Chapter 2004: Grand Primordial Eternal Origin Dao Sovereign Ancestor Emperor Heavenly Venerate

"Three Pure Ones?" Garuda tilted his head in confusion.

"Yes." Nathan nodded with a serious expression. If we’re talking about the combination of them, then it should be those three.

"The Three Pure Ones are the highest deities in the Taoist pantheon, representing the pure, primordial manifestations of the Tao and the origin of all existence. They actually rank above the Jade Emperor in the Taoist cosmic hierarchy.

"The first one is Yuanshi Tianzun, the Jade Pure One. He is the absolute, undifferentiated potential of the Tao before creation. In other words, he’s the stillness and origin of heaven and earth.

"He splits the chaotic energy of the Chaos Pearl into two distinct forces: the Spirit Pearl and the Demon Orbs. Basically, Nezha originated from the Demon Orb.

"Lingbao Tianzun, the Supreme Pure One, meaning Heavenly Worthy of Numinous Treasures. He’s the one structuring the cosmos, the separation of Yin and Yang, and the establishment of universal laws and sacred scriptures.

"Last but not least, Daode Tianzun, the Grand Pure One. He’s the Heavenly Worthy of the Tao and Its Virtue. He’s the manifestation of the Tao within human life."

Evelyn looked down, contemplating. "What is Tao, actually?"

"Tao is man’s romance! No, wait..." Nathan calmed himself down and coughed to hide his embarrassment.

He was a bit too excited about Tao after reading too many martial arts novels.

"Tao is the fundamental, ineffable source and underlying principle of the universe. It can be considered the way, path, or road.

"However, you can’t exactly describe Tao. After all, the Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. So, you can probably think of it as something mysterious like karma, or it might be karma itself.

"Even if you can understand them, you will not know what they are exactly." Nathan shook his head helplessly.

Evelyn looked down, contemplating. "I personally don’t have anything to add about this Tao or the Three Pure Ones. If they’re so strong, then I don’t have any problem."

"Good. From now on, you shall be Grand Primordial Eternal Origin Dao Sovereign Ancestor Emperor Heavenly Venerate." Nathan nodded with a satisfied smile.

"..." Evelyn just looked at him with a dumbfounded expression. "You better not teach our children that, or I’m going to slap you."

"..."

The others were laughing. Nathan was always like this. Whenever he mentioned the novels, he would get excited. Then again, Nathan loved the stories so much because they generated fantasies in his mind. It was normal for him to get excited, thinking how the story would go in his mind and enjoying the world it created.

He knew that the world he came to was something similar to the stories he had seen so many times, but he couldn’t enjoy everything.

That was why he was trying to enjoy what was actually possible in his current situation.

Besides, they were already used to this childish behavior and considered it cute. Rather than getting fixated on other things that might ruin their relationship, it was good that Nathan had other things to focus on.

That was why they didn’t try to stop him from enjoying it. Even when Evelyn said those words, she didn’t mean it. She was just joking around.

"In any case, I am willing to accept the Three Pure Ones. The problem is whether they’re good enough to face the aliens or not. After all, the Jade Emperor..." Evelyn frowned. After hearing the story about the Jade Emperor, she thought these three didn’t exist.

"Well, I told you once before. The thing about defeating a young master would lead to his brother, his uncle, his brother, his father, his grandfather, his ancestor, right?"

"Right."

"You can treat these three as ancestors or ancestor elders."

"I want to ask you what’s wrong with the way you explain them. At the same time, I’m doubting myself because I understand your explanations." Evelyn shook her head helplessly.

"Your training is completed. Now, you’re really the Grand Primordial Eternal Origin Dao Sovereign Ancestor Emperor Heavenly Venerate." Nathan nodded with a satisfied expression.

Evelyn just sighed, unable to win against him in an argument like this.

"In any case, since everyone knows what to do next, let’s proceed immediately. Please prepare the summoning circle. I will give you my blood once I’m done with upgrading everyone." Nathan waved his hand.

They agreed and split up. Luna and Iris would focus on their divine weapons and familiar bodies’ creations.

The rest would help with the summoning circles while their familiars were also getting upgraded.

Mae accompanied Nathan all the time, making sure that his karma remained big enough not to affect anything with his life.

Nathan first fulfilled the promises to his familiars and turned all of them into true gods. It took a lot, but they originally had helped him a lot, so their karma was also considerably high.

Nathan didn’t have to spend much of his karma to forcefully boost them. Once their true vessels formed, all they needed to do was start to convert their divinity to authority.

Tiamat and the other true gods were more than willing to teach them.

As long as they had an army of true gods, they would stand a chance against Yog-Sothoth.

Once he was done, he started moving to other gods. Of course, Vivian got it first. They needed to head to another planet first because Charlotte hadn’t become a fairy goddess.

They needed to use their power to somehow create a place where Charlotte could live, even for just a moment.

Then, Nathan continued with the rest of the gods like Lilith, Amphitrite, and so on.

With this, the only gods that hadn’t reached true gods were those who weren’t originally gods when summoned. They would still need some time before they could even attempt to become true gods. There was also a chance that their abilities wouldn’t be as good as other true gods, like Flora’s divine spirits.

Nevertheless, Nathan had no choice but to upgrade them to true gods later. He was afraid that they would be too weak to even last one second against Yog-Sothoth when they finally encountered it in the future.

After all, even Erlang Shen died because of an ambush from Yog-Sothoth.
