Battle of the Saint Realm, the Shackles of Heaven's Dao
Taiqing's attainment of enlightenment had already attracted the attention of many powerful figures.
Now that Nuwa has manifested her divine power, it has brought many changes to this enlightenment process.
Many powerful figures also rose and headed straight for Shouyang Mountain.
Who could remain unmoved by the prospect of Saint Position?
Unfortunately, the Saint Position were already predetermined, and no matter how much effort they put in, it would be useless.
Now that the Taiqing Dao attainment has undergone changes, these powerful figures can no longer sit still and are heading straight for Shouyang Mountain.
Nuwa's appearance officially kicked off this game of strategy.
"Nuwa, are you trying to stop me from attaining enlightenment?"
Taiqing was no longer as calm and indifferent as before; he looked at Nuwa with a gloomy expression.
At the same time, he no longer cared about Nuwa's status as a saint.
Cihang understood Taiqing quite well.
Even the most composed person would find it difficult to remain calm in the face of such a sudden change.
After cultivating for billions of years, what one seeks is to attain enlightenment and become a saint.
Being blocked at this crucial juncture is unacceptable to anyone.
He understands, but because of differing stances, he will still take action when necessary.
Not only Taiqing, Yuanshi and Tongtian also looked unwell.
Although the Sanqing had some disagreements at this time, they were still very close and their interests were intertwined.
As soon as the incident occurred, the two leaped to Taiqing's side, looking at Nuwa with hostile expressions.
"It's not that I want to stop you from attaining enlightenment, but you need to give me an explanation."
I created the human race; this is a well-known fact Primordial World.
Fellow Daoist, if you wish to establish Human Teachings, shouldn't you obtain my consent?
Even if the Sanqing Ones look unwell, they pose no threat to Nuwa.
At this moment, she is still the only saint in the Primordial World, while the Sanqing Ones are only quasi-saints.
Moreover, she was not at fault in this matter, nor could she be said to have targeted Taiqing.
"This matter was indeed my fault, but my ascension to sainthood was ordained by Heaven, and I was destined to be the Leader of the Human Sect."
How about I consider this a favor I owe you, fellow Daoist?
"I will unconditionally lend a hand to you once in the future!"
Taiqing suppressed his anger, his words carrying a hint of compromise.
With his enlightenment imminent, he didn't want any more complications.
In this matter, he was indeed in the wrong.
Most importantly, although he possessed the Primordial Violet Qi, he was unable to break through the barrier of human destiny.
Taiqing's gaze involuntarily fell upon the Kongtong Seal.
Nuwa actually obtained the treasure of human destiny first.
It was also because of this Kongtong Seal that Nuwa's originally unstable fortune has been completely stabilized.
"Fellow Daoist is truly generous?"
It seems you've also noticed the extraordinary nature of the human race. Do you really think a single Karma can buy you power over the human race?
If you establish Human Teachings, where will that leave me, the Holy Mother of the Human Race?
Nuwa's words were full of sarcasm, showing no intention of compromising whatsoever.
"What would it take for you, fellow Daoist, to allow me to establish the Human Teachings?"
Fellow Daoist should be aware that the present world as presented by our Human Teachings is in accordance with the grand trend of Heaven.
Even if you attain sainthood first, you cannot defy the will of Heaven!
Taiqing's expression grew increasingly grim.
Indeed, I cannot defy the will of Heaven.
"Fellow Daoist, you may establish the Human Teachings if you wish, and I have no intention of hindering your path to enlightenment. However, the Human Teachings will Nuwa me, Nuwa!"
Nuwa finished speaking, her aura became even more magnificent and sacred.
"To consider Nuwa as the supreme being? That's impossible!"
Taiqing roared in fury.
Nuwa wanted more than just Human Teachings.
If he actually agrees, he will be forever suppressed under Nuwa.
This is completely contrary to his goals.
"Then there's no other way. It's not that I'm unwilling to grant your wish, but that you won't accept it!"
