Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 130, Section 129: Mythical Authority, Nuwa's Daoist Secrets

"What business is this of my dragon clan?"

Zu Long stepped forward and asked.

The dragon race was already in decline after the Dragon-Han Calamity, and now they have to participate in another great calamity. They really are targeting one race.

Hongjun glanced at the First Emperor and slowly said:

"If my plan is followed, the dragon race will have no chance to cleanse their karma. Traveling the westward route can both clear their karma and improve their cultivation. Why not do it?"

Zu Long paused for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there was no problem. However, the feeling of his own descendants being used as pawns was indeed not good.

"What was the purpose of the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West that the Dao Ancestor once set out?"

Ji Yuan stepped forward and asked.

"The purpose."

Hongjun sighed.

"The original purpose was very simple: to transfer the fortune of the human race and the fortune of Taoism to Buddhism through the spread of Buddhism, to achieve a balance, and then the Heavenly Way would gradually devour the Human Way, grow to a certain extent, and then devour the Earthly Way, so as to achieve the unity of the three paths and the sublimation of the Heavenly Way."

"Finally, through countless eons, the primordial chaos will be transformed into the ordinary, refining all the threads of fate and the Pangu Dao Fruit, thereby transcending the shackles of the chaotic universe and reaching a realm equal to the Great Dao."

"After countless eons, the immortals and Buddhas went into seclusion. There was no longer a path of cultivation or destiny in the world. All living beings returned to ordinariness and were left to develop as they pleased, which also prevented the return of Pangu."

After he finished speaking, everyone present couldn't help but gasp. The Dao Ancestor was ruthless enough. After this great calamity, the actions of all cultivators except him would be meaningless. Everything was just a tool for him to prove his Dao.

That's really ruthless; everyone is just a pawn. But I also admire his composure now.

"Did the Daoist Ancestor have any speculations about the Journey to the West that was ordained by fate?"

Ji Yuan asked again, "Now that Hongjun only has a trace of his true self left and can't do anything, why not ask more details to prepare for the Journey to the West?"

"If this is the case..."

Hongjun pondered for a moment.

"The Great Tribulation is a net I wove with the power of fate. It cannot be changed much now. Moreover, the protagonist of destiny has not changed, and the predetermined tribulations have not changed. So, in essence, it is still a struggle for fate, but it is the fate of the entire Primordial True World. Reaching the end will be the sublimation of the Primordial World and the attainment of the Great Dao. If it cannot reach the end, then it will be the end of the Primordial World."

Ji Yuan nodded in agreement. He also felt that the essence was still a struggle for fate, but it determined the fate of the entire prehistoric world. To put it simply, it was just a game of overcoming obstacles, but it was not something that could be overcome by sheer strength alone.

Fate has gathered the imprint of the Chaos Demon God, and its methods are endless, making it not so easy to deal with. However, if one passes through the eighty-one tribulations, one can attain the Dao of the Primordial Golden Immortal.

Ji Yuan still needs to think carefully about the specific candidate.

After asking a few more questions, Hongjun drifted away and went to the Heavenly Realm.

Now he has only a trace of his true self left, and everything is taken over by fate, which is quite tragic.

After Hongjun left, Yuanfeng, Shiqilin, and Zulong surrounded Ji Yuan.

Zu Long said with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist Ji Yuan, do you know where my three clans should live?"

Although there are still some undivided areas on the primordial land, we still need to ask about this being who truly promoted the integration of the three worlds. After the Dragon-Han War, these three clan leaders have become very cautious.

Ji Yuan already had the answers to the three clan leaders' questions.

"The Dragon Clan still rules over the four seas, but the sea area located between the eastern and western continents still needs to be personally suppressed by Fellow Daoist Ancestral Dragon."

Zulong nodded, thanked him, and then led the dragon clan back to the Four Seas.

Ji Yuan then continued:

"Let the Phoenix Clan go to the Jianmu Tree."

"As for the Qilin clan, go to Uncle Zhen Yuanzi, he will find you a good place."

Both the First Qilin and the Yuanfeng expressed their gratitude and left the place.

After the three clan leaders left, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi approached again.

The two bowed and expressed their gratitude:

"Thank you for your life, fellow Daoist. We were once..."

"Well, there's no need to say more about that. There are some seats that you all have to take."

Ji Yuan interrupted Di Jun.

In his original plan for the rebirth of mythology, Di Jun and Tai Yi were indispensable. In many myths of his previous life, Di Jun and Tai Yi were beings of extremely high status, and their imprints were left between heaven and earth, which could further promote the integration of the two worlds.

"Ugh."

Di Jun felt rather embarrassed, as repaying evil with kindness always made people with a conscience feel guilty.

"May I ask what kind of power is bestowed upon me and Taiyi?"

Di Jun voiced his doubts. He knew it was some kind of rank, but he wasn't quite sure what it was.

