Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

"This baby girl is so beautiful and cute! Let's name her Fengwa!"

"Thank you, Goddess Nuwa, for bestowing this name upon us." Fengwa's mother was overjoyed to receive such praise from Goddess Nuwa. She knew that while other families named their children themselves, their family was the first to have a name bestowed upon them by Goddess Nuwa!

Chapter 1021 Encountering the Gap Again

"Congratulations! You've been bestowed a name by the Goddess Nuwa!" Upon hearing that Nuwa had named the baby Fengwa, everyone came to offer their congratulations. This was an immense honor, making them both envious and jealous.

"Thank you everyone, why don't you have dinner with us today!" The male host was very excited after learning that his daughter had been given a name by Nuwa, so he happily invited everyone to stay at his home for dinner.

Of course, Li Xiuyuan and Nuwa were happy to participate. After this incident, Nuwa found that Li Xiuyuan's gaze was becoming more and more intense, which made her feel very shy. She didn't know why she would think of that aspect whenever she saw Li Xiuyuan. She wished she could have a baby with him.

"My dear disciple, why is your face red?" Li Xiuyuan and Nuwa were invited to the seats of honor. Li Xiuyuan noticed that the little girl was secretly looking at him, and her face was flushed. He knew what she was thinking at a glance, and Li Xiuyuan's heart was filled with joy.

"No." After Li Xiuyuan's reminder, the girl quickly looked away, lowered her head, and felt her face burning with embarrassment! Fortunately, her master didn't know what she was thinking.

"Here, eat this." Li Xiuyuan put a piece of meat in Nuwa's bowl, but found that Nuwa was staring at the meat again, neither eating nor saying anything.

"Hey, why aren't you eating?" Li Xiuyuan asked Nuwa. Before she could answer, he picked up another piece of meat and held it to her lips.

Nuwa subconsciously parted her red lips and ate the meat from her mouth. Only after finishing did she realize that Li Xiuyuan had put the meat on her plate. Feeling shy, she turned around and ran out.

Looking at the shy Nuwa, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but laugh! Nuwa's reaction was truly adorable!

After Nuwa ran out, a familiar voice called out to her: "Sister Nuwa, where have you been?"

Fuxi searched the Hope World but couldn't find Nuwa, so he left the Hope World and came to the Chaos World. After arriving here, he found that there were many more people here, just like in the Hope World, but they had no spiritual power in their bodies.

Without even guessing, he knew that the humans were created by his sister Nuwa. Sure enough, as he expected, his sister Nuwa had already left the World of Hope. After a long period of inquiries and asking around, he finally encountered Nuwa here.

When Li Xiuyuan chased after them, he saw Fuxi and Nuwa standing together discussing something. Sigh! This man is really persistent; he's always there wherever he goes.

Of course, he didn't think that Fuxi left the World of Hope because of him. He could clearly see that Fuxi's feelings for Nuwa were not just those of a brother and sister, but rather the deep affection between a man and a woman hidden in his eyes.

Unfortunately, the naive Nuwa could never have imagined that her brother had fallen in love with him.

However, it is clear that Nuwa has feelings for him, while her feelings for Fuxi are purely those of a brother and sister. But Fuxi cannot see this, as he has always believed that his sister loves him as much as he loves her.

"Fuxi! What brings you here?" Li Xiuyuan walked up to Fuxi with a smile.

"Master, why did you bring Sister Nuwa here? What if we encounter danger?" Perhaps it was an instinctive reaction, but Fuxi already had a sense of wariness towards Li Xiuyuan.

"Nuwa has been staying in the World of Hope for a long time and wanted to come out for a stroll, so I led Nuwa out for a stroll." It seems that Fuxi already suspects the two of them, but what does it matter?

Li Xiuyuan led Nuwa and Fuxi on a journey through the chaotic world. At this time, the Honggou Ancestor had just comprehended the Dao and ascended to the Heavenly Dao Realm. After his comprehension, he invited people from all over the world to Zixiao Palace to give a lecture.

On his way to Zixiao Palace to preach, Honggou Patriarch encountered Li Xiuyuan, who was traveling around the world. At this time, both Honggou Patriarch and Li Xiuyuan had traveled to the prehistoric world.

Therefore, when the Honggou Patriarch encountered Li Xiuyuan, he even abandoned his subsequent sermons, solely to kill Li Xiuyuan.

He originally thought he was lucky to have survived, but who knew that he would see the person he least wanted to see in this interface? This time he wouldn't be so lucky, and he wouldn't be let off so easily. Li Xiuyuan must die.

Li Xiuyuan's cultivation had reached a bottleneck, so when the Honggou Ancestor discovered him, he didn't notice him immediately. It wasn't until the Honggou Ancestor's attack reached him that Li Xiuyuan reacted.

"Fuxi, Nuwa, you two should leave this world first." Li Xiuyuan's expression was serious. He was not as confident as the Ancestor Honggou. He knew that since he was able to cross over to Honggou, the Ancestor Honggou had likely crossed over with him as well.

