Nuwa Becomes a Saint

The Empress Nuwa extended her finger, and a drop of blood, like crimson jade, appeared. It exuded an intoxicating fragrance, causing the plants in the valley to grow wildly under its influence.

Nuwa flicked her finger, and the blood droplet floated towards the Qiankun Cauldron, entering it to merge with the Breathing Soil and the Three Lights Divine Water.

Fuxi's eyes widened, and he exclaimed subconsciously, "Sister, that's your essence blood!" He said anxiously, "With your essence blood used for enlightenment, they will be considered your children. From now on, their fate will be linked to yours. If anything were to happen to them..."

"It's fine. I will plan a glorious future for them," Empress Nuwa replied calmly. Her beautiful eyes gazed at the Qiankun Cauldron. After a moment, the Qiankun Cauldron shone brilliantly, emitting seven-colored divine light.

Nuwa revealed a radiant smile. It was done.

As the flames within the Qiankun Cauldron dispersed, a mass of yellow mud floated within.

Nuwa reached in and grabbed a clump of mud. She gently molded it in her hand. After a while, a small figure appeared in her hand. She tossed the small figure onto the ground. Upon landing, it grew larger, the mud turning flesh-colored. Its eyes sparkled with life. It was a woman who, upon birth, already possessed the cultivation of a Heavenly Immortal and had her intellect opened.

The woman prostrated herself on the ground and exclaimed emotionally, "Greetings, Mother Goddess."

Nuwa looked at her and joyfully said, "You are the first person I have created. I bestow upon you the name Nuling."

Nuling said gratefully, "Thank you, Mother Goddess."

Nuwa continued to reach into the Qiankun Cauldron. After a while, she molded another man. She placed him on the ground, and he immediately came to life, kneeling and exclaiming emotionally, "Greetings, Mother Goddess."

Bai Jin watched from the side, secretly letting out a sigh of relief. After molding so many animals, Empress Nuwa's skill in molding mud had finally been honed. While not exquisite or beautiful, at least they weren't bizarrely shaped anymore; they were acceptable.

Empress Nuwa continued to mold figures. After a long time, she had created over a hundred people. It would take an unknown amount of time to form a race like this.

Empress Nuwa stopped her hands, showing a hint of impatience. She surveyed the valley and pointed at the ground. The rocks silently caved in, forming a large pit. The Qiankun Cauldron tilted, and the mud inside poured down into the pit. She added more Three Lights Divine Water to dilute it.

A vine appeared in Nuwa's hand. She placed the vine into the mud pool and stirred it. With a casual flick, the diluted mud splashed out, transforming into small figures upon landing on the ground.

The mud figures immediately came to life, kneeling and kowtowing, exclaiming, "Greetings, Mother Goddess."

Nuwa's eyes showed delight. It actually worked! She immediately continued to flick the vine.

Beside her, Bai Jin watched with a strange expression, feeling a sense of helplessness. The pitiable humans still couldn't escape their bizarre appearances. These humans, flung out by the vine, were very different from those molded by hand earlier. To be precise, they resembled Yuanmou people with sparse hair.

Seeing Bai Jin's peculiar expression, Fuxi explained from the side, "This vine is an Innate Spiritual Root, the Gourd Vine. The gourds were taken by many powerful beings in the Great Desolation, so the Gourd Vine was kept by my sister."

Bai Jin asked, "Don't you think the humans flung out by it are a bit ugly?"

Fuxi smiled faintly and said, "Junior nephew, skin and flesh are merely outward appearances. There's no need to dwell on them. In reality, their inner selves are all the same. Moreover, my sister has integrated her essence blood into them, giving humans the ability to evolve continuously. How far they can evolve in the future will depend on their own fortune."

More and more humans appeared in the valley, reaching tens of thousands. The bustling scene was lively.

Empress Nuwa slowly lowered the Gourd Vine in her hand and spoke, looking up at the sky, "I, Nuwa, have comprehended the Way of Creation and created a new race, which shall be called Humanity."

Buzz~ The sky of the Great Desolation was filled with purple clouds, and five-colored auspicious light rose from the four directions. A Merit Golden Cloud circled Buzhou Mountain. Immense Saintly might swept across the entire Great Desolation, causing countless small demons and monsters to tremble and kneel.

The Merit Golden Cloud descended. Eight layers fell into Nuwa's body. Half a layer fell into the vine, which transformed into a whip within the merit. Half a layer fell into the mud pool on the ground, which shone with a profound yellow light. Another layer fell into Bai Jin's body.

As the merit entered his body, Bai Jin instantly fell into a trance. All sorts of Great Daos that he couldn't understand before surged into his mind. He immediately sat down cross-legged, entering a state of enlightenment.

On Mount Kunlun, Taishang, Yuanshi, and Tongtian all bowed and said, "Greetings, Saintess Nuwa!"

In the West, Jieyin and Zhunti bowed, saying, "Greetings, Saintess Nuwa!"

In the Demon Court, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Dijun, and tens of thousands of demons all bowed, "Greetings, Saintess Nuwa!"

Among the Wu Clan, the Twelve Ancestral Witches and tens of thousands of Wu Clan members all bowed, "Greetings, Saintess Nuwa."

At this moment, all beings in the Great Desolation with sentience, regardless of their alignment or race, bowed towards Buzhou Mountain, chanting, "Greetings, Saintess Nuwa!"

Nuwa slowly rose from the valley, her majestic voice echoing throughout the Great Desolation, "I shall establish my dojo in the Chaos and expound the Saintly Great Dao. Those with destiny may come and observe."

The boundless beings all said gratefully, "Thank you, Saintess Nuwa!"

Those with insufficient strength felt regret, while those with greater strength were overjoyed. The Saintly Great Dao! Any gains would be a great fortune.

Empress Nuwa looked down at the thousands of humans kneeling in the valley and said, "Brother, I'll trouble you and Bai Jin to look after them for now."

Fuxi bowed respectfully and replied, "Yes!"

Now that Nuwa held the status of a Saint, acting on behalf of Heaven, even Fuxi, her elder brother, dared not be disrespectful.

Nuwa, enveloped in auspicious light, floated upwards and flew towards the heavens.

The humans kneeling in the valley all called out with reluctance, "Farewell, Mother Goddess." Their voices shook the heavens.

As Nuwa flew halfway into the sky, a clear bird cry rang out. A Qing Luan and a Colorful Phoenix, pulling a magnificent imperial carriage, arrived from the west. Their wings spread, appearing exceptionally resplendent.

Empress Nuwa looked at them and smiled slightly, saying, "You seem to have a karmic connection with me as master and disciple! You shall be my maids!"

Qing Luan and Colorful Phoenix nodded excitedly.

Nuwa gracefully boarded the imperial carriage. Qing Luan and Colorful Phoenix pulled the carriage straight up to the Thirty-three Heavens, heading towards the Chaos.

Within the valley, all the humans looked expectantly at Fuxi on the mountainside and Bai Jin, who was meditating and comprehending the Dao.

Fuxi waved his hand, and he and Bai Jin instantly vanished, as if they had already departed.

The humans erupted in an uproar. The Mother Goddess had left, and now even they had left. What would happen to the nascent human race?

Nuling leaped forward and sternly shouted, "Silence!"

All the humans immediately quieted down, looking up at Nuling.

Nuling said proudly, "The Mother Goddess has left. From now on, I am your Clan Leader."

A man shouted, "On what grounds?"

"On the grounds that I am the first person the Mother Goddess created. Also, since Empress Nuwa is a woman, our human race should honor women as supreme."
