Primordial Era: The Great Celestial Venerable on the Road to Mythology

Chapter 71 Rebirth of the Moon Worshipper, Martial Arts of the Human Emperor

Yao Ji handed Baiyue to Taibai Jinxing, then turned and left with Ling'er.

Bai Yue stood there, his heart filled with both trepidation and anticipation as he saw the princess off. He knew that from this moment on, his fate had been completely changed.

Venus looked him up and down, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

"Now that you are reborn, I will instruct you to worship the moon," Taibai said. His voice was not loud, but it possessed a power that made people dare not disobey.

"Yes, Star Lord," Bai Yue replied respectfully.

He knew in his heart that the leader of the Baiyue Cult in the world of Legend of Sword and Fairy was dead, and the one standing here now was Baiyue, the lucky one who had been favored by the Princess and given a new life. All the past had vanished like smoke. The road ahead had to be started anew.

"Hmm." Venus nodded and continued, "Let me briefly tell you about this world. This world is the Primordial Era, created by the Great God Pangu when he separated heaven and earth. Its vast power is far beyond what your world can compare to—"

Taibai gave a general account of the origins, structure, and distribution of power of the prehistoric world from beginning to end.

From the creation of the world by Pangu to the initial calamity of the Dragon and Han dynasties, from the struggle between the Wu and Yao tribes to the Dao Ancestor's union with the Dao, and now to the establishment of the Heavenly Court and the coexistence of the Six Sages, each and every event, though only briefly recounted, has already deeply shaken Baiyue, leaving him feeling as if he were lost in a fog.

"—Here, strength reigns supreme, and the strong are above all. One must be respectful to the strong and never neglect the proper etiquette." Taibai paused, his gaze falling on Baiyue's face.

"Of course, as a member of the Heavenly Court, you need not fear anyone. The majesty of the Heavenly Court is such that even saints must show it some respect."

At the very top of the primordial world, apart from Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the six Sages and His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor of my Heavenly Court are the strongest.

Our Heavenly Court is one of the most powerful forces in the primordial world. Therefore, basically no one would dare to provoke us.

.

Bai Yue felt a chill run down her spine, thinking to herself: The Heavenly Court actually holds such a high position? No wonder Her Highness the Eldest Princess moved about in that world as if it were her own backyard.

Venus seemed to see through his thoughts and continued, "You are quite fortunate to have been chosen by Her Highness the Princess and summoned from the outer world."

In the modern primordial world, countless Golden Immortals aspire to enter the Heavenly Court, but only a handful can pass the trials.

"You are but a mortal, and a mortal from a lower world at that. To be favored by Her Highness the Princess is an immense blessing. You must be grateful."

Bai Yue bowed his head and said respectfully, "Your subordinate understands."

Taibai continued, "Following Her Highness the Eldest Princess is equivalent to following His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor. As long as you do your job well, becoming a Taiyi Golden Immortal will be a piece of cake."

A Taiyi Golden Immortal is roughly equivalent to the creator god of your world. Do you understand what to do now?

"Understood!" Bai Yue replied again, secretly vowing to cherish this hard-won opportunity and never let down the expectations of the Princess and the Star Lord.

Venus nodded, raised his hand, and a purple-veined peach appeared in his palm. The peach was pink and white, with a fragrant aroma, exuding a rich life force and spiritual energy; it was clearly no ordinary fruit.

"Eat it." Taibai handed over the peach. "Your strength is too weak. A mortal cannot survive in the Heavenly Court. Improve your strength first, then you will have a foothold."

Bai Yue accepted the peach with both hands, his heart filled with awe. The spiritual energy contained in this peach was countless times greater than all the spiritual energy he had accumulated in his entire life of cultivation. He dared not delay and immediately ate it.

Venus pointed out again, and a beam of light entered Baiyue's brow, imprinting a simple and practical cultivation technique into his sea of ​​consciousness.

"If you follow this method to circulate your Qi, I will lend you a hand."

Bai Yue sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to circulate his internal energy. Venus pointed a finger, and a profound power surged into Bai Yue's body, helping him refine the immense medicinal power of the peaches.

The medicinal power surged through Bai Yue's meridians like a torrent, widening them and filling his dantian wherever it passed. Bai Yue's cultivation level rose at a visible speed, unstoppable and unimpeded, until it finally came to a slow halt upon achieving immortality.

