Chapter 45: Guang Chengzi Recruits Disciples in Xuanyuan

  The forty-fifth expounded the teachings and transformed them, Guang Chengzi accepted disciples in Xuanyuan.

  After returning to the Jade Void Palace, Yuanshi Tianzun thought that although the future Human Emperor was noble, he was still a mortal after all. He didn't need to go in person with his sacred dignity. Moreover, the demon master Kunpeng had taken the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi as his disciple. If he went in person, wouldn't it be a loss of face? It would be better to send one of his disciples instead.

  Yuanshi Tianzun then gathered all his disciples and told them about taking Zhiren Huang as a disciple.

  Many disciples who had been cultivating for a long time heard that there was such a good thing, and they all looked up with anticipation, hoping to get this opportunity. Yuanshi Tianzun cast his gaze towards the door below, he originally wanted to send Rongdeng, but thinking that Rongdeng had listened to the Tao together with him in the Zixiao Palace, if this great merit was given to him, after his cultivation improved, Rongdeng might have other ideas.

  Then, Yuanshi Tianzun said to Guang Chengzi: "Guang Chengzi, you are the leader of the twelve Golden Immortals under my door, so this matter will be handled by you!" After finishing speaking, Yuanshi Tianzun took out a square seal and continued: "This seal is called Fantian Seal, which was refined from the broken half of Mount Buzhou that I picked up when I mended the sky for my master. Mount Buzhou is the spine of Pangu, so this Fantian Seal has an astonishing power, it's the top-grade treasure of the Post-Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, you take it to protect yourself!"

  The Pangu Bow, the treasure of the Wu tribe, was transformed from a single rib of the great god Pangu. When Hou Yi used it, he had the power of the pre-heavenly spiritual treasure. The Fan Tian Seal, made from Pangu's spine, should have had the same level of power as the Pangu Bow, but it didn't. This is because after Pangu's spine transformed into the Kunlun Mountains, it was exposed to the wind and rain of the desolate wilderness every day, causing its spiritual energy to gradually disperse and be absorbed. Unlike the Pangu Bow, which was kept in the Wu tribe's ancestral temple by the twelve ancestors of the Wu tribe, preserving its spiritual energy.

  Hou Yi, being a member of the Wu tribe, cultivated the Wu tribe's techniques and could achieve unity with the Pangu Bow. The Three Pure Ones, although transformed from Pangu's original spirit, were part of the Daoist lineage of Hongjun, and naturally couldn't bring out the maximum power of the Fan Tian Seal. As for Guang Chengzi, it was even more impossible. Nevertheless, the Fan Tian Seal still had such astonishing power.

  Guang Chengzi is now doubly joyful, his heart bursting with delight. Amidst the envy of the crowd, he kneels down to thank Yuanshi Tianzun for his great kindness and receives the Heaven's Seal. He then sets off to find Ren Huang in the vast wilderness. The various sects also disperse, each returning to their own affairs without further mention.

  Among the many people, there was one person with great resentment in his heart, and that was Xuan Jiao's only quasi-saint, Rán Dēng Dào Rén. Rán Dēng had been serving as the deputy leader of the Yu Xū Gate, always being diligent and conscientious. At this time, when he heard Yuán Shǐ Tiān Zūn say that he would take Zhōu Huáng as his disciple, Rán Dēng was full of expectation, thinking that he would be sent on a mission. Unexpectedly, Yuán Shǐ Tiān Zūn instead sent Guǎng Chéng Zǐ, and even bestowed upon him the powerful Fān Tiān Seal. How could this not make Rán Dēng's heart burn with anger? Rán Dēng was originally not a broad-minded person, and last time Yuán Shǐ Tiān Zūn sent Guǎng Chéng Zǐ to find Kūn Péng, he was somewhat dissatisfied. This time, Yuán Shǐ Tiān Zūn again gave this good opportunity to Guǎng Chéng Zǐ, which completely made Rán Dēng lose all hope in Yuán Shǐ Tiān Zūn.

