"Haofeng, the Holy Mother has agreed. We can build a city to commemorate Empress Nuwa."

"Great!"

Jiang Haofeng's eyes flashed with brilliance. Once Nuwa City was built, and the Nuwa Temple and Taiqing Temple were established, he wondered who in the entire Primordial Era would dare to cause trouble here!

"Gather the clansmen and begin building the city!"

"Yes!"

The Human Hidden Lineage clansmen immediately responded.

As they were walking, Suiren suddenly spoke up, "Brother Haofeng, how do we build this city?"

The Innate Humans were also stunned, their gazes falling back on Jiang Haofeng.

Although they hadn't heard of this city before, they understood its general meaning. It should be a large settlement covered by the Holy Mother's barrier. But how should this settlement be built? Should they simply surround Central Phoenix Mountain with fences? Jiang Haofeng slapped his forehead. "This city is much like a settlement, but an upgraded version. Cities have walls, thicker and taller than fences, and many houses within to accommodate the populace."

"Let's gather the clansmen first. I'll explain the specifics of construction once everyone is assembled."

Cities were originally invented by Dayu's father, Gun, in later generations. However, he couldn't worry about that now. He had to leverage Empress Nuwa's prestige to fully protect the entire Human Ancestral Land first.

He would owe Gun a karmic debt, and when he was born later, he would compensate him then.

"Alright!"

The Innate Humans nodded cluelessly and began to summon the Acquired Humans from the Hidden Lineage.

It was worth noting that the 300,000 clansmen left in the Hidden Lineage had all broken through to the True Immortal realm. Of course, if they couldn't break through, they wouldn't have survived until this point.

In five Yuan, which was 640,000 years, even though the Primordial Era was filled with innate spiritual energy and living beings had long lifespans, those below the True Immortal realm couldn't live that long.

These 300,000 people were elites selected from the major human tribes, most of them being direct descendants of the Innate Humans, with pure bloodlines and extremely high innate talents.

Furthermore, with the Innate Humans teaching profound techniques in the Hidden Lineage and Jiang Haofeng, the Martial Dao Ancestor, personally overseeing them, all 300,000 people had broken through to the True Immortal realm without exception, barely reaching the level of ordinary living beings in the Primordial Era.

Currently, in the entire Primordial Era, only humanity and some of the faster-breeding Demon Tribes had living beings below the Immortal level. Truly powerful races were basically born at the True Immortal level, though their reproduction speed was also very slow, with the birth of an offspring often taking tens of thousands of years.

While humanity was beginning to build the city, on the other side, Da Chao also used his Vertical Golden Light technique to arrive at Shouyang Mountain from his memory. He saw that the once vast mountain range had disappeared, leaving only a desolate grassland.

Da Chao was not surprised. He immediately bowed respectfully in the direction of the mountain range from his memory. "Human Da Chao seeks an audience with Teacher!"

On Shouyang Mountain, the Grand Pure Sage slowly opened his eyes. With a wave of his hand, Da Chao, who was below Shouyang Mountain, appeared before the Grand Pure Sage.

Da Chao was stunned. Upon clearly seeing the Grand Pure Sage above, he bowed respectfully again.

"Disciple greets Teacher!"

"Rise."

The Grand Pure Sage nodded expressionlessly.

"Thank you, Teacher!"

Da Chao stood up and was about to state his purpose when the Grand Pure Sage, seated at the head, waved his sleeve, and two items appeared before Da Chao.

"I already know your intention. With my Grand Pure Talisman, you can transform the Creation Sacred Spring into the Life and Death Springs. The Life Spring can revive the dead and regenerate flesh and bone, and it can reassemble the souls of the deceased, saving Immortals on the brink of death. Its power is equivalent to a seventh-grade Soul-Returning Pill."

"The Death Spring can shatter immortal bodies, dissipate mana, and corrupt immortal souls. Drinking from the spring will cause Immortals below Grand Luo Golden Immortal to perish within three hours, and will severely damage the vital energy and spirit of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, leaving them greatly weakened!"

"Using the Life Spring as Yang and the Death Spring as Yin, and setting up the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array, you can shield heavenly secrets. Below the Saint level, no one will be able to investigate!"

Da Chao's eyes suddenly lit up. He respectfully accepted the Grand Pure Talisman and array diagram from the void. "Disciple thanks Teacher!"

"Hmm!"

The Grand Pure Sage nodded slightly. With a wave of his Grand Unity Duster, Da Chao's figure was once again returned to his original location.

