Primordial Ancestor: Leading the human race into seclusion at the beginning

Chapter 142 The Second Earthly Saint Steps into the Chaotic World!

It was very quiet inside the Wuzhuang Temple.

Xuan Tian had only been inside for a short while when he saw Zhen Yuanzi under the ginseng fruit tree.

"Old friend, you didn't listen to me back then, and now you've perished and vanished, leaving me alone in this primordial world!"

"In the beginning of time, when heaven and earth were first created, my old friend was Hongyun, and I was the ginseng fruit tree. The breeze blew, and we were companions. How happy we were!"

"Relatives may grieve, others may sing, what can be said of the dead? Let my body rest with the mountains!"

"My old friend, you've fallen!"

Zhen Yuanzi did not wail or beat his chest in despair; his eyes, however, held an unyielding sorrow.
With the Earth Book by his side, he was so defensive that even a Heavenly Saint could not do anything to him. Ironically, however, he, who was known for his defense, was unable to protect his old friend when the great calamity came!

This had become a knot in his heart, making him depressed and listless, and he no longer had the will to cultivate.

Xuan Tian stood to the side, watching Zhen Yuanzi, who looked as withered as a ghost, without saying a word. He understood that the deep friendship between Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun seemed to transcend everything.

The fall of Hongyun was inextricably linked to Zhen Yuanzi.

Of the three thousand guests in Zixiao Palace, besides the Six Sages of Heaven, why was it that only Hongyun obtained that Primordial Purple Qi? Could it be that Dao Ancestor Hongjun favored Hongyun?

After obtaining the Primordial Purple Qi, if Hongyun stayed in the Wuzhuang Temple and remained secluded, Zhen Yuanzi's Primordial Ancestral Vein Array would naturally be able to protect him.

However, drawn by the Primordial Purple Qi, Hongyun stepped out of Wuzhuang Temple, ultimately exploding and perishing!
The fundamental reason for this is the close friendship between Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi.

The membrane of the primordial earth maintains the balance of the primordial world. In terms of importance, it is in no way inferior to the Reincarnation Underworld that Houtu transformed into. The Earth Book in Zhen Yuanzi's hand is transformed from half of the membrane of the primordial earth.

If Zhen Yuanzi could decipher the secrets of the Earth Book, he would become the Earthly Saint.

The Earth Book itself was Zhen Yuanzi's companion spiritual treasure. To comprehend the secrets of the Earth Book and become a Daoist Saint was nothing more than a natural outcome. However, Hong Yun tragically exploded and perished.

From then on, Zhen Yuanzi's Dao heart shattered, and he lost all desire to cultivate, becoming utterly despondent.

While pondering, Xuan Tian did not disturb Zhen Yuanzi, but simply cultivated on the side. With the time flow rate ten thousand times faster, ten eons passed in the blink of an eye.

"Wuzhuang Temple does not welcome guests. Fellow Daoist, please leave!"

Zhen Yuanzi had somehow woken up from his memories. He looked at Xuan Tian with a cold expression.

After his old friend Hongyun confessed to his death, he became heartbroken, cared nothing for anything, and refused to see anyone again.

"I have three requests for you. First, I would like to have you examine the Book of Earth in your possession. Second, I would like you to help me analyze the primordial earth veins and spiritual veins. Third, I would like you to help me set up this seed between the real and virtual worlds!"

Xuan Tian got straight to the point, stating his purpose directly: when it comes to sorting out the earth's veins and spiritual veins, no one in the entire prehistoric world can compare to Zhen Yuanzi.

Similarly, while sorting out the earth's veins and spiritual veins, seeds of the virtual and real worlds are also planted. When the earth's veins and spiritual veins of the primordial world are thoroughly sorted out, it will naturally be the time for the seeds of the virtual and real worlds of the primordial world to be planted and evolved!

"Fellow Daoist, I appreciate your hard work in cultivation. If you continue to make fun of me, then don't blame me for being impolite!"

Zhen Yuanzi's expression grew increasingly cold, and the Earth Book in his hand shone brightly, drawing upon the ancestral veins of the earth, indicating that he was about to make a move at any moment.

Although he was known for his defensive skills, he had always had a fiery temper, and what's more, the demands that Xuan Tian made were all too excessive.

The Earth Book is his companion spiritual treasure, and in terms of importance, it is even more important than his Daoist partner. There is no reason for him to lend it to others casually!
"Oh? What if we exchange it for this?"

Xuan Tian was not surprised to see Zhen Yuanzi in a fit of rage.

