Boom!!!
Above the nine heavens, Purple Qi Coming from the East the east for three hundred million miles!
It is not the Heavenly Dao Merit, but the Great Dao Merit!
The vast and boundless Mysterious Yellow Merit Qi descended from the dark heights like an inverted waterfall, dyeing the entire Blood Sea with a golden glow!
The magnitude and richness of their merit far surpasses that of Nuwa Creates Humans and the Three Pure Ones Establish Sect!
After all, Nuwa Creates Humans to complete the cycle of life, and the Three Pure Ones Establish Sect Great Wilderness, were all within the framework of the Heavenly Dao.
This Houtu, Houtu awakened the dormant Earth Dao of the Billion Yuan Society, completed the Primordial Law Foundation, and established the Cycle of Reincarnation Order.
This is a merit that touches upon the very essence of the Great Dao!
"Buzz..."
Amidst the golden glow of merit, the Cycle of Reincarnation Giant Seal undergoes another transformation.
The six-colored light solidified into a tangible form, and on its surface appeared scenes of mountains, rivers, and the Reincarnation of life and death of all beings. Furthermore, clear Earth Dao Law Patterns spread out, completely connecting with the Primordial Land Origin.
Houtu stood at the center of the merit, her pale yellow dress fluttering in the wind, her aura rising steadily!
Quasi-Saint Peak... Earth Dao Sage...
"Boom!!!"
A vast aura, surpassing even that of Quasi-Saint yet unlike that of Heavenly Dao Sage, erupted from Houtu's body!
The Earth Dao Sage Position is achieved!
" Empress Houtu have mercy!"
On the Great Wilderness Land, countless creatures felt a sense of connection and knelt in worship.
Those weaker races, struggling and living on the brink of extinction during the great calamity, were especially moved to tears at this moment.
Reincarnation is established, and the True Spirit has a place to return to; even if the body dies, there is still a chance for reincarnation.
This is Great Wilderness vitality unlike anything seen since the World Creation!
" Earth Dao Sage..."
Kunlun Mountain, Jade Void Palace.
The Yuanshi Tianzun suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes swirling with Jade Purity Immortal Light, staring intently at the pale yellow figure standing in the golden glow of merit in the direction of the Netherworld, his face ashen.
He anticipated that Houtu's union with the Dao would bring Great Merit, but he never expected... that he would directly ascend to the Earth Dao Sage Position!
Moreover, this holy position is not bestowed by Heavenly Dao, but Great Dao Recognition!
What does this mean?
This means that although Houtu is Sage, she is not Heavenly Dao Restraint, but holds the power of the Earth Dao and maintains the Cycle of Reincarnation Order!
What alarmed Yuanshi even more was that... the aura of this Earth Dao Sage was faintly similar to the Zenith Heaven Dao of Xuandu!
They are not bound by the Heavenly Dao Restraint, and they all walk the Path of Transcendence!
" Xuandu... Houtu..."
Yuanshi gritted his teeth and whispered, the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his sleeve humming and trembling:
"One Zenith Heaven, the other Earth Dao Sage... If these two join forces..."
He dared not think any further.
With Tongtian in the Interception Sect, the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation cannot be broken without the Four Sages.
If we also add Xuandu, the Zenith Heaven, Houtu, the Earth Dao Sage...
That Great Wilderness order will be completely out of control!
"We must expedite the calamity!"
A murderous intent surged in Yuanshi's eyes. With a flicker, he transformed into a beam of Jade Purity Immortal Light and sped toward Western Mount Sumeru.
We can't wait any longer!
The West, Mount Sumeru.
Jieyin and Zhunti stood side by side by the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, their faces showing even greater suffering.
" The Earth Dao Sage... the Merits of Reincarnation..."
The Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree in Zhunti's hand dimmed, and his voice became hoarse.
"Senior brother, the magnitude of this merit far surpasses that of our sect when it was founded..."
Jieyin the Buddha's name softly, a deep sense of apprehension flashing beneath the compassion in his eyes:
" Houtu merged with the Dao, Reincarnation was established, and the Earth Dao awakened... This is an act to complete the Great Wilderness Foundation, and the Great Dao naturally Generous Gift."
"Only..."
He paused, gazing towards the direction of the underworld, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
"With Houtu's ascension to Houtu and Xuandu's rise to power, the Interception Sect was like a tiger with wings..."
"When will we, the Westerners, be able to advance eastward?"
His tone was filled with deep resentment.
The West is barren and lacks vitality.
They painstakingly cultivated the Hundred Million Dollar Society, founded the Western Sect, established Eight Hundred Side Doors, and only with great difficulty did they manage to accumulate a little foundation.
But what about the East now?
The Three Pure Ones Establish Sect Nuwa Creates Humans already signified immense fortune.
Now we have Xuandu, a Zenith Heaven, and Houtu, Earth Dao Sage of the Houtu Path...
The gap between East and West is widening!
"The Great Calamity... We must make the Great Calamity erupt as soon as possible!"
