Chapter 176 Nuwa becomes a saint
Nuwa smiled as she reached out to take the precious tripod. The golden phoenix carrying the Qiankun Tripod let out a clear cry towards the sky, circled around Nuwa for a few times, and finally transformed into endless mysterious yellow energy and merged into her body.
These mysterious and yellow energies carried a faint sense of Xuanmen luck, and it was obvious that Hongjun was helping her from a distance.
Attracted by this luck, Nuwa only felt that the primordial purple energy in the Niwan Palace became more and more restless, twisting like a dragon or snake, as if it would take her soul and fly into the endless heaven in the next moment.
In the past, Nuwa would have been ecstatic seeing this scene, but today, she only had a faint smile on her face, as if she didn't care much about it.
Nuwa's mind moved, and the energy of creation that was constantly nurtured in her Qingyun suddenly poured into the Qiankun Ding. The black and white colors outside the Qiankun Ding kept rotating, and the boundless Qiankun energy surged, as if changing according to the master's thoughts, until finally, a Qianyang divine fire was finally lit outside the Qiankun Ding.
Qian is heaven and Kun is earth, the sky is yang and the earth is yin. If you want to change yin into yang, you must either take the path of change from yin to negative, or take the path of converting yang into yin.
Nuwa originally wanted to use her own sacred yin origin to transform the yin energy of nature into yang energy, but she failed in the end. Not only did she fail to transform the yin energy into yang energy, but she led them to a more extreme yin path.
Yin cannot produce anything alone, and Yang cannot grow alone. If these Yin energies of creation were really used to enlighten the human race, their number would always be fixed at three thousand, and would only become less, not more.
It is for this reason that Nuwa chose to use yang to transform yin, rather than continuing to transform the yin energy based on the principle of yin producing yang.
"I just hope it will be quicker. I don't know how long my brothers and the others can hold out, and whether our master can do his best to interfere with the Heavenly Dao."
Looking at the Qiankun Ding that was constantly transforming the Yin energy of creation, Nuwa thought to herself.
If she just wanted to achieve the Dao fruit of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, then she didn't need to create an eternal protagonist. She only needed to create a race to prove that her path of creation was not wrong.
But Hengming felt that this was a rare opportunity. Nowadays, there were very few golden immortals in the prehistoric world. If Nuwa wanted to split the way of heaven, no one could stop her. It was a good opportunity to determine the fate of the eternal protagonist.
According to the trajectory of the operation of the Way of Heaven, there is a protagonist race in every catastrophe, such as the ferocious beast race in the ferocious beast catastrophe; the dragon, phoenix and unicorn races in the dragon and phoenix catastrophe. This catastrophe is naturally the wizard and lich catastrophe, and the races that will be affected are naturally the wizard and lich races. When the next catastrophe begins, there will naturally be a new race to respond to the catastrophe.
So there is no such thing as an eternal protagonist, because it does not exist at all.
Hengming originally thought that the position of the eternal protagonist existed, but the time for it to appear had not yet come, so although he had been planning for it in the past, it was not so urgent.
At least with his and Nuwa's power, they have plenty of ways to suppress other races and bring humanity to the position of eternal protagonist, so when facing other saints with destiny, they tend to make friends with them.
But it was not until he took this step and received the inspiration left by Hongjun in the Mysterious Gate of Heaven and Earth that he realized that it was not that the Eternal Protagonist had not yet had the opportunity to be born, but that the Heavenly Dao had never given birth to the position of the Eternal Protagonist. How could Hengming tolerate this?
If the human race does not have the position of eternal protagonist, then at the beginning of every catastrophe, there will be a new protagonist race to respond to the catastrophe. For him, this is a variable that cannot be controlled at all.
It was for this reason that Hengming had the crazy idea to let Nuwa pray to Hongjun when she created the race, so that this race would become the eternal protagonist of Honghuang and the unchanging protagonist race from then on.
