Fuxi Attains Enlightenment, Humanity's Martial Path Established

Based on his memories from his past life, Su Mu arrived at the tribe where Shennong was about to be born in advance.

This was a mysterious and ancient tribe named the Lieshan Tribe.

The name was filled with power and majesty, as if hinting at the tribe's glory and honor throughout the long river of history.

The Lieshan Tribe lived on a vast piece of land, coexisting harmoniously with nature, surviving by hunting and farming.

Living in the tribe was a beautiful and kind young girl named Nü Deng.

One night, as darkness fell and the stars twinkled, Nü Deng drifted off to sleep.

In her dream, she found herself in a secluded valley, surrounded by dense forests and clear streams.

Nü Deng strolled along the valley, feeling the gentle breeze caress her cheeks, her heart filled with immense joy.

Suddenly, she noticed a giant Lingzhi ahead, emitting a captivating glow.

The Lingzhi was tall and stout, standing there like a small mountain.

Its cap was a vibrant red, adorned with exquisite patterns, exuding a mystical aura.

Nü Deng was deeply captivated by the sight before her and couldn't help but approach the Lingzhi for a closer look.

She felt the warm power emanating from the Lingzhi, making her feel incredibly comfortable. She reached out and gently touched the surface of the Lingzhi, its soft texture intoxicating her.

After being touched by her, the Lingzhi transformed into a stream of light and entered Nü Deng's body.

When Nü Deng woke up, she told her father, the Lieshan Chieftain, about her dream. Her father listened but didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just an ordinary dream.

A few months later, Nü Deng surprisingly became pregnant. However, the tribe didn't say much this time, as Co-Lord Fuxi's mother had a similar experience.

The people of the tribe took great care of Nü Deng, firmly believing that the child in her womb was a great sage of the human race.

When Nü Deng was eleven months pregnant, Su Mu appeared before the Lieshan Chieftain.

He said, "This humble Taoist, Su Mu, has a connection with the child in your daughter's womb. I have come to take him as my disciple."

Upon hearing it was Su Mu, everyone quickly bowed, "Greetings, Immortal Su Mu." All humans knew that Su Mu was the foremost disciple under the Saint Mother Nuwa of the Human Sect.

"It would be excellent for the Immortal to take him as a disciple. However, my daughter has been pregnant for eleven months. Will it take twelve years like Co-Lord Fuxi?" the Lieshan Chieftain asked.

"Now," Su Mu replied.

"Uh, what does the Immortal mean?" the Lieshan Chieftain asked, just as Nü Deng was struck by a wave of abdominal pain.

The midwife saw the situation and knew she was about to give birth, quickly taking her back to her room.

Everything was ready, so there was no need for further preparation.

With a 'wow', a new life was born into this world.

His cries were loud and clear, as if announcing his arrival to the world.

Everyone gathered around, their faces filled with joy and anticipation.

This little life was Shennong Shi. From birth, he displayed an extraordinary temperament, his small body radiating an innate majesty and wisdom.

His eyes were bright and clear, revealing a curiosity and desire to explore the surrounding world.

At this moment, a celestial phenomenon occurred: Purple Qi Comes From The East For Thirty Thousand Miles.

Holding the infant, the Lieshan Chieftain asked Su Mu, "Please, immortal, bestow a name upon him."

Su Mu said, "Let him be called Shennong."

Shennong, as usual, could speak at one year old, run at three, and possessed extensive knowledge by five. Shennong followed Su Mu from a young age, receiving his tutelage.

From childhood, Shennong had a deep interest and exceptional talent in Pharmacology.

He loved observing nature from a young age, particularly delving into the growth habits, morphological characteristics, and medicinal value of various plants.

Gifted and possessing both wisdom and courage, at 16 years old, he demonstrated extraordinary leadership and bravery, successfully succeeding the Lieshan Chieftain.

This decision was not easy, but with his firm belief, outstanding wisdom, and sense of responsibility towards the tribe, he won the trust and support of everyone.

Co-Lord Fuxi, in the ancestral land, heard of Shennong's deeds and conducted an investigation.

After passing the tests, Fuxi prepared to pass on the position of Co-Lord at Mount Tai.

At the summit of Mount Tai, the weather was beautiful, with clouds rolling and unfurling. Shennong arrived at the peak with Su Mu accompanying him.

Fuxi had been waiting for a long time. He looked at Shennong with kind eyes, full of expectation.

He had reigned as the Human Co-Lord for a thousand years and had finally found a suitable successor.

Fuxi handed Shennong the token symbolizing the Co-Lord's authority and said solemnly, "From this day forward, you are the Human Co-Lord. I hope you can lead humanity towards prosperity and flourishing."

