Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 28. Tang Sanzang is actually myself.

Putting away the Yuanfeng Feather, Ji Yuan appeared in the outside world with a thought, and the small world transformed into a bead that fell into his hand.

After Ji Yuan gained control, this small world also became his, and he could carry it with him, making it convenient to take stock of his gains when he broke through realms in the future.

Looking at this sea filled with the vengeful spirits of dragons and phoenixes, Ji Yuan suddenly had an idea.

Just do it.

Ji Yuan's divine sense spread across the vast ocean, sensing countless vengeful spirits.

A single thought can reverse cause and effect!

Instantly, the good results from clearing away resentment were absorbed by the Record of Mythical Beasts of the Mountains and Seas, and the Turtle-shaped Diagram was fully illuminated.

This is one application of the reversal of cause and effect: first suffer the effect and then repay the cause, but the premise is that one has the ability to repay the cause.

If one cannot repay the debt, one will suffer the backlash of the law of cause and effect.

Ji Yuan's purification of resentment through the power of fate is the cause, and what he gains is merit and good results.

The next moment, boundless fortune swept out, purifying the vast ocean.

It was only then that Ji Yuan realized just how immense his fortune truly was.

In the past, purifying resentment was done little by little, consuming very little energy, almost negligible. Once a little was consumed, it was quickly replenished, so it couldn't be sensed.

Only after a great deal of fortune was lost did I begin to sense something.

As mentioned before, a living being cannot see how much luck it has, but it can roughly deduce it from the sudden depletion of its luck.

According to Ji Yuan's calculations, his own fortune was incredibly vast.

He knew that lighting up a picture of a mythical beast would increase his luck, but he never expected that the luck would reach such a level with the blessing of dozens of pictures of mythical beasts.

He couldn't help but wonder, would the sage really dare to attack him now?
It should be noted that during the Investiture of the Gods, King Zhou possessed the destiny of a human emperor, and even sages dared not attack him directly, but could only rely on karmic entanglements to take action.

At this moment, he not only possessed great fortune himself, but also the fortune of the human race's teacher, not to mention the merits of the Heavenly Dao.

"It seems I should go back to the Jie Sect and ask my master when I have time. It's too risky to rely on predictions for such a life-or-death matter."

"If even a sage wouldn't dare to attack me rashly, then things would get interesting."

Countless thoughts immediately popped into Ji Yuan's mind.

I don't want to think about that too much right now. Let's read the Record of Mythical Beasts from the Mountains and Seas.

A thought came to my mind.

The Record of Mythical Beasts of the Mountains and Seas unfolds, and the bird-headed, turtle-shaped mythical beast is now fully illuminated.

[Light up the spiral tortoise image to gain the ability: Immortality, consuming it grants eternal life.]

"???"

"Is Tang Sanzang actually myself?"

"What use is this thing to me?"

Ji Yuan was utterly speechless.

The Golden Immortal realm condenses a point of immortality, granting them limitless lifespan. It was only after the establishment of the Heavenly Court and the initial manifestation of Heavenly Rules and Regulations that the concept of Heavenly Lifespan came into being.

Even the Golden Immortals no longer have unlimited lifespans and must face tribulations.

However, Ji Yuan is about to advance to the Great Luo realm. The Great Luo realm is infinite in time and space, eternal and free, and is not limited by lifespan at all.

This ability to live forever and have an infinite lifespan is almost useless to him.

"Well, it's better than nothing, at least it's a skill."

The light entering his body had an effect that was not as useless as Ji Yuan had imagined.

Ji Yuan's physical body was already extremely strong after fusing with Baxia's abilities. The Xuan Turtle's abilities did not strengthen his physical body, but they greatly enhanced the vitality of his flesh and blood.

He had a feeling that if he let a drop of his blood go unchecked and allowed it to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it might evolve into some kind of being after a few years.

"Indeed, the abilities of each of these strange beasts should not be underestimated."

The next image in the catalog slowly appeared.

