Primordial Era: Cultivation level equals the sum of the Jie Sect's total; the Three Pure Ones a

Upon hearing that their master had summoned them, the others said no more.

Xuan Du cupped his hands slightly, then his figure flickered and transformed into a streak of azure light, speeding towards Biyou Palace.

Behind him, Daoist Duobao and the others watched him leave, their expressions varied.

The Holy Mother of Golden Spirit withdrew her gaze and said softly:

"A century to the mid-stage of the Primordial Chaos realm... Such speed is truly unbelievable."

The Holy Mother of Wudang nodded slightly:

"Junior Brother Xuandu is probably hiding quite a few secrets."

Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and laughed heartily:

"So what if they have secrets? As long as they are disciples of my Jie Sect, that's enough!"

Bixiao blinked, then suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Yunxiao:

"Big sister, do you think Junior Brother Xuandu will cause trouble in the prehistoric world again after he comes out of seclusion this time?"

Yunxiao's eyes flickered slightly, his voice clear and cold:

What's meant to come will come.

......

In front of Biyou Palace.

Xuan Du landed, and the palace gates opened silently.

He stepped inside, and the palace gates behind him slowly closed.

The hall remained empty, with a cloud-shaped bed and jade throne, a Qingping sword hanging in the air, and the Ten Thousand Immortals Array Diagram faintly visible.

The Master of the Heavenly Sect sat upright on the cloud bed, dressed in a simple blue robe, his face serene.

But those deep, abyss-like eyes were now fixed on Xuan Du.

His eyes held undisguised curiosity, and even... a hint of disbelief.

Xuan Du felt a chill run down his spine, but his face remained impassive as he stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"Disciple Xuandu greets Master."

The Tongtian Sect Leader did not respond immediately.

He gazed quietly at Xuandu, his eyes seemingly able to pierce through all illusions and look directly at the origin.

A brief silence fell over the hall.

After a long silence, the Master of Heaven spoke slowly, his voice calm:

"century."

He paused, his gaze growing even deeper:

"From the early stage of Hunyuan to the middle stage."

"Xuan Du, do you know what this means?"

Upon hearing this, Xuandu understood.

really.

To break through to the next realm in a hundred years, and at the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal, is an astonishing speed.

Not to mention the Tongtian Sect Master, even the Hongjun Dao Ancestor who resided high in the Zixiao Palace probably didn't have such rapid progress back then.

But he was prepared.

Xuan Du raised his head, his gaze clear, his voice steady:

"This disciple understands."

"This means... the disciple's cultivation speed is exceptionally fast."

He paused slightly, met the probing gaze of the Tongtian Sect Leader, and said frankly:

"But Master, it only took me a few days to rise from a mortal to the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm."

"Breaking through a minor realm every hundred years, compared to that time... seems to be nothing at all."

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible ripple flashed in the eyes of the Tongtian Sect Leader.

Yes.

How could he have forgotten about that?

When this child first entered the sect, he was nothing more than a mortal with a physical body.

However, within just a few days, he underwent a complete transformation, and his cultivation level soared to the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal.

After preaching, he broke through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, triggering chaotic phenomena that alarmed the entire Jin'ao Island.

In comparison, breaking through to the mid-stage of Hunyuan in a century now seems quite logical.

Even so, this speed is still astonishing.

"Opportunity?"

The Tongtian Sect Leader slowly uttered two words, his gaze still fixed on Xuandu.

Xuan Du nodded slightly:

"Yes."

"This disciple possesses the origins of a chaotic god or demon, and his understanding of the Great Dao differs from that of ordinary people."

"Furthermore, he has taken in hundreds of millions of human disciples, which has boosted his luck and provided support from his martial arts... With all these opportunities combined, he was able to break through by sheer luck."

His words were earnest, yet half-truthful.

The opportunity was real, the origins of the chaotic gods and demons were real, and the human race's gratitude was also real.

However, the existence of the system is his biggest secret, and he will never reveal a single detail about it.

The Tongtian Sect Leader remained silent for a moment, his gaze lingering on Xuandu for a long time.

Finally, he slowly withdrew his gaze.

"That's enough."

