Although filled with doubt, Fuxi chose to retreat upon hearing Nuwa's words.

He also knew that forcing the issue would undoubtedly offend Jiu Feng, thus drawing out the Twelve Ancestral Witches and escalating a minor matter into a major war between the Witch and Demon Clans.

It wasn't worth it!

At this point in time, neither the Witch Clan nor the Demon Clan was prepared. If weighed carefully, the Demon Clan was still at a disadvantage.

It was truly not the time for a major war to break out!

"Fellow Daoist Jiu Feng, take care of yourself!"

Therefore, Fuxi merely uttered an ambiguous sentence before directly leaving the Witch Clan's territory.

"That was close!"

Xuan Qing's heart was still pounding with lingering fear.

But just as he thought he had escaped unscathed, he found his vision blurring and the world spinning. It felt as if an supreme power had enveloped his body.

"A Saint!"

As a direct disciple of a Saint, he had naturally witnessed the methods of Saints and knew very well that such a power, which left him utterly defenseless, could only come from a Saint.

"My master is Tongtian..."

Although he didn't know which Saint had acted against him, Xuan Qing instinctively reported his backing.

Unfortunately, before he could finish, he was teleported to a mysterious realm. Endless Creation Radiance began to pour uncontrollably into his physical body.

"Ah!"

He couldn't help but cry out in pleasure.

This was an evolution of his life level, akin to a snake transforming into a flood dragon, and a flood dragon transforming into a dragon. His physical body emitted sounds of thunder, greedily absorbing the substance of creation. He felt as if he had returned to the embrace of the Great Mother of Creation, being reborn within the Gate of Xuanpin. Boundless auspicious purple qi transformed into streams of light, forging for him a flawless Dao Body.

Amidst the endless divine radiance of creation, the Creation Yuan Gong began to circulate spontaneously. The "Forge of Creation" within his body erupted with unprecedented immortal light.

At this moment, he felt his bloodline surging, his innate potential improving, and his physical body, primordial spirit, and magic power all undergoing a transformation in an indescribable manner.

After an unknown amount of time, he slowly opened his eyes. He saw an innate divine being with a human head and a snake body smiling at him in the endless divine radiance of creation. Startled, he quickly bowed and said, "Human Race's Xuan Qing greets the Holy Mother!"

"Rise!"

A gentle voice echoed, as pleasant as a spring breeze, but Xuan Qing dared not show any disrespect. He didn't even dare to carefully examine his current state.

Because this was a Heavenly Dao Saint, and the creator of his current physical body – Nuwa!

He couldn't understand why this Human Race Holy Mother had suddenly brought him to this strange world.

If it were because of Fuxi, it would be fortunate enough if that person didn't come to settle the score with him!

How could she possibly bestow such a creation upon him?

However, caution was the best policy. Xuan Qing immediately spoke respectfully, "Praise be to the Holy Mother. Does the Holy Mother seek this child for any task?"

The Supreme Empress Wa immediately chuckled, "I don't have a son who can cause as much trouble as you! As for that ray of divine radiance of creation, consider it a reward for making my elder brother suffer a hidden loss! You cultivate the Great Dao of the three Saints – Taiqing, Yuqing, and Shangqing – and even attempt to merge them into one furnace. You, young as you are, have quite the ambition!"

"How interesting!"

Seeing that Nuwa had no intention of blaming him, Xuan Qing immediately began to flatter her, "Heaven is my witness, compared to the Holy Mother, my meager cultivation is like a firefly compared to the bright moon! I was fortunate enough to be accepted as a disciple by a Saint, and I fear disgracing the Holy Mother when I am out in the world, which is why I diligently cultivate every day!"

"The Holy Mother's virtue shines like the sun and moon, her abilities are unfathomable to gods and ghosts. She should be the Heavenly Venerate of Creation, blessing all beings, her sacred virtue sheltering all sentient beings in the world!"

"Praise be to Empress Wa, the Holy Mother!"

"Praise be to the Heavenly Venerate of Creation!"

