Primordial World: I, Emperor Jun, Only Want to Build the Primordial World

The two future Sages were an investment Emperor Jun could make with guaranteed returns.

This Causality might prove useful, or it might not, but either way, the two future Sages owed him a debt of Causality.

With Emperor Jun intervening, the surrounding Primordial Spiritual Energy instantly grew denser.

As though sensing the gradual increase in the surrounding spiritual energy, the Primordial Geng Metal Energy and the Seven Treasure Tree immediately began absorbing Primordial Spiritual Energy at a faster rate.

Two vortices formed where they stood, each gathered from Primordial Spiritual Energy.

Yet this did not affect the concentration of the surrounding Primordial Spiritual Energy. After all, behind the Hetu Luoshu Diagram lay endless stars.

Emperor Jun bound all that Primordial Spiritual Energy within this place, preventing it from dispersing outward.

At the same time, Emperor Jun observed the Seven Treasure Tree and the Primordial Geng Metal Energy, as though he had gained some insight.

With an ample supply of Primordial Spiritual Energy, the two transformed more quickly.

A thousand years later, two men appeared before Emperor Jun.

One wore an expression of sorrow and suffering. He was Jie Yin, transformed from the Primordial Geng Metal Energy.

The other wore an expression of compassion. He was Zhun Ti, transformed from the Seven Treasure Tree.

"Brother!"

Zhun Ti looked at Jie Yin, shame written across his face.

Zhun Ti knew of everything Jie Yin had sacrificed during their transformation.

Jie Yin ignored Zhun Ti and instead spoke to Emperor Jun first. "Thank you, Senior, for helping us brothers transform."

Zhun Ti immediately came to his senses and hurriedly added, "Thank you for your help, Senior."

Emperor Jun's assistance had indeed saved them many years and allowed them to transform ahead of time.

However, in Emperor Jun's view, transforming early was not their best choice. It was merely something they had been forced into by the conditions of Mount Sumeru.

With a thought from Emperor Jun, the Primordial Spiritual Energy he had confined around them instantly flowed into the Hetu Luoshu Diagram.

The Hetu Luoshu Diagram then returned to Emperor Jun's body on its own.

Seeing this, Zhun Ti's gaze toward the Hetu Luoshu Diagram burned with desire.

Only then did Emperor Jun turn his eyes toward Jie Yin and Zhun Ti.

Feeling Emperor Jun's gaze, Zhun Ti and Jie Yin could not help but grow tense.

The imperial aura around Emperor Jun was extraordinarily imposing, and he made no effort to conceal it.

After all, in the current Primordial World, aside from Dao Ancestor Hongjun, there was likely no living being capable of threatening Emperor Jun's life.

Even when facing the Primordial Golden Immortals of the Hidden Races, he could still escape if he could not defeat them.

So they really were Golden Immortals.

Jie Yin and Zhun Ti's realms and cultivation were laid bare before Emperor Jun's eyes.

Moreover, they were not Golden Immortals standing at the peak of the realm like Emperor Jun had been.

Jie Yin and Zhun Ti still had some way to go.

"May I ask what Senior requires of us in return for helping us?" Jie Yin asked with his sorrowful expression.

Emperor Jun glanced at Jie Yin and could not help admiring his wisdom.

Jie Yin wanted to repay this debt of Causality as quickly as possible and draw a clear line between them.

Zhun Ti, standing beside him, did not share that thought. Still, after Jie Yin spoke, he remained silent.

Emperor Jun had nothing that required their help at present. Besides, if Jie Yin thought he could settle this debt of Causality so easily, that was simply impossible.

"You two owe me a debt of Causality," Emperor Jun said directly.

Upon hearing Emperor Jun's words, Jie Yin knew his plan would not work. His already sorrowful face grew even more sorrowful.

"Yes, Senior. We brothers owe Senior a debt of Causality."

Things had already come to this point, and Jie Yin knew there was no changing it.

Zhun Ti seemed to realize something and hurriedly said, "Senior, we brothers have only just transformed, and our strength is low. I fear we cannot repay this debt of Causality in full anytime soon. Senior is magnanimous, so perhaps..."

"Perhaps we should just forget about it?"

Before Zhun Ti could finish, Emperor Jun looked at him with a half-smile, his tone full of mockery.