  The lamp in his heart secretly made up his mind, thinking that since you are not benevolent, I will not be righteous. He also found an opportunity to rush to the vast wilderness! Yuanshi Tianzun never thought that due to his own momentary mistake, the Xuan teachings would suffer a heavy blow during the sealing of the gods.

  In the northwest of Dadi, on the banks of the Ji River, lived two ancient tribes, the Xiong and the Youchong. They had been surnamed after water for generations, intermarrying and merging, constantly developing. This year, the leader of the Xiong tribe, Shao Dian, married a woman named Fu Bao from the Youchong tribe.

  One evening, while Fu Bao was gazing at the Big Dipper, a white light suddenly flashed in the Heavenly Pivot position, illuminating all around. Fu Bao conceived and became pregnant, and a year later, she gave birth to a son named Gongsun Xuan Yuan on Mount Shou.

  Xuanyuan was born and cried non-stop, no one could do anything about it. Fu Bao was very anxious and immediately had someone find Shao Dian, but Shao Dian also didn't know what to do, so he found the tribe's doctor in charge of medicine, who examined Xuanyuan and said that he didn't have any illness, and was actually stronger than a normal baby.

  This child has been loved like a treasure by his parents since he was born, and seeing this situation makes one remember the good old days.

  At this time, someone came to report that Guang Chengzi Xianshi, a disciple of Yuqing Shengren, had arrived. Although Yuan Shi Tian Zun is one of the Three Pure Ones in Taoism, his name was not very well-known among humans. Before Fuxi attained enlightenment, humans only worshipped Nüwa, Kunpeng and Hou Tu. Even Laozi, who was considered a saint by humans, was only revered by a small number of people. As for Kunpeng's great disciple Wudao, many people offered sacrifices to him every day. When Shao Dian heard that Guang Chengzi Xianshi had arrived, he didn't know what his intentions were, but he couldn't afford to neglect him and hastily went out to greet him, lest he offend the immortal master.

  Shao Dian and others arrived at the door, only to see a Taoist wearing a blue robe standing in mid-air. Although the Taoist was clearly visible before their eyes, he seemed to be dissolved into the universe, giving off an aura of mystery. His appearance was dignified and majestic. Shao Dian led the crowd in bowing down. Guang Chengzi waved his sleeve, and the crowd was lifted up by a gentle force. It's strange to say that Xuan Yuan had been crying non-stop, but after seeing Guang Chengzi, he stopped crying and stared at him with sparkling eyes, giggling uncontrollably.

  Guang Chengzi saw the situation and smiled slightly, then stretched out his hand in mid-air and beckoned. Xuan Yuan flew out of Fu Bao's arms and into Guang Chengzi's hands. In fact, after receiving Yuanshi Tianzun's instructions, Guang Chengzi had arrived at Shao Dian's tribe early on. When Xuan Yuan was born, he used magic to make him cry non-stop. Only when everyone else was helpless did he make a dazzling appearance. Guang Chengzi's actions showed how hypocritical his heart was.

  Seeing the crowd's respectful attitude towards him, Guang Chengzi was overjoyed in his heart. He then said: "This child has a predestined relationship with me, I want to take him as my disciple, what do you think, Clan Leader?"

  Shao Dian Ting Guang Cheng Zi wanted to take his own son as an apprentice, and he was also very excited in his heart. At this time, it was rare for anyone of the human race to obtain a cultivation method. So he hurriedly said: "The young child can get the guidance of the immortal master, which is his good fortune. Everything will be fine with the immortal master in charge, and I have no other intentions."

  Guang Chengzi heard this and immediately had a smile on his face, obtaining the position of Ren Huang's teacher, which meant that he had great merit. However, he did not know that although the teacher of Ren Huang could share some of Ren Huang's merit, the merit he shared was allocated according to his own contributions to humanity and education of Ren Huang. People only knew that Kun Peng obtained two merits from Fu Xi, but they did not know that these two merits were what Kun Peng deserved for his contributions to humanity. Although Guang Chengzi obtained the position of Ren Huang's teacher, if he wanted to obtain great merit, he had to educate Xuan Yuan well and make contributions to humanity, which was something Guang Chengzi did not know.

