Chapter 1743: Edict of Enthronement: The Three Sovereigns Attain Sainthood (Second Update, Request Subscription)

"Alright, the great battle is over—it's time to divide the spoils."

Zhang Taixuan smiled faintly. "The four Holy Seats have been reclaimed; Zhao Gongming and Wu Dang each receive one, and one belongs to Nüwa. How is that?"

Nüwa was overjoyed: "Thank you, Dao Zun."

She had contributed nothing to the victory, yet she received a Holy Seat—this was an unimaginable blessing.

As for the remaining Holy Seat, no one mentioned it.

"The final Holy Seat, of course, shall be held by Huang Di of the human race."

With a thought, Zhang Taixuan shattered the seal of Huoyun Cave.

Huang Di had always been a Peak Pretender Saint, but due to Hong Jun's suppression of the human race, he had been sealed within Huoyun Cave.

Now, personally invested by Zhang Taixuan, the last fragment of Holy authority settled upon him.

Instantly, purple qi filled the heavens, engulfing the Three Realms—as a new Saint emerged.

"Thank you, Ancestor Taixuan!"

Within the Three Huang Cave, the Three Huang, though unable to join the battle, had watched every event outside with perfect clarity.

Upon receiving the Holy Seat, Huang Di immediately performed Xie En.

Nüwa, seeing this, imitated him.

"Brother, I give you my Holy Seat."

Nüwa had few disciples; most were merely servants.

Her Holy Seat could only go to her own brother.

In terms of emotion, in terms of bloodline, her brother was the only suitable choice.

As she spoke, Fuxi instantly became a Saint, seizing a portion of Heaven and Earth's authority.

Instantly, Fuxi's ancient memories returned.

"Brother, welcome back."

"Hahahaha…" Fuxi laughed loudly. "I never thought I'd reclaim everything again. Thank you, sister. Thank you, Ancestor Taixuan."

Logically, after Fuxi became a Jin Xian, his past-life memories should have awakened.

But he chose to become a Human King, and the way he regained his memories was bizarre—he had only the memories, devoid of emotion, as if he had merely read a novel with Fuxi as the protagonist.

There was nothing to be done.

Hong Jun suppressed the human race and naturally did not want Fuxi to grow too strong.

Even though Fuxi could not cause major upheaval.

Yet Hong Jun refused to take even the slightest risk.

Thus, Fuxi had remained dazed and confused—even as a Human Emperor, he never regained his ancient past.

"Shennong Shi, tasted a hundred herbs and taught the human race—his merit deserves sainthood."

Zhang Taixuan, aware two Holy Seats remained, turned his gaze to the final figure within Huoyun Cave.

Instantly, Shennong became a Saint; crimson fire blazed across the heavens, illuminating the Three Realms.

"Shennong?"

"Hong Yun?"

Shennong was bewildered, then burst into laughter: "From now on, Hong Yun no longer exists—I am Shennong. Shennong Shi, bows in thanks to Ancestor Taixuan!"

Seeing two old friends become Saints, it was impossible not to feel envy.

They were Saints—supreme beings of the Three Realms.

Yet he had never expected he, too, would receive a Holy Seat.

"No need for formalities!" Zhang Taixuan chuckled, turning toward Emei.

During the battle, Zhang Taixuan had sealed Emei—even a Saint could not enter.

Now that the battle was over, the seal lifted; Bi Xiao and Qiong Xiao rode upon auspicious clouds straight toward the battlefield.

"Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao, for your service to the Taixuan Sect, you shall become Saints. The Holy Seat shall be held alternately by the two, one Yuan Hui per term."

Qiong Xiao had just arrived when she heard this news—her heart swelled with joy.

But why must she and her sister take turns?

Tong Tian was stunned: "Can you even do that?"

Zhang Taixuan smiled: "The Holy Seat is the authority of the world. As long as the world permits, it may be used however one wishes."

"All of you, in the next aeon, the Dao will lift the seals on the three thousand Divine Demon Dao Fruits. Every Saint may study and cultivate them. Do not let this opportunity slip away."

"Everyone, after one epoch, the Heavenly Dao will unseal the Dao Fruits of the three thousand Divine Demons. Any Saint may comprehend and cultivate them. Once you become Saints, do not miss this opportunity."

"We humbly obey the decree of Patriarch Taixuan."
