Primordial: From a grain of soil to the ancestor of all paths

"Go back and cultivate now!"

"I hope this defeat will motivate you to strive harder and become even stronger in the future!"

After regaining his senses, Hongyuan gave instructions to the Four Sages of Heaven.

"is teacher!"

Taiqing and Jieyin Zhunti responded one after another.

Yuanshi didn't even reply to Hongyuan.

Strictly speaking, Yuanshi, who has already fallen into demonic possession, now belongs entirely to the true Heavenly Dao, not Hongjun's side.

"This guy!"

Hongyuan was dissatisfied, but he didn't show it.

He also needs to learn more about the demonic path through Yuan Shi, so as to know himself and his enemy.

Moreover, the immortality of Yuanshi as a sage of the Heavenly Dao is also the underlying logic of the Heavenly Dao.

Hongyuan, being merely an avatar of Hongjun, had absolutely no way to deal with Yuanshi.

Even now, he might not be able to suppress Yuan Shi in terms of raw power!

"Taiqing, you stay here. I suddenly remembered that I have something to tell you!"

Just as the Four Sages of the Heavenly Dao were about to leave Zixiao Palace, Hongyuan seemed to have thought of something and said to Taiqing.

"is teacher!"

Taiqing nodded, turned around, and stayed.

Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunti left Zixiao Palace and returned to their respective temples!

What are your thoughts on the matter of Yuanshi's descent into demonic possession?

After Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunti left, Hongyuan asked Taiqing.

“This is very bad!” Taiqing did not hide his thoughts and answered truthfully with a solemn expression: “I feel that he is no longer the Primordial One I know, but rather a ‘demon’ who has been possessed by another special consciousness that was born from him. I would call him the ‘Primordial Heavenly Demon’!”

"The resurgence of the demonic path must be related to the Heavenly Dao."

"This also means that Yuanshi, who has already fallen into demonic possession, is likely to become our enemy." At this point, Taiqing showed a pained expression, but his tone was more wary: "More importantly, Yuanshi Tianmo no longer has the cultivation limit of a Heavenly Dao Saint."

"In the future, he will become a true Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal (Dao Integration) realm being, and one of the greatest threats to our Heavenly Dao... no, to the Immortal Dao lineage!"

"In fact, I think that if we ignore it, the demonic path and the heavenly path behind the Primordial Demon are more likely to become our greatest enemies than Tai Chu and the others!"

Unlike Tongtian, Taiqing truly treated Yuanshi as a brother. Now that the latter has become his enemy, one can only imagine the pain he feels.

The threat behind the Primordial One made it even harder for him to truly relax!

“You’re right. Whether it’s the Primordial Heavenly Demon who is about to break through to the Hunyuan Taiji Grand Luo Golden Immortal (Dao Integration) Realm, or the Demonic Path and Heavenly Path behind him, they will become a major threat to us in the future!” Hong Yuan nodded, then his eyes flashed and he said, “That’s why we must have some countermeasures.”

"I plan to help you break through the cultivation limit, so that you can also become a true Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal. I will also use what I have already mastered to become an existence that can rival, or even defeat, the Primordial Heavenly Demon!"

"But can you bring yourself to attack the Primordial Demon?"

"This..." Upon hearing Hongyuan's last words, Taiqing hesitated for a moment, then his gaze immediately hardened: "My brother is Yuanshi, not Yuanshi Tianmo!"

"Although the Primordial Demon was born from the Primordial himself, he is still not the true Primordial."

"He has taken everything from the beginning, which only makes me resent him more!"

As he spoke, a strong killing intent surged in Taiqing's eyes!
If killing the current Primordial Demon didn't prevent the original Primordial from returning, and if I didn't currently lack the power to defeat him, I might have prepared to kill the Primordial Demon much earlier!

"However..." After calming down a bit, Taiqing looked at Hongyuan with some surprise: "Teacher, can you really help me remove the restrictions on my cultivation?"

Taiqing remembered that Hongjun had said before that he could only do this after he had mastered the complete power of the Heavenly Dao!
"Of course, but my current limit is that I can only remove the upper limit seal of one Heavenly Dao Saint!" It was not Hongyuan who answered Taiqing, but Hongjun: "You are my most promising, strongest, and most talented disciple!"

"Given your special relationship with Yuanshi, I decided to use this only opportunity on you!"

I hope you won't let me down!

Hongjun wanted to push everything onto Hongyuan so he could focus on refining the power of the Heavenly Dao.