  Guang Chengzi said: "Since the patriarch agrees, I will take Xuan Yuan back to the mountain and teach him well. When he has achieved something in the future, I will let him return to help the patriarch manage the tribe."

  Xuanyuan's mother, Bao, heard that Guang Chengzi was going to take Xuanyuan away and felt very reluctant in her heart. She asked: "I don't know how many years Xuanyuan will have to follow the Taoist master to cultivate before he can achieve something?"

  Guang Chengzi said: "With Xuan Yuan's talent, it will take only twenty years."

  Xuanyuan's mother, Fu Bao, although reluctant to part with Xuanyuan, also feared that she would hinder his future prospects, so she said nothing more. Guang Chengzi saw that the crowd had no objections and took Xuanyuan back to the mountain to cultivate.

  Guang Chengzi, after accepting the next Human Emperor as his disciple, was the first to sense the heavenly mechanism. It was Tongtian Jiao's master who felt extremely dissatisfied with Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Laojun's actions.

  The struggle for the human race's destiny is not simply a matter of who becomes the Human Emperor, but rather who the human race has more faith in. However, the Heavenly Master did not expect that the Primordial Lord would collude with the Jade Pure One, pulling off such a move, and before he could even react, the position of the next Human Emperor's mentor was snatched away by them without even consulting him. It seems that the name of the Three Purities is now nothing more than an empty shell.

  The Primordial Lord is indifferent to who teaches humanity as long as someone does, but the Jade Pure One has colluded with the Primordial Lord and gained the upper hand in teaching humanity. Although his own sect has a multitude of immortals, it has fallen behind in teaching humanity.

  With the position of Human Emperor's teacher, Xuan Jiao's status in the human race will soon be improved. The faith of the human race will also gradually split into Xuan Jiao. Moreover, with the help of the Human Emperor, Xuan Jiao has a transcendent identity among humans and will have the assistance of humans in doing things, playing a crucial role in attracting faith.

  Now Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun are secretly taking action, obviously to gradually force the Tongtian Sect Master out of the human race, thereby weakening his sect's aura. The two of them have calculated this, making the Tongtian Sect Master extremely resentful. Originally, considering Taishang Laojun as a senior fellow apprentice, the Tongtian Sect Master did not mind dividing the human tribe's faith, but unexpectedly Taishang Laojun actually colluded with Yuanshi Tianzun, wanting to give him a fatal blow, thoroughly expelling the Jie Teaching from the human race.

  As a result, the remaining three or four points of affection were gone. On the contrary, Tongtian Sect Master had some appreciation for Kunpeng, who was able to save Yuanshi Tianzun's face in the matter of Fuxi.

  In fact, the Lord of Tongtian didn't care much about the position of the Human Emperor's Master. No matter how Taishang Laojun arranged it, he wouldn't have any opinion. Of course, there was a premise, that is, Taishang Laojun could put this matter on the surface, rather than secretly manipulating behind the scenes, without even consulting with the Lord of Tongtian.

  The Tianxian Sect Master had the "Xianjian Sword Array" bestowed by the Daozu, but only after establishing his sect and becoming a saint did he discover that he didn't have a treasure to suppress the aura of luck. When the various saints established the Human Emperor, he found that the human tribe's aura was extremely strong, and naturally wanted to gain something from it. The Tianxian Sect Master was very proud, although he didn't have a spiritual treasure to suppress the aura of luck, he also didn't want to ask for help from others, so he wasn't particularly concerned about the position of the Human Emperor's teacher. If he could get it, that would be great, but if not, there wouldn't be much loss. Therefore, after understanding what Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun had done, although the Tianxian Sect Master was angry, he didn't want to ruin their plans. By doing so, he also sold Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun a great favor, fulfilling the emotional ties between the Three Purities. If in the future Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun were to do something like this again, even if the Tianxian Sect Master cut off all ties with them due to their shared karma from emerging from Pangu, no one would be able to blame him.