At this moment, Xuan Qing racked his brains, using concise words to express every phrase he could think of that would praise Nuwa.

"Heavenly Venerate of Creation?"

A hint of a smile appeared in Nuwa's eyes. "This title is good, I shall accept it!"

Saints are also human. They possess the same emotions as mortals, but unlike mortals who are consumed by them, Saints can remain unburdened, unconfused in their actions, finding joy in things without attachment, and loving without being trapped by affection.

Xuan Qing felt as if he had been granted a great pardon.

Although Nuwa didn't say it explicitly, he was truly worried that she would hold him accountable for the incident with Fuxi.

After all, the twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty innate humans created by Nuwa personally, plus those from the gourd vine, were a significant number. Xuan Qing was merely one out of one hundred twenty-nine thousand six hundred. In terms of importance, he surely couldn't compare to his elder brother, with whom he had spent countless years and faced life and death together!

It was no wonder he was panicking!

It was only now that Xuan Qing had the leisure to carefully examine his current state.

His innate potential was originally only of average quality. After consuming the "Wind Thunder Immortal Apricot," it had transformed once. Later, under the influence of the "God of Thunder" and "Wind God" authorities, it transformed again. While there might still be some gap compared to the Three Pure Ones, it was considered top-tier among all the myriad races in the Great Desolation!

But just now, he felt his physical body, primordial spirit, and magic power undergo another all-encompassing transformation, as if returning to the embrace of the Great Mother of Creation.

"This..."

Xuan Qing exclaimed upon sensing the changes in his body, "Is this the Grand Unity Dharma Body?"

He could feel that his physical body was now no less inferior to the Xiao Mang Demon God he had encountered before. His primordial spirit no longer felt the oppressive aura of numerous Innate Spiritual Treasures, and his magic power surged like a tide. If his magic power was a small stream before, it was now a mighty river.

Yet, he had not condensed the Grand Unity Dao Fruit, nor had he cultivated any techniques like the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts or Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique that could lead to a Saintly physical body.

Nuwa's expression was calm. "Cultivation is, in itself, a leap in one's life level. Since I am the Heavenly Venerate of Creation, and your foundation is sufficient, forging a Grand Unity Dharma Body for you in advance is not a difficult matter!"

"What's more, you have also comprehended the Innate Way of Change and grasped the great dao's true meaning of 'only change is unchanging'!"

"If not for the fact that the great dao you cultivate is too complex and none of it is yet complete, it would not be impossible for me to awaken your spirit and bestow fate upon you, allowing you to advance to Grand Unity!"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Qing quickly bowed. "Many thanks to the Holy Mother for the grace of creation!"

At this moment, he couldn't help but recall Grand Pure One Laozi's Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir. That item could also allow one to achieve Grand Unity and achieve a leap in life level.

However, it resulted in the weakest form of Grand Unity, with no possibility of further advancement.

That method was like artifact refining; once a breakthrough was made, the future was completely fixed.

But Nuwa's method directly stimulated the various origins and authorities within his body, drawing upon the essence of creation, without the hidden dangers of the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir.

He was certain of this!

He knew his own body well. Aside from his Dao Fruit, he was no different from a Great Golden Immortal.

"Do you know what creation is?"

Seeing Xuan Qing's face full of confusion, Nuwa immediately let out a spiritual shout that struck at the heart.

"Please enlighten me, Holy Mother!"

Xuan Qing immediately understood that Nuwa wished to guide him. Naturally, he did not want to miss this opportunity, so he bowed to her with the utmost reverence.

"Now, creation..."

Threads of divine radiance of creation suddenly appeared on Nuwa's body. These divine rays contained the true meaning of creation, awakening spirits and bestowing fate, igniting the flame of life for the beings in Grand Simplicity Heaven. Strange demonic beasts began to develop sentience, and even plants transformed into spirits, greedily absorbing the ceaseless Qi of Creation from the void!

Xuan Qing watched, completely mesmerized.

This was not a sermon; rather, Nuwa was directly manifesting the great dao of creation before him.
