Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 107, Section 106: Manifestation of Humanity, An Alternative Investiture of the Gods

At that very moment, hymns of praise resounded throughout heaven and earth, for the Three Sovereigns had already attained sainthood!
A strange emotion surged forth among all living beings, and a will whose status was equivalent to that of Heaven and Earth truly manifested.

Humanity has been fully manifested.

With the support of the original essence of the three sages—Heaven, Earth, and Man—the will of humanity, once manifested, possesses immense power. Although weaker than the Way of Heaven, it is not much different from the Way of Earth.

Under the influence of the Three Sovereigns, humanity evolved into a divine sword that shattered countless dimensions and directly slashed at the giant hand of the Heavenly Dao.

The Heavenly Dao Giant Hand tried to dodge, but was restrained by the Earthly Dao, and could only take the sword strike head-on, which severed the Heavenly Dao Giant Hand in one blow.

boom!
A deafening roar echoed in the hearts of all beings, the sky instantly turned blood red, space shattered, and the earth trembled violently, as if the chaos of the universe was about to be reenacted.

"It's over, they've broken through!"

Ji Yuan cursed inwardly and quickly took control of the Tongtian Jianmu tree to protect the primordial world.

The roots of the Jianmu tree spread across countless times and planes, finally stabilizing the world.

Then a void containing infinite spacetime and the aura of reincarnation appeared in the world.

Ji Yuan understood that this was the Heavenly Dao forcibly drawing the Heavenly Dao Saint back.

Sure enough, a moment later, Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and Houtu appeared from the cave.

The moment Houtu appeared in the mortal world, she understood everything and instantly returned to the Netherworld, inheriting the status of the Earthly Saint. The origin of the Earthly Dao was strengthened once again.

Meanwhile, Laozi and others also received the will of Heaven.

Kill Jieyin!

Kill Zhunti!

The three of them were somewhat helpless, yet had no choice but to take action.

The Tai Chi symbol covered the sky and the sun, enveloping Jieyin and Zhunti.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable, with his hand forming the Limitless Seal, shattered the Chaos Limitless and slammed it fiercely towards Jieyin and Zhunti.

The Tongtian Sect Leader, wielding the Qingping Sword, unleashed a sword light powerful enough to cleave the entire universe, striking down fiercely.

At this moment, Ji Yuan also sensed the unusual movement of the thought in Nuwa Palace. Immediately, the thought entered Nuwa's Dharma Body. With a thought in mind, he waved his slender hand and a Tai Su handprint pressed down fiercely, also attacking Jieyin and Zhunti.

As allies, the Three Sovereigns and Houtu naturally wouldn't sit idly by.

"The Guiding Pestle!"

"The Seven Treasures Tree!"

"The Wheel of Reincarnation!"

"The River Chart and the Luo River Writing!"

"Kongtong Seal!"

"The Holy Sword of All People!"

In an instant, the great powers, magical treasures, and profound mysteries of the ten sages collided, and the world became pitch black.

"Boom!"

A colossal hole, piercing through countless worlds and endless dimensions of time and space, suddenly appeared on Xiniu Hezhou. A chaotic aura swept across the primordial world, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

The power of the Ten Saints is extraordinary!
But is this all the power of the Ten Saints has to offer?

The phantom of Dao Ancestor Hongjun appeared in the heavens and earth. In an instant, the Jade Disc of Creation pierced through Jieyin and Zhunti, but did not harm them in the slightest. It only took away the Primordial Purple Qi.

The saints could not discern whether Hongjun was pleased or angry. They only heard Hongkun slowly speak: "This matter ends here. The four saints, please come to Zixiao Palace."

As Hongjun finished speaking, the angry will of the Heavenly Dao vanished instantly.

The origin of Heaven has been devoured, and the Human Path is directly aiding the Earth Path. It is no longer realistic to reclaim the origin. If the fighting continues, the entire prehistoric world will be destroyed.

A great calamity has passed. Countless powerful beings in the primordial world, however, have begun to ponder: with two holy positions now vacant in the Heavenly Dao, will they have a chance to glimpse one?
Haotian, who was in charge of the Heavenly Court, felt a vague unease in his heart, as if a great calamity was about to befall the world.

