One Day, Five Saints: The Age of Saints

On this day, the Primordial World welcomed three Hunyuan Saints. The Three Pure Ones successively attained Attain Sainthood, and their powerful Saint aura caused all living beings in the world to tremble.

The phenomena of Hun Yuan and the phenomenon of Attain Sainthood have been present in the Primordial World for a long time. The wondrous sounds of heaven and earth arose, the aura of Saint descended from the heavens, sweet rain was sprinkled all over the Primordial Wilderness, heavenly flowers fell, purple mist rose, and rosy light followed one's body!

The stars in the sky showered down their brilliance, filling the air with spiritual energy. Visibly, the grass and trees sprouted and grew leaves in an instant, transforming into towering trees that stretched to the sky, lush and verdant.

Countless Primordial Wilderness creatures gained sentience and immediately took human form, reaping numerous benefits.

All living beings were immersed in the oppressive power of the Saint.

However, when some Great Powers came to their senses, they discovered that their method of Attain Sainthood was actually to establish an Attain Sainthood. But this was not the main point of concern. The main point was that the Taishang Being established a religion called the Human Teachings. So, was this Human Teachings for people of humanity, or for people of the human race?

This is the real focus of everyone's attention!

Because the Taishang Being primarily Preaching the Dao to humans, other races were treated as secondary, especially the Golden Core Dao, which was a cultivation method specifically created for humans.

"Does this mean that the Taishang supports humanity becoming the master of humankind?"

"If that's the case, what's the point of playing the Dragon Contest?"

Humanity was created by Nuwa, and Donghua's attitude towards it is ambiguous. Now, with the addition of Taishang, who can stop the rise of humanity?

It's important to understand that the Taishang is not a single person; he represents the Three Pure Ones, three Hunyuan Saints.

In the Primordial Wilderness Blood Sea, Minghe watched as the Three Pure Ones established their teachings, attained enlightenment, and became Attain Sainthood. He frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

He had prepared for the Asura Race to fight Blood Sea and vie for the position of Lord of Humanity, but now that the Three Pure Ones have attained Attain Sainthood, things seem to have changed.

"And could I also establish a religion?"

He just witnessed the Three Pure Ones establishing their religion and the heavens bestowing merit. Although Attain Sainthood is mainly due to the merit of creating the world and the Primordial Violet Qi, why not take the merit? Even if he cannot Attain Sainthood, it is still a good thing to advance his cultivation!

Minghe spoke, "Come see me immediately!"

Not long after, the four demon kings, Zizaitian Great Brahma Heaven, Desire Color Heaven, and Shiva Heaven, and the four demon generals, Vishnu Indra, Rudra, and the Ghost Mother, arrived in the hall.

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

Minghe nodded and said, "I have something to entrust to you. In addition to training the Asura soldiers, you also need to do one other thing during this period, which is to increase the population of the Asura Race. The Ancestor wants to Preaching the Dao within the race."

The group was a little confused after hearing this, wondering what their ancestor was up to this time. After establishing the Asura Race, their ancestor had basically ignored them, acting as if they didn't exist.

It's truly baffling that they were suddenly tasked with training Asura soldiers and generals, and now they're being Preaching the Dao within the clan.

If it weren't for the fact that the Inner Demon tribulation hadn't yet descended, they would seriously suspect that their ancestor had been possessed.

"I will obey the Ancestor's command!"

Minghe said in a deep voice, "This matter is your current priority. You must speed things up. I will begin expounding on the Great Dao shortly!"

The group accepted the order once again. After all, they knew their ancestor's character; once he made a decision, it was not to be changed, and the task had to be carried out quickly, otherwise their lives might truly be in danger.

On Kunlun Mountain, the extraordinary phenomenon of the Three Pure Ones Attain Sainthood gradually disappeared, and the three reunited, all showing long-lost smiles.

During this period, Nuwa first attained Attain Sainthood and then Donghua attained enlightenment, achieving the supreme Heavenly Emperor Position. The three of them were already extremely anxious.

