After accepting the disciple, Xuandu named the child Fuxi.
In Shouyang Palace, Nuwa was relieved to see Fuxi successfully born.
Nuwa sacrificed the Innate Supreme Treasure Seven Heavenly Light Divine Blades, and also took out the Innate Supreme Treasure Primordial Chaos Axe left by Su Mu for Nuwa. The two Innate Supreme Treasures obscured the heavenly secrets.
Coupled with the fact that it was currently the period of tribulation, the heavenly secrets were completely concealed.
Nuwa then used the Seven Heavenly Light Divine Blades to sever her own Dao Fruit as a Heavenly Dao Saint.
Instantly, Nuwa's cultivation plummeted from the seventh heaven of a Saint, to the sixth heaven, and finally directly fell to the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm.
Because Nuwa wanted to prove herself as a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin, her cultivation directly dropped to the peak of the Great Golden Immortal realm.
Nuwa in the Great Golden Immortal realm was very weak. Fortunately, the Human Race Destiny entered Nuwa's body, compensating for her weakened state.
After severing her Dao Fruit, Nuwa began to comprehend and cultivate the Law of Creation.
Su Mu sensed that Nuwa had severed her Saint Dao Fruit, so he used the Chaos Bead to help conceal the heavenly secrets of Shouyang Mountain.
In the Purple Cloud Palace of Chaos.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun suddenly fell out of the Dao Integration Realm. He was greatly alarmed and wanted to deduce.
But it was currently the period of tribulation, and he could not deduce the heavenly secrets. Even the Heavenly Dao could not deduce them. He could only wait until after the tribulation.
East Sea Coast.
After Fuxi was born, he could speak at the age of one, his linguistic talent was astonishing.
By the age of three, he had already displayed intelligence and insight beyond ordinary people.
He was full of curiosity about the world, constantly observing his surroundings and asking thought-provoking questions.
His intelligence surprised everyone, and they all believed that this child would surely achieve extraordinary things in the future.
By the age of five, Fuxi had already begun to learn knowledge such as characters and arithmetic. His learning speed was extremely fast, and he quickly mastered this knowledge.
At the same time, he also enjoyed listening to the elders tell ancient legends and stories, drawing wisdom and inspiration from them.
By the age of ten, the leader of the Huaxu Tribe brought him along. Fuxi, influenced by his surroundings, could also handle some simple matters for the Huaxu Tribe.
As time went by, after the leader of the Huaxu Tribe grew old, Fuxi succeeded him as leader, leading the tribe members to develop.
Fuxi saw his tribesmen catching fish by going into the river with their hands, which was time-consuming and laborious. He then observed the process of a spider catching prey.
So he found some rattan vines and wove them into a simple fishing net.
Fuxi put the rattan net into the river. When he picked it up again, it was surprisingly full of fish.
After the experiment was successful, Fuxi found the men of the tribe and had them cut rattan, while the women followed his method to weave.
After weaving, he had the men take the rattan nets to the riverbank.
One man curiously asked, "Chieftain, what is this thing for?"
Fuxi said to him, "This net is for catching fish."
"Catching fish? This rattan net can catch fish? But we can catch quite a lot with our hands every day?" Although the man was still confused, he put the net into the river.
When the net was lifted, they saw it was full of fish. Everyone exclaimed, "So many fish! It's much faster than catching them with our hands. This net saves so much time and effort."
Fuxi said to the man, "You are responsible for spreading the technique of weaving fishing nets so that everyone in the tribe can make them and use them."
Just then, a young man ran towards Fuxi, shouting, "Chieftain, bad news! Some tribesmen went hunting on the mountain and were injured by a wild boar."
When Fuxi returned to the tribe, he saw a middle-aged man lying on the ground with a bloody leg. His wife was already bandaging him.
Fuxi looked at the injured man, then turned to the tribesmen beside him and said, "Everyone, stop hunting on the mountain for now."
"Chieftain, if we don't hunt on the mountain, we won't have anything to eat."
"Don't worry, I will solve this problem." Fuxi said and left the tribe.
After Fuxi left the tribe, he entered the mountain. He saw many animals, observing and recording as he went.
He discovered that some animals were very docile. If they were kept at home, there would be no need to hunt on the mountain.
He excitedly ran down the mountain, called many strong men, and led them back into the mountain.
He had these men catch many pheasants, wild ducks, rabbits, wild goats, wild oxen, and some small wild boars.
After bringing them back to the tribe, he had them use branches to enclose an area to raise these animals. Those that could fly had their wings clipped.
After a period of domestication, the tribesmen told Fuxi that the prey they had caught earlier had already reproduced a lot.
From now on, as long as they raised them well, they would not have to risk their lives hunting on the mountain.
Fuxi called chickens and ducks "poultry," and sheep, oxen, and pigs "livestock."
Under Fuxi's governance, the Huaxu Tribe began to slowly expand.
Before, this was just a small tribe with not too many people.
As time went by, nearby tribes heard about the Huaxu Tribe and came to it.
The Huaxu Tribe attracted people from the surrounding areas to settle. These new residents brought different skills and cultures, further promoting the development of the Huaxu Tribe.
Due to its superior geographical location, more and more tribes merged into the Huaxu Tribe.
The great name of Fuxi also reached the ears of the tribal leaders of the human race.
They believed Fuxi to be knowledgeable and that he had made immense contributions to the development of the human race.
After a long period of thought and discussion, all the tribal leaders finally reached a consensus: they decided to nominate Fuxi as the leader of all tribes, to let him take on this important position – Great Leader!
This decision meant Fuxi would become the leader of the entire tribal alliance, possessing greater power and responsibility.
