The Primordial Era: The Mythical Path Beginning with the Jie Sect

Chapter 114 The Birth of Nezha
Li Jing was furious and turned to go out to get his weapon.

The bird ignored Li Jing and flew above the fleshy ball, spreading its wings. Extreme Yin and Yang energies surged from its wings and flowed into the fleshy ball.

The fleshy ball contains the vital energy transformed from the cultivation of the Spirit Pearl. If Li Jing were to split it open and it were to be born prematurely, it would lack potential.

Having his path cut off, coupled with Li Jing's subsequent manipulative actions, Nezha harbored deep hatred for him. Fortunately, Li Jing obtained the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, which was able to restrain Nezha.

However, this also limited Li Jing. As the saying goes, "He who has the tower is your father; if he doesn't have the tower, you can turn around and kill him!" "He who has the tower is your father; he who doesn't has your father is dead." "As long as the tower exists, he lives; if the tower dies, he dies."

The title "Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King" for Li Jing is both a description of his appearance and a mockery of him.

Of course, it's impossible for that to happen to Nezha now, since with the protection of the Ten Fierce Spiritual Treasures, basically no one in this prehistoric world can harm him.

When Yin Shiniang saw that her child was alright, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

When Li Jing returned with his weapons, ready to strike, a servant outside called out, "Master, there is a Taoist priest outside requesting an audience."

Li Jing immediately turned around and walked out. He had figured it out now. Ordinary soldiers were basically no match for this little bird. Luckily, a Taoist priest had come along. Let's see if this Taoist priest had any ideas.

When Li Jing arrived outside the mansion, he saw a Taoist priest with an otherworldly air, holding a whisk, standing outside the gate. "May I ask what brings you here, Taoist Master?"

The Taoist priest flicked his whisk and said calmly, "I am Taiyi Zhenren of Jinguang Cave on Qianyun Mountain, a disciple of the Jade Pure Primordial Wonderful Dao Emperor, and a member of the Chan Sect."

Upon hearing this, Li Jing immediately said, "So you are the Grand Master Taiyi of the Chan Sect. Please come in."

With that, Li Jing respectfully welcomed Taiyi Zhenren inside.

Instead of immediately leading Taiyi Zhenren to subdue the demon, he went to the reception hall.

Li Jing, as a cultivator, had heard of the renowned Chan Sect, so he wasn't worried at all about the demon escaping.

After having tea served, Li Jing asked, "What important matter brings you here, Master?"

Taiyi Zhenren smiled slightly and said, "This humble Taoist knew that the general would have a son today, so I came to offer my congratulations."

Li Jing's expression turned grim, and he said in a deep voice, "To be honest, Daoist Master, my son was killed by a demon. That demon is currently in my wife's room. I originally intended to kill him, but who knew that the demon had an accomplice."

It was a bird demon, its body indestructible, and ordinary soldiers could not harm it.

"It's just in time for the Taoist priest to arrive. I beg you to slay these two demons and avenge my son."

As he spoke, Li Jing knelt down and made his request.

Taiyi...

Wasn't it the birth of the Spirit Pearl? Where did this monster come from?

Taken away?

No way! Who would dare to do that?

Behind Lingzhuzi is the goddess Nuwa!

Taiyi Zhenren was completely bewildered, so he said, "General, take me to see this."

Li Jing was overjoyed and immediately got up, taking Taiyi Zhenren with him to his wife's room.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Yin Shiniang sitting on the edge of the bed, looking lovingly at a large ball of flesh and a little bird lying on it like an egg-incubating bird.

"Master, it's them!" Li Jing pointed excitedly at the ball of flesh and the little bird.

When Taiyi Zhenren saw this, his face immediately turned extremely dark.

This isn't some kind of monster! This is the Spirit Pearl absorbing the essence of its past life.

As for that little bird, bah! What little bird? That's a Kunpeng! One of the ten fierce spiritual treasures of Ziwei Star.

Kunpeng is using the power of extreme Yin and Yang to enhance this kid's foundation.