Although the two did not travel to the same place, he knew that the Ancestor of the Honggou Valley must have also traveled here. Judging from the palm strike just now, he could tell that there was no one else with such high abilities besides the Ancestor of the Honggou Valley.

At the very least, in this world, apart from the Ancestor of the Honggou, no one can rival him.

"Ancestor Honggou, you couldn't kill me in that world, do you think you can still kill me in this world?" Li Xiuyuan looked at Ancestor Honggou with disdain. So what if his abilities were slightly higher than his? He still managed to fight him to a draw.

Some people always think they are invincible, but they don't know the principle that there are always people better than you and mountains beyond mountains. Honggou Laozu was such an arrogant person.

What Li Xiuyuan didn't expect was that when the Honggou Ancestor transmigrated here, he obtained an opportunity that enhanced his strength and granted him some other abilities. Even Li Xiuyuan couldn't gain any advantage over the Honggou Ancestor.

"Li Xiuyuan, you won't be so lucky this time!" The Hongyun Ancestor hated Li Xiuyuan with a passion. He considered himself the ancestor of heaven and earth, and no one was his match. If anyone was stronger than him, he had to kill them to eliminate any future troubles.

"Ancestor Honggou, you..." Before Li Xiuyuan could finish speaking, Ancestor Honggou launched an attack on him, and Li Xiuyuan quickly turned to dodge.

Chapter 1022 Li Xiuyuan Loses His Magic Power

"Li Xiuyuan, you can't escape." The Honggou Ancestor was overjoyed, his eyes revealing an indescribable happiness.

"Ancestor Honggou, don't get too cocky!" Li Xiuyuan summoned his World-Destroying Black Lotus, his eyes full of vigilance. In just a few hundred years, Ancestor Honggou had made tremendous progress. Everyone knew that for cultivators, the higher the level, the more difficult it was to advance further.

"Hahahaha... Li Xiuyuan, enough nonsense, prepare to die!" The Honggou Ancestor couldn't help but laugh loudly, as if Li Xiuyuan had already been killed under his feet, but Li Xiuyuan would soon die too.

His cultivation was only slightly higher than his, but there was an insurmountable gap between them. At this moment, the Ancestor looked at Li Xiuyuan as if he were looking at a dead man. If looks could kill, Li Xiuyuan would have died countless times already.

The battle between the Honggou Ancestor and Li Xiuyuan lasted for hundreds of years. Although Li Xiuyuan's power was lower than that of the Honggou Ancestor, he had many treasures! However, no matter how many treasures he had, he could barely withstand the absolute power. After hundreds of years of fighting, Li Xiuyuan felt that he was about to die countless times.

Although he possessed many treasures, the power he wielded was far less than that of the Honggou Ancestor. Therefore, for hundreds of years, the Honggou Ancestor continued to suppress Li Xiuyuan.

As Li Xiuyuan gradually exhausted his spiritual power, the Honggou Ancestor also realized that the difference between the two of them was the spiritual power in their bodies, so he kept using delaying tactics. Li Xiuyuan wanted to finish the battle quickly, but unfortunately, the strength of the two sides was far apart.

"Ah!" When Li Xiuyuan summoned the World-Destroying Black Lotus again, it was broken by the Ancestor of the Honggou Valley. Li Xiuyuan was also knocked to the ground by the residual force, and a bloody taste rose in his throat.

"Li Xiuyuan, how about it? Today is your death day. Is there anything else you want to say?" The Honggou Ancestor looked down at Li Xiuyuan on the ground. He was no longer able to resist.

It can be seen that Li Xiuyuan's magical power had long been exhausted, but he had been struggling to hold on until just now when he could no longer bear it and collapsed to the ground. However, once he collapsed, he lost his ability to attack, so the Honggou Ancestor's vigilance was relatively reduced.

"Ding! The system has detected danger to the host. After careful calculation, the system has determined that the host has only one way to survive. Please make a choice." The system's loud voice rang in his mind, startling Li Xiuyuan.

"What choice?" Even though the situation was extremely dangerous, Li Xiuyuan still wanted to find out the details. If it wasn't worthwhile, then they couldn't possibly get along.

"Host, please choose quickly! You are about to be killed." The system simply didn't have time to answer Li Xiuyuan's question, because time was too tight; the ancestor would launch an attack on Li Xiuyuan in the next second.

"System, you..." Li Xiuyuan was interrupted by the system before he could finish speaking.

"Ding! The host has successfully escaped danger. This choice will consume all points, merit points, and sin points. Please accept this as a condolence, as anything is possible while you are alive."

Li Xiuyuan was speechless. Before he could react, the palm of the Ancestor of the Honggou passed by his ear, and the next second he was teleported to the World of Hope.

For hundreds of years, people have been waiting for the Honggou Ancestor to preach, but he has not come. Yet no one complains, because no one can understand the Dao. They all hope that the Honggou Ancestor can bring them great opportunities.

