Human Emperor Jiutou Shi had already undergone Dao Transformation, so naturally, the Human Emperor Seal should no longer exist in the primordial world.
Cihang understood very clearly that Jiu Tou Shi had passed down his legacy to help him, and also because he wanted him to inherit the Human Emperor's mission.
The Three Sovereigns of ancient times had been born bearing Pangu's will. They had not the slightest selfish desire or distracting thought; their hearts were devoted solely to the primordial world.
But Cihang himself knew very well that he currently lacked the strength to bear the Human Emperor's position.
Unlike the Human Emperors of the human race in later generations, Jiu Tou Shi's Human Emperor position corresponded to that of a Hun Yuan Saint.
The word "human" did not represent the human race, but all sentient beings in the primordial world.
The Karma and status of that alone already outweighed a supreme treasure.
Unfortunately, though the opportunity was excellent, the Heavenly Dao would not permit the Human Emperor to reappear.
As for the Human Emperors of later generations, they possessed no status at all. They had even lost their freedom and become puppet-like existences.
"Ultimately, I have failed to live up to the Human Emperor's expectations!"
Filled with apology, Cihang bowed toward the direction in which Jiu Tou Shi had vanished.
Once he possessed sufficient strength in the future, he would fulfill Jiu Tou Shi's final wish—but not now.
Because of Jiu Tou Shi's gift, the restrictions on the All Beings Seal had fully opened. He only needed to imprint it with his primordial spirit to completely claim it as his own.
The Earth Spirit Pearl was the same.
This spared him the arduous task of refining them for tens of millions of years.
After storing the All Beings Seal within his sea of consciousness, Cihang waved his hand and gathered innate earth spirits, raising another altar on the spot.
Just as Cihang finished constructing the altar, Huang Yan and a group of clansmen hurried over, their faces filled with alarm.
When Huang Yan saw Cihang, the anxiety on his face turned into unease.
"Greetings, Celestial God.
Earlier, we heard rumbling from this place. Huang Yan was worried and came to take a look; I did not mean to disturb you, Celestial God!"
Huang Yan hurriedly knelt and begged forgiveness.
"It is nothing. You did not disturb me. Rise!"
Cihang waved his hand, helping Huang Yan and the clansmen to their feet.
"Thank you, Celestial God!"
Huang Yan bowed to Cihang again in gratitude.
"Now that the divine path of the primordial world has declined and the immortal path flourishes, do not call me Celestial God anymore.
I have already refined this realm. You may call me Realm Master!"
Cihang first corrected how they addressed him.
The primordial divine path had been erased by the Heavenly Dao. No trace of the divine path remained in the primordial world.
"Yes, Realm Master."
Huang Yan did not dare raise the slightest objection and immediately changed his form of address.
"Mm. Although I have refined this realm, the primordial world is currently not suitable for your survival.
When the time is right, I will bring you back to the primordial world."
Recalling what Huang Yan had said before, Cihang still gave them an explanation.
The human race had yet to appear, so these innate humans naturally could not enter the primordial world yet.
"We shall obey the Realm Master's command!"
Huang Yan and the other clansmen had lived within earth spirits for generations, so they did not find anything amiss.
Returning to the main world was merely an ancestral teaching.
"I have left some cultivation methods within this altar. You may later comprehend and cultivate them there.
The primordial world is a world of cultivation. Without strength, survival is difficult.
You may use this time to cultivate and improve your strength!"
Cihang pointed at the altar as he spoke.
"We thank the Realm Master for imparting the teachings!"
Huang Yan and the clansmen excitedly knelt and bowed.
Although they did not understand cultivation, they knew cultivators were powerful and greatly admired them.
Faced with Cihang, who had passed cultivation methods on to them, everyone became even more respectful.
"Cultivate well. When the time is right, I will take you away!"
After arranging matters for the Earth Spirit Tribe, Cihang turned and returned to the Glazed Grotto-Heaven.
The Earth Spirit Tribe's clansmen might not have possessed exceptional aptitude, but they were all innate beings and still held considerable potential.
Once the human race appeared, the Five Elements Spirit Tribes would no longer stand out so much and could leave the Spirit Pearl Grotto-Heaven.
