Primordial Era: Innate gourd vine, self-dismemberment

Moreover, throughout the primordial world, those who dared not be easily provoked invariably formed groups.

For example, the Three Pure Ones formed a group, Nuwa and Fuxi formed a group, Dijun and Taiyi formed a group, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches also formed a group... while those who did not form a group, such as Rahu being attacked by four against one, and Kunpeng being forced to join the demon race...

With their help, no one should dare to provoke him easily. It will be much easier for him to travel through the prehistoric world and compete for the holy position in Zixiao Palace.

Overjoyed, Yuan Yan instructed, "You are only at the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal, your cultivation is too low, you can't help me at all. First, each of you should use the Great Dao of Reincarnation, the Great Dao of the World, and the Great Dao of the Mind to transform your Dao Fruit, then cultivate the Nine Evolutions of Yin and Yang, and then break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal."

"By the way, now that you have taken human form, you should also have names, and you shouldn't share one with me."

"Alright then, the three of you shall each take Yuanlun, Yuanjie, and Yuanling as your Daoist titles."

As for who uses which Taoist title, that depends on which major path they choose to cultivate.

The main path of reincarnation is called Yuan Lun, the main path of the world is called Yuan Jie, and the main path of the mind is called Yuan Ling.

"We understand!" the three of us replied.

They were originally one person, and without any formalities, they sat cross-legged and began to nurture their transformation Dao Fruits with the Dao Fruits of Reincarnation, World, and Mind.

Meanwhile, Yuan Yan once again took stock of his family's assets, considering how to distribute them.

At this moment, the innate gourd vine had already been dismembered by the four of them. Unless they revealed their true forms, it was essentially gone.

There are seven innate gourds. Among them, the Hunyuan Wandao Gourd is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure containing thirty-eight innate divine restrictions. The other six innate gourds are all high-grade innate spiritual treasures, but except for the Chaos Gourd which contains thirty-two innate divine restrictions, the others only contain twenty-seven innate divine restrictions.

As for the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, after splitting and growing over a hundred eons, although it has become somewhat stronger, it is still a top-grade innate spiritual treasure with thirty-nine innate divine restrictions.

After pondering for a moment, Yuan Yan had a distribution plan in mind:

He possessed the two supreme innate spiritual treasures, the Hunyuan Wandao Gourd and the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, while his three Dao bodies each obtained two innate gourds.

The Yuan Realm should possess the Chaos Gourd and the Immortal-Slaying Gourd. The Chaos Gourd contains the Great Dao of Chaos, Spacetime, etc., and the Yuan Realm can open up worlds within it and practice, evolve, and perfect its own Great Dao. The Immortal-Slaying Gourd contains the Great Dao of Slaughter, Cause and Effect, and Breaking Laws, and is unparalleled in killing.

The Yuanling should possess the Soul-Scattering Gourd and the Spirit-Capturing Gourd (Demon-Summoning Gourd). The Soul-Scattering Gourd contains the Great Dao of Soul and Confusion, while the Spirit-Capturing Gourd contains the Great Dao of Soul, Summoning, and Control. Both should greatly benefit the Yuanling in evolving and perfecting the Great Dao of the Mind.

Yuan Lun possesses both the Water and Fire Gourd and the Pregnancy Gourd. The Water and Fire Gourd contains the Great Dao of Water and Fire, the Five Elements, and Destruction, while the Pregnancy Gourd contains the Great Dao of Nurturing, Treasures, and Creation. It can nurture and enhance the grade of treasures, including innate spiritual treasures, and can even reverse acquired to innate. However, this is subject to certain limitations. It takes an extremely long time, and the highest grade cannot exceed that of the Pregnancy Gourd. Although it is not a perfect match, there is no other way.

After taking stock and distributing his assets, Yuan Yan immersed himself in enlightenment and cultivation. He refined the innate divine restrictions of the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, comprehended the laws of the Great Dao, perfected his Yin-Yang Great Dao, and continued to absorb innate spiritual energy and Daoist inspiration to nurture the Primordial Myriad Dao Gourd.

