Humans in the primordial world, inscribing the Way of Heaven!

Chapter 276 [Empress Nuwa's Protection, Clear Rewards and Punishments] (Please Subscribe)
Nuwa didn't expect Kunpeng to be completely loyal; it's just that there are some things that even a sage can't do himself, so she needs someone like Kunpeng to handle them!
In this era, she neither wielded the Demon-Summoning Banner nor established a sect. The only ones she could command were a few protectors in Nuwa's Palace. If she were restrained by a certain saint, the role of Kunpeng would become apparent!

As for the promise to protect Kunpeng in the future, that was merely to appease Kunpeng and prevent him from harboring resentment towards her because of what happened today.

After achieving her goal, Nuwa's avatar did not linger, but simply gave Kunpeng a sage's jade talisman that he could contact at any time.

"saint!"

Seeing the sage Nuwa depart, Kunpeng couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

"If you don't become a saint, you'll remain an ant forever!"

However, upon seeing the Taotie Origin in his hand, he revealed a hint of relief: "Fortunately, I encountered Nuwa today! If I had met the two Western Saints, I fear I would have perished! Now, it's a stroke of luck amidst misfortune! At least, the Taotie Origin has fallen into my hands!"

Unlike other cultivators, when he severed his three corpses, he did so using his own original essence because he did not have a suitable innate spiritual treasure.

First, he used his own wind essence to slay the evil corpse Peng Daoren, and then he used his own water essence to slay the benevolent corpse Kun Daoren!
Finally, he used his own Devouring Origin to sever the Obsessive Corpse Devouring Heaven Daoist!

However, this also made Kunpeng's origin extremely weak. In order to unify his three corpses, he had to find a way to strengthen his origin!

This gluttonous origin was the opportunity for enlightenment he encountered while traveling through chaos, and the Great Dao of Devouring contained within it was extremely compatible with him.

If he can refine it, he can use his own essence to forcibly fuse the three corpses!

All three corpses originated from his original source, making it easier for him to unite them into one than for other quasi-saints.

"Retreat!"

Without hesitation, Kunpeng looked directly at the nine great worlds, chose one that pleased him, and prepared to begin refining the Taotie's origin.

He had no intention of returning to the Primordial Realm before his three bodies were united.

However, he also knew that he was a being born from the primordial world, and if he did not return to the primordial true world, it would be difficult for him to attain the status of a Primordial Golden Immortal.

At least……

To eliminate all causes and effects!
Therefore, he was not actually that resistant to Nuwa's recruitment!
……

On the other hand, after Nuwa returned to the Primordial Realm in her incarnation, she did not rush back to the Heavenly Court, but instead prepared to subdue the black dragon first.

To win back the Black Dragon's heart, the incarnation alone is insufficient; only the true form can intervene.

With a thought, Nuwa herself sent down endless rays of creation from the void, and the Great Dao of Life reshaped the bloodline and body of the black dragon.

A moment later, a man in black robes appeared before the Goddess Nuwa and respectfully said, "Nidhogg thanks Goddess Nuwa for her grace of rebirth!"

He was a being born from the resentment of the Taotie. Although he possessed intelligence, he was unable to truly take human form due to the influence of the Taotie Dao.

But it was an easy matter for the Goddess Nuwa to help him transform into human form.

Having witnessed the power of the Goddess Nuwa, he naturally wouldn't be ungrateful; such an opportunity to curry favor with someone so powerful was rare and hard to come by.

"No gift!"

Nuwa nodded in satisfaction, and then bestowed upon him the cultivation methods of the Primordial Realm: "Your true form is a black dragon, black represents mystery, and you possess the art of devouring. From now on, you shall be called Xuan Shi!"

"As for Nidhogg, that world-destroying black dragon, let him be a thing of the past!"

Since she intended for it to fully integrate into the Primordial True World and work for her, Goddess Nuwa naturally wanted to help it sever its ties with the past.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the black dragon immediately bowed respectfully: "Xuan Shi greets Goddess Nuwa!"

This time, Goddess Nuwa didn't say much, but simply asked God Tengshe to guide Xuan Shi's cultivation.

……

On the other side, Xuan Yin was still studying the mysteries of humanity, but he could clearly sense that several other gazes were also falling upon the origin of humanity.

Suddenly, several mysterious marks appeared within the very essence of humanity.

It was those sages who made the move!
The first to make a move was Taiqing Laozi, who established a cause-and-effect relationship with the origin of humanity by using his attainment of the Fuxi Dao Fruit and his status as the leader of the Human Religion.

Next to act was Yuanshi Tianzun, whose manifestation of the causes of all results established connections with the great laws of cause and effect in the human realm.

Seeing the two make their move, Houtu and Zhunti did not hesitate. One used the Great Dao of Reincarnation to establish a connection with the true spirits of all living beings in the primordial world, while the other used the Great Dao of Wisdom to merge with the wisdom of humanity.

The Master of Heaven did not make a move.

He merely used the discerning eye of a sage to perceive the many acquired principles within the human realm, without imitating other sages in leaving their mark on the human realm.

This brand has no impact on humanity now, but once humanity is revived, the saints can use the brand to compete for the authority of humanity.

The sage with the highest authority can naturally take over the position of the sage of humanity.

However, the central part of the Great Dao was still occupied by the imprints of Fuxi and Nuwa, which firmly suppressed the imprints of the other saints.

but……

Xuan Yin saw it clearly: none of them had touched upon the essence of humanity.

Beneath the golden sea of ​​light lies an extremely terrifying power that isolates the inside from the outside, making it impossible for even several sages to reach the core of humanity.

"The power to destroy the Dao!"

