Xuan Tian, being a person from a later era, lived among a group of scoundrels, experiencing numerous struggles, and was bombarded by endless online information. Moreover, he possessed the memories of Pangu. It can be said that in the prehistoric world, there might be those with higher cultivation levels than him, but in terms of magic and spells, there was probably no one more skilled than him, not even Hong Jun.
This time, they encountered a primordial beast (this part needs to be downloaded online), which was extremely ferocious. The sorcerers were unable to subdue it for a while. Just then, Xuan Tian suddenly roared, "Brothers of the sorcerer clan, step aside! Let me take care of it!" Xuan Tian thought of how generals in the Three Kingdoms period would roar when they entered the battlefield, so he also roared it out. When the sorcerers saw him rushing towards the beast, they were worried that he was no match for it. Although he was a friend of the ancestral sorcerer Hou Tu, and his cultivation was certainly extraordinary, it was not certain that he would be superior to them in close combat. Xuan Tian rushed forward and captured the beast instantly. The other witches were still confused about what was happening. It turned out that Xuan Tian had wanted to show off his skills. When he reached the ancient beast, it seemed to know that Xuan Tian was not someone to be trifled with, and tentatively reached out with its claw. But Xuan Tian was no pushover. Although he was not very experienced in close combat, his foundation was far superior to that of the beast. Seeing the claw reach out, Xuan Tian used an enhanced version of a grappling technique from later generations, and trapped the beast. In addition, he was incredibly strong and could contend with the ancestral witches. The beast was unwilling to accept defeat but was helplessly held in its grip, filled with regret.
At this moment, the shamans realized that Xuantian was also extraordinary. They wanted to have a match with him, but considering that Xuantian was a guest invited by the ancestral shaman Houtu, they were afraid of offending Houtu and dared not bring it up. However, the shamans were straightforward and couldn't hide their thoughts, so their inner thoughts were all written on their faces. Xuantian knew they were combative, but he was also afraid of offending Houtu. Seeing their attitude, he simply brought it up himself, so that Houtu wouldn't blame them. He then proposed a friendly spar with the shamans, only a martial arts match, not a fight to the death, stopping when they were satisfied. Fearing that the shamans might get too excited and forget about the fight, he took them to a desolate place and set up an array around it to prevent the energy released during the fight from harming other living beings. The shamans all nodded in agreement, their excitement palpable. After hastily preparing, they began their duel with Xuan Tian. At first, Xuan Tian struggled; though knowledgeable, he lacked experience and nearly lost several times. Unwilling to lose face, he relied on his higher cultivation and stronger body to stubbornly endure the defeats—utterly shameless! What was supposed to be a duel turned into a blatant act of cheating. Fortunately, the other shamans didn't hold it against him. Later, as Xuan Tian fought the shamans for a longer time, he gradually gained experience and realized his actions were dishonest. He then controlled his cultivation, focusing intently on the duel. In the end, Xuan Tian, relying on his superior cultivation, fought a prolonged battle, exhausting the shamans until he emerged victorious.
For a period of time afterward, Xuan Tian would spar with the shamans every day. As he gained more experience, the shamans of the Houtu tribe became terrified of him. They would run away as soon as they saw him from afar, afraid of being dragged into his sparring. This made Xuan Tian extremely distressed, and he even thought that his luck had declined.
A century later, Xuantian felt he should return and visit. He found Houtu, explained his intentions, and prepared to leave. He invited Houtu to visit his island someday, but Houtu, having spent a hundred years with him, found him straightforward and sometimes childlike. This unintentionally stirred her maternal instincts. Seeing Xuantian leave, she was reluctant to part, but there was nothing she could do. She repeatedly urged Xuantian to restrain his temper. Xuantian didn't take it to heart; having come from the future, he already knew the ways of the world. That day was just a scheme to make everyone think he was a fool. He told Houtu not to worry, and so on. Under Houtu's reluctant gaze, he rode a cloud towards Penglai Island.