Time flies, and four or five centuries have passed in the blink of an eye!

Suddenly, "Boom! Boom! Boom..." Terrifying roars shook the entire primordial world, even Mount Buzhou was shaken, and Yuan Yan, Yuan Lun, Yuan Jie, and Yuan Ling were all awakened from their enlightenment.

Along with this terrifying tremor, a sound that resounded throughout the primordial world also came:

"Hahaha... Hongjun, how about I give you this great gift? You've cut off my path to enlightenment, so I'll cut off your path to transcendence! This isn't over yet!"

"Heaven above, I, the Demon Ancestor Rahu, today offer my true spirit, the origin of the demonic path, and the western earth veins as a sacrifice! I wish to transform into an extraterrestrial demon and establish the demon realm beyond the primordial wilderness!"

From this day forward: the Dao rises while the Demonic Ones fall, and vice versa; the Dao and the Demonic Ones cannot coexist! All cultivators of the primordial world who seek the Dao will inevitably face demonic tribulations, giving rise to inner demons! The higher the Dao rises, the higher the Demonic One rises! The Demonic Path will never perish, forever entangled with us! With the Twelfth Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, I will suppress the Demonic Path's fortune!

"The Demon Realm—Stand!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the primordial energy released from the earth's veins by Rahu's self-destruction, Rahu's true spirit, the origin of the demonic path, and countless surviving demons all headed towards the chaos beyond the heavens.

Under the great power of Heaven, a realm of extraterrestrial demons was created, and the innate, indestructible true spirit of the Demon Ancestor Rahu was suppressed within it.

"Something has happened in the West!" Yuan Lun said.

Two multiverses before, he almost simultaneously transformed his Dao Fruit into a Great Luo Dao Fruit with the Yuan Realm and Yuan Spirit, completing nine Yin-Yang transformations and breaking through to the early stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

As a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he could naturally sense that terrifying tremor coming from the western continent of the primordial world, and he also sensed that heaven and earth seemed to be wailing.

"It seems the battle between the Dao and the Demonic has come to an end!" Yuan Yan remarked with emotion.

He had been waiting for this day for a long time, and it had finally come. He could finally go out and travel!

"I plan to travel and see this wonderful prehistoric world, and seek opportunities and good fortune. What about you? Do you want to leave with me?" Yuan Yan asked.

"Of course!" Yuan Ling replied! Yuan Lun and Yuan Jie also nodded in agreement.

"Alright, let's go in different directions. First, we'll climb Mount Buzhou and search it thoroughly. After that, I'll go to the East Sea to see if I can find the Three Immortal Islands and check if the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus and the Primordial Measuring Ruler are really there. You can go to the West, North, and South respectively!"

"Can!"

"Now that we have been born, we can start planning for merit and good fortune! What are your plans, Venerable One?" Yuan Lun asked.

"Merit and good fortune are not so easy to obtain!"

Yuan Yan felt helpless. It wasn't that he hadn't thought about accumulating merit and good fortune. In the more than one hundred years within the canyon, he made many attempts based on his previous life.

For example, making pots and pans, starting fire by rubbing sticks together, and creating musical instruments, chess pieces, calligraphy, and paintings... but none of them worked.

According to his deductions, to gain merit and fortune, one must either conform to and promote the development of the prehistoric world, or benefit the prehistoric world. The ideas in his mind are either not the right time, or he simply cannot do them, or he does not want to do them.

For example, he could create a faction, subdue all the races of the primordial world, and then swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao, which would surely bring him merit and fortune. However, that would involve him in the great calamity of the Lich King, which he naturally did not want.

For example, if one deduces a new script and promotes it to the prehistoric world, making it the only or universal script in the prehistoric world, one can also gain merit and fortune.

But who are you? All the ancient races have their own writing systems, why should I use yours?

For example, he tried to establish the four seasons, but he had neither the relevant innate spiritual treasures nor the relevant authority, so he was unable to establish it at all.

For example, he could deduce a formation that could continuously transform chaotic energy into innate spiritual energy to replenish the primordial world, but his understanding of formations was limited, so he simply couldn't do it!
