Chapter 481 Merit? All the Saints Rushed Towards!
Chapter 481 Merit? All the Saints Rushed Towards!
The Supreme Sage looked slightly surprised, as if he hadn't expected the Heavenly Dao to reveal something like this.
Originally, in the eyes of the Supreme Sage, after the demon race and the witch race were forced to migrate into the demon realm and the witch realm respectively, the bull race was the most powerful in the prehistoric land.
Not only is Niu Ben, the foremost saint, in charge, but the clan leader Niu Ba is also a saint.
But who would have thought that, according to the will of Heaven, the human race would be the one to rise to prominence on the primordial land next?
After a moment of silence, the Supreme Lord came to his senses and sighed:
"As Heaven's will has revealed, humanity will prosper; this is destiny!"
Just then, Yuanshi Tianzun, who was standing to the side, suddenly thought of something. His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he looked at Taishang and Tongtian Jiaozhu with excitement.
"Big brother, third brother!"
"The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race were all ordained by Heaven."
"If we could assist them in attaining enlightenment, wouldn't we receive a reward of Heavenly Merit?"
Upon hearing what the Primordial Celestial Venerable said, both the Supreme Sage and the Sage of Heaven were taken aback, and then they realized what he meant.
"yes!"
"Although it is the human race that will rise to great prominence, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were also chosen by Heaven."
"But there is no specific candidate for their advisors."
"If our three religions can assist the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in attaining enlightenment, we will surely receive immense rewards of merit!"
"At that time, it will be of great benefit to both the fortunes of our three religions and to ourselves."
The Sage of Heaven said with great excitement.
If it were anything else, the Three Pure Ones might not even care about it.
After all, there are not many things that can move a saint.
However, the power of merit is an exception.
This is a panacea; it is of great benefit to both enhancing the fortune of the three religions and increasing their own cultivation!
After a slight pause, the Supreme Sage nodded, then looked meaningfully at Yuanshi and Tongtian, and said:
"It seems we'll have to make a trip to the human realm!"
Tongtian and Yuanshi had no objection to what Taishang said.
Then, the Three Pure Ones vanished from their spot in a flash.
……
At this juncture, the Western religion, Mount Sumeru.
Beside the Golden Pool of Merit.
The two saints, Jieyin and Zhunti, were sitting cross-legged, meditating.
Suddenly, the two opened their eyes at the same time, both feeling the revelation of the Heavenly Way.
"Senior brother!"
"This...this human race is destined to produce three sovereigns and five emperors, and it's even a matter of fate!"
Zhunti exclaimed in surprise, his face filled with disbelief.
Jieyin glanced at her, her expression a mixture of tenderness and astonishment.
Unexpectedly, this inconspicuous human race on the primordial land was actually the great race foretold by the Heavenly Dao.
Just as the divine was pondering, Zhunti also sensed the destiny of the infant who had descended upon that remote human tribe.
"Is it starting already?"
"One of the Three Sovereigns has been born!"
As he spoke, Zhunti stared intently at Jieyin and continued:
"Humanity must rise to prominence; we, the Western Cult, cannot simply stand by and watch!"
"Senior brother, this might also be an opportunity for the Western Religion!"
Upon hearing this, Jieyin frowned slightly, somewhat not understanding what Zhunti meant.
Seeing this, Zhunti quickly pursed his lips and explained:
"The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race needed someone to assist them in attaining enlightenment, didn't they?"
"If we could secure the position of Imperial Tutor, who assisted the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, for our Western Sect, wouldn't we gain immense merit when they attain enlightenment?"
"Although we still owe Heaven a great deal of merit, surely we'll repay it all someday?"
"The problem is that there's nowhere to earn that merit."
"Right now, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race are about to be born one after another. This is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity!"
The more he spoke, the more excited Zhunti became.
Earlier, he and Jieyin gained a lot of Heavenly Dao merits in the interdimensional war.
Unfortunately, the power of merit was taken back by Heaven before it could be given to them.
After all, the two brothers borrowed a lot of merit from the Heavenly Dao in order to attain sainthood, and they naturally needed to repay it.
Upon hearing Zhunti's words, Jieyin immediately understood and his eyes lit up, saying:
"That's right."
"How could I have forgotten that?"
"Let's go! We're heading to the human realm right now!"
Having said that, Jieyin and Zhunti didn't linger. They leaped into the air and transformed into two streaks of light, disappearing into the distance.
……
Meanwhile, the Ten Thousand Mountains.
Niu Ba also sensed the revelation of the will of Heaven.
"What?"
"Humans?"
"The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors?"
Niu Ba frowned, his expression becoming slightly serious.
Unexpectedly, Heaven would reveal such a thing at this time.
"In the ensuing primordial world, it was actually the human race that flourished, not our bull race?"
Niu Ba muttered to himself, his brows furrowed in deep thought.
In his original view, after the demon race and the witch race became a thing of the past, the bull race should have become the number one race in the prehistoric world.
After all, among the Bull Clan, there are two Saints: him and Niu Ben.
Moreover, the cattle tribe is developing extremely rapidly these days.
However, what Niu Ba never expected was that, according to the will of Heaven, the next protagonist of the prehistoric world would be the human race!
After a moment of contemplation, Niu Ba came to his senses and murmured softly:
"What's so special about this human race?"
"Weren't they just created from clay by the sage Nuwa? How can they compare to our Bull Clan?"
"How about... we go to the underworld and ask Ben'er?"
Thinking about it, Niu Ba turned his gaze and looked in the direction of the Netherworld.
After a moment's thought, he took a deep breath and sighed:
"That's enough!"
"It's best to stay in the Bull Clan. If anything happens, Ben'er will come back!"
……
Meanwhile, in the demon realm.
The Demon Emperor Di Jun also sensed the divine revelation and learned that the outside world would be a time of great prosperity for the human race.
"What?"
"They're actually humans?"
"I thought that with the disappearance of my demon race and witch race from this primordial world, the bull race was about to rise!"
After a moment's hesitation, Di Jun gave a cold laugh and said:
"That's excellent."
"Isn't Niu Ben relying on his strength?"
"But so what? Their race still failed to become the ruler of the primordial world."
As he spoke, Di Jun narrowed his eyes slightly, a ruthless glint flashing in them, and said softly:
"Just you wait!"
"One day, my demon race will surely return to the primordial world!"
"When the time comes, we will definitely take back everything we've lost!"
……
Meanwhile, in the realm of witches...
Emperor Jiang, the ancestral witch, also learned of the divine revelation.
"Oh?"
Is humanity about to rise to power in the outside world?
"The ways of the world are truly unpredictable!"
Dijiang sighed with emotion, having originally thought that the outside world would be the domain of the Bull Clan.
Who would have thought that this divine revelation would foreshadow the rise of the human race?
After a moment's thought, Dijiang sighed and remarked:
"Let whatever changes occur in the outside world be!"
"To forge iron, one must be strong oneself."
"For our witch clan, the most urgent task is to improve ourselves!"
