Primordial Era: I am the Supreme Being of Reincarnation

Chapter 181 Entering the Underworld with Houtu, Awakening Her Mission

She personally escorted Nuwa out of the Samsara Mountain, paused for a moment, and turned to look at Su Chen.

"Fellow Daoist, please come visit my Jade Qiong Immortal Abode when you have time. I will certainly welcome you with open arms."

"good!"

Seeing the sincerity in Nuwa's beautiful phoenix eyes, Su Chen smiled and nodded in agreement.

See you next time.

It is highly likely that she has already realized the opportunity to attain enlightenment and is asking me for the Nine Heavens Breath Soil and the Three Lights Divine Water needed to create humans from clay.

Su Chen only hoped that she could persist in pursuing the path of "Slaying the Three Corpses" to attain enlightenment, and that the creation of humans from clay could be postponed as much as possible.

Back to the lounge area.

Houtu smiled at Su Chen, then summoned dozens of innate spiritual treasures from her sea of ​​consciousness, each radiating rich innate spiritual energy and divine light of the Great Dao.

The disciples present were all amazed.

"Fellow Daoist, these innate spiritual treasures are useless to my Wu Clan, so I'm giving them to you to comprehend the Great Dao and perfect your own 'Dao'!"

Hongjun has now successfully sacrificed himself to merge with the Dao and become the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao.

The Great Dao retreated into chaos, and the Heavenly Dao established three thousand "Heavenly Dao Rules" that will soon fill the primordial world.

For ordinary Great Luo Immortals or Primordial Golden Immortals to persist on the path of comprehending the laws of the Great Dao, the only way is to comprehend the laws of the Great Dao contained within innate spiritual treasures.

"good!"

"Then thank you very much, fellow Daoist!"

Su Chen didn't stand on ceremony with Houtu, after all, she was a natural ally of his, and as the Lord of the Earthly Path, she also had to cultivate the innate deities of the Earthly Path.

So he had a sudden thought and scanned the seventy-eight innate spiritual treasures of different grades with his divine sense, including seven top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

There are fifteen top-grade innate spiritual treasures, twenty-three mid-grade innate spiritual treasures, and thirty-three low-grade innate spiritual treasures.

"call out!"

At this time.

The superior-grade innate spiritual treasure within his own sea of ​​consciousness trembled slightly, then actively attracted to a magical treasure shaped like a mountain and river, unleashing a powerful spatial divine light.

"So this magical artifact is Tianya!"

Though seemingly worlds apart, they gradually merged, evolving into a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

At this moment.

Seeing this scene before him, Su Chen's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of reminiscence.

It was precisely because he had obtained the power that he had enough confidence to plan the Dragon-Han Calamity and the struggle between the demonic path, and even once escaped from the hands of a powerful Great Luo Demon.

When Houtu saw Su Chen showing a rare look of reminiscence, she remembered what Ao Sheng and Bai Miaomiao had told her about his experiences.

that time.

Because Su Chen was too weak, even though he was born and transformed before all the other innate saints, he was still addressed as a senior.

When faced with setbacks and difficulties, he remained low-key and patient, forging ahead step by step, and finally earned the prestigious title of "the strongest person below the saint".

Houtu could not imagine how much suffering he had endured and how many setbacks he had encountered in his humble beginnings.

Just as Houtu was about to say something to Su Chen, Su Chen put all the innate spiritual treasures into his sea of ​​consciousness, then turned to look at her seriously.

Seeing the tender and loving look in her eyes, Su Chen felt a slight tremor in his heart.

"Fellow Daoist, what's going on?"

Houtu came to her senses, and a gentle smile appeared on her flawless face. Combined with her pure eyes, it seemed to be able to soothe the soul and reach the heart.

"Fellow Daoist, we are so grateful to have you all these years!"

When she encounters difficulties, she can rely on her many older brothers and Sister Xuanming, and even ask Su Chen for help.

But what about him?

When he encounters difficulties, who can he turn to?

For countless eons, Su Chen has been quietly laying out the secrets of the underground world. It seems that I have never truly helped him, and I am truly ashamed of being called a "fellow traveler".

"Fellow Daoist, you're too kind. I also have my own mission and responsibilities!"

Su Chen smiled.

He gestured for Meng Yaoyao to pour him a full glass of spirit wine and raised his glass to her.

Houtu, after being reminded by herself, realized that her "Dao" was in the Earthly Path, but she has not yet awakened to her mission as the "Lord of the Earthly Path".

As the "Lord of Reincarnation" of the Underground Path, he made arrangements for the Underground Path in advance, not only for her, but also for himself, and even for all living beings in the Underground Path.

not to mention.

Houtu has always been an asset to him.

He has been silently supporting me since the time of the Eastern King's Celestial Court.

Now, she has gone so far as to bring out the treasures of the Wu Clan accumulated over tens of millions of years and entrust all the innate spiritual treasures to me, which is enough to prove her trust and support for me.

"This cup is a toast to my fellow Daoist!"

Houtu raised her cup, gently touched it with Su Chen's, then raised her smooth, jade-like neck and drank it all in one gulp.

After putting down the wine glass.

The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

A tacit understanding and other atmosphere lingered in their hearts.

"Fellow Daoist, now that Hongjun has successfully sacrificed himself to merge with the Dao and has officially become the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao, the Great Dao of the Primordial World has retreated into seclusion, which has put our Wu Clan under certain suppression."

"Even for us ancestral witches, the difficulty of attaining enlightenment through physical means has increased countless times. I wonder if you have any good solutions?"

Houtu smiled as she looked at Su Chen, her lips parted slightly, her eyes filled with gentleness and trust.

"Fellow Daoist, the solution lies in the 'tunnel,' and also in you and me."

