Chapter 101: Tian Yuan's Major Discovery
Seeing Houtu appear, Tian Yuan cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, for realizing your own Dao."
In his sweeping gaze, Tian Yuan could clearly see a will surrounding Houtu.
That was the will unique to the Earthly Dao, carrying the aura of Reincarnation.
Upon hearing this, Houtu wore a solemn expression and performed a deep bow toward Tian Yuan.
"Many thanks, fellow Daoist. Without you, how could Houtu have this day, and the Wu Clan would have no future."
Just as she had thought, the moment she appeared, Tian Yuan had seen through her difference at a glance.
Everything that happened in the Netherworld, perhaps Tian Yuan knew it all clearly.
Houtu had an inexplicable illusion that everything before her eyes seemed to be Tian Yuan's arrangement.
Otherwise, upon entering this space, why would Tian Yuan ignore her? Thinking this, Houtu bowed deeply to Tian Yuan once more.
Such kindness was no less than the grace of Father God's rebirth.
Seeing Houtu so courteous, Tian Yuan did not refuse and generously accepted the two deep bows.
Although he did not control that body, Tian Yuan could still clearly feel the fusion of Mount Buzhou and the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk.
Without Mount Buzhou, Houtu would certainly have embarked on the path of merging her body with Reincarnation.
The Six Paths Reincarnation Disk was naturally nurtured by Heaven and Earth, so it could naturally be repaired by Heaven and Earth.
Houtu suffered schemes, leading to her being restricted to the Underworld, and the Earthly Dao also failed to reach perfection.
He not only helped Houtu but also revived the Earthly Dao; Tian Yuan understood Houtu's deep meaning.
Beside them, Nuwa and Fuxi looked suspicious, their eyes scanning Houtu up and down.
They were both Innate Sacreds; Houtu's two such great bows meant that what Tian Yuan said was not false.
The two observed carefully for a while; Fuxi did not understand the reason, but Nuwa, who was very familiar with Houtu, felt a trace of difference.
Although Houtu was also at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak, she seemed to carry an inexplicable Dao Rhyme, which was extremely profound.
This feeling was just like the Dao Ancestor in Purple Heaven Palace; yes, it was the Dao Ancestor of Purple Heaven Palace.
Nuwa's breath hitched, and she could not suppress the shock in her eyes.
Was Houtu's Dao so terrifying? That person in Purple Heaven Palace was a Saint; could it be that Houtu also had such an opportunity?
Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Nuwa spoke softly, "Congratulations, Sister Houtu!"
Having realized her own Dao, her future cultivation would surely be smooth sailing.
Nuwa could not help but think of the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil; perhaps Tian Yuan really knew her Dao.
Thinking this, Nuwa's peripheral vision unconsciously looked toward Tian Yuan on the side, but she happened to meet his gaze.
The strange expression in Tian Yuan's eyes made Nuwa slightly stunned for a moment, feeling somewhat baffled.
Seeing Nuwa look over, Tian Yuan did not mind and nodded slightly in a natural manner.
He was somewhat puzzled; it was true that Houtu was the Lord of the Earthly Dao, but Nuwa's identity was not simple either.
Nuwa was one of the Six Saints of Heaven and Earth in later generations, and everyone said she was a Heavenly Dao Saint, but Tian Yuan did not think so.
Nuwa did not achieve sainthood through merit, nor was she a Heavenly Dao Saint, but a Humanity Saint.
Houtu had great fortune; logically, when Nuwa entered this space, she should also have had some perception.
But in this short time, this Demon Emperor had no other abnormalities besides being shocked by the surrounding scenery.
"Thanks to you, fellow Daoist Tian Yuan!" Houtu nodded, joy in her eyes.
When her gaze swept over Fuxi on the side, Houtu's eyes were a bit strange.
However, she had no time to pay attention to him; her gaze looked toward the distant sky, where she vaguely felt a familiar fluctuation, as if—Houtu, with great joy on her face, hurriedly asked, "Fellow Daoist Tian Yuan, have you captured all my brothers and brought them in?"
