Chapter 121 Hongjun Visits
[The newly-minted Patriarch Jiao Ming finally realized that he might have caused a big disaster! ]

【Messy! Very messy! 】

【As far as I can see, spiritual wisdom has not directly ignited the fire of civilization for all living beings, but has instead provoked chaos and war. 】

[When everyone was in a daze, they naturally did not consciously form cliques or factions, nor did they occupy too many resources out of desire, so the prehistoric world generally tended to be peaceful.]

[But once the spiritual wisdom is awakened, it is different. Without the restraint of order and civilization, the spiritual wisdom will only arouse infinite desires. ]

[So in order to fight for various things and satisfy various desires, the prehistoric world was in chaos! ]

【And at this moment, you clearly realize that you must do something. 】

[“I should bring civilization and order to them!”]

[But, what civilization and order can I bring to them? ]

[The answer is: No! ]

[You are just an ordinary creature born and raised here, not a divine being born with innate knowledge. You have no original civilization or order.]

[What you know is only the Phoenix civilization that you learned from Zufeng in your previous life.]

[However, these are the Phoenix Clan’s things after all. You are worried that rashly pirating them will attract the attention of the Phoenix Clan, the original author, so you are hesitant...]

[Faced with hesitation, you choose: (?)]

[A: Pirates hard! The original author is nothing. If you have the guts, come to the Little Volcano and try to smack him. I'll pluck all your feathers out of you! B: Practice first, and then slowly work on it after you've regained your Daluo Jinxian status.]

"This……"

Zhao Si looked strange:
It seems that the free bird has finally been awakened by the slap of reality, and knows that any bad order is better than no order.

Although Zu Feng’s slavery is a valuable thing, Jiao Ming’s not caring about anything is even more valuable!
But to be honest, Jiao Ming can do nothing about it, because once he has wisdom, no matter what path he takes, it will not be worse than slavery, and slavery itself is the result of the law of the jungle.

As long as the creatures in the ancient world are allowed to fight for dozens or hundreds of times, and the time scale is extended long enough, the fire of civilization will definitely be ignited in the end.

But Jiao Ming didn't know this, or even if he did, he would not allow all the spirits he had enlightened with great difficulty to fall into long-term internal strife.

After all, he is not Zu Feng, who can treat the creatures he enlightened as slaves. In Jiao Ming's eyes, they are not slaves, but half of his "offspring". His children started a civil war, and the old father was naturally very anxious...

"Well... Strictly speaking, neither of these two options should work..."

One is a pirate, the other is an ascetic.

Looking at these two answers that obviously could not stand up to scrutiny, Zhao Si's mouth twitched, and he was not optimistic about either of them.

"Your bloodline is scattered all over the prehistoric world. The Third Ancestor almost killed you because of you. He wanted to kill you, but he couldn't determine your position for the time being, so he let you cause trouble."

"But once you start pirating the Phoenix Clan's civilization, you'll be incriminating yourself, and the Ancestral Phoenix will immediately rush over and kill you..."

As for asceticism.

Zhao Si was not very optimistic either, because Jiao Ming's aptitude was average. Even if he had the experience of a Daluo Jinxian, it would take a lot of time to rebuild. During such a long period of time, things in the outside world could easily change unpredictably.

But since this guy only gave me two options, I can only let him die twice...

"A first!"

[You chose option A, which is a complete piracy! The original author is nothing, if you have the guts to come and touch the little volcano, I will pluck all your feathers from you! ]

[You suddenly made up your mind and captured all the spirits around you, and then taught them the various civilizations you learned from Zufeng in your previous life.]

[After a while, the area around the chaotic little volcano finally became a little better. However, since you still dare not implement slavery, the core of the Phoenix civilization, the effect is still limited...]

[And the worst thing is that your piracy finally attracted the attention of the Phoenix Clan! ]

[Faced with a pirated dog that suddenly appeared, Zu Feng was stunned for a long time, and then began to carefully inquire about your background. ]

[After many private visits, Zu Feng finally confirmed that you are the damn Qi Ling introverted dog! ]

[One is internal circulation, the other is piracy. The two charges against you make Zu Feng itch with hatred, so he settles the new and old grudges together: If I can't kill the slaves, can't I kill you? ! ]

[One day, a mouthful of Nanming Lihuo fell from the sky, directly razing the area around the small volcano to scorched earth, and you, who were still only a Xuanxian, had no ability to resist and could only be burned to death... A generation of involutionary dogs and pirated dogs, after all, could not escape the justice from heaven! ]

[You died. The wrong choice led to the wrong ending...]

