Primordial Era: A God-Level Choice, Possessing Zhao Gongming at the Start.

Chapter 106 Why is Kunlun Mountain bald? Zhunti cries out!

The Daoist aura dissipated, revealing the figures of the Three Pure Ones, Zhunti, and Jieyin.

The five remained silent for a long time, then let out a long sigh, "The path to sainthood is so difficult to understand!"

Five people discussed the Dao for five hundred years, expounding on the quasi-saintly Dao, their discussions sparking inspiration and a brainstorming session.

Even so, the three of them remained confused, feeling as if they were only a thin sheet of paper separating them from the path to sainthood.

But this thin piece of paper firmly bound their steps, preventing them from taking any further steps.

The most painful thing in the world is not something ethereal and unattainable, but something you want that is right in front of you, yet you can't reach it no matter what.

Even the Three Pure Ones, Zhunti, and Jieyin, whose Daoist hearts were as firm as the Dao, couldn't help but feel a ripple in their hearts at this moment.

After a long while, Zhunti sighed and decided to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.

"Fellow disciples, since the sage Nuwa created humans to become a saint, why don't we follow her example and create a race? Perhaps we can also attain enlightenment."

Yuanshi glanced at Zhunti and said indifferently.

"The Sage Nuwa cultivated the Great Dao of Creation, and the creation of humankind is a manifestation of the Great Dao of Creation. You haven't even mastered the manipulation of creation, so how could you create living beings?"

"Furthermore, the creation of living beings and the attainment of sainthood is a sacred path that Junior Sister Nuwa comprehended, possessing uniqueness. Even if we resemble her, how can we attain the Great Dao?"

Yuan Shi's words caused everyone's hearts to plummet instantly!

You should know that the most dangerous thing on the path of cultivation is someone like them, who is only a thin veil away from enlightenment.

Sometimes, this thin layer of paper can be easily broken through, but sometimes, even after billions of years, it remains completely unmoved.

After a long silence, Taiqing slowly spoke to comfort them.

"The path to enlightenment is difficult to understand, but as long as we persist in our comprehension, we will eventually gain something. There is no need to rush. The more impatient we are, the further the path to enlightenment will be from us."

"We understand."

Everyone nodded in agreement, knowing that one cannot rush the quest for enlightenment.

The group immediately exhaled several breaths of stale air, putting aside their quest to comprehend the sacred path.

Seeing that the discussion had ended and everyone had still gained nothing, Jieyin quickly gave Zhunti a look.

The two Western brothers had been practicing together for countless millennia and had long since developed a spiritual connection. With just a glance from Jieyin, Zhunti knew what to do.

Immediately, Zhun stood up, bowed to the Three Pure Ones, and said, "My three senior brothers, since the conflict between the Dao and the Demon, the spiritual veins of the West have been shattered, and the cultivation environment has plummeted, far inferior to the other three regions of the East, South, and North."

"This time, in addition to discussing the Dao with my three senior brothers, I also brought along a few of my disciples to Kunlun Mountain. I wanted them to broaden their horizons and see how abundant the spiritual energy and natural resources of the East are."

"I also want them to see how powerful the disciples of the Three Pure Ones are, and to know that there are always people more capable than you, and that there is always something beyond your understanding. I don't want them to stay in the West for too long, becoming narrow-minded and hindering their cultivation."

Yuanshi frowned. "You mean, you want our disciples to have a competition and test their skills?"

Upon hearing this, Tongtian couldn't help but feel amused. Zhunti and Jieyin, who were shrewd all their lives, had lost their minds now.

His own eldest disciple was able to defeat a Great Luo Golden Immortal thousands of years ago. Wouldn't he easily crush these few Western disciples in front of him?

"No, no!"

Zhunti and Jieyin shook their heads upon hearing Yuanshi's words. "We came to Kunlun this time to discuss the Dao. If our disciples were to compete and things got out of hand, it would damage the harmony between us brothers. Wouldn't that be unpleasant? In my opinion, it's better to sit down and discuss the Dao than to compete."

Zhunti and Jieyin love to freeload and often travel to the East to collect rare and precious materials to bring back to the West.