For a cultivator, a companion spirit treasure is like a wife. At this moment, his request to borrow the Earth Book is like asking someone to borrow his wife right after meeting them—no wonder they would agree.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a red gourd appeared in front of Zhen Yuanzi.

This red gourd was the one he obtained after slaying the Serpent Demon King; the Primordial Purple Qi within it had already been taken by him.

"This is... the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd? My old friend's magical treasure?!"

Zhen Yuanzi, who had been completely heartbroken, was suddenly roused when he saw the red gourd in front of him. His old friend had self-destructed and perished, leaving behind not a single possession.

This red gourd was a treasure I picked from the gourd vine, and it was also a companion to my old friend. It's a keepsake for him.

But, just as Zhen Yuanzi received the red gourd.

hum!
A true spirit resembling a red cloud slowly drifted out from the red gourd, startling Zhen Yuanzi. His previously lifeless eyes suddenly lit up with light.

"Truly miraculous, is this the true spirit of my old friend?"

Overwhelmed with excitement, Zhen Yuanzi's body trembled slightly, and his face was filled with a dreamlike ecstasy. The True Spirit is the most fundamental element of a cultivator's primordial spirit after their death.

After his old friend committed suicide, he went to the battlefield to try to find a trace of his friend's soul, but he found nothing.

Unexpectedly, I have obtained the true spirit of my old friend after his death. As long as I take good care of it, even if I cannot revive him, at least I will have something to look forward to!

Without hesitation, Zhen Yuanzi looked at Xuan Tian, ​​and his expression changed.

He bowed deeply, saying, "I cannot thank you enough. Please take this Earth Book and study it. After you have finished studying it, I will go and sort out the primordial earth veins and spiritual veins!"

As they spoke, Zhen Yuanzi's innate treasure, the Book of Earth, landed directly in front of Xuan Tian. Compared to his old friend Zhen Ling, even though it was an innate treasure, it was nothing.

“Good!” Xuan Tian took the Earth Book and immediately began to study it.

With his current cultivation level as a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, he had a commanding perspective and quickly deciphered and analyzed all the profound mysteries contained within the Earth Book.

"So that's how it is. After sorting out the primordial earth veins and spiritual veins, we will announce it to the primordial world, establish the Earth Immortal Palace, and confer titles upon the Mountain God and Water God."

As Xuan Tian murmured, a look of realization appeared on his face. If Zhen Yuanzi wanted to attain sainthood, he first needed to manage the earth's veins and spiritual veins. Then, he needed to create an Earth Immortal Palace and confer titles upon the Primordial Mountain God and Water God. You must know that there are countless mountains, rivers, and lakes in the Primordial World. Once conferred titles, the merit brought by stabilizing the Primordial Mountains and Rivers would be unimaginable. Attaining sainthood would be a natural outcome. Moreover, once Zhen Yuanzi attained sainthood, he would attain the second Earthly Dao Saint status. At that time, the entire Earthly Dao Origin would probably surge again.

Thinking of this, a look of joy appeared on Xuan Tian's face. Combing the earth's veins and spiritual veins, constructing a primordial version of the virtual and real world network, and even creating an additional Earthly Saint—the benefits were numerous!
"I have fully comprehended this Book of Earth. The key to attaining sainthood lies in sorting out the primordial earth veins and spiritual veins!"

Xuan Tian returned the Earth Book to Zhen Yuanzi and spoke calmly, a statement that startled Zhen Yuanzi.

The Earth Book was his innate spiritual treasure, and despite studying it for countless years, he still had not yet grasped its profound mysteries.

Unexpectedly, Xuan Tian in front of me only needed a short while to fully comprehend the Earth Book.

What incredible insight!
"Thank you for your guidance, fellow Daoist. Without further ado, I will go and sort out the earth veins and spiritual veins!"

Zhen Yuanzi was somewhat impatient; his old friend had previously revealed his own demise, leaving him heartbroken.

But now, with his old friend's spirit in his hands, at least there was a glimmer of hope. If he could thoroughly comprehend the Book of Earth and attain sainthood, perhaps there would be a chance of survival.

"This item is a seed of spiritual root, which can be placed within the nodes of earth veins to assist in the repair and evolution of earth veins!"

Xuan Tian took out countless seeds of the illusory and real worlds, all of which were condensed from the illusory and real compass over a long period of time. They were translucent blue, like the seeds of a strange spiritual root!

The boundary between the real and the virtual is of great importance, so there's no need to explain it so clearly.

