The Two Pure Ones and Jieyin Become Saints

"Since it is the Imperial Decree the Dao Ancestor, and you wish to preach and establish a religion in our Demon Clan Heavenly Court, this is excellent. Our Demon Clan welcomes both of you to join us."

Di Jun readily agreed.

The Three Pure Ones are the Pangu's Orthodox Lineage, possessing profound fortune. Letting them join the demon race is a worthwhile deal.

Laozi bowed slightly. "Thank you for your kindness, Fellow Di Jun Dijun."

Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly from the side, but said nothing more.

In her view, preaching to these creatures with fur and horns, born from moisture and eggs, was an utter disgrace.

Since her older brother had made the decision, she couldn't very well object.

Di Jun laughed heartily, "Since Fellow Taiqing is acting on the orders of the Dao Ancestor, how could I possibly disagree?"

Laozi and Yuanshi made up their minds, and the matter was accomplished.

Di Jun then issued an edict to designate an area outside the Thirty-Three Heavens of the Heavenly Court for Laozi to use for establishing his teachings and preaching.

She stepped in, her delicate hand rising lightly, Taiji Diagram flew out from her sleeve, growing larger in the wind and instantly covering hundreds of millions of miles.

The black and white energies circulated, forming a barrier that isolated this place from the outside world.

Immediately afterwards, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, appeared overhead, cascading down streams of Mysterious Yellow Merit Qi, impervious to all laws and warding off all evil.

With everything prepared, Laozi sat cross-legged on a futon, his eyes slightly closed, his breath merging with the entire universe.

The news of Laozi Preaching the Dao quickly reached the entire Demon Clan Heavenly Court.

"Have you heard? The Taiqing Laozi, Laozi, the head of the Three Pure Ones, is going to give a sermon in the Demon Court!"

"The Three Pure Ones? Are they the three powerful beings transformed from the Pangu's Primordial Spirit? Haven't they always looked down on our demon race?"

"Who cares! This is a lecture given by a disciple personally taught by the Dao Ancestor. It contains great opportunities. Just hearing a sentence or two might be enough to help us break through our bottlenecks!"

In just a few days, countless demons gathered to listen to the teachings.

The time had come. Laozi slowly opened his eyes and began to preach. "The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be named is not the eternal name..."

"These two originate from the same source but have different names; they are both called profound, the profound within the profound, the gateway to all wonders."

As Laozi preached, he exuded a profound Dao Charm.

Laozi's teachings on the evolution of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements explain the fundamental principles of spiritual cultivation for living beings, as well as the methods for eliminating the Three Corpses (a concept in Traditional Chinese Medicine). He presents profound insights in a simple and accessible way, directly addressing the core issues.

At first, many demon disciples were confused, but as Laozi's explanation went deeper, it was as if a new world had been opened for them.

During his sermon, Laozi sensed that fortune and merit were converging upon him from all directions.

Establishing a religion is a great act of merit, in accordance with the workings of Heaven, to educate and enlighten all living beings in the Primordial World.

Although she did not intend to preach to the demon race, she truly enlightened the wisdom of all living beings.

Furthermore, they clarified their spiritual paths, an act of immense merit.

At the same time, Laozi's aura began to rise steadily.

The shackles that had bound him to the peak of Quasi-Saint for so long began to crack under the erosion of merit.

Yuanshi was protecting her from the side; she could sense that her eldest sister's aura was undergoing a tremendous transformation.

Boom!

Laozi instantly broke through the bottleneck and reached the realm of a sage.

In an instant, the Thirty-Three Heavens shook violently, purple aura traveled thirty thousand miles eastward, celestial music filled the air, and golden flowers rained down.

Countless living beings trembled under this oppressive force, involuntarily kneeling down in the direction of the Demon Clan Heavenly Court.

Laozi slowly stood up, his indifferent gaze sweeping over all living beings, and slowly spoke, "I am Taiqing Laozi. Today, I follow the will of Heaven, establish a sect in the Demon Court, and use the Taiji Diagram to suppress the destiny. Today, my merits are complete, and I attain sainthood!"

Meanwhile, Buzhou Mountain.

Nuwa put down her teacup, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and chuckled softly, covering her mouth, "Brother Chu, I never imagined Laozi would actually establish a sect among the demon race."

