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

Chapter 367 The Tragic Hongjun: Was I Deceived by the Heavenly Dao?

The power that Nuwa displayed was definitely bad news for Yuanshi Tianmo and Jieyin Zhunti!

Especially considering that she is an advocate for humanity and possesses the characteristic of immortality!
What the Primordial Demons found most difficult to understand was why Nuwa's humanistic blessing was comparable to Hongjun's acquisition of ninety percent of the Heavenly Dao's power.

It's impossible that she also refined 90% of the will of humanity like Hongjun, right?

The only explanation that the Primordial Demons could think of was that humanity had bestowed ninety percent of its power upon Nuwa!

Without the support of this powerful force of humanity, she would at most be able to fight Taiqing to a standstill, and would never have been able to defeat Taiqing as easily as she had just done!

Thinking this way, the Primordial Heavenly Demon and the others felt a little more at ease.

"Oh?"

"Did Fellow Daoist Nuwa resolve the issue of Taiqing in this way?"

Upon seeing this, Tai Chu nodded in realization.

But he wasn't too surprised by this!

"However, judging from his appearance, he doesn't seem to know that there's a problem with the ninety percent of Heavenly Dao Will that Hongjun refined?"

Tai Chu looked at the Yuanshi Tianmo, who had a look of shock on his face, and had some guesses in his mind.

In fact, he knew very well that Nuwa had only received one or two tenths of the power of humanity, yet she already possessed power comparable to Hongjun's when he received "nine tenths of the power of heavenly Dao"!
To be more precise, Hongjun only received one or two tenths of the power of the Heavenly Dao from beginning to end.

However, under the influence of the Heavenly Dao, including Hongjun himself and countless other primordial gods, they all believed that he had obtained ninety percent of the power of the Heavenly Dao!
Tai Chu originally thought that after the Primordial Demon became a demon, he should belong to the side of the Heavenly Dao and thus be able to know the truth. However, judging from the current situation, this is not the case.
The Heavenly Dao was worried that if the Primordial Demon knew, it would expose the secret. In His eyes, the Primordial Demon was just a small pawn and not worthy of knowing these things.

Regardless of the reason, the Primordial Heavenly Demon has already broken through to the Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal realm, and as time goes by, he will definitely discover the anomaly!
At that time, under the combined influence of various factors, Hongjun will gradually learn the truth.

"At that time, will Hongjun be completely desperate, or will he fight against the Heavenly Dao to the end?" Taichu was quite interested in how things would develop in the future.

"How Hongjun reacts to this is of little significance to us." After regaining his composure, Taichu had a new idea: "In comparison, we still need to find a way to become stronger as quickly as possible!"

Without a doubt, the Heavenly Dao possesses the power of a Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal, an existence that Tai Chu and the others cannot currently contend with!

Even if Nuwa's humanity and Houtu's earthly power were to be unleashed at their full potential, they would still be able to unleash this level of power.

However, if Nuwa and Houtu are not strong enough, it will be difficult for the human and earth paths to unleash their full power!

Rather than relying on the strength of others, Tai Chu also hopes to gain the power to be fearless!

"I hope I can prove myself as a Primordial Grand Luo Golden Immortal soon, and that Fellow Daoist Yang Mei can break through to the Primordial Taiji Grand Luo Golden Immortal level as soon as possible, take us to Daoist Shichen's Daoist temple, and successfully find the other half of the World-Destroying Millstone!"

Tai Chu couldn't help but think to himself.

Tai Chu has not yet truly attained the Dao of the Primordial Golden Immortal, but he already possesses strength far exceeding that of the Primordial Heavenly Demon. When he successfully attains the Dao through force, he will usher in a new transformation in strength!

In the process, he will also try to improve his other skills!
Perhaps at that time, he really will be able to briefly unleash the power of a Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal!

Another way to rapidly increase the power of the Primordial Era is to obtain the complete Chaos Treasure, the "World-Destroying Millstone"!
Now, the Great Millstone of Annihilation in Taichu's hands is only half a piece, so it is difficult to unleash the true power of this Chaos Treasure!
The other half of the world-destroying millstone, barring any unforeseen circumstances, will likely be located in the Daoist temple established by the Time Daoist and the Great God Pangu before they created the world.

Even if the remaining half of the World-Destroying Millstone is not in that dojo, there may still be other opportunities that can enhance the power of the Primordial Era!