"really!"

Zhao Si was not surprised at all. If you were doing piracy under Zu Feng's nose, who would die if not you?
[Can we go back in time and return to our last life option? ]

"Yes!"

【Time has gone back...】

[…Facing the struggle in your heart, what do you choose (?)] [A: Pirate it! The original author is nothing, if you have the guts to come to the Little Volcano and try it? I’ll pluck all your feathers out of you! B: Practice first, and after you have recovered to become a Daluo Jinxian, you can slowly work on it.]

"Try B this time."

[You choose option B, practice hard first, and then slowly work on it after you have regained the Daluo Jinxian status.]

[After experiencing the blow of justice execution last time, you know that with your current cultivation and knowledge, you can't do much. Although you want to bring civilization and order to all living beings immediately, the cruel reality is here, which makes people feel helpless. ]

[So you can only turn a deaf ear to the outside world and focus on practicing immortal arts, trying to return to the Golden Immortal as soon as possible, and have the strength to face the Third Ancestor and Luohou head-on...]

【You begin to settle down. 】

[Settling...]

[After only ten epochs, you returned to the Golden Immortal Realm. Your progress was so fast that even you were surprised! ]

[After the second cultivation, your foundation is even deeper than in your previous life. The three flowers and five qi are intertwined with each other, like a whole. The spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth is constantly merging into your body. Even if you don't practice hard, your cultivation will still rise on its own. ]

[This is the true Daluo Jinxian! ]

[With your Daluo cultivation and the Golden Crow True Fire, you think you are already on the same level as the Third Ancestor. Even if you are really no match for him, you won't be killed in a few moves. You can still escape...]

[Hmm, that should be possible...]

[You comforted yourself for a while, and then officially left the retreat. ]

[But as soon as you step out of the retreat, you are stunned, because there is a person standing quietly outside the door, and he seems to have been waiting for you. ]

【Seeing you finally come out of seclusion, he looked at you curiously, and then exclaimed in amazement. 】

[You were stunned, and your mind was filled with confusion, because you are very familiar with this person...]

[He was dressed in a purple robe and in human form. This image and dress was unique in the world.]

[I don't know what the purple-robed Taoist priest was thinking about, but he smiled and bowed to you.]

[“I am Hongjun, a poor Taoist. I am honored to meet you, Taoist friend!”]

……

In the southern wilderness, in a small volcano.

Jiao Ming looked at the visitor at the door, smiling and greeting him. He felt confused for a moment:

Naturally, he thought of how he was tricked by this guy into rebelling in his previous life, which ended in a miserable outcome.

Although this old Taoist didn't sell out his teammates in the end, and really sacrificed his life for them, his loyalty is trustworthy, but... seeing this guy is always synonymous with bad luck...

And the most important thing now is that I clearly have never had any contact with it in this life, and have always lived in seclusion in this tiny volcano... Then how did he find me? !

"Friend or foe?"

Jiao Ming said slowly.

Upon hearing Jiao Ming's standard Fengyan, Taoist Hongjun narrowed his eyes, but also spoke in Fengyan:
"I am Hongjun, a poor Taoist. Nice to meet you, fellow Taoist!"

"We are friends, not enemies."

He said this, but Jiao Ming didn't completely believe it, so he asked again:
"How did you find it?"

Hongjun smiled and held up a drop of blood in his hand:
"I am here under the guidance of my fellow Daoist's bloodline."

Ok?
Jiao Ming was completely confused. After all, the Phoenix Clan in his previous life had not developed such a strange magic to find people by blood. Hongjun's move really confused him.

But now that I understand that it was my bloodline that led me here, it’s not surprising that Hongjun was able to find me.

Thinking about it, Jiao Ming asked again about his purpose:
"What are you doing here, fellow Daoist?"

Jiao Ming got to the point with these words.

So Hongjun couldn't help but put away his smile and said seriously and solemnly:
"To save all living things in the ancient world!"

Oh? What a big sign!
Jiao Ming looked at him in surprise:
"Tell me carefully."

Hongjun sighed and said in a deep voice:

"Your descendants are all over the wild world, and now they are fighting everywhere. If we don't stop them quickly, I'm afraid..."

Jiao Ming's pupils shrank. The thing he feared the most finally happened...