Xuan Yin touched this power once with his mind, and felt that his Dao heart was almost lost. Before him appeared eternal silence, darkness and despair. This was the power of the Dao Loss that evolved when the Nine-Headed Clan fell into the calamity of the Dao Loss, and it was also the fundamental power that prevented the sages from using the core of the human Dao.

Without touching the core of humanity, one cannot truly become the master of humanity.

Seeing this, Xuan Yin frowned and asked, "The core of the Dragon Path is that everyone should be like a dragon. What is the core concept or path of the Human Path?"

Although he was not optimistic about the human way evolved by the Nine-Headed Clan, if he could get a glimpse into its essence, it might be very helpful for his ideas on evolving a new human way.

If possible, he would even like to have a face-to-face conversation with the Nine-Headed Clan.

But it's impossible!
The Nine-Headed Clan was trapped in the calamity of losing their way. The imprints of the past became illusions, making it impossible for them to communicate like ordinary Great Luo Immortals.

Other great Luo or Taiyi were three-dimensional and vivid in the past, but the mark left by the Nine-Headed Clan was just a simple mark.

Xuan Yin can go back to the past, but he is completely unable to establish contact with it.

Suddenly, a thought struck him: a magical treasure that Yaochi had mentioned to him, the one that the Nine-Headed Clan used to create the innate five-colored human race and to discuss the Dao with the five emperors of the primordial era—the Altar of Ten Thousand Spirits!
altar!

This is a word with a special meaning.

Since it is an altar, it is used for sacrifices, and there is also an object of sacrifice.

Since the Altar of All Spirits has some connection with the Nine-Headed Clan, is it possible to communicate with them?

Or perhaps, as a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, it is also closely related to the Nine-Headed Clan, and is it imprinted with something related to humanity?
However, Yaochi is still in seclusion and has not yet attained the Fuxi Dao Fruit, so it is unlikely that he will come into contact with the Altar of Ten Thousand Spirits!
"How about I suggest that Fuxi's mark also release a little water into the Jade Pool?"

Xuan Yin originally wanted to delay Yaochi's attainment of enlightenment, but at this moment, he was more interested in exploring the secrets of the Nine-Headed Clan and the origin of humanity.

As for the throne of the human emperor...

Leaving aside the sages for the time being, Zulong and Yuanfeng have both attained the Dao Fruit of Fuxi, so he could have easily abdicated the throne of the Human Emperor to them first.

but……

As the incarnation of the goddess Nuwa, and now bearing his identity, if he were not "Fuxi," then in what identity would he appear in the prehistoric world?
Just as he was filled with doubt and uncertainty, the goddess Nuwa sent a message.

Tell him to go to Taisutian!
Xuan Yin's face lit up with surprise: "Could it be that the incarnation of the Goddess Nuwa has returned?"

He exchanged identities with the incarnation of the goddess Nuwa, becoming "Fuxi," while the incarnation of Nuwa took his identity to become the Heavenly Emperor.

In addition, the incarnation of the goddess Nuwa accepted Kunpeng's invitation on his behalf.

"I wonder how the harvest went?"

With a glimmer of hope, Xuan Yin soon arrived in the Tai Su Heaven, where he saw the Goddess Nuwa instructing a strange cultivator in his practice.

Xuan Yin activated his Eye of Truth and looked around, only to see a black dragon breathing spiritual energy.

but……

It is called a black dragon, but it is not a normal dragon. Instead, it resembles a dragon with wings on its back and exudes an aura that does not belong to the primordial world. Judging from its appearance, it has just come into contact with the immortal path system.

Seeing this, Xuan Yin couldn't help but speak up: "Your Majesty, is this fellow Daoist perhaps an ancient remnant species that you brought back from some realm?"

"No!"

Upon hearing this, Goddess Nuwa immediately shook her head and recounted her experiences on this journey, stating that the Black Dragon was a newly enlightened guardian spirit she had inspired.

"Odin, the World Tree, the Nine Realms, the Black Dragon Nidhogg, Nuwa's Guardian Xuan Shi..."

Suppressing his shock, Xuan Yin slowly said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on gaining a protector!"

Although he had never been to that realm, he had many myths and legends about Odin and the World Tree in his mind.

Long ago, when he was evolving into his other self, he wondered if his future memories might have come from one of his other self.
While comprehending the freedom of other transformations, he once sent ten drops of his essence blood back to the past, one of which happened to fall into the time and space of Nuwa creating humans.

Therefore, he also suspected that his future self had given his past self memories, allowing him to change certain major trends in the Primordial True World!
So far, neither he himself nor his avatars have come into contact with the mythology system related to Odin and the World Tree!
"Is it time travel, or is it my future self who bestowed these memories upon me, or something else entirely?"

Xuan Yin was completely baffled.

Logically speaking, since Da Luo is one, and after the timeline has converged, he shouldn't have such doubts, but he does indeed have such doubts.

But in front of the goddess Nuwa, he could only suppress all his doubts.

Nuwa then said, "I gave the Taotie's origin to Kunpeng, and the World Tree is of great use to me! Therefore, I cannot give you this opportunity!"

"I called you here to Taisutian this time to make up for it in other ways!"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yin immediately replied, "It is my honor to benefit Your Majesty. There is no need for Your Majesty to offer any compensation!"

"loyalty!"

A saint's golden thigh is far more valuable than an ordinary innate spiritual treasure!
"is it?"

Nuwa suddenly laughed: "Then I won't compensate you!"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yin quickly added, "Of course, Your Majesty is fair in rewards and punishments. If there is a reward, it would be inappropriate for this disciple not to accept it! This disciple is fine, but I'm afraid it would affect Your Majesty's reputation!"

"Glib tongue!"

Nuwa chuckled softly, then handed something to Xuan Yin: "This thing might be of some use in perfecting your Wind Origin Dao Fruit!"
