Primordial Era: Starting Downloaded Saint Cultivation

With excitement, Suiren Shi looked at Jiang Chen with clouded eyes, filled with longing.

He was somewhat expectant, anticipating what astonishing words this senior, who had just returned to the Human Race, would utter next!

As soon as Suiren Shi finished speaking, countless gazes instantly turned towards them.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen felt a headache coming on. He had truly brought a rock upon his own feet.

The reason he had spoken those words earlier was merely to prevent the Human Race from falling into despair, using them to inspire them.

But now, they were asking him for methods of improvement. Jiang Chen couldn't think of anything on the spot and immediately wanted to shake his head, saying he didn't know.

But just as he was about to speak, their gazes met his!

Hope, yearning, anticipation, surprise.

Various emotions were contained within their eyes!

What kind of gaze was this?

Jiang Chen didn't know, but he stopped his head-shaking motion, swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue, and frantically pondered in his mind.

"Self-improvement!"

"Perseverance!"

"Our Human Race must strive for self-improvement and perseverance!!!!!"

After a long period of thought, Jiang Chen calmly uttered his answer.

Although the words were simple, they fell upon the ears of the many humans like thunderous roars, exploding in their minds!

"That's right, our Human Race must strive for self-improvement and perseverance. If we don't have cultivation methods, we'll create them ourselves!"

"We get sick? We'll cure ourselves!"

"We die of old age in a hundred years? We'll find and create methods for longevity ourselves!!"

"Monster beasts attack? We won't rely on others; we can resist them ourselves, and even if we die, we'll let them know we're not to be trifled with!!!"

Among them, Suiren Shi was the most grateful. He murmured in surprise on the spot, and as he spoke, his clouded eyes not only brightened but, by the end, he even shouted out loud!

It was as if he was venting, or perhaps proclaiming!

"Self-improvement and perseverance!"

"Our Human Race must strive for self-improvement and perseverance!"

In an instant, the atmosphere seemed to infect others, and everyone followed suit, shouting!

A single person's voice may be small, but when the entire Human Race united, their voices resounded through the heavens, causing the surrounding trees to tremble!

Hiss!

"Is this the Master's Human Race?"

Seeing the frenzied state of those people, Ao Yu gasped. The collective spirit and energy of everyone present made her, a late-stage Grand Master Golden Immortal, feel a sense of dread, as if facing them meant certain death!

However, what shocked her even more was yet to come!

Just as the Human Race shouted in unison, boundless Yellow Merit appeared in the sky, vast and mighty, descending directly!

"So much Merit!!!"

"So much Merit!!!"

Ao Yu exclaimed in shock, her voice even cracking.

There was no other way; the amount of Merit before her was simply too much!

Merit could arguably be called the number one treasure in the Primordial Era!

As everyone knows, all medicine has some toxicity. When breaking through with heavenly treasures, there might be some hidden troubles. However, Merit not only doesn't affect one's foundation but can directly increase cultivation!

This can be seen from the way the Six Saints achieved their sainthood through Merit.

In addition, Merit can be used to refine the restrictions within Spiritual Treasures!

More importantly, having Merit to protect oneself also garners the blessings of heaven and earth, essentially acting as a death-exemption token. If others want to attack or kill you, they need to consider if they can withstand the backlash of Merit!

Even the supreme Saints would suffer immense losses!

In conclusion, Merit has endless benefits and is something countless beings in the Primordial Era desperately seek!

However, Merit is incredibly rare. Some people cannot obtain even a trace of it in their entire lives, yet now Ao Yu saw what?

Merit filling the sky!

A full hundred acres worth!

Merit that others coveted so much, and now a hundred acres appeared here?

This wasn't the end. After the Merit appeared, it split into countless portions, scattering into the bodies of all the humans!

But one-tenth of it, the largest portion of Merit, fell into Jiang Chen's body!

