Rewriting the Investiture of the Gods in the Primordial Era

Target achieved!

Jiang Haofeng felt overjoyed, but maintained a troubled expression.

Ancestor Minghe remained silent, watching Jiang Haofeng intently, the atmosphere growing increasingly tense.

After a long moment, Jiang Haofeng sighed, "Fine, fine, fellow Daoist Minghe. Since you've put it that way, I can't refuse further. However, this truly concerns the survival of humanity. I hope you won't make a fuss after you've seen it."

Ancestor Minghe was instantly delighted. If Haofeng had continued to refuse, and he had to force his way in, it would have been troublesome.

"Fellow Daoist Haofeng, rest assured. I swear by the Heavenly Dao that I will never speak of what I see!"

Seeing Jiang Haofeng's generosity, allowing him to inspect the matter concerning the fate of humanity, Ancestor Minghe was about to make a Heavenly Dao oath.

"Fellow Daoist Minghe, you flatter me. There's no need. I trust you."

Jiang Haofeng waved his hand, stopping Ancestor Minghe from making the oath.

Ancestor Minghe had barely participated in the Witch-Demon War, nor did he have any interest in it, or the Primordial Era's power struggles. From beginning to end, Ancestor Minghe's sole focus was on proving the Dao and becoming a Sage.

Even if he learned that humanity possessed Martial Dao, similar to the Witch Tribe's divine abilities, there was no reason for him to reveal it. Since that was the case, it was better to save face for Ancestor Minghe and take this opportunity to foster a good relationship, potentially securing human reinforcements, which would bring many benefits.

"Good!"

"Fellow Daoist Haofeng trusts me, and I will never fail you!"

"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I will never make things difficult for you!"

A sense of boldness surged within Ancestor Minghe, and he immediately patted his chest.

"Alright, fellow Daoist Minghe, please come in!"

As he spoke, ripples appeared around them, and a majestic great city materialized before Ancestor Minghe's eyes.

Gazing at the vast city before him, a flicker of surprise crossed Ancestor Minghe's eyes. He had seen larger tribes and more opulent Dragon Palaces.

But this structure before him possessed a greater magnificence and solemnity than the Witch Tribe's settlements, and more solemnity and prosperity than the Dragon Palaces.

Before seeing this city, the Witch Tribe's settlements and the Dragon Tribe's Dragon Palaces were considered the finest architecture in the Primordial Era. But now, compared to this city, they seemed less appealing.

The Witch Tribe's settlements were wild and grand, but scattered and disorganized, far inferior to the neat houses and imposing aura of the city before him.

The Dragon Tribe's Dragon Palaces were magnificent and imposing, appearing to be the most opulent places in the world, but they were excessively ornate. Beneath the boundless divine light, they lacked much solemnity, giving a sense of being flashy but unsubstantial.

If Ancestor Minghe had to choose, he would undoubtedly opt for a city like this.

He could build a city in the Blood Sea in the future, Ancestor Minghe mused inwardly.

"Nuwa City!"

Upon seeing the three innate Dao characters on the city walls, Ancestor Minghe's gaze flickered. Bearing Nuwa's name, perhaps only humanity in the entire Primordial Era would dare to do such a thing. With a Saint as their backer, few in the Primordial Era would dare to trouble humanity.

Accompanied by Jiang Haofeng, they entered the Human Ancestral Court. With Ancestor Minghe's strength, and without the concealment of the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array, humanity held no secrets before him.

"Witch Tribe's methods?"

"Strange, humanity has no Witch Tribe bloodline?"

Ancestor Minghe instantly understood the reason for Haofeng's hesitation and immediately spoke, "Fellow Daoist Haofeng, rest assured, I will not reveal a single word about Martial Dao!"

Jiang Haofeng smiled, "I trust your character, fellow Daoist Minghe!"

Ancestor Minghe nodded with satisfaction. This feeling of being trusted was truly wonderful.

Rest assured, I, Ancestor Minghe, have never broken a promise since my birth. Even if a Saint were to interrogate me, I wouldn't divulge a single word!

