Chapter 49: Emerging from Seclusion, Two Friends Are Hurrying Over

When Qi emerged from seclusion, the three tribes' power was blazing like fire; amidst many innate divine sages in seclusion, they had indeed become the overlords of the wilderness.

However, there were still tribes not very obedient to their control.

Among the scaled creatures, the snake tribe was the most unwilling to submit to the dragon tribe's discipline; they themselves possessed two innate divine sages, and there were not few snake-system innate divine sages in the world.

Among the beasts, the white tiger tribe was the most unwilling to submit to the qilin tribe's discipline; although they had only one innate divine sage, they themselves could control the western metal qi and were extremely skilled in combat.

Among the birds of prey, the falcon and hawk tribes were the most unwilling to submit to the phoenix's rule; they were naturally arrogant, the most representative of sexuality among raptor tribes.

They themselves were also extremely swift between heaven and earth, possessing something they were most proud of, so they also did not submit to the phoenix tribe, living their own lives.

This gave the three tribes a great headache, but due to external interference, they could not deal with them.

This is also one of the reasons why the three tribes have not yet erupted in conflict; internal discord prevents them from devoting all their energy to vying for supremacy.

"At last, success!"

Now Qi has successfully refined all the spiritual treasures in his hand; the World-Separating White Jade Tablet and the Water Brilliance Awakening World Drum have been fully perfected, able to exert their true power.

The Innate Twelve-Grade World-Purifying White Lotus has also been successfully refined halfway; the remaining portion needs to be nurtured by the primordial spirit and illuminated by the Dao fruit.

This is a process that cannot be actively accelerated; it requires the spiritual treasure to actively accept and acknowledge.

Qi originally wanted to go find Taiyi and Nüwa, but then thought of Nüwa's wealth and multitude of spiritual treasures, fearing that once the three-tribe war begins, she might not be able to emerge from seclusion.

Taiyi is even harder to emerge from seclusion; the Chaos Bell is an innate supreme treasure, its refinement difficulty so great that merely the time needed for refining would be enough for Qi to successfully nurture the Innate Twelve-Grade World-Purifying White Lotus.

At this moment, Taiyi's realm equals Qi's; both have only just entered the Luo Heavenly Venerable God not long ago, a few hundred yuan hui, and being able to refine three or five spiritual treasure restrictions is already considered extraordinary talent.

It is estimated that one must wait for the Luo Hou Hongjun Great War to end before possible successful refinement; as for the completion of nurturing, it is unknown when that will be.

Qi could only give up, drinking alone in the Pond Center Pavilion, with Bai Ling attending nearby, supplementing fruits and drinks.

As Qi had expected, in Phoenix Perch Mountain, Nüwa felt for the first time that she had too many spiritual treasures.

After countless yuan hui of arduous effort, in the years after ascending to Luo Heavenly Venerable God, she had only refined the Five Qiong Zhi Li Guang Scissors and the Precious Lotus Lamp.

The favorite Innate Five Elements Spirit Pearls to use are still in the nurturing process.

Even wanting to go out for a breath of fresh air felt like wasting time, but seeing the remaining over ten spiritual treasures and the leisurely Fuxi, she felt her mood worsen.

"Elder brother, since you have nothing to do, how about going out for a walk?"

Fuxi knew that Nüwa could not bear seeing his days too comfortable, finding him an eyesore.

With smiles filling his eyes, feeling bored and wanting to go out to play, he thus replied:

"These words are true, a promise is set! I expect Qi has already emerged from seclusion; perfect for a feast—those days will surely be delightful."

"Elder brother, do you really bear to part from your sister, abandoning your own younger sister to go seek pleasure?"

Nüwa could not help but say.

She also did not expect Fuxi to actually intend to abandon her and go to Cloud Dream Marsh to play with Qi.

However, calculating the time, Qi should also have emerged from seclusion; thinking of this, Nüwa truly felt a stir and also wanted to go out to find Qi for entertainment.

