Nuwa Becomes a Saint
Chapter 72 Nuwa Becomes a Saint
It is hundreds of millions of miles away from the coast of the East China Sea.
Life never ceases here, and creation never stops.
The rising energy shines brightly.
Under Gui Xuan's sermons, a whole cycle passed in the blink of an eye.
Another woman dressed in black appeared beside Nuwa, holding the Map of Mountains and Rivers. She bowed slightly to Guixuan and then disappeared.
As a result, Nuwa's aura surged to its peak, reaching the perfect state of Quasi-Saint.
"Thank you, Dao Ancestor!"
Nuwa slowly opened her eyes, which shimmered with colorful light.
"The primordial purple energy is stirring, and I have sensed the opportunity to attain enlightenment, but I am still lacking some triggers."
"only···"
Nuwa hesitated several times, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
Gui Xuan smiled. "You're not reconciled."
"I am unwilling to be just a sage of the primordial heavenly way, bound to the primordial earth, and become material to complete the operation of the heavenly way."
Nuwa gave a wry smile, "I beg the Dao Ancestor to bestow upon us the law!"
Gui Xuan said, "The Dao spoken of by that Dao Ancestor is entirely the law of Heaven. Now that the Dao of Heaven is gradually perfecting, if one tries to break through the limit, Heaven will be furious. You should be prepared."
Nuwa's expression was resolute: "The primordial spirit of a Heavenly Sage resides within the Heavenly Dao, living as long as Heaven and Earth, immortal and indestructible."
"Dao Ancestor, but what if this primordial world is destroyed!"
"The chaotic world could be split open by Pangu, who created the primordial world with his own body; if the primordial world were to disappear, it would be the same. We sages could only watch the world perish and then vanish as well."
"This is not the path I want!"
Prevention is better than cure; there is no end to the pursuit of knowledge.
This is the path that Nuwa sought to pursue.
Instead of being confined to a cage-like world where people are manipulated.
Returning to the profound silence.
After a long while, he slowly said, "But this only deepens the karmic ties between us once again."
"I am at odds with your master, and we will inevitably clash again sooner or later; how will you handle this?"
Nuwa chuckled softly, "What he plotted was nothing more than the boundless fortune within us, and now his plan has succeeded."
"They also intend to designate us as divinely ordained saints, to share the primordial karma with him and shield us from calamities; I do not know why they are plotting this, but if we are talking about the karma between master and disciple, the karma between you and me is ahead of his."
Nuwa refers to the time before she and Fuxi took human form and preached the Dao at Mount Guixuan Buzhou.
These causes and effects indeed occurred before Hongjun.
Gui Xuan nodded. "Since you have such lofty ambitions, then I will grant your wish."
To break free from this calamity and change his fate, he must become an enemy of the primordial saints.
This was his origin as a Chaos Demon God, a scheme devised by Hongjun, which had already been set in stone.
The Six Sages of the Primordial Era were all disciples of that old man. Given his personality, he would use the name of master and disciple to coerce the Six Sages, and sooner or later he would fight them.
He asked that question just now to see Nuwa's attitude.
After all, he was a human in his previous life, so he still had to give some face to the Holy Mother of Humanity.
If I accidentally kill someone, that would be a bit embarrassing.
It now seems that Nuwa already had a plan in mind, so she no longer delayed.
With a flick of the finger, several items appeared on the ground.
Innate gourd vine, innate life soil, and the divine water of the three lights!
Upon seeing the three items on the ground, Nuwa's primordial purple aura suddenly erupted.
Her chance to become a saint has finally arrived!
Little did he know that he had almost been sentenced to death by Gui Xuan.
"Many thanks to Dao Ancestor Guixuan!"
Nuwa looked grateful.
"Almost there." Gui Xuan's fingertip circulated the power of the laws, and a law of the Great Dao of Life appeared at his fingertip and entered Nuwa's body.
"Using the laws of the Great Dao as the key, only when the opportunity arrives will there be a slight chance to break free from the cage."
