Primordial World: Apprenticed to Shangqing, Pitted by the Interception Sect!

Lu Yuan transmigrated into the Primordial World. As an innate god born from the first wisp of pure and turbid qi between heaven and earth, he enjoyed the favor of the world's fortune.

In theory, with an innate god's origins, attaining the Dao, becoming a mighty divine cultivator, and reigning as a revered patriarch should be well within reach-provided he possessed great wisdom and unyielding perseverance.

Yet when the celestial proclamation of Hongjun's ascension to Sagehood rang in his ears, Lu Yuan inwardly gasped in shock!

The Dao Ancestor's lectures at the Purple Firmament Palace were about to begin, but he had yet to take physical form and emerge into the world. He was destined to miss one of the greatest opportunities since the Primordial World's creation: receiving the Dao Ancestor's teachings at the Purple Firmament Palace.

And the thought of what would follow those lectures-the Wu and Demon races dominating the Primordial World, and the Six Sages attaining the Dao of Primordial Unity-sent a chill through him.

Wouldn't that mean stepping straight into the Great Tribulation of the Wu and Demons the moment I take form? A hell-mode dungeon right from the start?

Even if he somehow survived that tribulation, he would remain nothing more than an ant groveling at the Sages' feet!

If you can't beat them, join them! And so Lu Yuan, an innate god of middling pedigree, seized the opportunity before the Three Pure Ones attained Sagehood. He braved Mount Kunlun's trial formation and became a disciple of Shangqing, the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasures!
