Stepping on the long bridge made of rainbow light, Yang Jian arrived at the side of the pavilion and bowed to two of the Three Emperors before walking into the pavilion.
He could not sit. It was not just because of the difference in seniority. The two of them were ultimately sages who had contributed greatly to the human race.
Yang Jian thought that the world he had come to might be related to the human race of the Primordial World. No matter what, it was more appropriate for him to greet them as juniors.
It was all thanks to Shennong's "plea" for him that he could obtain the Mountain-Splitting Axe. Yang Jian was naturally grateful.
He was currently insignificant and his strength was limited. If the Fire Cloud Cave had any requests for him in the future, Yang Jian would have to return the karma.
Just as Yang Jian was thinking that, Shennong stroked his beard and chuckled. He sized up Yang Jian and said, "Is your master well?"
"Master is cultivating in seclusion on the Jade Spring Mountain. He rarely walks around the world. He's fine," Yang Jian replied with a smile. "When I came here, Master said that an old friend of his would help me. He also asked me to greet you, Senior."
"Hahaha, Fellow Cultivator Yu Ding, you don't know how to be polite." Shennong laughed delightedly and joked, "The greeting at the end was probably added by yourself, wasn't it?"
"Well … Alright." Yang Jian felt a little awkward.
Emperor Da Yu was a calm person and gave off the feeling that he was like a mountain. However, Shennong was kind and amiable. His words did not sound serious at all.
Before he reincarnated, he was a good person, but after he reincarnated, he could not change his nature.
Shennong introduced him to Yang Jian. "You should know this person. He's before me in the Three Emperors' Discussion. He's the one who created the golden age of the human race."
"Yang Jian greets Senior Fuxi."
"Alright." Fuxi nodded warmly. There was a smile in his eyes. He pointed at the seat opposite the two of them and said, "Sit down. Fellow Daoist Shennong and I are no longer human emperors. You don't have to be so reserved."
Yang Jian cupped his hands to express his thanks. He moved the stone chair back two feet before sitting down in a well-behaved manner.
Shinno shook his head when he saw this and scolded with a smile, "How did Yuding teach such a cautious disciple like you with such a lazy temper?"
"Nature dictates," Fuxi said from the side.
Yang Jian sighed in his heart.
If she hadn't struggled at the very bottom, how could she know that he was lying on the kang bed with only a little lass taking care of him? There were a few times when he narrowly escaped death … What kind of experiences were those?
Yang Jian originally came from a world where food and clothing were plentiful. Now that he had suddenly fallen into a desperate situation, his temperament had become much steadier and more cautious in the past few months.
Without strength, one could not be unbridled, nor could one be truly free and unfettered.
However, Yang Jian felt that when he could look up to the world, perhaps he would return to his original playful personality.
From the side, Yang Jian said, "Whether a junior is respectful to a senior or not depends on whether that senior is worthy of respect or not. Both seniors are Virtuous Imperial Emperors of the human race and have led the human race to its current prosperity. All humans should be respectful to them. "
After saying that, he shook his head and smiled as if he had thought of something.
"If it were those selfish seniors who disregard the lives of others for their own selfishness and fight for the fruits of the Dao, I would only frown coldly at them. Perhaps I would be afraid, but I wouldn't have much respect."
"These words should really be floated. It's a pity that I didn't prepare any wine."
Shinno's gaze towards Yang Jian was even more appreciative, and Fuxi also revealed a smile.
Yang Jian broke out in a cold sweat. Only now did he realize that flattery was also a skill …
Shinno asked Yang Jian about his next plan. Clearly, he wanted to make a plan for Yang Jian so that Yang Jian would not be too young and impetuous.
"Yang Jian, do you know how I met your master back then?" Seeing Yang Jian shake his head, Shennong smiled and said, "In my previous life, I had two good friends. One is the ancestor of the Earth Immortals, Great Immortal Zhenyuan, and the other is your master."
Yang Jian was stunned.
Master should have become a disciple of the Primeval Ancestor in the ancient times. In Shennong's previous life, he should have been Patriarch Hong Yun, who was also a mighty figure in the Purple Cloud Palace. How could he be friends with Master then?
Shennong saw Yang Jian's confusion and said with a smile, "Your master can be considered a disciple with skills. He already has a set of divine abilities, but few people know about them. In order to break through the bottleneck, he became a disciple of the Primeval Saint. However, because he was not famous, he was ranked as one of the twelve Golden Immortals. "
Yang Jian nodded slowly. He was a little curious about his master's divine abilities.
He was just curious.