Facing Emperor Jun's gaze, Zhun Ti was not flustered in the slightest. Instead, he said excitedly, "That would be best!"

The half-smile on Emperor Jun's face froze, and he could not help sighing inwardly. So Zhun Ti's shamelessness was innate. I lose. This is probably my first defeat in the Primordial World, isn't it?

I can't compare. Not at all.

"Impossible. You two should carry that debt of Causality properly."

"Senior..."

Zhun Ti still wanted to struggle.

However, the moment he uttered those two words, he felt an overwhelming pressure descend upon him.

Looking at Jie Yin beside him, he saw that Jie Yin was enduring the same pressure.

At the same time, Emperor Jun's voice rang in their ears. "Have I not made myself clear? You two owe me a debt of Causality. How many times must I say it?"

"We understand, we understand."

Zhun Ti and Jie Yin spoke at the same time.

They did not dare say another word, afraid that a single careless remark might truly anger this Senior.

In an instant, the entire area fell silent.

Emperor Jun discovered that when dealing with a shameless being like Zhun Ti, the best method was to suppress him with overwhelming strength.

Still, Emperor Jun felt as though he had somehow become the villain.

Suddenly, Emperor Jun's expression shifted slightly. Ignoring Jie Yin and Zhun Ti, he left Mount Sumeru at once.

When Jie Yin and Zhun Ti felt the pressure vanish and saw Emperor Jun leave, they both let out a sigh of relief.

Zhun Ti looked at Jie Yin and said, "Brother, judging by that Senior's forceful temperament, I'm afraid this debt of Causality will not be easy to repay."

Jie Yin sighed. "I only hope that Senior will not make things too difficult for us."

Yet the sorrow on his face seemed impossible to dispel.

He had only just transformed and was already so troubled. What would become of him in the future?

Emperor Jun had left Mount Sumeru in such haste because he had received a notification from the Moon Laurel Tree.

Over the course of five epochs, both the Moon Laurel Tree and the Fusang Tree had made tremendous progress in developing their intelligence.

The Moon Laurel Tree informed Emperor Jun that it had sensed Wangshu's two descendants on the Moon Star were about to transform, and it wanted Emperor Jun to help stand guard for them.

Thus, Emperor Jun left Mount Sumeru directly.

To Emperor Jun, Wangshu's two descendants were more important than Jie Yin and Zhun Ti on Mount Sumeru.

Having accepted another's request, he had to faithfully carry it out. Only then would he be worthy of the Daoist Sect Fortune he had received from Wangshu.

Furthermore, Emperor Jun had already made himself perfectly clear on Mount Sumeru. This debt of Causality was beyond dispute.

Emperor Jun did not linger and headed straight for the Moon Star.

The moment he stepped onto the Moon Star, Emperor Jun sensed that the lunar radiance and Moon Essence of the Moon Star were continuously surging toward Xihe and Changxi.

At the same time, the Moon Laurel Tree was constantly gathering lunar radiance toward Xihe and Changxi.

With a thought from Emperor Jun, the Hetu Luoshu Diagram appeared overhead, enveloping him, the Moon Laurel Tree, Xihe, and Changxi.

The Hetu Luoshu Diagram slowly began to turn, and the formation Emperor Jun had arranged on the Moon Star was instantly activated, beginning to operate.

The formation continuously absorbed the surrounding lunar radiance, Primordial Spiritual Energy, and Moon Essence, concentrating it all where Xihe and Changxi were.

Gradually, the place where Xihe and Changxi were became filled with visible mist-like lunar radiance, Moon Essence, and spiritual energy.

This was not the final result. The formation continued condensing the surrounding lunar radiance, Primordial Spiritual Energy, and Moon Essence.

Slowly, the mist-like spiritual energy turned into liquid. The lunar radiance, Primordial Spiritual Energy, and Moon Essence fused together, forming a lake of energy that nurtured Xihe and Changxi.

Watching this scene, Emperor Jun thought, This should ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Xihe and Changxi possessed their own inheritances, as well as the inheritances Wangshu had given them. Combined with Wangshu's final gifts before her death, their foundations were exceptionally deep.

With such deep foundations, they naturally required an immense amount of energy to transform.

Fortunately, this was their home ground—the Moon Star. There was no possibility of them lacking spiritual energy or any other form of energy.
