Fuxi Reincarnates, Teacher of the Heavenly Sovereign

"The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors require guidance from a teacher. First, go find the Kongtong Seal. Once the Kongtong Seal appears, the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors will officially begin." After Dao Ancestor Hongjun finished speaking, he let the Six Sages leave the Purple Cloud Palace.

After leaving the Purple Cloud Palace, the Sages each dispatched their disciples to search with all their might for the whereabouts of the Kongtong Seal.

In Su Mu's Cave Dwelling on Shouyang Mountain, Su Mu was seated in the center. Before him, three drops of crystal-clear Pangu's Blood Essence, exuding an ancient aura, floated quietly.

These three drops of blood essence seemed to contain boundless vitality and power, filling the entire cave dwelling with an ancient and solemn atmosphere.

Su Mu took a deep breath, then immersed his mind completely, beginning to absorb and refine the Pangu's Blood Essence.

As the Nine Revolutions Divine Art circulated, the three drops of Pangu's Blood Essence gradually transformed into three torrents, flowing through his meridians and finally converging in his Dantian.

During this process, Su Mu felt an immense power surging within his body.

He carefully guided this power, allowing it to fuse with himself, continuously enhancing his cultivation.

Time ticked by, and when the last trace of Pangu's Blood Essence was completely refined, Su Mu opened his eyes, a brilliant light flashing within them.

At this moment, his aura became even more profound and restrained, as if containing infinite potential.

Early stage Golden Immortal of the Origin. Pangu's Blood Essence is indeed a good thing. Combined with the Nine Revolutions Divine Art, the cultivation has improved so rapidly.

What Su Mu didn't know was that the Nine Revolutions Divine Art was created by Great God Pangu himself and was originally suited for Great God Pangu. Su Mu also possessed Great God Pangu's blood essence, so they complemented each other, which is why his cultivation progressed so quickly.

"I didn't expect this seclusion breakthrough to take a thousand years. The era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors should have arrived by now. I need to find my teacher and ask about the situation." Su Mu exited his cave dwelling.

He saw a Human Youth standing outside the cave dwelling, and Su Mu asked, "Who are you?"

When the youth saw Su Mu emerge, a flicker of excitement and anticipation flashed in his eyes.

He immediately stood up and respectfully bowed to Su Mu, "Greetings, Senior Disciple Brother Su Mu! I am Bei Xuan, a new disciple accepted by the teacher."

Bei Xuan's tone carried respect for Su Mu, clearly holding a high evaluation of this Senior Disciple Brother.

His gaze was fixed on Su Mu, as if seeking more enlightenment and guidance from him.

Su Mu nodded slightly in response.

At this moment, Sui Ren Shi and the other two arrived, "Su Mu, you've finally come out of seclusion."

"Elder Brother Sui Ren, your cultivation has reached the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm," Su Mu asked, seeing their cultivation.

"Yes, Su Mu. Thanks to your Ginseng Fruit, we were able to break through to the early stage of Primordial Unity Golden Immortal," Zi Yi Shi said with a look of joy.

"Elder Brother, is there something you need?" Su Mu asked Sui Ren Shi.

"Su Mu, we found something on Shouyang Mountain and were planning to give it to you," Sui Ren Shi said.

"What are you giving me, Elder Brother?" Su Mu walked up to Sui Ren Shi.

Just then, Sui Ren Shi suddenly took out an item from his embrace.

This item looked very peculiar. Its shape was a regular square, giving it a sense of rigor and mystery.

Su Mu stared curiously at the item, wanting to see clearly what it was.

When he saw it clearly, he couldn't help but be greatly shocked! This was actually the legendary Kongtong Seal! This was a supreme treasure of the Human Race, capable of deposing and establishing Human Sovereigns.

After Su Mu took the Kongtong Seal, he accepted it.

Then, he cupped his hands in salute to Sui Ren Shi, You Chao Shi, and Zi Yi Shi, and said gratefully, "Thank you, my three elder brothers. This is the Kongtong Seal. It has great use for me personally, and it is also an extremely important treasure for the entire Human Race."

"Since it is of great use to you, then take it. I hope you will use it wisely," Sui Ren Shi said.

After the Three Ancestors left, Su Mu took out the Ginseng Fruit and said to Bei Xuan, "Junior Brother, take this Ginseng Fruit and hurry to cultivate. Only by improving your cultivation can we handle what comes next."

