"I'm afraid Hongjun has already grown suspicious.
Primordial Lord walked out of Purple Cloud Palace, his brows faintly furrowed.
Although he had explained himself, whether Hongjun believed him was another matter.
But based on his understanding of Hongjun, Hongjun must have grown suspicious by now.
After all, Hongjun was no fool.
As the first Saint of the Great Wilderness, the depth of his thoughts and considerations was far beyond what ordinary people could compare with.
He feared that Hongjun had already set his sights on him!
Primordial Lord clenched his fists, his gaze resolute.
He needed to increase his strength as soon as possible!
His current strength was roughly at Seventh Heaven of Sainthood, which did not even make him the strongest among the Six Sages of the Heavens.
His eldest brother, Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality, was at Seventh Heaven of Sainthood.
Nuwa was the same.
After all, Nuwa possessed too much merit. Creating humanity, repairing the heavens, and so on had all granted her immense merit, making her strength only slightly weaker than Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality.
After them came Tongtian and himself, both at Seventh Heaven of Sainthood.
As for the Two Sages of the West, they were the weakest, at Saint Triple Heaven.
One had to understand that different methods of becoming a Saint naturally resulted in differences in strength.
In the past, Great God Pangu had proven the Dao through strength. This was naturally the most supreme path to proving the Dao, which was why Great God Pangu's strength had been so terrifying.
As for the Two Sages of the West, they had become Saints through their grand vows. Even now, they still owed Heavenly Dao Merit, so they could only rank at the bottom.
Although his strength was not weak among the Six Sages of the Heavens, it could not be considered strong either.
Compared with Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao, he was far too weak.
If the Three Teachings unified in the future and broke away from the Mystic Gate, they would inevitably have to contend with the Mystic Gate. It would not be enough for only the disciples under them to be strong; their own strength would also be crucial.
Since they had decided to unify the Three Teachings and establish the Dao School, the Dao School would naturally have to become invincible throughout the world after its establishment, crushing all opposition!
Strength was crucial!
"Eldest Brother, Second Brother, several thousand years have passed since the division of the position of Sage Teacher of humanity was decided at the Palace of Empress Nuwa. Now that the Human Emperor is about to emerge, we should also discuss the selection of the Sage Teachers."
Tongtian looked at Primordial Lord and Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality and slowly spoke.
Humanity was about to rise, and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors would emerge.
The merit they obtained would naturally differ.
For example, the merit gained from teaching the Three Sovereigns would naturally be greater than that gained from teaching the Five Emperors.
Moreover, the Human Emperors would emerge one after another, following the course of time.
"The time has come." Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality nodded. "Now, all eight Sage Teacher positions are within the schools of the three of us brothers. Why don't we each take one of the three Sage Teacher positions for the Three Sovereigns?"
"As for the Five Emperors, Second Brother rendered the greatest service by teaching the Two Sages of the West a lesson at the Palace of Empress Nuwa. Let Second Brother take the first three Sage Teacher positions."
"Good."
Primordial Lord and Tongtian spoke at the same time, raising no objections.
After confirming the positions of the Sage Teachers of humanity, the Three Pure Ones departed and returned to their respective Dao traditions.
Kunlun, Kirin Cliff.
Primordial Lord sat cross-legged in Jade Void Palace and took out the Primordial Chaos Measuring Heaven Ruler. Saint laws surged and wrapped around it as he refined it.
The might of a Saint was truly terrifying.
Refining the Primordial Chaos Measuring Heaven Ruler took no more than an instant.
"I wonder how terrifying the Primordial Chaos Measuring Heaven Ruler will become after its grade is elevated."
Primordial Lord muttered to himself.
As a Post-Natal Merit Supreme Treasure, the Primordial Chaos Measuring Heaven Ruler was already the number one offensive treasure in the Great Wilderness.
If it could advance into an Innate Merit Supreme Treasure, its offensive power would certainly become incomparably terrifying. It might even be able to shatter a Saint's physical body with ease!
This was a great killing weapon!
Just thinking about it excited him.
With that thought, Primordial Lord no longer hesitated and directly tossed the Primordial Chaos Measuring Heaven Ruler into the Chaos Pearl.
He would wait for time to transform it.
Afterward, complicated scriptures appeared in Primordial Lord's mind. They transcended the Heavenly Dao and contained the profound principles of the Great Dao.
