Nüwa Should Not Belittle Herself So
At this moment, Nüwa realized that Ao Changsheng was not making excuses, so she did not press the matter further. Instead, she changed the subject and asked another question, "Dao Ancestor, I have heard that you have many Dao artifacts in your cave abode. May I have the honor of taking a look?"
Ao Changsheng was taken aback. This woman actually wanted his most precious treasure?
Seeing Ao Changsheng hesitate, Nüwa continued, "If the Dao Ancestor dislikes my actions, I will naturally retreat and dare not force him."
"No need for that, how could this humble Daoist possibly find it unacceptable!"
Nüwa smiled gently, "In that case, thank you very much, Dao Ancestor."
Ao Changsheng felt a sense of helplessness, but he didn't show it on the surface. Instead, he took out his Dao artifact.
In Ao Changsheng's palm was a dark, ancient-looking object, resembling an old well.
This object was entirely black, with a flowing sheen on its surface, resembling a black crystal. However, it exuded an extremely dense, chilling aura, as if it were the coldest thing in the world. Moreover, Ao Changsheng sensed that this object was no ordinary thing, and it seemed to be even more precious than his own Dao artifact.
"This is..."
Upon seeing that thing, Nüwa's pupils constricted sharply, and a look of horror appeared on her face. "This is..."
Nüwa, as the first goddess of the Great Shang, rarely delved into the secrets of the world, but that didn't mean she was ignorant. At this moment, she recognized what this thing was.
"Indeed, this is the Dao Ancestor's supreme treasure, the Heavenly Gang Yin-Yang Mirror." Ao Changsheng asked, "Does Fairy Nüwa recognize the name of this mirror?"
Nüwa nodded. "This mirror is called the Yin-Yang Mirror. It is said that this Yin-Yang Mirror was created when Yin-Yang Mirror Yin and Yang energies were first formed at the beginning of the world. This mirror can gather the Yin and Yang energies of the world. When the Yin and Yang energies converge, they condense into a Yin-Yang Millstone. Within this millstone, endless heavenly thunder and earthly fire can be gathered, possessing immense power. Moreover, it can gather all the energy of Yin and Yang energies. This Yin-Yang Millstone can transform into all things, including Yin and Yang energies."
"I see. However, this Yin-Yang Mirror belongs to me, and I do not know how to use it. I only know that this Yin-Yang Mirror has great magical properties," Ao Changsheng said.
"If the Dao Ancestor doesn't mind, he might as well grant me a glimpse," Nüwa said.
"This item belongs to me. Nüwa may wish to examine it, but I recall that it has a characteristic: it can absorb the cultivation of others for its own use. This is not suitable for Fairy Nuwa to cultivate this technique."
Nüwa was furious, but she still smiled and said, "So that's how it is, Dao Ancestor. You misunderstood me. I don't want to absorb your cultivation. Rather, I want to use this Yin-Yang Yin-Yang Millstone to observe and comprehend the Dao of Yin and Yang. After all, my cultivation in the Primordial World is too low. If I want to break through, I can only rely on the Dao techniques of a great power like you."
"What Nüwa Nuwa said makes sense. Since Nüwa Nuwa wants to borrow it, then this humble Daoist will give it to you for a look!" Ao Changsheng said, and then took out the Yin- Yin-Yang Mirror.
Nüwa caught the Yin-Yang Mirror, and immediately a terrifying suction force was released from the Yin-Yang Mirror, surging towards Nüwa's mind.
His expression suddenly changed, but he quickly regained his footing. A wisp of his divine sense rushed into the Yin-Yang Mirror, and he began to observe its mysteries, appearing to be quickly engrossed in it.
Seeing this, Ao Changsheng thought to himself, "Nüwa is truly ruthless. She actually used her Dao sense to probe my treasure. Fortunately, I had already set up a restriction to isolate the Yin-Yang Mirror from the world. Otherwise, wouldn't Nüwa have been able to see all the mysteries inside? I wonder if those hidden treasures would have been stolen by her." Thinking of this, he felt extremely heartbroken.
Nüwa was immersed in her divine thoughts, and soon a look of joy appeared on her face.
"This Yin-Yang Millstone is indeed powerful."
Nüwa's eyes sparkled with delight as she looked at Ao Changsheng, her gaze filled with excitement and admiration. "Dao Ancestor, your Yin-Yang Millstone is indeed incredibly powerful. If Nüwa can master this technique, I'm sure I'll make rapid progress, and reaching the Innate Daluo Realm won't be a dream at all."
Ao Changsheng was slightly taken aback, not expecting Nüwa to be so direct, and he was startled.
Nüwa spoke these words without any concealment or restraint, but Ao Changsheng was also startled. This woman was no ordinary person. However, Ao Changsheng's face showed a look of sudden realization. "So, Fairy also wants to refine this Yin-Yang Millstone. Hehe, to be honest, Fairy, this Yin-Yang Millstone is also of great use to me. If Fairy wishes to obtain it, then please follow me!"
Nüwa's face lit up with joy upon hearing this, secretly pleased that Ao Changsheng had finally taken the bait. However, a tightness also gripped her heart. She was well aware of the immense importance of the Yin-Yang Millstone to the Great Shang, but at this moment, she felt no fear. She was absolutely confident that the Yin-Yang Millstone would not fall into the wrong hands. She was certain that after she cultivated to the Innate Daluo Realm, she could demand the Yin-Yang Millstone from Ao Changsheng. In that case, her strength would double again. At that time, what could a disciple of the Dao Ancestor do? She would still kill him without hesitation to vent her hatred.
"Dao Ancestor, this mirror is of great use to you as well. I wonder if you would be willing to part with it and give it to me?" Nüwa smiled slightly and said softly.
"Oh, this Yin-Yang Millstone was forged by this humble Daoist priest. How could I possibly give it to a fairy?" Ao Changsheng said calmly.
"Oh, since the Dao Ancestor refuses, then so be it. However, this item belongs to this humble Daoist, and I hope the Dao Ancestor will part with it."
Nüwa shook her head slightly upon hearing this, sighing inwardly that Ao Changsheng still didn't know how to appreciate kindness.
"However, I am unwilling to part with it. This Yin-Yang Millstone was painstakingly crafted by me, how could I possibly give it away? How about this, Nüwa Nuwa, this Yin-Yang Millstone was passed down to me by my master. Now that my master is in seclusion, I will bestow this treasure upon you, fellow Daoist. Please use it well."
After Ao Changsheng finished speaking, he threw the Yin-Yang Mirror in his hand to Nüwa.
Nüwa reached out and took it, overjoyed, and quickly said, "Excellent! Excellent! Thank you, Dao Ancestor!"
Nüwa accepted the Yin-Yang Mirror, overjoyed. She had truly struck gold this time. She never expected that her probing question would lead Ao Changsheng to give her a priceless treasure. This Yin-Yang Millstone was a legacy left to her by the Yin-Yang Dao Venerable. This treasure had been in the Yin-Yang Dao Venerable's hands for thousands of years and was covered with numerous restrictions. No one but him could open it. Even if the Heavenly Venerable Daode himself came, it would probably take him a very long time to open it.
After obtaining the Yin-Yang Millstone, Nüwa immediately left Ao Changsheng's residence and headed straight for the Daoist Grand Hall.
