"Should we really agree to Cihang's request? If Zhenyuanzi succeeds in bestowing titles upon the Earth Gods, the strength of the demon race will inevitably be affected!"

After Cihang left, Fuxi finally expressed his concerns.

"Rest assured, Zhenyuanzi's focus is on the Earthly Path, and he has no interest in the fate of sentient beings. Therefore, he will not have a significant impact on the demon race."

"Brother, you still need to go to the demon realm and inform Di Jun not to continue obstructing Zhenyuanzi!"

Nuwa had already made up her mind and had naturally weighed the pros and cons.

Since attaining enlightenment, Nuwa has never given up sensing the Human Dao.

But apart from when the human race appeared in the world, the human race seemed to have never existed, and did not respond to her in the slightest.

She knew that this was precisely because of the suppression by the will of Heaven.

She alone was simply not enough to withstand the suppression of the Heavenly Dao.

She hoped that Zhenyuanzi would succeed in one fell swoop, and even if he failed, the underground passage would be touched and relieve her pressure.

So no matter what, she was determined to give it a try and didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Moreover, based on her understanding of Cihang, even if she disagreed, Cihang might still be able to do it.

Rather than exacerbating the conflict and rift with Cihang, it would be better to use this opportunity to forge a positive relationship with them.

She and the Sanqing are ultimately different; they have embarked on two different paths.

On the contrary, Zhenyuanzi and Cihang are likely to become her future allies.

"Don't worry, I'll handle this!"

Although Fuxi still had doubts, he knew that Nuwa, with her level of understanding, could see further than he could.

Nuwa had her reasons for making this decision.

After Fuxi left, Nuwa did not cultivate again, but only focused on the changes in the Primordial World.

Just like her attitude towards Cihang, Nuwa's attitude towards the demon race also changed repeatedly.

After confirming the existence of Human Dao, Nuwa undoubtedly placed much more importance on the demon race.

Human Dao has never represented just the human race, but all sentient beings in the Primordial World.

Demons also exist within the Human Dao.

Humanity was created by her, so naturally it is under her control.

Under such circumstances, if she also gained control of the demon race, she could practically control most of the living beings in the Primordial World.

For this reason, Nuwa once paid great attention to and valued the demon race.

For the sake of the demon race, she could even ignore the calamities suffered by the human race.

Because no matter how many calamities humanity encounters, it cannot change the fact that she is the creator of humanity.

While there were some unexpected developments on the human side, they were still within a controllable range.

What truly misjudged her was the demon race.

She is indeed a saint of the demon race, but Di Jun and Tai Yi are the true Demon Emperor.

Especially given that Di Jun and Tai Yi was extremely wary of him.

As long as Di Jun and Tai Yi are still alive, she will never be able to control the demon race.

With such a clear understanding, Nuwa's attitude towards the demon race became much more indifferent.

Aside from her own direct descendants, she rarely interfered with the demon race.

In her current view, the Witch-Demon Calamity are not necessarily a bad thing.

Besides the Witch Race, Di Jun and Tai Yi were also factors beyond their control.

However, Nuwa wasn't idle; she was also constantly developing her own power.

Di Jun and Tai Yi must perish in the great calamity, but we must still try our best to avoid casualties among the demon race.

Thus, Nuwa and Di Jun maintained a relationship that was neither too close nor too distant.

Therefore, he did not consider the interests of the demon race this time.

At this time, the demon race had little to do with her.

Cihang was unaware of Nuwa's plans, but this did not conflict with his own.

After leaving Empress Wa's Palace, Cihang traveled all the way to the Bloodline.

The restrictive formation that blocked all cultivators posed no obstacle to Cihang.

Cihang entered the Netherworld Underworld without any difficulty.

Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and the order of the underworld has become quite perfect.

While not reaching perfection in every aspect, it is already capable of guiding the reincarnation of all beings in an orderly manner.

With just a glance, Cihang transformed into a beam of light and headed straight for the deepest part of the underworld.

Only when she felt that vast power of reincarnation did Cihang stop in her tracks.

Without Houtu's permission, even Cihang in his current state would not dare to recklessly step into the cycle of reincarnation.

"Houtu Daoist Houtu, Cihang requests an audience!"

With the blessing of magic, Cihang's voice penetrated deep into the cycle of reincarnation.

"Fellow Daoist Cihang!"

Although Houtu was somewhat surprised, she still broke through the barrier directly.

Based on her understanding of Cihang, she wouldn't come here easily unless there was something important to discuss.

Cihang did not mince words with Houtu and stated the purpose of her visit directly.

"Fellow Zhenyuanzi has already taken a step forward?"

"Since it's to awaken the tunnel, I will naturally cooperate fully."

Houtu's eyes lit up with surprise and delight. The Houtu passage was crucial to her future, so how could she possibly refuse?

If the underground passage truly recovers successfully, the restrictions on her will disappear, and she will have the opportunity to prove herself.

There was no need for Cihang to urge them; Houtu used a secret method to transmit a message to the Witch Race, making way for Zhenyuanzi's Investiture of the Gods.

Although Houtu was imprisoned in the underworld, she still maintained a very close connection with the Witch Race.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist!"

Cihang bowed to Houtu in gratitude.

"I should be thanking you, fellow Daoist, for this matter concerns my path to enlightenment."

Many thanks to you, fellow Daoist, for your planning!

Houtu waved her hand to stop Cihang's movement and returned Cihang greeting.

"Since that's the case, then let's not stand on ceremony anymore."

However, even with the avoidance of the Witch and Demon Clans, Zhenyuanzi's Investiture of the Gods will likely not go smoothly.

"At that time, we might need your help, fellow Daoist!"

Cihang stood up and began to give instructions to Houtu.

Although it hasn't started yet, Cihang can already foresee the chaos to come.

"Fellow Daoist, rest assured, although I cannot leave the Underworld, I am not without a way to deal with it."

"At that time, I will certainly protect Fellow Zhenyuanzi!"

The gentleness in Houtu's eyes vanished, replaced by a fierce and murderous aura.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist!"

After reaching an agreement, Cihang immediately took his leave.

In the Primordial World, the atmosphere became tense and eerie because of Zhenyuanzi's actions.

Among all the cultivators, Zhenyuanzi was undoubtedly very low-key; some cultivators were even unaware of his existence.

This time, however, Zhenyuanzi changed his previous low profile and began to sort out the Earth Vein throughout the Primordial World, and also recruited disciples on a large scale.

It goes without saying that they have many schemes planned.

However, although Zhenyuanzi was strong, his strength was not enough to run rampant in the Primordial World.

With the obstruction of the Witch and Demon Clans, as well as many powerful beings, Zhenyuanzi had no choice but to retreat and abandon his plans.

Unexpectedly, in a short period of time, the Witch and Demon Clans actually agreed to allow Zhenyuanzi to venture deep into their territory.

Not only did they not stop him, they also actively cooperated with Zhenyuanzi.

Thanks to the cooperation between the two clans, Zhenyuanzi's progress this time went very smoothly.

In just tens of thousands of years, it left its mark on the mountains and rivers of the East Victory Divine Continent.

The Earth Book is almost entirely imprinted with the spiritual veins of the mountains, rivers, and land of the Primordial World.

As Zhenyuanzi ascended Buzhou Mountain, the Earth Book slowly unfolded, like a miniature projection of the Primordial World.

Above those myriad earth veins, the divine names of cultivators manifested.
