Chapter 1, Please Loan the Treasure
Pangu shattered Hongmeng, separating clarity from murkiness and revealing Heaven and Earth. As Heaven and Earth first opened, myriad things thrived chaotically; dragons and phoenixes roamed the Primordial World, followed by Hong Jun spreading his teachings for three thousand years.
In the Primordial World stood a Divine Mountain known as Kunlun Mountain. Stretching across the Kunlun Mountain Range for hundreds of thousands of miles, it featured three main peaks, each crowned with a majestic palace. The central peak bore the plaque of Taiqing Palace, the left peak’s Divine Palace read Yuqing Palace, and the right peak’s Divine Palace was inscribed with Shangqing Palace.
At this moment, within a side hall at the edge of Shangqing Palace, a naive-looking young man was busy scribbling in a small booklet with a pen.
The youth named Bai Jin, originally an ordinary individual, was a White Crane who had transcended. In his past life, he was an extremely ordinary person. Unexpectedly, he painlessly and humanely crossed over to the Primordial World while asleep. Initially resistant, he was ecstatic upon learning he could become an Immortal and achieve eternal life. However, when he discovered his master was the infamous Tongtian Sect Master, he was completely dumbfounded. The Tongtian Sect Master? The one without a single friend, whose family was ruined by tragedy? Was his future not doomed? What’s worse, he was only an Outer Disciple.
After learning he was a disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master, Bai Jin knew he couldn’t rely on his master. Over the years since his crossing, he covertly developed a self-help plan. Although the Divine Enthronement Battle was still far off, Bai Jin already felt a strong sense of crisis.
Putting down the pen, some mysterious symbols appeared on the white paper. These symbols, known as talismans, served as a script for communication among the Immortal Gods.
Looking at the talismans, he recited: "Primordial Self-Salvation Guide, the first and most critical step, to curry favor with the two Elders. The Eldest Uncle personifies Supreme Water, so one must appear detached and ethereal in front of him. The Second Master values propriety and virtue, requiring one to show respect for rules in his presence."
Clutching his fist, he said: "Bai Jin, you can do it."
He then solemnly put away the booklet and walked outside, squeaking the large hall door open and stepping out directly.
A few steps later, he saw an elegant lady slowly walking along the mountain path.
