The Legend of the Great Saint: Start from the Sign-in at Mount Tai

Chapter 472 Returning to the Big Dipper, Heavenly Goddess Little Sparrow

In the end, Lu Zhou took Hua Hua away.

They also made an appointment with Hua Yunfei, Zhang Wenchang, and others that they would return to Beidou together three days later.

These few days are reserved for them to take care of some trivial matters on Earth.

They parted ways thereafter.

Before leaving, Lu Zhou also took care of Hua Hua's parents, ensuring they could live a healthy life.

Afterwards, Lu Zhou took Yang Yi and Hua Hua to Shennongjia.

Returning to Earth, he felt that, no matter what, he should pay his respects to the two great human emperors, the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor.

Not to mention, Emperor Yan Shennong was Xu Qiong's master.

He should definitely pay him a visit.

It's a bit of a pity that this time, Lu Zhou only met Emperor Yan Shennong in Shennongjia, but did not meet Emperor Huang Xuanyuan.

According to Emperor Yan, Shennong had already been recuperating in a coffin several years ago.

He was born from the spirit of the Void Emperor's corpse.

Having fought his way through the void, he had battled against more than one supreme being from a forbidden zone. His imperial body was already severely damaged, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as riddled with holes.

After his death, he buried himself in the starry sky. Later, he was fortunate enough to fall to Earth, where his imperial body was nourished and, after communicating with spirits, appeared as the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan.

However, his imperial body still suffered too much damage before his death.

This has led to the fact that the current Yellow Emperor, Xuanyuan, often needs to lie in a coffin to continue nourishing and repairing his body with the magical power of the earth.

Hearing Shennong say this, Lu Zhou also remembered that something similar seemed to have been mentioned in the original work.

Emperor Yan asked Lu Zhou about Xu Qiong's recent situation, and Lu Zhou answered him one by one.

Not only Xu Qiong, but Emperor Yan also asked about how Lao Gai was doing now.

More than ten years ago, they discussed philosophy with each other for many days.

Emperor Yan also knew some of Lao Gai's situation: his lifespan was exhausted and he was also suffering from Daoist injuries.

Old Gai once told Lu Zhou that he had discussed Taoism with the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, and was greatly inspired by Lu Zhou's ability to live out his next life on his own.

"I haven't seen Elder Gai for ten years either. He went to the depths of space, and I don't know exactly where he is now or how he is doing!"

"But I think there shouldn't be any problems!"

Lu Zhou smiled and said this to Emperor Yan.

After he finished speaking, Emperor Yan looked up, gazed at the deep and brilliant night sky, and sighed.

"Fellow Daoist Jiuyou is truly admirable!"

"Looking at the entirety of ancient history, I estimate that few people would dare to make such a decision as he did."

"Sigh! I hope he can take that step!"

"At that time, we will be even more confident in facing the dark turmoil that will most likely erupt again!"

In the cold and dark starry sky, a sickly old man walked alone.

Over the years, he has ventured to the edge of the universe and sat for months on a long-dead, barren planet.

He took a single step, and the world changed dramatically.

It was like a candle flickering in the wind, seemingly unable to move even a foot forward.

His heart stopped beating, and he was like an ordinary corpse, targeted by vultures circling overhead, who intended to swoop down and devour him.

His heart pounded like a drumbeat, and the blood in his veins surged like the roaring Milky Way, brimming with boundless life force, like crashing waves breaking through the clouds, giving new life to a long-dead star.

He once
He once
He continued on his journey.

To contend with the will of Heaven, and to fight against one's own fate!
It was clear that his body was becoming increasingly hunched over, and wisps of death energy occasionally escaped from his body, leaving everything withered in his wake.

If one could observe his primordial spirit, one would find that even his primordial spirit appeared quite dim.

Old Gai's situation, placed within the same timeline, is vastly different from his character in the original work; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as worlds apart.

I still remember when Ye Fan ventured into the human race's trial path, Old Gai appeared wielding two imperial weapons.

He alone intimidated all the heroes and forcefully stopped the wars among the various tribes.

His current state can be largely attributed to Lu Zhou.

Old Gai's condition seemed to be getting worse and worse, as if he would kick the bucket at any moment.

I wonder if he will reappear on the ancient human path many years later?
But if you look closely, you'll notice that Old Gai's eyes seem to be getting brighter and brighter.

