Chapter 171: The Second Main Vein Opens

In the Sanqing Palace on Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun opened his eyes, a look of annoyance on his face.

Cultivate, cultivate—he simply could not calm his heart to cultivate.

Of the six Meditation Cushions in Purple Heaven Palace, they were not only Personal Disciples but also the seniors of those few.

It was one thing for Nuwa to become a Saint, but for even Jieyin and Zhunti to take that step, how could he not be anxious?

During this time, he had tried to force his mind to settle, but let alone gaining insight into the Hongmeng Purple Qi, even entering meditation was difficult to achieve.

The scenes of the Western Two Sages becoming Saints kept surfacing in his mind; things could not go on like this.

Yuanshi turned his head to look to his left, meeting Tongtian's eyes just in time.

He frowned and asked softly, "Third Brother, are you also unable to cultivate with peace of mind?"

Tongtian, however, rolled his eyes and said with some helplessness, "Second Brother! It is you who keep moving about, the shad—"

Seeing Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes widening, Tongtian's words gradually grew quieter, and in the end, he could only pout.

Although the sainthood of Jieyin and Zhunti also greatly surprised Tongtian, he did not care much about it.

Existence is reasonable; everyone has their own opportunities.

It was just that regarding the cultivation of the Hongmeng Purple Qi, he still had no leads whatsoever.

The three brothers had all severed their Three Corpses, but where the next step lay remained hazy and obscure.

Glancing at Tongtian with annoyance, Yuanshi looked at Laozi to the side; he could sense that his Big Brother had also awakened.

"Sigh!"

Laozi, having opened his eyes, let out a faint sigh.

He had been the first to sever his Three Corpses and had begun studying the Hongmeng Purple Qi long ago, yet to this day, he still had no clue.

Laozi felt some regret in his heart; when Nuwa became a Saint, they should have gone there immediately.

Everyone's Dao is different, but one might gain something by referencing the Dao of others.

Now that so much time had passed, Laozi could not bring himself to go see Nuwa.

Listening to his Big Brother's sigh, Yuanshi Tianzun wore a troubled expression, yet he did not know what to say.

It was Tongtian on the other side who spoke softly: "Big Brother! Junior Sister Nuwa became a Saint on the East Sea Shore; we could go there for a visit, perhaps we might make a discovery."

Sitting idly in the mountains without any gains was not as good as wandering the Great Desolate land; perhaps he might have a sudden enlightenment.

Jieyin and Zhunti established their sects and made many great vows to the Heavenly Dao to become Saints, but they were completely unclear about the method by which Nuwa became a Saint.

Hearing Tongtian's words, Yuanshi Tianzun felt a flicker of interest, but he still looked toward Laozi.

He wanted to go, but the pride in his heart prevented him from speaking.

Laozi's expression remained unmoved, yet his eyes, calm as an ancient well, looked toward the direction of the East Sea.

Just at this moment, a humming sound rang in their ears, and the three of them looked simultaneously at Mount Buzhou beneath them.

Just now, they had clearly felt Kunlun Mountain tremble, as if some mysterious charm had drifted out.

Almost at the same time, the three realized that the spiritual energy on Kunlun Mountain had become much denser.

"The heavens are manifesting; this trip may hold a great opportunity!" Tongtian's eyes brightened slightly, his face filled with excitement.

Beside him, Yuanshi Tianzun also nodded slightly, his mood becoming a little more pleasant.

He did not know when it had started, but Kunlun Mountain was becoming increasingly spiritual.

"Since that is the case, we shall make a trip to that East Sea Shore!" As he spoke, Laozi slowly stood up.

The three of them did not linger for a moment and headed straight for the East Sea.

The commotion during Nuwa's breakthrough had not been small; they all remembered the fluctuations of that surging aura clearly.

Before long, the three arrived at the place where Nuwa had attained the Dao. Before they could even land, their eyes narrowed. On the banks of the Wei River, figures that were somewhat familiar yet somewhat strange appeared.

"That is... the Innate Dao Body!" Yuanshi Tianzun exclaimed, immediately flying down.

It had been a long time since they had taken human form, and they had seen countless living beings, yet they had never seen the beings before them.

Born in human form, just like the Pangu Great God, Yuanshi Tianzun could not help but take a deep breath.

Tongtian and Laozi, who had landed from the air, also had eyes flashing with brilliance.

Without a doubt, Nuwa's sainthood was absolutely related to these beings.

With a flash of Divine Sense, almost at the same time, the Sanqing learned of the process of Nuwa's sainthood: she had become a Saint by creating the Human Race.

Creating beings with the same form as the Pangu Great God—Junior Sister Nuwa was indeed not simple.

Yet, thinking of the merit that had been reclaimed by the heavens, Laozi and the others felt some confusion in their eyes.

"Big Brother, could it be that we must also create living beings?" Yuanshi Tianzun withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Laozi.

Laozi shook his head and responded softly, "How could becoming a Saint be so simple."

Everyone's Dao is different, and Nuwa's sainthood clearly revealed something strange.

If their path to sainthood was also to create living beings, they would surely have had some realization by now, but Laozi had no such feeling at all.

"In any case, there is nothing to do for now; let us first take a look at these humans." As he spoke, Tongtian flew toward the nearest human settlement.

Being able to allow Nuwa to become a Saint directly, these humans must have a great secret.

Laozi did not speak, his figure following closely behind.

Yuanshi Tianzun, who had landed last, hesitated slightly before following as well.

The sainthood of Nuwa and the others not only shocked the beings of the Great Desolate but also strongly stimulated them.

Some beings went into seclusion to cultivate with focus, while others traveled hundreds of millions of miles to Mount Sumeru in the Western Region, seeking to be accepted as disciples under a Saint.

Around Mount Buzhou, many beings who hoped to see Nuwa had also gathered.

However, the might of Mount Buzhou had greatly increased, and few beings could climb the mountain, let alone find the Wa Palace.

And within the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space, having witnessed Tian Yuan's power, both the Witch and Demon Clans were striving to purify and dredge the Earth Veins.

This was not only because Tian Yuan had repelled the two Demon Emperors, but also because of the existence of the Saint, Nuwa.

Being able to have a Saint follow them, what reason did they have not to exert themselves?

Within that canyon on Mount Buzhou, Tian Yuan, who was in deep meditation, felt his body tremble slightly and immediately opened his eyes.

He saw Mount Buzhou beneath him rumbling, with a monstrous momentum surging forth, while the mountain body grew crazily toward the firmament above.

Before he could even stand up, Tian Yuan felt the laws of Gungun surging beneath him, pouring violently into his body.

In an instant, multicolored light of rhyme enveloped him; it was the numerous laws manifested from his Consciousness Space.

"The second Main Vein has been completely purified!" Looking at the laws circling his body, Tian Yuan could not suppress the excitement in his eyes.

The speed at which this Main Vein was cleared was far faster than he had imagined.

It took a full half-stick of incense for the laws enveloping his body to slowly fade, yet Tian Yuan had not broken through.

"Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, it really isn't that simple!" Tian Yuan muttered, his figure slowly disappearing from Mount Buzhou.

Having cleared another Main Vein, there was now only the final one left in the Eastern Land.

The efficiency of the Demon Race was too slow; he would throw that group of the Wu Clan into it to accelerate the purification of that Main Vein.

Proving the Dao to Hunyuan and achieving the status of Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal was the primary task at hand.

Appearing atop the divine mountain, Tian Yuan looked toward the last Main Vein with excitement in his eyes.