Nuwa and Fuxi waited for Li Xiuyuan in the Hope World for hundreds of years, but a hundred years ago they left the Hope World because they could not wait for Li Xiuyuan.

Nuwa suggested that they go to find their master, Li Xiuyuan. Fuxi originally didn't want to go, but he couldn't resist her persistent pleading. After all, she was the person he cherished most in his heart.

Nuwa and Fuxi left the "World of Hope" and came to the Chaos World. By this time, the people in the world had changed several times, and the Chaos World was more prosperous. However, there were few people they recognized, as the rest had all been born, aged, sick, and died.

Only a few people who saw Nuwa's magic were fascinated and devoted themselves to cultivation, extending their lifespan by several hundred years, but even they had little life left.

Nuwa then taught the remaining people cultivation techniques. In order to repay Nuwa, they told Nuwa and Fuxi about the teachings of the Honggou Ancestor.

Although they really wanted to go, they were not capable enough. The Purple Cloud Palace was not a place that nobodies like them could just go to.

Nuwa and Fuxi were very curious after hearing this, and wondered if they might see their master again. The two rushed to the Zixiao Cloud Palace. Another hundred years passed, and the palace was full of people, but the figure of the Honggou Ancestor was nowhere to be seen.

When the Honggou Ancestor defeated Li Xiuyuan and rushed to the Zixiao Cloud Palace, the store was already full of people, and many people were standing outside the palace. All of these people had come to listen to his sermon. Thinking of this, he felt very proud.

"Ahem, thank you all for coming from afar to hear my sermon. Please be quiet for a moment..." The Ancestor of Honggou cleared his throat and released a layer of pressure on the people below. This single layer of pressure made everyone feel breathless, short of breath, and have a sweet taste in their throats. This was the cultivation level after comprehending the Dao.

Everyone's eyes revealed longing and admiration for the strong, and some even felt a surge of excitement, wanting to possess such power as well.

And so, a group of people listened quietly to the preaching of the Hongyun Ancestor in the hall, but Li Xiuyuan was not so lucky.

After being rescued from the Chaos World by the system and arriving in the Hope World, Li Xiuyuan had no magical power left, so he specifically checked his attribute panel.

While the Ancestor of the Honggou was preaching, Li Xiuyuan stayed alone in the Hope Space to cultivate. Because he had memories of his previous life's cultivation, he did not have any difficulty in cultivating. In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years had passed, and Li Xiuyuan's strength had returned to its peak. He was quite satisfied with his cultivation speed, which was much faster than in his previous life.

Li Xiuyuan also discovered that after starting his cultivation anew, his physical strength and comprehension were much more malleable than in his previous life, making him incredibly shrewd and adaptable.

Li Xiuyuan had been in the secret chamber for tens of thousands of years, maintaining the same posture with almost no movement. On this day, as usual, he meditated and adjusted his breathing, putting away his hands. His strength was almost there, and he needed sufficient strength to advance further.

Having been reborn and starting his cultivation anew, he found his mind to be even more resolute. The obstacles that had hindered his advancement in his previous life had also disappeared. It could be said that Li's cultivation was a blessing in disguise.

"Our sermon is now nearing its end. I will now pass on my seven strands of Primordial Purple Qi to everyone." Ancestor Hongjun looked at everyone with pride. Everyone was listening attentively to his sermon, even though he had mixed in a lot of miscellaneous things.

Now he will pass on his seven strands of Primordial Purple Qi to the first seven listeners, so that they can use them for his own purposes in the future. With this thought, Ancestor Hongjun waved his whisk, and seven rays of colorful light shone from the whisk onto the six people sitting below.

When Hongjun began his sermon, the seating arrangement was as follows: First was Laozi, one of the Three Pure Ones; second was Yuanshi Tianzun; third was Tongtian Daoren; fourth was Amitabha Buddha, the guide; fifth was Zhunti Daoren, the Bodhi Patriarch; sixth was Nuwa; and seventh was Fuxi. The other beings had no seats.

Originally, Fuxi was in Nuwa's seat, but because Nuwa didn't get the seat, Fuxi gave it to her. Later, after Hongyun gave up her seat, the seventh seat became empty, so Fuxi sat in the seventh seat.

Therefore, when the teachings were passed down again, Hongjun Laozu passed on the Primordial Qi to the first few. He wanted to protect Hongyun, but Hongyun had given up his seat and still couldn't get the seventh seat. Hongjun Laozu didn't dare to be too obvious.

Moreover, after experiencing the next generation, he also knew that these people in the previous positions were not simple. Thinking of the powerful forces behind them, Hongjun Ancestor decided to abandon Hongyun and pass on the seventh Zi Meng Qi to Fuxi.

"Thank you for the protection of Ancestor Hongjun!" The crowd knelt down, feeling proud. Ancestor Hongjun's realm was beyond their wildest imagination, so no one would disobey his orders.
