With the return of the Human Emperor, almost all the powerful beings from the Primordial World gathered at the Holy Mountain.

All the saints were also present.

It was only at this moment that they confirmed that the human race's Earthly Sovereign Shennong was none other than Hong Yun.

Seeing Hong Yun re-enter the ranks of top experts, many cultivators couldn't help but sigh with admiration.

I'm amazed by the incredible opportunities Hong Yun has presented.

Although he lost the Primordial Violet Qi, achieving the supreme status of the Human Emperor was no less impressive.

The Primordial World of today has long since taken a different path from what it once was.

The weight of the throne of the Human Emperor is greater than ever before.

It can be said that the Human Emperor was a precursor to the Sage.

Once Nuwa successfully revives Human Dao, the Human Emperor will have the opportunity to attain sainthood and truly rival the Heavenly Dao Sage.

Hong Yun underwent another setback and still managed to surpass them.

Aside from envying Hong Yun, they focused most of their attention on Cihang.

Hong Yun's current opportunities and achievements are absolutely inseparable from Cihang's help.

Although Cihang himself was not a saint, he indirectly shaped several saints.

Nuwa, Houtu, Zhenyuanzi, Fuxi, Hong Yun.

These individuals all attained enlightenment with the guidance of Cihang behind them.

Therefore, Cihang's status in their hearts is subtly above that of the other saints.

While the saints were merely powerful in themselves, Cihang assisted several people in reaching the pinnacle of their abilities.

If Cihang can help them, then perhaps they too can take this step.

In an instant, the gazes of many powerful figures toward Cihang were filled with fervor.

They couldn't wait to befriend Cihang right now; they weren't willing to give up even the slightest chance.

But before they could take any action, they discovered that after receiving merit and fortune, Zhenyuanzi had actually broken through his bottleneck and attained enlightenment in one fell swoop.

The divine power of the Holy Path spread throughout the entire Primordial World, and all living beings offered their congratulations.

From then on, the Primordial World gained another sage.

Seeing Zhenyuanzi attain enlightenment, the Sanqing and Jieyin were not in a good position.

After all, the resources of the Primordial World are fixed; the more saints there are, the less fortune and merit they will accumulate.

But Zhenyuanzi's attainment of enlightenment is a fact that no one can change.

Suppressing their emotions, the Sanqing Ones stepped forward to offer their congratulations.

Congratulations, fellow Daoist!

"My fellow Daoist has attained sainthood, which has greatly relieved my pressure."

Houtu also revealed her true form, looking at Zhenyuanzi with a joyful expression.

Zhenyuanzi did not distribute the power of Houtu when he attained enlightenment.

On the contrary, because of the strengthening of her will, Houtu's aura became more and more profound, and she had already become somewhat similar to Hongjun.

Houtu and Zhenyuanzi are different.

Houtu's goal is the underground passage, to become its spokesperson and controller.

Zhenyuanzi's goal is the Primordial Chaos Path, and the Earthly Dao Saints are an aid on his path to transcendence.

There was naturally no conflict between the two.

Looking at Houtu and Zhenyuanzi, Nuwa revealed an expression of envy.

The tunnels are becoming increasingly powerful, and she is just beginning to see hope for the revival of Human Dao.

Previously, her strength had always been superior to Houtu's, but unexpectedly, Houtu has now surpassed her.

However, she wasn't jealous.

Although the Witch and Demon Clans have a feud, this is not the case between her and Houtu.

There is actually a connection of interests between them.

The stronger the Earthly Dao, the more pressure it can withstand from the Heavenly Dao, and the faster the will of Human Dao can recover.

Houtu was merely one step ahead; she would eventually catch up with her, and even surpass Houtu.

The simultaneous attainment of enlightenment by Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun was a double celebration, making the sacred mountain of the human race even more lively.

Whether it was envy or jealousy, Zhenyuanzi had already attained enlightenment and distanced himself from them.

When facing Zhenyuanzi, all they showed was respect.

Cihang is surrounded by many quasi-saint level experts.

The usually aloof Quasi-Saint went to great lengths to please Cihang.