Bei Xuan cupped his hands, "Thank you, Senior Brother. I will go cultivate now." Watching Bei Xuan leave, Su Mu headed towards the mountaintop.

Arriving at the entrance of Shouyang Palace, he bowed and said, "Teacher, Su Mu requests an audience."

Nuwa opened her eyes and murmured, "My good disciple is finally out of seclusion." She then waved her hand to open the palace gate and transmitted a message to Su Mu, saying, "Come in."

Su Mu entered Shouyang Palace and walked before Nuwa, saying, "Greetings, Teacher. Has Teacher Haotian already become the new Heavenly Emperor?"

"Yes, Su Mu, your prediction was very accurate. Dao Ancestor Hongjun has indeed appointed Haotian as the Heavenly Emperor," Nuwa said with a smile.

"Teacher, since Haotian has been appointed Heavenly Emperor and will manage the Heavenly Court, he will definitely need personnel. We can send some of the Human Race to the Heavenly Court," Su Mu suggested to Nuwa. "This way, they can hold some positions in the Heavenly Court and also gain merit, which will be beneficial for the development of the Human Race."

"Su Mu, what you said is correct. Holding a position in the Heavenly Court can earn merit." After speaking to Su Mu, Nuwa said to Jin Feng, "Jin Feng, select some from the Human Race who have cultivated the immortal path and take them to the Heavenly Court. Tell Haotian that the Heavenly Court is newly established and will surely need personnel. Let these humans obey Haotian's command and help establish the Heavenly Court."

"Yes, Empress," Jin Feng went to select humans to enter the Heavenly Court.

After Jin Feng left, Su Mu directly took out the Kongtong Seal and said to Nuwa, "Teacher, I have obtained the Kongtong Seal. We can now discuss matters concerning the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."

Nuwa looked at the Kongtong Seal and was overjoyed, "My precious disciple, you are truly my lucky star."

Nuwa waved her hand, and a Creation Cushion appeared before Su Mu.

Su Mu then sat down. "Teacher, regarding the matter of my eldest martial brother's reincarnation, it will still require you to personally find Empress Houtu."

"Alright, once we have settled things with the Five Sages, I will go to the Underworld," Nuwa replied.

"Disciple, your eldest martial brother Fuxi will reincarnate as the Heavenly Sovereign. The Teacher of the Heavenly Sovereign will then be gone," Nuwa continued.

"Teacher, then for the Human Sovereign and the Earth Sovereign, let's choose the Earth Sovereign."

"Why?"

"Teacher, the Human Sovereign needs to integrate the Human Race, which will surely involve warfare and conflict. I fear it might incur karma."

Emperor Yu delineated the land and established the Nine Provinces, an act of immeasurable merit. However, the Sages wished to be the teacher of the Human Sovereign and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and this would require a price," Su Mu said.

"What my disciple says is reasonable. We shall proceed according to your words," Nuwa said after some thought.

"Then I shall go and discuss with the Five Sages," Nuwa said and departed.

As Dao Ancestor Hongjun had not convened the Six Saints, the Six Saints were discussing matters in Jade Void Palace.

Zhunti asked doubtfully, "Senior Sister Nuwa, have you found the Kongtong Seal? And now we are here to discuss matters?"

Nuwa nodded and said, "My eldest disciple has already found the Kongtong Seal. Now we can discuss the candidates for the teacher of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."

"My Human Sect wants the teacher of the Earth Sovereign and the teacher of Emperor Yu. You can discuss the rest, but it will not be given freely; an exchange is required," Nuwa added.

Taiqing Laozi spoke, "My Daoist Religion wants the teacher of the Heavenly Sovereign. Xuandu can be the teacher of the Heavenly Sovereign."

Primordial Lord then spoke, "My Chan Sect wants the teacher of the Human Sovereign. Guangchengzi can be the teacher of the Human Sovereign."

Tongtian said helplessly, "Since Elder Brother and Second Brother already have two of the Three Sovereigns, I want the positions of three Imperial Teachers."

Jieyin and Zhunti quickly said, "Senior Brother Tongtian, you can't take all of them for your Jie Sect. My Western Sect also needs two Imperial Teacher positions."

"My two junior brothers, it's not that I won't give them to you, but can you offer something in exchange? After all, your Western lands are so barren," Tongtian said to Jieyin and Zhunti.

