Guangchengzi's Disdain, The Dim Lotus Lantern
Fuxi's appearance was unexpected. Both the Human Race and the powerful beings of other races felt it was unbelievable. They did not expect that Fuxi would take the initiative to help the Human Race fight against the Chan Sect.
"Heh, Fuxi has a good plan. He wants to take this opportunity to show off, win the recognition of the Human Race, and eventually obtain a saintly position?" Zhurong said with a sneer, believing that he had seen through Fuxi's little scheme.
Qiangliang and the others remained silent and ignored him.
"As expected of Emperor Xi, he hasn't changed at all. He's still the same, a man of great principle, and the first to step forward," Jimeng said with a sigh.
Baize nodded slightly, waving his feather fan, a look of reminiscence flashing in his eyes. It was the same back in the demon race. It's a pity that Fuxi was good in every way except that his cultivation was a bit lacking, and he couldn't keep up.
Otherwise, if he had controlled the demon race, their Fate might not have ended up in such a tragic state.
The appearance of Fuxi at the altar on Mount Shouyang had a significant impact on many powerful Human Race.
They all knew Fuxi's origins, but they never expected him to volunteer to fight for the Human Race.
Cangwu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Fellow Daoist Fuxi, this person possesses immense magical power; I'm afraid..."
"It's alright, leave it to me." Fuxi smiled slightly, not caring at all.
Upon hearing this, Cangwu said nothing more. He knew in his heart that Fuxi was indeed stronger than him.
"Then... Fellow Daoist, please be careful." Cangwu nodded and stepped back. Regardless of anything else, from this moment on, Fuxi had gained his approval.
They are far better than those who are reincarnated as humans, harboring other motives and malicious intentions.
The fact that Fuxi stepped forward at this time is enough to prove that he still cares about the Human Race.
Guangchengzi's face fell. In front of him, they kept changing the person, and even changed to a bigger one.
He had naturally heard of Fuxi, the former giant of the demon race who was now a member of the Human Race.
Fortunately, he was no longer the Fuxi of the past; otherwise, he would have been no match for him and would have turned and fled long ago.
But now, Fuxi has been reincarnated as a human and is cultivating again, and his former advantages have vanished.
Guangchengzi sneered inwardly. He possessed the Heaven-Overturning Seal, and even the current Fuxi might not be his match.
Suddenly, Guangchengzi felt a surge of joy. Fuxi's reputation was immense; if he could defeat him, he could regain all the face his Chan Sect had lost.
This is far better than defeating an unknown Human Race soldier.
"Fuxi! Since you have agreed to fight in his place, then please do so." Guangchengzi, having figured everything out, immediately spoke up, as if afraid that Fuxi would change his mind.
"Please!"
Fuxi nodded slightly, his figure rising into the air silently and without any great commotion; everything seemed calm and peaceful.
"Om!"
Guangchengzi made his move. After a brief test, he unleashed a powerful burst of magic, which surged forth like a long, rolling river.
With a wave of his sleeve, Fuxi stirred up the winds and clouds of heaven and earth to launch a counterattack, and the two sides clashed.
The immortals of the Chan Sect watched intently, extremely surprised by Fuxi's appearance, fearing that something unexpected might have happened.
Randeng saw through the thoughts of the immortals and immediately chuckled, slowly saying, "Fellow disciples, there is no need to worry. Although Fuxi was an ancient great power, that is already a thing of the past."
"Right now, Fuxi is just a Human Race, and compared to Junior Brother Guangchengzi, he has no advantage whatsoever."
Guangchengzi was the first immortal to ring the bell at the Jade Void Palace. He was deeply loved and cultivated by Yuanshi Tianzun, who gave him the best of everything.
Both being at the peak of the Daluo Golden Immortal realm, Randeng believed that Guangchengzi would not lose to the reincarnated Fuxi.
In particular, Guangchengzi also possessed the most powerful magic weapon among them— the Heaven-Overturning Seal.
Compared to Fuxi, he had every advantage; he couldn't think of any reason why he would lose.
The immortals felt much relieved after hearing the explanation from Vice Master Randeng.
What you said was indeed very reasonable and well-founded, like a sudden awakening.
They were immersed in the past, thinking of Fuxi's past glory, when Fuxi was a giant of the demon race, ruling over a region.
Many of them are still liquid, or still unknown nobodys.
But times have changed. Talented people emerge in Primordial World generation, and new people replace the old.
Fuxi is outdated.
The lingering power of the past proves nothing.
With this thought, their confidence grew, and they gazed at the distant battlefield, eager to witness with their own eyes the glorious scene of Guangchengzi defeating the old gods and becoming famous.
As fellow Chan Sect Disciple, they felt honored.
At this moment, the battle between Guangchengzi and Fuxi has passed the probing phase.
Both sides now have a general understanding of each other.
"Fuxi, you are far worse than I imagined. Have you really fallen so low after losing your innate foundation?"
"What a pity, what a shame!" Guangchengzi shook his head slightly, his face full of regret, as if he wished he could go back to the past and have a fair battle with Fuxi.
"Junior, it's not too late to say these things after you defeat me," Fuxi replied expressionlessly and indifferently.
Guangchengzi's eyes sharpened, and the Heaven-Overturning Seal in his hand emitted a blazing divine light. "You asked for this."
He finally resorted to his magic weapon, determined to end the battle quickly.
Seeing this, Fuxi no longer concealed his abilities, and a bright lamp appeared in his hand. The lamp was nine inches tall and pure white, just like ice and snow.
Its shape resembles a blooming lotus, as large as a large bowl, and the lotus heart is the wick of the lamp.
However, at this moment, it was somewhat dim and lackluster, as if a bright pearl had been covered in dust.
Guangchengzi chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist Fuxi, do you intend to use this thing to block my Heaven-Overturning Seal?"
He naturally knew the origin of this lamp; it was the Lotus Lantern, one of the Four Great Spiritual Lamps.
However, the lamp's wick is gone, rendering it powerless and practically useless.
In its prime, the Lotus Lantern might have been able to rival the Heaven-Overturning Seal, but how could the now-ruined Lotus Lantern possibly be a match for it?
Outside the battlefield, when Randeng saw Fuxi take out the Lotus Lantern, he immediately chuckled, "The Lotus Lantern, the foremost of the Four Great Spiritual Lamps, loses its power by less than one-tenth without its wick."
"From now on... the foremost of the four great spirit lamps should be the Coffin Lantern."
Randeng smiled, but thought to himself.
Why is the Coffin Lantern placed first? Because the Coffin Lantern is his natal magic weapon!
Holding the dim and lifeless Lotus Lantern, Fuxi remained unfazed by Guangchengzi's skepticism.
He gently stroked the Lotus Lantern, as if trying to soothe it.
"The lamp is a good lamp, it's just temporarily covered in dust, but the time is almost up."
"It should be lit up by now..."
Fuxi spoke in a low voice, and when he uttered the last word, his expression became extremely solemn. He placed his palm on the lotus-shaped lamp head and made a forceful stroke.
"Hiss..."
A streak of blood-red light shot out, becoming the most stunning color in the world.
Fuxi's blood was poured onto the Lotus Lantern, quickly staining it. The next moment, the Lotus Lantern shook violently, having absorbed all the blood.
"Boom!"
A vast aura emanated from the lamp, and the long-vanished wick began to slowly regenerate.
Instantly, boundless brilliance erupted, like the first ray of light at the beginning of time, illuminating the land of Human Race.
