The world was originally a chaotic world. Chaos was eternal. There was no heaven and earth, no living beings, no good or evil, no beauty or ugliness, no grudges, no beginning and no end. It was perfection.
However, one day, a great god of Pangu created the world and finally transformed into all things with his body. Thus, a world appeared in the endless chaos, the Untainted Land.
The primeval world was the peak of the Immortal Cultivation civilization and the holy land of all cultivators.
In Untainted Land, after countless years of development, there was a cultivator who established the Heavenly Court with great perseverance, great merit, and great luck. He named himself the Heavenly Emperor and ruled Untainted Land. Since then, Untainted Land became more and more prosperous.
However, there were positive and negative aspects in Taiji Yin and Yang.
In the Wilderness, other than the Heavenly Emperor, there was another existence that was even more powerful. It was called the Heavenly Dao!
The Heavenly Dao was the world consciousness that controlled the laws of heaven and earth, operated the laws of heaven and earth, and evolved a world. It was the manifestation of the boundless power of the Great Dao.
The Great Dao was merciless, but the Heavenly Dao was intentional!
Originally, the Way of Heaven, which was the manifestation of the power of the Great Way, should be the same as the Great Way. It had no emotions at all and was only an existence that maintained the normal operation of the world. However, for some reason, the Way of Heaven in Untainted Land was completely different. It not only gave birth to its own consciousness, but also had ambition. It wanted to completely occupy the world left by Pangu and use it as a bridge to get closer to itself. Therefore, the Heavenly Court and the Celestial Emperor, who controlled Untainted Land, became its biggest enemies. As long as it was an enemy, they had to think of a way to eliminate it!
On the primeval continent, there were tall mountains and vast seas. Countless cultivators transformed into streaks of rainbows in the void and flew into the distance. Magnificent cities stood on the horizon, and ancient palaces filled them. The sounds of fighting, shouting, and hissing filled the air. It was really a great world!
"Boom..."
Suddenly, there was a loud rumble in the sky. A million feet of multicolored light burst out, and a thousand strands of auspicious qi appeared. An extremely vast pressure filled the void.
"Ling!"
An earth-shaking dragon cry resounded through the sky. A tall man in a purple-gold imperial robe suddenly appeared in the void. His aura was noble and proud, and his mana was obscure and mysterious.。。。。。
"Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, only I rule!"
When they saw that figure, an extremely domineering voice sounded from the bottom of the hearts of many cultivators in Untainted Land, causing countless creatures and cultivators to kneel down and kowtow."Greetings, Your Majesty Heavenly Emperor. Heavenly Emperor, you will enjoy eternal happiness and live as long as the heavens!”
Suddenly, countless figures appeared behind the man known as the Celestial Thearch in the void. There were proud emperors, dignified kings, mighty divine generals, and endless but orderly divine soldiers!
Each figure had a powerful aura, especially the nine emperors closest to the Celestial Emperor. Their auras were like the sun, and their scorching light seemed to illuminate the entire Primordial World.
"Boom!"
Just as countless living beings in Untainted Land were wondering why the Heavenly Court had suddenly come out in full force, a sudden clap of thunder sounded in the void, frightening all living beings.
Dark clouds covered the sky, and purple lightning snakes flashed within. The vast pressure of the Heavenly Dao descended. Thousands of lightning bolts surged, and endless earth, fire, wind, water, and lightning bolts struck down one after another. The wind tore through the void, the earth veins rose, the sky was flooded, and the fire was flowing. This was a terrifying scene, as if it was splitting the world apart, but at this moment, it seemed to be cheering for someone's arrival.
Countless dark clouds gathered in front of the people from Heavenly Court. Looking down, the entire sky seemed to be divided into two halves, one side was dark and the other was bright!
"Rip!"
After the dark clouds covered half of the sky of Untainted Land, a huge, oval black hole suddenly appeared in the endless dark clouds, earth fire, water, and thunderbolts. The pitch-black hole was still eye-catching even in the endless dark clouds, earth fire, water, and thunderbolts. From afar, it looked like an eye, faintly revealing a red light.
"Da da da-"
Footsteps suddenly sounded from the pitch-black hole. After a while, tens of thousands of figures slowly walked out. The leader was an old man with cold eyes and an expressionless face. He was holding a floating dust and wearing a black Daoist robe. Behind him were five cultivators with different auras and expressions.
"Has it finally come to this?”Seeing the familiar figures walking out of the black hole, the man called the Heavenly Emperor said with a slight smile.
"It's been so long. When did it start?”
The man called the Celestial Thearch looked ahead as if he was lost in his memories.