But Yuanshi's possession of demonic possession caught him completely off guard!
Even though Hongjun believed he had mastered ninety percent of the power of the Heavenly Dao, he was not afraid of the Heavenly Dao, which only had one-tenth of its power left.

But that is the way of Heaven after all, so it's never a bad thing to be careful!
In fact, in Hongjun's mind, even if the Heavenly Dao only had one-tenth of its power left, it was still a greater threat than Tai Chu and the others who had defeated him several times!

Even if Hongjun is defeated by Taichu and the others, he can still be resurrected and become immortal!

In the beginning, they simply did not have the ability to completely kill him!
Once Hongjun has completely refined the power of the Heavenly Dao, he still has absolute confidence that he can completely annihilate Taichu and the others!
In contrast, the Way of Heaven is different!

Hongjun's ability to be immortal and indestructible comes from the Heavenly Dao.

Once the Heavenly Dao gains the upper hand, it will inevitably be able to erase his Dao-merging state, thus causing him to lose his immortality.

If he is killed then, he will truly perish!
Most importantly, once he leaves the state of merging with the Dao before fully mastering the power of the Heavenly Dao, all his cultivation and strength will drop to the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm!

At that time, any random Grand Luo Golden Immortal (Saint) would probably be able to easily suppress and kill him, right?
Therefore, just in case, Hongjun did not want to give the Heavenly Dao any chance to turn the tables!
Even Hongjun at this moment has no way to stop more primordial beings from becoming demonic.

The best course of action for him now is to do as Hongyuan said: remove the cultivation limit of Taiqing and help him become a true Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal (Dao Integration) realm being, thus greatly enhancing the overall strength of the Immortal lineage!

Furthermore, for some unknown reason, this last ten percent of the Heavenly Dao's will is exceptionally tenacious, and Hongjun has no chance of gaining anything in a short period of time!

In conclusion, Hongjun had no choice but to temporarily withdraw from the process of refining the will of Heaven and assist Taiqing.

"Thank you teacher!"

Taiqing quickly thanked Hongjun.

Even though he cultivates the Way of Non-Action, he still longs to enter the true realm of Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal (Dao Integration).

Only by breaking through to that realm can he better deal with the Primordial Demon and find a way to restore the latter to its original Primordial state!
"It doesn't matter!"

"This is also for the sake of the strength of our entire Immortal Path lineage!"

Hongjun shook his head, then began to channel the Heavenly Dao power he controlled into Taiqing's body, forcibly removing the upper limit of his cultivation! "Boom!"

At this moment, Taiqing seemed to "see" the three thousand "Heavenly Dao Chains" within his body rapidly breaking under the Heavenly Dao power poured in by Hongjun.

A series of immense forces, which only he and Hongjun could feel, reverberated within his body after each chain broke!

As time went by, one by one, the chains of Heaven shattered...

"It's done!"

After the last Heavenly Dao chain was broken, Hongjun withdrew the power of the Heavenly Dao.

"Thank you teacher!"

Taiqing once again expressed his sincere gratitude to Hongjun.

After all three thousand Heavenly Dao chains shattered, he could clearly feel his body relax, and he could also feel the loosening of his cultivation.

He had already spent a considerable amount of time at the peak of the Saint Realm, and he believed that after one or two more seclusions, he should be able to successfully enter the true Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal (Dao Integration) Realm!
"It doesn't have to be this way!"

"You will stay in Zixiao Palace from now on. I will explain to you the Dao of the Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal (Dao Integration) Realm, as well as the profound mysteries of the Three Thousand Heavenly Dao Laws at this level!"

"This should speed up your breakthrough to the Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal (Dao Integration) realm!"

Hongjun shook his head, then spoke to Taiqing.

"Yes!"

Taiqing nodded quickly.

With Hongjun's teachings and full assistance, it might not be long before he is able to truly enter the realm of Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal (Dao Integration)!
And so, Taiqing stayed in Zixiao Palace, preparing to break through to the next major realm with Hongjun's help!

Primordial chaos!

Following the Ksitigarbha incident, countless other deities also entered into seclusion.

As time went by, the combat power of the top beings in the primordial world became increasingly terrifying, and their strength became increasingly unable to keep up with the times.

They must also find a way to become stronger!
Cultivating the Three Thousand Heavenly Laws, proving one's Dao through a single Great Dao Law, mastering the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws and proving one's Dao through force, or even becoming a demon... these are all options for them to enhance their own power!

The primordial world has once again ushered in a rare period of peace!
Time flies, and hundreds of thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye!
One day!
Tianyuan Mountain!
"Ok?"