If they still cannot attain enlightenment, then the benefits of the Primordial Wilderness will be divided up by Donghua and Nuwa. Even if they eventually attain enlightenment and become Attain Sainthood, they will still be subordinate to the two of them. How could they accept that?

But after today, all the gloom will vanish, and the era of the Three Pure Ones will begin. So what if Donghua and Nuwa form an alliance? What do they have to fear?

"Second brother, third brother, congratulations!"

"We should share the joy!"

The three exchanged pleasantries.

At this moment, the disciples of the Three Pure Ones also flew over from a distance.

"Congratulations, Master, on attaining Attain Sainthood!"

Congratulations to my senior uncle/master uncle on attaining Attain Sainthood!

Looking at his disciples, the Three Pure Ones gradually came to their senses from the joy of attaining enlightenment, as they needed to maintain their aloof and dignified demeanor in front of them.

After everyone offered their congratulations, the Taishang Lord spoke, saying, "I prefer stillness to movement. Although I established the Human Teachings, I have not had the intention of taking on many disciples. Xuandu is my personal disciple, and will be my only personal disciple. From now on, Xuandu will be the Grand Master of the Human Teachings, in charge of everything within the Human Teachings."

Taishang speaking, the Supreme Lord took out the Taiji Diagram, the most precious treasure of the sect, and handed it to Xuandu, saying, "Today, I temporarily bestow the Taiji Diagram upon you so that you may comprehend the Great Dao, attain enlightenment as soon as possible, expand our Human Teachings, and spread the great righteousness of the Mystic Sect!"

The Taiji Diagram is a sacred treasure of the Taishang. It was only bestowed upon Xuandu to help him cultivate better. However, this scene alone was enough to make the disciples of Yuanshi and Tongtian envious, wishing they could take his place.

That is the Taiji Diagram, a supreme Innate Supreme Treasure. If one can comprehend the Taiji Dao of Yin-Yang, one will surely become Quasi-Saint.

Xuandu did not refuse and readily accepted the Taiji Diagram. His personality was very similar to that of the Taishang; he was also someone who disliked crowds.

However, now that the Human Teachings Sect has just been established, it is bound to take in some disciples and impart its Human Teachings and techniques. It seems that this task has now fallen on my shoulders.

Yuanshi looked at his seven disciples below and said, "You are my personally trained disciples, and from now on you will be the second generation of true successors of the Chan Teachings. All affairs of the Chan Teachings will be managed by Nanji. I hereby temporarily bestow upon you the Pangu Banner to aid your cultivation, and I hope you will attain enlightenment soon!"

Antarctica respectfully accepted the Pangu Banner and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Master. This disciple will certainly live up to your expectations!"

Yuanshi nodded, quite satisfied with his eldest disciple. He then looked at the others and said, "I am Yuanshi, the beginning of all things, the origin of all phenomena. Therefore, my Chan Teachings should have twelve direct disciples, which is the number of the One."

"Guangchengzi is the head of the twelve disciples. I hereby bestow upon you the Heaven-Turning Seal, the Eight Trigrams Purple Ribbon Immortal Robe, the Soul Falling Bell, the Cloud-Sweeping Robe, and the Male and Female Swords!"

Buzhou Mountain remained intact, but the Fantian Seal was still forged by Yuanshi. It is unknown what its raw materials were or what Yuanshi used to forge it, but since it was bestowed upon Guangchengzi of the twelve disciples of the Chan Teachings, it must not be a simple object.

"Chijingzi is the second of the twelve direct disciples. I hereby bestow upon you the Yin-Yang, the Eight Trigrams Purple Ribbon Immortal Robe, and the Water-Fire Blade."

"..."

After Yuanshi Tianzun finished bestowing rewards upon his six current disciples, he mobilized the Heavenly Dao Power, and the great power of the Saint spanned the heavens and earth.

"I am the Yuanshi Tianzun the Yuqing Purity Realm, the founder of the Chan Teachings, and I have already Attain Sainthood. Three thousand years from now, I will be recruiting disciples on Kunlun Mountain. Those with good foundations and profound virtues may enter my sect, listen to the Great Dao of the Saint, and enlighten all beings!"

