Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 231 The Third Generation First Disciple of the Holy Lotus Sect

Human race, capital city. After Dayu completed his merits, he did not stay in the position of leader of the human race for long.

Compared to becoming the leader of the human race, Dayu hopes to go to the human world and pursue the great way.

If the position of the common leader of the human race was not of great importance and could not be abdicated at will, Dayu would have fled long ago.

In order to select a new leader for the human race, Dayu followed the example of several previous leaders and assessed the respected people in the human race.

After numerous tests, two people finally stayed, one was Qi, the son of Dayu, and the other was Bo Yi, Dayu's right-hand man when he was controlling the flood.

Dayu was well aware of his sons' talents and good character, but in comparison, Dayu trusted Bo Yi, who worked with him to control the flood, more.

Bo Yi had great talent and could be considered a capable minister in governing the country.

Therefore, Dayu finally decided to abdicate the throne of Emperor Xia to Boyi, who had assisted him in flood control. Then he went to the Huai River to unlock the seal of the Nine-Character Mantra left by Wu Dang. After that, it depended on when Wuzhiqi could accumulate the magic power to break the seal.

After doing all this, Dayu went to the human world.

However, Dayu never expected that Bo Yi, a talented and capable minister, would be indecisive and hesitant after becoming the leader of the human race. Seeing that the leader was so mediocre, the people below also began to be perfunctory.

A hundred years after Bo Yi took the throne, the human race did not become more prosperous, but declined instead.

Dayu's son Qi couldn't stand it anymore, so he led the powerful people who supported him to compete with Bo Yi for the position of the common leader of the human race.

The two sides have been fighting for several years, and Qi was definitely at a disadvantage at the beginning. After all, Bo Yi is the leader of the human race, and the resources he can control are not comparable to Qi's.

But as time went on, Qi's power grew stronger and stronger. With the support of everyone, Qi won the final victory and became the new leader of the human race.

After Qi seized the position of leader of the human race, he indeed did much better than Boyi, and the human race regained vitality under Qi's leadership.

However, the good times did not last long. Qi reigned for only 500 years before he suddenly announced the establishment of the Xia Dynasty. From then on, his descendants became the emperors of the Xia Dynasty.

Qi's decision shocked the world. No matter how many people opposed it, Qi turned a deaf ear and forcibly pushed forward the establishment of the Xia Dynasty.

In the end, Qi succeeded, and the first dynasty of the human race, the Xia Dynasty, was established! This marked the beginning of a new era for the human race! From the abdication system, it became a family dynasty.

In the holy temple of the human race in Shouyang Mountain, the ancestral land of the human race, the destiny of humanity is roaring. The establishment of the Xia Dynasty made the destiny of humanity stronger, but the change from the abdication system to a family dynasty caused the destiny of humanity to decline.

Before the three ancestors of the human race could react, feedback suddenly came from the humanity in the mortal world. Humanity actually recognized the family dynasty, but at the same time, Goddess Nuwa also gave the Human Emperor of the family dynasty a shackle, that is, the Human Emperor's highest level of cultivation should not exceed that of a celestial being, and once his cultivation level breaks through that of a celestial being, he must abdicate and give way to others.

Nuwa Niangniang did this to prevent the throne of the emperor from becoming the property of one person.

In addition, Nuwa also consulted with the underworld to redefine the lifespan of the acquired human race below the level of earth immortals.

There are currently two methods of practice for cultivators below the level of Earthly Immortals. One is derived from the "Human Ancestor Sutra" taught to the human race by Bai Jing, which is divided into four realms, namely refining essence into Qi, refining Qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into harmony with the Tao. After refining emptiness and merging with the Tao, one can begin to comprehend the three ways of the great heaven, earth and man and achieve the status of Earthly Immortals.

The other is the golden elixir path that Laozi taught to the acquired creatures.

There is no essential difference between the Golden Elixir Avenue and the Avenue derived from the "Human Ancestor Sutra", except that the Golden Elixir Avenue divides the levels of cultivation more carefully.

The two have different paths but the same destination. When one reaches the pinnacle of cultivation, one will begin to comprehend the three principles of heaven, earth and man, and become an earthly immortal.

For the acquired human race below the Earth Immortals, those who are unable to practice cultivation have a lifespan of 300 years, those who refine essence into qi have a lifespan of 800 years, those who refine qi into spirit have a lifespan of 2,000 years, and those who refine spirit into emptiness have a lifespan of 10,000 years.

As for refining the void and merging with the Dao, for those who can cultivate to this level, with the prosperity of the three paths of heaven, earth and man in the prehistoric world today, it is a natural thing for them to become earthly immortals, so their lifespan is the same as that of earthly immortals.

After Nuwa and the underworld established new rules on lifespan, they no longer cared about the affairs of the Xia Dynasty.

A thousand years later, the first emperor Qi died and was succeeded by his son. Thus the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors officially came to an end.

The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors returned to their positions, all the calamities of the ancient times receded, and everything became peaceful and calm.

On Yingzhou Fairy Island, Bai Jing, who was in seclusion to comprehend the gains from the battle with Daozu, slowly opened his eyes.

