Primordial Era: From the Creation Lotus to the First Disciple of the Three Pure Ones

"Heaven is unjust!"

In the beginning of time, there was a void, neither heaven nor earth. This was a chaotic region left over from the creation of heaven and earth, where time and space were indistinguishable.

A giant azure flower bloomed from the boundless void!

The surrounding area exuded a magnificent aura of creation!

This blue lotus has twenty-four petals, including red flowers, white lotus roots, and blue lotus leaves. Yes, it is indeed the twenty-four-petaled Creation Blue Lotus.

The sound came from the blue lotus.

Zhao Bao, also known as the Twenty-Four Creation Green Lotus, has been in this space for countless years. As for why he cried out, "Heaven's way is unjust!", it's because no matter how hard he tries, he cannot transform and leave this space.

Heaven does not allow such beings to exist in this world.

Zhao Bao was an ordinary college student in China who died suddenly after staying up all night reading fantasy novels.

He was reborn after death, and his consciousness resides within this twenty-four-petaled blue lotus. The reason is unknown.

At first, Zhao Bao was incredibly excited to find himself transported to the Twenty-Four Green Lotuses, and he was full of anticipation for the future. However, things have now developed in a way that has exceeded his expectations.

When Zhao Bao first transmigrated, he fantasized about becoming a saint and an ancestor, dominating the prehistoric world, especially in the early days of the world. You should know that at this time, many great gods of the prehistoric world had not yet taken human form. They dared not hope to be on par with Hongjun Daozu, and did not even think about becoming saints. But being a carefree big shot like Zhen Yuanzi and Styx was just a piece of cake.

The prehistoric world is a world where one's birth and background determine a large part of one's destiny. Every famous god in the prehistoric world has an extraordinary background and countless blessings from heaven and earth.

Without these, you still dream of defying the heavens? Absolutely impossible.

Especially after the Lich War, when Gonggong knocked down Mount Buzhou and Nuwa repaired the sky, the innate spiritual energy was lost, leaving only acquired spiritual energy.

Primordial spiritual energy only exists in well-known blessed lands and grotto-heavens.

After that, the beings born can at most reach the cultivation level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, and at most a few with extraordinary talent can reach the cultivation level of a Quasi-Saint.

But how many people with exceptional talent have emerged since then?

With this idea in mind, Zhao Bao tried many methods to transform into human form, but the results were unsatisfactory.

He had no inherited memories and tried various methods he had read about in novels, but he could not successfully transform into human form.

No matter how he tried, he could not take human form, but his primordial spirit was much stronger than when he first transmigrated, and he could even feel that the lotus platform had completely become a part of him.

He even swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao, just like in the novels, to sever all ties with the past and become a native of the primordial world, but he still couldn't take human form.

You must understand that this is the primordial world, a place where strength speaks, where killing is done without hesitation, and where weakness is the original sin.

Zhao Bao can't transform and move, how could he not be worried?

He was still a twenty-fourth-grade Creation Green Lotus. If he hadn't taken human form when the Three Pure Ones descended the mountain to travel through the prehistoric world, the Three Pure Ones wouldn't have cared about him so much. He would definitely have had his soul erased and his body dismembered. After all, the Red Flower, White Lotus, and Green Lotus Leaf were originally one family.

Therefore, Zhao Bao could not give up and could only think of another way.

He believed that Heaven might be wary of his aptitude and therefore forbade him to take human form, or that he was someone Heaven had prepared for the Three Pure Ones who was fundamentally incapable of taking human form.

He realized that the great god Pangu was born from the thirty-six-petaled lotus platform of creation.

He wanted to emulate the birth of the great god Pangu, using this twenty-four-tiered lotus platform of creation to nurture a humanoid individual, whose soul would eventually enter it. He would be considered a mini Pangu, and his aptitude would certainly not be inferior to those innate gods and demons, and might even be much stronger than them, reaching the level of some weaker chaotic gods and demons.

Unfortunately, he was not a medical student in his previous life, so he did not understand the meridians or the structure of the human body and could not create a true innate Dao body.

Another very important point is that he will not mobilize the essence of the Creation Lotus.

This near-perfect plan thus died in the womb.

But there's nothing we can do about it; we still need to keep looking for solutions.

Anyway, we have plenty of time, so we can try and fail multiple times.

Thus, Zhao Bao had no cultivation inheritance, no human form, and no spiritual treasure. He thought about it for countless years but couldn't come up with a good solution.

This "countless years" is a very, very long time. As for how long it will take, Zhao Bao doesn't know. It might be several eons. There is no sunrise or sunset in this space, so he has no concept of time at all.

Strictly speaking, the one thing the primordial world has in abundance is time. Zhao Bao's time is measured in eons. To the mortals of his previous life, Zhao Bao was considered an old monster, even more than countless times longer than the history of human civilization.

However, there's something wrong with this old monster. It's fair to say that it hasn't changed at all in all this time. It still can't take human form. It looks exactly the same as when it came, with almost no change whatsoever.

It can't be said that there have been no changes. The soul has become more resilient, and it can now slightly control the energy flow within the Twenty-Four Petal Creation Lotus. The heart has become emptier and calmer.

And so, countless years passed.

After a long period of time, Zhao Baobei would feel inexplicably irritable and full of resentment after she could no longer suppress the endless emptiness and loneliness.

This is not due to inner demons. Regardless of whether Luo Hou has created the demonic path at this point in time, even if he has, which celestial demon would dare to invade the Creation Lotus? Even Luo Hou, the founder of the demonic path, could not invade it.

The reason for this is that the mind and spirit have reached their limit and can no longer bear it, and will turn into nothingness.

At this time each time, the Twenty-Four Petal Creation Lotus would infuse its essence into Zhao Bao's soul, soothing his primordial spirit time and time again. Like a parched land receiving sweet rain, his primordial spirit would thirstily absorb it each time, making it more complete and powerful. It changed the origin of his primordial spirit, so that even if the Great Dao appeared, he would still possess a consciousness born from the Creation Lotus.

It was precisely this kind of nourishment that enabled Zhao Bao's primordial spirit to become a perfect, innocent heart, a heart that roamed freely between heaven and earth.

Red flowers, white lotus roots, and green lotus leaves—the Three Pure Ones were originally one family!

How can I take human form? Just as Zhao Bao was pondering this question as usual, he suddenly remembered it.

If they do not take human form, their souls will be erased and they will be torn apart by the Three Pure Ones.

Red flowers! White lotus roots! Green lotus leaves! Is there something I've overlooked?

He thought to himself, "Oh! That's right, if my fate is to be divided into red flowers, white lotus roots, and green lotus leaves..."

That Heavenly Dao certainly wouldn't allow me to take human form. But while the overall trend cannot be changed, minor trends can be reversed. That statement didn't mention lotus seeds!

I can transform into human form as a lotus seed! Even if my aptitude is lacking, it'll at least allow me to survive, hahaha!

I'm a genius.

Without hesitation, Zhao Bao plunged his primordial spirit into the Creation Lotus, found the largest and fullest lotus seed, and placed his primordial spirit inside, controlling the Creation Lotus's essence to flow as much as possible into that lotus seed.

It began a long period of accumulation.

However, this is nothing to Zhao Baobei. So much time has passed, and now that she has found her target, the time spent is just a minor issue.