"This..." Jieyin and Zhunti were momentarily speechless.

Taiqing Laozi asked, "Junior Sister Nuwa, what do you want?"

Hearing Taiqing Laozi's question, Nuwa looked at the Five Sages and said, "I want the Taiqing Alchemy Technique, the Yuqing Artifact Refining Technique, the Shangqing Formation Technique, and 30 Bodhi Seeds, 30 Merit Golden Lotus Seeds."

"What?" Hearing Nuwa's words, before the Three Pure Ones could say anything, Jieyin and Zhunti were the first to lose their composure.

"Senior Sister Nuwa, why don't you just rob us?" Zhunti was the first to lose his temper and shouted at Nuwa.

"If you don't want the qualification of Imperial Teacher, you can abstain," Nuwa said coldly to Zhunti.

Jieyin and Zhunti still wanted a qualification for Imperial Teacher, so they reluctantly agreed. With pained expressions, they produced 30 Bodhi Seeds and 30 Golden Lotus Seeds.

The Three Pure Ones also respectively produced the Taiqing Alchemy Technique, the Yuqing Artifact Refining Technique, and the Shangqing Formation Technique.

After Nuwa collected the items, she turned and left Jade Void Palace.

In Shouyang Palace, Nuwa sat in the main seat and looked at Su Mu, saying, "Su Mu, I no longer want to be controlled by the Heavenly Dao and Dao Ancestor Hongjun. As a Heavenly Dao Sage, I am always controlled by Dao Ancestor Hongjun."

"Teacher, do you intend to sever your Dao Fruit and walk the path of the Origin?" Su Mu asked.

"Yes, only a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal can avoid being arbitrarily controlled by Dao Ancestor Hongjun. Dao Ancestor Hongjun first favored the Three Pure Ones, and then helped the Demon Race slaughter the Human Race. My heart aches," Nuwa said with worry.

"Therefore, after the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors concludes and the Human Race becomes the absolute protagonist of heaven and earth, I wish to sever my Dao Fruit and re-cultivate to the Primordial Chaos Realm." Nuwa's voice was filled with unwavering resolve.

"Teacher, if you truly wish to tread the path of Primordial Chaos, it would be best to sever your Dao Fruit at the beginning of this tribulation." Su Mu advised.

"Why?"

"There are two reasons. Firstly, heavenly secrets are obscured during a tribulation. If Teacher severs your Dao Fruit, Dao Ancestor Hongjun's integration with the Dao will become unstable, causing him to deviate from the Dao Integration Realm.

Secondly, the Human Race's Destiny will reach its peak after the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors concludes, which can help Teacher's strength ascend to a higher level." Su Mu analyzed.

Nuwa lowered her gaze and pondered for a long time. "Very well, I shall follow your advice. Once Elder Brother Fuxi is reincarnated, I will sever my Dao Fruit."

She then addressed the people below, "Golden Phoenix, Bei Xuan, Lingzhuzi, after I enter seclusion, all matters will be handled by Senior Disciple Brother."

"Yes, Teacher (Empress)." The crowd replied.

After thousands of years of development, the Human Race's population had continuously increased, and their tribes had gradually grown stronger.

As time passed, the human tribes began to expand outwards from Shouyang Mountain, seeking more living space and resources.

East Sea Coast.

There was a small human tribe, peaceful and harmonious.

Sunlight filtered through the dense leaves, casting dappled shadows and giving a warm feeling.

At this moment, a lively and adorable young girl was happily darting through the forest, exploring every corner with boundless curiosity.

This girl was the daughter of the Huaxu Tribe leader—Hua Xu Shi.

Hua Xu Shi was clad in simple animal skins, but they could not conceal her innate beauty and vivacity.

Her eyes were as bright as stars, twinkling with infinite curiosity about the world; her smile was as warm as a spring breeze, instantly endearing her to others.

Currently, she was intently observing a colorful butterfly in flight, seemingly oblivious to everything around her.

Unbeknownst to her, she had followed it for a great distance and had unknowingly entered Leize Land.

As she walked, she saw a massive footprint ahead. Hua Xu Shi, filled with curiosity, entered the giant footprint to investigate.

She touched here, looked there, her curiosity piqued.

After an unknown amount of time, as her excitement and thrill subsided, the fatigue from her journey washed over her, and she lay down in the footprint and fell asleep.

