Primordial Era: This humble Taoist is Yun Xiao, a Saint of Three Immortal Island! Author: Falling Dust

Synopsis: With hairpins coiled in virtue's purity, a red robe and white crane top a crimson tassel.

Silk ribbons tie the knot of heaven and earth, beneath straw sandals, auspicious colors are born.

Splitting heaven and earth to achieve the Tao, within Three Immortal Island, the true form is refined.

All six breaths and three corpses are cast aside, a mere step to the green phoenix leaving the Jade Capital.

Lin Yun Xiao transmigrated to the Primordial Era, becoming the renowned eldest of the Three Xiao, Empress Yun Xiao!

But, he transmigrated too early!

At this time, heaven and earth had just opened, and even his master, the future Saints of the Three Pure Ones, had not yet been born!

As Yun Xiao pondered, a line of text appeared before his eyes.

"Detected that you have transmigrated to become Fairy Yun Xiao, you have the following choices."

"One: Remain where you are, wait for the Witch-Demon Tribulation to take form, apprentice under Sect Master Tongtian, and become a direct disciple of the Sect of Interception! Reward: One drop of Pangu's Essence Blood"

"Two: Cultivate diligently, take form early, do not apprentice under Tongtian, do not respect the Three Pure Ones, and walk the path of the strongest Primordial Saint! Reward: Supreme Treasure Chest x1!"

Looking at the options before him, Yun Xiao chose without hesitation...

Primordial chaos separated, heaven and earth opened.

At this time in the Primordial Era, several tribulations had already passed since Great God Pangu split heaven and earth. Life was gradually being born and multiplying, and the originally vast and desolate Primordial Era was gradually gaining some vitality.

"Who am I?"

"Where am I?"

"Where is this?"

At this moment, above the Eastern Sea of the Primordial Era, a white cloud drifting aimlessly was asking a soul-searching triple question.

His name was Lin Yun Xiao. In his previous life, he was merely an ordinary office worker. He never expected that after just resting his head on his desk for a moment, he would wake up in this strange world.

Looking around, it was almost all endless sea, and he was clearly suspended high in the sky.

Buzz!

Just as Lin Yun Xiao was confused, a surge of information suddenly poured into his mind, causing him to freeze on the spot.

"I... I've become the first white cloud in the Primordial Era?"

Lin Yun Xiao spoke, his expression filled with disbelief. In the Primordial Era, the meaning of being first was absolutely extraordinary!

For example, the first red cloud in the Primordial Era, after taking form, became the renowned Daoist Hong Yun!

The first azure cloud, after taking form, became Bi Xiao of the later Three Xiao!

And the first black mosquito was the primordial fierce beast Daoist Wen from the Investiture of the Gods, who completely devoured Holy Mother Gui Ling!

And he, who transmigrated to become the first white cloud in the Primordial Era, his future achievements would definitely not be bad!

But, what truly shocked Lin Yun Xiao was!

If he remembered correctly, the origin of the renowned Fairy Yun Xiao in the Primordial Era was the first white cloud in the Primordial Era!

In other words, he had transmigrated to become the famous Fairy Yun Xiao??

"This..."

Lin Yun Xiao was silent for a moment. If he remembered correctly, Yun Xiao's fate in the Primordial Era was not very good!

In the Investiture of the Gods, Yun Xiao set up the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, using the Primordial Golden Dou to shave off the Three Flowers from the heads of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Sect of Elucidation, nearly wiping them out!

In the end, Venerable Lord Yuanshi appeared, bullying the weak by using the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi to smash Bi Xiao's brains out, causing her to fall. Qiong Xiao had it even worse, being directly stuffed into the Primordial Box and turned into blood.

And Yun Xiao, although not killed on the spot, was suppressed beneath Qilin Cliff, enduring the torment of the earth's pressure. In the end, she could not escape her fate and filled a spot on the Investiture of the Gods List!

It could be said that the fates of the Three Xiao were all very tragic!

"Fortunately, at this point in time, there is still a long way to go until the Investiture of the Gods!"

Lin Yun Xiao thought to himself. Innate Divine Beings are born with knowledge.

According to the memories in his mind, it should now be the early stage of the Fierce Beast Tribulation. The Myriad Innate Races were being born and multiplying. There were still several tribulations before the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation. However, thinking of Venerable Lord Yuanshi's terrifying strength, Lin Yun Xiao's heart sank slightly, feeling a sense of pressure.