Shennong took the token, feeling the heavy responsibility. He faced the mountains and made a vow, "I, Shennong, hereby vow not to fail the trust of Senior Fuxi and to strive for the welfare of humanity."

Following Shennong's oath, brilliant rays of light appeared in the sky, with auspicious energy flowing in streams. The crowd cheered and rejoiced, celebrating the birth of the new Co-Lord.

Su Mu stepped forward, holding the Kongtong Seal, and declared loudly, "Fuxi's virtue has greatly benefited all people under heaven. He tamed beasts, created rites and music, comprehended the Eight Trigrams, and unified the various human tribes. He was unanimously elected as the first Co-Lord. Such achievements are admirable and he should be honored as the Human Heavenly Sovereign!"

He looked at the crowd, his gaze firm and bright, and continued, "Today, we bear witness, and may heaven and earth attest to it."

After speaking, he raised the Kongtong Seal in his hand and swung it forcefully towards the sky. Instantly, a dazzling light shot out from the seal, piercing the heavens.

Rumbling, a vast Golden Cloud of Merit appeared in the sky. The merit was divided into four.

Six-tenths entered Fuxi's body, instantly raising Fuxi's cultivation from the early, middle, late, and peak stages of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal to the early, middle, late, and peak stages of Golden Immortal of the Origin. Finally, it reached the Sub-Saint realm before stopping.

Two-tenths entered Great Master Xuandu's body, allowing him to break through the peak stage of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal and reach the early stage of Quasi-Saint. Xuandu was overjoyed; he was now a Quasi-Saint expert.

One-tenth of the merit entered Fuxi's Companion Spirit Treasure Fuxi Qin, transforming it into a Supreme Innate Merit Spirit Treasure.

The final one-tenth flew to the North Sea Demon Master Palace and entered the River Diagram and Luo Shu, making them Supreme Innate Merit Spirit Treasures. Kunpeng was ecstatic: "A win without effort, haha."

Next, Taiqing Laozi's voice transmission was heard: "The karma is settled."

Kunpeng wanted to cry but held back his tears, saying, "Gaining merit for free is also very good."

Shennong returned to the capital and officially took over the affairs of the Co-Lord.

One day, his subordinates reported that the survival rate of the crops people usually planted was low, and many areas had no harvest.

Shennong had no good solution and asked Su Mu, "Teacher, what should we do?"

Su Mu smiled slightly and took out the Five Grains Seeds. Su Mu then realized that this was when the system rewards were meant to be used.

Su Mu said to Shennong, "These are the Five Grains Seeds: Rice, Millet, Ji, Wheat, Beans. Try these."

Shennong took the Five Grains Seeds and left. After Shennong distributed them and conducted experiments, the survival rate was very high, and the Five Grains became popular throughout the human race.

With the food problem solved, Shennong encountered other issues. At this time, a subordinate carried a tribesman to find Shennong.

"Co-Lord, this tribesman was poisoned by accidentally eating a plant. There are many unknown plants around each tribe, and accidental ingestion is common. Some are not poisonous and are fine to eat, but poisonous ones cause poisoning," the subordinate said.

Shennong had the subordinate take the poisoned tribesman for treatment.

Shennong found Su Mu, "Teacher, I plan to identify all the plants for the tribesmen, so they can recognize which plants are poisonous and which are not."

Su Mu said, "Go ahead. I look forward to your results." As Shennong left, Su Mu sent a Wood Origin into Shennong's body to prevent him from being poisoned during his journey.

After Shennong left, Su Mu considered that he could create a cultivation technique for the human race during this time, a technique belonging solely to the human race.

Without delay, Su Mu began creating the cultivation technique, using himself as a reference.

While Su Mu was creating the cultivation technique for the human race, Shennong tasted various herbs. Everywhere he went, he recorded any different plants he saw and personally tasted them to see their effects.

During this process, he fainted many times from eating poisonous plants. Fortunately, Su Mu had given Shennong the Wood Origin, preventing him from dying from the poison.

Su Mu's cultivation technique was also nearing completion. The technique was divided into the Mortal Realm and the Martial Realm.

The Mortal Realm included Body Tempering, Bone Forging, Tendon Transformation, and Meridian Nourishing.

The Martial Realm included Martial Disciple Realm (Earth Immortal), Martial Master Realm (Heavenly Immortal), Martial General Realm (True Immortal), Martial King Realm (Mystic Immortal), Martial Emperor Realm (Golden Immortal), Martial Venerable Realm (Primordial Unity Golden Immortal), Martial God Realm (Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal), and Martial Saint Realm (Quasi-Saint/Golden Immortal of the Origin).

