Chapter Twenty-Four: The Path of the Golden Elixir, the Supreme Sainthood
With the Wu Clan's scheme, a new force, the Panwang Palace, emerged within the human race and quickly gained a foothold. Now, no one can ignore the existence of the Panwang Palace. Moreover, due to the Wu Clan's intentional or unintentional dissemination, the human race has gradually gained a deeper understanding of Pangu, the creator god, and as a result, more and more humans are worshipping Pangu.
The appearance of the Panwang Palace also gave the Supreme Being of the Human Race great insights.
Since arriving in the human race, Tai Shang has been experiencing the local customs and traditions of the human race. Over several hundred years, Tai Shang has traveled to all the human tribes and gradually understood his mission. Since the birth of the human race, it has been suffering from the lack of a cultivation system suitable for the human race. If a cultivation system belonging to the human race can be created, it will surely be a great merit.
Therefore, Taishang intensified his efforts to delve deeper into the human race, attempting to gain a deeper understanding of them in order to find a path suitable for them. However, as a result, Taishang was discovered by Xuanchu, who had just returned to the shores of the East Sea.
Although Taishang concealed his cultivation level and identity, who was Xuan Chu? He was most sensitive to Pangu's aura and recognized Taishang's identity with just one glance. Xuan Chu was also very clear about Taishang's purpose in appearing among the human race. As the leader of the first sect in the prehistoric world, Taishang deduced the Golden Core Dao for the human race, enabling them to embark on the path of cultivation, establish the Human Sect, and achieve the position of Heavenly Saint through the merit of establishing the sect.
However, Xuan Chu did not intend to stop these things. As the saying goes, everyone has their own expertise. Xuan Chu himself was not good at the Golden Core Dao, and even if he forced his way to deduce it, he might not be able to compare with Tai Shang. As for Tai Shang's Human Sect occupying the fortune of the human race, it didn't matter. After all, without Tai Shang's inheritance of the Golden Core Dao, it would be difficult for the human race to prosper. On the contrary, the more prosperous the human race was, the stronger Xuan Chu would become, as he occupied a part of the human race's fortune. Therefore, Xuan Chu was happy to see it happen. However, Xuan Chu said that he also wanted a share of the benefits in perfecting the cultivation system for the human race.
Upon returning to the shores of the East Sea, Xuan Chu began to ponder how to pave a path for humanity. The Supreme Golden Elixir Path was primarily meant to guide humanity into the path of immortality, but cultivating immortality required talent. Without talent, even hard work was of little use. And those with such talent were ultimately a minority; the vast majority remained ordinary people. Therefore, Xuan Chu sought to pave a path of cultivation for humanity who could not cultivate the Golden Elixir Path.
On the other hand, after visiting the human race, Taishang gained some insights and opened a cave on Shouyang Mountain on the coast of the East Sea to retreat into seclusion and deduce the way of the Golden Elixir.
Three hundred years later, Taishang finally deduced the Golden Elixir Dao. He immediately sought out the Three Ancestors of Humanity, revealing his identity. Upon learning that Taishang, the chief disciple of Hongjun, a descendant of Pangu, and a fellow disciple of the Holy Mother Nuwa, was willing to teach the Golden Elixir Dao to the human race, the Three Ancestors were naturally very welcoming. After all, cultivation systems and methods had always been what the human race lacked most. Although the Panwang Palace possessed body-refining techniques from the Wu Clan, the requirements were far too stringent. Looking at the entire human race, apart from the Wu Clan, very few could cultivate body-refining techniques; the vast majority of humans could only live ordinary lives. Unfortunately, the Three Ancestors' cultivation levels were too low to deduce cultivation methods for the human race. Now that Taishang was willing to impart cultivation methods to the human race, how could the Three Ancestors refuse?
Soon, at the call of the three ancestors of the human race, three thousand innate human race members gathered on the shore of the East Sea. After all, the number of human race members had exceeded one billion, and it was impossible for them all to gather on the shore of the East Sea. Therefore, only three thousand innate human race members were summoned, and then they spread the Golden Core Dao to the various tribes of the human race.
After all three thousand innate human beings had arrived, the Supreme One began to preach.
