Honghuang: I am Kuiniu, and I instructed Nuwa to create humans at the beginning.

Chapter 40 What Did I Do Again?
Yuanshi Tianzun was not unaware that whether it was Nuwa's enlightenment and becoming a saint, Laozi's enlightenment and becoming a saint, or even the Tongtian Sect Master's enlightenment and becoming a saint, they all relied on Niu Kui's guidance.

However, Yuanshi Tianzun did not think that without Niu Kui's guidance, the saint destined by heaven would not be able to attain enlightenment. He even went so far as to think that Niu Kui took the opportunity to divide the saint's merits of attaining enlightenment.

As for the mad Yuanshi Tianzun, Niu Kui ignored him and said to Laozi with a smile: "Senior Shangqing..."

"Fellow Daoist Niu Kui, you don't have to be so polite. Since you are on good terms with me, you can just call me brother. Or you can also call me fellow Daoist."

Niu Kui had never thought that Laozi would actually help him. His speed was even half a second faster than Tongtian Jiaozhu and Nuwa Niangniang. Now he even asked him to call him brother, which made Niu Kui feel a little strange.

But no matter if Laozi was being false or had other intentions, Niu Kui had to give Laozi this face, so he nodded and said, "In that case, Niu Kui will not be polite."

"But there is one thing I have to say. Otherwise, of the six saints destined by heaven, there will really be only five left in this prehistoric world."

While speaking, Niu Kui did not forget to point at Yuanshi Tianzun who was almost going crazy.

As Niu Kui reminded him, Laozi's eyes also fell on Yuanshi Tianzun, which made Laozi frown instantly. Because he actually found that a black gas was rising from Yuanshi Tianzun's body.

As a saint, Laozi naturally knew that Yuanshi Tianzun was showing signs of being possessed by a demon. If he didn't kill Yuanshi Tianzun's inner demon quickly, he would probably fall into the path of evil.

But for the moment, how could Yuanshi Tianzun eliminate his inner demons by himself? After all, no one else could help with this kind of thing. In desperation, he could only use the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda to cover Yuanshi Tianzun's head.

Use the energy of heaven and earth and the huge light of merit to stabilize Yuanshi Tianzun's mind, so as to help him stick to his original intention and kill the inner demon.

At the same time, Laozi did not forget to ask Niu Kui: "Daoyou Niu Kui, I wonder how I, your second brother, can keep my original heart and not be disturbed by the inner demons?"

At this time, Laozi believed that Niu Kui was the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao. Even Niu Kui forced Yuanshi Tianzun to this point in order to help Yuanshi Tianzun correct his original intention.

After all, as the elder brother, Laozi knew that Yuanshi Tianzun was too arrogant. And Yuanshi Tianzun's arrogance was not a good thing for him now or when he would become a saint in the future.

So at this time, Laozi not only did not think that Niu Kui almost forced Yuanshi Tianzun to fall into the devil's way. He even felt that this was Niu Kui instructing Yuanshi Tianzun to find an opportunity to prove his way and become a saint. However, the first step was to knock down Yuanshi Tianzun's arrogance.

If Niu Kui knew that I had come up with so many things in my imagination, he would definitely persuade me to write a novel. After all, being able to fill in the blanks in your imagination is definitely an indispensable ability for a novelist.

But Niu Kui didn't know what Laozi was thinking. Instead, he said, "Only by following the will of heaven and explaining the way of heaven can one know the true self. If you can't even keep your own heart, what qualifications do you have to teach the people and classify the creatures in the world?"

In fact, Niu Kui's purpose of saying this was to humiliate Yuanshi Tianzun. That's why Niu Kui brought up the teachings of the Chan Sect. What he meant was that if you, Yuanshi Tianzun, can't even keep your own heart, what qualifications do you have to divide the creatures of the prehistoric world into different levels and make them listen to your teachings?
Little did he know that as soon as Niu Kui said this, Yuanshi Tianzun, who had already had a demon in his heart, felt a sense of clarity in his mind. The next moment, he killed the demon in its infancy. Then Yuanshi Tianzun took a step forward and came to the top of Kunlun Mountain. He stood in the air, holding up the Three Treasures Ruyi in both hands, bowed respectfully, and then spoke.

"I am the authentic Pangu, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun. Now I realize that the roots of all living beings in the wilderness are different, so I want to establish a sect called Chan. My Chan sect adheres to the principles of following the will of heaven and explaining the way of heaven. I teach the creatures of the wilderness according to their different roots. I will use the Pangu Banner to suppress the fortune of my sect, and Chan sect will be established."

As Yuanshi Tianzun established the teaching, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the originally clear sky. Countless golden clouds of merit gathered in the air, and in the blink of an eye, a huge amount of heavenly merit descended from the sky.

The enormous merits of the Heavenly Dao were split into two in mid-air, and eighty percent of them fell on Yuanshi Tianzun.

The huge merits of the Heavenly Dao activated the merits of the Creation of Heaven in Yuanshi Tianzun's body, instantly refining the Hongmeng Purple Qi, allowing it to break through the bottleneck and achieve the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian in one fell swoop. Moreover, his cultivation level directly reached the sixth level of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

As Yuanshi Tianzun achieved the status of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, purple air came from the sky for 30,000 miles, flowers fell from the sky, golden lotuses emerged from the ground, and pearls poured down from the sky. The sounds of dragons and phoenixes were endless.

In the prehistoric times, countless creatures knelt on the ground at this moment, respectfully paying homage to Kunlun Mountain, and said, "Congratulations to the Jade Purity Saint for achieving sainthood."

Those mighty ones who had just returned to their own Taoist temples from Kunlun Mountain had to use their escape techniques again and head to Kunlun Mountain to watch the ceremony of Yuanshi Tianzun's enlightenment and sainthood.

As for Duobao Taoist and Zhao Gongming who were in Kunlun Mountain, they naturally knelt down in front of Yuanshi Tianzun. Although they were unwilling in their hearts, they could not bear the huge pressure brought by Yuanshi Tianzun's enlightenment.

Even under the pressure of the saint, Niu Kui had to kneel down slowly. Seeing that Niu Kui was about to kneel in front of Yuanshi Tianzun, the two percent of Tiandao merit suspended in the air also fell down. It landed on Niu Kui without bias.

As the merits of the Heavenly Dao fell, Niu Kui's body was inevitably radiating with golden light of merits, which actually offset the pressure from Yuanshi Tianzun's attainment of the Dao and becoming a saint.

Although these two Heavenly Dao merits did not allow the divine flower of Niu Kui's three flowers to bloom, they also prevented Niu Kui from kneeling to Yuanshi Tianzun at this time. More or less, it also won some face for Niu Kui.

However, this did not make Niu Kui happy. He even felt extremely regretful. "Why am I so rude? Why did I have to use the teachings of the Chan Sect to mock Yuanshi Tianzun? Wouldn't it be nice to watch him fall into the devil's way? Now, he has achieved enlightenment and become a saint?"

Thinking of this in his heart, Niu Kui couldn't help but shake his head.

Little did he know that every move of Niu Kui was seen by me.

This inevitably made Laozi start to think about it again, "Why did Daoist Fellow Niu Kui shake his head? Could it be that the process and method of my second brother's attainment of the Dao and becoming a saint did not satisfy Daoist Fellow Niu Kui?"
