Primordial Chaos: I, the Four Pure Ones of the Primordial Beginning, beg the Heavenly Dao to step do

Chapter 55 The Incomplete Path to Quasi-Sainthood! Conferring Titles upon Male and Female Immortal Leaders! (3000-word Chapter)

After watching the two little ones disappear into the horizon, Tai Chu and his group of five embarked on their journey to Zixiao Palace.

Because their cultivation and physical bodies are now vastly different from what they used to be.

Even with the Queen Mother of the West as a pendant, it only took four hundred years for her to arrive in the void outside the Zixiao Palace.

The sermon started very early.

Di Jun, Minghe, Kunpeng, and others were afraid that the Four Pure Ones would hold a grudge against them for what happened last time, and that they would lose everything.

They had already entered the Zixiao Palace, hoping that with the help of Hongjun's power, they could make Taichu and the others behave themselves.

Therefore, those still waiting outside at this time were only the twelve ancestral witches who were on good terms with the four from the beginning, the Xihe sisters, and Nuwa and her brother.

"I have met my four elder brothers."

"Greetings to Fellow Daoist Taichu, Fellow Daoist Taishang, Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, and Fellow Daoist Tongtian."

"It has been a thousand years since we last parted. How have you all been?"

Tai Chu smiled faintly and nodded slightly, then inquired about the recent situation of the Twelve Ancestral Witches and others.

"Thanks to Brother Taichu, our cultivation has now been completely stabilized, and we have entered the early stage of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm. We will soon be able to enter the middle stage."

"The construction of the Wu Clan and the Pangu Royal Court has also begun gradually. If you have time on any day, you four brothers are welcome to come and inspect it."

"If there are any shortcomings, please feel free to speak your mind, and we will definitely make immediate corrections."

As soon as Dijiang finished speaking, Changxi couldn't wait to respond.

"Brother Taichu, after I went back this time, I not only broke through to the Great Luo Perfection stage."

"Even the gourd you gave me was conceived and completed with the blessing of the laurel tree's primordial elixir!"

As he spoke, Changxi handed the gourd that had been fully formed to Taichu and looked at him expectantly.

"I really need to take a look at that."

Taichu truly hadn't expected this.

Even after separating from the innate gourd vine, the magic gourd was still able to be fully conceived.

He immediately took the gourd and examined it.

You wouldn't believe it until you see it, and what you find is astonishing.

The instant he enveloped the gourd with his divine sense, he learned of its divine power.

The magic gourd contains a fragment of the universe and the laws of creation.

It can collect all the magical treasures in the world, nurture their power, repair their defects, and improve their quality to a higher level!

However, due to the severe incompleteness of its internal laws, it is difficult to nurture, repair, or improve its quality.

Depending on the grade of the magical artifact, only one to five items can be obtained each time.

Furthermore, the higher the grade, the slower the effect of quality improvement.

If top-grade innate spiritual treasures such as the World-Destroying Black Lotus and the Five-Colored Five-Directional Flag were placed inside, the time required to improve their quality would probably be measured in eons.

However, this treasure, even though they were already able to wholesale top-grade innate spiritual treasures, was completely tasteless to them, yet too precious to discard.

But for Chang Xi, it was completely different.

"This magical artifact is indeed powerful, but it is ultimately quite incomplete."

"My second brother happens to be an expert in weapon crafting, so let him help you modify it and see if he can shorten the time it takes to nurture a treasure."

As he spoke, Taichu handed the magic gourd to Yuanshi.

"This gourd is quite interesting."

Yuanshi held the treasure gourd in his hand, enveloped it with his divine sense for several breaths, and a thoughtful look gradually appeared in his eyes.

"There shouldn't be any problem."

"I'll help you remodel it when I have time."

"Whether it achieves a great effect or not, it will at least be several times better than the current situation."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Second Brother."

Upon hearing this, Chang Xi's eyes lit up slightly, and he quickly bowed to Yuan Shi in gratitude.

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, Fellow Daoist Fuxi, how have you been?"

Just as Tai Chu finished speaking, a loud shout suddenly reached everyone's ears, interrupting their pleasantries.

"All three thousand worldly travelers have arrived!"

"The sermon is about to begin. Please return to your seats and refrain from further noise."

Seeing that Hongjun's attendant had issued the final ultimatum, Taichu and the others stopped chatting and entered Zixiao Palace.

"Fellow Daoist west Wangmu, you were delayed by those two little fellows during your first sermon."

"This time, sit behind us."

As he spoke, Tai Chu's gaze swept over the Eastern King and the others who were near the front row of prayer mats, and he gave them a briefing in a low voice.

"Please squeeze back a bit to make room for this fellow Daoist."

I thought that with Hongjun present, Taichu's attitude would at least be slightly more restrained.

Unexpectedly, the other party remained just as arrogant and domineering.

Seeing that no one dared to say anything, Hongjun did not speak up to stop them.

The Dongwanggong and his group, who were already intimidated by the Four Pure Ones, could only obediently squeeze back.

They managed to make room for a spacious area.

As everyone took their seats, Tai Chu suddenly realized that the seats for Shi Chen and Qian Kun were empty!

"What's going on?"

