Chapter 38: My Laozi does not establish the Human Sect, but establishes Daoism
While shocked by the strength possessed by the God Race, they were also curious about what exactly had happened between the Human Race, the God Race, and Taishang Laozi.
"Taishang Laozi, there is no need for this seat to say more, right? Hand over the Princess!" Huangtian Laozu said coldly.
"Heh, Pangu's Three Pure Ones? And the Mysterious Gate Eldest Disciple?" Samu sneered with a grin.
"Capturing our Divine Court Princess, is this the kind of conduct your Mysterious Gate engages in?" Those watching from the shadows became even more curious.
They speculated one after another: could Taishang Laozi have really captured the Princess of the God Race's Divine Court?
Surely not?
Given Laozi's character, would he really do such a sneaky, underhanded thing?
The myriad races and various Great Supernatural Beings thought to themselves.
"Heh, very well!" Taishang Laozi sneered, swept a cold, indifferent gaze over Cangtian and the others, and finally fixed his eyes on Cangtian Laozu.
"This poor Daoist did not expect you of the God Race to have such a foundation. It seems the myriad races of the Primordial World have underestimated you, and the Witch and Demon Clans have also underestimated you. I just don't know what your intention is in hiding until now?"
The Witch and Demon Clans, who had been watching this place all along, also looked at the God Race with grave expressions.
Indeed!
If one speaks of lower-level combat power and numbers, the Witch and Demon Clans indeed hold the advantage.
But if one speaks of peak combat power.
Then the God Race alone possesses enough peak combat power to crush the Witch and Demon Clans combined.
And this is only the strength exposed on the surface; how many forces remain unexposed in the shadows?
Moreover, judging by what the God Race said, they came here to find the Divine Court Princess; does that mean there is a God Court Lord above them?
And to be able to rely on one's own power to suppress so many Quasi-Saints into serving them.
Then their strength is beyond doubt.
Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal!
This was what they all thought of.
Not to mention those who already knew of the existence of the God Court Lord, Shengling Huang, others such as Zhenyuanzi, Minghe Laozu, Jieyin and Zhunti, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
After guessing this result, they were all astonished by the God Race's foundation, and then felt wary of the God Race.
It was indeed as Taishang Laozi said.
What exactly is the intention behind the foundation this God Race has hidden until now?
Could it be that they want to do as the three Dragon and Phoenix clans did and dominate the Primordial World?
"Hmph! It really is you! This seat advises you to release the Princess; if not, the fury of our Divine Court is not something you can withstand!"
If not, the fury of our Divine Court is not something you can withstand!
After Cangtian Laozu finished speaking, the gods all took a step forward in unison, revealing their Top-Grade Divine Artifacts and condensing Great Rice Laws in their hands.
However, facing these dozens of gods of equal standing, Laozi actually laughed.
It was just that his smile was filled with coldness.
Just as the gods and the various Great Supernatural Beings were wondering why Taishang Laozi was laughing, Taishang Laozi slowly recalled the efforts of this period, which he had not expected would come to nothing in an instant on this day.
He did not know how to describe the feeling at this moment.
Regret?
Perhaps he should not have been so impulsive.
But he truly had not expected that among those few girls, there was indeed one related to that God Court Lord.
Originally, he thought that the girl was merely a disciple or attendant of that God Court Lord.
Who would have thought that the girl's identity was actually a descendant of that God Court Lord!
This could not help but shatter his impression that Great Supernatural Beings would not want to produce descendants.
Because.
As a Great Supernatural Being, producing a descendant is a division of one's own origin, which has a great impact on one's own potential.
Therefore, in everyone's understanding.
No one would be truly foolish enough to have the idea of dividing their own origin.
However, he was wrong.
This God Court Lord does not play by the rules!
You say, a dignified Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal, what is there not to do, yet he had to produce a descendant!
Think of how he had finally managed to find a way from the Human Race to repair his own foundation with Human Luck after proving the Rice, thereby re-proving the Three Corpses Rice Proving Method.
Yes.
If he had wanted to use Rice Proving by Merit, he would have long since established a Great Sect to prove the Rice.
But having stayed among the Human Race for so long, it gave him the idea of using Human Luck to repair the insufficient foundation from when he proved the Rice, thereby allowing him to re-prove the Three Corpses Rice Proving Method.