Seeing this, Ao Yu couldn't help but have a fleeting thought: could the Human Race truly be the protagonists of later generations?

If that were the case, she had to quickly inform her father!

Putting Ao Yu's shock aside, Jiang Chen himself was incredibly surprised when the Merit appeared.

He never expected that merely guiding Suiren Shi would generate such immense Merit!

After the surprise came elation.

If Ao Yu knew the miraculous uses of Merit, then Jiang Chen, who had thoroughly studied the Primordial Era, naturally knew even better!

But before he could properly reflect, the boundless Merit had already entered his body!

"If I refine this Merit, Grand Unity Golden Immortal is within reach!"

Sensing the surging Merit within him, Jiang Chen had an intuitive feeling.

It seemed that as long as he refined this Merit, he might very well break through to Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen's eyes burned with fervor. Although Grand Unity Golden Immortal was just the beginning, how long had it been since he'd broken through the peak of Grand Master Golden Immortal? And now he could also break through to Grand Unity Golden Immortal?

This speed was simply astonishing!

Indeed, venturing out for trials was the right choice!

At this moment, Jiang Chen felt his previous decision was wise. If he hadn't traveled the Primordial Era, where would he have gained such rewards?

More importantly, this was just the beginning!

Coincidentally!

As if to confirm Jiang Chen's thoughts, after the boundless Merit dispersed, a black shadow suddenly flew from the distant sky!

As the distance shortened, the shadow gradually enlarged, finally landing before Jiang Chen. He discovered the shadow's true form was a golden seal!

Nine divine dragons coiled around the seal, its base facing the four cardinal directions, exuding boundless might. Below the seal were Great Dao inscriptions—the characters "Kongtong"!

"Could this be the Kongtong Seal?!"

Seeing this Spiritual Treasure before him, a strikingly similar Spiritual Treasure appeared in Jiang Chen's mind, and he couldn't help but stir.

Although his words held doubt, they were extremely certain!

The Kongtong Seal, a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the foremost treasure of the Human Race. Legend had it that whoever wielded this seal could depose or establish Human Emperors, and it could also deal with all demons and monsters. Ghosts would have their souls scattered upon contact, and demons would be annihilated.

"I never imagined that because I guided the Human Race, not only would boundless Merit descend, but the Human Race's ultimate treasure also judged me as the key to leading the Human Race to prosperity, and thus directly recognized me as its master?"

As the information about the Kongtong Seal flashed through his mind, Jiang Chen quickly understood why it had appeared before him.

Although this would be Laozi's Spiritual Treasure in the future, the Three Pure Ones had just separated, and Laozi hadn't obtained it yet. It was a perfect opportunity for him to pick it up!

Of course, it couldn't be called "picking it up," as Spiritual Treasures had spirits and chose their own masters. What "picking it up" was there to speak of?

With this thought, Jiang Chen felt no psychological burden.

Afterward, he couldn't help but think of the Kongtong Seal's most crucial function.

The Kongtong Seal possessed the power to suppress destiny. The value of treasures that could suppress destiny was self-evident. Even his Master didn't have one now. If the Human Race were to rise in the future, then he, the owner of the Kongtong Seal, would undoubtedly reap the greatest destiny and benefits!

In addition, it had the power to depose or establish Human Emperors, meaning that all future Human Emperors would be decided by him!

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen's eyes lit up. This was the Kongtong Seal's most critical function! During the era of the Three Human Emperors, this treasure would definitely display miraculous effects!

"Receive!"

In an instant, the various functions of the Kongtong Seal surfaced. Jiang Chen flicked his wrist, which held the Sea-Calming Divine Pearls, and then put the seal away.

Thus, the benefits of guiding the Human Race were finally tallied.

"Greetings, Sage Emperor!"

But just as Jiang Chen collected the Kongtong Seal, Suiren Shi took the lead, bowing his head and shouting to Jiang Chen!

"Greetings, Sage Emperor!"

"Greetings, Sage Emperor!!"