Yichen was an ordinary college student in the 21st century. It was just summer vacation and Yichen was traveling by train. He had just arrived at the first stop, Nishikyo. Yichen was exhausted after getting off the train and cursed,"I can't sleep peacefully on the train. It makes my muscles weak and my back sore.”
Yichen followed the arrow at the exit and followed the flow of people. He dragged his luggage slowly and suddenly, an old man dressed like a monk walked up to Yichen and said,""Patron, I see that you have amazing bones, a ruddy complexion, and a full forehead. You're really a rare talent of the new century.”
Yi Chen rolled his eyes." The eminent monk really has a pair of discerning eyes. To be able to discover a talent like me in the vast sea of people, but..."
"But what?" the old monk said.
Yichen glanced at the old monk and said as he walked forward,""If you want to beg for alms, there's no way. If you take me in as your disciple, I'm only in my second year of university, so I can't be a monk. Even if I graduate, I only have a college degree, so I can't be a monk.”
The old monk continued to follow me and said,"Benefactor, you've misunderstood. I'm not asking for alms, nor am I taking you in as a disciple. I have other matters to attend to.”
Yichen turned to look at the old monk and asked,""Important matter? We don't know each other. What important matter can there be?”
Yichen emphasized the word "important".
"Although we don't know each other, we are fated to meet," the old monk hurriedly said.”
"What fate can there be between you and me? I don't believe in Buddhism.”Yichen looked at the old monk as if he was looking at an idiot.
The old monk continued,"It's not fate with me, but fate with these books."”
As he spoke, the old monk took out a few books from his loose clothes and gave them to Yichen.
"Books? What book is fated with me? Don't tell me he's a salesman?" Yichen took the book and said.
Yichen took it and saw that it was actually a thread-bound book. There were four books, and they were very thin. There were some gaps at the edges of the books, and the pages were a little yellow. They looked a little old.
Yichen looked at the covers one by one. He wouldn't know if he didn't look at them, but he was shocked when he saw them.
"Old monk, are you kidding me? Even if you're out to sell books, you'll still get a few famous books. Do you think I'm stupid?”Yichen looked at the old monk and said angrily.
What book made our Yichen so angry?
The four books were the Tao Te Ching, the Nine Yin Scripture, the Nine Yang Scripture, and the Art of Longevity. The four books that the old monk showed Yichen were the normal Tao Te Ching, but the other three were all martial arts manuals from novels.
Yichen thought to himself," I usually like to read martial arts novels, but selling martial arts secret manuals at the train station is challenging my intelligence. I'm still a university student."
The old monk looked at Yichen's angry expression and explained,""Benefactor, don't be angry. Why don't you open it first?”
Yi Chen did as the old monk said, half-believing. He opened the Tao Te Ching and found that it was all traditional Chinese characters. The characters were very small. This page was even smaller than 160 pages, and it was densely packed with at least hundreds of words.
The old monk saw Yichen open it and continued to explain,""These four books are indeed fated with you. As for what fate is, you will know very soon. Perhaps you have some doubts. You may not be able to verify the authenticity of the other three books, but as for this Tao Te Ching, you should know the contents.”
Yi Chen was a little suspicious. He opened the Tao Te Ching and looked at its contents. He found that it did not seem fake. Although Yi Chen could not memorize the entire Tao Te Ching, he knew what Dao could be taught and what was not.
Yichen looked at the Tao Te Ching in his hand. He was a little tempted. Yichen was a martial arts fan and liked to play with swords since he was young. Although he did not know if the contents of these books were real or fake, the cover and the traditional Chinese characters were very valuable to show off.
If he didn't call wrongly, he was just trying to act cool. He didn't expect Yichen's first thought to be to act cool.
Yi Chen asked the old monk,""How much is this book? I won't buy it if it's expensive.”
The old monk replied," I didn't want to take money at first, but there's no free lunch in this world. If I give it to you like this, it won't be good for you. After all, it would be like you owe me karma."”
Yi Chen rolled his eyes and said,"Just tell me how much it is."”
"Nine is the limit of the number, and ten is the perfect number. Then one book is ten yuan, and today's matter is considered to have ended successfully.”the old monk said.
"What? This lousy book costs ten yuan a book. This book doesn't even have ten pages, right?”
"Benefactor…"
"Alright, ten yuan it is. Here, I'm leaving.”Yichen interrupted the old monk and took out forty yuan from his pocket. He took the four books and walked out of the station with his luggage.
The old monk looked at Yichen's back and revealed a mysterious smile. He muttered,""Perhaps we will never see each other again.”
