Chapter 1731: NuWa Visits, NuWa Meets Daji (Second Update, Request Subscription)

Chat group.

Su Xiao: "That doesn't make sense. If WuDang Holy Mother can create heaven and earth and repay cosmic karma, others should be able to too. Why is Taixuan Brother so certain the Dao will choose the Path of Catastrophe instead of continuing with spiritual energy cultivation?"

Ye Hei: "Uh… have you ever taken out a loan?"

Su Xiao: "No, what does that have to do with this? Aren't we talking about cultivation?"

Ye Hei: "Rich people can borrow freely from banks—millions, tens of millions—even those without qualifications might get loans, because banks are desperate for them to borrow. Poor people? They face endless procedures, scrutiny over repayment ability—they're terrified you won't pay back."

Ye Hei: "The Fengshen world is probably the same. Those who can create heaven and earth and repay cosmic karma are Perfect Pure-Adventurers. Naturally, heaven and earth treat them kindly. What about those below Perfect Pure-Adventurer? Will heaven and earth still allow them to cultivate via spiritual energy?"

Su Xiao: "So, everyone below Perfect Pure-Adventurer is seen by the Dao as poor people with no collateral?"

Ye Hei: "Exactly. And WuDang Holy Mother's ability to create heaven and earth and repay cosmic karma rests on the Law granted by the Dao Lord. Others—even Perfect Pure-Adventurers—how can anyone guarantee they won't perish during creation? If they die in the process, won't the Dao's investment be wiped out? This path is far too risky for the Dao."

Ye Hei: "So the Dao has no choice—the Path of Catastrophe is the only evolutionary route for the new era."

Su Xiao: "I understand."

Xiao Mai: "I get it too."

Fang Yan: "What are banks and loans?"

Hu Yifei: "A bank is…"

Fang Yan: "I see. It's similar to the loan sharks back home."

Luo Fu Cave.

WuDang Holy Mother humbly asked a few more questions, then rose to take her leave, heading beyond heaven.

She had intended to first visit the Heavenly Court to meet a few fellow cultivators.

But in the end, she abandoned the idea.

Now, attaining the Dao was most important.

Besides, what would she say upon ascending to heaven?

That she had gained a Hunyuan opportunity?

Others might not believe her.

Even if they did, she couldn't reveal the Law granted by the Dao Lord.

WuDang Holy Mother deeply valued this opportunity, knew its rarity, and would never dare to teach it to others without the Dao Lord's permission.

…

After WuDang Holy Mother left, the sound of Dao discussion resumed in Luo Fu Cave.

It was called "Dao discussion," but in truth, Zhao Gongming, Tongtian, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao asked questions while Zhang Taixuan answered.

Problems that had baffled everyone for ages were, to Zhang Taixuan, simple matters, easily resolved.

"The Dao Lord is truly omnipotent, as if he knows everything," Tongtian sighed.

Zhang Taixuan shook his head and smiled: "Omniscient? Not even close!"

NuWa Palace.

NuWa sat upon a cloud bed, contemplating the Dao.

Since a thousand years ago, she had heard nothing from Hongjun Ancestor.

From that moment on, her progress in comprehending the Dao slowed.

As if the cosmic laws had closed to the Saints.

"Is this unique to me, or do my fellow cultivators experience the same?"

NuWa felt deep unease.

Yet she never asked her fellow disciples.

After all, a thousand years is too short.

If she asked every time she encountered difficulty, what kind of Saint would she be?

Thus, she spent a thousand years in doubt.

Until recently, this feeling grew stronger, stirring inner restlessness.

"This must mean something great is about to happen to heaven and earth," NuWa opened her eyes, unable to remain calm.

She had felt this before—several times.

Once when her brother Fuxi perished, once when the destiny of humanity was severed, and once when her brother was imprisoned in Huoyun Cave.

All bad omens.

This time, the feeling was stronger than ever.

"Could humanity be on the verge of extinction?"

NuWa frowned. "Or has my brother met with misfortune?"

After so many years, she understood Hongjun's intentions: humanity could bear the title of Heaven's Chosen, but never the reality.

Simply because Hongjun forbade it.

This troubled her deeply.

But she had no power to change it.

After all, one cannot fight against overwhelming force.

Saints were synonymous with invincibility before mortals.

Yet before Hongjun, they remained powerless.

"Logically, the Fengshen War shouldn't touch humanity, right?"

She knew well that the King of Humanity's authority was about to be stripped.

She had even prepared to go along with it.

After all, the King of Humanity's authority was no longer a blessing—it was a burning coal.

The Heavenly Court cannot tolerate this authority, the gods and buddhas cannot tolerate it, and most importantly, Hongjun and all the Saints cannot tolerate it.

If the human race truly clings to the Human King's authority and will not let go,

even she cannot guarantee the safety of the human race.

The momentum of the Three Realms is not something a single Saint like her can reverse.

Nüwa divined the heavenly secrets, sweat beading on her brow.

Suddenly, the heavenly secrets cleared.

"If one wishes to break the deadlock, one should go to Luo Fu?"

Many thoughts surfaced in Nüwa's mind, "Is this Luo Fu Luo Fu Mountain, or the Luo Fu Cave of Emei Mountain?"
