Primordial Era: I rule the great sect and command all immortals.

Chapter 36 Various parties are eager to make their moves, and Jieyin and Zhunti are helpless.

"Huanglong has won this match," Laozi announced the result with a blank expression.

The group from the Chan Sect were overjoyed and congratulated Huanglong Zhenren. Then, Taiyi Zhenren walked out with a smile, bowed to the Three Pure Ones, and then kowtowed to Xuandu of the Human Sect and the five great disciples of the Jie Sect before standing in the center of the hall.

Seeing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader felt somewhat helpless. Dingguang Xian, this good-for-nothing, still needed to be trained, and he had needlessly lost face.

"I've come to experience the extraordinary skills of the Chan Sect's Master Taiyi!"

The one who stepped forward was none other than Yunxiao Fairy, the leader of the Three Immortals of the Jie Sect.

Upon seeing this woman appear, even Li Yunjing nodded. The Three Immortals of Sanxiao and Zhao Gongming now reside in the "Chaos Palace." They are among the best of the new disciples of the Jie Sect. With their cultivation, surpassing Taiyi Zhenren is naturally a given.

As expected, in the following competitions, the Jie Sect performed exceptionally well, winning eight matches and completely dominating the Daoist debate.

This scene delighted the Tongtian Sect Leader, but Yuanshi Tianzun was somewhat annoyed. The creature with fur and horns that he looked down upon had actually defeated his carefully cultivated true disciple. How could this be!

"The Three Religions' Discussion Conference has come to an end! The Witch and Demon races are currently powerful, their conflicts endless, primordial calamity is rising, and the secrets of heaven are obscured. For the next three thousand years, the three of us will preach to you. You must listen attentively and not become complacent!"

"We will heed our master's teachings, listen attentively, and seek the Great Way!"

Li Yunjing was overjoyed; he hadn't expected this benefit.

It should be noted that after the Three Pure Ones established their sect, he had not heard his eldest and second senior uncles preach for a long time. This was a rare opportunity. Unlike other disciples of the Jie Sect, he was familiar with the major laws of the other two sects in addition to the "Shangqing Immortal Method" of his own sect. It can be said that Li Yunjing was the true inheritor of the three sects and the number one person of the three generations of Xuanmen.

"The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name."

Taiqing Laozi slowly opened his mouth, and lotus flowers bloomed in the auspicious clouds, and auspicious energy descended. Taiqing immortal light flowed around him, and black and white energy circulated, gradually transforming into a Taiji double fish diagram.

The celestial music of the Great Dao wafted through the hall, the sky shone brightly, golden lotuses sprang from the ground, countless golden flowers rushed towards us, countless colorful lights converged, and a misty aura arose.

Li Yunjing listened most attentively, and felt that after listening to the Dao this time, his bottleneck at the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm had loosened somewhat, and he could now try to break through to the middle stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

After the Sage Taiqing finished his sermon, the figure of Yuanshi Tianzun appeared in the center of the hall, sitting on a cloud bed. Yuanshi Tianzun's ethereal Daoist voice resounded throughout the hall. Compared to Taiqing Laozi's teaching of the Dao of Non-Action, what Yuanshi Tianzun was teaching this time was the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, rather than any kind of cultivation path.

Another thousand years passed, and in the Sanqing Palace, all the disciples of the three religions entered a state of enlightenment. Their magical power and Taoist cultivation had greatly improved. This was the benefit of having a famous teacher to guide them.

As a phantom of a blue lotus bloomed in the sky, the Tongtian Sect Leader became the sole center of heaven and earth.

Suddenly, countless blue lotuses bloomed in the Sanqing Palace.

Four sword-qi azure lotuses bloomed at the four extremes of heaven and earth, slowly unfolding, containing boundless Dao principles and all kinds of techniques.

This time, the Tongtian Sect Leader is talking about techniques that are most effective in enhancing a cultivator's combat power.

