Fuxi Takes Action! Shennong Reaches Perfection

When many Human Race cultivators arrived.

What I saw was this scene before my eyes.

With a complex mix of emotions—three parts resoluteness, three parts anger, and three parts madness— Shennong charged into the dark clouds without hesitation.

They charged into the thunder.

Behind him, the nascent Great Dao slowly emerged.

As the Great Dao created by Shennong, this Great Dao was not named.

However, this Great Dao was created by Shennong over millions of years when he was studying agriculture and medicine.

It contains all the effort that Shennong put into both medicine and agriculture.

"Haha, let me see what remedy this fate of yours truly requires!"

Shennong's loud laughter shook the heavens and resounded throughout the world.

"Shennong-shi!"

"The Human Emperor!"

Immediately, some people's expressions changed drastically, and they were about to rush forward regardless of the danger, but they were blocked by the people next to them.

"Stop it!"

"Stop!"

"If we step forward, we will only add to the Human Emperor's burden."

These people shouted at the cultivators who wanted to step forward.

Startled by the shout, those figures who were about to rush forward stopped.

Gazing at the terrifying power in the sky, they roared in fury, their eyes bloodshot with resentment as they looked at Shennong, who was being struck by lightning in the distance.

Lightning bolts, like pillars, slanted downwards. In the center of the thunder, Shennong defied the odds, braving the lightning and charging straight into the dark clouds.

They rushed into the great net woven from the Divine Chains of Order and the Three Thousand Great Dao.

"I see, I see..."

At that moment, Shennong's loud laughter echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

Then, Shennong burst forth from the dark clouds, his body covered in wounds, yet brimming with vitality...

Without a doubt.

Shennong is at peace!

"The Human Emperor!"

The scene before them filled the Human Race cultivators, who had been filled with despair, with immense joy and excitement.

They wanted to rush forward to greet Shennong.

"Stop!"

Shennong shouted, stopping the crowd that wanted to step forward.

The Human Race Daluo, who were about to step forward, only then realized that although Shennong had emerged from the dark clouds,...

This calamity, however, was far from over.

The look of surprise on the faces of the Human Race Daluo froze, turning back into endless worry.

In the distance, Shennong, disregarding his injuries, stared intently at the churning black clouds in the sky, his expression extremely solemn.

"Everyone, listen carefully to what I have to say!" Shennong's voice reached the ears of many Human Race Daluo.

"In this era, the world has undergone tremendous changes, making it difficult for all races of the Primordial World to cultivate. However, our Human Race, relying on the Fuxi Eight Trigrams created by the Saint Emperor Fuxi, is able to cultivate."

"However, they are also Curse by the will of Heaven. In this era, those who break through to the Daluo realm and reach the Quasi-Sage will suffer calamity."

"The Daluo... represents the pinnacle of Human Race in our era."

After a slight pause, Shennong hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "Once your cultivation reaches the Perfection Daluo stage, perhaps you can go to the Fire Cloud Cave to find the Saint Emperor Fuxi."

"The Human Emperor!"

"Shennong, the Human Emperor!"

Upon hearing Shennong's words, which sounded like a deathbed entrustment, the surrounding Daluo all had bloodshot eyes, filled with extreme resentment.

"Gentlemen, the Human Race is now in your hands!"

Feeling the gazes of the Daluo of the Human Race, Shennong turned around and gave them a bright smile.

"Human Race prosper forever!"

"Boom!"

The world was suddenly filled with blinding lightning; even Daluo Golden Immortal could not see through the terrifying lightning.

The tremendous roar did not block Shennong's words, which accurately reached the ears of many Human Race Daluo.

Tears instantly streamed down the faces of the Human Race Daluo, as they gazed at the vast expanse of white sky and earth, tears flowing uncontrollably.

As the lightning gradually dissipated.

Suddenly, the despairing gazes of Human Race Daluo cultivators froze.

Shennong in the distance...

It's nothing!

A translucent white dragon was circling around Shennong, firmly blocking the lightning filled with terrifying destructive power and protecting Shennong.

A wisp of purple qi quietly drifted out from the translucent dragon's body and merged into Shennong's body.

At this moment, Shennong exuded a rich Daoist aura, completely concealing his Shennong Hunyuan Golden Immortal and the aura of the newly born Great Dao.

"This is... the Sacred Dragon!"