Chu Feng chuckled, "Isn't it because you established the Human Religion that Laozi had no choice but to establish a cult among the demon race?"

The two smiled without saying a word, while Chu Feng felt heavy-hearted and sighed deeply.

The idea of Laozi establishing a religion among the demon race has been written in many Primordial World novels.

However, he didn't want Laozi to establish a religion among the demon race; instead, he wanted her to follow the path of Law Proving the Dao.

Therefore, when he discussed the Dao with Tongtian, he repeatedly instructed Tongtian to persuade Laozi Yuanshi.

It now appears that Tongtian did not succeed in persuading Laozi and Yuanshi.

Chu Feng was not surprised; this matter was not difficult for him.

With his current Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal, if Laozi or Yuanshi, he could help them attain the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

At the same time, Yuanshi witnessed Laozi's entire process of becoming a sage, and was deeply shocked.

Then he sensed that his own opportunity to become a saint had arrived.

"My elder brother established a religion that teaches without discrimination, and although he has gained merit, it is also mixed."

Thinking of this, Yuanshi immediately established his doctrine. "Heaven is above, and I am Yuanshi. I now establish a religion called Chan Sect. My doctrine shall follow the will of Heaven and respond to the needs of the people, expounding the ultimate principles of Heaven."

Those who are not deeply rooted in the Dao and possess exceptional talent are not worthy of entering my tutelage. Only in this way can one be considered a true successor to the Daoist tradition!

"Allow!"

As the voice of Heaven faded, countless merits surged into Yuanshi's body.

She instantly broke through the shackles and achieved the realm of a saint.

After the establishment of the Chan Sect, Yuanshi began to recruit disciples widely, selecting those with outstanding aptitude and excellent innate qualities to join his sect.

Soon, the Chan Sect became a powerful force in the Primordial World.

At the same time, the expressions of the two figures on Mount Sumeru instantly became extremely solemn.

This place is completely different from the ethereal atmosphere of the East; the spiritual energy is thin and the land is barren.

All of this was because the great battle between Luohu and Hongjun detonated the ley Earth Veins in the west.

"Senior Sister, Laozi and Yuanshi have already become saints, and the fortunes of the Three Pure Ones are connected. At that time, the East will prosper greatly, and our West will never have a chance to rise again!"

Jieyin deeply and said bitterly, "Junior Sister, how could I not know? It's just that our West is barren and lacks the foundation to establish a religion. How can we obtain the Heavenly Dao Merit and attain that supreme Saint Position?"

A glint flashed in Zhunti gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Senior Sister, since we have no merit base, then let's borrow it from the Heavenly Dao!"

We have made a great vow, and will exchange this vow for merit! We swear that we will deliver all suffering beings in the Western Paradise and even the Three Realms. With such a great vow, how could Heaven not respond?

The two exchanged a glance, their minds in perfect harmony, and then stood up, ready to establish their teachings.

Then, the two stood side by side, gazing up at the sky.

"I am the Jieyin."

"I am Zhunti."

"Now we establish the Western Religion to enlighten all living beings in the Primordial World; may Heaven bear witness!"

As the two began to establish their religion, the Eye of the Heavenly Dao reappeared.

"Allow!"

However, the merit of establishing a religion is only enough for one person to become a saint, Jieyin and Zhunti are two people, which is not enough to support both of them to become saints.

"Senior sister, there's no other way. Let's stick to what we just discussed, make a grand vow, and borrow some merit from the Heavenly Dao."

Zhunti had no choice but to take the gamble in order to become a saint.

"Good!"

Jieyin solemnly and spoke first, "If I attain unsurpassed Bodhi and become a fully enlightened being, the Buddha-land I reside in will be adorned with immeasurable and inconceivable merits..."

As she uttered her first grand vow, the winds and clouds above the nine heavens swirled, and purple lightning and golden thunder danced wildly like dragons and snakes.

Zhunti followed suit, throwing his second grand vow toward the Heavenly Dao.

One, ten, thirty, forty-eight grand aspirations—each word a gem, each sentence embodying the two men's unwavering determination to revitalize the West.

As the last word fell from the horizon, the Heavenly Dao bestowed boundless merit, and two immense and unparalleled sage-like pressures surged into the sky from Mount Sumeru.

From then on, Western Religion were established.

At the same time, the system's voice rang in Chu Feng's mind...
