Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 47. The Yin Spirit of Kuafu Establishes the Path of Ghost Immortals
"O soul, oh soul, come back!"

As Ji Yuan chanted, he waved the soul-summoning banner in his hand. Slowly, the lingering spirits nearby followed the guidance of the unseen forces and approached Ji Yuan.

Gradually, millions of ignorant and chaotic spirits gathered at Longevity Mountain. This was even though Ji Yuan had intentionally controlled the range of the summoning, yet there were still so many spirits.

No wonder Houtu gained so much merit from establishing the cycle of reincarnation, and directly obtained the position of saint.

Ji Yuan shook his head, when suddenly a strange, sinister spirit caught his attention.

Although the spirit's eyes were clouded, it possessed an indestructible quality in its essence; it was a spirit that had not yet dissipated from the Great Luo realm.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Kuafu, who died tens of thousands of years ago when the ten suns burned the sky.

"Did Kuafu's spirit not completely dissipate?"

Ji Yuan was puzzled.

The Great Luo can have its physical body destroyed and its primordial spirit scattered, but it cannot erase even a trace of the true spirit residing on the Great Dao, which is why it is immortal.

He witnessed Kuafu die in the Ten Suns Burning Heaven Formation and now he has become a spirit, which shows that his primordial spirit was still intact at that time.

If the Wu tribe hadn't neglected cultivating their primordial spirit, making it extremely fragile, perhaps Kuafu could have returned to Buzhou Mountain on his own to rebuild his physical body.

"now……"

Ji Yuan's heart stirred, and Kuafu was immediately taken into the Soul-Summoning Banner.

Then it swept up millions of spirits and entered the underworld.

Among the millions of spirits are birds, beasts, witches, and humans.

Nourished by the boundless Yin energy, the millions of Yin spirits gradually regained their senses and began to make a ruckus after discovering that they had died.

The spirits of the Lich and Demon races, in particular, immediately began fighting, looking like they were locked in a life-or-death struggle.

"stop!"

With a soft shout, Ji Yuan silenced the millions of Yin spirits under his immense power.

"You are all dead, and the cause and effect have been eliminated, so do not carry the things of your life into the afterlife."

Ji Yuan's voice resounded throughout the netherworld, as if it contained the laws of heaven.

At this moment, the human spirits recognized him and called him "Ancestor" repeatedly.

Ji Yuan gestured for them to be quiet, and then spoke:
"I observe that the spirits wander in the primordial world, sometimes dissipating, sometimes turning into evil, without any place to rely on. I wish to create a path for the cultivation of spirits. You are in this yin world, breathing in yin energy. If I can gain some insight from this, you will be fortunate enough to receive a share of the opportunity."

Upon hearing this, the millions of spirits all showed excitement and desperately absorbed the Yin energy.

Ji Yuan sat there quietly, observing.

Ten thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

With the blessing of the Path of Wisdom, Ji Yuan achieved complete enlightenment.

Cultivating oneself in the mortal realm involves gathering the five elements and condensing the three flowers to achieve a great unity of essence, energy, and spirit, thereby reaching a state of perfection.

Yin spirits have no physical body, only a primordial spirit, and can only cultivate qi and spirit. However, Ji Yuan discovered during his observation that when yin spirits inhale and exhale spiritual energy, they condense a physical body with yin energy.

However, it has many flaws.

But it's enough.

“A ghost immortal is one who transcends the yin realm, whose divine form is unclear. Therefore, his yin spirit is solidified and his true spirit is not obscured; this is what makes a ghost immortal.”

"To condense Yin energy and transform it into a physical body is to become a Ghost King, which is equivalent to a True Immortal."

"When the Ghost King comprehends the true meaning of seeking life amidst death and condenses a trace of immortal Yin energy, he becomes a Ghost Saint, equivalent to a Golden Immortal."

"The Ghost Saint evolves the Three Flowers and Five Qi with his ghost body, and thus becomes a Ghost God, equivalent to a Taiyi Golden Immortal." "Above the Ghost God is the Ghost Emperor. He cannot entrust his true spirit to the vast Great Luo Heaven in the underworld, and thus cannot achieve the immortality of the orthodox Great Luo Heaven. However, he can entrust his primordial spirit to the underworld to obtain the power of the Great Luo Heaven."

"Thus, the path of the Ghost Immortal is established!"