"This."

Ji Yuan smiled slightly.

"That is a profound power after the false has become real. It can be said to be a kind of belief that gives you the great power to turn the illusory into the real. As for what it is, you need to comprehend it yourselves. When you truly become one, that will be the time of primordial chaos."

Di Jun and Tai Yi were overjoyed. A clear path to the Primordial Great Luo is something that many people can only dream of in their entire lives. Now, they only need to tap into their own potential to make the ultimate leap.

"Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Ji Yuan."

After thanking Ji Yuan, Di Jun and Tai Yi returned to Taiyang Star.

Ji Yuan watched Di Jun and Tai Yi's departing figures with a smile in his eyes.

To be honest, he had no idea how surprised Di Jun and Tai Yi looked when they discovered the real thing inside their bodies.

When they compiled their own myths and spread them among the human race, they incorporated the status and abilities of a series of sun gods, such as Zhuzhao, Apollo, Ra, Sur, and Surya. In this continuous process of refining the false into the true, their understanding of the sun only deepened until they finally united and made the ultimate leap.

The Great Dao of the Primordial True Realm is now almost exposed, and an incredible era is about to begin. The stronger the beings within it, the more chaotic universe origins they absorb, and the stronger the essence of the Primordial True Realm will become, even reaching parity with it and ultimately achieving sublimation!
But the primary task is to first resolve the issue of destiny, the grand cosmic will. This is an absolute struggle of positions, with no possibility of reconciliation.

After Di Jun and the others left, the Three Pure Ones also came over.

The Master of Heaven patted Ji Yuan on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"You've done quite a lot, kid. We actually all possess the power to transform the fake into the real."

Ji Yuan smiled slightly and complimented:
"Since we are going to refine the fake into the real, then naturally we can't do without Master and the two senior uncles."

The three Pure Ones all nodded and returned to the Dao Domain together.

The path to enlightenment is boundless. Now that the world has undergone a complete transformation, they also need to return and reflect upon it. For cultivators, the pursuit of the Dao is limitless.

After the Three Pure Ones left, the two Buddhist saints also came over.

Both Jieyin and Zhunti were all smiling. "Nephew, what skill you have! The Three Realms have been unified, the Primordial World has been elevated, all three thousand Great Daos have appeared, and the Heavenly Dao has ceased to exist. This is an unprecedented era!"

Jieyin was quite amazed by Ji Yuan's actions.

In fact, Ji Yuan wouldn't have done this if the Dao hadn't given birth to his true self.

The power that Heaven had previously bestowed upon him was more of a gift from the Dao Ancestor than from Heaven itself. The Dao Ancestor had divided the power to sow the seeds of a counterattack, but he hadn't expected Ji Yuan to directly merge the three realms.

Now Ji Yuan also understands why there are four consciousnesses vying with the Dao Ancestor. One is the Heavenly Dao Self, one is Destiny, and the remaining two are the Dao Ancestor's Yin and Yang, good and evil aspects. The good aspect adopts a slow, insidious method of erosion and has also placed its bets on itself. Under the Heavenly Dao's vision, there is no reason why it cannot see its own characteristics.

The evil side took a more ruthless approach. It originally planned to directly control the Six Saints, forcibly manipulate the course of heaven and earth, and devour everything in the primordial world at the fastest speed, but was stopped by the good side.

These were all things that the Dao Ancestor told him through a telepathic message before he left.

Ji Yuan smiled and bowed in Buddhist salutation to Jieyin and Zhunti:

"The construction of the prehistoric world still needs the strong support of our senior uncles."

"That's natural."

With a smile on his face and radiating Buddhist light, the two were about to leave on the light when Ji Yuan stopped them.

"Why don't you two senior uncles go to the Netherworld to see Ksitigarbha? This primordial era's ascension might be the opportunity for him to attain enlightenment."

"good!"

The two immediately changed direction and headed towards the underworld.

After the two Buddhist saints left, the twelve ancestral witches also arrived and thanked Ji Yuan, saying that they were able to come back to life and wield extremely powerful abilities entirely thanks to Ji Yuan.

After expressing their gratitude, the twelve ancestral witches returned to the witch realm. In their endless depravity, their longing for the mortal world reached its peak.

After that, only Nuwa remained at the scene.

Nuwa looked at Ji Yuan, sighed, and slowly said:
"I never imagined that the child who once sought the Dharma but could not find the way would now grow into a towering giant."

"No matter how much they grow up, they will always be your child."

Ji Yuan laughed heartily, then asked:
"Why did Your Majesty lose all emotions and desires?"

He had been curious about the truth of this matter for a long time. Everything before was just speculation. Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally wanted to know everything.

Nuwa glanced at the sky and said softly:

“I once told you that everything has two sides, and this is actually the evil side of the Taoist Ancestor.”