When Hongjun became one with the Heavenly Dao, he had already abandoned all his own thoughts and wisdom and immersed himself wholeheartedly into the Heavenly Dao. It was for this reason that the Heavenly Dao allowed Hongjun to comprehend the great way of original force.
The reason why Hongjun risked losing himself to integrate into the Heavenly Dao was for the sake of these great ways of original force.
But as long as one is a cultivator, he will not tolerate the disappearance of his own wisdom and self-annihilation. He will naturally come up with many ways to maintain himself, and Hongjun is no exception.
After Nuwa began to create the eternal protagonist, she must have carried the great trend of the ancient times with her. At that time, she already had the power to influence the heaven and earth.
If Nuwa had prayed to Hongjun instead of Heaven at this time, then with Nuwa's help, Hongjun would have had the opportunity to break free from Heaven's shackles and restore himself. Also, because he had been in charge of the world for many years on behalf of Heaven, he also had the power to influence Heaven, thus establishing his position as the eternal protagonist.
Nuwa had originally rejected this proposal outright, simply because the Heavenly Dao was vast and controlled the source of all the power of Pangu during his lifetime, and it was simply not something that they, the Hunyuan Golden Immortals, could challenge. Even if Hongjun himself was a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal and was in harmony with the Heavenly Dao, there was no possibility of him fighting against the Heavenly Dao.
But Hengming said, "It's not that we don't have the possibility of winning. When Master gave me the Mysterious Gate of Heaven and Earth, he placed a willow branch inside it. I only opened it recently, you see."
Not until she saw Hengming take out the willow branch with her own eyes did Nuwa agree with the idea.
This was because there was a ray of power attached to this willow branch that only the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian possessed, which reminded her of an ancestor who was still alive after entering the Zhuxian Sword Formation.
Only when two Hunyuan Daluo Jinxians stood behind them did Nuwa feel that there was hope that it might be realized.
As long as there was this glimmer of hope, it was enough for her to take a gamble.
Time passed quickly, and after nine days, the tightly closed Qiankun Ding finally opened its lid. A yang energy as purple as the rising sun gushed out, and Nuwa also spewed out a yin energy to match it.
Yin and Yang intersected, Tongji coexisted, black and white continued to blend, but there was always a trace of power that could not be completely integrated. Seeing this, Nuwa immediately threw out another piece of Xirang and a stream of Sanguang Shenshui. Inspired by these two divine objects, the Yin and Yang Qi finally completely merged into one, and in the center, a wisp of five-colored Qi appeared faintly.
It is the energy of the five elements.
Yin and Yang and the Five Elements are inseparable. The Five Elements are divided into Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang transform into the Five Elements. When Yin and Yang reach their extreme, the Five Elements will begin to evolve.
Nuwa didn't wait for the five elements to be nurtured here, and immediately stretched out her hand to disperse the yin and yang energy in the sky. Then she saw the black and white energy floating in the sky like swimming fish, and finally separated into 1,500 strands and merged into the Taoist body below.
After being enlightened by the yin and yang energies, these Taoist bodies immediately separated into male and female. Their originally dull expressions immediately turned into lively and agile. Their internal cultivation was also not weak, and they were all at the level of celestial beings, which was already considered quite good.
It should be noted that even a top-level innate sacred being like Hengming Nuwa was only a Golden Immortal when she first transformed. Above the Heavenly Immortal is the Divine Immortal, above the Divine Immortal is the Mysterious Immortal, and above the Mysterious Immortal is the Golden Immortal. It can be seen that the potential of the human race at this time is as high as that of some innate races.
As soon as these humans were transformed, they kowtowed to Nuwa as if they had spirits, prostrated themselves on the ground, and shouted, "Thank you, Holy Mother, for giving me life and wisdom."
They were all created by Nuwa, so naturally they recognized Nuwa as their mother. However, Nuwa had a high level of cultivation and would not tolerate being offended by others, so the human race could only call Nuwa the Holy Mother.