Da Chao bowed to Shouyang Mountain again, then transformed into a golden light and headed towards Central Phoenix Mountain.

At Central Phoenix Mountain, after hearing Da Chao's explanation, Jiang Haofeng's eyes lit up instantly. He knew it. The Creation Sacred Spring couldn't possibly have only one use – pregnancy and abortion.

Before, the Creation Sacred Spring transforming into the Mother-Child River and Miscarriage Spring was just one of its uses. Half of the Human Creation Merit was integrated into it. The main body was still the fusion of the Three Lights Divine Water and Nine Heavens Breathing Soil, refined by the Heaven and Earth Cauldron. How could it be useless?

According to Jiang Haofeng's estimation, the reason the Creation Sacred Spring transformed into the Mother-Child River and Miscarriage Spring was likely because the Huaxu lineage revered women and devoutly believed in Empress Nuwa. It was then that Empress Nuwa transformed the Creation Sacred Spring into the Mother-Child River and Miscarriage Spring, thus giving birth to the later Women's Country, the only matriarchal clan that survived to later generations.

However, now, with Jiang Haofeng's intervention, he had gathered all the Innate Humans, established the Human Ancestral Court, and confirmed the Human Clan Assembly. The Innate Humans did not fall apart and scatter across the Primordial Era.

The Creation Sacred Spring was not held by Huaxu and other human lineages that revered women. It remained a supreme treasure for all of humanity.

Now, with the Grand Pure Talisman, the Creation Sacred Spring has been transformed into the Life and Death Springs. One can save lives, and the other can kill. Both springs are supreme treasures, which is much better than any Mother-Child River or Miscarriage Spring.

As the Innate Humans approached the Creation Sacred Spring, Da Chao took out a yellow talisman and pressed it onto the Creation Sacred Spring.

In an instant, vast golden light erupted, and a profound Dao charm appeared. The Grand Pure Talisman transformed into a golden Taiji Diagram and merged into the Creation Sacred Spring. In an instant, endless creation Dao charm surged forth, hundreds of times more potent than what Jiang Haofeng had previously stimulated. The entire Central Phoenix Mountain was permeated with creation Dao charm.

A giant Taiji Diagram rotated in the void, drawing in the dense creation Dao charm. As the Taiji Diagram continued to rotate, the creation Dao charm was slowly divided into two distinct energies: one brimming with life, and the other filled with death.

As time passed, more and more creation Dao charm was unraveled, with vitality and death energy gathering into the two "eyes" of the Taiji Diagram. When the creation Dao charm on the entire Central Phoenix Mountain completely dissipated, two spring eyes appeared before everyone's eyes.

At the same time, as the creation Dao charm on Central Phoenix Mountain completely vanished, it instantly attracted the attention of the great divine powers of the Primordial Era, who cast their gazes down. However, in the next moment, they all retracted their gazes as if they had been electrocuted.

The Yin-Yang Dao charm of the Grand Pure Sage!

The creation Dao charm of Sage Nuwa had just dissipated, and now there was Grand Pure Sage's Dao charm within it.

With two Saints backing them, this humanity was truly blessed by heaven.

With a Saint's protection, they are not to be provoked at all!

The great Divine Powers of the Primordial Era thought to themselves.

Unaware of the thoughts of the Primordial Era's great Divine Powers, the Human race members didn't have the time to pay attention to them.

The moment the two spring eyes appeared, Da Chao once again raised his hand and offered up the diagram of the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array!

A massive Taiji Diagram enveloped the entirety of Central Phoenix Mountain. The spring eyes of the Life and Death Springs appeared on the fish eyes of the Taiji Diagram, becoming the array eyes of the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array.

The spring eyes took root, and the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array was successfully set up. A layer of hazy gray mist shrouded Central Phoenix Mountain. In the next moment, Central Phoenix Mountain vanished abruptly. Not only did the mountain range disappear, but even its heavenly secrets were gone.

From this night onward, within Central Phoenix Mountain, no one except a Saint could deduce its location.

"It's done!"

"Thank you, Human Sage Master!"

Looking at the great array that enveloped Central Phoenix Mountain, Jiang Haofeng's face showed extreme joy. He immediately bowed respectfully towards the direction of Shouyang Mountain.

"Thank you, Human Sage Master!"

"Disciple thanks Teacher!"

The remaining innate humans of the Hidden and Revealed lineages also bowed towards Shouyang Mountain.