"It all started when I became a saint."

Nuwa's voice seemed to transcend endless time and space, returning to the past.

"At that time, I created the human race and gained great merit and fortune, which enabled me to attain sainthood. But in fact, I did not simply inherit the position of saint, but quietly attained the status of Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal."

"But the Dao Ancestor is in harmony with the Dao of Heaven, and nothing can escape his eyes. Since I am extremely skilled in the Dao of Marriage, he asked me to do him a favor."

At this point, Nuwa's eyes darkened.

"The Dao Ancestor who came to find me that time must have been the evil side. He made an extremely terrifying request, asking me to use the Great Dao of Marriage to stir up the seven emotions and six desires of all living beings, accelerate the gestation of the calamity energy, so that he could digest everything in the primordial world more quickly."

"Of course I was unwilling, so I fought a great battle with the Dao Ancestor in the chaos. Naturally, I lost. The Great Dao of Marriage was extracted, and the three thousand threads of marriage on the red embroidered ball were scattered across the prehistoric world. Fortunately, I secretly used some methods to prevent it from erupting."

"Originally, the seven emotions and six desires would have been forcibly transformed into a calamity for all living beings by the Dao Ancestor. Fortunately, the benevolent Dao Ancestor had some control at that time, which prevented the calamity from fully evolving, but it also allowed the seven emotions and six desires to give birth to a self and become an incarnation."

"Fortunately, not long after that, you woke me up and, having borne a trace of cause and effect, were able to restrain my seven emotions and six desires, thus preventing them from turning into a scourge on the world."

After listening, Ji Yuan suddenly realized that it was indeed related to the Dao Ancestor. He never expected that the time when he had to call out to Nuwa to awaken her would become the key to controlling his seven emotions and six desires.

"Fortunately, we have now withdrawn our emotions and desires, so a major catastrophe is unlikely to occur."

Nuwa looked terrified.

In the future she once saw, the seven emotions and six desires would evolve into an incomparably terrifying demon, born from the desires of all living beings, and ultimately destroy the entire primordial world.

"How did you come up with all these myths in this world where the fake becomes real? It's practically a miracle."

Nuwa looked at Ji Yuan and expressed her long-standing doubts. She knew that there were dozens of powers similar to authority gathered on her body at this moment, and upon closer inspection, they were all powers of creation.

"This."

Ji Yuan hesitated for a moment before speaking:
"In the end, it all comes from a dream. In a dream, there are countless eras. I have seen many different civilizations. These myths have all evolved under the catalysis of countless years. I take the essence and discard the dross, and mixed them together to create the Mountain and Sea Realm in the incense, as well as many powers."

Ji Yuan stood up and looked at the vast array of creatures on the primordial continent.

"In truth, the real miracle lies in the countless lives lost. Even the Heavenly Dao's immense fortune over countless years cannot suppress the desires of the masses."

"Humanity is the way of all things and all living beings; humanity will surely triumph over nature!"

Without the incense offerings that evolved from the faith of all living beings in the Great Luo Heaven, how could there be an opportunity for the unification of the Three Realms?

Nuwa nodded in approval:

"Indeed, man can conquer nature. Aren't countless innate saints also living beings?"

"There may be even greater potential for humanity to be explored."

Ji Yuan nodded, then asked:
"Does Your Majesty still wish to return to the Nuwa Palace in the Chaos?"

Nuwa shook her head:

"I'm not going back. Now that you've secured the Trinity Holy Position, I should naturally try to understand it thoroughly. There are so many mysteries within it that I haven't fully grasped yet."

"Alright!" Ji Yuan laughed.

"Why don't you stay on the Jianmu tree, Your Highness?"

The two continents are now separated by the Jianmu tree. Ji Yuan lives on the Jianmu tree, opposite the western continent. He is afraid that fate will cause trouble, so it would be best to have the Goddess Nuwa in charge.

Nuwa glanced at Ji Yuan and teased:
"I think you want me to help you guard the border between the two continents, right? That's no problem. I also want to see what tricks fate is up to."

Nuwa then went with Ji Yuan to the Jianmu tree.

"This is a Primordial Spiritual Root?"

Nuwa looked at the towering Jianmu tree with surprise. Although it was not the most outstanding Primordial Spiritual Root, there were very few known Primordial Spiritual Roots in the vast chaotic universe. Given the current growth rate of the Primordial True Realm, it might very well become a top-tier Primordial Spiritual Root.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he pulled down the Nuwa Palace from the chaos and placed it next to Ji Yuan's dojo.

Seeing this, Ji Yuan felt relieved. He would use his Primordial True Realm powers to explore the Primordial Secret Land and see if there were any strange innate objects or innate beings.

After all, the unification of the three realms is no different from the creation of the world anew, and opportunities in the primordial world are everywhere.
