Guarding the ancient human race for a thousand years, yet ridiculed by the world.

Chapter 12 The Age of Saints Arrives

The children spat and urinated on the sculpture, but Mengmeng protected it desperately, which angered them.

Although Mengmeng is only three or four years old, she can clearly see the face of the sculpture.

Isn't this Daddy?

These people are awful!

That's terrible!

They actually spat and urinated on my father's sculpture!

How could Mengmeng let them run rampant?

Therefore, he clung tightly to the sculpture.

"Damn it! This guy's one of the Holy King's men, let's attack!"

A group of children rushed over and started tearing at Mengmeng.

Mengmeng cried loudly, but still desperately tried to protect the sculpture.

This is her father's sculpture; she won't let these people insult it.

"stop!"

At this moment, Suirenshi arrived just in time and scolded the children.

The children made faces at Suirenshi, then ran away laughing.

"Child, are you alright?"

Suirenshi asked.

"Waaaaah—"

Mengmeng burst into tears.

Suirenshi comforted her and then asked, "Whose child are you? Where are your parents?"

Mengmeng sobbed, "On Saint King Peak."

Upon hearing this, Suirenshi was taken aback and asked, "Child, you said you live on Saint King Peak?"

Mengmeng nodded.

Suirenshi looked closely at the child and was surprised to find that he bore a striking resemblance to the sage king.

Could he be the offspring of a sage ruler?

Suirenshi immediately picked up Mengmeng and ran towards Shengjun Peak.

Soon they arrived at the thatched hut atop the cliff.

Suirenshi wanted to go in, but was subtly forced back by a mysterious Daoist aura.

"Is the Holy Emperor in seclusion?"

Left with no other choice, Suirenshi had to take Mengmeng back to the human tribe.

How can a child that young survive in the mountains?

……

Upon returning to the tribe, Suiren instructed his wife and children not to reveal Mengmeng's identity.

The people in the tribe hate Lin Xuan now and spit on him every day. If they knew that this little girl was the Holy King's child, the consequences would be unpredictable.

……

Mengmeng stayed in the human tribe.

However, he fights with those children every day.

……

On this day, Taiqing came to the human race again.

Looking at the devout faces of the human race and the statues and holy images of himself erected everywhere, Taiqing was very satisfied.

"The opportunity has arrived."

Taiqing smiled faintly, then gathered the people and announced:

"Now, I, Taiqing, feel the weakness of the human race, therefore I preach to the human race and establish the Human Religion, using the Taiji Diagram to suppress the human race's destiny. I am the master of the Human Religion!"

boom--

In an instant, thunderous sounds echoed across the Great Dao, purple energy swept eastward for billions of miles, heavenly flowers rained down, golden lotuses sprang from the earth, and immeasurable merits descended from the heavens.

Various strange phenomena appeared in the sky, and all living beings knelt in worship!

The humans were even more excited and cheered.

"As expected, we were right! The Immortal Master Taiqing is a sage!"

"Greetings, Immortal Master! Greetings, Sage!"

People knelt and worshipped the saint with devotion.

When Taiqing attained sainthood, the various powerful beings had different thoughts.

At Kunlun Mountain, inside the Jade Void Palace, Yuanshi glanced in the direction of the human race and said, "My elder brother has attained enlightenment? I must also speed things up..."

Tongtian, the monk of Biyou Palace on Jin'ao Island, murmured, "I, Tongtian, should also establish a religion."

……

Several months later, a clear sound was heard echoing from the Kunlun Mountains across the vast wilderness.

"I, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, expounded the doctrines of the Xuanmen School, used the Pangu Banner to suppress the Qi and establish the teachings."

Another voice came from Jin'ao Island.

However, he was the Tongtian Sect Leader.

"I am Tongtian. Now, I teach all without discrimination, and all living beings have a glimmer of hope. Therefore, I established the Jie Sect and used the Four Swords of Zhuxian and the array diagram to suppress the fate of the world."