Within Shouyang Mountain, the Grand Pure Sage nodded slightly and said with satisfaction, "Good!"

After completing their bows, Jiang Haofeng and the innate humans excitedly went to observe the Life and Death Springs. The locations of the two spring eyes were precisely on the fish eyes of the Taiji Diagram that covered Central Phoenix Mountain.

Drawing a line across Central Phoenix Mountain from east to west, the positions of the two fish eyes were located at the one-third points. The two spring eyes were each thirty-three thousand li apart, and also thirty-three thousand li away from the edge of the Human Ancestral Land.

In other words, they were located sixteen thousand five hundred li east and west of the Human Ancestral Pavilion. The Life Spring was on the east, in the direction of the Holy Mother's temple, and the Death Spring was on the west, at the location of the Sage Master's temple.

Sixteen thousand five hundred li was nothing for the Grand Unity Golden Immortals. At full speed, it wouldn't even take a single step. With a flash, the forty-nine innate humans appeared beside the Life Spring.

That's right, after five Yuan, the first fifty innate humans created had all achieved Grand Unity Golden Immortal. Of course, Jiang Haofeng could only confirm forty-nine currently. Xuandu was at Shouyang Mountain, so his status was unknown.

However, since Dating and Zunlu had both achieved Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and Xuandu had the teachings of a Saint, his progress would certainly not be slow.

Currently, among the forty-nine innate humans in the Human Ancestral Court, the weakest were Dating and Zunlu. They had cultivated the Nine Tribulations Martial Scripture to the fifth level, and their physical strength was equivalent to that of an early-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Next was Jiang Haofeng, whose physical strength was equivalent to a mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal. Following him were the forty-three clan members who had been promoted to Grand Unity Golden Immortal using Merit. Among them, the Revealed lineage had twenty-two members, and the Hidden lineage had twenty-one.

The twenty-two members of the Revealed lineage cultivated the Grand Pure Immortal Method. After the Saint's teachings, the weakest among them had reached the late-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation. Four of them had already broken through to the peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

As for the twenty-one members of the Hidden lineage, three of them cultivated the Grand Pure Immortal Method, and two were late-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortals. The Human Sage Master Temple Steward, Yunyang, was a peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

The remaining eighteen people all cultivated the Nine Tribulations Martial Scripture. Fifteen of them were mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortals, and three were late-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

It couldn't be helped, as cultivating the Martial Dao, without the augmentation of a Saint's teachings, was significantly slower than cultivating the Grand Pure Immortal Method. However, they weren't at a disadvantage. Although they primarily cultivated the Nine Tribulations Martial Scripture, their cultivation realm in the Grand Pure Immortal Method remained. Their mana realms were generally at mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal and above. When they resu med cultivating the Grand Pure Immortal Method in the future, their starting point would be much higher.

As for Suiren and the others, their cultivation remained at the early-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal level. However, their comprehension of laws had caught up. Although their cultivation was boosted by Merit, the three of them now had a comprehension of laws that was not inferior to Grand Luo Golden Immortals who had cultivated them properly.

In the span of five Yuan, it seemed the Human race had made little progress, with an average increase of one minor realm. However, this was a minor realm within the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

In just five Yuan, this was considered extremely rapid progress in the Primordial Era.

The deeper one's cultivation, the more difficult it became to cultivate; this was an unchanging truth.

Once one reached the Immortal Realm, the gap between each stage was terrifying, growing larger as one progressed.

The True Immortal Realm was insignificant in the Primordial Era, not even worth mentioning. Any genuine living being in the Primordial Era was basically at the True Immortal realm.

However, the number of Mystic Immortals sharply decreased. Even within the Wu and Yao tribes, Mystic Immortals could serve as slightly stronger minions and could participate in major battles. Out of a hundred True Immortals, perhaps not even one would reach the Mystic Immortal realm, and it required a long time to cultivate.

As for Golden Immortals, they were even rarer. At this stage, they had completely escaped the shackles of lifespan. They lived as long as heaven and earth, as long as the sun and moon, with infinite lifespans. As long as they weren't afflicted by calamities, they could live until the next Calamity.

However, those below the Golden Immortal stage, Mystic Immortals and True Immortals, could not. Although True Immortals had transcended their mortal bodies and achieved immortality, their strength was insufficient to withstand the erosion of countless years.

Tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, millions of years, tens of millions of years – these were easily lived through.
