Chapter 3, Encountering the Earth Mother

The white brocade descended from the sky, the Daoist robe fluttering gracefully, exuding an extraordinary demeanor just from its appearance. It performed a bow and said: "Bai Jin from Kunlun Mountain pays respects to you, fellow Daoist."

"Go find a mount for the master." Bai Jin's voice echoed from afar

Bai Jin felt a surge of joy in her heart, knowing that it would be easier to handle since it involved my master. She immediately said: "My master's title is Tongtian"

Bai Jin is honestly sitting opposite Houtu

Bai Jin respectfully said: "Senior sister, do you have any instructions?"

The woman glanced at Bai Jin and said: "Houtu!"

Thank you, senior

Bai Jin respectfully said: "The strength of the Earth Mother Ancestor Witch is unparalleled in the primordial chaos, but what truly impresses me is the compassion of Her Majesty."

The Holy Mother of No-Action nodded and said, "Originally, that was the plan, but later I heard the master say that the white crane is neither steady enough nor imposing enough"

Suddenly, Bai Jin stood up, his eyes widening in an instant. "Houtu? Is my luck too good or too bad?" He hurriedly bowed and excitedly said, "I pay my respects to the great and compassionate Houtu Niangniang"

My qualifications are not very good, and I am like a world apart from my two senior brothers and sisters. I am merely an outer disciple upon entering. I find it strange that my master and the library would accept me at that time

After a moment of silence, Bai Jin curiously asked, "Is this the location of the Wu clan's tribe, Empress Houtu?"

Bai Jin could not help but tease a little: "Just look with your eyes!"

It has been decided that one essential task during this outing is to find a mount for the master. No, I must also include the two senior uncles; what if they also take a liking to me? A celestial white crane as handsome as I am is indeed rare in the primordial world

Houtu revealed a gentle smile and said, "This is the world created by the Father God, and I want to take a good look at it." The deity's expression shifted as he said, "Little one, what do you think of this world?"

It is already embarrassing enough for a dignified time traveler to become a named disciple; if I were to further degrade myself to becoming a mount, would I still have any face left as a time traveler

Picking up a branch in hand to poke at the campfire, he said: "The world created by the Father God is vast with oceans and beautiful mountains. I have traveled almost halfway through it, and I feel a subtle stirring in my heart. Everything seems perfect, yet there appears to be something amiss, though I cannot quite articulate what it is that feels wrong."

Bai Jin shook her head

Bai Jin walked through the woods, her mind in a state of confusion, wondering where Wuyi Mountain was. The sound of the abacus clicking echoed in her ears, and she even recalled the incident of being intercepted by the Lich. However, just as she had emerged from the mountain, the subsequent plans had yet to be implemented, and she found herself completely lost.

... ...

The Unfathomable Holy Mother looked at Bai Jin with a strange expression and said, "Do you not know?"

However, after leaving Kunlun Mountain and wandering through the vast expanse of the world, Bai Jin discovered a very important issue: it seemed that she was lost

Houtu paused for a moment and said with a smile, "An interesting little ghost!"

The Holy Mother, suppressing a smile, said: "Master's initial intention for you was to serve as a mount."

The heavens are vast and boundless, and all things are in a state of desolation. Above the primordial chaos lies the Demon Court of the Nine Heavens, while below, the Shaman Clan roams freely. The demons govern the skies, and the shamans govern the earth, engaged in an unending war.

In the darkness, Bai Jin stood on a mountain peak, looking at the flickering lights of fire below in the mountains, and joyfully said: "There is fire, could there be living people?"

The woman said with a smile: "So you are his disciple, come and sit down!"

Bai Jin exclaimed in shock: "What? A mount?"

... ...

One can only walk straight in one direction, traversing mountains and rivers, piercing through clouds and chasing the moon. This journey lasts for a month. The time in the primordial world is different from that of the past life; a single day in the primordial world is equivalent to four thousand three hundred and eighty hours, and a month here equates to thirty years in the past life. All life here is born sacred, and there is nothing inappropriate about it.

Bai Jin scratched his head and said with a silly smile, "Alright"

Bai Jin followed the Wudang Holy Mother into the mountains, and as they walked, they arrived at the edge of a cliff, gazing at the rolling sea of clouds below

Bai Jin walked over, sat down opposite, and asked: "May I ask how you are addressed, senior?"

Bai Jin hurriedly asked, "Senior sister, does the master still have this plan now?"

No

Bai Jin's main purpose for coming out this time is to scheme for the acquisition of treasure, while also locating the mother tree of Da Hong Pao in Wuyi Mountain. Additionally, he intends to showcase his tea brewing skills to his master and second uncle. Although the master and second uncle may not appreciate it, the grand uncle will surely enjoy it. When the time of the Battle of the Gods arrives, the grand uncle will show mercy, and the depth of this strategy is truly astonishing. It is a win-win situation, achieving multiple goals with a single effort, just thinking about it brings great joy.

Houtu revealed a hint of a smile and said: "Interesting little fellow, please take a seat"

The Holy Mother exclaimed urgently, "Junior Brother, where are you going?"

A look of surprise flashed in Houtu's eyes as she smiled and said, "Great compassion and great mercy? You are the first to bestow this title upon me. Shouldn't the world remember the warlike ancestral shaman Houtu instead?"

Bai Jin, dressed in a blue garment, walked through the vast expanse of the world, where trees flourished and strange beasts roamed. With a swift motion, she swatted a mosquito the size of a sparrow, glancing around with a look of confusion in her eyes

The woman looked up at Bai Jin and said with a gentle smile, "If I remember correctly, Kunlun Mountain is the place of cultivation for the Three Pure Ones. What is your relationship with them?"

The Holy Mother of No-Action sat on a piece of blue stone and said, "I remember your former home was also like this, traversing through the sea of clouds"

The Holy Mother Wudang said with a smile, "Then I do not know."

Immediately dive downwards; it would be wonderful to encounter a kind and powerful being, as I could then ask for directions. As for the minor demons and creatures, they have not yet consumed as much rice as I have traveled.

Beside a river, a roaring bonfire blazes, with a beast's leg roasting above it. Next to the bonfire sits a woman dressed in a yellow fairy robe, exuding elegance and grandeur

How did Your Highness come to be here

Bai Jinpan sat beside her and curiously asked, "Senior sister, why do you think Master chose to take me as a disciple?"

Before Bai Jin emerged, he had made detailed plans. In the primordial chaos, there are many innate spiritual treasures, most of which already have their owners. However, there is one place that Bai Jin remembers still concealing an innate spiritual treasure. It is also the only location he knows that might have an innate spiritual treasure, the Falling Treasure Money in Wuyi Mountain. In the future, it will shine brilliantly in the Battle of the Gods. With the Falling Treasure Money in hand, what treasures could he possibly fear lacking in the future

Bai Jin blinked her eyes; that was a matter concerning the once azure sky and the white crane, what does it have to do with me, Bai Jin

The Holy Mother of No Equal patted Sheng Jin's shoulder and reproached, "We are all fellow disciples, why be so formal? If this continues, Senior Sister will get angry in the future!"

Bai Jin immediately rose and flew outside

Have you already noticed the deficiencies in the world? Bai Jin opened his mouth, but in the end, he said nothing. He is still a small figure now, able to go with the flow, but if he were to prematurely expose the matter of reincarnation and cause any significant changes, it would be beyond what this small person could withstand