The Grand Master of Heaven sighed softly, his voice tinged with a hint of melancholy:

"Everyone has their own opportunities and destiny, and I won't ask too many questions."

"As long as you don't go astray and don't do evil deeds, you are a disciple of my Jie Sect."

He looked at Xuandu, his eyes regaining their usual calm and majesty:

"Now that you have broken through to the mid-stage of the Primordial Chaos realm and your strength has greatly increased, your original intention of letting you go into seclusion can be considered to have been achieved."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Du's heart stirred slightly.

As expected, when his master asked him to go into seclusion, ostensibly to temper his mind, it was actually to protect him from calamity.

Now, a century has passed, and his strength has greatly increased, so his master no longer insists on him.

"Thank you for your understanding, Master."

Xuandu bowed and said.

The Grand Master of Heaven nodded slightly, then changed the subject:

"However, you must remember this."

His gaze pierced through the palace walls, looking into the endless void, his voice carrying a hint of solemnity:

"In this primordial world, the aura of calamity is growing ever stronger."

"The Lich and Demon races are already at each other's throats, and a decisive battle is imminent."

"When the great calamity begins, the world loses its color, all things are overturned, and even a Primordial Golden Immortal caught in it will be in danger of perishing."

He withdrew his gaze and fixed it on Xuan Du again:

"Although your strength has greatly improved, you have only been cultivating for a short time and your foundation is not as solid as those veteran Quasi-Saints."

"If we are truly about to face this calamity... we must be extremely cautious."

Xuan Du felt a warmth in his heart.

The master's words, seemingly a reminder, were actually telling him that if he were to encounter danger, he shouldn't try to tough it out.

He solemnly cupped his hands in greeting:

"Disciple understands."

The Master of Heaven nodded and then slowly stood up.

He took a step forward, and his figure was already in front of Xuandu.

Eyes facing each other.

"Xuan Du".

The Tongtian Sect Leader's voice was calm, yet it carried an undeniable power:

"Now that you have joined my sect, you are a disciple of my Jie Sect."

"No matter what powerful enemies you encounter or what calamities you are drawn into as you travel through the primordial world..."

He paused slightly, then spoke each word clearly and distinctly:

"Remember, you have your master behind you...."

"Buzz!"

The moment the words fell, an incomparably vast saintly sword intent erupted from the Tongtian Sect Leader!

Although it lasted only a moment, it shook the entire Biyou Palace!

The Qingping Sword emitted a pleasant chime, its light flowing and illuminating the heavens!

That sword intent transcends all things, annihilates all laws, and carries the unique domineering power and protection of the Tongtian Sect Master!

Xuandu trembled violently!

He felt the promise contained in that sword intent, and an unprecedented warmth surged in his heart!

"Disciple...will remember!"

Xuandu bowed deeply, his voice filled with barely suppressed excitement.

The Tongtian Sect Leader looked at Xuandu, a barely perceptible hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

He slowly turned around and sat back on the cloud bed, his gaze still fixed on Xuan Du, with a mixture of scrutiny and admiration.

"Xuan Du".

The Tongtian Sect Leader spoke again, his voice returning to its usual calm, yet carrying a profound meaning.

"Do you know what it means for my Jie Sect that a hundred years ago you took in countless human beings as your disciples, causing the fate of the Jie Sect to intertwine with the fate of humanity?"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Du's heart stirred slightly, and he bowed and said:

"This disciple is dull-witted, please enlighten me, Master."

The Tongtian Sect Leader nodded slightly, his gaze piercing through the palace and looking at the invisible fortune of the Jie Sect.

"This means... my sect's fortune has surged by 30%."

His voice was calm, yet it was like a thunderclap, exploding in Xuan Du's ears!

Thirty percent?

Xuan Du's pupils suddenly contracted!

Although he knew that the human race's allegiance would lead to an increase in the fortune of the Jie Sect, he never expected the increase to be so terrifying!

That's the destiny of the Jie Sect!

It is the immense fortune accumulated over countless years by the presence of the Heavenly Dao Saint, the Tongtian Sect Master, who commands the homage of all immortals!

Before even embarking on cultivation, billions of human beings can attract such astonishing blessings of fortune simply by becoming disciples and devoting themselves to cultivation.

This is simply unbelievable!