After the saints departed, all living beings looked up and discovered that a black sun had suddenly appeared in the sky.

Ji Yuan naturally noticed it as well, and sensing the familiar aura within, he blurted out two words.

"Rahu! The Demon Realm!"

That black sun connected to a world where the six desires intertwined and demonic energy surged. If Ji Yuan's guess was correct, this should be the demon realm created by Rahu. He even sensed the aura of the incarnation of the six desires within it, indicating that the incarnation of the six desires had colluded with Rahu.

Ji Yuan was somewhat displeased. They had planned for a long time to establish the balance of power between Heaven, Earth, and Man, but they never expected that Luo Hou would take advantage of the chaos and connect the Demon Realm with the Primordial World.

The Heavenly Dao will not refuse such a fusion of worlds; in essence, it is still strengthening it, which is why Rahu was able to merge silently.

"Alas, it seems that something unexpected is about to happen in the primordial world..."

Ji Yuan sighed inwardly. It seemed that Luo Hou had completely transformed into a calamity of heaven and earth and was able to mobilize its power to connect the world passage with the primordial world. Perhaps there were some unusual changes to it.

However, Ji Yuan couldn't care less about that now. Hongjun had summoned the four sages to Zixiao Palace, and he himself had to play the role of Nuwa.

……

Zixiao Palace.

Hongjun, with his back to the saints, went straight to the point:

"I know you want the Primordial Purple Qi."

Upon hearing this, all the saints were taken aback, thinking that the Dao Ancestor was being far too direct.

Two streams of primordial purple energy manifested in the Purple Cloud Palace.

A look of longing flashed in the eyes of several sages. The Primordial Purple Qi almost represented a sagehood. Although it had no effect on them, it was still very good to bestow it upon their disciples.

"It's simple to get two streams of purple energy. Whoever makes the greatest contribution to the Heavenly Dao will receive the Primordial Purple Energy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the saints were extremely surprised.

Hongjun Daozu did this so that many beings could be listed on the Investiture of the Gods and use their own origins to nourish the origin of the Heavenly Dao. However, once listed on the Investiture of the Gods, they would be subject to the restrictions of the Heavenly Rules. If they obtained the Primordial Purple Qi and became saints, they could break free from the constraints. If they did not, they would become people of the Heavenly Court.

"This is a completely open and aboveboard scheme by the Dao Ancestor!"

Ji Yuan, inside Nuwa's divine body, sighed inwardly.

It is foreseeable that countless beings will vie for a place on the Investiture of the Gods list, but only two will be able to obtain the Primordial Purple Qi. The others who did not obtain the Primordial Purple Qi not only lost their freedom but also contributed to the creation of heaven and earth, strengthening their origins and enhancing the status of the Jade Emperor. It was truly a win-win situation.

This can no longer be called a great calamity; it's more like a transaction, except that many people will sell themselves to become laborers for the Heavenly Court.

"As expected of the Dao Ancestor, he's really cunning."

Laozi, with a worried look in his eyes, said to Hongjun:

"Master, isn't this a bit too hasty?"

Hongjun chuckled softly.

"Hasty? The more you do, the more you are rewarded. After being conferred a divine position, you will have merit in governing the world. The one with the most merit will be rewarded with Primordial Purple Qi. Even those without Primordial Purple Qi will still have merit. Isn't that fair?"

"This matter is settled. All living beings may seek the purple aura, and the matter of conferring gods will be handled by Haotian and Jiyuan."

After speaking, the Dao Ancestor threw the purple energy into the primordial world, and then threw the four sages out of the Purple Cloud Palace.

Outside Zixiao Palace, Yuanshi Tianzun looked rather displeased. Daozu was clearly pointing fingers at them, pointing out that they were occupying the position of Heavenly Dao Saints without doing anything.

The Tongtian Sect Leader looked the worst; he had a feeling that many of his disciples were going to run away to the Heavenly Court to compete for the Primordial Purple Qi.

Ji Yuan, controlling the Nuwa avatar, left Zixiao Palace and went straight back to Nuwa Palace.

He was puzzled. The Dao Ancestor had done an unconventional conferment of gods, so the three religions probably wouldn't fight each other. But what was the calamity energy permeating the world?
