Primordial: From a grain of soil to the ancestor of all paths

If Hongjun and his group choose to support a certain force and openly wage war against the demon race in order to eliminate the demon race, then even if Nuwa still has some inner conflict, she will not say much.

Just like when Taiqing resurrected Dongwanggong and allowed him to rebuild the Celestial Court to wage the second war between the demons and immortals.

However, Hongjun and the others chose to secretly manipulate the thoughts of Dijun and Taiyi, causing the two of them to carry out the massacre of humans and the forging of the Witch-Slaying Sword.

That was something Nuwa simply couldn't accept!

In a sense, this could be considered a good thing for Nuwa.

At least she no longer has to worry about her stance; she only needs to fully support the alliance between the human and demon races.

Although Nuwa was somewhat resentful that Hongjun had schemed against her, causing her to become a Heavenly Saint instead of the one who should have been the representative of humanity, she did not make up her mind to stand on the opposite side of Heaven.

Now look what's happened! Hongjun and the others' actions have directly pushed her to the opposite side!
“Now you are no longer in the same camp as the other Heavenly Saints, but as a Heavenly Saint, you will still be subject to the constraints of the Heavenly Dao.” At this moment, Fuxi asked Nuwa with some concern, “Who knows what they might do to you in the future.”

"What are your plans next?"

“Brother, you don’t need to worry too much.” Nuwa replied without much concern, “No matter what, I will become a saint by creating humans and enjoy the blessings of humanity!”

"As long as Hongjun and the others do not want to suffer the backlash of the human destiny, they will not really do anything to me."

"But I must also become stronger."

"I plan to go to Tianyuan Mountain later to ask Fellow Daoist Taichu for some guidance."

"It's good that you have your own ideas." Hearing Nuwa's words, Fuxi breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "Speaking of which, this time we owe a lot to Taichu."

"Otherwise, even with the true form of Pangu from the Wu Clan and the will of Pangu from Fellow Daoist Qinglian, they still wouldn't be able to truly contend with Hongjun this time!"

"Moreover, over the years, Tai Chu has always had some special methods and plans."

"Perhaps he really does have a way to free you from the control of Heaven?"

As he spoke, Fuxi looked towards Tianyan not far away with a hopeful gaze.

Tianyan is Taichu's younger sister, and this time she has shown strength second only to him.

Perhaps she also has some thoughts on the fact that Nuwa is still bound by the laws of Heaven.

"Whether I can help Fellow Daoist Nuwa break free from the control of the Heavenly Dao, I can't say for sure right now." Tianyan naturally understood Fuxi's thoughts and said with a charming smile, "But since Fellow Daoist Nuwa wants to see my brother, then come with me to Tianyuan Mountain."

"If you don't mind, Fuxi, Tongtian, and Styx, you three fellow Daoists are also welcome to come along."

"Well then, I'll take my leave of you!" Nuwa nodded in response.

"Then we won't stand on ceremony!" Fuxi, Tongtian, and Styx exchanged glances and responded with a hint of anticipation.

They did indeed want to have another discussion with Taichu and Tianyan, as well as to discuss future plans.

The Heavenly Court, the Lingxiao Palace!
"Humph!"

"That Hongjun and Taiqing have gone so far as to manipulate our minds and try to make us kill each other with the human race. They are truly despicable!"

"From this day forward, my demon race will fight to the death with the Heavenly Dao!"

"If it weren't for our current lack of strength, we would definitely not let Hongjun and the others get away with it!"

"This time, we also owe a great deal to the assistance of Tai Chu, Tian Yan, Qing Lian, and the Underworld; otherwise..."

"..."

Upon returning here, Di Jun and Tai Yi were still furious, but at the same time, they were very grateful for Tai Chu and the others' help.

"In the end, it's still because our current strength is insufficient!" After calming down a bit, Di Jun sighed deeply and said, "If you, my second brother, could master the three thousand laws of the Great Dao and prove the Dao with force to become a Primordial Golden Immortal, even if you still can't compare to those in the Dao Integration Realm, with the support of our demon race's three Primordial-level formations, we would never have been bullied by the Heavenly Dao like this time!"

"If I could become a saint of humanity, or even the spokesperson for humanity, how could Heaven dare to treat us like this?"

Di Jun was very grateful for Tai Chu and the others' help this time, but upon closer reflection, wasn't this also a disgrace to them?