Fuxi seemed to see Nüwa's thought, not wanting her to waste effort halfway, he then spoke:

"Sister, why not go together? However, sister possesses many spiritual treasures; given the firmness of her devotion to the Dao, I fear she does not have this idea."

As soon as these words were spoken, Nüwa's face instantly darkened; rather than not wanting to bring her, just say it straight—why provoke her with words?

For the first time, Nüwa began to dislike her own deep blessings; thinking of those remaining spiritual treasures, she feared she would not be able to idle in the days to come.

Nüwa gritted her teeth and said:

"That is natural; please trouble elder brother to convey my regards to Qi."

"Good."

Fuxi stroked his beard and replied with a smile.

This younger sister is hardly reassuring; her talent and blessings are top-notch, yet she loves to play around so much; now that she has finally shown a promising attitude, how could we easily let her give up and waste time?

"Then sister, just cultivate diligently; elder brother will not disturb you."

After speaking, Fuxi's figure vanished from Phoenix Perch Mountain, leaving Nüwa so angry she did not want to stay another moment.

"At last there is a reason to go out; fortunately Nüwa proposed it herself, otherwise it would truly be difficult to leave."

Fuxi sighed.

He dotes on his younger sister too much; it was rare that in the previous great calamity he let her firm her Dao heart and resolve to advance; otherwise he would not know how to persuade her.

"Come, let's go find Qi to discuss formations."

Fuxi laughed as he flew toward the horizon.

Sun Star.

Di Jun also wanted to go out; previously he did not feel this way while on the Sun Star, but now that Taiyi is in seclusion, he occasionally comes out to relax, basically unable to communicate anything.

Having also witnessed the splendor of the wilderness, he naturally felt now rather boring.

Coincidentally, Taiyi at this moment emerged from seclusion for a breath of fresh air; seeing Di Jun's appearance, he opened his mouth to advise:

"Elder brother need not stay on the Sun Star to keep me company; the restrictions within the Chaos Bell are more complex than I imagined, likely there will be no progress in the short term."

"The Sun Star is far from the Wilderness Continent and also poses no danger; elder brother, having become a Luo Heavenly Venerable God and having refined the River Chart and Luo Book, there is no need to linger long on the Sun Star."

"The advancement of Dao practice cannot ultimately be achieved by secluded study; elder brother should still go out more to understand the wilderness, and moreover, I expect Qi should already have emerged from seclusion; elder brother might as well go discuss the Dao."

Seeing Taiyi so reasonable, Di Jun had no reason to refuse.

"Good, elder brother will now go to discuss the Dao with Qi and see how his cultivation achievements are."

Di Jun agreed to Taiyi to go witness Qi's cultivation achievements, discuss the Dao, and see what differences there are after attaining Luo Heavenly Venerable God via different paths of the Taiyi Supreme Deity.

"Good, then elder brother, by the way, please also witness how Qi's means of protecting the Dao are now."

Taiyi suddenly laughed.

Di Jun then stared blankly—how did it suddenly shift from discussing the Dao and observing Qi's cultivation results to testing Qi's Dao-protection means?

The corner of his eye twitched slightly, but since speaking of observing Qi's cultivation results had just been put forth, it was now not easy to refuse.

After a moment, Di Jun's voice then sounded low and heavy:

"Don't worry, elder brother will definitely let you witness Qi's Dao‑protecting techniques."

"Di Jun knew that this beating was unavoidable; this scheming younger brother would certainly not be so kind as to let him go out and enjoy himself alone."

"Qi didn't even know that, having just left seclusion, two idle, bored friends were rushing over, and one of them even had to come specially to take a beating."

"At this moment, Qi had just begun to appreciate the newly choreographed dances of the various tribes of Cloud Dream Marsh; after so many eons, the varieties of dance have become numerous and even more splendid."