With the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, the voice of the Yuanshi Beginning spread throughout the Primordial World and Myriad Worlds, and all living beings heard the Chan Teachings's words about accepting disciples.

At this moment, all living beings in the Primordial Wilderness stirred. If they could become disciples of Saint, they would be able to roam freely in the Primordial Wilderness. Just look at the achievements of the first Saint Disciple of the Primordial Wilderness sage.

Because the first Saint was none other than Hongjun's seven disciples, namely the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Nuwa, Donghua, Jieyin and Zhunti.

They don't aspire to the achievements of these people; they would be content as long as they could break through to the Quasi-Saint realm.

Many people who felt they had good aptitude went to Kunlun Mountain, wanting to become Chan Sect Disciple Yuanshi Tianzun and the Chan Sect.

On Kunlun Mountain, Tongtian looked at his disciples. At this time, he only had three personal disciples: Duobao, Jin Ling, Wudang, but he had more than two thousand nominal disciples.

Tongtian spoke, saying, "I have four direct disciples who are also true disciples of the Interception Sect, and they will lead the Interception Sect!"

"Duobao, you are my eldest disciple and also the senior brother of the Interception Sect. I hereby temporarily bestow upon you the Immortal Slaying Sword, to take charge of the Interception Sect and manage the male immortals!"

"Jin Ling, you are my second disciple and the eldest sister of the Interception Sect. I hereby temporarily bestow upon you the Immortal Severing Sword to manage the female immortals in the sect."

"Wudang, you are my third disciple and the second senior sister of the Interception Sect. I hereby temporarily bestow upon you the Immortal Trapping Sword. Because of your carefree nature, I will not assign you any sect affairs, but you may participate in all sect affairs!"

The group bowed and said, "Thank you, Master!"

Then, Tongtian the Heavenly Dao, wielding the great power of Saint, and his voice echoed throughout the world.

"I am the Sect Master Tongtian of Shangqing, and I have now founded the Interception Sect and achieved Attain Sainthood. Three thousand years from now, I will be recruiting disciples on Kunlun Mountain. Those who are destined to be with me may enter my sect, hear the great Dao of the Saint, and be enlightened by the teachings of the sage!"

The Tongtian sound echoed throughout the world, a sound as powerful as the roar of the Great Dao, devoid of any emotion.

However, this sound was so pleasing to all beings, after all, the requirements of the Primordial Yuanshi were quite high, requiring those with good foundations and abundant blessings to be able to hear it.

This sounds simple, but it's actually not simple at all. After all, how many people in the entire Primordial Wilderness could Saint say had a good foundation and deep blessings?

Therefore, Tongtian's statement that "anyone with affinity can enter the path" brings joy to all beings. After all, having affinity makes things much simpler and the threshold is relatively low. Perhaps even someone below the Immortal Dao could have an affinity with Tongtian.

Once you become a disciple of Saint, your path to the Great Dao will be incredibly smooth, and your powerful background will allow you to roam freely throughout the Primordial Wilderness.

Yuanshi frowned slightly upon hearing Tongtian's words. He felt that Tongtian had lowered the bar too much. He wanted to say something, but seeing that all the disciples were present, he remained silent, as Tongtian's authority still needed to be maintained.

Just as the Three Pure Ones finished their pronouncement, endless golden light began to emanate from the Western Continent. The light rose from the Western Region and then spread throughout the entire Primordial World, with everyone enveloped in the golden light.

A colossal Bodhi Tree appeared between heaven and earth, and Zhunti's figure grew even taller, with a long river encircling him, emanating a terrifying power that seemed capable of captivating anyone with a single glance.

Then another Dharma image appeared, seated on Merit Golden Lotus, surrounded by heavens, with the Three Thousand Great Daos in operation, where Life and Death Illusion are all within a single thought.

"Are these two also going to attain Attain Sainthood?"

This question arises in everyone's mind unconsciously. The pattern of the ancient world is really going to change, and the era of the Hunyuan Saint is coming.

"Senior brother, you go first!"

Zhunti and Jieyin have reached their optimal state; they are indeed ready to attain Attain Sainthood today.

"Alright, then I'll take the challenge!"

