Primordial Era: I am the Supreme Being of Reincarnation

Chapter 275 The Overbearing Su Chen, Contending for the Position of Emperor's Teacher

"Buzz!"

The will of Heaven and the will of Earth designated the human race as the sole chosen protagonist of the new era, which immediately gained the approval of the will of the primordial world, and a vast amount of human destiny was bestowed upon the human race.

The patriarchs of countless top clans in the primordial world all looked towards the coast of the East Sea, their expressions all revealing profound thoughts.

"A new era has finally begun!"

"If a single destined protagonist has appeared in the primordial world, will humanity be able to produce a representative of the Way, and will all living beings attain sainthood in the Way of Humanity?"

The Way of Heaven has its representatives, and there are five Heavenly Saints in total.

There is a Daoist master named Pingxin Niangniang, and also a Daoist saint.

As one of the three rulers of the primordial world, shouldn't humanity also have its representatives and sages?

Although the human race is the only protagonist of the new era and the destiny of the primordial world, the human way is the will of all beings in the primordial world. Once a representative of the human way appears, all races and beings will have the opportunity to become saints of the human way!

"Whoosh!"

At this moment.

Humanity's will is fed back to the primordial world.

For humanity to successfully become the true sole protagonist of destiny, it needs the rule of the Three Sovereigns and the establishment of order by the Five Emperors before it can achieve its goal.

The eyes of the Three Pure Ones and the Two Sages of the West lit up slightly, and then they exchanged a knowing glance.

The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race needed human guidance to achieve enlightenment. If one could become the teacher of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and enjoy the fortune of humanity, it would be of great benefit to both the Heavenly Dao and one's own lineage.

However, the struggle between the Heavenly Way and the Earthly Way, as well as the struggle between the various lineages of the Heavenly Way Saints, could very well escalate into a great war between the Saints if the allocation of the positions of teachers of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors is not handled properly.

Taiqing Laozi pondered for a moment, then looked at Su Chen with a serious expression.

"Fellow Daoist Su Chen, if the human race wants to successfully become the sole protagonist of destiny, it needs the guidance of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to truly achieve this."

"However, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, being a weak human race, needed the guidance and instruction of strong individuals. To avoid conflict among them, I would like to offer you the position of tutor to the Earth Sovereign. Is that acceptable?"

The Three Sovereigns correspond to the three powers of Heaven, Earth, and Man, while the Five Emperors correspond to the five elements and five directions. Giving the position of Earth Sovereign's teacher to Su Chen can also eliminate the conflict.

"Oh!"

Su Chen sneered, his eyes mocking as he looked at Taiqing Laozi.

"The Heavenly Dao and the Earthly Dao are both rulers of the primordial world, and they are equals. The Heavenly Dao took seven of the teachers of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race, leaving only one for my Earthly Dao. Fellow Daoist Taiqing, do you think my Earthly Dao is easy to bully?"

Swish!

The atmosphere in the entire hall instantly turned somber, and an invisible sense of tension and impending doom spread through the air.

"Fellow Daoist Su Chen, the Three Sovereigns of the Human Race hold the most important positions, and their masters can obtain the most merit and fortune. We, the six Saints, share these equally. How can it be considered bullying that you have the master of the Earth Sovereign?"

Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Su Chen with a serious expression, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"good!"

"It is perfectly reasonable for us six sages of heaven and earth to equally divide the positions of teachers to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors!"

Jieyin and Zhunti immediately responded.

The teacher of the human emperor corresponds to the fortune of humanity and the merit of education, which is very important to every saint. If one can have one more saint among their two, who would give it up?

"Since you Heavenly Saints can make decisions bypassing my Earthly Path, why do you need to seek my opinion?"

"As for the spots in the Emperor's Army, let's just have everyone compete for them based on their own abilities!"

Su Chen put down the magical teacup in his hand and prepared to see the guest out.

In an instant.

The atmosphere in the entire hall plummeted to freezing point, the overwhelming chill and oppressive atmosphere causing even the weakest among those present, Zhunti, to feel a sense of dread.

