Primordial Era: Starting with Self-Created Mythical Great Luo Law

"Mirage Dragon, come with me to investigate. If there are any cultivators, we can discuss and exchange ideas with them; if there is no master, then this place will become your master's training ground from now on."

Upon hearing this, the Mirage Dragon nodded in agreement, but inwardly he didn't care—to him, it made no difference where he lived.

The man and the dragon continued on their way and soon entered the mountains.

After walking for a while, we quietly arrived at the mountainside.

Suddenly, a sharp shout rang out:

"Hey! Who dares to trespass on my mountain? State your name immediately! Why have you entered my sacred ground without permission?"

Upon seeing Chen Yu, the newcomer realized that his cultivation level was only at the Celestial Immortal realm, and seeing a strange beast accompanying him, he issued a warning.

However, Chen Yu had already sensed the other party's presence before they even appeared. Seeing that they were only at the Celestial Immortal level, he naturally didn't take them seriously.

"Fellow Daoist, please do not be offended. I am Chen Yu, and I have been traveling through the primordial world. Today, I happened to see the magnificent scenery of this mountain, and my heart was captivated. I entered it without realizing it. If I have offended anyone, please forgive me."

After listening, the man looked Chen Yu up and down before slowly speaking:

"I see. This mountain is called Chuyuan, and I am its master, the True Man Taiyuan."

"There is another fellow practitioner in the mountains, who is the One Yuan True Man."

"Since you have the opportunity to come here, fellow Daoist, why don't we go into the mountains for a chat, discuss the Great Dao, and explore the Dao together? What do you say?"

Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Chen Yu's face.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Taiyuan and Fellow Daoist Yiyuan. I am Chen Yu, greetings."

"Since you have invited me, I should certainly go; how could I refuse?"

Upon hearing this, Master Taiyuan burst into laughter.

"Fellow Daoist is indeed very generous! It's a rare occasion in a thousand years that Chuyuan Mountain welcomes guests from outside. Fellow Daoist Yiyuan and I have been cultivating here in seclusion for over a thousand years, and we have never had a fellow Daoist visit us. Today, with your arrival, we must have a long and fruitful discussion of profound principles, debating the Dao all night long!"

"Please follow me. Fellow Daoist Yiyuan has been waiting for a long time in the pavilion ahead."

Seeing Taiyuan Zhenren's enthusiasm, Chen Yu readily agreed and followed him.

He wanted to see what this Master Taiyuan was really up to.

If it's a genuine discussion of the Way, then everyone will be happy; but if there are ulterior motives, don't blame him for being ruthless.

With his current cultivation level, there is no one else in this primordial world besides a handful of people who are worth fearing.

What can a mere Celestial Immortal like Taiyuan Zhenren do to him? He is not worth fearing at all.

As for the mirage dragon, it always concealed its aura and never revealed its true cultivation level. Therefore, Master Taiyuan regarded it as an ordinary spirit beast and did not suspect anything.

Chen Yu followed Master Taiyuan all the way to a pavilion halfway up the mountain.

A person sat upright in the pavilion with their eyes closed, their breathing steady, as if in meditation.

Master Taiyuan glanced at the person in the pavilion, then turned to Chen Yu with a smile and introduced him:

"Fellow Daoist Chen Yu, that is the Fellow Daoist Yi Yuan I was referring to."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu nodded slightly and slowly approached.

"Fellow Daoist Yiyuan, Fellow Daoist Yiyuan, please allow me to introduce you—this is Fellow Daoist Chen Yu."

"By chance, Fellow Daoist Chen Yu entered the territory of my Chuyuan Mountain. Seeing that his cultivation was similar to ours, we specially invited him to discuss profound principles together."

Chen Yu looked at Daoist Yiyuan with a gentle smile, then cupped his hands in greeting.

"This humble Taoist, Chen Yu, greets Fellow Taoist Yiyuan."

Master Yiyuan had already stood up when Master Taiyuan introduced him, and upon seeing Chen Yu bow, he immediately returned the bow.

"This humble Taoist is Yi Yuan. Greetings, Fellow Taoist Chen Yu."

Seeing this, Master Taiyuan quickly gestured for the two to sit down.

"Fellow Daoists, please have a seat."

Chen Yu did not refuse and sat down on the stone stool without hesitation.

"Fellow Daoist, you may not know this, but before you arrived, I was discussing the essence of the Great Dao with Fellow Daoist Yiyuan."

