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

Chapter 19 Cultivating the Tao and Cultivating Oneself: On Sages

Gui Ling, Wu Dang, and the others stared at Zhou Chen in disbelief. They hadn't expected Zhou Chen's cultivation technique to be so insane, and that he had actually succeeded in cultivating it.

"Senior sister, it's not as exaggerated as you say. I would never joke with my own life. You can tell from the fact that I obtained the Longevity Fruit."

As for the power of spacetime that you mentioned, it's not as terrifying as you imagine.

Whether it's the power of spacetime or magical power, it's all a form of energy. When your body and magical power are refined to their peak, external forces will no longer be able to harm you.

Zhou Chen explained casually, looking at the Huangzhong plums, and continued.

"But the essence of my cultivation is different from the mainstream cultivation methods in the prehistoric world."

In the primordial world, most cultivation methods, whether they are the righteous path of strength, the righteous path of the three corpses, or even the righteous path of merit, all cultivate the Great Dao.

My cultivation principle is to cultivate myself; my Great Dao is myself.

Before becoming a Golden Immortal, it goes without saying that they simply hone their magical power and condense the Dao Fruit of Longevity. After that, Taiyi and Daluo control the laws and begin preparing for cultivation. When they finally condense their own Great Dao and fuse their Great Dao into the Great Dao, they become Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortals. However, this path is difficult because the Heavenly Dao does not allow it.

The power of the Heavenly Dao relies on the Great Dao within the primordial world. Once you cultivate your own Great Dao within the primordial world, it will be recorded by the Heavenly Dao. How could the Heavenly Dao allow you to break free from the Heavenly Dao and integrate your own Great Dao into its rules? Wouldn't that weaken your own power?

The Golden Spirit Mother and the others were so shocked that they were speechless, while only the carefree Bixiao was not greatly affected.

"Junior brother, why does Heaven allow our teacher to become a sage?"

Zhou Chen slowly walked up to Bi Xiao, raised his hand and rubbed Bi Xiao's little head, and spoke while Bi Xiao looked at him with a glare that seemed ready to bite.

"The teacher only used tricks and did not reach the true realm of the Primordial Golden Immortal. The teacher used the Primordial Purple Qi to integrate his own Great Dao into the rules of the Heavenly Dao, but did not integrate it into the rules of the Great Dao."

"In the primordial world, the teacher could unleash the power of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, wielding the power of the Heavenly Dao, and was even significantly stronger than an ordinary Grand Luo Golden Immortal. However, once outside the primordial world, if he encountered a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, he would be utterly humiliated."

On Jin'ao Island, in Biyou Palace, the imposing figure sitting in the center couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth, clearly furious. If he didn't want to hear what this rebellious disciple wanted to say, he would have already rushed over and given him a good beating.

Indeed, this figure is none other than the Tongtian Sect Leader. A sage can perceive the primordial world with a single thought; that is no mere boast.

Moreover, with Bixiao and Zhou Chen causing such a commotion in the East China Sea with their Purple Lightning Hammers, the Tongtian Sect Leader couldn't help but pay attention.

Originally, upon discovering that they had found Yingzhou Island, while I was happy for my disciples, I couldn't resist my curiosity and followed them in with my divine sense.

The Tongtian Sect Leader knew what happened next. When Zhou Chen and the others talked about the Sages, although they admired their boldness, they still planned to shield them from the secrets of heaven to avoid any problems. However, after investigating, they found that it was unnecessary, because Yingzhou Island itself had the ability to shield the secrets of heaven. Otherwise, it would have been found by others long ago. Moreover, Yingzhou Island was not in the prehistoric world. It wandered around in the dimensional space of the prehistoric world. Finding Yingzhou Island depended entirely on luck.

……

Yingzhou Island: "Turns out the teacher is all show and no substance! I thought he was so amazing!"

Bixiao was not in a good mood, and her words almost broke the Tongtian Sect Leader's defenses.

"Bixiao! What nonsense are you spouting?"

Yunxiao stepped forward and slapped him, scolding him.

Jin Ling and the others glared fiercely at Bi Xiao, who was terrified. She covered her mouth and dared not say anything more.

Tongtian was quite relieved. After all, he was a sage. How could he be said to be all show and no substance? A sage is a Primordial Golden Immortal of the Primordial World, the strongest being in the Primordial World. As for Zhou Chen's suggestion to go to the Primordial World and compare himself with a Primordial Golden Immortal, come back to me when you break through to the Primordial Realm!

What's the point of making assumptions? I'm the strongest right now, let's try it if you don't believe me! Comparing myself to a Primordial Great Luo? Why don't you compare me to Pangu, the Father God?
"Bixiao, you can't speak so recklessly in the future. Our master and other saints are not people we can talk about at will."

Furthermore, regardless of the strength of our master, they are still our master. Our master selflessly teaches us, guides us onto the path of cultivation, and even bestows upon us protective spiritual treasures—this is their way of protecting us. We must not disrespect our master!

The Holy Mother Jinling also sternly reprimanded Bixiao. Although she knew Bixiao had no intention of doing it, she still wanted to teach her a lesson so that she would remember it and not cause any big trouble in the future, which would make her regret it.

"Oh, I see, Senior Sister."

Bixiao lowered her head and said dejectedly. She knew she had said the wrong thing and could only obediently listen to the scolding.

"Senior Sister Bixiao, you should watch your words in the future. This is our teacher. If it were any other stranger, they would probably really take action if you dared to say such things. Saints cannot be insulted. This is an unspoken agreement among saints."

The other sages aren't as easy to talk to as our teacher! Especially the one from Jade Void Palace, he looks down on us disciples of the Intercepting Sect in the slightest! We must follow the rules in his presence, and never speak ill of sages outside, for sages can sense such things in the primordial world.”

Zhou Chen also said earnestly that his senior sister should have some reverence for the sages. He did not want his lovely senior sister to end up dying and being deified.

"Ah! Did the teacher hear what I just said?"

Bixiao was stunned by Zhou Chen's words. If the teacher found out, wouldn't she scold her? She had already been scolded by several senior sisters, and she would be scolded by the teacher again when she returned to Jin'ao Island. How could she be so lucky!
Jin Ling and the others were also startled. Although they hadn't said anything disrespectful, they had just discussed saints. If other saints sensed this, there might be trouble.

"Don't worry! Yingzhou Island itself has an array that conceals the secrets of heaven, and it is also located outside the primordial world, so even saints cannot perceive it. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many spiritual roots here. You should know that even saints would be tempted by these two spiritual roots."

Zhou Chen comforted the group for a moment, then smiled and changed the subject.

"Of course, unless there's some kind of idle saint who's been watching us the whole time and came with us to Yingzhou Island, they wouldn't know about our conversation. Senior sister, which saint do you think would be so bored?"