She had already been dissatisfied with her brothers, and now having gained an opportunity in the Netherworld, Houtu was even more determined in her choice.
This was the destiny of the Wu Clan; the Ancestral Witches should be like her, guarding the Netherworld.
Listening to Houtu's slightly excited words, Fuxi's mouth twitched, and he glared angrily at Nuwa on the side.
Houtu still relied on Tian Yuan to take action, but his own little sister was better; she had directly tied him in.
Looking at the current situation, he was afraid he would not be able to get out.
"Only Gonggong has been captured; the rest will take some time!" Tian Yuan replied with a smile.
Houtu was a little disappointed, then said, "If you have any requests in the future, fellow Daoist, just say so."
Tian Yuan had given her such great fortune; whether it was to benefit the Primordial World or for the Wu Clan, Houtu would not refuse.
Tian Yuan nodded and said nothing more; Mount Buzhou was able to communicate with the Earthly Dao Will, and he wanted to carefully perceive the changes in Mount Buzhou, perhaps he could also obtain some information from the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk.
Regarding the situation of the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk, it was clear that the Primordial World still had secrets he did not know.
After letting Nuwa and the other follow Houtu, Tian Yuan disappeared directly from the scene.
"Sister Houtu, what exactly is this place?" Seeing Tian Yuan disappear, Nuwa asked impatiently.
Fuxi, who was beside her, also looked over with attention at this moment.
There were Earth Veins, a divine mountain, and actually Houtu's Dao.
"This is the space of Mount Buzhou's will; it can be said to be the internal world of the Primordial World." Meeting their gazes, Houtu did not hide it.
Having come to this space, unless one gained Tian Yuan's trust, it was impossible to leave, and she had no need to hide it.
Moreover, Houtu believed that if she gave Nuwa and the other some time, they would also be able to figure it out. As she spoke, Houtu's gaze swept across the towering Heavenly Pillar, and she was suddenly shocked.
"Father—Father God's heart!!!" On Mount Buzhou, which was shrouded in Mysterious Yellow Qi, Houtu felt an extremely familiar fluctuation.
With a shocked expression, Houtu flew out hurriedly.
Nuwa was also stunned and immediately followed, but from behind came Fuxi's slightly angry voice: "Little sister, why don't you untie me yet?"
Glancing behind her, Nuwa beckoned with her delicate hand, the golden light flew back, and Fuxi regained his freedom.
Having briefly witnessed the extraordinariness of this space, Nuwa was not at all worried that Fuxi could leave.
Looking around angrily, Fuxi hurriedly followed the pace of the two women.
Regardless of whether he can get out later, he must first understand this space.
Tian Yuan paid no mind to how the others were doing; returning to the sacred mountain, he calmed his mind and instantly transformed into the towering Mount Buzhou.
At the very first moment, he felt a soft will connecting with him, revealing reliance and affection.
Tian Yuan responded with a surge of will, and immediately, feelings of joy and excitement were transmitted back.
This was a form of communication unique to Mount Buzhou; there were no words, yet everything could be clearly understood.
To Tian Yuan's surprise, the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk was also unclear about its own situation.
After waking from a hazy state, she had been in a damaged condition, lacking her previous memories.
If not for the gradual awakening of the Mount Buzhou will, she would not have been able to communicate with Houtu, let alone connect with Mount Buzhou as she was now.
Tian Yuan was somewhat disappointed; it was actually the same situation as his own, and Tian Yuan did not know if they were being plotted against by the same person.
Fortunately, the Mount Buzhou will was constantly communing with the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk, which could be considered an unexpected gain.
The awakening of the Mount Buzhou will, as it turned out, was not just about dredging the Earth Vein.
Obtaining the Pangu Heart was one path, and connecting with the Earthly Dao Will was another method; this could not help but make Tian Yuan think of the Humanity Will.