"It was because you inadvertently violated the mountain's restrictions that I went out to investigate."

"I never expected to meet a fellow Daoist of the same level."

"Seeing that your aura is steady and your cultivation is comparable, I have decided to form a bond with you and invite you to discuss the Great Dao together."

After listening, Chen Yu nodded with a smile and slowly spoke.

"Fellow Daoist Taiyuan, you may not know this, but I have been cultivating alone for many years, seeking enlightenment in seclusion. I have encountered many difficulties on my path of cultivation."

"Unfortunately, I was all alone and had no one to ask for advice, so I had to put those questions aside for the time being."

"It is a pleasure to meet you two fellow Daoists today. I take this opportunity to have a heart-to-heart exchange."

Upon hearing this, Taiyuan Zhenren and Yiyuan Zhenren burst into laughter.

"What you say is absolutely right, fellow Daoist! We often exchange ideas and help each other resolve our confusion. Only in this way can we hope to achieve a smooth path on the Dao."

"Now that we have gathered here, if any fellow Daoist has any lingering doubts, please feel free to raise them. The three of us can then analyze them together. Wouldn't that be delightful!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu's lips curled into a slight smile. His smile betrayed the fact that this True Man Taiyuan already harbored murderous intent.

The few times he exchanged glances with Master Yiyuan just now were clearly a secret plot.

However, his mere Celestial Immortal cultivation was nothing but dust in his eyes.

Seeing that Chen Yu was only at the Celestial Immortal level, and having learned that he cultivated alone, had no sect or school, and had few friends, Taiyuan Zhenren was certain in his heart that this person was rootless and had no one to rely on, making him an excellent prey.

Cultivation is difficult. If one can eliminate the obstacles, one may be able to seize the magical treasures and spiritual objects. Even if one only finds some rare and precious materials, it would still be a great benefit.

Moreover, this is not the first time they have joined forces to do this.

In the past, whenever outsiders broke in, the countermeasures were determined according to their strength: the strong would be driven out by activating the formation, while the weak would be killed under the guise of discussing the Dao.

Now that Chen Yu has delivered himself to our doorstep, how can we let him go?

Moreover, the opponent is only one person, plus a small beast with no skills. It's a two-on-one situation, so there's no chance of failure.

Chen Yu, on the other hand, watched the situation unfold with great interest.

His current strength is so great that he has long surpassed the mortal realm. He is not in a hurry to prove his Dao. Instead, he wants to see what tricks these two can play.

Each of the three had their own thoughts, but on the surface they were all smiling and chatting, and the atmosphere remained as harmonious as ever.

After chatting for a while, Master Taiyuan, seeing that the time was right, proposed to formally begin the discussion on the Dao.

He winked at Master Yiyuan, who nodded slightly.

Chen Yu saw this but remained calm and agreed with a smile.

Then Master Taiyuan spoke first, sharing his own understanding of the Great Dao.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu understood immediately—they were merely superficial insights, devoid of any profound meaning.

After all, the other party is only at the Celestial Immortal level, so how deep can their understanding of "Tao" be?

But to keep up the act, he continued to pretend to be listening attentively.

Then Master Yiyuan continued his explanation, but what he said was also very shallow and unbearable, merely a beginner's guide.

In Chen Yu's view, their understanding of the Great Dao was like the babbling of a child, not worth a second glance.

Just as Chen Yu was about to speak and express his opinion, Master Taiyuan suddenly raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Fellow Daoist Chen Yu, please wait a moment. Allow me to make a trip—the mountain's protective barrier is fluctuating again, and I fear someone may have intruded."

"You and Fellow Daoist Yiyuan discuss the Dao for a while, I'll be right back."

Before the words were even finished, the person had already stood up, as if they were really about to leave.

Chen Yu then stood up, looked at Taiyuan Zhenren, and spoke with genuine concern:

"Fellow Daoist, be careful."

"Fellow Daoist Taiyuan, please wait a moment. Would you like me to accompany you?"

Upon hearing this, Master Taiyuan quickly smiled and waved his hand to decline.

"Fellow Daoist Chen Yu, there's no need to worry. You and Fellow Daoist Yi Yuan can continue your discussion here. With the great array protecting you, there should be no problem. I'm just going to check things out; if there's nothing amiss, I'll return immediately."