"The era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors has come to an end. The five great treasures of humanity, the Kongtong Seal, the Fuxi Harp, the Shennong Cauldron, the Xuanyuan Sword, and the Jiuzhou Cauldron, are suppressing the destiny of the human race. Now, the destiny of the human race is as stable as Mount Tai. We don't have to worry about being coveted by the saints!" Bai Jing thought in his heart.

Bai Jing was quite satisfied with the great rise of the human race this time. First of all, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race were not suppressed by the intimidation of the saints and entered the Fire Cloud Cave to suppress their luck.

Secondly, the fate of the human race is always in their own hands, and humanity is never alone! The future Conferred God Tribulation can also be planned in advance!

Last but not least, Bai Jing helped the human race become the protagonist of heaven and earth by purifying the sea of blood. Later, he and Nuwa planned to replace all living beings with the human race through the Battle of Zhuolu. He used the luck of the human race to revive humanity, allowed Nuwa to complete the harmony of Dao, opened up the human world, and gave everyone including Bai Jing a way out.

Now that the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors has come to an end, it is time to plan for the Conferred God Ceremony.

Bai Jing thought about it and called Kong Xuan.

Kong Xuan's current cultivation has reached the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal. It will be of no benefit for him to keep practicing. It just so happens that Bai Jing also wants Kong Xuan to leave Yingzhou Fairy Island and accept a demon as his disciple.

"Take in a disciple? Master, why do you suddenly want me to take in a disciple?"

"Master just calculated that this monster has a connection with you."

After hearing this, Kong Xuan didn't ask any more questions and agreed.

Bai Jing said goodness, raised his hand and sent the information of the disciple he wanted Kong Xuan to accept into Kong Xuan's sea of consciousness, "Kong Xuan, Qinglin will go with you when you leave the island this time! Its cultivation has been stuck at the peak of the Golden Immortal for several epochs, and it's time to find a way to break through."

Kong Xuan nodded in agreement, and that afternoon he rode Qinglin to leave Yingzhou Fairy Island.

Kong Xuan came to a fairy mountain according to the instructions given by Bai Jing. The mountain had cliffs thousands of feet high and was filled with spiritual energy. It was indeed a great place for immortals to practice Taoism.

Kong Xuan and Qing Lin walked on the mountain path, looking for Yuan Hong.

Yes, the disciple that Bai Jing asked Kong Xuan to accept was Yuan Hong. Yuan Hong was a white ape from the ancient times. His roots were the Tongbei Ape, one of the Four Mischievous Monkeys, who shined during the Conferred God Period.

Kong Xuan and Qing Lin wandered in the mountains for several hours. When they reached the top of the mountain, they noticed at the same time that there was a strange white ape on the mountain, along with a centipede spirit, a wild boar spirit, a wild buffalo spirit, and a wild dog spirit, breathing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The white ape had the highest cultivation level, reaching the peak of the Xuanxian level. The rest of the wild dog spirits, wild boar spirits, and buffalo spirits were only at the level of True Immortals.

Yuan Hong led the other monsters to breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, then said hello and dispersed. Yuan Hong then looked around and saw that no one was around, so he quietly slipped into the cave and began to practice the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills.

The Four Monkeys of Chaos were transformed from the origin of the Chaos Demon Ape. They were creatures outside the Six Paths of Paths. As long as they practiced, they would naturally learn the supreme magical powers between heaven and earth.

Yuan Hong is a man of top talent. He stole magical powers and immortal techniques from nowhere and actually mastered the Xuanmen protective magic skill, the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

The Eight-Nine Profound Art is a physical training technique derived from the Nine-Turn Profound Art. Bai Jing obtained it from Tongtian. He was not interested in this technique. After all, the abridged version could not be as powerful as the original one!

But the method to subdue Yuan Hong this time is to rely on the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

In the cave, Yuan Hong was practicing the Eight-Nine Profound Art with a happy smile on his face.

"This method is wonderful, very wonderful. It won't be long before I can attain the Golden Immortal." A glimmer of expectation flashed across Yuan Hong's eyes. The Five Qis Converge to Origin is the Golden Immortal. The Golden Immortal is immortal and can live forever.

Even though his real name was still in the Book of Life and Death, at least he didn't have to worry about his life span.

Thinking of this, Yuan Hong suppressed his inner throbbing and continued breathing.

Suddenly, Yuan Hong's pupils shrank, he stopped practicing and looked outside the cave.

Just now his intuition told him that there seemed to be someone spying outside the cave, but after a careful check, Yuan Hong did not find anyone.

Although he found nothing, Yuan Hong felt increasingly uneasy because his intuition had never been wrong.

Yuan Hong became extremely alert. He had warned his brothers before that no one was allowed to disturb them during their retreat, so the person who came must be an outsider.

Then Yuan Hong concentrated all his magic power at one point, ready to attack at any time.

"Brother, looking at his posture, could it be that he has discovered us?" Qinglin asked in surprise.