However, opportunities often coexist with crises!
Before the creation of the world, Shichen Daoren was a genuine Hunyuan Wuji Jiluo Golden Immortal!
Even after so many years, the temple he established must still contain considerable risks!
Moreover, only Ancestor Yangmei currently knows the location of this training ground.

The latter is currently in seclusion, focusing all its efforts on breaking through to the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm of Hunyuan Taiji!

Only after successfully breaking through will Yang Mei lead Tai Chu and the others to the Daoist Shichen's dojo!
"These things can't be rushed!"

"The stronger Yang Mei is, the safer we will be."

"Moreover, it shouldn't be too long before he breaks through to the Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal realm."

“During the time he was in seclusion, I also hoped to make some preparations for going to the Taoist temple of the Time Master in the future.”

"Only then will I have a better chance to improve my strength!"

Thinking this, Taichu shook his head and stopped caring about it.

Zixiao Palace!
"how is this possible?"

"Taiqing actually lost to Nuwa?"

"Could it be that humanity, in order to determine the outcome of this battle, has truly temporarily bestowed ninety percent of its power upon Nuwa?"

Like the Primordial Demon King and Jieyin Zhunti, Hongjun also found it difficult to accept the fact that Taiqing had lost to Nuwa.

The current Taiqing may not be weaker than Hongjun in terms of actual strength.

Even he lost to Nuwa, so does that mean the latter is no match for Nuwa?

How could Hongjun, who was once Nuwa's teacher and has always been proud and arrogant, accept this calmly?
What Hongjun found most incomprehensible was that even without the blessing of humanity, Nuwa, with her many Dao clones and the blessing of the "Humanity Array," should not have been easily defeated by Taiqing.

Moreover, is this battle really that important that it's worth humanity giving her "ninety percent of its power"?
Clearly, at this moment, Hongjun also felt a slight sense of unease.

Unfortunately, Hongjun was the most crucial link in a certain scheme of the Heavenly Dao, and was also the most deeply affected by it.

Furthermore, even if Hongjun knew the truth, he might not be willing to accept it.

Therefore, he still doesn't know that his so-called refinement of 90% of the Heavenly Dao's will is itself highly problematic!
"I cannot fully grasp the remaining ten percent of the Heavenly Dao's will in a short period of time!"

"Currently, the only ways to quickly improve my strength are through methods such as Heavenly Dao Avatar and formations!"

After regaining his senses, Hongjun could only continue to focus on other means to improve his strength.

If these methods succeed, he is confident that he can temporarily raise his strongest combat power to the peak of Hunyuan Taiji Grand Luo Golden Immortal, or even to the limit of Hunyuan Taiji (Dao Integration) Realm, infinitely close to the level of Hunyuan Wuji Grand Luo Golden Immortal!

At that time, wouldn't he still be able to easily crush Tai Chu and the others?
Of course, this process must be fast.

Otherwise, given the growth rate of Tai Chu and the others, Hong Jun might not have been able to catch up!

"I'm sorry, teacher, I've let you down!"

At this moment, Taiqing, who had been resurrected, looked at Hongjun with a very unwilling and guilty expression.

This defeat was also a significant blow to him! "This is not your fault. It's because humanity inexplicably bestowed too much human power upon Nuwa; otherwise, she might not have been your match."

Having figured things out, Hongjun did not blame Taiqing. Instead, he comforted him, saying, "You have only just entered the realm of Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal."

"Once you've gone into seclusion to consolidate your realm and further refine your various techniques, your strength will undoubtedly become even greater!"

If nothing unexpected happens, Taiqing will become Hongjun's greatest help in the future.

Hongjun didn't want the former's mental state to be seriously affected by a single victory or defeat!

"Yes, thank you, teacher!"

After hearing Hongjun's words, Taiqing felt much better.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he frowned slightly and reminded Hongjun, "Teacher, I feel something is strange."

"This time, my disciple and Nuwa had only had a simple sparring session. Under the circumstances at the time, even if she had lost to me, it wouldn't have had a significant impact on her."

"Why would humanity bestow upon her 90% of its power in preparation for this victory or defeat?"

"Could it be that there are some secrets about this battle that we don't know about?"

Taiqing was not as deeply influenced by the Heavenly Dao as Hongjun, and he was not so easily bothered by the unusual humanistic power in Nuwa.