They were precisely the Primordial Chaos Dao Integration Art!
The Primordial Chaos Dao Integration Art was divided into thirteen stages.
They corresponded respectively to Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Profound Immortal, Golden Immortal, Grand Unity Golden Immortal, Grand Luo Golden Immortal, Quasi-Saint, Saint, Heavenly Dao Realm, Great Dao Realm, and Primordial Chaos Realm.
Once one cultivated to the Primordial Chaos Realm, one would reach the peak, transcend the three thousand laws, and form one's own Great Dao.
He had already cultivated to the tenth stage.
The future held endless possibilities!
Afterward, Primordial Lord began cultivating.
Time passed without measure in the Great Wilderness.
In the blink of an eye, several thousand years passed.
In Jade Void Palace, vast might pressed down on heaven and earth, distorting space.
At the very center, Primordial Lord sat quietly with endless mysteries surrounding him. Countless Dao Rhymes churned ceaselessly, transforming into a dense Dao cocoon that wrapped around him. Spiritual light flickered, dreamlike and illusory.
As Primordial Lord opened his eyes, two divine beams suddenly shot out. They were brilliant and blazing, carrying tremendous might, like the first ray of light from the pupils of heaven and earth when the world first opened.
The aura around him also grew deeper, older, and more vast. All kinds of forbidden auras lingered around him, making him seem even more lofty and supreme, radiating the utmost majesty.
"Although I haven't cultivated the Primordial Chaos Dao Integration Art to the eleventh stage, my strength has already reached Saint Triple Heaven!"
Primordial Lord's heart stirred.
He had advanced an entire heaven in just a few thousand years. It was simply far too fast.
One had to understand that after becoming a Saint, the distance between each heaven was like a natural chasm, with an enormous difference between them.
The Six Sages of the Heavens had all become Saints before the Witch-Demon Calamity. Countless eras had passed since then, yet the strongest, Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality, was only at Seventh Heaven of Sainthood.
This showed that the gap between each heaven required countless years of accumulation.
Yet he had broken through to Saint Triple Heaven in just a few thousand years. If news of this cultivation speed spread, it would certainly shock countless immortals to death. Even Saints would be horrified.
Of course, that was not why he had awakened now.
It was only because he had sensed that the first Human Emperor of humanity was about to be born!
"The first Human Emperor will be the future Heavenly Emperor Fuxi."
Primordial Lord sighed leisurely.
Fuxi's identity was far from simple. Not only was he the first Human Emperor, but in his previous life, he had also been a great power of the Demon Race and Nuwa's elder brother.
The merit gained from teaching him would certainly be extraordinary!
"It is also time to decide who to send to teach Fuxi."
The names of the disciples of the Chan Sect appeared one after another in his mind.
In the end, he settled on his target: Guangchengzi!
This was a great opportunity. He had to ensure that the disciple he sent was absolutely loyal to the Chan Sect and possessed an impressive identity.
For example, Ran Deng and Immortal Weng of the South Pole.
Although their statuses were high, Primordial Lord knew that in the future, one of them would go to the West and the other would go to the Heavenly Court.
As for Yunzhongzi, he was accustomed to a carefree life like a wandering cloud or wild crane. He was currently cultivating together with Zhenyuanzi at Wuzhuang Temple.
Thus, only Guangchengzi was the most suitable.
As the foremost of the Twelve Golden Immortals, he possessed the qualifications in both strength and status.
Moreover, he remained utterly loyal in later generations, making him the most suitable choice.
With that thought, a mighty divine voice resounded throughout Kunlun.
"Guangchengzi, come to Jade Void Palace at once."
The voice was vast and resounded through heaven and earth, lingering for a long time.
As the voice faded, Guangchengzi entered Jade Void Palace with a respectful expression. "This disciple pays respects to Master."
"Humanity is now about to rise, and a Human Emperor will descend into the world."
"Teaching the Human Emperor can earn great merit. This first Human Emperor is the Fuxi of old, and he will soon be born in the Fengyan Tribe. I order you to go teach Fuxi and serve as the Sage Teacher of the Human Emperor."
"..."
Primordial Lord explained some matters that required attention.
He then saw Guangchengzi looking extremely excited. "Thank you, Master, for granting me this opportunity!"
Afterward, he respectfully left Jade Void Palace and headed for humanity—the Fengyan Tribe.