Compared to Taiqing, Nuwa remained remarkably calm.
"Nuwa, are you really going to target me like this?"
Although I have not yet attained enlightenment, I am not someone you can insult!
Taiqing also stopped concealing his aura, and at the same time, a Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram appeared in front of him.
"Is that so? Nuwa has also been wanting to learn from your methods, fellow Daoist!"
Nuwa also knew that Taiqing would not compromise easily.
"Good!"
With a hand seal, Taiqing unleashed a beam of Yin-Yang Divine Light from the Taiji Diagram, heading straight for Nuwa.
Wherever the divine light passed, it instantly annihilated the surrounding void, and all things dissolved.
Nuwa used the Mountain and River Map to protect herself, and the Red Embroidered Ball flew out of her hand, shattering the Yin-Yang Divine Light while attacking the Taiji Diagram itself.
A great battle erupted in an instant, and a massive storm of spiritual energy forced all the cultivators to retreat.
Although Taiqing did not successfully attain enlightenment, he had reached the critical point and was further supported by the great power of heaven and earth.
Furthermore, with the supreme treasure Taiji Diagram in hand, his combat power was completely elevated to the level of a saint.
As Taiqing said, his attainment of enlightenment this time was recognized by the Heavenly Dao, and he was protected by the power of the Heavenly Dao.
Nuwa, on the other hand, had already attained sainthood and her spiritual treasures, though inferior to the Taiji Diagram, were still capable of destroying mountains and rivers in her hands.
Even if the two tried to restrain themselves, the damage they caused to the surrounding world was still terrifying.
Yuanshi and Tongtian wanted to help, but they couldn't get involved in the battle at all.
Cihang immediately used her supernatural powers to move the nearby humans away.
The human race cannot withstand the aftershocks of the two's powerful formation.
The onlookers quickly intervened to stabilize the surroundings and prevent them from being affected by the battle between the two.
At the heart of the battle, Nuwa was secretly astonished by Taiqing's fighting prowess.
Nuwa was originally full of confidence; with her saintly strength, suppressing Taiqing was not a difficult task.
However, the reality is that although Taiqing failed to break through, he received the blessing of the Heavenly Dao.
Clearly, it is Heaven's will that Taiqing will attain enlightenment.
Her opponent is not only Taiqing, but also the will of Heaven.
Taiqing, on the other hand, showed no restraint and attacked Nuwa with all his might, determined to break through Nuwa's blockade and forcibly prove his Dao.
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged blows countless times.
Even with Cihang's current cultivation level, it is difficult for him to grasp the trajectory of the Great Dao within.
But through the All Beings Seal, Cihang sensed a powerful force that was constantly reviving.
The Way of Heaven is helping Taiqing attain enlightenment, and Nuwa is also taking this opportunity to awaken Human Dao.
This is not merely a struggle between Nuwa and Taiqing, but a clash between the Way of Heaven and the Human Dao.
Watching the two fight, Cihang seemed lost in thought.
Just as he had expected, the Heavenly Dao was not as terrifying as he had imagined.
The power of Heaven's Way is undeniable, but Heaven's Way itself is subject to layers of constraints, making it impossible to act arbitrarily.
Its control over the Primordial World was not as powerful as people thought.
Take, for example, Taiqing's enlightenment this time.
If Heaven could act arbitrarily, suppressing Nuwa and the unevolved Human Dao would be an easy task.
In reality, it could only separate a wisp of consciousness and bestow it upon Taiqing.
No matter how much more, Heaven is powerless to stop it.
Cihang was able to discover these things because of the legacy of the Human Emperor Jiutou Shi.
Although the Three Sovereigns of the Primordial Era failed to seize control of the Primordial World from the Heavenly Dao, their Dao Transformation also limited the Heavenly Dao.
Under these various constraints, the Way of Heaven is forced to operate according to the rules of Heaven and Earth.
Although they possess independent consciousness, they cannot arbitrarily exercise the authority of Heaven.
