Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I created three thousand demon realms.

Chapter 46 Billions of Years

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me." Yang Mei smiled as he sat cross-legged in the chaos.

Yuan Meng didn't stand on ceremony and sat opposite Yang Mei, beginning their discussion.

They each expound their own doctrines and methods.

Endless divine light appeared in the chaos, ancient scriptures were imprinted in the chaos, and then disappeared.

These scriptures are all the supreme Tao and the supreme Dharma.

The Great Dao expounded by the two Primordial Beings.

It belongs to the highest scriptures.

Time passes slowly.

Ten thousand years have passed.

Yuanmeng returned to the primordial wilderness.

Yang Mei, on the other hand, carved out his temporary dwelling in the chaos.

As for Yang Mei, Yuan Meng had nothing to say. Yang Mei's personality determined that he was destined to be a solitary figure accompanying the Great Dao.

This may also be one of the reasons why Yangmei fled to the Chaos after Hongjun became a saint.

I don't want to compete with those sages from the prehistoric era.

The only difference is that we are on different levels.

After Yuan Meng returned to the prehistoric world, he did not return to Chaos Island.

Instead, they arrived at the immortal volcano in the south.

The Southern Undying Mountain is no longer like it used to be, where the constant eruptions of the Undying Volcano meant that only a few creatures could survive in the entire southern prehistoric world.

Other living beings simply cannot survive here.

Yuan Meng arrived at the ancestral land of the Phoenix Clan.

Countless phoenixes perch on the innate spiritual root of the parasol tree.

There is a vast world here, created by Yuan Huang.

Yuan Meng walked straight in without causing the slightest disturbance.

After all, once you reach the Yuanmeng realm, unless you want to, you generally won't attract the attention of others.

"You've arrived." Yuan Huang, dressed in a red imperial robe, sat cross-legged amidst the endless Southern Ming Flames, opened her eyes, and smiled on her exquisite face.

“Mm.” Yuan Meng smiled and nodded, sitting down next to Yuan Huang.

"You've broken through." Yuan Huang looked at Yuan Meng with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"We've broken through, after a million years, and it's only recently stabilized," Yuan Meng said with a smile.

“No, I can’t fall behind either.” Yuan Huang looked at Yuan Meng with a determined look in her eyes.

Yuan Meng smiled. That's just how Yuan Huang is. Even though they are already a couple, Yuan Huang's personality hasn't changed at all.

Unwilling to be subservient to others.

However, this is normal. In addition to her own fire law, Yuan Huang also follows the imperial law, making her arguably the first female emperor in the world.

His status is so high that he is no less powerful than any other great supernatural being in the primordial world.

“I’ll take you somewhere first,” Yuan Meng said to Yuan Huang.

"Where is this?" Yuan Huang asked Yuan Meng curiously.

Subsequently, Yuan Meng appeared on Chaos Island with Yuan Huang.

“This is my dojo, and it will also be your dojo in the future,” Yuan Meng said slowly.

Yuan Huang's eyes gleamed with wonder; she never imagined that such a place existed in the primordial world.

for the rest of the time.

Yuan Meng and Yuan Huang cultivated the Yin-Yang Dao on Chaos Island for 30,000 years.

Yuan Huang reluctantly left Chaos Island and returned to the Southern Undying Volcano.

It wasn't Yuan Meng who called for it, but Yuan Huang herself who wanted to leave.

In Yuan Huang's view, she and Yuan Meng would not have any children before she became a saint.

After all, Yuan Meng's bloodline has now surpassed hers, making it impossible for him to have offspring. Even if he did, it would harm Yuan Huang's essence.

This is something Yuan Meng doesn't want to see.

Yuan Huang, now a sub-sage, exists in an era where sages are absent.

They are among the strongest people in the world.

If the issue of offspring prevents Yuanhuang from breaking through, that would be a truly great regret.

If we wait until Yuanhuang breaks through to the Hunyuan realm before having offspring, not only will they have greater potential, but their very essence will not be harmed.

There will be plenty of time later.

Right now, Yuan Meng isn't in a hurry, and neither is Yuan Huang.

Yuan Meng looked towards the primordial world.

Endless years flow by in my eyes.