Taiyi was immediately envious. Putting aside the matter of strengthening one's foundation, who in the entire prehistoric world wouldn't want the Ten Fierce Spiritual Treasures?

Not only can one comprehend the divine powers and techniques contained within, but one will also possess top-tier combat strength, equivalent to having a protector by one's side at all times. Unfortunately, there are only ten of the Ten Fierce Spiritual Treasures, which are the most precious treasures of Ziwei Star.

I never expected that my chosen disciple would be rewarded with a sword. This must be because of the Goddess Nuwa. It seems I need to pay more attention to this disciple.

"General Li, your three sons are inside this ball."

However, your three sons have an unusual origin. In their previous life, they were the spirit pearls under the goddess Nuwa, which is why they have such an extraordinary phenomenon.

He is absorbing the primordial energy formed from his cultivation in his previous life. Once he has finished absorbing the primordial energy, he will reveal his form.

As for that little bird, it was also extraordinary. It was a supreme treasure crafted by His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, one of the Ten Fierce Spiritual Treasures, the Kunpeng.

Kunpeng is using the power of extreme Yin and Yang to enhance the spiritual pearl's foundation, so there's no need to worry.

"Wait a few days, and I estimate that the general's third son will truly be born." Taiyi Zhenren explained, completely ignoring Li Jing's suggestion to eliminate these two demons.

If Lingzhuzi really makes a move, he can be eliminated, but then he will face punishment from Goddess Nuwa.

As for the Kunpeng Spiritual Treasure?

Taiyi Zhenren says he hasn't lived enough yet!

"This, this...this is my son?" Li Jing stood there dumbfounded, unable to believe it.

Taiyi Zhenren stared at the large ball of flesh and nodded.

The sound of Yin Shiniang crying in distress came from the room.

……

朝歌
Ever since Di Xin returned from offering incense at Nuwa's palace, he had been tormented by Nuwa every day, and he visibly lost weight.

But to outsiders, it seemed to stem from Emperor Xin's longing for the goddess Nuwa. After all, during this period, Emperor Xin had not favored any of his concubines.

Di Xin was helpless! Nuwa followed him around every day, how could he find women? Was he supposed to show Nuwa a live broadcast? He didn't have that kind of fetish.

Although Emperor Xin had concubines, it is normal for a mortal to have needs, but he did not have any offspring.

Ultimately, it's a task; having children would be too much trouble.

Meanwhile, Emperor Xin's two treacherous ministers, Fei Zhong and You Hun, seeing that Emperor Xin was getting thinner and thinner, suggested holding a beauty contest.

This was exactly what Nuwa wanted; she was just looking for a reason to appear, so she got Di Xin to agree.

As a result, she received opposition from a group of ministers at the court meeting, which greatly angered Nuwa.

The matter was thus put on hold.

……

Chentang Pass

Three days later, the spirit pearl finally finished absorbing the vital energy, and the little bird above folded its wings and transformed into a small fish, swimming around the room.

Just then, the ball of flesh suddenly split open, and red light emanated from the crack. Then, two small hands appeared at the crack and ripped the ball apart. A naked doll wrapped in red silk walked out of the ball of flesh.

"Nezha, my son." Yin Shiniang immediately went over and hugged the little Nezha who was walking his bird.

The name Nezha was chosen in the last three days by Taiyi Zhenren, who also mentioned taking Nezha as his disciple, and Li Jing readily agreed.

However, when it came to taking Nezha back to the Golden Light Cave on Qianyun Mountain to learn martial arts, Yin Shiniang was somewhat reluctant, since the child was still too young after birth.

Taiyi agreed and prepared to teach Nezha at Chentang Pass.

After all, there's nothing to do back at Qianyuan Mountain now. It's all the same no matter where you are; it's all for the sake of the Great Tribulation and the Conferment of Gods.

And so Taiyi settled down in Chentang Pass, where he taught Nezha. Because he had no other thoughts, Nezha was not too unruly.
