Shennong Succeeds the Throne, Crisis of the Human Race
Taiqing re-established its religion.
Cihang bowed halfway towards the direction of Shouyang Mountain to congratulate Taiqing on its re-establishment of the religion.
Although Wei Neng directly confronts Taiqing, it can be discerned from the aura he exudes when he establishes his religion.
This time, Taiqing's strength not only did not decline, but instead became even stronger.
The current Taiqing truly possesses the aura of a sage.
The aura it exudes is more similar to that of the Heavenly Dao Hongjun.
The re-establishment of the Taiqing sect greatly shocked the cultivators of the Primordial World.
Once again, I marvel at the immense fortune and profound power of the Sanqing Ones.
Although he lost his position as the Leader of the Human Sect, his strength actually increased rather than decreased.
These cultivators held the Sanqing in even greater awe.
Nuwa didn't say much about it, and accepted it very easily.
Taiqing found a path more suitable for himself, and therefore no longer dwelled on abolishing the Human Teachings.
As two of the strongest beings in the world, how could there be any true mortal enmity?
On the contrary, Jieyin and Zhunti were greatly disappointed by this result.
The Taiqing's strength had been greatly diminished, and they saw an opportunity for Western development in the process.
But now, not only has Taiqing's strength recovered to its original state, it has even improved, forcing them to abandon their plans.
With the Sanqing Ones present, they still need to wait for the right opportunity to develop in the East Victory Divine Continent.
In the Shouyang Mountain, Taiqing was not happy about re-establishing his religion.
Firstly, he is highly proficient in the principle of non-action, and few emotions can affect him.
Furthermore, although he seems to have recovered this time, the abolition of the Human Teachings still has a significant impact on the Sanqing Ones.
Humanity is the destined protagonist, and without the advantage of the Human Teachings, the Sanqing' desire to develop and spread their teachings among humans naturally encountered many more obstacles.
Even though Taiqing cultivates the Way of Non-Action, he still has to fight for his own Saint Realm cultivation.
The crucial point is that, shrouded in the grand scheme of things, they have no idea who will become the next Human Emperor.
Only when the Human Emperor truly rises to power can the other party's identity be confirmed.
But by then, it will be too late.
Therefore, after Taiqing attained enlightenment, he dispatched Xuandu to enter the human race again to seize the human race's fortune and merits.
Even though he had long since left the human race, Xuandu's identity as a human was the best proof of that.
Not only Taiqing, but also Yuanshi and Tongtian simultaneously sent disciples into the human race.
With the strength and vision of the disciples of the Three Teachings, even if the chosen one is not the Human Emperor, he will definitely be blessed with great fortune.
Those who contribute to the human race will also gain considerable merit and good fortune.
Take Fuxi, for example.
Fuxi's attainment of the Human Emperor was not solely due to Fuxi himself.
Those sages who followed him in spreading the word and developing the human race were also recognized by the fortune of the human race and worshipped by the entire human race.
It is worth mentioning that, without Taiqing's intervention, Fuxi and a group of human sages were not trapped in the Huoyun Cave.
Instead, they established a sacred mountain to guard the human race's altar and suppress the human race's destiny.
After Fuxi and others settled there, the sacred mountain became a holy land for all humankind, comparable to many other blessed lands and grotto-heavens in the Primordial World.
Having already attained enlightenment, Fuxi could no longer interfere in the affairs of the human race, and instead left the opportunity to the next Human Emperor.
Because they were no longer bound by constraints and were both of the same human lineage, the relationship between Fuxi and Nuwa did not become estranged.
Although the blood ties are gone, the affection between them has not diminished in the slightest.
The human race did not stop developing after Fuxi attained enlightenment; instead, it entered a period of rapid development.
The human race is rapidly adapting to the foundation laid by Fuxi.
In just a few hundred years, the human race has expanded more than tenfold.
At the same time, the way of survival passed down by Fuxi has been developed to its extreme.
However, as the human race continued to expand, a new problem arose once again.
Although the Primordial World was rich in resources, as the human race grew, the resources naturally generated gradually became insufficient to sustain them.
It's not that the resources of the Primordial World have been exhausted, but rather that the human race is weak and there are too few plants and wild animals that can be consumed.
But they dared not try it rashly.
Leaving aside harmful and inedible plants, even some spiritual fruits pose a deadly threat to mortals.
Humans are indeed getting stronger, but their survival is becoming increasingly difficult.
Humanity's development thus entered a period of calm, and even showed signs of decline.
This is clearly a test that humanity must undergo in its development.
Countless outstanding figures of the human race were born at this time and began to actively help the human race get out of its predicament.
These calamities are fatal to humanity, but for cultivators, resolving them is a piece of cake.
However, since it concerns the development of the human race, cultivators cannot personally intervene.
If the human race wants to truly establish itself as the protagonist of the Primordial World, it needs to develop and grow stronger on its own, rather than relying on power.
Cultivators can teach humans and provide assistance from the sidelines, but they cannot personally intervene.
Otherwise, it would be a curse rather than a blessing for the human race.
Even cultivators themselves, if they act rashly, will be entangled in Karma, hindering their future cultivation.
For cultivators, these difficulties are nothing at all.
But for ordinary people, it is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Even the most outstanding and sage-like figures among the human race were powerless to change this.
Meanwhile, Hong Yun's reincarnation has already achieved enlightenment and emerged into the world.
Under Zhenyuanzi's tutelage, Hong Yun not only possesses a compassionate heart but is also filled with boundless wisdom.
He knew very well that what the human race lacked at this moment was not strength, but food to feed them.
Hong Yun also discovered the Great Vow to find new food for the human race.
At this moment, Hong Yun's fortune was beginning to show, and the human race was favored by it.
During his travels away from his tribe, he found the seeds of the Five Grains.
After bringing back the seeds of the Five Grains, Hong Yun further refined her planting techniques.
After several years of hard work, Hong Yun has successfully cultivated the Five Grains.
This not only solved the tribe's food crisis, but also left them with a considerable surplus.
After the experiment was successful, Hong Yun also took her planting techniques and began to teach them to people from other tribes.
Because of the new food he found, which solved the greatest predicament of the human race, Hong Yun gained the recognition and respect of all humankind.
Because of his mastery of agriculture, Hong Yun acquired the name Shennong and became the second Co-Lord of the Human Race after Fuxi.
At this very moment, Hong Yun's fortune was fully revealed, and he truly entered the sight of many cultivators.
Although they were envious and jealous, Hong Yun was not without powerful backers; he had Zhenyuanzi protecting him.
It was also because of Zhenyuanzi that many dedicated cultivators from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications were driven back.
As Hong Yun became the Co-Lord of the Human Race, many outstanding human talents began to gather around him, working together to promote the development of the human race.
Just as humanity was flourishing, a calamity struck.
This time it's not a food crisis, but a disease and plague.
As humanity ceases to reproduce and develop, their Innate Origin gradually dissipates, and their physical bodies weaken continuously.
Under such circumstances, it is natural to be troubled by illness.
Humanity also suffered heavy casualties as a result of this crisis.
Sadness, tension, fear, and other emotions permeated the human race.
