Primordial Era: I am the First Green Ox, the Senior Brother of the Three Religions

The Supreme Sage's calm yet profound voice, imbued with unparalleled Daoist wisdom, resounded like a morning bell and evening drum, echoing in the hearts of every disciple of the three religions.

Xuan Du!

It was actually Senior Brother Xuandu!

In an instant, the entire Penglai Immortal Island fell into a deathly silence, followed by a deafening roar that soared straight to the heavens!

"It's Senior Brother Xuandu! I knew it! Who else but Senior Brother Xuandu has such courage!" A disciple of the Human Sect shouted excitedly, his face flushed.

"My God! Grand Master Xuandu is about to attain the Primordial Dao? This... this is too fast!" Taiyi Zhenren forgot to wave his small fan. He stared blankly at the tribulation cloud, his mouth agape enough to swallow an egg.

"Ninety years ago, our eldest brother bestowed the Saint's Crystal upon our senior brother Xuandu. How long has it been? Less than a hundred years! He has already comprehended the Primordial Creation and attracted the Primordial Heavenly Tribulation!" Even the usually composed Jade Cauldron True Man couldn't help but gasp, his voice trembling.

Guang Chengzi stood at the forefront of the Chan Sect disciples, tightly gripping the Heaven-Turning Seal in his hand, feeling the destructive aura that terrified even him. Looking down at the tightly closed cave below the tribulation clouds, his eyes were filled with complex emotions.

There was shock, there was envy, but more than anything, there was a heartfelt respect and admiration.

"We didn't lose unjustly, we didn't lose unjustly at all." Guang Chengzi shook his head with a wry smile and said to Chi Jingzi and the others beside him, "Senior Brother Xuandu's Dao heart and comprehension are indeed far superior to ours. He deserves this champion position and this opportunity to become a saint."

Upon hearing this, Chi Jingzi and the others nodded silently, no longer harboring any resentment.

Yes, while they are still struggling in the Quasi-Saint realm, others have already begun to transcend tribulations and attain the Primordial Chaos realm. This gap can no longer be bridged by magic treasures and magic power.

On the other hand, the Jie Sect camp was in complete uproar.

"Good heavens! I'm absolutely blown away!" Zhao Gongming slapped his thigh, his face full of excitement and fervor. "Senior Brother Xuandu is awesome! If this succeeds, our Xuanmen will have another Saint Master! From now on, when we go out to fight, we'll have to announce our names with a louder voice!"

"Pah! You blockhead, all you know is fighting!" Bixiao spat at him, but her beautiful eyes sparkled as she stared at the cave dwelling, filled with admiring stares. "Senior Brother Xuandu is so amazing! He'll be Saint Xuandu soon! I wonder if he needs a maid to serve him tea and water?"

"Sister, stop talking nonsense!" Yunxiao blushed and gently patted her, but the excitement in her eyes did not diminish at all.

Daoist Duobao patted his round belly, a hearty laugh spreading across his face: "Hahaha! Great news! Incredibly great news! With Senior Brother Xuandu's attainment of Dao, the fortunes of our three religions will surely surge once again! Those demonic brats from another world haven't even attacked yet, and we've already gained a saint ourselves. What do you call that? That's called a great start!"

Although he lost to Xuandu in the grand competition, he harbored no resentment whatsoever. The stronger the Xuanmen sect became, the more confident they, as disciples, would be, and the greater their chances of survival in the face of the impending calamity.

Just as the immortals on the island were discussing and their hearts were surging with excitement.

squeak-

With a soft sound, the stone gate of the cave, shrouded in endless calamity clouds, slowly opened to both sides.

Everyone's breathing stopped abruptly at that moment, and tens of thousands of eyes converged on that deep cave entrance.

A figure dressed in a simple Yin-Yang Taoist robe stepped out of the darkness and appeared in everyone's sight.

The newcomer had a gentle face and walked with a composed gait; he was none other than the second disciple of the Human Sect, the Grand Master Xuandu.

The Xuandu of today is vastly different from the place it was during the grand competition ninety years ago.

His eyes were no longer clear and bright, but rather like two deep and boundless chaotic star seas. With each blink, scenes of yin and yang arising and ceasing, and the rotation of the Great Dao, evolved within them.

There was no leakage of magical power around him, yet he naturally exuded a supreme aura that was in harmony with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and resonated with the Primordial Dao Fruit. He simply stood there, as if he had become the center of this world, with countless laws dancing joyfully around him.

The cyan-gold Saint Crystal between his brows had disappeared, replaced by an extremely profound Tai Chi mark woven from countless chaotic Dao patterns, slowly rotating and radiating an immortal and indestructible eternal radiance.

"Disciple Xuandu greets Master and his two senior uncles."

Xuandu first bowed respectfully to the Three Pure Ones above the clouds, his voice calm and showing no sign of the tension he was about to face a life-or-death calamity.

Then, he turned around and bowed deeply to a towering figure in the void not far away.

"Xuan Du greets Senior Brother."

That figure was none other than Niu Ben, who had already arrived to support him.

Niu Ben stood tall and imposing in the void, his body surrounded by chaotic energy. He looked down at Xuan Du, whose aura had already undergone a transformation, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

"Not bad, very good." Niu Ben nodded in satisfaction. "It seems you haven't wasted these ninety years. You've found your own path on the Primordial Chaos Dao."

"If it weren't for my senior brother bestowing the Saint's Crystal upon me, illuminating the path for Xuandu, I would still be wandering outside the gate. I will never forget this great kindness." Xuandu spoke solemnly and sincerely.

Niu Ben waved his hand and laughed heartily, "We're brothers, there's no need for such formalities. The opportunity has been given to you; whether you can seize it is up to you. Today, you just need to focus on overcoming your tribulation; leave the rest to us."

His gaze swept over the increasingly violent calamity clouds in the sky, a domineering and incomparably cold glint in his eyes.

"A mere Primordial Heavenly Tribulation is no match for the heavens!"

Niu Ben made no attempt to conceal his words, and his voice resounded throughout the Three Realms.

The powerful beings throughout the primordial world were all deeply shaken upon hearing these words.

What a boastful tone!

That's the Primordial Heavenly Tribulation! Anyone below the level of a sage will die upon touching it. Even a sage himself wouldn't dare say he could easily withstand it.

But in Niu Ben's words, it seemed to be just a trivial little trouble.

However, no one dared to question it.

Because the one who said this was Niu Ben! He was the number one person in the primordial world who personally killed a giant from another world who was at the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm!

Upon hearing this, Xuan Du felt a surge of pride, and his once calm and unwavering Dao heart began to stir.

With a master and uncle protecting them, and a senior brother in charge, who else in the entire history of the prehistoric world could have such a lineup?

If he fails in this calamity today, what face will he have to stand between heaven and earth?

"Hahaha! Great!"

Xuan Du looked up at the sky and laughed loudly, his clear laughter echoing through the clouds.

Without the slightest hesitation, he flung his Taoist robe and transformed into a streak of black and white light, soaring into the sky to meet the endless tribulation clouds that would make even saints tremble!

"Heaven's will prevails!"

"The Humanist Sect's Mysterious Capital, today we prove our Dao here!"

"bring it on!"
