Primordial Era: I am a gourd vine, starting with seven gourds combined into one.

However, even without the Witch Clan or the Demon Clan, all sorts of stories still unfolded in the prehistoric world.

Each of these powerful beings had their own unique experiences in the primordial world.

For example, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were recruited by Hongyun, who is now the supreme ruler of the Three Realms, shortly after they returned to the prehistoric world. Five of them were appointed as the Five Heavenly Emperors.

The Five Heavenly Emperors were only one level below Hongyun himself, just like the original Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan, which had Emperor Jun, Donghuang Taiyi, Xihuang Fuxi, and Nuwa.

Jumang, the Wood Ancestral Witch among the Twelve Ancestral Witches of the Red Clouds, was appointed as the Eastern Heavenly Emperor, also known as the Green Emperor, and ordered to guard the primordial eastern land.

Zhu Rong, the ancestor of fire, was the Southern Heavenly Emperor, also known as the Flame Emperor, and was ordered to guard the southern land of the primordial wilderness.

Wu Ru Shou, the ancestor of Feng Jin, was appointed as the Western Heavenly Emperor, also known as the White Emperor, and ordered to guard the western land of the primordial wilderness.

Gonggong, the ancestral witch who sealed the waters, was the Northern Heavenly Emperor, also known as the Black Emperor, and was tasked with guarding the northern lands of the primordial wilderness.

And Hou Tu, the ancestor of the land, was the Central Heavenly Emperor, also known as the Yellow Emperor, who was ordered to guard the central land of the primordial wilderness.

The primordial land was divided into five parts, and these five ancestral witches replaced Hongyun in governing them.

This immediately brought order to the vast and desolate land.

Although some people were not convinced, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, after being transformed by the two Great Ancestors Lin Yang and Yang Mei, had their primordial spirits reborn. At this time, they were few and far between in the prehistoric world.

Moreover, what was even more unexpected was that not long after, Hongyun also developed feelings for the Earth Ancestor Witch Houtu, and the two became Daoist partners.

Houtu resigned from her position as the Central Heavenly Emperor, and Zhen Yuanzi took over the post.

As for Houtu, she naturally became the empress.

This change was something even Lin Yang hadn't expected. On their wedding day, Lin Yang and Yang Mei showed their respect by personally attending.

"As it turns out, even without Hongjun and the so-called fixed order, it is not impossible in the primordial world."

Inside the Purple Cloud Palace, Lin Yang's eyes flashed as he took in the entire primordial world, all living beings, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

……

The third sermon at Zixiao Palace arrived as scheduled, and many powerful figures rushed to the palace and took their seats according to their respective ranks.

Lin Yang and Yang Mei's figures also appeared on the platform.

This time, Lin Yang spoke of the Way of the Sage, which was more than a hundred times more obscure than the Way of the Primordial Golden Immortal he spoke of last time.

At this moment, everyone's aptitude was fully displayed. Those who could understand it naturally showed expressions of intoxication and fascination, while those who could not understand it suffered greatly.

Fortunately, even if they couldn't understand the Great Dao, the Zixiao Palace was still an unparalleled sacred place for cultivation. Breathing in the chaotic primordial energy there was far superior to their own arduous cultivation.

In this way, Lin Yang spoke for a full two thousand two hundred years, and then it was Yang Mei's turn to speak. Yang Mei spoke about the Dao of the Primordial Golden Immortal, which he only spoke about for eight hundred years, as a supplement to Lin Yang's Dao of the Sage.

This path of the Primordial Golden Immortal is essentially providing everyone with a second way to attain enlightenment.

However, whether it is the path of the sage or the path of the Primordial Golden Immortal, it is actually the same path, only with slight differences.

Eight hundred years later, Yang Mei stopped speaking. The crowd below the stage, some reluctant to part, others relieved, all woke up and looked towards the platform.

Lin Yang looked at everyone and said, "The three sermons are now complete. I will now merge with the Heavenly Dao. From now on, the Zixiao Palace will not be open, and none of you may come here unless summoned by me."

"However, before you reach the Dao, if you have any questions, you can ask me, and I will answer them one by one."

