Merits, endless merits. It had been so many years since the last merit had come. It was not comparable with the merit when all Sages were born, but there were really almost the same, of which 80 percent belonged to Wu Tian and 20 percent were divided equally between Minghe and Zhunti, as a result of Minghe helping to speed up the birth of Way of Demon and Zhunti for gestating it.
Wu Tian had absorbed many Sage origins from Zhunti, and once after the birth, he accomplished the cultivation at the early stage of the Sage. Anyhow, it was a Sage after all. What was even more peculiar, Wu Tian and Zhunti enjoyed the same Hong Meng Immortal Qi. Therefore, Wu Tian was a Sage, not a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of Origin.