In the future, the Glazed Grotto-Heaven would no longer lack cultivators to manage it.
Only after branding the remaining restrictions of the Earth Spirit Pearl with his primordial spirit did Cihang return to his primordial-world dojo.
The Earth Spirit Pearl had been completely refined, and he needed to sense the locations of the other spirit pearls once more.
The moment Cihang stepped out of the Glazed Grotto-Heaven, the All Beings Seal in his sea of consciousness emitted streams of light.
Within his sea of consciousness, scenes of all living beings manifested one after another.
At the same time, an unknown force descended and blessed Cihang's body.
The All Beings Seal also became more profound, gaining a trace of mysterious aura.
In an instant, Cihang felt the spiritual energy around him become more intimate, while the laws of heaven and earth grew increasingly clear.
"Fortune. This is fortune descending upon me."
A message came from the All Beings Seal, leaving Cihang unsure whether he should rejoice or worry.
The original All Beings Seal had merely been a top-grade spirit treasure.
After Jiu Tou Shi embarked upon the path of the Human Emperor, he used the All Beings Seal to contain the fortune of all living beings, refining it into a fortune spirit treasure.
Borrowing the fortune of all beings, the All Beings Seal had leapt in a single stroke to become a supreme treasure.
Now that Cihang had inherited Jiu Tou Shi's legacy, he had naturally inherited his fortune as well.
Though countless ages had passed, Jiu Tou Shi still had some fortune remaining.
After inheriting this fortune, Cihang's fortune was not much inferior to that of Sanqing and Nuwa.
"Some things truly cannot be avoided. Since I cannot refuse it, I can only accept it."
Cihang quickly accepted everything with calmness.
Everything happening now benefited him.
As for the hidden dangers, those were matters he would need to face after becoming a quasi-saint.
No longer dwelling on it, Cihang brought forth the Earth Spirit Pearl, raised it with his primordial spirit, and began sensing the other spirit pearls again.
Because he had completely refined it, this sensing process went far more smoothly.
The originally vague sensations also became clear.
Not only had his perception of the spirit pearl in the west become clearer.
Cihang also sensed the auras of two other spirit pearls.
Other than the Water Spirit Pearl, the other three spirit pearls have yet to recognize a master!
This discovery delighted Cihang. Unclaimed spirit treasures were also easier to obtain.
At the same time, two cultivators suddenly appeared outside the valley.
They clearly had not made any visible movement, yet they radiated an inexplicable pressure.
"Nuwa, are you certain it is here?"
Fuxi frowned as he looked at the somewhat desolate valley.
This place did not look like it held any opportunity involving a spirit treasure.
"That's right. It is here!"
Nuwa replied with complete certainty.
"Mm! This place truly is somewhat unusual!"
Fuxi's expression suddenly shifted. With a wave of his hand, he sent out a stream of spiritual power, revealing an innate grand formation within the valley.
"An innate grand formation containing the intent of creation. It truly has affinity with me!"
Nuwa suddenly broke into a smile.
"Then leave the rest to me!"
After seeing Nuwa confirm it again, Fuxi's mana surged forth, transforming into streams of divine radiance that shot toward the grand formation.
Looking closely, one could see extremely complex Divine Marks emerging within that mana.
Fuxi did not forcibly attack the grand formation. Instead, he was analyzing it, using formations to break formations.
Yet as he analyzed the grand formation, Fuxi's brows gradually furrowed deeper, until he finally withdrew his mana.
"Brother, is this grand formation too profound?"
Though Nuwa's strength was comparable to Fuxi's, she was inferior to him in formations.
"That is not the case. This grand formation does not seem naturally formed; rather, it resembles one arranged by a cultivator!"
Fuxi explained with a frown.
"Brother, you mean this is a cultivator's dojo? But how could that be?"
Nuwa was greatly surprised, but she still trusted Fuxi's judgment.
But who would establish a dojo here, and be capable of drawing her perception?
"Who is attacking the grand formation!"
Yet when they saw the cultivator within the formation, they were utterly shocked.
How could it be them?
