Primordial Era: The Great Serpent of Yunmeng

Chapter 27 Emerging from Seclusion

Qi now seems to have washed away the dust of the past, her mind is at peace, and all her anger has disappeared.

Although his cultivation level hadn't improved much, his aura had become more refined and natural.

Qi Neng can sense that the current path is more suitable for her.

During his seclusion, Qi gathered his three flowers and five energies, actively severing his connection with the Dao fruit.

No longer at the Taiyi realm.

Rebuild the state of life, allowing the yellow sprout of life to grow spontaneously and "climb" towards the fruit of the Tao.

Until it is completely enveloped and then merged into one.

At that time, without the need to use life force or cultivation to attract it, the Taiyi realm will be formed naturally.

It can be said that:

Three flowers bloom naturally on the top of the head, and five vital energies unite in the chest.

With both life and health accomplished, the Great Way opens its gates to humanity.

To achieve this goal, pray to calm your mind and gather your energy at the bottom of the pool, refining your spiritual light.

Time flies by unnoticed, and the achievements of two cycles of time will pave a better path for the future.

By this time, all the ferocious beasts had poured into the northern continent, and only three more cycles remained before the end of the great calamity.

Within three cycles, the innate deities and the ferocious beasts must determine a victor.

In other words, within these three cycles, Shenni must die; otherwise, the calamity of the ferocious beast will continue into the next great eon.

At that time, they will enjoy the same treatment as the innate deities in the world.

Of course, this is not because their treatment has been improved, but because their innate divine fortune has been shared with the ferocious beasts.

At that time, as the victors of the great calamity, they may awaken their intelligence on a large scale.

Because the innate deities possessed such a vast amount of fortune that they occupied almost half of the primordial world's fortune.

Of the remaining 50%, 20% is still allocated to spiritual treasures and roots, famous mountains and great rivers.

Furthermore, spiritual treasures and spiritual roots are mostly occupied by innate deities.

Famous mountains and great rivers are also the places where it was conceived and where Taoist temples are located. Therefore, the truth is that the innate deities occupy 70% of the world's fortune.

The remaining three layers are for all living beings in the primordial world to share, and ferocious beasts now occupy about 10% of them.

Therefore, as long as the gods survive, they are the victors.

We will share in the innate divine fortune until the beginning of the next great eon.

This is also why those top-tier masters constantly preach to the new generation of innate deities.

This battle is of paramount importance; we must be prepared to die for it and ensure the complete annihilation of Shenni.

By leaving behind a legacy in advance, the tradition can be preserved and prevented from being lost.

Qi calculated the time with his fingers and was surprised to find that he had been in seclusion for so long.

He transformed back into his Daoist form and slowly left the space beneath the pool.

As soon as I looked up from the water, I saw Fuxi and Nuwa playing chess in the pavilion in the middle of the pond.

Upon seeing this, Qi smiled brightly and said:

"To see a good friend right after I came out of the customs is truly a great blessing in life."

Upon hearing this, Nuwa looked up and replied with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist Qi, we have been waiting here for quite some time."

"You weren't here when I came last time, so my brother and I went to the Sun Star instead."

"Now, we have returned once more, having waited for you here for a thousand years."

"If you don't come out of seclusion soon, my brother and I will head back to Phoenix Perch Mountain."

After speaking, Nuwa looked forward to how Qi would respond.

They did indeed wait for a thousand years, but instead of coming to Yunmengze first, they went directly to the Sun Star.

Fuxi's divination skills had improved, and he predicted that if they came to Yunmeng Marsh, they would most likely return empty-handed.

So they went to the Sun Star. At that time, Di Jun had just come out of seclusion, but Tai Yi was still in seclusion and recuperating. Only he came out.

"It was my fault for being rude; you didn't even greet me."

Qi responded with a smile, turning the tables on her.

In response, Nuwa rolled her eyes at her.

Fuxi then put away the chess pieces, took out fine wine, and invited:

"Qi, how about trying the fine wine from my Phoenix Perch Mountain!"

"good!"

The three sat in the pavilion, exchanging their insights and experiences from the retreat.

As they talked, the conversation drifted to the northern continent.

This is also an unavoidable topic among the innate divine beings nowadays.

As everyone knows, all the ferocious beasts have now converged on the northern continent, and since the great calamity is about to end, they will inevitably be concerned about it.

Given the ferocious beast's strength, it has no chance of winning this calamity; its fate rests on whether it can survive to the next great calamity.

Most of the innate deities have not yet intervened, because the situation has not yet reached the point where intervention is necessary.

In this great calamity, those who oppose the divine rebellion are the old gods and the three clans of dragon, phoenix, and qilin.

The gods are bound by the karma of the Three Sovereigns, and in their understanding, they must intervene.

Otherwise, it would be a betrayal of the Three Sovereigns.

He deviated from his own path and denied his own inheritance of the Three Sovereigns' lineage.

Having received the blessings of the Three Sovereigns, they have an obligation to stop the ferocious beasts.

The three clans were vying to divide the beast's fortune and its legacy.

Compared to most ordinary creatures, powerful and ferocious beasts often occupy more and better territories.

Only if they die at the hands of the three races can these territories rightfully become theirs.

Otherwise, forcibly taking possession will only bring trouble and ruin the clan's fortune.

Most innate deities do not place too much importance on the fortune of ferocious beasts.

Because they do not have their own tribe, they do not need this kind of fortune; their own fortune is already sufficient.

There are three kinds of fortune: the fortune of heaven and earth, the fortune of all living beings, and one's own fortune.

Most of those born as deities possess strong inherent destiny, are born with the power to control heaven and earth, are connected to heaven and earth, and occupy the majority of the destiny of a particular place.

The fate of heaven and earth does not easily change or shift; if one does not encounter misfortune, no outsider can take it away.

Fluctuations in one's own fortune do not affect outsiders, nor will they be transferred.

Only the fate of all living beings is constantly in flux, shifting continuously for various reasons.

It can be artificially interfered with and gathered, accounting for about 30% of the total fortune.

This 30% is what the three races can strive for.

As for territory, the place where the innate deity was conceived and nurtured since its birth is its natural territory and sacred ground.

Only famous mountains and rivers possess this ability.

Therefore, the innate deities will not compete with the three races for land and fortune, because they have no shortage of it and do not care about it.

Those favored by the heavens and earth are only the innate deities, and their benefits to the clan are not great.

Only those who bring fortune to the people can be the protagonists of their time.

Only by possessing enough of the destiny of all living beings can a race become a truly powerful species and the darling of the times.

The only way for the three races to achieve their goals is to snatch them from the ferocious beasts.

Only by exterminating them and ensuring they have no chance of rising again can the accumulated fortune of the ferocious beast race be released to the maximum extent.

Luck is limited; if you have a larger share, I have a smaller share.

There is no possibility of making the cake bigger together.

The wilderness may be vast, but it will eventually fill up.

Good fortune may bring many benefits, but the amount of power and convenience you enjoy is directly proportional to the amount of responsibility you bear.

Therefore, whenever there is a great calamity that damages heaven and earth, there will always be primordial deities entering the scene, the only difference being the number of them.

By relinquishing the innate sacredness of heaven and earth, one is said to relinquish as much as, or even more, the benefits derived from the fortune of heaven and earth that one previously enjoyed.
