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

For tens of thousands of years, besides his own cultivation and the acquisition of more techniques, Tai Chu has been trying to research ways to prevent other primordial beings from becoming possessed by demons, through Buddhist practitioners such as Maitreya the Medicine Master, who were previously brought to Tianyuan Mountain by Qinglian.

Tai Chu may seem quite busy, but he can completely alleviate his pressure by using his Dao clone.

Unfortunately, the results in researching methods to prevent other primordial beings from becoming possessed by demons were not ideal.

The essence of demonic possession is that the minds of the primordial beings have become disordered, allowing the demonic path to take advantage of their vulnerability.

But among the countless creatures in the primordial world, who can guarantee that their mind is perfectly pure?

It is precisely because this is a defect inherent in the primordial beings themselves that the initial attempt to research methods to prevent them from becoming demonic is somewhat less than ideal.

Of course, it's not like there's absolutely no way out!

Firstly, the higher the cultivation level of a primordial being, the lower the probability of it becoming a demon.

If one is in harmony with the Dao like Nuwa and Houtu, then with the full support of the Dao of Man and the Dao of Earth, one can naturally be immune to demonic possession.

Therefore, from this perspective, there is absolutely no need to worry that Nuwa will encounter any problems because of the demonic path.

Secondly, they sought a way to shield the demonic path from the influence of the primordial beings.

In this way, even if their mindset is flawed, they will not become possessed by demons.

But what method is there to protect countless creatures from the influence of demonic forces?
It's important to understand that the demonic path itself isn't scary; what's scary is that it has the support of the Heavenly Dao behind it.

The current primordial world is still within the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dao!

Thirdly, like Tai Chu and Qing Lian, they will follow the path of integrating the laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos and proving the Dao through force!
The more Great Dao Laws the Primordial Saints control, the lower the probability of them being influenced by the Demonic Path.

If one could master the three thousand laws of the Great Dao like Tai Chu and Qing Lian, then one could perfectly shield oneself from the influence of the demonic path.

Unfortunately, even with the constant demonstration of the superiority of proving the Dao through force by figures like Tai Chu, Qing Lian, and Ming He, the number of deities who choose to cultivate the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws is not large because the difficulty of this path is too high.

The number of primordial deities who, like Tai Chu, could control at least 3000 kinds of Great Dao Laws was even smaller.

This fourth method is also the most effective way to address both the symptoms and the root cause.

That is to make one's state of mind perfect, or to use some special methods to prevent any changes in one's mood.

And this is precisely the most difficult of these four methods!
“Cultivating the Three Thousand Heavenly Dao Laws, cultivating the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws, entering the demonic path…” Tai Chu and his thousands of avatars pondered together: “Perhaps I can integrate my various Great Daos into the Primordial World and let them cultivate my Dao?”

"In this way, I can use my power of the Great Dao to help all living beings in the primordial world shield themselves from the influence of the demonic path, and also enable them to comprehend the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws even in the primordial world!"

"At the same time, their cultivation will also help me become stronger!"

"However, in this way, their potential will never surpass mine, and this will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among Hongjun and the others."

"But as long as my cultivation level improves, their potential will also rise accordingly."

"With Hongjun and the others' current strength, they should not be qualified to stop me."

Simply put, the Primordial One intended to transform himself into an existence similar to the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.

After that, he will find a way to integrate the more than three thousand Great Dao Laws he has comprehended into the prehistoric world. Then the prehistoric beings can cultivate his own Three Thousand Great Dao Laws just like they cultivate the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws and the Three Thousand Heavenly Dao Laws!

Perhaps in the future he will even be able to create his own Dao-aligned beings and saints!
"Not bad!"

"This is indeed a good method. It can both shield me from the demonic influence that might affect the primordial beings and make my strength gradually become stronger."

"Once my strength increases, I will be able to in turn increase the strength of the primordial beings, thus creating a virtuous cycle."

"By then, I might become the so-called 'Lord of All Paths'!"

Tai Chu thought about it more and more and felt that his method was excellent. At least if the plan succeeded, the benefits to him would be immeasurable.

However, this is clearly not a simple matter, and he still needs to think it over carefully.

"boom!"

Just then, a powerful aura at the level of a Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal emanated from the depths of chaos, shaking the entire prehistoric world.

