The primordial era began with the mythological age.

Although Qinglong didn't outwardly know that Shennong was the reincarnation of the Earthly Sovereign, he had more or less guessed it.

Juling was too close to the birthplace of Shennong, and Shennong's talent was also extremely amazing.

The presence of one of the two conditions is not a big deal, but the presence of both conditions makes Shennong's identity highly questionable.

However, even though they made a discovery, the Azure Dragon Clan pretended not to know, so they arranged for the dragon maidens of the dragon clan to come and introduce them to the Shennong Clan.

If we could form a marriage alliance with the dragon clan like Fuxi did, that would be the best outcome.

It doesn't matter if it's not possible; it's good for young people to form friendships.

As for whether this will offend Julingshi... who knows that Shennongshi was the reincarnation of the Earth Emperor?

When Shennong entered the palace, Qinglong, following precedent, bestowed upon him a primordial spiritual treasure on behalf of the Heavenly Court.

This innate spiritual treasure is a large cauldron.

However, unlike the top-grade innate spiritual treasure of the Lingyang clan, this innate spiritual treasure is not yet fully formed; it is only an embryo, and its innate spiritual light is still evolving.

Shennong was overjoyed when he saw the cauldron embryo.

To Him, this cauldron embryo was more precious than a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

Because He Himself created His own unified divine power, called the Shennong Cauldron.

With this cauldron embryo, He can refine the most suitable innate spiritual treasure for Himself, and use it as the innate spiritual treasure for attaining enlightenment.

This is better than refining an acquired spiritual treasure yourself.

There is no difference in power between innate and acquired spiritual treasures of the same level and type.

However, innate spiritual treasures have a huge advantage that acquired spiritual treasures do not possess.

That is the self-evolution of the Great Dao.

In the universe, every innate spiritual treasure is part of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, possessing the characteristic of self-evolution.

Theoretically speaking, the upper limit of any innate spiritual treasure is the upper limit of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Acquired spiritual treasures do not have this characteristic. To enhance their spirit, acquired spiritual treasures need to be refined by their owners, who must infuse them with their own Dao. Innate spiritual treasures do not need this; they can absorb the Dao of Heaven and Earth and the Dao of their owners to evolve on their own.

When it comes to the Supreme Treasure, the difference between innate and acquired qualities is further reduced.

For those who have attained enlightenment, their acquired treasures are also considered innate, and they will automatically absorb the master's Dao to evolve and improve.

This aligns with the principle of using treasures to prove one's path.

The difference lies in the order of proving one's Dao and refining one's treasure.

After bestowing upon the embryo of the spiritual treasure, the Azure Dragon clan introduced their descendants to the Shennong clan.

Shennong understood their intentions and went with the flow. After paying his respects, he went to the side hall to talk with Lingyang and the others, engaging in philosophical discussions.

After Shennong, Haohuang, Feijing, Aojue, Donghu, and others also entered the palace to receive rewards.

However, only the top ten are qualified to be received by the Azure Dragon Clan.

The rewards are mostly acquired spiritual treasures, unifying supernatural powers, or divine pills and immortal pills.

For example, Hao Huang, who came in third place, received a Five Organs Divine Pill.

The rewards gradually decrease from the first place to the last place.

Even the last person received a considerable reward, such as a gentle primordial chaotic energy, which was enough to save a lot of time in accumulating cultivation to evolve the myriad heavens within their body.

Of course, they weren't the only ones to receive the rewards.

This also includes those who have died in battle and are still in the cycle of reincarnation, or those who have been reincarnated but have not yet returned.

Although for those who die in battle, everything they gained on the battlefield of myriad realms will be reset to zero after death, their merits will still be recognized by the Heavenly Court, and there will still be a corresponding evaluation of their merits, followed by rewards.

While Qinglong and others were distributing rewards to those who had made contributions in the Battle of Myriad Realms, in the Great Luo Heaven, in the Mi Luo Palace, the Six Emperors, many Primordial Gods and Primordial Golden Immortals of the Primordial World were all present.

At this moment, everyone's gaze fell on the figures in the center of the hall.

Zhen Yuanzi, Shangqing, Julingshi, Fuxishi, Nuwashi, Gonggongshi, Zhurongshi, and many other deities and immortals.

These people are not only those who have just returned from the battlefield of myriad worlds, but also those who died in battle and those who have returned after reincarnation.

Although some people have not been able to cultivate themselves into gods or great immortals, they are still here today.

In this battle across countless realms, the Gods and Great Luo Golden Immortals are the ones who have killed the most enemies.