Those eyes didn't look like those of a dying person at all.

Earth, Shennongjia!

Lu Zhou, Yang Yi, and Hua Hua stayed here for two days before bidding farewell to Emperor Yan.

The last day was used by Lu Zhou and Yang Yi for a big shopping spree.

Purchase some Earth specialties that are not available through the BeiDou system.

Most of them were gifts that Lu Zhou and Yang Yi planned to take back to give to Yan Ruyu and others.

When the time came, they went to the Jade Emperor Peak of Mount Tai as agreed.

Zhang Wenchang, Li Xiaoman, and others were already waiting here.

Afterwards, after Zhang Wenchang and the others took one last look in the direction of their hometown, Lu Zhou once again summoned the Tianxuan Sword.

The Tianxuan Sword carried them along, piercing the starry sky and speeding towards the direction of the Big Dipper.

Just over a month later, in the cold and dark universe, another light flashed by, like a shooting star.

On Earth, some people were lucky enough to witness this shooting star; they closed their eyes and prayed fervently.
The journey went smoothly without any unexpected incidents, and Lu Zhou and his group returned safely to Beidou.

They landed directly outside the Tai Xuan Gate, and Lu Zhou politely declined Hua Yunfei and the others' invitation to go inside and have a chat.

They parted ways thereafter.

Yang Yi, along with Liu Yiyi and her family, headed to Yaochi.
Near the sacred site of Yaochi, there are also many oases, on which countries and cities have been built.

Back then, Zhang Wuye and the other villagers of Shicun were settled by Yang Yi on an oasis under the jurisdiction of Yaochi.

Liu Yiyi also plans to arrange for her parents to go there as well.

After they left, Lu Zhou took Hua Hua and headed to Tianzhi Village, intending to hand her over to Ye Fan.

'I wonder if Ye Fan has returned from Eternity yet?'

Lu Zhou's secret passage.

It didn't take long for him to arrive at the village of the sky.

Immediately afterward, Qi Luo was shocked when he saw him.

"you"

"You've become a saint?"

This was a subconscious exclamation from Ziro.

The next moment, the expression on his face turned as if it were perfectly natural.

Not only him, but also Black Emperor, Dragon Horse, Yan Yixi, and Little Sparrow, the goddess of the Heavenly Court, and others gathered after learning that Lu Zhou had come to Heavenly Village.
They were all happy for Lu Zhou, but their faces showed an expression of taking it all for granted.

Lu Zhou becoming a saint is perfectly normal, isn't it?
At first, Qi Luo was only slightly shocked that Lu Zhou had become a saint so quickly.

"Wow! Brother Lu, you've only cultivated for thirty-five years, and you've already become a saint!"

"This speed of cultivation is probably unparalleled, even if you look across the entire starry sky, you probably wouldn't find many like it."

"Brother Lu, you're amazing!"

"I want to be as amazing as you someday."

It was the little sparrow fluttering her big, expressive eyes and cheering.

After she finished, she clenched her little fist and waved it in the air, looking like she wanted to be as powerful as Lu Zhou in the future.

More than ten years have passed, and Little Sparrow has grown from a cute little girl who used to crawl and run around with a baby bottle in her mouth all day long, and who would even hit people with the bottle if they angered her, into a beautiful young woman full of youthful energy.

She displayed amazing talent for cultivation from a young age, possessing enviable immortal roots and being connected to the essence of heaven and earth. She was constantly cultivating, somewhat similar to Yuan Gun Gun's situation.

Over the years, she has received personal instruction and spiritual practice from renowned teachers and has used many rare and precious resources.

This meant that even though she was only twelve years old, and despite following the advice of Lu Zhou and others, her breakthroughs had been deliberately suppressed, and she had devoted more energy to constantly honing and accumulating her cultivation foundation.

This also means that she has long since established herself in the Dragon Transformation Realm, and is not far from entering the Immortal Platform Realm.

She had always liked to call Lu Zhou "Brother Lu".

She looked every bit like a little fangirl of Lu Zhou.

This might be related to the fact that she often heard some old people in Tianzhi Village talking about Lu Zhou's various amazing deeds since she was a child.

On his first journey, Lu Zhou decisively defeated the renowned Ji family divine body, which was famous throughout the Eastern Wilderness. Later, in full view of everyone, he shielded the divine body from calamity.