He paused, then earnestly advised, "Fellow Daoist Haofeng, the Witch Tribe has the Twelve Ancestral Witches, each as tough as iron, and they are very formidable. Furthermore, they have sheer numbers; twelve peak Quasi-Saints are incredibly difficult to deal with. Even I cannot afford to provoke them. Brother Haofeng should make plans accordingly."

"The karma with the Witch Tribe is truly difficult to resolve. Humanity has the Great Dao passed down by the Grand Pure Sage. If it really comes to it, abandoning this Martial Dao is not impossible!"

Jiang Haofeng secretly shook his head. If humanity truly had no Martial Dao, he wouldn't be addressing him as "Fellow Daoist Haofeng" now, but as "Youngster Haofeng."

The purpose of Martial Dao's existence was not merely to give humanity its own cultivation method, but to prevent the Grand Pure Sage from monopolizing all the Merit from enlightenment.

If the Grand Pure Sage alone claimed all the Merit, with the rapid development of humanity under the Humanity Teaching and Sage Nuwa's consistent absence, all of humanity's fortune would flow towards the Grand Pure Sage.

In that scenario, with the fortune granted, but the Grand Pure Sage uninvolved, humanity's ultimate fate would be the Son of Heaven replacing the Human King, and humanity lacking any great figures.

However, for Ancestor Minghe to say this indicated a positive impression of humanity, and humanity would gain a friend in the Primordial Era in the future.

Jiang Haofeng smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Minghe, rest assured, I have it handled."

Seeing this, Ancestor Minghe didn't say much more. They were all Great Divine Powers, each with their own schemes, and further words were pointless. If anyone advised him to give up on proving the Dao, he would never listen and would even send them a blast of Abi Sword Qi!

As he spoke, Ancestor Minghe's gaze fell upon the Life and Death Springs. "Not bad, a good treasure. Fellow Daoist Haofeng has good karmic affinity."

Jiang Haofeng cupped his hands towards the sky and said, "We are indebted to Empress Nuwa for her great kindness, which has added significant foundation for our humanity. When the spring water condenses in the future, I will give some to fellow Daoist Minghe."

Ancestor Minghe nodded casually, "Alright. I also have some Lotus Seeds in my Blood Sea. They aren't valuable items. I'll give you a few plants to play with later."

"I couldn't ask for more!"

After a thorough inspection, almost all of humanity's foundation was exposed to Ancestor Minghe's eyes. Aside from the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book in Jiang Haofeng's mind, the Heavenly Secret Nine Lot, and the Enlightenment Mat, nothing else escaped Ancestor Minghe's sight.

There was no other way; it was the law of the jungle. With insufficient strength, all one could do was sigh.

He symbolically cupped his hands before the Holy Mother Temple, which enshrined Empress Nuwa, and the Holy Master Temple, which enshrined the Grand Pure Sage. Ancestor Minghe then turned to Jiang Haofeng and said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist Haofeng, thank you for today. If you ever need me in the future, just call my name, and I will arrive within moments anywhere in the Primordial Era!"

Jiang Haofeng did not answer directly, but instead made a solemn promise, "Fellow Daoist Minghe, our humanity is weak. If you ever need anything, humanity will not refuse!"

"Haofeng is my confidant!"

After a brief exchange, Ancestor Minghe left Nuwa City.

In the void, Ancestor Minghe's expression returned to calm. As expected, he hadn't found anything special. The key to achieving the Dao was to create a race that would complete the world and to enlighten all beings.

Of course, there was also the Hongmeng Purple Qi. In an instant, the figures of Jieyin and Zhunti appeared in Ancestor Minghe's mind, and a killing intent quietly arose.

The killing intent flashed and disappeared. Minghe restrained his killing intent and looked down at Nuwa City.

Humanity's Haofeng.

Not bad, it's worth interacting with him. As for whether the relationship could deepen, that would depend on future developments.

