Shen Hongfei couldn't help but complain. Hongjun was such a cunning old daoist, playing all the powerful beings for fools while making them grateful. He truly lived up to his reputation as the most scheming old schemer in the prehistoric era. This young master needs to guard against him.
Nuwa looked back and forth, a blank expression appearing on her face. Her rosy lips parted slightly, her heart overcome with shock. It was truly the six Saints ordained by heaven! She had guessed them all correctly!
Thinking this, Nuwa excitedly touched her belly, a deep sense of pride welling up within her. These were the children of Ancestral Dragon Brother and me!
Just like many mothers, she didn't expect great achievements from her children. But when they truly displayed extraordinary talent, the pride in her heart was undeniable.
Nuwa happily looked at her brother beside her. "Brother, you lost. My baby isn't a monster!"
Fuxi was petrified on the spot, his heart utterly shattered. This was impossible. This was just an unborn child, a remnant of the Ancestral Dragon, a monster destined for heavenly punishment. How could it predict all of this?
As for the idea that this monster had colluded with the powerful beings in Zixiao Palace to stage this scene, that was even more impossible. He knew his own place and didn't have that kind of qualification!
Seeing his sister flaunt her victory, Fuxi's face twitched. He was filled with shame and anger. He had lost to a mere child! If anyone found out, how could he possibly survive in this prehistoric world!
He thought about how he had constantly mocked the child as a monster before, and now he himself had become a laughingstock. The blow to his heart was unimaginable, and his Dao heart had developed a crack, becoming somewhat unstable.
In a daze, Fuxi saw Hongyun making a pained face in the corner. A hint of malice appeared in his eyes. It was all this fellow's fault! He had stolen his Saint position from Zhen Yuanzi, and now he had given it to someone else, causing him to lose the bet and all face.
This was a humiliation, and he vowed to settle this karma in the future!
Shen Hongfei watched Fuxi's constantly changing expression, his heart feeling as sweet as honey. It was incredibly satisfying. Now, let's see if you still have the nerve to shout at this young master.
Ancestor Hongjun sat high on his lotus platform, his eyes slightly closed. He raised his arm slightly, and ripples spread through space. The previously noisy crowd instantly fell silent.
"From now on, you shall listen to the Dao according to these seating arrangements. Do not change them at will."
As the words fell, Hongjun began to expound the Dao. The sound of the Great Dao resonated, accompanied by frequent auspicious signs, myriad beams of light, floating wisps of golden clouds, heavenly blessings, and rising purple qi.
The three thousand listeners in Zixiao Palace were all immersed in the experience. Golden lotuses of purple qi continuously entered their three flowers, and their entire bodies were filled with Dao charm.
Among them, the Sanqing, seated at the very front, absorbed the most Dao charm lotuses. Their auras continuously surged, and their three flowers bloomed even more brilliantly.
Poof!
Poof!
Poof!
Three light sounds emanated from within the Sanqing, and a powerful aura swept outwards, startling some of the listeners with lesser origins and poorer comprehension from their deep states of enlightenment. They all looked forward with anger.
Upon seeing the three flowers above the Sanqing's heads blooming with the aura of a peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal, on the verge of reaching the late stage, they were all shocked. How had the Sanqing reached this level in such a short time!
Envious and shocked, these listeners could only shut their mouths, blaming their own shallow fortune and not the Sanqing.
Hongjun nodded imperceptibly. As expected of Pangu's descendants, their fortune was profound. It seemed they would pull ahead of everyone else this time, becoming the first tier in the prehistoric era. He was quite pleased.
Hongjun's Dao voice continued, and he looked at the other three individuals seated on the six positions. Zhunti and Jieyin wore brilliant smiles, their bodies enveloped in Buddhist light, exuding an aura of compassion for all beings that deeply affected some of the weaker listeners around them.
These listeners showed signs of pain, their desires and emotions surfacing as if they were being assimilated. Hongjun frowned slightly and waved his hand, dispelling the influence.
Nuwa's body manifested the Way of Creation, her aura steadily climbing. She soon broke through her current realm and became a cultivator at the peak of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal mid-stage.
On Di Jun and Taiyi, the True Sun Fire flickered continuously. The scorching flames caused the surrounding listeners to retreat, yet they dared not speak out in anger. Both of them also broke through to the peak of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal mid-stage.
Hongjun was not surprised by this. The harvest of these powerful beings was all within his control.
Time flowed by, and three thousand years passed in the blink of an eye. Hongjun stopped and glanced at the crowd below before closing his eyes to wait.
