"Master..." the Holy Mother of the Turtle Spirit said coquettishly, begging her master not to put such great pressure on Lord Ketu.
The Tongtian Sect Leader snorted, dispelling his abyssal and boundless holy might, and Cao Ya immediately felt much more relaxed.
This Lingbao Celestial Venerable is definitely at the peak of the second level of the Primordial Chaos realm, and is probably only a step away from the third level...
Cao Ya thought to himself, "The Primordial Spirit Treasure Celestial Venerable must be about to break through to the Seven-Star High-Level!"
Previously, he was unaware, but the Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit, a peak Quasi-Saint, did sense it... naturally, it was the Tongtian Sect Master's deliberate act.
The abilities of such unparalleled saints are beyond imagination!
"Master, please come inside and have a seat," said the Holy Mother Turtle Spirit.
However, the Tongtian Sect Leader did not enter his disciple's cave. Instead, he stood on the edge of the cliff, with his hands behind his back, gazing at the sea. His expression carried a special meaning.
"I won't go in. I've come here to tell you something important!"
Cao Ya and Guiling Shengmu exchanged a glance, both of them astonished.
"Master, if there's anything you need, you can simply send one of your attendants. Why bother coming all the way here yourself?" said the Holy Mother Turtle Spirit with a smile.
"It's not easy to get out here, so naturally we should travel around and see more," said the Tongtian Sect Leader, a hint of fierceness flashing in his eyes.
Cao Ya was immediately horrified. It turned out that in this world, the Three Pure Ones, after the Investiture of the Gods, were not only restricted by the Dao Ancestor and forced to create a realm in the Heavenly Realm to live in, rarely allowed to go out, but were also still given that red pill by the Dao Ancestor...
Once the red pill is swallowed, even a sage will face calamity and be filled with dread.
But from this, we can also see how terrifying the Dao Ancestor was!
Even the Three Pure Ones had to bow down.
"Oh, you know some secrets?" The Tongtian Sect Leader's gaze fell on Cao Ya.
Cao Ya's emotional fluctuations could be concealed from the Holy Mother of Ghosts, but not from the Master of Heaven!
However, before Cao Ya could answer, the Tongtian Sect Leader nodded to himself and said:
"Yes, you have a good relationship with the Three Sovereigns Taoist and Sun Wukong. It's normal that you've heard them mention you."
The story of the Three Pure Ones drinking the red pill is a great secret of the primordial world, but it is almost common knowledge at the Hunyuan level. It is not surprising that some weak saints also know about it.
But precisely because of this, the anger of the Tongtian Sect Leader towards the Dao Ancestor undoubtedly grew even stronger!
A sage, so revered, is bound in such a way...
He's completely lost face!
Even if the Dao Ancestor was extremely powerful and virtually invincible in the primordial world, such a fate was still unbearable for a saint who could withstand countless calamities!
"Master, what are you talking about?" The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit, completely unaware of the situation, blinked and asked.
"It's nothing," Cao Ya quickly replied, not daring to expose the shortcomings of the Tongtian Sect Master in front of the disciples of the Jie Sect.
"??" The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit became even more curious. Unfortunately, neither her mentor nor Lord Ketu seemed inclined to explain in detail, which left the Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit feeling regretful.
"By the way, Master, will you be able to freely enter and leave the Primordial World from now on?" asked the Holy Mother Turtle Spirit.
The Master of the Heavens' eyes narrowed, and he said, "We'll have to see what happens next, whether there's any progress..."
As he spoke, the Tongtian Sect Leader looked at the Turtle Spirit Mother and Cao Ya, and said solemnly:
"I have come down to the mortal realm for two reasons: first, to tour the Three Realms, personally experience the splendor of this new era, and cleanse my weary soul; second, to inform you... that the land of creation is about to be born!"
"The land where heaven and earth were created?" The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit was taken aback, and suddenly her face paled in shock.
