Primordial Era: I, Ksitigarbha, shall be the Supreme Being of the Primordial Era.

Di Jun, however, was quite shrewd. He waved his hand to suppress Taiyi and then said to Bai Ze, "Fellow Daoist, you may not know this, but my brother and I are focused on cultivating in peace and have no desire to get involved in karma."

Moreover, my brother is far away on the Sun Star, so he has no influence over the Eastern King!

Upon hearing this, Bai Ze immediately became anxious, "Does Your Majesty understand the principle of 'if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold'?"

"How so?"

"If the Eastern King Duke were to unify the prehistoric world, would he still allow the divine to reside high on the Sun Star?"

Know that all land under heaven belongs to the king; once he attains a high position, his ambition will inevitably swell, and at that time, the endless starry sky will surely become his target!

"This..." Upon hearing this, Di Jun's heart wavered.

Seeing this, Bai Ze continued to persuade, "As far as I know, the two of you have a grudge against the Eastern King Duke over a treasure, and the Eastern King Duke is a vengeful person. You two will inevitably have to fight with him again in the future!"

"But once the Eastern King Duke has fully consolidated his power, will the two deities still be able to defeat him?"

"I possess the supreme treasure, the Chaos Bell; how could I possibly lose?"

Taiyi gave a dismissive scoff.

"Though the treasure is powerful, there is only one, and its power is finite. If the Eastern King Duke were to act like a villain, using numbers to fight against fewer, even the two holy beings would be no match for four hands!"

"This..." Taiyi was speechless.

Bai Ze continued his relentless attack: "Do the two deities know why the Eastern King Duke is in such a hurry to recruit people and unify the prehistoric world?"

"Why?" X2

"To prove the Way and transcend you!"

"Really?" Di Jun suddenly stood up and asked Bai Ze.

Bai Ze nodded and said, "During the Dragon-Han Great Tribulation, the three powers stood in a tripartite balance, constantly fighting each other, all for the sake of destiny. The way of destiny is mysterious and profound. It is said that when destiny reaches its peak, one can absorb destiny into one's body and transcend the three paths, achieving liberation."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jun paced back and forth in the palace. To be honest, he was tempted!

What is the purpose of spiritual practice? Isn't it to achieve transcendence? Now that the opportunity is right in front of us, if we don't seize it, what's the point of practicing?

But after thinking it over, Di Jun expressed his concern: "The Eastern King has been operating in the prehistoric world for a long time, this..."

"Holy Lord, do not worry. At this time, the Eastern King Duke is in a state of great wrath and resentment, and many fellow Daoists are avoiding him."

I have come here at the request of my fellow Daoists to invite the Holy One to enter the Primordial World. We are willing to assist the Holy One and be the sharp sword in His/Her hand!

Emperor Jun was overjoyed upon hearing this, "Excellent! Since you are all so eager, how can I abandon you all?"

"Taiyi, would you be willing to enter the primordial world with me?"

"Taiyi is willing to assist his elder brother in conquering the primordial world!" Taiyi replied resolutely upon hearing this.

"Very well, in that case, let's venture into the primordial wilderness and test the Eastern King's abilities!"

A moment later, three streaks of light flew out from the Sun Star and crashed straight down onto the primordial earth.

……

On Mount Sumeru, Ksitigarbha, having settled all the spiritual beings, slowly stretched.

For the past few centuries, aside from his usual cultivation, he has devoted all his time to placing spiritual objects.

Looking at Mount Sumeru now, it is much better than it was before the Eastern King Duke visited.

The place is filled with spiritual energy, with celestial birds flying and mythical beasts frolicking. It can truly be considered a top-notch blessed land.

Little White would also occasionally run around playing, either catching birds or chasing beasts. In just over a hundred years, he became the tyrant of Mount Sumeru.

Ksitigarbha would occasionally gather some spiritual fruits to feed Xiaobai, but unfortunately, Xiaobai was just an ordinary spiritual beast, and its cultivation progressed slowly.

Back at the thatched hut, Ksitigarbha played with Little White for a while before sending Little White away, and then sat cross-legged to cultivate.

Over the years, he has made some progress in his cultivation.

When he absorbed the essence of the innate pure yang spirit mushroom, a trace of pure yang essence appeared in his body. With the help of this essence, he was able to master the Golden Body Technique.

