Taiqing pointed at Ling Wudao with a trembling hand.
"You little brat, you... don't spout nonsense."
"I'm spouting nonsense? Hahaha!"
"If I were spouting nonsense, then why does your face look so ugly? Why are your hands trembling? Shouldn't you be calm?"
"You cultivate the Dao of Non-Action, so you should have remained unruffled by what I just said. Yet looking at you now, there is not the slightest trace of calmness. Could it be that I hit the mark and threw your Dao Heart into disarray?"
At this moment, Ling Wudao intended to shatter Taiqing's Dao Heart. Only then could he thoroughly abolish the Human Religion later. If Taiqing remained at his peak, abolishing the Human Religion would not be easy.
Sure enough, upon hearing Ling Wudao's words, Taiqing's state of mind instantly collapsed. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed.
Right now, he only wanted to erase Ling Wudao. Only then could he vent the fury in his heart.
With that thought, Taiqing immediately attacked with all his strength. With a palm strike, the void suddenly darkened, and a giant hand stretched out from the void before slamming down toward Ling Wudao.
Seeing this, Ling Wudao was not flustered. With Nüwa and Tongtian beside him, Taiqing had no way to harm him.
"Taiqing, you old dog! I exposed your scheme, so now you want to silence me, is that it?!"
"Hmph!"
"You insulted a Saint. Your crime warrants death. Die!"
Just as the giant hand was about to strike Ling Wudao, a massive blade radiance swept across the void and instantly cut Taiqing's giant hand into nothingness.
"Taiqing, you dare attack my man before me? You truly do not take me seriously!"
"Nüwa, this man insulted a Saint, and his crime warrants death. You had better step aside now, or do not blame me for suppressing you along with him."
Hearing Taiqing's words, Nüwa could not help but sneer.
"Suppress me? Does Taiqing have that ability? Even if Yuanshi joined you, you might not be able to suppress me."
As her words fell, Nüwa's aura surged once more. In an instant, her realm entered the Saint Fourth Heaven.
Seeing that Nüwa's realm was even higher than his own, Taiqing revealed an expression of utter disbelief.
"How is this possible? Your cultivation is actually higher than mine."
"There is nothing impossible about it. The merit and fortune I gained from creating the human race far exceed yours. You merely borrowed the human race's fortune to become a Saint. How could you compare with me?"
As she spoke, Nüwa reached out and grabbed. The Seven Mouths Heavenly Light Divine Knife instantly merged into a single golden long blade, which slowly fell into her hands.
"You intercepted me, and now you have attacked the human race. It is time to settle this debt."
Nüwa gripped the golden blade with both hands and swung it fiercely. A golden giant blade a million zhang long appeared in the void.
Boom!
The enormous golden blade descended from the void, its terrifying edge slicing through space and leaving crack after crack in the void. Its razor-sharp blade seemed ready to cleave the Great Desolation in two.
Seeing this, Taiqing immediately summoned the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda.
The pagoda flew out from behind Taiqing and enveloped him within.
Bang!
The golden blade collided with the pagoda's body. An immense force surged into the tower, and Taiqing's eyes widened as though a giant hammer had struck him.
Pfft!
His throat turned sweet, and he sprayed out a mouthful of blood.
Witnessing this scene, Yuanshi immediately summoned the All Heavens Celebration Cloud to assist Taiqing in resisting Nüwa's attack.
"Elder Brother, are you all right?"
"I'm fine. I did not expect Nüwa's strength to be so formidable. We underestimated her."
Seeing Taiqing suppressed, Ling Wudao felt that the time was about right.
Thus, he shouted, "Fellow humans! We helped Taiqing become a Saint, yet he turned around and helped the demon race deal with us. Do we still need such a leader of the Human Religion?"
The humans below immediately shouted in response, "No! No!"
Deep voices rose from the earth, and those unified cries echoed between heaven and earth, causing the world to gradually darken.
At that moment, Ling Wudao felt an inexplicable force within his body. He also saw the human race's fortune continuously gathering toward him.
Just as I guessed, as long as the human race stands united, the Power of Human Dao will emerge. The force inside me must be the Power of Human Dao.
But this power should belong to Nüwa. After all, she created the human race. By all reason, she should be the spokesperson for Human Dao. Could it be that my transmigration caused a butterfly effect?
Or perhaps because Nüwa became a Heavenly Dao Saint, she could not become the spokesperson for Human Dao, so Human Dao chose me instead.
If that is truly the case, then this will be interesting.
However, to abolish the Human Religion, I must have the Kongtong Seal. I should first try using this power to draw out the Kongtong Seal. As long as I have it, abolishing the Human Religion will be simple.
With that thought, Ling Wudao began trying to use the Power of Human Dao within his body.
"Power of Human Dao, help me summon the Kongtong Seal!"
As soon as he spoke, nine-colored divine light burst forth around Ling Wudao. In the next instant, an indescribable force surged around him like a tide.
The Saints, as well as Di Jun, Tai Yi, and the others, all revealed looks of disbelief at the sight.
Tongtian secretly thought, This power actually carries the will of all living beings. Though it is still weak, if it grows powerful, even Heavenly Dao may not be able to suppress it.
That kid just said the Power of Human Dao. Could it be that the Great Desolation possesses more than just Heavenly Dao?
At this moment, Tongtian was not the only one with such doubts. Nüwa, Taiqing, Yuanshi, and the Two Sages of the West were all thinking the same thing.
Just as the Saints pondered the Power of Human Dao, Shouyang Mountain suddenly began to shake.
Immediately afterward, a golden light shot into the sky. Then two enormous golden dragons of fortune flew out from Shouyang Mountain and began circling the pillar of light.
Within the golden light, a great seal appeared. The images of the Five Great Emperors were clearly visible upon it, while nine golden dragon souls coiled around it. Beneath the seal, the two words "Kongtong" were engraved.
The moment the seal appeared, Nüwa and Taiqing both sensed its importance.
Taiqing therefore said to Jie Yin and Zhun Ti, "Junior Brothers, please help me obtain this seal. Once it is done, I am willing to give you twenty Nine Revolutions Golden Pills."
Hearing Taiqing's words, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti understood how important this seal was to him. Although they also wanted the seal, they knew that if they took it for themselves, they would certainly face a joint assault from Taiqing and Nüwa.
Rather than be targeted by two Saints, it was better to obtain some practical benefits in exchange for it.
"Senior Brother Taiqing, since you have said so, my junior brother and I will help you this once."
