Gonggong suffered terrible misfortune, but he deserved it.
Who told him to do something so foolish as ram into Mount Buzhou?
Meanwhile, the skies over the Primordial World gradually cleared.
Because Sage Nüwa had appeared.
And she was the Primordial World's very first Sage.
The entire Demon Clan rejoiced, and the humans, those of the Primordial Human Race, grew excited as well.
After all, Sage Nüwa had created them. Before, she had only been a Quasi-Sage, and her words had not carried all that much weight in the Primordial World.
At the very least, the Witch Clan alone had more than twenty such Quasi-Sages.
But now she had become a Sage, the first Sage between heaven and earth.
Naturally, countless people revered her.
At least in the eyes of the Primordial World's living beings, after becoming a Sage, Nüwa might be able to stand on equal footing with Hongjun.
Of course, this was merely their speculation. After all, no one had ever seen a Sage personally take action.
Beyond that, another shock swept through the entire Primordial World.
The sky had been mended, and the pillars Nüwa had obtained in an exchange with the ancient giant turtle, an innate deity of the East Sea, held heaven and earth apart once more.
The Primordial World had been saved.
Nüwa!
A Sage was born!
Meanwhile, on the Douluo Continent.
The Federation was divided into several major legions.
And within the Southern Legion, in the sphere of influence controlled by certain old noble families.
The Yue Family, of the Holy Angel lineage, stood at their head.
At that moment, Angel Douluo Yue Zhengen was likewise watching the images on the sky screen.
When he saw the crisis erupt in the Primordial World, and its conclusion with Nüwa mending the sky and becoming a Sage.
Towering waves surged through his heart.
Now, whether it was the Federation's upper echelons, the powerhouses of Shrek Academy, or the leaders of the Spirit Pagoda, they had all seen Nüwa mend the sky and become a Sage through the Merit she received.
None of them had imagined that there was actually a way to become a god without relying on increasing one's strength.
A reward from heaven and earth?
Then Merit was bestowed, allowing one to become a god.
Then why had this way of becoming a god never appeared on their Douluo Continent?
Although the Douluo World and the Primordial World were not the same world.
They were largely alike, and a world surely had its own will.
After all, all living beings lived within a fixed framework.
But why did the Douluo World have no Merit?
Douluo Consciousness: Huo Yuhao, so?
Douluo Consciousness: Save me! Tang San's father is about to possess me!
The powerhouses of the Douluo Continent did not know that their world's will was being suppressed by the Divine Realm, while Tang San was also plotting to have it possessed.
They wanted the Douluo Consciousness to bestow Merit and help Soul Masters become gods.
But Douluo could not do it.
Yet the powerhouses of the Douluo Continent knew nothing of this situation.
As Yue Zhengen, who possessed the Holy Angel Martial Soul, watched these images, he grew somewhat thoughtful.
Their Holy Angel Martial Soul had likewise been passed down for a long time.
Although, publicly, they would never say that it had descended from the Qian Family's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul from twenty thousand years ago.
The rule of the Douluo Continent was that bloodlines shared a common origin.
Martial Souls were an inheritance.
The same Martial Soul meant the same racial bloodline.
At the very least, their ancestors would have belonged to the same branch.
No matter what, the Holy Angel certainly had some connection to the Six-Winged Angel.
Not to mention Angel Douluo Ye Guyi, who had joined the Spirit Pagoda ten thousand years ago.
And so their Martial Souls all possessed a special trait.
They could increase their Soul Power by killing Evil Soul Masters.
Was killing Evil Soul Masters not also working on behalf of heaven and earth, ridding it of pests?
Was that not the same principle as the scenes in the Primordial World?
Nüwa had become a Sage through the great Merit she gained by saving all living beings beneath heaven.
Then the Yue Family's Holy Angel Martial Soul could likewise increase its Soul Power through the Merit gained by slaying the world's evil beings and Evil Soul Masters.
In other words, their Yue Family also had a chance to attain godhood.
At that thought, Yue Zhengen's breathing had already begun to quicken.
Who could withstand the temptation of becoming a god?
But here was the problem: where could he find enough Merit to become a god?
Everyone viewed Merit differently.
This proved that you wanted to kill more Evil Soul Masters.
But Tang San frowned slightly when he saw these images.
What he saw was the devastation Gonggong had caused by smashing Mount Buzhou.
Without that prerequisite, how could Nüwa have saved the world?
And so he thought of his own ten-thousand-year plan.
Because his son had absorbed the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, he had arranged in advance for his father and mother to go to the lower realm, the Douluo Continent.
His mother would replace Nature's Core, and his father would possess the Douluo Plane's consciousness and become the Plane Master.
He had Da Ming, Er Ming, and Yeque secretly protect his son.
All of it was to safeguard his son.
After all, he did not want to return to the Douluo Continent ten thousand years later to find that his son had failed to become a god and turned into a handful of yellow earth.
But without the Douluo God Realm, the Douluo Continent could not produce gods.
So he had come up with a way to fish.
That was to lure in the Abyss Plane.
An evil plane that wandered the universe, possessing vast amounts of energy.
If Douluo could devour the Abyss Plane instead, it would allow the Douluo Continent to evolve, though it would not reach the standard of a Divine Realm.
But at least it could break through the hundred-level limit and extend lifespans.
Then his son would be able to live longer, hold on until he returned, and inherit the divine position he passed down to him.
So he fished, luring the Abyss Plane over and allowing it to invade the Douluo Continent.
At the critical moment, his father would act, allowing the Douluo Plane to devour the Abyss instead.
But now, after seeing the scene of Nüwa becoming a Sage.
Another new idea arose in his mind.
"If I let the Abyss Plane completely rule the Douluo Continent and cause countless killings, then have Wulin become the savior and save the world."
"Wouldn't he be able to become a god through this method too?"
At that thought, everything suddenly became clear to Tang San.
He truly deserved to be called the God of Wisdom by the other gods.
When it came to brains alone, the other gods simply could not compare.
"That's right. Father has the ability to resurrect people anyway."
"Even if the Abyss Plane carries out a massacre and slaughters the entire Douluo Continent, I can have Wulin save the world then, and have Father step in to resurrect the Douluo Continent's original inhabitants."
"This would let Wulin become a god and also allow the Douluo Continent to break through its limits and evolve."
"I'm truly a genius."
You really are a devil.
This scene of attaining Sagehood had given many people different ideas.
And at that moment, in the Primordial World!
Apart from the lingering Dao fortune of creation left by Nüwa's attainment of Sagehood.
At the same time, a second, entirely different surge of Sage Dao fortune manifested throughout the Primordial World.
"What? Someone else has become a Sage?"
"Who is it? The Three Pure Ones? Or Zhunti? Daoist Jieyin?"
"Another one has actually become a god. How did they do it?"
Another surge of the same Sage presence left every living being in the Primordial World dumbfounded.
Nüwa becoming a Sage through Merit had already happened quite early.
Where had this second Sage popped out from?
Who was it?
Was it really the Three Pure Ones?
It shouldn't have happened this quickly, should it?