At this moment, some of the listeners with lesser origins awoke from their enlightenment. A hint of disappointment appeared in their eyes. Seeing the powerful beings still meditating around them, envy and jealousy surfaced in their hearts.
Soon, most of the listeners awoke from their enlightenment. They first bowed to Hongjun, then turned their gaze to the other powerful beings, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy.
Before long, the other powerful beings, except for those on the six seats, also opened their eyes. They all wore smiles, satisfied with their gains. Only Fuxi's expression was grim. Having lost the bet and his Saint seat earlier, his Dao heart was unstable, and his gains were not significant. He remained at the minor completion of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal mid-stage, stuck at the verge of a breakthrough.
Looking at Zhen Yuanzi and the others around him, many of whom were only at the initial stage before, they had now all reached the minor completion of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal mid-stage, placing them at the same level as him. His heart was severely unbalanced, especially when he saw the potent auras emanating from the six individuals on the cushions, which made him insanely jealous.
Just then, several sounds came from the cushions in front. The Western duo broke through to the minor completion of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal mid-stage at this moment. Among the Sanqing, Tongtian and Yuanshi had even reached the peak of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal mid-stage, just a sliver away from breaking through. The four opened their eyes and smiled with satisfaction.
Yuanshi saw that his elder brother was still in the process of breaking through, his aura faintly pushing towards the late stage. His heart filled with anticipation. He then turned and saw Nuwa behind him, enveloped in a ball of creation qi, and frowned, feeling somewhat uncomfortable. "What right does Nuwa have to awaken behind me!"
The other powerful beings also looked at Nuwa in surprise. However, seeing her aura stagnate and on the verge of awakening, they paid her no further mind and turned their attention to Taiqing Laozi.
"Fellow Daoist Laozi is truly worthy of being the head of the Sanqing. Judging by this, he will undoubtedly break through to the late stage of Grand Luo Golden Immortal upon awakening!"
"Indeed, indeed. The other two Qing are not far behind either. It seems that after returning, they will only need a little comprehension to break through, and then all three Qing will become powerful late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortals!"
Many powerful beings sighed with emotion, feeling a desire to curry favor with the Sanqing. These discussions made Yuanshi feel a little better.
Just then, Yin and Yang manifested around Laozi, and a powerful aura swept outwards. His cultivation of late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal was revealed, drawing the attention of many powerful beings.
"Congratulations, fellow Daoist."
"Congratulations, eldest brother."
"..."
Tongtian, Yuanshi, Di Jun, and others stepped forward to offer their congratulations. Some powerful beings even called him the foremost mighty being in the prehistoric era, second only to Ancestor Hongjun.
Laozi was content with the flattery. It seemed he had taken the lead again. He turned and saw Nuwa, who was still in deep contemplation. A trace of a sneer appeared in his usually placid eyes.
"My fellow Daoists flatter this humble old man."
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa is still in deep contemplation. Her fortune is even deeper than mine!"
Upon hearing this, the other powerful beings also looked at Nuwa. However, sensing that her aura was beginning to weaken, they all spoke up, "Daoist, you are too modest. What right does Nuwa have?"
"Judging by her aura, she will awaken soon, not comparable to you, fellow Daoist."
"Yes, yes!"
Fuxi felt a bit uncomfortable hearing the other great beings disparage his sister. He glanced at Nuwa, and just as the others had said, she was about to awaken. He couldn't argue with them.
Inside Nuwa's belly, Shen Hongfei also heard the discussion outside. He felt displeased. My mother, why do you people need to gossip about her?
Let this young master blind your titanium alloy dog eyes!
Shen Hongfei's gaze sharpened. He took out a leaf, around which faint Dao rhyme circulated, emitting a refreshing aura. With a wave of his hand, he sent it into Nuwa's body.
This was an Enlightenment Tea Leaf, an Innate Spiritual Root he had obtained using the sign-in function shortly after entering Zixiao Palace. At the same time, he had also received a piece of excellent Chaos Jade Stone, which could be used to refine Spiritual Treasures.
Outside, Nuwa was preparing to wake up when she suddenly felt a refreshing aura emanating from within her belly. Her mind became clear, and many previously incomprehensible matters suddenly became clear. She was shocked. What is this?
Is the baby helping me?
Nuwa felt a surge of joy. She secretly glanced at her belly. Do you also want your mother to break through?
"Alright, Mother will break through now, and then I can protect you!"
Nuwa murmured, and suddenly a white radiance emanated from her body. A dense aura of Creation spread out, and the three flowers atop her head slowly bloomed. A powerful aura ascended within Zixiao Palace!
