Primordial Era: Downloading Saint Cultivation at the Start

However, one could also say that the cultivators of the Western Religion had extremely bad luck.

After all, following the conflict between Dao and Demon, when the Demon Ancestor Luohu detonated the ancestral vein of the West, the Western Religion not only became scarce in Spiritual Treasures but also had very few individuals with decent talent. It could be said to be the poorest region in the Primordial Era.

Even with two Saints lecturing together, the cultivators below were utterly confused. Some even dozed off and openly snored!

From this, it was not difficult to see how poor the aptitudes of the Western Religion's cultivators truly were.

"Did you all understand?"

Suddenly, Zhunti and Jieyin stopped lecturing and looked at their disciples below with hopeful eyes. As if fearing they lacked motivation, they added, "If anyone understands, they can directly become an outer disciple of our Western Religion!"

That's right, in the vast East of the Primordial Era, where countless people struggled to join, becoming an outer disciple of a Saint was possible in the Western Religion simply by understanding the teachings!

It was as if there were no threshold at all.

This was a desperate measure by Zhunti and Jieyin. There was no other way, given the conditions in the West. Most of them had terrible talent, and it was already considered great luck to recruit good disciples from among those with terrible talent.

This was the current predicament of the Western Religion.

Compared to the Three Pure Ones at this moment, it was like heaven and earth.

However, even with Zhunti and Jieyin drastically lowering the bar, not a single person responded. They all just shook their heads.

Seeing this, Zhunti's forehead creased with worry, and Jieyin, with a pained expression, became even more distressed. They then tacitly looked towards the East of the Primordial Era, their eyes filled with endless envy!

The East was different from the West. Countless powerful beings were born there, and those with outstanding talent were everywhere. If not for the Three Pure Ones guarding it, they would have long since been unable to resist snatching them away!

However, just as they were employing the "look at the plum to quench thirst" technique, something different happened today. A mass of immeasurable Merit appeared before their eyes!

"Such immense Merit, what happened in the East?"

The expressions of the two changed. Then, Zhunti flicked his sleeve, and an image appeared in the void!

The person in the image was none other than Jiang Chen, who was previously explaining the spirit of self-reliance and perseverance of the Human Race, and had obtained immeasurable Merit!

"Grand Master Golden Immortal completion can trigger such a massive amount of Merit. What did this person do?"

As soon as the image appeared, a disciple below exclaimed in shock.

As the words fell, Zhunti and Jieyin's eyebrows twitched. They had just been worrying about their disciples' aptitudes, but now seeing someone in the East trigger such immense Merit, their envy grew by another third!

"Senior Brother, this person is just lucky. Triggering such a massive amount of Merit probably exhausted a lot of his luck. There will be no hope for further Merit to descend next time. Moreover, our Western Religion will be able to achieve this in the future!"

Zhunti said indifferently, as if comforting his Senior Brother, or perhaps comforting himself. As Saints, their composure was not outwardly displayed. Although they were envious inwardly, their expressions remained unchanged.

"Master, will we really be able to do this in the future?"

Before Jieyin could reply, a disciple below eagerly asked.

This almost choked Zhunti and Jieyin to death. Damn it, you weren't this enthusiastic when listening to the teachings, but now you're even jumping the queue to answer?

And they couldn't even pick up on the comforting words. It seemed their disciples were not only terribly untalented but also a bit slow-witted!

Fortunately, their awkwardness was quickly resolved.

Because.

In the image, Jiang Chen had just obtained another mass of Merit through drilling wood to make fire!

Zhunti: "..."

Seeing this, not only did the disciples of the Western Religion exclaim in unison, but even Zhunti and Jieyin were stunned!

No one expected the slap in the face to come so quickly!

Zhunti: "Cough, cough, next time, next time he won't get any Merit!"

But at this moment, the image shifted again, showing Jiang Chen frantically accumulating Merit!

Disciples of the Western Religion: "Master, is this what you meant by exhausted luck?"

Zhunti: "...That's right, this time for sure!"

Disciples of the Western Religion: "Master, he's triggering Merit again!"

Zhunti: "I, I..."

Disciples of the Western Religion: "This is bad, Master, Merit is falling again!"

Zhunti: "...Hiss, so that's how it is. He actually possesses the root of wisdom for my Western Religion!"

Disciples of the Western Religion: "Here it comes, here it comes!"

Zhunti: "...Hmm, I was wrong again. This child has a destined connection with my West!!"

Disciples of the Western Religion: "It's here, it's here, Merit is floating over on auspicious clouds!"

Zhunti: MMP "...Alright, I'm not looking anymore!!!"

Whoosh!

With a petulant remark, Zhunti waved his large sleeve and directly retracted the image. His figure also disappeared from before his disciples, reappearing out of thin air within the palace of the Western Religion.