With his current cultivation level, the area covered by the Seed of the Realm of Reality and Illusion that he has created is more than trillions of miles.

If all these seeds of the illusory and real realms were placed within the nodes of the earth's veins and spiritual veins, the combined coverage would likely be enough to encompass the entire primordial eastern continent.

"I will do my utmost!"

Zhen Yuanzi carefully accepted the Seed of the Realm of Illusion and Reality. The next moment, he stopped and immediately took the Earth Book and began to sort out the earth veins and spiritual veins.

If we compare the primordial earth veins to the blood vessels of the human body, and blood vessels are divided into main vessels, veins, capillaries, etc., sometimes the blood vessels in the human body will become blocked. Similarly, when Zhen Yuanzi is sorting out the primordial earth veins, he is completely unblocking the earth veins that were blocked by turbid qi and evil qi, so that the earth veins of the entire primordial world can form a whole, like a large net, unobstructed. As the Earth Book roared, the originally blocked earth veins were quickly broken open by a powerful force and resumed their smooth flow.

Everyone has their own expertise, and Zhen Yuanzi, holding the Earth Book, began to comb through the spiritual veins and earth veins at an astonishing speed.

At this rate, it would probably take less than ten thousand years to completely untangle the primordial earth veins and spiritual veins.

The primordial world was so vast that this speed was unimaginably fast. Even Xuan Tian himself knew he couldn't do it!
"The human race has a clan-protecting array and earth veins and spiritual veins. Zhen Yuanzi is currently sorting them out, and everything is on the right track. Next, it's time to head to the Chaos World and explore it!"

Xuan Tian murmured, "The chaotic world, whose origins far surpass the primordial wilderness, gave birth to three thousand chaotic gods and demons. The opportunities and treasures contained within it are naturally unimaginable."

A blade of grass growing in the chaotic world is a root of chaos, and a grain of soil in the chaotic world is fertile soil of chaos.

Of the three Netherworld treasures needed to evolve the Netherworld, the remaining two are also located in the Chaos World.

Of course, opportunities are often accompanied by dangers.

But don't forget, he has already attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal of Hunyuan, which is equivalent to a Great Dao Saint. The Chaos World is his true home ground.

Moreover, the Chaos Bell and the Chaos Azure Lotus Cauldron in his hands will be unrestricted in the Chaos World, and may even be able to unleash terrifying power belonging to the level of mid-grade Chaos spiritual treasures!
Thinking of this, a hint of anticipation appeared in Xuan Tian's heart. The next moment, he no longer hesitated and disappeared from the spot in a flash.

"arrive!"

Deep within the primordial starry sky, a figure shrouded in a hazy, clear light slowly materialized. This figure was none other than Xuan Tian.

Before him lay a colossal, boundless rift, seemingly cleaving the entire starry sky in two. Every moment, massive amounts of chaotic energy surged from this fissure into the primordial cosmos. Clearly, this was the astonishing crack left behind by the Great God Pangu when he cleaved the chaotic world. The aura of the Great Dao of Power lingered on it, preventing the chaotic world from healing itself for countless millennia.

Even though he had attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, Xuan Tian still felt his own insignificance after seeing the enormous crack that Pangu had created.

Before the great god Pangu, the stronger one is, the more one feels one's own insignificance.

"The world of chaos must lie within this crack!"

With a thought, Xuan Tian's Chaos Azure Lotus Cauldron hummed and transformed into an azure lotus platform, enveloping him within it. Furthermore, the Chaos Bell roared and unleashed boundless Chaos Mother Qi, firmly enveloping him as well. After making preparations, he no longer hesitated and took a step forward, directly arriving inside the enormous rift.

Dangdang Dangdang!
The scene before him changed, and Xuan Tian was now surrounded by endless chaotic energy.

Each strike emanated a terrifying power approaching that of a supreme treasure, continuously slicing through the Chaos Bell and the Azure Lotus Cauldron of Creation, producing bursts of metallic clanging sounds.

Even a Heavenly Saint would probably be unable to withstand it.

However, for some reason, as soon as he arrived in the Chaos World, Xuan Tian felt a sense of ease and comfort as the Chaos God and Demon bloodline within him circulated, as if this was the place that was truly suitable for him to live in.

It's like a fish that has come from the land to the sea.

But, just at this moment.

"Ok?"

An instinctive warning of danger arose in Xuan Tian's heart.

The next moment, amidst the churning chaotic air currents, a dark figure, exuding a terrifying and ferocious aura, charged straight towards him!