During the process of electing Fuxi as Great Leader, each tribe fully expressed their wishes and showed high trust and support for Fuxi.
They believed Fuxi possessed excellent leadership skills, wisdom, and courage, and could lead them towards a prosperous future.
At the same time, Fuxi also felt the immense responsibility and expressed his willingness to do his utmost and live up to their expectations.
Fuxi noticed that most people spent a large portion of their day with nothing much to do.
Based on his innate spiritual treasure, the Fuxi Qin, he created instruments like the Qin and Se for people's entertainment and to cultivate their character.
With the musical instruments, the lives of the human race became rich and colorful.
People began to play and enjoy music in various ways.
They gathered together, appreciating beautiful melodies, and experiencing the joy and emotional resonance that music brought.
Some chose to play traditional instruments like the Guqin and Guzheng, expressing their inner thoughts with melodious notes; others enjoyed playing wind instruments like the Dizi and Xiao, letting their clear sounds echo in the air; still others were skilled at percussion instruments like drums and gongs, stimulating vitality and passion through strong rhythms.
In the world of music, people fully unleashed their creativity and imagination.
They composed beautiful and moving tunes, which were sung in the streets and alleys, becoming shared memories and cultural heritage.
As time went by, instrument-making techniques also continuously improved and developed.
People invented more types of instruments, making musical expression richer and more diverse.
From simple bamboo flutes to complex orchestras, each instrument showcased the crystallization of human wisdom.
Music also integrated into people's daily lives. During festive gatherings, everyone would sing and dance together.
When celebrating festivals, joyful music would lift people's spirits, and all worries and unhappiness would be cast aside.
One day, Fuxi was inspecting the various tribes. He arrived at one tribe and found the people there distressed about irrigating their farmland.
They relied on rainwater to water their crops, but recent droughts and lack of rain had caused the crops to wither.
Fuxi pondered for a moment and thought of a solution. He taught the people to dig irrigation ditches and divert river water to irrigate the farmland.
The people responded enthusiastically and actively participated in the water conservancy construction.
Soon after, clear ditches crisscrossed the fields, and a continuous supply of water nourished the parched land.
Crops regained their vitality, and the hope of a bountiful harvest ignited in people's hearts.
Fuxi's wisdom and leadership were once again evident. He not only focused on the material well-being of his people but also on agricultural development and the rational utilization of resources.
This initiative greatly increased the grain output of various tribes, earning Fuxi even more respect and gratitude from the people.
However, this matter plunged Fuxi into deep thought.
He couldn't help but wonder how wonderful it would be if there was a way to know the future weather conditions in advance!
This way, people could arrange their lives and work reasonably according to the changes in the weather.
If they could foresee sunny days, people could go out to work with peace of mind; if it were cloudy or rainy, they would need to take precautions against the rain to avoid unnecessary losses.
This idea took root deeply in Fuxi's heart, and he decided to find a method to predict the weather.
Thus, Fuxi began to carefully observe the natural phenomena around him, hoping to find some clues.
For example, the principle of yin and yang overcoming each other, but he hit a bottleneck here and could not progress further.
Xuandu knew why, so he returned to Kunlun Mountain Eight Sceneries Palace.
"Teacher, Fuxi is currently preparing to create the Eight Trigrams, but without the River Diagram and Luo Shu, there has been no progress," Xuandu said to Taiqing Laozi with his hands clasped, reporting on Fuxi's recent situation.
"Xuandu, you may return. I will personally go to the North Sea," Taiqing Laozi said before heading to the North Sea.
Taiqing Laozi arrived at the North Sea, and Kunpeng in the Demon Master Palace sensed his presence.
Kunpeng immediately appeared before Taiqing Laozi, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Saint Taiqing. I did not expect your arrival and apologize for not welcoming you properly. I beg for your forgiveness, Saint."
"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, I have come to borrow an item from you. I hope you will lend it to me," Taiqing said directly, getting straight to the point.
Kunpeng really wanted to refuse, but the other party was a Saint, and everyone below a Saint was like an ant.
Kunpeng said, "May I ask what item the Saint wishes to borrow?"
"The River Diagram and Luo Shu," Taiqing Laozi said.
Kunpeng reluctantly took out the River Diagram and Luo Shu and handed them to Taiqing Laozi, then asked, "May I ask how long Saint Taiqing will borrow them for?"
"I will return them within a hundred years," Taiqing Laozi said and left immediately.
After obtaining the River Diagram and Luo Shu, Taiqing Laozi handed them over to Great Master Xuandu.
Great Master Xuandu found a spirit turtle and placed the River Diagram and Luo Shu on its back.
Then, he released the spirit turtle back into the river, letting it swim freely.
Fuxi was lost in thought and unknowingly walked to the riverbank. He saw the River Diagram and Luo Shu on the spirit turtle's back. He gazed at them, pondering their mysteries intently.
Time flowed, and Fuxi finally comprehended the profound mysteries within the River Diagram and Luo Shu.
He used Yin and Yang as a foundation, combined with the laws of change in heaven, earth, and all things, to create the Primordial Eight Trigrams: Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui.
The birth of the Eight Trigrams astonished everyone. It contained endless wisdom and power, capable of predicting weather and guiding people's lives.
Fuxi then established the Twenty-four Solar Terms, so that humanity could better predict the weather.
From then on, Fuxi's reputation grew even more renowned, and his wisdom spread throughout the Nine Provinces. People held him in awe, and under his leadership, the Huaxu Tribe grew stronger day by day.
From this point on, people no longer called Fuxi the Great Leader, but the Co-Lord.
Su Mu saw that Fuxi's merits were complete, and the second Human Sovereign, the Earth Sovereign Shennong, was about to descend.
