The Primordial Era: Starting with Jingwei Filling the Sea

After receiving the information from the Red-Robed Ancestor from the Golden Spirit Mother, Fang Yang soared into the sky, leaving Golden Turtle Island and heading towards Wuyi Mountain.

His last trip to Wuyi Mountain was also to obtain the Treasure-Dropping Coin. After learning of the existence of the Red-Robed Ancestor, he left without further thought.

This time, however, he was slightly more confident.

The Red-Robed Ancestor was not invincible; he had attachments and preferred to give up the chance of reincarnation rather than disintegrate.

Such people have the most obvious weaknesses.

There was no way around it; Fang Yang was a person who abided by the sect's rules. If he violated the rules, how could he have the face to criticize the Seven Immortals of Penglai and the others?

Wuyi Mountain is one of the Thirty-Six Grotto-Heavens, a place where the energy of heaven and earth converges.

From afar, Wuyi Mountain resembles a giant green dragon lying across the land. Clouds drift across its body, the aroma of tea is rich, and even the very essence of heaven and earth seems refreshed and natural under the influence of the tea's fragrance.

On the outskirts of Wuyi Mountain, there are many Taoist families who have cultivated vast tea gardens, specializing in the production of various kinds of "immortal teas."

On the plains below the mountain, countless mortals still lived. These mortals were all descendants of immortal families, but they had no opportunity to cultivate and could only live ordinary lives as mortals.

Boo!

Above Wuyi Mountain, a spatial rift appeared out of nowhere. Then, a hand, like pulling a door, pulled the spatial rift aside.

As soon as Fang Yang arrived at Wuyi Mountain, he felt an extremely pure aura of immortality rising from the human tribe below.

In the primordial world, immortals are not uncommon, but the immortal energy that Fang Yang sensed was the kind of immortal energy that could only be generated after cultivating the Shangqing Heart Method.

He released his divine sense and entered the mortal tribe.

In his mind, a female immortal appeared, graceful as a startled swan and agile as a swimming dragon.

From a mortal's perspective, the female immortal is disheveled and busy chopping wood and feeding pigs; from an immortal's perspective, she is spotless.

She stayed in this ordinary tribe as a housewife, working alongside a hunter, where they would hunt and she would weave cloth, and the couple would return home together.

"Which of my junior sisters is this? She's actually imitating the Seven Fairies?"

Seeing this, Fang Yang was baffled. A romantic had actually emerged from within the Jie Sect. However, he soon realized he was mistaken.

He did some quick calculations and realized that this female immortal was not a disciple of the Jie Sect; she was merely a rogue cultivator who had obtained a destiny to become an immortal.

As for why she returned to mortal life after becoming an immortal, Fang Yang didn't bother to speculate. Anyway, there were immortals cultivating the Shangqing Immortal Path all over the prehistoric world; one more or one less wouldn't make a difference.

"I thought one of our sect's female disciples had been tricked, but it turns out it wasn't. Never mind, business is more important."

The entrance to Wuyishan Cave Heaven is located on Yinping Peak.

Fang Yang stood before the entrance to the cave, sensing the spiritual energy within. The concentration of spiritual energy was sufficient, but its quality was far inferior to that within the Qingcheng Immortal Mansion.

Wuyishan Grotto-Heaven is only one of the Thirty-Six Grotto-Heavens, and naturally cannot be compared with Qingcheng Immortal Abode, which is one of the Ten Great Grotto-Heavens.

"I, Fang Yang, a junior disciple of the Jie Sect, have come to pay my respects to the Red-Robed Ancestor of Wuyi Mountain."

Fang Yang's voice pierced through the clouds and mist, echoing among the mountains and deeply penetrating the Wuyi Mountain Grottoes.

At this very moment, inside the cave in Wuyi Mountain, an old Taoist priest dressed in a bright red robe with a pale gray face was sitting on a cloud bed, preaching to two young Taoist priests.

The old Taoist priest used the simplest language to teach the two young Taoists Taoist methods. Unfortunately, the two young Taoists seemed unable to understand, and the more the old Taoist priest spoke, the more their brows furrowed.

"What should I do? I can't hold on much longer. Without my protection, how will my two disciples survive in this wilderness full of wolves and tigers?"

"Randeng appears kind on the surface, but he's actually a smiling tiger. He keeps saying he'll take care of my disciple, but in reality, he has ulterior motives."

"Randeng is the vice leader of the Sage Sect. I cannot kill him, nor can I hand over the Treasure-Dropping Coin to him. If he obtains the Treasure-Dropping Coin, he will surely plot against my disciple to death in order to settle his karmic debts. Fellow Daoist Hongyun's lesson is there for all to see; I cannot repeat the same mistake."

The old patriarch in red robes looked at his two disciples below, his heart filled with worry.

If it weren't for protecting his disciples, he would have already disintegrated. He was once a quasi-saint, and even if he fell from his realm, his primordial spirit could still enter reincarnation.

However, he worried that once he left, his two disciples would be left without anyone to rely on.

Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were nominally his disciples, but in reality, they were his descendants. He was the first generation of Da Hong Pao tea tree growers, while Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were the third generation.

Cao Sheng and Cao Bao were able to transform into human form through a fortuitous opportunity. The Red-Robed Ancestor doted on these two hard-won descendants.

The more he was pampered, the more love the Red-Robed Ancestor poured into it. Now, the Red-Robed Ancestor finds it very difficult to let go.

All things considered, Wuyi Mountain doesn't seem to be a place of auspicious feng shui. Whether it's a fairy or a celestial being, anyone who comes to Wuyi Mountain will be troubled by love.

Just then, the red-robed patriarch suddenly had a whim. He did some calculations with his fingers and his eyes widened in surprise.

He realized that he still had a sliver of hope!

"How is this possible! I no longer have the strength to disintegrate myself. My primordial spirit has been corrupted by the evil energy and cannot enter the cycle of reincarnation."

The old patriarch in red robes was in turmoil. Just as he was about to continue his calculations, Fang Yang's voice came in.

"A disciple of the Intercepting Sect..." the red-robed patriarch murmured, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes, "A disciple of the Sage Tongtian, has he come to seize a sliver of hope for me?"

Thinking of this, the red-robed patriarch became somewhat impatient. With a wave of his sleeve, he sent Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao into seclusion. Then, he got up and walked outside.

He was currently just a Great Luo Golden Immortal, and a severely injured one at that. Even as a disciple of a sage, he still had to maintain proper etiquette.

Upon exiting the grotto, the Red-Robed Ancestor encountered a Taiyi Golden Immortal whose magical power was beyond description. The Red-Robed Ancestor told himself that this person was a disciple of a sage and was no ordinary being.

"Greetings, Senior in Red Robe!"

Seeing the red-robed patriarch looking like he was on his deathbed, Fang Yang wasn't surprised. This was the typical appearance of someone who had suffered a Dao injury.

The old patriarch in red robes dared not presume. With great excitement, he returned the greeting: "Fellow Daoist, you are too kind. You are a disciple of a sage, and thus of the same generation as me."

The current Red Robe Ancestor has an explosive will to survive.

This is understandable. Some powerful beings at the Quasi-Saint Great Perfection even become sworn brothers with the disciples of Duobao Daoist's disciples. The Red-Robed Ancestor is merely a peer of Fang Yang, so there's nothing wrong with that.

"Since you say so, fellow Daoist in red robes, I will follow your lead."

After the two agreed to be friends as peers, the red-robed patriarch led Fang Yang into the Wuyi Mountain cave.