Su Chen stated it directly.

"When will that 'tunnel' finally come into being?"

Seeing Houtu's inquisitive eyes, Su Chen decided to take her into the underworld so that she, the future ruler of the underworld, could fully awaken to her mission.

The earlier the tunnel was created, the more confident the individual would be in controlling their own destiny and changing the course of the primordial world.

"Fellow Daoist, let me take you to the Underworld for a look!"

what?

Hearing Su Chen's words.

Houtu was stunned.

Can one enter the underworld before the underground passage has even been formed?

…………

Make proper arrangements for your dojo.

Su Chen, along with Hou Tu, headed directly towards the Blood Sea, traversing through dimensions of time and space.

When we arrived above the sea of ​​blood.

When Houtu saw the countless lingering souls of the dead wailing and lamenting, she was deeply moved by their gentle and kind nature and vaguely realized her own mission.

"Whoosh!"

At this time.

A spacetime passage opened within the sea of ​​blood, and a young man in blood-red robes emerged. He had red lips and white teeth, exuded a murderous aura, and carried the Yuan Tu and A Bi swords on his back. He was none other than the Lord of the Blood Sea—Ming He!

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Su Chen!"

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Houtu!"

Ever since Su Chen revealed his 'Dao' to be in the Earthly Path millions of years ago, Styx has been trying to comprehend the Blood Sea, seeking his own mission and opportunity.

However, since no tunnel was ever built, he gained very little.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Styx!"

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Styx!"

After exchanging greetings, the two were invited into the main hall of the Daoist temple by the Styx River.

Same as before.

The Styx Palace is magnificent and imposing, with a natural and ancient charm.

He did not accept any children.

He personally served the finest liquor and brewed the most exquisite tea, displaying great poise and sincerity.

"Buzz!"

Su Chen continued to activate the Chaos Pearl, shielding himself from all heavenly secrets.

Houtu sensed the immense power of the Great Dao emanating from the Chaos Pearl, as well as the fundamental rules contained within the terrifying Primordial Purple Qi, and immediately understood the true nature of this supreme treasure.

"I never expected that this legendary Chaos Treasure would be in your hands, fellow Daoist! Congratulations!"

She felt genuinely happy.

Because the Chaos Pearl is one of the things that escaped from the Great Dao, even the Father God Pangu has always wanted to find it but could not.

With Su Chen obtaining this supreme treasure, he will have a much better chance of defeating the Heavenly Dao in the future.

"Fellow Daoists, have you come here because the Underground Path is about to be revealed?"

Styx looked at Su Chen, his expression somewhat excited.

Once the underground passage is revealed, wouldn't I have the opportunity to attain the Primordial Dao?

"The reason I came here with fellow Daoist Houtu is indeed for the Earthly Path, but when the Earthly Path will be born depends on whether 'He' has been fully conceived."

Su Chen picked up the immortal artifact wine cup, lightly clinked it against his, and then took a sip.

"I wonder what Fellow Daoist Houtu's mission is in the underground realm?"

Styx looked at Houtu with a hint of affection on his face.

As a divine being born from the impure blood of Pangu's umbilical cord, he can also be called a descendant of Pangu, and is naturally close to the ancestral witches born from the essence and blood of Pangu.

Now that we know that Houtu's "Dao" is also in the Earthly Path, it makes us feel even closer to her.

"Fellow Daoist Houtu, she is the future Lord of the Earthly Dao!"

Swish!

Hearing Su Chen's words.

Houtu and Styx were suddenly shocked, their expressions filled with astonishment.

Lord of the Underground?

To wield such power—that's just too incredible!

Even Houtu herself found it hard to believe, given that she hadn't yet awakened to her own mission.

To know.

As the first sage to create the primordial world, Hongjun could only be the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao.

The true Lord of the Earth is far, far stronger than the representative of the Heavenly Dao!

after all.

What qualifications does a mere spokesperson have to compare with the true ruler of Heaven, Earth, and Man?

After they came to their senses, Su Chen put down the immortal artifact wine cup in his hand.

"Fellow Daoist, next I will take Fellow Daoist Houtu into the Underworld to awaken her mission and see if we can bring forth the Underworld Dao ahead of schedule!"

The last time I entered the Underworld, I integrated my natal treasure, the Sixteenth-Grade Reincarnation Purple Lotus, into the Underworld to help perfect the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

This time I came.

Su Chen took Houtu into the Underworld to see if she, as the Lord of the Underworld, would find more ways to perfect the origin of the Underworld after awakening her mission.

As long as the tunnel can be revealed as soon as possible, Su Chen is willing to pay any price for it!

"Wishing you both a safe journey!"

Styx rose and personally saw him off.

He longed for the Path to be born soon, so that he could awaken his mission and attain the Great Luo of Primordial Chaos through the Path!

"Whoosh~ Whoosh!"

Su Chen activated the Chaos Pearl, leading Hou Tu towards the bottom of the Blood Sea.

The deeper they went, the more terrifying the bloodthirsty aura became, and the stronger the sense of intimacy emanating from the tunnel became. This excited Houtu, but also made her feel a little uneasy.

The two drew closer, and Su Chen could sense her thoughts, so he smiled and looked at Houtu.

"Don't worry, I've got everything covered!"

"Um!"

Seeing Su Chen's confident and warm smile, Houtu nodded gently, feeling at peace.

Not long after.

The two saw a world devoid of color, blocked by an incredibly powerful 'world barrier,' radiating an aura of supreme, ancient grandeur and intimacy.

"Is this the underworld?"

At this moment.

Houtu's gentle and pure eyes burst forth with boundless light, and the terrifying source of the Great Dao emanated from her body, as if she were about to completely merge with the underground passage at any moment.