As the laws of the Great Dao entered her body, Nuwa trembled and her eyes went blank.
A series of laws permeated his entire body.
The laws of the Great Dao of Life penetrated deep into her body, drawing out a trace of the laws of the Great Dao of Creation within her.
Only after the laws of the Great Dao of Life were integrated into her own body did Nuwa regain her senses.
He then bowed towards the location where Gui Xuan had been, saying, "Respectfully bidding farewell to Dao Ancestor Gui Xuan!"
Then, with a wave of his hand, he picked up the things on the ground.
Although she already knows what her path to enlightenment is, she still needs some time to put her path into practice.
Gui Xuan nodded.
With his guidance, Nuwa will become a saint sooner than the legend says.
I wonder if the new humans will be born as apes, just like in the legends.
Finally, step by step, they grew into true humans.
"Your Tao is creation; what is creation? What is life?"
Gui Xuan's voice was deep and resonant, "You have basically traversed this vast and desolate land."
"Didn't you gain any insights?"
Nuwa's eyes gleamed as she recalled the past.
"The Lich and Demon races are too ambitious, both attempting to unify the prehistoric world and achieve their own goals, resulting in boundless slaughter and the devastation of life."
Nuwa's voice was cold, "It's not a good thing for either of these races to occupy the prehistoric world."
"Instead of this, I shall use the body of Pangu as a model to create a new race!"
boom!
As she spoke, Nuwa unleashed her powerful aura.
Connecting with the opportunities of heaven and earth.
One after another, the laws of creation permeated the surrounding billions of miles, instantly attracting the attention of countless powerful beings from the primordial era.
In the Kunlun Mountains, the Three Pure Ones suddenly changed color.
In the Western world, Jieyin and Zhunti looked completely bewildered.
The Heavenly Court and the Witch Clan were all flying rapidly towards this place.
Nuwa's three corpses appeared, each holding a gourd vine, innate soil, and the Three Lights Divine Water, their auras soaring into the sky.
"I will create an eternal protagonist!"
Click!
The Three Lights Divine Water merged into the Primordial Breath Soil, radiating boundless light of creation.
Nuwa squeezed out three drops of her own blood essence and mixed them into it.
Gui Xuan, who was silently watching Nuwa create humans, suddenly had a strange thought in his mind, and his eyes widened in confusion: "The blood of a sage, to be passed down forever?"
Snapped!
The innate gourd vine transformed into a slender whip, which Nuwa held in her hand and lashed at the innate soil mixed with the divine water of the three lights.
One by one, tiny figures fell to the ground, gradually growing larger until they reached the size of normal people in later generations.
His eyes were innocent, and his aura was pure.
In the blink of an eye, as Nuwa swiftly swung her long whip, 129,600 male humans appeared.
Nuwa frowned as she looked at the male humans on the ground.
He cracked the whip again.
One hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred female humans continued to appear.
boom!
Purple energy spread across billions of miles of the primordial land, and a powerful pressure appeared throughout the land.
Nuwa merged her three corpses into one, and purple energy rose from her body, instantly transforming her into her true form: a human head and a snake's body, floating in the void.
"By the will of Heaven, I, Nuwa, feel that Heaven and Earth are incomplete. In accordance with the will of Heaven, I create the human race today. May Heaven bear witness!"
Flowers rained down from the sky, and golden lotuses sprang from the ground.
Golden rays of light fell from the sky, merging with boundless power of merit.
Some of it fell on the human race, and some fell on the long whip in Nuwa's hand.
The remaining portion was divided in two, with 30% going to Guixuan and 70% to Nuwa.
Nuwa has become a saint!
Chant!
The cry of a phoenix echoed in the void.
A golden phoenix flew out of the void, carrying a huge ball of Heavenly Merit in its mouth, and flew to Nuwa's side.
Nuwa felt something, took the merit from the golden phoenix, and flew to sit cross-legged on the phoenix.
Colorful auspicious clouds swirled around her, and a golden halo hovered behind Nuwa's head.
