

"Junior Brother Taiyi, your disciple is the reincarnation of the Spirit Pearl, a disciple of the Sage Nuwa. You must not act carelessly!" Yun Zhongzi instructed.

"Of course I know that, and my teacher had given me instructions before! At that time, my disciple had just been born and was still an ignorant child."

"My purpose in going there is only to take him as my disciple first, to avoid any unforeseen complications!" said Master Taiyi.

Yun Zhongzi nodded. Although he had the merit of the Six Paths of Reincarnation protecting him, as a disciple of the Chan Sect, he still had to work hard for the Investiture of the Gods.

With this in mind, Yun Zhongzi decided to visit the current Human Emperor of the Human Race again tomorrow. If he still refused to meet him, he might have no choice but to resort to some means.

After bidding farewell to Yun Zhongzi, Taiyi Zhenren flew to Chentang Pass on the shore of the East Sea, a place inhabited by humans.

Since the time of Emperor Yu, the dragon race has completely submitted to the human race and has become the totem beast of the human race.

Because of the existence of the dragon race, which brings rain and clouds everywhere, the human race enjoys favorable weather year after year, allowing ordinary humans to live in peace and prosperity.

Chen Tang Pass is located on the coast of the East China Sea, a place where humans and dragons meet. It is a place where all sorts of people mingle, and it is not a place where an ordinary general can be stationed.

As the commander-in-chief of Chentang Pass, Li Jing naturally possessed considerable skill. In his early years, Li Jing cultivated the Heaven-Covering Emperor Technique of the human race and later became a disciple of the True Man of Crossing Calamity.

Perhaps due to his talent, although Li Jing has cultivated for many years, he is only at the Xuanxian realm, which is barely considered a decent level of cultivation among humans.

This is because Jiang Heng has been developing the human race for many years. Not only has the Heaven-Covering Emperor's Law spread widely, but it has also become the basic cultivation method of the human race.

Moreover, in terms of cultivation resources, the human race is actually not lacking at all. Various elixirs and miraculous medicines are already commonplace among humans.

It's just that there are simply too many humans, and most of them do have relatively average talent for cultivation.

Therefore, by the time of the Great Shang Dynasty, nearly 70% of the humans living on the prehistoric land were ordinary humans without any cultivation.

Of the remaining 30%, those who have truly achieved success in cultivation and ascended to the Immortal Realm are already considered quite good; those who have truly made a difference are actually not many.

Moreover, those humans with truly profound cultivation all hide in blessed lands and secluded places to cultivate in seclusion, and rarely roam freely across the primordial land.

Although Li Jing's cultivation level as a Xuanxian was not particularly strong, it was more than enough for him to guard Chentang Pass.

For humans, regardless of whether they have become immortals, the desire to continue the family line is an obsession ingrained in their very bones.

Therefore, after Li Jing became the general of Chentang Pass, he married and had two sons.

The eldest son, Jinzha, has been exceptionally gifted since childhood and is now a disciple of Manjushri, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect.

The second son, Muzha, was also exceptionally talented. From a young age, he was taken in as a disciple by Puxian Zhenren, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect.

From this perspective, the speed of the Chan Sect was undeniably fast; before anyone knew it, they had already completely taken over Li Jing's family.

Now, Li Jing's wife is pregnant with her third child, but this pregnancy is extremely strange. She has been pregnant for three years, but the baby has not yet been born.

On this day, Lady Li Jing's belly finally showed signs of labor. Not long after, Lady Li Jing gave birth, but she gave birth to a ball.

That's right! It really is a ball! And a bright red, fleshy ball at that!

Li Jing was a cultivator, and he had seen all sorts of strange things. But when he saw this ball of flesh, he was still stunned for a moment.

Possessed by a demon? Reincarnated as a demon god? Or perhaps some powerful Taoist magic? In an instant, countless questions flooded Li Jing's mind.

Suddenly, the ball of flesh crashed directly into Li Jing. Without thinking, Li Jing drew his sword and slashed.

The slash struck the fleshy ball squarely, and a flash of red light appeared, instantly revealing a three-year-old child in front of Li Jing.

Even though Li Jing was a man of great experience, he was stunned by this strange situation and didn't know what to do.

Just then, a voice came from mid-air: "I am the Taiyi Zhenren of Jinguang Cave on Qianyuan Mountain. I have come here by chance. Please forgive me if I have disturbed you."

Li Jing's two children were both disciples of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, so they naturally knew of the great name of Taiyi Zhenren.

Upon seeing the arrival of the Immortal Taiyi, Li Jing dared not be negligent and quickly stepped forward to pay his respects, though his heart was filled with doubt.

"Senior Taiyi, what brings you here?" Li Jing inquired.

"Your newborn child is destined to be my disciple, and I have come here to take him as my apprentice!" Master Taiyi said with a smile.

Li Jing was overjoyed. He had thought the strange phenomena that occurred when his third child was born were the work of some demon or monster.

But now that even the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, including Taiyi Zhenren, have come to accept disciples, it naturally shows that his third son is without any problems.

Those extraordinary phenomena precisely demonstrate that his third son possessed exceptional talent. Otherwise, why would the Immortal Taiyi personally come to accept him as a disciple?

Overjoyed, Li Jing was about to agree when he saw a three-year-old child running up to him—his newborn third son.

"Taiyi Zhenren? One of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect? You, a mere Golden Immortal, dare to take me as your disciple? Your skin is far too thick!"

No one expected that the child who had just made his move could not only speak human language, but also utter such arrogant words.

