Primordial Era: Even the Three Pure Ones have to obediently call me Second Uncle

Chapter 266 27 Saints

Shen Ni looked at the group of people joking around and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Alright, stop fooling around, we need to go see the Daoist Master!"

Upon hearing this, Taotie and Taowu released Qiongqi: "Consider yourself lucky, kid. If Daozun and my elder brother hadn't been here, we would have definitely given you a hard time!"

Upon hearing this, Qiongqi's face darkened.

He glared fiercely at Taotie and Taowu.

You two, are you never going to stop?

Do they really think they're something special?!

Let's see when we get back, whether it's Qiongqi who's more handsome, or the two of you!

With this in mind, Qiongqi immediately followed in Shenni's footsteps.

Before long, the group arrived in front of Hong Yuan.

Yang Mei and the others had already returned to this place and were sitting side by side with Hong Yuan.

Even Rahu no longer stands beneath the twelfth-grade world-destroying black lotus.

Instead, like everyone else, they all sat on the Black Lotus of Annihilation.

As for the three dragons, phoenixes, and qilin, their positions were slightly lower than the others.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Hong Yuan stopped talking nonsense.

"As you all know, I intend to preach once more in the primordial world!"

"Uh-huh"

Whether it was the group of ancestors, or the dragon, phoenix, and ferocious beasts, all were listening to what Hong Yuan said.

They all stared longingly at Hong Yuan.

He was afraid that Hong Yuan wouldn't give him a chance.

Seeing that everyone looked like they were waiting for him to feed them, Hong Yuan shook his head helplessly and then added, "This time, it's not just about preaching; I also intend to distribute the saintly positions in the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man. What do you all think about how these positions should be allocated?!"

Upon hearing Hong Yuan's words, all the elders' eyes lit up.

Only the three clans of dragon, phoenix, and qilin, along with Shenni and the kings of ferocious beasts such as Qiongqi, were somewhat baffled.

Yuan Feng pondered for a moment, then asked softly.

"May I ask the Venerable One, what is the attainment of a sage?!"

“This Saintly position is similar to the Four Directions Guardian Array positions that you four obtained. It is a part of the rules that were differentiated from the three paths of Heaven, Earth and Man in the Primordial World. Those who merge with this position must be in harmony with Heaven and Earth and bring blessings to the Primordial World. Only those with great merit, great fortune and great virtue can achieve this!” Hong Yuan said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Feng and the others finally understood why Yang Mei and the others had reacted this way.

Given the current resources of the primordial world, the saintly Dao fruits that would emerge from it would likely be at least at the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal.

No wonder Yang Mei and the others were so excited.

It's probably for the sake of their disciples.

But thinking of this, Yuan Feng and the others fell into deep thought again.

But these people are different from Yang Mei and the others.

To put it bluntly, they are still in the process of repaying their karmic debts, which may be quite difficult for them.

Moreover, their clan doesn't have any outstanding offspring!

But Qiongqi didn't think that far ahead. He scratched his head and mumbled, "Um, Daoist Master, could I have one? I've been working really hard all these years! I've been transforming chaotic energy really fast!"

But as soon as Qiongqi finished speaking, Shenni turned around and kicked Qiongqi out of the main hall.

After doing all this, Shen Ni looked at Dao Zun with some apology.

"I hope the Daoist Master will forgive me; Qiongqi isn't quite right in the head!"

Hong Yuan smiled and shook his head slightly: "It's alright. I'm not such a petty person. Besides, I've always seen Qiongqi's work attitude over the years, and he has indeed done a good job."

But Hong Yuan's words caused Taotie and Taowu to instinctively shrink their necks.

I couldn't help but feel a little scared.

The Daoist Master praised Qiongqi, but not the other two.

Doesn't that mean they haven't done a very good job all these years?!

Upon hearing this, Shen Ni was delighted that Qiongqi had received praise from the Daoist Master, but he also glared fiercely at Taotie and the other two.

You're trying to slack off, aren't you? Just wait and see what I'll do to you.

The three clans of dragon, phoenix, and qilin frowned slightly after hearing what Hong Yuan said.

They began to wonder if their own clansmen had been slacking off all these years.

Why don't we see the Daoist Master praising them?

