Wu sought reincarnation
Huoyun Cave.
Within the Cave Abode, ten thousand years seemed like a dream.
The lingering Dao Rhyme seemed even more mellow than it had been Ten Thousand Years ago.
Suiren, Fuxi, Shennong, Hong Yun, and a Forefathers of the Human Clan.
They all sat quietly on the Cushion, Surrounding Body auras profound and connected with the overall energy of the Huoyun Cave.
They seemed like timeless statues, yet a glimmer of light occasionally peeked through their opening and closing.
This proves that their cultivation has been continuously improving over these ten thousand years.
The entire Cave Abode was eerily quiet, with only an invisible, heavy atmosphere permeating the air.
Finally, Wu, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them.
His movements were very light, causing no fluctuation in the flow of energy.
But the moment he opened his eyes, everyone present seemed to sense something and turned their gazes toward him.
Wu calmly surveyed the crowd and slowly spoke, breaking the silence.
"The Ten-thousand-year deadline has passed."
"The disciples of the Chan and Jie Sects have all descended the mountain and are now traversing the Primordial Land, searching for those Person destined for the Tribulation."
His voice wasn't loud, but it resonated clearly in everyone's ears.
"The prelude to Tribulation has already begun."
"It's time for me to Reincarnation."
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere inside the cave immediately became extremely tense.
It had been planned for millennia and simulated countless times, but when this moment truly arrived...
A myriad of thoughts and anxieties still welled up in everyone's minds.
Fuxi looked at Wu and asked in a deep voice.
"Fellow Daoist, has the Person destined for the Tribulation already appeared?"
Wu gently shook his head.
"The secrets of Heavenly Secrets are in chaos, and Tribulation is about to begin. Even Saint cannot accurately predict the exact whereabouts of those Person destined for the Tribulation."
"They only know a general timeframe."
"At this point, it's just a matter of casting a wide net."
"But the net has been cast, and it's time for the fish to enter."
Wu's gaze swept over the crowd, finally settling on Fuxi, Shennong, Suiren, and Hong Yun.
"My Reincarnation, to be reborn as the Human Emperor, will require a process."
"At that time, the Fortune our Human Clan will inevitably be shaken."
"Though it was only a brief moment, those Saint, seated high in the heavens, overlooking the Primordial Wilderness, could not hide from any disturbance."
"They will inevitably notice the anomaly, and then deduce the secrets of Heavenly Secrets to find out what's going on."
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression turned serious.
They all understood what this meant.
Human Clan is now the dominant force in the universe, its immense Fortune permeating the heavens and earth, affecting everything with a single move.
Like a bright moon in the dark night, it cannot be concealed.
If the Human Clan's Fortune is disturbed, those high-ranking Saint will surely notice it immediately!
Once a Saint notices the abnormality in the Human Clan's Fortune, they can then follow the clues and deduce further.
The plan for Wu Reincarnation reincarnate Human Emperor will then be completely exposed.
At that time, what awaits Wu will be the endless schemes and thunderous blows of several Saint.
Wu continued.
"So, at the moment of my Reincarnation."
"Then I will have to trouble you fellow Daoists to remain at Huoyun Cave."
"Using the Kongtong Seal, a treasure of the Human Clan Fortune, we will combine our efforts to suppress this turmoil, stabilize Human Clan Fortune, and conceal all Heavenly Secrets."
"We must completely erase any trace of this turmoil and prevent those Saint from noticing anything amiss."
They need to pull off a cover-up!
This step was completed right under the nose of Saint.
"Rest assured, fellow Daoist!"
Fuxi nodded solemnly.
"We have already gone through this process countless times; every step is flawless."
"When you Reincarnation, we will do everything in our power to suppress the fluctuations in the Human Clan's Fortune,"
"Combined with the Fortune of the Human Clan, Innate Eight Trigrams Formation was set up to confuse the Heavenly Secrets and reverse Yinyang."
"Even the Saint are powerful, but unless they personally descend to investigate, all they can see through deduction is Chaos."
"They will only assume that this is a normal phenomenon, a sign that Tribulation is about to begin and the secrets of Heavenly Secrets are inherently chaotic."
Suiren stroked his long beard and spoke.
"Wu, for the sake of your people, you risked your life and personally entered the Killing Tribulation."
"It is our duty to guard the rear and protect you and Human Clan!"
