Primordial World: I, Burning Lamp, Hijack the Western Saints' Fortunes from the Start

Reborn in the primordial world, he finds himself as Daoist Randeng-the innate divine being destined to fare worst among the three thousand guests of Purple Firmament Palace.

To think that even during the Investiture of the Gods war, his cultivation would still be only at the level of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal;

That despite being the deputy leader of the Chan Sect, he would be sent out as cannon fodder to test the Ten Absolute Arrays;

And that after defecting to the Western Sect, he would rank below even Duobao, a member of the younger generation.

Randeng vows never to repeat those mistakes. In this life, he will seize control of the West from the very beginning.

By continually repairing the earth's spiritual veins, he earns merit and acquires spiritual treasures.

Winning the favor of the Western lands before anyone else, he cloaks himself in providential fortune and seizes the opportunities originally destined for the Two Sages of the West.

He establishes the Western Sect first, enlisting Jieyin and Zhunti to aid his cultivation while he himself journeys through the East.

He gathers the Three Lamps of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity. After hearing the Dao preached at Purple Firmament Palace, he severs three perfect corpses and forges an unsurpassed foundation;

He seeks out the thirty-six Sea-Calming Divine Pearls, opens up thirty-six heavens, and perfects the world to earn immense merit;

Then, drawing on his knowledge of the future, he spurs the revival of the Dao of Humanity and the Dao of Earth throughout the primordial world. Heroes rise together, and myriad Daos contend.

Hundreds of millions of years later, when Randeng transcends the great primordial world and looks back, his countless insights resolve into a single verse:

"The spirit-coffin lamp burns ever bright, illuminating ages past;

One solitary flame holds eternal truth."