Therefore, although Bhaisajyaguru, Maitreya, Mahasthamaprapta, Ksitigarbha, and others were cultivating in the West, their progress was no less than that of Guangchengzi, Duobao, and others. They were all at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level.

However, Zhunti and Jieyin also understood that the disciples accepted by the Three Pure Ones were all extraordinary.

For example, he had seen the Twelve Golden Immortals of Kunlun when Nuwa preached the Dao in the Chaos. Each of them had profound blessings, which his Western disciples could not compare to.

Then there's Zhao Gongming from the Shangqing lineage, who is even more powerful. He possesses the perfect cultivation of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and his fortune and foundation are in no way inferior to the Twelve Golden Immortals, and may even surpass them.

Even if Zhunti, Jieyin, Yaoshi, and Maitreya were combined, they would still be no match for Zhao Gongming.

A contest would most likely embarrass his Western disciples; it would be better to move on to the next stage: a discussion of Dao.

In terms of strength, it's one thing for his Western disciples to be inferior to the disciples of the Three Pure Ones, but in terms of discussing the Dao, his Western disciples are proficient in the three thousand great Daos of the Xuanmen and the eight hundred unorthodox Daos. He simply doesn't believe that they are no match for the disciples of the Three Pure Ones.

After discussing the Dao, if the West promotes itself properly, why worry about not having outstanding talents to join its ranks?

"I think this is a good idea."

Taiqing nodded slightly and looked at Yuanshi and Tongtian.

Anyway, he has no disciples, so whether it's a debate or a competition, it's none of his business.

"Discussing the Way?"

Yuanshi frowned. In his view, what Dao could a group of minor cultivators, Taiyi Golden Immortals, possibly discuss?

Tongtian paused for a moment, then echoed, "I also think this is a good idea."

Tongtian had great confidence in his eldest disciple, believing that he could easily defeat the Western disciples in any contest or debate.

At this time, the relationship between the Three Pure Ones was still quite good. Seeing that Taiqing and Shangqing both agreed, Yuanshi also agreed, "Alright, let's listen to our two junior brothers and let our disciples also discuss the Dao."

The Twelve Golden Immortals of Kunlun were all extraordinary individuals with profound blessings, deeply inheriting the legacy of the Yuqing lineage. Even in matters of Dao, Yuanshi firmly believed that they would not lose to the Western disciples.

Everyone reached a consensus, and soon the sound of golden bells rang out in the Sanqing Hall, spreading rapidly throughout the entire Kunlun Mountain.

"Is Master summoning you?"

Inside the Yuqing Daoist Temple, Guang Chengzi leaped into the air, summoned the Twelve Golden Immortals, and flew towards the Sanqing Hall.

On the other side, Zhao Gongming also woke up from his cultivation. Hearing the sound of the golden bell, he summoned the direct disciples of the Shangqing lineage and rushed to the Sanqing Hall.

Upon hearing the bell, the pharmacist and the others rushed to the Sanqing Hall without stopping!

The Three Pure Ones, Zhunti, and Jieqi have been discussing the Dao for five hundred years; even they are tired now.

When they walked out of the Sanqing Hall, they were dumbfounded.

How did Kunlun Mountain become so barren?!

Looking around, Sanqing saw that in front of the Sanqing Hall, large patches of spiritual herbs had been completely looted, revealing bare, unsightly patches of land.

Looking further into the distance, the Kunlun Mountains, which were originally layered and picturesque, seemed to have become quite bald, with several places revealing bare rocks.

Yuan Shi loved the beautiful scenery of Kunlun Mountain the most, and seeing the Kunlun Mountains so damaged, a surge of anger arose in his heart.

"Zhunti, Jieyin, is this how your disciples treat guests?"

Zhunti's face was full of embarrassment. The pharmacist and the others really have surpassed their teachers.

He never imagined that the four of them alone could have completely stripped Kunlun Mountain bare.

But who is Zhunti?

The first person to make noodles in the primordial era!

In just a moment, tears welled up in her eyes, and then she covered her face and began to cry!
