Heavenly Dao Curse
Just as Qing Xuanzi was deep in thought, news came from the Purple Cloud Palace.
It is said that something happened to Fuxi.
Qing Xuanzi was stunned: What the hell is wrong with Fuxi? Which Fuxi is it?
Upon arriving at the Purple Cloud Palace, Qing Xuanzi learned that it was indeed Fuxi who had encountered trouble, not the infant.
"Master, can you tell what's going on?"
Qing Xuanzi couldn't understand why Fuxi had suddenly lost all his vitality.
Hongjun shook his head and said with a solemn expression, "I don't know the specifics, but I suspect it's the power of a curse."
"A curse? Isn't that the law of cause and effect?" Qing Xuanzi's eyes lit up, certain that the Destiny Demon God had already laid out a plan.
Karma and the Demon God are Twin Demon Gods. Unlike Luo Hou and Folo, they complement each other.
Curses are merely a kind of supernatural power within the realm of cause and effect, a rather perverse kind of supernatural power.
It's actually similar to what later generations called meme attacks.
It strikes as soon as the opportunity arises, making it virtually impossible to defend against, and what's most frustrating is that it's almost impossible to find a solution.
"So, the birth of this infant was the cause of the Fuxi Curse."
If Fuxi had followed the script of fate, the outcome would have been predictable: his true spirit would have surely dissipated.
He was then absorbed by the infant, and Fuxi disappeared into the Primordial World. The infant then took over everything from Fuxi.
What a vicious method.
This is the conclusion reached by Qing Xuanzi. Although it is chilling, it is almost 100% correct.
"Qing Xuanzi, what should we do? Please save my brother." Nüwa's face was pale, and her eyes were full of pleading.
His voice trembled slightly as he spoke.
Qing Xuanzi glanced at Hongjun, Hongjun shook his head slightly.
Qing Xuanzi sighed inwardly, thinking that Fuxi's fate was probably sealed.
"First, take out Fuxi's true spirit and let it be nurtured in my place. Otherwise, once the true spirit dissipates, things will become even more difficult."
Qing Xuanzi and Hongjun worked together to cast a spell and carefully extracted Fuxi's true spirit.
As soon as he took out the True Spirit, Qing Xuanzi didn't waste any time and immediately placed it into the lake water composed of the Three Lights Divine Water to nurture it.
After a moment of contemplation, Qing Xuanzi said, "Senior Sister, I'm not very confident. I'm only about 30% or 40% sure, and that's only with Master's help."
Nüwa's face turned even paler. She knew that when the true spirit malfunctioned, there was usually no way to fix it.
Unless you happen to have the right solution, don't even think about it.
Qing Xuanzi's claim of having a 30-40% chance of success already represents his utmost effort.
Nüwa could only nod gently and say, "Junior brother, please cast the spell."
"Master, I deduce that the source of this curse is the true spirit within this human infant."
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to remain undetected indefinitely. Master should be aware that once a creature is afflicted by a curse...
The cause and effect are extremely chaotic, something that Master or Senior Sister must be able to see, so I deduce that...
In truth, the curse's subject is not Fuxi, but rather him; Fuxi is merely the one who bears the brunt of the curse's effects.
Hongjun nodded. Qing Xuanzi's words made perfect sense. If even saints like them couldn't see through a curse on a living being, there was only one possibility: it was done by a cultivator at the Great Dao level.
It is obvious that neither cause and effect nor destiny possess this level of cultivation. Apart from the Great Dao, no living being in the entire Chaos has reached this level.
"I understand what you mean. You're actually saying that as long as the curse on this baby is lifted, Fuxi's problem will naturally be solved, is that what you mean?"
Nüwa listened very attentively, and instantly understood the meaning behind Qing Xuanzi's words.
"Yes, I possess a great array formation called the Great Dao Rebirth Array, which I obtained by chance."
This formation can sever all cause and effect, restoring everything to its original state, but I am alone.
We cannot set it up yet; we must rely on Master's Creation Jade Disc and the help of our fellow disciples.
The Great Dao Rebirth Array was something Qing Xuanzi figured out before at the Dao Burial Ground, although he hadn't successfully set it up yet.
However, he deduced that it should be possible to arrange it using the Creation Jade Disc.
"I ask for your help, my three senior brothers," Nüwa said, turning to the Three Pure Ones.
"Junior Sister Nuwa, that's for sure. You don't need to tell us, we will definitely help you. Qing Xuanzi, just tell us what to do."
This time, Tongtian answered first, and Laozi and Yuanshi nodded in agreement.
"The formation works like this..." Qing Xuanzi explained the principles of the formation in detail. "Finally, this formation has the ability to strip away life force and transform it into all things. Fellow senior brothers, please release your spiritual treasures for protection to avoid any accidents."
Soon, under Qing Xuanzi's guidance, a Rebirth Array slowly rose up. When the Creation Jade Butterfly, which served as the array's eye, emitted a familiar fluctuation.
Qing Xuanzi knew he had succeeded. Although it was much weaker than the great formation he had seen before, it was still a great formation.
Qing Xuanzi silently apologized and placed the baby into the formation.
Strangely, the baby did not seem to feel uncomfortable; instead, he stared wide-eyed at everything around him.
This scene shocked all the sages. How strange! Why did this happen?
"Fellow disciples, Master, increase your mana output and use ninety percent of your mana!" Qing Xuanzi, who was most familiar with this formation, said.
He seemed to faintly see a trace of causal power emanating from the baby.
He thought to himself: This has a chance.
At the same time, they realized that this baby was probably no ordinary person, but rather a powerful individual.
Therefore, he decided to increase his magical power and extract the power of cause and effect.
A full Shi Chen later, a faint voice transmission came from the baby's body. "Thank you, fellow Daoists, for saving Wang Shu."
Wang Shu? Qing Xuanzi smiled. Then everything made sense. The mysteriously disappeared Wang Shu was actually suppressed by the Destiny Demon God.
Moreover, it's estimated that the Moon Worship Sect was probably set up to maintain this curse power.
Soon, after the great formation was withdrawn, the baby transformed into the image of a dignified woman.
"Wang Shu thanks you all again. I never thought I would be free." Although Wang Shu was still very weak, he looked very happy.
"Alas, Wang Shu, although you have recovered some of your magical power, you are now a human. What are your plans?"
"Fellow Daoist, you look unfamiliar. May I ask your Daoist name?"
"This is Qing Xuanzi, the old Daoist's disciple," Hongjun answered.
"So you are a disciple of Daoist Hongjun, Fellow Daoist Qing Xuanzi. Since Wang Shu is a human, he should do his best for the human race."
Qing Xuanzi was very satisfied with Wang Shu's answer, and said, "Before, the starry sky was without a master, and foreign enemies hid here. I had no choice but to refine all the named stars. Now that you have returned, I will return them."
After Qing Xuanzi finished speaking, he conjured a token and handed it to Wang Shu.
Then he said to Nüwa, "Nüwa Sister Nuwa, it seems that Fuxi can no longer be a Demon Clan. Although the curse has been lifted, under the influence of the power of cause and effect, his only destiny can be the human race."
Nüwa sighed, then cheered up and said, "It's alright, my brother will understand once he regains his memories."
