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

Chapter 334 Inviting Kong Xuanxuan to Come Out of Seclusion

Besides, even if Zhao Gongming didn't make a move, the strength of Xuan Gui and Kong Xuan was enough to dominate the prehistoric world.

In the two Western religions, Chan and Chan are so powerful that unless a sage intervenes, they are capable of sweeping away everything. This reflects Zhao Gongming's confidence in their strength.

At this time, in the capital city of Chaoge, the capital of the Great Shang Dynasty, there was a grand, antique-style mansion nestled against the mountains and beside the water.

Kong Xuan, dressed in a five-colored robe and holding a folding fan, was reading various books written by sages from the Shang Dynasty.

These people, though mostly ordinary people with a lifespan of only a hundred years, used their life experiences to compose poems and write articles that contained profound truths and the unity of heaven and man.

Over the years, Kong Xuan has been engrossed in reading books and incidentally responsible for protecting the safety of Chaoge, and has not engaged in cultivation.

However, his cultivation level has improved even further, surpassing that of countless years of secluded cultivation.

As the sun rose higher, Kong Xuan put down the book in his hand, summoned the maidservant serving him, and ordered her to prepare a meal.

During his years in the Great Shang Dynasty, Kong Xuan restrained his Taoist cultivation, no longer considering himself a primordial deity, but a complete mortal, rising with the sun and sleeping with the sunset.

The maid nodded in response and retreated lightly. The large courtyard was empty except for the stone table and stone benches.

Suddenly, Kong Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked up at the sky, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Fellow Daoist has come from afar, why do you not meet me face to face, but instead hide from me?"

"It's been a few years, and Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan's skills have improved even more. I admire you."

In mid-air, a shadow flashed by, and Zhao Gongming's figure appeared in the spot.

Zhao Gongming originally hid in the shadows to see how Kong Xuan was living in Da Shang, but he didn't expect to be discovered by Kong Xuan as soon as he arrived.

While part of the reason is that Zhao Gongming did not fully conceal his aura, this would have been completely undetectable to Kong Xuan several years ago during the Battle of Beihai.

This also shows that descending to the mortal realm actually allowed Kong Xuan, who had not made any progress for a long time, to make progress again.

Upon seeing that it was indeed Zhao Gongming, Kong Xuan smiled slightly, as if he were meeting an old friend.

"Fellow Daoist Gongming, you're not cultivating on Mount Emei, so what brings you here?"

Zhao Gongming casually replied, "I have come here today to ask Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan to do me a favor."

A flicker of excitement flashed in Kong Xuan's eyes. "What is it? Tell me."

Although the two had not actually met many times, they spoke as if they were old friends who had known each other for many years.

"My disciple, King Di Xin of Shang, is preparing to engage in a decisive battle with Xiqi at Tongguan Pass. The scope of this battle is unimaginable. I'm afraid that the elite forces of the Chan and Western sects will be mobilized. I hope you can go to Tongguan Pass and lend a hand to my Jie Sect's Vice Leader, Xuan Gui."

Zhao Gongming briefly explained his purpose to Kong Xuan.

After speaking, Zhao Gongming paused and added, "This is not an order, but a request between friends."

"friend."

Kong Xuan was stunned. As the eldest son of Yuan Feng and the number one genius of the Phoenix Clan, he was expected to achieve great things by the entire Phoenix Clan. Yet, it seemed that he had never had any friends throughout the millions of years.

The Phoenix Clan members who cultivated with him kept their distance from him, simply because the clan elders had long ago given strict instructions not to disturb his cultivation.

The elders always had a stern look on their faces, and they always only had four words for him: "Cultivate well!"

As for his only younger brother, although they were blood relatives, he was heartless and had nothing in common with him, so he could not be called a friend.

He cultivated step by step and finally became the number one person in the Phoenix Clan, making the cultivation environment of the Phoenix Clan much better than before. However, he was still lonely and had no friends.

Kong Xuan looked at Zhao Gongming with a focused gaze, and his Dao heart, which had been frozen by the iceberg for millennia, melted a little without him noticing. "Alright, since it's a friend's request, then I agree."

A warm smile appeared on Zhao Gongming's face.

Soon, Zhao Gongming left Chaoge, and after Kong Xuan left a clone to oversee Chaoge, he went to Tongguan alone.

That clone was created by Kong Xuan using his own blood essence. Although it could only last for a hundred years, it was enough to exert the strength of a quasi-saint and to oversee the Great Shang Dynasty!

At Tongguan, the most important pass under heaven, Liu Er, Sanxiao, Xuan Gui, and Kong Xuan all arrived. When Yang Jian and the others saw Xuan Gui, their hearts, which had been pounding with anxiety, immediately settled down.

I vaguely remember the scene of the black tortoise resisting the sage's attack at Guanjiang Estuary.

Saints are beings of immense stature; even a casual strike from them is a power they cannot withstand.

However, Senior Xuan Turtle blocked it without getting hurt, which shows how powerful he is!

Huang Gun, Han Rong, Xu Gai, and Xu Fang were also full of confidence, conserving their energy and training their troops, ready for the big battle.

Meanwhile, in the Shang Dynasty's capital, Chaoge, the latest crossbows and cannons were continuously being put into service.

We are just waiting for the Xiqi army to arrive so we can utterly defeat them.

At Shouyang Mountain, in the Eight Views Palace, Xuandu once again came to pay his respects to Taiqing Laozi. Taiqing looked up at the calamity energy that blotted out the sky and exhaled a breath of turbid air.

"Things have come to this point, and no matter how unwilling you are to enter this calamity, you have no choice but to go. Xuandu, you should go down the mountain on your own."

Xuan Du looked confused. "Master, what should I do?"

Taiqing's expression remained calm. "Once you reach the foot of the mountain, you'll naturally know what to do. Go down the mountain."

After Taiqing finished speaking, he waved his hand, and an invisible magical force rose up, directly teleporting Xuandu down the mountain.

After Xuandu left, Taiqing looked at the many true spirits on the Investiture of the Gods list beside him, and his expression gradually became serious.

The foundation of human education is moral education. Now, the human race is at its zenith, and the human way is flourishing. However, the human way has become increasingly domineering, and it is receiving less and less support.

The Jie Sect has developed rapidly in recent years, becoming the largest sect in the prehistoric world. Its disciples, in both quantity and quality, far surpass other sects.

Taiqing remained silent for a long time before a voice slowly rose from the Eight Trigrams Palace, "Junior Brother Tongtian, I'm sorry."

Half a month later, the Xiqi army finally arrived. Ji Fa led 500,000 elite troops to Tongguan Pass, accompanied by countless Chan and Western Sect masters.

Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, Taiyi Zhenren, Yu Ding Zhenren, Randeng Daoren, Antarctic Immortal, the four direct descendants of the West, and Bai Lian Tongzi are all included.

Such a lineup is incredibly luxurious in this era of rampant calamity and many powerful cultivators living in seclusion; it could even easily annihilate some medium-sized Daoist sects.

At the foot of Tongguan Pass, Guang Chengzi slowly stepped forward, weighing the Fantian Seal in his hand. Looking at the empty city walls of Tongguan, a cold expression appeared on his face, and he spoke loudly.

"The disciples of the Jie Sect have always boasted of having ten thousand immortals pay homage, fearless and undeterred. Yet today, with my massive army pressing in, they dare not even show their faces. Why is that?"