"Hundreds of millions of years from now?" Yuan Meng murmured.

Hongjun's attainment of enlightenment occurred hundreds of millions of years later, so calculating such a thing was not difficult for Yuanmeng.

However, this period will only last for hundreds of millions of years.

However, that's not entirely true. After Hongjun merged with the Dao, it was still in the later stages of the Lich War, and he only merged with the Dao after the Six Sages were born.

And there are endless years to come.

Once Hongjun merges with the Dao, the path to the Great Dao for all living beings in the primordial world will be completely severed, leaving only the path of the Heavenly Dao.

To cultivate the Great Dao, one must leave the Primordial World; otherwise, it is impossible.

However, after Hongjun preached the Dao.

Once a being embarks on the path of Taoism passed down by Hongjun, their journey to the Great Tao is severed.

The Dao passed down by Hongjun is, simply put, the Dao of Heaven.

Yuan Meng, Yuan Huang, Zu Long, and others followed the Great Dao.

If you follow the Heavenly Way, you will be under its jurisdiction forever.

Without the Primordial Purple Qi, there is never a chance to become a Primordial Being.

Similarly, the peak of Quasi-Saint is the limit for all beings in the primordial world. As for Sub-Saint?
That's a special realm that can only be attained by following the Great Way.

Without the Primordial Purple Qi, following the Heavenly Path, the limit is the peak of Quasi-Saint. No matter how talented or extraordinary you are, the peak of Quasi-Saint is your limit.

Take Kong Xuan, for example, who is said to be the number one person below the sage. To put it bluntly, he has unparalleled talent, but in the end, he is only at the peak of the quasi-sage.

However, this is the inevitable trend of Heaven.

The price Hongjun paid for establishing the Xuanmen was not small; he sacrificed himself to complete the Heavenly Dao and merge with it.

What does it mean to sacrifice oneself to uphold the Way of Heaven?

It means that he himself merges with the Heavenly Dao, and from then on, Hongjun is no longer the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao is no longer Hongjun!
Why is there such a saying? Simply put...

Hongjun is the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao, but Hongjun is not the Heavenly Dao.

Far away.

Yuan Meng's thoughts returned to the present.

The severing of the Great Dao is inevitable, and the Primordial World will certainly be controlled by the Heavenly Dao. This is not because the Heavenly Dao has its own consciousness.

It is an inevitable trend.

The Heavenly Dao is the collective will of all living beings in the primordial world.

Without the primordial creatures, the Heavenly Dao could not have been born.

“For the ferocious beast race, there is no need to walk the path of the Heavenly Dao,” Yuan Meng murmured.

In the short term, beings that follow the Heavenly Path will definitely progress faster than beings that follow the Great Path, but in the long run, beings that follow the Great Path have greater potential.

In reality, they are quite similar. The only difference is that for beings who reach the pinnacle, following the Great Dao is definitely better than following the Heavenly Dao.

But how many people in this world can actually reach the top?

It cannot be said that the Heavenly Dao can only reach the peak of Quasi-Saint, and that without the Primordial Purple Qi, this is the limit of following the Heavenly Dao, and therefore one would think that following the Heavenly Dao is bad.

They're actually pretty much the same.

We only see that the road can take us further, but there is a question: how many people can actually get there?
Since the beginning of the world, the ferocious beast race has produced many quasi-saints, but only twelve above the level of sub-saint!

Yuan Meng, the Ten Kings, and as for Shen Ni, he will definitely reach the level of a Quasi-Saint, but he has not yet returned.

The Ten Kings also broke through to the Quasi-Saint realm when Yuan Meng broke through to the Hunyuan realm.

Of the countless ferocious beasts, only twelve beings were able to reach the level of Quasi-Saint.

Therefore, for ordinary beings, the Heavenly Way and the Great Way are about the same, or even better, since the Heavenly Way is not easy to follow. It requires countless hours of accumulation and the tempering of time.

Therefore, in Yuan Meng's view, ordinary beings, the Heavenly Dao, and the Great Dao are all the same.

Only those with exceptional talent and innate abilities have the advantage of having the right background.

As for ordinary living beings, Emmmmm... just make do with cultivation and don't think too much about other things.