If the demon race were strong enough, why would they need the help of Tai Chu and his group?
In fact, they could never have been so easily outmaneuvered by the Heavenly Dao.

“Brother, you’re right!” Taiyi nodded solemnly, “In the primordial world, strength reigns supreme!”

"The reason why our demon race faces so many obstacles is because we are strong, but not strong enough!"

"However..." Taiyi's tone became somewhat conflicted: "With the number of Great Dao Laws I currently control, no matter how hard I try, it would take dozens of Yuanhui to possibly prove myself as a Primordial Golden Immortal through force!"

"Brother, although you can gain the opportunity to become a saint of humanity by promoting the alliance between the human and demon races, it is impossible to succeed in a short period of time!"

"..." Upon hearing this, Di Jun's expression grew increasingly solemn.

That's right, but even if they know where the problem lies now, what can they do?
Whether it's Taiyi's path of proving the Dao through force or Dijun's path to becoming a saint of humanity, both require time.

The key issue is that what the demon race lacks right now is time!
"Alas!" Di Jun sighed and said, "No matter what, after this battle, the Heavenly Dao side should not cause any major disturbances in the short term."

"We also have three fellow Daoists, Tai Chu, Tian Yan, and Qing Lian, as well as the assistance of the Sage Nuwa and the Earth Dao."

"Even if Hongjun and the others really want to continue targeting us, it will definitely not be an easy task."

"Give us enough time, and we will definitely be able to gain enough strength to make Hongjun and the others dare not attack us easily again!"

"Furthermore, before the human and demon races become a complete whole, giving me the opportunity to become a saint of humanity, I plan to first try to master my inherited Great Dao: the Great Dao of the Emperor, and then prove my Dao with a single law!" After some thought, Di Jun put forward his new idea: "Although a Primordial Golden Immortal under a single law will not be much stronger than a Heavenly Dao Saint in terms of combat power."

"At least it will allow me to attain enlightenment faster!"

"After I attain the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, I can still try to comprehend and control more Great Dao laws, and become a Saint of Humanity, thereby further enhancing my own strength!"

"Yes, it seems to be the best method at the moment!" Taiyi nodded in agreement after hearing Dijun's words.

To be honest, if he had known that the demon race would come to this point, he probably wouldn't have chosen the path of mastering the three thousand laws and proving the Dao through force so early on.

Instead, he will follow the path of proving his Dao through a single law, like Di Jun is now, and then gradually master more laws.

If that were the case, perhaps he would have already succeeded in attaining the Primordial Dao?
Of course, Taiyi's current situation isn't actually that bad. He has mastered more than two thousand Great Dao Laws and already possesses Saint-level combat power.

When he finally succeeds in becoming a Primordial Golden Immortal through force, along with the Primordial Treasure "Chaos Bell" and the three Primordial-level formations of the demon race, he might even possess the combat power to contend with a Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal (Dao Integration) realm.

Tianyuan Mountain!
Central Hall!

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Nuwa, Fellow Daoist Fuxi, Fellow Daoist Tongtian, and Fellow Daoist Styx!"

Tai Chu and Qing Lian, who had already returned here, bowed to Nuwa, Fuxi, Tongtian, and Styx, who had been brought here by Tianyan to pay their respects.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Taichu, and Fellow Daoist Qinglian!"

Nuwa, Fuxi, Tongtian, and the Styx all returned the gifts.

"Since we've all gathered here, why don't we start by discussing the Dao?" After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Tai Chu suggested with a light laugh.

"We couldn't be happier!"

Nuwa, Fuxi, Tongtian, and Styx all brightened up and nodded in agreement.

After all, in terms of discussing the Dao, even if they were all combined, they would not be as good as Tai Chu, Qing Lian, and Tian Yan.

They had a premonition that they would gain many new insights after this discussion!

How could they possibly refuse?

then!

Over the next tens of thousands of years, Taichu, Qinglian, Tianyan, as well as Nuwa, Fuxi, Tongtian, and Minghe took turns expounding their own Dao and verifying their own Dao while listening to others preach.

"Ha ha!"

"Thank you all for your lectures!"

"We have all benefited greatly from this discussion!"

"..."

After the discussion concluded, Nuwa, Fuxi, Tongtian, and Styx all sincerely expressed their gratitude to Taichu, Qinglian, and Tianyan.

These tens of thousands of years of philosophical discussions are far more valuable than their hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of years of arduous cultivation!