"Greetings, Holy Mother!!"
The newly born human race suddenly awoke and bowed in worship.
Auspicious omens rise, and divine light descends.
The innate spiritual energy transformed in the primordial sky into rare and exotic beasts that roamed the primordial land.
Heaven and earth, and all living beings, felt moved and bowed in reverence.
Congratulations to the Goddess Nuwa on her attainment of sainthood!
"Congratulations on the arrival of the new saint!"
Nuwa frowned as she looked at the newly born human race on the ground.
"For the next 100,000 years, no race shall disturb the human race!"
The sage spoke with divine insight, causing countless ancient races to tremble in their hearts.
His idea of investigating the human race was instantly extinguished.
After doing all this, Nuwa looked at Guixuan.
I should have kept quiet, because once I saw it, I was utterly shocked.
Having already become a saint and entered the realm of the Primordial Golden Immortal, she still couldn't see through the Gui Xuan.
The other person stood before her, seemingly ethereal, yet also like the very essence of nature.
"The teacher said he hasn't become a saint yet, so why is he even more powerful than a saint? Is the fourth method of enlightenment really as worthless as the teacher says?"
For a moment, all sorts of doubts arose in Nuwa's mind.
Just as she was about to speak, a golden light appeared in the east, and the sound of Buddhist chants resounded.
"Greetings to the Dao Ancestor Guixuan!"
The Buddhist patriarch Hongyun appeared here, saying, "Congratulations to Nuwa on her attainment of sainthood!"
Nuwa remained calm, saying, "You're too kind, Ancestral Buddha Hongyun."
She and Hongyun were both disciples of the Daoist Master Hongjun in the Zixiao Palace, but she was a disciple of the Daoist Master Hongjun, while Hongyun was not.
Logically speaking, she should be Hongyun's senior sister; however, she became a saint much earlier than him and also revered the Dao Ancestor Guixuan.
Faced with the conflict between the two Dao Ancestors, Nuwa could not afford to get too close to them.
Hongyun didn't care; he had come here to celebrate the birth of the sage.
Let's also take a look at the new race that can enable a quasi-saint to attain enlightenment.
This discovery was astonishing; Hongyun was overjoyed.
This human race actually has a great connection with Buddhism.
"Dao Ancestor, this..."
Puzzled, Hongyun looked at the Dao Ancestor Guixuan beside her.
Gui Xuan understood Hong Yun's problem perfectly well, but he couldn't say anything in front of Nuwa, so he could only shake his head slightly.
"Congratulations, Junior Sister, on achieving sainthood!"
The Three Pure Ones flew here from Kunlun Mountain and felt very uncomfortable looking at Nuwa, whose holy power permeated the sky.
But faced with reality, they had no choice but to bow their heads.
The appearance of two sages in succession made the Three Pure Ones, who had not yet found the opportunity to become sages, begin to doubt who was the true descendant of Pangu.
Along with the Three Pure Ones, the Western Amitabha and Cundi also appeared.
With a sorrowful expression, he said, "Congratulations on your attainment of sainthood, Senior Sister."
How come his luck in the East is so strong!
Nuwa nodded and spoke.
"Ten thousand years from now, I will establish a Daoist temple in the chaos. I invite you all to come and witness the ceremony."
After setting up a barrier spanning billions of miles, Nuwa said to Guixuan, "Thank you for your guidance, Dao Ancestor Guixuan!"
Having said that, the golden phoenix beneath him flapped its wings and flew into the chaos beyond the heavens.
The Three Pure Ones, Jieyin, and Zhunti were so shocked by Nuwa's last words that they were speechless.
Was Nuwa's attainment of sainthood guided by the Daoist Ancestor Guixuan?
Guiding two sages to sainthood, this...
Thinking of this, the five divinely ordained saints couldn't help but look at Gui Xuan.
"We humbly request the Daoist Ancestor to bestow upon us the Dharma!"
Thank you all for your support, I am deeply grateful!