He also instinctively felt that there were probably some secrets involved that he could not even imagine!
Therefore, for the sake of the future, he had to remind Hongjun!
And perhaps, Hongjun can answer his questions?

To Taiqing's slight disappointment, Hongjun shook his head slightly after his reminder, saying, "I also have doubts about what you're saying."

"I haven't come up with a reasonable answer yet."

"The only reason that can be thought of is that humanity wants to take this opportunity to enhance Nuwa's prestige in the primordial world through you, so as to complete some of Her plans!"

"But whatever the purpose of humanity, all we need to do is continue to improve our strength!"

"Yes, teacher!" Taiqing hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

Although he always had a feeling that there was something wrong with this, Hongjun was right. If his strength was not enough, it would be useless to know more. If his strength was sufficient, he would be fearless no matter what the human world thought!
"Master, I will go back to stabilize my cultivation level immediately!"

After regaining his senses, Taiqing began to take his leave of Hongjun.

"Well, you go ahead!"

Hongjun also hoped that Taiqing's strength would be further enhanced, so naturally he would not refuse!
Not long after, Taiqing left Zixiao Palace and returned to Kunlun Taiqing Palace to cultivate in seclusion and stabilize his cultivation level.

After Taiqing left, Hongjun also entered a state of seclusion, continuing to try to refine the remaining ten percent of the Heavenly Dao Will while trying to improve his overall strength through other means!

In chaos!
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Taichu!"

"If it weren't for the help of you, Fellow Daoist Qinglian, and Fellow Daoist Houtu, I would never have been able to become the spokesperson for humanity, nor would I have gained the merits of the Great Dao and possess such strength!"

After defeating Taiqing, Nuwa came before Taichu and expressed her heartfelt gratitude.

Without the help of Tai Chu and Qing Lian to remove the Sage Dao Fruit from her body, Nuwa would still be a Heavenly Dao Sage and would never have the position of Human Dao Representative she holds today.

Nuwa also knew that the reason she was able to obtain the merits of the Great Dao was likely because of her acquaintance with Tai Chu.

In the battle between Nuwa and Taiqing, she was able to easily defeat her opponent in the end because Taichu had taught her the Dao without reservation in the past, which allowed her to greatly improve her cultivation strength through some methods derived from him!
Perhaps in the future, she will receive even more help from him!

Given all these circumstances, how could she not be filled with gratitude for the beginning?

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for that!"

“If you do not have the necessary conditions yourself, even with our help, you would not have achieved such success.”

"Moreover, helping you is also helping ourselves!"

Seeing this, Tai Chu shook his head indifferently.

He wouldn't expect Nuwa to be grateful or repay him just because he helped her in the past.

Tai Chu would be very satisfied if Nuwa could stand on his side in the future and fight against opponents such as Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao together!
"If you ever need anything in the future, I, Nuwa, will do everything in my power to help you!"

"I have only just become a spokesperson for humanity, and I still need to go back into seclusion to consolidate my realm and experience more of the mysteries of this realm."

"After I emerge from seclusion, I will seek out fellow Daoists for a proper discussion on the Dao!"

Nuwa didn't dwell on it too much, but smiled and kept the kindness of the Primordial Beginning in her heart.

If she has the opportunity in the future, she will definitely do everything she can to repay him!
"Ok!"

"Fellow Daoist, you should go back and go into seclusion first!"

Tai Chu didn't pay much attention to Nuwa's thoughts.

However, the fact that the other party remembered his kindness would surely bring him some comfort.

After all, if he really helped someone who didn't appreciate his kindness, even if Tai Chu didn't mind, he would still feel somewhat unhappy.

Soon, Nuwa returned to the Nuwa Palace, the Daoist temple she had built in the chaos when she was a Heavenly Saint, and entered a state of seclusion!
"Things are settled here, it's time for me to go back!"

Tai Chu didn't linger for long; with one step, he vanished from the spot.

"So much has happened this time, we should go back and think about it carefully."

After exchanging a glance, Jieyin and Zhunti returned to Mount Sumeru in the west to discuss their next steps in detail.

The beings of the primordial world were all discussing the various events that had occurred.

But they all gradually returned to their own lives.

The primordial world gradually returned to peace once more!
Time flies, and tens of thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye!
Tianyuan Mountain!
"Preventing all living beings in the primordial world from falling into demonic possession is truly a troublesome matter!"

One of Tai Chu's avatars murmured with some difficulty. (End of Chapter)