Nuwa did not care about the kowtows of these humans. She just felt that the number of three thousand was too small. Although it was the number of the Great Dao, for an eternal protagonist, this number was really not worth mentioning.
After all, even a race like the Witch Clan, which has difficulty reproducing, has over 100 million members, not to mention the human race she created, which naturally has more. Otherwise, if they become extinct in the future, there would not be such a good opportunity as today to create an eternal protagonist.
However, she was unwilling to let Nuwa slowly use mud and water to create the human race. After all, after these humans became spiritual, she felt that her cultivation had already reached the last step and she did not want to waste time again.
Nuwa looked around, and finally looked at the gourd vine that Hengming had brought with the divine soil. She couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother, you really have a plan. Well, since you want to give you an opportunity, I will grant you your wish."
The gourd vine seemed to have a spirit and trembled slightly. Then a faint green air emanated from the slightly withered vines.
This energy is the vitality of Jia and Yi green wood. It takes the true meaning of wood's growth and is best at spreading endlessly and endlessly. It is the last source of the gourd vine.
It is just right for Nuwa to create more human beings.
Nuwa picked up the vine and waved it towards the sky. Countless vitality emerged from it. Anything that was passed by the vitality came back to life like a dead tree coming back to life in spring. She couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
After looking at the nearby terrain, Nuwa moved lightly with lotus steps and came to a pond, and the human beings also hurriedly followed Nuwa's footsteps. After all, the primitive world was in chaos at that time. Although they had the cultivation of celestial beings, they were only treated as food, so they naturally had to follow Nuwa's steps closely.
Nuwa poured all the five-colored divine soil and three-light divine water in her hand into the pond. The originally clear pond was immediately covered with yellow soil and turned into a huge quagmire.
Nuwa shook the gourd vine in her hand and hit the mud in front of her. Thousands of rays of light flashed, and the meaning of creation spread. The gourd vine showed thousands of silk threads, stirring the yellow mud, and countless life-giving energy wrapped in mud and water and threw them into the sky.
A moment later, countless mud and water fell from the sky. Every drop of mud and water that landed on the ground turned into a human. In just a blink of an eye, tens of thousands of human beings were created.
It’s just that these humans are slightly different from the humans that Nuwa created with her own hands.
These human beings were thrown out by Nuwa using the gourd vine, and the first three thousand human beings were transformed by Nuwa's hands. They were naturally influenced by the Tao essence of Nuwa and had a hint of Nuwa's aura, making them natural human leaders.
Nuwa swung the whip three thousand times in a row until the last drop of mud and water turned into a human being, then she slowly stood up.
Before Nuwa could figure out how to settle these human beings, several thunders were heard in the void. The vast world that was originally wrapped in endless black clouds was broken by countless rays of light. Streams of purple air descended from the sky, auspicious clouds and auspicious light spread, and the sounds of ghosts crying and gods howling were all suppressed.
The strange phenomena spread throughout the entire prehistoric world, on the same scale as the ones that occurred when Hongjun became a saint. This was the heaven and earth announcing that a cultivator had transcended and achieved the eternal and immortal Hunyuan Daluo Dao Fruit.
Nuwa couldn't help but be stunned, and then she suddenly realized that she had finally taken the last step and achieved the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.
The heaven and earth shook, and spontaneously evolved a Dharma image with a human head and a snake body. This Dharma image had divine power and a compassionate face. Above its head, there were clouds of celebration from the creation of the universe to the heavens and the earth. It interpreted the true meaning of creation for all living beings. The sun and the moon flew in the sky, leading the stars to release infinite starlight to illuminate the vast world.
The ethereal fairy music was melodious, and the carefree fairy song was floating in the wind. All living beings knelt on the ground and shouted: "Congratulations to the goddess Nuwa for achieving the Hunyuan Daluo Dao Fruit!"
At this moment, no matter where the battle was, it all stopped when Nuwa achieved the status of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.