They are confident that they can significantly improve their strength by going back into seclusion once!
It is precisely for this reason that Nuwa, Fuxi, Tongtian, and Styx are all very grateful to Taichu, Qinglian, and Tianyan.

"Fellow Daoists, there's no need for such formalities!"

"We also gained something from this discussion!"

"We also hope that you can join us in the future to enter the Primordial Chaos Realm, and even higher realms!"

Tai Chu, Tian Yan, and Qing Lian all shook their heads indifferently.

As the saying goes, "stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade," and "the three thousand great paths lead to the same destination."

While it may seem that Nuwa and her three companions gained a great advantage in this debate, the three members of the Primordial Era also benefited considerably.

Given the current situation, Nuwa and her three companions are allies of the three from the Primordial Beginning. The stronger they become, the better it will be for the three from the Primordial Beginning.

When the three of them are able to enter the Primordial Chaos Realm or even higher in the future, they hope that others will stand at a similar level to them.

Otherwise, they will only become more and more lonely in the future!
“Fellow Daoist Taichu, Fellow Daoist Qinglian, Fellow Daoist Tianyan, actually, I have come here this time to ask you something.” Nuwa understood Taichu and the others’ thoughts, kept her gratitude to them in her heart, and then got down to business: “After the incident of the Slaughtering Witch Sword tens of thousands of years ago, it is impossible for me to stand on the same side as Hongjun and the others.”

"However, as a sage of the Heavenly Dao, I will inevitably be subject to the constraints of the Heavenly Dao."

"Even if there is human fortune, and Hongjun and the others will not easily do anything to me, this is not a long-term solution."

"I cannot think of a way to break free from the control of the Heavenly Dao, so I can only try to seek help from the three of you."

"If the three of you can help me remove this restriction, I, Nuwa, will repay this kindness tenfold in the future!"

"I beg the three of you to lend a helping hand!" Fuxi hurriedly said to the three of them, promising, "If we succeed, I, Fuxi, will repay you with all my might in the future!"

"Of course, even if we cannot resolve this, my brother and I will certainly not blame the three of you!"

The Tongtian River has little connection with Nuwa, so it doesn't make any promises like Fuxi did, but they all looked at Taichu and the other two with some anticipation.

If Nuwa can truly break free from the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao with the help of the three from the beginning, then this would definitely be a good thing for the two of them!
“You two need not do this. If we can do it, we will certainly do our best!” Tai Chu said.

“Perhaps we could try to use my brother’s Pangu will to strip the Heavenly Dao Saint’s Dao Fruit from your body within the Pangu Palace, and then use the Chaos Essence Spring in our hands to repair your Great Dao injury.” Qinglian pondered for a while and proposed an idea: “This is how the Primordial Purple Qi in Hongyun and Tongtian’s bodies was stripped out before.”

"The difficulty of separating the Primordial Purple Qi from the Sage's Dao Fruit is completely different."

"At this point, I'm no more than 20% confident that it will succeed!"

"So don't have too high hopes for this."

“Even if the hope is small, it’s worth a try.” Before Nuwa could respond, Tianyan said, “Furthermore, I think Fellow Daoist Nuwa, you should also try to comprehend and master more of the Great Dao Laws.”

"As long as you have enough Great Dao Laws under your control, you should be able to suppress your Heavenly Dao Saint Dao Fruit to a certain extent!"

“My Great Millstone of Annihilation might increase the chances of Qinglian using the Pangu Palace and Pangu’s will to strip the Saintly Dao Fruit from your body.” Tai Chu thought for a moment and added, “But I’m not sure how high the success rate will be.”

"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoists!" Nuwa and Fuxi were not too disappointed. Instead, they sincerely thanked the three of them, saying, "No matter the outcome, we siblings will be eternally grateful for your help!"

“I’ve already said, fellow Daoists, there’s no need for this!” Tai Chu shook his head and said, “Helping you is actually helping us as well.”

"There's no time like the present, why don't we go to the Pangu Palace on Buzhou Mountain right now!" Qinglian said with a hint of eagerness.

If it were truly possible to help Nuwa remove the Sage's Dao Fruit from her body, it would definitely be a blow to the Heavenly Dao!
That's exactly what Qinglian wanted to see!
"Well then, we'll have to rely on you three!" Nuwa said without any pretense, her eyes filled with anticipation as she spoke with Fuxi.

Tongtian and the Styx River also held high expectations for this! (End of Chapter)