"Is it the legendary special world left behind by the Great God Pangu?" Cao Ya also remembered that he had vaguely heard about the land of creation.
Pangu, the Great God, was also one of the three thousand Chaos Gods—or, to be more precise, the head of the three thousand Chaos Gods!
Countless years ago, in the earliest era, was the chaotic age, where only demons and gods roamed freely, and there were no boundaries or beings born after death.
In the vast chaos, the Great Dao trembled, possessing a strange divine charm that spread throughout the eight directions and six realms, nourishing innate life forms, which were called "Chaos Demon Gods".
Even the weakest of these demon gods is an extremely powerful quasi-saint!
Those who are even remotely passable are all weak saints.
Among them are even beings from the Primordial Saint Realm!
And in such a group, Pangu is undoubtedly the strongest... This shows just how powerful Pangu is!
Today, the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the Demon Ancestor Luohou, and the Chaos Divine Tree, who look down upon the primordial world and disdain the saints, all had to bow down before the Great God Pangu back then!
Originally, the demons and gods, within the boundless chaos, exchanged ideas and even fought each other, but none of them thought of creating the world and evolving the universe and all living beings.
Later, for some unknown reason, the great god Pangu decided to create the world, which brought about a calamity. In response to the Great Dao, two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine demon gods blocked the way!
The protracted cataclysm of creation brought about the death of the great god Pangu, but the primordial universe was finally formed!
During this process, more than two thousand demons also died suddenly.
Only a few hundred demon gods remained, severely injured, and most of them fled into the newly formed universe to heal their wounds.
Some demons with even more severe injuries simply reincarnated!
Only a very few beings, such as the Chaos Divine Tree, have remained in the Chaos and have never ventured into the Primordial World.
Pangu, the Great God, not only integrated all his own accumulated knowledge into the primordial world, but even the dead demon gods became resources for the growth of this universe.
Otherwise, how could so many sages have risen to prominence?
The unique secret realm where Chenxiang and Xiaoyu obtained the replicas of the "Heaven-Splitting Palm" and the Heaven-Opening Axe was one of the opportunities left behind by the Great God Pangu before his death.
There are other similar blessed lands.
It may contain the divine powers and treasures of the great god Pangu, or it may contain the remains of a dead demon god.
And the greatest of all such opportunities, without a doubt, is the creation of the world!
Throughout history, the land of creation has only been created once, and that was after the initial calamity of the Dragon and Han dynasties, when the three races of dragon, phoenix, and qilin were all in decline.
Because the number of experts in that era was small, and most of them were injured, they dared not take too many risks, so there were not many gains.
Only Hongjun and Luohou discovered the great opportunity, which led to the struggle between the Dao and the Demon. In the end, Hongjun won, defeated Luohou, and merged with the primordial Heavenly Dao, becoming invincible in the world!
Since then, countless important figures have coveted the creation of this land.
However, who can counter the methods of the great god Pangu? We can only sigh in vain!
Unexpectedly, this land of creation is about to appear a second time in the primordial universe...
Suddenly, Cao Ya became alert and on high alert.
"I'm afraid the entire primordial world is about to be thrown into turmoil!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader nodded and said, "Indeed, all the saints will gradually become aware of this."
The Three Pure Ones are the true lineage of Pangu, and their ability to achieve such spiritual responses is beyond that of ordinary sages.
As time went on, the anomalies in the land of creation became more and more obvious, and even the sages between heaven and earth could sense them.
At that time, who wouldn't be envious?
Those who can become saints are all heroes of ancient times. When they encounter great fortune, they always have to try their luck.
"No one other than a peak Quasi-Saint is allowed to enter the Land of Creation!" said the Tongtian Sect Master.
The first time, he, his eldest brother Moral Celestial Venerable, and his second brother Primordial Celestial Venerable were all newly born. Although they were born with divine origins and were already quasi-saints, they did not have enough time to cultivate and their cultivation had not yet improved. Although they had entered the Land of Creation, they were limited by their magical power and did not have any satisfactory gains.