He couldn't deal with both Jieyin and Zhunti alone. No, he needed to find another helper.

Great Divine Powers in the Primordial Era flashed through Ancestor Minghe's mind. After a moment, a figure solidified. Ancestor Minghe's eyes lit up. It would be him – Demon Master Kunpeng!

Back then, Kunpeng was destined to be one of the Six Saints, but he was implicated by Hongyun and gave up his Sage position to Jieyin and Zhunti.

If Kunpeng made a move, it would be justifiable. He would be assisting Kunpeng, helping him reclaim the Hongmeng Purple Qi, which would also be justifiable. When Jieyin and Zhunti were killed, they could each take a strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi. Wouldn't that be wonderful!

Ancestor Minghe's eyes immediately brightened. His figure flickered, and he headed towards the Heavenly Court. On the edge of the Heavenly Court, Ancestor Minghe sent out a beam of light, waiting for Kunpeng to appear.

With Eastern Emperor Taiyi in the Heavenly Court, its power was already formidable. Coupled with the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell, it was even more powerful. Minghe did not want to clash with Eastern Emperor Taiyi when he was not in the Blood Sea.

A moment later, a mysterious light flashed in the void, and a burly man in blue robes appeared before Ancestor Minghe.

Like Primeval Lord of Heaven, Kunpeng also had a middle-aged appearance.

In the Primordial Era, the lifespan of innate divine spirits was endless, so there was no aging. The appearance they presented to the world was determined by their state of mind.

However, generally speaking, those who appeared as youths were often carefree and elegant, with a sharp spirit. There were few Great Divine Powers in the Primordial Era who appeared as youths, only a handful.

Those who appeared as middle-aged individuals were steady and calculative. Such people were usually frequently active on the stage of the Primordial Era.

As for those who appeared as elders, most of them were dedicated to pursuing the Great Dao, lived in seclusion in deep mountains, and rarely concerned themselves with the affairs of the Primordial Era. Even if they participated, it was usually for Merit and to prove the Dao.

Of course, this was just a general observation and not absolute, but it was effective in most cases.

Kunpeng looked at Ancestor Minghe expressionlessly and said, "Minghe, why are you looking for me?"

"For the Hongmeng Purple Qi!"

As soon as he spoke, Kunpeng's expression changed drastically, and he stared intently at Ancestor Minghe. "What?"

"Hongmeng Purple Qi!"

Under Kunpeng's gaze, Ancestor Minghe said word by word.

Kunpeng's expression shifted slightly. After a long silence, he finally spoke, "Jieyin and Zhunti?"

"That's right, it's them!" Ancestor Minghe said without any hesitation, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.

"Kunpeng, the position of the Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao should have been yours. Those two shameless fellows from the West took it, making you inferior from then on. Are you truly reconciled?"

Kunpeng, you are no match for the two from the West alone. I will help you. The two of us can settle the karma from the Purple Heaven Palace that day. Once we obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi, you can give me a strand, and the two of you can achieve sainthood. Wouldn't that be wonderful!

"Minghe, Jieyin and Zhunti are not easy to deal with. If we kill them but fail, and they achieve sainthood in the future, then both you and I will surely perish."

"Kunpeng, don't say such useless things. When you killed Hongyun that day, weren't you afraid that Hongyun would seek revenge after becoming a Sage?" Ancestor Minghe sneered.

"Hongyun owed you karma, and Jieyin and Zhunti also owe you karma. If you could kill Hongyun, why can't you kill them?"

Being exposed by Ancestor Minghe, Kunpeng showed no embarrassment on his face and said, "Hongyun was killed by you in the end. Don't slander me."

Ancestor Minghe sneered and did not argue with Kunpeng over these meaningless matters. "Are you going or not?"

"I don't have many magic treasures to protect myself, and those two from the West have quite a few treasures. I'm afraid I won't be able to kill them."

"You just need to entangle Jieyin. Once I kill Zhunti, the two of us will join forces to kill Jieyin!" Ancestor Minghe's eyes revealed a hint of arrogance.
