The grand purple light instantly engulfed Zhang Jian’s figure.
Almost simultaneously, within the Ancestral God Hall, three figures appeared out of thin air.
The three figures were dressed simply and primitively, resembling the people of the Wilderness Human Race, yet they exuded a grand, primitive aura, with layers of dense imperial aura surrounding them. Behind them, countless Heaven and Earth Laws shimmered and intertwined, each like the sovereigns of the Path of Heaven and Earth.
At this moment, Ancestor Chufa in the grand hall seemed unaware of the appearance of these three figures, watching the closing passage and then turning away.
The three figures glanced at him, then turned their attention to the depths of the receding purple light.
"He is the Human Emperor born in the Zhou Mountain Realm. I did not expect his Primordial Spirit to be so unique, no wonder he achieved such astonishing accomplishments in such a short time!"
Beside him, a noble emperor dressed in plain clothes expressed slight admiration.
She was the only female emperor among the ancient Three Emperors.
Madam Ziyi.
Madam Ziyi held a revered position, not only being one of the ancient Three Emperors and Three Ancestors but also the Dao Companion of an Ancient Saint Emperor, with a status of high esteem.
Beside her, Emperor Sui and Emperor Chao each displayed different temperaments, their eyes reflecting.
They had been startled by the incense just now.
In just a few sticks of incense, the birth of incense had exceeded their imagination.
This strange occurrence immediately caught their attention.
Emperor Sui, having a deeper insight, clearly sensed an old possession of his on Zhang Jian.
He spoke:
"The Zhou Mountain Realm was formed from the most core fragments of the Taichu Celestial Realm, naturally imbued with the charm of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Most of our Human Race emperors have transcended calamities there; nurturing such a talented individual is only natural!"
In the beginning was a realm named Primordial Chaos. The fragmentation of the Primordial Celestial Realm led to the formation of the All Heavens Void.
The name of the Zhou Mountain Grand Realm was one they had heard of.
This realm was once quite bustling, with many Immortal Gods visiting, having come to "seek treasures"!
Even now, it is said many secrets remain in this Great Realm. Many Immortal Gods pay attention to it and leave legacies to continue probing.
Emperor Sui had a thought and suddenly smiled.
"It seems it won’t be long before our Heavens Human Race sees the rise of another Daoist Monarch amongst its ranks!"
The other two emperors were slightly surprised at this statement.
This Brother Huang’s evaluation of the Human Race emperor was indeed not low.
The other’s Dao Practice had only reached the Taiyi True Number, and the practice in the Taiyi Realm would significantly slow down, with thorns at every step. Many ancient Immortals of mysterious origin and great lineage find it difficult to progress, yet Emperor Sui believed he could soon reach the Daoist Monarch Realm.
However, if the Human Race could indeed gain another Daoist Monarch, it would add a layer of profundity to this Inference Era.
Emperor Chao considered for a moment and also spoke.
"He himself has already attained an Innate Divine Body, along with the Human Emperor Dao Fruit, and the conferment of the Divine Dao Emperor. Indeed, he is privileged. Within the Fire Cloud Grotto Heaven, there are other opportunities. If the great opportunity deep within the Fire Cloud Cave is found, achieving Daoist Monarch in a short time is hopeful!"
Of course, for the two emperors, this ’short time’ refers to several million years.
The Daoist Monarch Dao Fruit is truly extraordinary.
The great luck in the heavens and earth is limited, and the number of Daoist Monarchs that can emerge over time is indeed very limited.
They have come this far and naturally understand the difficulty within.
However, the Inference Era has ’just begun,’ so the available slots are relatively ample.
...
Within the Fire Cloud Grotto Heaven, Zhang Jian walked out from the depths of the purple light passage.
As his figure reappeared, he found himself in an expansive world flowing with countless fiery red lights, with dense crimson clouds filling the sky, leaving one in awe.
These fire clouds connected heaven and earth.
Yet as Zhang Jian gazed around, he clearly perceived the traces of the Path of Heaven and Earth hidden within these fire clouds, as if the laws of the Great Dao were directly exposed there, manifesting plainly in his eyes.
In the depths of the void, there was also a permeating flow of unique Innate Essence Qi.
Innate Spiritual Mechanism is close to the Dao, while Innate Essence Qi emerges from the evolution of all kinds of Dao Qi of heaven and earth. Absorbing it can directly increase Dao Practice and further aids Immortal Gods in mastering the Great Dao Laws of Heaven and Earth.
The more Immortal Gods absorb, the more naturally they will comprehend a part of the corresponding Great Dao Laws of Heaven and Earth.
It is rumored that during the opening of Taichu, there was such a dense presence of Innate Essence Qi in the heavens and earth.
"Truly worthy of being one of the top ten Grotto Heavens in All Heavens Void!"
Zhang Jian silently mused in his heart.
Legend has it that the Fire Cloud Cave in the Taichu Era ranked first among the Grotto Heaven Blessed Lands of the Primordial Celestial Realm.
But the first Great Power it encountered was unreliable, which nearly buried it.
Poor management almost caused it to drop out of the top ten Grotto Heavens of All Celestial Realms.
After falling into the hands of the Human Race and becoming a resting place for various Saint Emperors of the Human Race, it was managed anew and gradually regained prominence.
Appreciating the grand Heaven and Earth Dao Charm contained within this Grotto Heaven, Zhang Jian could not help but feel amazed.
But he also knew that his years of secluded cultivation in the Fire Cloud Grotto Heaven were about to begin.
Ancestor Chufa had revealed to him.
The Fire Cloud Cave has three layers: the outer layer, the inner layer, and the core layer.
The outer layer is where he resides; here, one can also cultivate in seclusion. While it allows the absorption of some Innate Essence Qi and the contemplation of the surrounding Great Dao Laws of Heaven and Earth, it is far less compared to the inner layer.
Not only is the inner layer set with Space-Time Law Bans, and the proportion of time flow is different, but it also contains many masterworks left by ancient members of the Human Race.
In the depths of the core layer, the proportion of time flow is even greater, containing certain Innate Dao traces from the time of the opening of Taichu, as well as the mystery of creation. This is the most precious wealth within the Fire Cloud Grotto Heaven.