Now that he has attained the other shore of enlightenment and possesses the Golden Body Technique, Ksitigarbha plans to cultivate the Soul Chasing and Soul Capturing Techniques to give himself a trump card.

These two methods are very compatible with the path of Nirvana that he has come to understand. Ksitigarbha also intends to combine the three to form his own unique means of attack.

Time flies like an arrow, frost withers the summer green, and the primeval years are the least valuable.

Three thousand years passed in the blink of an eye. In the primordial world, Di Jun and Tai Yi conquered dozens of races with their strength and gradually began to rival Dong Wang Gong.

Ksitigarbha also awakened from his enlightenment and is now searching for suitable experimental subjects in the western lands.

He spent three thousand years cultivating the Dao. The first fifteen hundred years were spent creating supernatural powers, and the next fifteen hundred years were spent consolidating his foundation so that his entry into the Xuanxian realm would be more natural.

Now that he has awakened, he wants to test his supernatural powers as soon as possible.

After searching for decades in the Western lands, Ksitigarbha finally found a suitable test subject.

It is a monstrous beast, Fei Yi, corrupted by demonic energy and ravenous in its bloodlust.

Judging from his cultivation level, he also possesses the cultivation of a true immortal, but due to the influence of demonic energy, even a Xuanxian (a high-level immortal) would probably have to detour around him.

Without fear, Ksitigarbha leaped and charged towards the fat man.

Once he got close, he first activated the Crimson Jade Cloud Pattern Robe, then placed the Three Lives Stone on his head, and then unleashed his magical power.

A beam of light shot out from Ksitigarbha's hand and struck the Fei Yi's body in the blink of an eye.

That fat relic had no consciousness; it was driven solely by the murderous and devouring will in its mind.

Upon discovering Ksitigarbha, one could only hear him hiss as his two bodies slapped together in the void, creating ripples.

Then, it rushed towards Ksitigarbha, attempting to swallow him whole.

Upon seeing this, Ksitigarbha dared not be negligent and instantly used the "One Thought to the Other Shore" technique.

Fei Yi was fast, but Ji Zang was not slow either. Fei Yi opened its huge mouth and took a bite, swallowing only a mouthful of magical petals.

Ksitigarbha had already appeared behind Fei Yi, silently chanting, then pointed his finger at Fei Yi's body, and a point of spiritual light immediately appeared.

The light appeared to be moving extremely slowly, and it seemed unlikely that it could hit Fei Yi.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the spiritual light had already adhered to a section of the body of the demon beast Fei Yi.

"Imperial Edict!"

With a soft shout from Ksitigarbha, the spiritual light instantly transformed into a black hole, absorbing all the surrounding light and spiritual energy.

The monstrous beast Fei Yi was slow to realize what was happening. By the time it reacted, its body had already vanished into nothingness, without even a drop of blood flowing out.

This is the Great Annihilation Technique, a divine power created by Ksitigarbha based on the Dao of Nirvana and incorporating the methods of Soul Chasing and Soul Capturing.

Once this supernatural power is used, the victim will be swallowed by nothingness if they are not careful. This is unlike being exiled into the void, where with great perseverance one can return through a spacetime anchor point.

This supernatural power is nothingness, the nothingness of annihilation. It directly erases the existing spacetime, equivalent to the soul being scattered.

As Ksitigarbha's realm advances and he progresses further in the path of Nirvana, this technique may even be able to completely erase a person from the river of time, thereby achieving true Nirvana.

Unfortunately, Ksitigarbha was not yet proficient in using this technique, and his cultivation level was low. With one strike, he only managed to erase one of the beast Fei Yi's bodies.

Even so, Ksitigarbha was very pleased with the power displayed by this supernatural ability.

Without further tormenting Fei Yi, Ksitigarbha used the Great Annihilation Technique once more to kill him.

In the time that followed, Ksitigarbha constantly sought out opponents, both to hone his skills and to familiarize himself with his supernatural powers.

On this day, a voice echoed from the sky: "A thousand years from now, I will give my second lecture at Zixiao Palace."

The primordial land instantly boiled over, and countless powerful beings soared into the sky, transforming into streaks of light that shot rapidly toward the outer heavens.

Ksitigarbha knew that his master might have returned to Mount Sumeru, so he hurriedly rushed to Mount Sumeru.

Upon arriving at Mount Sumeru, the two Daoists had been waiting for a long time. After giving some instructions to Ksitigarbha, they hurriedly headed towards Zixiao Palace.