The other Forefathers of the Human Clan also stepped forward.
They all knew that this matter concerned the future of the entire Human Clan and Wu's safety, so no one dared to be negligent in the slightest.
Looking at the resolute faces of everyone, Wu felt a warmth in his heart.
He bowed deeply to the crowd.
"In that case, I'll leave it to you fellow Daoists."
Suiren, Fuxi, Shennong, and others quickly stepped aside, not daring to accept his full courtesy.
Shennong stepped forward and helped Wu up.
"Fellow Daoist, why must you be like this!"
"You are the one who personally stepped into that most dangerous vortex for the sake of my Human Clan."
"We were merely guarding the rear, providing cover for you; how could we possibly compare to the dangers you face?"
Hong Yun also looked worried.
"Indeed, fellow Daoist, the Saint's Scheme are unfathomable."
"Although you entered this game as the Human Emperor, protected by the Fortune of the Human Clan, you are ultimately still part of it."
"Those Saint, for the sake of their respective Dao Lineage, will use any means necessary."
"At that time, they might not dare to attack you in your True Body."
"But the intrigues and schemes within the chessboard are bound to be endless and impossible to guard against."
"Remember this: if things are not going to work, prioritize your own safety."
"That's right!"
"Fellow Daoist, you are now the true pillar of our Human Clan. Your safety is related to the future of the entire Human Clan."
"If things become unmanageable, remember to withdraw in time!"
"As long as the green hills remain, there's no worry about running out of firewood."
"My Human Clan can withstand the death and injury of a dynastic change, but we cannot bear the cost of losing you!"
Fellow Daoist, take care!
"Fellow Daoist, please be extremely careful!"
One by one, the Forefathers of the Human Clan spoke.
Their words contained no grand pronouncements, only the most simple and sincere words of advice and concern.
The safety of Wu is the most important thing.
They could accept that Human Clan would suffer some losses during the Tribulation, but they absolutely did not want to see Wu, the Martial Ancestor of the Human Clan, completely entangle himself in it.
Wu looked at everyone calmly; he could feel their heartfelt concern.
He nodded.
"Fellow Daoists, please rest assured."
I have my own plans.
"I am not going there to die."
"If things truly deteriorate to the point of no return, I will withdraw and protect myself."
"You don't need to worry about that."
Only after receiving his affirmative answer did everyone finally feel completely relieved.
Wu was never a reckless person.
Since he said that, he must have absolute certainty.
"Good!"
"In that case, we will wait here for your good news!"
May you, fellow Daoist, attain the body of Human Emperor and suppress all schemes!
"Fellow Daoist, please take care on your journey!"
Everyone spoke up to bid farewell to Wu.
Wu nodded solemnly to everyone once again.
"I'm off!"
Having said that, he resolutely turned around and strode out of the cave without any hesitation.
"Farewell, fellow Daoist!"
Fuxi, Shennong, Suiren, Hong Yun, and all the Forefathers of the Human Clan bowed deeply to Wu's retreating figure.
Their voices converged into a torrent, echoing for a long time within the Huoyun Cave.
Wu's figure quickly disappeared at the cave entrance.
After a long while, Fuxi finally let out a long sigh.
"The Fate of the Human Clan rests entirely on Wu's journey."
Hong Yun withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice.
"All we can do is guard this place and ensure Wu has no worries about the future!"
"That's right!"
Fuxi's gaze sharpened, and he roared.
"Gentlemen, take your places!"
"Activate the formation! Suppress the Fortune of the Human Clan!"
"Yes!"
At his command, all the Forefathers within the Cave Abode instantly sprang into action.
Fuxi, Shennong, Suiren, Hong Yun... one after another, the Great Powers of the Human Clan sat cross-legged in the positions they had long ago calculated.
Buzz!
The entire Huoyun Cave suddenly trembled.
The misty energy began to swirl wildly, and countless profound Dao patterns lit up from the cave walls, weaving together into a vast array.
In an instant, countless dazzling rays of light erupted throughout the entire Huoyun Cave.
With the Three Sovereigns as the array's core, the Forefathers of the Human Clan as its nodes, and the Kongtong Seal, the Human Clan's most Fortune, as its center!
A Heaven-Encompassing Grand Formation, powerful enough to obscure the Heavenly Secrets and suppress the Fortune of the entire Human Clan, was instantly formed!
The next chapter will be posted later.