"This aura... belongs to Fellow Daoist Yang Mei?"

"Could it be that he has successfully completed his seclusion and broken through to the Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal realm?"

Upon sensing the familiar aura within that oppressive force, Tai Chu couldn't help but smile.

Once Ancestor Yangmei successfully breaks through to the Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal realm, it will not only mean that the overall strength of Taichu and the others will become stronger, but they will also be able to go to the Daoist Shichen's dojo under Ancestor Yangmei's guidance!

And this is what the Primordial Ones have been waiting for for tens of thousands of years.

As it turns out, the initial conjecture was correct!

"Ha ha!"

"I, Yang Mei, have finally returned to the realm of the Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal!"

Before long, the incredibly excited voice of Ancestor Yangmei came from the depths of chaos, resounding throughout the entire prehistoric world.

This caused shock and uproar among countless creatures in the primordial world!
"Has Ancestor Yang Mei also broken through to the Hunyuan Taiji Golden Immortal realm?"

"To be precise, he has returned to this level!"

"After all, Yang Mei, the ancestor who was once the Space Demon God, was originally a Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal!"

"If nothing unexpected happens, he may return to the realm of the Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal in the future!"

"By then, even the Heavenly Dao might not be able to deal with Ancestor Yang Mei, right?"

“There may not be any enmity between Ancestor Yangmei and the Heavenly Dao, but Hongjun once plotted against Ancestor Yin Yang and Ancestor Wu Xing during the struggle between Dao and Demon.”

"If it weren't for the fact that Ancestor Yang Mei was quite cautious, and that the spatial laws he had comprehended were very suitable for escaping, he probably would have perished long ago in Hongjun's scheme."

"Therefore, after Ancestor Yangmei's strength increases, he will definitely fight Hongjun to the death!"

"Moreover, Ancestor Yangmei helped Taichu and the others at a crucial moment during the Investiture of the Gods."

"If these people unite, I'm afraid Hongjun, unless he wages a protracted war, will have no way to deal with them, right?"

"I wonder what kind of mood Hongjun Daozu is in right now?"

"..."

Perhaps because of the successive breakthroughs of Primordial Demon, Taiqing, Taichu, and Nuwa, and because there have been so many shocking events over the years, the prehistoric deities, while somewhat surprised by Yang Mei's breakthrough this time, were not as shocked as they had been.

In contrast, they seemed to be enjoying the spectacle more.

After all, compared to them, the ones who would have the biggest reaction, or rather, feel the most terrified, when Yang Mei Patriarch broke through to the Hunyuan Taiji stage would definitely not be them!

Kunlun Mountains!
Yuxu Palace!
"Has Ancestor Yang Mei also broken through to the Hunyuan Taiji Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm?"

"I don't know if this is good or bad for us?"

"..."

The Primordial Demon frowned slightly and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Strictly speaking, there was no direct enmity between Ancestor Yangmei and the Heavenly Dao.

Even if he becomes powerful, the first person he will have to deal with will inevitably be Hongjun!
From this perspective, Ancestor Yangmei and the Heavenly Dao actually share a common enemy!
However, Yang Mei, the patriarch, is very close to Tai Chu and the others, and it is not impossible that he will stand on the opposite side of the Heavenly Dao in the future.

Moreover, his very existence is a potential threat to the Heavenly Dao!

However, currently, the only publicly known expert in the Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal Realm on the Heavenly Dao side is the Primordial Heavenly Demon.

Unless absolutely necessary, it is not appropriate for the Heavenly Dao to directly clash with Ancestor Yang Mei!
In fact, if we're really talking about raw power, the Primordial Demon believes he would be stronger than Ancestor Yang Mei.

Because the latter does not follow the path of integrating the three thousand great paths and proving the Dao through force, but rather the single law of spatial Dao!
In this way, even though Ancestor Yangmei also possessed some abilities such as creating clones, his overall strength was still inferior to that of the former Nuwa.

However, Ancestor Yang Mei cultivated the laws of space and was once a space demon god. If he wanted to run away, there were really few people of the same realm who could stop him.

A Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal who is always thinking about what is detrimental to his side is quite a threat to the Primordial Heavenly Demon and the Heavenly Dao!