Su Mu named it the True Martial Scripture. After Shennong finished tasting all the herbs and returned, Su Mu had Shennong promote the True Martial Scripture to the entire human race.

Everyone cultivating the True Martial Scripture experienced a qualitative transformation; this cultivation method was highly compatible with the Human Race.

Seeing that all the Human Race were cultivating the True Martial Scripture, Su Mu proclaimed loudly, "I, Su Mu of the Human Race, sensing the difficult path and arduous cultivation of the Human Race, have created the True Martial Scripture and promoted it among the Human Race. The Human Race shall establish the Martial Dao, and the Human Race must strive for self-improvement, as the Great Dao bears witness."

The Great Dao was moved and sent down a trial, the Great Dao Divine Thunder. Su Mu saw the divine thunder descend and proactively met the cleaving divine thunder.

Su Mu cultivated the Nine Revolutions Divine Art, his physical body and primordial spirit both at the Golden Immortal of the Origin realm, unafraid of the Great Dao Divine Thunder. Su Mu withstood nine bolts of Great Dao Divine Thunder, and the Great Dao then granted Su Mu's request.

Boundless Great Dao Merit surged forth, illuminating the entire prehistoric sky.

From within that merit, nine stone tablets actually appeared. Initially, the stone tablets were like mountains, but as they slowly approached Su Mu, they gradually shrank to about thirty feet in size.

When they landed around Su Mu, they actually emitted the aura of a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. All the Great Dao Merit entered the Martial Dao Steles.

"Those whose names are on the Martial Dao Steles can all enjoy the Martial Dao Destiny - Martial Fortune Flourishing." This was the inscription on the only golden stone tablet among the nine Martial Dao Steles.

The Great Dao vanished, and Su Mu also put away the nine Martial Dao Steles.

Su Mu established the Martial Dao for the Human Race. The Human Race, grateful for his achievements, called him the Martial Ancestor.

Shennong also compiled his life's learning into a book, named the Shennong Ben Cao Jing, laying a solid foundation for the development of medicine in later generations.

Shennong had completed his mission. He only needed to find a successor before he could pass on the position of Co-Lord.

At this very moment, Nuwa, who had been in seclusion cultivating on Shouyang Mountain, had re-comprehended the Law of Creation.

Nuwa had already created the Human Race using the Law of Creation and had comprehended fifty percent of the law's power. After another thousand years of focused comprehension, she had comprehended eighty percent of the Law of Creation.

With only twenty percent remaining, she would comprehend one hundred percent of the Law of Creation's power, fully control the Law of Creation, and become a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin.

At this moment, she was already at the peak of the Golden Immortal of the Origin realm. She was comprehending with her entire being. Fuxi's enlightenment caused a dense surge of destiny to flow towards Nuwa. Su Mu's establishment of the Martial Dao also caused Martial Dao Destiny to flow towards Nuwa.

Nuwa was the Human Race Holy Mother and the Human Religion Leader, thus she could control all the destiny of the Human Race. Su Mu, as Nuwa's disciple, also enjoyed the destiny of the Martial Dao.

"The Human Race Destiny has increased so much. Could it be that Elder Brother has attained enlightenment? That's wonderful! I shall use this surge of destiny to comprehend the Law of Creation," Nuwa murmured.

Nuwa used the power of destiny to comprehend the last twenty percent of the law's power, successfully breaking through the bottleneck and her cultivation smoothly reaching the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm.

Nuwa clenched her fist slightly, feeling the powerful strength within her. So this was the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm? Its power was even greater than the Heavenly Dao Saint realm.

Nuwa felt that her current strength at the first heaven of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm could absolutely crush Primordial Lord at the third heaven of the Heavenly Dao Saint realm.

Nuwa transmitted her voice to Su Mu: "Disciple, your master has successfully broken through to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm. What should we do next?"

Nuwa knew that her current height was entirely due to Su Mu. If she hadn't been able to hear his thoughts, she wouldn't have known some secrets.

Therefore, Nuwa trusted and relied on Su Mu very much, discussing everything with him.

Su Mu was very happy to hear Nuwa's transmission. If his master could escape the control of the Heavenly Dao, wouldn't that mean he could also escape the control of the Heavenly Dao? He could also plan some things now.

Su Mu replied to Nuwa: "Master, you don't need to reveal yourself in the prehistoric world yet. Disciple suspects that when the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors all attain enlightenment, the Heavenly Dao side might make a move against the Human Race."
