Primordial World: Chan Sect's Eldest Disciple, Proving the Dao of Hunyuan Daluo

This is the route to break out of the Innate Yin Sha Great Formation.

Gu Changsheng stepped forward with a calm expression.

With an air of transcendence, he quickly emerged from the Innate Yin Sha Great Formation.

Gu Changsheng let out a long breath, and the tense feeling in his heart eased.

Success?

Unable to hide his joy, Gu Changsheng used a minor spell and hurried away.

Gu Changsheng traveled a hundred li in haste before stopping.

The Primordial world was vast; he found a secluded spot and took a drink from a Spiritual Spring.

How many days would it take to reach Kunlun?

But the Primordial world was vast, with dangers lurking everywhere.

If he didn't go to Kunlun to take a master, then, as a mere human, he might be killed by someone at any moment.

Worse still, he could end up as food for the Demon Race.

That was something he didn't want.

"Now, the Three Pure Ones have established their teachings and become Saints. All Primordial beings will go to take them as masters."

"Among the Three Pure Ones, Saint Yuanshi is the most protective of his disciples. If I succeed in becoming his disciple, it will be like having a talisman for protection."

Gu Changsheng thought to himself, planning to take Yuanshi as his master.

"This journey to Kunlun is likely quite dangerous. Fortunately, I have the Primordial System; at critical moments, it can save my life."

Gu Changsheng sat cross-legged, absorbing Innate Spiritual Qi.

Looking up, beneath the Sky Dome, many Primordial beings were either flying on artifacts or riding clouds and mist.

These were all part of the army of disciples heading to Kunlun.

After a moment's thought, Gu Changsheng had the Primordial System plan the shortest route to Kunlun Mountain for him.

[Ding, detected that the host needs a travel route map. Currently deducing for the host.]

[Ding, deducing... 30... 60...]

[Ding, route planning successful for the host!]

Before Gu Changsheng's eyes, a shortcut path to Kunlun suddenly appeared.

Chapter 2: The Three Pure Ones Take Disciples! Taking Yuanshi as Master!

With the shortcut, Gu Changsheng used Human Magic and headed toward Kunlun Mountain.

Kunlun was vast, shrouded in immortal mist.

The dome of Kunlun was covered by Auspicious Clouds and Purple Qi, and a vast, oppressive pressure slowly descended.

This place was still tens of thousands of li from Kunlun, but that pressure made Gu Changsheng's heart pound and tremble.

"Mighty Saintly Might, truly so."

Gu Changsheng didn't think much more and used his magic to press on.

Along the way, he could see many Primordial beings speeding past.

As he passed by a valley, he suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold, as if it were seeping into his marrow.

Gu Changsheng focused his gaze. At the bottom of the valley, coiled in a Cold Pool, was a Red-scaled Giant Python.

Its body was so massive it seemed to cover the valley.

"A human dares to intrude here."

The Red-scaled Giant Python's voice was as cold as ice, its Demonic Qi surging.

Its eyes seemed to see through Gu Changsheng's heart, sending a chill through his entire body.

Gu Changsheng's heart trembled; he suddenly felt as insignificant as a grain of sand.

However, though the Red-scaled Giant Python showed a greedy look, it didn't open its mouth to devour Gu Changsheng.

"Beneath the Saint's feet, I'll spare your life!"

The Red-scaled Giant Python's voice shook the valley.

Gu Changsheng recognized this as a snake demon.

He remembered how his clansmen had died tragically, reduced to ashes by a great demon.

A surge of impulse welled up inside him.

But Gu Changsheng quickly suppressed it.

"It seems this Red-scaled Giant Python has its eyes on me. This time, going to Kunlun, I must take a Saint as my master."

Beside the Red-scaled Giant Python, thousands of skulls emitted a faint, eerie green light.

Gu Changsheng knew that if he didn't take a Saint as his master...

If he returned from Kunlun empty-handed, he would surely fall prey to this Red-scaled Giant Python.

He clenched his fists, his gaze fixed firmly on the towering Kunlun Holy Land.

To become a disciple of a saint—he was determined to achieve it!

Gu Changsheng hurried away.

The Red-scaled Giant Python let out a rasping, sinister laugh.

"That brat's tender-skinned and looks quite tasty. No rush—I'll savor him when he comes back."

Donghuang Taiyi and Demon Emperor Jun had founded the Demon Court.

This Red-scaled Giant Python was a great demon.

By nature, it delighted in devouring humans, so it had waited here.

Unexpectedly, it had encountered Gu Changsheng, and thus a grudge was born.

At the foot of Kunlun Mountain, Primordial beings gathered.

Creatures of all races from the Primordial looked up, their eyes gleaming with longing.

Yet some cast disdainful glances at Gu Changsheng, a human.

"Even a human dares come to the saint's domain? How utterly reckless."

That Primordial being, towering and robust, sneered at Gu Changsheng's slight frame.

Gu Changsheng paid it no mind.

His sole purpose here was to seek a master.

Everything else was irrelevant.

And just as Gu Changsheng, along with the other beings, waited with bated anticipation—

Boom!

Suddenly, a thunderous roar came from the peak of Kunlun, from Above the Nine Heavens.

Purple lightning streaked across the sky, as if a heavenly gate had appeared atop Kunlun Mountain.

A holy radiance enveloped lands spanning billions of miles.

"The Heavenly Gate opens—the saints emerge!"

A Primordial being exclaimed in astonishment.

Gu Changsheng held his breath, staring intently.

From within the Heavenly Gate, a voice as ancient as time itself resounded, shaking the heavens.

In an instant, lands spanning billions of miles were swept by a vast sonic wave.

The wave surged, driving out all evil beings.

The Dao Heart of every creature trembled violently in that moment.

Gu Changsheng felt as if his Dao Heart had been laid bare, leaving him unsettled.

Beneath the celestial light, Immortal Music rang out from Kunlun's peak.

Immortal Cranes danced gracefully, light and ethereal.

As if from the end of the River of Time, a voice spoke.

"I, Primordial Heavenly Venerate, now accept disciples of the Chan Sect at Kunlun. Those with great perseverance, great wisdom, and great courage may tread the one hundred twenty-nine thousand six hundred steps and enter my mountain gate!"

The Primordial beings were all startled.

One hundred twenty-nine thousand six hundred steps—that was the count of one Yuan!

Gu Changsheng's heart trembled, and he resolved to try.

But from Above the Nine Heavens at Kunlun, another voice rang out.

Grand Pure One Laozi and Sect Leader Tongtian had also begun accepting disciples.

The beings erupted in excitement!

"All Three Pure Saints are taking disciples—this is a hard choice."

"But it also gives us a chance to decide."

"If I fail Saint Yuanshi's trial, I can still seek to become Sect Leader Tongtian's disciple."
