Primordial Era: The Way of the Three Lights and Stars

Chapter 53 053 The Mandate of Heaven

If Duobao really does become the Buddha of the West in the end, and I give him the position of the teacher of the Five Emperors, wouldn't that be helping the West cultivate talent?

After some deliberation, Wei Guang finally decided to adopt a nepotistic approach.

Among those who are personally taught, whoever is willing to go to heaven with him will be given the opportunity. If no one in the direct lineage is willing, then the opportunity will be passed on to the Six Immortal Attendants, or even to the outer disciples.

That way, no one can say anything.

The opportunity is right in front of you, but if you can't seize it, you can't blame anyone else.

Wei Guang was about to send a telepathic message to Zhao Gongming and the others when he sensed something and looked up at the sky above the former Buzhou Mountain, where the Heavenly Court was located.

The next second, Haotian and Yaochi's voices resounded throughout the primordial world.

"Heaven above, I, Haotian and Yaochi, by the mandate of Heaven, rebuild the Heavenly Court, enforce the law on behalf of Heaven, and manage the order of the primordial world. I will use the Haotian Mirror to suppress the destiny. The Heavenly Court is established."

As the word "establish" was written, Heaven was moved and bestowed merit.

Of these, 50% went to Haotian, 40% went to Yaochi, and the remaining 10% flowed into Haotian Realm.

"cut."

The merit of rebuilding the Heavenly Court was not much, but Haotian managed to slay the evil corpse and enter the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint by relying on that little merit.

Yaochi, however, showed no reaction and remained at the early stage of Quasi-Saint.

At this moment, Haotian and Yaochi became the focus of the entire prehistoric world, with all living beings looking at them.

By the mandate of Heaven.

What is Heaven?

Without a doubt, it was the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

No one expected that what Dongwanggong, Dijun, and others had fought so hard for but failed to obtain would end up in the hands of two boys.

But upon closer reflection, I understand.

After all, these two were not ordinary attendants, but attendants of Dao Ancestor Hongjun. It was somewhat surprising, yet reasonable, that the Heavenly Court was under their control.

When one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven; besides, both of them were not lacking in cultivation.

Wanling thought that since the Heavenly Court had just been established, the two would take the opportunity to recruit people, but they did not do so. After finishing their business, they retreated directly back to the Heavenly Court.

Withdrawing his gaze, Wei Guang didn't think much of it and directly sent a telepathic message to Zhao Gongming and the others, asking them to gather at Sanguang Island.

"what?"

Having just returned to Sanguang Island, Wei Guang seemed to sense something and immediately flashed to the Sunlight Grass. Unexpectedly, after countless years of sedimentation and accumulation, it had actually developed sentience.

"Greetings, sir."

Wei Guang's sudden appearance startled Sunlight Grass, but she quickly realized who he was and her childish voice held a mixture of respect and fear.

Upon hearing the address "Master," Wei Guang smiled.

Sunflower can be considered to share the same origin as Wei Guang, and since they grew up on the same island, and now that it has developed sentience, Wei Guang naturally felt a sense of familiarity.

However, for those with a low-grade foundation, Taiyi is already the limit, and even reaching Taiyi depends on a stroke of luck, as it is ultimately too low.

"Very well, since you call me 'Master,' I will grant you a great opportunity. You should focus on your cultivation while I finish what I'm doing."

"Thank you, sir."

Upon hearing this, Sunflower was overjoyed and no longer showed any fear in her words.

Wei Guang ignored him and instead flashed to the Moonlight Grass.

"Greetings, sir."

That's right, the Moonlight Grass also developed sentience, and its cultivation level was the same as that of the Sunlight Grass, except that its voice was not that of a young boy, but that of a young girl.

Wei Guang didn't exchange many pleasantries with them. He left the same words as Sunlight Grass and then flashed to the Three Lights Star Tree to collect a new batch of fruits before returning to the Star Shadow Palace on the island in the lake.

Back at the Star Shadow Palace, Wei Guang set up six low tables in the hall, with three Three Lights Star Fruits placed on each table in a jade dish.

Although the Three Lights Star Tree is a top-grade spiritual root, it is far inferior to ginseng fruit and peaches of immortality. It is of little use to him or his disciples in the Jie Sect and can only be used to entertain guests and let them have a taste.

Not long after, Zhao Gongming and Yu Yixian arrived at almost the same time.

Wei Guang did not go out to greet them, but directly closed the island's protective formation and let them in on their own. It was not because he was arrogant, but because rules are rules and seniority cannot be disordered.

He is now not only the senior disciple of the Jie Sect, but also the vice leader.

"Zhao Gongming/Jin Yu pays respects to the Vice Leader."

Upon arriving at the Star Shadow Palace, the two bowed deeply to Wei Guang, their brows showing no sign of reluctance.

In the primordial world, people usually show their real names to those who are close to them, while their Taoist names are used to outsiders, only to strangers or people with whom they are not so close.

Jin Yu is Yu Yi Xian's real name.

Wei Guang waved his hand and helped the two up: "Junior brothers, please don't stand on ceremony, take your seats first."

At the same time, Wei Guang also noticed that Zhao Gongming had already entered the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm, and had obviously successfully opened up the Twenty-Four Heavens, otherwise his realm improvement speed would not be so fast.

Yu Yixian is still at the early stage of the Great Luo realm.

The two stood up, glanced around the layout of the hall, and then chose their seats according to their status.

There were six low tables in the hall, but only five people were his direct disciples. In other words, besides the five direct disciples, Wei Guang only invited Yu Yixian.

Thinking of this, Yu Yixian felt a warmth in his heart, after all, he was the only one who was not a personal disciple but was qualified to be present.

In the end, Zhao Gongming took the first seat on the left, while Yu Yixian took the last seat on the right.

Just as the two sat down, another person entered the hall. It was none other than the Golden Spirit Mother. Because Wei Guang had just closed the island's protective array, she came in directly.

"Jin Ling greets the Vice Leader."

"Junior Sister Jinling, please don't stand on ceremony, take a seat first." Wei Guang helped Jinling up, seemingly lost in thought.

Wei Guang did not cultivate on Jin'ao Island because Sanguang Island was not far away, while the other disciples and attendant immortals were all cultivating on Jin'ao Island and had not gone out to establish a Daoist temple.

Over the same distance, you can actually tell how people treat each other just by looking at their speed.

Perhaps it's not a matter of respect or disrespect, but the difference is still noticeable. Yu Yixian and Zhao Gongming, who benefited from it, were the most proactive.

Jin Ling is next, and as for the others...

Of course, Wei Guang had no complaints about this, but he had already roughly guessed the outcome.

If Zhao Gongming and Yu Yixian make the request, they will definitely not refuse. Even if they don't make the request, as long as they reveal a hint, they will respond positively.

It's hard to say about Jin Ling; it's up to her whether she's willing to go for a 50/50

Duobao and the others would most likely not agree unless they used their power to intimidate others, but there was no need for that, and Tongtian would not allow it.

A moment later, Duobao, Wudang, and Guiling arrived one after another, with roughly the same number of arrivals.

Once everyone had arrived, Wei Guang didn't rush to speak. Instead, he invited them to try the local specialties of Sanguang Island. After tasting them, their eyes lit up.

High-grade spiritual fruits are not commonplace; even they rarely have the opportunity to taste them.

Of course, he didn't act like he'd never seen the world before; he just offered a few symbolic compliments, and after everyone chatted for a while, Wei Guang finally got to the point.
