Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 5: Accepting the Three Pure Ones as disciples and passing on the principles of the Great Dao

Chen Xuan never dreamed that Pangu not only left the Xuanhuang Qi to him, but also engraved the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws on his own body.

Chen Xuan clearly remembered that the Jade Disc of Creation in Hongjun's hand recorded the laws of the three thousand great ways.

However, due to damage during the creation of the universe, it is now just a broken Chaos Treasure. The three thousand great laws engraved on it are also incomplete.

Even if it is not the complete Three Thousand Great Dao Laws, Hongjun can still use it to create a way to kill the three corpses.

Even when he preached in the Zixiao Palace and taught the countless creatures in the prehistoric world, he relied on the records in the Jade Disc of Creation.

And now that he possesses the complete three thousand great principles, doesn't that mean that he is more suitable to preach in the prehistoric world than Hongjun?

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Chen Xuan's lips, and at the same time he had made up his mind.

Immediately, he began to use the secret law to block the secrets of the heavens within a thousand miles of Kunlun Mountain. Even the way of heaven could not detect it.

This is just Chen Xuan's first contact with the secret law. If Chen Xuan can comprehend the secret law to perfection, even concealing the secrets of the entire prehistoric world will be a piece of cake.

As the secrets of heaven within thousands of miles of Kunlun Mountain were blocked, Chen Xuan naturally had nothing to worry about, and immediately spoke to the Three Purities.

"You don't have to call me Father God, because I am not Pangu reincarnated. To be more precise, your Father God Pangu is my elder brother."

"We were both born from the 108th-grade Azure Lotus of Creation. However, our responsibilities are different."

"Brother Pangu's responsibility is to open up the primitive world. And my responsibility as Taoist Qinglian is to protect this primitive world opened up by Brother Pangu."

"You are the incarnations of Big Brother Pangu's three souls of heaven, earth, and man. You are essentially Big Brother Pangu's children."

"Since you are Brother Pangu's children, you naturally have the responsibility to protect the prehistoric world created by Brother Pangu. It's a pity that your strength is too weak."

Learning of Chen Xuan's identity had already left Sanqing incredibly shocked. Finally, seeing Chen Xuan's disappointed expression, Sanqing couldn't help but feel guilty.

Finally, Tongtian said directly: "Uncle, from the time we transformed until now, we have been practicing with the inheritance in our souls."

"But after reaching the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, I could no longer advance even a fraction."

"Uncle, please teach us the method of cultivation so that we brothers can improve our strength as quickly as possible. So that we can be able to protect this world created by Father God."

As soon as Tongtian finished speaking, Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun also expressed their opinions. They hoped that Chen Xuan could teach them the method of cultivation and that they were willing to protect the prehistoric world.

Chen Xuan nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and then he said to the Three Pure Ones, "Since you are determined to protect the Great Desolation, I will accept you as my disciples today."

Hearing that Chen Xuan was willing to accept him as his disciple, Sanqing could not help but kneel down again and respectfully performed the ceremony of becoming Chen Xuan's disciple.

After the ceremony, Chen Xuan reached out and helped the Three Pure Ones to their feet. "Laozi, you are the leader of the Three Pure Ones, and you should be my first disciple. I now grant you the Coiled Dragon Crutch as a tool to prove your Dao."

"Yuanshi, you are my second disciple. I grant you the Three Treasures Ruyi as a tool for proving the truth."

"Tongtian, you are my third disciple. I grant you the Qingping Sword as a tool to prove your truth."

"The Coiled Dragon Bianguai is the lotus stem of the Green Lotus of Creation; the Three Treasures Ruyi is the lotus root of the Green Lotus of Creation; and the Qingping Sword is the lotus leaf of the Green Lotus of Creation."

"These three magic weapons were born as one, just like you three brothers. So from now on, the red stems, white lotus roots, and green lotus leaves, the Three Purities will always be one family." The Three Purities took over their respective instruments of proof of the Tao, and kneeled on the ground again to thank Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan then asked the three of them to sit cross-legged in front of him and began to preach the general outline of the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws, the Hunyuan Taoist Scripture.

"Qian, Kun, Kan, and Li, the combination of hardness and softness, the four encompassing each other, are called the Binglu. Two, four, three, five, and one are the essence of heaven and earth. The numbers twenty and eight correspond to the celestial symbols, meeting in the cauldron. The cauldron represents heaven and earth, the divine chamber. Qian and Kun are the Mingtang..."

As Chen Xuan preached the Hunyuan Dao Sutra, the sky suddenly became ablaze with flowers, and golden lotuses emerged from the ground. A garland of pearls descended from above, cleansing the souls and bodies of the Three Pure Ones.

This inevitably led the Three Pure Ones into a state of profound and mysterious enlightenment. In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years had passed.

The Three Pure Ones also found their own opportunity in the Hunyuan Taoist Scripture, and their cultivation level directly broke through to the early stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

The levels of cultivation in the prehistoric world are divided into twelve realms from bottom to top: human immortal, earth immortal, celestial immortal, mysterious immortal, golden immortal, Taiyi golden immortal, Daluo golden immortal, Hunyuan golden immortal, Hunyuan Daluo golden immortal, Hedao realm, Dao realm, and Dadao realm.

Below the Primordial Golden Immortal, there are four smaller realms: early, middle, late, and peak. Above the Primordial Golden Immortal, there are grades one to twelve, with grade twelve being the strongest.

In fact, in the ancient times, there were no so-called quasi-saints and saints, these two realms of cultivation.

It is because of practicing Hongjun’s method of beheading the three corpses that the so-called quasi-saints and saints came into being.

The so-called Quasi-Sage is equivalent to a Hunyuan Golden Immortal who took a shortcut. A Sage is also a weakened version of the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.

What Chen Xuan passed on was the serious laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos. Naturally, the Three Pure Ones would not embark on the path of beheading the Three Corpses, so what they achieved was of course the Golden Immortal of the Primordial Chaos, rather than a Quasi-Saint who was not worthy of being on the stage.

Within ten thousand years, the Three Purities' cultivation had broken through to the early stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, and Chen Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

And through these ten thousand years of preaching, Chen Xuan did not gain nothing.

When he transformed, Chen Xuan's cultivation was only at the early stage of Hunyuan Jinxian. That's why Luohou felt that Chen Xuan's cultivation was not as good as his own.

After all, Luo Hou's cultivation at that time had already reached the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm. He only needed a suitable opportunity to break through to the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm.

Although Chen Xuan's cultivation has not yet reached the peak level of Hunyuan Jinxian, it has already reached the late stage of Hunyuan Jinxian.

This inevitably made Chen Xuan secretly happy. After all, even if his cultivation level wasn't as high as those surviving Chaos Gods and Demons, he still had the power to protect himself in front of them.

At the same time, Chen Xuan discovered that Sanqing had slowly awakened from his enlightenment.

He then spoke directly to the Three Pure Ones, saying, "Master has mastered the laws of the three thousand great ways, and each of these laws can lead to the attainment of the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian."

"You should now understand yourselves and find the Dao law that suits you best."

"Remember, although you can cultivate many laws, there is only one main law."

"So if you make the wrong choice, even if you can achieve the status of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, that will be your end, and you will no longer be able to pursue higher realms."

After hearing this, the Three Pure Ones nodded to Chen Xuan at the same time. They closed their eyes again and began to comprehend the path of law that suited them best.
