Chapter 1
: Reincarnated in the Primordial World, I Became the Eastern King Duke
As the sun rises in the east, the morning glow paints the sea with a golden hue, stretching for thousands of miles.
The clouds seemed to be on fire, changing colors of orange, red, purple, and yellow.
A tall figure, wearing a three-dimensional crown and adorned with nine-colored clouds, bathed in the sunlight and starlight, stood on the long coastline, gazing at the fading lava in the distance, his expression somewhat enigmatic.
"I've become the Eastern King Duke?"
With a murmur to himself, boundless memories flooded his mind like a tide, suddenly reminding him of many unfamiliar things.
Yes, he traveled through time.
It was none other than the legendary Immortal Elder of the Three Islands and Ten Continents, the Great Emperor Donghua, also known as: Mu Gong, Yuan Yang Fu, and Donghua Zifu Shaoyang Emperor.
Donghua was momentarily at a loss as to whether to be happy or sad.
The good news is that this Donghua Emperor has an extremely important background. In the original primordial mythology, he was a primordial deity who was born from the pure essence of the Great Dao in the vastness of the universe, using the true essence of Donghua.
It represents the Lesser Yang among the Four Symbols, and in terms of its noble origins, it is definitely among the top in the primordial world.
Tragically, based on his understanding of the primordial world, the final fate of this Donghua Emperor did not seem to be very pleasant.
Looking back on his life—
When he preached at Zixiao Palace, he was personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor as the head of all immortals in the primordial world and in charge of the list of male immortals. It can be said that he was at the peak from the very beginning.
Then, on the overseas Purple Mansion Continent, which is the Fanghu Island where he stands, he established the Celestial Court, intending to become the Great Celestial Venerable of the Three Realms who holds the supreme power of the Primordial Heavenly Emperor, and for a time he was unparalleled in his fame.
However, joy turned to sorrow, and who could have imagined that not long after, he would be killed by Di Jun and Tai Yi in the East Sea.
After countless reincarnations, Lü Dongbin, who eventually became one of the Eight Immortals under Laozi, was completely marginalized.
"..."
Thinking of this, Donghua's feelings became even more complicated.
Having finally caught up with the wave of time travel and inherited the destiny of the Eastern King Duke, am I destined to die and perish again?
God is really going to kill him...
"Gou Dao?"
Gently touching his forehead, the thought of following one's heart naturally surfaced in his mind; after all, those online novels he read in his previous life weren't for nothing.
However, he immediately suppressed the thought as soon as it arose.
As the saying goes: "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."
Donghua knows his own situation best. He possesses the Qingyang Yuanqi, governs Yanghe, and is also a Great Emperor. Therefore, he can be said to be a natural nemesis of Dijun and Taiyi.
Unless he is willing to cut off his own flesh and hand over the Shaoyang essence within his body, Gou Dao is basically committing slow suicide.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Donghua had no way out.
Fight or die!
But even Donghua, a transmigrator, felt a headache just thinking about those two on the Sun Star.
There was no way around it. Although they were both innate saints, Di Jun's strength was by no means weaker than his. Not to mention Taiyi, who held the innate treasure Chaos Bell and was regarded by many as the number one person below the saint.
Faced with two such imposing brothers, it's hard to imagine anyone remaining calm.
In the primordial world, the strong prey on the weak.
The primitive law of the jungle will only be played out more cruelly here, and it's not easy to defy fate.
For Donghua, perhaps the only hope is to cultivate into a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal as soon as possible. However, even so, how could the supreme Hunyuan Dao Fruit be so easily obtained?
Don't you see, Di Jun, Tai Yi, Ming He, and their ilk, all racked their brains to prove their Dao, but in the end...
"What a rip-off..."
Upon realizing this, Donghua couldn't help but feel deep concern about his future.
However, reality is what it is, and even wallowing in self-pity will be of no use. So, after suppressing the urge to give the heavens the middle finger, Donghua finally calmed down and began to take stock of his assets.
As a supreme innate deity born with the Dao, and also the embodiment of Lesser Yang among the Four Symbols of Heaven and Earth.
Donghua's innate conditions are actually not bad. He has two companion spiritual treasures, namely a bell and a sword.
The bell is Jingyang Bell.
The bell is inscribed with the Great Dao's maxims, and surrounded by blue-patterned talismans.
It is a superior innate spiritual treasure born from the purple light of the first sunrise of the world, nurtured and created by the Great Dao. It contains thirty-six restrictions, combining offense and defense.
The sword is the Qingyang Sword.
The primordial energy of Qingyang, preceding all things, inherits the Great Dao and is born from the sword.
It is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure with forty-eight restrictions, containing two innate laws: the Lesser Yang Dao and the Wood Dao. It divides Yin and Yang, governs all things, and is naturally compatible with Donghua.
Although neither of these two magical treasures are among the most precious innate treasures, they are still among the top-tier treasures in the prehistoric world.
Donghua was quite satisfied.
It should be noted that although there are not many innate deities in the primordial world, not every one of them has a companion creature. For example, the Kunpeng of the North Sea is a notoriously poor creature.
Every time they get into a fight, they have to bring out their own hideouts, which is quite touching.
Having discussed the magic weapon, let's now talk about Donghua's cultivation level.
Every innate deity is a favorite of heaven and earth, let alone a top-tier innate god like him. Therefore, Donghua's first incarnation was at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
What is the Great Luo?
"大" means vast, and vastness means immeasurable; "罗" means net, and net means all-encompassing.
The Great Luo is boundless, encompassing all existence.
It is equivalent to the world body, capable of transforming into countless forms in a single thought, merging the past and the future, and existing eternally in all time and space, which cannot be described in a few words.
Donghua currently stands at the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
"Let's first clarify our own fundamental principles!"
Since time travel had become an unchangeable fact, Donghua stopped thinking about it and immediately sat down cross-legged, preparing to circulate his cultivation according to the innate inheritance in his mind.
No matter what the future holds, it's always right to prioritize spiritual cultivation.
Ultimately, strength is the most important thing.
In a short while.
The Great Luo Dharma Power within the body flows like a vast ocean, circulating throughout the body via the Purple Mansion and connecting all the meridians of the limbs.
Three flowers gather at the top, and five energies converge at the origin.
A cloud of auspiciousness rose and swirled above, like smoke and mist, shrouded in mystery, and spontaneously incorporated the two innate spiritual treasures, Jingyang Bell and Qingyang Sword, into it.
The external channels surge, based on Lesser Yang, evolving into Earth, Water, Wind, Fire, Mountains, Rivers, Thunder, and Lakes.
at the same time.
A flash of light appeared in Donghua's hand, revealing a magnificent and exquisite jade disc, somewhat incomplete, yet seemingly flowing with boundless Daoist immortal charm.
A faint purple glow shimmered between his fingers.
A subtle, unknowable Daoist aura rippled within and around him.
In that hazy, dreamlike state, it seemed as if the sounds of the Great Dao were resounding from the heavens, quietly recounting the various mysteries and wonders that existed in the primordial universe.
It was none other than the Jade Disc of Creation!