Su Chen's strength has increased again!

Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jieyin, and Zhunti exchanged glances, their eyes narrowing slightly.

For over 100,000 years.

They had finally managed to recover 70-80% of their cultivation through the merit of mending the heavens, but who would have thought that Su Chen would break through again? This is too much of a blow!

"How about this, Fellow Daoist Su Chen, we'd like to offer you the position of teacher of one emperor and one king? What do you say?"

The situation is better than people.

Faced with overwhelming power, even Taiqing Laozi had no choice but to back down.

Back then, the six Heavenly Saints failed to stop Su Chen from proving his Dao. Now that he has broken through again, and the Earthly Lord, Lady Pingxin, has not yet appeared, if they go all out to compete for the position of Human Emperor's Teacher, even the five Heavenly Saints might not fare well.

"Slots for teachers of two emperors and two kings!"

Su Chen held up four fingers, the meaning of which was clear: he was taking all four spots by himself!

"impossible!"

"No!"

Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jieyin, and Zhunti all directly refused, and even Tongtian, who had been silent just now, gently shook his head.

"That's fair."

Su Chen picked up the teacup from the jade table again and took a sip.

"As the rulers of the primordial world, what's wrong with Heaven and Earth sharing the responsibilities of teachers to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors?"

The saints spoke to Su Chen with a nonchalant air, but the meaning behind his words was one that brooked no refusal, which made the Primordial Heavenly Lord and the two Western Saints want to leave immediately.

When humanity establishes itself as the protagonist of the primordial world, the Heavenly Dao and the Earthly Dao will each vie for supremacy through their own means.

In any case, the authority over humanity is currently in the hands of Heaven!

Taiqing Laozi stopped Yuanshi and the two Western Saints with a look. He took a sip of the Reincarnation Spirit Tea, comprehending the vast essence of the Great Dao rules, and looked at Su Chen once again.

"Fellow Daoist Su Chen, you say that the Heavenly Dao and the Earthly Dao share the positions of teachers of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, but the power of the Human Dao is now in the hands of the Heavenly Dao. Your aggressive behavior will not be tolerated by the Heavenly Dao and the Human Dao."

"How about this, let's each compromise. I, the Heavenly Dao, will grant you the position of tutor to one emperor and two emperors, how about that?"

"Brother!"

"Senior Brother!"

Seeing that Taiqing Laozi had yielded again, Yuanshi Tianzun and the two Western Saints looked indignant.

The more spots for the teachers of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors that Su Chen seizes, the fewer spots will be left for himself. How could he possibly tolerate that?

Taiqing Laozi waved his hand gently and looked at the two Western Saints.

"Junior brothers, do you want to completely sever your karmic ties with Hongyun?"

Upon hearing his words, Jieyin and Zhunti immediately understood.

Although Hongyun perished in his self-destruction, a wisp of his soul remained in Su Chen's hands. If he could help him reincarnate as the human "Earth Emperor," the karmic debt between them could be completely settled.

"good!"

"Then I'll leave everything to my senior brother's arrangements!"

Hongyun possessed great merit and fortune. During the great calamity of the Lich War, he saved countless humans, and his remaining wisp of soul was protected by the fortune of humanity.

His remnant soul was reincarnated as the human 'Earth Emperor', which not only allowed the human race to repay his kindness but also to completely settle all karmic ties with his senior brother!

"good!"

"Since Fellow Daoist Taiqing puts it that way, then I'll give you face."

Su Chen's original plan was to obtain the positions of one emperor's teacher and one emperor's tutor. Now, he has obtained an additional imperial tutor and can also appoint the remnant soul of Hongyun as the human race's "Earth Emperor". This is an unexpected joy.

"However, I have one more request!"

Swish!

Hearing that Su Chen was going to make more demands, even the usually quiet and unassuming Taiqing Laozi couldn't help but frown, while Yuanshi Tianzun and the two Western Saints felt extremely aggrieved.

They're pushing their luck and going too far!