After the Jieyin were spoken, he circulated the Great Dao within his body, causing the Three Flowers to manifest simultaneously, the Five Elements to converge, and Yin-Yang to maintain their balance...

As the Great Dao Jieyin and circulated, the Great Dao, which is based on life, death, and extinction, begins to merge.

The ultimate life!

The ultimate death!

Nothingness exists; heaven and earth, and all living beings, are all within nothingness, and life and death are but a thought away.

At this moment, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth frantically converged into Jieyin's body, and his magic power also transformed into Hunyuan Magical Power.

"Combine!"

The Jieyin uttered a soft cry, his mouth containing the Heavenly Mandate. As his voice fell, the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown, the Five Qi Returning to the Origin converged, and Auspicious Cloud manifested, descending in boundless auspicious clouds. A Purple Qi Comes from the East from the east and was born within the Auspicious Cloud.

Jieyin emanated a mysterious light, which was the Great Dao, the Heavenly Dao, the Chaos, the Primordial Chaos, containing the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, profound and mysterious beyond description!

Eight Hundred Side Gates methods, primarily based on the Dao of Immortal Dao, were manifested. This is the Dao of Jieyin Buddha, the Dao of Zhunti, and the foundation of later "Buddha".

Jieyin and Zhunti innovated and created Eight Hundred Side Gates methods of Immortal Dao on the basis of the Three Thousand Great Daos. The two of them transmitted these methods to the heavens and the earth, and only by practicing their own Dao could they Attain Hunyuan Dao.

"Buzz!"

The emergence of the Primordial Violet Qi and the Jieyin the Great Dao made the entire world appear as if it were bathed in gold, exuding unparalleled holiness!

So far, Jieyin has completed all the steps before attaining enlightenment; all that remains is to break free from the constraints of the River of Destiny and thus transcend it.

Time and the River of Destiny arrived as promised, Jieyin step into the River of Destiny. The Great Dao Power condensed into the Merit Golden Lotus, which shattered the River of Destiny with a single strike.

Strange phenomena appeared in the heavens and earth, Jieyin one to enlightenment, after which one's cultivation level continuously improved.

Peak of the Hunyuan Double Heaven Realm!

This scene shocked all living beings in the Primordial Wilderness, especially the Three Pure Ones, who never expected that Jieyin could achieve the peak of the Second Heaven in one fell swoop.

Taishang if the Supreme Lord had not performed the merit of creating the world, he would only be at this level. The Yuanshi and the Tongtian are even a small realm lower than the Jieyin. This situation is indeed a bit hard for them to accept and hard to believe.

They are the Three Pure Ones, transformed from the Pangu's Primordial Spirit. What makes Jieyin and Zhunti so special?

But before the three could think further, Zhunti began to attain enlightenment. The long river formed by the Great Dao of Karma encircled the heavens and earth, and the cause and effect of all living beings were revealed in turn.

Zhunti the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, Zhunti radiated boundless light, uniting all paths to achieve the ultimate Great Dao of Karma.

The River of Destiny appeared, Zhunti, holding the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, swept it three times in succession. The chasm of the River of Destiny disappeared, Zhunti successfully broke through the shackles of the River of Destiny, reaching a state of transcendence.

At this moment, Zhunti the Attain Hunyuan Dao, reaching the mid-stage of the Hunyuan Double Heaven.

At this point, all seven of Hongjun's disciples Attain Hunyuan Dao.

But the matter wasn't over yet. Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance and spoke at the same time:

"Heavenly Dao above, I, Jieyin / Zhunti, Preaching the Dao for tens of thousands of years, and the teaching and propagation of the Dharma have been perfected. Now I establish the great Mystic Sect: Buddhist Teachings. The Twelve-Grade Merit Golden Lotus will Buddhist Teachings as the treasure to protect the sect. Buddhist Teachings established!"

As soon as the words fell, the Heavenly Dao Power reappeared in the heavens, forming the Heavenly Dao Eye, which scanned Jieyin and Zhunti. Then the Heavenly Dao Eye dissipated, and the Mysterious Yellow Merit was formed.

At the same time, the Mystic Sect's fortune also converged on the two of them.

