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

Chapter 66 Zhen Yuanzi's Visit!

The Western Sect has temporarily ceased its activities. Before a foolproof plan is devised, the disciples of the Western Sect, led by Ksitigarbha, should not act rashly.

Jiang Heng could not remain in the cycle of reincarnation forever. After arranging some matters, Jiang Heng temporarily returned to the human race.

After Grand Master Xuandu finished preaching to the human race, the entire human race fell silent once again, quietly accumulating strength.

The overall strength of the human race is constantly improving, especially the four armies of Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain, whose strength is growing the most rapidly.

The Fengbo Army developed extremely rapidly, its intelligence system became more sophisticated, and it began to gradually spread throughout the entire prehistoric world.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as there is any disturbance in the primordial world, the Fengbo Army can immediately relay the news back to the human race.

Over the course of more than a thousand years, the strength of the Changlin Army has grown extremely rapidly, expanding from an initial size of 100,000 to a million.

It's not just the increase in quantity; the Changlin Army has also made significant progress in quality, with quite a few Golden Immortals among its ranks.

The Crimson Flame Army remained an elite force, and its numbers did not change much, only increasing from five thousand to ten thousand.

However, all ten thousand of them were Golden Immortals. Combined with the Heavenly Court's military formation, the power they unleashed was naturally extraordinary.

Unfortunately, despite Jiang Heng's tireless efforts in nurturing them, the human race has produced some Great Luo Golden Immortals, but their numbers are extremely small.

These are all true geniuses of the human race. They did not join the four armies of Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain, but instead hid deep within the human race to cultivate.

These are the core strengths of humanity, and they won't act lightly. But when humanity truly faces a crisis of extinction, these individuals will become the key to turning the tide.

In the previous battles, the Kaoshan Army had little room to maneuver due to its weak strength, which made the Ziyi Clan resentful.

Over the course of more than a thousand years, the Ziyi clan vigorously reorganized the Kaoshan Army, which led to a significant increase in the strength of the Kaoshan Army.

Although the Mountain Guards are responsible for protecting the human race and may not seem to have many opportunities to show their abilities, their duties are extremely important.

As the human race continued to grow and expand, internal divisions also increased, and various crimes even occurred within the race.

This is unavoidable. Although we are all human, our hearts are different, and Jiang Heng cannot expect all humans to strive for progress.

At this point, it is necessary to use reasonable and complete laws to restrain all humankind, so that humankind does not go astray.

At this time, the role of the Mountain Guard becomes apparent. They are not only responsible for protecting the human race, but also for supervising all human races.

If any wrongdoing occurs, the Mountain Guard must deal with it immediately to ensure that no wrongful convictions or miscarriages of justice occur among the human race.

Now, with Jiang Heng's help, Suirenshi and Youchaoshi have broken through to the Quasi-Saint realm, giving the human race a certain confidence in the realm of the strong.

Unfortunately, Jiang Heng didn't have much luck value left. Otherwise, if he could exchange it for some more treasures, he could have helped Cangwen and Ziyi break through to the Quasi-Saint realm.

At that time, with the addition of Jiang Heng, the human race will have five quasi-saint level powerhouses, a strength that will be respectable in the prehistoric world.

Overall, the human race is still on a path of vigorous and positive development, so Jiang Heng naturally has nothing to complain about.

Jiang Heng doesn't need to worry about the Western Sect disciples being watched by the Witch Clan; he can focus on his cultivation among the humans for the time being.

Now, Jiang Heng's accumulation is almost complete, and his own unique path to ultimate strength has matured, ready to be taken at any time.

But for Jiang Heng, entering the realm of the Great Emperor was just the beginning; his goal was never merely to become a Great Emperor.

Even if one becomes an emperor, what good will it do? Let alone whether one can stand out among all quasi-saints, when facing a saint, one is still just an ant.

The path that Emperor Ye Tian had taken provided Jiang Heng with the best reference; it would be a path to heaven, so Jiang Heng naturally wouldn't choose the more distant route.

After ten years of silent cultivation among the human race, the disciples of the Western Sect remained silent, but Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of earth immortals, came to visit first.

"I apologize for my intrusion and any disturbance you may cause!" Zhen Yuanzi said very politely after they met.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. The human race welcomes your visit at any time! I just don't know what brings you here today?" Jiang Heng asked.

"More than a thousand years have passed since Brother Hongyun was reincarnated, but there has been no news of him since, and I have always been worried about him."

"I've come here shamelessly this time hoping that you, fellow Daoist, can lend a hand and see how Brother Hongyun's reincarnation is doing!" Zhen Yuanzi said.

Jiang Heng smiled without saying a word. He guessed that Zhen Yuanzi's personal visit to the human race was most likely for the reincarnated Hongyun Ancestor.

Now, during the great calamity of the Lich King, not only is the world filled with malevolent energy, but even the secrets of heaven are in utter chaos.

Although Zhen Yuanzi possessed profound cultivation, in the current prehistoric world, where any method of calculation was useless, he could only lament in vain.

After much deliberation, Zhen Yuanzi still couldn't let go of his good friend, the Old Ancestor Hongyun, which is why he came to seek Jiang Heng's help.

It's not that Jiang Heng's cultivation is actually stronger than Zhen Yuanzi's, that he was able to deduce the reincarnation of the Old Ancestor Hongyun during the Lich War.