Zhen Yuanzi, who wasn't ranked number one, was busy coordinating and putting out fires everywhere with Hongyun.

It is not Shangqing, who is second on the list of those who attain enlightenment.

Shangqing is powerful and skilled in killing, but he also enjoys challenges. Those he kills are at least on par with his own cultivation level.

Therefore, in terms of battle achievements, the first place belongs to Ju Ling Shi, who ranks third on the Dao Achievement Ranking.

She would kill and suppress any enemy she encountered, and then perform a sacrificial ritual, almost imitating the path of Taiyi's rise to power.

The second-ranked ancestral witch is Qiangliang, the third is Shebishi, and then Shangqing.

Next came Ancestor Styx, Ancestor Kunpeng, and others.

As for Fuxi and Nuwa, the former ranked eleventh and the latter twelfth, respectively.

Ahead of them were the warlike ancestral witches Gonggong and Zhurong.

On the cloud bed formed by the altar of heaven and earth, Donghuang Taiyi's gaze swept over the gods and golden immortals in the hall, and then his words became law, bestowing titles upon them.

Juling is the Earth Mother Primordial Sovereign, the Great Earth God!

Gonggong, the Ancestral Witch, is the God of Change in the Northeast Heaven; Styx, the Old Ancestor, is the God of the Nether Heaven in the Northwest; Zhurong, the Ancestral Witch, is the God of the Yang Heaven in the Southeast; and Zhenyuanzi is the God of the Zhu Heaven in the Southwest.

By this time, the primordial world had already bestowed titles upon ten Dao Gods.

If we add Doumu Yuanjun, the Star Goddess, and Houtu, the Netherworld Goddess, then there are twelve.

The three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man are all contained within it, and all the positions of the Dao Gods in the primordial world each have their own masters.

Of course, since Doumu Yuanjun Ziguang Furen relinquished the position of Ziwei Emperor, the position of Star God of the Dao became vacant. However, this position is usually not conferred as a Dao God, but is reserved for Ziwei Emperor.

However, the Azure Dragon Clan and others of the Five Directions Dao Gods were also well aware that, apart from the Jade Clan who had not yet attained enlightenment, they, as those who had attained enlightenment, would not remain in this position for long.

Perhaps at most two more cycles of time, if he cannot truly be in harmony with the Dao, or be in accord with the Dao, then he must truly relinquish his divine position and make way for future generations.

Shangqing and others would obviously have more time to align themselves with the divine and the Dao, and to unite with the Dao.

Being conferred the title of Dao God is completely different from cultivating oneself to become a Dao God or merging with the Dao.

One is the one who holds the power of the divine way and controls the great way of heaven and earth.

One is to copy this part of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and make it completely one's own Dao cultivation and power.

After bestowing the title of Dao God, Donghuang Taiyi said, "The merits of Juling Shi are not worthy of the title of Dao God. This treasure is destined for you, so I shall bestow it upon you."

As soon as he finished speaking, a divine light flew out and landed in front of Ju Ling Shi.

As everyone looked over, they saw a spirit pearl that shimmered with an earthy yellow divine light, but had many cracks and was incomplete.

Innate Treasure!

Moreover, Yuqing, Taiqing, and others were not unfamiliar with this treasure, as they were Dao provers from the past chaotic era.

In the last great war, the Taiyi clan suppressed many Daoists. Although they were later released, their treasures were never returned.

Many treasures were damaged, but some were suppressed intact.

This innate treasure is clearly not intact, missing about a third of its original size, but that does not change its status as an innate treasure.

Earth-opening pearl!

A treasure from the Earth God.

Ju Lingshi accepted the treasure with both hands, then bowed deeply, saying, "Ju Lingshi thanks Your Majesty for this treasure!"

Donghuang Taiyi nodded slightly, and then another divine light flew out and landed in front of Shangqing, saying, "This treasure is called the Six Soul Banner, and it is destined for you."

This treasure comes from the Soul Master and is also an innate supreme treasure, but it is also incomplete, with a total of six holes on the triangular banner.

"Qiang Liang, this Purple Lightning Hammer is destined for you!"

"Shebishi, this Four Symbols Pagoda is destined for you!"

"Zhen Yuanzi, this Myriad Beasts Diagram is destined for you!"

Donghuang Taiyi bestowed five supreme treasures in one go, which were eagerly watched by Styx Ancestor, Jieyin, Zhunti and others.

What a treasure!

Even with its damage, it still represents a path to enlightenment! (End of Chapter)
