Primordial Era: If I remain in Longevity Mountain, I will steadily attain sainthood.

Chapter 29 Zhen Yuanzi Opens the World of Earth Books, Zixiao Palace Gives its Second Sermon

Meanwhile, the emergence of the demon race in the primordial world caused the world, which had gradually formed an order, to become somewhat chaotic again.

This was because the demon race was growing stronger and stronger, and it also had five powerful figures in charge: Di Jun, Tai Yi, Kun Peng, Fu Xi, and Nuwa. None of them were inferior to the Eastern King Duke or the Western Queen Mother.

Nuwa, in particular, was revered by Hongjun Daozu after his first sermon. Hongjun was unanimously honored as Daozu by powerful figures from all sides, while Nuwa was taken in as his personal disciple and designated as someone who would become a saint in the future.

Although the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother were also granted titles, the difference in their status was obvious.

After all, no matter how high an official's rank is, they can't compare to the crown prince or princess of the current dynasty.

How can the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother compare to the direct disciples of the Dao Ancestor?

Furthermore, the demon race is powerful and inclusive. Whether they are born from wetness or hatched from eggs, or are covered in fur and armor, as long as they cultivate supernatural powers and are good at transformation, they can join the demon race. Those who achieve immortality are also called demon immortals.

These demon immortals only obey the orders of the demon race's lords, namely Di Jun and Tai Yi, and have no regard for the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother.

As a result, the order that had just begun to stabilize was gradually showing signs of collapse.

Moreover, it wasn't just the demon race that was like this; besides the demon race, another powerful race also rose up in the prehistoric world.

This race is the Witch Clan. However, in general, the Witch Clan is not numerous, and although they do not obey the orders of the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother, their ability to disrupt the rules is still not as great as that of the Demon Clan.

The demon race became a major threat to the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother. To govern the prehistoric world well, they had to subdue the demon race.

The two discussed their grand plan and considered various countermeasures, but dared not report to the Dao Ancestor Hongjun rashly, for fear that the Dao Ancestor would think they were incompetent.

But after much discussion, the two could only come up with one solution: to attack from within the demon race.

A head-on confrontation is definitely not going to work.

Of the five high-ranking members of the demon race, Di Jun and Tai Yi have the greatest ambitions, which are quite obvious. Naturally, the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother would not set their sights on them.

Kunpeng, on the other hand, is aloof and eccentric, making him an unsuitable target.

Only Fuxi and Nuwa, the brother and sister, were much gentler and easier to approach. Then, by persuading them, and out of respect for the Dao Ancestor, we could avoid putting them in a difficult position.

In short, the strategy employed was one of softening, with the siblings Fuxi and Nuwa acting as a check on the brothers Dijun and Taiyi.

This strategy proved to be very effective.

With the intervention of Fuxi and Nuwa, the brothers and sisters, Dijun, Taiyi, and Kunpeng also agreed, and the demon race was finally well restrained.

This relieved the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother, but they felt that governing this primordial world and managing the immortals was a long and arduous task.

However, the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother were unaware that although the demon race appeared calm on the surface, there were actually undercurrents surging beneath the surface.

As the initiators of the demon race, Di Jun and Tai Yi had ambitions that Dong Wang Gong and west Wang Mu could not have imagined.

They painstakingly won over Fuxi and Nuwa, as well as Kunpeng, enabling the demon race to grow stronger step by step. How could they possibly remain so obedient forever?

The reason for the temporary compromise is merely to allow the demon race to continue to grow stronger and accumulate greater resources.

When the demon race truly becomes invincible, then Di Jun and Tai Yi will launch their true actions.

By then, when the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother finally realized what was happening, it would be too late.

Although Hongyun never left Wanshou Mountain, he could still learn a great deal about the open and covert struggles in the primordial world by calculating the secrets of heaven and exploring the world with his divine sense.

However, Hongyun paid no attention to it and waited for about a hundred years. Finally, Zhen Yuanzi emerged from seclusion.

Zhen Yuanzi's cultivation level had not broken through; he was still in the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, but his aura was becoming increasingly powerful.

Clearly, these thousands of years of seclusion have allowed him to make considerable progress, especially as Zhen Yuanzi has repeatedly calculated how he opened up the world of the Earth Book and has a clearer set of steps.

The method of world enlightenment proposed by Hongyun is, after all, a nascent creation, and it varies from person to person and from magical artifact to artifact. Therefore, the steps and methods by which each person opens up a world will still be very different.

Not long after Zhen Yuanzi emerged from seclusion, he went into seclusion again, and asked Hongyun to protect him.

He was preparing to create a world within the Book of Earth.

After everything was ready, Zhen Yuanzi began. Unlike Hong Yun, who had to reforge the twelve Sea-Stabilizing Pearls to create a single Universe Pearl before opening up the world, Zhen Yuanzi was different.

However, Zhen Yuanzi's Earth Book is natural and contains space within it.

What Zhen Yuanzi needs to do is to transform the space within this Earth Book into a world.

One side can serve as the foundation of one's own great path.

Even so, with Hongyun's experience in opening up the world as a precedent, it still took Zhen Yuanzi more than two thousand years to successfully open up this Earth Book world.

Once this Earth Book World was completed, Zhen Yuanzi's cultivation also advanced by leaps and bounds, and he finally broke through from the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal to the perfect Great Luo Golden Immortal.

There were even faint signs that he was about to break through to a higher realm, but Hongyun had already reminded Zhenyuanzi to be patient for the time being.

It is said that this second sermon is about the Primordial Chaos Dao. If one understands and comprehends the Primordial Chaos Dao more deeply after listening to the sermon, the benefits of further breakthroughs will be greater.

Zhen Yuanzi, without any suspicion, agreed and did as instructed, suppressing his cultivation level.

He only reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal Perfection stage.

At this point, their cultivation levels were very close, both being at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Although Hongyun's world was created earlier, Zhen Yuanzi's world was created within the Earth Book.

The Earth Book is one of the most top-grade innate spiritual treasures, and it is much stronger than Hongyun's Qiankun Pearl.

Therefore, the Earth Book world created by Zhen Yuanzi is in no way inferior to Hongyun's Qiankun world.

This also led to Zhen Yuanzi's cultivation level catching up rapidly, making Zhen Yuanzi exclaim that he had finally regained his dignity as an elder brother.

Hongyun didn't care about this at all. Even if Zhen Yuanzi was really stronger than her, Hongyun wouldn't be jealous; she would only be happy for him.

After all, the two are brothers. They have lived together on Longevity Mountain for so many years, spending every day together except when they are in seclusion. Their relationship is undoubtedly very close.

Once Zhen Yuanzi opened up the world and his cultivation broke through to the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, the second sermon at Zixiao Palace was not far off.

Finally, on this day, Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi were chatting in the temple, discussing their doubts about cultivation.

Suddenly, they heard the voice of Hongjun Daozu: "Ten thousand years have passed. I shall begin to expound the Dao of Hunyuan in Zixiao Palace. Those of you who are destined to hear it should come quickly."
