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

Chapter 58 Chaos Opens the Daoist Temple, Reactions from All Sides

When Jieyin and Zhunti heard Hongyun's words, they were overjoyed. They both wished that Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi would not interfere with the Western Sect, so that they could control the power within the sect.

Thinking of this, the two of them laughed and said, "Senior brothers, please go ahead. With the Western Sect here, there will be no problems."

"good!"

Zhen Yuanzi nodded, retrieved the Twelfth-Grade Pure World White Lotus, held it in his hand, and said, "My two junior brothers, this Twelfth-Grade Pure World White Lotus can be used to suppress the Western Land and refine the demonic energy that seeped into the earth in ancient times, so I will not take it to the outer heavens."

As he spoke, the twelve-petaled Pure World White Lotus in Zhen Yuanzi's hand emitted a dazzling white light, which then surged into the earth.

A beam of white light appeared, spreading outwards like ripples, before quickly disappearing.

Upon seeing this, Jieyin and Zhunti expressed their gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said no more. After discussing it with Hongyun, he transmitted his voice to the heavens and earth, saying that the two of them would soon open a Daoist temple outside the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Meanwhile, the entire world was in an uproar, with countless beings discussing the matter.

In the Kunlun Mountains.

The Three Pure Ones gathered together.

Lao Tzu frowned and looked westward from time to time.

Yuan Shi's expression turned quite grim.

Tongtian couldn't help but ask, "Brothers, our four junior brothers, Zhenyuanzi, Hongyun, Jieyin, and Zhunti, have now jointly established the Western Sect, received Heavenly Dao merits, and become saints. Moreover, junior brothers Zhenyuanzi and Hongyun are even planning to open a Daoist temple in the Chaos. What should we do now? Should we go and congratulate them?"

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi's already unpleasant expression became almost ferocious. He said, "Go where? What's so great about going?"

"Now they have attained enlightenment before us, while we have completely lost face."

Lao Tzu shook his head and said, "Don't be impatient, second brother." After thinking for a moment, Lao Tzu added, "It's not a big deal to attain enlightenment early."

"After all, we are all destined saints. Whether we attain sainthood early or late, we are still saints. But their actions have made me understand how to become a saint."

"Establish a religion?" Yuanshi and Tongtian weren't stupid either; when Laozi said that, they could also figure out the key point.

Lao Tzu nodded and said, "The four of them established their religion by educating the people of the West, which earned them the approval of the Heavenly Dao. In particular, their forty-nine great vows are truly profound and complex upon closer examination."

"And did you all see that? Although all four of them became saints at the same time, Hongyun's merit was the greatest, even greater than that of Jieyin and Zhenyuanzi, who used magic weapons to suppress the fortune. This shows that the establishment of the Western Sect was largely due to Hongyun's efforts."

Yuanshi and Tongtian were quite surprised. They hadn't noticed this at all, but Laozi was incredibly observant and had even deduced it.

"Merits vary in magnitude, and saints vary in strength. Among the four saints, Hongyun is the strongest, and his scheming is unpredictable. Before this, I had almost never seen him make a move, and he rarely appeared in the prehistoric world. Yet, he made a name for himself in a single moment. He was the first among us to comprehend the opportunity to become a saint."

Lao Tzu said, "I think we can go and see how he established his Daoist practice in the chaos, and we can also ask him how to become a saint!"

"what!"

Yuanshi and Tongtian's expressions changed drastically. They said, "Ask him for guidance?" But the two of them were extremely unwilling.

Yuanshi, in particular, said, "Elder brother, we are the true descendants of Pangu!"

"Even the true lineage of Pangu must become a saint," Laozi said, glancing at the two of them.

Yuanshi and Tongtian were speechless. In the end, the two of them followed Laozi, and the three of them headed towards the outer heavens.

Meanwhile, in one of the three heavens, there is a Phoenix Perch Mountain, which is the sacred site of Fuxi and Nuwa.

After the two joined the demon race, they naturally moved their training ground to the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Phoenix lives in the mountains.

"Sister, now four people have all become saints. I wonder if you have any sense of when you will become a saint yourself?" Fuxi asked Nuwa.

Upon hearing this, Nuwa shook her head and said, "I have only severed two of my corpses so far; I am still far from becoming a saint."

"Why don't you establish a great sect, like them, Junior Sister?" Fuxi suggested again.

Nuwa smiled and said, "Brother, there are many powerful people who have established a sect, but only four of our junior brothers have been able to gain great merit and become saints. Clearly, this is not something that can be achieved simply by establishing a sect."

"Don't forget the forty-nine great vows made by my four junior brothers before we established the sect. I think that's the key."

"The Western land has been desolate and barren since ancient times. Now, four junior brothers have made a great vow to make it flourish. That is why the Heavenly Dao has recognized them and bestowed merit upon them, enabling them to become saints."

Upon hearing this, Fuxi nodded and said, "This should be the key. However, with the sudden appearance of four great sages, I'm afraid the world is about to change."

Fuxi had a specific meaning behind his words.

Nuwa naturally knew what he was talking about, and frowned slightly, saying, "Brother, we shouldn't interfere too much in the affairs of the demon race. Dijun and Taiyi are too ambitious, and Kunpeng is two-faced. If we had known this would happen, we shouldn't have agreed to co-rule the demon race with them in the first place. Now it's hard to extricate ourselves."

Fuxi nodded, then shook his head, and said, "This matter is my fault. I was the one who persuaded you to agree. Alas, if I had known earlier that you would be accepted as a disciple by the Dao Ancestor and that he would surely become a saint in the future, I would not have done that."

"Looking back now, I realize I was short-sighted. I was only after the fortune and merit of the demon race, but now I feel the karmic consequences are heavy, and they are a great obstacle to our cultivation. Otherwise..."

At this point, Nuwa stopped Fuxi, saying, "Alright, brother, stop talking. Let's go to the outer heavens and see how powerful our junior brothers Zhenyuan and Hongyun are after they become saints. They can even open a Daoist temple in the chaos."

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Fuxi nodded and said no more. He and Nuwa set off together towards the Thirty-Three Heavens.

The two of them made no attempt to greet Di Jun, Tai Yi, and Kun Peng.

Of course, the three of them didn't have time to pay attention to them right now. Di Jun, Tai Yi, and Kun Peng were all extremely troubled and annoyed.

Just as Fuxi said, four sages suddenly appeared in the primordial world, which really caught them off guard.

At the same time, this has a huge impact on the demon race.

After all, the demon race doesn't have any saints.

However, despite this, Di Jun, Tai Yi, and Kun Peng were helpless. After discussing for a long time, the three could only decide to go and see Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun opening up the Daoist temple in the chaos.

Let's witness their extraordinary abilities and see just how powerful they are.

Previously, during the great war between the demon race and the witch race, each of them unleashed their great formations, but they were all thwarted by the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Furthermore, it was established that demons rule the heavens and witches govern the earth.

This prevents them from starting a war before the Great Calamity is over.

But Hongjun Daozu has already merged with the Dao, so he is no longer a saint, but the Heavenly Dao.

The Way of Heaven is naturally irresistible, but what about the Sages? Can their Celestial Star Array contend with the Sages?

We'll have to go and take a look.

And just like Di Jun and the others, there was also someone in the Pangu Palace beside Mount Buzhou on the primordial land.

The twelve ancestral witches also gathered together and were discussing matters.
