Chapter 261

The martial arts he created, although he deliberately left out the path forward,

truly solidified the foundation of the human race.

As long as there is an endless stream of martial artists, the number of those who achieve great success will definitely not be small.

More and more will enter the path of immortal cultivation by entering the Dao through martial arts.

This kind of feedback to the human race indeed makes the foundation of the human race increasingly robust.

But he also deeply understands the nature of the human race.

They are prone to internal strife.

Never mind the entire environment;

even on a mere ordinary mountain range, several sects and forces would be at each other's throats.

Sometimes, they would even fight to the death.

All for the sake of competing for control of the mountain range.

And this is still in mountain ranges with thin spiritual energy.

If they encounter those with rich spiritual energy, the scale of the battle is even more terrifying.

The slaughter would be countless times more tragic.

The struggle for Daoist traditions has already become incredibly bloody.

These were supposed to happen only after the Investiture of the Gods.

But because of Hongxuan, it has rapidly accelerated.

Signs of this were already visible when the Xia Dynasty was first established.

It is hard to say if it is good or bad.

Will it affect the future Investiture of the Gods?

It seems he will have to spend more time observing carefully in the future.

Of course.

Because martial arts were created by Hongxuan, then passed to Shennong, and carried forward by Shennong,

martial arts have been completely strengthened at the grassroots level of the Primordial World.

The luck Hongxuan has obtained over these years is also beyond imagination.

Presumably, Shennong has not received little either.

As of now, it might not count for much.

But in the future, Shennong will definitely be one of the Three Sovereigns whose strength cannot be underestimated.

Regarding this, Hongxuan is indeed happy to see it.

As for why, for so many years, despite knowing that martial arts could be a threat, those traditions have not suppressed martial arts!

Even the three sects have turned a blind eye, and there is even a hint of them promoting it.

A large reason is that although martial arts have the function of increasing lifespan, they cannot achieve longevity.

Only after truly achieving great success and successfully entering the Dao through martial arts,

and stepping onto the path of immortal cultivation, can one be considered to have the qualifications for longevity.

On this point alone, martial arts absolutely do not have the qualifications to threaten the Immortal Dao.

On the contrary, because of the existence of martial arts, they can provide a constant stream of fresh blood for the Immortal Dao.

In view of this, how could the Immortal Dao possibly suppress martial arts!

And back then, when Hongxuan created martial arts, he deliberately did not add a longevity function for this very purpose.

After all, Hongxuan is not yet a Saint, and rashly threatening the Immortal Dao tradition would be very disadvantageous to him.

For the sake of a more distant future, what does it matter to temporarily give up some losses?

Moreover, Hongxuan does not place too much importance on his own Daoist tradition.

He is determined to achieve the true eternal and immortal Great Dao.

How could he waste his energy on passing down a Daoist tradition?

If he really wants to pass down a tradition, he can just let his disciples do it for him.

Currently, Hongxuan has taken in three disciples.

Needless to say, Ao Ling'er; although her karmic debt has been entirely removed, she will definitely achieve success in her cultivation in the future.

However, due to her personality, she can handle some small matters.

But as for passing down a Daoist tradition, it's better to forget it.

As for the second disciple, Shennong, that goes without saying.

As the Earth Sovereign of the human race, he is destined to spend all his energy on the human race.

Currently, it is the third disciple, Cangjie, who is his most valued target.

He needs to be cultivated further.

For this third disciple, Cangjie, Hongxuan has spent the least amount of time teaching and the least amount of energy.

Yet he is also the one who makes Hongxuan the most satisfied.

Many years ago, he had already come to Mount Wuyi according to Hongxuan's instructions.

And began further cultivation.

Although Hongxuan himself was not there,

the Scripture Pavilion left at Mount Wuyi was enough for him to make progress.

After so many years, he had already achieved the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

His cultivation base is not inferior to Ao Ling'er's at all.

Ao Ling'er has been staying in the Netherworld, accompanying the Three Xiao sisters, and hasn't returned to Mount Wuyi many times at all.

Naturally, Cangjie took charge of the affairs of Mount Wuyi.

As Primordial Daoist traditions vied to blossom,

there were many sects and forces in every famous mountain and river.

Mount Wuyi was naturally no exception.

Cangjie reacted quickly and acted decisively.

He passed down Hongxuan's tradition at Mount Wuyi at the very first opportunity.

He even recruited many disciples.

His achievements were extraordinary.

It can be considered that he didn't lose face for Hongxuan.

Hongxuan did not return to Mount Wuyi immediately, but returned directly to the Eternal Market.

At the same time, he immediately met with Jin Fu Daoist.

"Congratulations, Daoist Brother, on having another great harvest!"

As soon as they met, before Hongxuan could speak, Jin Fu Daoist was the first to offer congratulations.

Hongxuan became even more certain of his perception in his heart.

"Oh? Daoist friend, I haven't broken through my realm in over five million years; what is there to congratulate?"

"Haha, Daoist Brother is joking. Daoist Brother is already a Quasi-Saint; let alone five million years, even if there were no improvement at all for fifty million years, it would be the most normal thing!"

"Back then, I had some Daoist friends who were early-stage Quasi-Saints, but for hundreds of millions of years until the Great Tribulation descended and they died, there was still no progress at all."

"This situation is perfectly normal."

"Daoist Brother Hongxuan has extraordinary talent and has indeed made rapid progress in the past, but after achieving the Quasi-Saint realm, you also need to adapt to this state of being unable to break through your realm for a long time."

"Look at me; after so many years, am I not still an early-stage Quasi-Saint, without the slightest improvement!"