This is another important factor that the Primordial Heavenly Demon is now reluctant to provoke Ancestor Yang Mei!
Taiqing Palace!
"Has Ancestor Yangmei also returned to the Hunyuan Taiji Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm?"

Compared to the Primordial Heavenly Demon, Taiqing's brows furrowed even more deeply.

For someone like him who still firmly stands on the side of Hongjun Daozu, Yangmei Laozu's breakthrough is definitely not a good thing.

Unfortunately, he doesn't have any good solutions to this at the moment!

"I hope that the teacher can gain full control of the power of the Heavenly Dao as soon as possible!"

Now that things have come to this, Taiqing can only hope for this in his heart.

Chaos, Purple Cloud Palace!

"hateful!"

"Even Yang Mei has reached this level?"

Just as many ancient deities had predicted, Hongjun's expression was not very good.

His current situation was already not good, and the fact that Ancestor Yangmei broke through to the Hunyuan Taiji Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm was like adding insult to injury for him.

"Fortunately, I have recently mastered some techniques for creating clones and the mutual amplification of the three thousand Heavenly Dao Laws!"

"If it were just Yang Mei, I wouldn't really need to take him seriously!"

Thinking about his progress over the years, Hongjun felt much more at ease.

His only concern was that Yang Mei would join forces with Tai Chu and the others.

Based on previous circumstances, this is very likely to happen!
"hateful!"

"Why did it become like this?"

"Why can't I refine that last 10% of the Heavenly Dao's will no matter what I do?"

Hongjun couldn't understand why he couldn't suppress the Heavenly Dao when he had already obtained ninety percent of its power.

How exactly does Heaven achieve this?

Hongjun believed that if he had already completely refined all the Heavenly Dao's will and obtained all the Heavenly Dao's power, he would have already dealt with Taichu and the others.

His situation wouldn't be getting more and more difficult like it is now!
However, since things had come to this point, there was no use in thinking about it anymore. He could only try to make himself stronger through various means.

Tianyuan Mountain!
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Yang Mei, on returning to the realm of the Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal!"

"Fellow Daoist, you only need to advance one more major realm to return to the peak state of Hunyuan Wuji Da Luo Jinxian!"

"Although you, fellow Daoist, have taken the path of proving your Dao through a separate spatial Dao Law, it seems that you are not much weaker than those of us who have integrated the three thousand Dao Laws and proved our Dao through force?"

After breaking through, Ancestor Yangmei went directly to Tianyuan Mountain.

Upon sensing his arrival, Tai Chu and the others immediately came out to greet him.

More importantly, they could sense that Ancestor Yang Mei's cultivation level was likely no weaker than that of the Primordial Heavenly Demon, Taiqing, and Nuwa back then!
Clearly, this is not the strength or power expected of someone who has attained enlightenment through a single, independent path of law.

"Ha ha!"

"I am originally a spatial chaos demon god evolved from the Great Dao of Space, so the laws of the Great Dao of Space are more suitable for me."

"If I were to forcibly cultivate the three thousand Great Dao Laws, it might actually be disadvantageous for me."

"Moreover, who said that cultivating the Three Thousand Great Daos and Laws requires the fusion of these Great Daos and Laws? Who said that one can only take the path of proving the Dao through force?"

"Fellow Daoist, did you select suitable elements from the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws and integrate them into your own Spatial Great Dao Law, thereby achieving a single Great Dao Law with strength comparable to the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws?" At this moment, Tai Chu seemed to understand something, and his eyes lit up as he asked.

Simply put, what Tai Chu and his followers pursued was the mutual integration of the three thousand Great Daos, ultimately merging them into a single Great Dao of Power!
The path taken by Ancestor Yangmei was to integrate all three thousand Great Dao Laws into the Great Dao Law of Space.

Although they seem to have taken completely different paths, they actually arrive at the same destination by different routes.

That is why, even though Ancestor Yangmei followed the path of a single law, he was not much weaker than those like Taichu who followed the path of fusing the laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos and proving the Dao through force.

In comparison, most of the other ancient deities were actually more suited to follow the path of Ancestor Yangmei.

This way, they only need to focus on their own unique Dao Laws and gradually integrate other Dao Laws into them.

This will naturally reduce the difficulty considerably!

If they forcibly attempt to integrate the laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos and prove their Dao through force, they may encounter unnecessary difficulties! (End of Chapter)