In the Primordial Era, one's origin was the most important thing.

Although he had transmigrated early and his origin was the first white cloud in heaven and earth, compared to the Pangu Three Pure Ones, and Venerable Lord Yuanshi who was born from the Primordial Spirit, he was still far inferior. Not to mention anything else, just Venerable Lord Yuanshi's destined future position as a Saint of the Primordial Era was something he could not compare to.

Moreover, besides the future Venerable Lord Yuanshi!

He was currently just a white cloud that had not yet taken form, drifting between heaven and earth, without even the slightest ability to protect himself.

"Ding dong, God-Tier Option System activated, binding in progress...!"

"Ding dong, congratulations to the master, system binding successful. Given the host's current situation, the system provides three starting choices."

[Option 1: Do nothing and quietly wait until the Witch-Demon Tribulation period to take form. Upon completion, reward: a pot of Nine-Turn Golden Elixir] [Option 2: Take form early and join the Sect of Interception. Upon completion, reward: 1 Fragment of the Jade Butterfly of Creation!] [Option 3: Take form early, do not join any Saint's sect, follow the path of the Dao Ancestor, and prove oneself as a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal. Upon completion, reward: 1 Supreme Treasure Chest] [Note: These are initial options that will affect subsequent choices and rewards. Host, please choose wisely.]

So, transmigrating really does come with benefits. I have a cheat!

Hearing the prompt in his mind, Lin Yun Xiao's spirits lifted. As a transmigrator, it was only natural to have a system!

With this thought, he no longer hesitated and looked directly at the three options before him!

Option 1 was immediately ruled out!

The Primordial Era had just begun, filled with countless opportunities. The sooner one took form, the earlier they could seize the initiative and search for these opportunities.

What remained were Options 2 and 3.

Option 2 was essentially following the original Yun Xiao's path: take form early, then proceed as planned, waiting for the Witch-Demon Tribulation period to join Sect Master Tongtian's sect and become a direct disciple of the Sect of Interception.

The difficulty of this option was slightly higher than the first.

After all, taking form early was not an easy feat.

However, the reward was also significantly more generous, directly granting a Fragment of the Jade Butterfly of Creation!

The Jade Butterfly of Creation was a legendary treasure for enlightenment in the Primordial Era!

The reason Dao Ancestor Hongjun was so powerful was because he possessed most of the Fragments of the Jade Butterfly of Creation in the Primordial Era!

One could say that the value of a Fragment of the Jade Butterfly of Creation, even if it wasn't the main fragment, was comparable to a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure!

But, upon seeing Option 3, Lin Yun Xiao fell into a brief silence!

Taking form early, not joining any Saint's sect, following the path of the Dao Ancestor, and proving oneself as an supreme Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal – this path was entirely different!

Its difficulty was undoubtedly self-evident!

And according to the rule that higher difficulty yields greater rewards, the rewards within the Supreme Treasure Chest would definitely not be bad!

"Since I've come to the Primordial Era and become Yun Xiao the immortal, what's the point of just following the established path!"

After a short period of thought, Lin Yun Xiao quickly made his choice!

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for making a choice. Upon completion, you will receive the rewards from the Supreme Treasure Chest!"

"Due to the significant time span of Option 3, upon the host taking form, you will receive partial rewards from the Supreme Treasure Chest!"

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for making your first choice. An additional Novice Gift Pack has been awarded. Do you wish to open it? Yes, No!"

At the very moment Lin Yun Xiao made his choice, a series of prompts sounded in his mind, causing him to perk up!

Yes, the option he chose was Option 3: take form early, follow the path of the Dao Ancestor, and prove oneself as a supreme Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

If broken down, the tasks for this option could be divided into three stages!

First, taking form early.

Second, following the path of the Dao Ancestor. As for what this path entailed, Lin Yun Xiao didn't know yet!

Third, proving oneself as a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal, also known as a Great Dao Saint!

Originally, completing these three stages would have been unimaginably difficult!

But, unexpectedly, this Divine Selection System was quite considerate. As long as the first stage, the task of taking form, was completed, he would receive partial rewards from the Supreme Treasure Chest!

Furthermore, after his first choice, the system had even rewarded him with a Novice Gift Pack!

This felt really good!
