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

Chapter 278 The Art of Blank Paper - Spirit Pearl Descends to the Mortal Realm

It is highly likely that this was the work of the Western religion, as the West's art of bewitching people is unparalleled.

Especially the Bodhi seed in Zhunti's hand; even a quasi-saint-level powerhouse would be unable to escape having their mind bewitched if they fell for it.

Zhao Gongming carefully examined Di Xin for a few moments, then smiled and asked.

"After you ascend the throne, is there anything you wish to do?"

Emperor Xin said in a deep voice, "When the barbarians bow down and all directions submit, when the granaries are full, people know etiquette; when they are well-fed and clothed, they know honor and shame. Let all the people of the Great Shang Dynasty live a life where they are well-fed and clothed."

"Alright, then handing this over to you is definitely the right thing to do."

Zhao Gongming nodded in satisfaction, took out the Human Path to Kongtong Seal, and handed it to Emperor Xin.

"This is?"

Di Xin looked puzzled.

"This is the Kongtong Seal, a treasure of our human race. It was previously enshrined in the Human Race Temple in the East Sea. Today, I'm taking this treasure from the temple and lending it to you for a while."

Zhao Gongming explained.

Upon hearing that it was the Kongtong Seal, a supreme treasure of humanity, Emperor Xin was filled with awe. Although he was not a cultivator, the entire Shang Dynasty was not lacking in cultivators.

For example, Grand Tutor Wen Zhong was a disciple of the Golden Spirit Mother, one of the nine direct disciples of the Jie Sect. Another example is Prime Minister Bigan, who was a student of the Sage of Literature Cangjie and possessed a literary talent that was earth-shattering.

The Kongtong Seal is an unparalleled treasure of humanity, which has always been enshrined in the ancestral land of humanity and the holy temple of humanity. It is extremely precious!

Di Xin took the Kongtong Seal, which immediately transformed into a golden light and rushed into Di Xin's Nigongwan.

In the darkness, the humanistic aura surrounding Emperor Xin became even stronger.

Seeing this, Zhao Gongming nodded inwardly and put down a piece of gravel.

The reason Zhao Gongming went to the ancestral land of the human race to retrieve the Kongtong Seal was...

This was to leverage the humanistic fortune within the Kongtong Seal to enhance Emperor Xin's imperial fortune.

Now that the Kongtong Seal has returned to its rightful place and is located in Emperor Xin's Nigongwan, it is equivalent to having a double blessing. At this time, Emperor Xin's human emperor fortune is even greater than that of the three ancestors of the human race.

With such a strong imperial aura protecting him, even if all the saints descended and used their supreme methods, they would absolutely be unable to affect Di Xin.

With his own careful guidance, Zhao Gongming couldn't imagine how the Shang Dynasty could lose to the civil and military officials.

As for the legendary destiny, Zhao Gongming didn't care at all. As long as the event hadn't happened, the so-called destiny was just a false number.

He always had only four words in his heart: "Man can conquer nature."

On the other hand, Zhao Gongming stayed in Chaoge City to teach Emperor Xin the art of governing the country, and also taught him some strange and ingenious skills.

Examples include the magical plow for tilling the land, the salt purification technology, and the sugar purification technology. Among these, the most important is papermaking.

At that time, the Shang Dynasty was still using bamboo slips, which were cumbersome to write on and inconvenient to carry, making office work very inconvenient. However, if they switched to using blank paper, their efficiency would increase several times over.

Emei Mountain, Luofu Cave, Chen Jiugong, and Yao Shaosi calculated the days, and then set off together, flying towards the shore of the East China Sea to the ancestral court of the Jie Sect.

Both of them are now cultivators at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, and it didn't take them long to arrive at the East Sea.

The two first went to Jin'ao Island and reported to the Tongtian Sect Leader some things that Zhao Gongming had instructed them to do.

They then set off without stopping, heading towards the Taoist temple of Duobao near the East China Sea.

In Biyou Palace, Tongtian looked with great interest at the curved plow brought by Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi, as well as a stack of snow-white, silky papers, and purified sugar and salt, feeling quite amazed.

Many years ago, he also descended to the mortal realm. At that time, the things used by humans were very crude. He never expected that they would have reached such an amazing level!

At Duobao Daoist Temple, Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi finally made it to the island, where they saw a dashing woman in a red Daoist robe practicing swordsmanship. Her swordsmanship was exquisite, and Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi clapped and cheered.

"Junior Sister Huoling, it's been many years. Your swordsmanship has become even more exquisite."

Chen Jiugong, Yao Shaosi stepped forward and smiled.

The woman in red was none other than the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, a disciple of Duobao.

With a wave of her hand, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit put away her Tai'a sword and said modestly, "Senior Brother Chen and Senior Brother Yao are too kind. The way of swordsmanship is profound and extensive. I'm afraid I haven't even entered the door yet. If our Grandmaster heard what you two senior brothers said, he would probably laugh his head off."

Chen Jiugong, Yao Shaosi, and the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit exchanged a few words, then Chen Jiugong asked, "Is my Uncle Duobao able to cultivate at the Daoist temple?"

"Our teacher is currently in seclusion. What brings you two senior brothers here?"

"My master said that he wants Senior Brother Duobao to go to Da Shang and Chen Tang Pass. He said that the Spirit Pearl beside the Goddess Nuwa is about to be born, and he wants Uncle Duobao to go and take it as a disciple."

Upon hearing that it was Zhao Gongming's order, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit dared not be careless. "I will go and summon my master right away. My two senior brothers, come with me."

Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi followed the Holy Mother of Fire to the Treasure Cave.

The Holy Mother of Fire gently shook the golden bell hanging in front of the cave. After a while, the door opened, and the plump, fair-skinned Duobao, dressed in a golden Taoist robe, walked out.

Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi immediately repeated what they had said to Huo Ling to Duobao.

"Oh, so the spirit pearl who served the goddess Nuwa has been reincarnated?"

Duobao had some impression of Dragon Ball. He remembered that it was formed from a chaotic spirit stone next to Nuwa, and that it got along quite well with Yang Chan.

Unexpectedly, he was reincarnated during the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods.

"That's right. That spirit pearl is very mischievous and kind-hearted. It has been stuck at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm for a long time and has been unable to attain the Great Luo realm. Therefore, Goddess Nuwa allowed it to reincarnate and cultivate again, so that it might be able to break through the shackles and achieve the Great Luo realm."

"I see!"

Duobao nodded. "Okay, I'll go to Chentang Pass now."

Duobao was an impatient person; he left without hesitation, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing!

"Senior Brother Chen, Senior Brother Yao, why don't we stay on the island for a few more days and spar a bit?"

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit said with great interest that Duobao only had one disciple.

He usually only guides her in cultivation, but he lacks practical experience in actual combat.

"No, no, Master has instructed us to do something, we can't delay."

Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi shook their heads with smiles.

"Oh well."

The Holy Mother of Fire frowned, her delicate nose and eyebrows furrowing.

"Once we're done with our work, we'll definitely come back to the island to find our junior sister and have a good spar with her."

Chen Jiugong, Yao Shaosi quickly added, and only then did the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit smile with joy.

After bidding farewell to the Holy Mother of Fire, Chen Jiugong, and Yao Shaosi, they continued on their journey to the Daoist temple of Xuan Turtle, the vice leader of the Jie Sect.

The island where the Xuan Turtle lived was covered with giant turtles crawling around, leaving almost no place for them to set foot.

It took Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi a great deal of effort to finally awaken the Xuan Turtle.

The black tortoise awoke from its cultivation, scratching its head, and asked, puzzled, "What brings you two to my dojo?"