When it comes to the path to Saint Position, what do dignity and face matter?

Unfortunately, they were destined to leave disappointed.

Houtu Zhenyuanzi's ability to attain enlightenment was indeed related to Cihang, but more importantly, it was due to their own accumulated knowledge and experience.

Cihang's ability to assist cultivators in attaining enlightenment is mostly due to following the natural course of events.

This lively gathering lasted for several years before everyone left one by one.

Zhenyuanzi's attainment of enlightenment had a profound impact on all the sages.

Moreover, having missed out on the fortune and merit of two previous Human Emperor, the Sanqing Ones are determined to seize the throne of the next Human Emperor.

With Hong Yun's attainment of the Human Emperor, a portion of the human race's fortune returned, and the final Human Emperor Xuanyuan, quietly descended into the world.

Zhenyuanzi accepted Houtu's invitation to enter the Netherworld together to discuss and plan the future of the underground passage.

In the blink of an eye, only Cihang, Fuxi, and Hong Yun remained on the sacred mountain.

Cihang stayed, also in response to the invitation from the two.

Once no one else was around, Hong Yun excitedly stepped forward to express her gratitude.

"What are you doing, Fellow Daoist Hongyun? Your achievements today are entirely due to your own strength and hard work!"

Cihang waved to support Hong Yun, but did not accept her deep bow.

Hong Yun is now blessed with good fortune, so this gift is by no means insignificant.

"If it weren't for you, fellow Daoist, Hong Yun would not be where he is today; he would probably have been annihilated long ago."

Fellow Daoist has done Hong Yun a great favor, so you certainly deserve such a gesture of respect!

Hong Yun couldn't help but recall their first meeting.

Initially, he only showed some consideration for Cihang because he thought Cihang was of good character and ability.

That small act of kindness he showed that day has rewarded him with such a great opportunity.

"I have long regarded you as a close friend. If you are so polite to me, you would truly be treating Cihang as an outsider!"

Although he had helped Hong Yun a lot, Hong Yun had also given him a Twelve-Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus back then.

Cihang never felt that Hong Yun owed her anything.

Hong Yun, being a free spirit, immediately stopped insisting on expressing her gratitude and instead elevated the importance of Cihang in her heart.

Seeing that the atmosphere had relaxed again, Fuxi stepped forward and respectfully asked for guidance.

"Teacher, Fuxi's reason for asking you to stay this time is actually to inquire about something in detail. He wants to ask you where the future of humanity lies and how to develop humanity!"

With Fuxi's wisdom, he could naturally see the shortcomings of the human race today.

Humans are said to be the protagonists of heaven and earth, yet they cannot control their own destiny.

Just like the previous calamities, if it weren't for the intervention of many cultivators, the human race would not have ended up like this.

These cultivators are beneficial to the development of the human race, but they can also be extremely harmful.

Moreover, Fuxi knew that the human race was not the sole protagonist of the universe.

Before the human race, there were three ancient races and Witch and Demon Clans.

As the Human Emperor, he naturally did not want the human race to suffer the same fate.

"The human race has only just begun to show signs of great prosperity. Even if those cultivators have impure intentions, the human race still needs them."

As for the future of humanity, it naturally lies within humanity itself, and within you, the Human Emperor!

"As long as you can advance further, who will dare to bully the human race!"

Unlike Fuxi's concerns, Cihang was optimistic about the future of the human race.

Driven by the grand scheme of things, the human race is destined to occupy the position of the protagonist of the universe for a long time.

Moreover, once the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors return to their positions, they will be a formidable force capable of intimidating many cultivators.

"Does the teacher mean that we can really make further progress?"

Fuxi cared about the human race, and he also cared about his own path of cultivation; the two were not in conflict.

"There is certainly an opportunity. Once Human Dao is restored, who could be more suitable for the Saint Position of Human Dao than the Human Emperor!"

Cihang was not worried about this at all.

Even if Fuxi had no intention of doing so, Nuwa would still elevate him to the Saint Position in the Human Dao.

When the Three Sovereigns attain enlightenment simultaneously, humanity will become the true protagonist of heaven and earth.