As soon as the words fell, a violent tremor came from the underworld. Boundless yin energy surged and formed numerous mountains and rivers. Furthermore, specks of black light scattered upon the millions of yin spirits, and their primordial spirits immediately became more solid.

Drawn by boundless energy, a primordial spiritual treasure was born.

Suddenly, a sword light traversed countless miles of the netherworld and landed in Ji Yuan's hand. The sword was pitch black and named "Netherworld Emperor's Sword." One side was engraved with mountains and rivers, while the other side faintly began to be engraved with Ji Yuan's name.

Holding the Netherworld Emperor's Sword, Ji Yuan gained a faint connection with this underworld.

Ji Yuan gradually realized that this treasure, like Zhen Yuanzi's "Earth Book," possessed extremely powerful abilities under specific circumstances.

Zhen Yuanzi, wielding the Book of Earth, can remain invincible on the ground; Ji Yuan, holding the Emperor's Sword, can also live without worry in the underworld.

Its abilities go far beyond this; they will only be fully realized once Ji Yuan's cultivation level improves.

"It seems that such treasures as the Book of Life and Death and the Wheel of Reincarnation will not appear until Houtu establishes the cycle of reincarnation."

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan escaped from the underworld and used the supernatural power of "Universe in the Sleeve" to create a world that enveloped the gates of the underworld. He also asked Zhen Yuanzi to set up a large array to conceal his aura.

This is the benefit of having powerful beings present. If Zhen Yuanzi were not here, the fluctuations caused by simply opening the portal would attract countless powerful beings.

After thanking Zhen Yuanzi, Ji Yuan looked up at the sky:

"God is above!"

"I, Ji Yuan, feel that the spirits of the dead do not dissipate and have nowhere to go, thus only increasing their karma. Therefore, I have created a new realm on Longevity Mountain and established the Path of Ghost Immortals to provide a glimmer of hope for all spirits. Anyone with a conscious mind is welcome to come and join me."

After Ji Yuan became a Great Luo, he was able to sense the Heavenly Dao for some reason. As soon as he finished speaking, the Heavenly Dao stirred slightly, sensing that another Great Luo Dao had been added to the world, and immediately bestowed countless Heavenly Dao merits upon him.

Furthermore, an immeasurable aura of fortune is bestowed upon Longevity Mountain.

This is an act of enlightenment for all beings!
The unusual occurrence of heaven and earth naturally attracted the attention of many powerful beings.

Many powerful beings noticed something unusual on Longevity Mountain and then withdrew their gaze.

Upon seeing Ji Yuan's actions on Jin'ao Island, the Tongtian Sect Leader burst into laughter:

"Excellent! The people of our Jie Sect must have the courage to seize a glimmer of hope for all living beings!"

Upon seeing this, Laozi of Kunlun Mountain glanced at Xuandu and smiled slightly.

However, Yuanshi Tianzun showed a hint of surprise upon seeing Ji Yuan, thinking to himself, "Breaking free from these constraints, I wonder if it will bring me fortune or misfortune."

The Heavenly Merit continued to decline, far exceeding any previous time. Ji Yuan hurriedly stored it in his spiritual platform, as this merit could help him comprehend the Great Dao.

After collecting the merits, Ji Yuan fused several merits into the Soul-Summoning Banner, and then placed it in the small world. The primordial spirits immediately sensed the guidance from the darkness and headed straight for Longevity Mountain.

After doing all this, Ji Yuan summoned several human spirits from the underworld, empowered them with the Netherworld Emperor Sword, and told them to teach the way of the Ghost Immortal to future spirits.

As for Ji Yuan, he still has some important matters to attend to, and he certainly cannot travel in the underworld now.

After bidding farewell to Zhen Yuanzi, Ji Yuan summoned a beam of light and headed towards Buzhou Mountain.

……

Mount Buzhou connects heaven and earth, reaching from the boundless chaos above to the ruins of all living beings below. In the center, fierce winds blow continuously, making it difficult for anyone without a strong physical body to even stand on it.

At this moment, on the mountainside of Buzhou Mountain, a tiny human figure was fighting against a gigantic figure with nine heads, a human face, and a bird's body.

Without using any magical artifacts or supernatural powers, it was a pure physical clash, with only the booming sound of flesh colliding filling the world.