Li Jing was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Senior Taiyi, please don't be offended. The child was just born and doesn't understand anything, which is why he spoke so recklessly!"

Taiyi Zhenren was also stunned for a moment before saying, "It's alright! It's alright! It's understandable for children to be a little mischievous."

"Hahaha! Others may not know who I am, but as one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, how could you not know my origins?"

"I am Lingzhuzi, a disciple of the Sage Nuwa. I came to the human race to undergo tribulation on the orders of the Sage Nuwa. How could a Golden Immortal like you accept me as a disciple?" Lingzhuzi said disdainfully.

This time, Master Taiyi was completely stunned. He never expected that the Spirit Pearl in front of him had just been born and had already awakened his past life memories.

As one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, Yuanshi Tianzun specifically instructed that Taiyi Zhenren was naturally very clear about the origin of the Spirit Pearl.

Even if one is a disciple of the sage Nuwa, after reincarnation, one cannot awaken memories of one's past life unless one's cultivation reaches a certain level.

That's why the Chan Sect wanted to act first and ask for permission later. By the time Lingzhuzi became Taiyi Zhenren's disciple, everything was already set in stone, and even the Sage Nuwa could do nothing about it.

Who would have thought that Lingzhuzi would awaken his past life memories as soon as he was born? How can the drama of Taiyi Zhenren taking on disciples be staged in this way?

Lingzhuzi was, after all, a servant of the Sage Nuwa, and his status could even be said to be comparable to that of the Immortal Taiyi.

Given that Lingzhuzi's memories of his past life have been awakened, it would be somewhat unreasonable for Taiyi Zhenren to want to take him as a disciple again.

Having spent many years navigating the mortal world, Li Jing was a shrewd man, and he understood the truth of the matter from Taiyi Zhenren's expression at this moment.

Li Jing was both surprised and delighted. He never expected that his third son had such an extraordinary background, being a disciple of the sage Nuwa.

Taiyi Zhenren's expression was gloomy. He gave Lingzhuzi a deep look, said nothing more, and turned to leave Chentang Pass.

Lingzhuzi is not only one of the main characters of the Investiture of the Gods, but also a disciple of the saint Nuwa, making his status and position extremely extraordinary.

Regardless of the reason, Master Taiyi cannot harm Lingzhuzi and force him to become his disciple.

Left with no other choice, he could only return to Chaoge City to discuss the matter with Yun Zhongzi and see if there were any other solutions.

After Taiyi Zhenren left, Li Jing, overjoyed, pondered for a long time before finally naming his newborn third son Nezha.

Lingzhuzi naturally had little objection to this, as he was currently immersed in excitement. Besides, having been reincarnated as a human, it was only natural for him to take a human name.

When Jiang Heng first met Ling Zhuzi, Ling Zhuzi showed great interest in matters concerning the human race.

Unfortunately, Lingzhu was a pageboy under the sage Nuwa, and had to serve Nuwa at all times, so it was impossible for him to play with the human race.

Now, with Jiang Heng's help, Ling Zhuzi has finally been reincarnated into the human race, and she can't wait to have some fun among them.

However, before that, Lingzhuzi—no, now it should be Nezha—wanted to see what gift his senior brother Jiang Heng had prepared for him.

"As expected, Senior Brother Jiang Heng gave me some benefits, allowing me to awaken all my memories from my past life as soon as I was born."

Hmph! Otherwise, if I were to be accepted as a disciple by that Taiyi Zhenren, wouldn't that be a disgrace to the Sage? I might even be punished by the Sage!

"Hmm? Senior Brother Jiang Heng also gave me a cultivation technique of the human race? The Beginningless Scripture? What kind of technique is this?" Nezha muttered to himself.

When Nezha was reincarnated into the human race, Jiang Heng once condensed a golden light and injected it into the body of the spirit pearl, saying that it was a gift for Nezha.

At the time, Nezha asked him questions for a long time out of curiosity, but Jiang Heng only said that Nezha would know when he became a human.

At this moment, Nezha realized that among the gifts Jiang Heng gave him was a method that would allow him to awaken his memories of his past life ahead of time.

In addition, Jiang Heng prepared two other gifts for Nezha, one of which was the "Beginningless Sutra" that Nezha had just mentioned.

The value of the "Beginningless Sutra" is self-evident; among the many imperial scriptures in the world of "Covering the Sky," the "Beginningless Sutra" is definitely among the top.

However, to cultivate the "Beginningless Scripture," one must possess a special physique, such as an innate Dao body or sacred embryo, in order to be able to cultivate it.

This was the third gift Jiang Heng gave to Nezha, allowing him to be reincarnated as a human and possess the innate Daoist holy embryo.

This is also because during his transformation into Xuanyuan, Jiang Heng used the physical body of a chaotic god and demon to comprehend the profound mysteries of life.

At that time, Jiang Heng was already able to condense the Chaos Body, so it was not difficult for Nezha to possess the innate Dao Body Holy Embryo.

As long as Nezha cultivates diligently, with his innate Dao body and the "Beginningless Scripture," it will not be difficult for him to reach the Quasi-Saint realm in the future.

In this way, not only could Nezha be spared a tragic childhood, but he was also given a future full of possibilities.

It is no exaggeration to say that the gift Jiang Heng gave to Nezha was of immeasurable value.

Nezha begins a new life among the human race. How far he will go in the future is another matter.

Meanwhile, Yun Zhongzi, who was in Chaoge City, could no longer contain himself and came to pay his respects to Jiang Heng once again.