Then he entered the Northern Holy City, gambled away the Yao Guang Stone Workshop, and engaged in a battle of source techniques. In the blink of an eye, he destroyed the source technique family, which was regarded as an honored guest by the major holy lands. His gamble shocked all the heroes.

He ordered all the major stone workshops to break the ancient rule that selecting stones in the top-tier stone garden must involve on-site stone cutting, allowing him to leave with the source stones.

Later, it was rumored that he had entered Purple Mountain and saved Jiang Shenwang, the Jiang family's number one warrior in four thousand years, as well as the Yaochi Saintess from ten thousand years ago.

Furthermore, when he slew the Holy Son outside the Wind Clan, and faced the deadly orders issued against him by the two ancient assassin dynasties, feared by all, he immediately and overwhelmingly slaughtered all the attacking assassins. And, in full view of everyone, he broke with precedent by issuing a counter-bounty and counter-kill order to the two ancient assassin dynasties of Hell and the Mortal Realm, stirring up a storm in all directions.

Then, not long after, he set up another scheme in the Northern Region, capturing or annihilating the Immortal Slaying Alliance and Saint Killing Alliance, which were secretly created by many holy sons and daughters, successors of great sects, and core members of ancient clans, specifically targeting him and the Holy Body Ye Fan.

After that, he forcefully compelled the major sects and ancient families from the Eastern Wilderness, Central State, and Northern Plains in the Northern Region to bow down to him and personally admit defeat!

What excited Xiao Que'er the most each time was Lu Zhou defeating tens of thousands of geniuses from the five regions of the world with a single punch outside the Qishi Mansion.

That scene was not only enshrined in Xiao Que'er's heart.

He was also deified in the hearts of many cultivators who heard about this or witnessed the scene!

Besides these, there are many, many more.

For example, the battle in the Qinling Mountains of Zhongzhou, the battle in Shenling Valley, and the alliance between him and the Great Sage, where they established a covenant among all races.
Little Sparrow listened to all of these things, and she clenched her little fists excitedly, making her big, expressive eyes sparkle like little stars!
Before she knew it, Lu Zhou had become her idol.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she's now a die-hard fan of Lu Zhou.

If there are still people like Lu Zhou who understand the original plot, after seeing the current Little Sparrow...

Then they will find that Ye Fan is no longer as appealing to Xiao Que'er.

I still remember a few years ago, when Lu Zhou finally accepted Qi Luo and Ye Fan's invitation and agreed to take on the title of Honorary Leader of the Heavenly Court and come with them to stroll around the Heavenly Village.

Upon first seeing Lu Zhou, Xiao Que'er made a startling statement in front of everyone, shouting something outrageous.

"Brother Lu, you have to wait for me!"

"When I grow up, I want to marry you!"

In that instant, the entire village of Heaven fell silent, as if the air itself had been completely frozen.

Looking back now, I can only imagine how interesting the expressions on the faces of those present must have been.

Looking at the little girl, Xiao Que'er, Lu Zhou was momentarily at a loss.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lu Zhou still hadn't seen Ye Fan appear, so he asked.

Where are the leaves?

"Haven't they come back yet?"

Zi Yan shook her head and spoke.

"not yet!"

Considering the time frame, this is normal.

After all, Ye Fan had only been in the Eternal Starfield for less than two years.

It seems that his trip this time is unlikely to be like the one in the original story, where he encountered some ridiculous and troublesome things in the Eternal Starfield, because of what Lu Zhou did in Eternal a few years ago, plus the fact that Dao Yi was with him.

But along the way, just the various ancient imitations, following in the footsteps of the ancients, and paying homage to their relics must have taken up a lot of his time.

Lu Zhou thought for a moment, then spoke.

"Perhaps he won't be back for a while longer."

He wasn't worried at all that Ye Fan might have an accident.

Even if the Immortal Emperor were to die, he believed that Emperor Ye would still be alive and kicking.

"By the way, where did you abduct this child from?"

"Could it be your illegitimate child?"

"You don't look like me at all!"

"Huh? This little one."

It was Black King who spoke, and as it spoke, its big, bronze-bell-sized dog eyes widened to look like two small suns.

It wasn't just it that noticed Hua Hua being led by Lu Zhou.