Shennong sighed and said, "Your master is a truly carefree person. In fact, in my opinion, he is the most persistent person. For cultivation, for transcendence, he has nothing else in his heart. Until one day, he came to find me … "
Yang Jian listened carefully. Suddenly, Yang Jian realized that he knew too little about his master.
In the story that was passed down in the future, the reason why Yuding Zhenren was famous was because he had a disciple named Yang Jian.
In the story that was passed down in the future, Yuding Zhenren also died in the apotheosis. Therefore, Yang Jian did not want his master to take risks in the apotheosis.
But now that he thought about it, his master was full of mysteries, as if he was wrapped in layers of fog.
Perfected Taiyi once said that his master's divine abilities could be ranked in the top three among the second generation disciples of Chanism. This was just his speculation, because his master had never fought with others.
Now, Shennong said that his master had gone to listen to the Dao preaching in the Purple Cloud Palace, but he did not have the opportunity to enter the hall.
At that time, his master was already on par with Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun Ancestor. Now, how powerful was his divine abilities?
Yang Jian did not have any other thoughts, he was just curious.
Shennong's eyes were filled with nostalgia as he recalled his meeting with Yuding again.
"When I saw you again, I was already the ruler of the world. I was thinking hard about how to relieve the suffering of the people, but your master came to me in a dream at night and told me many things that I didn't understand at that time. He also left me a divine cauldron and a book."
Shennong took out a small cauldron and sighed. "In my previous life, I cultivated the Pill Dao. Almost all cultivators cultivate the Pill Dao. But the book your master left behind is the Pill Dao that your master painstakingly created. "
"However, your master did not allow me to mention this to others. I could only say that the gods of Daoism came to me in my dream and gave me the divine cauldron and the Hundred Herb Scroll. I went to taste the Hundred Herb Scroll just to verify the Pill Dao that your master gave me. "
Yang Jian couldn't help but be stunned.
Did Master play this big in the past? The Shennong Medicine Cauldron was given to Shennong by Master? Then the Hundred Herb Scroll …
"This is a meritorious act. Why didn't Master say anything?" Yang Jian asked with a frown.
"I did not understand it either, but your master warned me three times not to tell anyone else. I kept my mouth shut, thinking that perhaps the gods and people did not want to be burdened by fame."
Shennong stroked his beard and smiled bitterly. "It was not until I abdicated and ascended and took back the Dao Fruit of my previous life that I understood the deep meaning behind your master's words."
"What did Master say?" Yang Jian's curiosity could no longer be suppressed.
"He gave up." Shennong shook his head.
Yang Jian said, "What did he give up? Senior, just tell me directly. I am really depressed. "
"Becoming a Sage."
Shennong's words caused Yang Jian to freeze in place.
Becoming a Sage?
That was not something that could be said casually. Sages were truly immortal and indestructible.
However, if one wanted to become a Sage, the only feasible way was to kill the Three Corpses of the Essence Soul Dao and use great merit to push into the Sage realm!
Fuxi was also a little surprised. Although he had some friendship with Yuding Zhenren, Yuding Zhenren had once saved him when he was seriously injured in his previous life. He owed him a favor, but he did not have the chance to return it until today.
Shennong smiled and said, "Zhenyuanzi and I do not know about your master's background. However, he traveled the Primordial World with us a long time ago."
"Back then, the dragon and phoenix ruled the world. Many Connate lifeforms felt that Daira was perfect and the peak of Daira was the highest peak. However, after your master cultivated Daira, he felt that although his Dao was perfect, his Dao itself was not perfect. "
"However, your master only mentioned it to the two of us before he began to enter seclusion to comprehend. However, before he could understand, the news of the Saint realm above Daira spread throughout the world. It was the old man of the Three Pure Ones who had entered the Quasi-Saint realm. At that time, the Liches had just begun to rise. "
Yang Jian asked, "Wasn't the Essence Soul Dao set by the Dao Ancestor?"
"The Dao Ancestor walked ahead of all the Connate Spirits. Even when we were exploring the Daira realm, the Dao Ancestor had already achieved the Saint Dao Fruit."
Shennong's eyes were filled with emotions as he said, "The Three Pure Ones were formed from Pangu's essence soul. They had the merit and luck of creation, but they were still two steps slower than the Dao Ancestor. Now that I think about it, the Dao Ancestor is really impressive."
"Senior, please tell me more about my master. I want to hear more." Yang Jian was still puzzled. Why did his master give up on becoming a Saint?
He had already obtained the Mountain Splitting Axe. After leaving, he would return to Jade Spring Mountain and go to the Celestial Court to ask for the person. Yang Jian had a plan.