Following this, in the Western Lands, Cundi and Jieti made forty-eight great vows and established the Western Religion.

Thus, the age of sages arrived.

……

Human tribe.

"Sage, please teach us the method to break through!"

"Sage, we have all reached a bottleneck, which has lasted for a hundred years. Please guide us!"

Taiqing stood on a futon in the clouds, his face calm and serene.

He didn't speak.

Xuan Du, who was standing beside him, spoke up.

"How dare you! You dare to shout at a sage?"

boom--

A terrifying pressure from the Great Luo instantly swept over, causing people to tremble.

Xuandu has been following Taiqing for over a hundred years, and he has broken through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

"See that? I used to be just like you, merely a Qi Refiner! But now, I'm a Great Luo Golden Immortal!"

"As long as you honestly cultivate according to the Taiqing Immortal Method, and worship the Taiqing Sage and offer incense every day, you will all reach my level!"

Little did Xuandu know that his ability to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in a hundred years was entirely due to the foundation he had built with the Sage King's Method.

People were intimidated by the intimidation and dared not ask any more questions.

Taiqing sneered inwardly: "A bunch of ignorant humans! With your aptitude, you think you can obtain my true Taiqing Immortal Techniques?"

Now that he has become a saint, why would he care about the human race?

This is a clear case of discarding someone after they've served their purpose, and dismantling a bridge after they've been used.

It's just that people are ignorant and can't see the true nature of things.

Then, Taiqing told Xuandu to stay behind, and he left on his own.

The reason for leaving Xuandu behind was naturally to monitor the human race.

……

People practiced the Taiqing Immortal Technique even more diligently.

The Taiqing Temple was rebuilt and worshipped daily.

Meanwhile, more and more humans are frantically pouring into the outside world.

After Taiqing became a saint, they believed his words even more deeply.

More and more people are practicing the Taiqing Immortal Method, but the human race of the Suiren clan continues to adhere to the Sage Ruler Method.

Demon race, Heavenly Court.

"Qinyuan, how are things on the human side?"

Di Jun sat on the throne, with Donghuang Taiyi beside him, his gaze fixed on Qin Yuan below.

"Your Majesty, the number of humans emerging from the human tribes has now reached tens of billions. Do you think we should begin harvesting them now?"

Qin Yuan knelt in the main hall and said respectfully.

Di Jun didn't speak, but glanced at the sky.

There, a gigantic sword floats in mid-air, constantly absorbing the souls, blood essence, and resentment of the dead...

After a moment of contemplation, Di Jun finally spoke:

"No rush! Continue to lure humans out! Wait until the seal is lifted! Or until the human population reaches hundreds of billions!"

"Qin Yuan! You continue to monitor the human race!"

"Yes, Your Majesty! I, the Imperial Censor, shall withdraw!"

……

Meanwhile, Houtu, as if her consciousness were clouded, wandered across the primordial land.

She didn't know how much time had passed before she arrived at the edge of the Blood Sea.

Above the sea of ​​blood, countless wronged souls and vengeful ghosts roared, adrift and homeless...

Upon seeing this, Houtu's delicate body trembled violently.

"My destiny, my destiny lies here..."

Houtu, as if blessed with good fortune, sat down on the shore of the Blood Sea.

For a moment, Houtu also fell into a state of enlightenment!

Glug glug...

The churning sea of ​​blood bubbled up like boiling water.

whoosh-

A blood-red figure appeared, with the Yuan Tu and A Bi swords swirling above its head!

"Hmm? Isn't this Houtu, one of the Twelve Ancestral Witches? What's she doing in my Blood Sea?"

Ancestor Styx frowned slightly!

However, he did not interfere with Houtu.

"Ancestral Witch, it's fine if you don't provoke my Styx River, but if you dare to lay a finger on my Blood Sea, I will fight you to the death."

Having said that, the Styx plunged into the sea of ​​blood and disappeared.