At this moment, Wu Xing looked at Hong Yuan and asked with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Hong Yuan, what you mentioned last time was the twelve Saintly positions, right? I have a disciple named Hong Yun, who was born with merit and good fortune to attain the Dao. I believe he should be able to attain the position of a Heavenly Saint! I wonder if my disciple has this opportunity?"

Hong Yuan smiled and shook his head: "It's not twelve, but twenty-seven! I only took fifteen. As for the rest, you can give me a suggestion, so I can give you a sense of participation!"

Everyone present was stunned upon hearing this.

For a moment, the scene fell into a deathly silence.

No one expected that there would be so many people holding the title of saint.

They originally thought that twelve saints were already outrageous enough, but they never expected that there would be a total of twenty-seven.

Although Hongyuan has taken fifteen, there are still twelve left, aren't there?

Moreover, even if Hong Yuan didn't give them a single one, there was nothing they could do!

After all, in this primordial world, it is Fellow Daoist Hongyuan who calls the shots!

At this moment, Qiankun couldn't help but exclaim, "I have two disciples, one named Fuxi and the other named Nuwa, both of whom are blessed with great fortune. Nuwa, in particular, carries the legacy of Fellow Daoist Creation. With the blessings of my two disciples, they are worthy of being called two saints!"

“My younger brother Zhen Yuanzi is accompanied by the Earth Book, and is the essence of the Earth element. He should have a place among the Sages of the Earthly Way!”

Yang Mei listened as her old friends recounted the fortunes and backgrounds of their disciples.

He immediately frowned.

Have I been a little lax in my duties while overseeing the underworld all these years? I should take on a disciple!

Otherwise, with all his old friends having disciples, he would seem out of place as a lone wolf.

I wonder if it's too late to start taking on apprentices now?

Meanwhile, Luo Hou was also pondering what capable figures his demon clan had.

After thinking for a long time, Luo Hou blurted out: "Our clan has two great protectors, one is Mo Luo and the other is Mo Tian. Both are late-stage Hunyuan Golden Immortals. Over the years, they have worked diligently and should have two Saintly positions!"

Upon hearing this, everyone rolled their eyes: "Your two protectors are both at the late stage of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm, what are they doing getting involved?!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Hou narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "So what if I'm a Primordial Golden Immortal? Why can't I attain the status of a Saint? If my two protectors are stronger, they can better benefit the Primordial World! Anyone who disagrees, stand up and speak!"

As soon as Luo Hou finished speaking, everyone present, except for Hong Yuan, stood up without saying a word.

Looking at the crowd who had stood up, Luo Hou couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

But he still stubbornly said with a dark face, "What do you all think my Demon Realm is? Is it a place where you can run wild? Look, even Hong Yuan didn't stand up, but you, as guests, are already taking advantage of my kindness?!"

“Hong Yuan, don’t you think so?” Luo Hou looked at Hong Yuan.

Upon hearing this, Hong Yuan merely smiled slightly and said unhurriedly, "How about you two have another match?!"

At this point, Hong Yuan paused, "However, Luo Hou's two great protectors did not have this opportunity!"

Upon hearing this, Rahu immediately lost his confidence.

I'm all alone, so I don't dare to agree to take on everyone by myself.

Wouldn't that get him beaten to death?!

He immediately backed down.

Seeing that Luo Hou had backed down, the others slowly sat down again.

At this moment, Luo Hou was still pondering in his heart who else in his demon clan could have the opportunity to become a saint.

After thinking for a long time, I really couldn't think of anyone else in my demon clan who could do that.

But suddenly, he remembered that Moro wouldn't do; he still had two subordinates.

Who says he doesn't like those two people's personalities?

However, in terms of merit and foundation, he is probably not much inferior to other disciples.

Moreover, when Hong Yuan repaired the Four Directions Guardian Array, they contributed two top-grade innate spiritual roots!

Thinking of this, Rahu spoke again: "Under my Dharma Protector, I have two disciples who were born after the Dragon-Han Calamity. One is Jieyin, and the other is Zhunti. They are currently leading my demon race to attack the Demon Court in order to complete the Great Calamity of the Heart Demon. I wonder if these two are suitable?"

(Regarding the attainment of sainthood, do any of you have recommendations?!)
