Primordial Wilderness: I Am Hong Yun, and at the Start I Trade My Saint Position for a Wife

"Fellow Daoist Di Jun, don't be rash!"

"There's still room to turn things around. I'll find a way to save you..."

Di Jun merely shook his head.

He appreciated Hong Yun's kindness.

But Di Jun had made up his mind!

After his soul was damaged and he had resolved to die, Di Jun saw the laws governing the Primordial World more clearly than ever.

The Heavenly Dao stood above all, governing the order of heaven and earth in the Primordial World.

It should have been without thought, desire, or emotion!

It had only one instinct as the Heavenly Dao: to constantly perfect itself.

But the Saints who entrusted themselves to the Heavenly Dao were not stones. They had their own desires and aims.

How could the Heavenly Dao remain impartial when guided by the hearts of Saints?

The Saints sought providence and the power to enlighten the world. The more providence they possessed, the greater the Heavenly Dao's authority. With its blessing, their own strength grew, and they cultivated faster!

As for Dao Ancestor Hong Jun...

He hoped to gather the power of the laws of heaven and earth, govern the world through the Saints, and become more deeply united with the Heavenly Dao!

Until he finally stole the Heavenly Dao outright...

I am the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao is me.

He would leap across the great realm that lay beyond cultivation!

Thus...

The Ancestral Shamans, born as gods of the laws, were unwelcome in the world as the Heavenly Dao perfected itself. They were even more unwelcome in the eyes of Dao Ancestor Hong Jun and the Saints!

If you control all the laws, what's left for us to do?

And Di Jun was the same.

He sat in the Heavenly Court, ruling over countless demon clans
