Chapter 157 The Primordial Measuring Ruler
Ling Xiao discovered two treasures as soon as he arrived in the human race. The first was the Kongtong Seal, a supreme treasure of the human race. As for the purple ruler in front of him, after being covered by his divine sense, he immediately understood what kind of magic weapon it was.
This object is called the Primordial Measuring Ruler, and it ranks first among the innate treasures of merit.
It was formed from the merits of the Great Dao of Creation, mixed with the primordial chaos and primordial energy.
Ling Xiao stared intently and saw that the ruler was only a foot long, its entire body swirling with primordial energy, faintly revealing a purple light, and carrying the aura of the Great Dao.
The body of the ruler is covered with endless runes, making it mysterious and extraordinary.
In the middle position, there are two large innate divine characters – "Liang Tian".
With a wave of his hand, Ling Xiao captured the Primordial Measuring Ruler in his hand. It felt slightly cool to the touch, and he could sense the powerful spiritual energy within it.
It should be noted that the attack power of the Primordial Measuring Ruler is comparable to that of the Pangu Banner, and it can naturally be made larger or smaller, with astonishing killing power.
Moreover, killing someone doesn't incur any karmic consequences.
Ling Xiao sat cross-legged on the spot, formed hand seals, and began to refine the magic weapon by unleashing his vast magical power.
In just six months, the magic weapon had been refined.
He then refined the Kongtong Seal, a treasure of the human race.
Although both of these magical treasures have many restrictions, they cannot stop Ling Xiao from reaching his current extremely high realm, which is the eighth level of the Quasi-Saint realm, and possesses powerful magical power.
In addition, his primordial spirit and physical body far surpass those of cultivators of the same level, so his speed in refining magic treasures is naturally unmatched by most.
Ling Xiao left this place, transformed into the alias "Xiao Ling," and rode on auspicious clouds to the ancestral land of the human race.
He stood suspended in mid-air, looking down at the countless tribes of all sizes that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Humans today have not yet built the structures of later generations. They hunt wild beasts and skin them to make tents.
Of course, most humans still live in thatched huts.
Ling Xiao knew that the three ancestors of the human race made many contributions to the human race, such as Suirenshi teaching people to make fire by drilling wood.
Humans began to eat cooked food and use fire to drive away wild animals.
Then there was Ziyi, who saw that in the primitive era, people were naked and, in the freezing cold, countless people died of the cold.
Later she taught humans to use animal skins for warmth and leaves for covering their bodies.
The third ancestor of the human race was named Zhisheng. His appearance taught people how to produce, gather, and hunt.
In the later Zhuangzi chapter "Robber Zhi", there is a famous saying: "In summer, they pile up firewood, and in winter they burn it. Therefore, they are called: people who know how to live."
Ling Xiao walked through the human tribe. His handsome appearance and otherworldly temperament attracted many onlookers.
As far as the eye could see, the human race was peaceful and harmonious.
The human men returning from hunting wore animal skin skirts and carried wild boars and antelopes in groups of three or five, their faces beaming with simple, honest smiles.
The women came out of their tents and thatched huts to greet them, accompanied by the joyful laughter of the children.
In Ling Xiao's view, most humans were still mortals, and even those who cultivated the Golden Core Dao bestowed by Laozi of Taiqing rarely reached the Nascent Soul or Divine Transformation realms.
Since I want to gain merit from the Heavenly Dao, I must change this situation!
So Lingxiao settled down in the Lieshan tribe, posing as a wandering Taoist priest, helping people solve their problems.
In just three to five years, the name "Immortal Xiao Ling" has become a resounding and awe-inspiring name.
Many tribes migrated to the vicinity of the Lieshan clan for protection because of Lingxiao.
This sensational scene finally caught the attention of the three ancestors in the ancestral land.
When the three ancestors of the human race descended upon the Lieshan clan, countless human men and women bowed down in reverence, showing them the utmost respect.
The Third Ancestor met Ling Xiao, who was at that moment treating a malignant disease that the human race could not cure.
With just one glance, the three ancestors were immediately shocked. They could not sense the depth of Ling Xiao's cultivation, but in their eyes, how could a mortal cure countless humans suffering from malignant diseases, and also re-organize the written language and pass on the martial arts of the human race?
"We pay our respects to our senior."
Facing Lingxiao, the three ancestors of the human race bowed deeply.
With a slight thought, Ling Xiao unleashed his vast magical power, lifting the three of them up.
Only then did the Third Ancestor stand up, immediately confirming that Ling Xiao's cultivation was stronger than theirs.
The Three Ancestors are the strongest among the six thousand innate humans. Their cultivation levels are all at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and they are not far from the Quasi-Saint realm.
However, the method of severing the three corpses transmitted by Hongjun requires an innate spiritual treasure to sever the corpses and become a quasi-saint.
But what innate spiritual treasures do humans possess?
Therefore, the three of them never dismembered the corpse.
The Third Patriarch also envied Xuandu's luck, because Xuandu had been taken as a disciple by Laozi of Taiqing many years ago, so he could naturally sever his corpse.
"Did I disturb you?"
"Humans and I are destined to meet, so I stayed a little longer."
Ling Xiao looked at the three ancestors and spoke slowly.
The three ancestors waved their hands repeatedly, and the eldest of the three ancestors, Suirenshi, stepped forward and said, "Senior, your words are too kind! We humans are deeply grateful for your help in relieving the worries and difficulties of the human race."
Ling Xiao nodded and took out a book, handing it to Suirenshi.
Suirenshi took it and looked at it closely. There were four big characters written on it: General Principles of Martial Arts.
He was overjoyed.
After hearing that a master had come to the Lieshan clan, he learned many things.
For example, this master taught martial arts to the human race, taking the body as a universe as the guiding principle, forging the physical body, allowing spiritual energy to enter the body, and as one cultivates to the end, one can even shatter mountains and rivers with fists and feet, which is extremely terrifying.
Suirenshi had only heard of it, and that expert had only worn a scripture at the martial arts level.
Suirenshi then opened the martial arts manual and began to examine it carefully.
It turns out that the record contained the cultivation steps from martial artist to Martial Emperor.
At this moment, Ling Xiao started to exaggerate, saying, "If one cultivates to the Martial Emperor realm, one is comparable to a saint."
This is obviously a hoax.
No matter how powerful Emperor Wu was, he was no match for the sages of the primordial world.
Even if this martial arts treatise was written by him, it is a martial arts system that he comprehended by combining the essence of many cultivation methods.
In reality, a Martial Emperor is comparable to a Quasi-Saint.
However, it should be noted that the Quasi-Saints in the primordial world were already very powerful.
If the human race continues its cultivation in an orderly manner, many quasi-saint level experts will emerge in a few years.
After Ling Xiao's initial deception, he immediately received feedback on his cultivation level, which deepened his understanding of the two Great Dao Laws and caused his magical power to surge.
He sensed that he was not far from reaching the ninth level of the Quasi-Saint realm.
"I made a promise with Nuwa and my fellow Daoists to return after a thousand years, and now, there are still eight hundred years left."
"At this rate, I can definitely break through to the Great Dao Saint level within eight hundred years."
Ling Xiao thought to himself, his gaze fixed on Shouyang Mountain in the east, recalling how Taiqing and Yuanshi had been commissioned by Hongjun to destroy the Western Sect.
"Eight hundred years from now, I will personally visit Shouyang Mountain."
A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, Ling Xiao ignored the three ancestors kneeling and bowing deeply. As countless humans thanked him with tears of gratitude for bestowing upon him the general principles of martial arts, he rose into the air.
