Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Guang Chengzi picked up the teacup, took a small sip, put it down, and suddenly smiled.

"Junior brother," he said, his voice filled with endless emotion, "you are truly blessed. This head steward has already broken through to the Great Luo realm, and his flower has blossomed to the ninth grade... Some teachers have recognized him, and he has joined the Chan Sect."

Huang Long also picked up his teacup, but didn't drink it immediately. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "She just did it on her own. Senior brother, you didn't come to my dojo just to praise my disciple, did you?"

Guang Chengzi put down his teacup, and the smile on his face slowly faded.

He looked at Huanglong and remained silent for a moment, as if he was considering his words.

A gentle breeze blew by the clear stream, causing a wisp of steam to drift sideways from the teacup.

"Duobao has broken through to a higher realm," Guangchengzi said.

Huang Long nodded. With the power of a human emperor and such a great opportunity, it would be strange for Huang Long not to break through.

"He broke through to the next realm in just a few decades, and the Jie Sect gained tens of thousands of disciples." Guang Chengzi's voice was unhurried, but every word carried weight. "Among those tens of thousands of disciples, there was a mixed bag of good and bad. Some of them did many... inappropriate things outside under the name of the Jie Sect. My uncle didn't care, or rather, he simply didn't care about these things."

Huang Long put down his teacup and looked at him: "Senior brother, did you come here today just to tell me this?"

Guang Chengzi shook his head, remained silent for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject: "Junior brother, among the three sovereigns of the human race, Fuxi and Shennong were both reincarnations of innate divine beings. Do you know the background of the third human sovereign?"

Huang Long was taken aback.

He hadn't expected Guang Chengzi to go through such a long and roundabout way, only to ask this question in the end.

He originally thought that Guang Chengzi would at most ask about his experience and advice in teaching the emperor.

He pondered for a moment, then slowly put down his teacup and shook his head, saying, "Such secrets of heaven and earth cannot be known by anyone but a sage; I do not know them."

This wasn't an excuse; he genuinely didn't know.

In his memory, the third human emperor seemed to be a pure human, not some innate divine reincarnation.

There might be some secrets he doesn't know about!

After all, Fuxi and Shennong were both reincarnations of innate deities in mythology, but some things in the primordial world were not exactly the same as what he remembered.

Guang Chengzi stared at him for a while, seemingly trying to determine the truthfulness of his words.

After a moment, he looked away, picked up his teacup, drank the remaining tea in one gulp, and stood up.

"In that case, then so be it." His tone returned to its previous calm. "Thank you for the tea, Junior Brother. I'll take my leave now."

Huanglong also got up and saw him out of the Five Elements Cave.

Outside the cave, Huanglong suddenly called out to Guangchengzi, "Senior Brother."

Guang Chengzi stopped and turned around in confusion.

Huang Long looked at him, his tone unusually solemn: "No matter who the third Human Emperor is, I hope that Senior Brother will refrain from committing acts of killing while teaching the Human Emperor."

Guang Chengzi narrowed his eyes, as if trying to glean something from those words.

He looked at Huanglong for a moment, then suddenly laughed. His laugh carried a hint of disdain, as well as a sense of being offended and helpless.

"Junior brother, you worry too much," he said. "As a direct disciple of a sage, I cultivate my morals and would never commit such wanton killing. I am not some heretical enlightened being..."

Guang Chengzi's meaning is very clear: he has a pure foundation and cultivates the Jade Purity Great Dao, so he does not need to learn the bloodthirsty nature of those who do not understand the will of Heaven.

Huang Long nodded and didn't say anything more.

Guang Chengzi turned around and stepped onto the escape light. His apricot-yellow figure passed through the clouds and mist of Kunlun Mountain and quickly disappeared among the layered peaks.

Huanglong stood at the valley entrance and watched him leave. His gaze lingered in the direction where Guangchengzi disappeared for a long time before he slowly looked away.

"Master, what brings Uncle Guangchengzi here?" Ziling peeked out from behind and asked curiously.

Huang Long didn't turn around, he just shook his head slightly.

"I've come to ask you some questions," he said.

"What do you want to ask?"

"Inquire about the third emperor."

Zi Ling blinked: "Then do you know?"

Huanglong remained silent for a while, gazing at the undulating Kunlun Mountains in the distance, where herds of mythical beasts roamed and cranes danced in the air.

"I don't know." There was something indescribable in his tone; it wasn't confusion, but more like a calm anticipation of something to come.

He turned around and led Zi Ling back to the depths of the Five Elements Cave!

Guang Chengzi's purpose was obvious: he wanted to know the background of the third emperor in advance so that he could make some preparations.

They also hoped that, under his guidance, they would become emperors even faster than Shennong. This was also a secret rivalry between Guangchengzi and the senior disciples of the Duobao sect!

Unfortunately, he truly did not know what special background the third emperor possessed. All he could do was remind Guang Chengzi not to commit murder and become tainted by bloodshed.

Zi Ling followed him for a few steps, then suddenly asked, "Master, what did you mean by what you just said to my master... 'Do not commit murder'?"

Huang Long paused for a moment and glanced at her sideways.

"It's nothing," he said. "Just something I mentioned casually."

Zi Ling said "Oh," and nodded as if she understood but not quite.

She wanted to ask something more, but when she saw Huanglong bring out the Chaos Yin-Yang Pearl again, she stopped talking.

Outside the grotto-heaven, the primordial world was slowly turning according to its own trajectory, with the clamor of ten thousand immortals coming to pay homage on Golden Turtle Island and the arrogant shouts of those cultivators who called themselves disciples of the Intercepting Sect along the East Sea coast...!

In the Jade Void Palace, the gaze of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable was fixed on the figure of Guang Chengzi, and then fell on the Chaos Yin-Yang Pearl in front of Huang Long...!

Throughout the entire prehistoric world, apart from the grand spectacle of the Jie Sect after Duobao broke through to the Quasi-Saint level, another matter that drew the attention of countless beings was the human race.

A century after Shennong became the Human Emperor, many humans had fully digested that opportunity.

Shennong summoned many elders of the human race to the newly built Human Emperor's Palace for a meeting.

The meeting lasted for more than ten days. No outsiders knew the specific content. Only when the doors of the Emperor's Palace were opened and the clan elders filed out, each of them with a calm and solemn expression.

No one made a loud noise, no one whispered to each other; they simply bowed to each other in farewell and then went their separate ways.

Several years later, a large army composed of human cultivators appeared on the edge of human territory!

Before the human army even reached the border, the ancient tribes bordering the human race had already caught wind of the situation.

Those clans are numerous and powerful, with some having a Grand Luo Realm ancestor in charge!

However, ever since Fuxi attained the status of Emperor of Man, the human race has lived in peace with the other races due to their powerful strength.

Even though Fuxi entered the Fire Cloud Cave, the human race still has a Great Luo Immortal, so these races dare not invade the human race!

When news spread that Shennong had attained the status of Human Emperor and that four more Great Luo Immortals had been added to the human race, some groups had already anticipated it, because the human race had already multiplied several times over due to Shennong's appearance, and expansion was only a matter of time.

Upon seeing the human army appear at the edge of the territory, the pragmatic chieftain immediately gave an order.

"Walk."
