Primordial Wilderness: I am Hong Yun, Starting with a Saint Position to Exchange for a Wife

Therefore.

Upon arriving in the Primordial Wilderness, Hong Yun made up his mind.

First, he would bring Zhen Yuan Zi along to contend!

The two of them would fight together for the seat of sage fortune.

If they couldn't win, then he would yield.

And this time, he had to yield completely!

Since he was giving up his seat from the start, his sliver of hope lay in this very word: "relinquish"!

Sure enough, the moment he settled on the strategy of total relinquishment, the system activated.

Hong Yun had already been confident at heart, and the system only bolstered his resolve.

So he wasn't flustered.

Meeting Hongjun's gaze, Hong Yun immediately flashed a smile without a second thought.

Revealing a perfect set of eight teeth!

"???"

Watching Hong Yun's guileless grin, Hongjun couldn't help but wonder.

"It seems he truly doesn't grasp the opportunity here..."

"But then, since Hong Yun has taken the seat, why would he give it to another?"

"Is this simply his nature?"

Still, this wasn't the time to dwell on it.

Hongjun could only withdraw his gaze.

Addressing the three thousand Innate Deities below, he declared in a clear voice:

"I am Hongjun, having attained the position of Heavenly Dao Saint. By the revelation of the Heavenly Dao, I shall expound the Dao here at the Purple Cloud Palace."

The crowd below had already heard the word "saint" when Hongjun became a saint and proclaimed it to the Primordial Wilderness.

But they knew little of sainthood.

They didn't question him, instead speaking in unison:

"We thank Saint Hongjun for transmitting the Dao!"

Hongjun nodded.

He glanced again at the foremost seats, the corner of his mouth twitching almost imperceptibly.

After a moment's hesitation, he continued:

"From now on, sit in these seats as arranged to listen to the Dao!"

Hearing this, Hong Yun breathed a quiet sigh of relief.

"At last, the first step in reversing my fate has begun!"

"But I wonder if things will revert to their original course from here..."

A moment later, Hong Yun quickly reined in his wandering thoughts.

Hongjun wasted no words and began his lecture directly.

"The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name."

At these words, Hong Yun's eyes widened in shock.

Leaving everything else aside, he was all too familiar with this phrase!

He couldn't help but look at Taiqing, who sat at the very front, listening with a straight face, and wondered: "Damn, which of you copied the other?"

"You've thrown me off completely!"

Hongjun paid no heed to the reactions below.

Shaking his head and closing his eyes, he continued:

"What is the Dao?"

"You Innate Deities are born with mastery over the Power of Law. The path where the Power of Law merges, allowing one to attain the Hunyuan, is the Dao!"

These opening words from Hongjun instantly captivated everyone's attention.

Even Hong Yun quickly pulled his focus back, no longer dwelling on such trivial thoughts!

Hongjun's voice was unhurried.

Yet the ethereal sound tugged at everyone's heartstrings.

These beings born after Heaven opened, growing in the world, naturally commanded the Laws.

Though Hong Yun was a soul traversing from a later age, his control over the Power of Law came as naturally as breathing in his past life.

Like instinct!

Despite commanding the Laws, Hong Yun's cultivation only involved comprehending them and accumulating mana.

He focused solely on refining the Laws!

As for the path ahead, he and Zhen Yuan Zi were like mice crawling up a chimney—completely in the dark.

Fortunately, before they had even taken form, Hong Yun and Zhen Yuan Zi were drawn together by the Power of Law, growing close.

So Hong Yun borrowed Zhen Yuan Zi's Earth Book and gleaned a sliver of the Law of Earth.

Completing the Four Symbols of Heaven Opening!

Though this sliver of the Law of Earth was far inferior to the three Laws Hong Yun had originally cultivated.

In quantity, it was nearly negligible.

But it was a qualitative breakthrough!

The Laws could now form a simple cycle, flowing.

The moment Hong Yun fused that sliver of the Law of Earth, he felt as if he had entered a brand-new world.

When sparring with Zhen Yuan Zi, the Law of Earth within him, supported by the other three Laws, remained unaffected by Zhen Yuan Zi's Earth Book.

Before this, what detailed realm divisions existed in the Primordial Wilderness?

Not until now, when Hongjun first preached the Dao.

Did Hong Yun finally understand:

"So, upon taking form, I carried a trace of immortal divinity, placing me at the Taiyi realm. Now, I have reached the Daluo realm!"

"I can be called a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal!"

Hongjun's sermon began with the division of realms.

Using his own path of Immortal Dao as an example, he spoke from the lowest to the highest, all the way to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal!

"I divide the cultivation of the Immortal Dao into these several layers."

"Living beings of the Primordial Wilderness, once ruled by the Laws, drifted in ignorance, unaware of themselves."

"Only when they embark on the path of cultivation do they sense the wonder of Heaven and Earth's spiritual energy, drawing it into their bodies to temper themselves. As they grow stronger, their Primordial Spirit is born!"

"But at this stage, they only know to accumulate mana, understanding the 'how' but not the 'why'! Not until they touch the Power of Law—this is the first layer."

At this point, Hongjun paused briefly.

He swept his gaze across the three thousand Innate Gods in the Purple Cloud Palace.

These Innate Gods were all born commanding the Power of Law.

There was little need to explain to them the cultivation of a realm where one hadn't even touched the Laws.

Thus, after a brief pause, he moved on without elaboration.

Directly to the next realm!

"When cultivation touches the Power of Law, one comprehends the Laws and endures the Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, becoming a Heavenly Immortal!"

"The Heavenly Immortal realm grants a lifespan of one epoch, ten thousand eight hundred years..."

"The True Immortal realm grants a lifespan of one yuan, one hundred twenty-nine thousand six hundred years..."

"At this point, those who have fully comprehended the Laws may attempt to command the Power of Law."