Back on Penglai Island, Xuan Tian found everyone there was well, their cultivation had improved, some even reaching the Taiyi Loose Immortal level, and their aptitude was quite good. As the people (or spirits?) greeted him, Xuan Tian glanced down at them, thinking that he might take a few talented disciples from among them in the future. He then proceeded to preach the Dao for a hundred years, sharing his insights from this experience, as if it were a review for himself. The beings below had never heard such profound teachings before, and they were all deeply grateful for Xuan Tian's great virtue, vowing to serve him after achieving success in their cultivation.
A century later, after Xuan Tian finished his lecture, seeing that everyone was still trying to comprehend what he had said, he instructed his attendant not to disturb them and to leave once they had awakened. He then went to the Dutian Palace to cultivate, which is another story.
After returning to the Heavenly Court, Di Jun was filled with remorse for not speaking up for Xuan Tian, which had led to Xuan Tian being taken away by the Wu Clan and giving them an unfathomably powerful ally. Seeing Di Jun's distress, Taiyi suggested that he try to probe Xuan Tian's intentions. If necessary, he could make him disappear. Taiyi reasoned that he and his elder brother possessed powerful treasures and had the assistance of the Ten Great Demon Saints; killing someone who hadn't yet attained sainthood would be a piece of cake. Di Jun thought this made sense and ordered his subordinate Shang Yang to search for Xuan Tian in his cave on Buzhou Mountain. However, Shang Yang reported that Xuan Tian was no longer in the cave; it had been abandoned by him, and only a few minor demons remained inside. Di Jun, having no other option, instructed Shang Yang to keep an eye on Xuan Tian and report back immediately if any news emerged. Taiyi wondered why Dijun was so wary of Xuantian. He wanted to say something but didn't know where to begin. He thought to himself that Xuantian was also a person with a seat in Zixiao Palace, bestowed upon him by the Dao Ancestor. How could he not come to listen to the Dao in the future? He could make a decision when he listened to the Dao again next time.
Sure enough, when the second lecture was held at Zixiao Palace, they finally saw Xuantian arrive leisurely. Xuantian's cultivation was now even more profound, which made Dijun even more annoyed. Just as he was about to speak to Xuantian, he saw Xuantian walk straight to a seat in the front row, nod to the Three Pure Ones, and then nod to Nuwa as a greeting. After taking his seat in the head seat, Xuantian closed his eyes to rest, and it was inappropriate for Dijun to disturb him.
When the Three Pure Ones saw Xuantian enter, they were also inclined to approach him. They all harbored a concern about Xuantian's identity. Xuantian was formed from the head of Pangu, and the head is the abode of consciousness. If Xuantian was the embodiment of Pangu's consciousness, then to reunite Pangu's power, he would have to absorb the three of them and the Twelve Primordial Ancestral Witches. However, they had all regained their own consciousness, and despite their great kindness to Pangu, none of them would willingly allow their spirits to dissipate. Therefore, this great question weighed heavily on their minds. They had originally planned to ask Hongjun after his sermon, but Hongjun said that the Zixiao Palace would remain closed for a thousand years after the sermon, and they could only enter during the next sermon. They didn't see Hongjun, and when they returned, Xuantian had also left. They only heard Houtu mention that Xuantian had a cave on Buzhou Mountain, so they rushed there, but like Shang Yang, they couldn't find Xuantian. The three were uneasy and restless. They intended to go into seclusion to cultivate, but they couldn't enter a meditative state and ultimately... The attempt ended in failure. Finally, Laozi said to Yuanshi Tongtian, "My two junior brothers, there's no need for this. Xuantian's cultivation is so profound that perhaps only Master Hongjun in Zixiao Palace can surpass him. If he wanted to reunite Pangu's power, with his strength, we would likely be extinct long ago. But he hasn't done so, and there must be a reason for that. When cause and effect come to an end, we should instead cultivate our Dao and power in seclusion, hoping to attain the Dao like Master Hongjun. Then, even if Xuantian wanted to reunite Pangu's power, we would have nothing to fear."