Zhunti gritted his teeth, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes:
"Only when Calamity Qi reigns and the secrets of Heavenly Secret are in chaos can we seize the opportunity to profit from the chaos and claim the fortune of the East!"
"Good."
The Jieyin nodded slowly:
" The Yuanshi is approaching; this time... we should devise a good plan with him."
As soon as he finished speaking, two golden beams shot into the sky from Mount Sumeru, heading towards Kunlun.
Thirty-Three Heavens Outside, Wa Huang Palace.
Nuwa sat slumped on her cloud bed, her Seven-Colored Rosy Clouds long since dimmed like a candle flickering in the wind.
She stared intently at the golden glow of merit in the direction of the Netherworld, at the pale yellow figure Samsara Seal, her resentment almost tangible.
" The Earth Dao Sage... the Merits of Reincarnation..."
Nuwa's voice was hoarse, each word seeming to burn her throat:
"Through my creation of humans Mending the Heavens the heavens, my Immeasurable Merit, and I have Heavenly Dao Sage..."
"You, Houtu, merely Unite Body with Dao and established a Reincarnation... yet you can become a saint?"
"Why... why?!"
The last three words were almost squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying with them a jealousy and resentment that had been suppressed for millions of years.
She could clearly sense that the merits of Houtu when she became a saint far surpassed those of her own Houtu then.
And that merit... originates from the Great Dao!
This means that Houtu's foundation for her holy position is more solid and more... favored by the Great Dao than her Heavenly Dao holy position!
" Xuandu... Houtu..."
Nuwa slowly clenched her fist, her nails digging into her palm. Dark golden holy blood trickled down her wrist, burning wisps of blue smoke onto the cloud bed.
"One of you has deposed me from my position as the Holy Mother, and the other has stolen my merits and glory..."
This feud... will never end!
Shouyang Mountain, Eight Sceneries Palace.
Laozi sat cross-legged before the alchemical furnace, his face ashen and his breath weak.
He slowly raised his eyes and looked towards the direction of the underworld. Purple energy swirled in his eyes, but the Pure and Non-Action, replaced by a bottomless complexity.
Houtu sainthood, established the Reincarnation, and awakened the Earth Dao...
All of this should have been an opportunity for the Mystic Gate Flourished sect).
With the Heaven Earth Human Three Daos standing side by side, and the Great Wilderness completing its foundation, the Xuanmen Fortune) will surely experience an unprecedented surge.
But now...
Laozi lowered his head, looking at the broken fragment of the Human Sect Dao Fruit Fragments in his palm, a bitter smile appearing on his lips.
The Human Sect has been abolished, and the Holy Mother has been beheaded.
Xuandu and he had become mortal enemies; the Interception Sect and Houtu had a close relationship...
With this resurgence of the Earth Dao, and the accumulation of merit in the Reincarnation... how much benefit will his Laozi receive?
One wrong step leads to another...
Laozi sighed deeply and slowly closed his eyes.
The purple aura enveloped the mangled body, causing it to sink completely into the depths of the alchemy furnace.
Golden Ao Island, Biyou Palace.
The Sect Leader Tongtian stood atop the palace, gazing towards the underworld, and clapped his hands in laughter:
"Well done! Well done, Houtu! Well done, Reincarnation!"
The laughter was hearty, filled with undisguised satisfaction.
Houtu merged with the Dao, Reincarnation was established, and the Earth Dao awakened—this was an unprecedented upheaval in the Great Wilderness, and also an unprecedented opportunity for the Interception Sect!
Xuandu had already pointed out that only when the Heaven Earth Human Three Daos stand side by side can there be perfection.
Now that the Earth Dao has awakened, Reincarnation has been established, the Primordial Law Foundation has been completed, and the Heavenly Dao Pressure has been greatly reduced.
This is also a great thing for him, a Heavenly Dao Sage!
The bottleneck to the Saint Realm may be loosened as a result!
More importantly...
Tongtian's gaze swept towards the direction of Lingyun Peak.
Xuandu has a past connection with Houtu. Now that Houtu become a saint and Reincarnation has been established, he will surely be able to gain tremendous benefits from it!
At that time, the Interception Sect will have Tongtian in charge, Xuandu, a Zenith Heaven, and Houtu, a Earth Dao Sage, secretly providing support...
In the In the Great Wilderness, who could possibly subdue it?
" The Immortal-Slaying Four Swords, rise!"
With a flick of his sleeve, Tongtian produced a sound like the ringing of a sword:
Congratulations on the attainment of Empress Houtu!
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
Four earth-shattering sword cries once again resounded throughout Golden Ao Island!
Immortal-Slaying, Immortal-Execution, Trapping Immortal, Absolute Immortal.
The four swords were drawn simultaneously, their Sword Intent soaring to the sky, creating endless killing phenomena, yet without a trace of hostility, only the purest congratulations!
The Sword Light illuminated the heavens, proclaiming the attitude of the Interception Sect to the Great Wilderness.