Shennong looked at the white dragon coiled around him, a look of astonishment in his eyes.

Whether it was when the Saint Emperor Fuxi was born and became emperor, or when Shennong became emperor, this White Dragon phantom appeared.

The Human Race would naturally investigate any information about this White Dragon.

Although finding the Dragon Race is impossible, as early as the time of Fuxi, the Human Race had already searched for information about the Dragon Race.

Although all that was learned was that the Dragon Race was once one of the dominant forces in the Primordial World, there was no other useful information.

But... at least I now know the name 'Dragon'.

From then on, the Human Race referred to the dragon shadow that appeared when Fuxi was born and when the Human Race's supreme ruler became the Human Emperor as the Sacred Dragon!

Although Shennong's aura was concealed, the lightning in the sky, which had already locked onto Shennong, showed no intention of letting Shennong go.

Thousands of bolts of lightning, each tens of millions of feet tall, poured down, striking heavily the illusory 'Sacred Dragon' surrounding Shennong.

Sudden...

Above the horizon, the dark clouds quietly parted, and accompanied by a golden, sacred light, nine divine Phoenix descended from the sky, pulling a fiery red chariot.

A golden imperial edict suddenly flew out from the carriage.

Eight strange symbols, one long and one short, from which the Innate Eight Trigrams flew out and landed in various strange phenomena in the sky.

Then, an illusory world slowly emerged from the Eight Trigrams, encompassing all the dark clouds and thunder, and then merged into the decree.

"This... this..."

The ordeal that nearly cost him his life—no, it should be said that it almost led to his death tenfold—was resolved just like that.

Shennong and the many Daluo Golden Immortal of the Human Race were all stunned by the nonchalant manner in which the decree was presented.

"Human Emperor Shennong-shi, your merits are now complete. Immediately proceed to the Fire Cloud Cave to eternally protect the Human Race!" Fuxi's voice emanated from the decree.

At that moment, the Jiufeng Chariot landed in front of Shennong.

"Yes, Saint Emperor Majesty!"

Shennong realized what was happening and quickly responded.

He then boarded the Jiufeng Chariot and smiled as he looked down at the many Daluo Human Race of the Shennong race.

"Gentlemen, the Human Race is now in your hands!"

"Human Race prosper forever!"

Shennong-shi's voice came from afar, from the horizon.

The exact same words, but completely different circumstances and completely different feelings.

Many of the Daluo Human Race watched the departing Jiufeng Chariot and Shennong above, all raising their hands to wipe away the tears from the corners of their eyes.

"Honestly, I should have closed my eyes earlier. Staring at that lightning made my eyes water from the intense light," a Daluo Immortal said, slightly embarrassed.

"Who says otherwise!" another Daluo responded.

The Daluo looked at their clansmen around them who were doing the same thing, and they all burst into laughter at the same time.

"Hahaha--"

Laughter echoed continuously across the devastated landscape.

Fire Cloud Cave.

"Before this happened, I really hadn't noticed that my clansmen who practiced the Fuxi Eight Trigrams had unknowingly all embarked on the path of Hunyuan Daluo."

Fuxi held and played with a small black bead in his hand, from which a faint light occasionally flashed.

"Smack~"

The bead in Fuxi's hand was crushed to powder by you. A faint arc of electricity flickered in Fuxi's hand before dissipating without a trace.

Upon closer reflection, Fuxi felt that it was almost inevitable for the Human Race at this time to embark on the path of Hunyuan Daluo.

At this time, the secrets of the Primordial World were in chaos, and the Great Dao was not revealed.

During this period, no one was able to comprehend the Great Dao of Cultivation.

The Human Race, on the other hand, uses the Fuxi Eight Trigrams, which he created, to deduce and calculate the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth through the manifestations of the natural world, and then cultivates themselves.

If it were Fuxi, he would naturally be able to deduce the Great Dao that is exactly the same as that in the Primordial World.

But...

Not everyone can be like Fuxi.

The Great Dao deduced by a normal cultivator using the Fuxi Eight Trigrams is bound to be different from the Great Dao in the Primordial World.

Even the same Great Dao deduced by different people will never be the same.

However, the Fuxi Eight Trigrams, which Fuxi created and perfected with great effort, would naturally not deduce an incorrect result.