Others had noticed it long ago as well.

Especially Ziro.

Ever since Lu Zhou brought Hua Hua to Tian Zhi Village, that old codger Qi Luo's eyes have been gleaming as he stares at Hua Hua.

He recognized Hua Hua's extraordinary qualities.

I was greatly shocked, greatly surprised, and delighted.
His greatest wish in life was to promote the Heavenly Court and restore its glory from ancient times.

They even aspired to rival the ancient Heavenly Court of the mythological era.

He once boasted that he would gather the strongest physiques in the world and bring them to the Heavenly Court.

As soon as the Black Emperor spoke, everyone looked at Lu Zhou.

Their eyes kept shifting back and forth between Lu Zhou and Hua Hua.

"Get lost, you bastard!"

"What illegitimate child?"

"Dogs bark!"

Lu Zhou laughed and cursed, then kicked Black Emperor so hard he fell flat on his face.

Black Emperor rolled over and got up, baring his teeth and instinctively wanting to bite Lu Zhou.

The result was that he was suppressed by Lu Zhou with just one finger once again.

Over the years, it has bitten everything in sight, leaving its teeth marks even on Emperor Ye and Duan De's buttocks.

But he didn't get any advantage from Lu Zhou.

This hurt it deeply, and it was filled with resentment.

He once vowed that one day he would make Lu Zhou pay!
At this moment, Lu Zhou pulled Hua Hua forward, pointed at Qi Luo and the others one by one, and smiled at Hua Hua.

"Come here, Huahua, you should call that person 'Uncle-Master,' and this one is also 'Uncle-Master.' Um... you can call that one 'Grandpa.'"

Hua Hua has been quick-witted since she was little and has never been shy around strangers.

He appeared very well-behaved, innocent, and harmless as he spoke with Lu Zhou.

One after another, he spat out terms like "elder brother," "grandfather," and "pretty sister."

After finishing, Lu Zhou then addressed Qi Luo and the others.

"His name is Huahua, and he's the one I brought from Earth this time!"

"I have a master-disciple relationship with Ye Zi!"

"So I brought him here, intending to give him to Ye Zi."

"I didn't expect Ye Zi to still be here!"

"But it doesn't matter anyway. Ye Zi is used to being a hands-off teacher. In his words, he doesn't want his disciples to be confined to his path!"

"I think you've all noticed that Hua Hua is a very promising child, and he's sure to become another great general in our Heavenly Court in the future!"

"I'm entrusting him to you. Please take care of Huahua for Yezi for now."

Lu Zhou said the last sentence to Qi Luo.

Ziro, of course, had no objection to this.

After realizing that Hua Hua was not simple, he couldn't be happier.

"Hahaha"

“good good”

He laughed heartily, praising the offer repeatedly, and readily agreed to the task.

After he finished, he said something.

"Rest assured, you can entrust him to us. We will definitely nurture him into a talent. I believe that in the future, he will become as famous as you and Ye Fan."

Hearing him say that, and recalling the character Hua Hua from the original novel, a somewhat inexplicable smile instantly appeared on Lu Zhou's face.

Lu was actually quite looking forward to seeing that playboy Buddha.

And this certainly wouldn't have been possible without the 'tutelage' of Black Emperor, Dragon Horse, and Qi Luo, among others.

After handing Hua Hua over to Qi Luo and the others, Lu Zhou didn't linger in Tianzhi Village for long.

After catching up with them for a while, he left Tianzhi Village and flew back to Yaochi Holy Land under the somewhat reluctant gazes of Xiaonannan and Xiaoqueer.

For the next period of time, Lu Zhou did nothing but spend all his time traveling to various places to be with his Daoist partners.

Lu Zhou's two major followers, the Divine Knight Kane and the Golden-Winged Roc King, have both embarked on the human race's trial path.

They set off separately.

Lu Zhou's Daoist companions also knew that after returning as a saint, Lu Zhou was preparing to embark on the human race's trial path.

This was a plan that Lu Zhou had made long ago.

And now that Lu Zhou has left, it's unclear when he'll return.

Therefore, they have cherished the time Lu Zhou has spent with them during this period.

The various obsessions and entanglements involved are simply beyond description.

Even Lu Zhou exclaimed, "Wow, that's amazing!"
