Chapter 464: The Ultimate Treasure of the Six Paths of Reincarnation

The Sanqing Sect sent personnel to take control of the Underworld.

Sister Houtu did not oppose this move.

On one hand, because her authority as Master of the Six Paths of Reincarnation had been granted to her by Luo Fu.

On the other hand, Sister Houtu understood that it would be extremely difficult for her alone to monopolize the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

As one who had once been favored by the Heavenly Dao's tide.

Under the power of the Heavenly Dao back then, she had glimpsed fragments of the future.

She knew better than anyone how immense the merit and fortune hidden within the Six Paths of Reincarnation truly were — it was inexhaustible.

Living beings are constantly born, and constantly die.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation is a transit point for rebirth.

As long as the Six Paths of Reincarnation never cease, the acquisition of merit naturally never stops.

To some extent, this is analogous to Nüwa creating humanity.

Nüwa, by creating humanity, directly gained vast amounts of merit and fortune, because the human race is the central focus of Heaven and Earth.

Whenever humanity achieves anything or gains merit in the future, Nüwa would share in it.

Thus, after creating humanity, even if Nüwa did nothing else, the merit she received would flow endlessly.

Sister Houtu's situation was much the same.

But in the end, after Nüwa created humanity, both the Sanqing and the Two Western Sages all managed to claim a portion of humanity's merit and fortune.

Laozi clearly established the Human Sect and transmitted the Jin Dan Dao.

Laozi became a highly respected elder among humanity.

Meanwhile, Master Yuanshi, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and the Two Western Sages had far less interaction with humanity at this time.

The fundamental reason.

Is that this is the Era of Hegemonic Struggle — the Wu and Yao clans are the central focus of Heaven and Earth, not humanity.

Thus, the Sanqing and even the Two Western Sages had not yet spread their teachings in this primordial world.

Because the Wu and Yao clans, as the core source of the Great Calamity,

the high echelons of two clans would never allow the Shengrenjiao Sect to spread among them; moreover, as the Great Calamity was about to erupt, any Sage who joined would be insane.

Only after the Wu-Yao Great Calamity ends, when humanity becomes the central focus of Heaven and Earth,

will the Sages begin their missionary work.

Therefore, for Nüwa, she could never fully monopolize humanity's merit and fortune — after all, the other Sages were all watching.
