Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 2.2. The Three Pure Ones Establish Their Religion and Achieve Sainthood; Ji Yuan Seeks His Mother and the Dharma.

And so, Ji Yuan spent two hundred years helping “people” day after day.

On the edge of Buzhou Mountain, a helpful fortune teller gradually gained some fame.

"Whoo~"

Ji Yuan exhaled a breath of cool air and slowly put down the chilled vermilion juice in his hand.

These vermilion fruits were grown by the tribe where Ji Yuan currently resides. Although they are not very old, the yield is very high, and they make an absolutely delicious juice.

As for why such a rare and precious medicinal herb could be wasted on making juice, we have to talk about Ji Yuan's Dang Kangtu.

Two hundred years is certainly enough time for Ji Yuan to light up Dang Kangtu, and Dang Kang gave Ji Yuan an ability called [Abundant Harvest].

This ability cannot be activated actively; it can only take effect passively. Any crops planted within a certain range of Ji Yuan will yield a bumper harvest. Of course, this ability is also limited by cultivation level.

Just as Ji Yuan had thought, the auspicious beast traits could be stacked, and he felt his luck had increased even more.

Looking at the Kui Niu image, which was now about one-fifth lit up, Ji Yuan felt a sense of anticipation.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas states that the Kui Niu was born with the ability to summon wind, rain, lightning, and thunder.

It's an offensive capability, after all, and Ji Yuan was still a little excited thinking about it.

Just as Ji Yuan was lost in thought, a shirtless, burly man with various inscriptions on his chest walked towards him.

"Brother Ji Yuan, I'm here again."

A bold voice came from the big man's mouth.

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Ji Yuan's face darkened.

This burly man was named Lie, a high-ranking shaman of the Wu tribe, equivalent to a Golden Immortal in the Daoist realm.

Because Ji Yuan was somewhat famous for his divination skills, some members of the Wu tribe from Buzhou Mountain would come to him to have their fortunes told about their opportunities for cultivation, but this Lie...

"Brother Ji Yuan, I'm going to that place today... you know what I mean."

Lie raised an eyebrow, his smile somewhat lewd.

It's hard to imagine that such a tall and imposing man could make such a lewd expression.

"Let me do some calculations."

Ji Yuan closed his eyes and gestured with his finger.

"Don't go there anytime soon, something big is about to happen in the world."

Ji Yuan's expression brightened; it was finally coming.

"Huh? All right then."

On the other hand, Lie looked constipated, put down the unknown beast meat in his hand, and walked away dejectedly.

As for why Lie was disappointed, it was because he came to Ji Yuan to ask whether his secret rendezvous with his mistress would be discovered. Lie was the first person to come to him for such a divination.

As for why Lie wasn't allowed to go, it's because Ji Yuan's divination indicated that a very auspicious day for him was approaching soon, which could only mean...

Sanqing established the religion and became a saint!

……

It was another uneventful day.

hum-

At this moment, all living beings in the primordial world could hear a deafening roar.

The next moment, a magnificent voice resounded throughout the primordial world.

"Heaven is above, I, Taiqing Taishang, now establish the Human Teachings, using the Taiji Diagram to suppress the destiny, educate the human race, and protect its continuous life."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the celestial phenomena changed.

Purple qi travels 30,000 miles eastward, and the primordial qi condenses into clouds, evolving into the Taiji Yin-Yang diagram, which envelops humanity.

The humans seemed to sense something, spontaneously kneeling on the ground, a flood of emotions welling up within them. This was...

The Great Dao of the Golden Elixir of Supreme Purity!

Suddenly everything fell silent, heaven and earth were still, and all living beings felt a sense of peace in their hearts.

Taiqing attained sainthood!

When Taiqing became a saint, a slightly younger voice echoed throughout the world.

"Heaven is above, I, Yuqing Yuanshi, hereby establish the Chan Sect! To expound the secrets of Heaven and follow the mandate of Heaven, all those with pure origins and abundant blessings may enter my sect."

Upon hearing these words, all those in the primordial world with abundant blessings bowed their heads and spontaneously headed towards Mount Kunlun. Divine thunder roared throughout the heavens and earth, cleansing the primordial world of its filth.

