Hongjun's Path to Immortality

Chapter 71 Hongjun's Path to Immortality

"You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub; to gain something, you must first give something; only by giving can you receive."

Looking at the tens of millions of people below waiting for him to expound the Dao, Guang Chengzi remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was extremely pained and had to repeat these few paragraphs as a way to alleviate his loss.

Both the Creation Wine and the essence of the Twelve-Grade Creation Lotus are unique and extremely rare.

The former was created by Nuwa, the first goddess of creation in the primordial world, who personally gathered the essence of heaven and earth, extracted the essence of the Great Dao, and mixed countless rare and precious treasures.

Its rarity is such that it can be considered the number one divine wine in the primordial world, a condensation of the Great Dao of Creation, and an absolutely unique and precious item. Even a Primordial Golden Immortal would be astonished and amazed after drinking it.

The essence of the twelfth-grade Creation Green Lotus is extremely rare. It is a offspring personally derived from the twenty-fourth-grade Creation Green Lotus, born with the fortune of creation, and blessed by the Chaos Green Lotus.

Even if you add up all the treasures on Guang Chengzi's body, they still can't compare to even half a twelfth-grade Creation Green Lotus, which shows how precious this thing is.

It could even be said that when the Twelfth Grade Creation Green Lotus was born, whether this first spiritual root of the primordial world was still the Huangzhong Plum Tree was still a question mark, and only by comparing them could we know.

As a result, Guang Chengzi has now used up all the Creation Wine, leaving only a few drops. He doesn't know if he can brew it with the wine sac, but he estimates it's impossible.

Although the wine sac is considered the most precious thing in the world, it can turn anything in the world into wine. In addition, putting wine into it can also improve its quality and taste, and it can even produce corresponding wine out of thin air, making it virtually inexhaustible.

However, the quality of this divine wine, Creation Wine, has probably exceeded the limits of the wine sac's ability to improve its quality and produce more wine. Otherwise, the Goddess Nuwa might not have given it to Guangchengzi.

Even if some of it were to be derived, it would probably be an incomplete and flawed creation wine, and should be called the wine of life.

However, if the Creation Wine can still be produced stably, then if Goddess Nuwa were willing, the essence of the Twelve-Grade Creation Green Lotus would be so great that it would be impossible to obtain even a tiny bit more than once throughout the entire prehistoric world.

The thought of the loss of essence from the twelfth-grade Creation Green Lotus seeds was painful even for someone like Guang Chengzi. Fortunately, it was just essence, not the source, and it could be restored with more nurturing.

However, only if these two divine creation objects were properly combined could so many cultivator bodies be created in one go. Otherwise, if Guang Chengzi had to work on it all by himself, it would be remarkable if he could create even one body in a year.

"Forget it, it's worth it no matter how much we lose for the sake of the future. However, I need to be more careful with the Dao techniques I'm going to pass on next. I can no longer use the Pangu Dao that devours spiritual energy. I should open up a completely new path."

Guang Chengzi's heart stirred, and he immediately knew which magical arts and supernatural powers he should mention.

The prevailing cultivation path today is the Immortal Path personally derived by Hongjun Daozu, namely, True Immortal, Celestial Immortal, Mysterious Immortal, and Immortal Golden Immortal.

Taiyi Golden Immortal, Daluo Golden Immortal, Hunyuan Golden Immortal, Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal, and so on.

But now all the gods of the primordial world stop at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level. Whether it is the Primordial Golden Immortal or the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal, only Hongjun has gone beyond that level.

As for the patriarchs of the three clans who created the world, such as Zulong, Yuanfeng, Shiqilin, and the Four Divine Lords, the paths they cultivated were based on the way of Pangu's creation of the world.

The cultivation realms are quite simple, and there are many different opinions about them. The names used by the three races are different, and even the Luo have their own special names.

Only the Immortal and Great Luo realms were initially recognized by all the gods, namely the Immortal Golden Immortal and Great Luo Golden Immortal in the Immortal Path. As for the Taiyi Golden Immortal, it was created separately by Hongjun.

This is the origin of the cultivation path in the primordial world, first Pangu created the heavens and earth, and then Hongjun became an immortal.

However, Hongjun's path to immortality also follows the Daoist principles of Pangu's creation of the world, and it also focuses on absorbing and releasing spiritual energy, even absorbing more than Pangu's creation of the world.

After all, Pangu did not reach the Taiyi realm when he created the world. To climb directly from the Immortal realm to the Daluo realm would require an immense amount of luck and origin, and success was not guaranteed; the chance of failure was extremely high.

With the Taiyi realm as a buffer, Hongjun's path to immortality not only allowed a large number of immortal golden immortals to achieve the position of Taiyi golden immortal, but also made the deduction of the path to Daluo extremely smooth with the help of the Taiyi numerology.

That's why it's said that Hongjun's path to immortality absorbed more spiritual energy than Pangu's path to creation, because the paths were different.

The many spiritual essences of the Great Dao that Guang Chengzi obtained also changed themselves as the primordial world evolved. It can be said that they existed in the world for a long time and changed with the world.

In other words, if these many great principles do not change with the world, then they will become outdated goods discarded by the times and immediately swept into the trash heap. How could they not change?

It is precisely because these great principles change with the world that they can remain in the world for so long.

Even the Great Dao of Elucidation of Heaven by the Primordial Celestial Venerable is completely different from the Great Dao of Elucidation of Heaven that he obtained when he was born, and they are even completely different.

This is why many cultivators in the prehistoric world are skilled at making changes; for example, the Dragon Gate of the Dragon Clan has been modified countless times.

Guang Chengzi naturally wanted to pass on the Hongjun Immortal Path. After all, with the Hongjun Dao Ancestor still alive, cultivating the Immortal Path would naturally bring Hongjun's blessing, making it both fast and stable. Who would still want to cultivate the Pangu Creation Path?

In other words, the Wu tribe does not have a primordial spirit. Even if their divine soul is integrated into their physical body, they are unable to cultivate profound immortal paths. This is why they are sour grapes, mocking the immortal path for not even existing as long as the ancestral Wu tribe. Why bother cultivating such a shallow path? They should cultivate the Pangu Creation Dao instead.

In fact, they themselves knew that the Immortal Path originated from the Creation Path of Pangu, and that Hongjun himself was the most outstanding person in the Creation Path of Pangu. After all, in ancient times, where was there any cultivation of the Immortal Path? Hongjun also had to cultivate the Creation Path of Pangu.

Although Hongjun, the most outstanding person who created the world from Pangu, summarized the path and refined the immortal path, his life was short, yet countless Great Luo Golden Immortals have appeared, even more than the Great Luo Immortals created by Pangu.

It is clear that the future trend will inevitably lie in the Immortal Path. Unless someone refines the Immortal Path again and creates an even more transcendent path from it, no one can escape the rule of the Immortal Path.

Even in the outer realms of the demons, there are immortal demons, which shows that the emergence of the immortal path is unstoppable, and those who do not cultivate the immortal path will surely be abandoned.

It's not a curse, nor a threat, but a true truth.
