Honghuang Taihuang

Chapter 87 Reunion with Qingnu and Taotie

It was precisely because of the guidance of the Great Snow Mountain Dragon Vein that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the far west was several times more concentrated than when Taiwei descended last time.

At this time, the ancestral dragon vein of the Great Snow Mountain, like countless roots, has completely taken root in the vast and boundless underground of the far west.

In the far west, Qing Nu's combat power is comparable to that of a powerful being at the Taiyi realm. Such strength is already enough to protect the Great Snow Mountain Origin in the current prehistoric world.

Having arrived in the far west, Taiwei naturally went to the Great Snow Mountain first. As soon as he entered the spiritual energy shroud of the Great Snow Mountain, amidst the countless ice and snow, an ice crystal bridge descended from the mountainside and landed in front of Taiwei.

Looking at the magical treasure-level covered bridge in front of him, Taiwei smiled. He knew that with Nuwa's wealth, she would surely give Qingnu many treasures. Using a magical treasure to welcome guests was enough to show how wealthy Qingnu was.

Stepping onto the covered bridge, Taiwei's surroundings shifted, and the journey there was completed in just a few breaths. At the mountainside of the Great Snow Mountain, the covered bridge disappeared, and Taiwei's figure slowly floated down, standing in the center of a plaza covered with white jade.

To Taiwei's left, icy springs surged, exuding a chilling aura; to its right, magnificent mountains shimmered with neon lights. Directly in front of Taiwei, the beautiful Qingnu, dressed in white with white hair and a delicate face, smiled as she looked at Taiwei and bowed gracefully to the newly arrived Taiwei.

"Qing Nu greets her senior master."

"Uncle-Master?" Taiwei looked at Qingnu, shook his head and smiled. Given his relationship with Nuwa, it wasn't wrong for Qingnu to call him Uncle-Master. However, Qingnu didn't know that Taiwei was born a little later than Fuxi and Nuwa.

"You've reached the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm. It seems you've cultivated diligently under Nuwa's tutelage all these years. Very good."

Taiwei looked at Qingnu in front of him and praised her, saying, "Of the four of us—Yang Mei, Fuxi, Nuwa, and Taiwei—only Nuwa has taken on a personal disciple."

As Nuwa's direct disciple, Taiwei couldn't arrive empty-handed. Looking at the surrounding snow, Taiwei thought for a moment, and then the Purple Gold Pill floated out, formed by the convergence of spiritual energy in the Celestial Furnace.

The icy spring air and the extreme cold air intertwined and converged. Taiwei pointed his left hand towards the sky, and strands of Taiyin moonlight fell down. Purple-gold Dao light floated out from the purple-gold pill. Taiwei clenched his hands, and a hollowed-out ice crystal pill slowly fell in front of Qingnu.

"I see that you mainly cultivate the Taiyin Dao and the Ancient Yin Dao, so this Taiyin Moon Soul Pill should be of some help to you. Please accept it."

Looking at the radiant elixir before her, Qingnu bowed respectfully to Taiwei.

A sixth-grade Golden Core is equivalent to a high-level spiritual treasure. This Taiyin Moon Soul Pill can greatly enhance his understanding of the Taiyin Dao, making it extremely precious. Only now did Qing Nu understand why her master had told her that her opportunity was about to arrive.

Taiwei and Qingnu entered the Xuanyin Palace. Taiwei sat in the main seat and looked at Qingnu, who was sitting below him, and said, "I have come here to ask you something. As the lord of the far west, do you know where Taotie is?"

"One of the Four Fiends, a ferocious beast from the West?"

Qingnu looked at Taiwei, her delicate brows furrowed, and she nodded: "Although Taotie's cultivation level far surpasses mine, as the lord of the far west, I can still keep track of its movements."

"However, the strength of the Taotie should not be underestimated. Not long ago, a powerful Taiyi realm expert from the far west, Guangti, fought a great battle with the Taotie for some reason. In the end, Guangti couldn't even escape and was skinned alive by the Taotie. Uncle-Master, why are you looking for that ferocious beast?"

"A cultivator at the Taiyi realm couldn't even escape? He's stronger than I imagined."

As Taiwei listened to Qingnu's account, he frowned. His true strength was still far inferior to that of Fuxi, Nuwa, and others. In addition, he did not possess any supreme treasures of the Great Void. If Taotie's strength was truly comparable to those top-tier beings, he might not be able to defeat Taotie.

"But since I'm already here, I can't just leave empty-handed. I should investigate further."

Taiwei pondered for a moment, then had Qingnu tell him the exact location of Taotie. Taotie was related to the birth of the White Tiger Sacred Beast, and he would have to face this ferocious beast sooner or later.

"The Taotie is located in the Western Rong Domain in the far west. For some reason, even when the Taotie goes out to hunt for prey, it will return to the desolate western wilderness after the hunt is over. It seems that there is something of vital importance to it in the desolate wilderness."

"I originally wanted to go and investigate, but due to the Taotie's strength, I was no match for it. So, no one has been able to figure out what's in the innermost part of the Wilderness Domain."

"The Western Rong Region, huh? It seems I need to make some preparations."

When Taiwei heard the name Xirong Domain, his brows furrowed noticeably. He had also heard of the Four Extremes and Four Domains of the Primordial World, which were originally places where the turbid energy of creation accumulated.

Then, the power of Heaven evolved, and these primordial turbid energies gave rise to the ferocious beast race. Although they lacked intelligence, the ferocious beast race was no weaker than any of the five royal races.

In addition, the four ferocious beasts, who are the lords of the four directions of ferocious beasts, are so powerful that even Taiwei would have to be wary of them. At the very least, if Taotie and several other ferocious beast lords at the Taiyi realm joined forces, Taiwei might not even be able to escape.

"Before heading to the Western Rong Domain, I need to make some preparations in your Great Snow Mountain." Taiwei said to Qingnu, then pointed his finger, and countless bright characters appeared on the Taiyin Moon Soul Pill that Qingnu was playing with.

This is the "Nine Yin Lunar Phases Revolving Diagram," a monumental work of heaven and earth that I created at the very beginning of creation by observing the Taiyin Star and refining the true meaning of the Taiyin Great Dao. Consider it my reward for temporarily residing on this snowy mountain of yours.

One bright moon after another rises from the Taiyin Moon Soul Elixir, each phase of the moon revealing a different true meaning of the Taiyin Great Dao. This scroll, "Nine Yin Moon Phase Revolving Diagram," is the foundational Great Dao that was intentionally cultivated when the foundational Great Dao of Taiwei was not yet established.

The "Nine Yin Lunar Phases Revolving Diagram" was a major book created by Taiwei himself at that time. Although Taiwei later focused on cultivating the Heavenly Dao and abandoned the Great Dao of Taiyin, in terms of his understanding of the Great Dao of Taiyin, Taiwei was still far ahead of many top-level experts in the entire prehistoric world.

Looking at Qingnu, who was comprehending the Great Dao of Taiyin, Taiwei frowned: "You should focus on the Great Dao of Xuanyin as your foundation. As for the Great Dao of Taiyin, you can cultivate it as a secondary path."

"The origins of the Taiyin Star are gathering, and it is likely that a Taiyin Star Lord is being conceived. That person is the true one whom Heaven and Earth favor, and is destined to become the Lord of the Taiyin Great Dao in the future."

"Although your foundation and resources are strong, you are still a step weaker than that person. Besides, you are now considered a person of the divine path, so it would be best to avoid the Taiyin Dao."