In other words, a flawed deduction of the Great Dao will collapse the moment it appears, rather than being used for cultivation.

Although it differs from the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

However, what Fuxi Eight Trigrams deduced was absolutely the true Great Dao.

This kind of Great Dao, which carries a strong personal touch, also has another very resounding name in the Primordial World.

"The Path of the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal!"

Although Fuxi didn't know the reason, he did know that the one at the very top...

It rejects the path of the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

At this time, the Primordial World did not have the fertile ground for the growth of the Hunyuan Daluo Dao.

"The Heavenly Court! Dao Ancestor Hongjun!" Fuxi murmured to himself, a rare look of solemnity appearing on his face, as he turned to look at the East Sea.

"Perhaps I should go see my dear teacher!"

East Sea!

If Zhenyuanzi were here, he would probably question the meaning of life once again.

After all, the sound of walking on the waves, step by step into the depths of the East Sea, could only belong to Fuxi, who was eternally guarding the Fire Cloud Cave.

Certainly.

Fuxi can explain this.

The Human Emperor Fuxi is eternally imprisoned in the Fire Cloud Cave; when will my Fuxi's Good Corpse, be confined here?

Fuxi (speaking righteously)!

"East Sea!"

"Come to think of it, this seems to be my first time setting foot in the East Sea!"

Gazing at the vast East Sea, even Fuxi, in his current state of mind, couldn't help but feel a surge of heroic spirit rising within him.

Then...

"What brings you here, fellow Daoist?" Fuxi asked, looking down at the large tortoise that had appeared at his feet and lifted him up.

"Brother, oh no, fellow Daoist, judging from the direction you're going, you must also be heading to listen to the Sage preach!"

A clear, melodious female voice rang out from the giant Linggui's mouth, its tone gentle and pleasant, yet somewhat boisterous.

"Let me tell you, you're going too slowly. If you walk step by step, you won't even reach the end of the Sage's sermon. So, I've decided to carry you across."

"I... am slow!"

Fuxi looked at the Linggui at his feet and fell into deep thought.

But looking at the speed, which was many times faster than his previous stroll... it seemed that what the Linggui said was indeed true.

"Then thank you very much, fellow Daoist!" Fuxi said softly.

As a tortoise enthusiast who always had tortoise shells in his hands, Fuxi was quite polite to these Linggui.

Sitting cross-legged, Fuxi examined the tortoise shell beneath him.

Because it was carrying Fuxi, the Linggui was not small at this time, which allowed Fuxi to see the patterns on its shell more clearly.

"Hmm... this tortoise shell is really beautiful, much better than the one I had back then," Fuxi thought to himself.

Below, the mother Linggui suddenly felt a cool breeze surge into her from the top of her head, travel through her entire body, and then dissipate.

"What's going on? Why does it suddenly feel so cold..." The Linggui wondered, then channeled its meager Law Power around its body to dispel the chill.

"Mmm, that feels good!"

"Fellow Daoist, where do you come from? Judging from your appearance, you must be Human Race!" the Linggui asked curiously.

"Hmm, you have a good eye! I am Human Race!" Fuxi chuckled.

"Wuhu, I was right after all. In the Primordial World, apart from Human Race, no other race in their Innate Dao Body form walks on two legs; they all fly."

The Linggui let out a joyful cry.

Fuxi: "..."

Does walking on two legs in a state of Innate Dao Body automatically make Human Race? What kind of logic is that?

"Fellow Daoist, this must be your first time coming to the East Sea to hear the Sage preach! Let me tell you, the Sage exceptionally good; all kinds of beings in the East Sea are welcome to listen to his teachings."

"Moreover, the Sage's sermons are particularly captivating, though somewhat hypnotic. Every time, I and everyone else would fall asleep towards the end..."

At this point, the Linggui stuck out its tongue sheepishly.

Although... Fuxi didn't find it particularly cute.

Then, the Linggui began to speak at length.

From the Sage's sermons to interesting stories about the East Sea, from the East Sea stories to the East Sea, and from the East Sea legends to the various powers in the East Sea.

The conversation started with the sphere of influence in the East Sea, and then moved on to where the best fish and shrimp were found in the East Sea...

Even Fuxi's expression was somewhat stiff at this moment. Suddenly, a brilliant idea popped into Fuxi's mind.

"It seems I don't need to worry about giving my teacher a gift anymore."