This was also the helplessness of the primordial cultivators when the land of creation first appeared.
Some were born recently and lacked profound cultivation; others may have been born for hundreds of millions of years, but their injuries had not yet healed after the initial calamity of the Dragon-Han era. Even the Chaos Demon Gods were often severely injured and had not yet recovered...
Under such circumstances, the immortal heroes of that time naturally did not delve deeply into the exploration of the land where creation began.
But things are different now. Many eras have passed, and figures like the Three Pure Ones, the Two Elders, and Nuwa have all fully matured and become supreme saints!
Even some beings born after birth in later generations have risen to prominence, such as the Buddha, the Jade Emperor, the Three Sovereigns, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Zhen Yuanzi, and the Styx Taoist, all of whom have become saints.
There are now a large number of weak saints, more than the number of peak quasi-saints back then!
This time, we must venture deep into the land of creation and turn it upside down!
Apart from Tongtian Jiaozhu, who is at the Saint Realm, the only other members of the Jie Sect who meet the requirements are Duobao Daoren (a weak Saint), Wudang Shengmu (a Holy Mother), and Guiling Shengmu (a newly promoted peak Quasi-Saint).
Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao Niangniang, Jinling Shengmu, and others were listed on the Investiture of the Gods, and their immortal cultivation was fixed. Even with the help of the divine path, they generally possessed the strength of a peak quasi-saint or even a weak saint... However, the Land of Creation is a self-contained system, and the blessing of the divine path is very weak, so it is not easy for them to enter.
In contrast, the Chan Sect, below Yuanshi Tianzun, still has weak saints like Guangchengzi, Yunzhongzi, and Yang Jian, and Yuding Zhenren is also a peak quasi-saint.
However, compared to the Jie Sect, it had one more weak saint.
Yang Jian, who happens to be a third-generation disciple... Doesn't this show that the Chan Sect surpasses the Jie Sect in cultivating talent?
The Tongtian Sect Leader was naturally very unhappy about this.
If Yunxiao, Jinling Shengmu, Zhao Gongming, and others are still intact...
Whenever I think about it, I realize that Tongtian Jiaozhu not only harbored anger towards his second senior brother Yuanshi Tianzun, but also harbored hostility towards Daozu Hongjun!
With the birth of this new world, he is determined to delve into it, use the power of a sage to find the ultimate treasure, and break the shackles of the Red Pill!
They even managed to knock Dao Ancestor Hongjun off his horse!
"Lord Ketu, come with us into the Land of Creation," the Holy Mother Guiling invited.
To be honest, Cao Ya was somewhat tempted, after all, this meant he could have Lingbao Tianzun's backing.
After careful consideration, he shook his head and politely declined the kind offer from the Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit.
His existence was seen as a thorn in the side by many weak saints...
Lingbao Tianzun, of course, didn't care, but he inevitably brought danger to Duobao Daoren, Wudang Shengmu, and Guiling Shengmu.
“Those from Huoyun Cave shouldn’t go to the Land of Creation,” said the Tongtian Sect Leader.
The path to immortality is carefree; only by harnessing one's own power can one explore the land of creation.
Those who are powerful in the divine and human realms rely heavily on luck, yet they are unable to enter.
Tongtian Jiaozhu's words were a reminder to Cao Ya that if he was willing, it would be best to find an ally. Huoyun Cave could hardly provide any help, but Jiejiao would be a good ally.
"Thank you for your kindness, Celestial Venerable Lingbao, but my condition makes it inappropriate for me to travel with the Holy Mother Guiling and the others," Cao Ya said.
Thinking of the hordes of experts who came to block the path when Jidu Xingjun broke through to the weak saint level, even Tongtian Jiaozhu was speechless.
If, at a crucial moment, he is held back by a formidable enemy and unable to protect his disciples... Daoist Duobao and Holy Mother Wudang will both be in mortal danger! Holy Mother Guiling will certainly die!