For this, he had even specifically gone into seclusion for a period of time to create a Golden Elixir Great Rice Law tailored specifically for the Human Race.
This kind of Golden Elixir Great Rice could both make the Human Race grateful to him after practicing it, and restrict the Human Race so they would not develop to the point of escaping his grasp.
Now it was all for nothing; the loss of Qi Luck meant his chance to re-prove the Three Corpses Rice Proving Method had vanished!
Thinking of this, he ignored the many Supreme Gods of the God Race who were glaring at him.
He was seen slowly raising his head to look at the sky, his whole body beginning to emit a powerful aura, and infinite pressure began to descend upon the entire Primordial World.
At the same time, the entire Primordial World began to be filled with golden clouds and purple mist.
Seeing this, Cangtian Laozu and the other gods all quickly retreated over a hundred miles in unison.
Afterward, they looked at Taishang Laozi, who was still rising into the air, with a look of caution and fear.
Then, he said in a loud voice.
"This poor Daoist is Pangu's Three Pure Ones, Mysterious Gate Eldest Disciple, named Taiqing, saying: Taishang Laozi, today I establish a sect, called: Daoism!"
To preach the Rice, impart knowledge, resolve doubts, enlighten all living beings, guide people toward goodness, ferry all beings toward the Rice, and suppress the Qi Luck of Daoism with the Innate Supreme Treasure Taiji Diagram and the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda!
"Daoism, established!"
Taishang Laozi... no, it should be Tai Qing Moral Heavenly Venerable.
As soon as his voice fell, the Heavenly Rice sensed it, pulling upon the Primordial Violet Qi within the primordial spirit of Laozi in the darkness, descending the Saint Fruit Position, and guiding the true spirit of Laozi to descend all the way into the Benyuan Kongjian of the Heavenly Rice.
And at this moment.
The horizon also began to have a massive amount of golden clouds of merit permeate and gather; the quantity was extremely vast, and compared to the merit at the time of Nuwa's Proof of Rice, it was like an adult to a child.
Of course, this does not mean that the merit of Nuwa creating humans was less than that of Laozi.
It is because, besides the merit of establishing a Great Sect, Laozi also possessed extremely vast Opening Heaven Merit.
This is the merit unique to him, the Three Pure Ones of Pangu, and it is also the gratitude of the Great Rice and the Heavenly Rice toward the Great God Pangu.
Since the birth of the Three Pure Ones of Pangu, these Opening Heaven Merits had been stored deep within the primordial spirits of the Three Pure Ones.
At this time, when Laozi established a Great Sect to achieve Proof of Rice, it was precisely triggered by the Heavenly Rice and gathered together with the merit of establishing the Great Sect, which is why there was such vast merit.
As the merit gathered and fell into the primordial spirit of Taishang Laozi, boundless Rice rhyme began to permeate, and with the help of the Rice rhyme and the Saint Fruit Position, Taishang Laozi boomed and achieved Proof of Rice to become a Saint!
At this time, the violet Qi and auspicious clouds of the Primordial World also instantly flourished.
Subsequently, golden light flashed around Laozi, and three figures walked out from within.
"Greetings, fellow Daoist!"
After the three people bowed to Laozi, they all leaped into the primordial spirit of Laozi together.
These three people were precisely the Good, Evil, and Obsession Three Corpses incarnations of Taishang Laozi.
Due to insufficient foundation, his Three Corpses could not be unified, which forced him to only achieve Proof of Rice to become a Saint through merit.
The only thing that made Laozi feel satisfied was.
Under the merit of establishing the Great Sect and the Opening Heaven Merit of Pangu's legacy, he not only succeeded in Proof of Rice but also raised his Saint realm to the Saint Third Layer.
Nuwa becoming a Saint by creating humans was merely at the Saint Second Layer.
At this time, looking at the Human Race kneeling below, the God Race on guard, and the Great Supernatural Beings who had revealed their forms and were bowing all around.
Laozi closed his eyes and sighed inwardly, not knowing what kind of feeling was in his heart.
There was joy and bitterness, sweet and sour, all kinds of Earthly Realm emotions surging forth.
