Honghuang: The Cautious Golden Crow Refuses to Become the Demon Emperor

[No conspiracy theories + anti-trope + steady-paced] He transmigrates into the Primordial World, fuses with the origins of Di Jun and Tai Yi, and becomes the one and only Golden Crow. Born under Heaven’s mandate, he carries the fortune of the Sun Star. Just then, the Dragon-Han Star Tribulation comes to an end and the conflict between the Dao and the Demonic Path concludes, but an even more devastating calamity is brewing between Heaven and Earth. The Wu and Yao clans are fighting for supremacy? Ling Xiao says, let whoever wants to fight go ahead! The Sages are immortal and indestructible? The sun is eternal, and so am I! He avoids the karmic burden of the calamity and focuses on plotting to accumulate merit. The Primordial World isn’t just about fighting and killing. It’s also about human relationships and navigating the ways of the world! He guides Zhen Yuanzi in arranging the earth’s veins and mapping its mountains and rivers, turning the Earth Book into the Classic of Mountains and Seas; He guides King Father of the East in organizing the immortals and establishing order in the Immortal Path, turning his jade book into the Register of Ten Thousand Immortals. He joins forces with the Ziwei Star Lord to establish order in the movements of the stars, and guides the Four Seas Dragon Clan in regulating the rivers, lakes, and seas. He helps Houtu perfect the underworld’s system, and joins forces with Xihe and Changxi to establish the seasons and the twenty-four solar terms... Ling Xiao never takes sides. He simply focuses on perfecting the world and elevating the Primordial World. After all, sunlight doesn’t choose sides. It shines impartially through the darkness and blesses all things. But a thousand years later, Ling Xiao realizes that something seems wrong. Why does his Heavenly Dao merit keep growing the more he uses? And after the Earthly Dao and Human Dao are established in turn, completing the Three Powers of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity and elevating the Primordial World, Great Dao merit blankets the Primordial Starry Sky. Hongjun even offers to step down and yield his position on the spot!