“It’s alright, we…” Mother Guiling advised, grateful to Jidu Xingjun and unwilling to let him risk his life alone.
"Haha, don't worry about me. Even without the Fire Cloud Cave, I can still travel with Sun Wukong and the others," Cao Ya laughed.
After bidding farewell to Lingbao Tianzun and Guiling Shengmu, Cao Ya went to Huaguo Mountain and also sent messages to Honglou Cave Heaven, Shuihu Cave Heaven, and Huoyun Cave.
"The Land of Creation? It's actually about to open?"
Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, and others were all quite surprised.
"Buzz." The Three Sovereigns Daoist and Sun Wukong both activated the Great Dao and calculated the secrets of heaven.
They are not the true descendants of Pangu, and their perception in this regard lags behind that of Lingbao Tianzun.
Generally speaking, it takes many years for the commotion of creation to become so significant before it can be discovered.
Now that we have received a reminder and have clear information, we can make calculations to see through many of the fogs and get straight to the core!
“Seven thousand years from now!” A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the Three Emperors Daoist.
"It's a pity we can't go on an adventure." The Five Emperors and the others shook their heads, somewhat regretful.
"When you go, you must be careful and not be careless."
The saints, weak saints, and peak quasi-saints of Huoyun Cave looked at Cao Ya, Sun Wukong, and the others, and gave them their instructions.
"By the way, you can take these spiritual treasures and use them. Just remember to return them when you come back."
The Three Emperors Taoist was not stingy at all, and gifted his own spiritual treasures to Cao Ya and the others.
"Hiss." Cao Ya obtained the Xuanyuan Emperor Sword, which was incomparably sharp. It was no longer a second-class spiritual treasure. Over the long years, it had been nurtured and refined by the Three Sovereigns Daoist, and thus elevated to the rank of a first-class spiritual treasure.
The Earthly Emperor Shennong Furnace obtained by Wu Song and the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi Array Plate obtained by Lu Zhishen are both examples of this.
The Hetu obtained by Lin Daiyu and the Luoshu obtained by Xue Baochai, taken individually, are still second-class spiritual treasures, but when the two are combined, they can be compared with first-class spiritual treasures.
This is perfect, and it also aligns well with the unity of Daiyu and Baochai, achieving a result where two plus two is greater than four!
Sun Wukong was already a saint, and he also possessed the Ruyi Jingu Bang, a magical staff forged by Yu the Great to stabilize the sea, which was placed in the East Sea and later obtained by Sun Wukong.
Initially, the Ruyi Jingu Bang was only a third-class spiritual treasure. Gradually, it transformed into a second-class treasure, and now it is a first-class treasure.
Thank you!
The four of them, including Daiyu and Baochai, will also go; they are all at the peak of the Quasi-Saint level and are qualified to go.
The Land of Creation is absolutely off-limits to anyone below the peak Quasi-Saint level!
Even a high-ranking quasi-saint can face great calamity!
The four of them, after hundreds of thousands of years, have also touched the threshold of weak sainthood. Perhaps, in the land of creation, there will be an opportunity for them to attain enlightenment in one fell swoop!
At that time, we will truly have no fear of the Illusionary Realm or the Crimson Palace!
The grottoes of the Red Chamber and the grottoes of the Water Margin are mutually supportive, and even if the Jade Emperor himself were to arrive, they could still hold him off.
They believed that the Jade Emperor, the Taoist Master Taixu, and the Taoist Master Chixia would definitely go to the land of creation.
That magical jade... will most likely not miss this opportunity!
If the four finalists gain great benefits and their strength increases significantly, and then they return to the Earthly Immortal Realm to launch an attack... we can't keep relying on the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the Star Lord of Ketu, and the Three Sovereigns for protection, can we?
The four of them also wanted to defeat the powerful enemy with their own strength!