For the first time, they felt resentment towards themselves for being inferior in strength and being bullied by Su Chen!

"Fellow Daoist, please speak!"

Taiqing Laozi put down the immortal porcelain cup in his hand and listened to Su Chen's conditions.

"As the three sovereigns and five emperors of the human race, as the holders of human authority, they will have the opportunity to attain the status of saints together with us in the future. We should not restrict their choice of cultivation methods for attaining the Dao, nor should we interfere with their freedom after attaining the Dao, so as not to displease the will of humanity."

According to the original ordained destiny, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race were controlled by the Heavenly Sage. After attaining enlightenment, they were forcibly required to reside in the Fire Cloud Palace and could not emerge except during human catastrophes. This was euphemistically called "suppressing the human race's fortune."

Su Chen did not want to see humanity become a puppet and pawn of the Heavenly Dao, so of course he had to make this request.

"good!"

Hearing Su Chen use the will of humanity to intimidate him, Taiqing Laozi had no choice but to nod in agreement.

After the Lich King's Cataclysm.

The teacher and the Heavenly Dao suffered a backlash from the Great Dao Thunder, resulting in a significant depletion of their origins and a weakening of their control over the Human Dao.

Now that the Way of Earth is contending with the Way of Heaven, if it also provokes resistance from the Way of Humanity, then the losses will outweigh the gains!

Next.

The Five Sages of Heaven and Su Chen began to discuss the specifics of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the Human Race, including what kind of contributions each Human Sovereign should make, the general trend of the Human Race, and the selection of teachers for the Human Sovereigns.

As the senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect and the leader of the Renjiao sect, it was only natural that Taiqing Laozi wanted to become the teacher of the human emperor.

The Earthly Emperor corresponds to the underground passage, and naturally, he was appointed by Su Chen.

The position of teacher of the human emperor was given to Yuanshi Tianzun, as it was most appropriate for him to "respect the way of heaven and expound the principles of heaven".

The title of the first of the Five Emperors was given to Tongtian, the second place to Su Chen, the third place to the Two Sages of the West, and the fourth place to Tongtian.

The last spot for the emperor was taken by Su Chen.

Originally, Laozi was unwilling to relinquish the throne because the Five Emperors would usher in a new era of dynastic rule, marking the formal entry of the human race into the feudal dynasty, which was of extraordinary significance.

However, Su Chen used the Five Emperors to correspond to the Five Elements and the Five Directions, with the last emperor corresponding to 'Earth'. In addition, he also controlled the reincarnations of the Human Emperor Fuxi and the Earth Emperor Hongyun.

Faced with his forceful demands, Taiqing Laozi had no right to refute him again.

"Fellow Daoist Su Chen, the reincarnations of the Human Emperor and Earth Emperor are in your hands now!"

After the tense competition ended, Taiqing Laozi returned to his calm and serene state, showing no sign of his inner frustration or dissatisfaction.

"Fellow Daoist Taiqing, rest assured, I will ensure that Fuxi and the remnant spirits of Hongyun are successfully reincarnated."

"good!"

"Then I shall take my leave!"

Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Jieyin, and Zhunti, the five Heavenly Dao Saints, rose from their prayer mats one after another, bowed to Su Chen, and prepared to leave.

With a gentle wave of his right hand, Su Chen sent five jade boxes to them using his supernatural powers.

"It is a rare privilege for you five fellow Daoists to come. Consider these spiritual teas as a return gift from this humble Daoist."

They had all given him a gift when they came to discuss the human race as the protagonist of destiny, so it was only right that he should return the favor.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"

After accepting the box of Reincarnation Spirit Tea, the Five Sages of Heaven glanced at Su Chen, their hearts filled with mixed feelings.

Just now, he was extremely meticulous about the benefits of the underground passage, refusing to give an inch. But now, he is incredibly magnanimous towards the Five Sages of the Heavenly Path, as if he doesn't consider them enemies at all.

Such magnanimity and composure are truly admirable.

I'd appreciate a few monthly votes! Little Tiger Cat thanks you!