The Heavenly Dao Will was surely being controlled by Hongjun at this moment.
If the Humanity Will was not with Nuwa, then it must be with Hongyun.
According to Tian Yuan's speculation, the probability was higher that it was that unlucky fellow Hongyun.
During the Dragon Han First Tribulation, Hongyun had not attained the Dao, and now that the Witch-Demon were at their peak and the Heaven and Earth Luck was constantly gathering, Humanity had hope, so it was impossible for a guy like Hongyun to still be alive.
Having figured this out, Tian Yuan had already placed the matter of Hongyun on his agenda.
Mount Buzhou stood tall between heaven and earth, not only benefiting all things and spirits of the Primordial World but also connecting the Heaven Earth and Man Three Daos.
The Heavenly Dao, Earthly Dao, and Humanity were originally meant to complement each other and jointly maintain the operation of the Primordial World, but now they had been inexplicably severed.
As the Mount Buzhou will strengthened, perhaps it would not be long before he could sense the existence of Humanity.
It was just that the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk was currently damaged and unable to open the Six Paths of Reincarnation passage; the construction of the Underworld would still take some time.
The most urgent task remained the rapid strengthening of the Mount Buzhou will.
Below Mount Buzhou, Gonggong saw Houtu in the air and immediately shouted angrily: "Houtu! Are you trying to betray the Wu Clan?"
Gonggong was furious in his heart; being surrounded and beaten by nearly a hundred stone men, even if his Ancestral Witch Body was remarkable, he was in an extremely wretched state.
Fuxi and Nuwa looked at the increasing number of stone men, their eyes filled with strangeness.
In just this short while, dozens of Great Luo Golden Immortals had emerged.
The two, frowning, looked carefully, and both their eyes widened abruptly, their faces filled with shock.
Earlier, they had felt these stone men were strange, and at this moment, Nuwa and the other discovered that those stone men were each mastering a single law.
And the laws displayed by the additional stone men were exactly the same as the laws their brother and sister were most proficient in.
Was this also Tian Yuan's doing?
The two looked at each other, feeling a hint of horror.
Houtu, standing to the side, did not know what Nuwa and the other were thinking; seeing that Gonggong remained obsessed and unrepentant, she sighed and said: "Father God's heart has already been taken away; do you still not understand?"
Although she had told Tian Yuan the weaknesses of the Ancestral Witches, Houtu had not mentioned the matter of the Pangu Temple.
But she had not expected that, in the short time since they last met, Tian Yuan would have brought Father God's heart here.
With this item lost, what future could the Wu Clan have to speak of?
This place was the final destination for the Wu Clan!
"Roar! We are the Pangu Orthodox; the Primordial World should be governed by the Ancestral Witches. Mere Great Demons are indulging in wishful thinking!" Gonggong roared angrily, his furious gaze fixed on the peak of Mount Buzhou.
Houtu let out a soft sigh and stopped paying attention to Gonggong, looking at the two people beside her with a hint of apology: "I have embarrassed you two fellow Daoists. The Ancestral Witches do not understand the heavenly mandate and only know how to ravage the Primordial World; this is indeed our fault."
During her journey to the Netherworld, Houtu had already learned of the mission of the Wu Clan; they were born with Malevolent Qi, and the Netherworld was more suitable for them.
"Sister Houtu has such enlightenment; Nuwa feels deep admiration!"
Houtu had indeed made her choice earlier than she had; her gaze involuntarily drifted toward Fuxi beside her.
Fuxi, waiting in the field, had an awkward expression and did not know how to reply to Houtu.
Clearly, Houtu, who had arrived in this space early, did not know the situation on the Primordial World.
Fuxi had already arrived here, and Nuwa did not want to embarrass her brother, so she hurriedly asked about this space.
And at this moment, Tian Yuan, who had submerged his will into Mount Buzhou, finally discovered the source of the Blood Fiend Qi beneath the Earth Vein.
It was truly the Nether Blood Sea! (End of chapter)