"Did something happen to Kong Xuan and Da Peng?"

Tai Chu, who was cultivating, seemed to sense something and frowned.

Kong Xuan and Da Peng were first his attendants, and later his disciples.

During the Investiture of the Gods, Kong Xuan and Dapeng volunteered to go to the prehistoric world for training, and they have not returned to this day.

Tai Chu could sense that their cultivation had improved considerably over the years, and that they had also found many opportunities of their own in the primordial world, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

But just now, he suddenly had a premonition that Kong Xuan and Da Peng were in big trouble.

If it's just a regular danger, then it's just a kind of training for them, and he won't interfere.

This time, Tai Chu could sense that if he acted recklessly, either Kong Xuan and Da Peng would perish, or something else irreversible would happen!
"I see!"

"It seems that even after all this time, Buddhism is still not behaving itself!"

"And this time it even involves the demonic path triggered by the Heavenly Dao?"

A moment later, Tai Chu surveyed the past, present, and future of the entire prehistoric world and instantly understood what had happened to Kong Xuan and Da Peng. His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he murmured to himself.

"Although this is still a bit like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, let me just do it for my disciple and send out one of my Great Dao clones!"

After a moment's thought, Tai Chu separated a avatar of the Great Dao and sent it to help Kong Xuan and Da Peng.

In fact, given Kong Xuan and Da Peng's cultivation levels, it was practically impossible for them to provoke any powerful beings.

Even if it is just a primordial avatar of the Great Dao, it is tantamount to "bullying the weak" to those beings who are currently harming Kong Xuan and Da Peng!
However, to stand up for his disciple, Tai Chu only used a avatar of the Great Dao to intervene, which was already considered very "merciful" of him!

at the same time!

At some point where the worlds of East and West meet!

"Humph!"

"Buddhism is truly shameless. It's one thing to try and steal our brothers' opportunities, but after beating the younger ones, they come at us with the bigger ones?"

Kong Xuan and Da Peng looked at the enemies opposite them and snorted and cursed with great disdain.

Not long ago, they found a pretty good opportunity here.

As soon as they put away their opportunity, a Buddhist disciple with near-saint-level combat power jumped out and twisted the truth, claiming that they had stolen his opportunity and demanding that they hand it over.

Kong Xuan and Da Peng refused, and a battle ensued.

Under the guidance of the Primordial Lord and through years of training, the brothers had long since surpassed the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm and entered the Supreme Great Luo realm!
Among them, Dapeng has mastered thirty kinds of Great Dao Laws, and Kong Xuan has mastered seventy kinds of Great Dao Laws. In addition, they also have their own innate supernatural powers and various opportunities, so they can easily defeat a Buddhist disciple who has just reached the level of a Quasi-Saint.

But little did anyone know that this Buddhist disciple was actually one of Maitreya's disciples.

His accident even attracted the attention of Maitreya!
After learning what had happened, Maitreya still firmly stood on the side of his disciple and demanded that Kong Xuan and Dapeng hand over the opportunity!
Kong Xuan and Dapeng naturally refused, and thus also engaged in battle with Maitreya.

Although Maitreya already possessed the cultivation and strength of a quasi-saint at its peak, Kong Xuan and Dapeng were not weak either.

In particular, Kong Xuan's "Five-Colored Divine Light," which he cultivated using the five elements, and Da Peng's "Yin-Yang Divine Light," which he cultivated using the yin and yang energies under Tai Chu's guidance, caused Maitreya a great deal of trouble.

Even more surprisingly, Kong Xuan and Dapeng's supernatural powers could cooperate with each other, briefly merging into "Seven-Colored Divine Light" and unleashing even greater power!
After a hard-fought battle, Kong Xuan and Da Peng, though seriously injured, ultimately defeated Maitreya.

As a result, Maitreya did not follow martial ethics and secretly summoned Bhaisajyaguru, as well as a group of top Buddhist masters such as Manjushri, Samantabhadra, Avalokiteshvara, and Krakucchanda!
Under these circumstances, Kong Xuan and Da Peng would naturally be no match for each other.

They then began to denounce Buddhism as shameless!
At the same time, Kong Xuan and Da Peng were also considering calling out the name of their master, Tai Chu!
After all, if we really compare backing, the entire Buddhist community is not even one ten-thousandth of the power of the Primordial Era!

Previously, both Kong Xuan and Da Peng were undergoing training, and they didn't want to use the name of Tai Chu to resolve crises they could handle themselves unless absolutely necessary! (End of Chapter)
