One person above Qing Huang Ting

Chapter 925 The materials for mending the heavens are ready.

Hu Xiuwu's consideration of giving the "Lingji Leiyin" to the Goddess Nuwa was based on profound reasoning.

The Goddess Nuwa wields the Spirit Serpent Staff, possesses the Five Spirit Plate with all five spirit pearls, and is proficient in all five spirit immortal arts, as well as the wonders of creation.

Although due to the world's underlying narrative setting, neither she nor the three emperors in the Legend of Sword and Fairy world comprehended the Dao Fruit, Nuwa possessed the physique and immortal power of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Before Nuwa fully comprehended her own Dao Fruit, the Dao Fruit of Power contained in the [Coffin Thunder Sound] was simple and direct, yet infinitely powerful, and it was not picky about the user. As long as the realm was reached, anyone could use it, and it could greatly enhance Nuwa's combat power.

Nuwa herself was well aware of this matter, so Hu Xiuwu couldn't help but ask her again to confirm her resolve.

Nuwa smiled slightly: "They are just external possessions. If they can save this world, what is there for me to be reluctant to give up?"

Hu Xiuwu said with heartfelt submission, "Goddess Nuwa, you are infinitely compassionate."

Nuwa shook her head: "I also have my own selfish motives. Being able to actually carry out such an operation would be the greatest help to me."

During the battle with the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor revealed the truth of the world: the people of the Legend of Sword and Fairy world had already accepted that they were newly born beings from a fantasy world.

Nuwa also knew that the dramatic events in her memory of sealing the rift in the divine realm and suppressing the five innate demon gods only existed in her memory. Nuwa had never actually carried out such an operation herself.

Being able to actually do it and experience it firsthand would also be of great benefit to her spiritual practice.

Judging by actions, not intentions, it is an indisputable fact that Goddess Nuwa made enormous sacrifices for the Three Realms in the Dark Myth.

Hu Xiuwu was moved by Nuwa's kindness and no longer needed to ascertain her resolve; asking her repeatedly would only be an insult to her.

Instead, he pondered where to find the remaining materials. The fact that Goddess Nuwa used the [Coffin Thunder Sound] as a pillar supporting the sky gave Hu Xiuwu an idea.

Hu Xiuwu lowered his head, his gaze piercing through several layers of celestial barriers and across the vast expanse of clouds.

Finally, the focus fell on Subhuti and his group, who had escaped the Great Luo Battlefield, left the Thirty-Three Heavens through the Heavenly Gate, and returned to the mortal realm, thus escaping unscathed. More precisely, the focus fell on Zhen Yuanzi, or rather, on Zhen Yuanzi's sleeve.

A gaze carries weight, and Ronaldo's weight is even heavier.

When the Great Luo Golden Immortal's gaze fell upon Zhen Yuanzi, Zhen Yuanzi felt the hairs on his back stand up and his brow burn, as if his primordial spirit had left his physical body and was facing the great sun.

Even though he had cultivated to the point where he was impervious to heat and cold, and immune to fire and water, Zhen Yuanzi still felt his mouth go dry and his back slightly damp under this undisguised gaze.

'Is this the power of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the foremost in slaughter?'

Zhen Yuanzi followed the direction of the gaze and bowed slightly, saying, "Greetings, Heavenly Venerable."

He was not familiar with Hu Xiuwu, and had never even met Hu Xiuwu before receiving the ordination letter from him.

Therefore, in terms of address and actions, Zhen Yuanzi treated Hu Xiuwu with the utmost respect and courtesy.

“Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi, I need the celestial beings in your hidden universe.”

Hu Xiuwu's voice rang clearly in Zhen Yuanzi's ears, as if he were not in the heavens, or in a place that could not be described by mere distance, but right beside Zhen Yuanzi.

Zhen Yuanzi was filled with trepidation: "If the Heavenly Venerable requires it, I will take it out."

After the Heavenly Emperor detonated his Dao Fruit and broke free from his control, the group of celestial prisoners began to stir. Within the small grotto-heaven in his sleeve, spiritual energy surged and converged into an invisible river that flowed into the seal of the [Lotus Lantern].

The cave was in a state of unease, oppressive and heavy-hearted. It was as if a single match or spark could set the entire cave ablaze.