How could a mere Xuanxian possibly discover them?
Kong Xuan was also a little surprised, but he changed his mind and thought about the message his master left in his mind, saying that this white ape was transformed from part of the origin of the Chaos Demon God. With such a background, it is understandable that it has some magical powers.

"In that case, let's just go in!" After saying that, Kong Xuan appeared and walked into the cave, with Qinglin following closely behind him.

When Yuan Hong saw that someone really appeared, he suddenly launched a powerful attack. It was so powerful that sand and rocks flew everywhere. It would be no problem for him to kill an ordinary Xuanxian in seconds.

However, Yuan Hong's full-strength attack was directly dispersed by Qinglin who raised his claws and waved lightly.

"With this level of strength, you're still far from learning how to launch a sneak attack!" Qinglin said with disdain.

Yuan Hong was extremely perceptive. He saw that Qinglin didn't even use his magic power, but easily broke his full-strength attack with just his physical strength. He immediately realized that these two people were not people he could afford to provoke.

Yuan Hong immediately changed his expression, stood up, bowed and said respectfully: "Just now I thought it was an enemy who came, I am sorry for the offense, please forgive me, the two immortals."

"You are quick-witted, well-grounded, and flexible. You are a talent. It is not bad for you to be my disciple." Thinking of this, Kong Xuan said expressionlessly, "You are Yuan Hong from Meishan, right?"

After hearing this, Yuan Hong was slightly stunned and asked quickly: "How did the immortal know the little demon's name?"

Kong Xuan's face straightened up, his expression became serious, and a five-colored divine light flashed in his eyes, carrying an unparalleled murderous aura that enveloped Yuan Hong: "Yuan Hong, you are so bold that you stole the supreme immortal method of Xuanmen. You know that you have committed a capital crime!"

Even though Kong Xuan's cultivation was at the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal Realm, even a tiny bit of his aura leaked out, it almost suffocated Yuan Hong.

He trembled all over and said, "Your Majesty, you are wronged! I am just a mere Xuanxian. How can I steal the Xuanmen Immortal Technique?"

"Then where did you get the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills that you just practiced?"

Yuan Hong was completely stunned, and quickly explained: "What is the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill? This is something I accidentally realized when I was absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon."

Kong Xuan took out the original Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill and threw it in front of Yuan Hong. "You said you figured it out yourself, so what is this?"

Yuan Hong quickly flipped through it and saw that the records were exactly the same as the magic he was practicing. He couldn't help but open his mouth wide, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"This, how could this happen?" At this moment, Yuan Hong's face turned pale and he began to doubt himself.

Seeing this, Kong Xuan said loudly: "You stole the supreme immortal method of Xuanmen. Today I will give you two choices."

"May I ask, Immortal, what is the choice?" Yuan Hong asked hurriedly, as if a drowning man had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"First, I will send you to the Xuanmen. According to the rules of the Xuanmen, your cultivation will most likely be abolished, your memory will be erased, and your soul will be banished to a place of no return, where you will never be able to reincarnate."

The more Yuan Hong listened, the paler his face turned. His whole body began to tremble and he almost fainted from fright.

"May I ask the Immortal, what is the second option?" Yuan Hong asked hurriedly.

"The second option is to join the Holy Lotus Sect and become its disciple. The Holy Lotus Sect has always been on good terms with the Xuan Sect, so it won't be a problem for them to protect you. You can even continue to practice the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts."

"Holy Lotus Sect!" Yuan Hong's eyes suddenly showed surprise. The Holy Lotus Sect was actually willing to accept him as a disciple. This made Yuan Hong feel like a pie in the sky.

So Yuan Hong said without hesitation: "The second one, I choose the second one."

After saying this, before Kong Xuan could continue speaking, Yuan Hong immediately kowtowed, fearing that Kong Xuan would regret it: "Disciple Yuan Hong, I pay my respects to the Master."

Kong Xuan nodded in satisfaction, and sent out a magical power to lift up Yuan Hong, and then said: "I am the eldest disciple of Saint Bai Jing of the Chaos Blue Lotus lineage, Kong Xuan. From now on, you will be the third generation disciple of our Holy Lotus Sect."

"The teacher is actually..." Yuan Hong's eyes flashed with great shock. He knew Kong Xuan was from a prominent background just by looking at his aura. But Yuan Hong could never have imagined that his master was actually the legendary eldest brother of the Holy Lotus Sect.

Although Yuan Hong was cultivating in Meishan and didn't care much about worldly affairs, he also knew that the name of the eldest brother of the Holy Lotus Sect was very famous. Not to mention other things, just the story of Kong Xuan defending the Saint Zhunti in the Sea Eye was already known to everyone in the prehistoric world! This master is so worth worshipping!

Kong Xuan was very satisfied with Yuan Hong's respectful attitude. He smiled and said, "This Eight-Nine Mysterious Art is a simplified version of a supreme immortal art that was deleted by Xuanmen. You should practice it first. When you achieve Daluo, I will personally ask the saint to teach you the complete version."

Yuan Hong danced with joy, ecstatic, and kowtowed to Kong Xuan: "Disciple, thank you for your guidance, teacher."