By Jieyin the three corpses to emerge, and through the aid of two kinds of merit, communicating with the Heavenly Dao with the Primordial Violet Qi, one can achieve the status of Saint!

Only the Good and Evil Two Corpses appeared in Zhunti, and the two kinds of merits fell, while the Primordial Violet Qi rose into the sky.

"Boom!"

Just when everyone Zhunti was about to Attain Sainthood, he suddenly stopped. This was because he had used up all his merits and had not yet severed his three corpses. He did not meet the requirements for either of the two methods of Attain Sainthood, so he was stuck.

Zhunti's face instantly darkened; he had never expected this situation.

Upon seeing this, Yuanshi on Kunlun Mountain burst into laughter.

"Zhunti here to be funny? He's so embarrassing!"

Tongtian didn't say anything. He didn't care at all whether Zhunti could become Attain Sainthood, because all he was thinking about now was his duel with Donghua.

Although he didn't know what realm Donghua was at now, he was definitely higher than him.

He had little confidence in this battle!

On the Western Continent, Jieyin, seeing that Zhunti could not Attain Sainthood, began to ponder. Their foundation and the foundation of the Western Continent were still too low. Even with the two of them establishing a sect together, Zhunti could not Zhunti.

At this moment, Zhunti's heart was in turmoil. Was he truly destined to be an unworthy Saint? He then looked at Jieyin and asked, "Senior Brother?"

Jieyin awoke from his reverie, his aura ethereal, and said in a deep voice, "Junior brother, don't rush. Calm your mind. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to Attain Sainthood; you can't miss it."

Since he cannot Attain Sainthood this time, these merits will help Zhunti improve his cultivation level. Once the merits are used up, there will be no more such opportunities in the future. The merits for Attain Sainthood are enormous; will he still have the merits and fortune to establish a sect and the Mystic Sect) in the future?

The answer is no!

The reason Zhunti is anxious is that he doesn't know how to obtain it.

"The only way now is to make a grand vow and request merit from Heavenly Dao; only then can you become Attain Sainthood."

Upon hearing this, Zhunti's expression softened slightly, but it quickly darkened again.

Many people in Primordial Wilderness have done things like using Hongyuan to gain merit, such as the Four Saints, the Ancestor Dragon, the Yuanfeng, the First Qilin, and Dijiang. However, those people did so out of necessity. Does he really have to do the same thing today?

Once you make a grand vow, you must fulfill it. Otherwise, Heavenly Dao will not let you off the hook. After all, the merits of your grand vow are given to you by Heavenly Dao so that you can do good things for Heavenly Dao and make the Primordial World a better place. In this way, both sides can benefit.

However, Zhunti must do his job well for the Heavenly Dao and cannot say no to Heavenly Dao, otherwise the Heavenly Way will have plenty of ways to control him.

This is also why Yuanfeng, despite being in the Volcano of Immortality, dared not step out.

Zhunti for a while, Zhunti stopped hesitating, since this was the only way.

"Junior brother, let's go together!"

Zhunti quickly refused, saying, "How can I involve you in this, Senior Brother? I can handle it alone."

Jieyin laughed and said, "Between you and me, there is no distinction between us."

Zhunti that Jieyin was resolute, Zhunti nodded, and the two of them together made Forty-Eight Great Vows to the Heavenly Dao, guaranteeing the great prosperity of the Western Region and the salvation of all people, etc.

"Boom!"

Their grand ambitions resounded throughout the heavens, Heavenly Dao responded, sending a thunderous boom through the heavens.

The Heavenly Dao Eye condensed once more, considering the grand ambitions of the two. Not long after, the Heavenly Dao Eye disappeared, but a large amount of Merit Power and Heavenly Dao Power converged upon it.

Combining his previous merits, Zhunti's Zhunti Primordial Violet Qi instantly soared into the sky, transforming into a Golden Bridge that guided Zhunti's true spirit into the Heavenly Dao.

Zhunti attained sainthood!

The Saint's aura spread throughout the three realms and ten directions, reaching all living beings.

Thus, the Primordial Wilderness ushered in the era of Saint!