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Yue opened his eyes. He looked down at his hands, feeling the vast, boundless power within him, and an indescribable sense of awe welled up inside him.

"This is... Immortal?" he murmured to himself.

He never imagined that one day he would become so powerful. In this Heavenly Court, it was merely a peach of immortality, a cultivation technique, and a star lord's casual gesture that allowed him to transform from a mortal to an immortal. The Heavenly Court's foundation is unfathomable.

"Alright." Venus withdrew his finger and said calmly, "You have entered the Immortal Realm, and there is no problem with your survival in the Heavenly Court. Go, go find Her Highness the Princess. This humble Taoist needs to cultivate."

With a casual wave of his hand, a gentle magical power enveloped Baiyue and instantly sent her out of the main hall.

Bai Yue felt a blur before his eyes, and when he came to his senses, he was already standing outside a peach grove. The peach blossoms were in full bloom, and the fragrance was intoxicating; it was the Heavenly Peach Garden.

Venus gazed in the direction where Baiyue had disappeared, shook his head slightly, and murmured, "He's a smart man. I hope he doesn't go astray."

He didn't tell Baiyue too many rules. Baiyue was a smart man; he knew how to do some things on his own without being taught.

In the Peach Garden, peach trees form a forest, and the flowers bloom in a riot of color.

Yao Ji was sitting under a tree with Zhao Ling'er and three female immortals, enjoying fresh peaches and chatting.

Those three female immortals were none other than the three sisters, Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao.

Bai Yue was teleported to the outside of the Peach Garden and dared not enter rashly. He stood at a distance, waiting quietly for the Princess to summon him.

Yao Ji glanced at him but didn't pay him any attention immediately, continuing to chat and laugh with the Three Immortals.

"Princess, is this the disciple you brought back from the outer world?" Yunxiao's gaze fell on Zhao Ling'er, her eyes filled with curiosity.

"That's right." Yao Ji patted Ling'er's head and smiled. "Ling'er, these are Sister Yunxiao, Sister Qiongxiao, and Sister Bixiao. They are all celestial maidens from the Heavenly Court. You should get to know them better in the future."

Zhao Ling'er bowed obediently: "Ling'er greets the three elder sisters."

Bixiao said with a grin, "Little sister is so cute. Here, have a peach."

She placed a peach in Zhao Ling'er's hand, and Zhao Ling'er took it with a sweet smile: "Thank you, Sister Bixiao."

The women burst into laughter.

Bai Yue stood at a distance, waiting quietly. He was neither impatient nor restless. He knew that in this Heavenly Court, he was merely the most insignificant being. If he wanted to gain a foothold, if he wanted to rise above others, he could only do so step by step.

On the vast, untamed land, there lived human tribes.

Under Fuxi's guidance, the human race developed rapidly, making great strides every day.

He taught the body-refining techniques he had derived to the people of various tribes, which greatly improved the physical fitness of the human race, increased hunting efficiency, and significantly reduced casualties.

Fuxi named this martial art "Wu" (武), meaning to use human strength to move with the power of heaven; this is the way of martial arts.

At the same time, he also passed down the Bagua (Eight Trigrams) derived from the Hetu and Luoshu.

The Eight Trigrams contain the profound principles of heaven and earth, the changes of yin and yang, and the generation and restraint of the five elements. After studying them, the wisdom of humankind greatly improved their understanding of heaven and earth and all things, and various inventions and creations emerged one after another.

Humanity's fortunes were at their zenith, and they had become an undeniable behemoth in the primordial world. All tribes united under Fuxi's command, conquering east and west, expanding their territory, and leaving their footprints across the vast primordial land.

As the Human Emperor, Fuxi resided in the ancestral temple, and his cultivation had long since reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Due to his practice of martial arts, his body was like that of a primordial divine beast, incomparably powerful, and every move he made possessed the might to split mountains and shatter rocks.

Moreover, by sheer chance, he obtained a drop of essence blood, which he then integrated into himself, granting him the true form of martial arts: a human body with a snake tail.

The essence blood contained immense power and profound Daoist principles, which not only greatly increased his strength but also significantly improved his talent and physical constitution.

Of course, this "coincidence" was actually a gift secretly given to him by a reclusive woman who was secretly spying on him. It's just that Fuxi was unaware of this.