This is also why the Jie Sect won a great victory in this Daoist conference. The Chan Sect emphasizes the improvement of Daoist cultivation, while the Jie Sect focuses on the cultivation of magical power. Both of these cultivation methods point directly to the Great Dao.

However, their powerful magic in the early stages gave them a significant advantage in battles, which is the main reason why the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect were no match for some of the sect's inner and outer disciples.

In later generations, after a long period of cultivation, Guang Chengzi, Taiyi Zhenren, and others had higher levels of Taoist cultivation and increased their magical power. Naturally, ordinary disciples of the Jie Sect were no match for the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect.

After three thousand years of preaching by the three sages, Li Yunjing gained some insights and immediately went into seclusion.

Five Yuanhui have passed in the primordial world. At this time, Li Yunjing has raised his cultivation to the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal. On this day, he felt something in his heart and could not completely enter meditation, so he came out of the secluded hall.

Standing atop Kunlun Mountain, gazing into the distance, one sees a Buddhist kingdom in the western sky. Within this kingdom, the air is filled with the fragrance of Bodhi seeds, golden lotuses fall to the ground, and the eight classes of heavenly beings, including apsaras and rakshasas, dance in blissful poses.

In the Buddhist realm, there may be bodhisattvas preaching in the melodious chanting of sacred sounds, or there may be fierce-looking vajras guarding the Buddha's disciples.

Bodhisattvas expound the Dharma, Buddhas sit in meditation, Arhats manifest the three thousand great worlds—what a magnificent scene of ultimate bliss!

The Western Paradise.

"Junior brother, is this really necessary? You must know that by doing this, we will incur endless karmic debts from the Heavenly Dao!" Jieyin asked with difficulty.

"Senior brother, we can't wait any longer. Seven multidimensional cycles have passed since Hongjun merged with the Dao, and we have yet to become saints. Recently, countless powerful beings have secretly entered the Western Regions." Zhunti's face was somewhat gloomy. "Senior brother should know very well what these people are after. Although we brothers are powerful, there are countless powerful beings in the prehistoric world. If we don't become saints, we may end up following in Hongyun's footsteps."

The thought of Hongyun's fate made Jieyin and Zhunti's expressions turn grim. It seemed that the other great supernatural beings had made up their minds not to give their fellow disciples any more time in order to prove their own path.

"Sigh! Let's just take it one step at a time! We're in a dire situation right now, so we can't worry about the future." Jieyin sighed and could only agree to Zhunti's plan.

"That's right! Senior brother, how can we become saints without owing karma? We fellow disciples don't have the roots and fortune of the Three Pure Ones. Besides, even if we become saints, we can repay our debts slowly. Saints are immortal and will repay them sooner or later."

Zhunti was also anxious and could only console himself that, in any case, he should become a saint first.

"Very well! Just now I suddenly had an epiphany, the 'Primordial Purple Qi' trembled, it seems that the two of us can only become saints with this, this is the trend of the times, it seems that destiny cannot be defied!" Jieyin smiled bitterly, who would be willing to owe this boundless karma?

"Alright! Let's begin!"

"Heaven above, I guide you. Zhunti will establish a religion in the West: the Western Religion, to guide all beings toward goodness, free from suffering and sorrow, a land of ultimate bliss. The innate spiritual treasures 'Golden Lotus of Merit,' 'Vajra Pestle,' and 'Golden Pool of Merit' will be used to suppress the Western Religion's destiny. The Western Religion is established!"

Their voices echoed throughout the primordial world. Although the western land was bathed in golden light, abundant merit fell upon the two, elevating their cultivation to the peak of severing their two corpses.

However, these merits are pitifully small compared to those of Nuwa and the Three Pure Ones, much like the merits of Dijun and Xihe witnessing the heavenly marriage. Not to mention that Jieyin and Zhunti could both become saints, even one of them could not possibly succeed.