Yuqing attained sainthood!

After Yuqing became a saint, a young man's voice echoed throughout the world.

"Heaven's will is above, and I, Shangqing Tongtian, hereby establish the Jie Sect! Our teachings are for all, regardless of background, aiming to seize a glimmer of hope. All those with ambition are welcome to come and pay homage!"

The primordial world was immediately thrown into an uproar, with all living beings discussing the possibility of joining the Jie Sect.

The clamor of discussion was drowned out by the strange phenomena of heaven and earth. Ten thousand swords rang out in unison, and the earth, fire, wind, and water raged, but they were suppressed by the sword intent of Shangqing, which demonstrated the sword way of Shangqing.

Shangqing attained sainthood!

The world gradually returned to calm.

Meanwhile, in the West, two figures watched with envy as the Three Pure Ones attained sainthood.

These two were none other than the Guide Daoist and the Zhunti Daoist.

"Senior brother, I never expected that the opportunity to become a saint would actually lie with the human race. It seems that after this great calamity, the human race will prosper greatly. It's a pity that we didn't think of this. If we go to the human race now, we're afraid we won't have enough merit."

The Taoist Master Zhunti had a bitter expression on his face.

“Hey, junior brother, since merit can help us become a saint, let’s just find another place to earn merit. In my opinion, the Western Continent is a good option.”

He comforted and guided Zhunti.

"The West? The West suffered from the Dragon-Han Calamity, its spiritual veins were depleted, and the land was barren. Where can it earn merit?"

Zhunti thought Jieyin was joking.

Jieyin patted Zhunti on the shoulder and said with a smile, "We can do it like this..."

Upon hearing this, Daoist Zhunti's eyes lit up, and he became radiant.

"However, we still need to consider this carefully."

The guide had a smile on his face, and his narrowed eyes flashed with a sharp light.

……

Buzhou Mountain.

At this moment, Ji Yuan's mind was filled with profound mysteries. The Golden Core Dao of Taiqing gave Ji Yuan a lot of inspiration. At this moment, his body was shining with immortal light, and his aura suddenly increased. He had actually entered the realm of True Immortal.

"I never imagined that just hearing the voice of the Great Dao from afar could increase my cultivation so much. If I were to become a disciple of a sage and listen to his teachings, my cultivation would surely increase by leaps and bounds."

Ji Yuan muttered to himself.

However, it is extremely difficult to become a disciple of a sage. The Supreme Lord Laozi of the Human Sect will only accept Xuandu as a disciple, while the Primordial Heavenly Venerable of the Jade Pure Sect of the Chan Sect places great importance on lineage. Ji Yuan's lineage as a celestial immortal from the innate human race can only be described as average. Which of the twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect is not a Golden Immortal?

As for the Jie Sect, although it is much better than the previous two, it will still face a near-annihilation disaster in the future...

There's no use worrying about all this now; let's pray to the Holy Mother first.

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan hurriedly went to find Xuan Du.

At this moment, Xuan Du was fast asleep in a tree. He only woke up slowly when Ji Yuan called him.

"Ji Yuan, what do you want? Are you going out to look for something again?"

Xuan Du, still sleepy-eyed, yawned.

"No, it's to... um? No, that's not right!"

Ji Yuan then noticed that Xuan Du was emitting wisps of golden light, carrying a hint of immortality.

Gold is immortal.

"Xuan Du, you've become a Golden Immortal???"

Ji Yuan exclaimed in shock.

He hadn't expected Xuan Du's aptitude to be so high, that he could break through realms even after hearing the Dao in a dream.

Xuandu yawned again and said, "I heard an old man preaching in my dream, and this is how I woke up."

"As expected, Taiqing had long set his sights on Xuandu, but was waiting for him to become a saint before taking him as a disciple."

Ji Yuan muttered to himself.

"Never mind all that, come to my room first."

At this moment, Ji Yuan didn't care about anything else. Xuan Du's luck was amazing, and having him pray with him might help him gain the Empress's attention more quickly.