Out of sight, out of mind. Zhunti finally found some peace.

But even so, the wrinkles on his forehead had lessened, and a strange light appeared in his eyes!

As Zhunti's good buddy, Jieyin understood his mood at this moment.

Honestly, when he saw the immense Merit Jiang Chen was descending, Zhunti had been tempted too. The look of suffering vanished from his face, as if he'd found a second spring in life. However, when he tried to calculate, he found Jiang Chen's entire being obscured by heavenly secrets. Even after paying a great price, he could only discern that Jiang Chen was a disciple of Tongtian, and nothing more!

Even so, Jieyin's face froze, returning to its state of endless sorrow.

"Junior Brother, that person is Tongtian's disciple."

After thinking for a long time, Jieyin still told his junior brother the result.

As expected.

Upon hearing this answer, Zhunti's face also froze, and an endless sense of despair surged from his heart. "Senior Brother, I understand."

Seeing his junior brother like this, Jieyin felt no different. He merely sighed, patted Zhunti's shoulder, and then left.

After finally encountering such a genius, only to discover that person was Tongtian's disciple—it felt like the day before the wedding, only to be told your fiancée was someone else's wife. Only those who experienced it would know the taste!

However, after Jieyin left, Zhunti's expression became unpredictable. At times he was conflicted, at times he frowned, and his eyes held a thoughtful gaze.

Within the Thirty-Third Heaven, in the Heavenly Court.

Countless figures gathered here, standing on either side. If anyone were present, they would surely recognize these individuals. Not a single person present was weak; they were at least Grand Unity Golden Immortals, all renowned powerhouses of the Demon Race!

Yet, despite being great powers, they all now submitted below, and the Heavenly Court fell silent.

The reason for all this was the two figures above them, filled with boundless majesty. Their auras were vast, and boundless light bloomed behind them, like two scorching suns hanging in the sky, daring no one to contend with them!

These were none other than the Demon Race's Heavenly Court's Demon Emperor Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi!

"Nuwa still refuses to help my Demon Race?"

After a long while, Di Jun's voice echoed through the Heavenly Court.

Before the Heavenly Court was established, Nuwa was a member of the Demon Race. But now, after Nuwa became a Saint, she was unwilling to assist the Demon Race. With the current opposition between the Witches and Demons, it was a time when they needed all the help they could get. How could Di Jun let go of such a great asset as Nuwa? He had naturally tried to persuade her for a long time.

But this time, he was still disappointed.

"Reporting to the Heavenly Emperor, my sister, even I, her brother, cannot find her now. Please forgive my transgression, Heavenly Emperor!"

With no one else speaking, Fuxi stepped forward and reported truthfully.

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the Heavenly Court instantly became still. Although Di Jun didn't speak, one could imagine how terrible his expression was.

However, as they were Saints, there was nothing he could do.

"Have there been any abnormalities recently?"

With a cold snort, Di Jun turned his gaze to the others, inquiring about the recent situation in the Heavenly Court.

"Reporting to the Heavenly Emperor, some time ago, the aura of two Tiger Generals, both at the peak of Grand Master Golden Immortal, disappeared within the Human Race. Your subordinate suspects they may have met their demise."

Someone said.

Tiger Generals met their demise?

As his words fell, the other members of the Demon Race were instantly puzzled. In their memories, the Human Race was an incredibly weak race, at most their food source. Yet, two peak Grand Master Golden Immortal Tiger Demons disappearing within the Human Race made them ponder.

"The Human Race? Isn't that the race Nuwa created?"

It wasn't just them; Di Jun also seemed to recall something, then laughed in extreme anger. "Good, good, good! Now everyone has no regard for me, the Emperor, and the Heavenly Court! First, Nuwa refused to aid the Heavenly Court, then Dong Wang Gong established the Ancient Heavenly Court on Penglai Island, and now the Human Race created by Nuwa dares to provoke my wrath!"

"Human Race, must be killed!!!"

As he spoke, a furious roar filled with boundless killing intent erupted from Di Jun. His body suddenly exploded with immense power, his peak Quasi-Saint aura sweeping across the cosmos. All the great powers within the Heavenly Court instantly trembled in fear!

The might of the Heavenly Emperor was unparalleled!

"This subject is willing to serve the Heavenly Emperor and go forth to exterminate the Human Race!"

Seeing Di Jun's fury, Ji Meng, one of the Ten Great Demon Sages, stepped forward and volunteered.

The other Demon Sages followed closely behind.

"This humble subject Shang Yang, awaits the Heavenly Emperor's command!"

"Gui Che requests to be dispatched, willing to level all obstacles for the Heavenly Emperor!"