Lin Yang's words immediately stirred everyone's hearts. Xuan Feng, the eldest disciple of the Daoist sect, was the first to stand up and ask Lin Yang, "Master, what does my path seek?"

"The Way is within yourself. Ask your own heart what the Way is in your heart, and that is the Way you seek," Lin Yang replied.

Xuanfeng was greatly shocked upon hearing this, and sat back down in his original position to ponder.

Then, Zhen Yuanzi stood up and asked Lin Yang, "Teacher, what is the difference between becoming a Saint and becoming a Primordial Golden Immortal?"

"They are all seeking the Way."

Lin Yang replied, "Those who become saints comprehend the Heavenly Dao, and those who attain the Primordial Chaos Realm comprehend the Great Dao. But the Heavenly Dao is also the Great Dao, and the two are actually no different."

"However, to become a saint, one must have the foundation of primordial purple qi. Without primordial purple qi, one can only attain the state of Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal."

Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help but ask, "What is the Primordial Purple Qi?"

Lin Yang said, "In the current primordial world, there can be nine saints. Therefore, there are nine strands of Primordial Purple Qi. There was once a sage named Hongjun who obtained one strand of Primordial Purple Qi. However, he was killed by me, and that strand of Primordial Purple Qi was also obtained by me. I then gave that strand of Primordial Purple Qi to your master's wife, Wangshu."

"Another wisp of Primordial Purple Qi appeared when I attained enlightenment and was refined into a saint by me. Therefore, I still have seven wisps of Primordial Purple Qi here!"

With a thought, Lin Yang saw the Creation Jade Tablet appear behind his head, from which seven streams of Primordial Purple Qi descended. Lin Yang waved his sleeve, and the seven streams of Primordial Purple Qi floated above the heads of Zhen Yuanzi and the others sitting on the futons.

Lin Yang said, "You are fortunate to sit on the futon, which means you are destined to choose to become saints. If any of you wish to become saints, you can now take a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi. First come, first served, and it will stop when all are taken."

As soon as Lin Yang said this, the crowd below the stage was in an uproar. Those powerful figures who were unable to sit on the prayer mats were extremely unwilling and were about to protest noisily.

However, they were all suppressed by the terrifying saintly aura emanating from Lin Yang.

In an instant, the Purple Cloud Palace fell completely silent again.

But the people sitting on the prayer mats became somewhat hesitant at this moment.

After a while, Zu Long was the first to stand up, took a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi, and bowed to Lin Yang, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Dao Ancestor."

Lin Yang nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist Zulong can become a saint!" With a flick of his finger, the primordial purple energy flew into Zulong's sea of ​​consciousness.

After a while, Xuanfeng first hesitated, then calmed down and remained motionless, as if he hadn't seen the wisps of primordial purple energy above his head.

Clearly, Xuanfeng has no intention of becoming a saint.

Zhen Yuanzi took a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi, Hongyun took a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi, Kunpeng took a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi, and Nuwa also took a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi.

Soon, only two strands of the Primordial Purple Qi remained.

The three Qings, who had been struggling with their emotions, exchanged a glance upon seeing this and then laughed.

They did not seek the Primordial Purple Qi, thus giving up their chance to become saints.

Yuan Feng was also somewhat tempted and was about to take a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi when Wang Shu stopped her and said, "If you want to become a saint, sister, I will give you this one."

As she spoke, Wang Shu took out her own Primordial Purple Qi and gave it to Yuan Feng.

Seeing this, Yuanfeng hesitated again and asked, "Sister, won't you become a saint?"

Wang Shu shook her head.

"Whether I become a saint or not, it makes no difference to me," Wang Shu said.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Feng thought for a moment, then suddenly calmed down and said, "Then I won't become a saint."

Wang Shu paused for a moment, then nodded. Instead of retracting the Primordial Purple Qi, she released it into the air.

In mid-air, however, it transformed into three streams of unclaimed primordial purple energy, signifying the existence of three remaining holy positions.

But the rest, whether it was Xuanfeng, the Three Pure Ones, Styx, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, or even Lianyin and Zhunti, all seemed indifferent.

No one bothered to take the last three strands of Primordial Purple Qi.