"I am a descendant of Pangu, one of the Two Pure Ones of Kunlun Mountain, and the chief disciple of Hongjun, the ancestor of the Xuanmen sect. I have been in seclusion for three hundred years, deducing the Dao of Golden Elixir for the human race. Now that my merits have been fulfilled, I will pass on the Dao of Golden Elixir to you all, so that the human race may embark on the path of cultivation," said Taishang.
"The Supreme Dao Lord is merciful!" said the three thousand innate human race.
Although Taishang was not a saint, he had already severed his two corpses and reached the level of a quasi-saint, a great supernatural being. When he preached, although there were no dazzling tales or golden lotuses sprang from the ground, his every word and action could still affect the phenomena of heaven and earth. Moreover, during the process of preaching, Taishang clearly felt that his understanding of the Primordial Purple Qi was getting deeper and deeper, which made Taishang even more convinced that the human race was the opportunity for him to become a saint.
Five hundred years later, the Supreme Being imparted the entire Golden Core Dao to the human race. The three thousand innate human race members who came to listen to the Dao were already at the Xuanxian realm. Moreover, they had absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth over the years, and their foundation was very profound. However, they had been unable to break through their cultivation level for a long time because they did not have a cultivation method. After cultivating the Golden Core Dao, they all advanced to the Golden Immortal realm at once, thanks to their years of accumulation. As for the three ancestors of the human race, they even broke through to the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal, almost advancing to Daluo Golden Immortal.
"Thank you for the grace of the Supreme Dao Lord in imparting the Dao. May the Supreme Dao Lord attain enlightenment soon and roam freely throughout the world!" The three thousand innate humans knelt down before the Supreme Dao Lord and expressed their gratitude.
Seeing this, Taishang finally had an epiphany and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, my path has been achieved!"
So he flew into the air and swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao: "Heavenly Dao above, I am the chief disciple of the Xuanmen Hongjun Dao Ancestor and one of the Two Pure Ones of Kunlun Mountain. I hereby establish a sect called the Human Sect to educate the human race. I will use the innate supreme treasure, the Taiji Diagram, to suppress the fortune of the Human Sect. I hope the Heavenly Dao will take note. The Human Sect is established, and I am its leader!"
The Supreme Lord's vow instantly shook the entire primordial world. Even Xuan Chu looked at the Supreme Lord in the sky and said, "With the emergence of the Human Sect, the Supreme Lord is finally about to become a saint. I wonder what Tongtian will choose?"
In his previous life, on the day Taishang became a saint, along with Taishang, five saints were created in the primordial world in one day. After Taishang established the Human Religion, Yuanshi, Tongtian, Jieyin, and Zhunti followed suit and established the Chan Religion, the Jie Religion, and the Western Religion. Now, Tongtian is no longer obsessed with becoming a saint, and it is unknown whether he will follow Taishang and Yuanshi in establishing the Jie Religion.
As Taishang swore his oath, thunder rumbled beyond the nine heavens, and a massive golden pillar of merit descended from the sky, directly enveloping Taishang and slowly merging into his body. As the Heavenly Dao merit entered his body, the Creation Merit hidden deep within Taishang's primordial spirit was activated. The Heavenly Dao merit and the Creation Merit shone brightly together, and Taishang's aura suddenly changed. The Primordial Purple Qi within his primordial spirit completely merged with his primordial spirit. Then, a wisp of his primordial spirit flew out from Taishang's body and soared into the nine heavens. The Heavenly Dao Wheel appeared, accepted Taishang's primordial spirit, and then retreated again.
The moment the Supreme Being's primordial spirit was entrusted to the Heavenly Dao, auspicious omens descended from the heavens, golden lotuses sprang from the earth, purple qi traveled ninety thousand miles eastward, rosy clouds filled the sky, celestial music lingered, and other extraordinary phenomena of heaven and earth appeared, such as a golden dragon offering a pearl and a colorful phoenix presenting auspicious signs.
"My name is Taishang. Today I have attained sainthood and am called Taiqing Daode Tianzun. All living beings in the primordial world should congratulate me!" Taishang has become a saint.
"Greetings to the Supreme Lord Taiqing! Congratulations to the Supreme Lord Taiqing on attaining sainthood and becoming a saint. May you walk with the Dao, be immortal and indestructible, and be indestructible through countless eons. May the Supreme Lord Taiqing live a long and prosperous life." All beings in the primordial world bowed to the Supreme Lord.