When she awoke, the sky was already darkening. Hua Xu Shi exited the footprint and headed towards the Huaxu Tribe.

The people of the Huaxu Tribe lived their lives as usual. In the blink of an eye, three months passed, and Hua Xu Shi's belly had slightly protruded, clearly indicating she was pregnant.

Hua Xu Shi's change did not escape the notice of the tribe members. They knew Hua Xu Shi was unmarried and had not engaged in any intimate relations.

She was pregnant without having had intercourse, and everyone felt that Hua Xu Shi's belly contained a monster.

The tribe wanted to expel Hua Xu Shi from the tribe. Helpless, her father arranged for Hua Xu Shi to move out of the tribe and live in the mountains, where she built a thatched hut and was left to fend for herself.

Hua Xu Shi then lived in the mountains, only able to pick wild fruits to eat each day.

As her abdomen grew larger and her movements became inconvenient, she could no longer pick wild fruits to satisfy her hunger.

She came to the small stream beside the thatched hut and wept bitterly, lamenting the miserable fate of the fetus in her womb.

Great Master Xuandu, the chief disciple of Daoism, came to the mountains where Hua Xu Shi of the Huaxu Tribe lived and watched Hua Xu Shi live there.

Xuandu then instructed Pixiu to deliver a Peach of Immortality to Hua Xu Shi every day.

One day, Hua Xu Shi was sitting by the stream when she saw a creature with a dragon's head and a leopard's body appear before her.

Hua Xu Shi was so frightened by the sight of this creature that she froze on the spot. The creature placed a Peach of Immortality on the ground, nodded towards Hua Xu Shi, and then left.

It was only after the creature had been gone for a long while that Hua Xu Shi recovered from her shock.

Hua Xu Shi said, "Is... is that a dragon?"

Hua Xu Shi looked at the Peach of Immortality, thought for a moment, and then put it into her mouth. The Peach of Immortality melted upon contact with her tongue.

Instantly, Hua Xu Shi felt a sense of fullness. Hua Xu Shi was very excited and bowed in the direction the Pixiu had left: "Thank you, Dragon God."

Seven years passed in the blink of an eye. Human women typically give birth after ten months of pregnancy, but she had been pregnant for a full seven years.

She was also very scared, fearing that she was truly carrying a monster in her belly.

For seven years, Hua Xu Shi had wanted to ask Pixiu, but she never dared, so she never asked.

This time, for the sake of the fetus in her womb, she mustered her courage and asked.

Upon hearing her question, Pixiu replied, "I am the son of Ancestor Dragon. Pixiu was sent by an Immortal. I do not know your situation.

However, the Immortal once said that the fetus in your womb is a great sage of the human race, and is therefore extraordinary."

Hua Xu Shi wanted to ask where the Immortal was. Pixiu said, "The Immortal said he cannot tell you his name, but the fetus in your womb has a master-disciple connection with him. When your child is born, he will appear to take them as a disciple."

Three more years passed. The Huaxu Tribe learned that Hua Xu Shi had been pregnant for ten years without giving birth, that a Dragon God was sending her food, and that an Immortal had said the fetus in her womb was a great sage of the human race.

They then brought Hua Xu Shi back to the tribe. Pixiu still delivered a Peach of Immortality to Hua Xu Shi every day.

The tribe members saw that it was truly a Dragon God and could not help but respect that Immortal even more.

Another two years passed, and Hua Xu Shi felt unbearable abdominal pain, unable to help but cry out in pain.

The midwife, who had been taking care of her, knew immediately that she was about to give birth. She quickly called for people to arrange a room and prepare for the delivery.

In less than a moment, the entire tribe knew Hua Xu Shi was about to give birth. The tribal chief and several elders of the tribe came to Hua Xu Shi's room to wait.

After an unknown amount of time, a loud cry suddenly rang out from inside the room.

"Waa~"

The tribespeople gathered around the room became happy.

"Hua Xu Shi has finally given birth."

The instant the baby was born, a celestial phenomenon occurred. Purple qi came from the east for thirty thousand miles across the sky.

The Sages spoke in unison: "The Heavenly Sovereign has descended."

Xuandu arrived at the door of Hua Xu Shi's room and said to the tribal chief, "This humble Taoist is Great Master Xuandu. This child has a master-disciple fate with me. I have come to take him as my disciple."
