Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

As Jieyin made forty-eight great vows in succession, the will of Heaven manifested, and golden lotuses of merit once again flowed into Jieyin's body. With the merit entering his body, this time there were no unexpected events, and Jieyin became a saint.

In an instant, strange phenomena arose throughout the primordial world, with purple clouds and rosy radiance stretching for thousands of miles, and two powerful forces that surpassed all living beings shook the primordial world.

This scene was far more grand than when Hongyun and the Three Pure Ones attained sainthood.

He was the first person in the prehistoric world to become a saint by pledging allegiance to the Heavenly Dao and swearing an oath to borrow merit. Although he was in debt, he pleased the Heavenly Dao and let the people of the prehistoric world know that the Heavenly Dao was not indifferent and was not inferior to Hongjun.

In the Taiqing Taoist Temple on Kunlun Mountain, the Three Pure Ones, who were meditating with their eyes closed, suddenly opened their eyes at the same time, glanced to the west, and then closed their eyes again.

Zhunti and Jieyin smiled broadly, their eyes now revealing an undisguised resentment towards Hongyun. They were finally vindicated; this was arguably the most exhilarating day they had experienced since taking human form.

Having always been on the run, hunted like rats, they finally have the right to look down on everyone and finally have the opportunity to revive the West.

Hongyun smiled and slapped him again.

Zhunti, along with Jieyin who had just become a saint, were both struck and their heads were knocked to the side.

"Don't you know that even among saints there are different levels? I severed my three corpses and steadily attained sainthood, which is different from you, a saint who attained sainthood by borrowing merit. Now it seems that you are only slightly stronger than a quasi-saint, and perhaps even weaker than my three corpses!" Hongyun struck at Jieyin and Zhunti again before leaving, as he still had to go back to find Zhenyuanzi!

[Ding! 300,000 Rage Points have been credited to your account!]

Jieyin and Zhunti stared at Hongyun's retreating figure with resentful eyes until they could no longer see her, then they embraced and wept bitterly at the injustice of Heaven.

Zhunti: "Senior brother, what are we to do! We thought that after you attained sainthood, no one would dare to bully us anymore, but that scoundrel Hongyun is still completely unscrupulous. He clearly intends not to let us go. With him around, our revival of the West will be even more difficult!"

Jieyin sighed and said helplessly, "Even the Dao Ancestor favors him, so who can we turn to for help? Eastern cultivators have such good cultivation resources and magic weapons that they can sever their three corpses and become saints faster than us."

"How could I not know that this method of achieving sainthood has countless drawbacks? But if I hadn't just comprehended the method of enlightenment, I would probably have died directly at the hands of that red cloud!"

"But what should we do?" Zhunti was at a loss.

After a moment's thought, Jieyin looked back at the Zixiao Palace of yesteryear, his gaze unfathomable: "When our Western Sect grows strong and our fortune becomes powerful, Hongyun will certainly be no match for us. No matter how high his cultivation is, he is only one person; how strong can his fortune be? Let's wait, wait for an opportunity that is favorable to us."

Even among sages, there are different levels, and the highest is undoubtedly Dao Ancestor Hongjun. Outside Zixiao Palace, Jieyin dared not say anything that Dao Ancestor would not want to hear.

He was going to wait until Hongjun stopped favoring Hongyun.

When Nuwa became a saint, she was summoned to the Thirty-Three Heavens, which explained that saints should not interfere too much in the affairs of the primordial world. Although it is unknown why none of them had this restriction, one can roughly guess what the Dao Ancestor meant.

If Hongyun were to use his saintly power to interfere in the affairs of the primordial world, alter its course, and commit atrocities, then the Dao Ancestor would surely despise Hongyun, or imprison him in the Thirty-Third Heaven, like Nuwa.