If it were a one-on-one fight, or even a fight against ten, Zhen Yuanzi could easily win. He was the ancestor of earth immortals who easily suppressed the four travelers to the west and the white dragon horse on the journey to the West and took them into his sleeve.

But what he now held in his sleeve was the remaining power of the entire Heavenly Court, including the Antarctic Longevity Emperor, one of the Four Emperors, and the Queen Mother of the West from Kunlun Immortal Realm. Zhen Yuanzi was not afraid of the Four Emperors, nor was he afraid of the Queen Mother of the West.

But when they came together, along with the celestial beings of Heaven and the fairies of Kunlun, they were able to join forces.

When all the gods gather and all the rivers flow into the sea, that immense power is enough to change the world and cannot be suppressed by Zhen Yuanzi.

If he had that power, he wouldn't just be the ancestor of earth immortals, and Wuzhuang Temple wouldn't be an unknown Taoist temple, but rather the second sacred mountain in the mortal world.

The celestial beings of Heaven are currently conserving their strength and have not yet provoked a battle to tear apart the false veil of balance. This is partly due to the sacrifice of Erlang Shen Yang Jian and partly due to the suppression of the five-colored mysterious light of the Lotus Lantern.

Secondly, the celestial beings and gods of Heaven dared not leave Zhen Yuanzi's small grotto for the time being.

In case they manage to escape Zhen Yuanzi's sleeve, they might run into Hu Xiuwu or the Jade Emperor.

What awaits them is not an optimistic situation.

Zhen Yuanzi was already troubled by the volcano hidden in his sleeve that might erupt at any moment, and now that Hu Xiuwu was asking him for it, he couldn't be happier:

"I have long been unable to suppress these gods of the Heavenly Court. If the Heavenly Venerable requires it, I will release them now."

Hu Xiuwu's voice rang out again:

"No need. Since the Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi agrees, I will take them out now."

Before Zhen Yuanzi could understand the meaning behind Hu Xiuwu's words, he first noticed that a very thin sword mark had suddenly appeared in the small cavern within his sleeve.

The sword mark began to expand the moment it appeared, like an open door.

The Spring Nourishing Divine Sword is unimpeded, capable of breaking through all kinds of seals and barriers, and freely traversing the six realms.

An ordinary-looking hand reached into the cave from the open doorway.

The hand didn't display any extraordinary abilities, but the moment it appeared, it affected the quality and flow of spiritual energy within the cave.

The gods of the Heavenly Court, sealed by the five-colored mysterious light, were drawn by the nameless suction force in the palm of that hand, transforming into dozens of long serpentine streams that spiraled and flew toward the palm of that hand.

The various kinds of Qi from the gods in Heaven eventually gathered in their palms, without a single strand being pulled out of their five fingers, and gathered in their palms into a Qi ball that grew heavier and heavier.

The sphere contains a mixture of colors, a blend of seven hues, resembling the deep sea or the aurora borealis, where all colors converge and are refined into a single color.

Its colors are deep and its weight is astonishing.

Then, the hand took away the Qi sphere formed by the gods of Heaven. Before leaving the cave, it severed the connection between Yang Jian and the Lotus Lantern with a sword, freeing Yang Jian from his state of sacrifice.

Yang Jian, whose connection to the Lotus Lantern was severed, looked withered and emaciated, like a skinned skeleton. His hair was dry and white, and the third eyelid between his eyebrows had shrunk and become a scar. He had lost all of the extraordinary and handsome demeanor of the Jade-Faced True Lord he once was.

However, as long as Yang Jian is no longer drained of his essence by the Lotus Lantern, with his cultivation of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, this injury will eventually heal.

Hu Xiuwu informed Zhen Yuanzi that it wasn't that he couldn't unlock Zhen Yuanzi's hidden treasure, but rather that "taking without asking is theft," and he wanted to politely take the item.

Even so, Hu Xiuwu still terrified Zhen Yuanzi, giving him a tremendous shock.

Zhen Yuanzi's most prized supernatural power, one of his greatest reliance, was easily broken through by Hu Xiuwu, without him even making any effective response.

If Hu Xiuwu hadn't given him advance notice, he wouldn't have realized that Hu Xiuwu's sword had already penetrated into the cave.

This is a Great Luo Golden Immortal!