It was in human form, but Ji Yuan couldn't tell who it was.

Putting away the map of the strange beasts, Ji Yuan continued his journey toward the eye of the sea.

Along the way, the seawater became clear and no longer as murky and gloomy as before.

"That's right, protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility."

Ji Yuan chuckled.

After traveling at a brisk pace, the outline of the sea eye finally came into view ahead.

A huge whirlpool stretched across the sea, drawing in the surrounding seawater.

This is the Sea Eye, also known as the Ruins of Return. It is connected to the chaos that devours all things. If there is no powerful force to suppress it, it is very easy to cause a riot and trigger a great calamity.

Furthermore, it is prone to harboring evil spirits that wreak havoc on the world. This was just as Ji Yuan saw the sea eye.

A divine bird, its entire body as red as flames and topped with a crown, suddenly opened its eyes.

"A person with great fortune?"

"And the old tortoise's aura."

Zhuque muttered to himself.

With a thought, she saw Ji Yuan venturing deeper into the eye of the sea.

At that moment, Ji Yuan's gaze met hers.

Suzaku's lips curled into a smile:
"interesting."

At this moment, Ji Yuan suddenly felt like he was being spied on, and on a whim, he was about to bow.

The next moment, boundless power enveloped him, the world transformed, and he arrived in a world filled with blazing flames.

Directly in front of him, a divine bird bound by the shackles of Heaven was smiling at him.

"Suzaku!"

Ji Yuan quickly bowed and said:
"Ji Yuan, the eldest disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master, pays his respects to the Divine Lord."

"No gift."

Zhuque's voice was deep and seductive.

"Tongtian is quite lucky to have a disciple like you."

"It seems that Suzaku and Master are quite familiar with each other."

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

He couldn't say what was on his mind, so he said to Suzaku:

"You flatter me, Divine Lord. It is merely a matter of mutual support between Master and Junior."

"Hehehe."

Suzaku let out another soft laugh:
"You're so modest, completely unlike your master."

I already know why you've come.

Ji Yuan looked puzzled.

Suzaku then said:
"You already possess the aura of innate Gui water and the essence of Yi wood, and you've traveled across half of the prehistoric world to find me in the South Sea, surely for the essence of Bing fire."

Ji Yuan exclaimed in surprise:
"The Divine Lord has discerning eyes."

Zhuque stood up, walked around Ji Yuan once, and said:

“You have a good ambition, wanting to walk the path of proving the Way through force.”

Ji Yuan was genuinely surprised this time; it was obvious.

As if knowing what he was thinking, Zhuque slowly said:
"By integrating the essence of the five elements, you will forge an innate Dao body and walk the path of Taiyi, where all things are transformed into one."

Ji Yuan: "???"

Zhuque ignored Ji Yuan's surprise and said again, "I do owe that old tortoise a favor, but I can also refuse to give you the essence of Bing Fire. Anyway, I can't leave here, so I'll just leave it at that."

Ji Yuan was speechless and said:

"My Lord, this..."

Ji Yuan never expected that the mighty Vermilion Bird would resort to such shameless tactics.

Suzaku smiled:
"I need you to do me a favor. If you agree, I will not only give you the essence of the innate Bing Fire, but also many other benefits."

"You've fused with the Authority of Fire, haven't you?"

Ji Yuan nodded.

"I will give you the True Fire of Nirvana, which will greatly enhance your authority over fire."

Ji Yuan's expression brightened. "If you're talking about this, I won't be sleepy anymore."

The Nirvana Flame can be said to be the most fundamental flame of the Phoenix Clan, possessing the power to return to the source and be reborn.

However, this kind of flame is unique to the Phoenix Clan and has never been revealed to outsiders.

Ji Yuan was naturally very tempted by the opportunity to obtain this flame.

But even if I'm tempted, I still need to ask the questions I should.

"My Lord, what can I do to help? Please speak freely."

Suzaku flashed a triumphant smile and slowly spoke:
"I want you……"
