Primordial Era: The Way of the Three Lights and Stars

Chapter 17 017 Conflict Between the Two Religions

Tongtian originally wanted to say something, but when he saw Laozi also casting a glance at him, he pursed his lips in displeasure, then removed the formation and announced the end of the disciple recruitment.

Looking at the huge group of Jie Sect disciples, not to mention Yuanshi, even Wei Guang felt a bit of a headache.

Bixiao was also dumbfounded. She really didn't expect that her master would accept so many disciples at once. This was too outrageous!

If the senior disciple had foreseen this scene, then his statement wouldn't seem so problematic.

After Yuanshi left with his disciples, Tongtian looked at his three thousand disciples and said, "Now that you have joined my Jie Sect, you should abide by the rules of my Jie Sect. You must keep the following rules in mind."

Upon hearing this, Wei Guang was overjoyed. There were even rules and regulations. It seemed that Tongtian hadn't completely ignored what he had said before.

"The first rule of the sect is that it is strictly forbidden for fellow disciples to kill each other."

"The second rule of our sect is to strictly prohibit the indiscriminate killing of innocent people, which would ruin the fortune of our sect."

"Article Three of the Religious Rules strictly prohibits deceiving one's teacher and ancestors, and insubordination."

"These are the three rules of our Jie Sect. Anyone who violates them will be expelled from the sect for minor offenses, or even die and perish for serious offenses. I hope you will keep them firmly in mind."

Wei Guang was dumbfounded. No, what family only has three rules?

"We will remember this well."

All the disciples bowed in unison and responded loudly.

"Mysterious Light, Golden Spirit."

"Disciple is here."

Tongtian looked at the two of them: "Xuanguang, you are the senior brother, and Jinling, you are the senior sister. You both have the right to enforce the law on behalf of your master. You must help each other and manage the disciples well."

Wei Guang and Jinling Shengmu exchanged a glance and said in unison, "We will obey our master's orders."

Tongtian nodded in satisfaction, then suddenly glanced at Taiqing Palace and Yuqing Palace. The next second, as if they had planned it beforehand, the voices of the three echoed throughout the primordial world:

"I, Taiqing Laozi, Yuqing Yuanshi, Shangqing Tongtian, will preach the Tao at Kunlun Mountain three thousand years from now. Those who are destined are welcome to come and listen."

Whether it is Nuwa, the Three Pure Ones, or the Two Sages of the West, they are all disciples of Hongjun and have the responsibility to spread the Dao throughout the primordial world. Otherwise, where would the title of Dao Ancestor come from?

After making the announcement, Tongtian raised his hand and pointed, and countless points of light fell, flowing into the brows of the disciples before disappearing from the spot.

Seeing Tongtian leave, the disciples did not rush to leave, but looked at Wei Guang and Jin Ling, as if they wanted to see if they had any instructions.

I thought about it.

Wei Guang said, "I only have one piece of advice: remember the rules of the sect and do not disobey them, or don't blame me for not showing any loyalty to my sect. Of course, disciples of the Jie Sect will not allow themselves to be bullied. As long as you stand on the side of reason, I will unconditionally support and help you."

The disciples all replied in unison, "We will remember this well."

Golden Spirit Mother: "Me too."

Upon hearing this, Wei Guang's lips twitched slightly, but the disciples dared not ignore it and responded in unison.

Just as he was about to leave, Wei Guang suddenly seemed to remember something and said to the disciples, "I have recently become engrossed in the art of weapon crafting and have quite a few finished products on hand. Those who are interested can exchange them with their weapon crafting materials."

"Senior brother, I want it."

"I want one too."

"Me too, me too."

……

As soon as Wei Guang finished speaking, many people responded.

Unlike those with a master, most rogue cultivators in the prehistoric world do not possess any valuable spiritual treasures, and the newly joined outer disciples of the Jie Sect are no exception.

Even acquired spiritual treasures are rare, because they simply don't know how to refine them.

Below the acquired spiritual treasures, there is also the concept of magic treasures. Among independent cultivators, due to the limitations of inheritance, most of what they refine is at the level of magic treasures.

So Wei Guang set up a stall there.

Perhaps due to their insufficient cultivation, the group did not have many good materials, mostly low-grade and mid-grade materials.

This left Wei Guang feeling quite helpless.

Nevertheless, Wei Guang returned the money to them as much as he could, since keeping it would be of no use to them.

Fortunately, not all of the three thousand disciples were useless; some outer disciples at the Golden Immortal level contributed a considerable amount of high-quality materials.

The Seven Immortals and Jin Ling, among others, contributed some top-quality materials, which finally allowed his weapon-forging career to continue.

Wei Guang didn't rush to give them finished products made from the best materials; instead, he opted for pre-ordering.

After inquiring about their needs, Wei Guang left, preparing to tailor-make a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure for them. As for the success rate...

Success will come eventually.

Wei Guang isn't stupid; he wouldn't just trade one for one. He still needs to factor in the cost of consumables.

……

Completely immersed in the great undertaking of weapon forging, five hundred years passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Wei Guang exhausted the last batch of materials and stopped.

Over the past five hundred years, Wei Guang has had a high success rate in refining top-grade acquired spiritual treasures, but he has no hope of obtaining supreme treasures.

Such treasures are not commonplace items. Even if they are acquired later, they are not something that a Taiyi Golden Immortal like him can refine. He can't even refine the materials alone.

All the materials used to refine acquired treasures are top-tier.

According to Wei Guang's estimate, it would take at least until he reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, or even the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and at least the middle or even late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Therefore, Wei Guang decided to temporarily put aside his weapon-making skills.

He spent too much time refining weapons, and his cultivation of magical power and laws could not be ignored either.

However, these five hundred years were not entirely wasted. He not only completed the many orders he owed, but also had a surplus after paying off his debts.

"Senior Brother, Senior Brother, they're fighting! They're fighting..."

Just then, a very urgent voice came from outside the palace. Wei Guang opened the gate and saw that it was Yu Yi Xian.

Wei Guang asked, "What happened?"

After Yu Yixian's explanation, Wei Guang finally understood the reason.

The incident began when Lingya Xian found a low-grade innate spiritual root in Kunlun Mountain, which happened to be seen by Ju Liusun of the Chan Sect. Ju Liusun, seeing the treasure, harbored malicious intentions.

They say that those who are born from moisture and hatch from eggs, and who are covered in fur and have horns, are not worthy of such blessings.

In the end, not only did he seize Lingya Xian's opportunity by relying on his cultivation level, but he also beat Lingya Xian up severely.

Upon returning, Lingya Xian grew increasingly angry. Since Wei Guang was in seclusion, she went to find her second senior brother, Zhao Gongming, to see what kind of temper he had.

They immediately went to Ju Liusun's house, beat him up, and took back the spiritual root.

Ju Liusun was dissatisfied again, so he went to his senior brother Guang Chengzi. Without saying a word, the latter immediately ordered all the members of the Qi Chan Sect to come and fight.

When it came to headcount, how could the Jie Sect be afraid of them? Three thousand disciples surrounded them directly.

Seeing that things were about to escalate, Jin Ling hurriedly sent the fastest Feathered Immortal to find Wei Guang.

"Walk."

Yu Yixian had just heard Wei Guang's voice when he looked up, but Wei Guang was nowhere to be seen, which startled him.

He is a Golden-Winged Roc. Although his cultivation level is not as high as Wei Guang's, the difference is still too great.

Soon, Wei Guang arrived at the scene of the incident, where he saw that the fourteen members of the Chan Sect were surrounded by three thousand members of the Jie Sect. Although they were shouting fiercely, they dared not make a move.
