Primordial Era: Refusing Hongjun's path to sainthood, I attained the Dao of Hunyuan.

Chapter 49 Recruiting Kunpeng

"Since it's a method to directly attain the Primordial Chaos realm, then let me see it. I want to see what's so remarkable about this Demon Core technique. Kunpeng is considered one of the top experts in Zixiao Palace," Di Jun said after thinking for a moment.

"Um."

Bai Ze responded and passed on the method of obtaining the demon core to Di Jun.

At first glance, Di Jun was somewhat nonchalant, but after a while, his expression gradually became serious.

"What's wrong, brother?" Taiyi asked curiously upon seeing this.

"call!"

Di Jun finally finished reading the Demon Core Technique, let out a long breath, and said, "Kunpeng truly deserves the title of Demon Master."

"Although this method of cultivating demon cores has not been verified as to whether it can truly lead directly to the primordial state, it can undoubtedly be widely disseminated, as it is a perfect cultivation method for our demon race."

Di Jun's tone finally affirmed Kunpeng, placing him on the same level as himself.

"No great power in the primordial world should be underestimated." At the same time, Di Jun sighed inwardly.

Many powerful demons were discussing it.

Di Jun didn't care. He was still thinking about other things. Since he wanted to recruit Kunpeng into the demon race and make him a demon master, then the way to annex the forces of the Northern Sea would have to be changed.

Try to be as gentle as possible.

"The time for the second sermon is approaching, so I'll talk to him after the sermon," Di Jun thought to himself.

……

As time passed, the second sermon at Zixiao Palace was approaching, and the great beings from all corners of heaven and earth set off once again.

Streams of light of various colors rose from all directions and flew toward the chaos.

On Yingzhou Island, in the Xuanhuang Palace, Xuanhuang also awoke and flew out of seclusion toward the Chaos Purple Cloud Palace.

Xuanhuang arrived near the membrane of heaven and earth, where he found one of his own clones, namely the fire element clone, Binghuo Daoren.

This Daoist Binghuo is diligently cultivating and comprehending here, and is using the unique environment to gain insight into the Great Dao.

Xuanhuang ignored him and passed directly through the membrane of heaven and earth, entering the chaos.

This time, his journey went smoothly, and he was no longer trapped in chaos.

Even Xuanhuang's arrival at Zixiao Palace was considered relatively early.

Sitting on the seventh futon, Xuanhuang silently waited for the other powerful beings to arrive before Hongjun appeared and began to preach.

And so, after an unknown amount of time, more and more powerful figures gathered below the stage, and suddenly, Hongjun's figure appeared on the platform.

"Haotian, Yaochi, close the door," Hongjun ordered after glancing at the audience below.

The two boys quickly went over and closed the gates of Zixiao Palace.

Xuanhuang was somewhat surprised by this, because compared to the last time he preached, there were significantly fewer powerful figures in the audience.

Although not many, there were still at least a dozen fewer people.

Where are the promised three thousand powerful figures? They've been reduced in number, and there haven't been any replacements.

Xuanhuang thought about it carefully. First of all, Hongjun did not transmit his voice again during this second sermon, which basically cut off the channels for other powerful beings to come to Zixiao Palace.

If you can't attend the first sermon, you'll have even less of a chance to attend the second. Therefore, there's no possibility of joining halfway through.

Besides, the two sermons were only ten thousand years apart. Although the primordial world was vast, it was indeed impossible for many new great beings to be born in ten thousand years.

Therefore, all things considered, this sermon, though delivered by three thousand great men, was somewhat incomplete.

"Listen carefully to what I have to say," Hongjun said after Haotian and Yaochi closed the door.

After saying that, he ignored everyone else and continued talking on his own.

This second sermon was clearly much more profound than the first, extremely difficult to understand; it was the sermon at the level of a quasi-saint.

As for the only two "quasi-saints" in the audience, Xuanhuang and Laozi, it didn't bother them much, and they could understand a lot of what they were saying.

But for other powerful beings, it was a matter of life and death.

Most of the powerful beings couldn't understand it and could only memorize some of it. However, a small number of powerful beings, although they had not yet severed their corpses and become quasi-saints, had exceptional talent among all the powerful beings.

At this point, they could still barely understand some of what they heard and remember even more.

And so, in the blink of an eye, three thousand years had passed. After the second sermon, Hongjun stopped.

The audience below the stage also woke up one after another. Some looked confused, while others breathed a deep sigh of relief.

But in any case, these three thousand years of preaching have still been quite rewarding for everyone.

Even if you can't understand it now, if you remember it and study it slowly when you get back, it will still bring unimaginable benefits when you reach a higher level.

"A hundred thousand years later, the third sermon."

When Hongjun saw that everyone had woken up, he announced the time for the third sermon, which would be 100,000 years later.

Next, he sent everyone away.

This time, Xuanhuang politely declined to travel with Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun, and returned to the prehistoric world alone.

Meanwhile, Kunpeng had long been targeted by Dijun and Taiyi. As soon as he left Zixiao Palace, he was intercepted by the two.

"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, please wait a moment," Di Jun said with a smile.

Kunpeng glanced at the two brothers, frowned, and asked, "Do you need something from me?"

Di Jun nodded.

The three then walked to the side, where Di Jun shared some of his thoughts, attempting to recruit Kunpeng.

Let Kunpeng lead the forces of the Northern Sea to join the demon race.

However, Kunpeng decisively refused outright. He didn't even give Dijun and Taiyi any face, and simply turned and left.

Taiyi almost started a fight on the spot.

However, Di Jun stopped him, and after Kunpeng had gone far away, he said, "Taiyi, don't be reckless!"

"Big brother."

Taiyi was still somewhat indignant. "What are you afraid of? The two of us will take him down. If he's not convinced, we'll beat him until he is."

Di Jun shook his head and said, "Kunpeng is no ordinary being, so he is the most suitable person to be the demon master."

"Even if you defeat him with your strength, he will still be resentful and will continue to scheme and plot, causing endless trouble in the future."

"Let's leave it at that for now. This is just a test. Maybe next time he'll be eager to join our demon race."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Taiyi was somewhat bewildered. After thinking for a moment, he muttered to himself, "Let him join the demon race on his own? How is that possible?"

"hehe."

Di Jun smiled and said mysteriously, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed. In short, you don't need to think too much about this. I have my own plan."

Taiyi scratched his head and said, "Alright, although I still think we should just beat him into submission. This guy is obviously not honest. If we beat him a few more times, what tricks will he pull?"

"But you're the older brother, so I'll listen to you."

"Um."

Di Jun nodded, and the two of them moved, transforming into two streaks of rainbow light, traversing the vast chaos, and returning to the primordial world.

Meanwhile, Xuanhuang traveled alone, passing through the vast chaos, and returned once again to the vicinity of the primordial membrane of heaven and earth.