Zhen Yuanzi understood that Jiang Heng had a close relationship with the Wu Clan, and that the current Six Paths of Reincarnation was actually controlled by the Wu Clan.

Given Jiang Heng's relationship with the Witch Clan, finding out about the reincarnation of the Red Cloud Ancestor in the Underworld would be an easy task.

"This matter is naturally not difficult, fellow Daoist, there is no need to worry too much. As far as I know, fellow Daoist Hongyun's reincarnation is in very good condition!" Jiang Heng said with a smile.

After the reincarnation of the Hongyun Ancestor, he transformed into the renowned Fortune Golden Immortal Yun Zhongzi. He will be free from disasters and difficulties in the future, and roam freely between heaven and earth. How could that not be good?

"Oh? I was overthinking it. Fellow Daoist, could you tell me who Brother Hongyun's reincarnation is?" Zhen Yuanzi asked.

"It's alright to talk about this. How about this, since I'm free for the time being, why don't I go with you, fellow Daoist!"

Jiang Heng's heart stirred slightly. When the topic of the reincarnation of the Red Cloud Ancestor came up, he couldn't help but have some thoughts. So he said this to Zhen Yuanzi.

"In that case, I thank you in advance, fellow Daoist!" Zhen Yuanzi said with great gratitude.

So, Jiang Heng and Zhen Yuanzi left the human race together. On the way, Jiang Heng also told Zhen Yuanzi about the reincarnation of the Hongyun Ancestor.

Although the Old Ancestor Hongyun encountered misfortune for no reason, he was a person with great fortune, and his reincarnation was just a tribulation to be fulfilled.

In this life, the Old Ancestor Hongyun was reincarnated as Yun Zhongzi, and he also became a disciple of the Chan Sect, taking the Primordial Heavenly Venerable as his master.

However, to be honest, both Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun Laozu had listened to the Dao at Zixiao Palace with the Three Pure Ones, so they could be considered equals.

Now that Hongyun Laozu has become a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, he has inexplicably become a generation below Zhen Yuanzi, which is quite funny.

However, seniority is just seniority. In the current primordial world, every living being knows that the sage is the supreme being.

To become a disciple of a sage is an unparalleled opportunity that countless beings would rather die than obtain.

After all, might makes right at any time, and in the primordial world, the fist of a sage is the greatest.

Jiang Heng and Zhen Yuanzi headed towards Zhongnan Mountain. Yun Zhongzi, the reincarnation of the Hongyun Ancestor, was cultivating in the Jade Pillar Cave of Zhongnan Mountain.

In previous years, Yuanshi Tianzun opened the door of convenience and set up an array on Kunlun Mountain. As long as one could pass through the array, one would have the opportunity to become a disciple of the Chan Sect.

However, Yuanshi Tianzun had a very high opinion of himself and believed that those who were born into noble families and whose origins were not good were simply not worthy of his attention.

After careful selection, the twelve renowned Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect were officially launched, thus establishing the foundation of the Chan Sect.

It was around that time that Yun Zhongzi was taken in as a disciple by Yuanshi Tianzun, but for some reason, he was not included among the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect.

Perhaps even the Primordial Celestial Venerable knew that it was a bit excessive to place the reincarnation of the Red Cloud Ancestor on par with a group of juniors.

It was around this time that the Three Pure Ones began to show signs of gradually separating.

Among the Three Pure Ones, the Supreme Pure One is practically all alone, sitting high above the Thirty-Three Heavens, with only the Grand Master Xuandu as his disciple.

With the tranquil and inactive mindset of the Sage Taiqing, he basically paid little attention to the disturbances of the outside world, and even his two brothers among the Three Pure Ones did not pay much attention to them.

Yuanshi Tianzun resides in the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain, always considering himself the orthodox one of the Three Pure Ones, and the rules of the Chan Sect are quite strict.

Perhaps it was because he couldn't stand the overly dogmatic Yuanshi Tianzun that Tongtian Jiaozhu went overseas and established the Biyou Palace.

The Tongtian Sect Leader was carefree and unconventional, and he readily opened the door of Biyou Palace to accept countless disciples into his fold.

This laid the foundation for the future arrival of all the immortals of the Jie Sect, but it also made Yuanshi Tianzun increasingly dislike his junior brother.

Yuanshi Tianzun valued his disciples' lineage and adherence to rules most highly, but the Jie Sect consisted mostly of people with scales and armor, and had no constraints on hierarchy or status, so they were naturally disliked by Yuanshi Tianzun.

The Investiture of the Gods also set the tone at this moment. Before the great calamity of the Lich King had fully erupted, the next great calamity was already secretly accumulating.

Due to personality clashes, the Three Pure Ones eventually drifted apart. Therefore, in Jiang Heng's view, even sages are not truly without desires.

Saints possess all the emotions that mortals have. This is also the strangest thing about Jiang Heng; it seems that severing the three corpses was a complete waste of time!

After some time, Jiang Heng and Zhen Yuanzi arrived at the Jade Pillar Cave in Zhongnan Mountain. With their cultivation levels, they naturally sensed Yun Zhongzi's presence very quickly.

"I apologize for disturbing you, fellow Daoist. I hope you will show yourself!" Zhen Yuanzi said loudly.

I recommend a friend's book, titled "Journey to the West: Please Answer - I Really Don't Want to Go on the Journey to the West," you can check it out if you're interested.