"Could it be that because of the last battle, which shattered the balance of time and space, you no longer want to associate with Hongjun?"

"And this led to a complete falling out between the three of them?"

"Given their current situation, the only way for them to attain sainthood is to rely on Hongjun."

"If we don't choose to cooperate, all our previous efforts will be in vain."

"Would either of them truly be content to forever remain stuck between the Primordial Golden Immortal realm and the Primordial Grand Luo realm?"

Looking at the two empty seats, Tai Chu's mind raced as he considered the various possibilities.

Although Hongjun and the others had completely broken off relations, it was undoubtedly a happy thing for him.

But if the two are assigned to plot other schemes, they need to be more careful.

"Everyone has arrived, so we won't wait any longer."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Hongjun glanced at Taichu and the others discreetly, then calmly announced to the crowd that the sermon was about to begin.

"What I am teaching today is the path of a quasi-sage."

"I hope you can listen attentively."

"The three corpses are divided into good, evil, and the true self..."

As the golden lotus of Daoist charm appeared and the laws of the Great Dao manifested, the vast majority of people in Zixiao Palace revealed an intoxicated and yearning attitude of enlightenment.

Since the Twelve Ancestral Witches lacked primordial spirits, they were completely unable to comprehend what Hongjun was talking about.

They then began to cultivate the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique.

It's true that preaching is useless to them.

However, this does not mean that they cannot enjoy the rich spiritual energy environment and the clearly visible laws of the Great Dao.

Fuxi and his sister, Xihe and her sister, and the Queen Mother of the West were unaware of the true nature of the quasi-sage path.

Like most people, he listened very attentively to the sermon, afraid of missing even the slightest detail, lest he be forever stuck at the level of a Great Immortal.

Before Hongjun could speak, the four of them had already wandered off into the heavens in their own minds.

They might comprehend their own Dao, concentrate on refining artifacts within the world in their palms, or deduce the Dao of formations.

They didn't seem to hear it at all.

"That's absolutely shameless."

"No wonder that in the original trajectory, apart from the six Supreme Beings who obtained the Primordial Purple Qi, the rest could only stop at the Quasi-Saint Perfection stage."

"So you never actually revealed the crucial key to the Quasi-Saint Path!"

As Tai Chu listened to Hong Jun's boastful talk, his eyes were filled with mockery and disdain.

In fact, it is not impossible to become a saint by following the path of a quasi-saint and cultivating step by step.

The problem is that Hongjun didn't say it.

To achieve sainthood through the path of quasi-sainthood, one must gradually eliminate the three corpses using three innate treasures that share the same origin, source, and laws.

This is the correct path of spiritual practice.

If the magic weapon used does not meet the requirements, then one will be restricted to the Quasi-Saint Perfection stage and will never be able to take another step forward.

As for the Primordial Purple Qi bestowed upon them, to put it bluntly, it was a back door opened by the Heavenly Dao for the Supreme Beings and others.

This allows them to achieve the position of Heavenly Saint through merit even if the magical artifacts they use are substandard.

"Not only did they control the number and selection of sages, eliminate the residual influence of Pangu, and cut off the hope of the rise of humanity, but they also wove a colossal lie for all living beings in the prehistoric world."

"Let the remaining three thousand worldly beings believe until their deaths that it was because they did not work hard enough, rather than that there was a problem with their path of cultivation."

"As expected of the number one cunning saint in the primordial world, when it comes to scheming and plotting, no one can match him."

Immediately, Tai Chu stopped listening to Hong Jun's nonsense, closed his eyes slightly, and began to comprehend his own Great Dao.

The whole thing is nonsense; there's hardly anything useful in it. It might fool Di Jun and the others, but if you think you can fool them, you're dreaming!

Instead of wasting time listening to his nonsense, he should hurry up and thoroughly condense the divine runes of the Great Dao of Power; that would be much more useful.

……

Three thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The second sermon was also drawing to a close.

Hongjun gazed at Siqing, who remained lost in thought and not listening to his charade, and his killing intent grew stronger, but he did not show it in the slightest.

After all, in his eyes, Tai Chu and the others were already four dead pieces, waiting for the right time to be crushed into dust and completely disappear into the primordial world!

"Do you have any questions now that this sermon is over?"

Although Hongjun was deceiving people, the lies he wove were so flawless that they were practically telling everyone present the basic principles of the Quasi-Saint Path in plain language.

So no one stepped forward to ask a question.

"Now that the Heavenly Dao is incomplete and the calamity has risen again, I intend to seek two primordial deities to manage the primordial world and lead all living beings to eliminate the calamity."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was filled with respect and looked at Hongjun with anticipation, hoping to hear their names called.

"Dongwanggong, you were formed from the first wisp of pure yang energy after the creation of the world. I bestow upon you the supreme innate spiritual treasure, the Dragon Head Cudgel, to manage the male immortals of the primordial world."

"Queen Mother of the West, you were formed from the first wisp of pure Yin energy after the creation of the world. I bestow upon you the supreme innate spiritual treasure, the Plain-Colored Banner of the Western Cloud Realm, to govern the female immortals of the primordial world."

As soon as he finished speaking, not only did everyone around him look astonished and shocked, but even the three Supreme Elders frowned slightly, revealing a hint of coldness!
